Chapter 5 Purpose
In the form of tickling, a mysterious totem on the back can appear, and my grandfather gave me a dream at that time that he wanted me to help him tickle. Is it just for me to see this mysterious totem?
I asked my dad to see it, and he was also very curious, he stared at the black lotus pattern and thought about something, and after a while he said to me, "Sanliang, come and give me your mobile phone." ”
I didn't know what was going on, he took my mobile phone, took a picture of the tattoo on my grandfather's back, and then, he put on the Tang costume for my grandfather and pulled me to the yard, and when he was about to set off to bury my grandfather, he suddenly didn't go, and when he arrived in the yard, he handed me a cigarette and said: "Your grandfather's corpse." Not suitable for burial, cremation of it. ”
"Huh?" I was surprised, in those years, when the wind was tight, the country implemented funeral reform, and all the deceased people had to be cremated, but some of the old people in the countryside thought that there was no way to reincarnate if the body was burned, and the soul would be scattered once the body was destroyed, so before death, whether it was the family or the old man himself, he was unwilling to be cremated, even if he secretly buried people at night. In the past two days, the policy in this regard has been loosened, why did the father choose to cremate the grandfather at this time? Grandma's pass is a very sad pass.
"I feel that something is wrong, the relationship between your grandfather's death and that email, don't forget, I am He Zhenren's real apprentice, and your grandfather can only be regarded as my apprentice." My dad said.
"What exactly did you come up with?" I asked.
"At first glance at this email, your first impression, including us, is that if your grandfather is not buried in his way, there will be unexpected changes, and if the corpse changes, it is a fraudulent corpse. But don't forget that I learned this, your grandfather died peacefully without the slightest resentment, and there is no feng shui bureau in Suotou Village that can deceive corpses, so it is impossible to deceive corpses, which means that in fact, that email is just scaring us, yes, it is scaring us. My dad mused.
"Scare us? Why scare us, is it enmity with us? Even if there is a grudge, you won't use this to scare. I asked.
"It's to scare, when you can't see a person's purpose clearly. It depends on what effect he has achieved, the effect is his purpose, this is what your grandfather has been teaching me, then let's go to this email, he asked your grandfather, who should have been buried in three days, to stay in our house for seven days, this is his purpose, as for not using a coffin, not wearing a shroud, that is just an additional condition that makes us feel credible. Daddy said.
I don't know much about what I'm listening to. I just looked at my dad and hoped he would give me a clear answer.
"He wants your grandfather's body, and it takes seven days for this person to get to the lock village, so he sent such an email, asking us not to bury your grandfather within seven days, I had such a guess at the beginning, but I don't understand what the purpose of this person is, when I saw this tattoo on your grandfather's back, I understood, this is what he wanted." Daddy said.
"When you say that, it really seems like this, but I don't understand, that person just wants to see the lotus tattoo on my grandfather's back? What does this tattoo represent? I asked.
"This may be a map, three or two, we have to hurry, there may be no time, if someone from Linjiazhuang comes tomorrow, it proves my guess." But we can't wait, go now. My dad said. As he spoke, he became eager.
"But grandma had a hard time. How could she possibly let us burn Grandpa. "I was also very nervous when my dad told me. Commander-in-chief paddled wildly.
"It's okay, tell her we're going to bury people, you squat in the ground for a few hours and come back, I'll go to the crematorium." Dad said, and after saying that, the two of us carried my grandfather's body, wrapped it in a quilt and carried it onto the tricycle.
My grandmother and my mother knelt in the yard and burned paper money to see off my grandfather, and I felt very uncomfortable when I saw it, and it was difficult for me to understand why that simple grandfather would have so many secrets when he died.
We went to the village together, I went into the crops, and my father drove to the village in a tricycle, and I squatted on the side of the road for two hours before I got home, and it was almost dawn, and my grandmother saw me and asked me, "Where is your father?" ”
"He went to the countryside for some trouble, so he drove a tricycle by the way, saying that he was buying some flowers and planting something." I said. Grandma didn't say anything, and I went into my room, and for the first time I lied to my grandma, it was at such a big deal, and my heart was beating fast.
My wife called me after making breakfast and asked me if I was sleepy, where was my sleepiness? I got up to eat, and before the meal was finished, Huzi came to my house, and the first thing he said when he saw me was: "Why is Uncle Aiguo's tricycle parked at the intersection of Maliandian?" ”
I immediately stood up, swallowed the porridge and asked, "What?!" ”
"Someone else has said that they have met. I'll come to see if Uncle Aiguo is at home. Huzi said.
I dropped the dishes and chopsticks, and immediately followed Huzi out of the door, he rode a motorcycle to carry me and was scolded by me for being slow, he didn't know what was going on, but how did I explain it to him? My dad was worried that the mysterious man would come and take my grandfather to the cremation at dawn, but his tricycle was found on the road, what should I think about this? I can only think that something happened to him halfway through.
When I arrived at the place, I found a few cars, it was Zhao Baye, who was now in the middle of the day in Suotou Village, he saw me and greeted me: "Santael, your dad went out in the morning?" ”
"Yes, he said to buy some flower seeds." I said.
"I passed by and saw this three-wheeled car on the side of the road, and it looked just like his. Could it be that you have encountered a robbery? Zhao Baye said.
"You have a car, drive to find my dad!" I said, after finishing speaking, I got on Huzi's tricycle and urged him to drive to the township, my father must have had an accident, otherwise why is the car there and the people are not there?
I went to the township to look around and didn't find his figure, and finally I even chose to call the police when I had no choice, and the police did not file a case for less than 24 hours after I disappeared.
Just when I was about to burst into tears, suddenly the phone rang, and the caller who came to the number was my father, and I trembled and asked on the phone: "Dad?" ”
"Well, it's me, come back, your mother is cooking." He said calmly.
"Where have you been all day?!" I asked, I looked for you for a day, and you are now calling me home for dinner.
"I did a little thing, I just came back, you should come back quickly." After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone very coldly.
--I was scolded by Huzi for being a fool all the way, he said that Uncle Aiguo is such a big living person, can he get lost? Look at me in a hurry, I said you know a fart, I'm afraid that my dad will tie someone up. Huzi smiled: "Tie up Uncle Aiguo? Who else is worth money in your family besides your aunt? ”
I slapped him on the back and scolded, "Get out of your uncle!" I've liked your sister for a long time, you have to show me a good look, keep my innocent body. ”
When I got home, they were waiting for me to eat, I wanted to ask but my dad stopped me with his eyes, and after eating, I took a chance to pull him out and asked, "What the hell is going on?" ”
"Do you think Zhao Laoba really passed by and found my tricycle?" Daddy asked me rhetorically.
"You mean?" I said.
"Yes, I just found out that he was following me, so I jumped out of the car and ran away from the field, it seems that you, the 'second uncle' who stepped on your grandfather's point and came back, are really not that simple. My brother is no longer the brother I used to be. My dad said.
"Could it be that he is also for his grandfather's body? He also knew that his grandfather was not buried, this! I was amazed.
"Yes, if I guessed correctly, our every move is under the surveillance of this Zhao Baye, he even knows that we went to bury your grandfather last night, you can think about it, if we buried your grandfather at that time, then after we leave, he is very likely to dig up your grandfather's grave and steal the body, his purpose is also the map of the lotus tattoo on your grandfather's body." My dad said.
