Chapter 51: The Wild Baby (text)
Although it was quite painful in it, the soul became a lot stronger in the tempering, and it was a daily torment at first, but then he slowly got used to it, and it was a big deal to cut it off and wait for him to grow it again.
Anyway, I was counting the autumn and winter here, and after counting a reincarnation, a few torturers took me out of here, and I didn't see the light of day for a long time, and when I came out, I felt that the outside was really not the same world.
When I came out, a few ghost soldiers were already waiting for me, and they took me directly to the Hall of Good and Evil, where Judge Cui said a few words to me, nothing else, just let me learn to be in the yang world and not make any more mistakes.
What I want is to find the second grandmother, settle the account she framed me, and find Meng Changqing and them for the rest, and don't care about anything else.
After that, they did not send me to the weak water, but sent me to the Huangquan Road, and when I arrived at the Ghost Gate, they said a few words to the torturers in front of the Ghost Gate, and then sent me out.
One side of the water and soil to support the other side, where to fight where you should go back, I went back from here to arrive at the land temple next to my grandfather's house.
When I arrived, it was night, and I couldn't see any farther, and it was really desolate in front of me, and the wormwood in front of the land temple was waist-deep, and no one took care of it.
I stopped here for a while, and then I walked to my grandfather's old house, one year in hell, the equivalent of six years outside, I don't know what has become of this mountain, I just hope that the damned ones are still alive.
I thought that this house had collapsed, but when I saw the situation of this house, I was overjoyed.
The roof of the house had been tiled with new tiles, and the house was surrounded by fresh mud, and at first glance it was clear that it had just been left by pulling grass.
I thought it was my grandfather who had returned, so I hurriedly knocked on the door, and after a while, the light in the side room came on, and it was still a dim gourd bulb.
When I was thinking about what posture to use to face my grandfather, the door was opened, but it was not my grandfather who opened the door, but Grandpa Ye.
Grandpa Ye was shocked when he saw me, scolded Huashengzi, and slammed the door shut, I reacted after a while, I am still a ghost now, and one year in hell, six years outside, they are all gray-haired, and the wind and candle are old, but I haven't changed much, how can I not scare them.
When I was about to knock on the door to explain again, Grandpa Ye suddenly opened the door, took a handful of wormwood and smoked at me, and scolded in his mouth: "Your family is dead and unstable, and those who should be reincarnated will be reincarnated, what are you doing in this mountain." ”
After the punishment in hell, he really didn't think much of a few strokes, so he stood aside and waited for him to finish pumping.
Grandpa Ye is already too old, and after ten or so strokes, he panted and eased up, and I took advantage of this time to say: "Grandpa Ye, I am Ye Hai, I am still yang." ”
"You're still a fart, you've been dead for years, why didn't you pay it back earlier." When Grandpa Ye saw me talking, he got up and scolded again.
I didn't know what words to use to explain, and when Grandpa Ye pumped me several times, seeing that he was almost out of breath, I hurriedly went into the house and poured him a glass of water.
Grandpa Ye saw me handing him water, and then gradually calmed down, and I asked what was going on, why did I come back suddenly.
I roughly told the second grandmother about framing me in hell, and Grandpa Ye heard it very mysteriously, but reluctantly accepted this statement, and asked why the second grandmother framed me.
"I don't know, I'm going to figure it out when I come back this time."
After that, Grandpa Ye let me into the house, and after entering, he said: "My house leaks when it rains, and it has collapsed a few days ago, so I repaired your grandfather's house and moved in yesterday." ”
I let out a sigh and asked, "Didn't Grandpa come back?" ”
"No, your master and the two of them came once a few years ago, and they brought your body back and buried it and left, and I will take you to see your grave tomorrow."
After chatting with Grandpa Ye for a while, he told me that everyone else in the village was still alive, but they were too old to work in the fields.
While we were chatting here, there was a whining sound from the nearby forest, and I listened and asked, "What is this called?" ”
"A wild baby, a fool, I don't know where he came from, these days he has been screaming around here every night, and once he beat the baby in the village, and he was kicked out, and he came back again, I went out to pick it up, afraid that he would steal things from the village at night." After Grandpa Ye finished speaking, he took a bamboo that had cracked into more than a dozen pieces at one end and walked out.
Usually when drying millet and other crops outside, there are often chickens to steal food, this bamboo is used to drive chickens, knock it will make a very noisy sound.
After Grandpa Ye went out, I walked around the room for a while, and the coffin that Grandpa prepared for himself was gone, I think it should have been used by me.
It's been six years, and the physical body is estimated to be rotten, so is it possible to survive in this state next?
Just when he was thinking about it, Grandpa Ye's shouting sounded on the side of the house, and after a while, Grandpa Ye came back with a bamboo, and most of the villagers in this village came back with him.
When they came in, I turned my head to take a look, they were all the same people as before, but they were too old, and their peers who had played with mud together when they were children had also grown up, all eighteen or nineteen years old, and there was a baby named He Fei who had even held a few months old baby in his arms.
As soon as they stood at the door, the little baby cried out, the little baby is pure-hearted, she can see what ordinary people can't see, and she can feel what ordinary people can't feel. I saw the little baby crying, and smiled a little embarrassedly.
These villagers are all my relatives, I called them one by one, until I finished calling, they didn't react, after all, they have been dead for six years, and they suddenly appeared, and they were as old as when they died, which was very weird.
"Haiwazi, do you have any wishes that have not been fulfilled, tell Grandma Zhang, Grandma Zhang will help you do it, you go to reincarnation, keep it like this, Grandma Zhang is uncomfortable."
The old grandmother's name is Zhang Ruifang, she is from my grandmother's generation, a lonely old man, now in her eighties, according to her generation, I want to call her Grandma Zhang.
I saw that her old eyes were full of tears, and I immediately felt warm, and people's hearts are not necessarily all bad.
After Grandma Zhang finished speaking, the other villagers stood outside the door and responded: "Yes, if you have something that has not been completed, or what are the shortcomings below, just tell us directly, which one in the village is not your relative, everyone will help." ”
When they had finished speaking, I went into the house and brought them some benches next to me and let them sit in the house.
I guess I was afraid of me, the village names waited for a long time before they dared to come in, and a few young men of my average size sat closer to me, and asked in disbelief: "It's the sixth year, and you haven't come back a few years ago?" ”
I repeated what I had explained to Grandpa Ye before, and after listening to it, they asked why the second grandmother wanted to frame me.
I shrugged my shoulders, this question can only be asked to the second grandmother herself.
After that, I talked to them about the interesting things in the underworld, and they listened to them as fascinated as they listened to the stories.
At one o'clock in the morning, they each returned, and when they left, they did not invite me to their house as I did when I was still alive, after all, I am a ghost now, and my identity is different.
I sat in this hall all night, and Grandpa Ye was old and frail, so he didn't sleep with me for long.
I was in a daze in the room, thinking about what to do next, it's been six years, Meng Changqing and Xiaoxiao don't know where they went, if you do the math, Meng Changqing should be 37 years old, as for Xiaoxiao, she is also 16 years old. If I'm still alive, I'm 18 years old.
After Grandpa Ye slept for about an hour, a dark shadow slowly disappeared at the door, and he probably didn't notice me when he came in, so he went directly to the room where I slept before, and stood in the corner of the wall and drooped his head.
Seeing him like this, I recognized him immediately, isn't this another Ye Hai besides me? It's been so many years, and it's still waiting for me here with that little bit of yin and yang paper.
Greed for money has come to this point, it is really rare, and I was really moved by his persistence.
I am a ghost person, I know the importance of money to ghosts, so I rummaged through the cabinets in Grandpa Ye's house and found it.
After finding about a hundred or so pieces of yellow paper, I left him alone, came out in the middle of the night with a lighter, went to his grave, and burned the yellow paper to him.
After burning, I ran to Xiaoxiao's father's grave and looked at it, his grave had become flat, and next to his grave, there was a new tomb that had only been built in recent years, which was only taken care of not long ago, and there was no weed on it.
We didn't pay attention to the tombstone, and our custom here is that if a child dies under the age of fifteen, there is no need to erect a tombstone, so I venture to guess that this grave is probably mine, but it is too shabby.
I've been watching here for a while, and I'm going to wait for tomorrow to come and dig it up, according to Meng Changqing's character, since he asked the underworld to resurrect me, he will definitely find a way to preserve my body.
After reading and preparing to go back, there were shouts from Grandpa Ye and other villagers in the village, probably chasing the foreign fool again.
After their shouting stopped, I returned to the village, and when I entered the house, Grandpa Ye was answering the phone.
Almost every household in the village now has PHS, only Grandpa Ye's house is still the old-fashioned landline, and the speaker he uses to call others to answer the phone has long been broken.
I waited for Grandpa Ye to answer the phone, and then asked him who called.
Grandpa Ye looked at me and said, "Your master is really a god, he just called and said that you will return to the sun in the next few days, and said that let's dig up your grave first and get the corpse out to disperse the corpse qi." ”
