018 Descending the Tiger's Den
How Wang Zaijin died, and whether his death had anything to do with the Chaoyuan Immortal Battle Diagram is still unknown. The matter has come to this point, even if there is a little clue, it must be pursued.
Wang was a wealthy merchant during his lifetime, so it was not difficult to find out where he lived. Master is well-known in the local area, so in order to avoid suspicion, the Yang father and daughter and I came to the Wang family, an independent villa with a garden.
The place is spacious, but it looks like a ruin. The door is full of birds, the big iron gate is full of rust, and the yard is overgrown with weeds, and it takes a long time to ring the door bell before anyone comes to open the door.
The one who opened the door was an old housekeeper, and from his mouth we learned that this house is currently owned by Wang Zaijin's son Wang Tong, but since Wang Zaijin's death, his son is a mediocre person, not only did not carry forward the Wang family business, but made the rivers go down, so that he had to sell his property to live.
We looked at each other dumbfounded, no wonder we saw Wang Zaijin's calligraphy and painting in the antique store, it turned out that the door was unfortunately out of order.
After entering the door, Yang Zhenchuan claimed to be a friend of Wang Zaijin before his death, and when he passed by this place, he came to the old man's house to have a look. The second master is known for his 'acting' talent, and he immediately pretended to be seamless. Of course, you can't ask directly when you speak, so the second master played a cautious eye and deliberately led the king to the direction of the warmth and coldness of the people in the past.
Wang Tong is unlucky, it sounds natural to be a big deed, saying that in the past, when the Wang family was in the scenery, the door was crowded with all kinds of gifts, and the set of close friends and relatives, now the Wang family is not good, and no one comes during the New Year's holidays. It's really rich in the mountains with distant relatives, and poor in the downtown no one asks.
As the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and even if Wang Tong falls to the current situation, he is dozens of times richer than us. When he said this, he was naturally complaining, and he embarrassed us on the side. But the second master did not change color, talked loudly, and 'unintentionally' mentioned that fortune and feng shui also have a lot to do with it, and he himself happened to be an earth master, and he also had a little attainment in this way.
Wang Tong was really fooled and said that since this is the case, please ask Uncle Yang to bother and help look at his father's grave. As for the honorarium, the younger brother should be doubled.
Yang Zhenchuan waved his hand and shook his head, how can this be done, how can I be embarrassed to ask for your money in a world friend.
I found that this Wang Tong is not as incompetent as the legend, he still has an eye, he deliberately said this to try what our purpose is, this has nothing to do, it is always suspicious.
Fortunately, the second master is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and these words dispelled Wang Tong's worries, and he was undoubtedly convinced of Yang Zhenchuan's identity.
Soon, Wang Tong personally drove us to Wang Zaijin's cemetery.
I don't know Feng Shui, so I have to watch the 'performance' of the second master. I saw Yang Zhenchuan holding a compass, walking around the cemetery, frowning, and Wang Tong was anxious.
"Uncle Yang, how is it?" Wang Tong said urgently.
Yang Zhenchuan said, "Here is the back of the mountains and waters, according to Kanyuxue, the mountains are prosperous, the water is prosperous, and the wealth is ......."
Hearing this, Wang Tongcai breathed a sigh of relief.
Yang Zhenchuan continued: "However, this is not the case here, because although the mountains are facing the water at the back, the mountains on both sides push forward, spread over and then retract, in the shape of a half-moon, and the water in front is blocked by the tall mountains in front, and the wind cannot be blown all year round, in other words, this water is 'stagnant water'." In general, this place is pictographically speaking, it is the mouth of the tiger. Because the mountains behind him gradually rise, it is still a descending tiger. It is dangerous enough in the mouth of the tiger, and in the mouth of the tiger in the lower mountain, it is even more of a fierce place. ”
After hearing this, Wang Tonggang sank with a hint of laughter, and sighed: "No wonder the luck has been bad in recent years, it turns out that the previous earth master was not at a good level, and he looked away and chose my father's grave in the place of great evil." Uncle Yang, is there any way to remedy it? ”
"The only way to do this now is to take out the bones of Lingtang and then choose a treasure place to move them for burial."
Wang Tong pondered for a moment, "That's what I said, but after all, breaking ground disturbed the purity of the ancestors, and the stakes are very high, Uncle Yang, let me think about it again." ”
Yang Zhenchuan didn't force it, but told Wang Tong to make a decision as soon as possible, because he would leave Beihai in three days. Wang Tong thanked us again and again, and said that he would notify us no matter what the idea was within three days.
On the way back, I praised the second master. Because of his blowing, Wang Tong really believed that there was a problem with the feng shui of his father's cemetery, and once the coffin was relocated, we would have the opportunity to know why Wang Zaijin died.
Yang Zhenchuan shook his head and said with a solemn face, "Yes, in the Wang family, I am talking nonsense, but what I said in the cemetery is true." This cave of Wang Zaijin is called the Tiger's Den of the Lower Mountain, which is very dangerous, and future generations will have a disaster of blood and light. But I think that although this Wang Tong is a loser, he is also living a very nourishing life. In this way, there are only two possibilities, first, Wang Zaijin did not die. Second, the cemetery is not buried with Wang Zaijin's body. This is the real purpose of my request for the coffin to be relocated. ”
At this time, Yang Dong suddenly said: "No, there is still a possibility. ”
"What?" Uncle Chuan and I asked at the same time.
"There is also the possibility that Wang Tong's mother Hongxing went out of the wall to steal the man, Wang Tong is not Wang Zaijin's son......"
Yang Zhenchuan said angrily: "What a mess, are these words also what you should say as a girl?" ”
Yang Dong stuck out his tongue and grimaced.
Strictly speaking, what Yang Dong said is not impossible, what the truth is, it really depends on the results of the coffin autopsy. I secretly prayed that Wang Tong must agree to the coffin and be reburied.
When we got back to the shop, we told Master about what had happened today. Master, there is no better way. However, he brought another piece of news.
This news was brought back by him and Hu Kun from a visit outside, in the area of Niutou Mountain in the eastern suburbs of Beihai, the poultry raised by the villagers recently died inexplicably at night, and the corpses without exception left a large hole in the neck, which looked like they were killed by some kind of fierce beast, and the strange thing is that the blood of the dead livestock was sucked dry, but fortunately there were no casualties.
For a while, people were panicked, and the city was full of wind and rain. Some people say that it is a beast that came down from Niutou Mountain, and it is even more exaggerated that there are zombies in the mountain, and after eating livestock, the next step is to eat people.
I don't quite understand what this strange story has to do with the old blind man.
The Master explained that the old blind man's imp possessed the baby's corpse and became a corpse. The corpse was born, and its vitality was seriously injured not long ago, and it was just the time when it needed blood to nourish it, and the strange things that appeared in Niutou Mountain were probably related to it. In any case, let's go and see, if we can't get rid of the old blind man, at least one of his arms will be broken.
I thought about it, and it was. If the corpse is not removed, it is always a major problem.
Yang Zhenchuan wanted to wait for news from Wang Tong, so he stayed at home. I thought that Uncle Kun and Master and I would go to Niutou Mountain to have a look, but Yang Dong was a monkey who couldn't sit still, so he had to follow, so in desperation, he had to go with four people.
It was already noon when we went to Niutou Village, and we walked a few villages and found that there were no people, and when we asked, we knew that everyone had gone to the ancestral hall. Ancestral halls have an important position in the countryside, and are generally used to worship ancestors, or to discuss affairs among clansmen. With so many people going there, there must have been something big.
When I asked, I found out that because of the strange and sensational things that had happened recently, the old man in the clan invited someone to come back to exorcise evil spirits.
Asked the direction, came to the ancestral hall of Niutou Mountain, and saw a circle of people inside.
There is an offering table in the middle, on the table there are three fragrant fruits, sandalwood curling, a red-nosed Taoist priest, holding a peach wood sword, stepping on Yu steps, picking up a pile of spiritual runes.
After doing this, the Taoist priest asked people to take a bowl of soil, then took out a lotus seed from his body, soaked it in boiling water, and planted it in the mud.
The red-nosed Taoist priest said loudly: "Fellow villagers, the success or failure of today's spell is here, if the lotus seeds bloom for a while, it means that our prayer is successful, and everyone will be safe and sound after that." ”
As soon as this remark came out, the villagers discussed: "How is this possible, let alone dry lotus seeds, even if the lotus seeds are planted, they will not bloom immediately." ”
The red-nosed Taoist priest didn't distinguish either, just concentrating.
After a while, a magical scene happened, a white lotus broke through the soil in the mud bowl, gave birth to buds, and then bloomed, only in an instant.
The crowd that was still talking just now suddenly fell silent......
