  I haven't seen that painting for a long time, I heard from the older generation that the woman in the painting is very beautiful, and some people say she looks like Leng Yiran. If you see her, it's as if you've seen the person in the painting. In the end, I heard that the painting was taken away by Cha Wenbin.

  In the summer and autumn of 1984, many things happened in Hongcun Village. First, there was a noisy case of secret burial.

  Cha Wenbin found someone, and some people said that the young man didn't look as ordinary as he seemed. The county public security bureau sent the body they had taken from Hongcun back again. When they came, they didn't say a word, and after sending it back, they left. It's said that Old Wan has already applied for retirement, and his work was taken over by his former deputy. The case of the child's death in Hongcun remained unsolved. Around 6 o'clock, there were very few people going out in the whole village. In those years, information was not well-developed, but rumors spread quickly. Some people said that an evil spirit had come to Hongcun, specializing in digging out children's hearts. At first, it might have been just kids scaring each other, but later on, even adults were saying it, and some people said that the tree opposite the big temple was where the evil spirit was dug up.

  The police came many times, but there was little progress in the case of Ma Wenjun. Cha Wenbin received a phone call from the village department about three days after sending that telegram, saying that someone had been sent to deliver something back and asked him to pick it up.

  this can't be made public, the people of hong village all know that something was dug up from that big tree, before they all considered it their own root and regarded the tree as a symbol of hong village, now many people are looking forward to its early death, if they knew that the thing that was taken out was brought back, i'm afraid it would be a huge fuss.

  So Wen Bin decided to take action in the second half of the night, and all the nails that were originally used for sealing were taken back. The body was sealed in a zippered body bag at the time. Fatso borrowed a tractor from the village department, and the three people decided to take action that night.

  At midnight, the stout man drove a tractor with a group of people towards the Grand Temple, without removing the bag. Cha Wenbin was about to put it inside when suddenly a large number of flames appeared around them, and villagers holding torches and flashlights surrounded them.

  This time, Xia Laoliu's intervention was useless. They firmly believed that this thing was a disaster for Hongcun and wanted to burn it away. At the time, the scene was said to have already lost control. It turned out that someone in the village committee had leaked the news, and when Cha Wenbin answered the phone, an accountant overheard the content. The accountant was a big mouth and firmly believed that this matter was related to the corpse, so when the tractor started, almost everyone in the village arrived.

  "Burn it!" someone shouted, "Burn it!" More people started shouting.

  Cha Wenbin signaled them not to be agitated and held up his hand to comfort them: "Everyone listen to me..."

  "Burn it!" The roar of the crowd instantly drowned out his voice, someone brought kerosene, and in the chaos, a whole bucket was poured onto that big tree. There were more than a dozen torches around, some men still had cigarettes in their mouths, at that moment, Cha Wenbin hugged the tree, making an extremely dangerous move: "Either burn me together with it, or everyone go back."

  It's said that this is how Cha Wenbin managed to save the tree, but at the cost of having to remove the corpse from Hong Village. Otherwise, even if you could keep it for a while, you wouldn't be able to keep it forever. And so, Fatso transported the corpse back to Wulipu.

  Wax is the most afraid of high temperatures, once heated it melts. In order to preserve it, Cha Wenbin didn't hesitate to put this corpse bag into his own courtyard's well. From then on, no one drank from that well again. Later, I heard that the corpse bag was given to Feng Qi Yun and it went to a place where it originally did not want to go. This is probably also the greatest joke of fate. After sleeping for thousands of years, it ultimately couldn't withstand the changes of time.

  In the summer and autumn of 1984, something else happened. Xia Qiushi comrade got engaged. At that time, there was no such term as "engagement", it was called "looking at the family" in the local area, with a matchmaker arranging for the girl's relatives to come to the boy's house for inspection, and seven aunts and eight aunts serving as judges. Old Xia Liu was very polite, and Comrade Xia also performed well, the object of his affection was from another village, surname Xu, named Huiying.

  The second daughter of the Xu family is one year younger than Xia Qiushi. They met when they were young, and Qiushi's aunt married into the Xu family next door. During the years when Qiushi didn't attend school, he would often go there to play, and Huiying was his childhood playmate. However, Comrade Lao Xia has completely forgotten all these things. Huiying is pretty and knows how to get along with people, so Old Sixth is very satisfied, and Lao Xia is also quite pleased.

  Cha Wenbin also went as a friend that day, and Lao Xia's home was very lively. At the dinner table, Bangfei was in charge of serving dishes. Lao Xia Liu said to Cha Wenbin: "Nephew, I originally had ulterior motives for Bangfei, but now Qiu Shi doesn't have that good fortune. If he marries this daughter-in-law and brings her into the family, I'm afraid the days ahead will be a bit inconvenient. Why don't you take advantage of the opportunity to settle your own matter?"

  Cha Wenbin and Bao Fei's matter is well understood by everyone, Cha Wenbin is not an irresponsible person. He said to Xia Laoliu: "Uncle, what I say is like spilled water, after I finish some things, I will come to propose marriage. You are a senior, please help me out at that time."

  Every time Wang Fei heard Cha Wenbin's ambiguous words, she would secretly wipe away her tears. She knew that Cha Wenbin had someone else in his heart and that he was marrying her out of obligation. But she was determined to make the most of it, always saying that Cha Wenbin was her destiny.

  That day when Lao Xia's family had the pre-wedding dinner, Pangzi got drunk and Cha Wenbin also drank a lot. Even Ye Qiu, who was usually quiet, picked up his cup. When men get drunk, they always talk too much, hugging each other and crying, saying they were brothers for life. The meal lasted until after 10 pm that night. The Xu family didn't understand whether it was the pre-wedding dinner or brotherly love, anyway Lao Xia didn't even realize when they left. He later went to apologize specifically for this matter.

  At over eleven o'clock, Pangzi drove the hand-held tractor to Wulipu, and its big light was not much stronger than a flashlight. When passing by the Great Hall, he finally got out of the car and vomited, spitting loudly there. After vomiting, he leaned against the tractor and fell asleep. Zhang Wenbin shouted several times, but Pangzi didn't respond, and then he also fell asleep in the back of the truck.

  It was past two o'clock, and the dogs in the village had all fallen asleep. Cha Wenbin felt that the floor was scorching hot, so he rolled over, dazed, and bumped his forehead against the railing of the tractor. The millet wine they drank at night was potent, and Cha Wenbin's forehead throbbed with pain after being hit hard. He rubbed it a few times, and both his sleepiness and intoxication dissipated somewhat. In a daze, he saw someone standing on the bridge, tall and thin, holding something in one hand with their back to him.

  It seems like Ye Qiu is gone, he took a glance around and indeed Ye Qiu was not there, looking down at the chubby kid who was sleeping soundly with a "hula hula" snore.

  "Autumn..." He shouted at the person on the bridge, but Ye Qiu didn't respond or turn around. Cha Wenbin felt something was off, last time they passed by here he was standing in that same position staring at something, so he quietly got out of the car and walked towards him.

  As he walked, Zha Wenbin called out his name, and the closer he got, the more he felt a chill in his heart. That evening was the beginning of the eighth month on the lunar calendar, with only a sliver of moon in the sky, barely enough to make out the person's outline. After drinking wine, it was easy to get hot-headed, and his eyes were also a bit blurry. So he lit a fire starter, and as he approached, just as he raised his hand to pat Ye Qiu's shoulder, he restrained himself - after all, he was a Taoist priest, and couldn't do such a thing. Instead, he walked around to stand in front of Ye Qiu.

  This didn't seem to matter, but it made Cha Wenbin's wine all come out of his pores. Ye Qiu stood there, her eyes wide like copper bells, her mouth slightly open, and redness around her nose, ears, lips, and eye corners. Looking down at the ground, there was still a puddle of blood, and when he reached out to touch it, it felt sticky. He stood there like a statue, not moving at all. The moment Cha Wenbin's hand touched his body, Ye Qiu fell forward into his arms.

  "Autumn! Autumn!" His cries were heart-wrenching and tore through the air, startling even Fatty from his sleep.

  Ye Qiu's life was hanging by a thread, and when Cha Wenbin came to, he was still alive. He was sent to the hospital, where the doctor said that his internal injuries were caused by severe shock. It's unclear since when Ye Qiu had become a professional hospital patient, always being sent to the hospital, but this guy had strong self-healing abilities and would be back to normal in two or three days. To think that when he was brought in, the doctor told Cha Wenbin: "Prepare for the worst..."

  What's going on? Ye Qiu said that night, Pangzi and Cha Wenbin were both sleeping on the ground, he couldn't start the tractor, so he just dozed off in the back of the truck. It was probably around half an hour later when suddenly a dog barked from all directions, waking him up with a start. Ye Qiu said that dogs bark at night for different reasons. The frantic barking kind is nothing to worry about, but there's another kind where they tuck their tails and let out a mournful howl - it was the latter that night. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a figure standing in the doorway of the grand hall.

  The case of the conference hall was not long ago, Ye Qiu had just gotten off the car and wanted to go take a look. As soon as he walked to the middle of the bridge, his legs suddenly felt numb, and he couldn't move like he was filled with lead. Slowly, he said he heard a singing voice, it seemed like someone was singing a children's song behind him, in the middle of the night he thought it was Pangzi playing a prank, but when he tried to turn around, he found that his neck couldn't move either.

  Ye Qiu said that at the time, the only thing he could move was his mouth. He gritted his teeth and bit the tip of his tongue hard, but just as he felt his body recover for a moment, someone suddenly slapped him hard on the back.

  Ye Qiu didn't lie, on his back there was a purple bruise. Fatso said that someone who could use external force to beat Ye Qiu like that must be a top-notch master. Cha Wenbin then said, where did Hong Village come from with so many masters? He instead suspected it was something dirty at work, otherwise Ye Qiu wouldn't have been unable to move his way, but Ye Qiu said it was human not ghost.
