Chapter 43: The Situation in Nanshan
Those ships were supposed to be warships, and they had been drawn to assist in the construction of the tomb.
After the tomb was built, they told the workers that they could take a boat home, but in fact they were secretly executed at sea. Generally, the construction of such a hidden tomb is absolutely not allowed to be known by others, not to mention that there are still so many people!! Only the dead can truly keep secrets.
It is not surprising that this has happened repeatedly in history.
If it was as I guessed, the man who built the tomb was really a little more terrifying than the demon, but I can imagine that his power at that time must have been surprisingly great. ”
After listening to Yang Lao's scrutiny, Chu Tianlu sighed in his heart, and secretly thought: Fortunately, I didn't live in that era, otherwise, this life would not be worth much, and I might lose my life if I walked the aisle.
The people of that era were actually appendages of powerful people, although there were also royal laws that constrained people, but could those royal laws really protect the people living at the bottom? It turns out that those royal methods are just for those low-level ants who can't resist. Powerful people still do things willfully.
The loach also listened attentively, obviously he also had doubts, and suddenly said: "I also know some of what you said, I used to follow them to steal... Down to the grave. ”
Speaking of this, the loach suddenly changed his words, it should be that he was afraid of Yang Lao's presence. But after changing my words, I felt even more unnatural.
"I have always heard that this kind of thing happens, but most of them are killed on the spot, or they are sealed alive in the tomb, why should this tomb owner bother to send people to the sea and kill them again?"
Loach also asked other people's questions, but Yang Lao obviously couldn't answer this question.
Yang Lao squinted his eyes, shook his head and said with a wry smile: "I have to ask the person concerned about this." When Elder Yang said this, out of the corner of his eye, Chu Tianlu saw the dumb turtle suddenly get up and walk out of the room. He faintly noticed that the mute turtle's face seemed to have changed, and it became even paler than usual!!
Just when Chu Tianlu felt strange in his heart, Old Man Zhao entered the house and beckoned everyone to prepare for dinner.
Old man Zhao has good skills, everyone eats very fragrant, especially the plate of braised chicken, which is swept away by three times and five divided by two, those foreigners seem to be addicted to eating, and they can't stop pointing to the plate!!
Old man Zhao looked at the dishes that were robbed on the table and only left the bottom of the bowl, and said with some embarrassment: "That's all at home, I'm really sorry, if you don't have enough, I'll go to his second aunt's house to borrow a chicken!" ”
When Old Man Zhao said this, everyone was embarrassed, except for those foreigners, of course. Uncle Zhao hasn't eaten it yet!!
Chu Tianlu thought to himself, give him some money when he leaves, this old man has a really good heart.
Everyone chatted while eating, and they talked about Nanshan.
When Old Man Zhao heard that they were going to Nanshan tomorrow, he shook his hand like a rattle, and said again and again: "I can't go!" It's haunted there. ”
Chu Tianlu was also curious, he just heard Lianzi say that it was haunted, so he didn't ask, and at this time he just asked Uncle Zhao, he took two bites of chopsticks and vegetables, and asked, "Uncle, is there really a ghost there?" ”
"Anyway, that's what they say, and no one has ever seen a ghost or not." The old man was obviously very taboo about Nanshan, and he didn't want to say more after speaking, so he only put food in his mouth. It's like talking about what kind of disaster Nanshan will bring him!!
Yang Lao put down the rice bowl at this time, reached into his pocket and wanted to take out a handkerchief to wipe his mouth, turned it over twice and didn't take it, so he wiped his mouth with his hand, and said lightly: "This kind of haunted legend, most of them will only exist in some places where traffic is blocked and people are inaccessible.
There will be many places in these places that humans have never set foot in. Locals are afraid of the unknown, so they make up some rumors of haunting. There are such legends in many parts of our country, and after they say these things, others have no way to verify them.
In my opinion, it's like Nanshan, many people want to go, but they are scared, so they make it up to be haunted, there is a monster saying!! It's just self-comforting. After speaking, he looked at Old Man Zhao with a smile.
Uncle Zhao stopped after hearing this, his wrinkled face turned red, and he swallowed the food in his mouth like a jujube and said to Yang Lao: "You old man, look at you Sven, how can you talk in a roundabout way?" You call me a liar, right? ”
"Just two years ago, it rained continuously on our side, causing the crops to fail, and we were all starving to death.
Later, I don't know who spread the word that there were rare medicinal materials in Nanshan, so a group of people from the neighboring village were organized to go to Zele. Who knew that when they arrived on the mountain, everyone was inexplicably separated.
A few people who didn't go deep into the mountain picked some wild fruits and vegetables at random on the periphery and came back, and those who went into the mountain didn't come back.
Later, the people in the village organized people to go up the mountain to look for it, and they found one, but it was dead!! And it's a very weird way to die. His body was covered in a white web, like a spider's web, and the most bizarre thing was that he died with a smile on his face. After Old Man Zhao finished saying this, he didn't forget to add a sentence: "If you don't believe it, you can go and inquire to see if my surname Zhao is a liar!!"
Chu Tianlu couldn't help but laugh in his heart when he looked at this simple old man, thinking to himself, it was so easy to fall into Yang Lao's trap.
At this moment, Chu Tianlu also had a new understanding of Yang Lao, and felt that there was a reason why he could be in a high position at such a young age, and he said everything about the people he didn't want to say in just a few simple words, which shows that success is not accidental.
After everyone finished eating, cleaned up, and went to bed. When I arrived in the room, I found that the bed in Uncle Zhao's house was not enough at all.
Qiu Yu naturally lived in a single room, and those foreigners also occupied the bed in the room early.
Leaving Yang Lao and Chu Tianlu and the other four people to sleep on the floor.
Fortunately, Old Man Zhao's house had a lot of quilts and thick spreads, so they didn't feel panicked.
Chu Tianlu, who was lying down, couldn't sleep for a while, and chatted with the loaches and dumb turtles without a match. As for the loach, it may be that he was tired in the past two days, and after he fell down, he chatted with Chu Tianlu indiscriminately and fell asleep.
Chu Tianlu remembered the incident when the dumb turtle suddenly walked out of the room just now, and he knew that the dumb turtle would not easily move the person in his position, unless there was something.
Chu Tianlu asked the dumb turtle with the mentality of trying it out, and to his surprise, the dumb turtle turned over and didn't want to deal with him at all.
Chu Tianlu scolded his mother in his heart, knowing that there would be such a result, why did he ask.
Just when Chu Tianlu couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning, Yang Lao's voice came: "Xiao Chu, can't you sleep?" ”
