Runsheng and Tan Wenbin immediately looked at Li Chaiyuan, their eyes burning, silence is better than sound at this time.
Since leaving home, I have indeed experienced a lot of strange things, and I have seen a lot of deaths, but the big fish and meat were all of a sudden, and I began to miss a light mouth to nourish my stomach.
For the two of them, digging a corpse normally is cultivating sentiment.
Li Chaiyuan nodded.
The two immediately looked at each other and smiled, Runsheng lit a "cigar", and Tan Wenbin couldn't help but rub his hands excitedly.
Yin Meng entered the inner room, she first pushed the lid of the coffin open, then went outside to bring in the warmed clay pot, poured it into a bowl and fed it into the old man's mouth little by little with a spoon.
This is not medicine, but more like a thick sugar water, which is here to hang the old man's life.
After feeding, Yin Meng opened a basin of hot water, changed the old man into a new diaper, wiped his body carefully, and finally changed into clean clothes.
After doing this, she wiped her sweat with the back of her hand.
The old man opened his eyes.
Yin Meng was stunned for a moment, and then laughed out loud:
"Grandpa, you can actually open your eyes, and your complexion is much better, it seems that you are going to get better."
Li Zhuiyuan kept standing by and watching, he knew that the old man could open his eyes, he was cerebral infarction palsy, and he was not in a vegetative state, besides, many vegetative people could also open their eyes and take a look.
The old man deliberately didn't respond before, because he wanted to deliberately chill his granddaughter's heart, it was best to treat himself as a mule to pick up and serve.
Today, I took the initiative to open my eyes, probably because I wanted to take one last look at my granddaughter.
As for the good complexion on his face, it is actually a standard reflection.
After talking to the old man happily, Yin Meng picked up the basin containing the dirty clothes and went out to wash.
Li Zhuiyuan walked to the coffin, looked at the old man, and saw relief in his eyes.
Last night, the old man did not ask him to tell Yin Meng the truth, thinking about it, he didn't want his granddaughter to tear new scars again after being "abandoned by her parents" at a young age.
Just saw Yin Meng's attitude towards the two half-brothers, heh, old man, don't make two oil bottles for your granddaughter.
But after thinking about it, Li Chaiyuan felt that the old man would not make such a mistake.
To put it bluntly, how can there be any really good men and women on the river?
How easy it is to kill people on the river, just tie a stone and sink it.
On weekdays, they rely on the way of heaven, the second is goodness, and the third is to rely on worldly rules to restrain them, but what if one day they don't care?
So, don't push the "honest people" into a hurry.
Li Chaiyuan walked to the door of the inner room and happened to see Yin Meng drying her clothes while wiping her tears.
Also, after all, he is a corpse hunter with an orthodox inheritance, so why can't he see the reflection.
It's nothing more than each other acting for a decent curtain call.
Yin Meng thanked and agreed to Tan Wenbin's help, and after cleaning up the house, he took everyone on the road.
Along the way, the two boys seemed to want to talk to Li Chaiyuan, a child of the same age, but Li Chaiyuan was carried by Runsheng, ignoring them, and focusing on a person who did not contact, did not understand, and was not responsible.
The road is not far, just in a village adjacent to the county seat, and there are many villagers watching the excitement by the river pond.
The bodies of a man and a woman were still floating on the water, with the man bowing down and the woman leaning back, but they were close to each other, as if they were unwilling to be separated until death.
If it weren't for these two people fighting in the village for three days on weekdays, I am afraid that they would have been rumored to have met and martyred.
Li Chaiyuan got off Runsheng's back, stood by the river pond and glanced at it, and it was clear that these two people were not unswerving until death, but the corpses were stuck together.
Unlike Bai Ying, who was an ordinary drifter, their bodies were black, like two pieces of spoiled and blackened pigskin jelly.
There were two middle-aged men arguing with a one-eyed old woman, and looking at the guys they were carrying behind them, they should be local corpse diggers.
The two drifters here are still dark and there is something wrong, and the price of the corpse has to be calculated separately.
Obviously, the two sides failed to reach an agreement on the price, and the one-eyed woman would rather continue to soak in the water with her son and daughter-in-law than "suffer this loss".
Seeing Yin Meng coming, the one-eyed woman immediately pointed proudly and smiled: "Okay, I don't need you two to have a dark heart, my eldest granddaughter is here."
As she spoke, the one-eyed woman came over very enthusiastically, smiling at the beginning, crying halfway through, crying and laughing precisely when she got to the front, and then grabbed her hand with tears, as if she had finally looked forward to the backbone.
"Eldest granddaughter, you are finally here, hurry up, pick up your parents, they are pitiful~ pitiful~"
Tan Wenbin couldn't help but roll his eyes next to him, thinking that there was such a shameless person in this world.
When she was young, she was ignorant and would cry to find her mother, but her mother deliberately hid from her, and every time the one-eyed woman came out and scolded the girl with the most harmful words.
Once in the cold winter twelfth lunar month, the one-eyed woman poured out a basin of water, making Yin Meng cry and walk home.
The girl was also stupid, and when she got home, she told her grandfather that she was playful and fell into the ditch.
The old man is also stupid, and he really believes it.
Li Chaiyuan knew that it was true that the old man loved his granddaughter, but it was also true that he was careless, otherwise he would not have really believed the "letter" left by his son.
Yin Meng didn't have a hot relationship with the one-eyed woman, but said lightly: "I'll fish people out."
"Hey, hey, okay, okay."
Yin Meng looked at the two local colleagues, their faces were a little unsightly, but they couldn't say anything, so they could only light a cigarette by themselves and carry the guy's affairs back with their heads down.
People are taking advantage of her own mother, and it is not a bad rule to grab business.
Although I feel a little reluctant in my heart, I am already playing with hot hands, so I will handle it.
Tan Wenbin set up the offering table and lit candles, and Runsheng moved the small fishing boat over and placed it by the river pond.
Yin Meng stood in front of the offering table and began to perform the ritual.
Li Chaiyuan stood beside her and watched with interest.
Compared with his grandfather's casualness in rituals, Yin Meng is obviously much more professional and standard, and although many rituals are not standard, they can also see the ancient rituals.
Especially the obscure syllables coming out of his throat through the trembling of his lips and teeth made Li Chaiyuan very interested.
Last night, when the old man was doing business, he faced the ghost and communicated in this way.
Nonsense is a lot of nonsense, and sometimes it may be a compliment to a certain special ability.
After the ceremony, Yin Meng began to prepare to retrieve the corpse, but before she could leave the offering table, she saw that Runsheng and Tan Wenbin had already rowed out of the boat.
Yin Meng crossed her waist and looked at Li Chaiyuan helplessly: "How embarrassing is this."
"It's okay, their hands are itchy."
Yin Meng smiled and said: "My hands are itchy too."
Because of the high price, she can't take on a few corpse fishing businesses all year round, and this time she is gearing up.
Runsheng and Tan Wenbin cooperated very tacitly, the two corpses could not be separated because they were glued together, so the two simply carried one side by side, and then:
"One, two, three!"
From the boat, jump to the ground.
Yin Meng watched the whole process and said with some surprise: "The rules for collecting corpses in Nantong are similar to ours."
Li Chase was noncommittal, if he let his grandfather come, Yin Meng would probably not feel this way.
Runsheng's set of procedures was corrected by himself according to the records in Wei Zhengdao's book, including the moves to deal with death in "The Record of Righteous Path Subduing Demons", which he also taught Runsheng, and Tan Wenbin learned from Runsheng.
It can be said that what Runsheng and the others have just shown is a textbook template, the most professional standardized action.
The two carried the body straight into the one-eyed mother-in-law's house, and a large mat was laid out on a row of benches, and the body was placed on its head.
The one-eyed woman found a white sheet and covered her son and daughter-in-law, and then her nose was sore, and when she was about to enter the state and cry, the two women next to her stepped forward, one stabbed her waist, and the other whispered a few words in her ear.
The one-eyed woman immediately woke up, dispersed the villagers who came into the house to see the body, only let her relatives in, and then deliberately stepped forward, took Yin Meng's hand, pulled her into the house, and then erected the door panel of the living room.
Outside the house, the villagers whispered to each other.
Tan Wenbin saw Li Chaoyuan sitting on a small bench, so he squatted over and asked curiously: "Brother Xiaoyuan, they are not in a hurry to hold a funeral, what are they doing?"
Li Chaiyuan: "Orphan."
Tan Wenbin: "Can you be so shameless?"
Li Zhuyuan didn't answer, and looked down at an earthworm that was drilling out of the soil under his feet, half of his body was outside and half inside.
Tan Wenbin asked again: "Brother Xiaoyuan, what should we do?"
"What should I do?"
"I mean, do you want to help her?"
"What does it have to do with us?"
"At least, they can be considered friends, right?"
"Then respect your friend's choice."
"Eh......" Tan Wenbin grabbed his hair hard, "But this matter is not good, what if she really faints and agrees?"
"Then respect her fate."
in the house.
In the middle of Yin Meng Station, there was a group of people standing around, as well as the two boys.
The one-eyed woman pointed to the group of adults and introduced: "Eldest granddaughter, they are all your relatives, this is your uncle, this is your second uncle, this is your eldest aunt and second aunt......"
The one-eyed woman has three sons and one daughter, and Yin Meng's mother is married to her youngest son.
Yin Meng's eyes swept to this group of "relatives" who were not related to him by blood.
At this time, they all had smiling faces on their faces.
The one-eyed woman continued: "Eldest granddaughter, your parents are gone like this, I have collapsed this day, I am an old woman, and my body is not good, but these two grandsons can't be left alone.
They still have to study, eat, and dress, but I really can't carry it~"
The one-eyed woman sang again.
The "uncles and aunts" next to him immediately followed along:
"Yes, yes."
"It's difficult, it's really difficult."
Yin Meng didn't speak.
Seeing that the girl didn't pick up the stubble, the one-eyed woman was not discouraged, so she took Yin Meng's hand and called her two grandsons over:
"Come on, Niu Wa'er, Ma Wa'er, in the future, you will follow your sister, my sister will provide you with food and drink, for you to go to school, hurry up, thank you, sister."
"Thank you, sister."
"Thank you, sister."
The one-eyed woman turned her head to look at Yin Meng again and said lovingly:
"This arrangement is also for your own good, you are also single at home, if you get married in the future, you don't even have a mother's family, you will be bullied.
Niu Wa'er and Ma Wa'er are your own brothers, compatriots, if you raise them, they will be able to help you in the future, and they will also be your backbone and confidence in the future.
This matter has been decided."
The one-eyed woman smiled and prepared to open the door, first close the door and tell the house about the matter, and then open the door to announce it to the villagers.
Yin Meng finally asked: "Do you want me to raise them both?"
"Ah, yes, don't you like your two younger brothers, look, how well-behaved they are."
Every time the two children went to the county seat and went to the coffin shop, Yin Meng either kept them for a meal or gave them some pocket money.
Yin Meng asked again: "Do you want me to raise the two of them?"
"No, how good is that. If you get married in the future and have two younger brothers, your in-laws will definitely not dare to bully you; Even if you don't plan to get married, your two younger brothers and their children can help you provide for your old age."
"Oh."
Yin Meng nodded.
Seeing this, everyone around them breathed a sigh of relief, and while also smiling, they also sent various compliments to the girl.
The one-eyed woman was even happier, and the folds on her face bloomed like daisies.
The two boys should have been instructed by their relatives and elders, and they both grabbed the girl's leg at this time: "Sister."
Yin Meng raised her hand, waved it at the two boys, and waved it heavily:
"Snap! Snap!"
Both boys were pulled to the ground, covering their swollen right faces, the corners of their mouths were broken, and blood flowed out.
At this moment, the room was dead.
What broke this dead silence was the crying of the two boys after getting out of the stunned state.
The one-eyed woman patted her thigh with both hands and wailed: "God, this is a conscience!"
She pounced on Yin Meng while crying.
Yin Meng raised her foot and kicked her heart directly.
"Bang!"
After the one-eyed woman was kicked to the ground, she rolled several times.
Yin Meng not only did not dodge but took the initiative to step forward, one over-the-shoulder fell and knocked one of them to the ground, and then locked the other's hand and kicked him in the back.
She has the ability to fight to the death, and it is really easy to deal with ordinary people.
"Why are you still beating people!"
"Is there a little upbringing!"
The "aunts" and "sisters-in-law" were still chattering on the side, and Yin Meng walked up, grabbed one by the hair, and slapped them in the face.
"Snap! Snap!"
The rest wanted to hide, but Yin Meng chased after them, grabbed their hair with both hands, dragged them back, and forced them in front of the two corpses on the mat, so that their faces were close to the corpses.
Yin Meng pressed their heads and rolled back and forth, which was equivalent to beautifying the two of them, and they couldn't tell whether it was water or oil on their faces.
"Ah!!!!"
Screams, one after another.
After repairing everyone in the room, Yin Meng saw someone getting up, and when he went up, he kicked someone over again.
She looked very calm, she didn't cry, shouted, or even scolded, but her fists and feet were very hard.
The two boys were left there at first and didn't care much, but they took the initiative to come and "beg my sister not to hit me", and Yin Meng slapped them again with a backhand and begged for symmetry.
It's wrong to beat a child, but she's also a child, and most importantly, beating a child relieves her anger.
After cooking, Yin Meng walked to the door of the living room.
"Bang!"
The door panel was kicked off, and Yin Meng walked out.
The villagers poked their heads into the house and found a bunch of people lying inside.
Tan Wenbin stood up and walked up to Yin Meng and applauded vigorously: "Yes, yes, I'm really worried that you will agree."
Yin Meng rolled her eyes: "My brain is not in the water again."
Runsheng observed inside, shook his head, and said: "Not all the teeth have been knocked out."
At this time, some of the villagers shouted: "The village chief is here, the village chief is here!"
A middle-aged burly man wearing a hat and a cigarette in his ear walked over, his eyes swept over the audience, and the scene immediately became quiet.
"Hit someone, you're going to kill someone, find the police station, find the police station!"
The people in the house crawled out, their faces swollen like pigs' heads, and their hair disheveled, like ghosts coming out of the cage.
The village chief looked at Tan Wenbin and Runsheng who were standing next to Yin Meng, and were about to speak when Li Zhuiyuan's voice came first: "Runsheng, Binbin, go back."
Runsheng and Tan Wenbin immediately retreated.
Li Chaiyuan pointed to Yin Meng and said: "Everyone saw it just now, she went in alone, no one else followed."
The surrounding villagers nodded one after another.
The village chief was shocked, this girl is so capable, she beats a room of people by herself?
He looked at the girl and asked, "Say, why did you hit someone?"
Yin Meng: "They want to ......"
Li Chaiyuan: "They want to tie her up and marry her to another family to receive a bride price, this is human trafficking!"
The village chief was stunned for a moment, regardless of whether it was true or not, as soon as this reason was said, plus if the girl was fighting alone, it would be considered a trouble in the police station, and there would be no follow-up with the mud, let alone accountable.
"You are talking nonsense!" The one-eyed woman was covered in blood between her teeth, and shouted hoarsely, "Whoever wants to sell her, who wants to sell her!"
Li Chaiyuan: "Then what are you calling her in, what is her blood relationship with you, and what kind of relatives are she?"
After saying that, without waiting for the people in the room to react, Li Chaiyuan waved his hand: "Let's go, go home."
Runsheng and Tan Wenbin each carried their things, then opened the way one left and one right, and squeezed out of the crowd with Yin Meng.
The villagers were originally here to watch the fun, but when they saw one of the two men holding a shovel and the other with a hook, they took the initiative to get out of the way.
A few young people in the village wanted to see the village chief's eyes and see if they wanted to stop people, which was out of the traditional plot of the same village, but the village chief didn't wink at all.
The one-eyed woman didn't dare to set up a passage: "Just let them go like this, they almost beat people to death!"
The village chief glared at her and asked, "What are you doing calling the girl in?"
The one-eyed woman said of course: "Let her take her two younger brothers to live!"
Hearing this, all the villagers looked at each other, and the village chief also held his breath in his chest.
"You deserve it!"
Spit heavily on the ground, and the village chief left directly.
When the four of them returned to the county, it was already dusk. Yin Meng was not in a hurry to go back to the coffin shop, but pointed to a hot pot restaurant and said:
"Eat hot pot, I'll treat you!"
Everyone rushed over without much food at noon, and in the afternoon they walked and fished for corpses, and they were all hungry, and soon they each made a hairy tripe and duck intestines.
Yin Meng asked for wine, got up and poured it for Runsheng, Binbin and himself, and then poured soy milk for Li Chaiyuan.
Raise your glass.
"Thank you!"
After saying that, Yin Meng took a breath of suffocation, and then choked violently and coughed.
Tan Wenbin was a little dumbfounded and said: "Forget it, forget it, if we can't drink, we won't drink, you and my brother Yuanzi can drink milk together."
Yin Meng wiped her mouth and said, "The process has to go!"
"It's already gone, it's done, come, the belly is ready, eat quickly, otherwise you will get old."
When facing death, the busiest person may be Runsheng or Xiaoyuan, but the busiest person at the dinner table is always Zhuangzhuang.
When we ate hot pot next, everyone tacitly didn't talk about what happened today.
Tan Wenbin asked Yin Meng what she would like to do if she didn't open the coffin in the future, and Yin Meng said she didn't know, she said that she might not want to change is also a kind of love for the status quo.
Yin Meng asked the three of them what they wanted to do in the future, Li Chaiyuan and Tan Wenbin replied that they wanted to go to college, and Runsheng replied that he would ride them to college on a tricycle.
After everyone was full, Yin Meng went to check out.
The four of them walked back to the coffin shop side by side, and while washing, Tan Wenbin said with a smile:
"I found that sleeping in a coffin is really comfortable, and when I go back, I have to persuade Uncle Li to buy longevity materials in advance, so that I don't have to sleep on the round table in the future, Runsheng, what do you think?"
"If you dare to go back and say, Uncle Li will dare to kill you and let you lie down in that mouth of longevity first and bury yourself."
"Just kidding, let me tell you, I have made a new breakthrough in my studies recently."
"What?"
"It's inconvenient to say now, wait until Ming'er takes the boat and talk to you in detail, if you want to learn, I can teach you, but you have to beg me."
"Can't I find Xiaoyuan?"
"Don't say it, this Xiaoyuan may really not be able to teach."
Yesterday, a small distance taught myself how to end the yin walk, which is to find the feeling of floating.
It's like saying to a student who is new to the piano: As long as you feel it with your heart, you can play a moving melody.
But the problem is that I don't even know the key positions, and I can't understand the piano score.
After washing, everyone lay down in their own coffins.
After Li Chaiyuan slept for a while, he vaguely heard a cough, he turned his head sideways and went yin.
Walking into the inner room, I saw the old man crawling out of the coffin, and a "rustling" sound came from Tan Wenbin's coffin next to him.
"He was like this last night, I could sense it, it seemed like he was going to go yin, and when I really pulled him out, he was shocked to death when he saw me."
Li Chaiyuan's eyes froze, and a shadow fell on the coffin where Tan Wenbin was, and it was immediately quiet.
The old man was startled by this scene and hurriedly said: "You can't use this trick if you want to interrupt his yin walk, if you don't do it well, it will cause damage to his brain."
After saying that, the old man seemed to realize something, and shook his head with a smile and said: "Forget it, I'm overworried, you are more precise than me."
He had seen with his own eyes the boy's terrifying learning ability last night, and his current attainments in the twelve methods of the Yin family were much more advanced than that of him, an orthodox descendant.
Frequent yin walking can easily cause loss of consciousness, and Li Chaiyuan is now controlling Binbin's frequency.
However, what makes Li Chaiyuan even more strange at the moment is the current state of the old man.
"Why do you feel better?"
"Ah, I am also wondering, it stands to reason that I should not even have the strength to go to the yin today."
"Yangshou is back?"
"Are people dead?"
"Both are dead."
"Then it shouldn't be, if the transaction is done, how can there be a refund?"
It stands to reason that this should have been a good thing to take advantage of, but the old man couldn't be happy, so he scolded instead,
"Isn't this a blind delay!"
Obviously, they have all returned to the light, and it has only been two days since they died, and they are about to free themselves and their granddaughter, but they can continue to live again.
The old man walked to the wall, stretched out his hand and pressed down on the mirror, and the door panel immediately became transparent.
The Ghost Festival is over and the temple fair is over, but there are no "people" on the road, and there are still scattered people walking.
Li Chaiyuan suspected that the place of Fengdu should have its own mystery, and in other places, the boy had never seen so many ghosts.
Perhaps, the legend of Yin Changsheng's ascension here is not groundless, but the "ascension of the day" here may be quite different from the kind in normal people's cognition.
Although there were few people outside, the entry factor increased, and as soon as the door opened, a dark shadow drifted in.
These black shadows were almost the same, as if they were wearing a black robe, and they couldn't see the human face at all, and they couldn't even tell the gender.
But it feels like I "saw it" yesterday.
The old man and the black shadow began to communicate in an obscure buzzing voice.
After the exchange, the old man sighed, sat back on the chair, covered his face, and couldn't laugh or cry.
The black shadow did not leave, still standing in place.
The old man waved his hand: "You should go."
The black shadow still didn't move.
The old man said angrily: "Why, you still want to die?"
The black shadow turned to drift towards Li Chaiyuan.
Instead of being afraid, the boy was a little secretly happy, and his eyes showed a little eagerness to try.
The old man reminded: "He belongs to the Dragon King's family."
The dark shadow stopped and retreated out of the coffin shop without hesitation, blending into the darkness.
Li Chaiyuan looked at the old man: "Why do you want to say it?"
"This is a ghost street, at the feet of Emperor Fengdu, don't conflict with these things unless it is a last resort."
"Your Yin family has been developing and inheriting here for a long time, have you ever studied the special situation here?"
"Our surname is Yin, and we have the same surname as Emperor Fengdu, we ...... is his descendant."
"Do you have a family tree?"
"Yes, aside from the Eastern Han Dynasty, our family used to be royal relatives."
Li Chaiyuan looked around the coffin shop: "Now I really can't see the atmosphere of the emperor's relatives and relatives."
The old man said disapprovingly: "This is normal, just pick one of the hundred surnames and count them up, which ancestor has never been a prince or a powerful person?"
"Have you investigated?" Li Zhuyuan continued to ask about the previous topic.
"Yes." The old man nodded vigorously, "The ancestor was a cultivator, but the ancestor was able to ascend because he ate an elixir."
"I remember that it seems to have been recorded in "Baopuzi" that your ancestors also got a "Dan Scroll"."
"This is fake, it is recorded in the genealogy. If you really have this thing, you can refine your own alchemy, and the ancestors who ascended to immortality don't know how much they will get.
In fact, according to the evidence of several generations of ancestors, what our ancestors ate may not be elixirs."
"What is that?"
"Corpse Pill."
"It seems that your family really put a lot of effort into researching it before."
If there is not enough evidence, who would say that the ancestors ate the elixir as the corpse eating pill, and insulted their ancestors when they were idle?
Relevant Taoist texts record that after Yin Changsheng became an immortal, he played in the world for a long time before finally ascending...... So the ascension here can also be understood as disappearing?
Is it possible that Yin Changsheng didn't fly up, but drilled down?
Combined with the line engraved on the stone at the entrance of the store:
"If you don't walk at night, how do you know that there are night walkers?"
Yin Changsheng said that after he became an immortal, he realized how many people had successfully preached since this dynasty, and he said that many immortals did not like to disturb the world, but only liked to live in seclusion.
If Yin Changsheng was eating corpse pills, then wouldn't those reclusive immortal friends in his mouth be ......
The old man spoke: "The ancestors used to be very keen on studying this, and even crazy about it, but later, firstly, the family background declined, and secondly, they had been studying and did not find anything useful, and the ancestors of the descendants became quiet.
These things are recorded in the genealogy, you can ask Mengmeng to take out the genealogy for you during the day, you are copying a copy...... You can borrow it directly to see it."
Li Chaiyuan walked to the position where the black shadow was standing before, looked at the old man across the counter, and asked:
"Do you want to do business with me?"
He really said the secret of his ancestors, and he was even willing to lend him the genealogy.
Where can I listen to these things for free and borrow them for free?
The old man waved his hand: "I'm too lazy to recruit Mengmeng's son-in-law to inherit the surname, although there are many secrets recorded in this genealogy, but what is the use of Mengmeng and me?
If you like it, just take it, and that's how you make the most of it."
"Old man, I'll give you another chance to bid."
"Take Mengmeng away and let her follow you."
"She is not a cargo, she is a person, can you say take it away?"
The old man's expression relaxed, and he didn't refuse, but talked about the price, which proved that the other party was still willing to make this deal.
"Mengmeng is a pure child, I believe that with your intelligence, you can take her away. Ah, I don't mean that your mind is impure."
"You are still alive, she will not leave."
"I'm going to die."
"Then what did you just say, why did your Yangshou come back?"
"It didn't work, the transaction didn't work, and it was returned."
"But the man is dead."
"It wasn't it. It said that it was the two boys in the house who were playful and poured pesticides into the rice jar, and the one-eyed woman was reluctant to throw away the rice, but washed and cooked.
The one-eyed woman was afraid that she would be held accountable, so she tied the two dead people on the bed together, dragged them into the river pond, and pretended to be drowning."
"Can she have so much strength alone?"
"She told her eldest son, and her eldest son came to help her, on the condition that the younger son's house and land were given to the eldest son, and she could also live in the eldest son's house and let him provide for herself."
"She is sober, no wonder she wants to throw those two boys to Yin Meng during the day, this is to 'go to retire without debt'."
"Mengmeng is not stupid, she won't agree."
"Do you really think so?"
"What if not?" The old man naturally asked, "I will never attack those two boys, they are innocent."
"Hmm."
Li Chaiyuan didn't believe it.
It is true that he couldn't understand nonsense, but if it was just a normal buying and selling failure, then Sombra would not have stood here for so long.
There is a high probability that it is because the big project has not been completed, so I want to discuss how much to do the small project and how much to pay for it.
Who that small project refers to is self-evident.
It's nothing more than that things have changed, and the old man feels that there is no need to do small projects, which makes the black shadow who has been busy all the way in vain, very angry.
"I'm going to die, I'll let Mengmeng leave here without any worries, the world is very good now, she should go out and take a look, she's really seen the outside world, and she doesn't like coming back here, at least she won't have any regrets in her heart."
"Tell me how you died."
"It's not easy to die, and then make a deal and let the customer kill myself."
"It's really simple."
"You don't know, I am alive now, and I am also in pain, and I also want to be liberated."
"Then hurry up, I won't stay here for long."
"Okay, don't worry, as long as you agree, I will arrange for myself to die immediately."
"I can agree, but there is one thing I must explain first, I am a registered disciple of the Liu family, but I have not officially started yet, so my relationship with the Liu family is different from what you imagined.
Don't think about it, I will definitely be able to bring Yin Meng into the Liu family."
"The ability you showed yesterday, for me, it doesn't really matter whether it is the Liu family or not."
"Okay, I agree."
"Thank you."
"Didn't you say yesterday that you didn't want her to go down this path?"
"The light returned once during the day, although it didn't die, but it made me look away from some things, the cute path, she chose it herself, if she really doesn't like this path, I believe you will arrange it for her, because you are the smartest person I have ever seen in my life."
So smart, almost like a person.
"Sleep."
"You rest in peace."
The next morning, Li Zhuyuan woke up and sat up from the coffin.
Yin Meng was removing the door panel with Runsheng, preparing to open the business that was destined to have few customers coming to the door.
"You are awake, I cooked preserved egg and lean meat porridge in the pot, drink some?"
Li Zhuiyuan's eyes bypassed the enthusiastic Yin Meng and looked at Runsheng behind him.
Runsheng shook his head seriously.
This can't help but arouse Li Chaiyuan's curiosity, how pesky is the food that can make Runsheng feel unpalatable?
But he was still unwilling to test the poison with his body, so he shook his head and said: "I want to eat steamed buns."
Runsheng immediately answered and walked out of the store: "I'll go buy it."
Yin Meng was a little disappointed and said: "However, there is still a lot of porridge left in my pot, and I cooked too much."
Li Chaiyuan comforted: "It's okay, when Binbin wakes up, leave it all to him, he loves to drink porridge."
Lift the coffin and wash it.
Li Chaiyuan walked up to Yin Meng again and said frankly: "I want to see your family's genealogy."
Yin Meng did not hesitate: "Okay, I'll get it for you."
She just felt that there was nothing in the family tree that could not be shown to others, especially friends.
The genealogy is very thick and large, and for easy reading, it can only be placed on the ground.
The Yin family does have a history, because the beginning of his family tree looks like a mythological story, turning several pages in a row, talking about which daughter-in-law or daughter of the Yin family, either taking a nap by the river or dreaming of some wonder, and then, she became pregnant and gave birth to a noble figure.
It seems that in those days, the women of the Yin family were only busy with one thing, and that was to get pregnant inexplicably.
The middle section is like a historical narrative, which is more rigorous and can be consistent with the official history.
Behind it is the dense research and scientific research of the ancestors of the Yin family.
This couldn't help but remind Li Chaiyuan of the original owner of Lu Ba Village, the ancestor of the Qi family.
They are all a group of crazy people who are obsessed with research, but the ancestors of the Qi family studied the space mezzanine, and the ancestors of the Yin family studied the most famous ancestors in their own history.
The content is too detailed, and there are also large travelogues and arguments, which is actually not a genealogy, but more like a summary of family research over the years.
Counting what he already had on hand, the notes of the ancestors of the Qi family, the bamboo slips on the masked man, and the Yin family tree.
The notes of the ancestors of the Qi family have been remembered in his mind, but due to physical reasons, he has not had time to decipher them, and the bamboo slips have not yet been restored.
However, these three books are all extremely attractive.
Only those who love to read understand what kind of happiness it is to weigh the thick follow-up content when they are excited.
At noon, when Yin Meng was changing his grandfather's diaper, the old man opened his eyes again.
This time, he also spoke, the facial paralysis caused by cerebral infarction was severe, the skin muscles were weak, his lips could not be lifted, and his voice was extremely weak.
Or Li Chaiyuan heard the movement and came in to translate.
There is not much fresh content, they are all instructions and blessings from the elders to the younger generation, cliché but sincere.
The old man seemed to be very relieved of Li Zhuiyuan's ability, he didn't even mention letting his granddaughter follow the boy, and Li Chaseyuan didn't pave the way for himself.
Everything is best to let nature take its course.
After finishing the chat, she called Runsheng to accompany her to the clothing store on the street to buy white cloth and black gauze, and also went to the white shop to buy funeral supplies.
The reason why I didn't call Tan Wenbin to go with me was that Binbin had food poisoning from drinking porridge in the morning and was vomiting and diarrhea.
This surprised Li Chaiyuan, knowing that Binbin had even eaten the meals of the dead family several times, and had eaten dirty bacon, just like that, he couldn't stand the porridge cooked by Yin Meng.
When everything is ready, everyone is quiet and peaceful, and the funeral is predictably simple, because whether it is a coffin shop or a corpse digger...... They are destined to have no relatives or friends.
Perhaps, Li Chaiyuan and the four of them were at the upcoming funeral, with only guests.
That night, Li Chaiyuan heard the wind blowing from the coffin, and he turned over and did not go out of the yin.
The next morning, everyone got up first and ate the soy milk fritters they bought from outside for breakfast.
After the meal, Yin Meng, as usual, did not look at the shroud that had been prepared, but went to bring the washed clean clothes and diapers.
Open the coffin and want to help grandpa wipe it and replace it.
Inside the coffin, the old man closed his eyes, lost his breath, and walked steadily and peacefully.
Yin Meng cried, tears welling up in her eyes, but after wiping it hard twice, she smiled and turned her head to the three people behind her and said:
"It's great, my grandfather is gone."
