Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Legend of the Dead Infant (I)
Guo Jin shook his head: "I don't know about those coffins, the cliff crevice over there was the first place to put hanging coffins, although some coffins were added later, but most of them were noble people, my father wouldn't let me know too much, and I was young at that time..."
Li Yan couldn't help frowning when he heard this, he didn't expect that the people on both sides had deteriorated to such an extent, and the funerals in this village didn't care much about it.
It seems that the folk customs of this place, although his home is also a mountain village, is obviously not a style.
Let's not talk about this folklore, if this is the case, those coffins are afraid that there is no way to understand, it seems that only by going to the cave and asking other people can they know.
"But..."Just when Li Yan made up his mind, Guo Jin's words suddenly changed, "I know the dead baby you said, he is a special person." ”
"A special?" Hearing that Guo Jin actually used the word "special" to describe it, Li Yan suddenly became interested, he simply pulled Guo Jin up, sat back on the rock mass, and started chatting.
Listening to Guo Jin, it is indeed as Li Yan expected before, that coffin is something that only rich people can use.
It's just that the rich man in Guo's account is indeed a little special. He was rich, but he didn't know it.
His wealth only fulfilled the unprecedented luxury of the funeral.
The hero of the matter is the rich man, and the rich man is a child.
At that time, there was a couple in the village, and the male owner went out to wander back and made a full plate of silver, which can be said to be the glory of the ancestors, and the ancestral graves were full of smoke.
But as soon as a person has money, his temperament changes.
After the man came back, he saw that his wretched wife was disgusted from the bottom of his heart, from the cynicism at the beginning to the closed door in the back, the man perfectly interpreted the sentence "A man becomes bad when he is rich".
After driving his wife to the firewood room at home, the man began to take the woman home unscrupulously, and sometimes there were even several in the area, singing every night, and the unbearable sound could sometimes be heard in the village.
Usually in this case, the woman would have run away from home or hanged herself in a humiliated manner, but the hostess did not do so.
Because only she knows, she has.
A few days before the man went out, she had it, but in order not to be a burden to the man, she silently concealed all this.
Until the man returned from a few months of wandering, she wanted to hold up her belly that was already slightly bulging to tell him the good news, but the man just looked at her in disgust, and didn't even wait for her to say that she was tired and wanted to rest.
This delay is that there is no chance to speak again.
The hostess is still living alone in the demolition of the house, and the man is still endlessly indulging.
This lasted for months, and the man and the woman lived under the same roof like strangers, but they had no contact with each other.
Until one day, the time finally came.
The hostess is about to give birth.
She can endure it, she can compromise, but she can't give birth to a child by herself.
She hadn't eaten haode for a long time, and she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to survive this level.
But she had to give birth to the child, and she couldn't afford to give up all her efforts, so after a few months, she finally walked to the man's room.
The family didn't stop her, after all, she used to be the mistress of this house, even if it was just once, but it was enough.
When the hostess came to the man's room, the man was dying in bed with two women.
There was something special about those two women, one in his forties and the other in his twenties.
She later learned that it was a mother and daughter.
It's just a beast!
But the hostess didn't care about this at all, she cared about whether the child in her womb could come smoothly.
So she endured it, she was afraid that the man would be angry, so she just stood outside the door and waited.
After waiting for more than half an hour, Zuihou finally heard the voice of the male host.
She followed and walked into the room, stating her purpose.
She didn't want much, just like the man to help her find a midwife, and then give birth to the child.
This is indeed not an excessive, or even a matter of course.
But the man burst out laughing maniacally, as if he had finally caught a whip and had finally found an excuse to kick her out of the house.
"You're lying, who are you talking to?! You must have gotten involved with some guy behind my back when I went out, tell me, who is that guy?! ”
This was the first time that the man had said so many words to the hostess since he came back, but every sentence was like a fierce piercing of the hostess's heart, and it didn't take long for her whole heart to be pierced and bruised.
"No, no, the child is yours, I was already pregnant when you went out, I was afraid that it would affect you, so I kept hiding it and didn't tell you, it's yours, it's yours..."
The hostess explained desperately, dragging her bulging belly and crying to sit on the ground and beg the man.
The poignant pleading, even the family couldn't help but look sideways.
But the man didn't pay attention to it at all, he finally got an excuse how could he give up so easily.
He instigated the housekeepers to drag the hostess out of the room.
Then close the door and continue his mother-daughter double flight.
The hostess was already crying hoarsely, and when she reached Zuihou, she couldn't make a sound, just crawled at the door.
That night, heavy rain poured in.
But no one cares about the hostess, and those family members avoid it.
At dawn the next day, the hostess was still lying outside the door, and no one bothered to ask a word.
And so on until the third day.
On the morning of the third day, a strange smell suddenly filled the entire courtyard.
It smelled very special, a little stinky and a little fishy.
As soon as the man went out, he smelled the smell, and hurriedly called the house to look around, and Zuihou finally locked the source of the smell on the hostess in the courtyard.
They walked over and turned the hostess who was lying on her stomach, only to find that the hostess had long been out of breath, and the smell was that his body was rotten.
The housekeepers didn't dare to mess around, but hurriedly called the man in the house up.
Hearing that the hostess was dead, the man was also a little flustered, but not because of the hostess's death, but because of the death of someone in his courtyard.
He walked up to the hostess with his nose covered, and after a few glances, he was disgusted.
The death of the hostess did not awaken his conscience, nor did it remind him of the good old days, but made him feel an inexplicable nausea.
He soon found a family member to prepare for the burial of the hostess.
But that's the moment.
"Wow~"
A baby's cry suddenly sounded from inside the hostess's body.
