Chapter 3: The Lost Grave
Chapter 3: The Lost Grave
Whenever it rains, there will be a cry from inside the tomb. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 The loud voice was sometimes strong and weak, and the strongest one was heard by the villagers of two or three surrounding villages. Everyone was terrified, thinking that some great catastrophe was going to happen.
As a result, something really happened later, and in Wazi Village, the houses of seven or eight families were inexplicably burned by the fire. And when these houses were burned, it wasn't dry weather, which is quite strange. If it's a dry day, it's understandable that the house is on fire, and it may be impossible for any child to accidentally lead it.
It seems that since then, people here have begun to have the habit of sacrificing graves. According to the older generation in the village, as long as there is no sacrifice in any year, there will be a disaster in that year!
Of course, these things, at least decades ago. It's really hard to get it right now. With the development of modernization in recent years, everyone has begun to believe in science, and they have gradually forgotten about this grave sacrifice.
But the fuse of the matter was two years ago. In that year, Chen Yongfu, a villager from Wazi Village, made a fortune and decided to build a large house in the village. He invited Mr. (a local practitioner of rituals, which is different from the usual "sir"). I think the locals call them "sir" out of respect) to come and see the foundation, to find a piece of feng shui treasure so that they can still make money in the future.
Chose and chosen, and finally chose the foundation in front of this murderous grave. There is a local saying: Yin presses yang, and generations are strong; Yang presses yin, squatting from generation to generation.
The "yin" here refers to the dead, while the "yang" refers to the living. The meaning of this sentence is: if the yin people live behind the yang people, then among the descendants, one generation will be richer than the other; Conversely, if the Yang person lives behind the Yin person, then the generation is worse than the other!
And choosing the place where people live in front of the tomb is for this sentence.
When construction began, it was fine. But later, when the stone breaker was crushing the rooting stone in the foundation, due to the driver's mistake, the manganese steel drill bit of the stone breaker actually knocked down this murderous grave!
Everyone was shocked! It's just that everyone's fear of this centuries-old murderous grave is not much now! They knew that it was a murderous grave, and they had heard it from their parents, and even from their grandparents when they were young.
Since he had caused a catastrophe, Chen Yongfu was ruthless, and simply didn't believe in this evil, so he directly dug up this murderous grave and changed it into his own backyard.
On that day, when the huge bucket shovel of the excavator removed the grave soil, the villagers present were dumbfounded!
Inside the tomb, there was nothing! This turned out to be an empty tomb!
After everyone was stunned for a while, they just laughed out loud. It turns out that the ancestors have been worried about something for hundreds of years, but there is nothing!
This time, Chen Yongfu dug with confidence. A few months later, a beautiful rural villa appeared here. And the murderous grave that has been passed down for hundreds of years has gradually been forgotten.
But that's not the end of it! Just two months after Chen Yongfu moved into his new home, his family's cattle suddenly died. He was sad for a while, thinking that he had been poisoned by some cattle thief.
It's not surprising that he thinks so. This kind of thing happens a lot in the countryside.
Farmers will basically have a very loyal guard and friend. That's the dog! If a thief sneaks into the house or even the village at night, the dogs of the whole village will bark incessantly. In the early days, this was a disaster for cattle thieves. Moreover, some trained dogs also have very strong tracking ability, which makes it difficult for them to escape.
But later, these thieves also thought of a way to deal with it, that is, to put highly toxic pesticides such as methamidophos and dichlorvos in the meat and throw them to the guards of the dogs. If these pesticides fall on the forage of cattle and horses, they can also be poisoned.
Chen Yongfu was so sad that he could only sell the dead cattle to a dealer for 400 yuan. If the cow is alive, then its value is at least six thousand. It's no wonder if it's more than ten times degraded in an instant, and it's not sad.
And when the dealers broke down the beef, they were horrified to find that the cow, which was intact on the outside, had no internal organs!
This is the first wonder in the world!
This matter also quickly reached Chen Yongfu's ears. How could he not be shocked when something strange happened to his own cow? Then he remembered the murderous grave. Could it be that he has offended this fierce god?
He spent a few thousand dollars and invited Mr. to come and check the feng shui. What the hell went wrong.
After looking at his foundation, the gentleman shook his head again and again, and said nothing, except to ask him to build a stone mill and place it on the former murderous grave. And a copper bottle was tied with a red silk thread and hung on the stone mill. Before leaving, he kept telling him: The copper bottle must not fall to the ground!
Strange to say! From then on, there was really nothing going on in his house! The annual income is also getting higher and higher every year. This matter has been forgotten again!
For more than a year, how can the thin red silk thread withstand the wind and rain and the sun?
This is not? A few days ago, the silk thread broke without warning, and the copper bottle fell to the ground!
Something happened!
On the day the copper bottle landed, blood flowed strangely from the stone mill!
This kind of stone mill is an agricultural tool in ancient China, which is often used to grind corn and other things. But since the crusher, small steel mill and other machinery came out, it has gradually been replaced.
I've seen this kind of thing in other places before. To be honest, its structure is quite delicate, and I, a modern person, have to admire the skill of the ancient craftsmen. The stone mill can be roughly divided into three parts, the main body is two round cake-shaped stones, and the lower one has a slightly simpler structure, except for the artificially carved teeth on the occlusal surface, there is only a square hole in the middle. In addition to the teeth on the occlusal surface, the upper one also has a funnel that runs through the stone plate.
When assembling, a piece of hardwood with a round bottom is passed through two stone discs, and one of them is fixed to the support. There are three holes in the crossbar, and the middle hole is for the hardwood shaft to pass through, so that the upper stone mill rotates around the shaft.
When grinding, corn is put into the funnel of a stone disc above, and after being ground by the rotating grinding disc, it comes out of the gap between the two grinding discs and falls evenly around the stone disc.
Unlike the stone mill depicted in the book, which resembles the front wheels of a road roller, this one is relatively lightweight. At that time, several villagers told me that among their ancestors, those who had great strength could directly carry a grinding disc in one hand and ride on a horse to play like a ball. I'm ashamed, with my small body, I have to do my best to push and grind, let alone lift the grinding disc.
And today, I saw this thing again. What was the first impression I had on my part?
It seemed to be putting people in the funnel of the stone mill. When a person is ground, flesh flows out from between the two grinding discs!
