[057] Filial piety and righteousness
Old Man Xia left so quietly, which is somewhat surprising. Think about it, a living person was still chatting and laughing with you that night, but disappeared the next day. I wonder if anyone has tried this feeling?
In the next few days, the black dog stayed beside Old Man Xia's body without eating or drinking.
When old man Xia was buried, people started to grab dirt and sprinkle it on the shroud wrapping the body. The sad black dog who had been crawling aside and sticking out his tongue, "Hachi - Hachi", suddenly made an incredible move.
Action. In full view of everyone, it resolutely jumped into the tomb, crawled tightly on the body with its four legs, raised its head and howled like a wolf, "Ooooooo..." The black dog's actions shocked everyone at the scene.
The sky was hazy, and people were inspired by such a filial dog's righteous behavior. The corners of their eyes became moist, and the sky was also drizzling at this time.
It's raining, but the black dog won't leave. Looking at the tall coyote dog, people look at each other and don't dare to step forward to tell it to leave. If the stalemate continues like this, it won't be a joke. If you miss the auspicious time for burial,
I don't know what kind of problems will arise.
A few brave people in the village, relying on their daily contact with Old Man Xia, walked to the edge of the tomb and called Hei Zi at the exit.
At first, the black dog ignored their calls, but later, as if it was tired of their noise, it opened its mouth and barked at these people. The people were frightened and kept retreating, fearing that the black dog would jump up from the grave and bite them.
This black dog is going to be buried with its owner! Someone sighed.
Zhong Kui and Zhi Qing had been immersed in the grief of losing Old Man Xia. When they saw Black Dog's behavior, they burst into tears.
Zhong Kui wiped away his tears and walked to the tomb to carefully observe the black dog's behavior. He found that the black dog's eyes flashed with something he had seen from another person's eyes. Was it a flower of tears? Dogs also shed tears? Black dogs
By making such an abnormal move, could there be any clues about Old Man Xia's death?
Thinking of this, Zhong Kui suddenly remembered the black dog barking crazily on the night of the incident.
The black dog seemed to be aware that Zhong Kui was watching it. It tamely wagged its tail at the person who was watching it, and glanced at the person with a pair of spiritual eyes in just a few seconds.
Zhong Kui understood a glimmer of meaning from these deep dog eyes. The dog wanted to avenge its owner!
Zhong Kui stretched out his hand and greeted the black dog: "You are really a good dog. If you have any grievances, we will help you. I will need you to help me in the future!"
Just as Zhong Kui finished speaking, something happened in front of his eyes that shocked people.
The black dog actually jumped out of the tomb tamely! And while wagging its tail, it stood close to Zhong Kui, with a depressed and sad look in its eyes. It snorted and hissed, and its mouth bit up and down to bite his trouser legs.
, it behaves as if it is whispering something to its new owner.
An extremely ferocious black dog became Zhong Kui's companion after Old Man Xia left, which made Zhiqing a little puzzled and confused.
Zhong Kui knows that dogs are the most understanding of human nature. They just can’t speak. All kinds of expressions are in their eyes and tail. There must be another reason for Old Man Xia’s death, otherwise the black dog wouldn’t be lying on the body until
He said that he had to help it so that it would jump out of the pit of the tomb.
A dog and two people were discussing the cause of Old Xia's death in the house where Old Man Xia stayed during his lifetime.
The two people are naturally Zhong Kui and Zhi Qing, and the dog is the black dog.
Zhong Kui named the black dog Lai Pi, which means: You are a Lai Pi and will not leave the master's body. Listening to the new owner calling himself Lai Pi, the black dog seemed to like it very much, wagging its tail more frequently and stretching its tail continuously.
He put his paws on his feet and scratched them. His innocent and innocent look made Zhiqing beside him laugh.
Lai Pi is also very affectionate towards Zhi Qing, but he just likes to never leave Zhong Kui's side.
After Old Man Xia left and was buried, Zhong Hansheng did not show up. He asked someone to bring a letter saying that he seemed to be ill.
Liu Wengen also came to join Zhong Kui and the others on the Sunday after Old Man Xia was buried. When he came, he ignored his pleas for mercy and still blocked the gate of the hospital without mercy, preventing him from entering.
Zhong Kui shouted, and Lapi Cai drooped his ears in displeasure and stepped away to let Wen Gen in.
Zhong Kui, Zhi Qing, Wen Gen, after dinner, the conversation started to change and the subject of old man Xia's death came up again. The deadbeat crawling beside him kept twitching his ears, as if he were listening to a monograph, and glanced at it from time to time.
Looking at his master Zhong Kui, he would sometimes look at Wen Gen with contempt.
"Uncle Chen, do you remember when we heard Lapi barking?" Zhong Kui looked at Zhi Qing and asked.
"Remember, what happened?"
Wen Gen didn't know what they wanted to say, and he didn't strike up a conversation. His attention stayed on Lai Pi's round head. There was a fly flying around on Lai Pi's head, as if it was interested in the top of Lai Pi's head.
I became interested in the ears, which kept tickling and spinning.
Lai Pi was too lazy to pay attention to the fly's harassment. He just shook his head and still didn't move away. He just lay there stubbornly and listened to their conversation.
"I had a strange dream that night, and a dark shadow appeared in the dream. I used this scabbard to stab the shadow." Zhong Kui took out the scabbard from his waist and handed it to Zhiqing and said.
Zhiqing took the scabbard. He remembered that this scabbard was given to Zhong Kui in the tomb.
Next to him, Wen Gen didn't like to hear what Zhong Kui said. But he didn't dare to leave the two of them, so he could only stand there like a fool, looking at the scoundrel with boredom. He didn't understand, such a ferocious beast
Dog, why do you like this bastard Zhong Kui so much?
Zhong Kui looked at Zhi Qing and continued to add: "When I woke up from the dream, I saw a shadow at Mr. Xia's door. I didn't think anything about it at the time, so I went straight to look and found that it was not someone."
Zhiqing put down the scabbard and hurriedly asked: "What is it?"
"Yes..." Zhong Kui glanced at Wen Gen, taking into account his fear of ghosts, and then said calmly: "It's a shadow."
"You mean, that shadow is Old Man Xia?"
Zhong Kui nodded and said, "It should be."
"Speak out your entire thoughts and speculations, and I'll see what the situation is."
Zhong Kui nodded seriously again and said: "I speculate that someone was indeed lurking near us that night and was discovered by the black dog. After being chased away, that person actually did not leave, but waited until Old Xia sleepwalked away in his lifetime.
I started when I was carrying water."
Zhong Kui's words not only shocked Zhiqing, but also made Wen Gen open his mouth in surprise. The deadbeat lying on the ground seemed to agree with his master's conjecture, and actually stood up from the ground, shook his hair, and said
A whining sound came from inside.
"No way! How is that possible?" Zhiqing questioned with a puzzled expression.
Laipi whimpered lowly, shook his hair, and trotted out of the room.
