Chapter Forty-Nine: Night Visits to the Old Ancestral Hall
I have to say that what the old patriarch said is a bit serious! The village chief didn't know how to answer for a while! If it can be cured, isn't it to denigrate one's ancestors for their incompetence? However, if it is not cured, then I am afraid that the life of the second dog is really going to be here!
Looking at the embarrassed appearance of the village chief, I couldn't help but stand up and said, "Old patriarch, the fact that we can cure the problems of the two dogs does not mean that we are more capable than those ancestors in the ancestral hall!" It's because we happen to have a problem that we can solve. And the ancestors in the ancestral hall are responsible for blessing the safety of your entire village! Each has its own role. So, it's not a conflict! ”
Hearing my words, the old patriarch looked at me in surprise and said, "Oh? I didn't expect you to look honest, but you are sharp! In that case, well! Tell me, how do you cure the two dogs? ”
Hearing that the old patriarch agreed, we were overjoyed one by one! couldn't help but look at the second uncle.
To be honest, we also want to know what kind of means the second uncle will show this time!
The second uncle looked at the old patriarch and said bluntly: "I want to bury the second dog alive for one night!" The next morning, I dug it out of the soil again. In this way, his illness will naturally get better! ”
As soon as I heard that the two dogs were going to be buried alive, not only the village chief, but even a few of us were surprised!
"Nonsense!"
The old patriarch slapped the table and said angrily: "You babies are just messing around!" What is the difference between being buried alive for one night and killing someone? Do you want to save the second dog, or are you going to kill him? ”
The second uncle explained unhurriedly: "Of course I'm going to save him!" He was wounded by corpse gas, no different from a dead corpse. If you want to get rid of the corpse qi from his body, you must use the method of burial. Of course, we're not really going to bury him alive. Just cover his body with a layer of floating soil. As for his head, it will remain outside. By dawn the next day, he'll be fine! ”
After hearing the second uncle's explanation, the old patriarch's face softened a lot. However, it still does not accept our approach. Shaking his head, he said, "That's not going to work either!" Now the second dog is very weak, and he can't stand your toss anymore. Forget it! ”
"But ......"
The village chief seemed to want to say something, but the old patriarch glared: "What else is there to say?" If the second dog really has three long and two short, do you have to bear the charge of murder? ”
When the old patriarch said this, the village chief suddenly didn't dare to speak anymore!
So, we had no choice but to leave the old patriarch's house.
Back at the village chief's house, none of us spoke, and the atmosphere was extremely heavy! In the end, it was Qiao Fat who couldn't help but say, "No, I don't understand!" Why should we help them? Since our kindness has been treated as a donkey's liver and lungs, then let's just leave it alone, won't we? ”
The second uncle shook his head and said, "Have you forgotten the purpose of our visit this time?" I suspect that the coffin that Ergouzi touched is definitely not simple! In addition, things in this village need to be unraveled little by little. ”
The village chief listened to us, although he did not understand what we were talking about. However, he couldn't help but ask us: "Are you really sure that you can cure Ergouzi?" ”
Fat Qiao looked at him and said, "There's no point in asking about this now. Even if we are a miracle doctor in the world, as long as your old patriarch doesn't agree, isn't there nothing we can do? ”
Listening to Qiao Fatman's words, the old village chief hesitated for a moment and said, "That's good! Since you can really cure Ergouzi, then I will make an exception and take you to the ancestral hall to bring him out! But you must heal him! ”
When we heard this, we all stood up excitedly.
Qiao Fatzi said with emotion: "You are really a good leader of the people!" ”
The old village chief waved his hand and said, "You wait here for a while, and I'll go find a few people to come and help." ”
So saying, he turned and went out.
After about half an hour, the village chief returned. Behind him was his son!
Looking at our puzzled eyes, the village chief said embarrassedly: "Alas, everyone thinks that the second dog has the plague. As soon as I heard that I was going to him, I pushed back and stopped. I'm so embarrassed! However, my son and I will do the same. ”
Looking at the embarrassed appearance of the village chief, I smiled and said, "It's okay! Understandable! Besides, aren't we still here? Together, we have enough manpower! ”
After hearing our words, the village chief nodded. So, we discussed the next steps.
Because he wanted to avoid being discovered and told the old patriarch, and the two dogs were full of corpses, they couldn't see the sun. So, we have to do it at night!
Originally, the second uncle wanted Tang Xiao to stay at home with the village chief and Xiaofeng. After all, we went out this time to do shady things, and any danger could happen. So, it's really not convenient to take her with you! However, Tang Xiaozhu didn't agree! Looks like what happened last night really scared her!
In the end, in desperation, the second uncle had no choice but to agree to take her with him.
At about eight o'clock in the evening, the lights were already out in the village. Most of them also fall asleep at this time! My second uncle and Qiao Fatzi, Tang Xiao, under the leadership of the village chief's son, came to the door of the ancestral hall in the dark.
Listening to the barking of dogs not far away, I was really a little nervous about being a thief!
The village chief's son took out the key and played with the lock for a while, but he couldn't open it. couldn't help but sigh: "Why is this key not good?" ”
Hearing this, the second uncle walked over and took a look at it and said, "No! I noticed this lock during the day, and it was different from now! Someone must have changed the locks! ”
Hearing this, Fat Qiao couldn't help but mutter: "Who?" It's okay to be idle, it's painful to do this kind of immoral thing! ”
The second uncle said lightly: "Nine times out of ten, the old patriarch did it!" Looks like he guessed we weren't going to give up! ”
"What then? Do you want to climb over the wall to get in? But how are we going to get out in a minute? ”
Hearing my question, the second uncle didn't say anything. Instead, he found a sharp stone nearby, slammed it against the lock, and slammed it down.
I only heard a crunch "click", and a few sparks popped out of the lock. Then, we saw that the lock had been smashed!
Fat Qiao couldn't help but be speechless, and said to me, "Good girl! Your second uncle's strength is really not small! ”
The second uncle ignored Qiao Fatzi, but directly pushed open the door and walked in.
As we had just entered the courtyard of the ancestral hall, a gust of wind blew over. The door of the ancestral hall "clanged" and closed tightly.
The sound was so loud that everyone present was taken aback!
The wind howled, blowing the wicker above our heads to sway from side to side. It's like hanging ghosts floating above our heads! The back of the person watching is cold! Not only that, but the wind blew through the middle of the wicker, sending out a screech like an ordinary ghost crying wolf.
Qiao Fat Man gritted his teeth and said, "No! It's fucking horrible! Second master, can you think of a way? ”
The second uncle thought for a moment, and then took out a blood coin from his body. I found a flat piece of ground and held the blood money between my two fingers. Then, turn it hard. The blood money spun rapidly on the ground.
As the blood money swirled, there was a "buzzing" sound.
Strange things have happened!
The blood money went around for about two minutes. Not only does it not stop, but it turns faster and faster, and the louder it turns! In the end, it almost overshadowed the howling of ghosts and wolves above us.
Suddenly, the second uncle shouted violently. Then, he stretched out a finger and quickly pressed it on the spinning blood money.
With a "snap" of blood money, he was pressed to the ground by the second uncle.
At the same time, the "buzz" of the blood money spinning and the howling of the wind overhead are all gone! There was silence all around! It's almost unexpectedly quiet!
In this stark contrast, our hearts are a little unbearable!
After relieving for a while, the second uncle said to me without raising his head: "Lin Shuo, incense!" ”
I said yes, and took out three sticks of incense and a lighter from my backpack.
The second uncle lit the incense and planted it in front of the willow tree. He muttered: "Lin Shuo, you have to remember that when our Lin family does yin things, we must salute first and then soldier!" Don't strike first if you have to! Do you understand? ”
I nodded, and I agreed.
After the second uncle finished paying homage to the incense, he turned around and walked into the ancestral hall.
A few of us hurriedly raised our heels too!
At this moment, Tang Xiao's voice came out: "Second uncle, look at that incense!" ”
Hearing Tang Xiao's words, we all turned our heads to look at the three incense sticks that the second uncle had planted on the ground.
At this glance, they are all stunned!
At this moment, the three sticks of incense are still burning. However, the burning is not the same as before! I don't know when the color of incense began to become blood-red! It's as if the eyes of some beast are staring at us viciously! We have a chill down our backs!
After the second uncle glanced at it, he just snorted coldly, but he didn't say anything. He turned around and pushed open the door of the ancestral hall.
As the door was pushed open, a biting chill immediately hit the face. I couldn't help but shudder!
The second uncle frowned and said, "It seems that the situation is even more serious than I imagined!" If we hadn't come here today, he would have died! ”
Hearing this, we also followed the second uncle's gaze and looked at the second dog.
I saw that the second dog was staring at us at this time and smiling! On his face, dots of corpse spots had already begun to appear. And he didn't know it, just looked at us quietly.
The second uncle walked over and said to the second dog: "You don't have to pretend here!" I know why you forcibly took possession of his body until he died. That's because he knows your secrets! Originally, I didn't want to embarrass you. But now lives are at stake! I had to make a move, too! ”
