The next morning, I went to the Cantonese restaurant downstairs for morning tea. A pot of Tieguanyin, a cage of shrimp dumplings, and a radish cake. Simply poured into my appetite. Presumably, there are very few people of my age who particularly like to drink tea, and I am no exception, but I only like the taste of tea, and that is Tieguanyin. After Tieguanyin brewing, there is a special aroma, fragrant but strong, and the aroma is long-lasting, no wonder there are seven bubbles with the reputation of aftertaste.

I was drinking tea, and suddenly a man came in at the door of the restaurant, this person was about fifty or sixty years old, but he was in good spirits, although his hair was a little gray, but his waist was straight, and he walked with a breeze. Behind him were two men in their thirties, who were very vigilant and first took a closer look at the restaurant as they entered.

The three of them sat down in a position at the door, ordered a pot of tea and some food, and began to chat, intentionally or unintentionally. I felt like they were talking about something special, because the three of them often whispered to each other. Somehow, the older man seemed to notice that I was looking at them, and suddenly he looked up at me, and the eyes of the two of us met at once. I was a little uncomfortable, and I felt like I was caught by my elders doing bad things.

But the older man, instead of showing any displeasure, smiled at me. I hurriedly turned my gaze to the side, feeling a little uneasy. It was also because of this that I aroused my curiosity about them, and I still glanced at them from time to time.

After a while, I was suddenly tapped on the shoulder, and I turned my head to see that it was the second uncle. He smiled at me, "I'm tired every day, why do you think you're so comfortable!" ”

The second uncle sat down opposite me with a big grin, picked up a shrimp dumpling on the table, threw it into his mouth, and I quickly poured him a cup of tea: "Second uncle, have you had breakfast, can you see what else to eat?" ”

The second uncle waved his hand, "No need, what time is it, it's time for lunch." ”

In the interval between I poured tea for the second uncle, I passed through the second uncle, and inadvertently glanced at the table just now, and then I found that the three people at the table all turned their heads to look at us, I was shocked, my hand shook, and a stream of tea was poured outside.

The second uncle was taken aback, "Hey! Sprinkled sprinkled! ”

I came to my senses, hurriedly took out a few napkins, and wiped the table for the second uncle, and when I looked over again, the people had already turned their heads back.

The second uncle frowned and looked at me, "Something is wrong with you kid, what are you looking at?" As he spoke, he turned his head and followed my gaze. Who knew that the second uncle looked at it, as if he had a spring on his neck, and he quickly turned back after brushing it, and he was still muttering, "Damn!" How did you meet them here? ”

It sounded as if the second uncle knew them, so I hurriedly asked him, "Who are they, second uncle?" ”

The second uncle glared at me, "Don't ask around the children!" Let's go! ”

I have ten thousand doubts and puzzles in my heart, but seeing the nervous state of the second uncle, I think I should hear him first for the time being.

The two of us had just stood up, and as soon as I looked up, I saw a man in his thirties at the table coming up.

My heart sank, and my heart said badly, I can't go! I asked the second uncle in a low voice, "What should we do?" ”

The second uncle pressed his palm on me and signaled me to calm down.

The man walked up to us and arched his hand to the second uncle, "Second master, our grandfather invites you two to come and sit down." ”

The second uncle smiled slightly, "An Ye is polite, we still have important things to do today, I will invite An Ye another day!" "Pull me and leave.

The man stepped in front of us in one step, "Please also ask the second master to appreciate his face and give him a face!" ”

The second uncle's eyes were cold, "You dare to stop me!" ”

The man hurriedly lowered his head, "Second master, don't make it difficult for you." ”

The second uncle turned his head to look at the elder on the table, only to see the latter, who was smiling and nodding at the second uncle, and stretched out his hand to make a gesture of please.

The second uncle groaned slightly, turned around and walked towards the table, and I had to follow behind the second uncle.

An Ye sat on the chair, saw us approaching, and spoke, looking full of energy, "Please sit down." Then he smiled, "I didn't expect to meet the second master here, it's a blessing!" ”

The second uncle pulled me to sit down generously, and also smiled, "Master An, you don't have to be polite, speaking of which, you are also my elder, you can just call me Qiu." "The second uncle's full name is Zhuo Qiuye.

An Ye nodded, looked up and said to the other two people: "Qi Feng, Ma Zhong, hurry up and pour tea for the guests!" The other two were busy pouring me and my second uncle a cup of tea.

An Ye said to the second uncle: "Qiu Ye, I told you something last time, how did you think about it?" If you come over, I won't look for another person, let's put up this pot, and then half split, how about it? This is a big cauldron, if this job is done, you will not be able to enjoy it in the future! ”

The second uncle nodded, "Master An, you are lifting me, I understand." But our money is second, credit first, I have already responded to someone else's warehouse in Shanxi, you and I really lack skills! "Anyway, the second uncle smiled, "Besides, Master An, if this pot doesn't have me, according to your identity as the head of Yuanhengtang, how many big rakes will come before they beckon." And with your power, it's not difficult to carry it yourself. Don't embarrass me, O you! As he spoke, the second uncle arched his hand at An Ye.

After hearing this, An Ye laughed, and suddenly turned his gaze to me, "Who is this little brother?" How can I look at the similarities between your eyebrows? ”

The second uncle patted me on the shoulder, "This is my nephew, and it's normal for me to imagine." Then he turned to me and said, "Come, I've seen An Ye!" ”

I hurriedly got up and shouted respectfully: "Anye! ”

An Ye motioned for me to sit down, "Sure enough, he is a talent, and his instruments are extraordinary!" Then, he turned his head to the second uncle and deliberately lowered his voice, but I could hear it clearly, and I only heard him say to the second uncle: "How is it?" Have you entered the industry? ”

The second uncle hurriedly shook his head, and also whispered to An Ye: "Our old Zhuo family is the only seedling, I have to protect it, even if I fight for my life!" Ha ha! ”

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, but I saw Mars in the eyes of the two of them.

The second uncle got up suddenly and hugged his fist at An Ye, "An Ye, don't bother today, let's not change the green mountains, and the green water will flow forever!" ”

An Ye also nodded, "Don't send it!" ”

I went back to the room with my second uncle, and I asked my second uncle, "Why do they call you Second Master, and who is Uncle?" ”

The second uncle replied without replying: "They know that I am the second oldest brother in the family, so they call me the second master, and it is not appropriate to say my name." ”

"The name doesn't fit?" I muttered to myself, "Zhuo Qiu, Yeye?" After reading a sentence, I reacted at once, and couldn't help laughing, "It's really not suitable, you're all up!" ”

The second uncle didn't smile, and walked to the window with a gloomy face.

The smile on my face gradually put away, and I felt that I needed to have a good talk with my second uncle. I poured a cup of tea and handed it to the second uncle, and then looked at him very seriously.

The second uncle looked at my expression and couldn't help sighing, "Zhuo Ran, I know what you want to ask?" Actually, I really don't want you to know, I want you to live your life in peace. ”

I smiled bitterly, "Second uncle, now that it's over, do you think I can still be calm?" ”

The second uncle also shook his head, "Back then, your grandfather also wanted to hide it from us, from your father, from your three aunts, but only from me." I thought it would be over in my generation, but there was another you! It's fate! ”

I was told by the second uncle to be more eager to know what happened, so I hurriedly urged: "Second uncle, now that the matter is over, you can say it all!" You can't hide it! ”

The second uncle sighed and sat in the chair, "Things have to start from when I was young. Do you remember what I once told you, my experience with the corpse coffin in Bloody Wuzhen? ”

I nodded hurriedly, "Of course I remember, I saw a similar coffin in the Qilian Mountain Ancient Tomb last time. ”

"Oh?" When the second uncle heard my words, he was shocked, "Then what did you encounter?" Hearing the second uncle's question, my mind suddenly appeared again, the face of the dried corpse smiling at me outside the entrance of the dark river cave, and instantly a layer of goosebumps appeared on my back.

I quickly shook my head, "Ah, it's nothing, fortunately we withdrew quickly." ”

The second uncle nodded, "After those villagers dug up the strange coffin, everyone was about to open the coffin, I wanted to stop it, but no one listened, and then a beggar appeared, and he broke the origin and doorway of this coffin, and it was also from his mouth that I knew about the bloody Wuzhen corpse coffin." ”

"yes, I remember." I said, "You also said that this beggar gave you a cloth bag and let you come back alive." ”

"That's right." The second uncle took a sip of tea, "But actually, I didn't finish telling you about the matter, because when this beggar was leaving, he looked at me and said a word." ”

"What?" I asked hurriedly.

The second uncle looked into the distance, "He said to me, why is Faqiu Zhiyin afraid of ghosts and gods!" It's a pity, it's a At the time, I thought it was strange and didn't know what it meant. I took a closer look at this so-called old beggar, only to find that he just spoke in a voice that looked old and a little hunchbacked, but his eyes were very bright, but his face was too dirty to see his age, but I thought that he should not be too old, at least not old, this should be his deliberate disguise, and then he left. Later, when the villagers who participated in the opening of the coffin died in front of the coffin, I hurriedly escaped, but it was the first time I encountered such a strange thing, and I was so scared that I didn't even know how I got home. ”

The second uncle was a little distracted, as if he was recalling the past......

After the second uncle returned home, he fell ill all of a sudden, without any other symptoms, but shivered and was very cold. It was summer, and the temperature outside could be thirty or forty degrees, but the second uncle was shivering uncontrollably when he was lying on the bed and covered with three layers of quilts.

Grandpa asked the second uncle if he had encountered something outside, and the second uncle thought that he was just suffering from the cold, and he was also afraid that he would be scolded by his grandfather if he said that he was bleeding from the coffin in Wuzhen, because he knew that his father was the most taboo about this kind of thing. So the second uncle stiffened up and didn't say anything, only said that he had a cold. Grandpa prepares cold medicine for his second uncle every day, but it does not get better. Grandma washes her face with tears every day, and the second uncle doesn't eat water and rice every day, so if it goes on like this, he won't be able to stay up for long.

Until one day, grandpa accidentally found out from the clothes that the second uncle wore back that the little cloth bag that the beggar gave him at the beginning, he was so angry that he threw the cloth bag in front of the second uncle's eyes, and scolded: "You rebel, if you don't tell the truth, I'll kill you now!" ”
