Grandma asked that Teacher Qiao's coffin be buried upright, which immediately made the people around him extremely confused and began to whisper.
I was also very curious. I remember seeing zombie coffins dug up in zombie movies and buried vertically.
The two hidden dangers of the evil ghosts Wang Yaxuan and Zheng Xiumei who disappeared three years ago have been solved.
But I don’t know what grandma meant by asking Teacher Qiao to be buried with the coffin upright. Nothing would happen.
"Quack~"
Suddenly, four crows flew across the sky and hovered directly above the coffin. Coupled with the gloomy sky, the atmosphere was gloomy and depressing, giving it an even more ominous feeling.
Bang bang, suddenly my heart skipped a beat, and a bold idea came to my mind. Grandma wouldn't be, let's let Teacher Qiao turn into a very powerful zombie.
"This is so brightly red." At this time, Teacher Qiao's father asked, "I have never heard of people being buried vertically. Isn't anything going to happen?"
Others are also very worried.
"It's okay. Your girl has a lot of grievances. Only by burying her upright can she calm down her evil spirit. Don't worry." Grandma looked at the man digging the hole again and said, "Do as I say."
Seeing that grandma insisted on doing this, it was hard for people around her who didn't understand to say anything.
Because they were buried vertically. The grave needed to be dug very deep, and it took a long time to complete. The four tired people were panting and sweating profusely.
After the four people jointly put the coffin in, grandma dipped a brush in cinnabar and drew many runes on the coffin lid.
At this time, I clearly saw a trace of resentment coming out of the gap in the coffin, and vaguely heard the creaking sound of the coffin board being scratched inside. Suddenly, the runes on the coffin lid suddenly burst into red light, and there was a faint sound coming from inside the coffin. After the bang, there was absolutely no movement.
This terrifying sign scared the people around them to hide away, and the timid ones ran home directly.
I was also frightened. I took He Huanhuan and took a few steps back, staring at the coffin. Could it be that Teacher Qiao has transformed into a corpse?
Teacher Qiao's father was so frightened that he lost his composure and kept asking me what was going on with my grandma.
He Gui's legs were trembling, and looking at his panicked look, as if he was about to run away, I felt that something was wrong in his mind.
After grandma told everyone that it was okay, she ordered the soil to be filled.
The four people who dug the hole began to fill the hole with soil. Soon, a large grave appeared in front of us.
Teacher Qiao's parents, He Gui and a few people who were not scared away started burning paper, but they were a little absent-minded and obviously scared.
He Huanhuan knelt in front of the grave and said with tears streaming down her face: "Mom, please go away!"
After speaking, He Huanhuan kowtowed three times with a very calm expression, which made me feel very sad.
I quickly knelt down, took He Huanhuan's hand, looked at Teacher Qiao's grave, and said seriously: "Teacher Qiao, don't worry, I will take good care of He Huanhuan."
The thing that made Teacher Qiao worried the most during his lifetime was He Huanhuan, who not only asked me to take care of her, but also asked me to marry her.
Although I failed to agree to marry He Huanhuan in time, causing Teacher Qiao to leave with regret, my determination to take good care of Huanhuan became even stronger.
And when I kowtowed, I suddenly thought of the scene where He Huanhuan got up at her grandma's house yesterday and rushed home to see Teacher Qiao. She probably had a premonition of something bad happening at that time.
After everyone burned the paper money, they began to go home one after another. Before Teacher Qiao's parents went home, they wanted to take He Huanhuan away.
He Huanhuan said that he wanted to stay with Teacher Qiao for a while longer, so they went back first.
I accompanied He Huanhuan silently. Grandma didn't trust me and waited for us at the side.
Looking at He Huanhuan in a daze and crying, I felt worried in my heart, hoping that she would be more open-minded and nothing else would happen to her.
It wasn't until twenty minutes later that He Huanhuan looked at me and said, "Brother An, let's go home."
The voice was calm and a little cold. I was stunned for a moment, and suddenly I felt like she had grown up.
On the way home, I held He Huanhuan's hand and said, "Huanhuan, why don't you follow me back to my grandma's house? Your mother is gone and I'm afraid they will bully you."
Without Teacher Qiao's support, I'm afraid that Yin Wenqian will bully He Huanhuan when she comes back. Her bastard father has nothing to hope for.
He Huanhuan shook his head and said, "No, Brother An, I'd better go home."
I sighed, no longer forcing myself, and after sending her home, I walked home with my grandma. On the way, I kept thinking about the cause of Teacher Qiao's death.
With the burial, the truth of her death was also completely buried in the ground. I reluctantly asked my grandma, "Grandma, the cause of Teacher Qiao's death..."
But before I could finish my words, grandma said as if she was strategizing: "Xiao An, you don't have to worry. I believe that one day, the truth will be revealed!"
After hearing this, I curiously asked if grandma knew anything, but she shook her head and said nothing, making me feel like a beast.
After returning home.
As soon as I entered the room, my grandma asked me very seriously, "Xiao An, when Teacher Qiao asked you to agree to marry He Huanhuan before, you couldn't tell me. Is there something you're hiding?"
I also suddenly thought of this matter, so I told the truth in confusion. At that time, I didn't know why I promised you those three words, but I couldn't say them out.
"Hey." Grandma frowned and sighed: "It seems that in this life you can only be with the girl who is your other half's soul. She will not allow you to marry another woman."
"Marrying the other half's soul?" I didn't have much resistance when I heard this. I just saw that girl in my dream and I have a good impression of her. It would be good to be with her when I grow up.
Besides, I heard my grandma say that one of the purposes of my reincarnation is to find the other half of my soul and be with her.
However, I am very curious about how the other half of my soul knew that I was going to agree to Teacher Qiao's request and stopped me.
When I asked my doubts to my grandma, she said that this may be a restriction deep in my soul, which does not allow me to be with a woman except for the other half of my soul, otherwise she may stop me in various ways.
"Hey." Grandma sighed again: "That mysterious girl is the other half of your soul. I can't say anything about being with her, but I am very worried about He Huanhuan."
"Worried about He Huanhuan?" I asked curiously: "Grandma, what's wrong with He Huanhuan?"
Grandma had a sad face, "Huanhuan has known you since kindergarten, and now she is very attached to you. I am really afraid that when she grows up, she will fall in love with you and really fall in love with you."
"Ah? No way, grandma." My heart skipped a beat, "I only regard He Huanhuan as my sister. Even if I have any other feelings, I will immediately suppress them in my heart. I believe that He Huanhuan only regards me as my brother."
To be honest, He Huanhuan is not only beautiful and has good character, but also since we have been together for so long, there is not a trace of temptation that is fake.
Although I was still young at that time, I already knew the relationship between men and women.
But then I thought about it carefully. My feelings for He Huanhuan's brother and sister were greater than my love for them. There was a high probability that I would not fall in love with her.
Besides, my mission is to cultivate successfully with the other half of my soul, and it is impossible to marry other women or anything like that.
"But, who can say for sure when it comes to relationships?" Grandma took a deep breath and said, "I'm afraid that He Huanhuan really falls in love with you. By then, I won't marry you unless you are the one, what should you do?"
I scratched my head and felt a little irritated, "Grandma, there are so many outstanding men in the world. He Huanhuan may not like me. It's too early to say this now. Let's talk about it later..."
I deliberately avoided this topic, and then I put my slippers on the kang and wanted to sleep. After I went to Teacher Qiao's house last night, I kept my eyes open until dawn and was so sleepy that I didn't even want to eat breakfast.
When grandma saw that I was sleeping, she sighed and lay down and squinted for a while.
Not long after, I was awakened by the smell of rice, and when I opened my eyes, I saw that it was already past eleven o'clock.
After dinner, at around two o'clock in the afternoon, my grandpa came back from the town.
After learning about Teacher Qiao's condition, he immediately angrily scolded He Gui and those two beasts, and then sighed and said Teacher Qiao was really pitiful.
I also learned the news about Gongsun Tianqiang from his grandfather. His condition was slightly serious. His head often hurt and twitched slightly. The doctor said that he would have to stay in the hospital for more than a month at least.
But I secretly thought that it would be better for him to be beaten into an old fool by my mother. Besides being hospitalized for such a long time, I finally no longer have to be in the same class as him, which is a happy thing for me.
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, I went to He Huanhuan's home. As soon as I entered the house, I found her sitting on the kang, crying while looking at Teacher Qiao's photo.
He Gui wasn't at home, so he probably went to see that coquettish woman.
I comforted He Huanhuan for a while, took her to her grandma's house, had dinner and stayed for a while, then sent her back...
