Chapter 167: The Old Past of the Town (2)
As soon as the mayor heard that he was willing to stay, he agreed to his request without saying a word. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info And this time the feng shui changed something happened......
A few days after the mayor agreed, the merchant came in with a few so-called feng shui gentlemen. They did it day and night, around the town to exorcise ghosts and ask for gods, and finally found a lot of laborers in the village and made a big stone tablet, which is the one we just saw.
Strange things began to happen in that town, and at the beginning of the period, the livestock raised by everyone died inexplicably. And the death was miserable, as if it had been gnawed to death by something. Then some people couldn't sit still, saying that it was the immortals here who were angered by those who changed the feng shui, so it would cause the livestock to die inexplicably. Then they tried to ask the merchant for an explanation, and asked him to restore the place to its original state.
Not only did the town not return to its original form, but it became ill, and no matter how it was treated, it was useless, until later, they began to gnaw at themselves like those livestock, and even bit themselves to death.
The people of the town were even more panicked, and the mayor of the town stood up and said that the stone tablet in the town was used to invite the gods, and only by bowing to it and worshipping it, and being pious enough, could it be protected by the gods.
Seeing that the mayor of the town said this, everyone had no choice but to try to believe what he said, and began to kowtow to the stone tablet every day. For those who are devout and prostrate, the mayor will give everyone some rune paper and a jar of things that can be used in the town's house......
When the villager surnamed Hu said this, he went back to his bedroom, took a jar from under the bed, put it in front of us, and said, "Come, you see, this is what the mayor said is the reward of the true god for the devout......
When I saw this bottle, I felt very familiar, and Yaolong and the Dead Apostles recognized this jar at a glance, and they whispered: "Where is this treasure given by the true god, it is clearly ghost oil!" ”
The resident surnamed Hu didn't hear them, sighed and continued to himself: "Actually, think about it, this is also a good thing, it can prevent the invasion of some outsiders, at least ensure the safety of the town......"
Hearing this, I probably understood, it seems that this villager surnamed Hu is a believer in this so-called "true god". Thinking about it, I asked him, "So how did your family leave?" ”
He sighed and replied, "Hey~ My parents died early, and they left one after another when I was a teenager and in my twenties. And I had a little daughter myself, but my wife didn't believe in the existence of the 'true God', and divorced me because of this, and then she left with her daughter who had just completed the moon, and only came back once in a while......" He said that he pinched the days and calculated and continued: "Speaking of which, she hasn't been back for a while, and I don't know if they are doing well......"
As he spoke, a sad look appeared on his face, and when I heard his words, I thought to myself, "What he said is very similar to the experience of the girl we met in the hospital, could it be that this person is the father of that girl?" It can't be that coincidental......"
Thinking about it, I looked at the Dead Apostles and Yaolong sitting across from me, their faces solemn at the moment, their eyes staring at a small jar of ghost oil on the table.
At this time, Li Zhisheng pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked: "This eldest brother, you just said that the merchant promised to stay, but you never mentioned what he was doing, is he still in the town?" ”
Li Zhisheng's question made me have doubts, "Yes, since you are a businessman, you must have your own purpose no matter what, even if it is not for money, you must have ulterior motives." If we can find out the whereabouts of the merchant, we may be able to understand the ins and outs of this matter more deeply. ”
Thinking about it, I patiently listened to the resident surnamed Hu explain: "This merchant is strange to say, he hasn't appeared since he found a few feng shui masters to do the Dharma. I heard that it seems to be in the ore business, and it is very rich anyway to dump some rough stones such as gold ore and silver ore......
With that, he turned and went into the kitchen, and poured himself another glass of water, which was already muddy. I looked at the cup he was holding and asked, "Brother Hu, won't you have a problem drinking this water?" It doesn't look clean......"
The man smiled and said, "You don't know, now this water is in a hurry, before it was changed, it was just yellow mud soup, and it couldn't be swallowed at all......
I shook my head, silently worried about the health of the residents. At this moment, the Dead Apostle, who had been silent, asked with a puzzled expression, "What about the mayor of the town?" Is he still in town? ”
The resident said, "Although the mayor of the town has several apartments in the city, he often comes back to live there, probably for the convenience of work......," said the resident, drinking the water from his cup.
"Can you please take us to the mayor?" Dead Apostle said.
The resident surnamed Hu was a little puzzled: "What are you looking for him for, do you also want to do business here?" If so, I advise you to leave as soon as possible, or ......"
Before the resident could finish speaking, Yaolong interrupted him and said, "You don't care about it, we are looking for him to have something to ......do," he said, he took out some money from his backpack and slapped it on the table and said, "You have to tell us that all this money is your ......"
Seeing the money, the resident surnamed Hu's eyes suddenly lit up, and he smiled at Yaolong and said: "It's not easy for you to find the mayor of the town, which of the tallest buildings in this town is his, white bricks and red tiles, you can know it at a glance......" After speaking, he stretched out his hand to the money.
After hearing this, the Dead Apostle said to me, "Without further ado, it may be dark if we stay, so let's hurry up first, or it will be too late by then...... and he and Yaolong got up to thank the villager surnamed Hu and say goodbye.
I followed them all the way down the first floor and out of the resident's house. As soon as I walked out, my Dead Apostle said to me with a gloomy face, "If I'm not mistaken, then the so-called merchant must be the Yin Master, and if it is a Yang Shi, they can't let a ghost mound with such power go unchecked. And, I suspect that this mayor may not be alive at this time! ”
"No one is alive?!" Hu Fang was taken aback.
I was also a little surprised when I heard this, and asked, "You mean, he also became the kind of living dead that Yang Shi studied?" ”
The Dead Apostle shook his head and said, "I'm afraid not, because that kind of living dead has only been made by Yang Shi in recent years, and the timing is not right, and as far as I know, Yin Master has another way to manipulate the living......"
