005 - The Dead Man's Pit after the Earthquake

When the girl came over, she ignored the man, but stopped in front of me and my grandmother, her eyes fell on the oil lamp I was carrying, and asked my grandmother, "Old lady, you don't like to come to see the incense, do you have something else to do when you come to find the second fairy girl?" ”

Grandmother didn't say it explicitly, and after scanning the people in front of her, she asked, "May I ask you, are you a relative of the second immortal aunt?" ”

After hearing this, the girl raised her hand and pointed to the oil lamp in my hand, and said, "It's not a relative, it's a friend, and the lamp you are carrying is mine." ”

Hearing this, my grandmother was a little excited, and just as the man who had been chatting with us left before, my grandmother quickly let the girl go to the corner of the yard, and then asked with a smile: "Girl, the second fairy aunt said last night that a friend will come to visit him today, is it you?" ”

The girl didn't speak, but nodded.

When my grandmother saw it, she quickly snatched the oil lamp in my hand, sent it to the girl, and said, "The second fairy aunt said, when I saw you, let us show you this lamp, saying that you are a master and can help us?" ”

"Did you encounter something tricky?"

After the girl finished speaking, she took the lamp and glanced at it, then turned back and glanced into the room before frowning and said, "If I guessed correctly, Sister Huang died because of your business, right?" ”

The grandmother stopped talking, because she didn't know what to say.

When the girl saw it, she said: "Don't be afraid, even if it has something to do with you, I can't blame you, Sister Huang is cultivating the right path, and it is her duty to help you." When I came at noon, the people in the county were already giving Sister Huang an autopsy, and under the strangulation marks on her neck, two large purple handprints could still be seen at that time, but then they slowly disappeared by themselves, and the forensic doctor saw that there were no signs of a fight in the house, and there were no injuries on her body, so he directly identified a self-hanging, but I could see that there was something wrong here, and it was a big deal......

Hearing her say this, I couldn't help but ask: "What do you mean, the second fairy aunt was strangled to death first and then hung on the beams of the house?" ”

The girl turned her head, stared at me and replied, "It's right to strangle me first, but when I came out, I said that it wasn't a person who pinched it, it was a ghost who asked for his life." ”

Even though it was daytime, I still heard this with a chill.

At this time, I saw the girl sigh, stared at the lamp in her hand and said: "I calculated that Sister Huang had a catastrophe in her life, so I gave her this lamp half a year ago, hoping to save her life at a critical time, but I didn't expect to save her, originally we were determined not to get drunk tonight, it seems that there is no chance......"

"So, if she hadn't given us this lamp, it would have been fine?" Grandmother asked.

The girl nodded, and after only saying 'It's inconvenient here', she took me and my grandmother out of the yard, and then stopped under a corner not far from the second fairy aunt's house, and then said: "Although Sister Huang and I are not the same way, but she is kind to me, since she entrusted you to me, then I will definitely take care of this matter, not only to take care of it, but also to avenge Sister Huang, what is going on, you can tell me......

After hearing this, my grandmother hurriedly asked me to tell me about my situation and what happened at Huang Erxian Gu's house last night, and when I said it, I saw that the girl's face became more and more solemn, and when she said that Erxian Gu suddenly kowtowed desperately to the northwest and wanted to knock herself to death, the girl's hand trembled.

After I finished speaking, the girl didn't speak immediately, but frowned and was silent for a while, and suddenly raised her hand to the northwest and asked, "What is the place from Huangjiagouzi to the northwest?" ”

The grandmother replied, "The northwest side of Huangjiagouzi is our village. ”

The girl nodded, and then asked, "There should be another piece of yin land between the two villages, right?" ”

"The Underworld is ......"

"To put it simply, it's a place where yin qi is heavy."

"That's true!" Grandmother nodded and said, "There is a cemetery in front of the entrance of our village. ”

"Graveyard...... It shouldn't be that simple......"

The girl frowned again and pondered, and when I heard this, I also remembered something, so I tugged at my grandmother's sleeve and said, "Milk, didn't you tell me that many people died in the earthquake that year, and then they ......?"

"Yes, yes, I'm really confused, how did I forget this!" The grandmother slapped her leg and hurriedly said, "Girl, the cemetery used to be a big dead man's pit......

This is a real thing, there was a big earthquake on our side back then, or a few decades ago, the earthquake time was exactly two or three o'clock in the night, every family was sleeping and had no time to run, as a result, the house was photographed and killed a lot of people, the old man who had experienced it said, at that time, he saw a sudden flash of light in the far place, and then the ground began to shake, and everything fell in the blink of an eye, and almost all the places were razed.

At that time, the rescue conditions were poor, the rescue team could not enter at all a week after the earthquake, the people could only save themselves, desperately digging people in the ruins to find food, the dead people who were dug out were placed side by side on the flat ground, and the living people were temporarily living in a shed next to them, the scene was very miserable, and then they were afraid that the dead would stink and make a plague, so they had no choice but to dig a long pit outside the village, and bury the dead together.

Later, the location of the big pit became a cemetery, not only in our village, but also in several surrounding villages.

After the grandmother finished speaking, the girl frowned and was silent for a long time before she said: "It seems that there is something in that place, and the Tao is not shallow, otherwise Sister Huang can't be scared like that, and the immortal Tao on her body is not low." ”

Then the girl said to her grandmother, "Take the money, old lady, and I'll take care of your business, but you must prepare a few things for me first." ”

The grandmother nodded again and again, and the girl said: "You go and prepare twenty catties of soybeans, two bottles of wine, pen and ink yellow paper, and a white cloth, Huangjiagouzi has cooked food, and then buy twelve grilled chickens back, and help me prepare a big water tank, I have a ...... tonight."

My grandmother's brain was not very good, and she took a long time to memorize it with her fingers, and hurriedly trotted all the way to prepare things, leaving me alone. After my grandmother left, the girl asked me again, "When you went back last night, Sister Huang only gave you a lamp, didn't you prepare anything else?" ”

"And this."

I quickly took out the pig-killing knife wrapped in a red cloth from my waist, and the girl kicked the knife into her arms and carried me out of the village.

Walking around outside the village, the girl finally took me into an orchard, and took advantage of the fact that the fruit farmer did not pay attention, broke a thick peach tree branch and brought it out, and then the girl took out my pig-killing knife, sat on the ground and began to cut the branch with the pig-killing knife, and then took me back to the house of the second fairy aunt.

When we came back, it was already evening, and there were not so many people in the family of the second fairy aunt, only a few relatives were left to clean up the house, and the body was also carried to the old courtyard of the family so that the funeral would be more convenient.

It can be seen that this girl is very familiar with the Huang family, and after discussing it with a few relatives of Erxian Gu, the other party agreed to lend the house of Erxian Gu to us for one night temporarily, after all, someone had just died, and it was empty, and then another hour passed, when it got dark, the grandmother who went out to prepare things also came back, and it was not a person who came back, followed by a white-haired old man, pushing a 28 bicycle, and a hemp bag was tied to the back bracket of the car.

Entering the yard, the old man began to unload the sack without saying a word, and took out the soybeans, roast chicken, pen and ink yellow paper inside, grandmother wanted to help but the old man stopped me, grandmother dragged me over, smiled and introduced me and said: "Little Liuzi, call the fifth master, he is your father's good buddy back then, these two people, they used to fool around together, and they were scolded by the old recruits, and now they sell cooked food in Huangjiagouzi, and now they are thanks to the help of others......

The old man turned around and glanced at me, and then laughed while unloading things: "Sister-in-law, what are you doing with that, it's all eight lifetimes." ”

I called 'Fifth Master', and swept him by the way, this old man has two kitchen knives stuck in his waist, and a copper cigarette pole pinned to his trouser belt, which is really quite my grandfather's 'style', although it is the first time to meet, but there is an inexplicable sense of intimacy.
