Chapter Ninety-Three: The Stone Statue
I can understand Xu Shimin, since Wang Jiong took the things, he naturally has his reason in it.
At the moment, I didn't continue to talk to Xu Shimin, so I asked him where Wang Jiong was, and he said that Wang Jiong went to the back mountain.
Back Mountain?
I frowned and asked him, "What are you doing in the back mountain?" ”
He said: "I'm a little ordinary person, where I understand what he means, I know that he asked my parents to take him to the back mountain." ”
I glanced at Qin Laosan, it seemed that I wanted to see the blood coffin and Lu Banqi, so I could only discuss it with Wang Jiong, which made me cry bitterly, and I only knocked him at noon, and now I have to go to him, isn't this sending meat to the door.
After weighing it, I had to bite the bullet and let Xu Shimin lead us to Wang Jiong.
That Xu Shimin was also easy to speak, and immediately took out a flashlight and led us out.
After going out, the sky was completely dark, and it was impossible to say that the five fingers could not be seen, but the visibility was extremely low, and Xu Shimin said that their village was not very peaceful at night, so when we walked at night, we should not look back.
I frowned slightly, and I didn't think deeply, so I took out the Lu Ban ruler from the toolbox and handed it to Qin Laosan, asking him to pay attention.
When Xu Shimin saw me digging out the Luban ruler, he stared at me meaningfully for a while, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect the little brother to be very knowledgeable." ”
I smiled, didn't speak, and followed him straight to the back mountain.
In Xu Shimin's words, there have been more people going out to work in recent years, and the village has gradually become deserted, so I was curious at the time, so I asked him why he didn't go out to work. He said that he had found a job in the county, barely able to support himself, and did not want to leave his hometown and be bullied outside.
When we climbed halfway up the mountain, we could vaguely see a few yellow lights flashing at the top of the mountain, which should be Wang Jiong and others.
Seeing this, we couldn't help but speed up a little.
When we climbed to the top of the mountain, we were almost tired, mainly because the mountain was too steep, and we were in a hurry, so we only felt as if our feet were not our own.
However, I didn't rest, it's not that I don't want to rest, but I wasn't in the mood to rest at all, because my eyes were attracted by a stone statue on the top of the mountain, the stone statue was about one zhang three high, covering an area of two feet one, because of the night, I couldn't see what the stone statue was, and quickly took a flashlight from Xu Shimin's hand and shone it over.
Before my flashlight could shine on the stone statue, a voice came, "Who! ”
Immediately afterwards, a flashlight shone on my face, and I followed the flashlight light, and found that there were five people standing six meters away from us, three of whom I had seen, Wang Jiong and his companions, and the remaining two, in their early sixties, dressed quite plainly, with old pleats, should be Xu Shimin's parents.
Seeing this, Wang Jiong walked over to me, and while walking, he said: "The eighth office is doing things, and the idle people are waiting for Lao Tzu to get out!" ”
When I heard this, I frowned slightly, no wonder the police officer Xiao Zhuo would say that this person had a bad temper, so he walked over to him and said with a smile: "I'm here to join in the fun." ”
"Join in the fun?" His face sank, he glanced at me, and finally stopped his eyes on the toolbox on me, and said lightly, "It turns out that he is a stinky ghost craftsman again." ”
Hearing this, I wanted to beat him, what is a stinky ghost craftsman, but seeing that there are many others, I had to laugh and say: "Yes, you are right, I am a stinky ghost craftsman, you are fragrant, more fragrant than elm." ”
That Wang Jiong ignored me, took the flashlight and shone Qin Laosan and Xu Shimin again, stopped talking, turned around and walked towards the stone statue.
I took advantage of this to look at the stone statue, just glanced at it, my eyes could no longer leave, and I kept muttering a sentence in my mouth, "Impossible, how can this stone statue appear here, impossible, absolutely impossible." ”
That Wang Jiong saw that I was stunned, and sneered: "Yo, you stinky ghost craftsman still know this thing?" ”
I ignored him, staring at the stone statue with fixed eyes, how could this be, this kind of thing should be a legendary thing, it is impossible to appear here, even if it is a stone statue.
In an instant, I immediately understood why Wang Jiong of the Eighth Office came here, and he was probably not for Xu Shiqing's death, but for this stone statue.
I swallowed, this stone statue is carved with 彘 (zhi).
Speaking of this, the origin is quite big, according to the Book of Mountains and Seas, it is a kind of fierce beast in Fuyu Mountain, with tiger markings and ox tails, but the body shape is like an ape, its cry is like a ghost crying wolf howl, feeding on people, where it appears, it will be accompanied by a large number of deaths.
Because of this, almost no one dares to carve a stone statue, mainly because they feel unlucky. However, our ghost craftsmen occasionally use golden silk nanmu to carve this kind of bi, put it into the coffin of the murderer, the purpose of which is to suppress evil spirits, but the effect is not very obvious, to the new society, this kind of bi wood carving rarely appears.
However, what I didn't expect was that there would be such a large statue of the stone in the back mountain of this village, and more importantly, the surface of the statue had a layer of soil, which was obviously unearthed not long ago, in other words, it was dug up by someone.
Wait, no.
I hurriedly took a flashlight and shone it on the side of the stone statue, and found that there was no trace of digging on the side of the stone statue, and I also shone on some nearby places, and the same was true.
It's weird, could it be that this is out of thin air?
At that moment, I hurriedly asked Xu Shimin, who was resting, "Has this stone statue been in the back mountain?" ”
He scratched the back of his head and said, "What appeared last night, this back mountain was very barren before, how could there be such a big stone carving." ”
When I heard this, I was even more puzzled, Xu Shiqing died yesterday, and this stone statue also appeared yesterday, is there a connection between the two?
Just when I was stunned, Wang Jiong came over and said, "The little kid has nothing to do here, just do what you have to do, don't get in the way here." ”
I stared at him deeply, and said lightly, "Wang Jiong, right!" Believe it or not, without me, even if you find out next year, you won't be able to find out what's going on. ”
I dare to say this because when Dafanbi appears, a series of strange things will spring up like mushrooms after a rain. And since we ghost craftsmen dare to carve the bi, we naturally know how to deal with it. Therefore, I dare to conclude that this Wang Jiong definitely does not have this ability.
As the so-called specialization has skills, this is the truth.
When Wang Jiong heard me say this, he glanced at me contemptuously, "Joke, there is nothing in this world that we can't understand." ”
I ignored him, although I didn't understand what kind of organization the Eighth Office was, but I didn't have a good impression of this Wang Jiong, and I was about to speak. Suddenly, I don't know what was going on, and a dull voice came from the stone statue.
The voice was full of resentment, so low and eerie, like a ghost crying wolf, echoing on the top of this inky mountain, making all of us feel cold in our backs, and subconsciously took a step back.
