Chapter 225: Soul Fruit Coffin
Although my grandmother was afraid to see the corpse, she couldn't do anything at this time, it must be a kind of evil magic at the moment, and she didn't know what to do if she didn't see it with her own eyes.
My grandmother walked over with courage, and at this time, my grandfather and Xinyangzi stood in front of the child's corpse.
My grandfather was more bold, and when he saw my grandmother coming, he wiped the mud from the child's body and face with his hands.
When my grandfather finished wiping it, my grandmother looked down at the child's corpse and gasped. This hawthorn tree is a single root, straight and straight out of the child's right eye socket, the whole child swells the child's eye socket, and the root of the tree is still red, blood red and blood red, just like the child's brain blood grows. The child's left eye socket is a black hole, and it seems that the beads of the eyes inside have been gouged out when it was buried.
Seeing this scene, my grandmother's face turned pale, she didn't dare to imagine what kind of person could do such a hand, but what my grandmother couldn't imagine was still to come.
At this time, Xin Yangzi spoke, "Bai Xiangu, this child seems to have something in his belly, and when he hugged him, he felt that there seemed to be a hard object in his belly. ”
When my grandmother heard this, her face turned even paler, which was almost at her limit, and she turned her face to look at Xinyangzi and then at my grandfather, and said timidly: "Then, then untie his clothes and take a look." ”
The clothes on the child's body are basically rotten, not so much untied as torn.
Three times five divided by two, the clothes were torn, and the three of them were all dumbfounded when they saw it, not only my grandmother, but even my grandfather and Xin Yangzi, the two big men, frowned.
I saw that there was a large hole in the child's belly that was sewn with fine hemp rope, hitting the chest all the way to the lower abdomen, and the stitches were messy and thick, obviously cut open and hastily sewn.
The three of them looked at each other, stopped for a while, and then my grandfather squatted down, put his hand on the child's belly, pressed it, and said, "This child really has something in his belly, hard, like someone put it in." He turned to my grandmother and asked, "Zhi'er, what do you think of this?" ”
My grandmother's face turned pale, and she hesitated for a while, then asked my grandfather, "What do you think should be done, brother?" ”
My grandfather rubbed his nose with the hand that had just touched the child's belly, and said, "I see, I need to cut the child's belly open and see what is inside." ”
My grandmother's face turned even paler when she heard this, in fact, my grandmother thought the same in her heart, but she couldn't say it. My grandmother nodded silently when she heard my grandfather say this.
Without waiting for my grandfather to turn around, Xin Yangzi said: "It's better to go to the front to find Dayou, your legs and feet are inconvenient." With that, Xinyangzi left.
At this time, my grandmother looked at the corpse of the child on the ground, with a look of regret, and said in her mouth: "This child, I'm afraid it is the son of the southern barbarian......
My grandfather didn't know about the relationship between Dayou and the Nanbanzi, so he asked my grandmother who the Nanban was, and my grandmother told him briefly about Dayou and the Nanbanzi.
After listening to this, my grandfather looked at the corpse of the child on the ground, smashed his mouth, and said, "If it is really the son of the southern barbarian, could this be done by the southern barbarian?" ”
My grandmother nodded, sighed again, and said: "Our father once said a word, hatred becomes crazy, resentment becomes a demon, I see that the southern barbarian son because of the death of his son, he has a demon barrier in his heart, and he made his son's body like this, because he wants to take revenge on the Dayou couple." ”
My grandfather looked at the child's corpse again and asked, "What did he do, how can this child grow a tree in his eyes?" ”
My grandmother thought for a while and said, "There is a kind of evil art in southern Xinjiang, burying a living child into the soil and suffocating to death, then digging it out and cutting a small hole in the child's belly, putting in a sacrificial fruit tree seed, and then burying the child in the soil, and waiting for the seed to grow into the fruit tree and bear fruit, and eating the fruit can give birth to children, I heard that the three souls of those dead children are attached to those fruits, burying girls will give birth to girls, burying boys will give birth to boys......" My grandmother frowned and glanced at the child's corpse again, and then said: " This is very similar to that kind of southern Xinjiang evil art, but this fruit tree actually grew out of the child's eyes, and there was such a big cut on the stomach, I am afraid it is a similar evil art. ”
When my grandmother said this, Xinyangzi returned from the front, scissors in her hand. My grandfather took the scissors from him and looked at my grandmother, who pursed her lips and said, "Cut it." ”
My grandfather half-squatted and half-knelt in front of the child's corpse, put the scissors blade into the child's cut belly, the blade picked up a hemp rope, the craftsmanship was hard, click, my grandmother suddenly closed her eyes, and then, click, my grandmother didn't dare to look, just listening to the sound felt particularly terrifying, my grandmother didn't dare to imagine what the hemp rope would be like after all the hemp rope was cut, the child's belly would be like.
My grandfather finally cut all the hemp rope sewn on the child's belly, and let out a "huh" in his mouth.
When my grandmother opened her eyes, she saw the scissors at my grandfather's feet, and my grandfather was on his knees with both hands on the ground...... It actually reached into the child's belly, and his shoulders shrugged, as if he was digging something in the child's belly. When my grandmother saw this, her scalp tightened and she almost fainted.
I tried to stop my grandfather in fear, but at that moment, my grandfather came out of the child's belly...... Pulled out a bloody thing from the child's stomach, my grandmother didn't see what it was, her ability to bear it had reached its limit, her eyes were dark, and she fainted directly......
I don't know how long later, my grandfather's anxious cry came from my ears, "Zhi'er, Zhi'er......" At the same time, there was a strange smell in the nostrils, followed by a pain in the person under the nose, my grandmother shivered suddenly, woke up, and saw my grandfather's two hands that had taken out the child's belly, one on his chin, and the other on his own person......
My grandmother screamed, almost didn't throw up, raised her arm to put my grandfather's two hands, and punched my grandfather in the chest, angrily, "What are you doing!" ”
My grandfather was stunned by my grandmother for a moment, and said with a blank face: "Wake you up." ”
My grandmother glared at him fiercely, and then looked at his hands, and was stunned for a moment, just now I saw my grandfather take out a bloody thing from the child's stomach, why is there no blood on his hands?
My grandmother hurriedly raised her arm and rubbed her whole face, and asked my grandfather, "What did you just pull out of that child's belly!" ”
My grandfather laughed and said, "Take out what?" You can't guess it......" My grandmother glared at him coldly, and when my grandfather saw this, he hurriedly continued: "I took out a red coffin from the child's belly, you said that it is rare or not, it is all coffins with people in the belly, this ...... There was a coffin in the belly of the person...... "Saying that, my grandfather realized with his eyes where my grandmother was looking at the child, and my grandmother realized at this time that she was no longer on the side of the child's corpse, but on the edge of the vegetable garden, with her back against a big stone, half lying and half sitting on the ground, about two feet away from the child's corpse.
My grandmother gave herself the courage to look at the child's corpse from a distance. At this time, Xin Yangzi was squatting next to the child's corpse to check something, and next to his feet, there was a small blood-red coffin, looking at the head, less than a foot, just enough to fit into the child's belly.
My grandfather said at this time: "The intestines in the child's stomach are gone, there is an empty shell, not only a small coffin is placed in it, but also filled with some messy things, like grass, but I and Xinyangzi don't know what kind of grass they are......" My grandfather said to himself, but he didn't see that my grandmother's face had changed greatly, covering her mouth with one hand, and it was estimated that she couldn't eat for the past two days.
My grandmother waved her hand at my grandfather, not wanting him to say any more, and after suppressing the nausea in her heart, she paused for a moment and asked my grandfather, "What's in that little red coffin?" ”
My grandfather replied, "I haven't opened it yet, I'm talking to Xinyangzi about opening it when you wake up." ”
My grandmother waved her hand at my grandfather again and said, "Go and open it, I guess it's a wooden figure inside." ”
My grandfather glanced at my grandmother, didn't speak, walked to the child's corpse on crutches, and said a few words to Xinyangzi, and the two of them picked up the red coffin and looked at it, it seemed that the red coffin was very tightly sealed, and they were studying how to open it.
The two of them studied for a while, and my grandfather turned back to my grandmother and asked, "Zhi'er, this coffin lid is sealed with red wax, there won't be any evil ghost sealed in it, right?" ”
My grandmother replied, "Open it, there will be no evil spirits in it." ”
My grandfather and Xin Yangzi muttered a few more words, and the two of them quickly opened the lid of the coffin, and the two of them looked inside and came to my grandmother with the coffin.
Before getting the coffin, my grandmother looked inside, and as she said, there was a wooden figure slightly smaller than the coffin, but this wooden figure only had a body and no head, and was wearing a cloth yellow robe, which was full of strange red runes.
My grandfather looked at the coffin and asked my grandmother, "What does this mean?" ”
My grandmother glanced at the hawthorn tree near the child's eyes, then at the headless figure in the coffin, and lowered her head in contemplation.
After a long time, my grandmother sighed, raised her head and said, "This lipstick coffin is used to collect the spirits, and the child's seven spirits are on top of this headless wooden man, and in order to prevent the seven spirits from falling apart, they are sealed with a red coffin." We have three souls and seven souls, three souls in the brain, seven souls in the body, after death, the three souls out of the body, the seven souls are scattered in the body, and rot together with the body. This child, the three souls are born with the fruit tree as fruits, but the seven souls are not dispersed, which causes his three souls to not rest in peace, the child born from eating this fruit, the child's three souls will carry the memories of the previous life, and will come out of the child's body to find their own seven spirits, and the ghost of the child who has a lot of trouble at home is actually the soul of their own child, and it is also the soul of this child......" After speaking, my grandmother sighed.
My grandfather and Shin Yangzi looked at her blankly, and neither of them seemed to be able to understand. Finally, Xin Yangzi asked my grandmother, "Bai Xiangu, what do you think should be done?" ”
