"What? You, you ......"

I lowered my head, rolled my eyes up and peeked at my grandmother, my grandmother's lower lip was trembling at this time, it seemed that she was angry with me, and she was angry, and she was so angry that there was only "you, you, you" in her mouth, and she couldn't say anything else. %し

Finally, Grandma sighed lightly, as if relieved, and then said with a look of self-reproach: "Forget it, it's all my fault, you are still so young......" said and looked at my neck. My grandmother later told me that I pinched out five blood-red finger prints on Li Zhenghua's neck, and of course I couldn't see them myself.

Grandma walked up to me and touched my head.

I hurriedly explained to my grandmother, "Li Zhenghua is lying in the ditch, I can't pierce his heart, I want to turn him over, but he is too heavy, I can't turn over, I, I will prick his heart......"

Grandma nodded, "If you encounter this kind of thing again in the future, say hello to grandma in advance, do you know?" ”

"Got it."

Grandma turned her head to look at the mound and asked me, "Are there any shoe prints of Li Zhenghua in that ditch?" Where did the shoe prints go? ”

I didn't even think about it, I raised my hand and pointed to the east, and said, "Ran east." ”

Grandma looked east. Grandma has been standing on the west side of the mound, the mound is extremely high, and when she stands in Grandma's position, she can only see the west side, and the east side is completely invisible.

"Let's go to the east side of the dirt slope and have a look." Grandma said, pulling me up. We went around the edge of the mound to the east.

Looking at the mound to the east, there was a string of shoe prints from top to bottom, and it looked very hasty, and the soil layer in some places was kicked open a large area, and it seemed that Li Zhenghua climbed down the mound with a roll.

My grandmother pulled me around, and then looked to the east of the bridge, and there was an open field to the east, and there was nothing but wheat in the field. In the distance, there is the East Village, from which we can faintly see the houses in the village and the trees outside the village that have lost their leaves.

I can't figure it out at this time, the bridge here is about three or four miles away from the East Village, except for the wheat field in the middle is wasteland, as far as the eye can see, if Li Zhenghua really runs east, he should not have entered the village at this time, he should still be able to see him, but, how can there be no one?

I turned my head to look at my grandmother, who looked at the wheat field at this time, looking very calm, and I asked my grandmother, "Grandma, what should we do now?" ”

Grandma didn't speak, she raised her hand to take off the burden on her body, gently put it on the ground, and she herself squatted on the ground and untied the burden. Grandma's burden is rarely untied by her, and I really don't know what is in it.

I hurriedly squatted down and looked into the baggage, where there were many miscellaneous things, some wood, some paper, and some bottles and cans.

Grandma reached out and took out a small wine cup from inside, it was indeed a small wine cup, the kind that my father usually used to drink.

Grandma got up from the ground with the wine cup and turned around and walked to the mound. I didn't know what my grandmother was doing, so I got up from the ground and followed me to the mound.

Grandma bent down, grabbed a handful of loess from the mound and put it into a wine cup, then turned around and came to the burden again, took out a stick of incense from it, took out a match from her body and handed it to me, "Come, light the incense for grandma." ”

I struck a match and lit the incense, and my grandmother looked around to see if there was anyone around.

At this time, the sky was gloomy, with a slight northeast wind, and it was noon time to eat, and there was no one around, except for the occasional whistling car on the bridge.

Grandma withdrew her gaze and put the incense into the wine cup, which was placed in a flat place on the ground, and she bent down on her knees, then pressed her hands on the ground again, and barely knelt on the ground.

At this time, I completely understood what my grandmother was going to do, and she wanted to ask Shenxiang.

After kneeling on the ground, grandma straightened her body, took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and whispered in her mouth: "The sky is round, the ninth chapter of the law, the disciple offers incense, ask where the ghost is, there is an evil ghost possessed by Li Zhenghua today, please show the ancestor where the evil ghost is now......" After speaking, grandma closed her eyes and kowtowed.

I was watching from the side, and asked Shenxiang This grandmother has already taught me, how does the incense ask, how does the smoke come out, and I am already ripe in my heart.

Grandma kowtowed and opened her eyes, staring at the smoke coming out of the incense head, probably because of the wind around her, she saw the smoke coming out of the incense head flying in a mess, one left and one right, one east and one west.

Grandma frowned, turned her head to look at me, raised her hand to pull the incense out of the wine cup, and said to me: "Huang He, you go to the side and hide first, and then come back when grandma calls you." ”

Grandma's words surprised me, because some of these crafts in our family can't be shown to others when they are being operated, first, because someone next to you will cause you to be distracted, and second, if the person next to you is not pious enough, it will affect the probability of success of your rituals.

However, my grandmother told me to hide aside at this time, which is a bit too much to say, but I am also the future successor of this craft, and I will not affect the success of the Fa Rite.

Later, my grandmother told me that not only was my body heavy with yang energy, but also with evil energy, and when I stood in front of the god incense, the evil energy on my body would blow the smoke into a mess.

I stood still, but my grandmother looked at me and urged, "Hurry up." ”

I reluctantly answered, turned back to the west of the mound, and found a grass nest beside the mound, and I sat down in it. After waiting for about ten minutes, I heard my grandmother's shout, and I hurriedly got up from the grass nest and walked towards my grandmother.

By the time I got closer, my grandmother had put the cup back in the bag, and she had carried the bag on her back.

I asked my grandmother, "Grandma, did you ask out?" ”

Grandma didn't speak, but waved at me, and I walked quickly to her, and she pulled me along the path to the East Village.

After walking for about 200 meters, my grandmother stopped and glanced at the wheat field on the south side of the path.

The canals in the fields are very common, and most of them are open-air earth canals, but the water canals that my grandmother saw were connected with cement pipes, unless they were artificially smashed into the opening, or they were fully enclosed.

The canal is cylindrical in shape, with an inner diameter of about 60 or 70 centimeters. This kind of canal is also common in our area, but it is not used for watering the ground, but for draining water from the village.

The water level under us is very high, and when the Rose Spring is not dried up, the water in the well will fall to the ground after two meters of drying, and when it rains heavily, the water in the well will fall to the ground, and the low-lying areas of the village will be filled with stagnant water, and over time, the water in the pit will deteriorate and stink, resulting in an increase in mosquitoes. Later, the villagers tried to find a way to drain the water outside the village, and there was this kind of fully enclosed canal, and because the terrain here is high in the north and low in the south, this kind of canal is all in the south of the village. By this time, the groundwater level was not high, and the village did not need to drain the water outside.

As long as there is a hole in the middle of this kind of canal, you can climb in, sometimes I and Qiang Shun and they also get into it to "explore", the space inside is very small, you can't turn around and can't turn back when you get in, it's narrow and dark and terrifying, and the timid can't go far into it and cry.

Grandma took my hand after looking at the canal and walked along the wheat field towards the canal.

The canal was about 20 meters long, and my grandmother pulled me to search the canal and found us a big hole in the north.

Grandma immediately bent down and reached out to pick up a small piece of rag on the big mouth. I looked at the cloth, and it was a foreign cloth, not very good, black and blue. I thought about it, Li Zhenghua's pants seemed to be this color, and hurriedly said to my grandmother, "This looks like Li Zhenghua's body." ”

Grandma nodded and said, "Li Zhenghua got into this canal." As she spoke, Grandma looked up at the sky, the sky was gloomy, and it was probably about to snow, and she said, "It's not early, it's time for lunch, let's go back." ”

I hurriedly asked: "Then what should Li Zhenghua do, let's ignore him?" ”

Grandma looked at me and said, "Wait until lunch and ask your dad to come along, we can't do it." ”

After that, my grandmother pulled me away, and I asked, "What if he runs away?" ”

Grandma said: "He can't run, the sun is heavy during the day, he will hide here until the evening and then come out." ”

I nodded.

By the time I got home, my mom and dad had already eaten. Fortunately, my dad hasn't gone to the welding shop yet, grandma told my dad, my dad showed a little reluctance on his face, doing this kind of thing is not only not good to contribute, but also delaying work to earn money, a large family depends on him alone, but my dad didn't say anything, nodded and agreed.

After lunch, my grandmother asked me to wait with my dad for a while, saying that she was going to prepare something, and then my grandmother went into her back room.

At this time, Wang Sihe came, and when he heard that my father was going to find Li Zhenghua with my grandmother, he also came to the heart, he said that he had a day off on the mountain today, and he happened to have nothing to do.

After grandma came out of the back room, she saw that Wang Sihe was going to follow, so she nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, the more people who go, the better." ”

At this time, I glanced at the burden on my grandmother's body, and the burden was much more bulging than in the morning, and it seemed that a lot of things had been added to it.

My grandmother asked my dad to go to Ming Jun's house to see if Ming Jun's mule cart was at home, so he borrowed it for use.

Not long after my dad went, he not only borrowed the mule cart, but also pulled Ming Jun and his dad over Shuangxi. Ming Jun's father was a water tanker, and he often pulled a cart of large and small water tanks to the villages far east to sell. He didn't go out today when he saw that the weather was bad.

A group of people all sat on the mule cart, and Ming Jun and his father Shuangxi were in charge of driving the mule cart. At this time, the sky was completely overcast, and the northeast wind was blowing, and it was so cold that it would snow after a while.

Seeing this, grandma urged Shuangxi to drive the mule cart faster, grandma said that this kind of Tianyang qi is weak, and it will be bad for Li Zhenghua to run away if he goes late.

Shuangxi listened and picked up the whip and slapped it twice on the mule's buttocks, and the mule immediately trotted up and went straight to the East Village
