Volume 5 The Curse of the Old Village_Chapter 329 Five Element Stones
I shuddered and asked, "What if I drip blood on that clay statue during the day?" ”
Wang Po said: "Then the seal of the clay statue will be unlocked, and your grandfather's remnant soul will indeed merge with his whole soul, but when the time comes, your soul will be sucked into the clay statue to replace your grandfather's remnant soul." And if the mud statue lacks the guard of your grandfather's remnant soul, those people in the village will snatch the mud tire unscrupulously, and the blood on its body will be replenished. When the time comes, they will be resurrected in another way. As a result of the resurrection in this way, it is possible to get out of the village. But unlike normal people, they have to feed on blood, and they become a kind of vampire. At that time, the animals and humans outside may suffer. ”
After listening to Wang Po, I felt scared for a while. If Fat Dahai hadn't arrived in time at that time, I'm afraid I would have done something wrong. There are not hundreds of people in the village, but dozens of people, and these dozens of people have become vampires, what kind of chaos will they have to go out?
"So, my grandfather made clay statues out of blood mud to calm these villagers and prevent them from becoming vampires?"
Wang Po nodded: "That's not the case, but I'm the only one who knows the inside story." In fact, your grandfather's purpose at that time was not like this, he just wanted these people to worship the clay statue, and the blood on their bodies would gradually be sucked into the clay statue, and when the time came, when the blood on their bodies was reduced to a certain extent, these people would die naturally. When all the people of the village die of natural causes, the clay statue will be destroyed, and his own soul will return to itself. It's just that he didn't expect that due to the particularity of the geography here, after the blood of these people is empty, they will become a combination of soul and body, and they can still act and live like normal people in the form of monsters derived from this derivation. And when this clay statue was made, it could only last for 50 years. After fifty years, the clay statue will be useless. ”
I was stunned: "Isn't it fifty years now?" ”
Wang Po shook her head: "To be exact, it is forty-nine years, eleven months and eight days. ”
"That means that in less than a month, the clay statues will be destroyed, and those people will become vampires?"
Wang Po nodded again: "That's right." But they didn't even want to wait for these 20 days. They let you eat the eggs of the blood fountain, but they won't kill you. It's just that I can use that Gu worm to take your blood, and the purpose is also to break the seal of the clay statue. ”
Speaking of which, I know secrets that I didn't know before, but more questions arise.
Since their purpose is the same, why did that Xu Dongyang remind me in private and not let me eat the Blood Spring egg? Could it be something to do with the five strange black stones I was carrying?
Thinking of this, I hurriedly took out the remaining three stones on my body and handed them to Mrs. Wang: "Grandma Wang, what do you see what this thing is for?" ”
Wang Po took the three and a half stones, approached the candle and looked at it carefully, and gave it back to me: "I know, your grandfather didn't expect you to encounter poisonous silkworms back then, but he still left you a sheepskin map. So these rocks are the real purpose of your grandfather who asked you to come here
Target. These three pieces are wood and stone, water stone and flint, but there should be three more pieces, which are gold and earth and stone, and the five stones of gold, wood, water, fire and earth are collectively called the five element stones. ”
"Five Element Stones? Is the strange symbol on the stone the symbol of the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth? ”
"That's right. It was a kind of celestial rune, and I recognized it. ”
"Then what's the use of these Five Elements Stone?"
"Regarding the use of these Five Elements Stones, one is to represent your identity and prove that you are a descendant of the Li family, because your grandfather will not give these stones to outsiders. When you return with the Five Elements Stone, you will be considered to have fulfilled your grandfather's promise. ”
I nodded, when I first entered the village, Xu Changhe did use the stones on his body and the stones I handed to him to verify it.
Wang Po then said: "The second use, at that time, your grandfather once made a promise that these five element stones are five stones, and each stone is divided into two, five stones of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, and Xu Changhe and the other five people each hold half of it. When your grandfather, or one of your grandfather's descendants, returns, he will give half of it to one of them. Then this person can hold a whole piece of the Five Elements Stone. The person who takes the lead in obtaining the complete Five Elements Stone should have certain benefits, but what the benefits are, I don't know this. ”
"Shall I give this stone to one of them, then?"
Wang Po glared at me: "Are you stupid or what?" As long as you don't hand over the Five Elements Stone in your hand, they can't be so united with each other, as long as they have their own selfish intentions, they can contain each other, and they can better protect you. ”
After listening to Wang Po say this, my brain was even more confused, if it was really as Wang Po said, then what a big game of chess did grandpa play at that time. Even my return to Shoushantun has been planned.
"Of course, this Five Elements Stone also has the biggest role. You have to remember that this is what your grandfather arranged for you to come back here. It is also the only way to solve the trouble of guarding the mountain. ”
"Oh? What is that? ”
I listened quietly, but I saw that Wang Po looked stunned, and her hand shook, and the crutch in her hand came out of her hand and flew straight out of the window.
It may have also been improvised, with no glass on the windows, but made of paper. It had fallen into disrepair, and the window paper had become a mess. The crutch flew out and pierced directly through the window paper, as if it had hit something outside.
At the same time, Wang Po's footsteps were fast, and she quickly rushed out of the door. I was left in the room in a daze.
This old woman watched the wind blow and was about to fall, but she didn't expect her skills to be so good.
I reacted and rushed out of the house.
I saw that Wang Po had already picked up the crutch, and looked into the distance, a person was limping away.
"Grandma Wang, who is it?"
Wang Po shook her head: "I didn't see it clearly." See? These people also have their own hearts and minds. ”
With that, Wang Po took me back to Yizhuang and continued: "After these five element stones are gathered, they can become the key to open a stone door. You can see your grandfather inside the stone gate......"
“
What the? Can I meet my grandfather? My grandpa isn't already ......."
"It's your grandfather's soul. Your grandfather is now incomplete in soul and cannot be reincarnated. Most of his soul was now inside the stone gate, and he needed his relatives to guide the soul out of the stone gate. When the time comes, after you use the soul banner to lure your grandfather to Shoushantun, he can let his soul and the soul in the clay statue converge, and then he can completely solve the trouble of Shoushantun. Also, the sun lamp you extinguished...... It should also be in that stone gate. ”
"Huh?" I was quite surprised to hear this. This is the first time I've heard anyone mention my natal lamp since I came here. This princess seems to know everything, but how does she know these things?
