Chapter 158: Soul Attraction Pool (Part II)
Chu Tianlu found that the fat boy was pulling something out of the jar in an incredible motion, and the others were not squatting, but leaning against the jar and reaching in. Instead, he put the person straight on the jar in a forty-five-degree posture, giving Chu Tianlu the feeling as if the joints of his whole body were stuck and he couldn't move!!
Chu Tianlu felt strange in his heart, with his posture, that jar hadn't fallen yet!! And with the position he was in, he could still put his hand into the jar, Chu Tianlu always felt that something was wrong.
There was silence all around, as if a needle could be heard falling on the ground, Chu Tianlu's head broke out with a bean-sized cold sweat and dripping across his cheeks, time walked slowly, he stared straight at the fat boy, and his heart was like kicking a rabbit jumping up and down.
At this time, everything seemed to be floating in the air - there was only Chu Tianlu left in this world, and he had been maintaining this stalemate.
Until the fat boy took out something from the jar and walked over to Chu Tianlu with it held high.
Chu Tianlu was very scared at this time, and he didn't care what the fat boy was holding in his hand, and shouted at him: "Let's go home!" I'm scared ......."
"Go home...... Go home...... I'm home. I'll give you toys, can you play with me? The fat boy still had a smile on his face, but he couldn't hear a trace of emotional fluctuations from the tone of his voice, which made Chu Tianlu feel inexplicably cold, and his feet involuntarily took a few steps back.
"You don't play with me either? Are you afraid of me? Suddenly, the fat boy threw the things in his hand at Chu Tianlu, and his own person turned around, looking at it from the back, it seemed that he was sobbing. Chu Tianlu glanced at the toy he threw on the ground, and it turned out to be a worn-out doll.
Chu Tianlu saw that the fat boy's appearance was very pitiful, so he stopped, hesitated for a moment and stepped forward to take him by the hand and lead him home.
But when he got behind the fat boy, he found that the sleeve on his arm was actually torn, revealing the sallow complexion on his arm. Chu Tianlu felt that the fat boy's arm seemed to be very swollen, which made him feel uncomfortable, and he thought about picking up the doll on the ground and giving it to him, so that he would not be sad anymore.
At this time, there was a whirlwind suddenly very strange in those jars, and it kept wandering around the jars that the fat boy had just dug up.
"Take me away, they're coming!!" There was fear in the fat boy's voice.
Chu Tianlu didn't say a word, he raised his hand and was about to pull the fat boy's hand and wanted to take him out of here quickly. At the same time, the fat boy also just turned around and got up, staring at Chu Tianlu with a pair of eyes without pupils.
Chu Tianlu was so frightened that he even forgot to shout! Hurry up and run away! He didn't dare to look behind him along the way, always feeling that there was a wind behind him.
After running for a while, he saw that several medicine farmers in the village had just come down from the mountain after collecting medicine, so he shouted loudly.
When the medicine farmer heard the voice and came to check, Chu Tianlu had already passed out. Because the village is not big, everyone knows whose child it is, so they sent him to his grandmother's house.
Chu Tianlu didn't know how long he had been asleep, he only knew that the fat boy had been by his side all this time, yelling at him to play with him.
The haggard grandmother looked at Chu Tianlu, who had been lying on the bed for three days, with a sad face, and her heart was very anxious. At this time, Chu Tianlu woke up, and the happy old man didn't know what to say for a while, so he hurriedly turned around and went out to fetch the chicken soup that had already been boiled for him.
Grandma came back with chicken soup, and before she could speak, Chu Tianlu asked, "Grandma, where is the fat boy?" Isn't he always there? Why don't you see anyone now? Before Chu Tianlu's words fell, he heard the sound of "bang", and the soup bowl in her grandmother's hand hit the ground at once, shattered, and her face turned white all of a sudden. Without saying a word, he turned around and walked out of the door to invite someone from the village who would know what to do.
Under the soft and hard application of his grandmother, he still drank the fragrant ash water that the man had given. The next day, grandma sent Chu Tianlu back to Nanjing.
Later, he learned that the fat boy fell to his death a few days after Chu Tianlu arrived in the village, and the fat boy he saw was his soul. If he hadn't run fast that day and happened to meet a few men collecting medicine, he would have been hooked by the fat boy at this moment.
The place where the fat boy took him that day is called the Soul Pool. The jars were for the bones of people who had died in vain.
On their side, there is a custom that as long as a person dies in vain, he cannot be buried in the earth for three years. It is said that the people who died in vain have not yet reached their yang life, and their attachment to the yang world is unresolved, and if they enter the earth early, they will have resentment and form a ghost to harm the township.
Only after letting their souls wander in the Yang World for a while, when they realize that they are dead, will they feel safe to report to the oni mission. And those jars are their dwelling place in the Yang World.
This matter has been hidden in Chu Tianlu's heart for more than twenty years, and when he saw those jars, his first reaction was to think of those jars in the soul attraction pool back then, which also caused fear in his heart.
The loach was inexplicably dragged by Chu Tianlu to Qiu Yu's side, and said with an innocent face: "I didn't move anything this time, don't blame me!" "Because after the loach kicked the door, he was dragged behind by Chu Tianlu, so just now the loach didn't see what was inside the wooden door at all. Just looking at the fire that seemed to be about to go out, he thought that Chu Tianlu blamed him for playing tricks on him. So I quickly explained.
"Let's go! I have a strong sense of uneasiness!! The things in the door are very evil. After saying that, Chu Tianlu extinguished the fire and led the way to the passage.
The loach stuck out his tongue, made a grimace and said behind Chu Tianlu: "Master, I have lost to you, you have successfully scared me." Tell me what's inside!! Look at your nervous look!! ”
Qiu Yu wanted to ask, but Loach asked, and she just echoed: "Yes!" What's inside? I didn't go in when I saw you!! Why did you give up so quickly? Maybe there's some clue in there? ”
"There will definitely be no clues in it, hurry up and I'll explain it to you later." Chu Tianlu knew that if he said it now, he wouldn't be able to explain it clearly for a while. It's not unusual to take advantage of now, and it's best to get out of here as soon as possible.
The three of them couldn't help but speed up their feet, and during this period, Chu Tianlu didn't notice that the secret mark left by the second uncle appeared on the wall again. It's like the one just now, and there are a lot of corpses on the left and right sides. Who could have imagined that innocent lives were lost here?
The dim light illuminated the path in an unusually trance, and there was no sound except for the slight sound of the three men walking.
At this time, Chu Tianlu's spirit was still concentrated on the stone walls on both sides, for fear of missing the mark left by the second uncle.
Suddenly, Chu Tianlu heard a soft call: "Dabao, Dabao...... You come here. ”
