Chapter 22: Getting Worse
[The first ray of sunshine of the new year is the warmest, and the first blessing of the new year is the most effective. Lao Yu wishes all friends a happy and healthy new year!]
Grandpa is also a little excited, and when he eats, he always talks about who in the village has picked up something from Bajiao Mountain today. I could tell from the look on his face that he really wanted to go.
"Uncle, it's illegal for people in the village to do this. Since it is an unearthed cultural relic, it is all national. It is illegal for any individual to take possession. In the future, if the state cultural relics department knew about it, it would ask them to hand it over to the public. "Mr. Lin understands the policy in this regard.
"Ah, the ownerless things that I picked up will also be returned to the public? Bajiao Mountain, which is the tomb of our ancestors in Bajiao Village. The contents of the grave are also from our Octagon village. Could it be that we people in Bajiao Village can't inherit the things of our ancestors?" Since the tombs on the Bajiao Mountain belong to the ancestors, the contents of these tombs should also be owned by the people of Bajiao Village. Isn't it normal for descendants to take the things of their ancestors?
This time, Mr. Lin was a little confused: "Then I can't figure it out." ”
"Grandpa, that thing isn't clean. If you pick something like this back, something will happen. I said.
"Not clean?" Grandpa asked in surprise, he knew that I was different from ordinary people. My words discouraged Grandpa's original plan.
I know the reason why Grandpa wants to go to Bajiao Mountain to hunt for treasures, he hopes to be able to pick up a few valuable things, and have the opportunity to buy them in the future, and the money earned can renovate the house. Although our house is already a brick house, the mainstream building in the village is now a building. Our house is a bit small in the village.
The house is the most important property for people in the countryside, and some people go to Guangdong to work for the sole purpose of renovating their family's house.
I also turned the family into a building so that my grandfather could live in a beautiful house during his lifetime.
Our thoughts are a little difficult for Mr. Lin to understand. As a city dweller, it was difficult for her to understand the thoughts of people in the countryside.
After eating, my grandfather asked me with a serious expression, "Do you really see that the things picked up by the people in the village are not clean?"
I nodded: "It's really not clean." ”
"What will happen then?" Grandpa's brow furrowed.
"I don't know. All I know is that the baby they picked up is not clean and makes me very uncomfortable. "I went to the house of the people who picked up the treasure in the village and saw that the treasure they picked up was actually covered with black gas. Although it is a black gas, it is completely different from the cold aura that Cui Shenlin carried.
My words were quickly verified, but only in the poultry and livestock of the village. Therefore, it did not attract the attention of the villagers.
"Oh no, no, there's a chicken plague in the village!" Grandpa walked back from outside with a hoe. A little flustered.
"Grandpa, what's wrong?" I heard Grandpa's voice, put down my book and walked out.
"The chickens in every household in the village are almost dead, and even if they are not dead, they are like crazy, flying everywhere. Grandpa glanced at his chicken pen with some concern.
"It's all dead, is it really chicken plague?" I was a little skeptical. Even if it's chicken plague, chickens can't die so quickly.
"It's not chicken plague or what? This chicken plague spreads very quickly. One day, all the chickens in the village died.
"Is there any other possibility? Have you double-checked that these chickens really died from chicken plague?" I asked.
"Why do you ask such a stupid question? Not because of chicken plague, but because of something else?" asked Grandpa.
"Very likely. I'm worried that it's not because of chicken plague, but because of the treasures they picked up. I said worriedly.
"Are you talking about those things, because they are not clean?" Grandpa almost shouted. He was also stunned when he said this, if this is the case, it will be terrible!
Grandpa hurried back, worried that the family's poultry would be affected. But grandpa also woke up at this time, if it was really chicken plague, how could his own chickens not be affected?
"No, I'll have to talk to the villagers. Grandpa hurried to warn the villagers.
"But they won't believe you!" I shouted at my grandfather's back.
"I can't do it anymore, I have to tell them as soon as possible. Grandpa ran barefoot to the village.
"Huang Jingyang, what do you mean by unclean?" Teacher Lin walked out and asked.
"The villagers picked up a lot of things from Bajiao Mountain. But since these things have been buried underground for so many years, they must have brought some smell of the earth and even some unclean things. If you don't take action sooner, it's a big problem. I said worriedly.
I also noticed our poultry and livestock all the time, and I was relieved to see that they were all alive.
After an hour or two, Grandpa came back in frustration.
"These people in the village are crazy, and they don't believe anything I say. It is said that the family has picked up treasures, and in the future, they will sell them for money, and they will earn more than the buyers of poultry and livestock. They also said that I was red-eyed and they picked up the treasure. Grandpa sighed and shook his head.
"Grandpa, you don't care. The path they choose, where they go, that's their own business. "I saw that my grandfather looked bad, and he must have suffered a lot of anger in the village, and I was a little angry in my heart.
"Can't say that. How many families in this octagonal village are not related to us? Now that all the poultry are dead, who can predict what will happen next?" Grandpa would squat under the eaves and smoke vigorously as long as he sulked all his life.
The next day, the fearful thing happened again. All the pigs in every household in the village died. One by one, the big fat pigs all died overnight. Except for a slight blackening, there doesn't seem to be anything unusual about the pig.
"What's going on, what's going on?" Grandpa came to our house early in the morning.
"I told you yesterday that the things that I picked up from the Octagonal Mountain are not clean, who believes me? Now that this is the case, what else can I do? Now it is the hope, people must not have other problems. Grandpa sighed and shook his head helplessly.
"At this time, every dog barked non-stop, and I knew that something was wrong. But they all said that the things that were picked up from the Octagonal Mountain were valuable treasures. Able to sell for a lot of money. Now that the poultry and livestock are dead, everyone is afraid that there is no scruple anymore. Grandpa said.
"But who knows that the unclean thing is a scourge to the poultry, and if there is a scourge to the livestock, who knows that it is not a scourge to people?" said the grandfather with a chilling thing.
"Yangyang, tell me, will there be dead people?" the eldest grandfather grabbed me and asked anxiously.
I shook my head: "I don't know. But the unclean stuff is getting worse and worse. ”
Obviously, I've told grandpa my answer.
Grandpa let go of my hand: "What can I do about this? Can I throw those dirty things back now?"
Seeing that I was a little hesitant, my grandfather said unhappily: "Stinky boy, now is the matter of human life. You're still like this, grandpa beats you. ”
"Now there are not only the treasures that have been picked up that have dirt on them, but also the dead poultry and livestock, and the people who have gone to collect the treasures. If you want to be completely fine, you have to dispose of the treasures you have picked up, and you have to clean up the dead poultry and livestock. And you have to get rid of the dirt from those people. "I can only be honest. The people in the village never wanted to see me, and I didn't care much about their safety. But I care about my grandfather and Mr. Lin's words.
"Things can be thrown away, and those dead poultry and livestock can be disposed of, but what about these people?" said the grandfather worriedly.
"I can give it a try. I said.
I also wondered why there was nothing wrong with the bronze medal I picked up, but there was a problem with the treasures that the villagers had picked up. What is the reason for this?
Although the people in the village are already very nervous, the grandfather's actions are much smoother than the previous grandfather, and many households have already picked up the things and sent them to the Octagonal Mountain, but they are hidden somewhere, if they find that the limelight has passed, they can still pick up these treasures and pick them up.
But there are still a few families who give up their lives and money. I'm worried that if I send something back, someone else will steal it.
"Are we stupid? Now the chickens are dead, the pigs are dead, and all the poultry and livestock in the house are dead. Now that I've thrown these treasures away, what am I going to eat in the future?"
"You can do whatever you like. I'm not going to listen to you anyway. I'm not going to throw these things back. ”
My grandfather came back to me and said, "There are still three families in the village who are reluctant to send back the things they have picked up to the mountains. Dead chickens and dead pigs have already been dealt with. Later, everyone in the village will gather in the village for a meeting, you can go and see if you can help them solve the problem. ”
I don't know if the vitality in my body has any effect on these unclean things, but now I have to do it.
Teacher Lin didn't know what to say. This kind of thing is completely beyond her worldview cognition. Even though she knew early on that I was a different child, she still had a hard time understanding some of my behavior.
Grandpa was also very worried, and what happened in those two years is still vivid in his memory. He was worried that I would be in that half-dead state again, as I had done before.
