Chapter 7 The Strange Things of the Zhou Family
Grandpa Yu is 75 years old this year, although he is old, he has always been in good health, and he is no slower than us young people.
I finally caught up with Grandpa Yu, his expression was very solemn, as if there was something very important.
"Grandpa Yu, where are you going?"
"Oh, something strange happened to Zhou Dehai's house, I'll go over first to see if your father is looking for me, and I'll go to your house when I go back."
"Oh, it's not a big deal, Grandpa Yu, I'll accompany you to Zhou Dehai's house to have a look, maybe I can help something."
Although I was very worried about my father's situation, Grandpa Yu seemed very anxious, and now was not the right time, so I decided to go over first to see what was going on in Zhou Dehai's house.
Zhou Dehai is a wealthy family in our village, his family has more than 10 sheep, and he has also contracted three acres of fish ponds, and it is said that he has an annual income of more than 200,000 yuan.
Grandpa Yu didn't object, he simply hummed, and hurried to Zhou Dehai's house.
Zhou Dehai's home is in the seventh building in the east, the only four-story small western-style building in the village, which looks very foreign, and is surrounded by an iron fence.
The two of us arrived soon, Zhou Dehai was standing at the door, and as soon as he saw Grandpa Yu, he greeted him and shouted, "Old village chief, you are finally here, Xiaofei, why are you here." ”
"Uncle Zhou, I met you on the road, I heard that something strange happened to your family, I'll see if I can help."
"Lao Zhou, what happened, I didn't make it clear on the phone, what did you say happened to your sheep?"
"It's dead, it's good, it's dead in the morning, and it's very weird to die, let's go, I'll take you to see."
Zhou Dehai can be regarded as a person who has seen strong winds and waves, it is impossible to make a fuss when a sheep dies, it must be that the sheep died extremely strangely, so he called Grandpa Yu over.
We followed Zhou Dehai to the sheepfold, and all his sheep were curled up in the northwest corner, all of them looking unattractive, and a large area was vacant in the east, and a sheep that had long since died lay on the ground.
"Lao Zhou, what's the matter with your sheep, you're sick?"
"It's not that I'm sick, if I'm sick, I don't dare to trouble your old man, you look carefully."
Zhou Dehai picked up the firewood knife from the ground and cut it on the sheep's back without saying anything, and before I could figure out what he wanted to do, he had already raised the firewood knife.
The hatchet looked fairly clean, with only a faint trace of blood.
"Old village chief, you can see it, there is no blood in my sheep's body, and here, there are still traces of being bitten on the neck."
As soon as Zhou Dehai's voice fell, I felt as if I had been struck by lightning, and I couldn't help but tremble, I knew who did it.
It must have been a good thing for Xiujuan, she hid in Zhou Dehai's sheepfold after she left my house yesterday, no wonder those sheep look weird.
Grandpa Yu's brows were furrowed very much, he squatted down and carefully looked at the bitten part of the sheep's neck, and he didn't speak for a long time.
Zhou Dehai looked very anxious, but he didn't dare to disturb Grandpa Yu, but I was a little hesitant to tell Xiujuan about it now.
"It's bad, Lao Zhou, this must be another purple stiffness, something big is going to happen."
Purple stiffness??
This name sounds weird and scary, could it be that Xiujuan is not resurrected, but has become a purple zombie.
I asked Grandpa Yu what purple stiffness was, and he said he had seen it once when he was younger.
One year, it was raining heavily throughout the country, and a hundred-year-old coffin was washed out of the village, and a purple zombie from the Republic of China was lying inside.
Zi Zhuang has no IQ, feeds on blood, has infinite strength, and drinks animal blood in the early days, but soon he will not be satisfied, and must drink human blood.
At that time, the village was in chaos, every family had chickens, cattle and sheep bitten to death, and the situation was a little better during the day, but at night there was no one who dared to go out.
Later, the village organized several strong men to catch Zizhuang, and Grandpa Yu was one of them, they found Zizhuang in the village tomb, but they were defeated, and one of the villagers was bitten to death, and even his intestines were pulled out.
Zi Zhuang sucked human blood, his strength was greater, and he bit when he saw someone, Grandpa Yu was desperate to escape the catastrophe, and finally survived until dawn, he ran dozens of miles and invited the old Taoist priest in the town.
At that time, the Taoist priests all had real skills, and as soon as it was dark, the old Taoist priest set up a magic circle, and within a few rounds, he cleaned up the purple zombie and burned it to ashes.
"Old village chief, what can I do, do you go to the county to invite the Taoist priest over, is this purple zombie still hiding near my house."
Zhou Dehai looked very flustered, looking around, as if he was afraid that Zi Zhuang would suddenly jump out and suck his blood dry.
"Don't panic, Zi Zhuang will not come out during the day, the Taoist temple in the county has long been demolished, and the old Taoist priest of the year is afraid that he will be dead for a long time, Dehai, you go to the village committee to find my son, and ask him to inform the villagers to sprinkle a circle of glutinous rice at the door of the house, so that Zi Zhuang will not enter the house at night, and I will find a way to do the rest."
The purple zombie that Grandpa Yu said must be Xiujuan, but he seems to have said that the purple zombie has no intelligence, and it is impossible to be as weird as Xiujuan.
Things have come to this point, I decided to have a showdown with Grandpa Yu immediately, and this matter is no longer something I can handle alone.
I pulled Grandpa Yu aside and told Zhang Kui about letting me send the coffin as it was, until Xiujuan secretly drank chicken blood at my house last night.
Grandpa Yu was dumbfounded, and it wasn't until I finished speaking that he shouted: "Xiaofei, why didn't you say it earlier, quickly, take me to see your father." ”
Grandpa Yu asked Zhou Dehai to burn the sheep carcass, and asked him not to talk nonsense, so as not to cause panic, so he hurriedly went to my house with me.
The door of the house was locked, my dad shouldn't have gone out, and as soon as the two of us entered with our front feet, we heard my dad's weird singing voice, still singing the song Little Swallow.
But what is a little strange is that when Grandpa Yu heard this song, he suddenly glanced at me, and his expression seemed to be a little complicated.
"Grandpa Yu, what's wrong?"
"It's okay, let's see your dad first!"
My dad was in the back room, and when he came in, he sat upright in a chair, but he had changed into a woman's clothes, and he was wearing a beautiful gold bracelet on his hand.
His expression was very strange, as if he was smiling, and he didn't react much when he saw us, but continued to sing Little Swallow.
"Grandpa Yu, what's going on with my dad, is he evil?"
Grandpa Yu didn't answer my question, squinting his eyes and not knowing what he was thinking, he gave me a very strange feeling, as if he was not surprised at all.
It stands to reason that my dad and Grandpa Yu have a good relationship, but now that my dad has become such a ghost, Grandpa Yu should be very anxious.
"Grandpa Yu? Grandpa Yu? ”
I shouted several times in a row before Grandpa Yu came back to his senses.
He said that my dad was indeed evil, and that when he was young, he learned a little home remedies from Taoist priests to exorcise evil spirits, which should be able to cure my dad's illness.
Grandpa Yu said that he would send me the medicinal materials when he went home to prepare them, and asked me to take care of my dad and not let him run around.
Grandpa Yu left soon, I hurriedly changed my dad's clothes, if it weren't for my dad's dress, I really didn't know that there were women's clothes at home.
These clothes are some years old, and it's probably my mother's clothes.
My mom died in childbirth, and there was no photo of her at home, and my dad always said that my mom's relics were all taken care of, but I didn't expect it to lie to me.
It was a hard job to change my dad's clothes, he was 1.75 meters tall, and I was busy for a long time to change my clothes and take off the gold bracelet.
The gold bracelet is very finely carved, the outer ring is engraved with a golden dragon, lifelike, and the inner ring is engraved with a few small characters.
I took a closer look, Bai Mengru, my mother's name.
Although I had never met my mother, I felt that she must have been married in the city, and the country people would not have such a beautiful name.
My dad doesn't have any big skills, his feet are still a little disabled, in addition to being a good person, he also knows a little carpentry work, but the long one is called a handsome, my mother must have seen my dad look handsome, so he willingly married to the countryside.
It's a pity that my life is hard, I was born without a mother, I haven't even seen my grandparents, it was my grandparents and my father who pulled me up.
I put away my mother's clothes and gold bracelets, and looked outside, Grandpa Yu didn't come back, but there was an excuse-colored polo at the intersection.
I've never seen this car before, it's definitely not from the village, and it's parked very far away, right in front of the gate of my house.
