Chapter 818 60 Yaozu Sister Control Group 55
"The ancestral graves of Uncle Jiang's family, along with those of many other families in our brigade, were bombed flat in the 1930s. The remains could not be found. The graves here were erected later. This one is where Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang are buried together."
As Zhuo Yijun explained to them, she took out two wood-chopping knives, handed one to Hu Xuan, and then began to chop down the saplings that had just grown beside the grave.
Hu Xuan took the grass and started chopping. After he finished, he began pulling up the grass from the grave mound, then placed it beside the grave. He took out the offerings, arranged them, and then knelt on the grass mat, facing the grave, and kowtowed.
This is the original owner's master. A teacher for a day is a father for life. It is only right that he kowtows to the original owner's body.
Suixin followed her father's example and went over to kowtow. Xiaoyun didn't kowtow, because she had no karmic connection with the other party, and kowtowing would be bad for the other party, even if they were reincarnated.
After offering the sacrifices, the offerings were put away, and wine was poured on the grave. The offerings consisted of fruits and pastries, which could be taken back for the children to eat. It was said that eating them would prevent toothaches.
Just as Zhuo Yijun thought they were about to turn back, Suixin suddenly pointed into the woods and exclaimed, "Rabbit! Dad! Catch the rabbit!"
They looked in the direction Suixin was pointing and saw a big gray rabbit hopping towards the woods.
Before Hu Xuan could even make a move, Zhuo Yijun rushed over, shouting, "Wait here, your second uncle will catch you!"
Uncle Zhuo's family only has three sons, and all the grandchildren are boys. The eldest son's family and the second son's family both have two sons. Suixin's arrival was welcomed by the whole family. This little girl is good at coaxing people, and everyone was fussing over her during dinner last night.
Watching their second cousin chase the rabbit toward the air-raid shelter, the couple exchanged a knowing glance and then carried their child toward the same spot.
When they got close to the air-raid shelter, they heard Zhuo Yijun shouting from inside, "This rabbit knows how to find a place to run, it actually ran into here!"
"Second Brother! What's wrong? Did that rabbit run into here?" Fox Xuan asked loudly on purpose.
Then Zhuo Yijun ran out and said to them, "Did you bring any matches? This air-raid shelter has been abandoned for many years. It's too dark inside to see anything. We need to get a torch."
"I don't have any matches, but I brought three lighters with me. They're spoils of war that I was going to give to my second uncle and you guys, but I forgot to take them out yesterday."
As he spoke, Hu Xuan took out two lighters, handed one to Zhuo Yijun, and showed him how to use it.
"Oh my, this is a really nice thing! I saw it at the Friendship Store in the city, but they wouldn't let me touch it unless I bought it." Zhuo Yijun was immediately attracted by this novelty and played with it for a while, completely forgetting about the rabbit in the air-raid shelter.
Xiao Yun had no choice but to call the rabbit back, and it peeked out of the hole. Then, as Sui Xin called out "Rabbit!", the rabbit turned and ran back into the hole.
Zhuo Yijun then remembered that she still needed to catch rabbits. She reached out and broke off a dry branch about the thickness of a child's arm, then wrapped it with some dry grass, lit it, and chased after the rabbit into the hole.
There are oil lamps on the walls inside the air-raid shelter; we can use these to light them later.
The family of three followed them inside. Zhuo Yijun had already lit two oil lamps on the wall, instantly brightening the previously pitch-black air-raid shelter. However, since they had just come in from outside, their vision was still a little distorted, so it still looked dim.
You could see the big, fat rabbit sticking its butt out as it went inside, hopping around and glancing back every now and then, quite provocatively.
This rabbit was brought out by Xiao Yun from his spatial dimension. Although it wasn't intelligent, it was still much smarter than ordinary rabbits outside, and it was also much bigger, weighing about eight or nine pounds.
Since they were all raised as food, the wild boars, pheasants, and rabbits were all kept on the planet Wuling, and she, having gained intelligence, found it difficult to eat them.
They followed the rabbit and soon entered the depths of the air-raid shelter. The further they went, the damper it became, and a rotten smell even wafted towards them.
Sui Xin wrinkled her nose, said "Stinky!" and buried her head in her father's arms.
Fox Xuan patted her on the back, then took out a small apple and handed it to her. It was from his space; it could mask other smells and make you feel refreshed after eating it.
Suixin is sometimes very particular; she puts the food directly under her nose and doesn't eat in this kind of environment.
The rabbit led them to the innermost part where they had nowhere to run and had no choice but to surrender. At this time, they also arrived near the secret passage. Fox Xuan walked to the entrance of the secret passage, secretly used his divine sense to draw the shape of a door, and destroyed the lock inside.
Then he exclaimed in surprise, "Second Brother, come quick! There seems to be a door here!"
Zhuo Yijun heard the shout and ran over with the rabbit in her hand. She was very surprised when she saw the shape. She reached out and pushed it, and to her surprise, the wall was pushed open.
"Why is there a door here? I've never heard of it before."
Although they had no memory of coming here to escape air raids when they were children, they had come here to play and even roasted sweet potatoes here, but they had never discovered this before.
Fox Xuan said with a serious expression, "Second Brother, the lock on this door is broken. It must have been corroded over time. I have a feeling this place is not simple. It might have been done by the enemy or spies. We'd better go in and take a look."
After saying that, he handed the child to Xiao Yun and said to her, "You take the child and wait outside. We don't know what the situation is like inside, so don't go in."
Xiao Yun took Sui Xin's hand and nodded. "You guys be careful too. If you notice anything wrong, come out immediately and let the professionals handle it."
Hu Xuan chuckled and patted her arm. "Don't worry, your man is a professional."
After saying that, he turned to Zhuo Yijun and said, "Second brother, let's dip your torch in lamp oil before we go in. We don't know if there are any lights inside."
Zhuo Yijun hesitated for a moment, then nodded. Their militia were also reserves and had received training, so they could go to the battlefield at any time if there was a war.
Xiao Yun took the rabbit from him with one hand and walked outside; the air inside was really bad.
The mother and daughter stayed at the entrance of the cave and didn't go outside. It was quite hot under the sun.
Xiao Yun twisted a straw rope and tied it around the rabbit's neck, then let Sui Xin pet it for fun. It was just for show, though, because the rabbit was very obedient.
Suixin started munching on the small apple her dad had given her, holding the apple in one hand and rubbing the rabbit in the other.
Hu Xuan and the other man carried torches and walked inside. The further they went, the more shocked Zhuo Yijun became. The tunnel was so long and widened as they went in. There were even electric lights on the ceiling!
Although they had electricity here a long time ago, that was after the founding of the People's Republic of China. This place is clearly different; the walls look like they were built around the same time as the air-raid shelter.
After walking for another twenty minutes, they finally arrived at the huge underground cave. Looking at the fighter jets and heavy weapons inside, Zhuo Yijun was stunned for a long time before she managed to stammer, "My God! There's an armory hidden here!"
Hu Xuan said with a serious expression, "Second Brother, we need to go back and report to our superiors as soon as possible. It's best to keep it a secret until the instructions come down, so as not to alert the spies who have been lying in wait and cause trouble."
Zhuo Yijun looked at the contents again, made a rough note of them, and then nodded heavily. "Yes, we have to report it immediately. If bad people use this, the consequences will be unimaginable."
The two dared not linger and immediately returned the way they came, taking half the time it took to get back to the entrance of the air-raid shelter.
"How are you? Are you alright? What's the situation in there?" Xiao Yun rushed over to ask about their return.
Hu Xuan briefly explained the situation inside in a low voice, making sure that Sui Xin, who was playing with the rabbits, didn't hear, as he was worried that she would go back and spread rumors.
Zhuo Yijun said with a mixture of excitement and nervousness, "Sister-in-law, we have to hurry back to the village."
Xiao Yun nodded, "You guys go to the city then, and Suixin and I will wait for you in the village."
The group hurried down the mountain and back to the village. Zhuo Yijun quietly told her father, and Uncle Zhuo, knowing the importance of the matter, went to the brigade leader and found a reason to ask for leave for his son, and even borrowed a bicycle.
Because they were dealing with military weapons and aircraft, the two of them didn't go to the commune's armed forces department, but went directly to the garrison. There, Hu Xuan revealed his identity and quickly met the person in charge. That very night, troops arrived and took control of the area.
Hu Xuan and Zhuo Yijun followed the troops up the mountain again. After a careful survey, the troops confirmed the danger of the weapons and quickly formulated a disposal plan.
Two days later, the dangerous weapons were safely transferred. The aircraft remained stationary because the other exit for the aircraft had been reduced due to tectonic shifts, and the aircraft would have to be either re-dug or disassembled into parts to exit.
With the hidden danger eliminated, Hu Xuan and Zhuo Yijun were praised and rewarded by their superiors for their discovery. Zhuo Yijun was also exceptionally enlisted in the army for her performance and was stationed in the local area, making it easier for her to go home. The whole family was very happy.
Meanwhile, the family of three had already returned to the city. They only stayed in the village for two days before leaving once the military took over; they didn't have that much time.
After that, they took the children to the beach, which made Suixin very happy, and she finally forgot about her rabbit being braised.
This is all Xiao Yun's fault. She gave the rabbit an order to let her daughter pet it obediently. Unexpectedly, Sui Xin got the idea to keep it as a pet. But she didn't know that when she returned to Uncle Zhuo's house, she handed it over to Aunt Zhuo, and it ended up on the dinner table that night.
At first, Suixin ate with relish, but when she finished eating and wanted to play with the rabbit, she realized it had already gone into her stomach, and she burst into tears...
They went swimming and beachcombing at the beach for three days in a row. The chubby little boy got tanned and became a chubby little black boy. The couple also got a shade darker. Only then did the little brat stop nagging to go.
Luckily, she had homemade sunscreen, so she only got a tan and not sunburn. Actually, some people don't get tanned at all. She just didn't want to be targeted. If things were more open, she could expose herself a bit, but now is not the time.
When they visited the famous Taoist mountain, they ran into Zhang Wanlai, who had been in the same car with them before. He was there on a date with his girlfriend, but it turned out that his girlfriend was actually Gao Haizhen's sister.
They had never met Gao Haizhen, her younger sister, mainly because the two sisters looked so alike. When Zhang Wanlai introduced them, they noticed the similarity in their names and asked around, only to find out it was indeed her.
The two met through an introduction after Zhang returned home, and now they have successfully gone on a blind date and are dating.
Unexpectedly, there was such a sequel. The two of them were each other's destined soulmates. Although there were ups and downs, they were able to grow old together. So when they returned to the Zhuo family and talked about this, they said a few good words about Zhang Wanlai.
After staying for five days, they were ready to leave. They had already gone to the station to buy their return tickets in advance, for the 8:30 am train tomorrow.
After dinner, Lin Cuifen took out a savings book and handed it to Xiao Yun. "This is the money Yiheng has sent back over the years. We've been saving it all. It was originally intended for our wedding, but we were worried about the safety of the remittance, so we didn't send it. We only sent some things and two hundred yuan."
Xiao Yun quickly declined, "Mom, this is a gift from Yiheng to you, it's yours, there's no need to give it to us."
She genuinely didn't expect her in-laws to have saved this money and now want to give it to her. She truly doesn't need the money and sincerely refuses.
Lin Cuifen waved her hand, "It's not just the eldest son, the second son is the same. We've never asked for anything they've earned. Your father and I can still move around now, we don't need your money. When we can't move anymore, if we get sick or have an accident, then it's not too late for you to be filial."
Then Zhuo Yichen and Gao Haizhen also sent a lot of gifts, all of which were local specialties, as well as pearl and coral ornaments from Gao Haizhen's family. These were all intended to earn foreign exchange.
Even her two nephews gave Suixin their favorite toys. Xiao Yun saw that they were sincere and accepted them. However, that night she put a long-lasting amulet on each of them. She always reciprocated kindness.
The next morning, the whole family took the three of them to the train station. Because they had too much luggage, their father and second brother saw them off directly onto the train.
"Be vigilant on the road. Make sure someone stays with Suixin at all times, and don't let her hang out with strangers. I just heard in the waiting room that several human traffickers were arrested on a train the day before yesterday, and they even injured someone with a knife. They were too arrogant!"
Father Zhuo gave instructions with concern, mainly because Suixin was too outgoing and could chat with anyone. He was worried that people might think the human traffickers were in cahoots and that no one would stop her from being abducted.
Hu Xuan and Xiao Yun nodded repeatedly to show that they remembered. Although they knew that Sui Xin was selective in her treatment of people, and that she had a protective talisman and their divine senses, anyone who tried to harm her was simply asking for death.
Twenty minutes later, the flight attendants started ushering people off the train. Zhuo's father and son reluctantly got off the train, and the three of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"Dad is great in every way, except he talks too much!"
"Grandpa is such a talkative man!"
The mother and daughter's voices rang out simultaneously.
Hu Xuan chuckled and scratched his head. "Dad was just worried. It'll only be a little while. Who knows when he'll be back next time? You'll all have to wait if you want to hear it."
"I know."
"I know."
