Chapter 12: The Past of the Glove (Graveyard Encounter)
Lin Yuan was taken aback when he heard this, although the Chen family was not a transcendent family, but it was also prosperous, there were nearly 30 men, women and children in the family, plus the relatives inside and outside the door, the total number was close to more than 100 people, how could such a prosperous family die in just ten years?
The old man saw the suspicion on Lin Yuan's face, "This Chen family is buried at the south entrance of the city, if you don't believe it, you will know." ”
"Seongnam?" Lin Yuan couldn't help but wonder when he heard this.
"Then Chen Yuan took down a piece of land in the south of the city many years ago and moved his ancestral grave over."
After hearing this, Lin Yuan asked again where the Chen family's cemetery was, the old man knew everything, Lin Yuan hugged his fists and walked towards the south of the city, as if he vaguely heard the old man behind him muttering to himself, and muttered in a low voice, "Why do so many people come to ask the Chen family during this time, isn't it ......?"
The voice behind was too weak Lin Yuan couldn't really hear it, only listening to the first half of the sentence, could it be that someone else came to ask about it? Lin Yuan had been thinking about the geography of the north and south in his heart at this time, and he didn't think much about it when he kept the old man's words in mind.
Speaking of the south of the city, in the early years, with the Chen family contracted a large piece of land outside the south gate as an ancestral tomb, many small businesses and small households also smelled business opportunities, after all, it is the blessed land chosen by large families, and the poor people often hope to rub on the big families Since they were not stained when they were alive, it is also excellent to be able to follow the light to protect their ancestors and grandchildren when they die. Many people think that this place is a cursed Jedi, and some family members have moved out of the ancestral grave and returned to the original place, and those who have no foundation can only blame their own bad fate, and over time this place has become a famous mass grave in the city.
The Chen family did not want to move the ancestral grave, but with the bizarre and violent death of the family, bad luck also followed, first the external business was thoroughly investigated by the government because of the violation of the law of the Ming Dynasty, and then because the family was implicated in the Yuan Dynasty as an official, for a time the family was worried about internal and external troubles, the vitality was greatly damaged, and the final ending of the Chen family was also extremely tragic, it is said that Chen Yuan, who was in charge of the family, was finally forced to sell the house on the desperate road, but it is a pity that the old house of the Chen family is a well-known yin house, and there have been rumors that whoever has a relationship with the Chen family will be ruined. No matter how low the price of the house is, no one cares about it, and even the government is afraid that the seizure of the mansion will touch the mold, so they let it go and let the Chen family perish by themselves.
Lin Yuan heard this way, his heart was mixed, the scenes of previous years kept appearing in front of him, and he unconsciously walked to the place where he met Chen Yuan for the first time, Lin Yuan clearly remembered that the government was unwilling to care about them as refugees who went north to take refuge, Lin Yuan took his family all the way to the wall, and during the day he had to mix with the government, the squire, and the market to collect information and make a little relationship, only in the middle of the night could he take a nap, the pressure was unimaginable, that day Lin Yuan came back from the house, most of the sellers heard that they were refugees from the north, Either turn him away or ask for a sky-high price, Lin Yuan had to go home, thinking about where to move again, thinking of the troubles, he couldn't help but be upset, so he found a nearby tavern to get drunk and vent the depression in his heart.
That is, I met Chen Yuan here, and the two of them were more than half drunk, and they even fell in love with Lin Yuan, so they poured out all the things that they couldn't say to the clansmen on weekdays, and they just wanted to find someone to vent their unhappiness, who would have thought that the warm-hearted Chen Yuan would keep Lin Yuan's affairs in mind, and this would have the words of helping Lin Yuan settle the family later.
The sign of the tavern is still crooked, and the boss has re-installed it countless times, but every time it doesn't take long for the signboard to either be crooked or upside down, so people give the boss the nickname "Crutch", Lin Yuan hesitated for a moment and finally didn't enter the tavern, turned his head and went to a stall next to him to buy two catties of soju and a roast chicken, and rushed to the mass grave.
Lin Yuan is a smart man, when he heard about the south of the city, he had a rough conclusion in his heart, when he left the Chen family, he repeatedly told Chen Yuan not to be greedy, the reversal of the mansion has already violated the law of Zhou Tian, if he gets another inch, God will be punished, Chen Yuan must move the ancestral tomb to the south of the city to occupy another place to make money, and bless the family's high-ranking officials to enter the lord and have a wide source of wealth.
But how can there be such a good thing in this world, there will be gains and losses, this is an eternal truth.
Although Lin Yuan had made up his mind about this matter, he still felt that he had not reminded him at the beginning, and only told Chen Yuanyang about the relocation method and did not mention how to settle the Yin Mansion, after all, he did not think about it properly, so that the Chen family ended up like this, and blamed himself for leaving the name of the old mansion in the north of Chen Yuan in the first place, it was kept secret and not too detailed, so many years Chen Yuan's letters were all lost in stone, nine times out of ten it was because of this, if he had received the letter earlier, the Chen family might have been more than that.
Now that the Chen family has long ceased to exist, it is too late to say anything, Lin Yuan didn't believe that the Chen family would be wiped out, but all the way he heard that no one in the Chen family survived, and he couldn't help but be disheartened.
The mass grave is worthy of its name, there are broken monuments everywhere, and then there are many people who were convicted of writing prison or beheaded by the previous dynasty were also hastily buried here by the government, so it looks even more desolate and bleak, many graves have not been worshiped for many years, not to mention adding soil to repair, arching out holes by rats and poisonous insects, and being washed by heavy rain, gradually revealing coffins, some coffins are rotten, funeral clothes are scattered everywhere, and there are charred black trunks nearby, The twisted branches of the trees, without exception, pointing at the vast sky, look particularly hideous and creepy.
The Chen family cemetery is in the middle of the mass grave, the more Lin Yuan walks in, the more he feels that the yin qi is aggravated, and ordinary people may not feel it so strongly, but Lin Yuan, who was born in a feng shui family, has been exposed to these mysterious and mysterious things since he was a child, and his senses are much sharper than ordinary people.
Although the Lin family has always only looked at the Yang Mansion, but Lin Yuan has traveled from south to north, and it is not unheard of in a mass grave, but it is true that such a big yin qi is the first time he has encountered it, and he can't help but cheer up.
After walking a hundred steps, the Chen family cemetery is already close in front of you, looking at it from a distance, the wall outside the cemetery has collapsed at some age, and the gate has been demolished only half of the way, and the remaining half of the wooden door is also moth-eaten and unpresentable, and the half-can't be hung in the air, as soon as a gust of wind blows, it creaks and creaks, this mass grave is surprisingly quiet, and the sound of the wooden door swaying here is more clear and harsh, and Lin Yuan can't help but get nervous.
Maybe it's because the Chen family was still a big family at the beginning, there was a lot of emptiness around the cemetery, and there were no other tombstones mixed in, Lin Yuan walked forward quickly, the Chen family's tombstones were neatly arranged from the inside, but the more they went outside, the more chaotic they were, obviously a hasty burial, Lin Yuan walked around the cemetery, and didn't feel anything unusual, this is a cemetery that he saw at the beginning, but it was bought by Chen Yuan to make a cemetery, although there are many differences between the yang house and the yin house, but if it is a blessed land, most of the differences can be avoided, Lin Yuan found a slightly higher place to observe, here is facing the wind outlet and is a depression, the wind from top to bottom stays in the luck constantly, there are many trees, according to the Yin House, the tree is wood, it represents vitality, the more trees the place is more vigorous, and the dead air of the Yin House merges with each other to form Yin and Yang, and constantly back.
Lin Yuan looked at how he felt that there was no problem, so he returned to the cemetery, wanting to see if there was anything missing from the inside out, this time Lin Yuan looked extremely cautious, since ancient times, he needed to bow down to enter the tomb, Lin Yuan was ashamed of the Chen family, and he shuttled into the cemetery after forty-nine bows, and some of the stele owners Lin Yuan had seen it before his death, and many of them also took care of the Lin family at the beginning, Lin Yuan only felt that he seemed to have the strength of ten thousand jun to press his body, and every step was extremely heavy, when he passed by a tombstone, Lin Yuan could no longer move his footsteps, and it was engraved on it.
"Chen Yuan."
Lin Yuan squatted down, gently stroked the tombstone, and sighed softly, "Big brother, I've come to see you." ”
The tombstone is very new, and the surrounding soil is a little softer than the others, and if you read the inscription carefully, the following eulogy is engraved on it.
"Chen Yuan, born in the sixth year of the Yuan Dynasty, died in the twenty-first year of Hongwu, at the age of sixty-seven, the last vein of the Chen family, Chen Yuan was chivalrous in his life, helped countless people in his life, was loyal and duty-now buried in the ancestral land of the Chen family and ascended to heaven - the servant Zhou Yuanli."
"The last vein of the Chen family." Lin Yuan said to himself, Zhou Yuan Li, this person Lin Yuan also recognized, is an orphan taken in by the previous head of the Chen family, the same age as Chen Yuan, loyal to the Chen family, the Chen family suffered this catastrophe, Chen Yuan was still accompanied by this person when he was dying, which is enough to prove his loyalty. There is also a tomb not far from Chen Yuan's tomb, it seems that it has been dug in advance and has not been buried, Lin Yuan walked to observe carefully for a while, its soil looseness is similar to Chen Yuan, it should be excavated at a time, Zhou Yuanli is similar to Chen Yuan, or a cemetery left by him, life is the highest level of his servant and death, Zhou Yuanli is probably such a person, Lin Yuan couldn't help but be in awe, this tomb is still unburied, if this is the case, compared to Zhou Yuanli is still alive in the world, he is too old to be far away, maybe still in the city, After the mourning, this person will definitely be found.
Lin Yuan took out the soju and roast chicken, began to drum it up by himself, took out two small cups, poured a full cup of wine and sprinkled it in front of Chen Yuan's tomb, a cup was raised above his head and prepared to drink it all, at this time, Lin Yuan suddenly saw Chen Yuan's tombstone and actually stretched out a miserable white hand, grabbed Chen Yuan's tombstone, even if Lin Yuan was brave This sudden scene also frightened Lin Yuan's hand shook and sprinkled all the wine, only to see Lin Yuan react very quickly, dropped the cup and flicked his right hand into his arms and felt out a small pill-like item, and his left hand instantly covered his face, The right hand quickly threw out the small pill, and hit the miserable white hand impartially, the pill exploded in an instant, and a puff of green smoke burst out, the smell was unusually pungent, forcing people to open their eyes, Lin Yuan jumped back two steps behind his back against a tombstone to avoid the range of green smoke, and shouted in his mouth, "Thirty-six Tiangang surrounds my body, seventy-two Beidou is on my shoulder, thousands of miles less than Yangguan Road, Universiade is added to the heavenly prison!" All evils are dispersed, and there are no taboos! ”
The miserable white hand was first painful, and then choked on the green smoke, and let out a burst of coughing, which was actually the voice of a young woman.
"The good guy is still a female ghost, it's not easy to cultivate, and he actually harms people during the day, look at how I accept you today!" Lin Yuan took a deep breath, he had seen a lot of strange things walking in the rivers and lakes, and he was much calmer, he took out a pair of unilateral gloves from his small bag and put them on his right hand, only to see Lin Yuan's right hand flip the switch Two diamond thread nails popped out, and for a while, the killing intent soared, and a radius of several meters was shrouded in slaughter, Lin Yuan was not only bold, but also delicate, estimating the time of Qingyan's actual effect and his own distance, preemptively striking was the best choice, and he made a decision immediately, and secretly thought in his heart, "I'm sorry!" The left foot by the tombstone behind him violently forced, the real person like an arrow from the string popped forward, the left hand grabbed the right wrist, to avoid excessive force caused by the tiger's mouth injury, only to see the miserable white hand shrink back, replaced by a fan, the fan in the light emitted a shock and cold light, it was actually an iron fan!
said that it was too late, and the diamond thread nail came together with the iron fan in an instant, and there were bursts of sparks, "Huh? Lin Yuan exclaimed in surprise, surprised that this King Kong threaded nail did not pierce the fan surface, and did not even leave a scratch, could it be that it was also cast by King Kong? Lin Yuan was suspicious in his heart, the first time he encountered this situation in his life, he couldn't help but pause, but he was surprised, Lin Yuan knew that at this time, he didn't have time to think about it when he was in danger and when he was alive and dead, he was ready to turn over the tombstone and give the other party a fatal blow by surprise, he didn't want to destroy Chen Yuan's tombstone, otherwise the second time, he would even directly use a threaded nail through the tombstone to penetrate into the other party's body.
"Huh!" Lin Yuan roared, leaned forward and was about to exert his strength again, and at this moment, a crisp girl came from behind the tombstone, "Is there something wrong with you?" ”
Person? Lin Yuan was shocked, his waist bowed back, quickly unloaded his strength, took a step back, and said loudly, "Who is pretending to be a ghost, don't come out quickly!" ”
"Cut, come out, come out, do you think this girl is afraid of you?" I saw a slender woman standing up behind the tombstone, this woman was dressed in black, her face was gauzy and she couldn't see her face clearly, and her voice still had a little milk, she felt that her age was not very old, Lin Yuan couldn't help but wonder when she saw this, how could such a big living person hide behind him and not see it just now?
"Who are you? Why in this cemetery? ”
"I still want to ask you, I've been here all along, but I saw you walking around sneakily for fear that you would want to do something bad and hide, hehe, aren't you here to dig a grave? Then I kindly remind you that if you dig this tomb, I am afraid that your family will be ruined in less than ten years. The woman replied, not to be outdone.
"Fart, how could I do such a shit thing?"
"It's so smelly, it's so stinky, you guy's very serious, why do you still talk with dirty words?" From the woman's eyes, Lin Yuan read a deep sense of disgust.
Lin Yuan couldn't help but blush, he wanted to make amends, but after thinking about it, he couldn't weaken his momentum, so he had to snort coldly and asked again What did the woman mean by this.
"I heard that this place is haunted, so I'm just going to take a look, and if I encounter an evil spirit, I'll just eradicate it." What the woman said was an understatement, but Lin Yuan was shocked, firstly, this matter had spread so widely, and secondly, he was quite curious about the identity of the little girl, Lin Yuan had read countless people and did not feel that what the little girl said was false, so he put down his momentum and reintroduced himself.
Before she was halfway through the introduction, the little girl interrupted Lin Yuan impatiently, "Oh, yes, I know, I know, I've heard of your Lin family." ”
"Huh?" This aroused Lin Yuan's interest, how could anyone know about them if the Lin family in this Henan realm rarely set foot in them.
"You must also know about our family, you are also a family, have you ever heard of our Yin Sheng Division?" These words are like thunderbolts in the ears, the Zhou family is one of the six great families of feng shui, the Lin family has always been famous for the point of the yang house, and to discuss the yin house, it must be the Sichuan feng shui family Zhou family, the emperor of the ancient dynasty has given the name Yin Shengsi, and the Lin family's Si Tianjian is in the same vein, but the years change, the ancestors once said that the six great families used to work together, each performing its own duties, but later changed the dynasty and the years changed, and the major families withdrew from the historical stage, and since then they have broken contact, Lin Yuan has also pursued these families, but the vast sea of feng shui families are low-key and abnormal, I had to stop here, I met one of the families today, I was pleasantly surprised, the nature of the feng shui master is special, and I will feel lonely for a long time, and the little feng shui master is mostly a charlatan, how can I not be happy when I meet orthodoxy today, but this situation is not a good day and an auspicious day, otherwise Lin Yuan must have a good banquet for this little girl to have an in-depth exchange.
The little girl's name is Zhou Zirui, this time she went out to practice according to the rules of the clan, her grade is still indebted to the innocent years, finally came out of Sichuan, must have a good time, what clan trials have long forgotten everything, this time came to Henan with the intention of continuing to go north to see the scenery of Saibei, who knew that the foothold heard that the Chen family was haunted, and came to the interest under the inquiry, came to investigate, who knew that he met Lin Yuan here.
Lin Yuan heard that the Zhou family is the best at looking at the Yin House, the so-called art industry has a specialty, and he may have a lot to miss, so he humbly asked Zhou Zirui what is abnormal in this Chen family cemetery, don't look at Zhou Zirui is young and resolute, when he took Lin Yuan to the northwest of the tomb, he saw Zhou Zirui take out a small compass from his bag and put it on the ground, Lin Yuan looked carefully and didn't feel any difference from the portrait of Zhou Tian in his own family, he couldn't help but be a little disappointed, and when he was leaving the number, he saw Zhou Zirui bury the compass in the soil, There is a candle inserted on it, the candle is not ordinary white wax, the whole body is pale gold, I saw Zhou Zirui lighting the candle and pouring the burning wax tears into the soil little by little, Lin Yuan couldn't help but smack his tongue, this Zhou family's method is strange, quite a kind of Miao Jiang secretary's sense of sight.
After a while, Zhou Zirui dug out the compass from the soil, only to see that after the compass met the air, one of the squares actually began to turn pale gold, Zhou Zirui stared at the compass for a long time, looked at Lin Yuan and said.
"There's something wrong with this soil."
