Chapter 5: Ghost Smells

My grandmother died when I was very young, but in the short life I spent with her, I was extremely impressed, or it would be better to describe it as a shadow, that is, fierce. I didn't doubt my grandfather's words at all, not only was my grandfather afraid of her, but I was also afraid of her, and I was very sure that if my grandfather couldn't handle this matter well, my grandmother would really pull him down, so I asked my grandfather, "You offended grandma, what should you do now?" ”

Grandpa didn't reply to me, got up after smoking and went to boil water to wipe his body, change the quilt, and it was almost dawn outside, and grandpa said to me at this time, "I didn't sleep well at night, you sleep for a while now, I'll ask the old blind man, what is the origin of that family." ”

Grandpa didn't make breakfast, and went out with a cigarette gun behind his back. I lay on my own bed, sleepy, but I couldn't sleep after tossing and turning, so I lay on my side, stared at the empty window, and after a short time, suddenly something fell on my face, and I sat up in shock, and looked down to see that what had been smashed on my face was a crumpled piece of paper.

Rural mud house, to say that the mud on the face is normal, a ball of paper must be abnormal, hurriedly looked around, but did not find anyone in the house, reacted that there was a ghost, and hurriedly said, "Which one?" My grandpa will be back soon......"

Before I could finish speaking, another ball of paper smashed at me, and this time I could see the direction in which the paper was flying, right at the desk under the window, but there was no one standing there.

After that, the paper balls flew towards me one after another, I was so frightened that I covered my head with the quilt, until I was sweating profusely and couldn't hold back my head before I came out, and I came out and saw that there were many more paper balls on the bed.

Running means to escape, I opened another piece of paper, there is still a word running written on it, and the next few sheets are written on this word, just when I was about to give up, another paper ball was thrown at me, I picked it up and opened it to see, this time I finally wrote something else, and a sentence was written on it: My father and aunt are coming to you at night, run.

When I saw this, I immediately understood, it was the girl doll who was beaten by my grandfather, I didn't see her last time, but I still couldn't see it this time, and I didn't know where the courage came from, and I spoke in the direction of the desk.

"You corrected me first, and I didn't mess with you. It was my grandfather who beat you, and I didn't beat you, why did your parents and grandparents come to me. ”

Not long after I finished speaking, there was a paper ball thrown over there, I opened it and looked at it, and it said: Your grandfather beat me, so my father and aunt are going to beat you. Your grandma beat my grandparents down there, and my grandparents are even more angry.

I simply sat on the bed and rushed to the desk and said, "Why do you keep writing to me and not talking?" ”

After more than ten seconds, she threw another paper ball, which read: People have words, and ghosts have ghosts. Ghosts are changed by people, so ghosts can understand human words, but people can't understand ghost words.

I was about to reply, when the door was suddenly kicked open, and I saw my grandfather standing at the door with a rolling pin, his eyes staring straight at the desk, as if he was going to eat people, three steps and two steps over, reaching out and pulling it, as if he was grabbing something, and then lifting it up, and said angrily, "You still dare to come, Lao Tzu has to kill you again today!" ”

After saying that, I carried a rolling pin in one hand and pulled the air out of the room with the other, I hurriedly got out of bed and went out, saw my grandfather throw the rolling pin on the table in the hall, and then walked to the cupboard, took out a palm-sized box from it, opened the box, twisted the red powder with my hand, and then shook his hand and slapped it.

Hearing a crisp sound, it was like a hand hitting the face, there was a hook hanging a dish towel on the cupboard, grandpa hung the air in his hand on the hook, walked to the door and took off a few wormwoods inserted in the door, circled a few times to form a ring, returned to the cupboard and said, "Stretch out your hand, if you don't stretch it out, you will be beaten." ”

It looked like Grandpa was talking to the air, but I knew he was talking to the girl who had just written to me.

Grandpa's face was gloomy and terrible, and after saying this, he put on the ring formed by wormwood, and as soon as he put it on, the scene in front of me made me unforgettable for life.

There was a woman hanging on the cupboard, who looked to be only sixteen or seventeen years old, she was hanging there motionless like a dish towel, with a red slap mark on her face, a pen and paper in her hand, a wormwood ring on her wrist, biting her lower lip and looking at her grandfather in horror, trembling, crying so much that pear blossoms brought rain. She was so good-looking, and at the age of eight, I saw for the first time someone more beautiful than a young widow in a neighboring village.

Grandpa didn't care how miserable she cried, picked up the rolling pin again, and made a gesture to hit her, although I didn't know her, but watching such a soft and weak little girl being beaten by grandpa like this, I couldn't bear it, and she didn't come to hurt me this time, so she hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed grandpa's arm and said, "She's not here to hurt me." ”

As soon as I finished speaking, my grandfather turned around and yelled at me, "You short-lived, which one told you to talk to them?!" If you dare to intercede, Lao Tzu will fight you together! ”

The girl was trembling all the time, and she didn't dare to cry out loud, and when her grandfather moved the roll in her hand slightly, she would tremble violently, and she was so afraid that she didn't dare to cry, but she didn't dare to talk to her grandfather.

I was so frightened by my grandfather that I didn't dare to plead again, so I hurried back to the house and took out the paper ball she had written to me, showed it to my grandfather, and said, "Grandpa, she really didn't come to harm me, she came to report to me." ”

Grandpa looked at the paper ball in my hand and was stunned, and then glanced at the girl who was hanging on the cupboard, blinked, her face was like turning a book, and suddenly changed, and she was blowing her beard and staring at her eyes before, and after blinking her eyes, she turned into a smiling face, and said happily, "That's the case, don't cry quickly." Then he turned to me and said, "Go and bring the basin of washing water." ”

Grandpa finally stopped, and I was relieved, and immediately went to bring water, took a washcloth, and wrung the washcloth, and grandpa said to me, "You go and wipe that thing on her face, it's harmful to leave it on her face." ”

Grandpa was talking about the red powder he had just slapped, I snorted, wrung the towel, stepped on the stool and went up to wipe her face, during which my fingers touched her face, and the ice was not good, but after wiping the red thing on her face, I touched her again, and she was like a cloud of air, and my hand passed directly through her face.

She was really scared by her grandfather, when I wiped her face, her body was as stiff as wood, no matter how I moved, she looked at her grandfather motionless anyway.

When I finished wiping, grandpa lifted her off the hook, and then stared at her with big eyes, grandpa looked at her with a happy face, she looked up at grandpa with a frightened face and a face full of grievances, her eyes were teary, her shoulders shrugged twice from time to time, it was sobbing.

After watching it for a while, her grandfather asked her again, "Is it too early?" ”

She doesn't speak.

Grandpa turned to me and said, "Go get some sticks of incense and light them." ”

I did so, brought incense and lit it, grandpa asked me to put the incense to the girl's side, and the smoke burned out went down the girl's nose and went in.

The girl doll gradually stopped sobbing, and the incense in my hand was almost burning, but my grandfather reached out and patted me on the head, and reprimanded, "Can't you speak?" Why didn't you tell Lao Tzu just now that she wasn't here to harm you. ”

Before I could reply, the girl walked out the door with tears in her eyes, and said intermittently as she walked, "I'm going back to find my father and aunt." ”

I was surprised, didn't she say she was talking nonsense? How do I get it?

After walking a few steps, grandpa reached out and pulled her back, she thought that grandpa refused to let her go, and was frightened to freeze, grandpa said, "The sun is out outside, you can't go, stay here first, and then leave at night." After speaking, Grandpa changed his face again, and said with an awkward smile, "Don't tell your father and mother about today's events when you go back at night, just say that you are here, and I will entertain you with delicious food and drink......"

I've never seen anyone so cheeky, really, never!
