Chapter 11: Talking about ghosts
The old man's surname was Hu, and he lived in Tangjiazhuang, a village about two days' drive from Huaqingguan, and the story took place on the eve of the beginning of spring in 85.
There were many things that happened in Tangjiazhuang back then, and there was no way to explain them with the current science, but at that time, those things were tightly managed, and those things were hidden for more than ten years, and almost no one knows the truth until now, and no one knows what happened in that village.
At that time, the traffic in the village was blocked, and the people in the mountains could not tighten their belts and could not pull out two dollars of oil and water, Tangjiazhuang was also the poorest compared with several surrounding villages, so poor that any one with a radio would become the condiment of the whole village, but around the beginning of spring that year, the river at the east end of the village suddenly had more "household goods". On the shallows washed by the river, there are porcelain bowls, clay pots and other utensils.
Every household in the village is poor, and when they see these things, they take them home and divide them, but the river water seems to have been thrown into a cornucopia, and the next day some new utensils fell on the river beach, and even some people picked up scattered silver on the edge of the river beach, and there are a lot of celadon that looks exquisitely made, but unfortunately it is a pity that it is broken a lot in the erosion and collision of the mud and stones at the bottom of the river.
The people of Tangjiazhuang wanted to make a fortune in a muffled voice, but they were sued by the neighboring village, which shocked the town, and a group of archaeological teams from the center did not make much effort to find an ancient tomb in the surrounding mountains and forests.
At that time, the village head, Old Man Tang, was still in the town to report the situation to the superiors, and by the time he returned, a third of the ancient tomb had already been excavated. The things dug out of it have been identified as something from the Wanli period, and the name of the tomb owner is no longer available, but it is rumored that this is the ancestor of the village people who don't know how many generations ago.
By this time, there were already many voices opposing the archaeological team to continue excavating, if it really continued to dig like this, wouldn't it be equivalent to digging your own ancestral grave? But at that time, the town had also conveyed instructions to Donald that in any case, it was necessary to assist the archaeological team in the excavation work. Old Man Tang himself also understands that if he really digs up a big news from here, the leaders of the town and himself can be promoted, and if he can allocate another sum of money to the village, then the people in the village can also live a good life.
Under the guidance of Old Man Tang, the excavation work continued until the stone coffin of the tomb owner was dragged out of the tomb.
A large red stone coffin hewn out of stone......
Speaking of this, Old Man Hu's face changed significantly, as if he recalled something that made him extremely afraid, and he was silent for a long time, and several old people drinking tea around him were about to speak, but they were interrupted by Old Man Hu with a wave of his hand, he drank hard and continued to speak.
In fact, when in the tomb, there are a lot of delicate bronzing patterns on the stone coffin, the golden light shines under the imprint of the flashlight, and the carving on the red stone coffin is particularly exquisite, after dragging out of the tomb without putting a bag of cigarettes, the gilded oil paint will fall down layer by layer, and before the archaeological team members have time to protect, a layer of oil paint will all turn into fly ash, which will make the people in the village feel distressed, but where can it be stopped.
The coffin must be opened in front of the whole village, this is the last concession made by the village and Old Donald after several disputes, after all, the archaeological team has been digging for so long, everyone wants to see what the ancestors in the tomb look like.
But no one expected that this time the coffin would become the source of the disaster in the entire Tangjiazhuang......
