After a while, Niu Yuanpan brought a lot of people over.

In addition to the few families with the Niu family, other villagers who settled in Nanshan Village also had more people.

The wedding and funeral matters are all about you and I will help you.

Moreover, these people also knew the foundation of the Huo family, and knew that many of the yards they live in and the assigned land were owned by the Huo family.

If the Huo family wants to take it back, it will be a matter of one sentence.

It is benevolence and righteousness that the Huo family does not take it back; if it is taken back, it is natural.

Now who doesn’t know the name of the Chuzhou Army on Huainan Road?

In such a famine last year, if the Chuzhou army had not asked the local county governments to provide relief, these refugees would not have been able to settle in Nanshan Village.

The villagers were more grateful to the Chuzhou army while fearing it.

The Huo Wu family's yard is almost one acre of land, which is considered spacious. However, the villagers and Chuzhou military guards have a total of hundreds of numbers, and they are filled with them immediately.

When Huo Bao saw it, he said to Niu Aba Pan: "Uncle Aba Pan refers to two people going to Nanshan Village to tap the acupoints..."

Because he was thinking about moving the grave, Huo Bao came here this time and was accompanied by a Feng Shui master from Quyang County.

Niu Supan responded quickly, but did not call anyone else. He directly called his eldest son over and told him to take the Feng Shui master and dozens of people to the two beacons of Nanshan to read the acupoints.

"How many places to click?"

The Feng Shui master asked.

Niu Abacus looked at Huo Bao.

"The Huo family is located three places, one is in the second room on the east side, and two are in the four rooms on the west side."

Huo Bao thought for a while.

Aunt Huo Qi, Huo Baisui and his son belong to the second wife of the Huo family, and Niu Niu's parents belong to the fourth wife of the Huo family.

There are three graves in the Huo family yard, the small grave of Niu Niu's parents, the graves of the joint buried by the Huo Niu family in Nanshan Village, and the graves of the Lingshui soldiers.

The fifty guards brought by Huo Bao and some villagers who were twenty followed by the Huo family cemetery, and the rest began to attack in the yard.

The three pits were buried shallowly, and the remains were exposed after digging less than a meter down.

The remains were burned and could not be formed into human form. Many villagers looked at them with white faces.

Huo Bao had prepared a bone altar before, and first picked up bones for Niu Niu's parents.

Regarding that cousin, Huo Bao had no contact with him because he was too old, and only remembered that he was a cheerful man.

The intestines that were stabbed by the defeated soldiers were flowing out, because they were protecting their wife and daughter, bare hands and fighting against the enemy head-on.

Finally, I breathed a sigh of relief and asked Huo Wu, the cousin, to take care of his wife and daughter.

There is also Niu Niu Niu Niu, abandoning her daughter to sacrifice her husband is not advisable, but for a woman who lost her father, mother and son in the epidemic, her husband is the last support, and it is pitiful and pitiful that she cannot bear the pain of losing her husband.

Huo Bao sighed in his heart and covered the mouth of the altar.

Half an hour later, the pits where the villagers of Huoniu were buried together were dug almost the same as those where the soldiers were buried together.

The bones of the defeated soldiers will be moved to wasteland outside the village.

The remaining six people were buried together in the tomb, and the pit where Niu Niu's parents buried together was even more chaotic.

Big and small, black and white bones mixed together.

Several Niu family members were silent and looked at Niu's abacus.

Niu Aba Pan was a little helpless: "Xiaobao, can this... be distinguished?"

Last March, Lingshui soldiers broke into the village and killed seven villagers from Huo and Niu, and seriously injured one person.

The seven dead people were Niu Dalang's wife, Niu Lao gangster, three children of the Niu family, Huo Qi and his son, and one seriously injured was Niu Niu's father.

Niu Niu's father was seriously injured. After carrying him back to Huo Wu's family, he died after begging Huo Wu. His parents immediately sacrificed their lives to his husband, which caused two lives.

Among the nine people, Niu Dalang's wife was carried home by Niu Dalang and buried in her yard.

Niu Niu’s parents were in one place, and the other six were in one place, and they were burned separately.

It was not until Huo Shun passed by Nanshan Village that everyone was buried.

These six people are trapped in the cave, including the four Niu family and the two Huo family.

Huo Bao glanced at Niu Aba Pan and said, "I invited a coroner from the county government to identify..."

"The Book of Xiwen" mentioned "bloody reveals bones", which was denied by later generations and considered unscientific.

On the contrary, coroner, word of mouth, has some tricks to identify life and age.

Leave professional things to professionals.

The coroner in Quyang County was already ready and began to identify the bones.

There is a difference between men and women, and the first person to identify is Aunt Huo Qi's skeleton.

It was just burned, and only half of the skull and two tibia left were left.

What was later identified was the bones of the old gangster Niu. He was old and had osteoporosis, which was easier to distinguish than others.

The remaining four people were all young and strong, but they were always difficult to distinguish.

Huo Bao said: "Huo Baisui has an injury on his arm..."

But look at it, I just found a piece of humerus with bone fissures.

Huo Bao installed two bone ostensibly on this humerus, the previous skull and tibia.

The remaining three young and strong Niu family are similar in age and have no recognition, so it is difficult to distinguish.

Niu Supan didn't think anything and said, "Then let's bury it together!"

These two are both children of the Niu family. Their family members died and were buried together in the Niu family’s ancestral grave. They can still share some incense during festivals.

On the contrary, the old gangster Niu is here at the age of the age of the year, and his nephew, Niu Qing, will not worry about offering sacrifices in the future and can be buried alone.

Huo Bao remembered Niu Qing, but he wanted to stop talking before, and probably was full of entanglement with the old gangster Niu.

If it weren't for the old gangster Niu Qing who was killed by Niu Qing, Niu Qing died in the hands of a defeated soldier.

But if the old gangster Niu had not deceived Niu Qing's family of food, the Niu family would not have been weak due to tight clothes and food. No one except Niu Qing had survived the epidemic.

He is not only a life-saving benefactor, but also an enemy who harms his parents, siblings.

But Niu Qing was kind-hearted and finally thought that the dead were the most important, so he took out the money and asked Huo Bao to let the old gangster in the country.

The money was not much, only twenty taels. Huo Bao had already taken it out before and gave it to Niu Abacus.

Before, Huo Bao thought about cleaning up his own yard, so that the Huo family could have a place to stay when they came back to sacrifice.

But looking at the three pits in the yard, he couldn't help but shivered.

Even if you know there are no ghosts in this world, you can be cautious when you have buried so many dead people in the yard.

It is necessary to clean up, but it is not advisable to continue living.

When Huo Bao thought of this, he took out 100 taels of silver. Fifty taels of them asked Niu Baisui to help repair the house and yard. Fifty taels asked Niu Baisui to buy a meal and thanked the villagers who helped today.

Moving a grave is also a frivolous matter, and you need to eat a meal.

Niu Baisui waved his hand quickly and said, "Too many, too many, can't get so many..."

The food in the countryside is just four bowls and four plates, so why does it cost so much?

Moreover, when moving the grave today, there are not only the bones of the Huo family, but also the four Niu family members.

The Niu family also used half of the money for this supper table.

"The rest will buy rice and cloth, and each of the families who helped this time will give me some thank you!"

Huo Baodao.

Niu Baisui took it.

Reciting the rituals is a favor in the village, although this ritual is a bit more serious.

But now this year, seeing the summer harvest is hopeless, everyone is not having a good life.

The fifty taels of silver sent out to buy the table, and there are still more than forty left. There are two or three taels of silver for each family. The grain is enough to buy a few stones. This year, I will survive. If the bull is thick and the dough is thick, I will get this benefit.

But I bought a seat temporarily and had no time to go to the county to buy it, so I had to get it in the village.

There is money around, so everyone is happy to take out their own chickens and ducks.

I gathered ten chickens, ten ducks, four bacon, and five dried rabbits. The meat dishes were almost the same. The rest were cabbage, radish and other vegetables.

For a moment, not only the men in the village were busy, but the women in the village also began to work hard.

*

The back mountain outside the village is the blessed land of Huo Family.

Several new graves have been piled up and tombstones have been erected.

Huo Bao worshiped a few graves, and also worshiped the tombs of Mr. Huo and his grandfather, and then followed Niu Baishou to go down the mountain.

At this time, it was already Shin-zheng.

Huo Bao's personal guards, plus the male man from Nanshan Village, sat in a total of nine tables.

Huo Bao used tea instead of wine and thanked all the neighbors.

By the time I finished eating the table, it was already dusk.
Chapter completed!
