The great kindness of the ghost uncle
He was a withered old man, dressed in tatters, carrying an old-fashioned oil lamp from the past, shuttling through the alleys every night, alone and looking extremely lonely.
He would sometimes chat with the old men who were wandering on the streets, listen to them tell about the ups and downs of their youth, the unfilial piety of their children when they were old, and the vicissitudes of life written on the faces of the old people, and he would carry a lamp to guide those old people to where they should go. The next day, they would sleep peacefully on the streets, never waking up.
Late at night, the uncle walked in an alley with a lamp, tireless, the sparse light was what he longed for but could not reach, but there were bursts of cries and scolding from the depths of the alley. The uncle sighed and staggered into the depths.
"The old immortal, get out, our family doesn't raise idle food." The woman's loud voice can be heard from afar. "Let's go, you can take care of your home if you have a dog, raise you, and spend money to send you to the end of a hundred years." The man also scolded and pushed an old man.
"Oh my God, how could I raise such a rebel, is it that I have done all the bad things in my previous life, and I will be homeless in this life." The old man sat on the ground with a child in his arms, helplessly calling the sky not working, calling the ground should not be, and the child in his arms cried and called grandpa, wiping the tears on the old man's face with his little hands.
"Roll !! with this little bunny" The man viciously gave an ultimatum, "If you don't leave, I'll kill you." The man gestured and stretched out his hand to strike.
"You don't have to raise me, but this is your eldest brother's child, you and Chunhua don't have a son, and they are both bloodline, so you can adopt it." The old man tugged at the man's trouser leg and pleaded.
The woman's face was gloomy, "Won't my spring flowers give birth?" If you want me to raise the flesh and blood of your eldest son who died early, bah, I'm still too unlucky. "Chunhua's mouth is unforgiving, swallowing melon seeds, spitting all the shells on the old man's body, and even pouring the footwashing water on the old man's head in anger." Twenty percent, we closed the door and went to sleep. ”
"Okay, daughter-in-law." Ercheng agreed in a flattering manner, and dragged the old man out of the door a few meters away.
After closing the door, the old man held the child and froze on the ground.
The old man had two sons, the eldest son entered the army, met a female soldier, married her, gave birth to a child, and soon went to the front, and soon the eldest son died, and the child was only a little more than a year old at that time, and then the eldest daughter-in-law was too sad to follow, leaving a three-year-old child, entrusted to the old man. The second son is in business, and people who run business are a little cunning, and if they are used in business, their profits may be doubled, and if they are used in family affection, then they will not be able to start a family. Chunhua is the second daughter-in-law, also in business, with a hot temper, and the second son is afraid of the inside, so he basically obeys his daughter-in-law in everything, they have a daughter, and they have not been allowed to have children since then.
The uncle had been watching quietly not far away, and when he walked in front of the old man, the old man looked up, "Were you also kicked out?" ”
The uncle nodded, "Don't worry, unfilial sons and daughters will always get retribution." ”
"No, no, no, I'm just such a son, I don't want anything to happen to him, I can't break the roots, alas!" The old man shook his head.
The uncle pointed to the child in the old man's arms, "Isn't he the root of your family?" This child will be rich and prosperous in the future, and he will have a full house of children and grandchildren. ”
The old man looked at the old man again, and a light flashed in his eyes, and then dimmed again. "You look at faces, don't you? Am I going to die soon? ”
Uncle nodded.
"Then what should this child do, even if he will have a good life in the future, but he is so young, who will raise him?" The old man held his head and cried, and the child pulled the old man's hand away.
"Grandpa, don't cry, you still have me." The child's big eyes were also a little moist, but he couldn't cry, he was afraid that his grandfather wouldn't want him.
The uncle looked at the child carefully and asked, "Child, what's your name?" ”
"My name is Changge." The child is a little cramped.
"When Changge was born, his father was singing military songs, so he named it Changge." The old man said with tears in his eyes.
"Let this kid go with me, I'll raise him, but he has to promise me one condition." Uncle said solemnly.
The old man was a little incredulous, after all, the strange old man with the lantern in front of him looked older than him, and he was not human yet, so he was a little uneasy.
"You don't believe me, I understand this, but you have no other choice at the moment, don't worry, I will take care of the child." Uncle said with a smile.
The old man hesitated again and again and decided to believe the uncle. "What conditions were you talking about before?"
"After a hundred years of long songs, replace me with a lantern."
"Then you have to ask the child if he wants to go with you."
"Son, would you like to be an upright man with me? Let grandpa no longer suffer. ”
Changge looked at his grandfather, and he nodded tearfully.
"That's good, you can spend more time with your grandfather these days, and you don't have to worry about food and clothing. I'm going to do something, you help grandpa go to an abandoned house on the other side of the alley to rest first, good! The uncle looked at the child lovingly, touched Changge's head with his hand, and a streamer abruptly went to the child's eyebrows.
"What are you?" The old man was a little dissatisfied.
"This is the first gift to Changge, Hui Zhi Ming, ghosts don't dare to get close." When he said this, the uncle was gone. The old man hurriedly asked the child to kowtow and thank him.
The uncle entered Ercheng's house, and they were already asleep. The uncle had to enter their sleep again, and took the handle of the lantern and knocked Ercheng and his daughter-in-law on the forehead, "A stick is for you to remember that filial piety to your parents is a matter of course." The second stick is to teach you that you must not forget the grace of nurturing. The third stick, disrespect, money and wealth, no children and no daughters to send the end cold. "They each knocked three sticks, they got into bed together, and their foreheads were swollen, and the person who beat them in the dream never saw clearly, and they were quite responsible at first, but then they didn't take it seriously.
Not long after, Changge's grandfather died of cold, and the uncle guided him to reincarnate, "In the next life, you will live well, and I also hope that you will remember kindness." "Uncle
Touching the old man's eyebrows with his thumb, he spoke carefully.
In the days that followed, the uncle taught Changge to be literate and a man.
Time passed day by day, Changge grew up, and the uncle was still like that, and it didn't change at all.
"Grandpa, are you a ghost?" Changge had already guessed it, he was still young at that time and didn't understand, but now after reading many books, he knows what kind of existence it is.
"I'm a ghost." Uncle said very frankly.
"Books say ghosts can hurt people." No wonder the uncle hid in the house during the day, came out at night to teach him things, and let him bask in the sun more during the day, but he never saw the uncle hurt anyone.
"Demons are also divided into good and evil."
"Got it."
……
One day, Changge went to the street to buy daily necessities, and met a priest, who passed by Changge, and after a while, followed Changge's footsteps, "Childe, please stay." ”
"What?" Changge wondered.
"There is yin qi in Childe's body, although it is extremely light, but after a long time, I am afraid it will endanger Childe's luck." The Taoist priest said solemnly.
"You're thinking too much." Although Changge is simple, it is not stupid, and the book says that Taoist priests are good at catching ghosts.
Changge turned around and left, and the Taoist priest had no choice but to follow.
After Changge arrived home, as soon as he put down his things, the Taoist priest followed up the house, picked up the peachwood sword and stabbed it directly at the ghost uncle, Changge saw it and didn't think about it to block the sword.
"Changge, go away."
The uncle hurriedly pushed Changge away, and the peachwood sword stabbed the uncle's shoulder, and a loud sound sounded, and black smoke kept coming out, "Grandpa, are you okay?" Changge anxiously ran to the uncle's side, "Why did you push me away?" ”
"Silly boy, it hurts if you stab you." Uncle said with a smile.
"Ghost thing, it looks like you've been practicing the Tao for at least two hundred years, don't you go to reincarnation, what are you doing in the world?" The Taoist elder shouted.
"Stinky Taoist, if you hurt my grandfather today, I will fight with you." Changge fought with the Taoist priest with red eyes.
The Taoist priest didn't take Changge in his eyes, rushed up and threw a rune paper at the ghost uncle, looking at Changge and wanting to rush up to block it for himself, the uncle was anxious for a while, it was a fire talisman, and it would burn when he touched it. He hurriedly cast a gust of wind, temporarily putting Changge in a hallucination, and stretched out his hand to deflect the rune paper, but the rune paper stuck to his body, and as soon as his hand touched the rune, it automatically ignited.
The Taoist chief walked up to Changge and pasted a talisman.
"My grandfather is a good ghost, don't hurt him, if he hadn't taken me in, I would have starved to death on the streets with my grandfather, and he is my second relative." As soon as Changge came out of the hallucination, he immediately pleaded for mercy.
"No matter whether it is a good ghost or an evil ghost, you must be reincarnated and follow the laws of heaven and earth." The Taoist chief was a little moved, but he still firmly reasoned.
"Changge, this is grandpa's life, I calculated it some time ago, you have to live well. Dao Chief, leave me two hundred years of Taoism to that child, so that he can become an earth immortal in a hundred years and continue to do justice for me. "Uncle's body has been burned half off.
The Dao Leader nodded, and the peachwood sword was raised to the center of the uncle's eyebrows, and a white light appeared on the sword, and the Dao Leader punched it into Changge's body.
……
After that incident, Changge was alone, working hard to gain fame, ten years of hard study, won the first champion, gongs and drums were noisy, the title of the gold list, the champion mansion was like a city, it was not lively, the scene was grand, the crowd was crowded, it was really a high eyebrow, and the ancestors were glorious.

Ten years of cold windows no one asked, and in one fell swoop became famous all over the world.
Changge rode a high-headed horse, standing in the crowd, like a bright pearl, dazzling and shining,
At this moment, the long song was full of joy and sorrow, excited, with tears in his eyes, his head held high, he looked up at the sky, and muttered to himself, two grandfathers, have you seen it in the sky! Changge has come out, it has been done, Changge has won glory for you, Changge wants to offer tablets for you, build an ancestral hall,
A few years later
