My name is Zhang Lingfeng. I don’t like this name because many people like to call me Zhang Lingfeng, which makes it look like a girly name. But I asked my dad once and he told me that when I was just born, my dad
They wanted to call me Zhang Lingling, and my mother wanted to call me Zhang Fengfeng. The last person took a step back and chose Zhang Lingfeng. I immediately felt that my name was really damn good.
In this world where I have received scientific education since childhood and overturned feudal superstition, I should have been like many people, holding a lollipop in my mouth and determined to become a scientist.
But my grandfather is an out-and-out superstition. My grandfather’s name is Zhang Daosheng. It is said that our family was quite rich in the last century. However, just because my grandfather tells people’s fortunes and measures horoscopes all day long in the village, the whole village is called
Wang Goudan’s guys brought in the Red Guards and ransacked my house.
My grandfather was also imprisoned in a cowshed, but he was not given food anyway. At that time, my grandfather was in his thirties, and my father was a bigger kid. The two of them almost starved to death.
That Wang Goudan was also an extremist. It was common for him to humiliate my grandfather whenever he had nothing to do. He peed on his face and so on. At that time, no one felt that my grandfather was pitiful. On the contrary, they felt that my grandfather had brought all the blame on himself.
At that time, the village chief led the people in the village to open up wasteland and plow the fields around the village, but strange things happened.
To the east of the village is a mass grave. People used to stay away from it. Later, because they wanted to overthrow feudal superstition and no one could be afraid of ghosts, the village chief organized five young men to dig out the mass grave.
Once again, I want to turn that area into farmland.
My grandfather went to the village chief at that time and told him that the mass grave was a place where evil spirits gathered in the village. It was built by a Feng Shui master in the past and should not be touched. When the village chief heard this, he scolded my grandfather.
Finally, he kicked me twice.
The first three days were fine. On the evening of the fourth day, these five people dug out a blood-red coffin. At that time, Wang Goudan became a team leader because he reported on my grandfather, so he asked the other four companions to open it.
coffin, and then burn the bones inside.
When the four people opened the coffin, they were shocked. Inside the coffin was a complete corpse. The corpse was wearing an official robe from the Qing Dynasty. The corpse was not rotten at all, but looked a little fresh.
Although it was said that it was about overthrowing feudal superstition, everyone was still afraid of this thing. It was getting late at that time, so Wang Goudan asked them to seal the coffin and said that they would deal with it tomorrow. The five of them ran back to the village dejectedly.
Back in the village, when the village chief heard about this, he immediately became angry and said that we were responding to Chairman Mao's call. How could we be afraid of those monsters? Then the village chief took a dozen strong men and ran back to the mass grave, wanting to take the lead in burning it.
Get rid of this weird corpse.
As soon as everyone returned, they opened the coffin and saw that it was empty and the body was missing.
The village chief scolded Wang Goudan and the others for lying. Wang Goudan and the others were also confused and could only say that they had probably seen it wrong.
Everyone returned to the village to rest. The next morning, the two people who dug out the coffins yesterday were dead. They died in a very miserable manner. There was no blood in their bodies, and they were as shriveled as mummies.
At that time, some people asked whether it was haunted, and the village chief scolded us that we must believe in science.
On the morning of the third day, except Wang Goudan, the other two people who dug out the coffin also died in the same appearance.
Now the village was in an uproar. No one believed it was an accident. Even the village chief, who claimed to believe in science, was confused.
Wang Goudanren was also scared. This news reached the ears of my grandfather who was still in the cowshed at that time. My grandfather came out to find the village chief and said that it was a corpse evil.
At that time, the village chief kicked my grandfather's butt twice and cursed: "You are still promoting feudal superstition. If you believe it or not, I will beat you to death."
The village chief was really not joking. In that chaotic era, killing a person who promoted feudal superstition was really nothing.
When my grandfather heard this, he suddenly fell silent and stopped talking. But Wang Goudan was scared, knelt down and grabbed my grandfather's thigh and said, "Old man Zhang, save me."
My grandfather and my father lived in the cowshed every day because of this bastard. If it were me, I would have kicked this bastard to death. Who knows, but my grandfather nodded and whispered next to Wang Goudan:
"At ten o'clock in the evening, bring cinnabar pen and ink, yellow paper, and glutinous rice to the cowshed to find me, otherwise you will definitely die tonight."
"Remember, one bowl of glutinous rice is raw and the other bowl is cooked." After saying this, my grandfather took my dad back to the cowshed.
At about ten o'clock in the evening, Wang Goudan took the things to the cowshed, found my grandfather, and gave the things to my grandfather.
My grandfather didn't care about anything else. He took the bowl of cooked glutinous rice and quickly handed it to my dad to eat. They could only eat one meal a day, and it was rotten rice that they had to go to someone else's house.
My dad was also starving and ate it all in two bites. My grandpa smiled and patted his butt and asked him to stay at the village chief's house for one night. Although my grandpa lived in a cowshed, my dad was a child after all.
The other people there still take good care of him.
As soon as my dad left, Wang Goudan quickly knelt down and asked: "Old man Zhang, please save me quickly."
"I have long said that the land cannot be moved. If you don't believe it, don't worry. At twelve o'clock tonight, the zombie will definitely come to you." My grandfather said and asked Wang Goudan to take off his shirt and lie down on the ground.
Then he took out a cinnabar pen and drew a talisman on his chest.
"This talisman can keep you safe. Just stay here and wait for the zombie to come over." After my grandfather finished speaking, he took out the cinnabar brush and started drawing the talisman.
Talismans were plastered all over the cowshed. At twelve o'clock in the evening, the old cow in the cowshed suddenly began to stir uneasily.
The cowshed is at the southernmost part of the village. A figure skipping outside the village came towards the cowshed.
The whole body of this corpse demon has become extremely rotten. It is no longer as fresh as when it was first dug out. A fishy smell comes from this corpse demon.
Wang Goudan was so frightened that urine leaked out of his crotch.
When my grandfather saw it, he rushed out with the talisman and started fighting with the corpse. The fight was not clear because Wang Goudan didn't see it. He only knew that there was a corpse next to the cowshed the next day.
The rotting corpses stank to the sky.
Wang Goudan was also frightened and fainted. As for my grandfather, there was also a long wound on his chest.
When the village chief came the next day, he strictly prohibited anyone from mentioning the matter, and then had people carry the body to a mass grave and burn it.
It is said that the human heart grows from flesh. My grandfather and my father lived in a cowshed because of Wang Goudan. Later, Wang Goudan even humiliated my grandfather. Even so, my grandfather still saved his life, but the body was burned.
The next day, Wang Goudan went to the county seat to find another Red Guard, saying that my grandfather continued to promote feudal superstition.
As a result, my grandfather and my father were arrested and paraded through the county town. This bastard was approved to join the Red Guards because of his meritorious service in repeatedly reporting.
My grandfather's chest was originally injured by a zombie. After being paraded through the streets, he became even more frail. Within half a month, he contracted a serious illness and died.
When he died, he left a book to my dad and said that if he should study this book carefully, he would benefit a lot from it in the future.
These things are the stories my dad told me since I was a child. I only read these things as stories since I was a child. After all, the things in this story are too mysterious.
In my memory, my father was very kind to me and never scolded me. Even when I peeked at Li Erya from next door taking a bath, my father praised me and said that he was promising and it would be best to bring him a daughter-in-law as soon as possible.
, because of this, my dad even asked my mom to scold me.
The first time I was beaten was when I was sixteen years old. I came home from school and accidentally saw a yellowed book in my dad's drawer. The book was very worn and had a mountain character on the outside.
My father caught me and gave me a beating without saying anything. After my mother came back, she told me that this book was the one left by my grandfather.
I was confused at that time. Could it be that the stories my dad told me when I was young were true? Otherwise, how could this book exist?
Later, I would secretly look through this book when I had nothing to do, and found that this book actually talked about some methods of catching ghosts and drawing talismans.
It wasn’t until I was seventeen years old and in my second year of high school that my school organized a trip to the ancient city of Phoenix, and I discovered that there really are things in the world that science cannot explain.
