Different generation married man

After walking like this for a stick of incense, I saw a hill from a distance. This hill is also strange. The side facing the main road seems to have been artificially dug into a relatively smooth side.

On this mile, there are also square holes, some of which are empty, and some of which are blocked with stones.Seen from a distance, the empty grids looked like mouths opened wide, roaring silently, and Mo Ming felt a chill in his heart.

Su Mo looked at it for a long time but didn't see what it was.

At this time, a woman came from a distance, holding a basket in her hand, walked to the bottom of the earth wall, planted three pillars of fragrance, fell down and knelt down, still muttering words, as if she was worshiping the ancestors.

But there is not even a grave here, just a strange wall of earth.

"Brother Zhao, what is that?" Su Mo asked.

Zhao Cheng turned around, and when he saw what he was referring to, his expression changed suddenly, and he said, "It's nothing."

Xiao Wu also changed his face, and asked Zhao Cheng, "How far is that land?"

Zhao Cheng glanced at Xiao Wu and knew that this one was clear, so he cooperated and said, "There is still a little way to go, just make two more turns and go around the hill ahead."

Su Mo looked at the two of them suspiciously, as if they wanted to leave quickly. Originally, he was just asking casually, not really wanting to find out, but the strange attitude of the two aroused him instead. curiosity.

"Then what is it?"

Zhao Cheng didn't know how to answer, so he went to see Xiao Wu. Xiao Wu rolled his eyes and said angrily, "It's not a good thing, don't ask."

The two of them wanted to get over this, but Qian Cang, who had been silent all this time, was quick to speak at this time, and took it in one gulp, "Master Su, that's Shengji."

"Shengji? What's that?" Su Mo asked, looking at Xiao Wu and Zhao Cheng, they didn't look very good.

Zhao Cheng was so angry that he rolled his eyes, and secretly cursed Qiancang as a fierce thing, but the words had already been spoken, so he could only bite the bullet and continue.

Zhao Cheng stared at Qian Cang desperately, and said, "The so-called Shengji is actually Shiji who released the dead. Because saying the word "dead" is unlucky and sounds bad, so it was changed to Shengji."

?? Is this the place where the dead are released? Su Mo looked horrified, "Doesn't people here need to be buried if they die?" "

He remembered that the ancients were quite superstitious and believed that burying in the ground was safe, but this thing doesn't look like burying in the ground is safe?

It looks like the ashes wall in a modern cemetery.

Zhao Cheng had a headache, and he didn't know how to explain it to Su Mo. Why did he just think that there was a suitable piece of land, but didn't think that there was such a thing here?

Zhao Cheng slapped himself in the heart, but when he heard Su Mo's question, he had to cheer up to deal with it.

Zhao Cheng gave a wry smile, "Master Su, if this man is dead, he will naturally be buried in the ground for peace!"

He wiped his face, hiding the helplessness in his eyes, "Under normal circumstances, after death, people naturally have to go to the earth to rest. It's just that we have a custom here, that is, those who don't die well are not allowed to go to the earth. But people can't die after death." Just leave it like this, so there is this thing.”

"What do you mean?" Su Mo sounded a little uncomfortable.

Zhao Cheng pointed at the earth wall with a horsewhip, his eyes were full of sadness, "The people placed there are all people who died unexpectedly〇"

"All of them?" Su Mo's scalp was numb, so many people died unexpectedly, the probability is really high, "Could it be that someone in your father's place often has accidents?"

"No?" Zhao Cheng didn't know what to say anymore.

When most people hear this, they are almost not interested in asking further questions. On the one hand, they feel scared, and on the other hand, they feel unlucky.This Young Master Su is quite courageous.

After thinking about it, he decided to tell the truth, anyway, Hai County is like this, even if he doesn't tell, Young Master Su will know in the future, it's better to explain things clearly from the beginning.

"It wasn't an accidental death." Zhao Cheng shook his head and looked straight ahead.

Qian Cang suddenly said sullenly, "It's suicide, these people all committed suicide."

Zhao Cheng took a look at Qian Cang at this time, but he didn't object, and it was a bit broken.

"Suicide?" Su Mola left her voice, and suddenly realized that she covered her mouth again, her face turned pale, "But why?

What? "

Zhao Cheng took a deep look at Su Mo, and said in a very heavy tone, "Master Su, when you arrive in Hai County, you should also know how poor this county is. The land is difficult to cultivate, and a man with a little bit of strength should come early I went to the new pier to look for work, or went fishing, and the woman did the housework at home."

"I'm poor, tired, and bitter, and I suffer from ailments all over my body. When I was young, I relied on my good health and I was able to straighten my teeth. But when I get old, I get very bad, usually at the age of five or six. I lost my workforce〇”

Hearing this, Su Mo suddenly remembered the idea that popped up yesterday, and his bad premonition became stronger and stronger, but he still had an idea in his heart, hoping that things were not really as he thought.

However, I heard Zhao Cheng continue, "These people are old and can't do any work anymore, and they need descendants to take care of them. The family is poor, how can they support them?"

"So..." Su Mo asked with trembling lips.

"..." Zhao Cheng opened his mouth, but suddenly he didn't know what to say.

Qian Cang lowered his head, couldn't see the expression on his face clearly, his voice was flat, seemed to be emotionless, and seemed to be very depressed, "So

Because they don't want to be a burden to future generations, they think that they are old, sick, and useless, and living is a waste of food at home, so they might as well leave early to leave a way for future generations to survive. "

Having said this, Qian Cang choked up a bit, "That's how my mother went."

Su Mo didn't know what to say anymore, he just felt that his hands and feet were cold, until his bones were cold.

Zhao Cheng took over Qian Cang's words, "In our place, those who commit suicide must bear the guilt. Naturally, they can't rest in the ground, so there is this."

This kind of earth wall can be seen everywhere in Haixian County. Long holes are cut on it.

"No one cares?" As soon as the words came out, Su Mo knew that he had said something stupid.

Zhao Cheng sneered, "Don't worry, how can you control it? This is all caused by poverty, and you can't control it if you want to."

He shook his head again as he spoke, "Our adults want to take care of it, and they do, but what's the use of that? Saying anything without money is just empty talk, what others should do."

No one spoke after that, only the sound of the horse's hooves stepping on the ground and the sound of the wheels rolling over the road were heard.Soon the carriage entered another fork in the road, and the earth wall could no longer be seen, but Su Mo felt as if a huge boulder had weighed on his heart, making it difficult for him to breathe.

Seeing his complexion, Xiao Wu persuaded him in a low voice, "Su Mo, there are so many injustices in this world, you can't handle it alone... At the end of the day, Xiao Wu didn't know what to say.

"I know." Su Mo is not a person who takes care of everything, but he can't turn a blind eye to these things.It's fine if he doesn't see it, or if he doesn't have the ability.Now he has seen it, and indeed has the ability to change everything.

As he knows, there are many plants that are suitable for growth in saline-alkali land. In addition to sugar beet, there are sorghum, black locust, sand date, wolfberry, Populus euphratica, mulberry, etc. There are many, but people here don't know it.

Mulberry leaves can be used to raise silkworms, sorghum, sandy dates, and wolfberry are all economic crops, locust trees and poplars will not see results in the short term, but what about ten or decades later?

Sorghum and sand dates are not available, but he has them in his ring, and the rest of them are found in his native land, but the people here have never thought of planting these things here.

Su Mo licked his dry lips, raised his eyes and looked out of the car window, all he could see was a bald patch.Imagining this barren land, through his little by little changes, and finally the land is full of greenery, what a sense of accomplishment it would be!

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly leaned forward, and with a sound of "Woo", the carriage stopped

Because he was distracted, his body fell forward and almost fell to the ground, but it was Xiao Wu who gave him a hand, "Be careful!"

"Thank you!" Su Mo shook his head, pulling him back from fantasy to reality. All those thoughts just receded, and his rationality slowly returned, followed by a cold sweat.

His idea is good, but such a big county, if you want to transform it, it can't be done overnight, nor can he do it alone.

If he really got hotheaded and did it regardless, it would be a big move, and his various abnormalities would naturally arouse suspicion from others.What should I do if the time comes to cause a fatal disaster and affect the people around me?

He wants to help these people, and he has ways to help them, but first of all, he can only do so under the condition of not endangering the safety of himself and the people he cares about.

He is not a hero, nor is he self-sacrificing and self-sacrificing, so let's take it one step at a time!

Xiao Wu saw his face changing back and forth, and his forehead was covered with sweat, so he pulled him worriedly, "Are you all right?" "

"It's okay, I just ate a little too much in the morning, and I was bumped by the car, and I was in a panic." Su Mo came back to his senses, said with a smile, and jumped out of the carriage before Xiao Wu waited.

Xiao Wu muttered behind him.

After getting off the car, Su Mo saw the piece of land that Zhao Cheng mentioned.

The terrain here is still relatively flat, it is a big valley, there are some small hills beside it, and a small river flows along the mountain shape.

The piece of land that Zhao Cheng mentioned refers to the land under the mountain.

It is neither far nor close to the county seat. There is a natural gorge formed by two hills at the entrance, and there are mountains and mountains inside, which is very secretive.

Su Mo was very satisfied, "Is there a place name here?"

Zhao Cheng said, "No."

"Then here it is!"

Because of the birth base just now, Zhao Cheng has already made preparations, and Su Mo is ready to choose another place. Unexpectedly, Su Mo doesn't care

Even though he was only leading the way, it was not easy to walk, and it would be nice to be able to save trouble, but he persuaded him, "Master Su, why don't we choose another one?"

Although Zhao Cheng spoke vaguely, and Su Mo knew what it meant, he still shook his head, "Here it is!"

The road here is too difficult to walk, he doesn't want to bump up and down again, besides, there is nothing wrong with this place.The cemetery is also outside the gorge, so it doesn't matter.

I dare not go alone.
