Chapter 007: Spirit

After the yellow skin slipped away, nothing strange happened.

In the early morning of the next day, it began to drizzle, and today was the day of grandpa's funeral.

I, Zhilan and my second uncle took advantage of the light rain and knelt in front of my grandfather's coffin, watching my grandfather's body being sent into the coffin, and behind me was the whimpering sound of the villagers.

My grandfather was the head of the village before his death, and he usually took good care of the villagers, and his reputation was very good.

The hour has come. As the eldest grandson, I carried the spirit flag in front of the coffin and sent my grandfather on his last journey.

"Spirit!" I carried the spirit flag and let out a loud sigh.

Subsequently, the loud suona and gongs and drums will be lit up to send the spirit.

I carried the spirit flag and cried, led the way, to the ancestral grave of the family, everything was calm, but I walked two steps, but I didn't feel the coffin bearer following me, I felt strange, turned around and looked, the eight old men, even the face of the red did not lift the coffin.

The eight coffin bearers have been doing this work in the village all year round, and their strength is needless to say.

I was shocked, what is going on?

Before I could react, the villagers' cries stopped and whispered, saying that the old man had a last wish that had not been fulfilled and was unwilling to leave? He also said that our Zhao family is in the paper business, and always deals with dead people, is it that the old man is hooked by something and can't leave.

In short, you say a word to me, and you can't finish it.

Seeing this situation, the second uncle immediately stepped forward and said: "This coffin is golden silk nanmu, which is naturally a little heavy, the villagers use a little strength, and after the matter is completed, there will be red envelopes sent to the house." ”

These eight coffin bearers have been trying hard to lift the coffin, but the coffin does not move, and they can't help it, seeing my second uncle say this, the leader replied: "Jianwen, what you said is out of sight, after the village chief had an accident, we have been helping without a word, and now the funeral is not to sit on the ground and ask for your red envelope, but we really can't lift this coffin......"

As soon as these words came out, the second uncle was also embarrassed, and he didn't know what to say, and I just returned to the village, most people didn't know me, and I couldn't speak in front of people, and I was thinking about what to do when I heard Zhilan stand up and Zhang Luo.

"My brother just came back two days ago, and my master is missing my brother and is unwilling to leave, it's not a big deal. Let my brother kneel in front of my master's coffin for the time being and say a few words, and then a few strong young men, follow the coffin together, everyone is a neighbor, and everyone will inevitably have a problem, and today is troublesome for everyone. ”

Zhilan has been at home for so many years, helping her grandfather do things, and she has more trust in the hearts of the villagers, her words are obviously more useful than me at the moment, and everyone has done it.

Eight young and strong lads stood beside the old coffin bearer, and divided half of the weight of the burden.

And I, taking two steps forward, knelt in front of my grandfather's coffin: "Grandpa, my grandson is not filial, and he failed to give you a pension to the end, you have to blame me, just come to me at night to give me a dream, and if my grandson can make up for it, I must make up for it!" ”

These words are the true expression of my heart, so I unconsciously shed a few tears, and then I took a few steps closer, put my forehead against the coffin, and whispered: "Grandpa, you can go in peace, I will definitely avenge your revenge." ”

After saying that, I snorted three times, stood up, and said again: "Spirit! ”
