Taojia Village is very small, located at the foot of a small hill. The mountain behind it is flat and the soil is soft. On weekdays, the villagers of Taojia Village like to grow some vegetables on it.
A little further back is the ancestral tomb of Taojia Village.
land.
As long as there are no landlords and gentry, the hardworking rural people will always find ways to squeeze out a little, but the consequences will be serious.
Uncle Jiu followed Mr. Tao and walked towards the ancestral tomb, one step deep and one step shallow. This was the consequence, the road was gone.
In some places, as you walk along, a road is formed; in some places, as you walk along, the road disappears and becomes land.
As Russell walked, he couldn't help but touch his stomach. It was already noon and he was hungry.
Qiu Sheng, who was standing by, had very sharp eyesight. He saw his junior brother touching his stomach and immediately realized that he was hungry.
Children eat little and get hungry quickly, so they need to eat several times a day.
He took out a scallion pancake from the package he was carrying. Russell couldn't help but sniff at the aroma.
It smells so good!
He took a careful bite and began to chew it in small sips, not at all shying away from the fact that this was also a cemetery and somewhat unlucky.
Russell loves to reason with those ghosts the most.
It’s just a pity that while I was talking, the ghost disappeared.
When Mr. Tao smelled the fragrance, he was stunned at first, then turned around and started to give instructions to his son.
"I'll go, and you can go back quickly and ask your mother to cook some of her specialties. Don't treat Master Lin badly."
The man nodded, turned around and ran back.
As soon as Russell heard about the specialty, the scallion pancake in his hand suddenly felt less fragrant.
He has experience in this matter, and he knows that other people's things are always the best.
And in a countryside like this, you would never imagine how exotic the delicacies of the country people are.
After walking for a while, the group slowly came to a small slope along the path. It was summer and the aisle was full of thorns.
Fortunately, Mr. Tao was well prepared and had a machete in his hand. After a few cuts, the road became much smoother.
Although the ancestral grave is nearby, they don't come here often. The last time they came was two months ago, when they burned paper and visited the grave.
After walking for a while, we finally arrived at the grave of Mr. Tao's father.
There was a group of small graves there. Looking down, there were green vegetable fields and grasshoppers flying everywhere.
Uncle Jiu just took a look and walked straight to a small grave without a tombstone without Mr. Tao's guidance.
The grave was overgrown with weeds and even had a huge tree growing on it!
It's outrageous!
Russell could see clearly that there was a yellow aura swirling around the grave, exactly the same as the one above the door of Mr. Tao's house.
"Master Lin, this is my father's grave."
Mr. Tao pointed to a pile of graves with a tombstone in front of it, which was only about ten feet high from the top to the bottom.
The tombstone was an ordinary rock covered with moss. Mr. Tao scraped it casually twice, then chopped off a wild sapling with a knife.
It is taboo to have trees growing on a grave.
Uncle Jiu did not go over, but instead glanced at Wencai and said, "Bring the things here."
"ah?"
Wencai hasn't come to his senses yet. What does the master want
Russell thought, "Master wants a compass!"
To look at Feng Shui, just take a quick look with the naked eye and you will know whether it is good or bad at a glance. If you look closely, you will need a compass to locate it.
Wencai suddenly realized what was going on and hurriedly took out a black compass from the package and handed it to Uncle Jiu.
Uncle Jiu nodded with satisfaction, and couldn't help but feel emotional in his heart that he finally had a good apprentice.
Sometimes, there is still a big gap between apprentices.
Uncle Jiu held the compass in his left hand and made some magic gestures with his right hand, circling around the grave.
Old Mr. Tao looked on in dismay as he watched Uncle Jiu circling other people's graves but not coming to visit his own old father's.
But he didn't dare to ask, so he could only watch quietly.
Russell seemed to have thought of something, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly. If it was really as he thought, then this matter would be interesting.
No wonder Uncle Jiu kept shaking his head and said that this matter was extremely difficult.
Qiu Sheng, who was standing by, leaned over quietly and glanced at Mr. Tao. Seeing that he didn't notice this, he quietly asked, "Junior brother, is the master right?"
There was some worry on his face, fearing that Uncle Jiu would be careless and make trouble, which would ruin his job.
Russell shook his head. "The Tao family is so unlucky. After so many years of worship, they mistakenly called someone else father!"
The grave that Uncle Jiu is turning around now has the same yellow aura as the one that belongs to Mr. Tao. Looking at Uncle Jiu's actions, it is clear that he is confirming whether this is Mr. Tao's grave.
Before confirming, he was already 98% sure. Uncle Jiu was just a cautious person and would not speak until he was 100% sure.
"Worshiping the wrong grave?"
Wencai, who was eavesdropping on the side, exclaimed, and Qiu Sheng hurriedly covered his mouth with his hand, but it was too late.
When Mr. Tao heard these words, his expression suddenly changed. He stared at the tombstone in front of him, reading word by word. It was his family's, there was no doubt about it!
He seemed to have thought of something again, and hurriedly took two steps back, counting from left to right, "One, two, three..."
Mr. Tao suddenly felt dizzy and his vision went dark. His father was the fourth of five brothers in the family, and they were buried according to the order in which they were buried.
Now the tombstone is on the third grave!
Mr. Tao turned his head tremblingly and saw that the fourth grave was covered with weeds and a huge tree. He was immediately furious and leaned backwards.
"broken!"
Russell's face changed, and he moved extremely quickly, directly dragging Mr. Tao. Uncle Jiu came over quickly and glared at his three apprentices fiercely.
Not capable of accomplishing anything, but capable of causing trouble!
Russell didn't dare to look at Uncle Jiu, Qiu Sheng, and Wencai also lowered his head tightly.
Don’t speak carelessly to strangers, don’t speak lightly, and don’t leave it unsaid.
Don’t say angry words to people close to you, don’t say things sarcastically, and don’t keep silent.
This is what Uncle Jiu usually asks of the three of them, but they didn't do it today and just spoke nonsense!
Uncle Jiu hurriedly bent down. He did know some medical skills, not just those kidney-tonifying prescriptions; those were just incidental.
He stretched out his hand and pinched Mr. Tao's philtrum, and after a while of busy work, Mr. Tao finally woke up from his dizziness.
He was awake, but his eyes were dazed and his face looked extremely painful.
For nearly thirty years, their family has visited the graves, burned incense, and kowtowed to their ancestors every year, but they ended up worshipping the wrong people!
How could Mr. Tao, who has always been filial, feel at ease when his father's grave was left to decay and trees grew on it
"Why!"
Uncle Jiu sighed. He had seen it a long time ago, but he couldn't think of a good excuse, so he had been holding off on saying it.
This is where it gets tricky.
"Don't worry, old sir. Let me think of a solution."
The tombstone was placed on the wrong grave, how ridiculous!
This is also the first time Uncle Jiu has seen it!
