Chapter 2 The Mystery Under the Viaduct Pier

After the strong light subsided, Ye Tao blinked his eyes that had not yet eased up and looked around, only to see high-rise buildings, shops lined up, and the road full of flowers was full of traffic, and people came and went.

On Zhongshan Road, a bustling city in Binhai City, an elevated highway is being built in the city. For a long time, the roar of pile drivers and excavators here day and night disturbed the quiet.

One day people found that it had stopped. The pile driver was no longer emitting black smoke and hammered down, and the nearby place shook for a while. The excavator also stopped working, and the other construction machinery and equipment also stopped. Nearby residents felt that there was less dust and noise, and it turned out that the construction of the viaduct piers had stopped.

"Viaduct ......" Ye Tao remembered the scene he saw in the Xuanguang Gate after using the Lingyu for the first time, and decided to walk along the viaduct under construction, and sure enough, he didn't walk a few hundred meters before he saw that the piers of the viaduct were built here and stopped, and the neat fence surrounded the project site, the piling machinery and tower crane equipment had stopped working, and there were very few vehicles and personnel entering and exiting from the gate of the construction site.

"This should be it. Ye Tao took a deep breath, tidied up his clothes, and walked inside to find out. Seeing that he looked calm and well-dressed, the guards at the door thought that he was someone who came with the boss, and let him in without hindrance.

There is a large pit under the huge pile driver, and next to the pit, a group of people are pointing and talking about something around the pit. Ye Tao secretly thought that this big pit should be the problem. The noise suddenly stopped, followed by the sound of wooden fish and chanting.

Ye Tao looked for the sound, in front of the big pit, there was a person wearing a Taoist uniform with his hair in a bun, holding a wooden sword in his hand, chanting words in his mouth, and was casting spells in a circle around the big pit. On the other side of the pit, there are several people dressed as monks, sitting on the ground, holding Buddhist beads, knocking on the wooden fish, chanting scriptures, the sound of the wooden fish on the scene, the Sanskrit sound is lingering.

At this time, two people who looked like on-site managers walked past Ye Tao, and the tall man sighed bitterly: "Stopping work for so many days, it won't help like this, our Mr. Yuan is really going to cry." ”

The shorter man shook his head and said, "It's strange that you say, the soil of the entire coastal area is as soft as tofu, and the pile is driven here, and it can't be beaten hard, it's weird!"

......

Ye Tao heard a general content of what the two said: the viaduct pier was built here, the pile could not be driven, the bridge pier could not be built, and the diversion involved the relocation of a large number of residents, which was not feasible. The contractor rented the best pile driver operation in China at a high price, but still could not achieve the purpose of pile sinking. The contractor exhausted all methods, and in desperation, the boss Yuan Dafu decided to invite the Buddhist master to do the trick to suppress the demons and eliminate the demons, so that the pile could be driven down and the project could be carried out smoothly.

After understanding the situation, Ye Tao stepped forward and cleared his throat and asked, "May I ask the two of you, is Mr. Yuan here?"

While the two were talking, they heard someone calling them, and when they turned their heads, they saw a strange, handsome young man in a well-dressed dress looking at them with a smile on his face. "Are you ......" Gao Gao said in doubt, Ye Tao silently recited the order in his heart, and the two of them saw a blue light in the eyes of the young man in front of them, and the two of them looked in a trance for a while, and after a while, they returned to normal.

It is not true to say that he is back to normal, because at this time Gao has become very cordial, and he said to Ye Tao respectfully: "Mr. Yuan and Mr. Yuan's sister are accompanying the Taoist priest and monk to do rituals. ”

Ye Tao asked, "What exactly happened here?"

The two scrambled to introduce the cause and effect of the incident to Ye Tao: "The viaduct pier was built here, and the reason is that this place,

If the pile can't be driven, it can't be used with cement piles first, and it can't be replaced with steel piles. ”

What they said was true, Ye Tao had already found that there were many discarded root piles on the side of the big pit.

"The soil here is soft, there is nothing that cannot be driven, and it is even more strange that when the piling is just started, the sunny weather instantly thunders and lightning, and the rain pours down. When the machine is shut down, the weather immediately clears. ”

"The master who drove the pile driver, during the operation, was stoned to death by the fallen pile when he came down to check the situation that the pile could not be driven. The other died in the cab for no reason. ”

The two people who died were the two closest to him on the morgue in the morgue of the international hospital, and Ye Tao was sure that this was the place where the dead bodies he had seen earlier. From the psychic knowledge in his own mind, he can judge that this strange is a strange and strange thing, and the specific situation has to be seen.

"Those masters who practice the Dharma, what do you say about this matter?" Ye Tao glanced twice towards the side where the Dharma was performing.

The short man stepped forward and said: "Say that this is the dragon's back, and the pile can't be driven, we Mr. Yuan believe it, but the project can't be stopped like this forever, and it has to continue!"

The tall man added: "What else can I do?" Mr. Yuan has made a lot of money this time, no, today I invited the host of Bieyun Temple and the head of the Daoist of the Duality Temple to cast a spell to solve this strange matter. ”

Ye Tao thanked the two of them and walked in the direction of Dakeng.

After the two who spoke walked a few steps, they looked back at Ye Tao, and after looking at each other, they were still muttering in their hearts: "Why did we tell this stranger all these things?"

Ye Tao walked to the big pit, and saw that the Taoist priest and the monk were busy with their own practices, and the young man with big ears on one side was standing in the crowd with his hands behind his back with a sad face. There was also a beautiful girl standing beside him with white skin like snow, very delicate facial features, and a tall figure. The contrast between the slender girl and the man with a big belly and a round waist, a square face and big ears stood out even more in the crowd. Ye Tao is estimated to be the boss here, Yuan Dafu, and that girl should be his sister.

Ye Tao looked at the pit, it was very shallow. In the pit, a steel pile was inserted into the dirt, less than a meter deep, and it was discarded there. Firecrackers and yellow table paper in the pit, tribute: pig's head, fish, and fruits were thrown all over the pit, and it was a mess. You can imagine people's panic when it happened and their helplessness afterwards. There are still a few places where the burning incense has not been extinguished, and the fragrance lingers. Ye Tao judged that it was the supernatural that was at work, and people could not make the other party give in with such normal sacrifices.

Ye Tao was afraid of smelling the fragrance, so he coughed and couldn't help but take a few steps back.

The coughing sound attracted Yuan Yuan's attention, she Xunsheng saw Ye Tao, shocked, Yuan Yuan thought that such a boy, if he met him in a bar, he would talk about him: "Handsome guy, I'll raise you!" because Ye Tao is too handsome.

It stands to reason that such a boy made a very deep impression on Yuan Yuan, but Yuan Yuan was unfamiliar with Ye Tao, indicating that he had never seen him.

Yuan Yuan asked Ye Tao, "Who are you and how did you get in?" He obviously saw that Ye Tao was not a member here, but an idle person.

"I'm passing by, come in and see the excitement!" Ye Tao scratched his head and said with a smile. Although he has used spells in the passage and spiritual communication, in fact, Ye Tao is not very confident in his psychic ability, and since accepting the psychic technique given by the guardian of the earth, he only knows some superficial methods, so he wants to deal with the strange things but does not dare to be arrogant.

"Little handsome guy, no, things are being done here, and it's not easy for outsiders to participate. She confirmed that Ye Tao was a lively person, and walked in front of Ye Tao with a smile, feeling more and more that not only was his appearance superior, but his temperament was also different.

"But we can have a cup of coffee when it's over. Such a boy is rare, and Yuan Yuan doesn't want to let go of this opportunity to get to know.

Ye Tao was embarrassed for a while after hearing this, but he wanted to stay and find out, so he waved his hand and said tactfully: "Ahem... I appreciate Miss Yuan's kindness, and if I can stay here, maybe I can work with you to find a way to solve this supernatural matter. ”

"Give me a reason why you can stay, if you can't say it, please leave immediately!" Yuan Yuan saw Ye Tao's refusal, his face changed slightly, and he couldn't get off the stage, but fortunately, he was reasonable.

Ye Tao looked at Yuan Yuan, and a scene flashed quickly in his mind, from a baby to a child to a slim girl, and finally froze the picture in front of him, and then Ye Tao smiled and said: "When you were thirteen years old, when you were learning to swim, you choked on the water and almost drowned, and you still have the sequelae of coughing in your throat. ”

Yuan Yuan was stunned, because this matter was only known to her and her brother, that time her brother took her to hide from her parents, and the matter of choking on water has been hidden until now, and now this person in front of him can know such a secret thing, could it be that he is really capable?

In order to prove her judgment, she looked suspicious and asked, "Do you know how many people went swimming with me that time?"

"A big-eared man in one aspect. Ye Tao poked his head over and said softly. "Your brother stole it from his parents. ”

Yuan Yuan's expression became serious, and then nodded: "You're right, don't leave, I'll come when I go?"

She's going to talk to her big-eared brother about the situation here.
