14, the cause of Hua Xiu's death
I didn't know what had happened to this well during the two years I had been mad, so I asked my mother, and my mother told me that the family had stopped drinking the water from this well since I was crazy, because they thought it was strange and even related to my madness, so they found a time to drain all the water from the well and went down to see if there was anything strange.
When she said this, my mother's expression changed a little, and it seemed that it was difficult to speak, but she took a deep breath and said that at last they found a corpse bound with silver thread in the well, and only a skeleton was left, and I don't know whose body it was, and the whole family almost threw up when they saw such a corpse. Because the water source we drank was actually soaked in corpse water, not to mention how disgusting it was, Mr. Bai was still alive at the time, and he still helped deal with our family's affairs. At that time, Mr. Bai said that the corpse was bound with silver thread, so this corpse was absolutely different.
Sure enough, less than half an hour after the corpse was taken out of the well, the original white bones suddenly turned jet black, and even the silver thread that bound it was completely blackened, as if it had been completely burned.
Mr. Bai suggested that it was best to get a wooden box and put the remains in it and seal it with rune paper to prevent chaos, and later the family did as Mr. Bai said. After the body was sealed, it was buried under the bridge at the entrance of the village, and it was disposed of like this.
As for the origin of this corpse, no one has inquired into it, and Mr. Bai said that he could not find the source of this corpse. That's it. In the end, I sprinkled lime in the well, and took a stone slab to seal the well completely, and this seal lasted for nearly two years, and there was no chaos after that, so it was done.
When my mother told me this, I remembered that there had been such a corpse in my imagination, probably because I had seen such a corpse carried out of the well, which was why I had some speculations about this corpse, including some things at the bottom of the well.
But when I said this, my mother suddenly said, "But the night the body was found, we found you missing." ”
When I heard my mother say this, I asked, "I'm gone, so where have I gone?" ”
My mother said, "You don't know how you ran into the well, you don't know how you got down, or if we heard what seemed to be another sound in the well and found you in the well, and I remember you like to talk to yourself at that time." But from the time I found you to the time I pulled you up, you didn't say a word, only your eyes kept looking at all of us gloomily, which was very scary. At first we were worried that something would happen to you, but the next day it was fine, and we didn't pay attention to it, and then the well was completely sealed. ”
My mom talked about it. But there are some similarities with my conjectures, probably the conjecture also comes from here, after so much verification, I found that all my conjectures are based on reality, not all of them are whimsical and cranky, I don't know if other people who are ghostly or mentally ill are also thinking like this, because there is no comparison and I am not good at making judgments, I can only secretly compare these in my heart and find out some things that I feel are regular. But thinking, especially after going crazy, feels like a complete whimsy, and I don't pay attention to it.
I was curious about how my husband died, and my mother muttered for a while before she said to me, "It's okay to tell you, but you don't have to think about it, it's not good if it's like before, and I'm afraid of scaring you." ”
I said, "It's fine. I can't be scared. ”
Then my mother said, "My husband's death is exactly the same as Hua Xiu's, and I guess he was killed by evil spirits." ”
I was stunned for a moment, but I didn't speak, I had seen Hua Xiu's death, this is not a fantasy, it is true, my imagination began to happen after I first hit the evil that night, and I have completely entered a state of madness since that night. I don't remember anything about what happened in reality, but I knew that since that night, I was completely immersed in my consciousness until I suddenly woke up in the middle of the night last night.
I asked my mom, "You know how Hanaxiu died, don't you?" ”
My mom looked at me. My grandmother mentioned this to me, but she didn't want to tell me, so I had to retreat and ask my mother, who loved me. Some things will not be hidden from me like my grandmother, and sure enough, my mother hesitated for a while and said to me: "Mr. Bai said that Huaxiu may have been pushed into the well by you." ”
I just felt like a thunderbolt exploded in my ears, and I blurted out, "What?!" ”
My mother saw that I reacted so much, and then comforted me first: "Don't worry, what I'm talking about is not that you want to push her down, but that your uncle was actually pestering you at that time, and it was your uncle who wanted to harm Huaxiu, but borrowed your hand." ”
I was puzzled: "But why did Uncle hurt Huaxiu?" ”
My mother said, "It seems that Hua Xiu and your uncle's fate are in conflict, and it is said that your uncle has been hovering at home, but we don't know it." ”
When I heard this, I began to suspect one thing, and asked my mother, "Is my uncle really sick and dead?" ”
My mother heard this and said, "He died of illness." I couldn't be treated when I went to the hospital, so I could only raise it at home, in fact, I just waited for death. ”
I asked, "What is it?" ”
My mom said, "I don't know, I don't really intervene to ask, it seems that something is wrong with my lungs." ”
I asked my mother, "Is it possible that my uncle was also entangled in something, so it seems that he is sick, but in fact he is haunted by evil spirits, but you don't see it?" ”
As soon as I said that, my mom looked at me in complete amazement. Then he said, "Yes, but who would have thought about it, and your grandmother also asked her husband to help him see it, but she didn't see anything, probably not." ”
It should be the earth master himself, that is, Mr. Bai's master, who helped the uncle to see it, and I couldn't figure out what was going on, so I fell into deep thought. What I have never been able to understand is why my uncle is pestering me, I always feel a little weird.
Then I asked my mother about the situation in the well, and the well was just a well, just a corpse bound by silver thread, and there was no space below it, and naturally there were no ghosts and bodhisattvas.
And one thing I am still very concerned about is whether there is a coffin in the attic of the north wing, I asked my mother, my mother said that the attic is used to pile up sundries, she has also gone up, and there is nothing else, it is all miscellaneous things, and my mother is afraid that I will not believe it and took me up to see, I did see that there are just some sundries piled up on it, and there is no so-called coffin and strange door and the like, which also further confirms that these are just my imagination, not real, so the identity of my grandmother is also my imagination.
In addition to being disappointed, I couldn't help but feel that the brain's ability to deceive people can be so realistic that things that have never happened at all, even as if they had happened like this, even if I have become a normal person now, and when I think of these things, it is like my past life, and it is kind of integrated into my memory.
And that's what scares me the most, once these assumptions are integrated into my memory, then it doesn't mean that my memory will be confused. Something that obviously didn't happen is also imposed on the memory, so that I feel that it happened, so when the time comes, will I be a normal person, or will I fall into madness again?
It suddenly occurred to me that this was a question that I couldn't figure out.
Then I asked my mother, "So why did she hang herself from the beam when I pushed her down the well?" ”
When I asked this, I wondered if I had fished her out of the well again, and the more I thought about it, the more terrifying I felt, and what my mother said was even more terrifying, she told me: "Mr. Bai speculated that you might have been possessed by your uncle and pushed Huaxiu into the well, but Huaxiu climbed out of the well after drowning in the well, and then hung herself on the beam. ”
When my mom said this, I suddenly remembered the man I saw on the beam last night when I woke up, so I grabbed my mom and said, "Is it it?" ”
