Chapter 4: The Wake Spirit

Just when I was running towards the Taoist temple in a hurry and out of breath, the mobile phone rang at an inopportune time.

When I saw that it was my dad calling, I was afraid that something would happen to him and my mom.

When the phone was connected, the other end said, "Your third uncle is dead, come over quickly." ”

My third uncle is only in his forties, why did he die suddenly? And it's so good to die or not, to die today, is it so coincidental?

"The sound of firecrackers just now was from the third uncle?"

"Well, you're coming back." My dad said.

"Dad, my master wants me to rush back to Baiyun Temple before dark." I explained.

"Master?" My dad was shocked.

Before I could explain, my dad understood what I meant, and he said angrily on the other end of the phone, "Who allowed you to become a monk in Baiyunguan?" I don't agree with your mother! ”

"Do you want to see your son die?" Originally, I didn't want to say these words, for fear of frightening my parents, but seeing that it was getting dark, I didn't know what would happen if I didn't look back.

"It's not like your uncle is ......"

Before he could finish speaking, I interrupted him: "Did you and my mother let my uncle manipulate me and Liu Qian'er's birthdays?" ”

My dad didn't reply to me, but looked left and right and said to him, "You come back quickly." ”

Hanging up the phone, I saw that I couldn't go back to Baiyunguan before dark, so I had to go home.

When I returned home, I learned that the third uncle had gone to the town to buy meat in the morning, but when he came back, he passed by the crockpot river and fell off the bridge and drowned.

After listening to my father's description, I always felt that something was wrong, the crockpot bridge was narrow and low, the water under the bridge was not turbulent, and it was unlikely that a strong laborer would drown even if he fell.

Moreover, the third uncle's water quality is very good, and he can hold his breath underwater for five minutes.

Before I could figure it out, my dad said, "Your third uncle is gone, you will keep a wake for him tonight, and you will go up the mountain early tomorrow morning." ”

I hesitated, but finally nodded, poor third uncle is gone, according to the customs of his hometown, I should indeed send him to the end.

Fortunately, although the third uncle is lonely and widowed, he is warm-hearted on weekdays, and after his death, several people in the village accompany me to keep a watch, and everyone takes turns to burn paper and take turns to squint, after all, Zhang Luo's funeral is very busy, and it is not realistic not to sleep.

In the evening, when it was my turn to sleep, I burned a few stacks of paper for my third uncle, and when I was done, I leaned back in my chair and fell asleep.

After sleeping for a while, I suddenly felt a heat in my arms, and suddenly woke up, and when I opened my eyes, I found that I was not in the mourning hall at all.

I remember that I was burning paper in the mourning hall, how did I get to this wilderness now?

Take a closer look, damn me, isn't this place Liu Qian'er's grave?

Before I could figure out what was going on, I heard a voice next to me, "Gu Zhou, don't speak." ”

"Who?" I was so frightened that I exclaimed, in the middle of the night, someone was talking, most of them were not serious.

"It's me, your master told me to resist you here at twelve o'clock."

When I heard this voice, it was a little familiar, and after a while, I suddenly remembered, isn't this Li Guohua's voice?

"Li Guohua?" I asked.

I couldn't see him in the dark, but the sound should be right next to me.

"Well, it's me, I'm the one who brought you here." Li Guohua said.

I said, how do you know my master?

Li Guohua said that in the afternoon, he hurried to Gu Laosan's house to help, but met an old Taoist priest halfway through.

He said that this old Taoist priest claimed to be my master, and said that he must take me to Liu Qian'er's grave at twelve o'clock.

I asked, "Didn't he say anything else to you?" ”

Li Guohua said: "No, he only said that I will stay here with you until dawn, and no matter what you hear, don't look at Liu Qian'er's grave." ”

Master, what are you doing here? My mind was full of question marks.

He asked me to bury the gossip mirror in Liu Qian'er's grave, but the gossip mirror was broken, could it still be useful?

Moreover, Li Guohua is a well-known fool in the village, he usually only giggles when he sees people, and the older generation of people say that this kind of person is a village guard.

But he didn't behave like a fool at all tonight.

While thinking about it, Li Guohua said again: "Gu Zhou, I am next to you, and the place where we are staying now is a big rock, so as long as you don't stand up, it will be fine." ”

I said, what the hell is Master going to do?

Li Guohua said: "I don't know, anyway, your master said that you must stay here for one night tonight, don't worry, I will always accompany you." ”

"Okay!" I said helplessly, I really don't know what medicine is sold in Master's gourd.

I looked at my phone, it was only one o'clock in the middle of the night, and I had to stay up slowly.

Li Guohua and I were silent against the stone, and after a while, I faintly heard a voice.

It sounded like someone was digging the soil, and I was shocked, could it be that someone came to steal Liu Qian'er's body?

Wouldn't the gossip mirror I buried be even more useless?

But thinking of Li Guohua's words, I didn't dare to stand up and look, so I could only lean against the stone and didn't dare to come out.

The sound of digging became more and more frequent, and I whispered to Li Guohua, and he said that he also heard it.

After a while, the sound of digging was gone, but it was transformed into the sound of rubbing again, a bit like the sound of opening a coffin.

Now I'm even more convinced that someone is moving Liu Qian'er's body, but who could it be?

Liu Qian'er was dressed in red before she died, and she was so angry that ordinary people didn't dare to approach her grave.

Could it be my uncle?

I guessed in my heart for a while, anyway, this thing is really outrageous.

It wasn't until five o'clock in the morning that the sky revealed the white of the fish's belly, and those voices slowly disappeared, at this time Li Guohua said: "Gu Zhou, you go to sleep!" I'll take you back. ”

I just wanted to say what do I sleep on? only to find that his eyelids sank, and the whole person was unconscious.

I was awakened by the sound of thunder, and when I opened my eyes, I found myself still lying in my chair.

"Dreaming again?" I muttered to myself, but I've only experienced these things.

I got up and went outside to find Li Guohua, this stupid big man smirked at me, I said, "Brother Hua, where did you go last night?" ”

Li Guohua slurred his words and said, "I...... I'll just ...... I've been out there. ”

Several uncles who were with him also said that Li Guohua had been sitting on the bench and napping.

I frowned, this is really strange, could it be that it wasn't Li Guohua last night?
