C4 Ghost singing
"Stay at home. You can't go anywhere." Grandfather did not agree to my request, and hurriedly left with Cheng's carpenter's daughter-in-law after he finished speaking.
"Humph!" The more you don't want me to go, the more I'll go. "
Looking at my grandfather's retreating figure, I thought to myself.
Thus, I took advantage of Grandma's time to clean up the table, sneakily sneaking out of my house and running towards Cheng's carpenter's home.
When I ran to Cheng's carpenter's house, I discovered that the light in his yard was on, and there were many people who were watching the show in front of his house.
After I saw it, I did not go to the main entrance, but climbed up the wall towards Cheng's carpenter's house, wanting to see what was going on inside.
After climbing up the wall, before I could even sit still, I heard a familiar voice:
"Third brother, pull me, I can't climb up." I saw that Lei Zi had arrived at the wall at some point in time.
"Why are you here? Be careful when you climb, your weight is very dangerous, don't collapse the wall. " I asked as I stretched out my hand to pull Lei Zi's arm.
"I came here a long time ago. I just wanted to call you and ask you to come watch the show with me, but I saw you climbing the wall, so I came to find you." After Lei Zi climbed up, he looked at me and said.
"What is going on?" I asked Lei Zi.
Lei Zi shook his head:
"I don't know the specifics either. I just heard from the people in the village that Cheng's carpenter's family was taken care of by a ghost."
Just as Lei Zi and I were about to stabilize ourselves on the wall, an extremely ear-piercing voice rang in our ears:
"Seeing Jade Rabbit (Wow) rising early in the east, and Ice Wheel leaving the island, the universe is exceptionally clear, and the bright moon in the sky is just like Chang'e leaving the Moon Palace …"
After hearing this sound, I sat on the wall and got goosebumps all over my body. I was sweating. Although I couldn't understand it, I could understand that this was clearly a melody of a Peking Opera!
Who would be singing Beijing Opera in Cheng's carpenter's courtyard at night?
When I looked out into the yard and saw it, I felt my scalp tingle and I almost fell over the top of the wall.
He saw the Cheng's carpenter standing in the middle of the courtyard. At this moment, he was holding onto a lotus with his fingers and walking onstage. However, a female voice came out from his mouth as he sang a song:
"The golden carp is facing the water surface, ah, the water surface facing the sky, the geese, the geese, ah, the geese, the geese and the flying …" Her tone was soft, her face was gloomy, her eyes were bright, and her expression was engrossed. Her body was also very gentle, as if she was a play from ancient times.
Accompanying the sound of his singing and his strange movements, the lights on the doorlights flickered between dark and bright. The entire yard seemed exceptionally strange and frightening.
And my grandfather's and Cheng's carpenter's daughter-in-law is standing not far in front of him, I clearly saw that my grandfather was holding his breath, staring unblinkingly at the Cheng's carpenter as he played. A grim expression appeared on his face.
Cheng's carpenter's wife also had a face full of fear and trepidation. She wanted to go up and persuade him, but she was slapped by the Cheng's carpenter.
Seeing this, a chill ran down my spine. What's going on with Cheng's carpenter? Why did he suddenly start singing like a woman in the middle of the night? Furthermore, his singing was very standard, not any worse than the ones on TV. Wasn't this strange?
He had not even graduated from Cheng's carpenter Elementary School and did not have any culture. He was just a rugged old man who had worked as a carpenter his entire life. Why did he suddenly start singing Beijing Opera? Furthermore, it was a female voice retorting!
It was simply a fantasy story! If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never have believed it.
Was the sun rising in the west?
If he said it, it would be a mess.
At this time, Lei Zi, who was at the side, rubbed his arm against me.
"Third Brother? What happened to the Cheng's carpenter? He … Why did he start singing so late at night? Is he really being carried by a ghost? " When Lei Zi asked this question,
After I heard Lei Zi's words, I looked at the Cheng's carpenter in the courtyard who was still jumping and singing as he spoke:
"I'm not sure either. Let's take a look first."
Although I can't explain it clearly, in my heart, I feel that the Cheng's carpenter might have been possessed by a ghost and messed with a hoodlum, and this hoodlum is a female ghost who really likes to sing Beijing opera!
How could he explain all of this?
My grandfather waited in the courtyard until Cheng's carpenter finished singing this song.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?! "
Cheng's carpenter took a glance at my grandfather, first walked a circle, then pointed at my grandfather with his orchid shaped finger, and said:
"What are you asking?" His tone was like that of a woman, but deep in his lifeless eyes, there was a trace of malice. The one who made me feel that the person who spoke was not the Cheng's carpenter who normally spoke very little but only knew how to lower his head and work honestly.
"Who are you? What are you doing attaching yourself to Old Cheng's body?! " Grandfather's tone was very firm and following what he said, it also proved that there was indeed something attached to Cheng's carpenter's body.
"Who am I? I have to ask who you are. "Old man, let me tell you, don't meddle in other people's business. Do consider yourselves, or else you will die." Cheng's carpenter looked at my grandfather gloomily as he spoke.
When my grandfather heard this, he did not say much. He directly grabbed a handful of white ashes from his bag and threw it at Cheng's carpenter's face.
After my grandfather threw away the white ash on his face, Cheng's carpenter's body actually started to tremble non-stop, and the trembling became more intense, and white foam started to come out of his mouth.
"Stop watching the commotion. Hurry up and send a few people to help push Old Cheng to the ground!" My grandfather called out to the crowd that had been watching the commotion at the door.
Right after that, three to four robust middle-aged Zhuang Han ran into the courtyard, following his grandfather's instructions, they placed Cheng's carpenter on the ground, some holding onto their arms, some on their thighs.
"Not enough, two more!" "When my grandfather saw this, he shouted for someone to come to the entrance." "You guys better hold it down later. It would be terrible if he got away!" My grandfather ordered as he looked at the six middle-aged men.
"I say, Uncle Zuo, you can rest assured. This old Cheng's carpenter is already this old, how much strength can he possibly have? We, six or seven men, can't control him? " One of the middle-aged men said to my grandfather.
"That's right. We do not have any farmland in the countryside. We just have strength!" Another person added.
My grandfather didn't say anything. He took out a piece of hemp rope from his backpack and sprinkled a layer of the same white ash he used before.
"It's been held down!" Grandfather shouted, and used the hemp rope to tie the Cheng's carpenter to him.
He first started with his feet and then slowly tied them up.
After these ropes were tied to Cheng's carpenter's body, Cheng's carpenter's face suddenly turned sinister.
"You old thing, you don't know what's good for you. Today, I will take your life!" As Cheng's carpenter spoke, he gathered his strength and used his strength to pull his hands out of the hands of the men who were suppressing him. With a sweep of his hands, he swept away all the men who were pressing against him!
Seeing this, the people who had been watching this entire scene felt a burst of commotion, where did Cheng's carpenter get this much strength from? A fifty year old old man and six or seven middle-aged men were actually trying to pin him down!
The Cheng's carpenter crawled up from the ground. Without hesitation, he pounced towards my grandfather who did not even have time to react, directly pressing him down, and grabbed onto my grandfather's neck with both of his hands.
He looked at my grandfather with a face full of viciousness and cursed in a cold voice:
"I told you to mind your own business, today I will strangle you old man!"
When I saw my grandfather being pressed down by Cheng's carpenter with his neck grabbed, my eyes immediately reddened. The fear from before disappeared like smoke into thin air, I jumped off the wall and quickly ran towards Cheng's carpenter!
After running to the back of the Cheng's carpenter, I stretched out my arm and strangled him from behind. Then, using all my strength, I pulled him backwards, trying to pull him away from my grandfather.
Cheng's carpenter let go of my grandfather after I pulled him back. He turned his head and looked at me with a sinister face! I felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured over my head when he looked at me like that! It made my whole body tremble!
