500. Jixiang Hotel
We came to a small town next to Daming Lake, Li Qing said, he has been to Jinan, when he was a student, he went to college in Jinan, his current wife, is on the shore of Daming Lake met, when Zhu Gege was still on the air, the two performed a modern love story.
And there is a deserted ancient tomb on the north side of Daming Lake, this place is little known, but it is also the beginning of Li Qing's Taoism, he said that this deserted ancient tomb existed before the founding of the People's Republic of China, and its origin can no longer be traced, and it is often used as a mass grave. When beating the little devils, thousands of corpses were thrown here, filled with soil, and mated into a ditch, and later on the eve of liberation, because of a flash flood, it turned into a quagmire, so it was also called "Huanggu Pond".
The barren ancient tomb is not far from Daming Lake, it is only more than 30 miles away, and the old people in the vicinity often talk about the barren ancient tomb in their spare time, saying that the feng shui there is not right, it is a scourge, no matter what, don't go there, especially at night, even if you want to take a long detour, you can't pass through there.
The adults in the neighborhood even warned us not to go there to play, saying that there were ghosts there who would eat children and eat them as blood steamed buns, so those children were curious and afraid of that place.
Later, there was a major incident in the quagmire that shocked the radius of ten miles and eight towns, a seven-year-old child did not go home for a day because he skipped class with a friend, and was beaten by his father when he came back, so he was resentful, and ran away from home in the middle of the night......
It wasn't until the next day that someone found the child in the ancient tomb, but it was already a corpse, he had no clothes on his body, he was lying naked on the ground, and the flesh color of his whole body had shown a strange white, just like the color of white steamed buns after they were steamed.
His body is no longer the thin body shape he used to be, but like a balloon being blown up, his body is slightly bulging, which makes him look "fatter" a lot.
But these are not enough to make people shocking, the most shocking thing is that the whole body of the child is bulging large and small, dense bubbles, like the hands are burned by extremely high temperature steam bubbles!
The strange thing is that the child is almost steamed all over his body, only the head is not cooked, according to the people who saw it, his face is fine except for some black ash, if it is not so, I can't recognize him, but the eyes are round and big and red, full of resentment, and it looks almost scared to death!
No one knows how he went to the Deserted Ancient Tomb, whether he was killed by someone or provoked a ghost and was eaten as a steamed bun. It's just that after his parents found out, they didn't pick up his body, they all sat on the ground at home and stayed stupid for hysteria for a day, and at night, a fire broke out, and the three tiled houses instantly burned to a white ground, and the couple committed suicide and died......
This matter spread very widely near Daming Lake, making people panic, and even the customs and customs have changed, how vicious and how to start beating his son in the past, breaking shoes and smowing big mouths, wood chips rubbing ass and eggs, kicking a dog to eat shit, slapping a slap full of stars, it doesn't look like his own life at all, and he can't wait to be killed to relieve his hatred. But after this incident, the attitude of adults towards children turned 180 degrees, and they didn't beat children much, for fear that their children would also run away from home and seek death and life, which would be a tragedy.
In this way, it fueled the arrogance of these children's mischievous mischievousness, skipping school and skipping school, fighting, going up trees and going into the water, climbing the house and revealing the tiles, stealing chickens and touching dogs and peeking at the girls to take a bath were all let go of their hands and feet to do, at that time Li Qing and his wife also went to school here, at that time the two were just friends, and then at another party, his wife disappeared, Li Qing remembered this allusion and ran over to look for it, but he never thought to see his future wife swimming in the quagmire, the scene at that time was very gloomy, According to Li Qing's words, it was his wife who was possessed by something and then swam in it.
However, when Li Qing went to save his wife, he accidentally jumped into the quagmire only to find that there were countless hands under the quagmire, grabbing him and dragging him under the quagmire, and Li Qing was still a beginner at that time, so he used his own corpse raising technique to summon his first zombie, that is, a white-haired zombie, the zombie was still on Li Qing's birthday, his eldest brother Li Longhua gave him a birthday gift, it was a sister zombie, and he could replace his right hand to comfort him if he was free.
And it was because of the zombie that he rescued his wife, I thought that Li Qing's wife would abandon him because of Li Qing's identity, but he didn't expect that Li Qing's wife was also a family of corpse keepers, just a small family, and then the two hit it off and became a couple.
I was amused to hear it, and as I was walking on the road, I asked, "Do you know what is under this quagmire?" ”
"It's a group of dead children...... Li Qing sighed, "In the past era, the devils were rampant and domineering here, in order to force the whereabouts of the Communist Army, they used children as a threat to persecute the local villagers, but the villagers were all temperamental, so they didn't tell them, but they hurt their own children...... The children have not been reincarnated because of resentment, and they have become water ghosts, often harming some of the bear children around them......"
This topic is obviously a little unhappy, Li Qing seemed preoccupied, he took out a cigarette as he walked, but this time I took out the cigarette and handed it to him, it was a Marlboro cigarette, he bit the cigarette and did not light the fire, and continued: "Later, I and my daughter-in-law spent two months in the world, and all the water ghosts in it were completed, you also know that the corpse keeper is not good at exceeding, so it took so much time, if Lao Feng was present at the time, you recited a mantra of the Onmyoji, and the water ghosts would all disappear......"
I shook my head and smiled bitterly, took a puff of cigarette and said, "Brother, you don't know me, in the ninety-seventh year, I was still playing with the children of the neighboring village at that time, and as for any Taoist or other things, I didn't even know a fart." ”
Li Qing smiled, he looked ahead and said, "It's almost time to get there, let's get ready, if it's the dragon group, we have to take it seriously." ”
I nodded and didn't speak, I immediately straightened up my clothes, then wiped my shoes on the lawn and walked with Li Qing on a street next to Daming Lake, which was an old street, all of which were quaint houses, and I looked at the address on the paper, and soon found a very inconspicuous guest house.
I feel strange because the name on the document says Jixiang Hotel, but now how did it become Jixiang Guest House again?! However, this is an opportunity after all, Li Qing and I still walked forward, and happened to see four middle-aged people playing mahjong in the guest house, three men and one woman, all holding cigarettes, and the woman in flower clothes was obviously the boss, she bit the cigarette holder and came over and squinted at us: "Are you here to stay in the hotel or hour?" ”
"I want to ask, was this place called Jixiang Hotel before?" I asked.
Suddenly, when I said this, the woman looked unnatural, and she said with a blue face: "You say it again, what restaurant?" ”
"Jixiang Hotel." Li Qing repeated my words on one side.
At this time, the other three men also put down the mahjong in their hands, and the four of them talked a few words together, and I looked out of the street and found that the old street was very old, the ground was patched asphalt, and the maple trees on both sides were very old, the trunks were very thick, and the walls of the storefronts next to them were also mottled.
And at this time, a boy ran outside the door, playing with the hoop hoop, which made me stunned for a while, I also liked to play this when I was a child, and even removed the hoop on the toilet at home, and then broke a wire loop and ran forward, in which era of scarce toys, such a simple thing is all we have in childhood
The woman snuffed out the cigarette butt, her brass bell-like eyes widened, and she said, "Is there a job?" ”
