Yulu's mother entered the house with load-bearing steps, and before she could put down the bag on her shoulder and saw someone in the house, she looked into the inner room.

After a few seconds of eye contact with all of us, Yulu's mother's tired face began to disappear, and she smiled at us in the back room with a smile: "Yo, it's the Three Musketeers here!" She said as she unloaded the bag from her shoulder.

"Hello aunt," we said hello in unison

After a short greeting, Yulu's mother insisted on cooking a meal for us, saying that it was difficult for us Three Musketeers to come to the house as guests, so we had to try our own craftsmanship.

I noticed the time on the wall. There are eleven o'clock in five minutes, and if you don't go home, you and Wang Qiu will have to be invited back, which is not pleasant.

"It's not too early, I have to get up early tomorrow morning to work, and it will disturb my uncle's rest so late, my aunt, you're tired when you just came back, so let's hurry up and rest, we'll come back tomorrow."

Wang Qiu opened his mouth very interestingly, and put away the stool after speaking, this kid really has a set of facing the opposite sex, regardless of his aunt's repeated persuasion, the two of us stood up and began to take care of it.

My aunt saw that it didn't hurt to persuade her, and it was really too late, so she didn't stay any longer. Let Xiongzi go back to sleep, send us to the side of the road with a flashlight, and when leaving, I specially told me that we must come early next time, so that we can have a chance to taste our own craft.

Wang Qiu said again and again, but the soles of his feet took three steps and two steps, and he pulled me and ran.

"You say...... Why do you think this Yulu mother looks so good? The guy was out of breath.

In the dark night, I glanced at Wang Qiu, "Who don't you look good?" "I was already running out of breath, and I didn't want to pay attention to Wang Qiu when I heard Wang Qiu ask some inconsequential questions.

"I said, are you sick? Honestly, do you like men? You have to admit that others are beautiful, you have to learn to appreciate it, a day is like a piece of wood, what is the point? ”

I don't answer anymore, I don't even look at him, Yulu's mother is not very old, and her appearance can be regarded as one of the best in the village, when she was young, she was not married and often people came to the door to propose marriage, of course, it was indispensable to the entanglement of the ruffians and hooligans in the village, fortunately, I found Yulu's father, a famous strong man in the village, this is considered to be calmed down and gave birth to Huzi and Yulu, I thought that life would gradually get better, but I didn't think that Huzi had become a stumbling block in the family, and now my husband is seriously ill is really a bit worse. Thinking of this, I can't help but feel a little sympathy for this woman.

"I heard my dad say that people who often kill people are unlucky, and they look at their bodies on weekdays with hard bones and a posture of a tiger going down the mountain, but once they get seriously ill, they can..."

"Shut up!" I knew that Wang Qiu, this kid couldn't spit out any good words.

It was raining lightly, but luckily we trotted all the way, with street lights in front of us, and we were home a few steps away.

Looking back at the darkness behind me, Yulu's father's words came to my mind again, and I hope it won't be what I thought.

The lights of Yulu's house were still on, and from time to time there would be a sound of iron chains and shackles in Yulu's father's ears, and he looked out the window with a condensed face, as if he was thinking about something.

"You're in a good mood, so many cigarette butts are smoking alone?" The wife swept all the cigarette butts to the pile again, and today's business is over

"If I dare to smoke like this that day, it proves that I have recovered" twisted slightly. The unknown smile on his face was particularly stiff

"How about waiting for you to resume my testimony?" In the eyes of the spring water, Yulu's mother offered a fragrant kiss on her lover's forehead

"Mom, Mom, the rain and dew should also be kissed"

The little girl slipped in quietly again, and when she saw her mother kissing her father, she was a little jealous.

"Good...... Mom's favorite rain dew" The charm on her face immediately disappeared, replaced by a mother's kindness and love.

Yulu's mother picked up Yulu and kissed her a few times and put her next to the bed.

Along the side of the bed, Yulu crawled onto his father's chest.

As usual, rubbing his cheek against his father's beard, there was a burst of laughter, the father and daughter were laughing happily, and at last there was a cheerful laughter in the silent cabin. The outside of the room still looks cluttered, Yulu's mother started the final cleaning, and then went to take a hot shower later, and the busy day is over.

"Mom, Mom, how can Dad hold his breath and fall asleep? Ignore me. Yulu still looked innocent, blinking her big eyes and looking back at her mother who was cleaning up the room.

After being stunned for a few seconds, the jar in his hand fell to the ground, and a woman's cry pierced the silence of the night, and the sky was torn open and the cold rain was discharged.

Yulu's father died like this. The sudden death surprised everyone, and many people in the village talked about it and gossiped all over the place. I learned about it from my father when I came home from work at noon.

The elder brother had already gone to help, and Wang Qiu also took the lead. My father gave me some money to check it out, buy something to send and see if it could help, he still had important things to do, and he couldn't leave at the moment.

I didn't feel too much sadness in my heart, I just felt strange, when I met Yulu's father last night, although I felt very haggard, it didn't seem to be terminally ill, how did death come so suddenly, a strong man suddenly became bedridden and died, it must not be so simple.

I don't know what to buy when I go to the White Event, so I just don't buy it, and it feels better than anything else to hand over the money to Yulu's mother, and there is nothing more than this real thing.

On the side of the road, I saw that there were many villagers in front of Yulu's house outside Xiongzi's house, many of whom came not so much to mourn Yulu's father as to see the excitement, and there were people talking and laughing, not caring at all about the man lying inside and the woman and child who were suffering from life.

Cold-eyed through the crowd, I found the bear.

Xiong Zi sat alone on the big black stone at the door, silently bowing his head, and there were tears in the corners of his eyes that had not been erased.

"You're here" Before I could speak, Xiongzi raised his head and asked

"Hmm" I didn't know what to say as I sat aside

Xiongzi handed me a cigarette, the same pack that Yulu's father smoked for him last night.

"I ...... I don't have an uncle anymore," Xiongzi lowered his head again with tears in the corners of his eyes

I knew that Xiongzi was a person who couldn't hide his feelings, so I took out a tissue from my pocket and handed it to him.

"You say...... You say how big the rain and dew are, just ...... There is no father" tears couldn't stop flowing, he had already cried into tears.

"Yulu still has you, and us." My tone became firm, trying to comfort the bear.

"What do you see? I've never seen anyone cry! I yelled at the guys behind me, and the group quickly shut up and put on an expression of looking down on the clown.

The bear stopped crying and lit a cigarette. Presumably, no one would blame him today.

"Aunt is in the house, go and take a look, Wang Qiu and your brother are helping to make the mourning hall"

I patted the bear on the shoulder, kicked the cigarette into my pocket, and put on an indifferent face, and I walked out into the crowd again.

My aunt's whole face was a little swollen when she cried, her eyes were red and protruding, her face was lifeless, and she looked sideways to the side, and Xiao Yulu beside her didn't understand the meaning of the word "death" at all, just crying and shouting for her father in the arms of Xiongzi's mother.

"Aunt......" I said the somewhat clichéd and shoved the money into her hand.

Yulu's mother looked at me, tears slid down from the corners of her eyes again, and her repeated refusals could not match my strong arms. I was stunned for a moment when my hands touched, and although my aunt looked very haggard, she looked unusually beautiful and cold. The embellishment of tears seemed to make her even more charming.

The white face, the high nose, the red lips and big eyes, the special fragrance emitted by the body, and the feeling of touching himself between the fingers is completely like a girl in front of herself, but the girl will not have such a significant chest at this age.

In the future, this woman's house must be patronized and pestered by men, this is my first thought when I calm down, and it is also a guess that makes me uneasy.

I wanted to help my brother and Wang Qiu build a mourning hall together, but I didn't have that skill, and I didn't want to see those ruthless villagers, so I had to take a lighter and walk to the secret base behind the house alone.

Take a sharp breath, I can't stop coughing, Yulu's father smoked a lot more cigarettes than the three of them, I didn't think it was anything last night, but now I feel like my lungs are about to cough out.

"You'd better smoke this." Xiongzi came over and gave me the other half of the bag in his pocket.

"Forget it, I don't smoke much."

Leaning against the wall and began to swallow the clouds and mist, the troubles seemed to dissipate with the drifting smoke.

"Uncle's illness isn't that simple, is it?" I always felt that there must be something I didn't know about this matter, and I was with the bear behind the house, and now it is the most appropriate thing to ask.

"I didn't care about it before, but now that I think about it, it's really a little evil," the bear shuddered, and leaned against the wall.

I looked at Xiongzi and continued: "It was Wednesday, and the work at home was over, and I knew that my uncle was going to hunt when I saw where he was packing his shotgun, but I never thought that my uncle was going to Wushan to hunt." ”

Hearing the word Wushan, my back began to sweat, although I have never been to this place, but in my memory Wushan and the ancient house are their absolute forbidden area, my father has said more than once, if he and his brother step into that place half a step, it will definitely break their legs.

"My uncle was carried down by those hunters in Wushan, his clothes were ragged, and his body was full of scars. The whole person lost consciousness. We quickly called the doctor from the health center, and I didn't know why the doctor came, but I couldn't do anything about it after simply treating the wound."

"How did my uncle wake up?" I threw away the cigarette butt, thinking that the next thing Xiongzi would have said would be to the old gentleman.

Sure enough, Xiongzi's next words confirmed my thoughts.

"It's not a way for such a big uncle to lie in bed and not know whether he is alive or dead, so he was reluctant, but Xiongzi's father still gave some money and asked the hunters on the mountain to help invite the old man who guarded the tomb in the mountain.

When I heard this, I was curious and hurriedly asked, "Who is that old man?" Why do all these strange things have him? ”

Xiong Zi couldn't answer my question, and he didn't know the origin of this old man, but he knew that if anyone had a white matter, or encountered some strange and strange things, he would find this old man to solve it. There are rumors in the village that this old man can talk to the dead and have extraordinary skills, otherwise how dare he live alone on the eerie Wu Mountain.

Xiong Zi said again: "The old man didn't say anything when he came, just let everyone else go out, I secretly saw him say something to his uncle, and then fed him something, and it didn't take long for my uncle to regain consciousness, and now I think about it, I should stay with the old man for a few more days, maybe I can help my uncle get through this ghost gate." After Xiongzi finished speaking, he regretted it a little.

The heat above my head was unbearable, so the bear took me to a big locust tree and continued talking.

"After my uncle woke up, although he could speak, he was also very haggard, and his lower body was numb and he didn't feel anything, just like being paralyzed, and the doctor couldn't tell what was going on with his uncle, so he could only treat it with labor and let his uncle rest more."

"Since then, my uncle is like a lost soul, his face is haggard, his eyes are misty, and by chance, my uncle told me the secret, rather than being asked by you again and again, I should tell you yourself, but now tell you, you must not tell anyone, not even your brother, okay?"

Every time Xiongzi asks for my opinion or asks me for help, he will seem very soft, innocent, like a woman, which makes me a little unbearable, and in this respect I still prefer Wang Qiu's rude and straightforward appearance.

"When have I broken the agreement between the two of us, just say it!"

That day, my uncle heard that someone in the village wanted to buy the furs of wild animals at a high price, so he prepared to go to Wushan to try his luck and buy some wild animals at the foot of the mountain to exchange some money to subsidize the family. But I didn't expect my uncle to catch a weasel and a white snake in pursuit, and unknowingly stepped into the halfway of Wushan....."

"And then? Gone? Seeing that Xiongzi didn't talk much, I seemed a little impatient.

Xiong Zi shook his head, "No, my uncle just said this and didn't say anything more." ”
