Chapter 165: Tai Sui's head breaks ground
After Piliu Village, I was very sensitive to all short people, and I felt that every short person was like a witness!
The casual sentence of the ball head shocked my heart, Tang Yao is not tall, and it seems that her family lives in Huyin Mountain or Tang Wazi!
I was a little nervous, and when the pill saw me staring at Tang Yao, he patted me and scolded:
"Hey, hey, it's almost okay, don't stare at it, you have white sails!"
I relieved myself and sneered, feeling a little interested in this Tang Yao.
Tang Yao's meeting with me is very storytelling, the third watch jumped into the reservoir in the middle of the night to commit suicide, and was saved by Xiaoliu and me.
During that time, I was entangled in the crisis of trust and didn't have time to think about her, now it seems that this Tang Yao is really not ordinary, but ten years ago she was only a teenager, and the witness should not be her!
It wasn't long before we were back in our respective homes.
I stayed up all night last night, and when I returned to the dormitory, I slept until three or four o'clock in the afternoon.
In order to avoid too many people during the day, after waking up, I simply cleaned up and set off for Huyin Mountain!
Huyin Mountain Village is really a secret gathering place, I learned about the comrade-in-arms relationship of Lao Wu, Lao Tang, and Liu Yunbo here, and unearthed two coins and a book here, and it was also here that I got the news of the existence of the fourth driver!
I chose to come to Tiger Waist Mountain for a long time, most of the people killed in the car of Lao Tang were villagers of Tiger Waist Mountain, according to normal logical analysis, if this witness is a family member of the victim, then he will definitely not watch the driver who caused the accident, Lao Tang, escape, and watch the city leaders suppress this whole thing and resist silently!
So I have to check which house in the village made the most noise after the car accident that year, and see if I can find some clues from the witnesses!
I have been to Huyishan Village many times, and when I entered the village, I went straight to the village chief's house, and the village chief was killed by me, and after a few months, I still feel very guilty.
Huyin Mountain is not as sensitive as Piliu Village, and it is not guaranteed that there are still city leaders in the village, so I must try to keep a low profile in this investigation.
After dealing with the village chief's house for a night, I pretended to be okay and went to the village store to buy breakfast to eat, I breathed in the fresh air of the village and was in a good mood.
When I was thinking about whether to visit the new village chief, I suddenly heard someone behind me shouting to me:
"Young man! Why are you here again? ”
I looked back and saw that it was an old man with a rickety back, and a little girl of seven or eight years old next to him.
I have met the two of them a few times and am very impressed, it is the grandfather and grandson who died and I left a hundred yuan for the little girl to buy a schoolbag.
I burped, smiled and stepped forward to touch the little girl's head, said hello to the old man, and said:
"Uncle, it's been good lately!"
Uncle didn't be polite to me, and asked in a low voice:
"I'm fine, why are you here again?"
Ever since he got acquainted with this old man, the most he has said to me has been to persuade me to leave quickly, and to ask me why I am here again.
I remember the last time I lived with Lao Liu at the village chief's house and happened to meet the old man passing by, or he told me that there was a fourth driver of the 13th Road, and told me that I could go to the west of the village to find him, but unfortunately there was a delay at the time, and I didn't pour out the time, now I think about it, this old man can be regarded as helping me a lot!
"The company is on holiday, come to pay tribute to the old village chief!"
When the uncle heard this, he approached me and whispered:
"I see you've been back and forth two or three times, it's not that simple, it's not convenient to talk outside, come to my house for a meal at night! At the west end of the village, there is a big willow tree in the yard! ”
Seeing that the uncle was so enthusiastic, I naturally happily agreed, and after a few more greetings, the uncle led the little girl home.
Just now I was still looking at the idea of having no friends to prepare for the new village chief, but I didn't expect to get a harvest from the kung fu of sneaking around, and I have always been grateful for my generosity, and from his persuasion of me for so long, the old man knows a lot of things!
I had to seize this opportunity, and after thinking about it, I went to the commissary to buy four kinds of fruits, and waited until it was dark to rush to the old man's house for dinner.
There is a big willow tree in the courtyard at the west end of the village, the uncle's home is easy to find, seeing that I am carrying something, the uncle smiled from ear to ear, and hurriedly welcomed me in with his family.
In addition to the uncle and the little girl, there was also a middle-aged couple, who were the uncle's son and daughter-in-law.
After eating with this warm family, I suddenly felt a little homesick.
The uncle and the little girl lived alone in the same room, and after dinner he called me over to chat, and for me, the real meal had just begun!
I followed up the house and closed the door, and the uncle sat on the kang and lit a cigarette, looked at me for a long time, and then said slowly:
"Young man, the uncle has told you several times that this village can't stay with you, why don't you listen?"
I smiled and replied:
"Uncle, I've been coming and going in a hurry these few times, and I haven't had time to ask you a lot of questions, how do you know that I'm the driver of the No. 13 bus?"
The old man smiled and said:
"After you came and left for the first time, the village chief told me!"
It turned out that the village chief said it, and remembering the tragic situation of the village chief, I suddenly felt a little embarrassed, whether to continue to ask about the car accident, after all, this is risky!
Uncle looked at me and said with a smile:
"You don't drive well, you run to Tiger Waist Mountain one by one, what do you want to know?"
I sighed and smiled embarrassedly:
"Uncle, I want to know a lot, and I don't know whether to ask!"
The uncle showed a melancholy look on his face, and said slowly:
"You must have been here for the case of a water car accident ten years ago, right?"
I thought about it cautiously for a long time, but I decided to trust him, nodded and said:
"Yes, uncle, this matter is very important, you must not tell others!"
The uncle waved his hand.
"Ahem, half of my body is in the ground, I know how heavy it is!"
"However, I really don't approve of you investigating this matter, ten years have passed, and the families of the victims don't want anything to say, what are you doing here?"
I curled up my legs and said earnestly:
"To be honest, I came this time to check on these families who were killed, you are an old resident, did you make any special trouble at that time!"
Hearing this, the uncle sighed and said meaningfully:
"Yes, the news newspapers didn't dare to report that someone died in the family, and at first there were several families who wanted to file a joint complaint!"
"And then?"
"The most ferocious is the old Zhou family, the man in his family is lost in that car accident, the orphan and widow, life is very sad, but then I went to the city, and when I came back, I stopped making trouble!"
I asked, confused:
"Why don't you make a fuss?"
The uncle shook his head and said:
"The specifics are not clear, everyone is clear in their hearts about this matter, but they are afraid that the impact will not be good, and they will be forced down by the top! Even the compensation is negotiated in private! ”
This is very strange, why did the daughter-in-law of the old Zhou family sue half of the lawsuit, was she threatened in the city?
Seeing me in a daze, the uncle said with a smile:
"You don't drive well, you have to come to this troubled water, the old Zhou family's daughter-in-law has changed when she comes back from the city, this is a sad thing, don't ask her casually, her family is looking for someone to build a new house in the past two days, if you are in a panic, you can help!"
Isn't this a good opportunity to get close to her, I hastenedly responded:
"Okay, I happen to have nothing to do, I'll help her build a house tomorrow! The bricklayer can't work, but it's no problem to move bricks! ”
After chatting with the old man for a while, I went home!
The next day I got up early in the morning and hurried to pay my respects!
I don't have an impression of the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family, but she looked at me familiar with the funeral of the village chief, and heard me say that it was a distant relative who swept the grave of the village chief, and she came to his house to help build a house when she had nothing to do, so she was naturally very happy.
In order to save money, the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family only hired two people, plus her fifteen or sixteen-year-old son, and the work of mixing cement and doing small jobs was all done by the five of us!
Today is the day of laying the foundation for the house, a few of us have a shovel around a piece of encircled land, began to dig down, fortunately this piece of land to build a new house is thick and there are no stones, digging is not very difficult, Zhou's daughter-in-law and we have been digging from eight o'clock in the morning to more than ten o'clock at noon, before Zhang Luo went to cook.
Seeing that the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family left, these two people who spent money to help were obviously not working properly, chatting and swaying with shovels perfunctory, they were all paid by the day, I knew that this was mixed work!
I have the heart to scold these people, but as an outsider, I can't say anything.
It is not easy for them to take money and not work, thinking that it is not easy for the daughter-in-law and widow of the Zhou family to have a teenage child, although I can not stay here for many days, but it is a little to help her do more.
Thinking about it, I didn't care about other people's hard work and dug up, and I was sweating profusely when I suddenly heard her son screaming in panic.
I was startled, thinking he had touched his foot, and hurried over to see what was going on, but when I saw that the boy was all right, he just threw his shovel and stared at something in the ground, shivering!
I leaned over and saw that in the pit the boy had dug lay a lump of orange stuff that I didn't recognize what it was, but it looked disgusting!
The two bricklayers who were lazy on the side also ran over when they heard the shouting, and when they saw this thing, they couldn't help frowning in a panic, and said with a sigh:
"It's bad, this house can't be built!"
I looked at the bricklayer and asked:
"Why can't you cover it yet? What kind of thing is this, just throw him away with a shovel! ”
When the bricklayer heard this, he quickly waved his hand and said:
"Oh, my mother, don't talk nonsense, this is Tai Sui, isn't it crooked that Tai Sui's head is broken?"
In the research room, the widow of the Zhou family also ran from the house when she heard the child's shout, and when she saw the scene in the pit, her face turned gloomy.
The bricklayer muttered for a while and said:
"It's not a good sign to dig up Tai Sui, hurry up and find the older people in your village to see how this matter has to be handled, or your children will be unlucky!"
The daughter-in-law of the Zhou family nodded again and again when she heard this, and hurriedly trotted all the way to call someone.
A few of us waited around the big pit for about 20 minutes, and the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family led an old man over tremblingly.
The old man glanced into the pit and frowned, and said in a hoarse voice:
"That's right, it's Tai Sui, the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family, hurry up and buy liquor, buy more, buy five or six catties, you have to hurry up and soak Tai Sui in wine!"
The daughter-in-law of the Zhou family did not dare to delay and hurriedly went out to buy liquor, and after a while the liquor was bought, the old man asked him to find a large laundry basin and poured all the liquor into it, and asked me to carefully dig out this big piece of Tai Sui and put it in the wine basin.
I didn't feel anything, but these bricklayers were embarrassed when they heard about digging Tai Sui! was reluctant to do it for a long time, and later it was the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family who hurriedly said that she would add money, and the two of them gritted their teeth and agreed.
Take out Tai Sui and take a look!
Good guy, you have to have forty or fifty pounds, this thing is the first time I've seen it, I don't know if it's an animal or a plant, but it looks yellow and fleshy.
After Tai Sui was smoothly placed in the basin full of wine, the old man, who was several years old, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
I've only heard that it's unlucky for Tai Sui to break ground on his head, but I don't know what it means to dig up Tai Sui and make wine.
A group of us looked at Tai Sui, who was motionless in the basin, for a long time, and finally the bricklayer asked the old man what the mystery of doing this, and after a while, the old man sighed and said:
"Tai Sui's head is the most taboo, at this time, you must quickly dig it out, raise it in wine to get drunk, let it forget what happened, and then put it back at night, so that Tai Sui will not blame the little doll!"
The daughter-in-law of the Zhou family had already cried into a tearful person in fright, and when she heard the old man say this, she nervously hugged her son beside her.
Now Tai Sui has been soaked in wine, according to the old man, just wait for it to get dark and quietly bury it back!
The house can't be built, the two bricklayers said that they would not wait until the evening to help bury Tai Sui, the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family begged for a long time to no avail, so they had to pay the wages, and the two took the money and hurried away.
Although I don't read much, I've read some reports of Tai Sui, and this thing is said to be quite valuable! I wasn't scared and decided to stay and help!
The daughter-in-law of the Zhou family made a meal and beckoned me to go to the kitchen with the old man to have a meal, the old man went first, I was going to move the big basin containing Tai Sui to the side, I leaned over and bowed down and was about to stretch out my hand, and suddenly scared me a lot.
This Tai Sui actually moved!!
