Volume 1 Career Stories Chapter 2 My Memories (2)

Since scientific methods cannot solve the problem, we can only try other unscientific methods. My grandmother knew a woman in the village who liked to recite sutras and worship gods and Buddhas at home. In fact, I don't have much impression of this woman, and I don't know if she is a so-called goddess, but I only knew about it once or twice in an occasional contact, and I don't have a deep memory. Only this time when she solved my fever was extremely clear, and even unforgettable.

The woman put on her reading glasses, looked at me seriously, and then said a few words to my grandmother. I didn't hear what she said. Then she started to deal with the problem for me. It's hard for me to say how. I just remember that she took something and set it on fire at the time, and then burned it on me.

It's just a little spark, but there is an indescribable severe pain when it falls on the body. Every time it is burned, it is accompanied by a burst of pain that penetrates the soul, and spreads all over the body. I was also a very patient person, and when I went to the hospital for injections, the nurse inserted me in the wrong place, and I could not say a word until half a bottle of potion was injected and even the back of my whole hand was swollen. But for this, Martian is still inexplicably afraid when he thinks about it.

It wasn't until the woman burned me that I was sweating because of the severe pain. But amazingly, my body was really good after that, and my fever completely subsided. After that time, I avoided things like that. Because I don't want to go through the same discomfort a second time. But then it happened, and I was arrested by my family again to see this woman, but this time fortunately this time it was not as painful as last time.

The village where I live is a big mountain behind it. There are many ancestral graves on the mountain, not only from our village, but also from outside the village. Therefore, every Qingming Festival, there will always be a lot of strangers in the village, they are in groups of three or five, holding ingots candles and hoes on the mountain.

Sometimes in the summer, when you approach the mountain path, you can faintly see a faint blue firelight, which is a little dreamy and a little terrifying. We knew it was a ghost fire, and we all thought there were ghosts in the mountains. Now that I think about it, it's probably because there are too many mountain graves on the mountain.

I still remember when we went up to the mountains during the day to play. Halfway down the path, I saw a nice view of the fish pond in the distance, so I stopped by the side of the road to take a photo. However, at this moment, I suddenly felt that something was wrong, and looked down to see that there was a grave on the slope under the path under my feet. This is a bit unexpected, because after so many years, it is basically known that most people's mountain graves have to go up a little bit, at least not so close to the foot of the mountain. This incident makes me have a big shadow, but I can only think that there is no blame, just the unintentional mistake of a child, I hope I don't blame it.

When I was about to be frightened, my friend pointed to the path up the mountain and asked, "Do you know that there is a fish pond on the mountain?" I replied, "Yes." He asked again in a calm tone, "Do you know that there are female ghosts in the fish pond on the mountain?" "I thought to myself that this kid was teasing me, because this kid has been cheating me since I was a child, but I don't know why I still believe it subconsciously.
