Chapter Seventy-Three: The Sand of the Human Face
I saw that the stone carved human face slowly floated from the ground, and the surrounding sand continued to fly in the air as if it had been swept up by the wind.
People stared at us with weird smiles on their faces, and their mouths kept emitting eerie laughs, as if they were laughing at us for running away.
The laughter echoed in our ears like thunder, and the golden sand flew faster and faster.
I don't know what the reason is, but suddenly there was a strong wind around.
It was calm just now, but now it's like a typhoon, the wind is sweeping the sand and hovering in the sky, and the trees around me are bent down by the strong wind.
"Is this a movie? Legend of Gods and Ghosts One? Lao Song trembled and pointed to the faces in the sky and said: "The more this situation looks, the more it looks like the scene in the mummy movie, it's terrible!" ”
The wind swirled around the sand, and in a short time it formed something like a tornado.
The sky was covered by sand and the sun disappeared from view.
On the outside of the tornado, a huge human face appeared, staring at us with a grim eye, opening its huge mouth and following the wind towards us!
"Hurry up, find a place to hide! Run! Dad looked at this man's face and tears were about to come out, and shouted at us, "Don't be eaten by it!" Run! ”
After hearing Dad's roar, we didn't dare to slack off, so we quickly turned around and ran.
Perhaps it is because of the tall trees in this jungle, and many of the wind and sand are blocked by the trees.
I turned my face and casually looked, and the huge human face was almost in the sky behind us, and it was over! It's time to catch up! Where to hide!
Just as I was at a loss, the GI yelled "Quick! There's a dirt pit here! Come on in! ”
We followed the sound and saw that there was a dirt pit in the jungle next to us, about two meters deep.
The surrounding bushes covered the pit, and none of us could have seen it unless the GIs had seen it.
The laughter grew louder and louder, and without saying a word, we jumped in with the GI and lay down at the bottom of the pit.
"Don't move! Get on your stomach! As soon as we heard my father say this, a gust of wind whistled above us, and a huge human face swept over us with overwhelming yellow sand.
At such times, no one dared to move at will, and we lay motionless like dead people, and the sound of our breathing was muffled.
After about ten minutes, the wind and sand seemed to gradually move away from us, and the wind gradually stopped.
Xiao Budian didn't come out after encountering the sand in the human face, and kept hiding in my pocket, and slowly crawled out when the danger passed.
It seems that it is also afraid of this damn thing, if nothing else, the size of the sand human face alone is too scary.
"My dear mother, this thing is going to kill people!" The fat man's face trembled palely, and he looked up at the sky and said tremblingly, "This face is too big, isn't it?" If we were enemies of this thing, we probably wouldn't know how we would die! ”
Dad sat up with a calm face, patted the sand on his body with his hand and said, "This thing is really impossible to deal with, there are still fairies and goblins who can't move!" I can't help this thing. ”
When we heard my dad say this, our hearts slowly sank, are we going to die here?
Even Dad said so, what hope do we have?
Maybe I was used to being scared, but I didn't feel scared at all, so I sat up and took out a cigarette and threw it to them, and lit one myself: "It seems that we are in danger this time." ”
"I've heard that." We smoked cigarettes and didn't speak, and the atmosphere became oppressive, and at this moment, Miko suddenly said, "That's human face sand." ”
Human-faced sand? What is it? The third son knew about this thing?
"What's going on! Tell us about it! I hurriedly grabbed Miko's shoulder and shook it and asked, "Is there a weakness?" What should we do? ”
Sanzi smiled bitterly and shook his head: "There's no weakness, I just know what this thing is." ”
According to what the third son told us, the first time this thing appeared was in the Qing Dynasty.
During the Qing Dynasty, the number of believers in Buddhism could not be counted, and the high-ranking monks in the court and the opposition did not know the geometry, and the demons and evil spirits in the world did not dare to easily mutilate ordinary people.
But even so, after Aisin Jueluo Fulin ascended the throne, a terrifying thing happened.
At that time, it was the first year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty, and after Fulin ascended the throne, he built a temple in the west of the Wanquan River in Shenyang, which is now the Ci'en Temple in Shenyang, Liaoning.
Why did only one hall be built back then and then stopped? Why wait until the first year of the Republic of China to complete the construction? There's something hidden in that.
When Fulin built the temple, he dug the ground to prepare for the foundation, which was okay if he didn't dig it, but he was dumbfounded when he dug it.
The earth was full of sand, not a single piece of dirt, and it was golden, like a grain of golden sand.
At that time, the overseer reported this matter to Emperor Fulin, calling it "auspicious from the sky, and the golden sand covers the top." ”
When Emperor Fulin heard this, he was overjoyed and rewarded the overseer with three thousand taels of silver, telling him to collect all the sand and store it in the treasury.
When the overseer heard this, ouch! Fat difference! These three thousand taels were given away for nothing? After getting the money, without saying a word, he called a group of people and began to dig out the golden sands little by little.
Coincidentally, at this time, there was a wandering monk who came here, and when he heard that a temple was going to be built, he was ready to settle down here.
When I went to the site of the temple construction, I was shocked when I saw these golden sands, and told these people to stop and bury the sand.
The overseer was not happy when he heard it, what is the matter with you to intervene when Lao Tzu makes money? After calling a few of his men, he prepared to send the monk away.
This monk is not leaving, and if they want to bury the golden sands back, how can the overseer agree?
He threatened the monk and let the officers and soldiers arrest him if he didn't leave.
Seeing that no one listened to their own words, and asked the officers and soldiers to arrest themselves, the monk had no choice but to leave, and before leaving, he said a word: "This sand is extraordinary sand, there are demons in the sand, all the kings break the ground, and when the golden sand sees the sky, it is the day when the evil disaster comes." The evil spirit in the sand is soaring, it will definitely cause a catastrophe, and the people here are bitter, bitter, Amitabha."
At that time, everyone present took what the monk said as a joke.
When the monk left, they continued to dig the sand, but no one expected that after a few days, these people would regret not listening to the monk.
The excavated golden sands were packed in wooden boxes and transported to the palace in horse-drawn wagons. There wasn't a lot of sand in the ground, and it was almost finished with seven or eight boxes.
When the overseer saw that he had finished digging the sands, he called the people present back to rest, and brought them into the palace in a carriage the next morning.
As a result, when the next day came to count the sands, they were dumbfounded.
