Bagua diagrams are actually very common in urban layout, and urban planning and garden design will involve the principle of this feng shui layout.

Futang Village, Zhangzhou City, Fujian Province, is an ancient village covering an area of 3.6 square kilometers, an "S" shaped stream divides the village into two from east to west, and it is a Taiji Bagua map overlooking from a high place, so it is also called Bagua Village.

It is rumored that in history, Futang Village was flooded, and during the Kangxi period, Zhu Xi's 18th generation descendant Zhu Yibo settled here to avoid war. Zhu Yibo rerouted the straight stream in the village to an S-shaped Quxi.

Quxi not only slows down the speed of the stream's discharge, but also increases the volume of the stream, avoiding flooding caused by flash floods. Since then, Futang Village has been free from drought and flood, and it was once the most prosperous village in southwest Fujian during the Kangqian period of the Qing Dynasty.

Zhu Yibo instructed his descendants to build tulou, study hall, ancestral hall and residential houses according to his layout, and plant trees on both sides of the creek that runs through the village, which is a centennial plan in modern terms.

Therefore, the Tai Chi style village layout, to a certain extent, not only inherits the theory of Feng Shui, but also reduces natural disasters.

It's just that at this time, the river channel I am in front of me does not look like a man-made modification, but more like a natural formation.

My sense of smell was not as good as that of Tuso, and I certainly didn't smell the blood he said.

It's just that after he reminded me, looking at the grass and trees under my feet, I felt that it revealed an unusual atmosphere.

I was standing at the entrance of the cave, and a family came out with a basket of earth not far away, and greeted me very warmly.

From the time we came to this village to the present, everyone we saw along the way was full of smiles, and the eldest sister who sheltered us was also very simple. I thought to myself, maybe Tuso was too sensitive to smell and a little too worried.

By seven o'clock in the evening, it was completely dark.

There is no nightlife in the village, and every household has turned off the lights early, leaving only a few households in twos and threes.

Teng Chongchong had already subsided his fever at this time, and after drinking a few bowls of brown sugar water, his face was also bloody.

I told her that tomorrow morning there would be a car from the village to collect the mountain goods, and that she would be transferred to the city hospital for a check-up.

Teng Chongchong nodded, looked around and asked me, "What about Yu Nian?" I don't know if the Ninefold Treasure Letter has been opened. ”

Only then did I realize that it seemed that I hadn't seen Yu Nian's figure since dinner.

I was a little uncertain in my heart, for fear that she would not say goodbye this time like she did at the beginning, so I turned around and went out to look for it.

I took my flashlight and walked around the base of the mountain. When I walked to the side of the mountain, I found that there seemed to be four cement boxes covered with oiled paper on the ground.

The boxes were about a meter high and covered with thick stone slabs.

I hadn't paid attention, but as I passed by, a gust of wind blew and the unpleasant smell of blood got into my nose.

I turned to look at the four boxes and leaned over to smell them. Sure enough, the smell of blood came from here.

Curious, I put the flashlight in my mouth and reached for the slate on the cement box.

But I found that this slate must weigh more than 100 catties, not to mention it, and it is not something I can lift with two hands at all.

I thought about it, and I happened to find a steel bar on the ground, and I pried one end of the steel bar into the stone slab, and pressed it with both hands.

"Brother, what are you doing?"

Before I could pry the slate open, a child suddenly appeared behind me, and I was so frightened that I hurriedly turned around.

I found out that it was the youngest son of the eldest sister who took us in, and he was looking at me with an ice cream stick hanging from his mouth.

I hid the steel bar behind me and explained, "My brother came out to go to the bathroom, and he was curious about what was inside, so he wanted to open it and take a look." ”

The child nodded and said to me, "It's all food, grandma uses ice, and you can only eat it during the New Year's holidays." ”

Food?

I sniffed the inside of the box again, and it didn't smell like something to eat.

"What's in here, you know?"

"It's meat, it's all raw meat. There are also some that my grandmother fished out of the river, and the family couldn't eat much, so they were put here. ”

I breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in realization.

It turned out to be raw pork and fish, so it's no wonder it smelled fishy.

Presumably, there is ice in this cement box, which can be refrigerated for a few days. I kindly reminded, "Tell your grandma, the meat should be kept in the refrigerator, and it will easily rot if you put it here." ”

He spit out the ice cream stick in his mouth and nodded as if he didn't understand.

I walked around the village, but I didn't see Yu Nian.

By the time I reached the small mound behind the mountain, I had already begun to acquiesce in my heart that she might have left with the Ninefold Treasure Letter.

I returned in vain, but I stumbled upon the other party's garbage in the village.

Most of the domestic garbage here is vegetable washing water and kitchen waste, which are spread in places with more sunshine during the day in order to facilitate decomposition.

The soil on the ground next to it has been refurbished, and it is clear that some of the food waste has been buried in the ground.

But in the midst of the leftovers, I seemed to see something white.

I picked up a twig and pulled it out of the rubbish heap, only to find that it was a row of teeth.

There are five or six teeth embedded in the gums.

I thought it was a denture, but the musculature attached to the gums can be seen, and this is the real tooth that grows in the human mouth.

Where did these six straight teeth come from? Was it a broken skull, a broken jaw, or some other more brutal cause?

Everyone in the village seemed to be in a harmonious mood, not like anyone would do such a thing.

But just then, another piece of white caught my eye.

When I looked closely, it turned out to be a human bone.

It is not difficult to tell that this human bone is a bone in the lower leg of a person. There was no scrap of meat left on the white bones, as if they had been licked clean by something.

I am familiar with human bones, and although they all look the same, they are actually very different from the bones of human beings, which cannot be compared to animal bones.

Could it be that after killing someone, which family split the body and left only this one bone?

I was thinking about it when I suddenly realized something was wrong.

If it was a murderous dismemberment, then why weren't the bones buried, but put together with the after-dinner kitchen waste?

I thought again of the strange cement box just now, and hurriedly ran back to the bottom of the mountain.

Picked up the steel bars on the ground and pried one end under the stone slab.

I used all my strength to pry the steel bars alive, and the stone slab was lifted to the ground with a thud.

A strong smell of blood came to my face, and countless flies poured out of it.

After the flies had cleared, I pinched my nose and took a look.

But this glance is something I will never forget.

Under the chest was a thick layer of ice, on top of which were pieces of rotten flesh.

Some are fresh, and a color is red. Some have turned dark purple and look like they have rotted for a long time. And the most numbing thing about my scalp is that there are still two severed arms inside, and there are neatly cut human ears scattered everywhere.

Almost instantly, I realized that what was in it was not fish or raw pork that had been caught, but the corpses of the people who had been dismembered.

Just now, the kid was hanging on the ice cream stick and innocently told me that everything was eaten, and it was really chilling to think about it now.

What kind of people are there in this village? Could it be all a bunch of bloodthirsty demons who feed on people?

I didn't dare to think about it anymore, so I hurriedly covered the slate while no one found it in the night.

I went back pretending to have nothing to do, and when I entered the house, I found that none of them were sleeping, only Tuso was lying on his back, sleeping like a dead pig.

Lao Meng saw that I looked flustered, so he asked, "What's wrong?" Whose dog did you get it? ”

I was perfunctory, and I was still thinking about whether to tell everyone about the following incident.

But on second thought, there are too many of us, and if we pack up and leave at this time, the target is too big and easy to startle.

And if this village is really a cannibal village, as I suspected, we will just leave, and it will always be a disaster to stay for the future.

I glanced at the time, and it was about half past nine in the evening, and then I remembered that the girl seemed to meet me at the foot of the mountain at ten o'clock in the evening.

Is this going to start with me?

I thought about it and woke Tuso up. Let him and Liao Kao cheer up and protect the safety of Suihe and Tengchong. Immediately after instructing Lao Meng, he left in a hurry.

When I came to the foot of the mountain, I saw the girl sitting by the gazebo in a suspender nightdress.

When he saw me coming down the mountain, he came to me with a smile and took my hand.

I pretended to be greasy and pinched her, "Sister, it's so late, do you have something to do with me?" ”

She pulled me and said coquettishly, "It's just that I grew up in the mountains since I was a child, and I haven't seen much of the world." I heard that my brother was from a big city, and I worshipped it in my heart. I want to hear my brother talk about what the outside world is like. ”

She said as she squeezed her chest against me. There were a lot of movements in my hands, and the movements under my feet did not stop, pulling me towards the cave at the foot of the mountain.

I turned around and glanced halfway up the mountain, Lao Meng hid half of his body, stretched out his hand and gave me an OK.

"Where are we going?"

"Brother just come with me, what's the matter, I'm afraid that I won't be able to eat you?"

If I had done it, I would have thought it was a joke. But now that I think of the horrible cement box just now, and the human bones in the kitchen scrap on the mountain, I just feel my hair stand upside down and my whole body chills.

She just pulled me all the way into the cave, my heart was pounding, I didn't know if Lao Meng, an unreliable person, could have a tacit understanding with me once.

The inside of the cave is like an ordinary home, and when I walked in, I found that there were all kinds of sofas and coffee tables inside, but the lamp above my head was a little red, and the atmosphere was extremely ambiguous.
