Chapter 173: Human Face
When I lowered my voice, several people all looked back at the incense on the ground.
The two incense sticks that were overturned before had been extinguished at this time because they touched the wet surface, and the last incense stick that was overturned was pressed on these two incense sticks, not next to the ground, and was still burning.
Just when a few people were entangled with me about how the incense was broken, the incense that finally overturned actually burned a large section, from the word "Feng" to the word "dry", and the "head" on it was gone.
When a few people looked at it, they immediately stared at me, and then they all looked at me, in fact, one asked, "What kind of prompt do you say this is?" β
I was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Can't you see this?" β
Several people shook their heads at the same time, and I said: "It's very simple, don't you see that the three incense sticks have become the word 'dry', let's look for it from the middle of the house to the northeast corner of the house, in this distance, where the soil is dry, where is the grave of the old couple." β
However, before I could speak, several people actually looked at it and laughed, one of them waved at the others, "Let's go, go home for dinner, don't ask a child to tease us anymore......"
I was stunned on the spot, and actually took my words as a joke.
A few people left the house, and on the way they stirred up the others, who of course would not believe me, and finally dispersed, leaving me alone.
Looking at their backs as they left, I smiled bitterly, and I couldn't help but shout at them: "Heyββ! Which of you lends me an iron hammer......"
No one paid any attention to me, not even a single one turned back, and after a while, in the east, a group of people walked one to the south and one to the north, and gradually dispersed into the streets and alleys of their village.
I bit my lip, in the middle, you don't dig, I'll dig by myself. Walking west along the main road, I asked one by one to see if I could borrow an iron drill, and I asked several in a row, and finally one of them opened my favor and lent me a rusty pointed iron drill.
Carrying the iron chisel back to the house, I looked at the three incense sticks on the ground, and the last incense stick that overturned over was extinguished at some point, and there was still a "dry" word on the ground. I sighed in my heart, don't these villagers, don't their brains turn, I don't want to think about it, the incense stick above is so long just now, but a few words of effort, a large section of it will be burned, is this normal?
They can't understand it, I can't pretend to be confused with them, this is definitely a hint from the old couple to me!
Carrying the iron cat to the waist, I began to look for it, from the middle of the house, step by step towards the northeast corner of the house.
On the ground, it was all wet, just when I was about to walk to the northeast corner, there was a bowl of dry soil, my heart jumped, and then to the front of this dry soil, it became wet soil, and the whole looked again, before and after, the size of the bowl mouth on this piece is dry, not that kind of special dry, that is, it looks not so wet in other places, and it is not sticky when you step on it, and you can't see it if you don't look carefully.
I spat on my hand twice, picked up the iron drill and dug it up. After more than an hour, the digging can be almost a meter deep. I gasped and stopped, not because I was too tired, but because I was so hungry that I was tired.
I thought to myself, if only I could have something to eat, this hungry, rest for a while and dig slowly. took out a cigarette from his body and just ordered to smoke, and at this time, Qiang Shun actually came back.
Qiang Shun stopped on the side of the road and shouted at me, "Huang He, have you eaten?" β
I said in my heart, where am I going to eat, I am almost too hungry to hold the iron, smiled bitterly at him, and shook my head.
Qiang Shun immediately beckoned me, "Let's go to that man's house for dinner, Chen Daochang asked me to come over and call you, he and Brother Silly Niu are waiting for you at the man's house." β
Hearing Qiang Shun say this, his heart was a little warmer, and he turned his head to look into the pit he dug, in addition to loess or loess, he didn't know when to dig, he waved his hand at Qiang Shun, carried the iron drill and followed Qiang Shun towards the strong man's house.
The strong man's home, a little north-east of their village, was not too far from the haunted house.
Ten minutes later, we arrived at the strong man's house.
At this time, there were quite a lot of people in the courtyard of the strong man's house, and I swept it, and it was the same people who pulled Chen Hui before, and they were probably waiting to find Chen Hui to see something.
The iron drill was placed in the yard, and Qiang Shun led me into the hall of the strong man's house, and when I entered the house, I saw that the strong man's house was not badly arranged, and it should not be poor.
Chen Hui and Silly Niu were both sitting at the dining table in the hall at this time, and the strong man was also there, and there was a woman, who was probably the wife of the strong man. Seeing me and Qiang Shun entering the door, Chen Hui stood up from the chair and beckoned me to sit down, the strong man and the woman saw this, and also stood up from the chair, the strong man was quite enthusiastic, came and grabbed one of my arms, and said anything, he didn't move the chopsticks yet, just waiting for me.
Pulling the strong man to the table, I looked at the table, there were four dishes, meat and vegetarian, and there was a bottle of wine and a big pot of white rice next to it. As soon as I saw this, I was even hungrier in my stomach, and I swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva in a row, and I was no longer polite to anyone, so I sat down and ate.
After gobbling up and eating, Chen Hui quietly pulled me aside, and he told me that the affairs of the strong man's family are actually very easy to handle, but the child is scared of something, Qiang Shun has also seen it with yin and yang eyes, there is nothing around the child, at their home, and he only needs to do a requiem ritual for the child later.
After Chen Hui finished speaking, I nodded slightly, and Chen Hui immediately asked me, "How are you doing over there, have you found the grave of the old couple?" β
When I heard this, I smiled bitterly at him with a bitter melon face, and said, "I've found it, but ...... After finding the grave of the old couple, no one helped me dig it, and I dug it up by myself for more than an hour, tired and hungry, and I didn't dig anything......
Chen Hui nodded confidently, "This is easy to do!" β
Immediately, Chen Hui gathered these people from the strong man's family together, and Chen Hui said to them, if you want to see evil things, there must be a person from each family to follow the Yellow River to dig the tomb, as long as the old couple in the tomb are dug out, the evil things in your family can be half better.
As soon as Chen Hui said this, these guys with eyes and beads all agreed without saying a word, including the strong man.
Chen Hui asked me to bring the stupid cow over too, so that the two of us could take care of it. Then, I counted the number of people, plus me and the stupid cow, and the strong man, a total of eight people. After the other five people had gone home and picked up their guys, a group of people from me rushed to the haunted house again.
At this time, I pointed to the place where I had dug before, and told them to enlarge the pit and dig deeper.
A few people were really obedient and worked together, but they dug it up.
After another more than an hour passed, the pit has been dug for us to have more than one person deep, at this time, because the space in the pit has become narrow, several people can only take turns digging in the pit, at most two people can go down at a time, eight people are divided into four groups, two people dig, and the other six people clean up the loess dug out of the pit.
After I had been digging in the pit with the stupid cow for a while, the strong man and another young man of about twenty years old replaced us and continued to dig in the pit.
The two of them had just gone down to dig a few times before they heard a soft "click" sound from the soil under their feet.
I was stunned for a moment, and I said to myself, did I dig something? The strong man and the young man in the pit glanced at each other, but before the two people could react, followed by a "boom", the loess under the feet of the two people fell down, as if it was empty below, and the two people suddenly exclaimed, and at the same time, the bodies of the two people fell together with the loess.
At this time, everyone on the pit noticed it, all at a loss, stunned and looked at the pit, this is just a matter of a moment, and when the people above come back to their senses, the strong man and the young man under the pit have fallen to a depth of more than a meter, but the two of them seem to have stepped on something at this time, and their bodies are not buried in the loess, so they stop and no longer sink.
The strong man steadied himself at this time, looked at his feet, raised his head and shouted at us, "It's like a coffin below, we have trampled the lid on the coffin!" β
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, and they all looked at their feet, and I also looked at it at this time, but I could only vaguely see some rotten coffin slabs and loess, and I couldn't see anything in the coffin.
I hurriedly beckoned the strong man and the two of them to clean up the loess and broken coffin lid to see if there were any bones in the coffin.
The strong man agreed, he didn't have anything, picked up the iron drill and cleaned it up, but the young man was a little timid at this time, his face turned pale, and he was obviously scared. People who haven't experienced this kind of thing will be afraid of anyone who is cold.
When the strong man saw this, he gave the young man courage, saying that there was nothing to be afraid of, wasn't it just a pile of rotten bones, and the people above also gave the young man courage, and some had to go down to replace the young man, and the young man finally picked up the iron drill and planed it up.
The two of them pulled for a while, and the young man let out a scream, spread his iron drill and leaned back, kicked backwards, and just hit the strong man, and the strong man didn't pay attention, and both of them knocked over in the coffin.
The people above didn't know what was going on, they shouted in the pit, the strong man reacted quickly, pushed away the little young man and got up from the coffin, the little young man was pale and trembling at this time, the strong man glanced at him, stretched out his hand, pulled him up from the ground, and asked in a rough voice: "What's wrong with you?" β
Xiao Young trembled his hands and pointed to the place he had just planed, I looked at the place where he pointed at this time, there was nothing, there was a layer of floating soil, Xiao Young should have seen something just now, I guess he panicked, and raised the floating soil to cover the things below.
The strong man also looked at the place of the little young man's finger, and didn't seem to see anything, let go of the little young man and walked over, and used the iron drill in his hand to remove the layer of floating soil.
"Ahh The strong man suddenly screamed.
I hurriedly crouched down and looked under the layer of floating soil that the strong man had pulled away......
The people on the pit were also in chaos in an instant, and they seemed to see it, and they saw that under the floating soil, there was a white face buried!
