"Why are you going back tomorrow to clean up so early?" Mu Yunxuan's mother asked there.
"Oh, I'm afraid I'll forget some things and pack them up in advance, by the way, Mom, let's go to the supermarket to buy some things for my grandfather and the two of them." Mu Yunxuan said as he cleaned up.
"I've bought it all, I went to buy it with your dad just now, you can take it tomorrow." Mu Yunxuan's mother said.
Mu Yunxuan nodded hurriedly, and the next morning Mu Yunxuan's father drove him to the station.
"Don't trouble your grandfather and them when you go back, I'll go back with your mother in a few days, and I'll accompany your grandfather and them if it's okay, you know." Mu Yunxuan's father instructed.
"Oops! I know it, okay, I'm leaving, don't think about me, daddy. Mu Yunxuan said mischievously, and then walked to the station.
Mu Yunxuan took a car for more than two hours to the entrance of Shishi Village, and two old people stood outside the commissary at the entrance of the village, stretching their necks to look at the bus.
Mu Yunxuan got out of the car and rushed to the two old men with large bags and small bags, shouting as he ran: "Grandpa, grandma, I'm back." ”
At this time, when the two old men saw that it was Mu Yunxuan, a smile appeared on their faces, Mu Yunxuan ran to them, and Mu Yunxuan's grandfather hugged him and said, "Does the little rabbit cub miss grandpa?" ”
Mu Yunxuan said mischievously: "I think about it every day, I can even dream of grandpa at night." ”
Grandpa closed his mouth happily after hearing this: "Let's go, put the things on Grandpa's Daben, go home and ask your grandma to make something to eat for you." ”
Mu Yunxuan nodded expectantly and put the things on his grandfather's Daben (old three-wheeled). Then he came to his grandfather's house on this old three-wheeler, who belonged to the old man of the old naughty boy, and his personality was sometimes quite eccentric like a child.
There are about 50 families in Stone Village, the small village is relatively remote, and the roads are potholes, but the environment and air here are absolutely top-notch.
Mu Yunxuan opened the door, and the big black raised by his grandfather saw Mu Yunxuan and shouted.
"Grandpa's big black has grown up a lot." Mu Yunxuan said and went to Da Hei, who fell to the ground and asked Mu Yunxuan to touch, "Hey! You stinky black didn't you forget me? Mu Yunxuan was playing with the big black there, and after a while, the old village chief Zhang Sanfeng came to see Mu Yunxuan anxiously and said, "Xiao Xuan, is your grandfather at home?" ”
"At home, what's wrong Grandpa Zhang?" Mu Yunxuan asked curiously.
"Hey! Don't mention it, I'll go to your grandfather first, and I'll talk to you later. After speaking, Zhang Sanfeng walked forward quickly, and kept shouting: "Lao Mu, Lao Mu is coming out, something happened to my house, you go over and help me take a look." ”
Grandpa walked out and saw Zhang Sanfeng who looked panicked and asked, "What's the matter, Lao Zhang, what's wrong?" ”
"I ...... My granddaughter seems to have fallen into an evil spirit, so go over and take a look. Zhang Sanfeng said anxiously
"Let's go! Go to your house right away. Grandpa said, and then walked briskly to the door with Zhang Sanfeng.
"Grandpa, where are you going? I'll go with you. Mu Yunxuan looked at his grandfather and said, grandpa might have been too anxious and made a gesture to go, and Mu Yunxuan followed them.
When he arrived at Zhang Sanfeng's house, his granddaughter Xiaoxue was lying on the kang with a towel on her head, and Zhang Sanfeng's wife kept changing the towel for Xiaoxue.
"When did this start?" Grandpa asked them.
Zhang Sanfeng said: "The day before yesterday, we went up the mountain to pull firewood, just her parents went to the town to buy things, we were afraid that she would be bored at home and led her up the mountain, to the mountain I asked him to wait for us at the plow She nodded, after a while I didn't worry about coming back, and when I came back, I found that Xiaoxue was gone."
I panicked immediately, I called my wife down, and the two of us started looking, and later found it in the snow of the children's mountain not far from the plow, and when I found it, Xiaoxue was in a coma, and when I got home, I began to have a high fever.
I thought it was frozen, so I asked the doctor to take a look, and then I began to give Xiaoxue a fever injection, and I still didn't wake up after two days, just now I heard Xiaoxue speak and she said, "You let me go home, I will give you my bear." "As soon as I heard it, Xiaoxue felt like she was in an evil spirit, so I ran to your house to look for you."
"Child's Mountain is also a forbidden place for us, how can you let her run there, that place used to be a mass grave, and a lot of dead babies were thrown there, it is estimated that your granddaughter is a lonely ghost who bumped into it." Mu Ye said there.
When Mu Yunxuan was a child, he heard his grandfather say that you should not mess around in that place, there are monsters that will eat people, and this time it seems that that place is really evil.
"Then what should I do, I have to find a way to save my granddaughter, Lao Mu." Zhang Sanfeng said anxiously.
Grandpa thought for a while and said, "It's okay, I guess Xiaoxue may have been hooked by the soul of the child there, this is not in a hurry, you find out Xiaoxue's favorite bear, and buy or make some toys out of paper, tonight at seven o'clock the two of us go there and burn those things to the children there, and they will release your granddaughter." ”
Zhang Sanfeng said with a sad face: "Okay! As long as I can release my granddaughter and let me give him the house. ”
Grandpa smiled and comforted Zhang Sanfeng and said, "Brother is fine, I told Xiaoxue my fortune for a long time, so you can play with Xiaoxue as a child." ”
Zhang Sanfeng was still smoking there with a sad face.
Mu Yunxuan and his grandfather stayed there for a while and then went home, walking on the way Mu Yunxuan said to his grandfather: "Grandpa, can you take me there tonight, I want to go and see what you do, I haven't seen you catch a ghost when I'm so old." ”
"If you want to go, you can go, I don't know what to do, I'm just a person who knows a little bit about yin and yang, it's okay to tell fortunes and look at feng shui, catch your grandfather and I want to live a few more years." Grandpa looked at Mu Yunxuan and said.
Mu Yunxuan asked again: "Then grandpa, do you know Li Xianren?" He knows you. ”
Grandpa scratched his head: "What is he doing?" Li Xianren? I don't have that name among my friends."
Mu Yunxuan also scratched his head and said, "Huh? No, how does he know your name, my father's name? He said that he had been born and died with you before, and this can be forgotten, he is a Mr. Yin and Yang. ”
Grandpa stopped and sat on the stone and began to think about it, and suddenly said a name: "Li Yiren, this calf, we almost lost our lives several times back then." ”
Mu Yunxuan hurriedly nodded and said, "Yes!" Right! It's him, he is now the most famous Mr. Yin and Yang in Ping'an County, there are many rich people, and the officials all ask him to see feng shui or something. ”
"Haha, this kid is a good mix, how did you know him?" Grandpa asked Mu Yunxuan with a smile.
"I met by chance, by the way, grandpa, why didn't you develop with the county back then, if you developed in the county back then, you wouldn't be worse than him." Mu Yunxuan looked at his grandfather with a puzzled face and said.
"I didn't want to develop in the city at the beginning, because I didn't like the noise in the city, and second, your grandfather didn't let me, so I didn't plan to stay in the city." Grandpa said.
Mu Yunxuan thought to himself that grandpa Tai's thinking was really strange, everyone hoped that their children would have a future in the future, and he actually let his grandfather farm at home, there was really no one.
Mu Yunxuan and his grandfather came home, grandma had already cooked the meal, all of which Mu Yunxuan loved to eat, Mu Yunxuan washed his hands and ran to the table to devour it, maybe he hadn't eaten grandma's cooking for too long.
After eating, Mu Yunxuan went to play with his little friend, first went to his best hair small, Xiaofeng's family unfortunately Xiaofeng was still in the county's home and didn't come back, Mu Yunxuan came to Xiaohu's house again, and met him at the gate of Xiaohu's house.
Xiaohu was holding a waterline rope and a sickle in his hand, and when he saw Mu Yunxuan, he smiled and said, "Brother Xiaoxuan, when did you come back?" ”
Xiaohu is two years younger than Mu Yunxuan, he is a simple and honest good child, his family is not rich, he dropped out of school in the second year of junior high school because of his poor study, saying that he doesn't want to put too much pressure on his parents, and now he has been staying at home.
Mu Yunxuan smiled and said, "I just came back today, what are you doing here?" ”
"Hey, hey! I'm going to jump on the ground. Xiaohu said with a smirk.
Mu Yunxuan scratched his head and said, "What are you doing with that thing?" ”
"Jumping big bird, that meat is old and fragrant, you go with me, jump to the two of us." Mu Yunxuan thought about it, anyway, it's okay to go for a walk with you.
The two of them came to a mountain facing the sun, Xiaohu took out a sickle and rope and began to jump there, Mu Yunxuan couldn't help but watch there, and after a while, Xiaohu was done by Xiaohu, but this thing called a ground jumper looked very strange.
The ground jumper is mainly to find a tree with good elasticity to cut off the top and leave the trunk below, and the ground will be made with a stone slab similar to the front of the grave, and the shape of the hollow with the stone slab is the place where the candles are placed on the tomb in the countryside. Xiaohu put the bud rice grain in this mouth. After bouncing the ground, Xiaohu said that he would go home and wait, and there would be a harvest tomorrow.
Mu Yunxuan returned to his grandfather's house It was almost seven o'clock, and at this time, his grandfather had already gone to Zhang Sanfeng's house to prepare to go to Children's Mountain.
"Where are you going, your grandfather has been looking for you for a long time, and he said that if you go, go to your grandfather Zhang's house quickly." Grandma Mu said there.
Mu Yunxuan nodded and walked out, and just when he walked to the gate, he heard his grandmother calling him, and he looked back.
Grandma said to Mu Yunxuan: "Your grandfather is looking for you and going into the house to answer the phone." ”
Mu Yunxuan hurriedly ran to the house and received a call: "Xiao Xuan, I came too much just now, I forgot to take some things, you go to the cabinet in the West House and bring me my small box, we will wait for you at the bottom of the mountain, hurry up." ”
Mu Yunxuan hung up the phone and ran to the Westinghouse, and found the cabinet that his grandfather said, this cabinet was locked before, but this time the chain head is gone.
Mu Yunxuan opened the cabinet and found the box, when Mu Yunxuan picked up the box, he found that there was a diary and several ancient books under the box, Mu Yunxuan was a little curious, but he didn't open those books to read, because he was afraid of missing the time on his grandfather's side, so he picked up the box and ran out.
Mu Yunxuan came to the bottom of the children's mountain and saw his grandfather and Zhang Sanfeng smoking, with a lot of toys and paper money in front of them.
Mu Yunxuan carried the box on his back and said to his grandfather: "Grandpa, let's go, I've brought all the things." ”
Grandpa nodded, got up and took these toys and walked up the mountain, walked halfway up the children's mountain, saw a big stinky puddle, grandpa told Mu Yunxuan that this was a mass grave, grandpa put two white candles on the ground, lit three incense, and then put a gourd in front of the incense. Put the toys together and draw a circle.
After taking Mu Yunxuan and Zhang Sanfeng to kneel down and kowtow, Grandpa said: "A few days ago, my friend Zhang Sanfeng's granddaughter unintentionally broke into the place where the brothers and sisters rested, I was really embarrassed, and today I specially brought some toys and coins to ask you to let Xiaoxue go home with us." In the future, every year today, I will come to burn money and toys for the bit. After saying that, Grandpa, they knocked one more, then stood up and set the toys and paper money on fire.
When those things were burned, the gourd suddenly panicked, and the grandfather packed up his things, picked up the gourd and said to Mu Yunxuan and the others: "Keep going down the mountain, don't look back when you hear anything." ”
Grandpa walked at the end, Mu Yunxuan took the lead in the middle, and the three of them walked down the mountain in a straight line, walking about a hundred meters away, Mu Yunxuan heard the sound of children playing behind him, Mu Yunxuan wanted to look back, and as soon as his head was about to turn, he was shouted back by his grandfather, and walked for more than 30 minutes to Zhang Sanfeng's house.
Grandpa took out the gourd and opened it, put the mouth of the gourd on Xiaoxue's nose, Xiaoxue suddenly made a big inhalation movement, and then stretched her waist and did it, poked her eyes, looked at us, and then said to Zhang Sanfeng's wife: "Grandma, I'm hungry." ”
Zhang Sanfeng's wife smiled and said, "Alas! Grandma, I'll make you something to eat. ”
Zhang Sanfeng hurriedly walked over and asked, "Xiaoxue is okay?" ”
Xiaoxue scratched her head and looked at Zhang Sanfeng with a cute face and said, "Grandpa, I had a very strange dream just now, I dreamed that many children were playing with me, and then I was hungry and I told them that I wanted to go home, but they didn't let me,
He said that the house was full of bad people and the children were not happy at home, he said that they didn't have a home and were happy every day, and I was really hungry in the end, they still wouldn't let me go, and then I gave them my little bear and they let me go, and the little bear was bought for me by my father, and I didn't want to give it to them, but I was too hungry. As she spoke, Xiaoxue pouted as if she was about to cry.
At this time, Zhang Sanfeng said: "Good boy, wait for grandpa to ask your father to buy you a better one than that." ”
Xiaoxue pouted, wiped her tears, and said yes.
Grandpa walked over and cared about Xiaoxue for a while and said to Zhang Sanfeng: "Lao Zhang, don't let Xiaoxue go anywhere in the future, and don't forget to go there to burn paper and toys every year today." ”
Zhang Sanfeng nodded, and grandpa looked at the time and it was not early, so he took Mu Yunxuan home.
