Chapter 19: The River God Appears
Since Xue Liangui changed into clean clothes, his whole person's spirit has changed. This time the sacrifice to the river god set off his extraordinary.
At this time, Xue Liangui, with a peachwood sword in his hand, stood behind the incense case, staring at Wang Chuanhe with a pair of eyes half-open and half-closed, and the corners of his mouth were lightly reciting the incantation.
On the incense table, there are three animals, incense burners, cinnabar, glutinous rice, and even dozens of paper symbols.
"Up!"
With a loud shout, the sacrifice to the river god officially began.
After the three pillars of incense were lit, the cigarette curled up, and Xue Liangui grabbed a handful of glutinous rice and sprinkled it in front of the incense case, then brandished a peachwood sword, inserted the paper talisman, and said loudly: "Disciple Ziwei Guan Xue Liangui, today I tried to pass on the river, bowed down to worship the river god Niangniang......
As the words fell, Xue Liangui held the peachwood sword in one hand, took seven steps backwards behind him, and then held the peachwood sword above his head, and the whole person seemed to bow and salute.
With a bang, this Wang Chuanhe let out a roar, like a thunderstorm falling from the Nine Heavens.
The people on the shore were a little frightened, looking at the river with a frightened face, feeling that the river began to swing slowly, and then the water level continued to rise.
Xue Liangui spoke again: "The Nine Heavens Jade Emperor, the saint of the Human Emperor's clan, sacrifice himself to block the northern shortage, save all sentient beings, the great grace of the Emperor, the people of Li will survive forever, come today and pray for peace and ......tranquility."
When this passage was recited, the whole Wang Chuan River changed, and the river water seemed to be boiling, constantly tumbling, bubbling, and the water surface was rattling, and it kept slapping towards both banks.
The big guys were so frightened that they retreated, with panic on their faces, and even some uneasy people were so frightened that they knelt on the ground, begging the river god to spare their lives.
At this time, I realized that Xue Liangui's face was ugly to death, as if he had gritted his teeth.
"Respectfully, the river god Niangniang Sheng'an......" Xue Liangui said almost word for word.
With a bang, the water of the Wang Chuan River suddenly exploded, and at this time, the surface of the river became hazy, and everything was not so real.
My heart was lifted, I still had some confidence in Xue Liangui, but now I had no hope all of a sudden. In this meeting, I didn't see the river god at all!
Xue Liangui's eyes widened, then he took a deep breath and said again: "Respectfully invite the river god Niangniang......"
After the words fell, everyone was in an uproar, pointing at Wang Chuanhe one after another, and their faces became ugly.
I looked up and saw the middle of the river, as if a phantom had appeared. Only the upper half of the phantom was revealed, and the remaining half of the body was still in the water of the Wang Chuan River.
This phantom was dressed in a white cloak, gently rippling, and his hair was as black as ink, floating towards his back, and the most important thing was that this phantom was wearing a bronze mask.
The bronze mask was too frightening, with broad lips and two miserable white teeth, and raised eyebrows to look at the people on the riverbank.
This is the river god Niangniang? The first time I saw this, I couldn't believe it.
The big guys were also frightened, and they retreated vigorously, but the old ninth master always stood on the riverbank, although his body was swinging, he didn't retreat a single step.
After Xue Liangui saw this phantom, he took a step forward directly, then withdrew the peachwood sword, and saluted with both hands in fists, "River God Niangniang......"
Before Xue Liangui's words were finished, he heard the middle of the river explode again, and the phantom began to disperse, and in the middle of the river, a stone platform was suddenly exposed.
This stone platform is not very big, at most three meters square, and the strange thing is that this stone platform has been rising, as if it is about to poke its head out of the river, and all the manifestations are in front of everyone's eyes.
My eyes widened, and I felt a palpitation in my heart for no reason, but at this time, I saw that the stone platform had been exposed more than three meters high, and it was still rising.
Second Uncle Zhang's face was pale, with fear in his eyes, "It's over......"
At this time, Xue Liangui also seemed to realize that it was not good, and shouted, "Demon, dare to go against the river god!" ”
As soon as he finished saying this, a thunderbolt suddenly fell from the sky, which happened to slash on the stone platform, and after the stone platform trembled for a while, a blood-colored traditional character began to appear.
'Kill'
This word is bright red as blood, under this thunder, as if alive, the handwriting on it shows blood marks one after another, like a person bleeding from the seven orifices, dyeing the entire stone platform red.
Xue Liangui immediately spurted out a mouthful of blood, and the whole person instantly aged by more than ten years, the peach wood sword dance was impenetrable, and the sweat on his forehead flowed down.
Rumble......
At this moment, I don't know what it was, there was a loud noise, which made everyone fall to their knees in fright.
Second Uncle Zhang's mouth opened wide, tears flowed out of his eyes, and he turned his head to look at the village.
At this time, everyone's eyes were all looking at the stockade, because the loud noise actually came from the stockade.
Old Ninth Master's body trembled a little, "Go back and see, what's going on!" ”
The big guy hurriedly got up, with panic on his face, and rushed towards the stockade. The sound just now was too loud, and no one dared to be careless.
I followed, tired and panting, and finally rushed to the stockade, and the whole person stood there as if struck by lightning.
A large group of people stood in front of the original ancestral hall, their faces were ugly to death, and they couldn't wait to kneel down and kowtow to the ancestral hall.
The ancestral hall has collapsed!
The entire ancestral hall is gone, leaving only a large pit.
This big pit is boxy, with a depth of four or five meters, and there are dense coffins in the big pit, layer upon layer, one by one, one by one, not to mention hundreds. Some of these coffins have rotted, and some seem to be brand new, with different shapes and sizes, different ages, and some have even rotted out holes, and the inside is black, and no one knows whether a dry claw will stick out in the black hole the next moment.
At the top of these coffins was the remains of the female corpse, lying in the center of the pit, with countless coffins pressed under her, looking up at the sky, as if silently telling and pleading.
My scalp exploded, my legs didn't work, and I fell to the ground with a pale face.
The old ninth master also arrived, and when he saw the ancestral hall collapse, his eyes rolled and he fainted. Fortunately, someone held him up and kept him from falling completely.
Second Uncle Zhang staggered backwards in the crowd, his face turned pale for a while, "It's time to come, it's still here!" It's still here......"
"Second Uncle...... "I don't know how to comfort him, I can only hold his shoulder."
Second Uncle Zhang's tears flowed down, making me feel an indescribable distress.
"Second uncle, what the hell is going on?" I asked loudly, but my eyes were fixed on the dense coffins in the big pit of the ancestral hall. There are so many of these coffins that many are unimaginable.
Second Uncle Zhang took my hand and said, "Go and stop Mr. Xue...... Just go! ”
I staggered to my feet and ran towards the outside of the stockade, and at this time on the riverbank, Mr. Xue had already knelt on the ground, his mouth full of blood.
The stone platform disappeared, as if it had never appeared, and the Wang Chuan River also returned to calm, and the river flowed in a hurry, and there was no difference in the state.
I hurriedly ran over, supported Xue Liangui, and said, "Mr. Xue, Second Uncle Zhang asked you to stop, something happened in the village......
Xue Liangui wiped the traces on the corners of his mouth, his expression was a little sluggish, and when he heard that something big had happened in the village, he hurriedly asked me, "What's wrong?" Did the female corpse go berserk again? ”
"Go back and have a look!" I said it out loud.
Xue Liangui hurriedly stood up and hurried towards the village.
When he arrived at the village, Xue Liangui's body shook suddenly, staring at the coffin in the big pit, and muttered: "No wonder the yin qi here is so heavy, it turns out that there are so many coffins buried!" ”
At this time, someone in the crowd finally exclaimed, "That coffin...... Why is it so much like my mother? ”
"The big one seems to be my father's ...... back then"
"Isn't that black one from Widow Chen's husband?"
At this time, the crowd really exploded, and one by one, with anger on their faces, hurriedly ran to the edge of the big pit, identifying the coffins of their relatives.
The coffins of their relatives were buried here, but what about the cemetery? Isn't the cemetery empty?
The people in the stockade suddenly exploded and woke up the old ninth master one by one, wanting to ask what was going on. Why does the coffin buried in the cemetery appear in the ancestral hall?
The old ninth master stared at the ancestral hall, and said with tears in his eyes: "Everyone let's dissipate their anger first, I don't know about this matter!" But I, Cui Laojiu, can assure you that I will find out a result for everyone! ”
At this time, everyone's face looked better, after all, in the countryside, digging graves and carrying coffins is a big taboo, whose ancestral grave is dug up, it is simply a slap in the face and killing someone.
Xue Liangui's expression was complicated, and he stopped everyone with his two hands, "Don't get close, the yin is too heavy here, no one should go over......"
Although everyone was worried about the coffins of their relatives, when they saw Xue Liangui's solemn appearance, they also knew that they couldn't step forward at this time, so they stood far away.
More and more coffins were identified by the big guys, and some people began to whisper, after all, people were already dead, and after being buried in the ground, this coffin appeared in the big pit of the ancestral hall, which was really a little evil.
Old Ninth Master sighed and looked at Xue Liangui, "Mr. Xue, what the hell is going on?" ”
Xue Liangui's face was not good-looking, and he sighed and said, "I can't say anything about this either!" ”
"Then you can't put the coffin here?" Someone shouted.
The crowd suddenly shouted, not knowing what to say, and Xue Liangui frowned and didn't speak, but the old ninth master couldn't stand it.
"Don't worry, let me discuss it with Mr. Xue first!" The old ninth master walked to Xue Liangui's side tremblingly, and said to Xue Liangui with a sigh: "Mr. Xue, can you see if you can change the place of the female corpse?" At least let the big guys take the coffin out first! ”
Xue Liangui said hesitantly: "Brother Jiu, I can hold down the female corpse for the time being, but I don't dare to guarantee what will happen if these coffins are taken away!" ”
"You're saying that once these coffins are carried away, something will happen?" The old ninth master asked in a trembling voice.
