Forbidden City

Chapter 27 The Second Uncle's Dream
If the coffin was taken to another place, and Mu Yi and Lu Forensic Doctor found out that the second uncle lied to them, what would they think?At this moment, I seemed to see them standing opposite me, with a look of contempt on their faces, and even pointed at us and said, "You uncles and nephews, liars!"

I feel ashamed.

And the second uncle let out a sneer from the side: "Hey, this is the heroic character of our Yu Erqiao!"

……

"Why are you still here in a daze?" The second uncle angrily pulled me back from my imagination, and reached out to hit my head again. I quickly covered my head and said, "Don't keep hitting me on the head, anyway, I'm also such an adult. It's gone." The second uncle snorted, "Then go and push the cart over quickly, don't dawdle!"

It seems that in the eyes of my second uncle, I will always be a child.

I tried to convince my second uncle that after all, people must keep their promises. Maybe we have gained a priceless treasure, but we have lost one of the most important things in life: reputation.If we meet Mu Yi and Lu Fayi again in the future, we will never be able to hold our heads up in front of them because of this incident.

The second uncle stretched out his hands and said with great effort: "Fengfeng, you must have graduated from university for a year or two, and you have been in the society for so long. Why are you still so naive? You are stupid when you study? You have to know , we are nothing but a farmer, we..."

"Shouldn't farmers talk about credibility?" I blurted out: "Farmers must be more honest and simple than any other profession in society..."

"I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you!" The second uncle glared at me, walked over by himself, and angrily pushed the cart over. I wanted to persuade him, but the second uncle glared at me and said, "You are still crooked. , Uncle Be Careful is not polite to you." He said as he pushed the cart into the cave.I was stunned for a while, I didn't expect the second uncle to say this to me, implying that if I stop him from hiding the amber coffin, he will treat me like Ling Zhi?

A gust of night wind blows, chilling my body and mind.I don't know what's wrong with me, but I actually sang against my second uncle.In fact, the second uncle is right, we are just farmers, we only want food and clothing, we only want to live a prosperous life, unlike big people, spirit and reputation are more important than anything else.After all, if the second uncle kept the amber coffin privately and sold it, he would have no worries about food and clothing in his life.Isn't that what most people pursue?But on the other side of my heart, I was trying to persuade me to stop the second uncle, Mu Yi's delicate and cold face appeared in front of me from time to time... I suddenly realized that the reason why I opposed the second uncle was because I Worried that Mu Yi would laugh at me and look down on me.And why do I care so much what she thinks of me?Could it be that I like her?

"Feng Feng!" Second Uncle suddenly called me.

I walked in resentfully, and saw my second uncle put one hand on the amber coffin, one hand on his waist, looking at me with great displeasure, and asked, "Why, haven't you figured it out yet?" I didn't make a sound, noncommittal .The second uncle scratched his hair, suddenly slowed down his tone, and said gently: "Come here." I was slightly taken aback, not knowing what the second uncle wanted to do, could it be that he wanted to call me over, and then suddenly give me a bang?
Seeing me standing still, the second uncle became impatient and urged: "Come here, I won't hit you."

I walked over cautiously. The second uncle took out the cigarette case, took one in his mouth, and shook his hand again. Another cigarette jumped out of his cigarette case. The second uncle said: "Smoke one." .” I shook my head.The second uncle took out the cigarette, stuffed it into my mouth, and lit it for me with a lighter.

"Learn to smoke," said the second uncle. "When you fall in love with cigarettes, you will find that cigarettes are a good friend. You don't need to talk, just smoke, and it can take away all the troubles in your heart."

is it?Why don't I feel that?But I feel more and more depressed, because the mouth is getting more and more bitter.And looking at the attitude of the second uncle, it seems that he is going to educate me, to be precise, he is going to brainwash me.

"Let me tell you something." The second uncle took a puff of cigarette, flicked the ash with his fingers, and said unhurriedly: "This is a secret. I planned not to tell you, but... I Then again, you have a right to know about this."

"What's the matter?" I looked at my second uncle.

The second uncle said: "During this time, I have been at home. I felt that something was going to happen, so I didn't go out. One day, I had a dream. I dreamed of your father."

As soon as my heart moved, a wave of sadness suddenly surged out from the room in my heart.The second uncle might be lying, he was trying to convince me, but I chose to believe him, so I listened carefully.

The second uncle continued: "I dreamed that your father was holding something and seemed to want to say something to me. To be honest, I didn't hear his words clearly at all. I only remembered a few words vaguely, as if it was sealed... the house ... Next, after I woke up, I recalled this dream again, and vaguely remembered that what your father was holding was like a wooden box. I thought, is there something good in that wooden box? I looked for it at home, looking for it After two days, I finally found the box."

Speaking of this, the second uncle stopped, took another puff of his cigarette, and half-closed his eyes, as if he was recalling the scene of looking for boxes at that time.I asked curiously: "What's in the box?" The second uncle said: "I thought there was a treasure in it, but after I opened it, I was disappointed. There was only a rotten book inside. There were some words in the book. Your uncle I don’t read much, and I can only read a few words, so I probably meant to talk about that house, saying that the house was first taken from someone else, and after I lived in it, a series of strange things happened, so the house can’t be lived in.”

The second uncle took another puff of his cigarette, then paused again, and I hurriedly asked, "Is there anything else in the book?"

"Yes, but the writing on it is in traditional Chinese characters, which is too difficult to read. Moreover, the book is rotten and incomplete..."

"Where is that book? Where is it?" I eagerly wanted to see what kind of book it was. If I guessed right, it might be the same thing as a genealogy, otherwise it wouldn't be placed as a treasure by the ancestors. in wooden box.

The second uncle said: "I didn't pay attention to it at the time. I put it on the table. I didn't know that it would turn to ashes the next day."

"@#￥%...&*" I really want to be rude, such an important thing, the second uncle turned it into gray!

The second uncle didn't notice the resentment in my heart, and continued: "I thought at the time, your father was holding a box and wanted me to find the book in the box. After I found it, I didn't find any useful clues, but I remember he said, "Call you back, and you still have a house. Do you want me to build you a new house? After all, you are such an adult, it's time to start a family, and you have to have your own new house, so I called you back." , and then... that’s what happened later.”

I thought about the matter again, my heart moved, and I blurted out: "Is what my dad actually wants to tell you about the house? That is to say, there are weird things under the house..."

"Yes, when the old house was demolished and tree roots grew on the land, I realized it." The second uncle said, "Especially when I found this transparent coffin, I understood better. Your father gave it to me in a dream. It is to tell me that there are treasures under this land, which are the property of our Yu family, and I want to get them up, so that they cannot be robbed by others."

My thoughts were turbulent, and I was not sure if what my second uncle said was true. Since my dad entrusted the dream to the second uncle, why didn't he entrust the dream to me?Also, I always feel a little unbelievable about this, especially when I suddenly remembered that I once saw a corpse in a coffin under the entrance of the cave, and that corpse was very similar to the second uncle.I wanted to ask my second uncle if he had seen the corpse, but before I could ask, my second uncle suddenly reached out and patted me heavily on the shoulder.

"Ah!" Just as I was thinking about the corpse, my second uncle suddenly made this move, which almost scared me out of my wits.

The second uncle said solemnly: "Feng Feng, after talking so much, I want to tell you that this coffin belongs to our Yu family. We will not dedicate it to the country, and we will not sell it to anyone. We will sell it to you." Keep it, or I will be sorry for my ancestors."

"Keep...Keep it?" I asked stupidly, "Why do you keep it?"

The second uncle said: "You don't remember the woman in the coffin? She has been lying in the coffin for so long, the body has not decayed at all, and she is still alive. Don't you think that this coffin is a rare thing that can be met but not sought after?" Zhibao? If your uncle dies, you put me in this coffin, understand?"

"..." I was speechless for a moment.

Suddenly, my mobile phone rang, it was the sound of receiving a message, I quickly took it out, and couldn't wait to open it.Sure enough, it was Ling Ziyao who sent it. She said: The baby is about to be born.
