Chapter 4: A Powerful Chill of Coldness
The grandfather and grandson cried bitterly for a while, and the grandfather stopped his grief and persuaded me to stop, and the grandfather and grandson took advantage of the fact that it was not yet dawn to smuggle my father's body to Wulongling and bury it.
Grandpa naturally knew the seriousness of the matter, and did not answer my questions a word, and pushed everything on the Mr. Tree, who had never shown his face, and I secretly made up my mind that I would take revenge, and waited for the arrival of Mr. Tree like the stars and the moon all day long.
But Mr. Tree did not "come to protect Xiaohua soon" as his father said, but never appeared.
Time flies, the years pass, and in a blink of an eye, it is the third year, and as my grandfather grows old, I have grown into a strong young man.
Perennial deliberate exercise, so that I have broad shoulders and broad chest, strong bones and muscles, a broken hair makes me look extremely energetic, slender and long Danfeng eyes, high nose bridge, a smile to show a mouthful of white teeth, slender figure makes me strong and handsome, become the object of favor of many girls nearby.
But I am not happy at all, first, I always remember that night, always remember that hatred, although I still don't know who killed my father, and I don't understand why my father didn't allow himself to take revenge, but this hatred has been growing madly in my heart.
The second is that I don't know what's wrong with me lately, I always feel cold inexplicably, even at noon when the sun is in the sky, there will be bursts of chills for no reason, and this kind of cold is not from the outside to the inside, but a kind of cold that radiates from the bones to the outside.
Moreover, I have been getting more and more suspicious recently, and I always feel that someone is following me for no reason, and I often suddenly feel a chill all over my body, and the back of my neck is cold, as if there is a sharp knife slowly close to my neck, and I jump up reflexively, and turn around, hoping to find some clues, but the result is that I think too much.
Judging by these symptoms, I suspect that I have a problem, whether it is mental or physical, anyway, I have a disease and need to be cured! But I can't tell my grandfather that my grandfather is so old that he can't afford this.
Since my father's death, my grandfather has changed a lot, he often gets drunk, and when he gets drunk, he hugs me and cries, and every time he cries very bitterly, I am more accustomed to burying the pain in my heart.
Today is my father's death day, and it will be my eighteenth birthday in two months, and in the evening my grandfather specially cooked a table of dishes and bought good wine, but my grandfather got drunk again, and after crying bitterly, I put him to sleep.
As soon as my grandfather fell asleep, I went to the yard to practice on the sandbag, and in the past three years, this sandbag has become my object of venting, and all the hatred and anger have been vented from my fist to the sandbag.
I hate the man who killed his father, I hate myself for not being capable, and I hate Mr. Tree for not keeping his promises.
Just a few punches, suddenly a voice came to my mind: "It's fast! It's finally coming! I've been waiting for decades, and finally it's here, two more months, two more months......"
Although the voice was light, there was a chill in my heart, a cold sweat was scared, and the goosebumps all over my body instantly bulged, I clearly remembered that this voice belonged to the big black snake coiled on the broken temple, it seems that this big black snake has not forgotten itself.
I turned my head and looked at the roof, the roof was empty, he didn't see any big black snake, but his instinct told him that the big black snake was on the roof of his house, because the roof exuded a strong cold air.
I didn't have the urge to continue to hit the sandbag, my body remained vigilant, and at the age of eighteen, I already had the forbearance that only a few people have.
The cold breath did not come closer, but gradually receded, which reminded me of the words of the big black snake just now, what will happen to me in two months? Why wait two months? But no matter what happens, I believe that it will not be a good thing for me.
The fists hit the sandbag one after another, making a "bang" sound, my hands were already numb, and my heart gradually became cold.
"It will only make brute force useless, the opponent is not a sandbag, where to stand and wait to be beaten." Suddenly, a voice came, and the direction of the sound was inside the house.
I was stunned for a moment, turned my head and saw that an old man was standing at the table, holding the wine bottle on the table and pouring himself a drink, without chopsticks, just grabbing it with his hands, drinking a sip of wine and grabbing a mouthful of food, eating and drinking at that speed, it was really fast, as if he was afraid that others would come to rob him, and he stuffed it into his mouth vigorously, at this speed, he didn't choke him, and he swallowed it directly if he dared to put the food into his mouth without chewing it.
On closer inspection, the old man looked to be in his fifties, with slightly gray hair like a mess of grass, casually picked up a red rope and tied it behind his head, his face was black, and he didn't know whether it was dirty or skin color, with a round face and long eyebrows, a pair of slightly cunning little eyes with a rosacea nose hanging under it, a big mouth but thin lips, and at first sight, he knew that he was a master who could speak, eat and drink.
I was wearing a black tunic, which was very popular at the time, but I don't know how long I hadn't washed it, the oil on my clothes could be used as a mirror, and I was wearing two cloth shoes on my feet, which were worn and old, and they looked like they had been turned out of the garbage heap.
This big mouth, this black, this uncomfortable cold, this elusive way of appearing, made me think of the big black snake in an instant, the corners of my eyes jumped a few times for no reason, and the cold sweat on my back came out at once, wetting my clothes, clinging to my body, and it was cold.
The black-faced old man saw me looking at him, glanced at me twice out of the corner of his eye, stuffed a few pieces of roe deer meat into his mouth, swallowed it whole, poured down a glass of wine, wiped his mouth, reached out and wiped it on his body, blinked his small eyes, opened his mouth and asked, "Is this your home?" ”
I now knew where the oil on the black-faced old man's clothes came from, but this did not make me lighten my guard, and I nodded and said, "You can eat it!" ”
It's not that I don't want to drive him away, if it's really the incarnation of the big black snake, I'm afraid that I can't drive him away, not to mention that grandpa is still in the house, it's better not to provoke him.
When the black-faced old man heard this, he stopped eating, dragged a bench, sat down with a golden knife, and wiped his mouth with his oily hand that had not yet been wiped clean: "I know, you are a little flower, right?" Hurry up, call your grandfather out, and say that the old madman is here, and let him come out and have two drinks with me. ”
I frowned when I heard this, I had never heard the name "old madman" from my grandfather's mouth, although this person was sloppy and ugly, but his scheming was deep enough, and he mentioned his grandfather as soon as he came up, clearly telling himself that his grandfather was in the house, don't mess around.
Seeing that I didn't move, the black-faced old man slapped the table, his little eyes tried to open, and he laughed, "What's the matter?" Don't call the old ghost out yet! Don't let you run errands in vain, Lao Tzu is happy, teach you two hands, and you will be of infinite use. ”
My heart suddenly became angry, but I didn't dare to turn my face because of my grandfather's safety, and said with a cold face at the moment: "Grandpa is happy today, I drank a few more glasses, my body can't stand it anymore, I have already slept, what do you have to tell me!" ”
This sentence has actually been evicted, and it can be understood as a challenge book, and I am ready to let it go.
The black-faced old man didn't care at all, but slapped his head, "haha" and laughed: "Yes, it's better than Wang Yueshan's kid with a temper, let me tell you, don't learn from your Lao Tzu's smiling all day long, you have to have a little temper to be a man, otherwise people are not afraid of you, ghosts are not afraid of you, all evil and crooked things are not afraid of you, so what are you messing with?" You say, don't you? ”
What kind of mess is this, I don't know what to do at all, but judging from the tone of this black-faced old man, he must be very familiar with the old Wang family, and he also knows his father, and it is very likely that he is higher than his father, so it seems that it is not the big black snake.
Judging from his name for his grandfather, he is more like an old friend of his grandfather, and between old friends, it is understandable to call each other an old ghost, thinking about it like this, his face suddenly softened a lot, and he blurted out: "Do you know my father?" ”
The black-faced old man smiled and said, "Of course we know, we are good brothers, if there is no me, there would be him!" Don't talk about him, even your old ghost grandfather would have been finished a long time ago, if I hadn't roared when I saw the injustice of the road, your old Wang family would have cut off the incense a long time ago. ”
I respect my grandfather the most, as soon as I heard the old man's words, the anger "poof" came up, this black-faced old man and his father are good brothers, and that is a generation worse than grandpa, this old ghost who opens his mouth and closes his mouth to the old ghost, it is really annoying.
At the moment, his face hung up, and he said angrily: "Old man, looking at your appearance, you have lived for dozens of years, why don't you know the sophistication of people?" Since you call your father a brother and brother, that is, your grandfather's junior, you have to be a little virtuous when you speak. ”
The black-faced old man didn't notice that my fists had been clenched, his already small eyes narrowed, and he still shook his head and said, "What is there to keep your mouth shut, I don't believe you to ask your old ghost grandfather, did he save him back then?" Even your grandmother was promised to him by me, otherwise how could he get a daughter-in-law because he was poor at the time......"
Before I finished speaking, I couldn't hold the fire anymore, so I rushed up and punched the black-faced old man, and my mouth was no longer polite, and I shouted directly: "You get out of me." ”
At this time, I have already decided that this black-faced old man is the big black snake to entertain me, how can I be tolerant, this punch has already used all the strength of the body.
Who knew that as soon as my hand touched the clothes of the black-faced old man, suddenly a strong force came, and before I could react, the whole person was thrown out like a ball, turned over the old man's head, slammed open the door of my grandfather's room, and fell into the house with a "plop".
Rao is my strong body, and this time I was also dizzy and swollen by the fall, and my buttocks were even more sore.
