Drink, drink...... I could have stuffed a potato in my mouth, petrified.

The sky has been stained with thick ink, the night net has covered the whole land, and it has also shrouded my heart, I don't know how I walked home, at first I felt sorry for my uncle, then I was puzzled, and then I was afraid, my dear uncle just drank Xiao Hei's blood, is my dear uncle a legendary vampire? Would that suck human blood? My classmate mysteriously told her about vampires, and zombies, and my grandmother and aunt obviously hid from me for a long time, I'm afraid it started when I raised a black cat, and I remember it for a while, and there have been several cats at home, all of which are pure black, and Xiao Hei was last year when the grandmother asked someone else to bring it over, saying that it must be black, and I only liked black cats at the time, but I never thought that this cat would encounter today's situation.

When the front foot entered the door, the grandmother followed me and called me into the room with a solemn expression, "Xuanzi, the grandmother's greatest wish is that you can grow up healthily." ”

I tilted my head and saw that the grandmother stroked her forehead with her dry hand, her eyes were full of haggardness, I climbed onto the grandmother's knees, put my arms around her neck and comforted her, "Grandma, Xuanzi will grow up healthy, don't worry, tell Sù Xuanzi, uncle is fine, right?" ”

The grandmother pressed her throat, "The last person the grandmother wants to tell about this is you!" She sighed deeply and said, "Alas, your uncle is the pride of the sky, and his future is bright, but he has contracted something that should not be infected, and he has made more and more diseases, and he has cured other people's diseases, but he can't save himself, and he is afraid that others will find out that the doctor himself has a problem, so he came back in pain." ”

"What did my uncle get into?" Really, bitten by a vampire?

"That thing."

"The thing?" I pulled the ears of the grandmother, why did the grandmother refuse to say what it was?

"Ghosts." The grandmother endured and endured, and finally said the word.

I let out an "ah-" sound, frightened. I'm afraid of ghosts, and I'm afraid of wolves. In the countryside, the word "ghost" is a terrible taboo for children, and for crying, naughty, and disobedient, one is scared, because every child is afraid. I haven't seen it, but no one is interested in seeing it. I've seen the city on TV, and I know that my parents live in that bright place, and although it's bright, I can't see or touch it, because I live in a rural area where it's dark at night, and I'm most afraid of hearing this. I don't know why the family milk still sued me for this bloody truth, the family milk can be biased towards me, saying that this is a disease, and cat blood is needed as a medicine, but the family milk still sued me, my cold hair stood up from head to toe, and I felt that there were eyes behind me looking at me, so I hugged the family milk tightly and whimpered.

The grandmother told me that my uncle was a powerful character, and many gods were helpless, and when they were sick, they could only rely on cat blood to support, and they had to be pure black cats, but the number of times recently was increasing, and they committed it every few days, and when they committed it, they only fell to the ground, convulsions and talked nonsense, similar to sheep epilepsy, but it was much more deadly than that.

I anxiously asked, "What about the old man?" Isn't the old man very powerful! can make everyone believe that I will live better here! ”

The grandmother pinched my face, "It's not big or small, Mr. Gao is an elder, don't call it that!" Then a trace of disheartenness crossed his eyes, "The way to drink cat blood is provided by the old gentleman, and he said that he can't help, and he can't help until the time is ripe." ”

"When?" As soon as I heard that there was hope, I was motivated.

"The old gentleman said that it depends on the opportunity, and he doesn't know where the opportunity is, and he doesn't know if Yin'er can hold on until that time......"

"Grandma...... "Uncle must be able to!"

"Xuanzi, this matter must not be spread outside, now your uncle is a good doctor in the eyes of the people, when he knows that he himself also has a strict disease, he will look down on him, and even worse things will happen, and his reputation may be ruined, this is not a glorious thing, people are terrible." The family milk is a little helpless.

I held my cheeks and wondered, "But my uncle is so good and has saved many people, why would he ...... if others know about it?"

"You are still young, you don't understand this society, even if you have done a lot of good things, once others know that you have done a bad thing, you will be sent to hell, even if your uncle will not do anything wrong when he is sober, but there is no guarantee that some people will not take advantage of this to suppress, when you grow up, you must remember the words of your grandmother, you must leave three points of white space in life and work, it is not that you are insincere, it's just, don't tell your family wealth to be sù others, let others catch the shortcomings, maybe you don't understand now, you will understand in the future." My grandmother said a lot of things at once, I didn't seem to understand, but I think it should be very reasonable, I remembered, to be a man to leave three points blank. And also...... Give Xiao Hei more fishing. The next day, my uncle brought meat to my grandmother as usual, and stuffed me with a sugar gourd with a smile, it seems that what happened yesterday was an illusion, if it was before, I wouldn't have noticed it at all, there was an indescribable bitterness behind my uncle's smile, I felt sorry for him, and prayed to God to bless me, all I could do was to fish for Xiao Hei.

Most of the residents near my grandmother's house are my favorite, including my neighbors' grandparents. Grandpa and grandma is a retired old man, the Xue family, both of them are the old teachers in the primary school I went to, but I retired early before I went in, their family and the grandmother's family are only separated by a small road, grandpa and grandma have three sons and two daughters, the three sons have become a family, in front of the grandmother's house in a row to make three houses, the old man's eldest daughter and youngest daughter are married in the town, very close to Longyan Village, five children also have their own children, in the eyes of the old people in the village, such a big family is very happy, full of children and grandchildren, They all live together, and they can take care of something, but if their daughter marries far away or something, it will be difficult to deal with any emergency.

I am very envious of such a big family, often shameless to visit the door, grandpa grandma every time she sees me, her eyes are smiling, happily take out candy and stuff it to me, and I like to listen to grandpa and grandma tell stories more than the love of candy, I like to listen to ghost stories, but I am afraid of being embarrassed, so I pull Sister Fangfang together to strengthen my courage. Sister Fangfang is the daughter of the eldest son of her grandfather and grandmother, Xue Fangfang, my biggest impression of her is that she is quiet and quiet, not very talkative, and always smiling and watching me play with my friends. The ghost stories floating out of the mouths of grandpa and grandma are thrilling and interesting, exciting and fun, and over time, grandchildren and grandchildren of grandpa and grandma are attracted to listen to them together, forming an irregular ghost story meeting.

One day, the grandmother next door came to visit the door, and she came to complain that a snake was found in the house, and the grandmother said, "Isn't it nice to have a snake?" Eat mice. ”

"Yes, there are no rats anymore, I remember that you used to have the most rats in your house, and there were rat holes everywhere! When did it start to be gone? It seems that Xiao Xuanzi was born that year, and a lot of mice died! Xiao Xuanzi was born during the New Year, that New Year's Month, this piece is full of dead mice, that smell......"

"Xiaozhao his grandmother, you remember wrong, it's been so many years, you can't forget, remember, that's a few years later!" Before she could finish speaking, she asked the grandmother to correct it.

"Huh? Look at my memory! "The house is a rat hole, so why does the family tell me that I am a snake hole? What year did so many rats die? If it was the year I was born, why didn't my grandmother tell me? It has nothing to do with me, what are you doing so taboo?

At the time, I was still in elementary school, and I would fish for lobsters with my friends after school, and the children also liked to gossip, so I decided to ask. I tied the earthworm to the line and put it in the water," Xiao Ming. ”

It is said that everyone has a person named Xiao Ming next to him, and there is also a Xiao Ming next to me, who is the son of Mr. Teacher's family, and his father teaches in our primary school, if there is such a thing, he should remember that Xiao Ming just caught a frog, and put it back in the pond, and then jumped to my side, "Xuanzi, didn't you come with your ball?" "Qiuqiu is a duck raised by my grandmother, and my grandmother only has one duck, so I bring it over when I fish for lobsters, and catch one and eat one.

"Qiuqiu is not hungry today, Xiao Ming, have you heard that a lot of rats died during the Spring Festival one year?"

"Nope." He wiped his sweat.

I flicked my stick, "Then go back and ask your dad, help me ask." ”

"My dad has the worst memory, he can't remember anything but the day of the week......"

"Forget it." Maybe I thought about it too much, and after listening to the story too much, I became suspicious, so I quickly forgot about it, and happily went lobster fishing again.

My grandfather and grandmother's children have always been making a living in the local area, and when I was in the fourth grade of primary school, the eldest son of the old man went to work in a coastal city. The eldest son's family adheres to family planning and has only one daughter, my favorite sister Xue Fangfang. One day after school at noon, I saw her crouching at the back door of her house crying.

"Sister Fangfang, why are you crying? Didn't you go to school in the morning? I've been waiting for you for a long time after school. I watched in amazement as she hugged her knees, sobbing and answering her questions. I was just about to appease her, when I caught a glimpse of someone hurrying in and out of my grandfather's and grandmother's house, and when I looked up, I saw that it was his second uncle, eldest aunt, and ...... Xue Zhao, the son of the second uncle...... What happened? I hurriedly ran in, and saw that the house was full of people, grandpa and grandma except for the eldest son's children were there, daughters-in-law and granddaughters were all waiting inside, and nearby villagers, the house was full of people, the house where grandpa and grandma lived was a big room, and two rooms were separated by a cloth curtain in the middle, and the cloth curtain was gone, I saw my grandfather sitting on the bed stupidly, the grandmother guarding the bedside, and ...... Grandma lying on the bed.

Mother-in-law...... Are you sick? I have never seen such an angry grandma, she usually smiles, and always asks: "Xuanzi, do you want to eat sugar, grandma has a lot of food here." Grandma was lying on the bed, her eyes closed, and she didn't move. I have never seen such an expressionless grandfather, grandfather's hearty laughter often leads me to listen to the story hairy I feel a lot easier, at this time grandfather, blankly looking at the grandma on the bed, he didn't speak, the room was silent, I saw everyone quietly wiping tears, couldn't help but call, "Grandma, what's wrong with grandma?" ”

I was pulled home by the grandmother, who touched my head and said to me sternly: "Grandma is sick, don't bother her during this time, you know?" ”

"Is it very strict?" I saw a lot of people.

The grandmother sighed, "When people are old, they don't know when they will be able to get up." ”

I suddenly burst into tears, "Sister Fangfang, do they all know?" ”

"That's what your sister Fangfang saw, the grandmother actually looks at your grandma when she gets up in the morning." The grandmother sat on the chair, and I sat on her lap. "In the morning, the family got up to cook breakfast, picked up firewood at the door, and saw your grandma walking in a hurry with a bucket of clothes, and she took a big step, Xuanzi, she usually walks slowly, and when she walks a little faster, she will be crooked, this time there must be a reason."

"Xuanzi doesn't understand, my grandmother, I also have a problem walking fast? Home milk, why? ”
