Chapter 6: The Divine Stick
A few months later, my worst fears and fears still happened. As Grandpa said before, we will suffer disaster, and this is not true at all.
I don't know why Grandpa was able to figure it out months ago, but it all came true! The land of China, which had just calmed down from the war for not many years, was suddenly broken by the tide of the Cultural Revolution, and a war to break the four olds began, and all the ghosts, snakes and gods were regarded as counter-revolutionaries, and Chen Guodong, a well-known feng shui gentleman in our local area, naturally could not escape.
When the four old raids on Chenjia Town, my grandfather was beaten into a bull ghost and snake god, a big tumor of socialism, and became a typical character in the surrounding towns, and on the same day, the Red Guards from the county led the villagers to kidnap my grandfather, of course, including me.
When the Red Guards burst into the house, I was terrified. In the evening, the village held a public trial, and my grandfather and I were tied to the village hall to be criticized by the people!
The trial didn't end until midnight, and we were locked up in the damp, smelly cowshed, waiting for the next day's street fight.
All day we had no water to drink and no food to eat. In the second half of the night, the village party secretary secretly came to see us in the cowshed and gave us a few buns at the same time.
My grandfather begged the secretary to get me out, saying that I was just a child.
The branch secretary seemed very embarrassed, indeed, the situation at that time was that everyone had anything to do with us, who had the courage to protect us from such a big tumor? Isn't this my own death?
Later, the grandfather knelt in front of the branch book and begged for a while, and the branch secretary finally agreed!
The next day, my grandfather was kidnapped and sent to the streets of the town, and I was saved by the branch secretary's life. The old branch secretary is an old Red Army and an old revolutionary, and when he opened his body full of gunshot wounds, he saved me.
In this way, the grandfather was regarded as a typical example of the cow, ghost, snake and god, and was tied up by the five flowers to march in each village during the day, was scolded by the people pointing at the back, beating with fists and feet, and was dragged to the auditorium at night to do criticism, and only thrown back into the stinking cowshed in the middle of the night.
At that time, I washed my face with tears every day, guarding the empty house that I had raided, and now I feel pitiful when I think about it.
I begged the villagers to spare my grandfather, but the villagers, who had usually received his favor, were indifferent.
In the middle of the night, I would secretly go to bring food and drink to my grandfather, and every time we met, I would hug my head and cry.
After tossing like this for more than half a month, my grandfather has long lost the proud and leisurely look he used to have, his whole body is injured, he has lost a lot of weight, and the whole person looks very bald.
One night, as usual, I secretly ran to the cowshed to bring him food, and my grandfather told me solemnly that it might be difficult for him to survive this disaster, and then took out an ancient book from his body and handed it to me, asking me to keep it and study it more.
Hearing this, it was as if he was explaining what was going on behind me, but I was scared a lot, I cried and said that I would save him, but my grandfather told me not to do anything, if the fate of my grandfather and grandson is not over, I will have a chance to see him again.
Later, he told me that he was worried that there would be a big disaster in the village soon, and that he was worried that the village would build the road again, so he asked me to prevent them from building the road as much as possible.
I said, they are all going to kill us, and they are all in this situation, why should we care about their life and death?
I really hate those people in the village, my grandfather helped them a lot in the past, and some people's lives were saved by my grandfather. But now that grandpa is in trouble, not only do they not lend a hand, but they also follow the trend and become the main force to criticize grandpa.
But grandpa sighed, this is all fate, he doesn't blame anyone, and I, as a person in the yin and yang industry, naturally can't see death without saving, I should accumulate more yin virtue.
Grandpa explained it for a long time, and then I didn't know how to get home. The next morning, when I went to the cowshed to deliver food to his old man, the cowshed was empty, and my grandfather was long gone. I hurriedly went to ask the party secretary, and the village party secretary told me that my grandfather was a typical example of the county and was taken to the county jail.
Then I went to the county jail, but I didn't see him at all. At this point, I was separated from my grandfather, and I don't know if he was dead or alive. And I, again, was left alone and alone.
My grandfather was taken to the county jail, and I stayed in the county for more than ten days, and in the end, I had no choice but to go back to the village.
However, as soon as I returned to the village, it was just in time for the village to hold a meeting, and I thought that the village was going to start criticizing someone again.
As soon as I heard that the village was going to build a road again, I was shocked, you must know that there is a head sign that my grandfather does not want to provoke, if they really go to rebuild the road, then something will happen! It seems that grandpa's previous worries are not superfluous, and this village is really about to cause a big disaster.
At that moment, I rushed into the auditorium, grabbed the old branch secretary and said to him: "Branch secretary, are you going to build the road at the entrance of the village?" ”
The branch secretary saved me from the Red Guards before, so I still have a sense of gratitude to him.
When the old branch secretary saw me, he was stunned and didn't answer me, but asked me if I had seen my grandfather in the county seat. The old branch secretary cared about me, and I was naturally moved, so I shook my head helplessly and said that I hadn't seen anyone else. The old branch secretary also sighed after hearing this, quite sympathetic and sad.
At this time, I didn't have time to feel sad, and urgently asked him if the village was going to build a road?
The branch secretary nodded and said, "It's going to continue to build the road, isn't this the organization here to discuss this matter!" ”
As soon as I heard this, I immediately said urgently: "It can't be repaired, this road can't be repaired!" Otherwise, there will be a big disaster! ”
I was in a hurry, so my voice was louder, and for a moment everyone in the auditorium heard it, and all of them looked at me.
As soon as the words fell, a cold cry suddenly came from the podium: "Who the hell is here to make trouble!" The road outside the village is just as far as the entrance of the village, how can there be any reason to give up like this! ”
I looked at the podium, and a young man in his early twenties, this person I knew, was a Red Guard squad leader from Chenjiazhen, and a few days ago he criticized my grandfather as the most active among these turtle grandchildren.
At the moment, I didn't reason with him, because there was no reason to talk to him at all, so I turned to the old branch secretary and said: "Branch secretary, you don't know about the head marker at the entrance of the village, you are the village party secretary, you say something, that road really can't be repaired." Unless it's a detour! ”
How do you know that the old branch secretary sighed and said: "I can't help it, now I am no longer the branch secretary, he is the village party secretary appointed by the town a few days ago, and in the future, I can't be the master of the village's affairs, old man!" ”
When I heard this, I immediately screamed that it was broken, it seems that the matter of building roads cannot be stopped, how can you talk to a Red Guard about the evil yin and evil spirits?
Yes, the new cadre who has just been appointed from the town mentioned by the old branch secretary is the Red Guard squad leader on the podium!
His surname is Zeng, and he is also from Chenjia Town. He is somewhat famous in Chenjia Town, graduated from high school not long ago, and is considered a rare local intellectual.
When the turtle grandson saw me looking at him, he sneered very proudly, and then pointed at me and said, "It's you a little tumor of feudal superstition again, I saw that the old branch secretary spared you last time, don't you know how to repent?" ”
I ignored him, turned my head and shouted to the villagers in the auditorium, don't agree to build the road, everyone was in front of the last time the iron pillar fainted, if you still touch those stone statues, you will really find yourself dead!
When I said this, everyone was immediately scared, and the matter of the iron pillar must still be fresh in everyone's memory! Everyone began to talk quietly, but no one spoke out against the construction of the road.
At this time, the new branch secretary shouted at the villagers in the audience: "What age is it now, where are there so many cows, ghosts, snakes and gods, whoever mentions to me any ghosts and superstitions today, Lao Tzu will promise to let him tie up all kinds of flowers and go to the street tomorrow!" Feudal superstition is a big cancer in society and a public enemy of the broad masses of the people! ”
Being covered by this set of big hats, the entire auditorium instantly fell silent, who dares to say half a word, whoever says a word, is the enemy of the people, will be crusaded against by the broad masses of the people!
Seeing that no one shouted against it, the surnamed Zeng continued: "What bullshit, I've heard about what you're worried about. Isn't it just to dig out a few broken stones, tomorrow Lao Tzu will smash them into powder in front of you, in the face of socialism, all cows, ghosts, snakes and gods will become paper tigers, self-defeating! ”
After saying that, he turned his head and asked the villagers to tie me up, and the old branch secretary quarreled with him to save me.
I'm fine, but this road repair is a foregone conclusion, and the construction will start tomorrow, and the turtle grandson will lead everyone to smash those head markers!
