Chapter 15 The Old Branch Secretary

It's not that I'm going to think so, now it's certain that grandpa must know something about the reason for my family's experience, and as for the reason why he didn't say it, it should be the same as I don't want my dad to know too much now - some things need to be concealed in good faith, and he may just not want my dad to worry too much about me, but I don't doubt what my grandfather did, whether it was to find my second uncle or find Ghost Hand Eight to sell his life, his purpose was only one, that is, to find a master to deal with the predicament of my family.

Of course, this is also the most uncomfortable place in my heart, I have grown up and can't carry this family, and when there is a problem, I rely on my grandfather, who is already old, to exchange his life for stability.

After I came home after shopping, I had my second uncle at home, and I didn't really worry much about things at home, I was most worried about my third uncle, but I had no reason to call him. My dad went back to school to teach, and my second uncle stayed in my grandfather's room all the time, and he didn't talk very much and I had no reason to approach him, so the atmosphere in the house was very silent, almost silent to the point of depression.

Nothing to do, I went out to wander around and wanted to breathe in the fresh air outside, although the neighbors knew that there were a lot of unusual things in my house recently, but everyone was still very friendly to greet me, in fact, before the recent my family should be regarded as a relatively good family in the village, my father is a teacher, my mother is gentle and virtuous, I am one of the few college students in the village, and the third uncle is a well-known scene. But recent events have completely disrupted the family life that is still harmonious.

"Brother Xiaotian." As I was wandering around, someone called me from behind, and when I turned around, I saw that it was a girl, who looked very familiar, but I couldn't remember who it was.

"You are?" I asked.

"You forgot about me! I'm Xiaoying! She pouted.

I scratched my head and said, "It turned out to be Yingzi, don't blame my brother for forgetting you, you are still the little girl who drags her snot and loves to cry, you are so big in a blink of an eye, it is really a female college girl who has changed more and more beautifully." ”

This is not nonsense, the girl in front of her is slim and elegant, although she is still a little green, but she already has the prototype of a beauty, where is there still the appearance of the local girl when she was a child.

"You've learned to flam, too." Xiaoying blushed and said.

"Tell me the truth, Xiaoying, what are you doing now? School or work? I asked.

"I graduated this year and am still looking for a job, I was still thinking about going to the city to join you, Brother Xiaotian, Auntie and Fifth Master left very suddenly, don't be too sad." Xiaoying said.

I nodded and said, "It's okay, birth, old age, sickness and death are common things that no one can avoid, this makes sense, there are still things at home that I need to deal with, and after a while, if you want to find a job, you can ask me for help." ”

Xiaoying nodded, in addition to this, we have nothing to say, mainly we stand on the street, the neighbors on the left and right are a little embarrassed, just say goodbye to Xiaoying and continue to wander around, just after I turned around, I suddenly thought of a question, Xiaoying's grandfather is an old scholar in our village, and he has also been a branch secretary, and now others have to call the old branch secretary when they see her grandfather, his grandfather is older than my grandfather, and the old branch secretary's body has always been very tough, he actually came to attend my grandfather's funeral.

Why don't I talk to Xiaoying's grandfather, although Xiaoying's grandfather may not know about my family, but he has lived so old, he should have heard some strange things in the back mountain, at least now all the mysteries are rooted in one point, that is, the treasure place in the back mountain, the older people are, the more they know some legends, and many times the truth is often hidden in these legends.

"Xiaoying?" I turned around and stopped her.

"What's wrong?" She asked.

"Is the old branch secretary at home?" I asked.

Xiaoying nodded and said, "It's here." ”

"I haven't seen the old branch secretary for a long time, so I'll go talk to him." I laughed.

Xiaoying looked at me inexplicably, probably curious about what I was talking about with an old man, I didn't care so much, followed Xiaoying to the house, Xiaoying's grandfather's old branch secretary, his father Chen Dahai is also our current village chief This time is not at home, when he arrived at his house, the old branch secretary was over there fiddling with a few chickadees kept in a cage, Xiaoying began to pour water and make tea as soon as he arrived home.

The old branch secretary has a good temper, as soon as he sees me, he smiles and greets, I sit and chat with him, I am thinking about how to lead the topic to the right thing, but the old branch secretary looks at me and smiles: "You kid has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, come to me today to find me something, say it." ”

I was a little embarrassed that he broke it all of a sudden, but I still said: "Hey, it's mainly because of what happened at home recently, you know, my mother was nailed to the coffin on the seventh day, and my grandfather died and made me feel anxious." ”

The old branch secretary nodded and said, "Well, I've heard about the matter, I know, you kid must have come to me to inquire about something, do you suspect that someone in the family has provoked a plot?" I can ask the sea to keep an eye on it for you. ”

"Then thank you to the old branch secretary, but I won't tell you, you see that this matter is full of evil from beginning to end, I discussed it with Master Wang of the coffin shop, and he said that the person my family offended must be a Mr. Yin and Yang, at least a person who knows magic, you are the old branch secretary who knows everything about the village, you help me sum up, has my grandfather or my family offended any masters?" I asked.

The old branch secretary frowned, thought for a while, and said, "I haven't heard of this. ”

When I was disappointed, the old branch secretary changed his words and said: "But I know that your grandfather has a good relationship with a gentleman, this matter is early, it is a matter of breaking the four olds, what is the name of that gentleman, surnamed Wu, by the way, that gentleman is called Wu Yidou, at that time your grandfather was just the same size as you, he was a child to the landlord's family to herd cattle, after liberation is still responsible for the team of cattle, that Wu Yidou is a downed cow ghost snake god, I heard that in the past it was still a very bullish gentleman, but at that time, The more bullish he is, the more ruthless he is, then Wu Yidou is used to being pampered, his body is very poor, and he lost half of his life in a few days. Wu Yidou usually has to help your grandfather herd cattle after being criticized, your grandfather is soft-hearted, see him like that, help him do some work, and go into the mountains to find herbs to compress his wounds. At that time, many people gossiped that your grandfather had a problem with his thinking. ”

"And then?" I asked.

"It's nothing, that Wu Yidou died not long after, and the aftermath is still your grandfather's cooking, now think about it, in fact, that Wu Yidou should have real skills, they all say that he is Mr. Yin and Yang who can enter the yin, you don't know, if you look carefully at his eyes are green, like cat's eyes, such a person must have strange skills." The old branch secretary said.

"Green, cat's eye?" I exclaimed.

"But it's not, at that time, I heard people say that Wu Yidou can see things that others can't see, and this person doesn't need to turn on the lights at night, he can see anything in the dark, and when we criticized him, we also said that he should perform a stunt, he said that it was all nonsense he made up for the sake of eating and eating, now that I think about it, he must have the ability, who dared to tell the truth at that time?" The old branch secretary said.

Green eyes, cat's eyes!

The green eyes that "came back to life" after Grandpa's death!

I felt as if I had discovered a new continent, and my intuition told me that there might be some kind of connection between the two, but the old branch secretary knew really limited, mainly because Wu Yidou died soon after coming to the village, and he didn't leave much of a story.

"Then where is Wu Yidou buried?" I asked.

"I went to the side of the mountain, we originally wanted to dig a pit and bury it casually, but your grandfather didn't follow, and carried Wu Yidou into the mountain to bury him, I really don't know where it is, everyone said that your grandfather is too real, and then I asked your grandfather, and asked him if he was the place where Wu Yidou was buried before he died, after all, the feng shui in our back mountain is not bad, your grandfather said no, he just felt that Wu Yidou died miserably, and he was afraid that he would be buried farther away if he had a grievance to find trouble." The old branch secretary said.
