Ningjin, Hebei: Living cellar in the village

As soon as he shook, he has been away from your hometown for almost 30 years! With the passage of time, I found that my memory really seemed to be eaten by a dog, just like many things in the hometown of Dabei Su Village. Except for the big locust trees during the Kangxi period, the thrilling living cellar was left. It's ...

This living person's cellar walked south in the big locust tree, turned over the river mouth, and walked across the east of the river road: the land belonged to the third production team at the time.

Because I have been a mixed person who is not afraid of and is not afraid of the earth since I was a child, whenever I pass by here, I have to run to this living cellar, tiptoe from the small hole in the small hole, and look at the living carefully. The situation in the crowd, remember that there seems to be a soil, and there is a "Pavilion" that puts things, and there are two or two bowls ...

This is the word "cellar", which means to collect the cave or pit of things; as the name suggests, this living person cellar is the hole of the living person.

In what age is this living person cellar, no one knows it yet; I only remember that when I was in junior high school, the Chinese teacher Li Shengmao once preached to us: during the ancient times, when people were sixty years old, they could not see each other again. So it will be closed in this living person's cellar. The filial piety children will give meals on time, and the elderly will grow some time; if they meet their children and grandchildren, they will not send food, and the elderly will live alive and die alive. In the cellar ...

Teacher Li Shengmao also preached that a man who was a minister in the court, the emperor called them over, saying that a foreigner was a guy with a mouse, but his body was very large. The ministers pointed out what kind of species it was, but none of them knew it. So when this minister delivered meals to the dad in the living cellar, he talked about the troubles in his heart ...

The father said, tomorrow you bring a cat to the dynasty, and even the big mice are afraid of cats. Sure enough, the minister listened to his father's words and took a cat on the dynasty. The huge mouse suddenly shivered. The minister immediately pointed out: This is a big mouse ...

When the emperor knew that this was the idea of ​​the father of the minister, Zhao Xue Tianxue ended the history of "the 60 -year -old is not dead" ...

Speaking of the living cellar in the village, Chang Junbo, the younger village brother in Beijing, said: When I was young, I also saw this living cellar, but it was not what you said, but from the estuary of the sand. There is also a living cellar on the west side of the road ...

It seems that this Greater Bei Su Village alone is more than one living cellar. This shows that there is a distant history in Great Beibei Village.

yes! From the age of sixty, you can't see the cremation of the heavens and the earth, to the burial, and finally enter the cremation ...

During the period of cremation, the elderly in the village were very afraid and taboo, and clearly remembered a little feet in their eighties. I heard that they were the most afraid of being cremated at the time.

In the years when the height is thick, as long as we watched the old grandma with a crutch on the street, we shouted loudly: The crematorium in the front is cremating you!

At this time, the spirit of the grandmother suddenly glowed. First, she stood straight and threw the crutches in my hand to us, and then chased us ...

Of course, this old grandma will never catch up with our group of naughty girls, so we continue to shout in the happy laughter, while running ...

These laughter seemed to be echoing in the ears. The years have already made these stories and "living cellars", which has created yesterday and becoming history ...

The beloved father and old, dear friends and friends, have you seen a living cellar? Do you know the history of cremation? Have you ever heard of the legend of living cellars?
