"Brother, I'm afraid ......"

"It's really useless, you're still a man, what are you afraid of."

"It's so late, let's go back."

In the dark col, Huzi and Xiaowei squatted for a long time, and it was already more than ten o'clock in the evening, which was two kilometers away from the village. Huzi and Xiaowei are a pair of cousins, Huzi is fourteen years old, Xiaowei is eleven years old, the brothers in order to catch a white rabbit, from the east of the village all the way to come here, Huzi is bold, he is competitive, must catch this grinding little guy.

Xiaowei pulled Huzi's sleeve behind him, timidly like a girl: "Brother...... It's too dark for us to catch it. ”

"Look!" Huzi's thief's little eyes stared at the rabbit's white ass: "Look at that haystack—— it's over there!" Can't miss it this time. ”

Huzi pulled Xiaowei away and grabbed his arm and rushed forward. It didn't turn out well, and the rabbit got into something, a small mound. No, it was a cemetery, a nameless, lonely cemetery, they had seen groups of graveyards outside the ancestral hall in the village, but they had never seen such a small one, they didn't even have a name.

"Got in." Huzi is a little reluctant.

"Brother, why don't we go home, Daddy and Mom should be in a hurry."

"I've been capturing it for more than three hours, and I don't believe it can fly to the sky. There aren't many haystacks here, so let's dig up the dirt slope, and the rabbits must be in it. ”

"Grave digging?" Xiaowei's voice trembled slightly, and he shook his head: "I'm afraid, if my father and mother know about this, I will be spanked." Again...... This...... But where the dead sleep, let's ......."

"Don't say you're my brother."

There was no iron weapon around, Huzi used his hands to pick it up, he was not small, and he was also very smart, and he dragged the weeds on the grave with a few casual strokes, and even dragged up the pieces of dirt that had been caked together. A stumble, look—there's a little hole in the grave, look, isn't that easy to do?

Unable to see the rabbit, the tiger could only 'work' again, and when he saw the brother next to him, he was very disgusted: "Look at you like that, you really don't look like a man who grew up in this mountain."

"I'm not a man, I'm still a child." Xiao Wei muttered and replied: "You are also a child, what kind of adults are you."

After a few minutes, the soil was loosened, and the grave was half opened by the tiger, and they could see the rabbit, dirty. The tiger caught it!

"Got you!!"

"Brother." Xiao Wei pointed to the dark, spotted, clothes-like thing in the cemetery: "What is that?"

Urn? No, who hasn't seen the box, it's just a burden. Huzi took the rabbit to his brother and dragged the burden out, which was strange...... The mouth of this burden is covered very tightly, and there are dense words on it, I don't know what to write. Huzi is in elementary school, and it stands to reason that he should be able to understand words, but he can't figure out how to write and draw on it.

"What is this about......

"Brother, the rabbits are all caught, let's go back."

Huzi touched the sweat on his face: "Maybe there's something good in here."

"The grave of the dead, what good things can there be, I'm afraid it's bones."

The child is so strange and strong-hearted, at this moment, even Xiaowei wants to know what is inside, and Huzi wants to see it even more. He opened the package, and it was a pile of dirt, black and gray. A few days ago, it rained heavily, probably too damp, and after watering the cemetery, even the 'things' in the package were sticky, and there was a bad smell, and the smell was sour and rotten.

"Brother, what's it?"

"Probably ashes, but it's damp."

"Let's go back."

Huzi bandaged the burden and put it back in the cemetery, and as soon as he stood up, he felt a little dizzy, as if the sky and the earth had turned upside down. The center of gravity was not very stable, and Huzi sat on the ground with his ass.

"Brother, what's wrong with you-"

"It's okay, it's just that I feel a little sick in my stomach, maybe I'm hungry." Huzi's eyes widened suddenly, and he leaned forward, unable to stop vomiting something.

It wasn't blood, but the vomit on the ground was sticky and black, like the 'stuff' they'd just seen. Xiao Wei couldn't help but cover his nose, feeling the stimulation of choking, this thing smelled too much.

"Vomit ——"

"Brother!"

……

At the east end of the village, two brothers, Tian Zhaowang and Tian Zhaofu, took their women and flashlights to find the whereabouts of their children. It's already past eleven o'clock, and I know that these two children are playful, but they won't go home so late, I remember the last time the two of them played by the ridge, and they would go home at half past nine at most.

"Where do you think the baby can go?"

"Nothing will happen, it's so late."

Tian Zhaowang was angry: "What are you talking about?!" I don't know how to say an auspicious word!"

Zhaowang's women were afraid of men, and they didn't dare to speak more.

Brother Zhaofu's woman has a strong mouth: "Zhaowang, you are also a father, you are not responsible for the baby when it comes out, you two brothers drink together at night, the baby is not with you, now let's talk about it, when we women are bullying!"

"Okay, let's not say a word." Tian Zhaofu wants to save face: "Silly mother-in-law, if you have that kung fu to grind your mouth, it is better to find a baby."

The village was not very big, but they only looked for it near the village, and who would have thought that it would be two miles east of the village. Therefore, the four of them decided to find it separately, one person and one road, there is a stone bridge in the middle of the village, and the roads of Sitong, the roads of the south, east and northwest are very clear, and there is nothing to obstruct. Tian Zhaofu went to the east, he didn't know the bottom in his heart, he just thought, after finding his son, he beat him fiercely: I'll let you do it!

After walking more than a mile, and then going east is Xiaoxiping Village, which is eight miles away, and the child will not go so far, there are no relatives there. The last possible thought calmed him down, maybe the child had met some kind person, staying at home for supper, and visiting the village was a common thing, why didn't he think of it.

"Dad!!"

That's-Tian Zhaofu suddenly looked up, and his son Xiaowei ran over there, panicked, and his running posture looked very clumsy.

Little Bunny!

Tian Zhaofu stepped forward and grabbed his son's immature arm and grabbed his ear: "Dog's —— where are you going!!"

"It's not—Dad! Over there—"

Syllable!

slapped the past, Tian Zhaofu had never beaten his son like this, when it came to domestic violence, he was not as good as Tian Zhaowang, but he was really angry: "Little bastard!" You died outside, I know that my mother has been looking for you all night!!"

The son cried.

"You still have the face to cry! Cry!!"

"Hmm...... Father...... Don't hit me, don't ......."

The other three were far away from here, and Tian Zhaofu ran back after waiting for the word: "Come back with me, see if I don't clean you up."

Xiao Wei leaned, holding his father's hand, tears and whimpering made his throat hold a heavy breath: "Dad, don't go, you can't go, Brother Huzi has an accident."

"What?!" Tian Zhaofu chuckled in his heart: "What's wrong with Huzi?"

Overboard?

If something happens to the children in the village, it can only be this reason, and it is not in the city, so it is difficult to fall from the building.

"Brother Huzi...... He ......"

"What the hell is going on!"

"Brother fainted, and he vomited a lot of things."

Tian Zhaofu took out his dull mobile phone, which had already been polished, and called his brother Zhaowang first, asking them to come over quickly, saying that he had found someone, but he didn't say anything about Huzi's accident. Now everything is still unclear, nonsense to say that other people's children have accidents, if the dolls make a joke, this will make Zhaowang unhappy, the village people care about gossip very much.

The father followed his son to the depression, and the rabbit ...... Of course, it was long gone, and Xiao Wei didn't think about taking it when he turned around, only the lonely graveyard and the tiger lying aside.

Huzi's face was blue and pale, and although he fainted, he was also swinging all over. It's summer now, and on such a hot day, it won't get cold in the middle of the night, and even if you sleep in the field, you won't have a fever. So what's going on with this kid, his body is trembling like words.

Without thinking about it, Tian Zhaofu walked back with the tiger on his back, the pace was very fast, and Xiaowei didn't catch up too much.

The four of them met at Zhaofu's house, and the child rested on the bed board and covered it with two quilts. Tian Zhaofu concluded that the child was suffering from the wind and cold, and he needed to cover it, just sweat, and he didn't touch the child's forehead, thinking that it was redundant, and no one could see that he had a fever.

"Where's the baby?!" Zhaowang's woman ran into the house first, looked at Huzi trembling on the bed, and felt a sour feeling in her heart: "Good girl, what's wrong with you."

"What's the situation, this is ......" Tian Zhaowang also came in: "Zhaofu, what's wrong with Huzi, what's going on?"

"It's nothing, just two little things messing around outside, it's not- it's cold. Don't worry, Huzi won't leave today, don't catch a cold anymore, leave me here to sleep overnight, tomorrow, I'll let Xiaowei Niang make ginger soup. ”

Tian Zhaowang likes to get to the bottom of everything, and asked Xiaowei: "Where did you two go today, why are you still cold, on such a hot day, are you crazy and sweating."

"We went to the east of the village to catch a hare, Brother Hu Zi had to catch it, and then we saw a grave bag, Brother Hu Zi wanted to dig it out to see what was inside, and he saw a flower bag, and then he began to vomit things, and then that's it...... I just came back and called someone. ”

"Flowey's bag?"

Clothing ......

The three of them were stunned at the same time, and in less than three seconds, Tian Zhaowang grabbed Xiaowei's arm and pinched it very painfully: "What kind of grave bag!" What's in there?"

"It hurts...... It hurts ......."

At this time, the ginger soup was ready, and Tian Zhaofu's woman also came over, and pushed Zhaowang away: "What are you fierce!" You know how to drink, when did you ask your child, isn't it just a cold, who hasn't had a headache and brain fever!"

Tian Zhaofu's eyes were worried: "Silly mother-in-law, you don't know, the grave belongs to the third daughter-in-law of the Song family."

Clang!! - The bowl in the woman's hand fell to the ground and split in half, and she was dumbfounded.

"The ominous woman......"
