Chapter 257: The Four Gates (43)
The head of the whole village said: "The old village chief called the women of the four families to Houshanle, planning to have a fun time in fish and water, where do you know, this matter made the men of the four families catch a scene, and later, in order to retaliate against the whole village chief, all kinds of revenge methods emerged one after another, and finally, in this back mountain, more than a dozen people died, and this matter was calmed down." ”
Hearing this, I suddenly realized that if I guessed correctly, the whole thing may not be the matter of the four gates, but the contradiction between the four families and the old village chief, in other words, the whole thing is likely to be a revenge.
I would think like this, firstly, because the social customs at that time were quite strict about the affairs of men and women, otherwise, there would not be any widow village, invading the pig cage, and second, the old village chief's little book.
Combining the two, I immediately understood that the source of the whole thing was probably from the old village chief.
Thinking of this, I immediately asked the village chief, "What happened later?" ”
He sighed deeply and continued, "What can I do later? So many people have died, it must be someone from above, but I don't know what the old village chief did, after the people above came down, they didn't do anything with the old village chief, on the contrary, they also gave the old village chief a pennant. ”
As soon as I heard this, what was the situation, and was about to speak, I heard the gambler Su speak, he said: "The bullshit pennant, that thing is a lie, my father was there at the time, his old man said, the back mountain is evil, that pennant seems to be from some kind of magic flag, all these years has been buried in the back mountain." ”
French flags?
What was going on, and how did they feel that there were more and more things being pulled out now, so I asked them, "Did anything happen in that village later?" ”
As soon as the words fell, the gambler Su seemed to think of something, his face changed suddenly, and he said in a deep voice: "Of course something big happened, at that time, due to the death of more than a dozen people, plus the law flag was buried in the back mountain, the whole back mountain was also calm, about twenty years ago, in the words of the old village chief, the law flag was useless, and you had to find someone else to make a law flag, and the person who made the law flag at that time was none other than your father of Captain Peng." ”
In an instant, I immediately understood, presumably Captain Peng's father came to get the magic flag, and then something happened, which eventually led to Captain Peng's father dying in a foreign land.
Thinking of this, I stared at the gambler Su deeply, and said lightly: "Can you tell me where the magic flag is buried?" ”
He stopped and said, "What kind of Captain Peng, he didn't bury the magic flag, but made a weighing stone and buried it on the top of the back mountain." ”
Scales?
Buried on the top of the back mountain?
I looked at me and hurriedly asked, "Why the scales?" ”
He smiled bitterly and said, "I'm just an ordinary person, where do I know so much, but, listening to Captain Peng, this scale has a lot of origins, and it is said that it can hold the four gates." ”
Well, I guess I don't have much knowledge.
However, I thought of another thing, that is, the old man Wang's son killed the fox, maybe the old man Wang's son killed the fox, it was not the cause of the whole thing, he just killed a fox at the right time, in other words, even if the son of the old man Wang did not kill the fox, this series of dead people will also happen in the brisket village.
Thinking about this, I took a deep breath, and without asking any further, I urged the gambler Su and the village chief to hurry to the top of the mountain.
When the two of them heard me say this, they walked towards the top of the mountain, followed by Su Xiaoman and I.
When our group walked to the top of the mountain, we found that the top of the mountain was quite strange, not like an ordinary mountaintop, showing a sharp trend, but a piece of flat land, about six square meters, and what was even more evil was that the location of the top of the mountain, not a single inch of grass grows, and the whole land looks quite barren.
"Little brother, oh, Captain Peng's father buried the scales here." Sue the Gambler pulled me towards the center of my mountaintop.
I looked down where he was pointing, and it was unusually flat, not like something was buried.
The gambler Su should have seen my doubts, and he didn't speak, but squatted down, then picked up a stone and began to throw it on the ground.
After about seven or eight throws, a yellowed fabric appeared on the ground, and the evil thing was that the fabric seemed to be new, and had not been eroded by the years and become obsolete.
I quickly squatted down and reached out to touch the fabric, which was extremely silky and did not feel the slightest rough hand.
I frowned, and was about to pull out the fabric, but the gambler Su said on the side, "No, this fabric is buried very deep, and it is difficult to pull it out, and once it is pulled out, it is very likely to attract animals from the four gates." ”
I looked at him suspiciously, but I didn't speak, mainly because I didn't know what to say, so I slowly got up and took a flashlight to look around.
In this photo, I immediately noticed that the top of this mountain was a little barren and a little flat, as if it was no different from other mountain tops.
It's strange, logically speaking, there should be no problem with this mountaintop, why do strange things happen so often?
Wait a minute.
I suddenly remembered that there would definitely be trees and other things on the top of the mountain, and no matter how bad it was, there would be grass or something, but the top of the mountain was bare, as if it had been burned by the six flavors of real fire.
At that moment, I immediately squatted down, threw a pot of soil, and sniffed it a little, and found that the soil had a strong smell, as if some liquid was poured on it.
This discovery made my brow furrow, and I threw some dirt in another place, sniffed it, and it was as if there was some liquid poured on it as before, and the smell was very strong.
At this moment, Su Xiaoman came over and asked me, "Senior brother, did you find anything?" ”
I hummed and said, "There's something wrong with the dirt in this place." ”
"Dirt?" The gambler Su and the whole village chief also came over and looked at me incredulously.
I glanced at them with a flashlight and said in a deep voice, "If I'm not mistaken, those dozen people should have died here!" ”
There is a reason why I say this, the reason is that when I sniffed the dirt just now, I vaguely felt that the soil had a very faint smell of corpses, of course, this kind of corpse smell cannot be smelled by ordinary people, only ghost craftsmen can smell it.
Speaking of which, some people will definitely question me, how can those dozen or so people have been dead for decades, how can they still smell of corpses.
Frankly speaking, theoretically, this is true, but from the perspective of our ghost craftsmen, it is different, you must know that even if decades have passed, the blood or decay left over from the corpse will merge with the corpse.
As long as the corpse is fused with the dirt, we ghost craftsmen can smell it.
Therefore, I immediately concluded that not only did the dozen or so people die here, but their bodies are even buried here.
