Chapter 28: Spellcasting
I roughly told the second uncle about the content of the painting, and the second uncle frowned, remembering what happened last night, patted his head, and suddenly realized: "The severed arms and stumps we saw yesterday may be related to the content of the painting."

I took a closer look at the other side of the coffin, and there was also a picture carved on it, which showed that some people tried to escape, but were captured by the officers and soldiers, and then there was the capital punishment of five horses, and the torsos and heads were scattered all over the ground, and the corpses were in the wilderness.
I couldn't bear to look any further, so I said to the second uncle below: "The severed arms and stumps we saw last night should be the resentful souls of the people who were executed more than 2,000 years ago, and this is where they are. ”
Tong Xiangyu said: "In this broad daylight, let's go to the place we went last night to have a look!" ”
I got out of the tree and went with the two of them to the place where I had been last night, where the weeds were overgrown, and when I lifted the grass, I couldn't see any dry bones or anything like that. The second uncle dug half a foot deep and saw some white bones, some of which were broken into slag, all of which were almost mixed with the soil, but most of them were relatively intact.
The second uncle chose the rest of the places, dug half a foot into the ground in the same way, and saw the same situation. It was a huge undertaking to gather these people together and re-bury them, so I erected a tombstone on the ground, made a few gestures, and said, "Rest in peace, all hard working people!" ”
At this time, Tong Xiangyu suddenly remembered something, and said: "There is a lot of resentment accumulated at the foot of Lishan Mountain, it is difficult to dissipate it at once, you can't say a few polite words like this, they are people who have been divided by five horses, their biggest wish is not to be in a different place, we need to gather them together again to comfort their souls." ”
I said, "There are so many bones here, how do we know who's who?" ”
Tong Xiangyu said: "We can wait until the evening to act, these resentful spirits haunt at night, and I believe they will give us instructions at night." ”
We made a few more shovels, but we still couldn't find the entrance, and finally in the evening, when we raised the bonfire again, the smell came again, and I said, "Hard-working people, don't make fun of us anymore, we will fulfill your wishes, and let you be put together again, please give us some instructions!" ”
The sky is full of stars, a bright moon hangs in the sky, after I finished saying this, a few seconds passed, but there was no reaction, is our sincerity not enough? The three of us stood in a row, each made three bows, and said to them, "Please give us some instructions!" ”
At this moment, the wind was blowing, the dark clouds suddenly covered the sky, the branches and leaves shook violently, and there was a gurgling sound in the distance, from small to large, and we heard more and more distinctly, and I felt that something was coming towards us, so I stared intently in that direction.
I didn't care about it, but when I saw that in the wind, there were countless white spots coming towards us, and when they got closer, I was dumbfounded, all of them were white bones, some only had torsos, walking on the ground, and their heads were floating in the air, and they were approaching us step by step, and the sound came from these things.
They must have heard the three of us talking, so they came to us together. The second uncle said: "Brothers, I'm really sorry for you, we are new to the city, we don't understand anything, if there is anything offended, please forgive me, you can do whatever you want us to do." ”
In an instant, those bones came to us and surrounded us, they kept floating around us, the second uncle looked dull, his eyes were blank, I don't know if he was scared stupid, or deliberately pretending to be crazy and stupid, he suddenly laughed wildly, and then regained his composure, and said: "Hello two, I have been waiting for you for more than 2,000 years, and today I finally see you, we are here in the wind and rain, unattended, no one to worship, there is no place to live, we have no other requirements, I just hope you can bury us again, and don't leave us in a different place. ”
The second uncle's voice was very different from usual, his expression completely changed, it was an expression I had never seen before, he suddenly sat upright on the ground with his legs crossed. Tong Xiangyu said: "I know what's going on, your second uncle was ghosted, and those resentful souls want to express their demands, so they borrow your second uncle's body for use." ”
Listening to what they had to say, we understood what was going on. They were originally building the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, and when it was almost completed, they needed to repair the surrounding hills and erase the traces of construction. There were a lot of stones around, and they used carts to carry them up the mountain, and Qin Shi Huang called many of these peasants over, and they were this group of peasants. Some peasants wanted to escape, caught and beheaded directly, in order to show punishment, Qin Shi Huang directly divided their five horses.
When the construction of these mountains was almost completed, in order to prevent leakage of information and leaking the secrets of the imperial tomb, these people were sentenced to death. For more than 2,000 years, the bones have not been dissolved, and the ghosts have piled up, and they have no extra requirements, only hoping that they can be buried.
After listening to the second uncle's story, I was a little troubled, so many messy bones, which one is a group with which one, it is difficult to distinguish one thing, I asked Tong Xiangyu if there is any advanced technology, Tong Xiangyu has no good way.
At this time, I listened to the second uncle open his mouth and said: "Little brother, you don't have to be embarrassed, how to combine, we know it well, we just need you to re-stitch us together with the damp soil on the ground." ”
I breathed a sigh of relief, this is still simple, the second uncle trembled, and then his whole body was paralyzed, lying on the ground, opened his eyes and said, "What happened just now?" ”
I was about to speak, when the bones that hung in the air suddenly spun violently, and finally scattered in an even row, each mass was a complete body, and I quickly smacked them up with some damp dirt on the ground.
I told me what happened just now, and the second uncle patted his head and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, it turned out that he had been caught by a ghost. My second uncle and I acted separately to see if there were any entrances around, but found that Tong Xiangyu had been staring at the twin trees, and suddenly said to us: "Come and see, there is something on this tree." ”
My second uncle and I ran to her, and she pointed to the bark and said, "Master Chen, why don't you try to hit a shovel on this bark?" ”
