Eight hundred and six nights Don't eat the tribute
Stealing tribute and causing trouble, don't be greedy for safety.
The story takes place in the sixties and seventies, when the whole country was still relatively poor, especially this kind of small mountain village has basically just gotten rid of food and clothing, and the spiritual and cultural construction is almost zero.
On the eighth day of the tenth lunar month of this year, a wealthy family in the village married a daughter-in-law and invited a team to sing a big opera. The singing of the opera is generally arranged the day before the wedding, because the wedding ceremony will be held on the same day, so it must be one day in advance.
In those years, there was a rule in that area, you must set up a bench on the opposite side of the stage to put the ancestors' spiritual seats, put some tributes, and invite the ancestors to come and see if the descendants are mixing very well. But this rule lasted only a little more than three years before it was abandoned, because it was later discovered that it was not necessarily something to sit on on the stool!
It is said that the daughter-in-law's family invited to sing a big opera, and there was a person named Zhang Xiaokai in the next village who also went to join in the fun, Zhang Xiaokai and their village were very poor, and it was difficult to marry a daughter-in-law, let alone invite someone to sing a big opera, so every time he went to other villages to join in the fun, and he himself was almost forty years old and still a single.
On this day, he came to this village, because it was a time when the farming was slack, people got up late, and when he arrived, it was already more than ten o'clock in the morning, and the big drama began in the morning, and many people gathered in front of the stage. Behind the crowd is the bench, on which are the ancestors of the family, all kinds of tributes, a furnace of incense is prosperous, according to the local saying is that the ancestors of the incense are happy, and the family will be prosperous.
Xiao Kai listened to it all morning, he didn't eat when he came out in the morning, and at noon the people who sang the big opera also rested and ate, Xiao Kai felt hungry to death, and he didn't have dry food, so he secretly went to the bench and took a piece of tribute pastry without anyone paying attention.
Because I was afraid that people would find out, I could only stuff it all into my mouth at once, and the pastry at that time was dry and hard, so choked that I rolled my eyes, beat my chest for a minute, and finally swallowed the pastry, and when I looked back again, I don't know when there was a little daughter-in-law on the side of the bench.
Xiao Xingxing thought, whose little daughter-in-law is this, she really doesn't understand the rules, and the stool for worshiping the ancestors is also casual to sit on, and there is no sitting appearance, and she sits cross-legged, which is the way of sitting for old men in the countryside at that time.
However, this little daughter-in-law is still quite handsome, which makes Xiao Kai, a bachelor, a little fascinated.
At this time, the drum music sounded, and the big drama started again, Xiao Kai hurriedly went to listen to the play again, but he couldn't listen to the play in his heart in the afternoon, and his mind was full of the little daughter-in-law, and when he looked back, he saw that the little daughter-in-law was no longer there.
Waited until the play was over, Xiao Kai went home, and ate a piece of pastry one day, without even drinking a sip of water, Xiao Kai was hungry and thirsty at this time. Walking to a crossroads in the village, I suddenly saw the little daughter-in-law with a young offspring appear from the side, just met in the middle of the intersection, Xiao Kai thought about the little daughter-in-law for an afternoon, and suddenly bumped into it, and couldn't help but blush.
The little daughter-in-law still smiled shallowly, and the man reached out and grabbed Zhang Xiaokai's sleeve, pointed to the door not far away, and nodded to Xiaokai. Xiao Kai understood what the man meant, as if the young couple's home was there, and wanted to invite him in to sit down. 596
Xiao Kaizheng was very thirsty, and he thought that it would be okay to drink some water, and he could look at this little daughter-in-law a few more times, so he said: "That~ is a little thirsty, brother, I will make a bowl of water to drink." ”
So Housheng and his little daughter-in-law took him into a door, the house was a simple adobe house, and there was no furniture in the house, just a fire kang and a red lying cabinet, Xiao Kai sat on the edge of the kang, and Housheng brought him a bowl of water from another room, and brought him a few pieces of snacks to eat. Xiao Kai felt sleepy after eating and drinking, and fell asleep on the kang.
When he woke up the next morning, Xiao Kai found that he was sleeping on a big stone in a large cemetery, and there was a large red lacquer coffin opposite.
And as long as he goes out at night, he can see the little daughter-in-law waving to him and smiling at him, and the offspring also follows, laughing at the little one.
Scared Xiao Kai closed the door early at night and didn't dare to go out half a step, his body was getting worse and worse, and in just a few days, he lost weight and couldn't get up on the kang.
Xiao Kai said: "I should have met a ghost, if you don't come, I have to die, you come now and hurry up to Liujia Village, eighty miles to the east, to find my uncle, his old buddies can pinch and calculate, the skill of exorcism and soul summoning is good, you go and ask my uncle to invite him, maybe I can still be saved."
Xiao Kai's uncle and his buddy, both of whom are in their 60s, heard the news and drove the donkey cart to Xiao Kai's house that night.
Xiao Kai didn't dare to hide it, and told them about it 1510. Uncle Xiaokai's buddy is also surnamed Liu, Xiaokai called him Uncle Liu, and patted his thigh after hearing about him: "It's bad, you are eating their things, you have to vomit out your illness quickly to get better, or even if the ghost sends it away, your illness will not be cured!"
While speaking, Uncle Liu took out a yellow talisman from his body, and when he came, he heard about it and felt that it was ready to be used, read a few words that he didn't know what to say, lit it with a match, put it in a bowl and burned it to ashes, washed it away with water, and took out a bag of powder and sprinkled it in it to feed Xiaokai to drink.
As soon as a bowl of runic water was put down, Xiao Kai spit it out, and all the things that spit out were stinky black water, and there were pieces of black unknown objects, which almost spit out when the people in the room saw it. After vomiting, Lao Han fell asleep.
When Zhang Xiaokai woke up again, it was already three days later, the uncle and his old buddies have been with Xiao Kai for the past three days, Xiao Kai woke up and his body was very weak, his uncle boiled a big bowl of porridge for him, after eating Xiao Kai recovered a little strength, and lay down very weakly, a few days later, Xiao Kai's body recovered and was able to get off the kang and walk around by himself, and the uncles left.
This story spread quickly in the local area, and since then, few people have put benches in the back when singing big operas!
