Chapter 114 Old House

I coaxed me, who was still a child, and in a blink of an eye, the blind old man had been dead for ten years.

"Blind grandpa, I'm back."

I murmured to myself, knowing that no one would respond to me again.

And now I am a child without a home.

I didn't clean up the house carefully, and sent my mobile phone to the village chief's house to charge. I used my mobile phone as a flashlight for half a night last night.

My mobile phone is out of power and turned off. I am afraid that someone will look for me, so I have to find a place to charge my mobile phone.

As for my house, the power has been cut off for several years. It's not enough to clean up now.

The village chief didn't expect me to come back suddenly. He charged my mobile phone for me and told me without hesitation.

"The Li family is not right recently. His youngest son is weird. Don't go there. Just come to me if you have anything."

I nodded, but agreed, and didn't mention that I had been to the Li family in the middle of the night last night.

If the village chief knew about this, he would inevitably give me a lecture.

I turned around and went to the store to buy yellow paper, cigarettes and alcohol, and took these things directly to the mountain. I haven't come back many times in these years.

But I still remember clearly where the blind old man's grave is.

I don't know if the old man will blame me, a little white-eyed wolf, for not coming back to see him in these years.

When I have dealt with the matter of the last bus of No. 14, I will come back and marry a good wife, and let the blind old man be happy for me.

Compared with the several graves around, the blind old man's grave is the most desolate, and it looks like it is all weeds.

I also noticed that there is a new grave not far away.

It looks like an old man in the village, and there are dead ones, and I don't know whose family it is.

After burning paper for the blind old man, I took out a few cigarettes from the cigarette box and went to the new grave.

I didn't expect the words written on the tombstone to surprise me.

At midnight yesterday, I also saw Uncle Li, the old yellow-skinned man, and Li Xiangdong.

And this new grave told me one thing, Uncle Li has passed away and is buried here.

If Uncle Li had not passed away, Li Xiangdong would not have dared to dig a grave for Uncle Li and erect a tombstone.

Could it be that there was something wrong with the scene I saw last night?

I walked down the mountain in a daze, and not long after I walked, I felt a place on my back, which was extremely hot.

If I remember correctly, there was a seal left for me by the City God in that place.

So there was a ghost following me, and it was planning to do something bad to me.

I was half disappointed, pretending to be calm, and walked down the mountain slowly.

When I reached the foot of the mountain and saw people coming and going, I was relieved.

I ran to the village chief's house and wanted to ask for clarification.

After telling the village chief what I saw yesterday, I saw a rare solemnity on his face.

"Su family kid, leave Maoxi County before dark today, and don't come back for a year or two. If I knew you would come back last night, I would have told you in advance. Don't get involved with the Li family now."

I don't quite understand why the village chief said this, but from what I experienced last night, there must be something wrong with the Li family, or a big problem.

I was about to ask what was going on with the Li family when I was pushed out by the village chief. He looked very impatient.

"Go back and pack your things, and leave the village soon. You kid, you must listen to me."

I was pushed out by the village chief, and then the door was closed. It seemed that no matter how much I said, I would not be let in.

Shaking my head, I was also helpless. I walked back to my yard and saw Li Xiangdong waiting at the door.

I didn't want to talk to him much at this moment. Anyway, the Li family is a big trouble now, and I have to leave quickly, so it's better not to ask.

I returned the sickle to Li Xiangdong and didn't say anything more to him.

Seeing him hesitate to speak, I simply pretended to look back at the things in the yard to avoid him from being pitiful.

I was moved with sympathy again, and then I had to get involved in these things beyond my ability.

I still haven't found out where the strange phone call last night came from.

If I meddle in other people's business again, I'm afraid I will receive such a call again.

Li Xiangdong saw that I didn't want to pay attention to him, and stood behind me for a long time. Finally, he said inexplicably, "Brother Su, leave quickly if you are okay, don't come back, never come back again."

Then he ran back to Li's house with a sickle. I don't know why he told me such a sentence, which is almost the same as what the village chief wanted to express.

Looking at his appearance just now, he remembered what happened last night, but he couldn't explain it to me.

It is also possible that I didn't give him a chance to explain?

I wanted to chase him and ask clearly, but was persuaded by the strange phone call.

Forgive me for being a selfish person. When I can't protect myself, I really can't help others.

Remembering the main purpose of my return, I opened the door of the cellar to get rid of the dull smell inside.

Climbing in from the ladder, I saw a soil basket in the corner of the cellar.

I took out the soil basket and saw a small black hammer inside.

The small hammer looked unremarkable, but it gave me an inexplicable sense of security.

Putting the small hammer in my trouser pocket, I went under the pot on the stove and took out a small bundle.

This time the thing was a bit bigger, it was an incense burner, and it looked a bit old.

I don’t know what the use of these two things is, but the blind old man hinted in his dream that I would come back to get them, so they must be useful.

After getting these two things, I suddenly had an intuition in my heart. I felt that I could meet the blind old man again one day in the future.

The idea that a dead person cannot be resurrected is ridiculous, but I firmly believe that I will definitely meet him!

After getting these two things, I didn't care about the situation in the house and went directly to the village chief's house with my bag.

I don’t know what happened last night when Master Lin took the car out for me.

If I stay here for two more days, if something happens again, it won't be worth the loss.

Knowing that I wanted to pack my things and leave the village, the village chief specially sent me to the entrance of the village and watched me get on the bus to Maoxi County, and then I returned to the village with peace of mind.

Sitting in the car, I clearly felt that everyone around me was rejecting me, as if everyone was subconsciously moving away from me.

This rejection is not based on disgust, but on fear.

Who can I offend after not returning to the village for so long?

Even if you offend someone, you won't offend a whole car of people.

So what exactly are they rejecting? I wanted to get close to the uncle next to me, but I didn't expect that I hadn't opened my mouth to speak.

The uncle was so frightened that he stood up and sat somewhere else.
