A-Lian's friend is a 23-year-old young man, who seems to be A-Lian's boyfriend. His name is Tai Long. Tai Long is about 1.75 meters tall, dark-skinned, and looks very refined. He wears a black T-shirt, black shorts, and a pair of slippers.
When I ran to the store entrance, I was out of breath, with sweat on my forehead. I leaned against the wall and said, "Ah, A-Lian, what, what's the matter... */.*"
Ah Lian quickly took a glass of water, ran to Tai Long's side, handed it to Tai Long and said, "Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Hey, didn't I hear that a man came to your store to chat with you? I can't let anyone steal my wife." Tailong laughed and looked at me. He didn't mean anything against me. He walked in front of me and said, "Brother, my name is Tailong. Please give me your advice."
"Wu Jiu, by the way, I have a wife." I smiled and shook hands with Tai Long. After shaking hands, Tai Long turned to A Lian and said, "A Lian, what do you want to talk to me about this time?"
"That's right." I immediately explained the day of heavy funeral to Tailong and Alian. My master and I were quite famous in the town before, and they had heard of me and my master. They were quite surprised to hear me say this, but Tailong said calmly after listening: "Wu Jiu, according to what you said, the death of Alian's parents was caused by his grandfather."
"Strictly speaking, it's not her grandfather who's causing trouble, it's Feng Shui, it's different." I shook my head. A-Lian was a little worried at this time and asked, "Then Brother Xiaojiu, is there any way to solve this problem you mentioned?"
"Of course, otherwise why would I come to you? Just move the coffin and bury it." I thought for a moment and then said, "Although my Feng Shui skills are not very good, the site can't be too bad. Let's go check out the situation tonight. If there is no problem, we can contact the people in the town to move the coffin and bury it tomorrow."
"But we need a coffin to move the coffin, and my family doesn't have that much money now." A Lian bit her lip and said, "Besides, the people in the town have helped me too much, I can't let them keep paying."
"It's okay. I'll do it for you. Don't think about it anymore. It's okay. Go now. It's better to do it sooner rather than later." I put on my backpack after I said that. A-Lian asked me, "Is this okay? After all, we just met."
Tai Long also said, "Wu Jiu, we appreciate your kindness. I will help A Lian pay for it."
I looked at Tai Long. Of course I knew what he was thinking. I didn't hesitate and said, "Okay, my master has another coffin in his shop. You just need to prepare a meal for the people who help move the coffin."
"Yeah." A-Lian said to me, "Thank you, you are such a good person."
"It's okay." I shook my head and said, "I don't know what's wrong with me now. To be honest, if you didn't give me money in the past, I wouldn't bother to pay attention to you. I'm not a good person. At most, I'm a little soft-hearted. I have to help you when I have the ability, otherwise I won't be able to live with it." This really echoes what Spider-Man said: The greater the power, the greater the responsibility.
Although A-Lian's affairs were not within my scope of responsibility, I did not understand why I should help her at that time, or I may say that I have become more and more nosy in the past two years. Later, I figured it out. Although these things were not within my scope of responsibility, I am a person with a conscience. These things are what I want to help in my heart. I did not have the ability to help people in this way before, but now I have money and ability, so why not help others
A-Lian and Tai-Long also went in and took out three flashlights. They handed me one, and then A-Lian and Tai-Long led the way and walked out to the road outside East Street. After coming out of East Street, there was also a dirt road. There was a small hill ahead. There were a lot of trees on this hill. Most people in Huilong Town buried their family members here when someone died.
This hillside is a circular earthen slope with many tombs on it. It can be seen that Huilong Town is quite particular about the tombs of their ancestors. These tombs have basically been renovated with cement. Most of the tombs are halfway up the hill. A-Lian and Tai-Long led the way and walked up the hillside without any intention of stopping.
"Alian, your grandfather's grave is not on the top of this hill, right?" I asked Alian in front of me. Alian turned her head and nodded and said, "Yes, the good places on the hillside are all occupied. Later, I saw that the top of the hill was still empty, so I said I would bury him there. Is there any problem?"
I frowned. Many people would never build a tomb on the top of a mountain. It has long been recorded in the book "Wangfenduan": If a tomb is built on the top of a mountain, the descendants will lose money and the father will die early.
"Wangfenduan" is a book that records Feng Shui magic. There is a copy in the master's cabinet. I shook my head and said, "It's okay, it's okay. The tomb will be moved tomorrow anyway. You can continue to lead the way."
There were no graves after we passed the halfway point. There were no trees on the hillside either, just some weeds and a few dead trees occasionally. We continued walking for about ten minutes before we finally reached the top of the hillside. The top of the hillside was very open. Although there were weeds everywhere, there was a dead tree in the middle.
Ah Lian pointed at the dead tree with a flashlight and said, "Grandpa and my parents are buried under that dead tree."
I nodded, not daring to neglect them, and said, "You two just stand here and don't move. I'll go over and take a look."
Tai Long said, "Why are you doing this? Is it necessary to be so careful? I don't believe he can jump out."
I sneered and said, "Maybe he can really jump out." Well, I really wanted to slap myself later for my bad mouth.
I walked carefully to the dead tree. There were three tombs lined up under the tree. The tombstone on the far left read "Tomb of Liu Erxi". This should be the tomb of Grandpa Liu. The other two sides were the tombs of A Lian's parents. Their tombs were not decorated with cement, but just a small mound of earth.
But when I took a closer look at Grandpa Liu's grave, I was shocked at first sight. The grass on the grave had all withered. Not only on the grave, but also within a three-meter radius of the grave, the grass had withered. Not only had it withered, it had also turned white. His tombstone also looked damp and had moss growing on it, but there was nothing wrong with the tombstones of the two graves next to it.
I remembered a line from "Looking at the Grave": "White grass and white leaves on the grave, spring water fills the coffin and the owner is injured, water bubbles form on the tombstone and the corpse is rotten and incomplete."
