Chapter 4006 Past
"Tonight is the Ghost Festival, a day when the gates of hell are wide open. Places like Jiangjiapo have never been very clean, so it is not unusual for you to encounter dirty things there." Old Yangtou said.
"I'm afraid your eldest brother has protected you, otherwise you will be in big trouble." Old Yangtou continued.
Hearing this, Yang Huaming put his hands on his shoulders and looked around nervously, "Isn't the eldest brother following me back? What should I do?"
Old Yang Touye also He looked around and said: "He is your eldest brother. It doesn't matter if he comes back to take a look. Wait until tomorrow for you to go to Shenpo Li's place and help ask what's going on."
"Your eldest brother said he doesn't have enough money down there. If you burn more for him when the time comes, you'll probably be in peace." He added.
Here, Mrs. Tan said: "Qing'er, have you seen the baby that Li Xiuxin gave birth to? Doesn't the baby look strange?"
Yang Ruoqing thought about it carefully, He said truthfully: "Except for being smaller than other newborns, everything else is fine. His facial features are all in good shape so far. It’s complete, but I don’t know what’s inside the internal organs.”
Tan said: “This was born on the Ghost Festival, these horoscopes...that’s all, you can go to Goddess Li’s place tomorrow and take care of it.” Let’s ask about this too.”
After struggling for so long, everyone has dispersed.
Yang Huazhong, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang stopped by and returned home together.
At the door of the house, Yang Ruoqing said to Yang Huazhong: "My mother is timid. Dad, please don't tell my mother about finding the fourth uncle and the fourth aunt in Jiangjiapo tonight. I'm worried that she will be too scared to sleep at night. ."
Yang Huazhong smiled honestly and said, "Don't worry. Well, if you don’t tell me, I will know.”
Yang Ruoqing curled her lips and said, “Then we will go back and have a rest early.”
Yang Huazhong nodded, although he knew that Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang is an adult, and Luo Fengtang is a general with an evil aura.
It was he who rescued Yang Huaming and his wife from Jiangjiapo, but in Yang Huazhong's eyes, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang were his children. As a father, he insisted on watching the young couple enter the yard before he turned around and went home.
After returning home, she took a comfortable hot bath to wash away her fatigue. When she put on loose and breathable pajamas and lay down on the bed, Yang Ruoqing felt completely sleepless.
Luo Fengtang also went to bed and saw her lying there, holding a pillow in her arms, biting her lip slightly, looking thoughtful.
He couldn't help but raise his hand and pinch her nose gently, "What are you thinking about? So absorbed?"
Yang Ruoqing looked up at him: "Jiang Jiapo is really that evil. In the past, when you were a hunter, you were always in the mountains, sometimes at night. Have you ever encountered anything weird like tonight?"
Luo Fengtang thought about it carefully and shook his head without hesitation.
“It’s strange to say that everyone talks about this and that in Mianniu Mountain, but I have never encountered anything like that.”
“But, about this I have heard a lot of strange things, many of which were told to me by hunters from other villages," Luo Fengtang said.
When he was a hunter in the past, he did not move around or interact with the people in the village, but when hunting in the mountains, he became familiar with the hunters in other villages. Sometimes he met them in the mountains. While sitting together to rest, they would talk about their experiences in the mountains to kill the boredom.
"There is one, about Jiang Jiapo. Do you want to listen?" he asked again.
Yang Ruoqing nodded repeatedly: "If you want to listen, tell me quickly."
She changed her posture to listen to the story, lying on her side, one arm supporting the side of her face, looking at Luo Fengtang with bright eyes . Luo Fengtang smiled faintly and said: "I heard that the Jiangjiapo where we found the fourth uncle and the fourth aunt tonight did have such a small mountain village a long time ago."
"Moreover, it is said There used to be a famous person in that village. This so-called famous person seemed to be a high official or something.” It’s my hometown,”
"I originally thought that I would live a simple life in this mountain village, but I didn't expect that on a heavy rainy night, a group of officers and soldiers secretly sneaked into Jiangjiapo and killed all the men, women, old and young in the village, including the livestock. Let it go!" he said.
“It’s too cruel to massacre the village on a rainy night!” Yang Ruoqing frowned.
This reminded her of what happened to Xiaoyu. Only those who have experienced it personally can understand this feeling of suddenly having nothing, indescribable anger and despair!
“Go on,” Yang Ruoqing said.
Luo Fengtang nodded and continued: "A good village suddenly disappeared overnight. At that time, it was said that it caused a lot of sensation in these ten miles and eight villages, because we, the people in these ten miles and eight villages, , most of them are related.”
"This matter could not be found out, and the government at that time just went through the motions and ignored it. Later, as the years went by, fewer and fewer people could remember what happened in Jiangjiapo and the existence of this village."< br>
“When the last group of people who saw Jiang Jiapo’s existence grew old , passed away, people behind him gradually forgot about this village. Even if I tell you about Jiang Jiapo now, I heard it from somewhere else."
"And the one who told me about it. Orion also heard it from somewhere else, and I don’t know how many twists and turns it took,” he said.
Yang Ruoqing sighed and said with emotion: "Time is really like a rag. No matter how colorful a stroke was at the beginning, it will be gradually wiped away until no trace is left in the end. It’s even as if it has never existed.”
Luo Fengtang said: “Isn’t it true? There’s no way to know whether it’s true or false!”
"There is another hunter who also told me a strange thing. If you are not sleepy, can I tell you again?" He asked again.
Yang Ruoqing blinked, "Go to sleep after listening."
Luo Fengtang said: "It's the same place where we found your fourth uncle and aunt tonight. Many years ago, it was said that there was a butcher at night We went to have a drink somewhere else and then went back to the village and passed by there.”
“It was in the winter months. Every household is preparing to celebrate the New Year, everything is very lively, and the butcher is very brave."
"That night he drank some wine and passed by that area, and met several strangers on the road. Taking the bench to Jiangjiapo, he curiously asked those people what they were doing.”
"Those people said that a big opera was being performed in the village over there. When the butcher heard this, he got excited. He quickly followed them to listen to the opera."
"When we got to the place, a stage was actually set up. There were so many people, so lively.”
“He was also listening in the crowd, and when he was getting excited, an old woman patted him on the shoulder and said. , you damn kid, why are you here? Go back, go back!”
“When he saw it, he was almost scared to death. The old woman urging him to leave was his deceased grandmother. ! ”
“Looking at the people watching the show, many of them were people from their village, but they have all been dead for several years...”
