Granny He's brows furrowed into knots, her fingers tapped on the armrests of the chair, and her leaf cigarette was held between her lips.
I clutched the corners of my clothes and looked straight at Granny He.
The lingering smoke made his face foggy...
After a long while, He Guipo said quietly: "I don't care about this matter."
"Liu Shuigui nourishes the yin and gives birth to children, so he deserves to die."
"But I didn't expect that Luo Yinpo would die... the evil mother can't kill her."
His words shocked me!
This female evil spirit is my mother. She has been harming me. Po Luo Yin and my father must have been killed by her.
But He Gui Po actually said that she couldn't kill Luo Yin Po? !
How can this be?
I immediately expressed my doubts!
But Granny He just ignored me...
Instead, he looked at his second uncle and said that he and Luo Yinpo had an old relationship and they had to find out the cause of Luo Yinpo's death.
Now he will go with us to Lijiacun first and wait for us to pick up the body of Luo Yinpo. He will talk about other things after seeing it.
The second uncle looked happy and told me not to keep asking.
Since Granny He is willing to help, this matter must be settled!
Granny He walked out of the house first, followed closely by her second uncle.
I was walking at the end, but my mind was in a mess...
Not long after, we returned to the shore of Hejiacun.
When we returned to Lijiacun Pier, it was just past noon.
We didn't stay at the dock.
Because it has to be dark before the body can be retrieved.
In addition, my father died in a special way. Even if there is a ghost lady here, the second uncle still needs to prepare a lot of things to ensure that nothing goes wrong.
So my second uncle asked me to take Granny He home and come back to the pier when night falls, and he would go to the village chief to buy three animal sacrifices.
The three of us split up in two ways in front of the pier.
I led He Guipo to my home.
It's just after noon and my stomach is already empty.
After inviting Granny He to sit down, I got into the kitchen and packed up some food.
My family is very poor, and we don’t even have any meat.
White porridge, flour pancakes, and peanuts are the most decent meals.
He Guipo didn't mind it at all. After eating, he closed his eyes and rested.
I was sitting in front of the threshold in a daze.
If you walk straight out from the mouth of my house, you will see the water of the hanging river dozens of meters away. If you walk diagonally for a hundred or two hundred meters, you will reach the village entrance pier.
I don’t know how long I sat there, but suddenly I saw a villager walking over from the village road.
He crouched, folded his hands, and walked outside my yard, where he stood and looked at my house.
As we got closer, I noticed that his face was pale and his eyes were distracted, as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight...
The more he stared at my home, the more uncomfortable I became.
Finally I couldn't help it anymore, grabbed a stick, walked over and asked him what he wanted to do.
But he looked at me with a mournful expression and said quietly: "Li Yinyang, you have killed Luo Yinpo, and you are going to kill others."
Why was there a sense of deathly silence in his voice and demeanor? Like extra desperate.
I was confused after hearing this.
Then I felt that these villagers were really sick.
Why should I take the blame for everything, as long as it involves a dead person? !
But my heart felt like needles pricking my head.
Luo Yinpo died in the Xuanhe River because of me.
She had nothing to do with this matter in the first place...
Just when I was lost in thought, the villager suddenly looked at me, raised his hand, and gave me a hard push on the shoulder!
His slap came suddenly and with great force!
I didn't dodge at all and was pushed to the ground by him.
I sat on the ground with a groan, my tailbone hurting from the fall.
When I stood up, the villager had disappeared...
I cursed in my mind, what is this?
But suddenly, from the corner of my eye, I saw a bloody slap mark on my shoulder!
At that time, my head was buzzing and cold sweat broke out on my back...
This villager is weird and weird, but he gave me a bloody slap? !
Suddenly there was a coughing sound behind him.
I subconsciously turned around and found out that it was Gui Granny He standing at the door, staring at my shoulder with a wrinkled old face.
Before I could say anything, He Gui Po narrowed her eyes and said coldly: "Dead man's blood, bad luck! Take off these clothes!"
I immediately got goosebumps all over my body...
I hurried into the room and quickly changed out of my clothes.
Entering the main room again, Granny He sat back on the chair.
With a cigarette between his lips, he suddenly turned to look at me and said, "Li Yinyang, there are quite a few people in this village who will die thinking of you."
My heart skipped a beat.
Over the years, people in the village really hope that I will die early...
Every time they scolded me, they were really vicious.
I really want to say that I have gone too far. Apart from the last time the villagers came to the mourning hall to curse me, and the fact that I was slapped with dead blood on my shoulder just now...
Thinking of this, I said with a pale face: "Jiang Shang lives, Jiang Shang dies, the King of Hell cannot make a living, they have always treated me as a plague... they have scolded me for more than 20 years."
But Granny He suddenly shook her head and said: "Scolding you is different from just now. It is a deadly slap and will make you look sneaky."
After saying that, Gui Po He lowered her head and stopped talking.
I felt a thrill in my heart, are you being sneaky?
My mother is cruel enough, but she still lets me be sneaky...
Isn't this going to kill me? !
I was so frightened that I asked Granny He, "Is it okay if I change my clothes?"
But Granny He still didn't say a word, as if she was asleep...
The rest of the afternoon, I felt uneasy.
Until sunset, the night begins to engulf the twilight.
Everything around became quiet...
it's getting dark……
Before I could say I wanted to go out, Granny He opened her eyes and stood up, walked out of my house and walked towards the dock.
When the two of us walked to the pier, it was completely dark.
On the pier, there are two long tables!
The cold wind blew whiningly, like a ghost crying
The long table is covered with white cloth, and on the front table, there are pig heads, cow heads, and sheep heads respectively!
The desk at the back is the mourning hall.
There are red candles on both sides, an incense burner in the middle, and two spiritual tablets at the back.
One part of this spiritual tablet belongs to my father, and the other belongs to Po Luo Yin!
Immediately, I felt sore in my heart!
The second uncle picked us up at the dock. He spoke solemnly and told He Gui Po again, saying that the old man died unjustly and that the man who fished for the corpse died in the water. He was full of resentment. It might not be easy for him to fish out the corpse. He Gui Po was here. Stay close by!
He Guipo looked calm. He reminded me that after my second uncle fished out Liu Shuigui, he also remembered to fish out Luo Yinpo.
The second uncle nodded repeatedly.
Immediately afterwards, my second uncle patted me on the shoulder and told me not to cry all the time. Man, what does crying sound like? !
Then, he asked me to punt the boat while he went down to retrieve the body!
I blurted out at that time that I, the son, should retrieve my father’s body!
He has taken care of me for more than 20 years. I have not been able to provide for him in his old age. I must at least be able to provide for him until the end of his life...
