Chapter Twenty-Three: Dipping the incense head into the ground

I stood on the edge of the reservoir and looked at it for a while, and it was true that there was a layer of yin qi shrouded above the water surface, but I couldn't see where this yin qi came from, and I couldn't find the source of the yin qi.

Yin Qi does not disperse when it encounters water, and it gathers but does not knot, indicating that there is something in the water.

"Village Chief, I have a solution, but I need your nod."

Hearing that I had a way to solve it, the village chief immediately came to his senses.

"Say, what's the solution?"

As for my solution, it is to clean the water in the reservoir and see what is under the water, and then I want to salvage the sarcophagus, the problem is this sarcophagus, I have to figure out what it is.

Otherwise, like a headless fly, in the end it will be a blind man lighting a lamp in vain.

After listening to me, the village chief hesitated, the scope of this reservoir is not large, but if you want to release water, it will take several hours to say the least, and it will also require several pumping machines to work together.

If there is a drought next year, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"Village chief, I think what this kid said is right, the pictures and words engraved on the sarcophagus are very uncomfortable to look at, and now the sarcophagus is lost in this reservoir, there is no water in the village, this reservoir six or seven meters deep, can the water be drained."

"This matter can't be delayed, now people are panicking, and they can't tell whose family will die next."

The people around you, every word you say to me, everyone is afraid of disaster and Xiao Wall.

Eventually, in front of the villagers, the village chief compromised.

For the whole village, the biggest thing right now is to get the sarcophagus.

The big guys all went back to prepare water pumps or something, and a few big men went down to the loop and tried to open the seal of the reservoir inlet.

I was about to leave, and just as I was about to turn around, there was a muffled pop behind me, not loud but clear, like something jumping into the water.

When I turned my head to look, several people around me were also looking at the ripples on the water, and it didn't look like someone had thrown a stone into it.

I guess it's a big fish in the reservoir.

Back at the village committee, I wanted to talk to Hou Jiang about what his father had told him, but I couldn't find him.

"Has anyone seen Hou Jiang?" I looked at the people who were preparing the pumps and said, but everyone shook their heads, meaning they didn't see it.

"Village chief, village chief, have you seen Hou Jiang?" I saw the village chief come in and asked quickly.

Hou Jiang and I talked about those things before, it didn't look like a joke, could it be that when we went to the reservoir to see, he packed up his things and ran away?

"No, I'm also looking for him, it's about his family, how can he do it if he doesn't help."

As a result, the village chief searched around, but found no one, it seems that this guy really packed up his things and ran away.

Even the phone was turned off.

Anyway, there are so many people in the village, there is not much more than him, and there is no less than one.

Half an hour later, seven or eight pumps worked together to start pumping water out of the reservoir.

Soon the reservoir's sewer seals were also opened, and the speed at which the water level was falling was visible to the naked eye.

I sat on the ground on the side of the reservoir and chatted with the people in the village, and their conversation had always revolved around whether I was Mr. Yin Yang or not.

I don't know what to say about this topic, but in the face of their inquiries, I can only say that I am.

In this way, we talked about a topic from one o'clock in the afternoon to more than four o'clock in the afternoon.

"I saw it, I saw it, there was something underwater."

I don't know who shouted, the people sitting around them, all stood up and surrounded them, I stood on the edge of the reservoir and looked, the water level has fallen more than two meters, and now on the water surface, you can vaguely see that there are three black spots under the water, although I can't see what it is, but it looks like the volume is not small.

The water level was still slowly falling, and after ten minutes, everyone who was staring at the water surface gasped and took several steps back in fright.

Those few black dots in the water are not anything else, but coffins standing in the water, three coffins standing in the water, you think about what kind of scene it is.

Many people were too frightened to come any closer, and I stood still, my brow furrowed.

This scene is also the first time I have seen it, and the moment I saw that it was a coffin, my whole back felt cold.

The village chief squeezed up to me and pointed to the three coffins in the water.

"This, how can there be a coffin in this water, we just threw the sarcophagus down, and didn't throw these."

The appearance of the village chief told me that he was scared and wanted my answer.

I'm still confused, and I want someone to answer my questions.

I didn't speak, I just stared at the water, because I saw that there was something in the deeper water.

Moreover, there is also an extremely heavy yin and dead qi under the water.

Seeing that I didn't speak, the village chief and the others all stared at the water.

After more than ten minutes, many people couldn't believe it when they saw this scene, and some people were even so frightened that they squatted on the ground and peed their pants.

This scene is too terrifying and terrifying.

On the water, in addition to the three coffins, there are now many human feet exposed, which can be determined to be dead, not to mention that there are ten corpses in the water.

I swallowed a mouthful of saliva and slowly got a little closer, the situation under the water was so weird that almost all the dead bodies were soaked in the water with their heads on the ground.

It was only after half a salary that I reacted.

"Village chief, the matter is even more serious than I thought, let the people in the village, but all the women who are old and weak, leave the village immediately, no matter where they go, and don't stay in the village."

"Let the men in the village pull a few strong lights, now it's getting dark, I'm afraid that something will happen at night, and the things in the water will be fished out no matter what."

"Send someone to the city and buy some paper money, incense candles, grains and cinnabar, the more the better."

"Don't be stunned, hurry up."

As soon as I yelled, I got goosebumps all over my body and felt my whole back cold.

The village chief began to arrange, and except for two or three people who were brave enough to watch the water with me, the rest of the people ran away.

The water level is still dropping, and everything below is starting to come to the surface.

There is a figure of these people who are stuck upside down in the water, and although I can't see the face, I can see that he is wearing a white filial piety robe, and he is still wearing straw sandals on his feet.

I've seen this outfit at noon today.

Hou Jiang.

When I came to the village committee with the village chief, Hou Jiang, as the filial son of the deceased, wore linen and filial piety, wore filial piety clothes on his body, and wore a pair of broken straw shoes on his feet.

How is it possible, since we came out of the village committee, until now, there are people guarding the reservoir, how did Hou Jiang die in the reservoir?

I really can't figure this out.

As the water surface continues to fall, the yin energy at the bottom of the water also begins to gather on the water surface, becoming more and more intense.

In an hour, thirty or forty strong men from the village gathered at the edge of the reservoir, and everything was ready.

Everyone looked condensed, staring at the situation under the water, and no one dared to speak.

I stared at the Yin Qi condensed on the surface of the water, if it suddenly erupted, no one present would be able to run, including me.

"Go to the village and find a black dog, quick!"

After I finished speaking, I took out the pestle from my pocket, and with a smack, the pestle unfolded, and I held it in my hand.

The sky was getting dark, and the things in the water were completely revealed, and the sarcophagus was also exposed, and at the first sight of this sarcophagus, I felt dizzy, and the whole person was about to fall.

If I hadn't bit my tongue and come to my senses, I would have fallen to the ground.

Those corpses were lying on the mud, and their heads were all stuck in the mud, but I was sure that the person in the filial piety clothes was Hou Jiang.

Don't say it's me, it's the strong men in these villages, and many people also recognize Hou Jiang.

"Jiang Chen, the black dog is here."

The people in the village brought a black dog, the pure black kind, but as soon as the dog approached the reservoir, it began to become restless.

Dogs can see things that people can't see, and they can also feel crises that people can't.

Although this black dog is more evil than ordinary dogs, it does not flinch at all when faced with unclean things.

The black dog in front of him had become so restless, there must be something suppressing it, and the only thing was in the reservoir.

The road is one foot high and the demon is one foot high, and the black dog became restless in the face of such a scene, as for whether its blood can suppress the things below, it is really unknown.

"Kill, take blood."

What the?

The village chief and the people around him were shocked.

I looked at them, when was they still so indecisive.

"Hurry up."

Hearing that I was angry, they did not hesitate any longer, and cut off the head of the black dog with a knife and took half a basin of dog blood to me, and I grabbed the bag with cinnabar and poured half of the bag into it.

The dog's blood is mixed with cinnabar, and the red ones are some black.

Picking up a bowl, I sprinkled the dog's blood in the basin into the reservoir, one to break the evil, and the other to dispel the yin.

A basin of dog blood was sprinkled down, and the yin qi condensed below began to dissipate.

The three coffins, showing a three-legged posture, enclose the sarcophagus in the middle, and those corpses surround the sarcophagus like inverted incense.

I looked at the sarcophagus, which was full of muddy water, and I couldn't see what was inside.

At this time, I began to make trouble, I couldn't figure out what the situation was underground, and I didn't dare to rush people down, but the corpses and coffins below had to find a way to get up.

In desperation, I asked people to find a wooden plank and throw it down, so that when they went down, they would not sink into the mud.

"Come down with me, and the rest hang the coffin and corpse from above."

As I spoke, I jumped down and stepped on the plank, and I looked at the corpses lying on the mud, and I couldn't see their faces, and even then I felt horrified.

I walked over to the sarcophagus, watched as the muddy water lifted the pestle in my hand, and poked into the water.

When the ghost pestle touched the water, the runes on it instantly flickered, like a red-hot iron rod reaching into the water, sizzling.
