Tomb Keeper

Chapter 49
During this time, the cemetery was destined to be restless.It was still morning, and I heard noises coming from downstairs before I woke up.I hurried downstairs and saw Shui Yan was holding on to Yang Huzi's collar like crazy, yelling, if you don't refund my money, I will fight you.

I walked over, separated Shui Yan and Yang Huzi, and said to Shui Yan, what's the matter, please speak slowly.

Maybe it's been noisy for a long time, Shui Yan's voice is a little hoarse, she said angrily, our cemetery is now worth more than 5 yuan.We were in a hurry to treat the child and wanted to sell the cemetery, but he refused.Refunded to him, he only gave 5000 yuan.What is the reason for this?I hope you can comment on this. After our family discussed it, as long as he refunded 3 yuan, it would be fine, but he still refused.

It's a complicated thing, and it took me a while to figure it out.It turned out that Shui Yan's family used to be on the back mountain, but later the cemetery expanded, and her family was moved down the mountain.In the compensation for relocation, there was a cemetery for the relocated people on the mountain according to their heads.At that time, Shuiyan hadn't married yet, so Shuiyan's husband and mother-in-law got two cemeteries.At that time, the tomb company, the village committee and the evicted people signed an agreement that the cemetery could only be used by themselves and could not be resold privately.If it is really necessary to transfer, it can only be transferred to the cemetery. The price is calculated according to the price of the cemetery in the year of signing the contract, and each cemetery is 5000 yuan.

Now, Shuiyan’s child needs a huge amount of money to undergo an operation. Her husband, who works outside the home, brought back a letter saying that her mother-in-law’s grave cannot be moved, so she will sell his graveyard. When she dies, she will scatter her ashes into the river. just go.In any case, the child would die if he had a congenital heart disease.Considering that the cemetery is now selling these cemeteries for 8 to 3 yuan, it is not too much for Shuiyan's family to want the cemetery to return 5000 yuan.Unexpectedly, Yang Huzi said that the 5000 yuan signed in the agreement is [-] yuan, and there can be no more than one cent.This made Shui Yan anxious to fight Yang Huzi desperately.

I really can't comment on this.On the one hand, Shuiyan's family deserves sympathy, and the agreement was signed unreasonably at the beginning; on the other hand, the money is managed by the company, and Yang Huzi, as the cemetery manager, has no right to revise the agreement.

So I said to Yang Huzi, how about this, you report to the company on behalf of Shuiyan, how many years have passed, and a grave of 5000 yuan may not be justified.

What I said was a reasonable suggestion, but Yang Huzi pointed at my nose and yelled, how can you speak for her, the guy who eats inside and out, get out of here.

There was a "hum" in my head, and Yang Huzi finally drove me away with an excuse.It happened a little sooner than I expected, but I've already devised a way to deal with this crisis, so I don't really panic when I hear him yell like that.

At this time, Shui Yan was crying again and grabbed Yang Huzi, and shouted, "Did you hear me, everyone will say that 5000 yuan is unreasonable."You and Murakami lied to us together, our homestead, our cornfield, how much did you sell it for?You sold the yin house on the hill for more than 100 million. That is my mother-in-law's homestead. You have no conscience and you will be struck by lightning.

Yang Huzi retreated steadily, and was forced to the wall of the courtyard by Shui Yan's grabbing.Suddenly, he stretched out his hand and pushed Shui Yan, and Shui Yan fell to the ground.This time, Shuiyan stopped crying, she slowly got up from the ground, and said to Yang Huzi with blank eyes, okay, if you dare to do it, I will come here with my mother-in-law tomorrow, if you don’t pay, we will die in Here to show you.

Yang Huzi trembled all over.

When Shuiyan walked to the gate of the courtyard, she turned around and said, "You will die badly. Tonight, the kid in the grave will come and arrest you."

Yang Huzi's whole body shook again, and his legs softened, and he sat on the ground.

In this way, I don't have to use my emergency plan. Yang Huzi no longer has the energy and thought to drive me away, because more serious things are on his head, and he even showed me asking for help when he was sitting on the ground vision.

I said to him, what I said just now was actually helping you down the stairs, why don't you understand.

Yang Huzi seemed to be seriously ill. He panted and said to me, I have already reported Shuiyan to the company. The company said that the agreement cannot be changed. What can I do?

When this turmoil happened, apart from me standing in the center of the vortex, Ye Zi, Poet Feng, and Dumb only stood on the steps outside the main room to watch, even Zhou's mother, who loved to meddle most, was sitting calmly at the kitchen door Peeling vegetables, as if she didn't see it.I think this may indicate that everyone wants to help Shui Yan, and they want to see the end of Yang Huzi being forced to agree to this matter.However, Yang Huzi, the little person in charge, can he be in charge?
After a while, Zhou's mother called for breakfast, but at this time, Yang Huzi disappeared.Zhou's mother said, leave him alone, let's eat.He may have gone to the village chief.You don't know, the village head often said that he is the best way to deal with all troublesome people.

I couldn't help shivering in my heart, as if seeing Shui Yan and her mother-in-law had died here.I ate hastily and went straight to Shuiyan's house.Because I felt that the mystery of the little ghost was hidden in Shui Yan's mouth. When she said that the little ghost would catch you, Yang Huzi collapsed.

When I walked to Shuiyan's house, she was crying with the baby in her arms.Her mother-in-law sat at the door with blank eyes, and when she saw me, she said, Shuiyan said you are a good person, please help us.

Shuiyan also came out with the baby in her arms, so I sat on the stool and chatted with them, from the relocation to the cemetery and then to the kid, and a shocking thing was revealed.

One day ten years ago, when a small piece of cemetery in the back mountain had just been developed, Shuiyan's mother-in-law went to the woods beside the cemetery to collect firewood. There was a heavy fog on the mountain that day, and it didn't clear up until morning.Suddenly, Shuiyan's mother-in-law heard someone talking in the nearby cemetery, and she recognized the voices of Yang Huzi and a woman.Yang Huzi said that the company just called and said that you still owe 2000 yuan and you can't bury your child today.The woman said, didn't the company promise to postpone the payment of the remaining money?You see, I have brought all the ashes of the children, and your graves have been dug, so let me bury them first.The woman began to cry as she spoke.After a while, Shuiyan's mother-in-law heard the voice of the woman saying "no, no, no" and then crying again.Later, the cries were mixed with the man's panting.Shuiyan's mother-in-law felt that something was wrong, so she took a closer look in the mist, oh my god, that woman was lying naked by the grave, with a mustache pressing on her body.Shuiyan's mother-in-law quickly retreated to the woods, and after a long time, she heard the sound of covering the soil, and also heard Yang Huzi's voice saying, I will help you build a better grave and let the child sleep peacefully.The woman suddenly burst into tears.The cry seemed to shake the back mountain.Yang Huzi's voice said, you cry like this, I have to go.Next, apart from the woman's cry, there was no Yang Huzi's voice.The woman cried for a long time by the grave, and cried, "My child, I'm sorry for you, mother."Shuiyan's mother-in-law also shed tears in the woods...

I was sitting outside Shuiyan's house. After hearing this, I felt like a ton of lead was pressed on my chest, and I was speechless for a long time.I jumped to my feet or I thought I would suffocate.I got on the road and went straight to the village chief's house.There are almost no people on the road, and there are cemeteries not far from the road. The wind blows over, and there is the breath of today, last night, last year and last life.

Sure enough, Yang Huzi was at the village chief's house. When he saw me walking into the courtyard and the main room, he asked, what are you doing here?I looked straight at Yang Huzi and said in a low voice, let me tell you, there is fog on the graveyard, especially the little ghost's grave, and no one can be seen a few steps away.

Yang Huzi was stunned for a moment.The village chief leaned back from the ancient style chair he was sitting on, looked out the window and said, the sun is fine, when did the fog start?
I said, this fog has been rising for ten years.

The village head was also stunned for a moment, but immediately became furious. He pointed at me and said, Da Xu, what nonsense are you talking about here, we are discussing business matters, you leave immediately!

Seeing the village head getting angry, Yang Huzi immediately said to him with a smile on his face, Da Xu is the gate, he cares about the graveyard, he said it was the fog before ten o'clock...

Caichang interrupted Yang Huzi impatiently, saying that the fog or not is none of his business, and we are in the middle of the fire here.

I immediately looked at the village chief and said, I can't wait, yes, this is what I want to talk about.Shuiyan, holding the baby and her mother-in-law, was about to go to the provincial capital to file a complaint. I stopped her on the road just now and asked her to wait for the village chief to express her opinion.

The village chief said with a wave of his hand, don't stop her, let her go to sue, she couldn't even find the door to sue in the provincial capital.

I said, not necessarily.What she was looking for were newspaper offices and TV stations. The doors there were wide open, and they could be seen half a street away.

The village chief frowned.I went on to say, village head, you are also a shareholder of this cemetery, so it’s okay if things get too serious.Yang Huzi immediately echoed, "I think this matter needs to be considered. When the agreement was signed, the company left an unforeseen fee for Murakami. I think you, the village chief, just let it go."

The village chief suddenly jumped up from his chair and said with a blushing face that he could not give more than a penny of the money. To this kind of troublemaker, you let him get a foot in, and you can't let him in.She wanted to go to the provincial capital to find a reporter, but she couldn't go. I sent someone to guard the station in Xihe Town. Anyone who dared to go out and make trouble would be arrested and brought back at the station.

After saying this, the village head looked up and laughed.I haven't seen him smile like this since his son's death.Lianzi flashed at the door of the main room, maybe she noticed that I was there, but she turned around and walked away when she wanted to enter the room.

The village chief's smile made my blood rush to my head.I suddenly said loudly, village head, Shuiyan can't go to the provincial capital to find a reporter, but have you ever thought about it, what if the reporter is in your room right now?

The village head asked in bewilderment, what reporter, where is it?
I took out my press card from my jacket pocket and handed it to him, saying, I’m sorry, I’m going to start an interview now, please cooperate, I’m in a hurry, I didn’t bring a pen and paper, can you give me some?
The village chief was stunned, looking at me as if his eyeballs were about to fall out.Yang Huzi leaned over to the village head and looked at my press card. His neck stretched out as if he was frozen. He immediately retreated to the corner of the room and sat down, his knees trembling.

In a closed, cask-like place, long live the reporter.I am fortunate to join the team of journalists with a conscience, which is not inferior to the special forces career I had.

The village head compromised, and Shuiyan could go to the provincial capital with 3 yuan to treat the child.I walked out of the village chief's house and hurried back to the cemetery.I have stayed here for more than 100 days and nights, and I can't help but feel a little sad when I think about leaving.When I was approaching the cemetery, I saw Ye Zi standing at the intersection in the distance. Is she still monitoring my movements?There is no need for this, I will tell her my true identity soon, and lead her out of this cemetery.

At this time, Yang Huzi caught up panting from behind me.He grabbed my arm, looked at both ends of the road, and pulled me into the woods on the side of the road as if he was afraid of meeting people.I followed him and went into the woods. He gasped and said, Da Xu, no, reporter Xu, don’t publish the incident that happened to me ten years ago!

At this moment, I felt the blue veins on my forehead jumping, because I seemed to hear the cry from ten years ago.I said, if you publish it in the newspaper, it will be cheaper for you.You wait for the police to catch you.After you get down, you are not allowed to run around, you can't run.

Yang Huzi said in a crying voice, Reporter Xu, I didn't force her...

Before he could finish speaking, I had already slapped him hard in the face.I yelled at him, dare to say no coercion, what you did is the most shameless coercion in the world!

Yang Huzi knelt down on the ground with a "plop" and cried, "Reporter Xu, please forgive me. From now on, I will build the grave of that child every morning and evening until I die. Isn't that okay?"I'm guilty, Lord Hell will put me in the frying pan, I'm afraid!

I kicked him lying on the ground with my toe and said, let’s do this first, but if that woman sues you, then the law will govern you.

At this time, I noticed a figure shaking in the woods, looked up, it was Ye Zi, and she was running out of the woods.I immediately walked out of the woods, trying to catch up with Ye Zi and talk to her many, many words.However, she walked too fast, and disappeared at the intersection leading to the cemetery in a blink of an eye.
