Seeing his grandfather like this, Luo Buzhai snatched the piece of paper from his father's hand again, looked at it from the front and back, and looked at it backwards from it, trying to see the clue from it. Although Luo Buzhai knows Chinese, he has a limited understanding of ancient poetry, so he didn't see any signs after reading it for a long time.

Grandpa knows that the next sentence of this sentence is "Xinyue Jun Xijun doesn't know". He also immediately understood Jiuyi's words. The meaning of the ninety-one chief is to ask Xie Xiaomi to remember his father's face and his father's address, which are all external memories and have no effect, the key is whether Xie Xiaomi's heart is here with his father. As long as the mind is here, appearance, distance, voice, age, etc. cannot form an obstacle.

A few days later, the Xie family, who had lost the bridge, sent someone to ask his grandfather to go to the lost bridge.

Grandpa was surprised, because Xie Xiaomi had come by himself before, and he had never sent anyone else to Thrush Village.

Grandpa asked the visitor, "Who called you here?" ”

The visitor said, "Of course it's someone from the Xie family!" ”

Grandpa asked, "Is it the Xie family's parents or Miss Xie?" ”

"Of course it's the Xie family." The comer said.

Grandpa was shocked, and hurriedly asked Luo Buzhai to rush to the Lost Bridge together.

When he arrived at Xie's house, the old man of the Xie family hurriedly pulled his grandfather into Xie Xiaomi's house. Grandpa thought to himself, he was afraid of me going in before, but now he is pulling me in, it's really this time and that time. However, seeing the anxious appearance of the old man of the Xie family, Grandpa felt that something was wrong.

Entering Xie Xiaomi's boudoir, a foul smell hit, choking Grandpa and Luo Buzhai sneezed a few times.

Grandpa was surprised in his heart, this stench was released before the human body died. When people are alive, they eat whole grains, vegetables and meat, and in addition to the nutrients that people need, there are also various toxins that enter the human body. When a person is alive, these external aurishments that enter the body are suppressed and cannot be released. But at the moment when the human body really dies, these auras can no longer be closed, and leaks out of the seven orifices and pores, emitting an unpleasant smell. After this burst of anger is released, the human body really begins to rot and stink.

Sure enough, Grandpa saw Xie Xiaomi's body on her bed.

The old man of the Xie family pointed at Xie Xiaomi painfully, and said with tears in his eyes: "She came back from your house yesterday, and she is no longer good." I wanted her to see you again, but she wouldn't let her, saying that as long as the Alayya consciousness is still there, there will be a chance to meet in the future, and she doesn't care if they meet in this life or the next life. I didn't dare to fight her, so I didn't send anyone to call you. This morning, when I saw that she was not drinking a drop of water and her breath was dying, I took it upon myself to call someone to call you. I saw that she was fine a few days ago, I thought that I wouldn't be so quick to breathe, I thought that you could see her for the last time, but I didn't expect it to be late......" As he spoke, the old man of the Xie family leaned against the bed and cried silently.

Grandpa said slowly: "So you know that she came back from my house. ”

The old man of the Xie family tried his best to suppress his grief and said, "Why don't I know? I just don't want her to know. ”

Grandpa suddenly remembered what Xie Xiaomi said before. Xie Xiaomi's parents turned a blind eye to her deliberate exposure of her parasitic identity. The Xie family's parents may have clearly known that Xie Xiaomi's was wrong, they can even pretend not to know about such an important matter, let alone these little things?

Thinking of these, my father was moved by the dedication of the Xie family's parents.

Grandpa remembered that Xie Xiaomi said some time ago that he could no longer control the corpse qi in his body, and hurriedly asked Luo Buzhai to help the overly sad Xie family master to go out to rest. At this time, the old lady of the Xie family was so grief-stricken that she couldn't get up in bed. Fortunately, there are still a few people in the courtyard who can do things.

Grandpa hurriedly called his subordinates to prepare for the funeral.

Originally, after death, the deceased had to be scrubbed by someone close to him before he could be buried. But at this time, Xie Xiaomi's corpse was already full of corpse, and if he was not careful, he might hurt others. Daddy had no choice but to decide to omit this procedure.

When he was in Dayun Mountain, the head of Jiuyi once said that every time he smelled burning sandalwood when he was a child, he would remember some fragments of his past life, so it is estimated that touching sandalwood has the function of helping to remember his past life.

So, my father asked the Xie family if there was sandalwood at home.

But the next man said no.

Grandpa was helpless, so he took out the shell sachet he carried with him and put it next to Xie Xiaomi's pillow, hoping that this shell sachet could replace the role of sandalwood. In addition, when I met Xie Xiaomi for the first time, my father found that this shell sachet could offset the corpse qi, and when it was placed here at this time, it could also play a protective role in the living.

Soon, a strange aroma filled the room......

Grandpa leaned into Xie Xiaomi's ear and read softly: "You were originally a helpless parasitic grass, born at noon on the seventh day of the lunar month of Gengwu year, and by chance heard four poems in the name of parasitic grass, and was able to enlighten your soul and embark on the path of cultivation...... "Grandpa told Xie Xiaomi's life, hoping that with the help of the fragrance of the shell sachet, her soul can be remembered. Although the ninety-first chief said that "Arhats have the faintness of dwelling in the womb, and Bodhisattvas have the mystery of separating yin", Arhats and Bodhisattvas still can't avoid it, but Grandpa still has to give it a try.

Luo Buzhai listened very earnestly.

After Grandpa finished telling what he knew, Luo Buzhai reminded him: "You should tell more about the things between you and her." In the next life, if she still remembers your words and continues to practice, but she can't remember you from these words, won't it be in vain? ”

Grandpa didn't say more.

Luo Buzhai didn't understand why his father didn't say it.

But grandpa understood.

My grandfather said that the poem Xie Xiaomi's death left the day before his death was called "Yue Ren Song", which was the earliest translated poem in China. The whole article is "Tonight, the middle of the boat." Today, I have to be in the same boat with the prince. Shame is good, not shameful. The heart was annoyed and unstoppable, and learned that the prince. The mountains have trees and branches, and you don't know if you are happy? ”

It is said that when the Ejun of Chu was boating in the river, the Yue girl who played the oars admired him and sang this song in Yue, and the Ejun asked someone to translate it in Chu. What Yue Nu said means: What kind of day is today! I floated on the Yangtze River in a small boat. What a day it is! I can be in the same boat as you! Thank you for seeing! Don't dislike me or even scold me because I'm a boater. My heart is so nervous that I can't stop because I actually saw you! Everyone knows that there are trees on the mountains, and there are branches in the trees, but I like you so much, but you don't know!

Xie Xiaomi and Yue Nu have the same thoughts, but they also have the same innate inferiority. Yue Nu has low self-esteem because she is just a subordinate who plays an oar, and she thinks that she is not worthy of a gentleman. Xie Xiaomi, on the other hand, felt that he was a parasitic grass, and he was parasitic on a corpse full of corpse energy, and he was not worthy of his famous grandfather. Therefore, Xie Xiaomi's heart is as entangled as a Yue girl.

Grandpa understood what kind of mood Xie Xiaoxiao left that headless and tailless poem. He didn't have a chance to untie the knot in her heart, and he didn't want her to feel humble, so he didn't say those words in her ear.

"I hope you forget me and find a better home." Finally, Daddy added.

The Xie family's parents both fell ill due to grief, and there were no children at home to entrust, so Xie Xiaomi's funeral was handed over to his grandfather.

Grandpa did not buy a coffin for Xie Xiaomi, but got a pair of water tanks, put Xie Xiaomi in the water tank, and then sealed the mouth of the butt water tank with cement. He knew that the aroma of the shell sachet could not cancel out all of Xie Xiaomi's corpse qi, and no matter what kind of wooden coffin it was, it could not guarantee complete sealing, and if the coffin was parked in the house for seven days, it would definitely infect many people. But if he placed the two butt water tanks in the mourning hall, this would not be able to be explained.

So, my father invited Li Xiaocheng of Li Jiaao to imitate Xie Xiaomi's appearance and make a scarecrow comparable to a real person, and then put the scarecrow into the willow coffin in front of everyone.

Li Xiaocheng has always been grateful to his father, so naturally he will not leak the truth.

After seven days of blowing, Daddy sent Xie Xiaomi up the mountain.

Because the Xie family is rich, every bit of the family can become a topic of conversation for ordinary people after dinner. Most of the people who lost the bridge knew that Grandpa and Miss Xie had a marriage contract, and then canceled it, this time they saw Grandpa personally handle the funeral, and praised Grandpa for being affectionate and righteous, even if he was broken by the woman, he did not hold grudges, and in the end he meticulously fulfilled his responsibilities as a husband to Miss Xie and fulfilled his responsibilities as an aunt to the Xie family.

At the same time, the people who lost the bridge felt that Miss Xie was so charming that she could let a man do it to this extent.

Rumors and imagination, the story of Grandpa and Miss Xie has become more and more popular, almost comparable to the Cowherd and Weaver Girl.

Since then, the old man of the Xie family has indeed regarded his grandfather as his own aunt and not an outsider. Many years later, the Japanese hit here and took my grandfather away as a gold digger, and it was the nearly 100-year-old Xie family master who rescued my grandfather with his own power and spent a lot of silver dollars.

It's a pity that the old man of the Xie family died later, and his father was still monitored by the Japanese and did not let him out of Thrush Village, so his father was unable to attend the funeral of the old man of the Xie family.

Whether Xie Xiaomi was successfully reincarnated, Grandpa had no way to know, and there was no trace to be found. The only thing you can do is wait. waited for twenty-four years, and the two zodiac signs were reincarnated.

In the past 24 years, my grandfather often went to see the ninety-one chief, and often read the Buddhist scriptures and Taoist scriptures on reincarnation.

Although the head of Jiuyi is a Taoist priest, he has never been afraid to discuss Buddhist scriptures and Buddhist principles with his grandfather. In the view of the ninety-one chief, China's Buddhism and Taoism are originally one, and although there are differences, they are more the same.

Once, my grandfather asked Jiuyi Chief: "Since you know so much Buddhism, why don't you become a monk but a Taoist?" ”

Jiuyi smiled and said, "I really wanted to be a monk, and I went to several monk temples to ask for take-in, but they were all refused. ”

"Why refuse?"

"They say that I have six roots that are not finished, and the dust is still deep."

"Didn't you leave your parents later?"

"They think that although I have left home, I still care about my relatives in my previous life, so I have no fate." Ninety-one said the chief. He stood on the highest point of Dayun Mountain, looking down on the people working under the mountain like ants.

Grandpa thought that he understood the meaning of "no more dust", but the next nine long words made him at a loss.

"In fact, in this life, I am also looking for the shadow of that person, I have been looking for more than forty lifetimes, but I am like a flower in the mirror, the moon in the water." Jiuyi's long eyes were sad.
