Chapter 177: The Camera of Terror (7)
"What's wrong?" I heard the hesitant voice of the Taoist chief, and my heart unconsciously beat a drum.
"It's been more than ten years in Jincheng, and I've heard a lot of all kinds of ancient and modern anecdotes in this neighborhood, this bungalow area, there are two incidents related to the well, there is a similarity, the people related to these two things, so I can't confirm which one it is, or...... Is there another story? As he spoke, he took me by the arm and led me to a place where I could sit.
After adjusting his posture and sitting down, he felt a cold stone table in front of him, which should be an activity area like a small park.
"Dao Chief, what exactly are those two incidents?" After I sat down, I asked the Taoist.
I heard the Taoist sitting on a stool across from me, and he spoke softly.
Qianyun Daoist was not originally from Jincheng, but he was introduced to Jincheng by someone who was destined to go to Qingyunguan and began to cultivate, and it was in the year that Qianyun Daoist came to Jincheng, he heard about these two things.
Both of these things happened in the bungalow area, and they were all told by the Taoist chief to the local elders.
The first thing is called the attention incident by the locals, I remember that there is a saying in Jincheng, telling the marriage not to learn to pay attention, I didn't understand the meaning of this sentence before, I know that the Taoist told me about this attention incident, I know the meaning of the original sentence.
It happened during the Republic of China, probably in 1930, when the famine was very serious, how many people were desperate, starved to death, and sold their children and daughters-in-law for food.
The hero of this first thing lived at that time.,His family was quite rich in that environment at that time.,At least not hungry.,Even the wife and son of the family can have a maid to serve.。
The eldest son of this family, named Liu Hanqing, is a fashionable person who has studied abroad, and when the famine was at its worst, he happened to come back from abroad, but he was not afraid that he would suffer if he came back if he had money.
It is rumored that it was those rare sunny and comfortable days in the past few years, this Liu Hanqing was stopped by a woman when he rushed to his home, and he sent someone to inquire about it, and only after sending someone to inquire did he know that it was really difficult for their family to afford to eat, and they wanted to pawn something to exchange some food for people from such rich families.
This woman's name is Liu Xin, she is also desperate, thinking that if the man in the suit and leather shoes in front of her takes a fancy to herself, then her father and mother will have rations to eat, but if not, the family will starve to death in the cold kiln!
But I didn't expect that after learning about the situation, Liu Hanqing didn't ask for any compensation, and directly asked someone to move food to Liu Xin's house.
Liu Xin's family was saved, and even when the food was about to run out, Liu Hanqing would send someone to deliver food, which moved this simple girl to tears, a few years later, the famine passed, and Liu Xin met this Liu Hanqing again.
Later, the two came together, which can be said to be a good story, but on the day of their wedding, the Japanese army invaded their town, and the richest Liu family in the town became the first to be harmed.
I heard that on that day, Liu Hanqing, who had always looked gentle and elegant, suddenly changed as a person, like a dog's leg, offering the invading Japanese army like an ancestor, and even asked the bride to serve them.
"The poor girl who was tortured that day was neither a ghost nor a ghost, and ran out in the middle of the night and jumped into the well." The Taoist chief sighed for a while.
I also feel very sorry for this girl after listening to this story, but I can't understand why this Liu Hanqing, who was a very gentleman before, suddenly became like that?
"Then why do they say that you can't learn to pay attention when you get married?" I remembered that phrase.
"If you recognize people, you have to recognize people, although you have to repay people, but if you don't recognize people, you can take a lifetime ......," the Taoist chief said in a low voice.
I nodded, I am not ladylike when I meet someone, this is probably what those parents with daughters are most afraid of.
"And what about the second thing?" I calmed down my regret for Liu Xin and asked the Taoist.
"Second thing......
The protagonist of the second event is a young boy, born in the sixties of the last century, and died at the age of 13.
The reason why he became famous was because of an anthology, the little boy was a famous prodigy in the town in that era, and he just could talk and pondered oil poems by himself, and slowly became famous in the neighborhood, but this child was not born in the right era, he was at that time, just in time to catch up with the ***** period, his parents did not dare to train him to read more, but this little prodigy relied on a book that a storyteller in the neighborhood said every day to enrich his knowledge, and later followed the storyteller to read and write, and also learned to write his own articles.
His parents were afraid that they would be found, so they either secretly burned or secretly threw away the things he had written, and then suddenly one day the investigators came down, and in a panic, the boy's parents threw all his belongings into the well, and when the investigators found their home, it happened that the little boy also found that his things were thrown into the well.
After a cry to no avail, not one of them jumped into the well without thinking, and the inspectors were outside, and they did not shout loudly, and the poor child drowned like this.
After communicating with the scene for a while, we all agreed that the story about this well must be the first story, because this camera is more likely to have something to do with the first story, at that time, plus a large family is likely to have this thing, even if not, it is very reasonable to take pictures on the day of the wedding, and the little boy in the back does not seem to have any direct connection with this camera.
After a while, I heard footsteps that approached us closer and closer, and then stood directly next to me.
"Boss Tang."
It was Uncle Qi's voice.
"Uncle Qi?! Why did you come to me, didn't you just say you didn't know me? Is something wrong? I heard his voice very surprised, why did the person who said he didn't know me just now take the initiative to find me?
I didn't think about people badly, I just thought that Uncle Qi might have some scruples just now.
"Boss Tang, did you see me just now?" Uncle Qi's voice was also surprised.
Hearing this, the Taoist and I both let out a sound of surprise.
"Impossible! It's impossible not to see it......"
"If something happens to my family, how dare I live here again! When I came out of your store that day, I went back to my own house and stayed there......" Uncle Qi said.
"And who did we just meet? I can only hear the voice, it's really Uncle Qi's voice, yes......"
