Chapter 29: The Secret of the Village
Teacher Jin listened to Xu Tian's suggestion, and the two walked to the back of the old house.
Not to mention, this road is very smooth, it is very difficult to walk in the snow on the road before, and the snow on the road in this direction is only past the calf, and there is no place where the snow is particularly deep.
"It's suspicious, it's too smooth." Teacher Jin said.
"And the dead trees around, have you noticed? The dead trees here look like they were deliberately planted, and they are arranged in a neat manner. Xu Tian said.
"This road is indeed smoother than the previous one, but where is the end of this road?" Teacher Jin said suspiciously.
"It won't take long to find out what's up ahead." Xu Tian said.
After walking about the same length as the previous road, Xu Tian and Teacher Jin saw a familiar scene.
There are also various wreaths and paper figurines buried in the snow around, and even a broken coffin can be seen at a distance.
"I have a bad feeling!" Xu Tian said.
"It's pretty much exactly the same thing you saw here and there." As he was talking, Mr. Jin suddenly used a flashlight to shine a rectangular stone, which was engraved with the three big characters of 'Grave of the Dead', and the font was also painted with red paint.
"Dead man's grave? Could it be that this is a real dead man's grave? Xu Tian said suspiciously.
"Look ahead!" Teacher Jin pointed to a flame in front of him and said.
Xu Tian and Teacher Jin saw it very clearly, and there was a squatting figure next to the flame, which was exactly the same as the scene where they saw Yingfeng burning paper before.
This time, Xu Tian and Teacher Jin immediately entered a high degree of cooperation, Xu Tian was responsible for staring at the figure, and Teacher Jin was responsible for observing the ground.
"There are no other people's footprints on the ground, and there are no other people's footprints in the area that the flashlight can reach." Teacher Jin said.
"The figure hasn't moved, I'm sure there's only one man crouching by the fire." Xu Tian said.
Just as the two of them were about to approach the figure, the figure behaved exactly the same as Ying Feng before, and the reality stood up, and then walked over to Xu Tian and Teacher Jin.
When the figure was very close to Xu Tian and Teacher Jin, the two found out that the figure was Yingfeng's father.
"Yingfeng's father? What are you doing here? Xu Tian asked.
Yingfeng's father saw Yingfeng's body on Teacher Jin's back at a glance, he ignored Xu Tian, but ran directly towards Teacher Jin.
"Is it Yingfeng? What's wrong with her? ”
"You listen to me......"
As soon as Teacher Jin's words fell, Yingfeng's father suddenly half-knelt on the ground, because Teacher Jin was carrying Yingfeng's corpse, he didn't have time to drag Yingfeng's father, and when Xu Tian approached Yingfeng's father, his whole body had already fallen into the snow.
"What's wrong with you? Can you still speak? Xu Tian shouted.
Yingfeng's father died in front of Xu Tian and Teacher Jin like Yingfeng, at this time Xu Tian hurriedly ran to the fire, the burning things could not be rescued, but Xu Tian found that the paper that was burned to ashes did not look like paper money, some of the paper was burned to ashes and had not been completely broken, and it was a whole sheet of A4 model paper at a glance.
After some investigation, there were no footprints around Yingfeng's father, and Yingfeng's father seemed to be parachuted into this area, so it can be said that this scene is exactly the same as the scene of Yingfeng's accident.
"What's going on! Two dead mounds? It must not be a coincidence that both lives were killed in front of us. Xu Tian said.
"And these two dead mounds worry me very much, are you interested in going back to the old house?" Teacher Jin said.
Xu Tian and Teacher Jin just wanted to go together, it was already 2:40 in the morning, and the temperature had dropped to minus 5 degrees Celsius, and Teacher Jin couldn't carry Yingfeng now, so the two had to put the bodies of the father and daughter in place.
Xu Tian wrote down what had just happened in his notebook, as well as the location of the bodies of Yingfeng's father and daughter, and after making these records, Xu Tian and Teacher Jin hurriedly returned to the old house.
This time, Xu Tian and Teacher Jin walked towards the front of the old house, the right side of the old house was the direction they walked in for the first time, and the road when they came was on the left side of the old house.
Now Mr. Jin did not carry the corpse on his back, the road here was smoother than the second road, and there were few dead trees and less snow here, so the two of them found the third dead grave almost after three o'clock in the morning.
The three characters of the Dead Man's Grave here are written on the plaque, and there are two wooden shelves at the intersection of the Dead Man's Tomb, and a wooden plaque is nailed to the top of the two wooden shelves, on which are written the three words Dead Man's Grave in black ink.
But this time, Xu Tian and Teacher Jin didn't see anyone lighting a fire and burning paper, but the two of them were not idle, and immediately began to search.
Before the two of them took a few steps, they heard the sound of a man chirping on the ground, Xu Tian and Teacher Jin followed the sound to find the man, and when the two saw the man's face, they couldn't help but be surprised, isn't this Chen Fan who is the lawyer in the Chen family's ancient mansion?
"Chen Fan? Why are you here? Xu Tian picked up Chen Fan and asked.
Chen Fan was so snorting that he couldn't speak at all, at this time, Teacher Jin hurriedly searched the surroundings, good guy, just like the scene of Yingfeng's father and daughter, Chen Fan also seemed to have parachuted here.
Xu Tian and Teacher Jin failed to save Chen Fan's life, and Chen Fan died in Xu Tian's arms two minutes later.
"As expected, this is also a dead man's grave, so you should see some problems now, right?" Xu Tian said.
"With the old house as the center, there is a dead man's grave in three directions, which reminds me of a very terrible thing." Teacher Jin said.
"That's right, if you judge by the distance of the old house to the three dead man's graves, the distance from the old house to the village is the same as these three roads." Xu Tian said.
"Could it be that the village is the fourth grave of the dead? It's unlikely, right? Teacher Jin said.
"Whether the village is a dead man's grave or not, let's go back to the village and take a look, especially at the entrance of the village, we should be able to find something iconic." Xu Tian said.
The two placed Chen Fan under a dead tree, hurriedly returned to the old house along the road, and ran in the direction of the village.
When the two ran to the entrance of the village, they searched everywhere for the sign of the dead man's grave, but found nothing at the entrance of the village.
Xu Tian looked at his mobile phone, showing that the number of steps was not as good as the previous three roads, so Xu Tian and Teacher Jin walked some more steps into the village, and when the two walked straight to the door of the ancestral hall, the number of steps displayed on Xu Tian's mobile phone was exactly the same as the number of steps on the previous three roads.
