Volume 2, The Spinning Top in a Dream Chapter 7, The Surprise of the Peaks and Loops

This is the life of ordinary people.

Able to do food and clothing without worry.

Have a house that shelters from the elements.

Between family members, they often mix a few words for daily trivial matters.

Occasionally, for hearsay rumors, get a laugh or get a warning in secret.

In the limited living space, a dream that is known to be impossible, but very pleasant, is sketched to pass the loneliness of 365 days a year.

The so-called life is in this alternation of false and true, true and false, approaching death insipidly.

Tian Xiu's life is different, she has been burdened with a responsibility since the day she can remember.

She is very unlucky, at a young age, she has to bear the pressure of life for her parents, and she is lucky to be able to taste all the flavors of life in advance at a weak age.

Her father's decision made her think about an effective way to crack it under the haze of fear.

She first thought of calling the police and asking the police at the police station to stop the impending killing. Then he subconsciously shook his head and gave a negative answer.

The scene between her father and Huang Chunlan in the grove has been engraved in her bones, and it was because of her impulsiveness that the unknown disaster that would happen next.

Can't go to the police anymore.

The public security can manage it for a while, but it can't manage it for a lifetime. People can't watch their fathers 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

From her father's bloodshot eyes, she had already seen the stubbornness of not giving up until she reached her goal.

Since there is no way to stop it, you can only face it head-on.

Tian Xiu didn't know how to face what was going to happen. With his father's physical strength, it is not a problem to kill the Yellow Widow and his son.

After the murder, my father must have been sentenced to death by the court, and she would have to collect my father's body at that time.

Tian Xiu's tears rolled down with helpless thoughts.

Why is my life so miserable!

This is Tian Xiu's frequent secret complaint after her mother's death. Every time she complains, she will feel that life is worse than death, and she really wants to die.

As soon as you close your eyes, you will be free of all the troubles in the world, how good it would be.

She also knew that it was just a wonderful, impossible wish of hers. She can't let go of this family, her younger siblings need her care, and the father she loves and hates.

This is the nature of women, and they have struggled with pain countless times in their hearts, and finally they are bound by unwarranted concerns and are unable to walk.

Tian Xiu didn't understand his father's stubbornness, so he could only try his best to meet his father's requirements when he was still free.

She stuffed the rice in the pot and told Tian Li to take care of the rice pot and be careful not to burn it.

She trotted all the way, buying back paper, incense, and candles.

When she returned, she put two buckets in front of her brother's spirit, spread a piece of yellow paper on them, took a small rice bowl, filled it with rice, lit three sticks of incense, put them on the rice, and lit a candle.

Everything was arranged, and she stood in front of her brother's spirit, feeling that she should say something.

She is an incompetent older sister.

The younger brother is really pitiful, and he has survived fourteen years in the envy and jealousy of his sisters.

What a long time it has been.

In front of Tian Xiu's eyes, after the birth of his younger brother, he was squeezed out by the sisters. At that time, the two sisters were so at ease, but now that they think about it, their younger brother is so innocent.

It was not his fault that he came to this family, he had no choice. It was his misfortune to suffer all kinds of injustices.

"Why am I such a bastard?" Tian Xiu slapped himself in the face and slapped himself in the mouth, and tears rolled down with it.

This is Tian Xiu's sincere repentance, regretting that he should not have misunderstood his father's love for his younger brother in the first place.

Now, she figured it out, but unfortunately it didn't help.

"Hi-" Tian Xiu sighed and smelled the smell of pasty pot.

It must have been Tian Li who forgot to pad the stove ring, and the rice was burned.

Tian Xiu turned around and ran out.

In a trance, she heard the sound of a "creaking" bed board shaking from the lower room.

She didn't care, she was thinking about the rice pot on the fire.

"Poofโ€”"

There was another sound from the lower room, and the sound was clearly discernible as something fell and hit the ground.

Tian Xiu stopped, thinking that his father's makeshift spiritual bed might not be able to bear his brother's weight and was crushed to the shelf, which was the sound of his brother's body falling to the ground.

Tian Xiu slowly turned his head and saw that the spiritual bed was placed there intact, and the quilt that wrapped his younger brother really fell to the ground.

"What can I do?" Tian Xiu sighed.

The father carried the younger brother back and placed him on the funeral bed, and specially instructed her, "Just leave it like this, and don't open it." โ€

Tian Li smelled the smell of the paste pot. She ran into the kitchen, brought the rice pot to the sink, turned on the faucet, poured cold water on the rice pot, and physically cooled the paste.

"You're here to help me." Tian Xiu didn't have the heart to accuse Tian Li of being careless and burned a pot of rice that was served well, she needed a helper now.

Tian Li didn't hear the words of the eldest sister, she turned off the faucet, opened the lid of the pot, sniffed it vigorously and said, "It's okay, it's not mushy." โ€

"You come out for me!" Tian Xiu was unhappy.

When has this been, Tian Li is still so heartless.

Tian Li looked inexplicable, walked out reluctantly, and asked, "What's wrong?" โ€

"Follow me." Tian Xiu dropped a sentence and walked into the lower room.

Tian Li followed up, saw the quilt that fell to the ground, and asked Tian Xiu, "What are you doing?" โ€

Tian Xiu ignored Tian Li, she walked to the quilt, bent down and picked up the rope, it was really heavy.

Seeing Tian Li's wooden stake like a pestle there, Tian Xiu was unhappy. "What are you doing in a daze, come and help."

Tian Li walked over and picked up the other end of the rope, and the two sisters used their strength to lift Xiao Hei's body and put it on the funeral bed.

Maybe it's because the two sisters don't have enough strength, maybe it's the dead people, and their bodies are stiff and heavy. The two sisters used their strength to feed, but they couldn't pick up Xiao Hei's body.

"I don't believe it." Tian Li let go of her hand, spit into her palm and said, "Listen to me shouting, one, two, three." โ€

Tian Xiu also followed Tian Li's example and spit on the palm of his hand, and the two no longer carried the rope this time, but bent down, each holding one head, to carry his younger brother to the table.

Maybe Tian Li used too much force and ran out of strength in a few seconds, or maybe she was playing tricks and letting go of her hand when she felt that she couldn't do it.

Tian Xiu picked up Xiao Hei here, he had already straightened his waist, and he was about to put Xiao Hei on the spiritual bed, Tian Li suddenly threw away Xiao Hei, and the entire quilt fell off again, and fell to the ground with a "bang".

Before Tian Xiu complained that Tian Li didn't play tricks, Tian Li also bent down and wanted to lift Xiao Hei again.

Just when Tian Li's hand just touched the quilt roll, she said "Mom", turned around and ran.

Tian Li ran out of the house, and when she turned around, she saw Tian Xiu still standing there stupidly, and whispered, "Sister, Xiao Hei is moving." โ€

Tian Xiu suddenly had goosebumps.

"Don't talk nonsense, let Dad see it, I can't kill you." Tian Xiu bent down again, thinking that Tian Li could turn back and help her carry Xiao Hei to the spiritual bed again.

It was only a few seconds before and after, and Tian Xiu's hand hadn't touched the quilt yet, she felt that the quilt was really moving, and the more she moved, the faster it moved.

Before Tian Xiu could react, more than a dozen ropes tied to the quilt suddenly broke with a "bang".

The instinct to survive prompted Tian Xiu to jump over the quilt all of a sudden, rush out of the house, and hit Tian Li who was standing at the door with a big heel, and she also fell out.

The two sisters got up from the ground, ignoring the pain, preparing to run away first, and couldn't help but look down into the house.

I saw that the quilt was rolled up on the ground and turned a few times, and the whole quilt was thrown off, and the little black head wrapped in gauze was exposed from it, and he exhaled a long breath and said, "But it suffocates me." โ€

Under the influence of alcohol, Tian Laofu was still half-asleep and half-awake.

Hearing that Xiao Hei was alive again, he was stunned and said, "How is it possible." โ€

"Really!" Tian Li came out from behind Tian Xiu, and ran to the kang with a loud voice and said, "I'm scared to death." โ€

Tian Laofu shook his head vigorously to confirm that he was not dreaming, and hurriedly got off the ground.

As soon as his feet touched the ground, he felt his legs go limp, and his whole body collapsed on the ground at once.

Tian Xiu used all his strength, picked up his father, and shouted to Tian Li, who was cowering on the kang, "Come and help me." โ€

The two sisters set up Tian Laofu, went out of the house, and came to the door of the lower house.

Tian Laofu shook off the hands of his two daughters, poked his head in, and saw Tian Xiaohe's head wrapped in gauze, sitting cross-legged on the unfolded quilt, with a pair of unfamiliar eyes, looking around.

Tian Laofu rushed in, sat down beside Xiao Hei, shed tears and said, "Son, this is not true, right?" โ€

Xiao Hei looked Tian Laofu up and down.

He flashed his eyes and asked Tian Laofu, "What are you crying about?" โ€

What a familiar voice, this person is Xiao Hei.

The two Tian Xiu sisters recognized their younger brother's voice clearly, and they also shed tears, and ran in to pull Xiao Hei up. Tian Xiaohei shook them off and said dissatisfiedly: "What are you two going to do?" โ€

Tian Laofu stopped his tears, wiped his hand on his face, and said to Xiao Hei, "Do you still know who you are?" โ€

That's the way to go.

Tian Laofu grew up in the countryside, and he heard from his elders that there was a saying about borrowing corpses to return souls and deceiving corpses.

The so-called resurrection of the corpse is about someone's yang life before it comes to an end, and he was taken away by mistake. After being identified, Hades allowed him to return to the Yang Realm. If his body no longer exists, he can borrow someone else's body and return to the yang world.

As for the corpse, it sounds a little scary.

It is said that it is some kind of creature with a certain amount of mana, wandering between the yin and yang realms, picking on the corpses of people shortly after death, and making monsters.

The corpse has no soul, and the living beings use the spirit of the cat to sneak into it and resurrect in the yang world.

Its power is so great that wherever his hand can touch, it is harmed. Those who are caught by him will surely die, and the poultry and beasts will die at the slightest touch, and even the great trees with deep roots and thick leaves, after he touch, will soon become rotten and yellow.

Xiao Hei flickered his eyes and looked at Tian Laofu, and his eyes revealed cunning.

The bottle of liquor that Tian Laofu drank instantly turned into sweat and bubbled out along his forehead.

He glanced at the knife hidden in the corner, and estimated the time it would take to jump up and work on it.

This is not my son, it must be the legendary corpse.

Tian Laofu slowly moved his body, beware of being caught by the uninvited guest in front of him, and let him die instantly.

The Tian Xiu sisters had never heard of the corpse, but when they saw that their father suddenly became nervous, they had a premonition that something was not going well, and they were also ready to respond.

"My name is Tian Yingjun, and my nickname is Xiao Hei." Xiao Hei endorsed and said his name, and Tian Laofu's nervous state of mind suddenly relaxed.

"What's wrong with you?" Tian Laofu asked again.

"I'm hungry." He licked his chapped lips and said, "I haven't eaten or drunk for days." โ€

"My son." Tian Laofu took Xiao Hei into his arms and cried loudly.

This is his son, it has been three days since he was injured, he has not eaten water, can he not be hungry.

Tian Laofu cried for a while, picked up Xiao Hei and walked into the house.

As he walked, he said to his two daughters, "Your little brother is hungry, get him food quickly." โ€

Tian Laofu grabbed his son's hand tightly, as if as soon as he let go, his son would fly away.

Tian Xiu and Tian Li stood there stupidly, not believing that the dead could be resurrected anyway.

Hearing their father's instructions, the two of them hurriedly got up, first put the dining table on the kang, and then served a large plate of pig's head meat and a pot of cabbage stewed potatoes.

This is a casual meal for a family of six, and after Tian Laofu eats this meal, he is about to avenge his son.

Xiao Hei walked into the house and looked around without hesitation.

A plate of fire kang, there is a kang cabinet at the tip of the kang, on which are neatly stacked with bedding. Mirrors and picture frames hang on the facing wall, and below is a row of chests.

There was a window on the north side of the house, and a row of hooks on the wall hung a few school bags and a few clothes.

Adjacent to the entrance door, there is also a door.

Xiao Hei walked over and looked in through the door and window, this was a small room, with a small kang spread horizontally, and all kinds of sundries were piled up on the kang.

"Son, come here." Tian Laofu brought himself a bag of old dry bubbles, and his eyes never left Xiao Hei.

Xiao Hei came over in response, Tian Laofu lit the old dry bubble first, took a few sips, and asked, "Do you know what's going on?" โ€

"I'm hungry." Xiao Hei saw the pig's head meat and potato stewed cabbage on the small kang table, and he couldn't stop swallowing.

"Serve your brother dinner." Tian Laofu gave an order, Tian Xiu came in with a large bowl, and Tian Li followed closely and brought in the rice pot.

Tian Xiu filled a bowl of rice, Xiao Hei came to the dining table, picked up chopsticks, first sandwiched a piece of pig's head meat, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed. took the rice handed over by Tian Xiu and devoured it.

A family of three watched Xiao Hei eat in a daze.

If there is no one next to Xiao Hei, he will eat and drink. It didn't take long for me to eat up a big bowl of rice.

He didn't need others to serve him rice, he brought the rice pot, poured the two large plates of dishes on the dining table into the pot, stirred them with chopsticks, and began to sweep the clouds.

The meal of a family of three was eaten by Xiao Hei alone.

He sat on the edge of the kang, pushed the empty pot out, chewed the last bite of rice in his mouth, supported his hands on the kang, and his stomach was obviously bulging out of a bag.

"Have you eaten enough?" Tian Laofu sat beside him and asked in a low voice.

"Hungry." Tian Laoba hiccuped, and his eyes inadvertently swept towards the frame on the wall.

Ignoring the daze of his two sisters standing by the kang, he jumped up suddenly, came to the cabinet, and stared at a photo in the frame.

It was a black and white photo of a family of three when Tian Laofu and Wu Yufen got married and gave birth to their eldest daughter Tian Xiu.

Xiao Hei looked at Wu Yufang in the photo and was stunned, looking at it, his face showed a disdainful smile. I thought to myself: I really didn't expect that I was deceived by this yaksha.

Wu Yufen's voice came from his ears: Brother Xiaohei, I didn't lie to you, this is where you end.

Wu Yufen's voice echoed in the air.

Xiao Hei looked back, Tian Laofu and his two daughters stared blankly at the empty bowls and pots on the dinner table, and turned their surprised eyes on him.
