River Embankments

In fact, Zhang Guozhong went to the small station, still had a certain selfishness, during the Cultural Revolution, eating was people's eternal pursuit, I don't know why, why people in that era were so able to eat, especially the labor force working in the countryside, whether it was holding happy events and eating banquets, or eating sticks and noodles on the ground at noon, there was never a time when he patted his stomach from the bottom of his heart and said "I'm full".

As much as there is to eat, those who come will not refuse, and they will never be full.

A year ago, Captain Li's potato stewed chicken and scrambled eggs with chili peppers, in Zhang Guozhong is simply like yesterday, in Zhang Guozhong's impression, Xiaozhan is a rich place, full of good fields, chickens and ducks in flocks, meat dare not say, but at least you can eat eggs every day, and the fragrant rice, Tianjin Xiaozhan rice is famous in the country, in the old society, it was tribute rice for the emperor.

However, when Zhang Guozhong really set foot in Li Village again as a knowledgeable youth, not a god sent by the city, his heart was completely broken.

There are very few crops for real rice cultivation here, and as far as the eye can see, there are endless corn on the cob and sorghum, which people don't bother to steal.

In addition to eating a few mouthfuls of long-lost meat at the banquet of "Welcome Knowledgeable Youth to Li Village" run by Captain Li's house, the next time he eats meat, in Zhang Guozhong's memory, it will be the next year's New Year.

But when it comes to banquets, it is another thing that gives Zhang Guozhong a headache for a lifetime.

Captain Li praised Zhang Guozhong in front of the village's educated youth and villagers, saying that Zhang Guozhong helped the village drive away evil spirits in the village regardless of his own danger, and the Taoism was very high, Li Daming's bumper passed Zhang Guozhong's spell, has already improved a lot, at least eats more than before, and the number of seizures every day seems to be less than before, what Zhang Guozhong is young but more capable than Xu Banxian in the neighboring village, this spirit is worth the majority of members to study hard and other words such as donkey lips are not right to the horse's mouth.

Proletarian fighters led the villagers to descend demons and demons, it is estimated that the socialist camp in the world is counted, and Li Village has it, and the young people below are laughing, but Captain Li is still serious and stern, saying endlessly, at that time Zhang Guozhong really wanted to find a seam to get into it and commit suicide, but fortunately, the villagers were still on his side, and from time to time cast respectful eyes to Zhang Guozhong who blushed like a monkey's ass, for these villagers who basically only know the Chinese numbers below four, the landlord of that year was sent by the city to fight down, Now that the city has sent someone to catch demons in the village, it doesn't seem to be excessive.

"Wait, everyone misunderstood, I am a child of the working class, a staunch Marxist, there are no ghosts and gods in this world at all, I just do my best to use some home remedies to treat Comrade Li Daming for schizophrenia,..." Zhang Guozhong tried his best to explain, in fact, Zhang Guozhong was basically desperate for reversing the understanding of Captain Li and the villagers, and he only said these words to those young people below.

After that, Zhang Guozhong was arranged to live in Captain Li's house, because Captain Li felt that there was such a half-immortal at home, and he slept soundly in the middle of the night.

Zhang Guozhong didn't bother to explain to him that the biggest knot in Zhang Guozhong's head now was the bumper on Li Daming.

After Zhang Guozhong inquired, it has been two months since he last labeled a talisman to Li Daming, Li Daming's bumper has indeed improved, not only can eat two dumplings a day, but also from time to time sober, urging his daughter to go out and ask Mr. to see his illness, which is impossible to Zhang Guozhong, because at that time Zhang Guozhong simply did not know anything about the drawing symbol, completely according to the legend on the "Maoshan Picture Record", found a simple description, but later Zhang Guozhong studied it carefully, It was found that the talisman he drew for Li Daming at that time was not an exorcism talisman at all, but a corpse talisman, which was used to prevent the corpse of a person who had just died from becoming used, according to the book, Li Daming's illness should be aggravated, why did he suddenly get better? Zhang Guozhong carefully recalled every scene and every sentence at that time, and suddenly remembered that Li Daming dug up the coffin when digging the river embankment, and the coffin must be by the river, the river embankment... Riverbank... Zhang Guozhong suddenly realized the runway in the house of Village Chief Li and shouted: I know! I know! It's a river embankment!! Captain Li was startled by Zhang Guozhong's sudden excitement, and hurriedly asked what was going on, but Zhang Guozhong shouted "river embankment" vigorously, and then Aunt Li poured a glass of water for Zhang Guozhong and smoked the "comprehensive" brand cigarettes that Captain Li forcibly stuffed himself (comprehensive brand cigarettes, the cheapest cigarettes in the place at that time.

Its packaging is wrapped with other cigarettes after smoking, and the reverse packaging, the white back is exposed, and then stamped with the word "comprehensive", but at that time the countryside smoked dry cigarettes or rolled themselves with horse manure paper, and the cigarettes rolled out by the machine, known as "two ends together" at that time, was a symbol of high-end, and it was a noble thing to smoke "two ends together" in the countryside), and excitedly told Captain Li his thoughts.

This is Zhang Guozhong's first time smoking, and he only feels spicy and bitter, but at this time, Zhang Guozhong no longer cares.

The next morning, Captain Li gathered more than a dozen strong laborers and took Zhang Guozhong to the embankment dug by Li Daming that year, at this time the embankment has been repaired, and on the side of the embankment is the playground river.

A few villagers came to a small mound and pointed to the open space in front of the mound and told Zhang Guozhong that this was where Li Daming dug out the coffin.

Zhang Guozhong stood on the river embankment and looked at the surrounding environment, "This is it!" It must be right! Zhang Guozhong muttered.

I saw that there were two rows of protruding embankments along the river, but in this place there happened to be a small stream that flowed into the playground river from south to north, and there was a row of willow trees on the south side of the stream, enclosing the stream and the playground river in a shape like a bow and arrow.

"This used to be a cemetery?" "Yes, but after liberation, the dead in the village were buried in the south, and basically they were not buried here."

"The coffin dug up by Li Daming, what is in it, have you seen it?" "No, everyone thinks that thing is evil, and a few days after Li Daming's accident, he burned the coffin."

Village Chief Li's eyes lit up, full of trust in Zhang Guozhong.

"There is no one in that coffin at all!" Zhang Guozhong gritted his teeth and said.

"What? No one? How can there be no one in the coffin, could it be that the livestock of the landlord's family are also buried in the coffin? "
