Chapter 461: The Nest in the Cracks
A man, a man with long hair and waist, a modern man with long hair and waist, and a modern man with long hair and waist that has been dead for no more than half a year.
The red rope that may have come from the Yiwu small commodity wholesale market proves that this person is at least a modern person, and modern men rarely grow hair except for those who are engaged in art or have great personality, and it is such a length.
Half a year ago, there was a long hair and waist-length wearing ancient jade who found here?
Cha Wenbin shook his head and denied this answer, after Leng Yiran fell in, the periphery of that entrance was overgrown with weeds, not like a place where people had moved, unless there were other entrances he didn't know about.
Although he couldn't remember many things, he could still remember how he got to that forked intersection, and then he vaguely remembered that he met Zhuoxiong, and then he felt a terrible headache when he thought about it.
The water-soaked hair had begun to have moss, and when he grabbed it, it was messy and unkempt, and he could imagine that if he had stood before him alive, he would have been recognized as a wild man. Because the beard on his chin and lips was a palm's length, the man probably hadn't groomed himself for a long time.
Except for the jade ring, there was no one around the dead body who could prove his identity, Cha Wenbin frowned and lit a candle to check the dead body with a high ** height from top to bottom. Except for the huge wound on his belly caused by the bite of those maggots, Cha Wenbin did not find any fatal injuries on the skin alone. Judging from the jet-black hair, this person is not very old, about the same age as Cha Wenbin estimated, but he found a lot of aquatic plants and mud in his nostrils.
"Drowned," Cha Wenbin said to himself. He had touched the drowned people, and his daughter was also drowned. The easiest way to identify the cause of death of a body floating in the water is to look at the nostrils and lungs, and if they were alive before falling into the water, people will choke on water. Out of the instinct of survival, people struggle in the water to roll up the silt and aquatic weeds at the bottom of the river, and oppressive breathing will allow these silt to enter the human respiratory tract, which is not the case with people who die first and then fall into the water. At that time, Cha Wenbin's daughter drowned in the river, and her entire throat and nostrils were blocked with a black aquatic weed, which was often fished up and dried in the local area, which was an indispensable raw material for making "yellow table paper", so the death of his daughter originally carried an unusual evil smell.
By the river, Cha Wenbin used rocks to build a grave at will, so that he would not be in the wilderness, so that at least he could feel better if he took other people's things.
Pressed a stack of paper money on the pile of stones, Cha Wenbin lit a stick of incense and said: "Go into the soil for peace, I will take your piece of jade first, and in the future it will be used as a voucher for your family to find you, if you have any last words that have not been completed, you will drag a dream to me at night." ”
turned around, with a "snap", the stone that was originally pressed with the paper money fell for some reason, and the paper money that was originally pressed was blown by a gust of wind and flew wildly, Cha Wenbin stopped and looked back, the incense that had just been lit had been extinguished. In the face of such a strange scene, Cha Wenbin even showed a smile on his face, he took out the jade pendant from his arms and said: "If you don't bring it in life, you don't bring it in death, and if you can't put it down, it's just a cup of loess in the end." Don't let that greedy heart mess with your stinky skin and dirty this jade. ”
With a "boom", a cold light flashed from the Seven Star Sword, and a piece of paper money that was fluttering was divided in half......
Cha Wenbin felt that his body was also very weak, and he had just drunk water that he had no time to replenish and vomited out, and he lost water instead of replenishing water, so he walked to a little upstream and lay down and poured a few sips until he had a few full burps.
After washing his face, he slapped his cheeks with both hands and said, "You can always hold on for a while, and you have to find someone to succeed." ”
Walking along this underground undercurrent is his only choice at present, and the pebbles on the river beach can make a "squeak" sound with every step, and the huge underground world will also "snort" with it, as if he is dissatisfied with him as an uninvited guest.
Cha Wenbin is an extremely sensitive person, he can feel that there is something following him not far from him, he walks it, he stops it, and always keeps a distance of about ten meters. The sword in his hand had trembled more than once, this was a warning to its owner before encountering the evil thing, or it was its excited battle intent.
Like the killing blade, this magic weapon used to ward off evil spirits and defeat ghosts will also be contaminated with anger if it kills ghosts, whether it is a person or a ghost, the end is only its consciousness existence in the yang or underworld, in the final analysis, it is still killing. Cha Wenbin is a person who is unwilling to kill, under the sign of doing the right thing for heaven without asking the reason, he will cut off the ghost when he sees it, he thinks that it is no different from a butcher.
The Taoist is based on morality, the cultivation method is not for the purpose of subduing demons and eliminating demons, and the practice of the five elements of gossip is not for feng shui divination, these things were originally established to let people understand the world and understand their own hearts. Through this understanding, man and nature can be seamlessly integrated, and the application of Taoism will be brought to a higher level. In the final analysis, being a Taoist priest is not to practice the Tao, but to cultivate the Tao, and to cultivate the Tao must first cultivate virtue.
He patted his saber lightly and said, "Be quiet for a while, ghosts and wild ghosts." ”
It's no wonder that I'm staring at other people's treasures, but the cold taste behind me is really not very pleasant. A new ghost can't do anything to him, and he can beat him with anything he can never turn over.
It would be good to wait for the insight to see the light, Cha Wenbin thought in his heart.
"Gollum," he screamed, "I guess the raw water just now went bad." Cha Wenbin said while holding his stomach.
There is a big stone not far away, Cha Wenbin is thinking about touching it there to solve it, although the Taoist family is outside, they should also pay attention to staying away from water sources. It is convenient to dig a small pit by hand, and after a while, it is really bad, and I squatted with my head down and secretly felt that my body was getting worse and worse, and it was not a good sign to have diarrhea in the wild, and this seemingly simple problem made people quickly prostrate.
There are some pills in his arms, these are based on the folk earthworks, usually someone is ill to find him to exorcise evil spirits, if that person is really sick, Cha Wenbin will give someone a little medicine made by himself. If the family has money and is sick, they will have been sent to the hospital long ago, and a few people will think about finding a Taoist priest in these years, and there are only two kinds of Taoist priests: one is that it has not been cured for a long time, and the symptoms of evil are obvious; There is also a poor person who can't open the pot, and the dead horse is regarded as a live horse doctor, hoping that the fairy rune water can save people and cure diseases.
In rural areas, most of the people who go to Cha Wenbin for health reasons are the latter, and at that time, there was no universal medical insurance, and a small illness could put the whole family's food rations in the hospital for a year. Because of these, Cha Wenbin always has some Chinese herbs and earthy recipes, among which this small pill made of chicken gizzard skin, tea leaves and incense ash is indeed miraculous in treating diarrhea.
After taking two pills, he was about to get up and continue his journey, but he casually looked up, and a trace of reflection flashed in the darkness in the distance. There was a faint flash, but it didn't escape his eyes. It was a crack between the rocks, and if it wasn't for the light, he wouldn't really have noticed.
The crack is more than one meter high from the ground, and there are several large stones under it in the form of steps, the gap is more than half a meter wide, about forty centimeters high, and it can barely get into a person. Take the fire fold to climb the steps and look inside, the depth is about two meters, the ground is covered with hay, and a few stones are scattered inside, and there is a set of khaki tunics that were more popular in the 80s of the last century, and the reflection is issued by a badge on the head of the tunic.
Take off the brooch and take a look, the material used to make things in the past is really good enough, there is no rust at all, and a few large bronzing characters are printed under a layer of transparent plastic: Second Archaeological Institute.
Cha Wenbin has really seen this thing, in Chaozi's house, there used to be such a brooch in He Lao's study; Ten years ago, when Lao Wang first arrived at the General's Temple, almost all of the young men he brought were wearing such brooches, which was the work card of the Provincial Institute of Archaeology!
How did this stuff end up here? Picking up the garment, Cha Wenbin checked it, it was very worn, and when he continued to lean in, he suddenly found that the walls on both sides of the gap were covered with lines painted with white stones. What surprised him even more was that he found an iron jar containing some kind of ointment, the edge of which was charred and blackened by the fire, and when he took it out, there were still a few red words on the jar, among which the two sons of "archaeology" were particularly easy to recognize.
On the side of the jar were a few black stones and a handful of hay, which we call "fire stone" in our area, and two stones collided with each other to create a spark, which I played with when I was a child. There are also quite a few tools for polishing various stones, among which there are sharper ones that are no less sharp than daggers.
The chilling feeling behind him was still there, and there was a tendency to get closer, Cha Wenbin withdrew from the crack and looked back: This should be the place where the dead body lived, right?
