Childhood + quiet Liaohe - Chapter 161:
I drove a bloody truck through the night’s turbulence, and as the darkness faded, I finally transported the three bodies back to my hometown town.
The late autumn morning is particularly cold. The setting sun, like an ice plate, stealthily hides in the thick fog. The cold sunshine, powerlessly through the thick fog, spreads on the dark and desolate fields. On the dark autumn night, the snow like sugar is floating. The boundless land is like a huge shroud covered with a huge body covering under the setting sun With a terrible, piercing white light.
Looking around, the whole earth is in a picture of lifeless misery.
I drove the car directly into the hospital in my hometown town. San Kui and others had been waiting here for a long time. When he opened the door for me, the tears on my face were solidified by the comprehensive low temperature in the early autumn morning. The cold wind stabbed my cheek like a knife. Because of the cold, my body could not help shaking: “it’s so cold!”
There are several wreaths at the door of the dark morgue. Colorful pieces of paper whimper with the wind. In the cold corridor like an ice cellar, Tiedan’s good friends are standing there. At the moment, they are trying their best to guess the terrible experience of Tiedan. Seeing the cars coming, they are waiting for them one after another. While moving the body, they whisper to each other: “Tiedan died so miserably A human life
“Three lives? It is said that there is a child in Ren Hua’s stomach. Alas, it should be four lives! ”
“……”
“Xiaoli,”
three pants patted me on the shoulder: “don’t be sad. Everything is late. Iron eggs and small stones seem to die like this. Lol, man, Xiaoshi liked to play with cars before he died. Whenever he had a chance, he would drive my car. Oh, I didn’t yell at him for this. In retrospect, I’m a real jerk. I’m sorry for Xiaoshi. Look, man, I’ve built a limousine for Xiaoshi! ”
My eyes followed the fingers of the three pants. Just then I noticed that in the cold wind of the hospital yard, there was a paper car. The young people who were moving the body on the truck whispered: “Hey, these three pants are really funny. They are still made of galloping cards! Hey, hey
“Xiaoli,”
three pants threw away the cigarette butts and pulled my arm: “go, let’s have some food. It’s really cold. Drink some wine and warm up. Alas, we haven’t entered the water since yesterday.”
When I went back to the hospital after having a simple breakfast with sankui, I was told that the three bodies had been treated simply. So, I followed sankui and walked into the mortuary. I first came to iron egg’s burial bed. My second aunt’s father was waiting by his son’s body with tears in his eyes. Seeing me coming in, I pointed to the bed’s stiffness in agony “Xiaoli, the iron eggs are here!”
I quietly went to Tiedan’s body. After simple treatment by the doctor, he was more or less restored to his former beauty. He was lying on his back quietly in his expensive birthday clothes, his eyes closed, and a piece of bronze money in his mouth. “This is Renhua! Iron egg’s daughter-in-law
The poor second uncle mumbled in despair: “Tiedan’s daughter-in-law, oh — oh, they can only live in the underworld, oh — oh –” @ @
from the tone of his second uncle, I can fully guess his mind: Although Tiedan has not officially held a wedding ceremony, his second uncle firmly believes that Tiedan is a man with a daughter-in-law, and he is an adult He has a family of his own, though it is not.
Renhua girl, who had undergone plastic surgery, had her face completely destroyed and smeared with thick powder. She tried her best to cover up the huge gun hole that ran through the whole right face. She was dressed in bright clothes and lay beside the subway egg peacefully and happily.
When I walked around her, my eyes deliberately stopped on her small hands: Wow, Renhua’s little finger, as my grandmother said: much shorter than ordinary people, really can’t reach the fingerprint that grandma drew.
“Iron egg”
@
I bent down and picked up several stacks of dark paper and discarded them in the stove in front of the iron egg soul bed one by one: “good brother Tiedan, brother burned paper for you!”
Then, I grieved for the Jedi to come to the small stone’s body: “son, son, dad is coming, little stone, open your eyes and look at Dad…”
“Oh! “The old lady and the old lady cried in front of them, and then they went to cry Last goodbye.
The second aunt and the old aunt stood in front of the iron eggs and small stones for a long time, and their trembling hands repeatedly stroked their son’s cheek, especially the second aunt. Whenever she touched the bullet hole that killed the iron egg, the second aunt’s tears of pity fell one drop after another on his son’s face and forehead.
The second aunt gently stroked her son’s gunshot wound, as if talking to herself and greeting her son: “iron egg, such a big wound, do you feel pain! EH — eh — eh — “
before finishing her words, the second aunt cried out again:” my son, you have died so miserably. How painful it must be to have this shot in your face, woo Hoo Hoo
“Fangzi, Fangzi, don’t cry. Take a good look at your son. After a while, you won’t see it!”
They advised.
“Oh, no, old Ju Zi fainted again!”
All hands and feet will faint out of the old aunt out of the morgue.
Compared with the old aunt, er Gu is much stronger. She still sobs and looks forward to her son, who is lying still. She carefully arranges her birthday clothes for Tiedan. Suddenly, er Gu seems to find that something is not suitable. She points to Tiedan’s feet: “Xiaoyanzi, go, tie tie tie tie the shoelaces for Tiedan. When Tiedan is alive, it is not He doesn’t like to tie his shoes like this
“Well, er Gu, I’ll tie it on again now!”
Second uncle’s daughter little swallow immediately went around iron egg’s feet and squatted down to tie tie tie iron egg’s shoes again.
“Also, little wormwood, iron egg’s belt is not tied properly, you can give him a right way again!”
“Well,”
my cousin xiaohaozi agreed, and immediately set about finishing Tiedan’s belt. The second aunt still reluctantly stroked her son’s wound: “Tiedan, mother’s good son, you just leave your mother so ruthlessly. What can I do! Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
The more she said, the more she was sad. She said, in despair, she patted the head of the bed in agony and pulled her hoarse voice: “iron eggs, stones, benevolent flowers, oh – OH – Oh, poor children, oh – OH – oh
“Oh, I think it’s almost the same.”
I don’t know who urged: “almost, it’s time. Let’s get rid of Fangzi, otherwise, it won’t stop crying! It will make your body cry bad. “
@
” second sister, let’s go “
” Fangzi, don’t cry! ”
“Iron egg, stone, kernel flower, oh — oh — oh –” @ @
Where is the second aunt, pushing and shoving people desperately, grabbing the head of the bed with both hands, saying that she would not leave: “my son, my son!…”
Helpless, the people simply put Er Gu out of the mortuary, and she fainted again in extreme pain.
“I said, take advantage of this opportunity, quickly carry away
In the chaos, the hired workers began to take the bodies of Tiedan and other people and carry them to the truck. When carrying the corpse of Renhua, I heard a short fat worker whispering to his workmates: “in the past, I heard the old man say that pregnant women don’t have zombies after they die. Today, this is the first time that I carry the body of a pregnant woman. It’s such a long time, God The air is so cold, but there are no zombies in Ren Hua! ”
“Really, there are no zombies. The old man is right. I’ve learned a lot!”
In the boundless depth of the earth, on the edge of a dense forest, in the middle of a terrible courtyard, there stands a huge chimney towering into the sky like a monster. The top of the chimney looks like a big black anus, constantly spitting out strong, pungent smoke, which was once energetic, tireless, busy and ambitious People, the last, most helpless form of expression, everything from then on disappeared.
Below the chimney is a huge, four entrance incinerator. Here is the monster’s big mouth. Pork mixed corpses are placed on a dark, greasy, shiny iron bed.
The staff dressed in a shroud are like ghosts in hell. They press the green buttons on the top of the iron bed one by one without any expression. The big iron door of the incinerator suddenly opens with a big red mouth. The flames inside emit scorching heat waves. The imitated Buddha is about to gush out of the big mouth, and no one can recover from it. It is covered with oil stains The iron bed slides unstoppably into the monster’s greedy mouth at an amazing speed. The tender flesh and blood bodies of iron eggs and others are immediately engulfed by the blazing fire, and at the same time, they are twitching painfully.
“Iron egg!”
“Stone!”
“Ren Hua!”
With a bang, the monster closed his big red mouth with satisfaction and made a happy roar. He chewed the delicious food in his mouth and hummed softly.
More than ten minutes later, the little ghost picked up a big black iron stick and put it into the monster’s mouth, stabbed the body which had already been completely changed, and helped the monster stir up the food, poke it to pieces, so as to absorb and digest it as soon as possible.
When it is confirmed that the body has been thoroughly stirred up, the imp pulls out the big iron stick and throws it in the corner with a loud “trumpet”. Then he takes up his arms and looks at the monster to continue to devour the corpse.
About 30 minutes later, the kid got some iron baskets from nowhere and put them under the monster’s chin. Then, he activated a button again. The monster gradually quieted down after a full meal, pounding his thick lips and savoring the aftertaste of the corpse.
The little ghost ignored the monster and walked out of the door with a smoking iron basket full of carbon ash. He looked down at the note in his hand and asked coldly, “No. 12, No. 13, No. 14!…”
“Ah, iron egg, little stone, kernel flower!…”
The second uncle took Tiedan’s ashes with tears, placed them on the cement platform, opened the casket they had just bought, and began to shrink the young ashes of Tiedan and others.
“Xiaolizi, don’t cry.”
the new three aunts behind me quietly pushed me: “let’s go, go to see your aunts, and persuade her to stop crying all the time!”
When I was accompanied by my new aunt, I returned to the small town, pushed open the door of the second aunt’s house, and walked into the inner room. I saw the second aunt and the old aunt embracing each other on the Kang. A piece of wet white towel was spread on the disheveled head. Four eyes had been swollen because of excessive crying. Several middle-aged women hugged my two aunts and chattered and talked about consolation What the two aunts couldn’t hear at all.
Seeing me coming in, the two aunts broke off the arms of several middle-aged women and rushed at me one after another. Their four arms held me tightly, and they cried again: “woo Hoo Hoo Li, my aunt’s nephew. What did my aunt do in the past life? Why did God retaliate me like this? I am a widowed man. I have cut off my son and grandchildren. Wu — Wu — Wu — “@ @
” Oh “
when my grandmother, who was always sitting at the end of the soil Kang, heard two aunts’ murmuring, suddenly opened her voice:” ah, you, you, did not listen to what I said at the beginning, and married a short-lived ghost When she got home, she raised her hand and said, “this crazy girl is not lucky at all. Her fingers are so short that she borrows her light! Take a small stone with you
“Wu — Wu — Wu –”
in the face of grandma’s nagging, the two aunts seemed speechless: “xiaolizi, big nephew, my aunt is finished, my aunt has nothing, I don’t even have a grip. What’s the meaning of Auntie living?”
“Fang Zi, Ju Zi, don’t cry!”
The two aunts struggled desperately: “aunt is finished, aunt has no son!”
Two aunts screamed hysterically. I wiped my tears and nestled in the trembling arms of the two aunts: “Auntie, after that, I will be your son, aunt, I will be your son, I, I,…”
“Li, would you like to be your aunt’s son?”
Two aunts cried and asked me, and I answered without hesitation: “well, auntie, I’d like to be your son, aunt. From now on, I’ll be your son!”
“Big nephew, you are willing to be my aunt’s son. Then, Xiaoli, you call me my mother.”
the two aunts almost urged me to say: “Li, call us mom quickly!”
“Well –”
I could no longer restrain my grief. Tears completely blurred my sight. I broke away from the sincere embrace of my two aunts. With a thud, I knelt down under the earthen Kang and called from the bottom of my heart: “Ma Ma Ma, Ma Ma, Ma.”
