Early the next morning, my great-grandfather went to the village to borrow a carriage and prepare to leave. At this time, Granny Zhao had to leave the copper coins and gifts she brought. My great-grandfather could tell from the way their mother and son dressed that their family was not wealthy.

In the end, Granny Zhao couldn't help it, so she took out a pair of emerald green bracelets from her arms and gave them to my grandmother. Needless to say, my great-grandmother's family background, the young lady of a big family, what kind of gold and silver jewelry has not been seen, take a look at the bracelet in her hand, and was taken aback, the jasper blood bracelet, there is a red blood red silk in the center of the bracelet, the color and texture of the bracelet are close to the best, and from the perspective of workmanship, it is not a modern thing, at least it is an antiquity before the Tang Dynasty, which can be said to be priceless.

My great-grandmother hurriedly returned it to Granny Zhao and asked her where the bracelet came from. Granny Zhao said that her youngest son gave it to her a few days ago, and she didn't know where her youngest son got it.

Although Granny Zhao's youngest son is short-tempered and ugly, he can still be regarded as a filial son, much better than his two brothers who married a daughter-in-law and did not want a mother.

When my great-grandfather heard this, he took the bracelet from Granny Zhao's hand and looked at it. My great-grandfather was a country man, he didn't know a few big characters, of course he didn't understand these antiques, he was just curious, where did he get such a precious bracelet, Granny Zhao and his youngest son?

After holding the bracelet and looking at it repeatedly, my great-grandfather thought of a possibility, and ** not far from ten!

After returning the bracelet to Granny Zhao, my great-grandfather said goodbye to my great-grandmother, brought some application items to ward off evil spirits and ghosts, and caught the carriage to follow Granny Zhao's mother and son on the road.

As mentioned earlier, Tongxu County is in the east of Weishi County, northern, and the distance is about 70 miles.

Nothing to say all the way. After noon, using the current time, that is, around half past one in the afternoon, my great-grandfather came to a small village in Tongxu County with Granny Zhao's mother and son.

This village is not big, there are only dozens of households, and it is located in the east of Tongxu County, which is about seven or eight miles away from the county seat. Of course, it's still the distance in the past, and it's still the same sentence, now that the population is larger, the distance may be much closer.

Granny Zhao and her youngest son live in two dilapidated old houses in the southeast corner of this small village. At this time, Granny Zhao's youngest daughter was taking care of her younger son at home, the two sisters and brothers had just had lunch, the younger son went back to the room to sleep, and the youngest daughter was washing the dishes and chopsticks.

After Granny Zhao led my great-grandfather into the house, she hurriedly instructed her youngest daughter to make a fire for my great-grandfather to cook.

Granny Zhao wanted my great-grandfather to drink saliva and rest first, but my great-grandfather waved his hand and said, "No need, let's take a look at your son first." ”

So, accompanied by Granny Zhao and her second son, my great-grandfather came to the room where Granny Zhao's youngest son slept. At this time, Granny Zhao's youngest son was already asleep, sleeping like a child.

My great-grandfather walked to the bed to take a look, and first saw the palm-shaped black birthmark on the left face of Granny Zhao's youngest son, I have to say, this palm-shaped birthmark is really scary, the five finger prints are clearly visible, it is really like a ghost scratching his face, my great-grandfather can't help but jump in his heart.

Then, my great-grandfather pinched the end of Granny Zhao's youngest son's middle finger, and then rolled his eyelids to look at it. Maybe because my great-grandfather was too big-moved, my youngest son was actually woken up, and he slowly sat up from the bed, expressionless, and looked at my great-grandfather blankly.

My great-grandfather turned his head and said to Granny Zhao: "This kid of the Kai family, he has put on something, and then he lost his soul, and now he looks stupid and stupid, just because the soul in his body is incomplete......"

"What then?" Granny Zhao asked anxiously.

My great-grandfather thought for a moment and said, "We have to get his soul back first." ”

"Middle, middle......" Granny Zhao nodded again and again after hearing this, and it was all up to my great-grandfather.

The phenomenon of losing the soul generally only occurs in children under the age of ten, and adults generally do not lose their souls, of course, there are exceptions, people who have been exposed to ghosts are easy to lose their souls, and I don't understand the reason too much. Personally, I think that after my soul was invaded by the outside, I ran out of my body, or I was forcibly squeezed out.

The human body is like a container, just such a large space, the three souls and seven spirits have filled it with a gully, and now they are forcibly drilling in part from the outside, so it must go out of a branch to maintain balance, which leads to the occurrence of the phenomenon of losing souls. Of course, this is just my personal speculation, and it doesn't mean that adults are really like what I said, and this one needs to be continued to be studied and explored by colleagues like me. If a colleague sees my above words and knows what it is like for adults to lose their souls, they will not hesitate to give advice.

Straight to the point. At this time, my great-grandfather suddenly remembered Granny Zhao's pair of jade bracelets, and after obtaining Granny Zhao's consent, my great-grandfather found it in her youngest son's room.

As mentioned earlier, Granny Zhao's family is not very wealthy, and there is not much furniture in her youngest son's room, just a wardrobe, an old-fashioned table with drawers and a wooden bed.

Eventually, my great-grandfather found a rag under the plank bed, the size of a porcelain bowl, bulging.

When I took the burden to the table and opened it, my great-grandfather, Granny Zhao, and Granny Zhao's second son were all dumbfounded when they looked at the contents inside.

The baggage is full of good things that the three of them have never seen in their lives, agate jade, gold and silver jewelry, although there are not many, but none of them are worth a lot.

At this time, Granny Zhao's second son opened his mouth in surprise and asked Granny Zhao, "Mother, where did these things come from?" Did you bring a dowry when you married my father? How many good things, why don't you tell me to the boss, give them to San'er! ”

When Granny Zhao heard her second son say this, her face was full of pain, and her tears almost didn't fall, "Second child, if you have such good things, can you watch you live a hard life with the boss?" You Ding'er and her are all the flesh that fell from your mother's body, and no one can deviate from your mother, and no one can pass ...... "Ding'er is our dialect here, that is, three brothers, two Ding'er, that is, two brothers, which can also be understood as "brothers" and "brothers".

"And where do all these good things come from?" The second child glared, a little reluctant.

My great-grandfather couldn't stand it at this time and interjected. My great-grandfather said: "Little brother, if I look at these things, I'm afraid it's not a family, don't ask my mother, if I know that there are these good things at home, I won't give them to you." "Granny Zhao's second son is also thirty-five or sixteen years old, and my great-grandfather is fifty years old, so it's not an exaggeration to call him a little brother.

"So, Mr. Liu, tell me where these things come from? Isn't my mother eccentric and secretly gave all the good things to San'er? "The second elder of the Zhao family turned the finger to my great-grandfather again.

My great-grandfather glanced at him, sighed, and said, "These things look like antiquities, according to me, they were dug up from the ancient tomb of your third son." ”

As soon as my great-grandfather said this, the faces of the mother and son in the room changed at the same time, and the second child was even more silent.

After the Kangxi Dynasty of the Qing Dynasty, civil tomb robbery was rampant, not only many ancient tombs of the previous dynasties were stolen, but even the tombs of the Qing Dynasty and the princes and ministers were also stolen and dug up. As soon as Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty came to power, he added an article to the laws of the Qing Dynasty: those who steal graves and dig graves will be executed. This law lasted until the fall of the Qing Dynasty.

These things in the baggage, if they are really dug up from the ancient tombs of the Zhao family, it is a big crime to kill the head, if the plot is particularly serious, it will not be able to connect the nine clans, and when the time comes, everyone in the Zhao family will not think about it.

The second child of the Zhao family complained angrily at this time, "I know that the third child is not a good thing, look at his ugly appearance, it is strange if he doesn't cause trouble at home, and now he is a fool, this is his own doing." Instead, the second child said to Granny Zhao: "Mother, in the future, he will come to me again, my brother, my mother and I will go home!" As he spoke, the second child turned around and left, and when he left, he couldn't help but look at the baggage on the table, and swallowed and spit.

Zhao Lao Er was afraid of provoking the fire, so he directly drew a line with his younger brother. Granny Zhao's tears fell, and my great-grandfather let out a long sigh. At this time, Zhao Laosan was still sitting on the bed, like a child, ignorant, looking at Granny Zhao and my great-grandfather stupidly.

At this moment, the voice of Granny Zhao's youngest daughter came from outside the bedroom, "Mother, the meal is ready, you can come out to eat with Mr." ”

When Granny Zhao heard the shouting, she hurriedly wiped her tears and took my great-grandfather's arm to the outhouse.

Rice, not sumptuous, egg noodles, there is actually wine, Zhao's mother-in-law's youngest daughter said that this wine was found in the third child's room. My great-grandfather put the wine to his nose and smelled it, and there was a hint of realgar in it.

Realgar wine, which made my great-grandfather even more sure that the third child of the Zhao family must have gone to dig a grave when he went out at night. Realgar wine can not only repel mosquitoes, snakes and scorpions, but also ward off evil spirits if applied to the face. Many tomb robbers have to drink a few sips of realgar wine before going down to the grave pit, and also smear the wine on their faces and hands, one is to ward off evil spirits, and the other is to drill around in the robbery hole, which can also prevent being bitten and stung by snakes and scorpions.

After eating, my great-grandfather said to Granny Zhao: "From the current point of view, your youngest son has really done the work of digging graves and digging graves. ”

"Then why didn't he tell me directly?" Granny Zhao asked.

My great-grandfather shook his head, "I don't know this, there is a saying in our yang world, the secret of heaven must not be revealed, I feel it, these ghosts, maybe they don't dare to say anything......"
