my weird life.

Chapter 975 Old News of the Longevity Archway (12)

Before Su Wu could reply, grandma raised her head and looked outside the door of the firewood room, and shouted, "Huzi, Huzi!"

Li Heihu, who was chopping firewood outside the door, heard his grandmother's shout, put down his ax and hurried into the firewood house, looked blankly at the grandparent and grandson sitting on the small stool, and said, "Grandma, are you calling me?
What's up? "

The old woman snorted, stared at Li Heihu who didn't know why, and said, "Huzi, grandma asked you, what happened to the stonemason who laid the pile?"

Li Heihu's expression froze, and he immediately turned to Su Wu who was at the side.

Su Wu looked as usual, and said at this moment: "Grandma, I am not a child anymore.

Now even if Li Heihu didn't talk about it in my ears, Zhang San and Li Si wouldn't pay attention, and would reveal some of what happened back then. I'm not a mindless fool, and I'll always pay more attention to my mother's past. .

Moreover, I got sick this time because I always saw a 'woman with a white hijab' in the middle of the night—that night, as soon as this female ghost came out, she kept pinching my neck, pinching me vigorously, and pinching me. Passed out!

I saw that female ghost floated out of my mother's urn! "

Grandma lost her mind for a moment when she heard the words.

She looked shocked, and was stunned for a long time before she asked Su Wu in a trembling voice: "You child, you encountered these unclean things at night, why didn't you tell grandma earlier?

If you were killed by a female ghost with a white hijab, how would you let grandma live! "

"I don't want to worry grandma..."

"If something unexpected happens to you because of this incident, grandma will regret it to death!"

"Wait!"

Grandma grabbed the wooden stick by the wall and stood up tremblingly while supporting the cane.

She ordered Su Wu and Li Heihu to wait in the firewood house, then walked to the main room where the two slept, and took out the urn placed on the table directly opposite the door.

Taking advantage of the time when the old woman was moving the urn, Li Heihu asked Su Wu in a low voice: "Zhuzi, is there any danger in the urn? Ask grandma to move it, in case something happens..."

Su Wu shook his head: "I have already checked thoroughly.

There is no danger. "

"That's good." Li Heihu relaxed.

The two watched the old woman holding the urn in one hand and leaning on a cane in the other. She slowly moved out of the main room and rushed out to greet them, but when they walked out of the door, the old woman stopped them seriously: "Everyone keep watch!" Stay in the house!

If there is a ghost in this box, it can only harm me.

You two can't accompany my old woman to die! "

Hearing this, Li Heihu sighed helplessly, and turned to look at Su Wu who was beside him. Su Wu stood there without any movement.

Seeing Su Wu like this, Li Heihu felt relieved instead.

The old woman leaned her cane against the outer wall of the main room, and put the urn on the wooden plank covering the water tank behind the entrance wall. She touched the urn covered with a dark blue coarse cloth, and sighed softly: "Juanzi, if you have a spirit in the sky, please bless and bless your child, so that he will be free from illness and disaster for the rest of his life, and live in peace..."

After whispering for a while, she took off the coarse cloth from the urn and opened it.

The red silk bag in the box wrapped a pile of snow-white bones.

Grandma stared at the pile of pale bones, dazed for a moment.

Her eyes were flushed, and the sigh in her eyes was more than sadness. After she was dazed, grandma cautiously reached into the red silk bag, rummaged through the pile of bones, and found a piece of smelt that seemed to be silver—— Su Wu smelted the silver-like cross and put it back into Li Wenjuan's urn.

Later, grandma found a piece of yellowed paper from the ashes.She spread out the paper and saw Li Wenjuan's birth date written on it.

In this day and age, there are not many literate people.

There are even fewer literate women.

Grandma happened to be one of them.

She stared at the date of birth on the note for a while, and her eyes stopped on the hole poked by the silver-like cross on the note—the old woman suddenly blushed, clutching the note tightly. The tears kept falling!
She was trembling violently, her breathing became heavier and more urgent, and she turned her head to look at Li Heihu who was beside the chaimen.

Heihu shrank his neck in fright at his grandma's gaze.

Then I heard my grandma say in a trembling voice: "Huzi, go and call all four of your grandpas over here!

Grandma wants to discuss something with them! "

"Ah!" Li Heihu came to his senses immediately, and quickly responded, "I'll go right away, Grandma, you wait here, I'll go call them right away!"

"Go, go..." Grandma nodded lightly. She reached behind her to get her crutch, but she couldn't find it for a moment. Wu already stood behind grandma, supported grandma in time, and helped grandma to sit on the small chair at the door of the firewood room.

Grandma patted the back of Su Wu's hand, weeping silently: "Wang Huan is a wolf...Grandma originally thought that he was your father, so she gave him some kindness, but she didn't expect him to be so ruthless, he was so ruthless... nah!

Your mother died miserably... It's also because I didn't protect her well. If I had listened to her more and talked to her more, maybe I would have discovered something, and maybe she would not have been killed..."

The old woman muttered in a low voice, her eyes full of hatred and regret.

Su Wu listened to her words, covered the urn, and put it back in the main room.

He then turned back, and after calming down the old man's emotions, he asked softly: "Grandma, how did my mother die?

You don't have to worry about his face.

He doesn't recognize me anymore, and I will be named Li from now on, and I am from our Li family. Why are you caring about a stranger's face?Tell me what you know. "

"Yeah, Zhuzi is already from the Li family..." Grandma touched Su Wu's head, as if she had found some comfort, and gradually regained her spirits. She held the note in her palm, recalling it while Said, "Your deceased grandfather and I have no children, only your mother has a daughter.

Because she is the only child, and Lao Li's family has few children, she has been favored since she was a child.

When she grows up, your grandfather and I originally planned to bring a son-in-law into our home, but she fell in love with a poor scholar from the next village——your father..."

Grandma chatted a lot, and she also told about some experiences of 'Li Wenjuan' when she got married and several quarrels after she married Wang Huan, but she never got to the point.

Su Wu didn't urge her, but let her speak like this to relieve her emotions.

She talked for a while, and finally talked about something related to the "mason who drove the pile": "In the year you were born, your father was once again in the autumn, and your mother told me that he was in the autumn this time. After that, I didn't feel depressed, but I stopped reading and ran around all day instead, not knowing what I was doing.

Your father got acquainted with another scholar who was also in the same autumn, and the two often went to the casino together, and quickly lost all their wealth...

Also in that year, the capital sent many craftsmen to various places to build the "Longevity Archway" where famous mountains and rivers converge. In the foundation of the archway, put the horoscope of your family's birthday, you can benefit your family, make your family enjoy wealth and prosperity...

After all, this kind of thing is very evil. Who can throw the horoscope of birthday, which is not easy to show to others, into the foundation because of a few rumors, and be pressed under the ground with stones?
But there are also people who are obsessed with ghosts and secretly ask the stonemason to throw their birth date into the foundation...

"Zhao Zhen", a second-rate boy in Zhao's house in the south of the village, threw the horoscope of his birthday under the Longevity Archway on the Wanshan side. Not long after the news got out, he fell ill and vomited out his heart and liver and died!

At that time, I had a dream one night. I dreamed that your mother was pressed under a big rock, and a hand grew out of the sky, holding a hammer and smashing the stone on your mother's chest. , I heard your mother kept crying, I panicked, and woke up from the dream with tears...

I heard about Zhao Zhen's bum, and your father was bewildered by gambling at that time. I was worried that he would do this kind of thing too. I was worried all night, and when the sky was bright, I woke up your grandfather. The two of you went to the next village to see your mother.

Wang Huan was not at home at the time, and Juan'er was feeding the chickens with her big belly in the yard.

Your grandpa and I stayed at her house for a while, knowing that she didn't feel any discomfort recently, so I was relieved. At that time, I still thought that Wang Huan was a person who had studied, so he wouldn't make such an unreasonable act. things.

Later... I learned from Wang Huantong's villagers that the reason why your father was not at home that day was because he went to look for those masons who laid piles... Since that day, Juan'er's health has deteriorated day by day. After insisting on giving birth to you, she also died..."

Recalling the past, the old woman especially burst into tears and was very sad.

Su Wu pondered for a while, grasped the clues in grandma's words, and asked her, "Are the longevity memorial archways built by those craftsmen still standing?"

"That is the archway built by the high officials in the capital, who dares to demolish it privately?

They are all well placed in the deep mountains and old forests. "The old woman wiped her tears and replied, "After the piling happened, it is said that someone secretly asked Mr. Feng Shui to have a look.

Mr. Feng Shui said that these archways are standing seven inches from each dragon vein, locking the dragon veins everywhere.

It is said that in this way, the nobles in the capital will be able to secure their seats forever, and it will last for a hundred generations..."

While grandma was still talking, there was a sound of footsteps outside the yard.

Several tall old men led two or three middle-aged men who were also strong and strong, squeezed into the gatehouse of grandma's house, turned around the wall to welcome the door, and gathered around Su Wu and grandma.

"What happened?"

"Old sister-in-law, why are you crying?"

"My brothers and sisters are all here, Auntie, if you have something to say, just tell us, whoever provokes us, we are not afraid of him!"
