Chapter 18 My Name
The uncle took the lamp and illuminated the hanging black raccoon cat, and immediately neighed. He hurriedly walked over and picked me up from the ground and asked, "Where is your third uncle?"
"Uncle San is combing his hair in the room. It has been two days since he was combing his hair like a woman!" I said to my uncle.
The uncle hugged me and walked to the third uncle's room. He looked at the third uncle sitting in front of the dressing table to comb his hair. The uncle frowned tightly and was obviously shocked by the strange third uncle in front of him. After a while, the uncle lit a cigarette and said, "Does he do this every day?"
"Well, he has become like this the day after Grandpa left." I said.
The uncle nodded and said, "Okay, Baqian, you go back to the house first. I'll take the cat down and bury it. It's almost dawn. If it's time for others to see it, what would you think."
"Okay, uncle, be careful." I said to uncle, after all, the raccoon cat exuded a strange aura.
"It's okay." said the uncle. After that, he walked to the gate and took off the hanging raccoon cat, holding a shovel, dug a hole in the yard and buried it. After burying it, he returned to the room and said to me: "If you are sleepy, sleep for a while. Look at your dark circles, you will know that you haven't had a good sleep these two days."
"I'm not sleepy, why are you raising this?" I asked.
"Your grandpa told me before leaving and asked me to keep an eye on the situation in the hospital. Just now, the dog kept calling me up and saw the lights coming. Baqian, the family is like this, why don't you call me? Is it scared alone?" said the uncle.
I scratched my head and said, "Actually, it's nothing. Uncle San just combs his hair and doesn't leave the house. And Uncle San is not very proud of his face. I just thought about keeping this matter secret for him. How embarrassing it if it is spread."
The uncle smiled and said, "You are just thinking about him. But don't worry. Before your grandfather left, he said he would go out for at most three days and he should be home tomorrow. Everything will be fine when he comes back."
I nodded and smiled at my uncle. After he came, I was not so scared that I had an adult next to me.
My uncle sat in the room like this. He was a primary school teacher in the village and had always been serious. At this time, when I saw the third uncle in the cat sank, my uncle could not see any nervousness, and even could not see any emotional fluctuations on his face. I didn't know what he was thinking. He just smoked one by one silently, and I gradually became sleepy in the smoke and fell asleep slowly.
When I woke up, my uncle had already left home, and my third uncle was still playing cards with my friends. With my uncle's words, I stayed outside the gate and waited for my grandfather's return. Finally, in the afternoon, my grandfather's figure appeared in front of me. I immediately ran to greet my grandfather. My grandfather touched my head and smiled, "Baqian, do you miss my grandfather?"
I nodded fiercely and said, "I thought about it!"
After my grandfather and I returned home, we saw the messy grandfather in the house and immediately held our face. Uncle San knew that his grandfather didn't like this group of friends who immediately dispelled him. After they all left, Uncle San came over and said, "How about the old man, have you done it?"
Grandpa drank a glass of water and said, "No."
"And what you can't handle?" Uncle San said in disbelief.
"I'm not a god, so I can't handle too many things! But I know the origin of these yellow-skinned men." Grandpa said.
"What do you mean?" Uncle San asked.
"I saw a Huang Daxian Temple in the mountains there, so I asked the local people for inquiries. The local people said that this Huang Daxian Temple has been in some time and was built during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty. There is a legend in the local area that one night during the Hongwu period, many foreigners suddenly came to the village. These foreigners seemed to have fled, and they fled when they fled. The problem is that these foreigners were holding coffins of two big and small, and the village over there couldn't pretend at all.
So I found a vacant land to let them settle down temporarily. The next morning, all the vacant land disappeared, but the vacant land was filled with the smell of yellow skin. The locals realized that the group of foreigners last night was not human, but Huangxian, who had cultivated a climate. These Huangxian only stayed for one night and entered the mountain the next day. Since that night, the village has become extremely uneasy, not only are poultry and animals often
After losing it for no reason, many women in the village were harassed by Huang Xian. Seeing that it was impossible to live in peace, the villagers raised money to invite a mage to come. After the mage came, they knew that it was Huang's skin to harm the other side. Later, under the auspices of the ritual, the villagers built the Wong Tai Sin Temple on the mountain, with the Wong Tai Sin Temple as the boundary. The villagers and Wong Tai Sin lived peacefully and did not interfere with each other. Later, when the four olds were destroyed, the Red Guards smashed the Wong Tai Sin Temple, angering Wong Tai Sin Temple in the mountains.
, Huang Daxian came out and made a big fuss, but the Red Guards were not outdone. The troops went over and pushed directly into the mountains, killing countless yellow men in the mountains. The imperial concubine's tomb was discovered in the mountains at that time. Later, the conflict between people and Huang Xian became more and more fierce and no one was willing to give in. Both sides suffered casualties. Later, a master came forward to settle the matter. After the ten-year catastrophe, the Huang Daxian Temple was rebuilt." Grandpa drank and said.
"What does this have to do with the origin of these yellow-skinned men?" asked Uncle San.
"Think about it, when did the Nine Dragons coffin be pulled in the Fangcheng County Chronicle happen?" Grandpa asked.
"I'm going to be able to recite it during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty!" said Uncle San.
After Grandpa said this, I suddenly understood what grandpa said and asked: "Grandpa, what do you mean is that the Huang Daxian who went to the imperial concubine's grave actually lived on Qinglong Mountain? Because the Jiulong coffin was lowered from Qinglong Mountain, the back mountain became a forbidden area, so these yellow men moved there?"
Grandpa nodded and said, "You are still smart. I guess it should be like this. The age is just the same, otherwise there would not be such a coincidence. This explains why these yellow men are so interested in you."
"When you say this, it sounds like this. Baqian's father occupied the Huangpizi's home, so these Huangpizi deliberately wanted to deal with Baqian. Is that true?" said Uncle San.
When Uncle San said this, my face turned red suddenly.
Uncle San knew he had made a mistake and spat, "Baqian, Uncle San said that, don't take it to heart!"
"It's okay." I said. Uncle San was actually what everyone was thinking in his heart, including me, but no one would say it so clearly. Almost everyone thought that my father must be the one in the Jiulong coffin, that is, the mountain ghost in the forbidden area of Qinglong Mountain.
Uncle San looked at his grandfather and said, "Old man, have you discussed with those yellow men and asked them not to cause trouble for us?"
Grandpa shook his head and said, "I tried asking for a meeting in front of the Wong Tai Sin Temple, but Wong Tai Sin didn't want to see me. Obviously, they didn't want to talk about this matter. By the way, will the family be peaceful after I leave?"
"Peace, of course it's peaceful." Uncle San said.
I opened my mouth but didn't say anything. I thought to myself that you would drink, play cards and comb your hair at night every day. I must not know what I had experienced outside. Seeing that I was reluctant to speak, my grandfather called me into the house and asked, "Baqian, do you have something to say?"
I told my grandfather about the third uncle combed his hair at night and the raccoon cat hanging at the door of his house in the middle of the night last night. After I finished speaking, my grandfather, who was originally normal in his face, suddenly trembled and his face turned pale!
"Grandpa, what's wrong with you?!" I asked worriedly.
Grandpa didn't say anything, took out the tortoise shell and copper coins from his bag, shook the tortoise shell and threw the copper coins. After reading the copper coins, grandpa grabbed my shoulder and said, "Eight thousand, where is that cat buried, your uncle?"
"Under the apricot tree in the yard." I didn't know why my grandfather was suddenly so nervous, which made me worry.
Grandpa went back to the house and brought the incense burner over, lit incense under the apricot tree, and then kowtowed to the place where the black cat corpse was buried. After kowtow, Grandpa stared at the three incense sticks in the incense burner.
Grandpa said that this is a technique of observing incense. You can get the answer you want from the burning traces of incense and the shape of falling ash. He should be observing incense at this time. In addition to this, I was also shocked by the number of incense roots that grandpa burned incense. Because grandpa always paid attention to the three gods and four ghosts incense. The incense for gods is three incense, and the incense for ghosts is four incense. At this time, grandpa burned three incense for this black raccoon cat that had been hung to death. Could it be that this black raccoon cat is a god in grandpa's opinion?
Grandpa just stared at the three incense sticks until the three incense sticks burned out. Grandpa then kowtowed a few times on the ground and stood up. After grandpa stood up, I saw that grandpa's face was still very ugly. I walked over and asked in a low voice, "Grandpa, what's going on?"
"The cat is here to seek his life. Whoever he calls at the door is who he wants to exchange his life." Grandpa said with a dead face.
"He is my name..." I said in amazement.
Grandpa staggered to the chair and sat on it. He sighed deeply and said, "It's a turbulent time!"
I was frightened and hurriedly walked over and asked my grandfather, "Grandpa, what's going on? Why did so many evil things happen suddenly? Did they discuss the yellow skin, women, and this cat together?"
Grandpa sighed, "This is the unparalleled blessing and disaster will never come alone. Before I could figure out the situation of the yellow skin in the imperial concubine's grave, there was a damn black cat to mourn. But don't be afraid, even if Grandpa fights this life, he will never let you die."
"Grandpa, if Baqian really has to die, you must not exchange your life for my life. The villagers are right. I am a disaster star. Keeping me will only bring disaster." I said to my grandpa.
"Child, don't talk nonsense. Grandpa is old and your road is still long." Grandpa said.
After saying that, grandpa stood up and said, "I'll go out."
"Where are you going?" I asked quickly. Grandpa was about to go out again just after he came back. He also told me that this black cat was going to exchange his life for me. I was really afraid of going out at this time.
