Zhang Hazi looked at the bamboo knife I handed over and asked me with a puzzled look, are you crazy?
So I told him my speculation. After he listened, he immediately showed a look of great contempt on his face and said to me, if I lie on your back, will I not notice it?
Let me tell you, when did it leave? Why didn’t I feel it at all?
Zhang Hazi said that he should have charmed you to the top of the mountain and died. As for why you didn’t feel it, Hazi asked me this question?
As soon as I heard this, I knew that Zhang Hazi would definitely scold me again. In order not to be further beaten by Zhang Hazi, I hurriedly changed the topic and said that it was better to go down the mountain quickly to avoid encountering unclean things again.
With Zhang Hazi by my side, I felt extra at ease. As we walked, I couldn't help but ask him why he only charmed me to the top of the mountain and then stopped. It looked like he was taking revenge on me, but it didn't look like he was taking revenge on me.
Zhang Hazi said, "There are other Yin people who want to deal with you, why should they do it themselves?" Is it possible that it likes to have more karma so that retribution can be passed on to its descendants?
I nodded, remembering what Zhang Hazi told me before, whether you are a yin person or a yang person, there is a cycle of cause and effect. Even the cause and effect that is not repaid in this life will continue to be entangled in the next life.
Because whenever entanglements occur, there must be inextricable connections between them, and as time goes by, these entanglements will have an increasing impact on future events. When they accumulate to a certain extent, they will naturally will explode.
This sounds very mysterious, but in Zhang Hazi’s words, this is not feudal superstition, this is called the butterfly effect!
I say, but it shouldn’t be. How does it know that the person holding the torch will definitely find me? Besides, if that guy wants someone to help find the child, he should be looking for an acquaintance of him, not me, a stranger, right?
Zhang Hazi said, because you can find it.
Let me tell you, what bullshit reason is this?
He said that if you can find its tomb, it means that when you went up the mountain before, you must have looked at that tomb, and you also saw the photo of the old tomb.
I still don't understand. When Xie Bugui pointed it out to me, I did glance over there, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to find that tomb just now. But I believe that I am definitely not the only one who has seen that tomb and its photo!
Moreover, Xie Bugui said before that in the past few days, people in the village have been digging graves day and night to confirm whether their ancestors were alive. In other words, those people also came here at night. Fenshan, why were they not entangled by that guy, but they were entangled by me?
Zhang Hazi thought for a while and said, Haha, do you remember that when you looked at the photo of his body, you thought about how old he was?
I carefully recalled the original scene, and when I was about to answer Zhang Hazi, I was interrupted by Zhang Hazi with a wave of his hand. He said, I don’t need you to tell me, but with your character, listen to Lao Xie. After Fuguidi explained, he must have moved the old man's sympathy.
Hearing this, I looked at Zhang Hazi with wide eyes and asked, "You know all this?"
At that time, I saw that the other person was about the same age as me and had similar experiences to me, so I inevitably felt a little pity in my heart.
Isn't it my grandma's skill to read minds? Why does Zhang Hazi know it?
Could it be that he had stayed with Wu Tinghan for too long and learned it unknowingly? Wu Tinghan is already very scary. If there is Zhang Hazi again, will I have any privacy in the future?
Zhang Hazi snorted coldly when he heard this and said, it was because of your sympathy that that guy thought you could help others, so he relied on you.
So that's the case, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. As long as Zhang Hazi doesn't know how to read minds, it's easy to say anything.
But, I haven’t heard before that you can’t feel sympathy when you see the photo of a dead person?
Zhang Hazi said, when Wu Tinghan taught you how to put makeup on a dead person, was that what you said?
I thought about it and said, let me get rid of distracting thoughts and have no distractions. The most important thing is to avoid feeling compassion and pity in my heart. Otherwise, I will easily be entangled by the deceased and ask the person who writes the makeup to fulfill his last wish.
Zhang Hazi said, not only should you not be emotional when applying make-up to a dead person, but you should also not apply it to cleanse the face and close the eyes of the dead. When you were applying makeup in Zhangjiacun, you should have heard me tell you that it would not last long in your memory.
Speaking of cleansing the face and closing the eyes, I immediately remembered the scene where Mr. Zhang Yuan cleansed Uncle Zhang after his death. Zhang Hazi explained to me at that time that you must not be emotional when cleansing the face, otherwise the deceased will not be able to feel at ease. Reincarnation.
The same goes for when you see a portrait on a tombstone in a cemetery. Don't show emotion, especially sympathy. Don't feel pity for the person when you see them young. You will be the unlucky one then. If you live in a rural area and need to go to a mountain tomb during festivals, you must remember this!
Zhang Hazi said again, plus it returned the child it picked up to old you, so you owe him a favor. The two affections are in harmony. If it doesn't look for you, which one will it look for?
This was the first time I used this method when I was in love, but I didn't argue with Zhang Hazi because no matter what I said, I couldn't convince him, so I might as well save my energy and concentrate on my journey.
So Zhang Hazi and I walked down the mountain one after another. Since we were halfway up the mountain, we didn't walk long before we saw the foot of the mountain. Seeing this, I couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief again, and finally walked out.
But when Zhang Hazi and I walked to the bottom of the mountain, I was dumbfounded again. I stared at Zhang Hazi with my eyes and couldn't say a word--yes, he and I were back at the top of the mountain!
After a while, I said with a trembling voice that we were back at the top of the mountain again.
I didn't dare to look back, for fear of blowing out the flame on my shoulders, so after I finished speaking, I waited patiently for Zhang Hazi's response, but after waiting for a while, there was silence behind me, and there was no sound at all.
I hurriedly turned around to look, only to find that there was no one behind me except my vague shadow!
How is this going? Could it be that I was bewitched by ghosts again?
I reached out and slapped my shoulders and head three times each, but it didn't help. I was still standing on the top of the mountain. Apart from me, the surroundings were still empty except for the rustling of leaves in the wind.
And the rustling sound became louder and louder, as if the wind was blowing louder and louder, but I didn't feel a hint of coolness, and even the clothes on my body were not blown.
I walked forward for a while and found that the weeds and leaves around me were motionless, but the rustling sound still continued, and it was louder than before.
What's going on? Could it be that I'm hallucinating? Or is this wind blowing locally?
Before I could figure out what was going on, I saw the soil on Xie Chuanyin's grave rising and shrinking, and the rustling sound became clearer!
Only then did I realize that those rustling sounds were not the wind blowing leaves at all, but the corpses in the grave bags, using their hands to press the soil around the tomb!
They want to crawl out of the grave!
I thought that I would be completely safe after sending away the person holding the torch, but I didn't expect that Xie Chuanyin's wife would not let me go!
It seems that Zhang Hazi is right. I opened Xie Chuanyin's coffin. As a pallbearer, he will not give up so easily.
And listening to this rustling movement, it's definitely not just the corpse in the grave that wants to escape. Zhang Hazi is now at the foot of the mountain again, leaving me alone to face so many corpses. I am completely helpless!
What should I do? Is it possible that I am really going to die here this time?
