Nannan could not help at the side, so she could only cry non-stop and walked with the adults to the parking lot of the funeral home.
Several people helped Xiao Yanran lie down in the back seat. Murong Shui then quickly started the car and urged: "Get in the car quickly, you guys!"
Chen Liangshan first stuffed his daughter into the leg space of the back seat, then looked at Xu Tiannan and said: "Tiannan, I can't go to the hospital. I'll leave it to you soon, Yanran."
Xu Tiannan said in surprise: "Ah? What's going on?"
Chen Liangshan said solemnly: "On the last night, I have to watch in the wake, otherwise Xiaoyue's ever-burning lantern..."
The everlasting lantern that Chen Liangshan talks about is a habit passed down from the older generation of people in Mobei City, that is, after the death of a loved one, they can be buried on the 3rd or 7th, but during this period, the deceased will be buried in the mourning hall.
Directly behind the crystal coffin is an ever-burning lamp filled with kerosene.
According to legend, the souls of loved ones will still wander around the world in the days after their death, and this ever-burning lamp is their guiding light, guiding them to take one last look at their loved ones.
Therefore, if the ever-light lamp stays on for a few days during the wake, the deceased will follow the light to find his or her loved ones and be reincarnated after taking one last look at their loved ones.
However, if the eternal lamp goes out, the deceased will be trapped in reincarnation, unable to escape from the "Six Desire Heaven", and will never be reincarnated.
Although this is a statement without scientific basis, as more people believe it, it naturally becomes a tradition, and it naturally becomes a rule established by people.
At this time, although the burn on Xiao Yanran's leg was getting more and more painful, she was still a woman who could distinguish priorities after all, so she endured the pain and said to Chen Liangshan: "It's okay, husband! I...I
Just go to the hospital with them, keep an eye on Xiaoyue..."
Chen Liangshan looked at the other party guiltily, then touched Nannan's head and warned: "Nanny, you must stay with your mother, you know?"
Nannan wiped her tears and nodded vigorously as a yes.
Xu Tiannan also quickly got into the passenger seat and urged: "Okay, Liangshan, just leave this place to me. Go back and look after Xiaoyue!"
…
A few minutes later, as Xu Tiannan's white car disappeared from sight, Chen Liangshan quickly returned to the wake room.
He first took out a large and heavy backpack from the corner of the room, and then filled up the kerosene for the ever-burning lamp behind Xiaoyue's crystal coffin.
After doing all this, Chen Liangshan gently opened the lid of the crystal coffin. A burst of cold air hit his face, but his eyes suddenly became moist and hot.
Because, in this cold air, Chen Liangshan smelled the smell of Liu Xiaoyue. It was a smell that he was familiar with, missed, and smelled like a family member.
At this moment, Chen Liangshan couldn't help but reach out and touch Liu Xiaoyue's face. On this cold, stiff, and well-behaved face, as if he was asleep, there seemed to be a smile on the corner of his mouth.
However, these cold lips could no longer call him "Dad".
After this painful memory, Chen Liangshan's heart was suddenly filled with endless anger. He finally kissed Xiao Yue's forehead and whispered: "Xiao Yue, dad will avenge you now!"
After closing the lid of the crystal coffin, Chen Liangshan opened the door of the wake room a little. He found that the private car that had been monitoring him these past few days was still parked on the roadside outside the funeral home, and it was still the same one without a parking line.
There is still no traffic police to control the area.
As expected, there must be two plainclothes policemen in the car watching him.
He picked up his cell phone and dialed Lin Aji's number. After the phone rang once, the other party quickly answered: "Brother Liangshan."
Chen Liangshan didn't say much, just whispered: "Start in 30 seconds."
"good."
Later, although Lin Aji was still on the phone with Chen Liangshan, she stuffed her phone into her pants pocket.
Chen Liangshan, while listening to Lin Aji's movements, tightened the large backpack behind him and stared at the position of the car.
Sure enough, nearly half a minute later, Lin Aji suddenly appeared at the intersection. She was wearing a helmet and riding an electric bike. After crossing the road at a very fast speed, she suddenly hit the ground.
Hit the butt of that private car.
There was a loud "boom". Fortunately, Lin Aji was wearing a helmet. At this time, her body followed the inertia and flew directly to the rear window of the private car, and then her whole body suddenly fell to the ground.
As expected, a man came out of the private car almost instantly and helped Lin Aji up from the ground.
This was also the plan between Chen Liangshan and the other party. He wanted to sneak out of the funeral home quickly while Lin Aji attracted the attention of the plainclothes police.
On the phone, Lin Aji was heard yelling exaggeratedly after falling to the ground, and at the same time, a man's voice came out.
"Girl, are you okay! You...why did you ride an electric scooter and hit my car directly?"
Lin Aji suddenly shouted: "Ah! Don't touch me!"
This phrase "Don't touch me" is actually the secret code used by Chen Liangshan to negotiate with the other party.
When Lin Aji deliberately used a car accident to attract the attention of the plainclothes police, she would observe the situation at that time. Once she thought that the other person's eyes were on her, she would say "Don't touch me".
This is the best time for Chen Liangshan to slip out.
After Chen Liangshan heard these words, he immediately prepared to leave, but when he was about to open the door, he suddenly stopped.
Because Chen Liangshan discovered that at the scene of the car accident, only the plainclothes policeman in the cab came out, and he remembered clearly that when he went out to smoke with Xu Tiannan the day before yesterday, he clearly saw two plainclothes policemen in the car watching him.
, one person each in the main and passenger cabs.
Oops!
Chen Liangshan thought to himself: The plainclothes policeman in the co-pilot must not have got out of the car, but continued to monitor him in the car, but Lin Aji probably didn't notice this situation, and that's why he said the secret code to him.
.
A few more seconds passed, and just when Chen Liangshan was hesitating whether to break out or not, Lin Aji's voice came over the phone again.
"Hey, you must be sick! You drove to the entrance of the funeral home alone at night, and didn't even turn on the car lights. In such a dark place, you must have come to touch me on purpose! I'm warning you not to touch me.
ah!"
When he was suddenly asked this question, the plainclothes policeman was at a loss for words and couldn't speak for a long time, but Chen Liangshan immediately understood the other party's intention.
Lin Aji is so smart. She was using deliberately quarrelsome language in an attempt to tell herself that there was only one person in the other person's car. She also said the phrase "don't touch me" again, which was a disguised reminder to herself to hurry up.
Set off.
"Good job, Aggie!"
Chen Liangshan muttered to himself, and then immediately rushed out of the wake room. At this time, he was less than 30 meters away from the scene of the car accident, and he could even clearly hear Lin Aji's deliberately complaining voice.
——"Hey! I'm talking to you! What are you going to do if you bump me into this!"
——"Look! My arm is broken! It's right here, right here, do you see it?"
——"And this! And this! Look, the front wheels of my electric car are damaged!"
——"Ah! My new helmet! One ear is missing. How are you going to compensate me?"
…
In less than half a minute, Chen Liangshan slipped out of the funeral home door without making a sound, then quickly turned around and walked towards the other side of the street.
Finally getting rid of the police surveillance, Chen Liangshan just put his mind down for less than a second and immediately picked it up again.
Because he knew that in the desolate woods around him, there was a man who was more terrifying than the police, staring at him.
