I remember that on the day I came, Xiaobai did indeed enter Pineapple Village ahead of me. I saw that Xiaobai looked very confident, so I couldn’t help but follow him. In fact, I also wanted to know why Uncle Fourth and his gang came to Fengli so late.
What is the village going to do? The key issues are still hidden from me. Is there anything to do with me? I secretly guessed in my heart. Xiaobai and I carefully avoided the crowd to prevent them from discovering us. I found this
The helper's attention was all on the yard, and they didn't seem to pay attention to the back at all.
Xiaobai and I took a detour to the back of the yard. I took a look. The wall was not high. I could grab the top of the wall with my hand. I had been in the yard before, and I still remembered the general briskness inside. Xiaobai and I looked for
I found a location with relatively few weeds and squatted down.
There is only a wall between here and the yard. I can hear the conversations of people in the yard. The yard is very noisy. I asked Xiaobai to be silent. We just listen here for a while. I hear the sound of ding-ding-dong-dong coming from the yard.
I remember they came here with farm tools, and now they have entered this yard with an old bromeliad tree. Could it be that they came here with something?
At this time, I heard my fourth uncle say: 'Let's start from here! Move quickly! When something comes out, everyone should be calm and don't rush to grab it! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!'
As soon as the fourth uncle finished speaking, I heard Li Dayan speak. Li Dayan coughed first and then said: "Fourth uncle, I don't like to hear what you are saying. They are all fellow villagers. Don't talk nonsense."
It's so heavy, so let's stick to what we discussed before!'
The fourth uncle did not refute, and then there was the sound of a shovel digging into the soil.
I turned back and glanced at Xiaobai, who also got the idea and whispered to me: 'Old Du, why did they hide it from you when they came to dig up treasures?'
I shook my head, how did I know, I have to ask them!
Xiaobai stood up, grabbed the wall with his hands, and was about to climb up. I asked him to keep his voice down, so as not to let them find out. Xiaobai said don't worry, but I was very neat and did not climb up. I just used
I grabbed the wall with my hands, and then slowly pulled my body up. This all relied on the strength of my arms. I thought I couldn't do it, so I exposed half of my head and looked at it for a while. Then I asked him from below what he saw.
Already?
After a while, Xiaobai came down slowly, with a suspicious look on his face. I hurriedly asked him what he saw?
Xiaobai was a little unsure and said: 'They are digging that pineapple tree, but there are four people lying next to it!'
I was a little frightened when I heard that. Both Xiaobai and I had seen the pineapple tree. It was very evil. Why did the Fourth Uncle and his gang come to dig up this pineapple tree in the middle of the night?
Judging from their tone, there should be something underneath the pineapple tree. I don’t know much about the pineapple village. Although Tie Xuan told me about the legend of pineapple village that day, he didn’t tell me what was buried under the pineapple tree.
I thought either Tie Xuan didn't tell me, or he didn't know, so I turned around and said to Xiao Bai: 'You support me from below, and I'll take a look too!'
Xiaobai hurriedly hid for a moment, seeming a little reluctant: 'You are using me as a bench!'
I smiled and said, 'I don't have the strength like you! I took off my shoes and I won't stain your clothes!'
Xiaobai rolled his eyes at me: "You can hold it, I'm afraid your feet will burn me to death! You kneel on my shoulders like this! I will lift you up!"
I smiled and rubbed my hands. Xiaobai squatted in the corner. I knelt on his shoulders. Xiaobai looked quite thin. I thought that my legs would hurt if I knelt down. But I didn’t expect that Xiaobai was so thin.
My body was actually covered in lumps and bumps, so I told Xiaobai that it was okay.
Xiaobai snorted and stood up slowly. Only then did I see the appearance of the yard. The yard was still the same scene as before. A huge pineapple tree stood alone in the yard, surrounded by people carrying it.
The fellow villagers, my uncle Goudan and my father Li Dayan were digging soil around the pineapple tree with shovels. They moved very quickly and had a clear division of labor. The dug soil was removed by the villagers behind, and there were several others beside it.
One of them was carrying a shovel and stood nearby. When the fourth uncle and the others got tired, they immediately changed their positions without wasting any time.
I was a little surprised. Seeing their appearance, it was obviously not the first time they had done this kind of thing. There were also a few people holding flashlights to provide lighting and observing the surrounding situation. I thought to myself that I really underestimated them. The shovels were flying everywhere.
After a while, a large square hole appeared. The hole was very neat, and the surrounding soil was compacted firmly. After looking at it for a while, I finally saw some clues. This was a robbery hole!
Xiaobai started shouting from below: 'Are you watching? My shoulders are almost so sore! Come down quickly!'
I thought about watching it for a while, but I didn't expect Xiaobai to keep shaking below. I lost my balance and fell to the ground!
This hit me hard, and my face was so painful from the pull of the ivy. Xiaobai started laughing, and I cursed: 'You idiot, you still have the nerve to smile!'
Xiaobai immediately stopped laughing and asked me: 'Have you seen clearly after such a long time?'
I stood up and patted the dirt on my body, and glared at Xiaobai with dissatisfaction: "I can't even see for a minute, I can't see clearly!"
Xiaobai immediately turned his face, pointed at me and said: 'My shoulder is about to be broken by you, you only have one minute, you can pull me down!'
After watching it for a while, I roughly saw some signs. I guessed that there might be something under the pineapple tree. The reason was that I remembered a story I heard in the village when I was a child. The person who told the story was in his eighties.
Of course this old man is dead now. Of course this is just my guess, but he is probably dead because I haven’t seen him for more than ten years. The bachelor in the old man’s village has a surname of Yang. I remember that when I was a child, he would be there all day long.
He led his few sheep to the back mountain, so people in the village called him Old Sheep. Old Sheep had three major hobbies. The first was drinking, the second was his sheep, and the third was bragging. At that time, I
When I was young, I liked to listen to him bragging and telling stories. As soon as Old Yang finished drinking, he would get us kids to brag and tell stories. Old Yang never told stories in the village. Whenever Old Yang told stories in the village,
The old people in the village would pick up their shovels and come over to chase him away, so if you wanted to hear his stories, you had to go to the back mountain.
I remember that Old Man Yang often said that there are four major surnames in our village. The first is Du, the second is Li, the third is Zhao, and the fourth is his surname Yang. Old Man Yang said that originally there were only four people in this village, and these four people
They are sworn brothers, and everyone in the village is their descendant. Each of these four people has a unique skill. The one surnamed Li is good at digging mountains and holes, the one surnamed Du is good at mechanical tricks, and the one surnamed Zhao is good at exorcising ghosts and suppressing evil spirits.
, and people surnamed Yang are good at finding acupoints and locating them. This old sheep man is a descendant of the surname Yang, but when it comes to his generation, it is over, and he will be a bachelor all his life. At that time, I remember that the old man asked me to recognize him as my godfather.
He passed on this skill of finding and locating acupuncture points to me. At that time, I was still young and didn’t know what finding and locating acupuncture points was. Besides, this old man was dirty, drank every day, and was only a few poor old sheep. Naturally, I refused.
, Old Man Sheep was a little disappointed, I asked him what is acupoint location?
The old sheep patted a skinny old sheep and said, "This hole-finding and positioning method allows you to know what is buried underground on the ground."
I asked him how he did it, it was so awesome!
Lao Yang smiled and said that I didn't recognize him as my godfather, so he couldn't tell me!
Later, Lao Yang died. I remember that on the day of the burial, the villagers killed the old sheep and buried it in the coffin with the old sheep. I remember that I asked Zhao Banxian at that time why he wanted to separate a sheep from a sheep.
The old man was buried together. Zhao Banxian said at that time that this sheep was the old man's life.
I remember that on the day of the burial, everyone in the village cried. As far as I can remember, Old Sheep was always disliked by the villagers when he was alive, but after he died, so many people shed tears. It was really strange!
