Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Corpse Well
There is something wrong with this matter, the bones of the ten children have been invited out, it stands to reason that such a thing will not happen, why at this time, Lao Zhao has a problem again.
Everyone was drinking and eating just now, and I didn't pay attention to who went out and who didn't come back.
Lao Zhao's body is already weak, although I help him recover his soul, but this kind of thing is basically like recovering from a serious illness, very weak, plus his soul is not very stable, it is easy to be given by those things.
Now, this is certainly the case.
Everyone stood at the door of the board room, you looked at me and I looked at you, no one paid attention.
Kaohsiung looked at me with a solemn face, and this responsibility must fall on me again.
I took the flashlight and told everyone to wait here, even if they were to go, they might not dare, and I really don't know what the situation is over there.
Listening to Lao Zhao's complaining cry, I slowly approached with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and when I came to the mouth of the brick kiln, I saw Lao Zhao holding his orchid fingers, wiping his tears, sitting on the brick kiln and crying endlessly.
My eyes can see things that ordinary people can't see, that Lao Zhao has a resentful spirit wrapped around his body, which belongs to a kind of wild ghost.
This kind of resentful spirit is generally asked for by others, so it will use the method of ghost upper body to attract the attention of others, but Lao Zhao's body can no longer support the upper body of the yin ghost.
"What do you want?" I looked at Lao Zhao and said lightly.
Hearing my voice, Lao Zhao stopped crying and looked at me with a resentful expression.
"You have shattered my dwelling place, and my ghost has nowhere to settle but to possess this man."
I shattered her abode?
It's hard to be, it's a statue of the kiln god.
I frowned slightly, she was just a wild ghost and a resentful spirit, how could she live on the statue of the god of the kiln.
"If you let him go first, and then delay it, it will not be good for him, and it will not be good for you, I can give you back your place to live, but you must release him immediately."
The spirit looked at me and began to weep, not paying any attention to my words.
This is a test of my patience, the ghost pestle in my hand spreads, and the golden runes flicker.
"I'm saying it, I'll give you a place to live, but don't challenge my patience and leave his body."
This resentful spirit saw that I was going to move seriously, and left Lao Zhao's body, I carried Lao Zhao's body to the board room, and came to the brick kiln again.
I am a person who is hard to follow, and since I promised the other party, I will not deny it.
"Little Xianggong, the slave died a miserable death."
I stood here and listened to the bitter water poured out by the spirits.
This resentful spirit is a person in the Song Dynasty, this land was originally a village, the whole village to burn bricks to live, and later the court took a fancy to this land, and built an official kiln here to burn the bricks and tiles needed by the court.
The whole village became homeless overnight, because the brick kiln was built, and it was necessary to sacrifice to the kiln god when the fire was fired.
In addition, it was requisitioned by the imperial court, and these people snatched the children suitable for sacrifice in the surrounding villages.
In the brick kiln, the kiln god needs to be in charge, and this resentful spirit became the first victim of the kiln god at that time, and after being caught by the government, he was tied to the fire and burned alive, and it burned for a day and a night, and even the bones were burned to ashes.
And the purpose of this is to use the ashes of a virgin woman to shape the statue of the kiln god, which can be fired into something of unusual quality.
Later, the ashes of the wraith were used to shape the statue of the kiln god, and before the statue was erected, a warlock at the time pressed the ghost of the wraith into the idol.
From that day on, all she could do was wait endlessly.
Later, the brick kiln was fired, and a pair of boys and girls were used to sacrifice, but on the day the kiln was opened, for unknown reasons, all the bricks and tiles fired were not formed, but turned into powder.
The lord in charge of the brick kiln at that time had his men snatch four pairs of boys and girls and perform sacrifices again.
After the sacrifice was successful, he sealed the cave of the kiln god with his head.
This time, the firing ended in failure.
Later, I don't know whether it was a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, a mudslide occurred here, and the entire village and the brick kiln were buried in the soil until now.
After this resentful spirit finished speaking, I was also thrilled to hear it, this brick kiln actually went in with eleven lives.
"That's the way it is, these children were robbed, and the officers and soldiers stuffed the children into clay pots and sealed them with clay."
I didn't think about it anymore, it was hard for me to imagine that such a young child could go through such inhumane things.
"One last question." I asked lightly, "There is an iron chain tied under the statue of the kiln god, which leads to the bottom of the well, what is that?" ”
The resentful spirit thought for a moment, and said slowly, "Throw yourself into the corpse well." ”
Corpse well?
What is it?
"This place is a small village, the place is not big, plus every family is relatively poor, there is no money to buy coffins, and there is already a custom in the village, people will be thrown into this corpse well after death."
"At that time, the government wanted to fill the well, but no matter how much they filled it down, they couldn't fill the well."
Wells are open to underground undercurrents, and if the undercurrents are large, they will be taken to other places, which is not unusual, and as for things like sand, gravel and soil, they will be taken away more or less if they are thrown in. Yunnan
It's just that since it is an underground river, why does it smell so bad, a fishy smell.
"The people of the government thought that this well was too weird, so they used a special method to suppress the wellhead, tied an iron chain under the statue of the kiln god, and tied a Taishan stone lion to the other end."
I see.
Now it seems that all the problems have been solved.
As for this resentful spirit, I can only help her tie a paper figure overnight, and let her have something to possess first.
In the middle of the night, when everyone was asleep, there was a sudden loud bang outside, waking everyone up again.
Standing at the door of the board room, I was a little speechless, how much was going to happen this night.
It's just that it's pitch black, and you can't see what's going on at all.
In the morning, when I came out to see, I was frightened by the sudden scene, which was originally in the brick kiln, but I was directly trapped in a big pit.
The brick kiln buried in the ground collapsed.
Now there is only one question left, and that is to find a place to bury all the bones of these children.
A day later, the bones of the children were buried, and there were no problems with the brick kiln, and Kaohsiung and I were ready to return to Qingyang City.
On the way back, I received a call from Xu Chuan, who was on the other end of the phone, asking me to go back quickly and do him a favor.
I asked what the question was, and this dog day didn't say anything, just told me to hurry back.
Listen to him, this matter is quite serious.
"Jiang Chen, what I told you before, you can think about it, or if you have any requirements, you can also put it forward directly."
Faced with another recruitment in Kaohsiung, I smiled, but I had some doubts in my heart.
"Mr. Gao, I have a question I want to ask you."
"According to my understanding during this time, in addition to the sect of cultivation, each city has its own metaphysical pavilion, and the Taoist priests of this metaphysical pavilion are not bad, and their strength is even higher than mine, why did you choose me?"
When Kaohsiung heard me say this, he laughed, and then shook his head speechlessly.
"This matter is a long story, the Xuanxue Pavilion is not as capable as it seems on the surface, and the Xuanxue Pavilion also has their own rules, doing merciless trading."
"Long-term cooperation, the Metaphysics Pavilion is not a reliable object, if you simply want to spend a sum of money to let the other party help you solve one thing, this is okay, if it is a long-term cooperation, the Xuanxue Pavilion will inevitably create some trouble for you."
"I see that there are some valuable things in you, so I want to win you over, to put it bluntly, I also have my own selfishness."
Kaohsiung's words are here, and I don't approve of anything.
After all, I haven't had any dealings with Xuanxue Pavilion.
"As long as I am in Qingyang City, Mr. Gao can find me at any time if he wants."
I replied with no refusal or promise.
Kaohsiung's car dropped me off at the school gate, and after saying goodbye, I called Xu Chuan and asked him where the kid was and what was going on.
As a result, after the phone was connected, this kid said that he was in the hospital, and he scared me a lot.
By the time I arrived by taxi, Xu Chuan was already waiting at the door.
"What the hell is going on, you don't say anything on the phone, I see that you are fine, what are you doing in the hospital." I said a few words to him.
The boy was full of anxiety and took my arm and trotted up.
"It's my girlfriend, I suddenly fainted yesterday, and I was sent to the hospital for a check-up, and I didn't find anything wrong, but the whole person had a low-grade fever and was unconscious."
"Aren't you a half-immortal who has studied the Fa, so I thought my girlfriend wouldn't be a ghost, so I'll call you quickly."
I.......
What do you mean that I am a half-immortal, and I have also studied the Fa!
But since you're here, it's not appropriate not to take a look.
When I came to the ward, in addition to Xu Chuan, there were two girls guarding me.
I didn't talk nonsense, but looked at the girl lying on the bed, only to see that her eyebrows were black and her eyes were red, this was something unclean.
I lifted the quilt covering this girl, and only one pair of feet was exposed, only to find that a lot of black gas poured into her body from the soles of her feet.
What's the problem?
I was also thinking about it, and the next moment the corner of my hand was snatched by someone.
I looked up and saw one of the girls looking at me with disdain, and it was she who snatched the quilt from my hand.
"Xu Chuan, this is the person you are talking about, I don't know the rules too much, how can I lift the girl's quilt when I come, I'm afraid that I don't have a foot fetish, and I came to take advantage of it."
"Look at his poor and sour appearance, I know that you are kind, they are all in a dormitory, but not all friends can be made, he is from a poor rural area, so hard to please you, it must be for your money."
"These people have no self-esteem in their bones, and they can do anything as long as they give money."
