I bathed in the amniotic fluid for October, and there was a vast ocean in my heart, but I was alone in the ravines.

My father suddenly woke up from his dream and sat up with a burst of shouts, which scared his mother who was sleeping. For a moment, he thought that a bandit came to his house to cause trouble. But he found that his father was sitting alone in the dark night. At first, the moonlight shone on his father's face, but it was very strange. He thought something was going to happen again like before, but soon he found that his father was actually gasping for breath, and his hands were constantly wiping the sweat on his forehead. Then he realized that his father might have had a nightmare, so he stretched out his hand to turn on the light:

"Minfeng, what's wrong with you? Are you having a nightmare?"

The father answered his mother in a trembling voice:

"Zhang... Zhang Hua, you... you said, is there really something unclean in our house... then... that's not clean..."

My mother was also a little chilled behind her father's words. Although my mother did not personally verify the construction of the courtyard, she had heard a lot of gossips in the neighborhoods when she was on a blind date. In addition, the superstitious grandmother had told her mother these things before, and the mother still knew something about the things below. In fact, my mother didn't care about these things before. People living in the mountains could dig out some graves if they dig fields. But remembering that there are so many coffins buried underground in the place where she lives now, and the shape of the place is very strange. The most important thing is that something strange happened on the day of the burning...

"Oh, why do you think so much? Even if there is one, didn't it burn all the time? Now there is only carbon left on the ground. There is no unclean thing. You, you're so busy that you haven't had a good rest during this period, and you're so nervous. Anyway, you'll take advantage of these sick days to have a good rest."

My father nodded suspiciously. In fact, my father was a scholar. He had always scoffed at his grandmother's superstitious ideas, but he was a little confused recently. Maybe his father had shaken his beliefs for a while, but later he even criticized superstitiousness as a cult. Maybe he really believed in science, or maybe it was for other reasons.

The next half night, my father kept sleeping uneasy, which led to my mother not sleeping very peacefully. Even I seemed to be uncomfortable in sleeping. I cried several times in the middle of the night, either because I wanted to drink milk or wet the bed, or because I cried for no reason.

My father was actually quite injured. Although he had no skin, bones and no vital damage, his internal organs were greatly impacted. The factory also wanted to let my father stay at home for a while. I followed my father and was very active. If I rested at home, I had to find fun, and at least I had to find someone to chat and play chess. After all, I couldn’t play cards openly in front of my mother, so I went to play chess with the old village chief at the entrance of the village. The village had no village chief anymore. It was divided into Xicun and Dongcun. The captain of the two brigades was under the jurisdiction of the captain of Xicun. The captain of Xicun was a young grandfather. I can’t name the captain of Dongcun until now. The same is true for other Yan Villages, and all the captains were under the jurisdiction of the village committee.

The old village chief was idle all day long and played chess at the entrance of the village. My father still had two tricks to play chess. He taught me my chess. My mother didn't care about him too much. These days, a few people selling fruit seedlings came to the street. My mother thought of buying a ginkgo tree seedling on the street and carrying it in the small vegetable field at the door. This season, she could still eat some fruits. No one would take care of the fruits in this place. Ginkgo trees are easier to support and there is no need to take care of them on weekdays. So my mother went out to buy such a small fruit seedling.

At that time, there was a family selling flowers and trees in the village next door. This family would become a family that bound me for decades in the near future. My mother bought the saplings at their house. At that time, it was cheaper and it was bought back for ten yuan. However, their children could walk, although they were not talking smoothly, and they looked about one year older than me. My mother joked that she would let the two children play together in the future. I have to say that what she said was really accurate...

I bought a sapling and returned to the village. I saw my father playing games with the old village chief on the chessboard, and was about to kill everyone and fight to the death. Sweat was dripping on the chessboard, and even my mother hugged me and walked past him without even finding out. I recognized this person at that time. My father pinched his ear with his hands and found that his mother was behind him.

"Minfeng, I bought a ginkgo seedling and I planted it at the door."

My father looked at the chessboard wholeheartedly. At this time, he was forced into a dead corner by the village chief. He was trying every means to break through the siege, so he didn't think so much:

"Just buy it. After you go back and plant it, you will cook some food and bring it to you. I will eat and play chess with this cunning old man."

After hearing this, my mother smiled and hugged me and went home. The family was a farmer, and there was never a shortage of hoes, sickles and other farm furniture. At that time, because my grandmother left, she had no time to take care of these pigs, so she sent it to my uncle for him to raise. My mother took out a hoe from the pigpen. After all, it was a child from the mountains. Planting a tree was easy in my mother's eyes. She put me aside and brought me a toy for me to play with. At that time, my mouth probably could not be stuffed with a windmill, so my mother kept me on the ground with confidence, and it was hot and it would not catch a cold. Rural people would not care whether the ground was dirty or not, and whether it would be bad for the health.

It is not easy to plant a ginkgo tree between a cucumber rack and a tomato rack. What's more, although it was already autumn, the weather was still a little hot. The cucumber vines and tomato vines were not good. Did you cut your mother's arm and the hot weather, the tiny wounds were itchy and painful. When my mother planted the tree, there were at least a dozen shallow holes on her arm, and it felt sour and refreshing when she was touched with sweat.

My mother stood there with a hoe and rested for a while and wanted to see what I was doing, but found something amazing. The windmill was still there. Even though I could not walk, I disappeared. In the past twenty minutes of planting trees, a child who could not even climb and struggled to walk disappeared out of thin air?

My mother threw down the hoe and started looking for me. She also slowly began to think about the strange places. At first, she thought that it was the evil spirit underground who captured me in order to revenge our family and wanted to cut off the back or something. But soon my mother heard a different voice.

This sound comes from a place that should not be made, which is a small ditch in front of Xiaocaitian. Today, there is no water pump to pump today. It is logical that there is no sound of running water, but by chance, there are a rhythmic sound of running water coming from the small ditch.

My mother hurried over and took a look, and took a breath as soon as she saw it. Can you imagine the strange feeling of a child who couldn't even climb in the ditch, with his hands and feet still swimming? My mother was stunned at first, but when she saw me, she was about to swim to the end of the ditch and was about to go into the pipe, so she quickly carried me out of the ditch.

When I was hugging me, my face was ashen, but I didn't look like drowning or hypoxia. I didn't even cry. I looked at my mother harmlessly and showed a honest smile. This made my mother anxious or happy for a while. I picked up the hoe and carried me home, changed into clean clothes and crotch pants and put them in the cradle. The cradle was tall enough, and my mother also felt that I, a "monster", could not get out of it. So she wore an apron and went downstairs to cook for the father who was still fighting.

At that time, the rice cooker was not popular. I had to cook the stove and make a fire to cook in a big pot. Fortunately, there was a gas stove in the courtyard at that time, so it was quite convenient to cook. In about 40 minutes, the food was finished. My mother went upstairs to check and I was still in the cradle and brought the food to my father. I found that my father was already eating the food from the old village chief's house. It seemed that the old village chief was also a fan of chess, so he asked his wife to deliver the food. Fortunately, my father was a good child in the eyes of the village chief's wife, and he also prepared a portion for his father, otherwise my father would probably be able to eat the old village chief's family.

Unfortunately, my mother handed the food to my father, so my father changed from three dishes and one soup to five dishes and one soup. He chewed lunch while playing chess. My mother did not tell my father what had just happened. After all, nothing happened to me, and I couldn't disturb my father's interest in playing chess at this time, so my mother also went home for lunch.

I had to feed myself before eating, so my mother went upstairs to prepare to feed me, but again, I, the "monster", disappeared again. And I didn't hear the sound of water this time. My mother thought that it was broken, and the time I went out was not long or short, so she should take her out with me. I don't know where to go now.

When my mother was about to go out to ask my father for help, she heard my laughter coming from the toilet, a happy laughter from a baby. So she turned around and walked into the toilet. At this time, I was playing in the water basin, but fortunately there was not much water, and my face was also facing upwards.
