Chapter 3 The Dead Sister Li
One evening a few days later, a child who was almost the same as me suddenly found me.
"Fool, Grandpa Li's daughter has passed away. There is a shortage of grave guards there. Do you want to go and see it?" a child of my age shouted at me.
After hearing this, it was as if a thunderbolt from the sky hit me on the top of my head. I never expected that my sister so kind to me would die suddenly.
"What's wrong? Fool, you are usually happy, why do you seem to be unhappy?" the child looked at me and asked again.
"No... it's okay." After saying that, I turned around and ran towards Grandpa Li's house.
While running towards the Li family, I remembered the night a few months ago.
Just a few months ago, this sister was forcibly married to a butcher in the county by Grandpa Li. Although I don’t understand the love and love of adults, I can see that the elder sister is very reluctant.
"Little fool, my sister is here to see you."
"Hehe, sister is here." I said as I looked at my sister with a smile.
"I brought you a big chicken leg, hurry up and eat it." My sister put a small lunch box next to me.
I hurriedly opened the lunch box, and then saw the chicken legs in the lunch box. Then I took out the chicken legs and put them beside my mouth and started to chew.
While gnawing on chicken legs, I accidentally heard a faint sob. When I raised my head, I found that my sister was actually crying.
"Sister, why are you crying?" I asked curiously, because in my memory, my sister seems to be smiling, and I have never seen her like this before.
"Sister may not be able to see you in the future. You must take good care of yourself in the future and stop letting others bully you." As he said that, his sister gently stroked the back of my head.
"Why, sister?" I suddenly stood up and asked.
"You don't understand the matter of sir. Sometimes, I really envy you. I really want to live carefree like you, but there are some things... Forget it, let's not talk about it, eat quickly." My sister wiped her tears and stopped talking.
I wanted to ask more, but when I saw my sister's appearance, I was not lucky enough to ask.
The next day, I learned about my sister's marriage. Only then did I understand why my sister cried yesterday. I rushed into Mr. Li's house with a hot head. I shouted to those people, "I wouldn't let my sister get married." I said that my sister was not willing at all. In the end, I was beaten out by Mr. Li's family with wooden sticks. If my sister hadn't stopped me at that time, I would have been beaten.
In the end, I had to leave. Only then did I realize how small my power was, but what else could I do besides these, and I was just an orphan.
Thinking of this, I had already arrived at the door of Mr. Li's house.
Mr. Li stood at the door and looked at me, and asked coldly: "Oh? Fool, why are you here?"
"Master Li, I heard that Sister Li has passed away. I want to help guard the grave." I looked at Master Li and said.
Mr. Li said coldly: "No, we have already found a good person, so you can go back."
"Master Li, just let me go. Sister Li is the best for me. I want to give her a gift at the end. I can give her nothing. I just ask you to let me guard the grave." As I said that, my eyes turned red and my legs knelt down unconsciously.
Mr. Li hesitated for a moment when he saw me, and finally slowly opened his mouth and said, "Okay, then you go, I'll just push that person away. The location is in the back mountain. You'll know if you go."
After saying that, Grandpa Li went into the house and brought me some food and a lot of paper money. I took the things and turned around and walked towards the back mountain.
When I arrived, the sky was completely dark at this time. The round moon hung high above the night sky. There were still many stars flashing in the night sky. It looked so beautiful and so beautiful at this time, but at this time, I was not in the mood to see these.
I slowly walked to a new grave and looked around. I thought this should be my sister's grave. I slowly knelt down to my sister's grave.
"Sister, the fool is here to see you." I said while igniting the paper money.
The paper money was lit, the fire illuminated the nearby environment, and my tears also flowed down unsatisfactorily at this time.
I cried in front of my sister's grave for a long time, until a sudden sound of feet came from behind me
I stopped crying with the sound of steps.
I turned my head suddenly and saw a crooked figure walking towards me.
"What...who?" I asked in a trembling voice.
But the person who came to speak was still walking towards me crookedly. I quickly picked up a stone from the ground and then looked at the figure nervously.
The figure was getting closer and closer to me, and finally completely exposed to the flames of burning paper money. A sloppy Taoist priest wearing patches appeared in front of me. His cheeks were covered with stubble, and he was carrying two long swords on his back, one was golden and the other was red, and the red one looked like it was made of wooden.
"What are you...what are you going to do?" I grabbed a stone and asked as I stepped back and looked at the sloppy Taoist priest.
The sloppy Taoist priest did not answer me directly, but walked straight to me, then looked up and down on me, and finally his brows began to frown slightly.
"Boy, you have such a destiny. I didn't expect you to live until now. It is also a blessing you have cultivated in your previous life." The sloppy Taoist looked at me and said in his mouth that smelled alcohol.
"What... what's the fate of being unrestrained? What do you want to do?" I looked at the sloppy Taoist priest and asked again.
"Boy, I advise you to leave here earlier. There are snake spirits here. Children like you are not enough to get stuck in their teeth. Follow my advice, you can leave here quickly." The sloppy Taoist priest looked at me and said.
"No...it's impossible, you must be fooling me, go away." I shouted with the stone in my hand.
"Oh, don't listen to me, please be blessed." After saying that, the sloppy Taoist turned around and walked towards the direction he came.
Looking at the sloppy Taoist priest's disappearing back, I threw the stone aside.
Then he continued to kneel in front of his sister's grave and burn paper money. He also looked in the direction where the sloppy Taoist priest disappeared from time to time, fearing that the sloppy Taoist priest would come back again.
However, my concern was obviously redundant, and the Taoist did not return again.
When all the paper money was burned out, I lay down on the side of the grave.
