There is a white lantern hanging on both sides of the courtyard gate, with a gold cover and a yellow decoration hanging below, so you can tell that it was hung by an old man in the family after he passed away. But if you think about how old it is now, how can anyone still hang that kind of white lantern from the past? Besides, such a big lantern is in the way, it is impossible not to see it just now, it just appeared out of thin air, it is really strange.

Lao Wu looked at the white lantern and carefully recalled what happened in the courtyard just now, and suddenly heard Hu Dafang calling: "Hey, I said! You see, it's not locked. As he spoke, he pushed the door open a little and peeked in. This startled Lao Wu, and he hurriedly trotted over to pull Hu Da Arm out, but he caught it empty, and Hu Da Arm seemed to be attracted by something and went in.

Lao Wu chuckled in his heart, and was very frightened in his heart against the gloomy courtyard, it always seemed to attract people in, but why did he do this? Could it be that there are unjust ghosts waiting to catch a stand-in inside? As soon as he thought of this unjust ghost grabbing a stand-in, he began to worry about Hu Dabao, and forcefully pushed the two door panels open, just in time to see Hu Dabao standing in front of the grinding plate in the courtyard, with his back to them, and kept shrugging his shoulders and laughing.

Looking around the courtyard, there was only Hu Dafang alone, and the grandfather and grandson didn't know where to go, Lao Wu turned around and said to the brothers: "Come over and help." ”

Xiao Qi was the first to follow, he cautiously entered the courtyard, and poked his head towards the wall where he saw two faces. A few people entered the courtyard like thieves, Lao Wu stared at the dilapidated doors and windows of the house in front of him, it seemed that no one had lived here for a long time, but this grinding disc was very clean, although it was not that there was no trace of ash, but it felt like it was often used, in stark contrast to the dusty and lifeless yard.

Lao Wu swallowed a mouthful of saliva and wanted to reach out to pat Hu Dabao's shoulder, but he was afraid that Hu Dabao would have a grimace with a miserable smile when he turned around, so he could only stand a little farther away and shout at him: "Second brother, hey second brother!" What to do! Dinner? ”

Hu Dawei didn't look back, deliberately used his body to block their sight, and muttered: "What are you eating, I vomited to my stomach just now, how can I be in the mood to eat, you go first, I'll follow in a while." His voice was normal in tone, but I don't know what he was doing with his back. Xiao Qi stood on the side and accidentally saw something on the grinding plate, the color looked like money! Just say it.

As soon as the brothers heard that they were rich, they went over and pushed away Hu Dajiao, and sure enough, there was a bunch of brand-new tickets on the grinding plate, and Hu Dabian's crotch was also bulging. ”

It turned out that after Hu Dabo pushed the door open, he saw the pile of money on the mill plate at first sight, his greedy virtue of greedy for money, and his eyes turned green when he saw so much money, and he ran over with a grin. But after grabbing a large amount of money, he looked at himself, he had no clothes, no pants, no place to put it. But when I heard the sound of the door opening behind me, I had no choice but to stuff all the money into my pants, planning to eat alone, but I still let my brothers find out.

Only the fourth child stood behind and didn't move, he clearly remembered that when he came in for the first time, there was obviously a pile of beans about to be milled on the grinding plate, why did it turn into a pile of money so quickly? Turning his head to look at the furnishings in the yard, from the millstone to the house and then to the door, he suddenly found that the person who had just spoken to them was standing at the door, looking at the brothers who looked like they were robbing money with a frightened face.

The fourth child remembered that there was another person! I hurried out to explain, but as soon as I stepped out of the threshold, I suddenly felt a chill in my back, and when I turned my head, I was so frightened that I almost bit my tongue.

The brothers in the courtyard were pale, their eyes were about to bulge out, and they reached out with their big mouths and grabbed the yellow burning paper on the grinding plate and stuffed it into their mouths, it was simply a scene of hungry ghosts grabbing paper money, and there were two people in the window of the room, an old man and a young man, who were looking at them with a miserable smile, their mouths slightly open and closed as if they were talking.

The fourth brother was shocked, rushed in directly, dragged all the brothers out, and finally went to pull Hu Da's shoulder, he called out and said, "Hey, I said the fourth, what are you doing?" You see there's still money on the ground that hasn't been picked up! Don't drag me! Before being dragged out of the door by the fourth child, Hu Dawei still struggled to pick up the money on the ground.

These people have lived too hard, and when they see so much money, they are so numb that they can't think of other things, and they can't wait to die directly in that pile of money, and if they can't get it in the next life, they can still have a good family and live a life without worrying about food and clothing.

Lao Si grabbed the door frame with one hand, hugged Hu Dabao's neck with the other, and gritted his teeth at the people behind him who were dragged out by him just now: "What are you looking at!" Come and help! Get this pig out! ”

The third child touched his pocket full of money and said, "Fude, what do you care about Hu Dafang!" He likes to pick it up, anyway, I'm about the same. Hey old Wu! I'm going to give you some food today, huh? What the hell is paper money! The third child grabbed a few pieces of money from his pocket to give to Lao Wu, but after taking it out, the brothers were all dumbfounded, and the third child had a handful of dark yellow burning paper in his hand, how could there be any tickets.

The brothers who picked up the money just now were all stunned, and even Hu Dabang, who was still struggling to pick up the money, was stunned, and let the fourth child easily drag him out, still sitting against the wall on the side. Hu Dabo sat on the ground, and hurriedly took out all the money in his crotch, which was all burning paper, and it was the kind of old paper that would break when he touched it after a long time.

Old paper money has two meanings, the paper money circulating in the market before liberation and the Republic of China is a collectible antique today, so it is also called old paper money. There is also a kind of burning paper, that is, burning paper money for the dead, some places are very taboo old paper money, because paper money is the money used in the underworld, pinched in the hands of ghosts, the old paper money for a long time is the same as the money used for use, has been touched by many ghosts, holding this kind of paper money with extremely heavy yin qi, it is very easy to hit ghosts.

The grave team is digging graves, in ancient times it was a serious crime to dig up other people's ancestral graves, and digging up the dead and whipping the corpse was even more hateful than killing, so there were many taboos for the grave movers. The grave team can also come across old paper money, some of the graves have stones pressed on their heads, and under the stones is a knife burning paper, which means that someone has come to add soil to the grave, and they have to press the paper money to tell others. If someone accidentally touches the old paper money when moving the grave, they have to kowtow three times on the spot, and they have to kowtow on their backs, and the butt is towards the deceased. It stands to reason that such a knock method is a big disrespect, but those who have been handed down from the past have done this, and I don't know what kind of attention it is.

Hu Da Bread stared at the old burning paper in his hand, and turned into slag when he held it hard, he slowly raised his head to look at his brothers, and asked in a hoarse voice: "This, near here, is there a grave?" ”

As soon as he finished saying this, the brothers took out all the paper money in their pockets and threw it on the ground like a fryer, begging grandpa to tell grandma that there was no movement, Lao Wu scolded: "Damn, be quiet!" A few pieces of torn paper scare you for this virtue? ”

The third child cried and said with a sad face: "You didn't take it again, of course you can fucking say such cool things!" How, what should I do, do I still want this hand? The sixth man simply kowtowed to the small courtyard on his back, and muttered in his mouth: "Uncle ghosts, I didn't mean it, don't come to me!" ”

"What are you doing? That's not some old burnt paper, it's what I put on the grinding plate yesterday, maybe it was damp at night and it's a little hard after drying today, so it looks like old paper money. The voices of the brothers all stopped, and they all looked for the sound.
