Chapter Eighty-Four: The Dry Bone Stake

"Who are you?"

This man looked terrifying, but I didn't see the slightest hint of evil in his body.

In other words, he is human.

It's just a little abnormal, like half crazy and half stupid.

"Who am I?"

The old man stared at me, a puzzled look, and a little hideous.

"Tell me, who am I?"

"Pull me up, and I'll tell you."

Sure enough, he was a madman, and my hanging heart was a little lowered.

"Do you really know who I am?"

The old madman's vigilance was quite high, and he didn't reach out at the first time.

"Not only do I know who you are, I also know where your home is?"

"You didn't lie to me?"

"Pull me up, listen to me, and you'll know if I've lied to you."

"Okay."

Nodding, the old madman warned me again: "If you blind me, I will eat your flesh clean." ”

"Yes."

Seeing the madman's hand reach out, I grabbed it and went to the top of the bunker.

Facing his frightened gaze, he raised his hand and punched out the two sigils of An and Zhen.

The former has the effect of calming the mind and calming the mind, and the latter has the ability to calm the soul.

The moment I shook hands, I knew the reason why this old man was half crazy and half stupid.

Scare!

The huge fright caused the convulsions of the Shen Yuan, as long as the qi veins were straightened out, the blessing of the two seals could be recovered.

Of course, it will also need to be supplemented with medication in the future.

After a while, the old man came to his senses.

Look at the village, look at yourself, and after a long memory, you cry.

After a long time, it gradually calmed down, and we took out the two intestines that we had not eaten, and we sat down on the top of the sand dune.

After some conversation, I learned that the old man's name was Lu Weimin, who was from this village, and had a deep relationship with Wei Jianjun's father, Wei Hongqu.

The two grew up together in open crotch pants, and then got married on the front and back feet, and because of one thing, they embarked on two completely different paths.

At that time, they lived in poverty, so they were extremely nervous about food and clothing, especially in the second year of their marriage, there was a big drought.

And that drought was extremely weird.

The water in the Hetao was completely empty overnight, the grass and trees in the mountains were all dried up, and even the wells in the village were at the bottom.

Just when people were panicking, a wandering Taoist priest came here, and after seeing the tragedy, he said that it was a drought and a haunt.

At that time, the people's wisdom had been opened, and naturally no one believed it, so the Taoist priest could only find a way to prove it to them.

The Taoist priest said that the drought is a monster turned into a dead person within a hundred days of death.

The three most striking features are that the corpses do not decompose, that no grass grows on the graves, and that water seeps outward.

Because the droughts will carry water to their homes at night, they will continue to pick up water within a radius of several miles.

Moreover, if the drought is not removed, it will not rain in the sky, and there will be no water when the well is drilled.

The crowd was skeptical, so they searched for it, and sure enough, they found a new grave in March that met the requirements in the mountains.

In this way, there is only one way to go, dig out the mardles inside, and burn them to fly ashes.

That is what the folk often say, playing dry bone piles.

This kind of thing, where do ordinary people dare to make it up?

As a last resort, the whole village raised funds and offered a heavy reward.

Wei Hongqu and Lu Weimin have been in charge of the wild since they were children, and their lives are very hard, so they took over this errand and followed the Taoist priest into the mountain.

That night, the whole village was too frightened to go out, and they heard the terrifying screams and saw the clashing fireworks and bright lights. When the rooster crowed, it began to rain in the sky.

The drought ghost was killed by the Taoist priest and went to the east of the village to light a fire, but the ashes were dead and heavy, the wind could not blow, and the rain could not disperse.

The drought fish carry dry fire to do evil, and it must be reconciled with yin energy, so there is that forest of four yin trees.

For the people in the village, the death of the drought means the end of the matter, but for Wei Hongqu and Lu Weimin, they have to make another decision.

They are stained with the cause and effect of burning the drought, so they will inevitably incur retribution, and it is okay to change their lives against the sky, but they must pay a high price.

In exchange for the peace of the offspring after thirty years, otherwise the whole family will suffer calamity and the incense will be cut off except for himself.

Just won a large bonus, looking forward to the future life, in an instant facing the deprivation of life after thirty, the gap is so big, the two are naturally extremely reluctant, even unwilling to believe.

But they had seen the drought and the methods of the Taoist priests, and they had to make a difficult choice.

Eventually, the two went down very different paths.
