Early the next morning, before dawn, I was woken up by Sun Er's fat man. I rubbed my eyes and asked confusedly, "What's wrong?" The ghosts of the blue sky and the day dare to come out? ”

"Something is wrong, Lao Wei Tou was found fainting in the ancestral cemetery early in the morning." Sun Er's fat man was so anxious that he jumped to his feet.

"Are you alright?" I asked, yawning as I dressed.

Sun Er's fat man replied: "People are fine." But this terrible ghost doesn't even let go of his own family, can he still let go of the people in our village? ”

I smiled and waved my hand, "In the cognition of ghosts, there is no distinction between family members and outsiders. So you don't have to worry. ”

Sun Er's fat man breathed a sigh of relief when he heard me say this, and when he came back to the meaning of my words, he hurriedly chased after him and asked, "What does the master mean that this ghost is inhuman, as long as it is human, it will be killed?" ”

I took a sip of gruel and said, "You said it was a ghost, where is there still humanity?" ”

"Let's go, take me to the grave where Lao Weitou had an accident, and then go to Lao Weitou's house to have a look." I grabbed a steamed bun and walked out.

The ancestral cemetery of Qianqian Village is on the hillside north of the village, and there are hundreds of graves as far as the eye can see. Some are overgrown with weeds, while others are in the shape of small houses made of cement bricks. Some had tombstones, and some didn't even have a wooden stake.

I looked around and saw two wreaths in front of a grave, so I walked straight over.

Sun Er's fat man touted: "Little master, you are really amazing." I haven't even shown you the way, but you've found it on your own. ”

I pointed to the new wreath, and then said, "Please, can you not add the word 'small' in front of the master, you see where I am small." ”

Sun Erpang laughed and said, "In this way, you can see that you are young and promising." I think when I was your age......."

Sun Erpang was chattering about his own youthful past, I followed the grave and observed it carefully, saying that the grave was just two mounds, although it was morning, the sun was not the strongest, but when I walked to the grave, I could still feel the bursts of rich yin qi.

I walked around the graves a few times and finally found a small hole in the weeds where the two graves were connected. Although there are often weasels, hedgehogs, rabbits, etc. in rural graveyards, they will also burrow. But my gut told me that the hole was definitely not made by animals.

I couldn't help but be curious to get closer and take a closer look, but I didn't want to stumble under my feet, and the man fell to the ground, his eyes just on the hole bigger than his fist.

Suddenly, in the dark hole, a pair of miserable white eyes appeared, staring straight at me.

Rao is no matter how bold I am, I was also startled by these white eyes, and I didn't care about maintaining my superior image in front of others, so I screamed in embarrassment, and stood up with a roll.

Feeling the warmth of the sun on my face made me feel a little better. My back was soaked with cold sweat.

"Little master, what's going on?" Sun Er's fat man saw that my situation was not right, and hurriedly asked.

I took a deep breath and waved my hand, "It's okay, it's okay." ”

Sun Er's fat man came to me, probably because he saw my slightly pale face, and asked suspiciously, "Are you okay?" ”

I couldn't hold back, so I walked back around Sun Erpang and said, "Things are probably not as simple as I thought, accompany me to Lao Weitou's house to understand the situation." I'll come back in the evening. ”

Sun Erpang listened to my seriousness, and also followed, and the boss with small eyes asked, "Are you coming at night?" ”

"Looking for a ghost during the day? Of course you have to come at night. I asked rhetorically.

Sun Er's fat man rubbed his hands and said, "Look at me, this is a flat-headed common man, except for this and two hundred catties of meat, there is nothing else." Besides, I still have a wife. You see, you know this way, too. I won't come with you at night......"

I looked at Sun Erfat's appearance and couldn't help laughing, "What do you want you to do at night?" Don't look back, I'll have to distract myself from protecting you, and it will be worth the loss. ”

The old Wei Tou's house is a bungalow, and there are confetti and yellow paper from the artillery battle in front of the door, and there is still white silk hanging on the lintel.

When I went to find Sun Erpang, Lao Wei was sitting on the horse and smoking. Through the smoke I saw a face like pine bark, dark and full of wrinkles, if it weren't for Sun Erpang saying that Lao Wei Tou was not too old, less than sixty, I could hardly believe that the pressure and blows of life could make people look like this.

This is the first time I have faced it head-on, and I clearly feel that life is not easy. My eyes couldn't help but heat up, and I thought of my father at home, and when I was not at home, my father might have been like Lao Weitou, sitting on a horse and smoking a dry cigarette.

"Uncle Wei, this is a master from the mountains, don't look at your young age, you can have great skills. Little Master has something to ask you. Sun Erpang took out a cigarette from his arms and handed it over.

Old Wei Tou glanced up at me, his eyes were completely devoid of brilliance, and said, "Little doll, can you ask whatever you want?" ”

I folded my hands and recited "Amitabha", "Uncle Wei, what was so special about your daughter-in-law before she committed suicide?" If you think about it, please tell me in detail. ”

Old Wei Tou sighed and said, "It's nothing special." After my son died, my daughter-in-law's spirit was a little trance. So I climbed dozens of miles of mountain roads and went to find a Taoist priest to come and exorcise evil spirits at home. In the first few days after the exorcism, the daughter-in-law was normal, and she could do housework or anything. But then I slowly couldn't do it again, and I locked myself in my room all day and drew the curtains. The mouth is full of ......"

I muttered in my heart, Taoist? Suicide? I can't say anything is wrong, but I always feel weird.

"Uncle Wei, can I go into the house and have a look?" I asked cautiously, for fear of touching the old man's heart.

Old Wei nodded blankly and pointed in the direction of the room. Perhaps for him, his heart is already dead at this moment.

When I opened the door, I felt the smell of blood, and there was no light in the dim room, and the position of the window was obscured by a red quilt cover.

I sniffed, and there seemed to be something else in the air, a smell that didn't belong to the world. It's light, but I'm sure.

When I said goodbye to Old Wei, I finally couldn't hold back and said, "Uncle Wei, if you can, I would like to ask you to take us to see your little grandson's grave." ”

I knew that such words might break the old man's heart, but for the sake of the lives of the whole village, I had to say it. Sun Erpang also tugged at the corner of my clothes and complained: "Little master, what are you doing here, aren't you digging people's hearts with a knife?" ”

"I have a last resort, you'll find out when you go and see it later." I looked at Old Wei with earnest eyes.

After a long time, Lao Wei patted the cigarette ash on his body, took a few bundles of incense from the house, and brought a few knives of yellow paper, and said, "Come with me." ”

Lao Wei Tou walked in front, although he was less than sixty years old, his body was a little rickety, and he didn't walk fast. Sun Erpang and I didn't talk anymore and walked quietly behind.

When he arrived at the shade of a hillside, the things in Old Weitou's hands suddenly fell to the ground.

I secretly said in my heart that it was not good, and I looked around Lao Wei's head, only to see that the place where the baby's body was originally buried seemed to have been dug up by something, and the earth was piled up around, revealing the empty small coffin inside.

The corpse is gone!
