Chapter 59: Back to Grandpa's Hometown
"Hey, Ah Li! Are you listening? Ah Li...... "Brother Lesheng is still talking on the other end of the phone, but I can't control my emotions.
In the dream that day, grandpa's home shook the mountains, it turned out that it was not groundless, it was an omen!
"Why am I so stupid, why am I so stupid?" I held my head and muttered to myself.
After a brief period of amnesia, I decided that I wanted to go back to my grandfather's hometown, not until the Chinese New Year, but right now.
Picking up the phone from the bed, "Brother Lesheng, I'll go back now, go back to my hometown!" ”
"Ah Li, don't panic! I know you're having a hard time right now, so I'm going to borrow a car to pick you up right now and we'll go back together! You pack your things now, I'm almost there to call you! ”
"Brother Lesheng, I may have to bring a friend, I don't know if it's convenient for you over there?"
"It's all this time, what are you telling me about?"
I panicked not because my grandfather's tomb had been moved, but because my grandfather's spirit was still in this world, and he was the one who dragged my dreams that day, even if his soul was not liberated now, he was still thinking about me.
Or it will be really dangerous to go back to my hometown this time, but for the sake of my grandfather, I must go back too!
hung up Brother Le Sheng's phone and called directly to the landline of the noodle restaurant.
"Hello? The shop has recently been on vacation and can't accept ......"
"It's me, Qiao Li! Pack up your things and go back to my hometown with me...... "My voice is very flat, and it is the emotion that I try to suppress.
"Oh...... Oh......" Ronner on the other end of the line seemed to be frightened by my emotion, and he hung up after two "oh" sounds.
I simply packed a few changes of clothes, took my little milk cat and walked to the school gate.
"Qiao Li, what's wrong?" Ronna was carrying a backpack on his back, which was neat and tidy, and when he saw me, he asked me.
"My grandfather's grave has been moved!"
A car drove over in the distance, and in the driver's seat, Brother Le Sheng hurriedly got out of the car and ran towards us.
"Didn't you wait for me to call? Why did you come down and wait yourself? How cold it is! ”
Brother Le Sheng helped me tighten my unbuttoned coat, and took off his scarf and wrapped it around my neck.
"This is ...... Is your boyfriend? ”
At this time, Brother Le Sheng realized that there was a man standing not far from me.
"Brother Lesheng, is it? Hello, my name is Ronna, and I'm Qiao Li's friend! It's not your boyfriend, it's a good friend! ”
"Okay, don't talk about it, get in the car and talk about it, it's too cold!"
A group of three people got into the car and was speechless all the way. Brother Le Sheng has always wanted to say something to me, but now I am a little anxious in my heart, I don't want to speak, and I don't want to listen to Brother Le Sheng.
I sat in the passenger seat, hoping that Brother Lesheng's car could drive faster.
"It's snowing?" Brother Le Sheng turned on the windshield wipers and swept the snow falling from the windshield. "Ah Li, don't be too anxious, it's snowing, and the car can't drive too fast for the safety of our lives!"
"Can you get there before dark?"
"It won't take the evening, but it will be there in the afternoon, and it's about four hours!"
The anxiety in my heart eased a little, I haven't been back for many years, and I don't know what my hometown is like now!
"Qiao Li, you don't think it's ......" Ronna, who was sitting in the back row, finally couldn't hold back and asked me, but he didn't finish his words, and shut up through a look I gave in the rearview mirror.
It's just that, through the rearview mirror, I also saw a person, Sister Xiaoqin, sitting next to Ronna.
"Brother Lesheng, is your air conditioner turned on too low? Why do I feel cold? Ronna couldn't see it, but he could feel it, only this time his sense of smell seemed to be out of order!
"I've driven to 28 degrees, I'm feeling hot, do you have a cold?"
"It's true that I've had a cold, and my nose has been a little out of breath lately!"
No way? He caught a cold at such a critical moment? If you don't have a sense of smell, what else can you do when you go back to my hometown with me? Shall I give him unlimited bloodletting?
"By the way, Brother Le Sheng, how has Sister Xiaoqin been recently? I haven't seen him for so long, and I don't know how he's doing now? When I left the village, I remembered that she and Brother Hong Wu were already married, and it had been three years, did they have children? ”
Brother Le Sheng was obviously stunned for a moment before replying, "Xiaoqin, he ...... Gone last month! ”
Of course, I know that Sister Xiaoqin is dead, but what I want to know is how she died?
"Gone? How can it be? I paused, and then glanced at Sister Xiaoqin in the rearview mirror, "How did you go?" I asked, feigning surprise.
"The body was found in the back mountain, when she was found, there was a flower snake wrapped around her body, as thick as the mouth of the bowl, I heard my dad say, the villagers who saw it at that time were frightened!"
"Snakes?" I glanced at Sister Xiaoqin in the rearview mirror again.
Sister Xiaoqin nodded and did not speak. At this time, I can also feel the cold air emanating from Sister Xiaoqin's body. The body couldn't help but shiver.
"Ah Li, why do you have a cold too?"
With a gust of wind, Sister Xiaoqin disappeared in the back seat.
I knew that Sister Xiaoqin was afraid that her yin qi would hurt me, so she left.
"No, Brother Lesheng, I remember that we haven't seen a snake like that in our village, how could Sister Xiaoqin be bitten to death by a snake?" Sister Xiaoqin didn't seem to want to tell me, so I could only take Brother Lesheng's words.
"Alas...... Actually, I don't know if it's true or not, but Hong Wu told me about it! Hongwu and Xiaoqin have been fine for just one year of marriage, but after turning the year, Xiaoqin always said that a flower snake appeared in her dream, saying that she wanted to become an immortal, and let Xiaoqin stand in the hall to be her own horse fairy! You said that our village belongs to the junction of the north and the south, and I have also heard of the horse fairy, isn't that only in the north? ”
"And then?" I felt that Brother Le Sheng's topic was a little off, so I opened my mouth to remind him.
"Xiaoqin also said that the snake has become a man, and he wants to double cultivate with him, do you understand? Xiaoqin really couldn't stand the torture, so she really set up a hall at home, went to worship the flower snake, and finally became a goddess to see things for the people in the village! ”
At this point, Brother Le Sheng doesn't seem to be able to say anything about the follow-up, because what he knows is also heard, but fortunately, it is a first-hand resource.
In the afternoon we finally arrived in the village.
"Why don't you take your friend to live at my house, we have a vacant room in our house, and let Ronna share a room with me when the time comes!" Brother Lesheng looked at me and still looked at me with a worried expression.
Ronna and I were already standing in front of my grandfather's house, "No need, Brother Lesheng, I'll treat you to a big dinner when I go back, I've really worked hard for you today!" ”
"Don't go up the mountain by yourself, call me if you want to go up the mountain, I'll find a few people to accompany you, Xiaoqin's incident hasn't been long yet, don't be in danger!"
