"I am in a courtyard. This courtyard is decorated in an ancient style, with ancient wells and millstones..."
Chen Fuhai was narrating, and at Fang Ming's signal, Chen Fuhai's grandson also took a pen and paper and began to memorize what his grandfather had said.
"There are two flower beds and an almond tree. I saw a person, eh..."
Chen Fuhai's voice suddenly rose because he saw an old friend walking towards him. A man in his thirties who looked like an ancient scholar was walking towards him, holding a kettle in his hand.
"This... what I saw was an ancient man. He walked towards me with a kettle and poured the water in the kettle onto me."
Hearing Chen Fuhai's words, everyone present looked surprised, except Fang Ming, whose expression did not change and said: "Don't be surprised, everything you see now is what Ziteng has seen before. That scholar should
He is the first owner of Wisteria."
If Chen Fuhai's words previously only surprised everyone, but when Fang Ming explained it, the people at the scene were shocked, because this matter seemed to them to be a fantasy. If they didn't know that Chen Fuhai could not lie, if it were someone else,
They all wondered if it was a double act with Fang Ming.
"The scholar finished pouring water and then left..."
In the following time, Chen Fuhai saw the scholar many times. In addition to the scholar, other people appeared occasionally. These were the scholar's friends. Later, Chen Fuhai also knew the scholar from the conversation between the scholar and his friend in the yard.
of everything.
"The scholar is a failed scholar. He only has the reputation of being a scholar. He was forced to leave his hometown because of a rebellion in his hometown and came to a different place to work as a teacher in a private school. He lived in poverty and was never married."
In the scene that Chen Fuhai saw, there was a gap between the speed of time passing and the speed of reality. Moreover, the scene only showed the scene when the scholar appeared. Once the scholar left, the scene would jump to the scene where the scholar appeared next time. Chen Fuhai also discovered that the scholar
I like wisteria very much and have been dependent on it for almost my whole life.
"This wisteria is the only thing the scholar brought from his hometown. For him, the wisteria represents his hometown and is what he uses to relieve his homesickness."
"The scholar fell ill and lay in bed for three months. He couldn't make it through. Because he had no relatives, the families of his students found a piece of land for him and buried him there. As for Wisteria, his students
Knowing that my husband likes wisteria the most, I transplanted the wisteria on the tomb so that the wisteria can keep my husband company and not be so lonely."
"Remember where the tomb is buried and see if there is anything special about the terrain." Fang Ming's voice appeared again.
"The tomb is on a hill outside the village. It's nothing special. However, there is a small river at the foot of the hill directly in front of the tomb. The tomb is about a hundred meters away from the small river. Oh yes, there is a bamboo forest to the left of the tomb."
"Well, okay, it's over."
After Fang Ming took Chen Fuhai's hand away from the wisteria, Chen Fuhai shook his body for a moment, and then looked at everyone with a dazed and confused look. Apparently, he had not yet woken up from the previous scene.
"Did I really see this wisteria and the life of its first owner just now?"
Facing Chen Fuhai's uncertain inquiry, Fang Ming nodded and replied: "Yes, what you just saw was the life of this wisteria and its first owner, and now I finally understand
, where is the problem.”
To untie the bell, the person who tied the bell must be tied. Now Fang Ming knew how to untie the bell.
"The reason why Wisteria behaves against subsequent owners is because it is full of anger. It hates the person who caused it to be separated from its first owner, that is, all subsequent owners."
Because he knew the source of the problem, Fang Ming had a smile on his face. After seeing everyone's puzzled expressions, he continued to explain: "For this wisteria, it grew up with its first owner, and the first owner also
That scholar took good care of it. In the eyes of the scholar, the wisteria is the sustenance of homesickness, but for the wisteria, the scholar is also its everything."
"Even if the scholar is dead, Wisteria is buried on the scholar's grave, which can be regarded as dependent on life and death. However, this connection has been destroyed, and the destroyer should be Wisteria's second owner. This is the second owner of Wisteria.
The second owner probably saw the wisteria growing beautifully, so he dug it up and took it away."
After Fang Ming's explanation, everyone understood the reason.
Wisteria and the scholar have a special relationship, just like lovers, they are dependent on each other in life and death, they are companions in life, and share the same hole in death. But because the people behind them thought that the wisteria looked good, they took the wisteria away from the scholar's grave. This is like
It's like breaking up a pair of lovers.
Wisteria has a spirit, so naturally it is not willing to accept it, so it takes revenge on the masters behind it, because in Wisteria's heart, it is these people who have caused it to be unable to continue to be with the scholar.
"Wisteria has not yet fully developed intelligence, but it still has a little bit of spirituality, so everything it does is based on its instincts, and it doesn't know that so many subsequent owners don't know its story."
"So, it is very simple to solve this matter. Just find the scholar's grave, then send the wisteria back and bury it on the scholar's grave again."
The solution is easy to say, but difficult to say. The difficulty lies in whether the scholar's grave can be found.
"Mr. Chen, I just asked you to write down the terrain features of the grave so that you can find the scholar's grave. I think you can find the village where the scholar is buried. Then we can search based on this village."
"I know that village. It's over there in Jiashan County. I've been there before and read the local chronicles there. I know there is such a village."
Chen Fuhai's words made Fang Ming stunned for a moment, because he did not expect such a coincidence. The scholar was actually in Jiashan. He had thought that it would take a while to find the village. After all, the village existed hundreds of years ago.
, many of them have been lost in the dust of history.
"Now that you have found the location of the village, you just need to find the scholar's grave. Then burn some paper for the scholar's grave and replant the wisteria there. This matter will be solved."
Hearing Fang Ming's words, Chen Fuhai's grandson showed a look of embarrassment on his face. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Mr. Fang, can you come with us?"
In Chen Fuhai's grandson's mind, he was really unsure about letting them deal with such a seemingly suspenseful matter by themselves. If possible, he would have brought Mr. Fang along with him.
Fang Ming frowned. To be honest, he didn't want to go, because even if it goes smoothly, it might take a day or two. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and he still has a lot to do.
Liang Zhengqiao also saw Fang Ming's frowning expression, with a thoughtful look on his old face, and glanced at Chen Fuhai again. Although he and Chen Fuhai often had quarrels with each other, they had been together for most of their lives and still had friendship.
"Jiashan is not far away. I just want to go out for a walk, so let's go together." Liang Zhengqiao spoke, looked at Fang Ming and said, "Although this old guy Chen has always been against me, if
If this old guy dies like this, then I won't be able to find anyone to argue with him in the future."
Liang Zhengqiao's words made Chen Fuhai's grandson's expression become extremely embarrassed. If it were someone else who said this, he would have stepped forward and beat that person. But when Mr. Liang said this, he could only pretend not to hear, and even more
What's more, there are still people to ask for.
Chen Fuhai's complexion was also blue and white. He had been an old rival for decades, but in the end he asked for help, which made him a little embarrassed.
However, at his age, he will not give up anything for the sake of face. Living is more important than face and anger. The older people get, the more afraid of death they become.
Fang Ming didn't say anything else. He came here today just to get rid of Ziyu's grandfather and his family. Since you keep saying this, then just be happy.
Just leave!
Liang Zhengqiao is also very resolute, but not all the Liang family will go. The Liang family only has Ziyu's grandparents and uncle's family. However, Xu Chengan also expressed curiosity and wanted to follow him. Together with Chen Fuhai and his grandson, once again
There were twelve people when we set out.
Twelve people and four cars left the community and headed towards Jiashan.
…
Jiashan is located at the junction of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai. It can be said that the location is very good, but the embarrassing thing is that the development of Jiashan is not very good. Because it is close to the magic city, real big companies will not stay here, and they will not stay here.
Precisely because it is close to the Magic City, real estate and land are not cheap, and some labor-intensive factories will not settle here.
An hour later, the motorcade arrived at Xitang Town, Jiashan, which is an ancient town and a famous tourist attraction with an endless stream of tourists.
However, Fang Ming and his party did not enter the ancient town. Instead, they drove to a small mountain village on the edge of the ancient town and stopped.
"This is the village where the scholar was."
Chen Fuhai has been here before, but this time after getting off the car, he frowned slightly when he looked at the surrounding scene. Everything here has changed drastically from when he came here. As for the scholar in his memory,
There is no overlap at all in the environment.
"The creek is still there, but in front of this creek..."
Chen Fuhai and his party found the creek along the way. However, a hundred meters in front of the creek, there was indeed a hilltop. However, that place is now a resort.
Seeing the resort, everyone's heart skipped a beat, because what everyone was most afraid of was that the scholar's grave was gone.
Over the past two hundred years, especially with the development and construction of modernization, many small hills cannot be preserved at all. They are being developed everywhere. The scholar has no descendants. If a developer develops this land,
The grave will definitely be leveled.
The group of people were all dumbfounded. Even Chen Fuhai had determined the specific location of the scholar's grave based on the pictures he saw, but that place was now a pool and the grave was gone.
