After the master finished speaking, he lay there, picked up the wine gourd, and drank it one by one, the three of us had no choice but to go to the cemetery in the North Ridge, I was not afraid, and I felt that it was fun late at night, but now that the master is not with us, my heart suddenly became afraid.

I just walked for a while, and I arrived at a persimmon forest, far away from the persimmon forest, and I saw a few fireballs jumping and jumping there in the persimmon forest, flickering and dimming, and my heart was in my throat at that time. This is a ghost fire, we often saw it when we were children, and the persimmon forest is not a good place, where there are many stone towers, and they look like towers are built with stones. But this is not a stone pagoda in a temple, but a home for children who have died young.

At that time, the villagers were poor, and they were all delivered by midwives, which was a major cause of premature death, and the main cause of death was the four or six winds, which are now called neonatal tetanus, and the other reason was that the medical conditions were poor, and they could not afford to see a doctor, so that many children who were about the same as me did not grow up, and were buried in this wood, and the most common reason was smallpox and measles. That's all the first to raise a child. I remember singing like this, one is worried about my son's cold, and the other is worried about my son's hunger. The third is worried that his son is young, and the fourth is that his son is being bullied. Five worries about the son's illness, six worries about the son's high and low. Seven sorrowful sons have pox, and eight sorrowful sons are stupid and stupid. Nine sorrowful sons walk by the water, and ten sorrowful sons are worthy of marriage.

The persimmon forest is quite large, and it has been extended to the mass grave of Beiling, there are many legends about this place on the village, and the most legend is that there are often children crying here, so even when the persimmons on the trees are ripe in autumn, we generally do not come to pick persimmons easily.

When I walked almost to the edge of the persimmon forest, the thin monkey said behind me, "Senior brother, my scalp is tight, do you think we will ......?"

I quickly spat on the ground and said, "Bah, what are you talking about?" This broad daylight ......" As soon as I said this, a small whirlwind blew on the ground, and the whirlwind circled us, and I felt a chill on my body, and the rest of the sentence was not spoken.

At this time, the fool said: "Grandma is a bear, afraid of a bird, my father said, the silly boy sleeps on a cool kang, all by firepower, we are children, and the firepower is very strong." ”

I heard the fool say that the boy suddenly shivered, and that day when he slept on the stone slab of the pier, it was because of a soak of boy urine that he caused a big disaster. But now I can't show fear, my nickname is Daring, because of boldness, so I said: "The fool is right, what are we afraid of, the master also said, as long as you have a righteous body, you don't have to be afraid of any ghosts, let's go to the grave of the second fool, take out the wooden card, and go back to sleep." ”

As I spoke, I walked forward, the fool and the thin monkey followed, and beside the persimmon tree was the road up the mountain, and as we walked, suddenly a terrible child cried, as if in the grass beside us, and we were so frightened that we almost jumped up, and the three of us stood together. The thin monkey said, "Senior brother, did you hear the child crying?" ”

I said, "I heard, it seemed to be in the grass around us." ”

As we were talking, the cry suddenly sounded not far behind us, and the cry was very terrible, and we quickly turned to see that the place where the cry came from was a bush, and the grass in the grass was moving, like a child struggling to climb out.

The thin monkey said nervously, "Senior brother, there seems to be someone moving in the grass." ”

I said, "Nonsense, in the middle of the night, who has nothing to do with running into the mountains?" ”

The fool said, "Senior brother, maybe someone's little dead child is alive again." ”

As soon as I heard the fool say it was right, who must have thought that the child was dead, so he found someone to throw it here, at that time, throwing the child is also particular, are to let the old bachelor on the village throw, the old bachelor is hard, and there are no children and no daughters, who let him throw the child, as long as he tells him, he will carry the dung basket, put the wheat in it, go to the master's house, put the child into the dung basket, and then cover it with the wheat basket, carry the dung basket and go.

After coming back, the child's mother couldn't stand it, so she asked where the child was buried, and wanted to see it, but no matter how he asked, the old bachelor would not say a word, and directly took the things given by the main family and turned around and left.

The grass not far away was still shaking there, and we were sure that there were children there, and we thought to ourselves that when this old bachelor threw it, he didn't see if he was dead or not, and threw it here, isn't it a bit unconscionable? When I thought of this, I said to the fool and the skinny monkey, "Fool, skinny monkey, let's go and have a look." ”

The thin monkey said: "Senior brother, I think we should not go over, as the saying goes, more things are better than less things, our main thing at night is to touch the wooden card, and the master is still waiting there." ”

I said, "No, we can't see death without saving, didn't people say that saving someone's life is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter." ”

The fool said, "What is Senior Brother Futu?" ”

I said, "How do I know what it is?" Anyway, it's a good thing, let's go and have a look. ”

As I spoke, I led the way, followed by the thin monkey and the fool, and we walked slowly towards the moving grass, and as we went, we felt uneasy, and when we were about to come to the grass, suddenly the crying stopped, and suddenly became silent, and the grass on the grass was motionless. This is a bit evil, it was still moving just now, how can a child say that he won't move if he doesn't move?

I stopped and said to the fool and the skinny monkey, "No, something is wrong, how can a child say not to move, and not to move?" Let's go, we don't care. ”

As we spoke, we turned around and left, but just after walking a few steps, the terrible cry suddenly sounded again, it was a heart-rending cry, I don't want to care about this matter, I want to leave, but the old people often teach us that we should do good deeds, good will be rewarded, evil will be rewarded, we will not be saved when we see death like this, that is to do evil, so I stopped and turned around, the fool and the thin monkey, also stopped, the three of us brothers and sisters turned around almost at the same time, I saw that it was still the same place just now, with the cry, The grass was moving vigorously, and I was sure it must have been a child.

So we walked there again, and after two steps, the crying stopped abruptly as the last time, and we decided that we couldn't give up halfway like last time, and this time we were going to look at the kid in the grass.

All came to the grass, the grass that formed the grass was the yellow grass in the mountains, very high, we were all grass houses at that time, counting on the yellow grass fan roof, the yellow grass fan out of the roof is warm in winter and cool in summer, but it is a kind of treasure grass. However, the yellow grass has become a barrier in front of us, and we can only see the truth inside by picking up the yellow grass.

We stood in front of the yellow grass, and the three of us were motionless, and after standing for a while, I said to the thin monkey, "Senior brother of the thin monkey, can you open the yellow grass and see if there are any children inside?" ”

The thin monkey said loudly, "You don't do it, why do you want me to do it?" ”

I said, "In terms of size, you are the smallest, of course you did it." ”

The thin monkey said: "I don't do it, when you eat, no matter how big or small, especially the fool, you can grab it faster than anyone else, brother fool, it's the fool who should do it." ”

The fool said, "I'm not going, and I'm not the biggest." ”

I said, "Okay, okay, you two can't eat enough, what can't you do, I'll do it." ”

After saying that, I saw a small tree with the thickness of my thumb, so I ran to the small tree, and the fool asked me, "Senior brother, what are you doing?" Didn't you do it? How did you run away? ”

I didn't answer the fool's words, but when I came to the tree, I broke it off at once. Then I got rid of the branches and leaves on the small tree, and walked towards the grass with the small tree pole, trying to use this small tree pole to pick up the yellow grass and look at the children in the grass, my hands trembled a little, my heart beat faster, and I felt an inexplicable apprehension.
