Hu Qichen put his arms around me and forced me to sleep for a while, and only woke me up at about half past nine, washed up indiscriminately, and then he took me away.

Yesterday it was the ghost pet who took us left and right, which made me dizzy, and today Hu Qichen took me directly to the past, I always feel that the surrounding scene is not very different from yesterday.

I waited until I reached the dirt slope, and when I climbed up and looked down, I was stunned.

The village at the bottom of the hill was a cemetery, and not far from the cemetery, there was a small stream, and on the opposite side of the stream was a high dirt slope, and we could not see the situation on the other side of the slope from our position.

"Were we wandering around in a graveyard last night?" I feel a little confused now.

Hu Qichen also frowned: "To be exact, this is not just a cemetery, but also a formation, otherwise I would not have been able to sense the danger last night, and I would not have been able to tell whether the scene we saw was true or false." ”

"So what now?" Things seem to be a lot trickier than we think.

"Do you remember those ten strong men last night?" Hu Qichen asked me.

I nodded: "They should have been fascinated as well, and then left, heading towards the small stream." ”

Hu Qichen nodded: "Let's go, let's not rush into the formation first, first detour to the opposite side of the small stream, and find the ten men." ”

Of course, I had no objection, so I let Hu Qichen take me on a long detour, jumped over a small stream, climbed the dirt slope opposite, and looked down from the dirt slope, but found that there were several villages thousands of kilometers away, and the atmosphere of life was very strong.

This should be another ethnic group other than our Wu family group, and I don't know if there is any communication between our two ethnic groups.

After Hu Qichen and I entered the village, we picked a commissary in the village, bought something, and then chatted with the proprietress of the commissary, intentionally or unintentionally, I led the topic to the cemetery over there, the proprietress was in her fifties, with a thin face, her lips were thin into a line, and she was gossiping with us while snorting melon seeds. ”

"yes." I lied, we made a detour, but by looking at the look on the face of the proprietress I knew that this graveyard had a story.

The proprietress waved her hand: "You girl, you are not very old, and your face is not red when you brag, not to mention that you two are young, even the Changjin in our village does not dare to run over there in the daytime." ”

"Who is Changjin?" I hurriedly asked.

"Changjin is an old widower in our village, his life is very hard, his ancestor is a rich man, when he was young, he had a little money in his hand, and he married three beautiful girls like flowers and jade a month, but none of them survived the wedding night, they were all killed by him, and then no one dared to marry his daughter to him. The proprietress shook her head as she spoke, sighing.

"If his life is so hard, why doesn't he dare to go near that cemetery? What's inside the graveyard? I asked.

"A group of widows." The proprietress pursed her lips, "In the early years, not far from our village, there was a big archway, the archway was densely engraved with the names of many women, these women were young and dead husbands, seriously ill and happy, fighting outside, going to the sea and not returning, that era was really cruel to women, survived a lifetime, died, and could not enter the ancestral grave of the husband's family, the unity was buried in the widow's ditch, there was no accident, nine years when there was a flood, the water in the small stream rose, It is said that a coffin floated from inside, and since then, the widow's ditch has had frequent accidents, and over time, that area has become a forbidden place, and no one dares to go again. ”

"But when we came over there, we seemed to see a new grave buried inside, and if no one went, where did this new grave come from?" That's the truth, I was standing on the dirt slope before, and I did see the new grave.

The proprietress suddenly turned pale: "Girl, do you see clearly?" Is there a new grave? ”

"Yes, I saw it with my own eyes." I was sure.

"It's broken, it's broken." The proprietress took out her mobile phone as she spoke, and hurriedly dialed a call, which was quickly picked up over there, and she heard the proprietress crackle and say, "Da Zhuang, have you received Xiaoya?" In the past few days, you have taken Xiaoya to live in the county, don't come back, the old coffin is restless again, uh-huh, I'll clean up and go over. ”

Putting down the phone, the proprietress said: "Little girl, listen to your accent is from out of town, I advise you to leave here quickly, the old coffin is restless, this unlucky little girl is going to suffer again, every time you don't die seven will not be at peace, I have to close the door and go to the county seat to accompany my daughter." ”

She had already given the order to evict the guests, so we had to leave, and when we left, I asked her where Changjin's house was, and she pointed to a bluestone house at the back of the village, saying that it was Changjin's house.

Hu Qichen and I went over, the door of Changjin's house was closed, he reached out and knocked, no one answered, he could hear the thunderous snoring inside the door, this Changjin actually slept at home in the daytime, and he could really sleep.

Hu Qichen opened the door with a little internal force, without making a big movement, when he entered, there was a smell of sour rot, there was only one house, and the bed was placed against the wall on the left hand side, and a man with five big and three thick was lying in a large shape, with a black head and a black face.

At the head of the bed was a chest of drawers, on which was a color TV, an old-fashioned color TV with a big butt, with a head full of dust and cobwebs stuck to the back.

There was a pile of things piled up next to the TV, and a suona that was polished to a bright light stood there, seeing this suona, I suddenly remembered the two suona blowers who sent the sedan chair last night, is this Changjin uncle one of them?

Hu Qichen blew a breath towards the sleeping Chang Jin, Chang Jin sat up from the bed with a hula, staring at the front with dull eyes, Hu Qichen asked him: "Chang Jin, what did you do last night?" ”

Changjin sat stunned, his lips opened, and he shook his head, looking very dazed.

I picked up the suona and shook it in front of Changjin's eyes: "Where did you go with the suona last night?" ”

Changjin took the suona and blew it, the two cheeks bulged one by one, probably because of the perennial blowing of this thing, his cheeks were very thin, and he used his air like a small balloon that was blown up.

The tune he played was the joy we heard last night.

Changjin blew over and over again, as if he never knew how to stop, until Hu Qichen blew at him again, and he fell on the bed with a bang, and then the snoring started again.

I looked at Hu Qichen: "He doesn't seem to remember anything else except blowing this joy." ”

"If I'm not mistaken, the ten men from last night were scattered in several surrounding villages, and all of them were singles, the kind of strong-blooded ones, and they were controlled by the corpse refiners for various reasons, and the corpse refiners used them to complete some rituals, and sacrificed the young woman to the contents of the old coffin, so as to support the old coffin." Hu Qichen analyzed.

"What's inside the coffin?" My heart is trembling, this corpse refiner is simply crazy.

"It should be a corpse, this is a means for him to refine the corpse, in this way, Qian Mengmeng is likely to be dedicated to the old coffin." Hu Qichen said, looking at me uncomfortably.

I immediately became excited: "Will Qian Mengmeng ......?"

"No one can say for sure." Hu Qichen pulled me out, and glanced at the sun as he walked, "It's the middle of the day, let's go and meet the old coffin." ”

Although I am a little embarrassed about the cemetery, but for the sake of Qian Mengmeng, I must break through, fortunately I didn't let Hu Qichen go back to Jiangcheng before, otherwise I would really panic at this time.

We climbed over the dirt slope and crossed the small stream, and suddenly felt a cold air rushing towards our faces.

When I got closer, I could see that the two rows of graves were arranged from west to east, and the further east the graves were, the newer they were, and the tombs on the west side all had tombstones, although they were old, they could still be vaguely distinguished, and the tombs on the east side had nothing, just a mound of earth.

And at the end of these two rows of graves, in the westernmost part, a few hundred meters from the tombs, there is a low stone house, which, judging from the appearance, is in the shape of a coffin.

There were blood stains around the stone house, and I thought of the woman's screams last night, and turned to look at the latest grave.

Hu Qichen grabbed me: "What are you doing, be careful." ”

I took a look at the desolate surroundings, the graves full of graves, and the bloodstained stone shacks, and slowly calmed down.

Everything seems so quiet, but everywhere is full of crises, who knows if something will jump out in the next moment? Maybe the corpse refiner is staring at us somewhere!

"Eleven today, huh?" Hu Qichen asked me.

"Twelve, what are you doing here?" I was puzzled.

Hu Qichen nodded: "I understand, let's go back first." ”

After he finished speaking, he pulled me to leave, and I asked him what he was going to do.

"Have you forgotten what the commissary lady said? She said that after a while, the girls around the village would disappear for no reason, and after that, there would be new graves in the widow's ditch, how did these girls die? Hu Qichen asked me rhetorically.

"He died in some kind of ritual to suppress the old coffin, but in the final analysis, it should be the one who was arrested by the corpse refiner, isn't it?" It's easy to think of that.

"To be exact, these girls were killed by the corpse refiner in order to break the seal of the old coffin, and if I guess correctly, the contents of the old coffin will break through the seal on a full moon night and become the killing tool of the corpse refiner." Hu Qichen analyzed, "The so-called ritual is a kind of sacrifice, and the woman who can be qualified to be buried in the widow's ditch must be a widow's life, but where are so many widow girls in this world?" ”

"The proprietress said that every time a new grave appears in the widow's ditch, seven girls will die in a row, and even if it is sacrificed once a year, it is necessary to find the girls who have seven widows' lives, how easy is this?" Besides, if it is really seven at a time, the graves in this patch should be in patches, and the number is not right.

"Therefore, the girls who are used for sacrifice are not widows, they may just have a more yin life, and only the girl who is sacrificed on the night of the full moon is a widow's life girl." Hu Qichen finally came to a conclusion, "So, Qian Mengmeng is definitely not dead." ”

I was immediately excited, but then I shook my head: "It doesn't make sense, since the full moon will only be moved, how can the new tomb in the easternmost part be explained?" "If a man does not die, he will first build a grave?

"So......" Hu Qichen dragged me past me and went straight to the new grave, "Maybe Qian Mengmeng is really in the grave." ”

"Then what are you waiting for, digging graves!" I squatted down as I spoke, stretched out my hand and wanted to dig the soil, Hu Qichen stopped me again, "Don't be impulsive, think about it, if Qian Mengmeng is really buried in advance, why?" It must be because she needs to be treated before the sacrifice, and this tomb will not be the same as a normal tomb, so we have to be careful. ”

He paused, glanced around, and continued: "Look at it, there is soil and water here, and there is fertile land in front and back, why is there no grass growing here? ”

He didn't say that I hadn't noticed it yet, there was really no greenery here, and the solar calendar was only the end of October, so it can be seen how heavy the evil spirit is here.

"What to do? Hu Qichen, what are we going to do? ”

"Cast a long line to catch big fish."

Hu Qichen's words broke me, I grabbed his collar and shook my head: "No, I can't wait for a day, Hu Qichen, think about it, the longer our line is, the more girls will die, can you bear it?" ”

"I've lived for thousands of years, and these births, old ages, sickness and death have long been looked down upon, for me, as long as I can catch the corpse refiner, it's still worth sacrificing a few girls." Hu Qichen calmly analyzed, "If we shoot blindly, once he escapes, where will he get such a battle next time, we can't find it, then more people will die, which is more important, I have a rod and scale in my heart." ”

"But......" I hesitated, "do you really not dig graves?" How long do you have to wait? ”

Hu Qichen took me away, and said as he walked: "Don't panic, let's come back at night, even if I can think of a way to rescue Qian Mengmeng now, but I can't catch the corpse refiner without this erbium, since I have thought it through, then catch it all, now go back and deploy some manpower, and then take your grandmother at night, she understands the formation, and when the time comes, I will break the formation with one hand to save Qian Mengmeng, and arrest the corpse refiner with the other, and after we are done, we will just go back to Jiangcheng." ”

……

When I got home and had lunch, my uncle's family also came to the table rarely, and he didn't say a few words at the dinner table, but obviously he listened to my words and stopped making a fuss.

After eating, Hu Qichen and his grandmother locked up in the room and chatted for a long time, Xu Fu was not there, this huge Wu family, I could only go to the eldest brother.

The power of the Wu family is in the hands of the eldest uncle, Wu Jinyan can mobilize a limited number of people, Xinyue listened to us talk on the side, and then ran out, and after a while, he said that the second aunt would send some people to help me.

Although the second uncle has little say in the Wu family, he is the Wu family after all, and it just so happens that the eldest uncle has been sick for so long, and he has the most status in the clan.

We kept this matter from my uncle the whole time, and I had a grudge against him, and I didn't think he would really help me.

When I was done with all this, my grandmother called me to the room, took my hand and said, "Pengpeng, why don't you tell grandma about such a big thing?" ”

"I'm not afraid you're in a hurry." I was a little at a loss, "After all, it's about cuteness." ”

"Mengmeng, this child's life is a catastrophe, grandma can see through it, but according to the description of the fox fairy, it is the right choice for you not to touch that grave today." Grandma said, "I don't know who is lying in the old coffin, but since you want to marry, it must be a man, and a man can exist in the widow's ditch, do you think this thing is powerful?" ”

"He's being suppressed over there." I added.

"Yes, because his evil spirit is too heavy, if he doesn't suppress it, our piece will not exist for a long time, this thing is turned up from the small stream, it should have been suppressed under the small stream a long, long time ago, it was washed up by the flood, and it was buried in the widow's ditch, I wanted to use the widow's ditch woman's evil qi to balance his evil qi, but I didn't expect that how many years later, it would be used again, if Qian Mengmeng was sacrificed alive to this thing, his seal was unlocked, then we will definitely usher in a killing that we can't deal with."

"So what should we do tonight?" This is the most critical.

"I have an old bone, the sequelae left by the last injury, I can't go to that kind of yin place, but you listen to me, the formation of the new tomb should be done for the purpose of gathering evil, you must prepare cinnabar, black dog blood, boy urine, colorful rooster blood and pure yang men's tongue blood, the first four are in the southeast and northwest of the tomb to dig a three-inch deep pit and bury it, light the incense, which side of the incense burns the fastest, just splash the fifth one on that direction, and then start digging from that direction with a shovel, the action must be fast, People must be dug out within a stick of incense, and the people who are dug out should not be touched directly with their hands, but wrapped directly in a red cloth soaked in black dog blood, and sent back as soon as possible, and I will be ready at home to help remove the evil. ”

After my grandmother finished speaking in one breath, I repeated it again in my own mind, and I nodded after making sure I remembered everything: "I will be ready for everything." ”

"Man must be rescued before twelve o'clock in the night, except for these," Grandma said, and took out a hexagonal copper bell from her bosom, which is not big, I have also seen this kind of hexagonal copper bell over there, but hers is twice as big as Grandma's, and she handed me the copper bell, "This hexagonal copper bell is a token of love given to me by your grandfather when I was in the prime of my cardamom years, and he already had a team of cronies in his hands, and the whole team is only twelve people, all of whom are masters of a top ten, and now I don't know if it still exists, Anyway, if you take it, maybe it will come in handy at a critical moment. ”

Cardamom years?

More than 60 years have passed since this statement, so it is estimated that these twelve people are all old and have long been disbanded, right?

But I still accepted it, after all, this is equivalent to a talisman given to me by my grandmother, even if it doesn't work, she is at ease when I carry it with me.

After that, my grandmother asked me to go to the shrine maiden and ask the shrine maiden to give me some advice.

When I went, the witch was saying something to the new moon, and when she saw me coming, she beckoned to me: "Peng Peng, you came just in time, you persuade the new moon for me, this girl is really becoming more and more disobedient." ”

"What's wrong?" I asked.

Xinyue immediately puffed up her mouth: "You all have something to do tonight, I will definitely follow to help, this old witch won't let me follow, I hate it." ”

My head is full of black lines, and this girl's mouth is really spoiled: "Xinyue, don't be so big and small, apologize to the witch." ”

"Humph!" Crescent Moon sulked at us with her hands on her chest and back.

The witch waved her hand to show that it was okay: "As a witch, what you want is this arrogance that does not bow to anyone, I like this girl's temper, but anyway, the evil spirit of the place I went to tonight is too heavy, and it will hinder her soul very much, and if one accidentally leaves her soul, it will be difficult to lose her soul." ”

"Did you hear Crescent, don't say that the witch won't let you go, even I won't allow you to follow." I also said.

The new moon immediately looked like a little lion with a fried hair: "Don't they all say that I can go up to the world and enter the underworld with my spiritual wisdom, is the evil aura of the underworld not as good as that small cemetery?" ”

"Your spiritual wisdom is open, but you haven't been able to control your soul well, and you haven't done a thing to accumulate merit, so you're still very weak, understand?" The shrine maiden said bitterly.

Xinyue's momentum weakened a little: "You all went, will you leave me alone to sleep in the Wu family?" ”

"Who said we all went? Grandma stayed at Wu's house tonight, you just happened to help her do things, don't talk about sleeping this night, just don't be sent to be tired when the time comes. I laughed.

"Really? Second grandma really doesn't go? Cousin, don't lie to me. "The crescent moon immediately came to spirit.

"What did I lie to you." Reaching out and touching her head, "If you don't believe me, why don't you go to grandma now and ask if you can't?" ”

Crescent Moon immediately went home.

After she left, the witch said to me, "Pengpeng, I heard that you have a thousand-year-old sycamore essence by your side, and you get along very well?" ”

I nodded: "I just got it recently." ”

The witch nodded, turned around and went to the room for a while, and when she came out, she handed me a square box, the box was very old, the size of a palm, and when it was opened, there was a Five Emperor Coin lying inside, this Five Emperor Coin was the largest and thickest one I have ever seen, and there was a blood-red gem inlaid in the square hole.

The shrine maiden took it out and recited a spell, and I only heard a click, and the Five Emperors coin suddenly stretched out, and it turned into a copper coin sword.

"This copper coin sword followed your grandfather to the north and south for decades, killing I don't know how many ghosts and zombies, this copper coin sword originally raised a ghost slave, and then in an ancient tomb, the ghost slave died up in order to save your grandfather, and since then, he has never used this copper coin sword again." When the witch said this, she couldn't help but sigh, "I thought that if your sycamore spirit is willing, maybe he can take the place of the ghost slave back then, and be loyal to you from now on." ”
