Chapter 209: The Tomb Man
The dilapidated room, the rotting soul body, what appears in front of me and Lao Jiu now is the true appearance of the Liu family.
"Aren't you doing well?"
"Aren't you married?"
"How could you die??"
Lao Jiu rubbed his eyes vigorously and muttered, "I must have seen it wrong, I must have seen it wrong!" β
"You read that right!"
A voice suddenly came from outside the window, interrupting Lao Jiu's muttering.
"Lin Nan?"
I looked back and wasn't too surprised.
"It's me!"
Lin Nan smiled, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, and waved her hand at Liu Xun and her father: "Stand down!" β
Like foam, the two of them made a pop, turned into a cloud of black gas, floated out of the window, flew into the dry well, and disappeared.
"That's what you paid me?" I asked with a cold face.
"Of course not!"
Lin Nan shook his head, pointed to the dry well, and said, "The reward I gave you is under that well!" β
"What's going on with Kaoru-chan?"
Lao Jiu took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice.
"Didn't you see that!"
Lin Nan pointed back to the dry well and said, "Liu Xun's family of four is already dead!" β
"What did you do?" Lao Jiu asked with red eyes.
Lin Nan smiled weirdly, pointed at Lao Jiu and said, "It's you!" β
"You fart!" Lao Jiu shouted.
"I fart?"
Lin Nan turned his head and said faintly: "If you didn't run back then, you would be the one who died, and if you ran away, it would be the four members of the Liu family who died!" β
"What the hell is going on?" I patted Lao Jiu on the shoulder and signaled him not to get excited.
"What's going on?"
Lin Nan chuckled, pointed to the well and said, "Haven't you always wanted to find the tomb of the Great Commander?" That well is the tomb of the Great Commander! β
"What?" I was shocked.
"Down the well is the tomb of the Grand Commander!" Lin Nan strolled to the well and said, "The Liu family is the tomb keeper, or the tomb keeper, it is more appropriate!" β
"Grave Man!"
I repeated, my face changed, and I remembered a note in my grandfather's notebook.
Lao Jiu's face also changed, and it was obvious that he also remembered.
The tomb townsmen are a group of people unique to ancient times, the meaning is very simple, it is easy to explain, it is literal, to suppress the tomb, which is commonly known as the suppression of the dead.
In ancient times, communication was not smooth, and once a natural disaster occurred, there were often heavy casualties and rampant anger.
Even if the follow-up disaster relief is done properly and more people die, they will still be angry.
One person's grievances can be resolved, what about ten, hundreds, thousands?
In response to this situation, the town grave man came into being.
Under natural disasters, it is not important to pay attention to one person and one grave, it is often a thousand people and one cave.
It is not realistic to rely on the ritual of rebirth to eliminate grievances, and many times, it is up to the grave people to deal with it.
If you want to become a tomb towner, the conditions are very harsh, or the eight-character Quanyang, or the Tiansha Lone Star life, if you can be selected as a tomb town, your life must first be hard.
Most of the time, it is their blood that the grave townsmen use to suppress the tombs.
With blood to suppress the cave, it would be good if the corpses buried in the tomb were suppressed, but once they were not successfully suppressed, the resentment would back, and the descendants of the tomb townspeople would definitely be impoverished.
"You mean to say that there is a town tomb under this well?" I asked.
"Correct solution!" Lin Nan patted his palm and nodded.
The town tomb is literally, the tomb that the town tomb people suppressed.
"So, there's no Grand Commander Tomb at all, right?" I asked.
"Yes and no!"
Lin Nan thought for a while and said: "This town tomb is indeed suppressed by some military generals, so it is also called the tomb of the great commander!" β
"Huh!"
I tugged at the corners of my mouth, this is really a great irony, so many people are looking for the tomb of the Great Commander turned out to be a town tomb, if those tomb robbers knew, I don't know how they would feel.
"The four members of the Liu family were invaded and died by the resentment that escaped from the tomb, right?"
Speaking of which, the deaths of the four members of the Liu family are basically clear.
"Sort of!"
Lin Nan rolled his eyes, nodded, and said, "The Liu family is the descendant of the tomb people, and they can be regarded as a well-deserved death!" β
"Kaoru asked me to accompany her home that time, but she actually wanted to use my life to suppress this tomb, right?" Lao Jiu looked at the well in a daze and said.
"That's right, but there are no prizes!" Lin Nan said with a smile.
Lao Jiu was silent, just looked at the well intently, and muttered, "Xiao Xun, why did you let me go?" β
Lao Jiu is the fate of the Heavenly Demon Lone Star, in ancient times, it was the standard life of the tomb man, and it was indeed feasible to suppress the tomb with his blood.
"Why? Because she loves you! The corners of Lin Nan's mouth hooked up a tiresome arc, and said with a smile.
His tone was very unpleasant, with a faint sneer.
"What do you mean?" I asked coldly.
Lao Jiu also glared at Lin Nan angrily.
"Huh!"
Lin Nan shook his head and asked rhetorically, "Isn't this the answer you want to hear?" β
"Isn't it?" Lao Jiu shouted.
"Kid, you're so naΓ―ve!"
Lin Nan shook his head and said, "Do you have half a month of time with that little girl together?" Do you think that half a month can make a woman who has bad intentions towards you from the beginning fall in love with you? β
"Or do you think that if you live well and sleep with her, you can make her die for you, even if it costs her life?"
"And it's not just my own life that I have to pay, but even the lives of my parents and brothers!"
After Lin Nan finished speaking, he looked at Lao Jiu with that faint sarcastic smile.
Lao Jiu's face turned pale and he was silent.
Don't talk about Lao Jiu, I have nothing to say.
The reason is very simple, Lao Jiu and Liu Xun have been together for less than half a month, and in such a short period of time, it is simply unrealistic for a woman to give up the lives of her parents and relatives for Lao Jiu.
Don't say that Lao Jiu doesn't believe it, and I don't believe it either.
Lin Nan's words were like a steel knife, inserted into Lao Jiu's heart.
"Then why did she let me go?"
Lao Jiu muttered.
"Why? It's very simple, because those things in the tomb don't want to be suppressed anymore, so it's not Liu Xun who lets you go, but the things in the tomb that let you go! Lin Nan said with a sneer.
"What about the circle of friends? What's going on with those moments she posted? Lao Jiu asked again.
"Women are the most terrible creatures!"
Lin Nan said with some embarrassment.
I was stunned when I heard it, and I couldn't figure out why Lin Nan sighed.
"I don't understand, do you?" Lin Nan sighed, looked at me and Lao Jiu, and asked with a smile.
Lao Jiu and I glanced at each other and nodded at the same time.
"Okay, then I'll explain it to you!"
Lin Nan stretched out his hand and pointed at Lao Jiu and said, "If you don't run, the four members of the Liu family can use your blood or even your life to reseal the tomb of the town, so that their family of four will naturally not have to die!" β
"But you're gone, you're fine, the Liu family of four will have an accident!"
"Think about it yourself, what did you pay in this incident?"
"Nothing, right?"
Lin Nan looked at Lao Jiu with a smile, suddenly clapped his hands, and said, "No, you paid, you paid for your body, and slept with Liu Xun!" β
Lao Jiu's face turned white when he was sarcastic, and in the whole thing, he really didn't pay anything, and slept with Liu Xun in vain.
The key is that that time was Liu Xun's first time.
The Liu family can be said to have lost their wife and soldiers, not to mention a daughter, and finally put the lives of a family of four into it.
"Think about it, people have paid so much and haven't even gotten a hair, can you not complain?" Lin Nan looked at Lao Jiu, who had already figured out what had happened, and asked again.
"A woman's grievance? Even the ghosts are afraid, those people under the town tomb have been suppressed for hundreds of years, it is the end of the strong crossbow, Liu Xun's resentment is heavy, after his death, he directly suppressed those people in the town tomb! β
Without waiting for Lao Jiu to answer, Lin Nan told the truth by himself.
Hearing this, Lao Jiu and I both understood.
To put it bluntly, this is the story of a woman who fought back after losing her wife and soldiers, driven by strong unwillingness.
After killing those things in the town tomb, Liu Xun turned his target to Lao Jiu again.
In her opinion, today's misfortune is all caused by Lao Jiu, if it weren't for Lao Jiu, she wouldn't be the ghost she is today.
The most important thing is that Liu Xun is likely not to be able to get out of this courtyard.
Although she suppressed the things in the tomb, correspondingly, she didn't want to leave.
After sorting out these, I looked at Lin Nan with all my thoughts and asked, "How did you find here?" β
"How did I find here?"
Lin Nan smiled, patted the manhole cover, and said, "When I was still alive, I once helped Liu Xun's ancestor seal the town tomb once!" β
"Have you sealed the town tomb?"
I looked at Lin Nan in disbelief.
"That's right!"
Lin Nan smiled and nodded.
I thought about it, and then I was relieved, Lin Nan was originally an old monster who had been relived for a lifetime, and if he counted the age of his previous life, how could he be more than one hundred and thirteen years old.
When I think about it, I am relieved.
Lin Nan and Wuweizi are people of the same generation.
"So, you asked me to come here just to tell me that you helped me solve Lao Jiu's worries?" I asked.
If it weren't for this trip to the Great Commander, Lao Jiu might really be dealt with by Liu Xun one day in the future.
With Lao Jiu's virtue, if Liu Xunfa's state in the circle of friends has always been very good, he will not make any moves, if Liu Xunfa's state is getting worse and worse, Lao Jiu will definitely not be able to bear it.
"Yes and no!"
Lin Nan nodded and shook his head, and said: "This was originally a backhand left by me, I did my tricks and feet in the town tomb, otherwise, how could Liu Xun and them be controlled by me!" β
"What the hell are you trying to say?" I asked.
"That back hand, now it's yours!" Lin Nan stared at me for a long time and said with a smile.
"What's the backhand?" I asked, puzzled.
"Wait!"
Lin Nan stared at me for a while, and when he saw that I was a little hairy, he pushed the manhole cover back and removed the manhole cover from the wellhead, Lin Nan smiled at me again and jumped into the well.
"it!"
The moment Lin Nan jumped in, I was startled and rushed over.
When I came to the well, I looked down according to the edge of the well, and Lin Nan had fallen at the bottom of the well.
There was no water at the bottom of the well, and after Lin Nan fell, he pushed and pressed on the wall of the well, and the wall of the well was sunken inward, and he was pushed in, and Lin Nan's figure disappeared.
"There's a door down there!"
Lao Jiu and I glanced at each other and said at the same time.
Looking back at the bottom of the well, just as Lin Nan said, there really is a town tomb under this well.
But what I don't understand is, why was the town tomb built at the bottom of the well?
Under normal circumstances, this kind of town tomb should be located in a place where the wind and water are hidden, which is the same as the normal Yin Mansion site.
Town tomb town tomb, the people buried in it are already angry, and then buried in this kind of place with a thick yin atmosphere, what if nothing happens?
Because of this, I am curious, why was this town tomb built at the bottom of a well?
Lin Nan said that this is one of his followers, does it have anything to do with him?
After thinking about it for a while, I couldn't figure it out.
"Ahem!"
At this moment, a light cough sounded from the well, and Lin Nan's figure reappeared in my sight, and he came out of the small door.
After coming out, Lin Nan used both hands and feet, supporting the wall of the well and quickly climbed up.
"Here's for you!"
After coming up, Lin Nan pulled out a short dagger with a sheath pinned to his waist and handed it over.
"What is this?"
I hesitated, but didn't answer.
"This is my pay!"
Lin Nan smiled and said, "You take me into the Yin Yang River, and this knife will be yours!" β
I stared at him for a while, took the dagger, and the moment I got my hands on it, a cold cold that could freeze people's souls came.
"it!"
I shuddered, and a fine layer of goosebumps got on my back erection neck.
It took me a long time before I recovered.
"Enjoyable, huh?"
Lin Nan said with a smile, looking at the short dagger with a hint of reluctance in his eyes, and said: "This dagger, I have been immersed in the Yin Land with the aura of resentment for nearly a hundred years!" β
"You enter the Yin Yang River with this dagger, even if it is a green ghost, you will have the strength to fight!"
Lin Nan retracted his gaze and asked, "How is it, my remuneration is okay, right?" β
"Yes!"
I held the handle with one hand, held the scabbard with the other, pulled outward, and with a tearing sound, a cold light flashed, I subconsciously squinted my eyes, opened my eyes and looked at the dagger again, the cold light had disappeared, this dagger looked similar to Lao Jiu's.
"Okay, you've got the things, you can go!" Lin Nan took one last look at the dagger and gave the order to evict the guest.
I withdrew the dagger, didn't say anything more, nodded and walked out.
After taking two steps, I found that Lao Jiu hadn't moved, and was still looking at Lin Nan there.
"Lao Jiu!"
I screamed, Lao Jiu gritted his teeth and said to Lin Nan, "How is Xiao Xun?" β
"She?"
Lin Nan looked at Lao Jiu with a smile and asked, "What, do you still want to renew your relationship with her?" β
"No, I just want to know how she is?" Lao Jiu said impatiently.
"She's very good, if you really want to accompany her, go down to accompany her, I don't object!" Lin Nan pointed to the wellhead.
Lao Jiu was silent, stood in place for a while, and said, "Tell Xiao Xun, just say I'm sorry for her!" β
After speaking, Lao Jiu turned around and left.
Out of the yard, I sat in the driver's seat, and after the ignition, I took one last look at the yard and turned the car to drive back.
"Brother, do you think I'm a scumbag?"
As soon as the car drove out of the Great Commander's Tun, Lao Jiu suddenly came with such a sentence.
"Isn't it a scumbag, don't you count it yourself?" I snorted.
I know Lao Jiu's character, don't look at him now, it doesn't seem to be very uncomfortable now, it won't take a day, he will relapse into his old ways, what should he do!
Even when he met Wen Xinyue, he didn't change.
Recently, he has been so honest, the reason is very simple, the sequelae of lowering his head, I told him that in recent times, it is not appropriate to be close to women.
In addition, too many things have happened during this time, and Lao Jiu has no time or energy to mess with flowers and grass, so he stopped.
"I'll look at the dagger!"
Sure enough, after being scolded by me, within five minutes, Lao Jiu's mood was much better, and he picked up the dagger to check.
"Wow, it's about the same as mine!" Lao Jiu felt it for a moment and said: "Brother, this dagger is definitely also a fierce aura, and the people who die on this dagger will definitely not be less!" β
Lao Jiu's dagger, the raw material is a ghost head knife for beheading, fierce and fierce, very useful.
It's not a problem to deal with ordinary ghosts.
This one of mine is more fierce than his.
"Brother, what did you say Lin Nan's identity was?"
After looking at the dagger for a while, Lao Jiu thought about it and asked.
"I don't know!"
I shook my head, knowing that his true identity didn't matter much to me.
Although I don't know, one thing is certain, Lin Nan's identity is definitely equivalent to Wuweizi, these two are half a catty.
Two hours later, I parked my car in front of the store, which was expected to be a day, but I didn't expect to be home at noon.
This rate is really a bit unexpected for me.
"Coming back?"
Seeing me and Lao Jiu enter the house, Qiqi was a little surprised.
"Hmm!"
I nodded, and didn't say anything.
"Brother, Boss Wen came in the morning, seeing that you were not there and left, he said to come over in the afternoon!" Liu Jing said.
"Why didn't you call?" I asked.
"It's hit, it can't get through!" Liu Jing said.
"Can't get through?" I took out my phone and took a look, whether it was a missed call or WeChat, there was no news from Wen Xinyue on it.
Lao Jiu also took out his mobile phone and looked at it, and said, "No! β
"Boss Wen said that he was beaten, but he couldn't get through!" Liu Jing looked at me and Lao Jiu, and then said.
"I'll call my boss and ask her what's wrong!" Lao Jiu and I glanced at each other, and we both saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
Wen Xinyue's phone call must have been made when Lao Jiu and I were at Liu's house.
"Boss, yes, my brother and I went out for a walk in the morning, and I brought my mobile phone, maybe the place is too remote and there is no signal, and I didn't receive your call!"
"Well, okay, you can come here now!"
After connecting, Lao Jiu briefly explained and hung up the phone.
"Wen Xinyue is in trouble?"
Looking at the thoughtful Lao Jiu, I asked.
"Hmm!"
Lao Jiu nodded and said, "The boss said that there was an accident in Beishan Mental Hospital, and said that she would come over immediately and tell you personally!" β
"Is there an accident in the Beishan Psychiatric Hospital?"
I was a little surprised, my hand subconsciously touched my waist, I just met with Lin Nan in the morning, and got a dagger from him, Wen Xinyue immediately said that there was an accident in Beishan Mental Hospital, is there really a change, or does Wen Xinyue know something?
