Chapter 69
Sure enough, it was not until Aunt He had prepared the meal that Mr. He Chuanguo drove back in a tractor. He also pulled the big wooden box back in a car, saying that he would ask the villagers to help him tomorrow. In the countryside, birth, old age, sickness and death are first-class matters, and they are not careless, and life and death are more serious. The leaves fall back to their roots. After death, they will only be peaceful in the underworld if they are buried in their own cemetery.
During the meal, Mr. He kept pouring wine for me and Daya. Mr. He was an honest rural person. It was a great event for Mr. He's family to report the news. He kept calling us benefactors, which made us at a loss for a while. Daya could speak verbally. After a while, he tried to fool him, and he tried to drink too much, so he put down his bowls and chopsticks and went to bed.
The man He Changjun looked at the big and thick ones, but his alcohol tolerance was not as good as mine and Daya. After drinking a little, he turned red and his face so hard that he couldn't speak smoothly, but now he couldn't say a complete word for a long time, which made us laugh. After a long time of contact, we were not too distant. I just don't know why he was still a bachelor in his thirties. Seeing that this family was not living in a difficult family, I felt embarrassed to ask directly.
Mr. He's house has only two houses, one in the east and the other in the west. I was a little troubled when I arranged to sleep at night. As Aunt He said, I asked Liu Ye to sleep with her in the west room, while the four of us lived in the east room. But Liu Ye kept winking at me, and it was obvious that she didn't want to live with the aunt. I had to lie, saying that Liu Ye was my wife and Da Ya was my brother-in-law. They were all family members, so there was no need to worry.
Aunt He looked at us and seemed to be a little unbelievable, but she didn't say anything. She took us to the west room and helped us bring some quilts and pillows into the room.
When everything was almost done, I went to bed early in the countryside, and in a short while, the lights in the east room went out.
Daya looked at me: "Brother-in-law, how can we sleep? Where are you and my sister? Is it a little bit on the kang?"
Before I could speak, Liu Ye Xing's eyes glared: "Big Ya, are you tired of living? Do you need to pinch your sister for you a few times?"
Big teeth couldn't help but tremble, then looked at Liu Ye and me with shame, smiled obscenely, and said to Liu Ye: "Girl, let's not act. You choose whether you should sleep beside me, or sleep on the lit side, or sleep on us. I don't care, we won't pick it."
After hearing Daya say this, my head suddenly became dizzy. When I closed my eyes, I couldn't bear to look at it. I had already expected what would happen.
As soon as I closed my eyes, a series of screams came from my ears. I guess the body of my big teeth must have been blue and purple again.
I quickly "shhh" at them, signaling them not to disturb Mr. He's family in the east room. Then I looked at the kang, looked at Daya, and looked at Liuye, but didn't know what to arrange. After all, no matter how it was arranged, there must be someone sleeping next to Liuye. Although there was no longer the concept of men and women not being able to get along with each other in this era, the current situation also makes people feel a little trouble.
After a while of silence, Liu Ye waved his hand to Da Ya and asked Da Ya to go to the kang to sleep. She said that she was afraid of the cold and wanted to sleep on the kang. The meaning inside and outside was that she was sleeping on the kang. I slept in the middle, and Da Ya was sleeping on the kang. Da Ya rubbed his arm that was pinched by Liu Ye just now and went to the kang. I looked at Liu Ye, looked at Da Ya, pretending to know nothing, so I covered the quilt on my head and shouted: "Turn off the lights and go to bed!"
After saying that, the light went out. I lay straight in the quilt, not daring to move. No one spoke, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward.
I tried my best to squeeze the big teeth, and closed my eyes and started to think randomly. I don’t know how long it took, and the heavy breathing of the big teeth came from my ears. I probably fell asleep. There was no sound on the willow leaves next to me, and I couldn’t even feel the noise of breathing. I turned over, counted the stars and counted the sheep, and I don’t know how long it took to fall asleep in a daze.
I felt like I was asleep just now, and I felt someone pushing me next to me, which woke me up suddenly. When I shuddered, I almost shouted. When I realized that it was the willow leaves next to me, I swallowed it back again.
Why did I wake up from not sleeping well in the middle of the night? Could it be that? I just had some messy thoughts in my head, and I despised myself in my heart. Could it be that I had been lazy with Daya for a long time and my thoughts were a little dirty?
When Liu Ye saw that I was awake, she seemed very embarrassed and said to me in a low voice: "Brother Hu, can you go out with me?"
I was about to ask why I pulled me out in the middle of the night, but suddenly I realized that it might be because of her in a hurry and she didn't dare to go out, so I woke me up embarrassedly. Fortunately, I didn't ask the reason for it rashly, otherwise I would have to make me red-headed and swollen face. Although I couldn't see clearly, it was embarrassing enough.
I said nothing, nodded, grabbed the clothes under my feet and put them on. Liuye also put them on the coat. We both opened the door of the house, pushed open the door and walked out.
The bleak moonlight, and everything around it was covered with light blue shadows, it felt a bit sad in my eyes. The scene at night seemed very different from the daytime. It looked a little blurry and empty, and there was tranquility everywhere. This tranquility was like death, giving people endless peace. In the middle of the yard was Mr. He's tractor, and when he thought of the bones installed on the car, he was a little chilling.
The toilet was next to the firewood pile outside the yard. I walked in front and gently opened the door. Willow leaves followed me tightly, not knowing whether it was because of fear or a little embarrassed, so I pulled me up in the middle of the night to take her to the toilet.
I stood not far away and waited for her. I didn't have much time. Liu Ye walked over with her shoulders and smiled apologetically at me, as if she wanted to say something, but she shook her head and smiled again, saying nothing.
I saw that she seemed a little cold, so I quickly took him back. But as soon as I reached the gate of the yard, I suddenly saw someone standing still in the yard. I was so scared that I almost sat on the ground. I quickly grabbed Liuye, covered Liuye's mouth, pulled Liuye and hid behind the wooden fence, looking inside through the gaps in the fence.
Liu Ye was obviously scared and asked me in a low voice: "Who is that person? Could it be a thief?"
I didn't expect that this would happen, and I was so scared that I was frightened. After hearing Liu Ye ask me, I made a gesture to her, indicating that she should not speak, and held her breath. Liu Ye covered her mouth and stopped talking, and looked around with me.
I saw the man in the yard, with a medium figure, a little hunched back, and his back was facing us, facing the door, motionless.
I looked at it for a long time and felt that it was not like a thief. The thief usually stepped on it in advance and started quickly. He would not come in like this and stand blatantly in the middle of the road and touch it, right? Could it be that the thief was also lost? Isn’t this a joke!
I looked carefully at the figure that should be an old man. Could it be that Mr. He came out to relieve his actions? He was suspicious in his heart, and saw the black shadow slowly turning around and glanced at the direction of us.
At this time, the cold moon shone slanted, and we could see clearly that the man was wearing the old Zhongshan suit from the 1980s, and his feet seemed to be light. When he looked at his face, he immediately frightened us so much that he almost fainted. Liu Ye was so scared that he gritted his teeth tightly and hugged my arm tightly with his hands, his face paler than the moon.
He Tiancheng!
I have seen it not only once in the thatched hut, but now I am standing more than ten meters away from us. I seem to know the existence of Liu Ye and I. I looked at us for a while, and my lips twitched, as if I was laughing, but this kind of smile makes people frightened.
It's really a ghost. He Tiancheng has been dead for more than 40 years, so why did he show up here again? Are you looking for us or He Chuan Kingdom? Is this the wronged ghost asking for his life? Suddenly, my head was in a mess, and all kinds of thoughts were piled up together in a mess.
Suddenly a flash of inspiration passed by, and I suddenly realized that although He Tiancheng had been dead for forty years, his soul was imprisoned in that straw house. It was not until the beginning of the spring, the Yin Aoke disappeared, and the black cat disappeared, his soul left his body. Although he had been dead for forty years, from another perspective, he had only been dead for a few days. After calculating the beginning of the spring, I couldn't help but feel a little scared. It was exactly seven days, which was the "first seven", which was the "soul-returning night" mentioned by the common people...
The first seven refers to the seventh day after a person dies. After a person dies, the soul will float everywhere, and the soul will return home on time at the "first seventh" hour. The family should prepare a meal for the soul before the soul returns, and then avoid it. The best way is to sleep. If the soul of the deceased sees his family, it will make him worry and affect his reincarnation and reincarnation as a human being.
I blocked Liuye behind me. Liuye was so scared that she could not speak at this time. Her face was as white as a piece of paper, and her whole body was shaking in a ball. I looked around and there was no one available. I didn’t know if the ghost of He Tiancheng was hostile to us, but for the sake of caution, I had to be careful. But when I came out in the middle of the night, I didn’t expect such things. All the things I could use were in my backpack. Now I was empty-handed and I couldn’t do it. I could only bite my tongue and saliva it.
While I was thinking about a countermeasure, the door was suddenly pushed open from the inside. I saw big teeth appearing sleepy and walking towards the ghost of He Tiancheng without raising my head or opening my eyes. I said as I walked, "Oh, I said it's bright, why are you standing here if you don't sleep well in the middle of the night? Are you pretending to be a ghost?"
