Chapter 124 The Strange Thing in Higashiyama Pass

Later, the tomb robbers became more and more rampant, as long as someone died, after being buried, within a few days, a quasi-head was cut off, and the head was in a different place when he died, which was a great disrespect to the ancestors, and finally the second master of the village said that there must be a brave man under the heavy reward, as long as the village paid more money, I don't believe that I can't find a capable person. So everyone pooled a sum of money to find someone who could see the coffin, at this time a foreigner stood up, everyone saw that it was a leper head, this leper head was coming to relatives, the head was the same as a flower melon, a bald piece in the east and a bald in the west, triangular eyes, hooked nose, a fierce face, a scar on the face, and martial arts, and the big guy avoided him when he had nothing to do.

He stood up and said that he could see the coffin from being stolen, and also gave us a life and death statement, so the big guy built a few small houses on the back hill for the leper head, and made a small courtyard, not to mention that maybe because the leper head is fierce, since he was a grave watcher, the graves of those ancestors have never been stolen again, and more than ten years have passed in this way, and the leper head has made meritorious contributions to everyone to see the graves of the ancestors, so he went to the village, as long as anyone has food, sit down and eat, and leave after eating a mouth.

As the saying goes, the one who wears shoes is afraid of bare feet, and the leper head is a bachelor, fierce and powerful, and no one dares to provoke him. One year everyone was cool on the street, suddenly someone said that the leper head fell to death in the ghost sorrow, the ghost saw sorrow is a mountain cliff, steep, difficult to climb, there is a cave there, legend has a treasure in the cave, but no one can climb up, we heard that the leper head fell to death in the ghost sorrow, all rushed over to see, only to see that the leper head seems to be planted from above, the head is broken, the hands are broken, the death is very miserable, Niu Er Ye is a knowledgeable person, let everyone lift the leper head back. The deceased is the biggest, although the leper head has no children and no daughters, alone, but everyone still according to the custom, want to find a good clothes for the leper head to wear, the scenery is beautiful, that day I was also in the leper head house, we were in the leper head house, looking for clothes, the leper head cabinet is some shabby clothes, at this time someone found a box under the bed, and when the box was opened, it was a small shovel and other tomb robbery tools that were specially designed to rob the tomb, as well as the black donkey's hooves, everyone was stunned, These are the things that tomb robbers should have.

Just when everyone was stunned, someone shouted: "This thing is the thing on my grandfather's cigarette pouch, how can it be in the box?" Wasn't my grandfather's grave stolen? ”

The person who spoke was called Niu Dazhuang, and he picked up a thing as he spoke, I took a closer look, this was a jade monkey, the person took the jade monkey to Niu Erye, Niu Erye looked at it for a while, nodded and said: "By the way, this is indeed your grandfather's jade monkey, and there are words engraved on it, your grandfather has shown it to me many times before his death." ”

Niu Dazhuang gritted his teeth and said: "No wonder, since the leper looked at the grave, there has never been a tomb robbery, it turns out that this thing is a good thing, don't dogs like to cut off other people's heads?" I'm going to cut off his head today and soak it in a dung pit. ”

As he spoke, he took out a machete from the box, which was rusty, and it seemed that the head of the leper had used this machete to cut the heads of the dead. Niu Dazhuang took out the machete, holding the machete and was about to cut off the fleshy head of the leper head, none of us stopped Niu Dazhuang, the leper head died and was cut off, the head of the body is not pitiful at all, these are just retribution. Just when Niu Dazhuang was about to raise the knife and fall, Niu Er Ye shouted: "Da Zhuang, stop for me, stop for me." ”

Niu Erye is the most prestigious person in our village, so to speak, Niu Dazhuang's raised hand fell, everyone looked at Niu Erye, Niu Erye was on crutches at this time, his eyes looked at everyone majestically, Niu Dazhuang looked at Erye and said, "Second Master, what are you asking me to stop?" I will cut off his leprosy head, and let him die and be in a different place, and these grievances against others are his retribution. ”

As soon as Niu Dazhuang said this, other people also followed the discussion, some said that they had to cut off their heads and throw them on the mountain to feed the dogs, some said that they would simply throw them in the river to feed the king, and some said that they would break the head of the leper into ten thousand pieces, and they would never be able to live forever. Anyway, there was everything to say, and sparks were about to pop up in everyone's eyes, at this time, Niu Erye poked the ground a few times with his cane, and said loudly: "Don't talk, everyone, listen to me." ”

When everyone heard Niu Er Ye say this, they all stopped talking, looked at Niu Er Ye, and wanted to hear what Niu Er Ye said, at this time Niu Er Ye said slowly: "The villagers all listen to me a few words, according to this leper head steals the grave and digs the grave and divides the corpse, and these immoral things should be broken into ten thousand pieces, this leper head has also dug the ancestral grave of our Niu family, I also hate him to the bone, but as the saying goes, the dead are great, whether he is a beast or a wolf in life, we can't be the same as him, our village has been simple for so many years, The big guy has always been generous to others, the leper head is a foreigner, we should treat a person who dies in a foreign country more benevolent and righteous, let the dead rest in peace. Otherwise, he would not have died in peace. ”

As soon as Niu Erye said this, the big guy stopped talking, we are all descendants of the tomb keeper, although it is several family names, the relationship is harmonious, Niu Erye, as the elder of our village, has always been generous to others, and the big guy is still very willing to listen to Niu Erye's words. Niu Erye looked at everyone and didn't speak, so he said there: "I think so, the big guys will go back and get some money, buy a shroud for the leper head, and our Niu family will take out a coffin, and give my shou cai to the leper head, so that he can go in style." ”

Niu Dazhuang stopped doing it when he heard it, and said, "Why is the second master? Your longevity material, but it is left for you to use a hundred years later, how can it be used for the tomb robber of the leper head? ”

Niu Erye said: "Da Zhuang, people live for seventy years, I have lived so old, it is worth it, isn't it just a stinky skin?" After I died, I rolled up the reeds and buried them under the soil, so that the wild dogs could not be picked up. ”

In the end, everyone said that they didn't let the second master out of his coffin, and the big guy made a coffin together, so he bought a longevity coat for the leper head, made a coffin, and then buried the leper head in a beautiful manner. After the burial, Mr. Erzhi calculated that he would return to the seedlings at night nine days later.

Everyone must know that after the dead die, they will come back to see where they lived, touch the things they used before their death, eat a bite of the food prepared by the descendants for the deceased, and then return to the underworld to report with confidence, this return to the seedlings are calculated by Mr. Two Fingers according to the deceased's birth date, and the shape of the hand, when the deceased comes back, there will be rustling footsteps, big or small, some people can see, some people can't see, the leper head is single, there is no descendant, naturally no one will see, But everyone prepared a little food for the leper head, and put it in the house where the leper head was alive, and for a time the house was full of food for the dead, in order to let the leper head go on the road with peace of mind, and not to continue to come back and harm the neighbors.

Everyone gave the leper head a beautiful burial, and made a meal for the leper head, it is said that the villagers of Dongshankou have to be benevolent to him, but the leper head of this person, was a villain before his death, did the lack of virtue of stealing graves and digging graves, and was not alive after death, he was ghostly, became a ghost, after death, he continued to make Dongshankou chickens and dogs restless, to the night of returning to the seedlings, he came back an hour earlier than the hour calculated by Mr. Erzhi, and the rain was particularly heavy in the past few days after the death of the leper head, and it was the same as falling down, and it was not sunny at allIn the words of the old man, this is the leakage of the heavenly river in the sky, and the gods in the sky did not block the leakage.

On the day when the leper returned to the seedlings, it rained heavily for a day, and there was no intention to stop the rain at night, thunder and lightning were added, as if there was something in the mountains in the crossing, everyone was afraid that the rain would be too big, and they would collapse the hut where they lived, and they did not dare to sleep, and after it got dark, suddenly there was a strange cry in the village, and the sound was terrible, like a man crying there with all his strength, and everyone who listened was terrified. ”
