Chapter 22: Is This Mr. Yin and Yang?
A month ago, when they were digging a roadbed in their village, they dug up a sarcophagus, and no one in the village called the police at that time, so they put the sarcophagus in the courtyard of the village committee.
It wasn't a big deal, but when it got dark, a storm began to blow up in the sky, and it rained all night.
Early the next morning, someone found that the sarcophagus parked in the courtyard of the village committee had been opened, and no one knew what was inside.
Originally, the matter should have ended here, but the sarcophagus was placed in the courtyard of the village committee, which looked unlucky, so everyone carried it and threw it into the reservoir in the village.
From that day on, the village became unpeaceful, first at night, the dogs in the whole village barked wildly, and when such a thing happened, the people in the village panicked and said everything.
It's not that Mr. Yin Yang hasn't looked for it, but all he found is a group of liars, and if he doesn't say anything about the money, he can't deal with the matter, and one of them is so frightened that he jumped into the water directly.
If it weren't for the timely salvage of the villagers, their lives would have to be explained.
Later, the people in the village thought that it was just a trivial matter of restlessness anyway, and they didn't expect that the problem would be so serious afterwards.
Within a few days, there was a dead man in the village, a little girl, and she was crying wolves in the village in the middle of the night.
The whole village was woken up, and then there was a scream and no movement.
This happened, everyone can't ignore it, but before everyone came out, the girl's family came out to report the funeral, according to the customs of their village, the descendants died, and they couldn't stop the spirit.
Stopping the spirit is a mortuary, and the average person who dies needs to be parked for three to five days for their relatives to mourn.
Because she died at night, the girl had to be buried in a coffin on the same day.
Later, the girl's father went to buy a coffin overnight, and the people in the village helped bury his daughter.
By noon, perhaps the family couldn't stand the blow, packed up some simple things, and said that they had to leave the village.
When everyone thought that things were going to come to an end, something even more unexpected happened, and there were dead people in the village.
By now, four have died.
"So, the whole thing was caused by that sarcophagus?"
When the village chief heard me say this, he only sighed and said nothing superfluous.
In a month's time, four people died in the village one after another, and today this one has escaped with a corpse.
When this thing is said, it is estimated that no one will believe it.
The village is not far from the warehouse, about 40 minutes away by car, and when we arrived at the village, many people gathered around the entrance of the village to discuss the problem of swindling corpses.
Seeing the village chief's car coming back, many people surrounded him.
"Village chief, sir, have you come back, if it continues like this, the people in the village will die, and the people who went to chase the corpse just now have all returned, and they have not found the body of the second child."
I looked at the village chief, but he also looked helpless, but it was difficult to say that I was a gentleman, after all, who had ever seen such a young gentleman as me.
While everyone looked at the village chief, they also looked at me.
"This is Mr."
What.
Everyone had a look of disbelief.
"Village chief, don't be joking, there is such a young gentleman, you see that a few of the people who were invited back before are still charlatans at such an old age, can this be done at such a young age."
"It's just, I see that he is also a liar, what would he do at such a young age."
I've been damaged by these people, and that's a useless one.
"Okay, don't make any noise, he said he didn't need to give money if he didn't see it." The village chief held back such a sentence.
Feelings, this is pulling me over to try the knife?
But since I've come here, I can't say anything more.
As a gust of wind hit, not only me, but almost everyone around here shivered.
On this hot day, you may not feel this way in an air-conditioned room.
Yin Qi?
When I looked into the village, there were a few yin qi floating around, although it was not heavy, but it explained the problem.
Under the guidance of the village chief, I began to walk into the village, and found that the further I went, the colder it became, probably because of the backdrop to the mountains, and the village was cooler than the city.
When I came to the village committee, I found that in the courtyard, which was bigger than a basketball court, there was a mourning hall, and the coffin was still on a bench, but there was no body inside.
There were also a few people in filial piety clothes talking in the courtyard, and the people from the village who had come to help were also sitting together to discuss what had happened today.
The village chief called the family of the deceased, a man about forty years old, dressed in linen and filial piety, should be the direct relatives of the deceased.
As for this mourning hall, it was his father Hou Han who was originally going to be put in the coffin.
It's just that there was a corpse fraud, and no one knows where his father's body went.
Without the body, the funeral had to be put on hold.
"Young man, you said you were a gentleman, now you see how this is done." The village said helplessly.
At best, this matter is a matter of their whole village, and at a small level, it is also a matter of the people in the village, and he still has to help as the village head, otherwise it will not be convincing.
I thought about it for a while, the most important thing at the moment is to find Hou Jiang's father's body, as for whether it is a fraudulent corpse anymore, now I can't see anyone alive or dead, I can't tell what's going on.
"Whether there are relics of the deceased before his death, clothes to wear, and things to bring are okay."
"And I need a rooster and a red cloth to find the body of the dead now."
"Bring me another stick of incense."
I have all the things I want, and I have to see where the corpse is before I can decide what to use.
Soon, all these things were taken, and the village chief looked at me with a curious expression, really curious about my wild way.
I took the rooster, wrapped it in a red cloth, lit a stick of incense, and stuck it in the head.
Hou Jiang brought his father's clothes, I tore a piece and lit it, turned it clockwise three times on the chicken, and then let go of the rooster.
"Let people follow this chicken, and it will lead you to the carcass, and after you find the carcass, don't move anyone, come back and tell me where it is."
The village chief arranged for someone to follow the rooster, and Hou Jiang also wanted to follow, but was stopped by me.
"You can't go, the smell on your body is similar to your father's, it's hard to find it if you go, let them go, when you find the body, you're going to carry it back."
Hou Jiang didn't ask anything, just sat on the stone pier next to him.
The village chief sat down with a cigarette in his mouth and asked curiously: "Cover the rooster's head with a red cloth, and you can find the body of Han Lao Er?" ”
"Of course not." I said, "Don't you see that I used a special method?" ”
Covering the rooster's head with a red cloth is to make it uncontested; Burning Han Er's clothes is to make this rooster familiar with the taste, so as to find Han Er's body.
When the village chief heard me say this, he got up speechlessly and left, and went to chat with a few old ladies sitting next to him.
I sat here bored, took out my phone and played.
"Are you really a gentleman?"
Hearing this inquiry, I looked at Hou Jiang and found that he was looking at me with a serious face, and his eyes were extremely eager to get this answer.
I looked at him and nodded, I guess I thought it was a response.
It's just that the next moment, Hou Jiang looked around like a thief and found that no one was looking at us, so he whispered: "My father told me before he died that no matter what happened today, I had to pack up my things and leave before twelve o'clock at noon, otherwise I would be like him." ”
"And the people who died before, my father said that they all cheated the corpses, and their families are all the same as him."
"I don't know what that means, you're a gentleman, can you tell me about it."
How can I hear this to my creepy, could it be that Hou Jiang's father has the ability to pinch and calculate, and he has calculated his own way of death.
I looked at the time, it was already eleven forty-five, and his father told him to leave the village by twelve, and there were fifteen minutes left.
It's just that I'm also confused about how to understand this sentence, because I don't know what it means.
I want to know what it means, I'm not going to stay here anymore, I'm going to look for the body.
Shaking my head, I was about to say sorry when the village committee shocked a few people, who were the same people who had followed the chicken out to find the corpse.
"Village chief, sir, the rooster ran and jumped into the reservoir."
What?
Jumped into the river?
I was speechless, how could I jump into the river with such a good look.
"Why don't you get another one?" The village chief looked at me and said.
I shook my head and rejected the approach.
"How many reservoirs are there in the village?" I asked.
"Just one."
"Let's go and have a look."
Led by the village chief, a group of people came to the reservoir behind the village, saying that it was a reservoir, but it was actually a pond, which was not as large as an artificial lake.
When something like this happened in the village, there must have been something unclean, and the village chief told me that the sarcophagus that was dug up was not thrown into the reservoir by them.
Now the rooster jumped into the reservoir, and it is definitely not such a simple coincidence.
A group of people stood in front of the reservoir, and I looked at the reservoir without any waves, picked up the stones on the ground and threw them down, and there was a splash, which seemed to be quite deep.
When the water surface returned to calm, I took out a stick of fragrance and slowly put it on the water, and the result was that without the slightest hindrance, the fragrance instantly sank to the bottom.
"Have you drowned anyone before this reservoir?" I asked.
"But all the reservoirs, how can there be immortals, but it was a long time ago, these years, young people have gone to work outside, and children are not allowed to lean on this side, and the water in this reservoir is also used to put some water to water the ground when there is a drought, and it is useless at other times."
"Could it be the reservoir?"
I shook my head, anything is possible now, whether it is a problem in the reservoir or not, and it is still necessary to release the water to find out.
