Chapter 261 Chapter 27 The General Worships the Stone

"You know? How do you know?" The young woman pouted, dissatisfied that Wen Sazi ran out without fastening her belt.I looked at the night sky outside, and the stars were twinkling.The sky is like a black cloth with countless holes poked out, and the light leaking from those holes comes from another world. Seeing me looking at the night sky, Wen Sazi raised his head and looked outside, and said, "It's really late. Master Ma has to hurry. I won't talk about it, let's talk about it next time I meet Master Ma." .” The young woman didn't know that Wen Sazi was deliberately teasing her, so she hurriedly grabbed Wen Sazi's sleeve and said, "Since you said you know, let us hear."

"That's it!" Wen Sazi smiled triumphantly. Grandpa said, "Wen Sazi, if you don't tell me I'm really gone." Now Wen Sazi is in a hurry.He hurriedly tied up his trousers, and while fiddling with the hem of his clothes, he said, "Old man, she stepped on the worship stone as you said. When I just went to the bathroom, I found that the stone slab I stepped on was unusual, and it looked very much like a worship stone." The young woman interrupted Wen Sazi and said, "Impossible. The one on the latrine is at least two meters long. How can there be such a long tombstone?" Tombstone?"

Wen Sazi was a little anxious: "Really! Why did I lie to you? I didn't believe it when I was squatting on the stone slab. I have never seen such a long worship stone. But if you look carefully, there are still blurs on it. It may be a long time ago, and the lettering on it has worn out a lot. I guess your mother-in-law or your husband didn’t notice those blurred handwriting when they moved this worship stone home.” "Is there still writing on it?" Grandpa frowned, "How long is it two meters?" The old lady waved her hand beside her and said, "Impossible. The average tombstone is at most half a person's height. How can there be a two-meter-high tombstone? If there are indeed two-meter-high tombstones, then the width must be half a meter, right? But my family The stone slab in the latrine is only half the width of my arm. I saw that such a slab was just set up on the latrine as a step, so I asked my son to bring it here.”

Wen Sazi was in a hurry. He waved his hands to the old lady and the young woman, then took Grandpa's hand and said, "I'm too lazy to argue with you. I'll ask Master Ma to look at the stone slab." A few of us came to the latrine together, and the smell inside was naturally unpleasant. It was also extremely dark in the latrine.The latrine of the old lady's house was not covered with blue tiles, but a layer of thick straw was laid on the roof.The window of the latrine is also simple, with a few boards nailed to a rough wooden frame.The moonlight is coming in from that shabby window.The moonlight fell on the smooth path leading to the latrine, and the stone slab that Wen Sazi mentioned was hidden in a dark corner.

When I first entered the toilet, my eyes hadn't adapted to the darkness, and I couldn't see anything except the square moonlight printed on the ground. But Grandpa said something softly as soon as he entered the door.The words were spoken softly, but just enough for everyone to hear.He said: "Is this the worship stone used by ordinary people? It must be the worship stone of princes and generals." Wen Sazi was startled and said, "What? The stone worship of princes and generals? No wonder the old lady's back is bent like this!" And although I stood next to them, I couldn't see the worship stone they were talking about in this strange hut.Grandpa and Wen Sazi are like actors on a stage, pretending to be a certain prop and singing red faces and white faces.

"Oh, sin, sin..." The old lady hurriedly put her hands together and bowed to a place I couldn't see. "I'm old and dizzy. Please don't blame me, General! It's all because I'm old and can't see clearly." The old lady bowed repeatedly.Her daughter-in-law supported her and couldn't say a word, but looked at grandpa with pleading eyes. Grandpa smiled gently and said, "It doesn't matter. The old lady has done a lot of good deeds and accumulated a lot of blessings. It won't matter if you do the stone worship well. Don't worry."

The young woman nodded, her face looking a little better. My eyes finally adjusted to the darkness in the cabin.I finally saw two gray stone slabs on a dark pit, but I couldn't tell which of the two they were talking about.No wonder the old lady didn't notice anything unusual when she moved the worship stone into the latrine. "Help me get a lamp," said Grandpa. The young woman quickly brought the lamp and put the shade over the wick.In this way, the lights from the main room to here will not be blown out by the wind. Under the light of the lamp, the toilet is much brighter.The piece of moonlight printed on the ground did not disappear, it was still there, giving people the illusion that there was a piece of transparent plastic paper there.

Grandpa took the lamp and looked at it on a slightly thin slate.Wen Sazi and the others held their breath, waiting for Grandpa's final identification.The flame of the lamp shone on Grandpa's face, and that rough face showed a little tiredness.Only then did I remember that his serious backlash effect has not disappeared.In addition, after tossing and tossing for so long tonight, grandpa must be very tired. Grandpa finally removed the lamp from the slab and walked out of the toilet without saying a word.We didn't dare to ask Grandpa, so we just quietly walked back to the main room with him.

Grandpa put the lamp on a table and took off the lampshade.The room is much brighter.Grandpa stretched out two fingers again and flicked the lantern on the wick.The lanterns flew to the ground like fireflies, and then went out.The lights were brighter. "That's the tombstone of an ancient general." Grandpa smacked his lips and said as if he had a toothache. "The general's worship stone?" Wen Sazi squinted his eyes and asked, making sure that he heard correctly. "It should be the general's tombstone buried in General Po." Grandpa rubbed his eyelids, "No other family in our area can use such a tombstone."

"Is it the General Po who is easy to meet the Lost God?" Wen Sazi asked. "Have you heard of General Po from other places?" the young woman said impatiently. "No wonder, stepping on the tombstone of ordinary people is a disaster, let alone the tombstone of a general. Really!" Wen Sazi did not refute her words, but talked about her mother-in-law. "Then what should we do, Master Ma?" the young woman asked Grandpa.Her mother-in-law was also eager to know the answer, she stretched her neck and looked at grandpa.Wen Sazi also nodded. "It's not difficult. You can ask someone to help move the worship stone out and return it to the original place tomorrow. If people don't step on it, it won't press down on people." Grandpa said.

"It's that simple?" Wen Sazi asked.
