When I entered the back room, my grandfather asked me, "Long Wa, tell grandpa honestly, who is that Ding Xiaoyan?" ”

I said, "Be a teacher." ”

"Don't lie!"

Grandpa's eyes are very keen, to be precise, it is the adults who have seen through the child's little tricks: "I have been to Tianfu No. 7 Middle School, and I know all the teachers who teach history there, there is no teacher surnamed Kang at all, and I didn't send anything over, I just deliberately tricked her." Who the hell is she? How did you meet? ”

I panicked for a while, and quickly explained: "Yes, she is not a teacher, but she is definitely not the kind of bad girl in society." I'll tell you the truth, she doesn't have a job yet, so she lied to you in order to make a good impression on you. But you can't just ...... just because someone else doesn't have a job."

Grandpa interrupted me and said, "That's not what I'm talking about!" ”

"What's that?"

Grandpa looked back at the living room, and he was very careful, as if he was watching for danger, and finally closed the door and continued to me: "There are some things you may not believe. Long Wa, do you believe that there are ghosts in the world? ”

When I heard my grandfather's words, I broke out in a cold sweat, how should I answer? Say you believe it? Still don't believe it?

After some thought, I nodded and said I believe.

Grandpa continued: "There is something in the wall of the cabinet behind you, take it out quietly for a while, and at night you ask Na Ding Xiaoyan to go to the top of the building to find me." ”

I asked, "Grandpa, what are you going to do?" ”

Grandpa looked at me and slowly said two words from his mouth: "Extinguish, ghost." ”

Grandpa's voice was not loud, but these two words fell on my ears like thunder, and I only felt a chill down my spine!

I'm too young, I look down on my grandfather, how could someone who was able to enter the dangerous Ten Absolute Grievances Mausoleum alone 23 years ago not see that the woman I brought home was a human and a ghost.

I realized that if I didn't have a showdown, the rest would be out of control. So I hurriedly called my grandfather, took the black wooden box out of the bag, and recited the secret words that Su Yunfei taught me: "Set the plate and hang the daughter, Haizi hexagram sounds, hook and kick the pole, pour the big top Yuanliang, and the moon Zhaozi Yuancai can't be packed." ”

Grandpa's face was shocked, his face instantly turned pale, and he looked at me for more than half a minute before he continued: "There is no Yuanliang." Moving firewood on the mountain and burning the fire under the mountain, dare to ask this top Yuanliang, where did he divide the mountain armor and dismantle how many mounds? ”

I said, "The same mountain carries firewood down the mountain to burn the fire, people light candles, ghosts blow out lamps, roosters crow and lights go out, and do not touch gold." ”

"Dragon baby! How could you do this? ”

Grandpa grabbed me and asked anxiously, "These are all the code words of Captain Jin, who taught you?" How did you find this black box? ”

"Grandpa."

At this time, Sima Yan pushed the door and entered, "Yaoyang has already been to the Yashan Ancient Tomb and also worshiped the Tianqing Dragon Gate, so he can feel the existence of energy. ”

As soon as he heard this, his grandfather thought about it, and then raised his head sharply and exclaimed: "Yashan Song Dynasty Ancient Tomb!" It turned out to be you, you were the female ghost?! ”

Sima Yan nodded, and the grandfather continued: "Can't you let my grandson go?" Fate in the previous life, chaos in the Three Realms, what does it have to do with my grandson? He's just a kid and I just want him to be safe. ”

"Grandpa, I ......"

Grandpa interrupted Sima Yan and said, "Shut up! Although you saved me 23 years ago, I also told you that the events of the past life have nothing to do with this life. I'm not your grandfather! There's no way my grandson can be with you as a female ghost! If you work hard again, even if I fight for this old life, I will destroy you! ”

"Don't, grandpa!!"

I hurriedly stood in front of Sima Yan and said firmly: "Xiaoyan and I really love each other. To tell you the truth, we are married, she is now my natal ghost, and if she dies, I will die. Xiaoyan is your granddaughter-in-law, you can recognize it, and you have to recognize it if you don't recognize it! ”

"What?!"

Grandpa suddenly crumbled, and Sima Yan and I hurriedly stepped forward to support him.

It took me more than half an hour to tell everything about the night of July and a half and the time I went home. After hearing this, Grandpa sighed, shook his head and said, "Alas, create evil, create evil." In the end, the one who should have come came, but I didn't expect to be able to avoid this disaster after all. ”

I asked, "Grandpa, how did you know about the Yashan Ancient Tomb back then?" ”

Grandpa said: "This matter has to start with my master." I have two masters, one is a carpenter and the other is a tomb robber. ”

"What are you doing in the house?"

At this time, grandma suddenly knocked on the door: "Carpenter Chen! At noon, why do you call the children to your room without eating? ”

"Oh, I'm sealing red envelopes for Long Wa and Yan Yan. Right away. ”

Grandpa got up, looked at Sima Yan and me for a long time, and finally took our hands and put them together, and said, "I'll go get some willow leaves, eat the meal first, and I'll tell you slowly in the evening." ”

……

At dusk, Sima Yan and I followed my grandfather to the rooftop of the building.

Grandpa opened the wooden box I had taken out of the wall, and it contained a necklace-like accessory. I took it and looked at it carefully, the front end of the object is sharp, the lower end of the cone is inlaid with gold wire, the color is pitch black and transparent, and there is a moist light against the dusk, which is very beautiful.

I asked, "Grandpa, what is this?" ”

Grandpa said: "Touch the golden talisman." ”

Sima Yan and I looked at each other in disbelief at the thing in our hands.

Tomb robbery is divided into four major factions, hair mound, touch gold, move mountains, unload mountains, each faction has its own faction to ward off evil things, hair mound has a seal, touch gold has a charm, is not in my hand is to touch the gold school captain to wear the "touch gold talisman".

Touching the gold talisman is to use the sharpest claws of the pangolin as raw materials, first soak the ditch in the mountain for 7749 days, and then bury it in the ground of the dragon tower 100 meters deep, borrow the leyline aura for 800 days, more than an inch long, black and bright, hard and incomparable, the talisman body carries the two ancient seal words engraved with "touch the gold", there is a protective purpose, extremely evil spirits, of course, it is mainly a symbol of identity.

What was in my mind when I first saw this thing?

I can responsibly tell you that I think of money!

According to legend, there were originally nine gold talismans, but six were destroyed during the Ming Dynasty, and only three remained. This Nima is a priceless treasure!! If it is sold, it will be enough for our family to eat for several lifetimes.

Sima Yan coughed, then glared at me, presumably because she knew about the idea of selling the golden talisman.

So I smiled awkwardly and hung the gold talisman around my neck.

Grandpa lit himself a cigarette, and it was the first time I'd ever seen him smoke when I was so old, and he coughed, apparently choked, before telling the story that changed his life......

Grandpa was born in 1950, the second in the family, with an older sister and two younger sisters. Grandpa has been in poor health since he was a child, and he gets sick every once in a while.

What disease?

Slippery bone disease!

But this is what it used to be called, and now in medicine, it is called "congenital soft tissue dysplasia". The joints on my grandfather's body are particularly easy to fall off, and it won't hurt to fall off, just push it back.

At the end of the 50s, at that time, the family basically couldn't afford to eat, because my great-grandfather was ostracized by the neighborhood because of his special status, and my grandfather was almost starved to death several times.

Hearing this, I understood why my great-grandfather was always so angry when I was a picky eater when I was a child.

But......

It is said that people are good at being bullied, and horses are good at being ridden.

My great-grandmother was later wrongfully accused of stealing food, and was captured by a group of people shouting "Restore justice" and paraded through the streets.

In fact, at that time, my great-grandmother was just an object of suspicion, but as the so-called excitement is not a big deal, everyone thought that my great-grandmother had stolen something.

Grandpa wiped away tears from the corners of his eyes, and scenes from that time came to his mind: "How could your great-grandmother, who was kind-hearted, loyal and honest, steal something?" Even if she steals, how can a mother not share it with her children? Later, your great-grandmother was not willing to accept the humiliation and hanged herself on the beams of the house, and even the coffin was made of wood taken from the pigsty. ”

I looked to the sky and tried not to let the tears fall.

Yes, in the eyes of the masses, the truth does not matter at all, what matters is whether there is a good show to watch.

(To borrow the plot of a certain movie as a metaphor: everyone doesn't care how many bowls of noodles Liuzi ate, everyone just wants to see Liuzi commit suicide.) ）

Getting back to business, but even so, grandpa never gave up on life.

But the family is getting poorer day by day, and the kraft vegetables on the mountain are almost eaten up by the villagers.

Later, in order to ease the burden, my great-grandfather had to reluctantly send my grandfather's two younger sisters out of the house.

When my grandfather heard the news, he scolded my great-grandfather for having no conscience......

I didn't go through that period of history, so I couldn't understand how much pain my great-grandfather and grandfather felt at that time......

If he hadn't been born in such an era, who would be a father in the world who would ruthlessly give away his flesh and blood to others?

Grandpa said: "I was still young at that time, and I ran away from home in a fit of anger. Later, I met the master who changed my life. ”

At that time, my grandfather originally planned to pick up a car and go to Chongqing, and then find a job to support himself, but he was found out of the car halfway through.

In the evening, it snowed heavily in the sky. You must know that people with slippery bone disease can't stand the wind and cold, and the symptoms are caused by walking for a long time.

Just when Grandpa thought he was going to die in this wilderness, a light suddenly flickered in the snow, and it was not until the light got closer and closer that he saw that it was a man with a flashlight.

The visitor was dressed in a tattered military coat and wearing a dogskin hat, and at first his grandfather thought it was a "camp devil" who was logging in the mountains.

The man said that he was a gold digger in the mountains, and when he heard about my grandfather's illness, he suddenly said: "It is better to be like this, you can be an apprentice for me, and then follow me to the mountains to pan for gold, and while panning for gold, I will cure the disease." Feasible? ”

Grandpa was overjoyed, thinking that he could learn a gold panning craft and cure diseases, where to find such a good thing, so he immediately nodded and left with the so-called gold guest.

But when the grandfather followed the man into the mountains after worshipping the master, he realized that the person in front of him was a gold digger, and he was clearly a grave digger!

At that time, the grandfather was frightened and cried and refused to work, and the tomb robber grabbed him by the collar, pointed to the mouth of the fox-like robbery cave in front of him, and said, "Boy, if it weren't for the fact that you were born to slippery, I would have taken you?" Be obedient and obedient, become my apprentice, and in the future, you will be indispensable for eating and drinking spicy food. ”

It is normal for a tomb robber to encounter rocks under the soil layer, but if there are too many rocks, or if they are too hard, then only tomb robbers who have practiced bone shrinking skills can enter.

And my grandfather was born with slippery bones, and when he pushed the joint, the whole person was like a deflated ball, able to drill small holes, similar to the principle of bone shrinkage, just enough to become a helper.

Grandpa was only seven years old at the time, and the tomb robber was fierce, and he did not dare to disobey, so he could only obey his orders.
