It turned out that the leaders of the township came to worship after learning the news of Old Man Zhao's death. Before leaving, I solemnly asked Village Chief Zhao to cremate Old Man Zhao! Set an example for the people in the village and kill the crooked tendencies in the village! Combat the superstition here!

In this way, Village Chief Zhao was completely embarrassed!

On the one hand, it is his father's last words, and on the other hand, his future! This made Village Chief Zhao have no choice!

After hesitating again and again, Village Chief Zhao decided to arrange for Old Man Zhao to be cremated!

Village Chief Zhao thought in his heart, although he promised his father to be buried. But death is like a lamp going out! Whether he is cremated or buried, the old man will not know. In this case, it is better to focus on your career! If there are achievements in the future, it can be regarded as the glory of the ancestors!

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became!

Finally, I couldn't help but tell everyone about this idea.

Hearing Village Chief Zhao's words, everyone was silent at that time!

As I said before, everyone has more or less opinions and rejections about cremation! However, for the sake of the other party being the village head, no one opened this mouth.

They didn't dare to speak, but my grandfather didn't care! Due to Grandpa's rich family background, our family was the richest man in ten miles and eight towns at that time!

Grandpa sternly said to Village Chief Zhao: "Since you have already agreed to your father's burial." Why do you want to go back on it? You must know that your father refused to swallow this last breath for the sake of burial before he died. You also promised it yourself. Your father's spirit will remain in this room for three days of the vigil. If you change your mind suddenly, the consequences can be very serious! Aren't you afraid that your father will get up and reason with you? Do you not even want your own father in order to be a village chief? ”

"You ......"

Village Chief Zhao was furious when my grandfather said it in front of so many people! He couldn't help but shout angrily: "Qiao Lao Liu, what are you?" Don't think that you can show off your power in front of me with a few stinky money at home! I'm telling you, it's our family's business. I'm set for this cremation! Who dare to care about me? ”

After speaking, he waved his sleeves and left!

Seeing that looking for the village chief was so stubborn, grandpa also felt helpless!

In the end, I couldn't help but add loudly: "No matter what you do, remember, don't burn paper tonight!" ”

After saying this, Grandpa could only shake his head vigorously and left.

It's also providence! Grandpa didn't like these ghosts and gods since he was a child. No matter how grandpa Tai passes on his art, in the end, he is just a half-ass. If Grandpa Tai had been at home at that time, I'm afraid there would have been no tragedy later!

As if to confirm what Grandpa said, on the same night, something happened at Village Chief Zhao's house!

Due to the identity of Village Chief Zhao, there are naturally many people who want to take this opportunity to slap him! Of course, there will be many people here to accompany Village Chief Zhao to keep vigil!

People gathered in groups to gossip. There were more than 20 of them! Thanks to Village Chief Zhao, their house is big, otherwise there would really be no place to stay!

As for Village Chief Zhao, he took his daughter-in-law and six-year-old son to kneel in front of Old Man Zhao's spirit and burned paper one after another. Although grandpa advised them not to burn paper during the day. However, with Village Chief Zhao's stubborn temper, how could he listen to it?

At that time, in the countryside, few family members could afford coffins. Unless it is rich and rich, the death of a person with a head and face is barely extravagant! Even Village Chief Zhao's family doesn't have the financial resources!

Old Man Zhao's body was just a large wooden plank about one person, covered with a straw mat.

The first half of the night was peaceful! However, when the time had just reached twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, the big yellow dog tied to the yard by Village Chief Zhao and his family began to bark desperately! It's like crazy!

In rural areas, it is normal for dogs to bark in the middle of the night. The passing of passers-by, the barking of feral cats, or even the slight noise of rats can alert them! But there has never been a time to bark so wildly as tonight!

The more than twenty adults in the room, including more than a dozen able-bodied men, all felt fear at this moment!

The barking of the big yellow dog made them feel panicked! It was as if a biting cold had come out of the depths of their hearts. Some people even started to tremble!

There is a rumor circulating in the village that animals are spiritual! Especially if you have a cat or dog at home! Their eyes, unlike the human eye, can see things that are not visible to the human eye.

Thinking about what Grandpa said during the day today, all the people in the room set their eyes on Old Man Zhao's body!

At this moment, Village Chief Zhao was also a little scared! However, after all, it was his father who died, even if he was wrong, his old man would not really harm himself!

But before he could open his mouth to comfort everyone! The big iron gate that was originally open outside the courtyard suddenly slammed shut.

It sounded like a thunderbolt! It scared the people in the room almost to the point of hell! Some of the more timid women even couldn't help but sob. The bold ones are all tightly clinging to each other, and they don't even dare to gasp.

Village Chief Zhao can become the head of a village, and he can suppress so many people in the village, so naturally he is also a little bloody.

He raised his voice and said loudly, "What the hell, what are you panicking about?" Didn't a gust of wind blow the door shut? As for being scared like this? ”

Hearing Village Chief Zhao say this, everyone looked at each other, still leaning together motionlessly!

In fact, even he couldn't believe Village Chief Zhao's words! The leaves outside haven't even moved, so how could it be windy?

At this moment, the son of Village Chief Zhao suddenly said loudly: "Dad, my grandfather has gotten up to eat!" ”

Hearing this sentence made Village Chief Zhao's scalp numb! He hurriedly turned his head to look, and found that his father was still lying quietly on the plank, but the straw mat covering his body did not know when it was lifted. There were still a few grains of rice stuck to the old man's face. And the three bowls of inverted rice on the table were only three empty bowls full of rice grains at this time!

Seeing this scene, the people who came to accompany the vigil let out heart-rending screams one by one! They rushed out to the door. But the moment they opened the door, everyone froze!

I saw that the big yellow dog who was originally chained to the yard didn't know when he had broken free from the chains, and at this moment he was standing in front of the door with bloody eyes and grinning at everyone. It seems that there is a possibility of an attack at any time!

The crowd screamed again and slammed the door shut.

Seeing that everyone ran back again, Village Chief Zhao understood that something must have happened outside!

He couldn't help but shout loudly: "Go find Qiao Lao Liu!" Go find Joe Lao Liu! ”

Although he shouted loudly, no one listened to him anymore! They all stood in place, silent, staring straight behind Village Chief Zhao with their eyes. There was terror in his eyes!

Village Chief Zhao was taken aback by this situation! I couldn't help but shiver in place! An extremely cold feeling hit his heart! Let his back be steaming hard!

He slowly turned his head, and at first glance, he saw his father, Old Man Zhao, who had sat up from the plank at some point. Holding the candles and incense on the offering table with both hands, he kept putting them into his mouth. I almost swallowed it without chewing it!

Village Chief Zhao was immediately frightened and sat on the ground!

And his daughter-in-law had already fainted with fright!

As the saying goes, you can't come back to life after you die! Now that Old Man Zhao has been resurrected, it can only be said that he is no longer human!

Watching Old Man Zhao gulp down food, everyone felt an unprecedented panic!

At this moment, the son of Village Chief Zhao, who had been kneeling on the ground, suddenly said loudly: "Great! Grandpa has finally woken up! ”

Then, without waiting for everyone to react, he ran to Old Man Zhao.

This old man Zhao usually likes this grandson the most, and it is no wonder that the son of Village Chief Zhao is not afraid of him at all!

Everyone was taken aback by the scene in front of them!

Village Chief Zhao exclaimed even more in surprise, and hurriedly ran over to drag his son. Although his heart was full of fear, at this critical moment, fatherly love replaced everything!

Just when Village Chief Zhao was about to hold his son in his arms, Old Man Zhao suddenly roared angrily, and quickly grabbed Village Chief Zhao with both hands.

At this time, it was too late for Village Chief Zhao to hide! Before he could react, Old Man Zhao had already hugged him tightly.

Village Chief Zhao only felt that the sky was spinning for a while, and then, he directly "pounced" with Old Man Zhao, and fell to the ground at the same time, unconscious!

At the same time, the big yellow dog standing outside also screamed miserably, and fell to the ground with twitching limbs. He was still foaming at the mouth.

Without the threat of the big yellow dog, everyone dispersed in a hurry! They all ran out of the house. Some ran straight back to the house, and some ran to find my grandfather!

By the time my grandfather knew the news had arrived, it was all over!

On the ground of Village Chief Zhao's house lay their family of four. The four of them hugged each other and fell to the ground in such a strange posture, motionless!

Grandpa walked over and touched their bodies, but there was no sign of any life. Even if they were already stiffly entangled, even if two big men with big shoulders and round waists worked together, they didn't break them apart!
