Chapter Eighty-Three: Into the Mountain
As every day, the two paper figurines began to inspect Panjia Village with standard steps, striking a gong every ten steps.
When two paper figures walked past me, I quietly opened the door and followed.
I fell behind the paper figure, always keeping a distance of about twenty meters, holding the incense of the three corpses in my hand, keeping the smoke around me.
followed, but the paper man never noticed until he came to Zhang Liang's house.
I paused here and looked sideways in.
Behind the window next to the door, two pairs of eyes were also looking at me at the same time, it was Zhang Liang and his daughter-in-law Su Ying.
I could feel the emotion, horror, and curiosity conveyed by those two pairs of eyes. There was even a hint of excitement that they could see me.
To be honest, I've always been curious about the state of these villagers, saying that they are human. I don't believe it, and I say they're ghosts, but they don't look like it.
Now I have a guess that they are not humans or ghosts, but they don't know that they are dead. A corpse that survives by an obsession.
I thought about it, estimated the time, walked into Zhang's house, came to the window, and met two pairs of frightened eyes.
"What do you want to do?" Zhang Liang gritted his teeth, pressed his throat, and asked word by word.
Su Ying leaned against him, begging and begging, for the paper man, they were afraid from the bottom of their bones.
"Tell me the truth!" I said in a deep voice.
Zhang Liang was silent for a moment.
I glanced down at my watch, compared the two of them, and said, "There's not much time, you don't say, I don't mind calling those two night watchmen over!" ”
"Master!"
Su Ying hugged Zhang Liang's arm, and there was despair in her eyes.
Zhang Liang looked down at his daughter-in-law, then looked up at me, the tense nerve was finally broken, and he said dejectedly: "Panjia Village landed this step of the field, purely self-inflicted!" ”
Pan Tiedan is the founder of Panjia Village, and when he came here, he was not good at all, let alone to take refuge, but to rob the tomb.
Pan Tiedan didn't know where he knew that there was a big tomb in Qi'er Mountain, so he took his men to Qi'er Mountain, settled here, and began to rob tombs.
In the beginning, some good things were indeed dug up, but there were too few things, and it was completely different from the estimated tomb.
For this reason, Pan Tiedan deliberately asked the master to come over to investigate, and the master told him that what was dug out was the tomb of the tomb keeper.
In ancient times, the people who could be equipped with tomb guards were basically princes, which greatly encouraged Pan Tieqian and allowed him to settle here with peace of mind.
What I didn't expect was that the times changed too fast, warlords, Japanese, puppet Manchukuo, Soviets, and various forces appeared one after another, and later, after liberation and construction, more and more people settled in Panjia Village, Qi'er Mountain, and Pan Tiedan had no chance to rob the tomb at all.
Later, Pan Tiedan and the bandits he brought with him died. Leave the secret to future generations.
Decades passed, and the days in Panjia Village were getting worse and worse, and they set their sights on the big tomb in the mountains again.
Before liberation, no one cared about it, but now it's different, where is the law, what should I do if I rob tombs and break the law?
The method is very simple, the whole village robs the tomb together, and the things obtained are divided equally, so that the news will not be leaked, and every household in Panjia Village is a vested interest.
In this way, it has indeed had an effect, and a lot of good things have been dug up, and it has indeed improved the lives of the villagers.
The interests are moving, this has not dug up the real tomb, and so much money has been distributed, if it is dug up, then it will be necessary?
So the villagers of Panjia Village went crazy, which is one of the reasons why so many people disappeared in Panjia Village at one time.
Under normal circumstances, most young adults should work outside, but in Panjia Village, there are very few people who work outside. They all dug up soil and robbed graves in the village.
Panjia Village robbed the tomb, dug to the back, has been organized, and dug out the experience, a group of 20 people, a total of three groups. Working three shifts is the same as going to work.
Women and the elderly are guaranteed logistics and are paid monthly salaries.
That night 20 years ago, the third team was working in the third group, and by eight o'clock they had dug up the grave they had been looking for for decades. He also sent someone back to report the good news.
As a result, as soon as the announcer arrived in the village, a heavy fog came out of the mountains, and when the fog cleared, everything changed.
The team that did the work, including the village chief and some village cadres who followed the people who reported the good news into the mountain, did not return.
Stay up until dawn. The villagers went into the mountains to look for people, and what they found were corpses.
The villagers began to panic, some called the police, some offered to use explosives to blow up the pothole, and some proposed to move out of Panjia Village.
None of them came to fruition, the villagers found out. They can't get out.
Every time I went out of the village, I was trapped under the crooked neck tree, and I kept hitting the wall, but I didn't have any problems coming back.
In the evening, paper figures appear in the village who patrol the night.
The nerves of the villagers were tense in the face of the paper figures that appeared. Someone went crazy, and they attacked the paper people in all sorts of ways.
It was successful, the paper figures were knocked down, but they also died.
Later, the villagers found out that as long as they did not appear in front of the paper figures. It'll be fine.
There are also villagers who do not believe in evil and go into the mountains to find a way to crack it, and without exception, all of them die.
After such a toss, there are less than a hundred villagers still alive.
The disaster is not over, it is only the beginning.
Since then. Almost every quarter, the paper figures take a living villager into the mountains, and entering the mountains means death.
If there was no population replenishment, the villagers would have died long ago, and later, the first outsiders appeared in the village. Then the second, the third.
Over the past 20 years, more than 30 outsiders have come to the village, but in the last five years, I have been the only one.
No outsider survives, and every outsider is a sacrifice.
If nothing else, I will also be a sacrifice.
"The night patrol is coming, Xiao Gu, brother beg, let me go!"
After saying all this, Zhang Liang's face twisted, and he wanted to kneel down for me.
I took a deep look at him. Turned around and came to the gate, waiting for the night patrol paper man.
Zhang Liang's words completely shocked me, the origin of Panjia Village turned out to be like this, there is a big tomb in the mountain, and there is also the tomb of the mausoleum keeper.
It's just that I can't figure out why the village is like this. But one thing is certain, it must have something to do with the so-called tomb.
Qi'er Mountain is this mountain near Panjia Village.
The topography and particularity of Panjia Village are sandwiched between two mountains, and the part of the plug is a dense primeval forest, and the so-called tomb is in that forest.
It stands to reason. With this kind of terrain, there should not be large tombs at all.
In terms of feng shui, this is the traditional burial place, and when the dead are buried in this terrain, they will only accumulate yin qi and what will become of them in the end. Unpredictable.
"Bell!"
A clear gong brought me back to my senses, and thirty meters away, the two night watchmen walked over.
I subconsciously hid my figure and stared at the white lantern.
Just like just now, the paper man didn't even see me, and walked in front of me.
I glanced back at the two men in front of the window and followed silently.
Walking all the way to the mountain, when entering the mountain forest at the end of the village, the two paper figures were obviously relaxed, and the gong was casually carried aside, and the steps were much brisker.
After walking about a hundred meters, I saw the first pothole, which was not large, similar to a shaft, and only allowed one person to go up and down.
And these two paper figures entered this hole.
I stood on it, staring at the dark hole in a daze, did I go down or not?
Fortunately. I didn't have to wait too long, and the paper figure came up with a lantern.
Coming out of this pit, the paper figures continued to walk into the mountain, and after a while, they disappeared before my eyes again, and entered another hole.
I understand what these potholes are. Each pothole is a robbery hole, and these potholes represent the history of Panjia Village.
As they went deeper, the speed of the paper figure gradually increased, until they came to a cave, and the two discussed for a moment in front of the cave, muttered a few words, and then entered one after the other.
I hesitated for a moment, but I followed, and when I came to the cave, I paused again, thought for a moment, and went back the way I came, intending to come again at dawn.
"It's all come here, why are you back here?"
As soon as he turned around, a shrill voice suddenly came from the cave behind him.
"Who?"
I was startled and clenched the black skin.
