Chapter 22: A Strange Death

It happened that on the morning of the seventh day, everything was normal, and my grandmother made breakfast as usual and woke us up. I washed my face with sleepy eyes open and prepared for breakfast.

However, when I walked up to the pool, I couldn't help but be stunned.

I saw my grandmother with a white cloth in her hand, and she was rubbing it vigorously over the pool.

Seeing that kind of white cloth, I couldn't help but gasp, and I asked, "Grandma, where did you get this white cloth?" ”

"When I opened the door in the morning, I saw this piece of white cloth on the doorknob of our house, so I took it back, what a good cotton cloth, I can use it to make shoe samples when I go back, and I don't know who kindly sent such a piece ......of cloth, but it's strange," said grandma, while still washing the white cloth, which was almost exactly the same as the previous few times.

I suddenly thought of the piece of cloth that I had dropped on the ground that day in the bamboo forest, but who would run so far away in boredom and pick up that piece of cloth and put it on the door of my house.

Unless there is a possibility, the person who did this knew about the white cloth, so he put it at my door in an attempt to frame him.

The first thing I thought of was Li Aiguo, my father beat him up that day, maybe he wanted to take revenge. Grandpa also said that Li Aiguo is not a simple person, and he may know about the white cloth.

"Grandma, did you notice any blood on the white cloth when you first got it?" I asked tentatively.

"Blood...... No, just a white cloth, I saw that there was dust on it, so I washed it. Grandma said, when he spoke, there was a little hesitation, and I looked carefully at the white cloth in her hand, which was too similar to the white cloth I had seen that day.

However, grandma said that there was no blood on the white cloth, maybe it was just a likeness, was it just a coincidence?

But I still didn't feel at ease, so I asked my dad about it.

Dad looked at the white cloth on my grandmother's hand from a distance, his face changed instantly, and he nodded slightly. This means that Daddy thinks that the white cloth is the white cloth we saw before, and I remember Daddy seemed to say that it was called the Shroud.

"Dad, what now?" I asked in a low voice.

Daddy didn't answer, but walked over to grandma, and when he got to grandma, dad said, "Mom, the origin of this white cloth is unknown, let's throw it away!" ”

Grandma looked back at my father, and he asked, "What's wrong with you and Fanwazi, didn't you just pick up a piece of white cloth, as if I had done something bad?" ”

"No, Mom, you misunderstood, it's just ......," Daddy said halfway.

"It's just what, how good is this white cloth, what are you doing when you throw it away? Mingyi, this kind of good fabric may not be bought in the township, you told me to throw it away, is my head muddy? Grandma pointed at my dad and scolded.

My father's face was full of helplessness, and there were some things that he couldn't explain to my grandmother.

But Daddy was also very cute, and he was standing behind my grandma, so watching. When my grandmother was not looking, she snatched the white cloth from my grandmother's hand at once.

Grandma is a little foot, where to catch up with my father, she is chasing and scolding behind, which looks a little funny.

Although the white cloth was wet, Daddy took out a match and immediately burned it. There was still black smoke when it was burning, and I stood at the gate and asked from a distance about a very unpleasant smell, which was indescribable.

After burning it, my father's expression couldn't be relaxed.

I've also heard my dad say that this kind of white cloth is hard to throw away as long as it is stained, and he never told me what it is. Even when grandpa talked about white cloth before, he only replaced it with that thing, as if he was also taboo about this thing.

Sure enough, this white cloth is not something that has been burned.

The next morning, the white cloth appeared on the clothes line in my yard.

Grandma was also stunned when she saw that piece of cloth, because she saw my father burn that piece of white cloth with her own eyes yesterday, but now it appeared in my house again, which is beyond the scope of ordinary people's cognition.

It's weird.

No one knows where this white cloth came from, even my grandfather was very taboo about this thing, but now this thing is in my house. Daddy ran over, ripped off the white cloth, and burned it directly.

At this time, the grandfather came out of the house, and he said, "It's late, it's useless to burn that thing now." ”

"So what now?" Daddy asked, in fact, Daddy himself knew that it was useless to burn it.

"Since you have taken the white cloth, you can only wait and see what the other party is going to do!" Grandpa said that grandma knew that she had done something wrong, so she explained her experience of picking up the white cloth to grandpa, and grandpa sighed and said: "It seems that someone did this thing deliberately, this is to yin our family!" ”

Almost instantly, I thought of Li Aiguo, because in Yangjiazhuang, no one else wants to calculate my family except Li Aiguo.

"I'm going to tie him up!" Dad said that after the last incident, Dad hated that Li Aiguo to the core, it was he who made Grandpa become full of gray hair, but Daddy's impulsiveness could only make things worse.

"What's the panic, what evidence do you have?" Grandpa asked.

There is really no evidence for this, and if there is no evidence, my father will tie people up, and this thing is unreasonable, maybe whoever reports it, and my father will have to suffer a lawsuit. The villagers were frightened by the last incident, no one dared to report it, and Li Aiguo didn't sue my father, he really wanted to sue him, so many villagers can testify, my father will inevitably be imprisoned, but Li Aiguo didn't do it.

I know that there must be a secret in this, maybe Li Aiguo is secretly planning something.

Dad was silent, and Grandpa said at this time: "Wait and see, see what he wants to do, Li Aiguo is a very serious person, and he must not startle the snake before he understands the situation!" ”

Grandpa's words show that he also thinks that Li Aiguo did this, and there is no second person in Yangjiazhuang.

As my grandfather said, the burned white cloth reappeared on the clothesline in my yard the next morning.

And, that very same night, my grandmother fell ill, without warning.

Grandma coughed so badly that she even coughed up blood in the middle of the night, you know, my grandfather is an old Chinese medicine doctor, and he used various herbs to make medicinal soup for grandma to drink, but it didn't have any effect.

And when everyone was helpless, Grandpa told us all to go out.

Grandpa and grandma were alone in the same room.

The door was closed, and the family stayed at the door all night.

It wasn't until the next morning that Grandpa walked out of the room sweating profusely, and he looked at us and said, "Xiulian, she's okay!" ”

And I always watched my grandfather, who had aged a lot in one night. is different from the last night of whitehead, and this time grandpa is really showing his old state, and his mental head does not look as good as before.

In order to save grandma, what grandpa did, I'm afraid only grandpa himself knows, his temper, he won't tell anyone.

Grandpa came out of Grandma's house and went to another room to rest without any rest, and he also closed the door tightly and told him not to disturb him for an hour.

Time passed little by little, and the little light seemed to be stuck, about after Grandpa went back to the house to rest, and after an hour, he came.

Zhang Xiaoguang was the child who was haunted by the female ghost on the other side of the bamboo forest before, and he was a few years older than me. This time, I ran to my yard in a panic and asked directly: "Is Grandpa Yang at home, something happened, something happened again!" ”

Dad went over and asked, "Xiaoguang, what's wrong, what's wrong?" ”

Zhang Xiaoguang couldn't speak at all, he muttered for a long time and didn't say anything, but he cried and sat on the ground, looking pitiful.

At this time, the door of Grandpa's house creaked, he walked out, Grandpa's face looked much better, he walked over and asked, "Xiaoguang, what's wrong?" ”

"Dead, all the people who cut down the trees that day are dead, and my father is dead too!" Zhang Xiaoguang choked up and reluctantly spoke, among those who cut down trees, Zhang Genmiao was his father.

This incident was obviously out of grandpa's expectations, and grandpa's expression was also a little surprised, because, as he said before, he had already dealt with the immortal family on the old locust tree, how could he still die now?

When encountering this kind of thing, no one else can solve it, only my grandfather is Yangjiazhuang's reliance.

He took out his satchel from the house and followed Zhang Xiaoguang out, and my father was worried that something would happen to my grandfather, so he took me with them and went.

The scene of the incident is still on the side of the old locust tree, as I said before, there is a clear spring under the old locust tree, and the dealer of Yangjiazhuang can be protected for a year in the year of the great drought.

The village temple was smashed and the locust tree was cut down, but the spring was still there, and the big pit formed by the spring was still there.

When Zhang Xiaoguang ran over with us, he saw something in the puddle from a distance, and several villagers around him should be the families of the deceased, and others did not dare to come to join in the fun.

When I got closer, I saw several pairs of feet floating on the water.

And the corpses were deep into the springs, as if they had dived into the water and their heads were stuck underneath.

Seeing my grandfather coming, one of the family members of the deceased should be Zhang Xiaoguang's mother, who knelt in front of my grandfather and said, "Yang Shenxian, you are a god, can you save the child and his father?" ”

"Don't be nervous, find someone to get a few of them out first!" Grandpa said, and the other family members of the deceased also came over to kneel on my grandfather.

In the end, my grandfather said a thousand things, saying that he would fish them up first, and if there was a way, he would definitely save them.

Those people are considered to have gotten up, in fact, everyone knows that after soaking in the water for so long, people must have died a long time ago, how can they be saved.

However, they are all willing to believe in my grandfather, in fact, it is also a kind of sustenance, a kind of dependence, even if their relatives die in front of them, they still refuse to believe it.

I found a few strong people, my father also went into battle, and several women also participated, put ropes around the feet and necks of those people, and began to pull the corpses out.

But when he pulled it, the corpse was so heavy that he couldn't pull it at all.

It is estimated that it was stuck underwater by something, and there was no movement at all.

They changed a corpse and put it back together, and there were a dozen people, including women, of course, and sweat oozed from their heads, but the corpse still didn't move.

All three bodies were the same, completely unmoved.

Grandpa asked everyone to stop, he walked to the water's edge, turned back and forth three times, and then took out a handful of water and looked at it carefully. Then he said to my father, "Mingyi, you go home and bring the yellow package in the innermost part of my house!" ”
