Chapter 18: Rabbit Hunting
When my dad was just married and didn't have me, that is, when he was still a young man in his twenties, he was very energetic, and every Sunday he would go to the nearby Taihang Mountain with a group of good buddies to play. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info sometimes hiking and climbing, sometimes playing some game, and living a happy life. When I was born in '83, the frequency of this habit was reduced to once a month because I had to take care of a newborn child, but it never stopped.
In '85, I was two years old, and my dad was nearly thirty years old, and his energy was about to decline, but of course the habit of going into the mountains was still not abandoned. It was the last Sunday of September, and it happened to be the Mid-Autumn Festival, which was especially depressing because my birthday was the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival. Since it's a birthday, there are always some delicious foods, and it happens to be a Sunday, just go to the mountains to hunt game, and come back in the evening or roast or stew, isn't it beautiful?
After making up his mind, my dad asked a few colleagues to go to the mountains to see what they could gain, and in order to relieve Liu Jianguo's depression at work, he also made a special appointment with him. Don't look at Liu Jianguo to do anything else, but I can't think of hunting is really good, this way luck is not bad, Liu Jianguo hit two pheasants as soon as he went up the mountain, and then met a gray rabbit, staggering and jumping, Liu Jianguo because he had just harvested, was struggling, and said that he had to show a marksmanship. My dad saw a rare smile on Liu Jianguo's face, so he went. I saw him pick up the earthen gun and pull the trigger, and the rabbit instantly became the meat of the bag. Liu Jianguo laughed, and my dad and a few people ran to the rabbit's corpse.
What happened later is the most bizarre and weird part, according to my dad, when they ran to the rabbit, they didn't know when they entered a trance, and when they ran to the so-called rabbit, ****, where is the rabbit, it is clearly a dead person! It was a man in his 50s, dressed in rags, and the gunshot wound on his head was still bleeding!
I remember that there is an episode in Journey to the West, that is, Princess Bao Xiangguo chased a rabbit on a horse, but it passed, a puff of green smoke, and the rabbit turned into a monster, I asked my dad, how did the rabbit become a person, and it was also a puff of green smoke? My dad said that he couldn't tell the feeling, that kind of feeling, it can be compared to this, that is, people will never remember when they fell asleep at night, and a few of them, at that time, it was also that feeling, obviously a few minutes ago was a living hare, and it became a dead man when it crashed with a shot!
If it is a hallucination, how can several people have the same hallucination at the same time?
A few of them were scared on the spot. To be honest, if someone hadn't seen it, a few of them would have wanted to run.
They heard a scream, and they saw that it was a villager. The villager screamed, turned around, and ran away. Now the crime has been witnessed, and I can't run away if I want to. There is no way, just honestly take the initiative to find the locals to admit their mistakes, even if they run away, this matter will be a disease after a long time in my heart, and it is better to solve it once.
They went to a nearby village to inquire, and after listening to the description, most of the nearby villagers said, "It can't be that crazy Xu Tou, right?" "Later, my dad and they went to the village chief to recognize people, and finally determined that the deceased was Lao Xu Tou, according to the locals, this old Xu Tou had some skills in the past, knew some yin and yang gossip feng shui yin house and other things, and would also give people a doctor, and the person is also very good, give people free of charge, whose child is sick with a cold, just find him to recuperate, and if it is an abnormal coma or loss of soul such things, he is even better at it, but such a person, because once he treated a child in the same village, because of excessive medication, Drugged the child to death. As the saying goes, everything is good and can't cover up the ugliness, and the family has formed a bond with Lao Xu Tou since then, and Lao Xu Tou has been in a slump since then, and he will never give people a look at the disease again. Later, I experienced that era, defeated all the cows, ghosts, snakes and gods, Lao Xu Tou was miserably criticized, and later was tortured to the point of madness, often running around in the mountains in tattered clothes, and sometimes talking nonsense, shouting that the troubled times are coming. Such a good person has become like this now, and it is logical that he has never found a wife and no home in his life.
Although Lao Xu Tou said that he was crazy, he did not harm the people in the village, but in this way, the people in the village still regarded him as a plague god, and everyone who saw him avoided him.
My dad listened to the life experience of the deceased, and Liu Jianguo, who killed the person, of course didn't have the heart to listen, just apologized vigorously, cried and wiped his tears, and was so frightened that he couldn't even speak clearly. My dad told the village chief about the incident, and the village chief sighed and said that this person was like this before, and now he is relieved, and said that he would not pursue it and find a place to bury him. This matter, it seems, is over like this, and it can be regarded as the best outcome.
But Liu Jianguo seemed to be frightened by this incident and began to become in a trance, my dad didn't go to him for a drink, and he didn't say anything about going out to play on Sundays, so he slept at home. And the original introverted personality became more and more introverted, and my dad wanted to enlighten and enlighten. He told my dad that he had insomnia every night, and as soon as he fell asleep, he dreamed of the man who had been killed, his face as white as paper, his eyes staring straight at him, and the gunshot wound on his head was bleeding all over his face. He had been tortured to the point that he couldn't stand it anymore. My dad kept trying to get him out of the way, and invited him out for drinks at night, but it didn't work at all.
As the saying goes, paper can't hold the fire, I don't know which colleague stabbed it out, and it spread in the factory, and the more it spread, the more evil it became, especially at night, when the daughter-in-law of the factory worker sat on a horse to enjoy the cool outside, it was even more oil and vinegar, and it was haunted and haunted.
This matter naturally reached the ears of the factory director, and he held a special meeting for this purpose, so that the factory employees could work with peace of mind, contribute to the four modernizations, and not spread feudal superstition. Where's the ghost, where the hell? The ghost is in the heart of man! A person who accidentally injures someone, is frightened, has cranky thoughts, has hallucinations or something, is normal and can be explained by modern medicine.
Later, the director of the workshop also talked to several parties, including my father, and asked them to change their words and refute the rumors, saying that they were going to beat rabbits but accidentally injured villagers passing by, not to mention that rabbits have become people, which is too ridiculous and has no good impact on the working state and thinking of factory workers. The workshop secretary specially talked to Liu Jianguo many times and asked him to let go of his ideological baggage. But none of this seems to work.
To say that at that time, there was no pressure on state-owned enterprises. Every day after work, especially those old ladies, they love to chat with their parents and their families, and now there is such a particularly strange thing in front of them, of course they hold on to it. Seeing that Liu Jianguo's state is getting worse and worse, a good person said that their relatives who know a person who understands these aspects are also engaged in feudal superstitions.
Later, through some connections, I really invited this person, of course, this person is Mr. Zhou.
