Chapter 35 The ancestral hall of the Su family

When Sunan heard the news that the Su family was dead again, the whole person instantly collapsed on the ground, and the mobile phone slipped from his palm and fell to the ground with a snap. His face was expressionless, his eyes were glazed, and his heart was full of despair.

Zhang Zhen looked at his old friend, with mixed feelings in his heart, and sighed in his heart: "I used to look like I was not doing my job, and the laughing Brother Nan is gone." ”

He squatted down, staring at Sunan with his eyes, his eyes were full of concern, then put his hands on his shoulders, and then said: "Brother Nan, you have to cheer up, you are the head of the Su family, you must not be discouraged at this time, otherwise you will fall into the arms of that zombie." It is estimated that he wants to torture us in this way, so that we will slowly lose our minds and lose ourselves in fear. At that time, he didn't need to make a move, we would have been defeated without a fight! ”

Listening to Zhang Xin's words, Sunan's eyes became clear, he stared at Zhang Xin, stretched out his left hand to hold Zhang Xin's left hand on his shoulder. A smile appeared on his face, and the despair in his heart slowly subsided. His eyes looked at Zhang Zhen firmly and said: "Brother Zhen's words are better than reading for ten years!" You're right, even if the entire Su family falls, I can't fall, the Su family is not so easy to be defeated! ”

Zhang Xin pulled Sunan, both of them stood up, and then he took out two cigarettes from the cigarette case and handed one to Sunan. Then he put the cigarette in his mouth, continued to look out the window, pressed the lighter with his right hand, lit the cigarette in his mouth, and then took a sharp puff and spit the cigarette out the window.

Sunan also lit a cigarette, smoked one after another, looked down at the time, it was only past twelve o'clock, and then said in his heart: "I can't do anything now, I can only wait, wait for the dawn to come." Every second that passed, his heart was tormented.

In less than a minute, Zhang Zhen finished smoking the whole cigarette, and his face was a little relaxed. Cigarettes, like alcohol, can make people relax, and then he turned his head to look at Sunan and said, "If nothing happens, we will have something to gain tomorrow night." ”

Sunan nodded, there was some expectation in his eyes, and his face was a little excited: "Yes!" Unexpectedly, the first time the three of us joined forces, it was more than 20 years later! ”

In the early morning of the next day, the sun slowly climbed up the window and shone on Xu Zhixin's bed. He felt some warmth, and slowly opened his eyes. A pain came from his eyes, and he blocked it with his hand, then sat up from the bed, his back to the window. The sun shone on his back, and shadows stretched from the bed to the ground. He rubbed his eyes with both hands, then turned his head to look out the window, with an expression that he hadn't woken up, and said to himself, "It's dawning so soon!" ”

He picked up the phone on the bedside and looked down at the time, nine-forty. I saw that he came to his senses in an instant, his face was a little ugly, his eyes were a little helpless, and he blamed himself in his heart: "Get a shovel!" Don't miss your flight! Then he quickly got out of bed, cleaned up after three times and divided by two, and walked out of the house.

It was already ten o'clock when I left the house, and it was only an hour and a half before the plane took off. He drove all the way south, his face full of eagerness, and he kept saying in his heart: "Don't miss the plane!" Don't miss your flight! It's all the fault of Luzhou Daqu! ”

He stopped the car at the airport and walked towards the gate. I looked down at my watch, it was ten fifty, and I kept comforting myself in my heart: "There is enough time!" Have faith that the plane will be late! ”

After tossing all the way, he finally boarded the plane. He found his place and sat down, took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to Sunan: "It's on the plane, see you in Hangzhou!" Then he turned off his mobile phone, touched his stomach that had been gurgling, and looked helpless, with countless delicacies flashing in his mind, such as crayfish, xiaolongbao, back to the pot meat, Mao Xuewang, pickled cabbage fish and so on. He kept spitting in his mouth and swallowing in his stomach.

He swam in the sea of delicious food and fell asleep slowly.

Sunan and Zhang Zhen didn't sleep all night, in the early morning, Pan Yanhong got up first, and after sleeping all night, her face was much better, and she was much more energetic than yesterday. He looked at the two people sitting on the sofa, and said with some surprise in his eyes: "Brother Nan, you haven't slept for two nights?" ”

Sunan nodded, only to see that the two dark circles on his face were particularly conspicuous, but his eyes were very energetic, and then said, "Yes!" It's been a bit much lately and there's no sleepiness! ”

Pan Yanhong looked at him, her heart was a little sour, and she said apologetically: "Brother Nan has worked hard!" I'm going to wash up, and by the way, I'll make breakfast for everyone, Xiaoxiao's girl hasn't woken up yet! ”

Sunan looked at her with complicated eyes, didn't know how to comfort this younger brother and sister, and then said lightly: "Go!" Let her sleep a little longer, it will only take more than an hour to Hangzhou anyway. ”

After a while, she made breakfast, and Su Xiao also woke up. She gently pushed the door open, her face haggard, her eyes red, two dark circles clearly dazzling on her fair skin, and her eyes were full of tears. When Pan Yanhong saw her come out, she said with a concerned face: "Xiaoxiao, go wash up, and then come to breakfast!" ”

She looked at her mother, her heart was full of grief, and she slowly spoke: "Mom! I don't want to eat it, so eat it! With that, he walked to the bathroom.

More than half an hour later, they had breakfast, and the four of them went out and walked towards the crematorium. Su Xiao and Pan Yanhong sat in the back row, Su Nan drove the car, and Zhang Zhen sat in the front row. There was nothing to say along the way, and the car was surprisingly quiet. After arriving at the crematorium, he received Su Jin's ashes, Su Xiao held the urn, and tears kept falling. After getting into the car, Su Xiao cried loudly, seeing Su Xiao crying so sadly, Pan Yanhong took her in her arms, and tears slowly fell from her eyes.

The car drove towards Hangzhou with Su Xiao's cry, and after walking for about forty minutes, Sunan's mobile phone rang with the ringtone of text messages. Sunan drove the car with his right hand, took out his mobile phone left and right, looked at it, and said with some comfort on his face: "Brother Xin, Brother Zhixin has already boarded the plane, and he will be surprised to see that you are also in Hangzhou!" ”

Zhang Xin looked out the window, looking forward to it, thinking of Xu Zhixin's appearance when he was young, a trace of joy flashed in his eyes but disappeared immediately, and then he said: "It should be, he definitely didn't think that I was in Hangzhou!" I didn't expect that after more than 20 years, the three of us would meet in Hangzhou! ”

When they arrived at the Su family's compound, it was already past noon. The four of them got out of the car and walked into the Su family compound, looking at the compound, Su Nan had mixed feelings, turned to Su Xiao and said, "Xiaoxiao, come with me and bring your father's ashes to the Su family ancestral hall!" Brother Zhen and Yanhong, you should go to the hall to find Su Ming first. ”

Zhang Zhen and Pan Yanhong nodded and walked to the right, Sunan took Su Xiao to the ancestral hall in the middle, Su Xiao was born in Shaoxing, and the last time he came to this compound was six years ago. She looked at the compound, familiar and unfamiliar, familiar layout, familiar trees. I used to quarrel with Su Jin to come to Hangzhou, to play with Su Ce and Su Jian, thinking about the previous scene, her tears flowed again, and then said in her heart: "There will be no such opportunity in the future!" Dad will never tell me to be careful with this and that! ”

A few minutes later, the two of them came to the ancestral hall. A smell of candles mixed with incense came to the face, and on the opposite side of the ancestral hall gate, there was a platform more than one person high. The platform is built against the wall, and there are many steps on the platform, like a staircase, to the top of the wall. This platform is estimated to be twenty or thirty meters wide. There are many spiritual positions on more than half of the steps, and on the highest step of the platform, there is only one spiritual position, which reads "Ancestor Su Qin's Spiritual Position".

There is an incense burner in the middle of the bottom step, and the incense in the incense burner is constantly rising with white smoke. On either side of the censer is a candlestick, on which the candles are still burning and making a snorting sound. There was a cushion in front of the platform, Sunan walked over, knelt on the mat, kowtowed respectfully, and said with a serious face: "The ancestors and ancestors are above, and the sixty-fifth patriarch of the Su family, Sunan came back with Su Jin's ashes, let him return to his roots and return to the ancestral hall of the Su family." ”

Then Sunan stood up from the mat and walked to the right, on the right was a wooden cabinet, the cabinet was more than one person high, and the wood looked like good sandalwood. The cabinet has two levels, each with two doors, and the doors are closed. Between the two closed doors, a totem surnamed Su is engraved.

On the door on the left is carved a semicircle with a fish in the semicircle, a cross-shaped pattern on the head of the fish, an inverted T row under the tail of the fish, and a circle on each side of the vertical pattern in the middle. There is also a semicircle carved on the door on the right, which together with the semicircle on the door on the left, it happens to be a complete circle. In the circle is carved a seedling, the top of the seedling is bent to the left, and the seedling is also a cross-shaped pattern.

Sunan bent down and opened the door on the lower level of the cabinet with both hands, and there were many spiritual signs neatly facing inside, which were exactly the same size and shape as the spiritual signs on the middle table. He took out a sign from inside, and it was empty, with nothing written on it, as if it was for someone who had just died.

He took the sign and walked to the left, there was also a cabinet on the left, the cabinet had three layers, a whole layer higher than the cabinet on the right, and there were also two doors on each floor, and the pattern on the door was exactly the same as the one on the right, all of which were totems surnamed Su. On the right side of the cabinet were three wooden stools, one of which he took and stood on. Open the door to the top floor with both hands.

I saw that there were a lot of brushes on the left, arranged very neatly, and on the right there was an old pit Tao inkstone, which was blue-green, and the inkstone contained ink. He took out the inkstone, got down from the stool, placed it on the middle table, then took a brush from the left, and then opened the door in the middle layer, in which stacks of white deer paper were neatly arranged. He took one from inside and closed the door.

He lifted the brush in his right hand, dipped ink in the inkstone, and wrote on the sign: "Su Jin's spiritual position", and then wrote on the white deer paper: "Su Jin's tomb". Then climbed to the platform, only to see that on the steps with a spiritual position at the bottom, there were two signs, from left to right: "Su Jin's spiritual position", "Su Heng's spiritual position", he put Su Jin's spiritual position next to Su Heng.

There are seven signs on the upper steps, which read: "Su Jianqiang's Spiritual Position", "Su Jiankui's Spiritual Position", "Su Jianhao's Spiritual Position", "Su Jianlun's Spiritual Position", "Su Jianhua's Spiritual Position", "Su Jianlin's Spiritual Position", "Su Jianxing's Spiritual Position".

Then Sunan put the inkstone and brush back in their place, closed the door, and then walked to the front of the platform with the white deer paper. He felt some pain in his heart, his eyes were a little moist, and then he said to Su Xiao: "Xiaoxiao, bring your father's urn." ”

Su Xiao answered and walked to his side, there was a small door on the wall in front of the platform, which was more than half a person high. He knelt down and opened the door, and it was pitch black and he couldn't see anything clearly. Then he put his hand in and touched it for a while, only to hear a click, and the light inside came on.

Looking inside from the small door, I saw that there were coffins and urns of all sizes, neatly and neatly, and there were several layers. Sunan turned to look at Su Xiao, his heart was complicated, and then said, "Xiaoxiao, give me the urn." ”

Su Xiao handed over the urn and took it back, sad in his heart, and said with reluctance in his eyes: "Uncle, I'll hold it for a while, okay?" ”

Sunan nodded, his eyes full of kindness and said, "Okay! Five minutes, okay? ”

Su Xiao nodded, the tears in his eyes continued to slide, and he didn't say anything. Five minutes later, she handed Su Jin's urn to Sunan, he took the urn with both hands, pasted the white deer paper in his hand on the urn, and went into the door.

Inside the door was a staircase that went down to the ground, estimated to be seven or eight stories high. Inside is a circular space, separated by more than ten floors, each of which intersects with a staircase, where there is a pathway. Eight of these compartments are already filled with coffins and urns. Sunan walked to the ninth floor and put down Su Jin's urn, the urn next to it said Su Hengzhi's tomb, and the handwriting on the white deer paper was very new, as if it had just been written today.

Then he walked up the stairs and slowly walked out of the tomb, turned off the light, and closed the door. said to Su Xiao: "Xiaoxiao, burn incense with your father, light a candle, kowtow a few times, and then go to your mother and them!" ”

After that, Sunan explained to Su Ming and Zhang Zhen, and then drove to Xiaoshan Airport, thinking about Su Jin's death, his heart was extremely uncomfortable, and his eyes were moist. Then he lit a cigarette and took a big sip in the car. said in his heart: "It doesn't matter if he is a zombie or not, he will be exposed tonight." ”
