Chapter Seventy-Three: The Yang Family Tree
"yes!" Shi Qi nodded and said, "At least there are six or seven groups!" ”
"Go out and have a look!" I walked briskly out of the woods, looked around the neighborhood, and found three or four sets of incense sticks on the ground, in addition to the high incense I was standing on.
No wonder Shi Qi couldn't find the direction, it turned out that someone had moved near us, fortunately, my body was relatively secretive at the time, otherwise, that person would have been able to attack me.
I said with a gloomy face: "Go back first, and then settle accounts with them when I have my hands free." ”
When the three of us rushed back to Shopkeeper Xu's house, it was already dark, and we were busy all night, and the two old men were still eating breakfast there.
The patriarch thief has always been like this, and the life is so bad that people can't comment on it.
You say he's dealing with getting by, right? He has three meals a day, a lot at a time, even if he eats breakfast at ten o'clock in the morning, he has to eat another meal at noon, and the three meals must be worked together.
You say he has a good life, right? It's really not, eating and drinking are very casual, and only when you want to pretend to be forced. If he pays attention to it, the chef of the hotel can make him cry.
No, as soon as I entered the door, I saw him eating white porridge and pickles.
As soon as I sat down on the table, Old Ghost Ye picked up the wine glass: "Dog, don't you have two mouthfuls?" ”
"Here you are...... You come to ...... "Compared with the old thief, I can't stand Ye Lao Ghost, four meals a day, the whole body is uncomfortable if I don't drink, and when I get up in the morning, I can drink four taels with green onion dipping sauce."
Shi Qi saw that I was sitting down, and hurriedly went to help Shopkeeper Xu fill the dishes and chopsticks for me and Ye Huan.
While eating steamed buns, I told the patriarch thief about last night.
The patriarch thief sucked the white porridge and said, "Look, the ghost you put in the forbidden soul bag is still alive?" Don't open the bag, just look through the bag. If I were still alive, I would have a few points in my heart. ”
The patriarch doesn't have the ability to do a lot, but he's well-informed! So far, there is nothing that can stop him.
I threw the Forbidden Soul Bag on the table and poked it twice with my chopsticks: "Are you still alive?" Live to speak. ”
The ghost really said in the forbidden soul bag: "Alive, what does the Great Immortal command?" ”
I immediately looked at the old thief, and the other party smiled: "You ask you, I'll talk about it after asking!" ”
What did the patriarch and thief see? It's just that he doesn't want to say it in front of this ghost.
I asked directly, "Who are you?" Where do you come from? ”
The ghost said, "My name is Yang Wenxiu, and I am from Yangjia Village. ”
My eyes lit up suddenly, all the people in Yangjia Village disappeared back then, and there were no ghosts left, isn't this completely an unsolved case? I didn't expect to run into one here.
I asked quietly, "What happened to your Yangjia Village back then, and where did everyone go?" If you know anything, just go on and don't wait for me to ask. I asked and told you, and the result was different. ”
I said...... I said...... "Yang Wenxiu didn't have much backbone when she looked at it, so she didn't need me to ask and said it herself."
Back then, I was working as a companion for other people in Changchun City, and that day, when I was busy, people from our village came to me and said that my father was seriously ill and was dying, and asked me to hurry back to see him for the last time.
At that time, I didn't think much about it, so I asked my boss for leave and ran home.
Originally, the person who sent me the message was still going back and forth with me, but when he arrived at the entrance of the village, he didn't know where to go. I was in a hurry to go home to see my father, and I didn't bother to go to the man.
Who knows, when I come home, I see my dad weaving baskets at home? This made me so angry that I scolded my mother on the spot, and when I was about to go to the man to settle the account, I couldn't remember who that person was?
My father scolded me for this.
I'm back this time, and it's too late to rush to the city, so I just stay at home.
When I was eating, I learned that whether it was going out to do odd jobs or working outside all the year round, all of them were called back, and the farthest one received the news of an accident at home in the middle of the month, and it took more than ten days to rush back.
Moreover, we returned to the village on the same day.
I also asked an acquaintance who did this, but no one could remember who was the person who called us back at that time?
At that time, we all felt that something was wrong, so we simply found the big fairy in the village and asked him to help with the calculation. As a result, no matter how the big fairy burned incense and kowtowed, he couldn't invite the fairy family to come up.
At this time, all the people in the village were scared, and knelt down together to kowtow to the immortal family.
In the end, Da Xian'er finally invited the immortal family, but the immortal family only said "genealogy" and left.
We also wondered, what's in the genealogy? Let's find the oldest person in the village and invite the family tree out.
I heard this and interrupted the other party: "The Yang family used to be a big family? ”
I don't just ask out of pure curiosity.
Genealogy, not all families have it.
People with genealogies are either ancestors who have been big people. Either the family has a certain scale, and when the family pays more attention to the family inheritance, it will let someone repair the family tree.
Genealogy can be said to be the product of the traditional family patriarchal system, which requires a certain cultural heritage and material foundation. If the family is in the middle of the road, or the family itself does not have the corresponding material and cultural conditions, no one has the ability and energy to write a family tree.
Yang Wen said: "I really don't know this, but I always hear the elders say that our ancestors were prime ministers. After we took root in Yangjia Village, there were not even many people in the village who could read and hyphenate, so who still had the heart to write a genealogy? The genealogy was not written in my grandfather's generation. ”
Yang Wenxiu continued:
We took out the genealogy and flipped it from beginning to end, and we didn't see why.
Later, the person who kept the genealogy mentioned: Doesn't our family still have a genealogy? It's just a dozen pages. Isn't there a few more people up there.
When the old people in the village heard this, they all remembered that there was indeed such a book in the Yang family tree.
When he pulled out the genealogy, we were all dumbfounded.
The genealogy was only twelve pages in all, and there were three people on it, and each of them had portraits.
Isn't the person in the first portrait the one who got us back?
This is, the ancestor has appeared?
At that time, some people said: This is because the ancestors thought that we had not worshiped our ancestors for many years, so we came back to worship our ancestors.
We ignore the three ancestors, and it's not the first year's thing, why did they suddenly get us back at this time?
Some people also said: Could it be that the ancestors, knowing that the war is in chaos now, what big things are going to happen, and calling us all back to avoid trouble?
However, if you think about it carefully, this is not right, Yangjia Village is not in the deep mountains and old forests, if something really happens, where can we avoid trouble?
A group of us discussed for a long time, but we didn't come to any results.
In the end, I had to go home and prepare to stay for a few days to see what happened.
