Chapter 168, strange

And this kind of "tree of heaven", in the interior of China, some people regard it as a kind of "coffin tree", generally after the death of the Venerable Master's family, filial relatives will be buried in the body of the deceased in the coffin made of poplar trees, but it is not usually the poor peasant family can afford to use, but in the high-quality characteristics of this tree, it is rumored that "after death, lying on the coffin of the poplar tree, it is better to be a ghost than to be a human being"

As a result, some old people who are unfairly treated, suffer hardships, and are worried in the real world, hope that they will not be able to enjoy happiness in the world, and they will be a "rich ghost" in the underworld after death, so when they are old and weak, they will save money and save money, and after they die, they will sell the coffin made of this kind of tree, which is the so-called "coffin book" in the population

And this guard is in the poplar forest, disgruntled, leisurely wandering, he didn't know that the trees he saw on the flat ground just now, but only grew as tall as him, but the poplar trees here are growing so tall that people feel out of reach, the problem is in this place, this place has never been here, because the name alone can scare people enough, what is it called "Fierce Ghost Grave", for hundreds of years, the people who came to this place, there were some people who couldn't think of it, I have been tired of the world for a long time, and I feel that there is no hope to rely on in front of me, so I came here in despair and chose to commit suicide, and there are some crazy fools who are not very clear and have slurred their words, wandering for a long time, and unconsciously came to this place. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info ended up either dying here or missing.

A stream of miasma blew in the direction of the guard, and the guard felt that his mind was a little swollen at this time, dizzy, and his limbs were weak and weak, and he thought: he must be too thirsty to do this. He quickened his pace and walked forward.

A small stream appeared in front of him, and on the sandy bank grew some needlegrass, miscanthus grass, jade ribbon grass, cattails, and pieces of fallen leaves in the air

Gently swirling, on the surface of the water, one or two thousand eight hundred pounds of bloodstone embedded on the shore, some looked like an old man mourning on the sickbed, and some looked like a big toad with a puffed air bag.

The guard was happy in his heart, squatted on the shore, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he found one or two bloodstones on the shore, "Wow, bloodstone, it's really bloodstone, it seems that Lao Tzu is going to send it, I just said, what kind of person am I, how can I be with some bastards all my life, waiting for a half-old and immortal chairman, I will quench my thirst for a while, then find a rope and a burden, and secretly jump these pieces of bloodstone to the market town under the mountain, as long as I can find an antique shop, pawnshop or buyer, No matter what the price is, I sell it, and when I have the money, I will go back to my hometown and find a few seventeen or eighteen-year-old chicks to live, and the three wives and four concubines can enjoy endless happiness like the officials and gentlemen in the dynasty. ”

Bloodstone is a well-known ornamental stone, because this kind of stone, the gods are like dyed with blood, bright and dazzling, red color translucent, so since ancient times it is called bloodstone, in fact, it is a naturally generated deposit stone, but this thing is like a koi goldfish of all colors, rich in ornamental value, so people give this stone an extraordinary price, Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong are particularly fond of this stone, so there are a lot of offerings in the court, there is the reputation of the queen in the stone, It's hard to be so happy that this rat-eyed guard is about to jump.

The guard was confused, feeling that this was not real, and deliberately pinched his thigh, it was true, golden flowers appeared in both eyes, and he touched the back of the bloodstone over and over again, but he felt a sticky, thick feeling, stretched out five fingers to look up, the palm of his hand was stained with blood, and he smelled it with his nose, but there was a strong fishy smell.

"What's the matter, how can this be, how can there be blood," the guard began to be frightened, but after a while, his greedy nature calmed down, and thought: "This is a small flowing stream, and there are often roe deer, deer, and Shiba Inu in the mountains, and wild horses come up here to drink, and it is inevitable that some of them will be injured physically, and it is not surprising that blood stains have been left in it." ”

In fact, the guard's heart is also the same as the person who has come to this foothill to hunt for treasure because of greed for hundreds of years, he smiled hehehe, his eyes were full of greedy eyes, holding a water grass root, and sang leisurely, "Lao Tzu is going to make a fortune, make a fortune and marry a chick, the chick looks croaking, sticking gold and silver to sit on my big sedan chair, putting thousands of eight hundred tables of food and wine, seeing the chick my heart beats again----------。 ”

It was hard for him to be in such a mood, and after drinking the spring water in the palm of his hand several times, the guard opened his chest, revealing his white belly, and was about to lie down, but he saw that the spring water was flowing not far in front of him, but it was flowing in the same direction.

"It's strange, it's a bit mysterious, I remember, the place where the bastards drank the water just now, the spring water flows from west to east, but now the distance between here and there is not far, and it takes half an hour to walk, how the water flows from west to east."

Who knows that there is nothing less in life? The flowing water in front of the door is still in the west! The image of Su Shi Juxian's poem exists, China's vast territory will inevitably have some special terrain and landforms, but what is now in front of you is not what it looks like here, the guards have little knowledge and short-sightedness, thinking that they are greedy for money and love treasure but they have not left the place where strange images frequently appear as soon as possible.

There are a few lotus flowers blooming on the stream, the dew on the floating lotus leaves is shining faintly, the spring water flowing from east to west is swirling, and suddenly a small fish emerges under the lotus leaves, and suddenly it becomes the eyes of the guard, he leans down to look at this small fish, which looks red all over the body, extremely bright and beautiful, but the color under the belly is snow-like color, and the bulging cheeks are open and closed, and the color on it is even more rare, with a hint of pale yellow, Two small eyeballs, glittering and emitting mist like pearls, a long flower flag attached to the beautiful fins, the scales on the back are clearly distinguishable, and the swimming posture is very graceful and expressive.

"Oh, it's a rare little fish, this place has all kinds of rare treasures, is it that God is taking care of me, and wants me to make a fortune," the guard thought beautifully, and broke off a branch in his hand, and drummed the ripples, to chase this little fish in the water.

The little fish swam upstream, the guard didn't think much about it, and walked blindly, unconsciously, but when he came to a pine and cypress, the pine and cypress trees grew extremely densely, which can be described as covering the ground, covering the sky and the sun, the guards were inside, the criss-crossing branches of the pine and cypress trees were reflected in the back of the clothes, but it looked like long sharp teeth and sharp claws, just as the branches of the pine and cypress trees slowly lowered and wanted to touch the back of this man, he had a body forward, At this moment the little fish of the stream stopped swimming on the edge of the shallow sand, ran aground, and pounded its cheeks.

"Hehe, it's not that Lao Tzu has been caught, look where you still want to run" When the guard stretched out his hand to grab the little fish in his hand, there was an extremely sad cry from behind, the sound was like a baby still in swaddling clothes, "What" The guard shuddered in his heart, slammed his head, and the voice suddenly disappeared, "It turns out that I heard it wrong, it's okay."

The small stream in front of him seemed to have something stirring up the dirt, the guard turned around, and screamed "Ah", it turned out that a monster full of tentacles came out of the mud, two big eyes like the lid of a can, gurgling and turning, the whole body was full of some unpleasant and viscous juice, liter, the transparent body was sticking to some films, and the big mouth was dripping with saliva, and there were still some very small and sharp teeth inside, It looks like a fleshy mushroom, but it's actually a demon that kills people without blinking.

The guard was so frightened that his legs couldn't stretch out, and he suddenly collapsed on the shore of the sand, and with a "bang", the monster opened its big and ugly mouth, and swallowed the guard's entire head, and the guard's two big hands were like wounded pigeon wings fluttering in the air, and suddenly, some bloody hair and white flowers were squeezed out of the big monster's mouth, and the blood stained this small stream red. But the guard didn't seem to be breathing yet, and the head of the person cut off from the air still came out of his throat and made a "whine" sound.

Maybe people's lives are sometimes more fragile than a small grass, but sometimes, especially in the face of a dangerous situation, at the critical juncture of nine deaths, the energy that bursts out is unexpected, the guard's whole head is caught in the monster's mouth, the blood is like a column of water, but the limbs are still dying, the monster's jaw is a long fleshy neck at the beginning, the guard's two feet stepped on his neck, and with the last force of a kick, he can still break the head out of the monster's mouth.

This guard can only be described as a blur of flesh and blood, his cheeks are full of traces of deep teeth left by monsters, and blood gushes out of each trace, but at first glance it looks like thousands of bloody earthworms are crawling, devouring his facial muscles, a bloody scalp has been lifted in half, looking down down the sky, maybe you can also see his wrinkled, like salted old dried vegetables**, one of the eyeballs on his face was pulled out by the monster's tentacles, at first glance, only blood-red pieces of flesh, His back was covered with his own peeling hair, and his left ear was gone, and the ear hole was filled with blood.

"Uh, uh" The guard spat out blood one by one, sending out a weak breath, his elbows were still trembling, but one of his eyes on the right could still show things, perhaps the greatest torture in the world was nothing more than Si, the human body was in extreme pain, and when he was still breathing, he still had great fear in his heart, the guard was like this, before he died, he also saw that not far ahead, there was an extremely deep and dark cave, The air in the cave conjured up again and again the scenes of the desperate struggle of some people who had suffered here for hundreds of years before they died. There is also a cave in front of the original place, the terrain is relatively low, and the water source is left here from east to west, and this cave does not know how many ghosts and ghosts have accumulated, the stream flows in the cave, and it has become a pool of black blood, the legend is that people are about to die, and they can always see things in their eyes when they are awake, and the guards used their last strength to shout "ah".

In the cave, a devil dressed in a white cloth robe and covered with a black cloth stretched out his long tongue to encircle the guard's body, dragging him to the cave, where the stream was restored to life.

"You hear, how did I hear a voice from the direction of the ruined nunnery just now, is there someone over there?" Ah Xing's guard stood up and spoke.

"How can there be, Ah Xing, did you hear it wrong, why didn't we hear it, it's just you." Said the guard next to him.

Ah Xing nodded, "Yes, Brother Ming, where has he been, now that Mr. is about to get up, why haven't you seen him coming, could it be that something happened." ”

"What's going on, Chen Xu is hard for you to think about which bastard, didn't you still have to fight with him just now, why do you care about him now, it's best that he doesn't appear in front of our eyes, out of sight." A guard in his forties said.

Ah Xing said: "You can't say that, although he is a little bastard, but he has been with us for a while, it is said that he is still more responsible, why is it this hour, and I haven't seen him appear." ”

A person next to him said: "Hey, don't pay attention to him, some time ago, he always had a bad temper, always clamoring to go back to his hometown, not with us rough people, can he be walking on the road, moving his crooked mind, maybe he slipped away halfway." ”

"Yes, yes, maybe that's the case, maybe this stinky boy has been away for more than ten years, and he has long wanted to go back to his hometown, thinking about the garlic in front of his door, people in the Northeast are like this, and the local complex is relatively heavy, doesn't he go home every year."

"It's better that this is the case, the cries for help from the blessed mountain are not his," the A-star guard muttered from his mouth.

The housekeeper sat on the Jinhua sedan chair and rested, a burst of phoenix mixed with all kinds of fragrant flowers blew lightly, the housekeeper was a little sleepy, suddenly took a nap, almost accidentally inserted in the soil, stood up in a hurry, walked to the stream and held a slap of spring water, wiped his face, sobered up a lot, stood on tiptoe, covered his forehead with his hand, forgot the past in the distance, and soon became angry in his heart, scolding and scolding, "Bastard, but he is a bastard, he has not seen any people in the world, Don't look at what kind of person my husband is, the dignified dynasty first-class master, the feng shui master of Ancan Township, Tongshui Town, said that he would wait for our husband here, in the end he was a hillbilly who did not believe his words, but on the contrary, let us wait here

I'm on him, and if he comes, I'll scold him while he's sleeping in the car, so that he can see him for a long time. ”

Suddenly, there was a puff of dust and smoke on the mountain road ahead, and a man riding a fast horse, with a kettle hanging on his left shoulder and a burden on his right, rushed towards this side, as the butler expected, this man was the feng shui master they had been waiting for here.

"Shhhhh

People around them think that this kind of person can also be a feng shui master, and he can too, but the old housekeeper doesn't think so, in the end, he is still a person who has read a lot of sage books, and he can be regarded as a slightly literary character, in the early years, Mr. Chairman was in the camp to help Mr. Chairman in the camp to give advice, this person thinks that people can not look good, the sea is not immeasurable, maybe this person is ugly, but has extraordinary skills, In ancient times, Pang Tong Pang Shiyuan, whose name was Fengxiao, and Zhang Song, a subordinate of Xichuan Liu Zhang, were not very capable, knowing astronomy and geography, and they also had the ability to never forget.

But this time it's not like this, this feng shui gentleman's appearance and talent are almost at the same level, this person is a villager in Pingshui Township, Hongyang Town, since he died of his father since he was a child, there is no one to control, follow the township ruffians and hooligans to live, every once in a while is not stealing chickens or touching dogs, not stealing other people's money, or climbing the wall to be a thief, just like a scoundrel, neither can understand the world, nor do business to make money to live, all day long, idle, The elders in the township hated him very much, and the neighbor's children ran away when they saw him, and then because they molested a widow in the village, after being denounced, they let more than a dozen young and strong villagers fight for a while, and everyone told him to get out of the village, and threatened to beat him once he saw him, this scoundrel had no choice but to escape from the village, and disappeared for several years, but later appeared in the neighboring village of Pingshui Township, and people asked him where he had gone all these years, and he claimed that he had gone to Hengshan, one of the nine famous mountains in Hunan Province, Visited a heaven and earth omniscient, personnel strategy know-all, unique wisdom of the Taoist learned the essence of the arts, the locals also believed it to be true, have found him to find a feng shui cemetery for the deceased relatives, or for the living to inspect the residential feng shui, this scoundrel with his own boastful talk, mouth like a river, slowly became famous, in fact, this person has no real ability, but has a unique set of unknown people to say human words, see the ghost to say nonsense skills.

"Let Mr. wait here, it's really damned, the villain will make amends to Mr. for his crimes, can't make amends," Feng Shui Master Shigong said politely

The old butler glanced at him, and said, 'You boy, you are embarrassed to say, you know what a noble man my husband is, why did you delay coming, but let us wait for you here.' ”

The feng shui master arched his hands and said, "Sir, please forgive the villain, I didn't deliberately prolong the time I came to the appointment, but the villain himself is not familiar with this section of the mountain road, and he got lost in the morning, so it is really wrong for the villain to come now------."

What do you say you don't know this section of the mountain road, in fact, this feng shui gentleman is talking nonsense with his eyes open, Tongshui Town Ancan Township is away from this red mountaintop, at most it is only a day's journey, although it is remote and deserted, but the people in this town have heard of this place, including this feng shui master, in fact, the reason why he came belatedly is that he has long heard that this red mountain top is a mysterious ghost, a place where strange things have happened, and he often goes to the restaurant, goes to the restaurant, eats, drinks and has fun with pig friends and dog friends, I heard that he came to the appointment, They all persuaded him not to disregard their lives in order to make money, this place is an extremely dangerous and unpredictable place, for many years, no one has ever set foot in this place, this is also a common thing in Ancan Township, Tongshui Town, you can't know that there are tigers in the mountains and prefer to go to the tiger mountains. After hearing his friend's words, the feng shui master was also scared and depressed, but then he weighed it in his heart, as long as he was playing tricks, there was this chairman who was in charge of big money and rich and sent ten taels of gold to the door, and what kind of person is Mr. Chairman, even if it is the government office, the official in the county has to pat him on the back, and people invite him, this is to look up to himself, if he doesn't come, he is not interested.

Although this feng shui master is a hooligan ruffian, a villain in the market, but also often go to the Zhuangyuan Street in Phoenix Town to listen to the blind man tell the story, he remembered that the famous doctor Hua Tuo of the Three Kingdoms was because he repeatedly found excuses to go to Cao Cao's mansion to see a doctor for him, and offended Cao Cao, and finally went to prison, died tragically in prison, think about it is afraid, and there is an old saying that "the people do not fight with business, business does not fight with officials" If you should not be Mr. Chairman today, maybe your good life will come to an end, In the future, it may be a problem to even gain a foothold in Tongshui Town, think about it, "not necessarily the legends that people say are true, maybe these rumors are people deceiving themselves, in broad daylight, what is dangerous on the top of the red mountain" may really do this thing of Mr. Chairman, he will be able to make a big reputation, and someone will send money to sit at home in the future, so why bother with fame and fortune. ”

And how did the old housekeeper know whether what he said was true or false, and his attitude and look were still full of sincerity, so he also nodded and rushed to the official authority,
