Out of self-preservation, I crouched on the ground with my head in my hands, strangely enough, but there was no stick to hit me, and the Venus I saw was the cat's paws flying.

It turned out that the people who wanted to hit me were scratched back by this cat.

Look at the people of the Qian family again, who were flying in front of me just now, but now they are falling to the ground on their backs, covering their faces and screaming there.

I stood up and looked around, and the people who tried to clean me up fell to the ground.

Just when everyone was panicking, the cat "aimed", jumped over, actually jumped over the small river, and swaggered away in the direction of the other side of the river.

There is an even more outrageous thing, the river water that was some distance away from the embankment just now suddenly rose several meters, and the water momentum spread to people's feet in an instant.

Some adults retreated with their children in tow, and the river was spreading faster than people were retreating.

Several children had already been swept away by the flood, and I quickly helped pick up the children who had been washed away, "Evacuate!" I yelled at everyone, "Why are you standing stupidly?" Wait for death! ”

Everyone hurriedly ran up the hillside, I subconsciously pinched the piece of blood jade and prayed, fortunately, the flood did not spread all the time, and when it surged to the foot of the mountain, it slowly receded.

No one is responsible for Qian Laoqi's accident, the flood just now made everyone frightened, but fortunately, there were no living people who were brought back by the flood, only the body of Qian Laoqi who had just been salvaged.

Everyone dared to stay by the river for a long time, and they all dispersed one after another, so I went home with my father and mother, and quickly repaired the courtyard wall, in order to resist the river that might flood again at some point.

I suddenly noticed that the leaves of the poplar trees in my yard were also yellow.

I hurriedly ran out to take a look, and in the whole village, only the poplar leaves in the yard of my house and my uncle's house were yellow.

What's going on? Why is it that only the poplar trees of our old Liu family have yellow leaves, while the trees in other people's yards are normal.

Was all this predestined? I suddenly remembered the shaman's deathbed prophecy about the destruction of the whole village, and the question he had about my father.

Could it be that the root cause of everything is related to our Liu family, and if this is really the case, where is the difference?

I carefully recalled the shaman's words, "The incense candle that should not have been extinguished has been extinguished, the chicken that should not have eaten fish has eaten fish, the feet that should not have landed on the ground have landed, the cat that should not have appeared has appeared, the one who could have married in the shadows has been preconceived by others, everything has gone on a business trip, and I can't control it!" Then he pointed to my father, "Why is it a business trip, you should know best!" ”

Why does Dad know best? What exactly do the words of the mage mean?

No, I had to ask them, and after inspecting the poplar trees in the village, I went back to my house with questions and saw my mother waiting for me in my house.

She was holding an object in her hand, "Where did you get this?" ”

The thing in my mother's hand is the belly pocket of the child I found at my uncle's house when he was born.

"I found it at my uncle's house, what's wrong?"

"No, nothing!" My mother didn't say much, and somehow, I always felt something strange on her face.

——

After dinner, I stayed in the West House, thinking about whether to talk to my father, but I heard the cry of the East House Mother.

Mother, what's wrong? Isn't that okay with me? She wasn't given anything by the people of the Duan family, why did she cry.

"You two guys are chilling when they do this!" The mother said to her father while wiping her tears.

"It's all brothers, what is on the right side, who knew something like this would happen!" Dad sighed and took a few puffs of the cigarette pouch pot.

"O iniquity! O iniquity! If you know today, why bother in the first place! The mother was there with her thighs lined up and shouted in despair.

Wait, what do you mean by mother? What does it mean to know today, why bother in the first place!

"No, I must tell a man about this matter, the people in the village are unlucky, and it is all our family's sin!" The mother cried and shouted.

"Your mother's family, don't talk nonsense, what do you mean by our family's sin!" My dad shouted at my mother, "If you dare to say it, see if I can break your legs!" ”

My mother didn't dare to speak anymore, she was still crying there, what were they hiding from me, I said a big question mark in my heart, no, I must find out about this matter.

I was just about to enter my father's house, but I saw a person at the gate of the courtyard, and I hurriedly greeted him, it was the village chief of "Half Life Village"!

The village chief is over 60 years old this year, this is a respected figure in the village, and he appeared at the door, so I naturally had to go out to greet him!

Maybe you are a little confused, why this person lived past the age of fifty, then I tell you, because she is a woman.

She and my grandfather are of the same generation, and I should call her "Third Grandma" according to my generation!

Unlike the other women in the village, this is the only woman of status in our village, and the men are afraid of her.

The reason why "Three Grandma" has such a name is because of her enthusiasm when she was young.

I heard my grandfather tell me that in the sixties and seventies, when mountains were built and roads were built, there was no scientific and technological means, and all the detonators and explosives had to be buried manually. At that time, you could earn money by going out to work, and the first man to go up the mountain with a detonator did not know the danger of this thing, and just a few steps out, his body was blown away, and the man was forty-nine years old at the time.

All the people were stunned, the men did not dare to take any more risks, the "third grandmother" in their twenties did not say a word, a person carried a detonator into the mountain, everyone only heard a loud "boom", they all thought that the "third grandmother" had an accident, but a few minutes later, the third grandmother came out of the tree, and her head was scorched with a big gong.

Since then, the third grandmother has been called a typical example of the commune, and she has often attended the county's commendation meeting with a big red flower on her chest.

Of course, the experience of the third grandmother is not just as simple as a detonator, listen to my grandfather, the third grandmother went to the commune for a meeting when she was young, there was no transportation at that time, she could only walk, and when she went over the mountain, she met seven or eight wolves, and these wolves did not move her.

I still remember my grandfather's radiant expression when he told the story of the third grandmother, and this feeling made me wonder if these two people had some intimate relationship when they were young.

Anyway, grandpa still didn't marry the third grandmother, in his own words, he and the third grandmother are "fateful", but later the two became confidants who don't talk about anything, there are many things in my family, the third grandmother knows, sometimes even more than my father knows.

The third grandmother has never married in her life.

Uncle's white matter, it stands to reason that the third grandmother will definitely come forward, but I heard about it the day I went home, she went to the province to participate in the commendation conference, saying that it was the introduction of poverty alleviation and prosperity experience, and it took ten days.

This thing is really funny, how can a village that doesn't even have an Internet signal get out of poverty, besides, the "half-life village" continues to solve not the problem of wealth and poverty, but the problem of men's life expectancy.

"Third grandma!" I hurriedly said hello, probably because of my grandfather, I have admired the third grandmother since I was a child.

"Yo, I've grown taller again, I haven't been back for a few years, but I can stay a few more days, come with me to my house in a while, and I'll give you a big goose to eat!" The third grandmother touched my head and said.

"Hmm!" I nodded.

After making my family's best black tea for the third grandmother, I exited the house, saying that I had exited the house, but in fact I was eavesdropping behind the door.

Dad stood aside respectfully, "Third aunt, why do you have time to come here today?" ”

"Available?" The third grandmother took a sip of tea, "If I come back a few days later, do you still have to remove the roof?" ”

"You know everything?"

"How don't you know! I'll just ask you, you turned a deaf ear to what your father told you back then. ”

"No, no, how dare we?"

"Don't dare, don't dare to do such a thing!"

What the hell is going on, the third grandmother has something to say, and I can hear it in a fog.

Sure enough, the third grandmother continued, "I just said, in the situation of your family, no one can enter the right position of the tomb, you can be good, you and your eldest brother rely on your father to die early, and the little wishful thinking is hit." ”

After hearing this, the mother cried even louder, "Their brothers are doing evil, and they can't stop it!" What can I do as a woman? ”

Listening to their conversation, I must have made a mistake when I chose my uncle's tomb, which is why these strange things happened, and this matter really has something to do with our Liu family.

What is it, what is the reason for the grave in our family, the shaman said this, the third grandmother said the same, and the father and mother who were so branched, I always felt that they were hiding something from me.

Do you want to rush in to find out, but just as I was hesitating, another person came to the door, accompanied by babbling and crying.

The third grandmother came out of the house, this person suddenly knelt in front of the third grandmother, I saw that it was Qian Laoqi's daughter-in-law, I remember that she would faint sadly when she saw Qian Laoqi's body by the river, maybe she would wake up again, what did she do when she came to our house?

"Village chief, I know that this incident was committed by Qian Laoqi, and now our family has been washed away by the river, and even a body can't be found, that woman is outside my house every night, crying and howling, can you save us." Qian Lao's seventh daughter-in-law said with a grin.

The third grandmother sighed, "This thing is not easy to do, your Qian family has done such a thing, maybe there should be such a catastrophe, but now this disaster has affected the whole village, and it is not a problem that I can solve." ”

"What then?" Qian Lao's seventh daughter-in-law was sitting on the ground with a desperate look.

"If it doesn't work, find someone to do it!" The third grandmother said.

"Then who to find, the shaman is gone, who else can I find?" Qian Laoqi's daughter-in-law was a little puzzled.

What I didn't expect was that the third grandmother actually set her eyes on me, "You kid is yang, I heard someone tell me, after the water was sent at that time, the black cat directly buckled the blood jade around your neck, if it doesn't work, you go to her house at night to try!" ”

"Me? Am I successful? "The third grandmother, like the shaman, actually said that I am yang, could it be that I am really yang?

"Why can't it be, even if it's to find someone to do, you have to give people time on the road, you go to your aunt's house tonight to try, the female ghost is yin after all, although I don't understand these things, but I also know that yin is afraid of yang, you go and try, what if it's good?"

"Well, good!" Although there is some rejection, I can't disobey the decision of the third grandmother.
