Chapter 246, Grave Digging
"Ding, 50% mission completion. ”
The system sounded a beep, and the reason why the people in the village were sick was not only the lack of water, but also the chemicals emitted by the workshop.
Li Yu frowned after listening to the system's prompt tone.
"Your ancestors were corpse chasers?"
"It's all a liar, how can there be any corpse that doesn't drive the corpse, but if you're interested, I can show you the family tree..."
Ye Dabao led back to the village and informed him first, saying that the water could not be drunk, and everyone's expressions were a little depressed and helpless, but they could only accept this fact.
If Li Yu said this, not many people would believe it, but if it was the village chief, everyone would believe it.
"This well is filled with water, it is no longer valuable..."Ye Dabao sighed.
After mobilizing the villagers to fill the well, Ye Dabao took Li Yu back to the house.
"I'll look for it... Oh, found it. ”
It's a gray book.,The cover page has long been yellowed and black.,Only the words on it can be faintly seen.。
There is some information recorded on it, which translates to mean that the family originally lived in Xiangxi, but due to the drought of the land, they moved north to this fertile place, but soon after, there was a drought here, and the people knew that their fate could not be violated, so they have been living and working here in peace and contentment, barely surviving.
The clansmen also tend to be frail and sickly, and there are not many long-lived old people, so that now, there are only a few elders in the entire village, and Ye Dabao is one of them.
"Alas, our village is also ill-fated... Sometimes we wonder if it is true that our ancestors did the business of driving corpses, which hurt the principles of heaven and caused our descendants to need to repay debts... Who knows, this kind of thing. ”
Li Yu suddenly thought of something.
Damnation.
Chase out the corpse and be punished by heaven.
The debts of the ancestors will be repaid by the younger generations - the debts of the father and the son will be repaid.
Droughts, water pollution in chemical plants, are part of the curse.
"Brother System, you said that the zombie territory, according to the law of conservation of energy and the like, zombies absorb the energy of the earth, and the earth is also losing energy... And the energy of the earth has a limit. ”
"Yes. ”
Li Yu turned to Ye Dabao and Ye Hui and said, "Is the drought range of this village emanating from your village as the center..."
"Hmm... I have approached the scientific crew to explore before, and I don't know why it is that the area within a radius of dozens of kilometers in this village is extremely arid, and the surrounding area is full of life. Ye Hui said helplessly: "I still remember the title at that time, it was called... Cursed Village. ”
"In a sense, this is indeed a cursed village, cursed by what your ancestors did..."
Li Yu groaned lightly, looked at Ye Dabao and said, "Do you want to end all this? Let the people in the village drink clean water, wash every day, and keep a clean body? Children will not die of deformity, and they will not get sick because of contact with unclean water sources..."
For people in the city, it's something that's just within reach, but for them, it's a wisp of fantasy, untouchable, unreachable.
After looking at this scene from afar, Ye Dabao said subconsciously.
"I want to think about it, I dream about it. ”
"Is it okay to pay any price for this?"
"Ahh Right... Ye Dabao hesitated: "But we don't have any money, it seems that we can't pay any price..."
"No, you can give it, as long as you are willing to do it. ”
Li Yu knocked on this piece of land with his foot, and then pointed to an open space in front of him with a stone tablet and wooden plaque.
"Dig up there. ”
......
"No! Absolutely not!"
"Village chief, this is the only thing that is absolutely not okay, you can let us be cows and horses for other things!"
"Village Chief, where is that... You should know, you have to think twice!"
As soon as these words came out, the whole village fell silent, and the original friendliness towards Li Yu turned into hostility, and even Ye Hui looked incredulous.
What is the place there?
There...
It's an ancestral grave.
Ye Dabao looked at Li Yu in disbelief and said, "You say... Do you want to dig up the grave of your ancestors?"
"Oh, it's your ancestral grave... Why should they be buried so close to the village? Li Yu first complained about the location of the ancestral grave, and then said: "Even if it is an ancestral grave, it must be cut off, if you really want the next generation to live well..."
This clearing is the center of the village.
A wasteland that extends from the center as a radius.
There must be something hidden here.
"Master, even if... Even if you have helped us, but the vast majority of us are definitely unwilling to do such a thing as digging the ancestral grave, we don't dare to risk the world to do this kind of thing..."Ye Hui is face is contradictory, one is the ancestor taboo, dare not offend, on the other hand, he believes Li Yu's words, after all, he knows that Li Yu is a [true Taoist].
Planing or not?
If you plan, you will be infamous on your back, but if you plan, you may also regain the vitality of the clansmen.
This is a very serious question.
Li Yu looked at Ye Dabao and respected their choice.
If they refuse, then Li Yu will...
Sneak in the middle of the night to dig.
Although it is very immoral to do this, looking at the children in the village who are excited because of a bottle of pure water, Li Yu knows that some things must be done... It's not because of the degree of completion of the task.
Just when the crowd was excited, Ye Dabao pressed his hand: "Everyone, don't be impatient..."
The village chief is still very prestigious, and as soon as the words came out, everyone was really quiet, but looking at Li Yu's expression, there was still no change.
"Everyone, remember, my granddaughter... That poor baby who was insulted and brutally killed by the gangsters..."
At this point, everyone fell silent.
This has always been a pain in the heart of the village chief.
"I can't wait to tear down the murderer's flesh and bones, but I can't help it, I don't know who he is, he has been running for many years, many, many years, I want to find him, but I can't find him. They can only be left to go unpunished. Ye Dabao took a deep breath and said: "Until one day, Huizi told me that the murderer was caught, I thought about being grateful and repaying my kindness, and I must repay this benefactor for everything I can do..."
"I won't let everyone agree to digging up the ancestral grave, but I agree to dig up my ancestral grave and show it to the master, here, I want to tell you that if it weren't for the master, we would still be drinking chemically contaminated water and polluting our next generation, and he has already helped us a lot..."
At this time, Ye Dabao sighed and said.
"I believe in the master, and I believe in reality even more, there is no water, we have to move the village, so that the ancestors will forgive us? No..."
