Chapter 19: Doubts about Truth and Falsehood

Thinking about it, I always feel that this matter is very suspicious, Gu Zhong is suspicious, and Curator Wei is even more suspicious.

Back at the Hekou District Cultural Center, the three of them were all like ashes, as if they were seriously ill.

"Are you alright? You guys"

I am concerned.

"I'm in such bad health today, I don't usually get motion sickness!"

Yang Guoshan seemed to be talking to himself, and it seemed to answer me.

"Stay for lunch! Lao Wang. There is a Lu restaurant near here, which is very authentic, just like a taste we ate when we were soldiers. ”

The four of them sat quietly around the eight dishes, moving their chopsticks once in a while.

I finally couldn't hold it anymore and whispered to the thin old man beside me, "Old man, don't you think this ancient clock is a little strange?"

"Strange? I seem to feel this way, but I can't think of anything strange for a while. ”

I asked, "Have you ever found such an ancient clock before?"

"In fact, the ancient bell is not unusual, there are all in the ancient temples, but there are big and small, basically iron, this bell is like copper but not copper, like iron and not iron, but a little special."

Actually, I mean strange, referring to the feeling that this clock brings to people, not the material of its ancient clock.

It was clear that the thin old man had misunderstood my words, but that was just a reminder to him.

"That's not right! That's not right! This ancient clock did not soak in water for a long time! ”

Yang Guoshan and Wang Jiliang were also stunned, looking up at the old man, waiting for his next step.

The old man's expression had become extremely ugly, and his eyes were about to pop out.

"I used to focus on dating ancient clocks! Ignoring a problem, that is, the metal rust on the surface of this ancient clock can only be formed by burying it in the soil for many years, and this is not the case in the water! ”

The old man's voice was low and trembling.

"Are you saying that this ancient bell is not the one that was picked up in the Yellow River?" Yang Guoshan asked.

"If your previous narrative is correct, it shouldn't."

Yang Guoshan looked at the old man, then at me and Wang Jiliang, frowned and said, "This is strange, could it be that the surname Wei made a mistake?" ”

This meal was extremely depressed, and Yang Guoshan wanted to go to Linxian again immediately, but was persuaded by Wang Jiliang.

"It seems that they deliberately took us to see this bell, don't find out until we find out the truth of the matter!"

"What then?" Yang Guoshan asked angrily.

"Let's let Lao Sun help me ask first, anyway, that Director Wei will contact you in the next two days!" Wang Jiliang said.

After eating, Wang Jiliang and I went back to the village first, and Yang Guoshan said that as long as there was news, he would notify us as soon as possible.

Back in the village, Wang Jiliang first called his classmate Lao Sun, who was the deputy director, and asked him to help ask about the ancient bell of the cultural center. I went to Yanli's house.

In the past two days, those strange snakes did not appear again, and the people in the village gradually became less afraid, and there were only a few people who visited Yanli's house that night, and they went home at nine o'clock.

After meditating, I was about to whisper something in my arms when I heard someone banging on the door outside.

While shooting, he shouted: "Xiao Zhen! Xiao Zhen! Something happened, open the door! ”

As soon as I heard it, I could hear it, this was the voice of Xue Chunshan, a large sheep farmer in the village.

It's strange to blush, my small dilapidated house and Yanli's house are separated by two alleys and a street, but in the past two days, people who have been looking for me know that they have come to Yanli's house, and they think about it in turn, and their hearts are also beautiful, which does not indirectly show that everyone acquiesces that I and Yanli are a pair!

When I opened the door, I saw Xue Chunshan covered in sweat, covered in dirt, and his clothes had a few holes.

"What's wrong with you? Uncle Xue? ”

"Xiao Zhen! Let's go and help find your aunt! She could ...... Could something have happened? ”

"What's wrong?" I asked

"In the evening, there were a few sheep missing in my sheepfold, she went to the river to look for sheep, but she has not come back until now, I have the courage to look for it, and I saw the sheep that were eaten on the Yellow River beach and only had their skins, but ......"

Before he could finish speaking, he began to cry in a hurry.

"Let's talk as we go!" I shouted.

I talked to Yanli, asked her to close the gate, and followed Xue Chunshan along the road west of the village to the Yellow River.

"Uncle Xue! It's not that I'm talking about you, Secretary Wang has reminded everyone in the loudspeaker! Don't get close to the Yellow River these days! ”

"We also know, but so many sheep have to eat and drink! Looking at the past two days, it seems to be fine, so I ......"

"It's come to this, don't talk about it, hurry up and find your aunt!"

The flood waters of the Yellow River have receded, and on the bank is a river beach more than two miles wide, and walking on it looks very empty.

My eyesight has improved several times since the other day, and I can see the scene within a few kilometers at a glance.

Everyone in Laomiao Village knew that I followed a master to learn Taoism, and I didn't hide it, and told him directly:

"Uncle Xue, my aunt is not around here! We'll have to look for ...... in front."

Walking along the Yellow River beach, I looked around as I went, and the Yellow River at night was like a wide satin, so that no one would associate him with those poisonous snakes.

After walking for a few miles, I suddenly saw a layer of fog on the surface of the river, which was very evil, not all of the river surfaces, but only the one in front of me.

Moreover, the fog is blue in color, and seems to be spinning, which obviously does not look like the usual fog.

Xue Chunshan couldn't see anything, and wanted to continue walking, but was stopped by me.

"Not quite right! Uncle Xue, will there be fog in the Yellow River this season? ”

"Fogging? How can there be fog in the summer, and besides, it is just ten o'clock. ”

As he spoke, my eyes remained fixed on the mist, and suddenly I saw a crack peeking out of the mist.

Through the gap, I saw a red silhouette, looming in the center of the pale blue mist.

My first reaction was: There are red fish in this Yellow River?

Goldfish are red, but how can there be such a big goldfish in the Yellow River? Besides, the color is not right!

I secretly carried the heat flow in my chest, so that the power gathered in my eyes, and a miraculous scene happened. The heat flow made my whole eyes extremely comfortable, and when I looked at the fog again, I actually saw through it.

Oh, my God! This is the legendary clairvoyant eye? What an exciting discovery! I couldn't help but laugh out loud. In an instant, several unspeakable images flashed in my mind......

"Xiao Zhen, what are you laughing at?"

Xue Chunshan asked me for some reason.

"It's okay......"

As soon as I finished saying the word "thing", I could see clearly what the red thing was in the middle of the pale blue mist.

It turned out to be a woman in a red blouse! Her whole face was buckled into the water, and her hair was floating on the water, which was very scary.

"Uncle Xue, is my aunt wearing a red shirt!" I asked.

"Yes! How do you know? Xue Chunshan subconsciously looked around while answering me.

"Uncle Xue! There's one thing, I said, you have to hold on! The aunt may have ......"

"What? Xiao Zhen? What do you say is wrong with your aunt? ”

He grabbed me by the collar with both hands and asked me with wide eyes.

"There was a woman in the river, she was supposed to be dead, and she was dressed in red......"

By the end, my voice was so low that I could barely hear myself.

……

Soon, we called the people from the village, and the two bold ones accompanied me into the water and pulled the man up, it was really Xue Chunshan's daughter-in-law, the person was already stiff, but the strange thing was that there was still a smile on his face.

"The Yellow River Dao Technique" narrates: The evil of the Yellow River gradually became stronger by absorbing the yin qi and resentment of the drowning people, and I can clearly feel that the seemingly calm Yellow River in front of me is actually hidden and turbulent, maybe it can not only control insects and snakes, but also affect people close to him.

The body of Xue Chunshan's daughter-in-law was carried back to the village and placed in the village ancestral hall.

Lying in bed at night, I couldn't help but think about these things, all kinds of signs show that the power of the Yellow River evil is gradually becoming stronger, but what I can't figure out is where is the ancient bell that Old Man Sun said can suppress the evil of the Yellow River?

Who is lying? Is it Curator Wei or that skinny old man?

Because I had something on my mind, I didn't do everything I could to take advantage of the showy as I did the previous two nights.

Seeing me like this, she was a little uncomfortable, silent for a while, and finally couldn't hold it anymore, took the initiative to stick to me, put her arm around me and asked:

"What's wrong, Xiao Zhen? What do you think! ”

"I'm thinking about what happened today, I just can't figure it out." I replied casually.

"If you can't figure it out, just let it go first, maybe when you don't think about it, the answer will come out by itself."

I felt that there was some truth in what she said, so I stopped thinking about it, and stretched out a pair of colored hands to grab Yanli.

'Ahh

After a few minutes, the flamboyant was left with only underwear.

After breakfast the next day, Wang Jiliang called out to me outside the courtyard gate:

"Xiao Zhen, come out!"

Although Wang Jiliang is only in his fifties, his behavior is old-fashioned, and in his eyes, Yanli and I are two young people, so he naturally does not enter the house.

"What's wrong? Is there a letter about the ancient bell? ”

"You kid guessed right! Many people may not believe this, but guess what, while salvaging the ancient bell from the Yellow River, a local tomb of the Yuan Dynasty was dug up, in addition to a wooden coffin, there is also an almost identical bronze bell. ”

"Two bronze bells? That...... Could it be that Curator Wei made a mistake! He may not be in charge of it! ”

Wang Jiliang replied: "I want to go again, if I make a mistake, I have to change it quickly, so as not to have too many dreams at night!" ”

Before coming to my house, Wang Jiliang had already contacted Yang Guoshan by phone, and he was waiting for us at the district cultural center, willing to accompany us again.

Nonsense Hugh.

It was the four of us who went together, and this time I learned that this thin old man's surname was Li, and the people in the cultural center called him "Antique Li".

In the car, Yang Guoshan frowned, he didn't speak, and when he was almost at the place, I couldn't help but ask him: "Director Yang, you have something on your mind!" ”

"It's not a concern, it's just a little worried! Since yesterday, I have called seven or eight times, but I have not contacted Brother Wei, and I feel faintly uneasy, always feeling that something has happened to him. ”

When we arrived at the cultural center, we found another deputy director, Wu Zhiqiang.

"Are you looking for Da Wei? Didn't he go to deliver you the ancient bell yesterday afternoon? How? You didn't receive it? ”

"Yesterday afternoon? But he said that there is still a procedure to go, and he has to wait for two days! ”

"Impossible! It's all a unit, what procedures are not procedures, and they were approved in person, and Director Li also instructed him to find a car to send it to you that day......"

As soon as I heard it, my head was big, and the matter really happened to this surnamed Wei!
