2. Incense before the coffin

I was taken aback by this sudden scene, staring at my grandfather's hand, and my heart was a little hairy, isn't my grandfather already dead? How did the hand move?

Could it be that Grandpa has fallen (we mean corpse fraud there). And now the grandfather's face has become more hideous.

Grandma hurriedly used her hand to break Grandpa's hand, but she couldn't break it, and Grandpa's strength was very strong, and my wrist hurt for a while.

Grandpa, a man who is already dead, how could such a reaction suddenly occur? A chill rose behind me, and I hurriedly helped my grandmother break my grandfather's hand together.

"Grandma, don't move!"

After a while, I found that my grandfather's hand was holding it dead, and his body was still the same cold and stiff, and I immediately looked at my grandmother and said.

Grandma's face was also gloomy, and then she began to rub her grandfather's hands, which would ease her stiff muscles.

But after a long time, it still didn't have any effect, grandpa's hand was still dragging me, and I saw that my wrist seemed to start to have bruises.

Seeing this, the grandmother was also anxious, and immediately tears flowed out and slapped the grandfather in the face.

"You are an old immortal, just go by yourself, and pull the baby to do that? Don't let go yet, or I'll go down to you right now." ”

At the moment when my grandmother's voice fell, I was shocked that my grandfather's hand was released.

While my heart was full of shock, I hurriedly told my grandmother that my grandfather's hand was released, and my grandmother glanced at it and didn't say anything, so I quickly went out to change my clothes and called Mr. Liang.

I changed my clothes and went out to fetch water to wash my face.

However, when I walked to the door with the basin, I was directly in place, because I found that the whole courtyard outside the door was covered with footprints.

The footprints looked a little messy, as if someone was constantly walking back and forth, but when I looked closely, I found them a little strange, and I couldn't tell what they were.

I followed the footprints and found that they had reached the window of my room, where there were only a few footprints, as if the owner of the footprints had stood there for a long time before turning away.

And these footprints I didn't see when I opened the window before, but now they have more?

Seeing this, my heart couldn't help but feel a creepy, I slept by the window last night, and something stood at the window and watched me all night, thinking about it, I felt a chill in my back.

At this time, my grandmother who came out of the room asked me why I was stunned. I pointed to the yard and asked Grandma whose footprints they were.

Grandma's brows furrowed, she walked to my side, glanced at the yard, and then looked at it angrily: "You stupid boy, what are you talking nonsense?" Where did the footprints come from in the yard? ”

I was stunned by my grandmother's words, she couldn't see the footprints in the yard? I shook my head and put the matter behind for now, after all, it was important now.

After getting myself right, I went out directly and walked towards Mr. Liang's house, to be honest, grandpa really didn't have a backbone in this matter.

My dad works outside all the year round, and my grandmother has already informed me that I don't know when I will be home. I trotted all the way, and when I arrived at Mr. Liang's house, I explained the situation directly.

Mr. Liang's brows furrowed slightly, and he actually muttered in a low voice: "So fast? ”

Mr. Liang's words made me slightly stunned, what does Mr. Liang mean by this? He already knew that something was going to happen in our family.

But without waiting for me to ask anything, Mr. Liang directly beckoned me to wait for a while, he went to clean up his things, I nodded, and after a while, Mr. Liang came out and walked towards my house with me.

When I arrived at the gate of my yard, Mr. Liang suddenly paused, and I saw Mr. Liang's eyes staring at the courtyard, his eyes full of solemnity.

There was no expression on the somewhat wrinkled face, and I hurriedly asked Mr. Liang what was wrong? Mr. Liang shook his head and said to me.

"Follow in my footsteps for a moment, don't make a mistake."

I was shocked when I heard this, how do I feel that Mr. Liang saw the footprints in the yard? But at this moment, Mr. Liang was startled and walked forward, and I followed behind Mr. Liang.

Sure enough, I found that the place where Mr. Liang walked was exactly where there were no strange footprints. I was more sure of what I was thinking.

Mr. Liang rushed straight into his grandfather's room, and when Mr. Liang saw his grandfather, who had been cleaned up, and his grandfather's hideous death, Mr. Liang spoke directly.

"You can't wear it like that, old sister-in-law, what about the clothes?"

After speaking, Mr. Liang turned his head and asked his grandmother, making his grandmother stunned, and his grandmother asked Mr. Liang what kind of clothes he was?

Mr. Liang then said: "The shroud, the shroud for the child." ”

I hurriedly reacted, saying that the shroud was in my room, and Mr. Liang asked me to hurry up and get it, I quickly nodded and walked out of the room, but my heart was full of endless puzzlement.

How do I feel that Mr. Liang seems to know everything, and grandpa has an accident, and the first thing my grandma asked me to find was not Mr. Yin and Yang who buried people in a fixed hole, but Mr. Liang, a tailor?

In confusion, I brought the strange shroud and handed it to Mr. Liang, and Mr. Liang hurriedly helped me and my grandmother to take off my grandfather's shroud and wear it.

If I was puzzled before, then now I don't understand what Mr. Liang wants to do at all, my grandfather is seventy or eighty years old, and he has passed away at such an age, how can he wear more than ten shrouds inside and out.

"Why is the baby stunned? Hurry over and help. ”

Grandma's voice came, and I hurriedly went up to help after reacting, and changed the shroud to my grandfather, and then Mr. Liang came to the front of my grandfather, covering my grandfather's eyes with one hand, and I saw Mr. Liang's mouth move, as if he said something.

When Mr. Liang let go of his hand, I found that my grandfather's eyes were closed with his eyes open.

At this time, Mr. Liang found yellow paper and covered his grandfather's face, I know that this is called covering the face of the corpse, not letting the deceased see the world again, avoiding nostalgia, and refusing to leave.

After doing it, Mr. Liang turned his head and told his grandmother that it was time to set off the firecrackers, and the firecrackers were not necessarily happy.

After a while, the people in the village came, and everyone was a little difficult to accept the death of their grandfather, but they still helped.

Putting my grandfather in the coffin, at this time, I found that the footprints in the yard were still there, but the people who came didn't seem to find them one by one, and those footprints were so conspicuous in the yard that people walking back and forth couldn't get rid of those footprints.

"Baby, can you see those things?"

Suddenly, a low voice came from behind me, startling me, and I turned to see Mr. Liang standing behind me.

I nodded, I don't need to ask to know, the things that Mr. Liang said are naturally footprints in the yard, and I also asked Mr. Liang at this time, why can't they see it?

Mr. Liang let out a long breath and said, "There are some things that not everyone can see. ”

I asked Mr. Liang again, who left these footprints? Mr. Liang shook his head and said, who knows? Then, Mr. Liang suddenly asked me to show him my hand, as if it was deliberately changing the subject.

Without waiting for me to speak, Mr. Liang directly grabbed my right hand, and on my wrist, the bruised mark that was grabbed by my grandfather.

But Mr. Liang was staring at the bruised mark at the moment, and his brows were furrowed into Sichuan characters.

Looking at Mr. Liang's appearance, I asked Mr. Liang what was wrong? Mr. Liang shook his head and said that he would accompany me to the wake tonight, hoping that something would not go wrong.

In the evening, Mr. Liang asked his grandmother to arrange for everyone to go home, and even his grandmother had to go to someone else's house to sleep, and although everyone was very strange, they finally did so.

After seeing everyone leave, Mr. Liang found a stool and sat in the hall, facing the door, holding a willow branch found during the day in his hand, and Mr. Liang instructed me to guard my grandfather's coffin, so that I could take care of my grandfather's incense in front of the coffin and the soul-attracting lamp.

The lamp cannot be extinguished, and the incense cannot be broken.

Looking at Mr. Liang's position, I became a little uneasy inexplicably, until the middle of the night, I felt a little sleepy, I shook my head, now I can't go wrong.

I saw that the three sticks of incense in front of my grandfather's coffin were almost finished, so I stepped forward to renew them, however, at the moment when I just inserted the three sticks of incense, two of the pillars were broken.

My heart tightened when I saw this scene, and just as I was about to tell Mr. Liang, there was a sudden loud bang outside.
