Chapter 30 Horse Waist Mountain Reservoir
"You can't be a coffin bearer too, are you?" I suddenly asked, I wanted to kill him by surprise, after all, he was old, and there was always a time when he was confused.
Old Man Huang raised his head and looked at me and asked suspiciously, "Why do you say that?" ”
"Oh, just ask, because according to what you just said, the next generation will be cursed, your grandson ......"
Old man Huang glared at me, the cigarette holder in his mouth was about to break, and I felt that something was wrong. He suddenly picked up the whole unopened cigarette in his arms and threw it at me, I quickly dodged it, which surprised me, why did this old boy get so angry, I reversed it according to his logic.
"Damn it, your grandfather is the coffin burial man, you are a ghost species, my family Zhang'er doesn't deserve to die, you little bastard, you dare to use these words to stimulate me." Old man Huang said angrily, his eyes almost falling to the ground.
"Master Huang, don't be angry, I originally asked in passing, if you are so excited, I really suspect that you are the person who buried the coffin." I continued to stimulate him.
Old man Huang was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and he couldn't speak for a long time, then turned around and went back to the house, and came out with a kitchen knife after a while. I was so scared that I ran away, this old boy is not like a soft-hearted lord, in vain my grandfather and he are young, seeing that I have been bullied since I was a child, and I have never said a word of justice. One time I was playing in front of his house and was thrown a stone by a sixth-grade kid, and he took one look at it and left without saying a word.
I can't imagine that he and Huang Xuan hate me so much because of jealousy, I belong to the kind of people who can't be damned, in their eyes, only their own sons and grandsons are the ones who don't deserve to die.
I looked back, but Old Man Huang didn't catch up, and looked at it carefully, except for knowing some information about my grandfather, there was no useful information. I lit a cigarette and peed on a jujube tree on the side of the road, why do I have to face it, because it is my childhood memory, I don't know if there is this kind of food anywhere else, anyway, when I was a child, our snack was this, there were snake fruit on the mountain, silkworm breeding was popular more than ten years ago, and mulberry. In short, there is no money and no shortage of snacks, so I'm afraid that you won't go up the mountain to find it.
I trembled, and was about to turn around, when I saw the crazy woman squatting in the grass and smiling at me, with a dog's tail in her mouth. I rubbed it, so scared that I quickly pulled the zipper, but I used too much force, and the skin was stuck, and I jumped and fled in pain.
Looking back at her, she was actually standing in the middle of the dirt road and looking at me, looking like she was looking at me, which made me a little soft-hearted, she probably wouldn't treat me as a son!
The crazy woman is naturally suspicious in the village, she has never done anything bad, she just likes to play with children, and when children bully her, she smirks, but the parents see it and scold her. What's wrong with her? Fate is never merciful, it is a ruthless machine, just like people on TV playing Russian roulette, when it is your turn, you think you are unlucky, go die, who the cares about you?
The zipper was stuck underneath and it hurt so much that it almost bleed. In a depressed mood, Zhang Peng seemed to have just gotten up, standing at the door of the mobile board room and stretching his waist, doing expansion exercises very rhythmically, not to mention Charles, he is also a soy sauce player, and the coffin burning charm is useless, but he has no guilt.
"How's it going?" Zhang Peng asked.
"He told me the story of his grandfather."
"Didn't come up with anything else?"
"He said my grandfather was a coffin bearer."
"What?" Zhang Peng was also shocked, the coffin man should be a long-lost profession, who has food to eat, and still do this kind of immoral thing.
Then I told him what Old Man Huang said, Zhang Peng has been listening carefully, he should be more interested in this kind of thing, and he may have heard of this kind of profession in other places.
"What Old Man Huang said may be true, but it may not be all true." He analyzed.
"What do you mean?"
"You said that in those years, everyone lived by eating Guanyin soil, your family is in such a situation, can their family be much better? Do you eat for a living? Why didn't he go to be a coffin bearer? This way of making money is very secretive and cannot be accessed by ordinary people. ”
"He said he was afraid."
"Who the isn't afraid? Your grandfather is not afraid? If it is only his own danger, maybe your grandfather has commendable courage and will not be afraid, but this is a matter of cutting off children and grandchildren, and the people of our country care about this very much, especially in those years, the continuation of incense is more important than their own lives. However, your grandfather Jiang Beishan is really not an ordinary person, and when he listens to others' fools, he dares to exchange the price of never being able to live for the safety of his descendants. ”
"Hey, I feel powerless." I said discouragedly.
"You kid can't be discouraged, since you miraculously survived, you have to work hard to get a chance to survive. Otherwise, your grandfather died in vain. ”
We chatted under the eaves, and Zhang Peng was disappointed in me, because I had neither inquired about the method of taking the coffin, nor did I inquire more about the secrets of Angelica Village, he crossed his hands, shook his head and sighed: "Young man, you are still too tender." ”
"This old fox won't tell me what I can do?" I replied.
"Huang Xuan's talisman, if it is useful, then Old Man Huang must be the person who buried the coffin. If it doesn't work, it's him pretending to be a god and deceiving people. Zhang Peng analyzed.
"I asked him if he was the one who buried the coffin, and I must have mentioned his grandson, who was almost cut by him with a knife." I didn't say anything about the trouser chain skin, I can't afford to lose this person.
"Wait, what's wrong with his grandson?"
"The year I was born, his grandson fell into a reservoir and drowned."
Zhang Peng waved his hand and fanned away the cigarette I exhaled, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "You don't know what evil is in Angelica Village, there are mass graves, corpse pools, guillotine gorges, hanging coffins, and Mayin Mountain Reservoir, and a bunch of inexplicable people, there are so many famous people." But he himself said that the next generation would be cursed, and didn't his grandson prove that? ”
"If I didn't have this snake scale, I'd leave here. Here in my memory, there was more pain than joy. ”
"It's okay, when I find a solution to cure your back, my brother will take you outside to the world."
At this time, Mr. Sun was answering the phone upstairs, so we naturally shut up and eavesdropped, and the English he spoke was going to come to the eighth person, and there was a boat. My English level is very average, in fact, I still know a lot of words, and the exam is not a big problem, but when the other party says a lot, my brain is confused, and I can't react, so I can only guess. Zhang Peng blinked his eyes and held back for a long time, I still wanted him to translate, but he asked first: "What did he say?" ”
"Your English is worse than mine, huh?"
"How could I be worse than you, I don't even understand a word because I'm too lazy to learn. The Chinese language is broad and profound, I don't understand, what kind of bird English do you learn, is there such a profound knowledge of Taoism abroad? ”
He just used strong words to reason, and told him about the meaning of the glasses. He pinched his chin and thought about it, "It seems that they also found out that Charles had a problem, so this time they found a serious foreigner." It's good to fool foreigners to die, anyway, they're not afraid. ”
"Why do you think the above allows him to be so foolish, the boat he said can't be a sonar ship, right?"
"Guillotine Gorge is such an awesome water, who doesn't want to develop it, the mayor also wants to, someone is willing to stir up trouble and fight against the villagers, why wouldn't he do it? Besides, Ouyang Xiong's reason is so sufficient, his daughter is still alive below, who dares to stop it? Aren't you afraid of being sprayed to death by netizens? ”
Zhang Peng's analysis is very reasonable, he is worthy of being an old Jianghu, and he can see it more thoroughly than me. He went back to his room and took the cloth bag, put the iron sword on his back, and said, "Let's go, go to Guillotine Gorge to get some water first." ”
"What are you doing with water?"
"I'll take a sip, and then let's go to the Mayinshan Reservoir to see if the taste is the same, then we will know if it is the same as the Guillotine Gorge."
"In case the water in Guillotine Gorge is not normal, you are poisoned, and I will carry the black pot again." I replied.
"What about your brain? That's living water, you didn't drink the water of Guillotine Gorge? Why aren't you dead? Besides, in the world, everything is born from water, even if it is a human being, it can only be temporarily polluted, and after thousands of years, when people are dead, the water is still clear, and the creatures under the water are still alive. ”
He's right, I can't argue with it, but his fault is that he's unforgiving.
"Aren't the fish that were killed by sonar last time normal river fish? Why hasn't it mutated? We must learn to look at problems dialectically. ”
"Brother, don't say it, can't I go?" My ears are calloused and sprayed all over my body.
"Go ahead, get a rope to hang the bucket."
I first went home and ate some leftovers, then took a small bucket and found all the ropes that bundled firewood and connected them together, and estimated that it was thirty or forty meters, and it should be almost the same as running through the mouth of the Guillotine Gorge. Unexpectedly, Zhang Peng said that it was too far away from the pond, and the taste of the water would become weaker, and he found a rope of dozens of meters from the expedition team. He was dangling in front of me with a small bucket of water, and I was as tired as a dog, and I had to climb the mountain.
