Chapter 4 Withered Seeds
  Isn't this Wu Dabao the name of Grandpa Wu San's precious grandson?

Wu Dabao's many misdeeds in the past flashed through my mind, and I actually felt like I was not surprised.

In the early years, there were no bathrooms in the village, only large bathhouses.

This kid started climbing the walls to watch what was going on in the women's bathhouse when he was six or seven years old. He was scolded countless times and didn't stop until he was taken to the city to go to school.

Unexpectedly, more than ten years have passed, and people have gone to the ground, and they still haven’t gotten rid of their lustful habits.

Perhaps seeing my dissatisfaction, the second uncle also sighed, looking quite troubled:

"I remember that Wu Dabao is one year older than you. How can he be so reckless and not half as sensible as you! Look at what he's doing, it's really outrageous."

I also pouted at the tombstone and looked in the direction of my second uncle's finger. Only then did I realize that the two pairs of boys and girls that my second uncle had impaled Wu Dabao were placed sideways.

The two boys were fine, but the two girls suffered a great disaster.

The paper skin on the girl's body has been torn off, and several bamboo frames inside have been broken. She is lying limply on the ground. She has obviously been abused.

I was shocked at first, and then I felt incredible:

"This, this, this Wu Dabao."

"You're not giving this paper girl to someone else, are you?"

The second uncle sighed and told me to wait where I was, while he circled the graveyard around Wu Dabao's earthen tomb.

The more I looked at Wu Dabao's tombstone, the more uncomfortable I felt. There was an inexplicable evil fire in my heart that wanted to beat him up. Before I could figure out how to complete this move, I heard my second uncle shouting not far away.

I hurried over and saw an old man with white hair and beard lying behind the mound.

When I looked again, I saw that this was none other than Grandpa Wu San who was scolding me just now!

The horrific scene just now still lingered in my mind, and I hesitated for a moment whether the other party was still green-faced and whether there was still that weird paper donkey around.

The next moment, the second uncle directly helped the person up. Seeing this, I did not hesitate and stepped forward to help.

My second uncle and I pinched each other, gave him water, and shouted for a long time before Grandpa Wu San woke up slowly. His face did not look like the gray-grey face I had seen before.

His cloudy old eyes were still a little unbelievable when he opened them and saw me. It wasn't until he saw his second uncle again that he coughed repeatedly and tears flashed in his eyes:
  "What a sin I have committed, Brother Tu!"

"You came to save me?!"

The second uncle patted him on the back and kept cheering him up:

"What's going on?"

Wu Laosan almost burst into tears after hearing these words:
  "What else can I do?"

"This is not about thinking that in July and a half, the door of hell will open, and everyone will go back to their homes to get incense."

"I went to your store to buy incense paper money. I thought I would give incense to my old woman and my worthless grandson, so that he could live a little more comfortably down there."

"I didn't expect that my legs and feet were slow, and it would be dark when I came here to burn incense for the old lady."

"As soon as I put the things down, I heard the voice of my eldest grandson."

Wu Laosan choked and said:

"He said that the virgin I burned for him was young and unattractive, and asked me to find some beautiful wives for him!"

"What this little bastard said was ugly. I only said I would burn a few more for him, but I didn't expect that he would ask for a living person when he opened his mouth."

"I didn't agree, so I watched with my own eyes as the incense I lit for him turned into smoke and chased me all the way."

"Then, I will, I will just lie here! You bastard! You can even beat me! It's useless!"

Wu Laosan thumped his chest again, and I said curiously:

"Then Third Grandpa, do you still remember that you saw me on the road just now?"

Wu Laosan was stunned for a moment and shook his head:

"How could such a thing happen?!" I turned to look at my second uncle, who shook his head slightly and said:
  "The living soul leaves the body, not the three souls and seven souls leave the body at the same time, otherwise they can be buried directly."

"It's normal if you can't remember."

I said how I felt that Grandpa Wu San, who was riding a paper donkey before, was mean and cunning. It turned out that he was not the usual Grandpa Wu at all.

I was really relieved, but before I could finish my relief, I heard my second uncle say to Grandpa Wu San:

"Your grandson is really a wilted bitch."

"I was scolded before anything happened, but now I'm buried in the ground and it's still causing trouble."

"When I made paper figurines for your family a few days ago, I told you not to bury them in the ground, but to burn them in the crematorium. Your family must not believe me."

"It's okay now. He happened to meet the Ghost Festival on his first day, ate a lot of incense and sucked in your yang energy. If he continues to be buried here, he will cause a lot of trouble for your family."

What he said was really rude, not to mention Grandpa Wu San who was still sitting on the ground panting, even I was shocked.

In my impression, my second uncle has always been a good-tempered person. Not to mention that he doesn’t use curse words all year round, even in these years, he has only used very few curse words.

I was a little more impatient with Wu Dabao, but Grandpa Wu San just slapped the ground and burst into tears:

"Who would have thought that my little beast would dare to chase me!"

"Besides, burial is something passed down from our ancestors!"

"It is said that the only way to find peace is to be buried in the ground!"

"What should we do now?"

The second uncle didn't say a word, but calmly looked at Wu Dabao's grave not far away. After a long while, he gritted his teeth and said:
  "Brother, let's not talk about the two families. Your grandson is making a lot of noise, and there is already a lot of yin in this mass grave. If you stay here any longer, something will happen."

"There is only one way now, and that is -"

"Dig a grave!"

Grandpa Wu San’s expression suddenly froze, but his second uncle seemed not to notice his embarrassed expression at all and continued:

"Re-excavate the buried people, cremate them, and bury them elsewhere."

". Only in this way can your family not be dragged down by this bastard."

I looked at the serious face of my second uncle, and then at the green and black face of Grandpa Wu San, and I felt that there was a high probability that this would not happen.

How can there be any reason to exhume a person and bury him again?

But the next second, Grandpa Wu San’s voice sounded in my ears:

".Okay! Plane!"

"Leave this matter to Brother Tu. I'll call a few young men to help you tomorrow."

The second uncle nodded, and the three of us walked back along the mountain road.

Until I parted ways with Wu Laosan and returned to my home, I was still in disbelief:
  "Second uncle, how could Mr. Wu allow you to dig the grave?"

"Isn't it the most taboo thing here for us to move graves and break ground?"

The second uncle put down the old backpack on his back and carefully organized the items at hand:
  "No matter where you are, moving tombs and breaking ground is taboo."

"but."

The second uncle burst out laughing:

"But your second uncle is capable and is not afraid of this!"

"Furthermore, this matter cannot be done without relocating the grave. Wu Dabao can beat the old man today and throw your things everywhere. He can rob the little girl by force the next day. How dare he attack the villagers!"

"It is our duty as people in the world to do this kind of thing!"
