Chapter 264: The Secret of the Ancestral Hall (Part II)
Rong Rong and I stood at the gate of the temple for a long time, but we didn't find any abnormalities, including the people in the village.
Although this group of people is here to hunt for treasures, they don't see anything valuable in this ancestral temple.
The people of the criminal clan in the village did not see anyone, nor did they find anything missing, so they dismissed everyone and closed the door of the ancestral hall again.
"Those people didn't come out all night, they should be in that secret tunnel."
Rong Rong nodded slightly, and said, "And there must be some connection between this secret path and the white pagoda, I still remember that the old man said at that time that the master suddenly appeared from this ancestral temple after he disappeared." ”
"That's not right, it wasn't dark at the time, and your uncle and his party left overnight, how did the old man know that he came out of the ancestral temple?"
"This ...... According to him, it was the sudden appearance of this group of people that caused a lot of movement, and although the people in the village had already rested at that time, there were still good people who saw it. ”
Rong Rong and I went back to the house.
"Then there is another question, is the descendant of the female corpse still in the village?"
"I also asked this question, the descendants of the female corpse have already moved to the city, but I learned from the old man's mouth that this female corpse is also a member of the criminal family, called Xingyue."
"But how could this female corpse be crushed under the road?"
"Why don't we go down that old road? It is said that the road still exists, but it has been abandoned for a long time. ”
I nodded, and the two of us headed out for the path. This road is on the mountain, but now that there is a winding road, this road has not been visited again.
It's a road, but it's just a simple way to pave it with some stones. In some places, there are no stone bars, the roads are bare and covered with unmelted snow, and there are large and small graves on both sides.
"It doesn't look like this road is completely unwalked."
As I walked along the road, I found a mound on the side of the road. The mound was next to the roadside, and it was overgrown with weeds because it had not been tended for a long time.
There was no trace of human activity on the mound, and if I hadn't known in advance that there was a mound on the side of the road, I would have thought it was just an ordinary mound.
Rong Rong and I were standing on the path in front of the mound, and the place under our feet should be the place where the body was buried. The stones on the path were also noticeably different from the surroundings, and it was clear that they had been refilled.
"That's how it should be."
I looked up and said this place wasn't a good place. Although there are large and small burial mounds all around, it is the only one that is right in the center of a depression, which means that the groundwater around it is concentrated here.
In addition, the female corpse was not well sealed in the coffin, but was completely exposed to the soil, so the corpse was directly immersed in water.
The corpse has been corroded by water, which is completely equivalent to a water prison for the soul of the female corpse, trapping it in this place for eternity. The road was built to find a problem, which in a sense saved the soul from the water prison.
However, due to the accumulated changes, the souls that were rescued at this time had already been fascinated by resentment and lost their minds.
"I suspect that the descendants of this female corpse must have people with disabilities."
I nodded slightly.
"This must have been calculated by the masters, but this is a thing that damages yin morality, if it weren't for some deep hatred, it wouldn't be ......"
Just as I was chatting with Rong Rong, I suddenly felt a chill behind my back, as if there was a pair of eyes staring at me behind me.
But when I subconsciously turned around, I found that there was nothing behind me except for some dead trees.
"What's wrong with you?"
I shook my head a little uncomfortably and said, "I just felt like someone was staring at me. ”
She looked around, but still didn't notice anything. At this time, I subconsciously tightened my clothes, only to feel that the neighborhood was gradually getting a little cold.
"It can't be anything dirty, right?"
I turned on my consciousness and looked around, but I didn't find anything.
At this time, the sun was already setting, I patted Rongrong's shoulder and said, "It's not early, let's hurry up and go down the mountain." ”
With that, we turned around and headed down the mountain. But just as I was about to step away, I slipped and almost fell.
And when I stabilized my body and looked down, I noticed that the stone under my feet had grown green moss for some reason.
You know, it's winter, how can this thing grow on this stone for no reason?
I looked at Rong Rong standing in front of me in shock, and Rong Rong was obviously a little confused by these green mosses.
"Something is wrong, let's get out of here, there must be something here."
On the way down the mountain, since I opened my consciousness, I could see that most of the graves in the vicinity were standing with lonely spirits and wild ghosts. These ghosts are not necessarily the owners of the tombs, and most of them are ghosts from the neighborhood who are staying overnight.
Interestingly, however, the area was surrounded by lonely spirits and ghosts, but there was nothing around the desolate grave of the female corpse.
"There must be a problem, there must be a problem with the grave of the female corpse."
It was already dark when we came back from the mountain, and the old lady had already prepared a meal for us. I've been eating and living here for the past few days, so Rong Rong and I discussed leaving 2,000 yuan for the old man's room and board when we left.
After dinner, the old lady went back to bed early, and Rong Rong and I were ready to take advantage of the night to go to the ancestral temple to find out.
To be on the safe side, we were ready to leave after midnight.
Since there was nothing to do during this time, and the signal in the village was not good, Rong Rong and I could only look at the window in a daze.
At this time, it was already pitch black outside the window, except for the miserable white moonlight, there were black shadows that flashed from time to time. At midnight, the yin energy rises and the yang energy sinks, everyone is sleeping peacefully, and those things can come out and move freely.
"I didn't expect there to be so many ghosts in such a remote village."
Rong Rong nodded slightly.
"I always felt that something was wrong, but I couldn't think of anything wrong for a while."
"You mean at the Grave in the afternoon?"
"That's right, the aura around is very weird, you think about the yin qi there is so heavy, but you don't see anything unclean around...... It's weird. ”
