Chapter 143: Bronze Ancient Bell
HU Lao. The second daughter-in-law suddenly wondered, thinking that this old boy would not fall into the dung pit! I didn't drink before I went to bed!
His daughter-in-law shouted a few times, but when she didn't hear a response, she got up and went out to have a look.
It was a cloudy day that night, she pulled her slippers out of the bedroom door, the light in the living room was not turned on, so she wanted to take two steps to the left, and just wanted to reach out and press the headlight switch on the wall, but she slipped under her feet, and the person fell to the ground.
It was a minute later that she got up to turn on the light, and the sight in front of her made her scream and faint.
When she woke up, she didn't care about herself. Don't hang, run out of the door, shouting "help".
The neighbors who came to hear the sound saw Hu Lao. The living room of the two houses was full of bloodstains. The second was lying on the coffee table covered in blood.
The neighbor quickly called the police. The bureau rushed to the scene with a forensic doctor, and a few days later came to a conclusion: Hu Lao. There were dozens of wounds on the second body, and the murder weapon turned out to be a small metal fork for eating, and no trace of the second person was found at the scene. People are suicidal!
In the next ten days, people died strangely, and the dead people were all people who had participated in the salvage of bronze statues in the Yellow River, and the so-called death conclusions were all suicides.
"Suicide? It's all suicide? Believe it! ”
After Old Man Chen finished speaking, he smiled and turned around and went to the kitchen.
When the old man spoke, I paid attention to the changes in the expression on Liu Liwei's face, which changed from indifferent at the beginning to solemn.
"Brother, what do you think about this?"
Liu Liwei smoked a cigarette, and after being silent for half a minute, he asked me softly.
"It's weird! If the old man hadn't lied, the problem must have been with the bronze statue. After thinking for a moment, I added, "Although I know it sounds funny...... After going through so many things recently, doesn't Viagra think that there really is a mysterious force in the world that is difficult to explain? ”
After I finished speaking, Liu Liwei did not answer, but looked at me motionlessly, and his eyes did not blink for a full minute, and then he laughed.
"What's wrong, viagra? I know this...... But do you have a more reasonable explanation? ”
"Brother, you were born to be a criminal policeman!" Liu Liwei replied to me with a smile.
Confused, I was angry and anxious, and stood up with a "pout".
"Viagra, you ......"
"Brother, don't get excited, sit down!" Liu Liwei took out a cigarette, took out one and stuffed it into his mouth, paused and pulled out another one, and handed it to me. "There's one thing, I didn't have time to tell you - Team Leader Yang of the Provincial Special Case Team is contacting a secret organization, it seems to be called the 'Paranormal Research Society', and they specialize in this kind of thing."
Back at the water conservancy station, it was already half past two in the afternoon, Wu Jinghan called and asked Mr. Wu, saying that there was less than an hour away.
When several people came to the backyard warehouse again, Liu Liwei asked Yao Liguo: "After working on the Yellow River for 20 years, I haven't encountered anything like this?" ”
Yao Liguo smiled bitterly twice, and slowly replied: "There are many strange things in the Yellow River!" As for similar ......"
He was silent for more than ten seconds, and then continued: "There is really one thing, this happened twenty-five years ago, of course, when I first went to work, I listened to what the masters in the station said ....... ”
Twenty-five years ago, the Shengli Oilfield exploration team discovered that there was an oil lake underground in this area, and began to install oil racks and oil lifters to prepare for oil extraction.
When it comes to oilfield workers, I am actually angry, do not deny that in the sixties and seventies, they made great contributions to China's energy development, but later, especially after entering the nineties, this group of people became "moths", relying on high wages and good treatment, state-owned enterprises or iron rice bowls, and even "sons inherit their father's business", so they live in luxury and erosion, many oilfield children participate in work before the age of 20, and because of the nature of work, many couples can not live a normal life together after marriage, As a result, the relationship between men and women in your circle is super chaotic, and the divorce rate exceeds 35%.
The locals call them "oilfield devils", good things can not always be followed for a lifetime, and the life of oilfield workers in recent years has not been easy, not to mention low wages, and the system of "hereditary replacement" has been abolished.
Straight to the point.
In the 90s, after the oil field survey team erected the oil shelf, they prepared to build a steel bridge over the Yellow River to facilitate transportation.
After cutting off the Yellow River, they found a huge bronze bell in the silt, which, according to the old man he had seen at the station, was rusty and greenish-brown as a whole, and was carved with strange dark lines.
With the help of nearby villagers, the oilfield workers pulled the ancient bell to the shore, and then they found that the ancient bell was sealed, and if you look closely, the mouth of the bronze bell is poured with iron and lead, which is obviously not the original appearance of the copper bell.
Curiosity is a double-edged sword, and sometimes it kills people.
A few oilfield workers were curious, and stabbed a few times with wire cutters, poking a hole the size of a child's fist, and then a terrifying scene appeared.
Little white snakes came out of the hole, one, two...... At this time, everyone took more than a dozen steps back, and looked at them in a daze, and a total of hundreds of little red snakes crawled out one after another.
The snakes, with their pointed heads and spitting red herringbone letters, crawled towards the crowd.
There has always been a rumor that "the white snake is the son of the dragon king" in the local area, and most of the people in the village are in awe of the white snake, and they quickly disperse when they see this scene.
I don't know if it's a coincidence or not, but none of the people in the neighborhood were bitten by snakes that afternoon, but five or six oilfield workers were bitten by snakes.
These snake bites at first only felt numb and hard around the wound, and this feeling gradually spread to all sides, and after a few hours, the whole person became a "zombie", the person can only jump and walk, and the mind is completely lost, and when they see a living thing, they bite it, and more than a dozen workers were bitten overnight.
In the evening, the entire east bank of the Yellow River became a mess, crying and wailing one after another, and the ancient bell was discarded on the edge of the Yellow River, and no one dared to approach it again.
That night, the villagers of more than a dozen nearby villages heard a dull sound of bells, the sound of which was near and far, sometimes high, sometimes bottom, and some people heard that the dull sound was actually from the Yellow River.
Why are there bells in the Yellow River?
At that time, there was a fortune teller in the nearby mountain village, a blind old man, who was in his nineties at the time, and when he heard the bell, he ran out into the street that night, screaming and waking up the neighbors in the vicinity, asking them if someone had fished something from the river.
Someone told him right away. When the flow was intercepted yesterday, a bronze ancient bell was fished out.
The old blind man asked again if there were white snakes around the bronze ancient bell, and the people around him nodded in unison.
The old man trembled, knelt on the ground with a "plop", and kowtowed to the west, and when everyone was stunned, the old blind man stood up again, and told them to quickly send the ancient bell back to the river.
