The middle-aged man was a little dazed when he heard Xiao Yu call him Uncle Li. He thought for a long time, but still couldn't figure out the reason. After all, Xiao Yu was too young when he left, and he was not a member of his family. Moreover, more than ten years later,
It's normal not to remember.
"Little master, are you..." the man asked in confusion.
"Uncle Li, I am Xiao Yu."
"Xiao Yu?" When the man heard the name, he frowned. After looking Xiao Yu up and down for a while, his eyes suddenly lit up and he said, "You are the grandson of the old god. Are you Xiao Yu?"
Seeing that the other party remembered him, Xiao Yu also said happily, "Yes...Uncle Li, it's me."
"Oh... I haven't seen him in the past ten years, and he's grown so tall. He's such a handsome guy, haha." The man took two steps forward, pulled Xiao Yu and continued, "Let's go to the room and ask for some masters. Please come in quickly."
"Oh, the boy who ate candied haws in the past is now taller than me. I am really old."
Uncle Li seemed to be in disbelief. After entering, he looked Xiao Yu up and down for a while, and then asked his wife to make tea.
"Uncle Li is not bad. When I left, you were still single. I didn't expect you to have two children now and build a house. I'm so happy." Xiao Yu looked at a family photo on the wall and said with a smile.
"Hey, you kid, you are getting poorer and poorer! By the way, stay and eat. I will kill a big rooster in the afternoon and give you the head to eat. The more you eat, the smarter you will become."
"Then you're welcome. I haven't eaten at Uncle Li's place for more than ten years. I want to come back with a good meal today."
"good….".
Uncle Li said happily, then looked at Lao Bai and Taoist Shi and said, "Two masters, do you have taboos?"
"Fine and wine have passed through the intestines, so just do whatever you want," Lao Bai said without any politeness at all. As for Taoist Master Shi, he had no taboos, so the meal in the evening was settled.
"Uncle Li, why did you build your house here? I remember your house is at the end of the village, isn't it?" Xiao Yu asked with a smile while holding a glass of water.
Xiao Yu remembered that when he left, he didn't say to whom the house would be handed over. Did the village chief decide on his own initiative to sell the house to Uncle Li?
Hearing Xiao Yu ask this question, the middle-aged man immediately said sheepishly, "Hey, after you left, this place has been empty. As you know, they are all mud houses, no one lives in them, and they collapsed in two years! Add this
It was at the head of the village, so I asked the village chief to change it."
"Although it is your family's house, I can't find you, so...".
Seeing the embarrassment on the other party's face, Xiao Yu hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Uncle Li, it's okay. It's a good thing that you can build the house here. At least I will have a place to eat when I come back. If you didn't build it, it would probably be turned into a garbage dump now."
".
Although Xiao Yu has memories of this place, he doesn't want to build a house here yet, and there is no need! Moreover, after the gate of Maoshan Mountain is opened, he will move his grandfather's bones to Maoshan. For him, this place is just a
Just a few more thoughts.
Seeing that Xiao Yu didn't pursue the matter, the man immediately said with great joy, "Okay, you guys have tea first, I'll go buy something and come back, let's all have a drink in the evening! By the way, are you coming back to visit the grave?"
Xiao Yu has come back once in more than ten years. No matter who you are, you will think that he must have come back to visit the grave. After all, the grave of the old immortal is at the back of the village. Everyone, young and old, knows that now that his grandson is back, what else can he do besides visiting the grave?
Xiao Yu nodded noncommittally and said, "Well, come back and have a look."
Of course, Xiao Yu couldn't say anything about the evil ghost. After what happened that year, the whole village panicked, fearing that the evil ghost would come back to take revenge, but in the end it didn't happen! But since that incident, people in the village have been more concerned about this thing.
Taboo, for fear of attracting bad things.
"Okay, let me buy some incense and candles together. After dinner, I will go and have a look with you."
The man confessed, then picked up a coat and walked out. However, not long after he left, the former village chief came here. After seeing Xiao Yu, he greeted him with greetings, which moved Xiao Yu very much.
"If the old god sees you, he will definitely be very happy." The village chief is now fifty years old. He was responsible for the funeral of Grandpa Xiao Yu back then, so Xiao Yu is very grateful to this man.
After a while, many people in the village knew that the grandson of the old god was back, especially some old people, who came to see what the little boy looked like now.
Xiao Yu looked very excited when he saw so many villagers, so he immediately started chatting with everyone. After more than an hour, everyone left, and Xiao Yu returned to the room again to prepare for dinner.
It was getting dark. After eating, Xiao Yu and the others carried some incense and candles and walked towards the mountains behind the village. However, Xiao Yu felt very heavy at this time. This was the first time he had come here after twelve years of leaving.
Visiting the grave makes me feel a little sad.
What surprised Xiao Yu was that the area around his grandfather's cemetery was very clean, with no weeds growing as expected. There were also some pines and cypresses planted on the edge of the cemetery. They probably hadn't been planted for a few years, so they didn't look too big.
.
Under the night, a solitary grave, like an old man left behind, lies there lonely, guarding the world.
"Old friend... I'm here to see you and your grandson. You old guy has been gone for more than ten years and I don't know if you are living well down here. If you are missing something, just give me a dream and I will give it to you.
Prepare some".
Taoist Master Shi stood at the edge of the cemetery and said a few words as if sighing with emotion. Then he squatted there and started lighting incense candles.
"grandfather…".
Looking at the cemetery, Xiao Yu called out softly. This title was so familiar, but yet so strange.
"Grandpa...I'm here to see you...Grandpa".
As the word "grandpa" blurted out, thousands of thoughts turned into rolling tears, making Xiao Yu's eyes turn red instantly and his voice started to sob.
"Grandpa...I...I'm here to see you...Grandpa...".
Xiao Yu knelt on the ground and kept repeating the same sentence. They had been separated for twelve years. Although the yin and yang were separated, those scenes seemed like they happened yesterday, on the way to do things, on the way to see Feng Shui.
In that dilapidated mud house.
"Grandpa...I'm sorry, I'm useless, I haven't avenged you yet, I...".
"I will avenge you, I will get you back, grandpa, you must wait for me...".
In the cold wind, Xiao Yu was kneeling there, telling the story of these years as if telling a story! Although he is a Taoist, he knows the cycle of life and death, and knows that fate is determined by God, but he also knows that the person in the lonely tomb in front of him is
People give themselves a childhood that is different from others.
Behind Xiao Yu, Lao Bai and Yu Shiqing were also kneeling there, because Grandpa Xiao Yu was from Maoshan, and Lao Bai, as a disciple of Maoshan who was about to start his career, knelt down to worship his ancestor.
Within reason.
"Hey, okay kid, it's enough for your grandpa to know how much you feel. Get up."
Taoist Master Shi waited for a while, then pulled Xiao Yu up, and then continued, "Don't worry, your grandpa is a capable person. Although he was not careful when competing with others in Taoism...".
When the old Taoist priest said this, his voice suddenly stopped, and then he changed his voice and said, "Let's go, let's go when we're done. Go back first and kill the evil ghost first."
"Grandpa Shi, why did you say you were careless?" Xiao Yu suddenly turned around and asked.
