54. Interlocking
I couldn't help but shout, "Linglong." ”
Linglong noticed that something was wrong with my eyes, and immediately turned her head to look behind her, and at the same time, her face showed a panicked look for the first time, and she asked me, "Did you see it, did you see him clearly?" ”
It turned out that Linglong had known that there was such a thing, so I said, "No, I only saw a hand on your shoulder." ”
Linglong then asked, "You really saw it, I can only feel it following me." But you can't see it, strange, how can you see it, it's not right. ”
Linglong said this, and looked at me with a speculative expression, I saw that although she was only ten years old, she did not look like a child at all, but it was not easy to say anything at this time, she came into the house, and said to me, "I don't know if you have ever seen such a thing." ”
So saying, she walked to the inside of the room, and I looked at her room, and according to my memory, the place where the coffin was placed was where her bed was, and the dresser was the altar, and the place where the paper figure was placed was the wardrobe, and I couldn't figure out what I saw that night, so I looked at Linglong.
Linglong had already taken out an object from the box, and I saw that it was a very small wooden box, square. There is no lacquer on the surface of the wood, but you can feel the roundness of the fine wood, and although I don't know what it is, it is definitely a rare good material.
I asked Linglong, "What is this?" ”
Linglong also took the box and looked at it, she said: "This is left by my grandfather, and my grandmother said that this thing is related to me, so she gave it to me." ”
I was about to ask her what this box had to do with what she was going to tell me, when my grandmother, who had been silent, suddenly asked Linglong in a loud voice like a demon: "How did you have this thing, where did you come from!" ”
Linglong was taken aback by her grandmother's expression, not to mention Linglong, even I was scared, so I asked my grandmother, "Grandma, what's wrong?" ”
But Grandma's eyes kept staring at the wooden box in Linglong's hand, and asked in a more stern tone, "How do you have this thing, say it quickly." ”
Linglong looked at grandma, I was afraid that grandma would scare Linglong. said again for Linglong: "Linglong said, this is something left by the earth master, grandma, you scared Linglong." ”
But grandma couldn't calm down at all. She was about to snatch the things in Linglong's hand, but Linglong avoided it, she also looked at her grandmother-for-tat, and asked angrily, "What do you want to do!" ”
I saw my grandmother go wrong. I thought it was some evil, so I immediately grabbed her, who knew that my grandmother sat down on the ground heavily, and then began to break down and cry, I only heard her say: "At that time, Yongning didn't know where to find this wooden box, but it turned out to be so ...... at a young age."
When she said this, she cried loudly, as if she had evoked something particularly sad, and when I heard the name "Yongning", I heard that my grandmother was talking about the uncle, and Yongning was the name of the uncle.
Hearing that my grandmother suddenly broke down and cried, I squatted down and helped my grandmother and said, "Grandma, what's the matter with Uncle and this wooden box, you should stand up first when the ground is cold." ”
Grandma cried for a while and then her emotions gradually calmed down. There was no longer the excitement when she first saw the wooden box, she wiped her tears and said to Linglong: "Linglong, Mrs. didn't scare you just now." ”
Linglong looked at her grandmother and said, "No." ”
Grandma said: "Linglong, I don't know what your family thinks of this wooden box, but Mrs. wants to say that this wooden box is not a good thing, it will kill people, at that time my family Yongning just don't know where to get such a wooden box, I see him often take it as a baby, but within a few months he died of illness for no reason, he said to me when he was dying - burn the wooden box, I was harmed by it, and I can't let it harm other people in the family." After saying that, he lost his breath, but then I searched all over the house and didn't find the wooden box again, look at what you took today, although I don't know if it's one, but it's exactly the same, especially the kind of energy I saw at first sight, it's just a mold carved out. ”
Linglong heard what her grandmother said, and looked at the wooden box again, she handed the wooden box to her grandmother and asked, "Auntie, take a closer look at whether it is the one you have seen, don't make a mistake." ”
Grandma then took the box, looked at it carefully, and said, "It's exactly the same as Yongning's, but I'm not sure if it's one." ”
Linglong said: "I also think this wooden box is evil, since my grandmother gave it to me, I feel that the thing is following me, but I can't see it, it stands to reason that this is unlikely, because grandma said that I was born with a yin eye, even if I am old, it has not dissipated, but I can't see this thing, but just now Brother Wood saw it, does this mean that Brother Wood also has a yin eye, can see something we can't see?" ”
Grandma looked at Linglong, then at me, and then said, "Your wooden brother doesn't have yin eyes, but because his yin soul is gone, he can see some of these things." ”
When Linglong heard this, she felt reasonable, so she didn't continue, so I asked Linglong, "Then what happened in your room that night I saw?" How did you sleep in a coffin? ”
Linglong said: "I have been haunted by this thing, grandma helped me make a magic altar, so that these things think that I am also a dead soul, has achieved the purpose of complementary invasion, but I don't think it works, that thing seems to have been in my room, I only know that they seem to be coming for this wooden box, but I don't know why." ”
I asked, "Against this wooden box?" ”
Linglong said, "Yes, they want to take it, I'm afraid that even you came to my house that night for this thing, just to tell you about the thing that lured you to come." ”
Linglong seemed to have some truth in saying this, so I asked my grandmother again: "Are you sure that the same wooden box that my uncle had at that time was missing?" ”
Grandma said, "The box has been kept by your uncle, and when he was dying, he told us where the wooden box was, and told us to burn it." But the place he was talking about was not there, and I couldn't find everything in his house, and I didn't know where he went. ”
Linglong asked, "Do you know where he got it from, or who gave it to him?" ”
Grandma said, "I don't know, we also asked him, but he didn't say, when he was dying, he had only one breath left, he only said that he wanted to destroy it, but he didn't say where he got it." ”
Linglong groaned and said: "Then this should not be the same, my grandfather's he said that this was given to him by a person in a dream, he said that in the dream he went out of his soul to a netherworld, where there were scattered coffins and mass graves, there was a young man who was so older than Brother Mu sat on the coffin, and gave this thing to my grandfather, and after my grandfather woke up, this wooden box was at the head of his bed." ”
Grandma listened and said, "If that's the case, then it shouldn't be one." ”
It's just that the speaker has no intention and the listener has the intention. Because the yin place that Linglong said is so similar to the place where I went when the sun light went out today, and even listening to her description is simply a place.
I asked Linglong: "Didn't the person who gave your grandfather say what this wooden box is for?" ”
Linglong said: "I heard my grandmother say that the man said - you help me keep this thing, and I will come to you to pick it up when I need it." ”
Hearing this, my grandmother suddenly straightened up, as if she had heard something terrible, she said: "I remember this sentence, Yongning also said something similar, although the original words did not say so, but the general meaning is this, saying that someone else temporarily kept it with him." ”
When I said this, my grandmother looked at me and said, "You may not remember the wood, Huaxiu didn't come to our house at that time, and you were able to walk very much, and at that time you went to his room and turned out this wooden box, and then your uncle said something like this to you." ”
