Chapter 305: The Grave's Knowledge
On that day, Zhang Youquan did not come to our village. The next time I saw him, it was two days later. At that time, I was at the little carpenter's house, chatting with the little carpenter about making a coffin. Zhang Youquan was brought over by the village chief, stood outside the threshold, and said to me: "Little coffin, I agreed, move the grave!" ”
"Did your village chief tell you?" I crouched in place, twisted my neck, turned my head and asked.
Zhang Youquan lowered his head and did not answer.
The little carpenter asked me strangely, "Who is this?" So rude? ”
I shook my head, stood up, and signaled that he didn't need to bother.
When I walked up to Zhang Youquan's side, I obviously felt that he dodged unnaturally. I smiled and put my arm around his shoulder and said to him, "I know, you still don't believe it, but it's okay, I'll prove it to you right away!" I can let you see how that tomb affected your family at the same time, in addition to the tomb originally selected by the Li family. ”
Zhang Youquan looked at me with surprise in his eyes.
When I went out this time, I not only brought Jiang Yifeng and Liu Yunjiu, but even Tang Wei, who wanted to take the opportunity to watch the excitement, I took it with me.
Moving graves is not a trivial matter, and the old graves must not be moved until the new grave site is surveyed. Therefore, this time we did not go directly to move the grave, but first went to the site of the grave. There is no need for the Eight Immortals to follow, but there are also a lot of tools to take, bring a little more manpower, and you can take care of it more when the time comes.
Along the way, Zhang Youquan was always silent, until the car couldn't drive halfway, he beckoned everyone to get out of the car and go up with him.
In our area, there are many mountains, and most of the tombs in a village are buried on the same mountain, and this kind of mountain is called 'tomb mountain'. Almost every other distance there will be a grave with inscriptions, and as for the wild graves without names and surnames, there are so many that they can't be counted. Therefore, it is not smooth for many people to set a new burial site, and if they are not careful, they can dig up a person who was buried here earlier in the selected place.
It is precisely because of this that it is customary that many families have a large area of established burial land, called their ancestral grave, and no one else is allowed to touch it. Where people should be buried in a few generations may have been determined a few generations ago.
The Yu family is a local old household, and the location of the ancestral grave is not badly chosen. A large area of vacant land next to it can be selected as the site of two new tombs.
I walked around the boundaries of their ancestral graves, and I found that many of the stone tablets were no longer legible. Looking at the growth of the grave grass, I have always wanted to show my skills in front of Zhang Youquan, so that he can convince me, and finally found a way.
I pulled Zhang Youquan to the side, casually pointed to a grave and said to him: "This is the ancestral grave of the Yu family, have you been here before?" ”
"I've been here since I was little." I am not surprised that Zhang Youquan replied like this.
The village chief had already said that his sister had brought him up since he was a child. People here get married early, especially women, although Zhang Youquan's sister is only three years older than him, but when she got married, Zhang Youquan must have been just a teenager. Zhang Youquan, who was still a teenager at the time, was brought by his sister and brother-in-law to pay tribute, which can be regarded as reasonable.
I nodded, and asked again, "You should know what kind of person is buried in which grave, right?" ”
"I probably know, I've just heard of it." Zhang Youquan replied, with a suspicious face, "What? Little coffin? Do you want to know what's the use of this? ”
"What's the use? You'll find out in a moment. I smiled at him and continued, "Well, how about I make a bet with you?" You also saw that most of the stone tablets in this are not very good materials, and after a long time, the words on them have been spent, and you can't see anything. It's my first time here, but I only have to look at it to know who's buried underneath! Do you believe it or not? ”
Zhang Youquan immediately shook his head, "This is impossible!" Some I don't even know! ”
When he said this, I said, "You don't believe me? That's just right! Take that as a bet, I'll tell you now! If I say something wrong, I will re-engrave the monument for all the ancestors of the Yu family! With good stones, all the money is counted as my Guan Jiujiao's filial piety to the ancestors of the family, how about it? But if I win......"
"What do you want?" Zhang Youquan became vigilant.
"I don't want much, you don't have to be nervous." I patted him on the shoulder and reassured him, "If I win, I have the final say on where your family's two new graves will be, and which one will be raised and which one will be closed." ”
Zhang Youquan frowned and weighed the pros and cons, I had already squatted down and looked at the old tomb beside me.
After a while, Zhang Youquan was finally attracted by my movements, and he leaned over to me and asked, "How is it?" Do you see it? ”
I plucked a few grave grasses and looked at them, patted the soil on my hands, and nodded, "I can see it!" This is a male grave, who was sixty years old when he died, and now he is no heir. ”
Zhang Youquan's face changed, and he pulled me directly, went to a grave more than ten steps away, pointed to the grave and asked me, "Then look at this!" ”
I looked at the shape of the grave and, as before, checked the growth of the grass and the appearance of the roots, and then stood up and replied, "This is the grave of a boy who died before he reached adulthood." And, as far as I can see, hanged. As for whether he hanged himself or was hanged by someone else...... I'd rather be hanged. ”
Zhang Youquan's face changed again, and he pulled me to another grave.
"Look at this!" He pointed to the grave and said to me.
I shook my head and said, "It seems that many people in the Yu family have bad lives!" Why are so many people dying? There is no need to look at this grave, 'the hole in front of the grave mountain was poisoned', it is a suicide. Moreover, looking at the growth of this grass, I dare to conclude that the person buried here was originally an heir who passed on the incense to his room! ”
Zhang Youquan grew his mouth in shock in front of me.
In fact, he was not alone. Even the three people I brought with me now look at me with a straight look, and when they look like that, they want to empty out the things in my head immediately.
"So this time...... I guess I've won, right? I said with a smile at Zhang Youquan.
Zhang Youquan nodded stupidly, it seems that this should be really convinced.
I stopped looking at him and stepped aside to survey the site of the new grave.
He stood there for a moment, then caught up with me and asked, "How do you see that?" Teach me! ”
"Oops!" Jiang Yifeng listened, hurriedly stopped him, looked him up and down a few times, and said to him, "Now the spirit is here?" Why did you go earlier? I'll tell you! Do you understand the precedence of this preaching? How long have I been with the little coffin? You've only known him for a few days, huh? If you want to steal the teacher, you have to queue up, do you know? ”
Zhang Youquan was choked by his few words, and suddenly stopped there, not knowing what to say.
Jiang Yifeng glared at him, left him and ran to my side, keeping an eye on my movements.
I held a compass in my hand to set the direction, and when I saw him coming, I asked him to help me get the guy and prepare to fix the acupoint.
Jiang Yifeng looked reluctant, and instructed Liu Yunjiu to say: "Take the guy!" ”
Liu Yunjiu pulled Tang Wei and ran to get the guy, but Jiang Yifeng was still standing beside me, looking at it with a blank.
"What do you see? Help me! "I looked at him, inexplicably.
Jiang Yifeng stood still and asked me in a low voice, "What other abilities have you not revealed?" Teach me first, teach me? ”
"Teach you what?" I stared at the compass and urged him, "Go quickly, the sixth brother asked you for help." ”
"No! You've got to teach me! Jiang Yifeng grabbed me and didn't let go.
I glanced at him helplessly and said, "Okay, go and help him get it, and I'll teach you!" Can't I teach you by hand? ”
