But why did the ghost of the old lady’s mother haunt the unrelated Mr. Leng? But I soon figured it out. So I called Hu Zongren and Mr. Leng aside and told him that I basically understood the matter.
Well, if I guessed correctly, the old lady moved to the city after the demolition of her hometown, so she didn’t go back to pay homage to her mother’s grave for many years. This can be proven by the deserted look in front of the grave when we first saw it. Later generations
A grave that is still alive but has no descendants to worship it is very ominous, and it is even said that it is not a good thing for the living and the dead. Under normal circumstances, such descendants will be called unworthy descendants, and the deceased will be called an unworthy descendant because of his death.
It is very easy to worship someone with incense and become angry and turn into a ghost.
Although this kind of ghost may not harm people because it has not been worshiped, especially not its own family members. But usually we have encountered such a situation, that is, if the children are too busy to visit the elderly
, usually the old man can't sit still and runs to his children's home to see his children. This must be the case with this ghost old lady. That is to say, as early as the old lady was hit by Mr. Leng, or even earlier, this
The ghost of the ghost old lady was already following the old lady, but it didn't show it and no one knew about it.
And later when Mr. Leng bumped into the old lady, for the ghost old lady at this moment, no matter whether it was caused by the old lady crossing the road by herself, her anger was exactly the same as that of the woman in the room.
No matter you just hit someone, I won't let you run away no matter what I say. This is why Mr. Leng came home every night after that. When he passed the hilltop, an old man crossing the road appeared.
The ghost of the wife.
Hu Zongren asked me, was it purely a coincidence that it appeared in that place? If Mr. Leng hadn't lived in Baishiyi, wouldn't it have appeared? I nodded and said, I was also guessing, it was probably a coincidence.
.Because I consider that Mr. Leng meets him at the same place at different times every night. This requires a certain opportunity. The most likely possibility is that there is something about the existence of this ghost nearby. And ghosts are usually not seen by people.
, if a ghost appears, it is an adventure that does not comply with the rules. Just like if a man appears in a women's restroom or a women's bathhouse, he will be attacked by the people around him. This is why we have been constantly
The reason for taking away the ghosts who broke into our world and around us. I went on to say that the tomb is nearby. This is like giving the ghost old lady the courage to become a powerful one in the nearby area.
The ghost is so powerful that it can even grab your neck and push you into the middle of the road.
After saying that, I pointed at Hu Zongren.
I explained that it was like a child who would run home when he was wronged, and when he got home, no matter how dangerous the outside world was, he would feel at ease and his courage would increase. When we inspected the two tombs, another
The one with a tombstone, that is, the old lady's uncle's grave was quiet and quiet, with no movement at all. This means that her uncle may have passed away peacefully many years ago, and now he is looking for it, but only his soul can be found.
Ke Xun. But this old lady is different. Judging from the shape of the tomb, she was almost buried in a hurry. She didn’t even erect a tombstone. Hu Zongren interrupted me and said, but if some families are relatively poor, it is normal not to erect a tombstone.
Yeah, in that era, some people just threw them on the roadside when they died. It was already very good to dig a hole and bury them. I shook my head and said, you haven’t noticed this, it’s the grave of Zhao Manting next to it.
.
I said that the old lady’s great uncle’s grave has a monument. And the old lady just now said that the great uncle and her mother restored contact a few years before her mother passed away. And have you noticed that the two
Although one tomb has a monument and the other does not, judging from the degree of weathering, the time when they were buried should not be very far apart, that is, less than ten years. I told Hu Zongren that if Zhao Manting died in 1990
Yes, then push forward 10 years, that is, 1980, the era when you and I were born. In Chongqing of that era, it was a Tangkou-style town like Baishiyi. How could it be possible to have money to build tombs, but not
No money to erect a monument?
Hu Zongren stopped talking. I then told him that there was only one possibility, that is, when the old lady's mother was buried, they thought that this area would not be occupied by anyone else but their own mother, so they did not erect a monument.
It further proves that the road we found yesterday, from the bamboo forest to the hilltop, is very likely that the old lady’s natal family lived there, and that area was also the area that was demolished when the highway was originally built.
.In fact, it is very likely that the old lady thought that the government was going to demolish it and lost money. The money also included her mother's grave on the hill. Unexpectedly, that piece of land was preserved. Not only that, but a new one was built.
The old lady herself has not gone back to pay homage to her mother for many years.
Hu Zongren said, So, this is a misunderstanding? Then it is a simple family affection to be entangled with Mr. Leng. He feels that his child has been bullied and wants to vent his anger on his behalf? I said that although this sounds a bit absurd,
But I must tell you that this is the most reasonable explanation I can think of at the moment. But I paused and said, of course, this is still my guess. If we want to really prove it, we need to bring the old lady to the incident.
In this place, let the old lady admit her mistake and apologize to her mother. If the ghost at the scene is relieved, then it proves that my guess is correct. If we go to send the soul at this time, it must be much better than the hard one. Besides,
, we both suffered a lot just yesterday, if we try hard, it may not work.
At this time, Mr. Leng actually burst out laughing. Hu Zongren asked him unhappily, what are you laughing at? The old lady said, it's okay, she just thinks that everyone has an unknown story, and every family has something that is hard to tell.
Experience. I thought that I bumped into a ghost because I bumped into someone else and suffered retribution. Unexpectedly, the cause of all this was actually because I was unlucky and bumped into an old lady who was followed by the ghost of my mother.
Although we know that what Mr. Leng said is true, he still has to be responsible for his mistake and bumping into others. This is a different matter. So after discussing how to talk to the old lady, Hu Zongren decided to let Mr. Leng call the woman first.
Go outside for a while so that we can communicate this matter directly with the old lady. After all, her foot was injured. Although the doctor said that she can go home for recuperation long ago, considering that she is so old, we still have to speak verbally.
It has to be a little gentler.
So I tried my best to tell the old lady very implicitly without irritating her, although your injury this time has nothing to do with this incident, but because of this incident, Mr. Leng was haunted by the ghost of your mother.
, and the reason why your mother's ghost appears is because you stopped offering incense in your early years.
Even so, the old lady was still surprised. She was an older person, and she still had no doubts about my career. After all, people know their destiny when they get older. But she kept emphasizing to me that it was because I had taken possession of my career.
I couldn't go back to worship, so I set up a mourning hall for my mother at home. I shook my head and said to her, that actually doesn't help much, because your mother was buried in the ground, and her whole body was under the soil, so in this way
In this case, you can only show your descendants' filial piety by worshiping in front of the grave. However, you misunderstood that the government would occupy your mother's grave together with it, so you can be forgiven. The old lady said that this was the case.
Ah, because I reported my situation to the government when the land was acquired. The government said that all the graves within the demolition area would be moved to another cemetery. That cemetery is still under construction. I have been waiting for it all these years.
They were repaired, but who knew, they didn’t even get there!
As the old lady spoke, her eyes were full of regret. She said that if she had known this earlier, she would definitely have gone back to worship every year in these years. After saying that, she started sobbing. I held the old lady's hand and said,
It's not too late now, I just hope you can come with us to give your mother a break, so that we can send your mother's soul away. Otherwise, if you wander around in the world, you will become a lonely ghost sooner or later.
The old lady nodded without any hesitation, not feeling uneasy because she was about to face the ghost of her mother.
So I briefly told her daughter about the situation, but of course I didn’t tell her our true occupation or where we were going. She didn’t seem to object. That afternoon, Mr. Leng and I drove towards that place in two cars.
go.
We didn’t stop at the gas station this time, because it was too far to walk and the old lady’s legs were inconvenient. So we stayed near the guardrail. After I detected the agility, I asked the old lady to help Gui Lao
I was too apologetic, saying that it was not that I didn’t come to worship, but that I thought I had nowhere to worship. I felt a little sad because many old tombs were destroyed due to construction and excavation. When future generations want to worship,
Only to find that not even a bone was left.
In fact, just as I guessed, there may be some changes in the details, but the general direction is still correct. When Hu Zongren and I climbed over the guardrail, leaving Mr. Leng, Zhao Jing and the old lady watching the car on the side of the road, we continued
Once I climbed the mountain and walked to the edge of two graves. I measured that Ling Dong had become very gentle, and even no longer had the hostility towards Hu Zongren and me. I knew that this was the time to take action.
Hu Zongren stopped me and said don't worry, and asked me to offer incense sticks to the old man. So I stood aside while Hu Zongren squatted in front of the grave, pulled out the weeds, and used a candle stick to loosen the soil underneath a little.
, then lit incense and candles, and muttered something. As for what he said, I have no way of knowing. He was probably apologizing for his rude behavior the previous night. When the stick of incense was burned, the money and paper were also burned.
After talking for a while, Hu Zongren said to me, now we can take action, do you do it or do I do it? I thought about it and said, I should do it. After all, you have a holiday.
So in a very smooth and safe situation, I gave away the soul of this ghost old lady, giving it away cleanly, just like her elder brother next to me.
After returning to the roadside, we decided to send the old lady back to the hospital first. Now that the matter was resolved, she could almost be discharged from the hospital. How to solve the remaining compensation issues is beyond my control. But Hu Zongren and I were returning
After I got to the hospital and collected the commission, I told the old lady’s daughter, your grandmother’s grave has no tombstone. Such a grave is not good for your descendants. The ancestors are all nameless, so how can the descendants be better off?
?
The implication was that she was asked to erect a tombstone for her grandmother.
When we left the hospital ward, I looked back and saw the old lady waving goodbye to us, with a trace of tears in the corners of her eyes.
