Chapter 19: Grandma is gone
,
Anger almost made me lose my mind.
Grandma always helped those people in the village, but at this time, no one came to see what happened to her!
Later, Shen Mo told me that my eyes had been blood-red for the past few days.
The people were probably frightened by me, and they all dispersed after a while.
I trembled and opened the coffin, one was my grandmother and the other was her husband.
Her expression was calm, and it seemed that she was lying in it by herself.
I didn't cry because I knew it wouldn't work.
In fact, I haven't cried anymore until now.
I sat in front of my grandmother's coffin until dark, and my mind went blank.
I don't know what kind of mood I feel, and I don't know if it's sad or not.
But I know very well that after living for more than 20 years, the first time I felt warmth in a stranger was given by my grandmother.
And she saved my life!
No wonder she has been saying that her time is running out these days, it turns out to be true.
I don't even know what I'm going to do next.
I pierced Shen Mo's right middle finger, smeared the blood on her eyebrows, and opened the bottle.
A few faint phantoms floated out of the mouth of the bottle and burrowed into the center of her eyebrows.
I didn't know if it would make her better, so I opened her eyes and looked at it, and the dead gray seemed to fade a lot.
That night, I decided to send my grandma and grandfather away.
Although I don't know the relevant rules and methods, I don't want Grandma's body to be cremated.
And Ah Gong, his body has been stored by Grandma for decades, and I can't let them be cremated!
I found a wooden cart, loaded the two coffins and fixed them, and dragged them up the mountain overnight.
I've heard in the past that there are hanging coffins in Xiangxi, and I want to find a place with good feng shui to place their coffins.
The place where the stockade is located is surrounded by some hills below 300 meters above sea level, and I want to find a majestic mountain!
When the sun rose, I stood on the top of the hill behind the stockade, looked at the rolling mountains in the distance, gritted my teeth, and began to move in that direction.
"Looking at the mountain and running a dead horse", there is nothing wrong with the old saying.
I walked for more than ten days before I finally came to the foot of the mountain.
Looking up at the top of the mountain, although the sky was clear, the top of the mountain was faintly overshadowed.
Wiping the sweat from my face, I began to climb up.
It's been more than ten days, but Grandma's coffin doesn't smell of rot, which makes me feel more and more that my decision is right.
The trail was not easy to walk, and when it was dark, I hadn't climbed halfway there, but fortunately the trail was gentle.
I parked the two coffins in a recess of the mountain, went to find some branches, and lit a bonfire.
Nibbled on a piece of steamed buns, lay down against the coffin, and got ready to sleep well.
I slept in a daze until midnight when I was suddenly woken up by a loud voice.
The sound came from Grandma's coffin.
Although I knew that Grandma would not harm me, I was still nervous in my heart.
When the mountain wind hit, I shivered and didn't feel sleepy.
Suddenly, there was a shrill grinding sound in the grass not far away, as if it was gnawing bones.
A foul smell wafted into my nostrils, and I couldn't hold back it, and I vomited at that time.
It was an indescribable smell, as if it had been steamed after a corpse had decomed.
In short, I can't put into words exactly what it tastes like.
My heart was furious.
In such a place, the most terrible thing is not to see ghosts, but to wild beasts.
If you don't get it right, it'll become food in the mouths of those beasts.
I grabbed a stone in my hand and stared warily ahead.
The thing seemed to sense my presence as well, and the gnawing sound stopped.
I stared at the grass for fear that a wolf would suddenly emerge from it.
But I thought too little, and when that thing appeared in my eyes, I almost fainted with fright.
Not a beast at all, but a man!
Because it was dark, I couldn't see the thing's face clearly, only his head hanging from his chest. Got on all fours and rushed towards me.
I quickly threw myself to the side, and the thing hit the coffin with a "thud".
That's when I saw how his head was hanging on his chest.
The ribcage is opened in half, the flesh on the back of the shoulder is stripped from the spine, and the spine is folded down.
At first glance, it looks like a headless man with a schoolbag hanging on his chest.
The suffocating smell made me afraid to breathe at all, so I covered my nose and got up and ran.
I could hear its footsteps chasing after it, and it fell to the ground several times in a panic.
Fortunately, its speed is not particularly fast, and it has been able to dodge its attacks several times.
At that time, I was really frightened, I forgot all about the ghost eyes, what the gods, all of them.
There is only one thought in my heart, which is to run!
I glanced back as I ran, and when I turned back, I suddenly saw a big tree, and I was about to hit it.
With a sharp twist, he rubbed the trunk of the tree and fell to the ground.
My heart was already in despair, when I heard a muffled sound behind me, and the thing crashed into a tree.
My heart moved:
It seems that this thing is not very flexible!
Getting up from the ground, I ran to a place with a lot of trees, and the thing screamed in a hurry, but it never caught me.
Just when I couldn't run and wanted to give up, there was a sudden rooster crow.
The thing shrank suddenly, then turned and ran away without looking back.
I walked back in shock, put the coffin in place, and continued to climb up the hill, the shape of the thing shaking before my eyes all the time.
I didn't dwell on what it was.
Because every time the sun rises, I feel like I'm not afraid of anything.
Even now, when I sit in front of my computer during the day, I occasionally hear the heating or the corner of the desk rattling.
Whenever this happens, I shout:
"Paralysis, let's stop!"
But at night, even the slightest sound makes me feel my heart beat faster and fear rises uncontrollably.
Towards the top of the mountain, a boulder caught my attention.
The monolith is pitch black and shaped like a legendary dragon head, and it is condescending and overlooks the mountains.
On the right side is a steep mountain, almost straight up and down, no plant is as smooth as a mirror, and it is estimated that the geckos will have to fall.
There is a cave at the bottom of the mountain, the entrance of the cave is not big, but it is very spacious inside, and there is a small pool, and the top of the cave is constantly dripping with water.
There is a clearing between the boulders and the cliffs, about 100 square meters, where the plants grow extraordinarily luxuriantly.
Although I don't understand the theory of feng shui, I also feel that this is a treasure of feng shui.
It would be a good place to place the two of them here.
I unloaded the coffin from the wooden cart and prepared to carry it into the cave.
Who knows, this is a big problem...
