Chapter 11: The Fog Rises
Lin Ye and I met, in a teahouse in the city, sitting there, Lin Ye said for a long time.
"Dezi, if you don't do this, no one can do it."
"Lin Ye, I also tell you the truth, if I could do it, I wouldn't come here, if I did, there would be a possibility of death, not to mention, the ghost flower is already dead, who asked you to touch the ghost flower? As a direct leader, a supervisor, can't you take care of it? ”
"I asked the experts, and they said there was no problem, and there was no connection with the drum coffin."
"Lin Ye, I didn't expect that when you were in the county, you were very smart, and this time you came to the city, it became like this? I think you're too careful, I'll tell you a word about this, I may not be able to do it, when I will do it, I'm not sure. ”
I'm going to be angry, and I'm going to make everyone angry.
Some of the people in the small town left, and the county magistrate He did the work of appeasing and not letting them leave the small town, which is right, if there is really something to do and then leave, there is no problem.
The drum coffin is going to drum day by day, step by step, and I know that sooner or later it will reach an outbreak, and I'm afraid it will be more powerful than last time.
The fourth uncle called me, and he came out of the mountains.
"Dezi, I'm in a small town, let's discuss this matter."
It seems that this year is a serious matter, otherwise the fourth uncle would not have consulted with me.
I went back to the town, but it was quiet, the tour stopped, and the tourists were gone.
My fourth uncle and I were drinking in a small backstreet town, and there were not many restaurants for small wines.
"Dezi, I thought about this, we still have to take care of it, otherwise the small city will really become a dead city in the future, and the small city that has lived all my life is also an ancient city, otherwise it would be a pity."
"That's the same idea for me, it's just that the ghost flower is gone, and that's the terrible thing."
"We drank, and it got dark after drinking, and after dark, we went to the house of the Tatans."
I drank with my fourth uncle, and we didn't talk about the drum coffin anymore.
It was dark, I went over with the fourth uncle, there were still people guarding, and the fourth uncle and I were stopped, and the person said to call for instructions.
I waited outside with my fourth uncle, and a few minutes later, the man came over and said, County Magistrate He will come over in a while.
I glanced at the fourth uncle, he didn't speak, lit a stick of incense and sat aside.
"The last thing I like is this guy."
"You don't have to think about it so much, it's just a different angle, there's nothing."
Maybe the fourth uncle was right, I didn't say anything, the county magistrate He didn't come for an hour, and the fourth uncle and I went down the mountain and went back to live in my house.
I went back with the fourth uncle, and slept, the small city is like an empty city at the moment, although many people did not leave, but they are ready to go, the county magistrate He called, it seems that it is to the house of the people of the Yao, none of us answered.
I absolutely don't like He Shan, maybe from a different angle, but he does things for people, and he is completely incompatible with me, and it is difficult to get along.
When we got up in the morning and had breakfast, my fourth uncle and I went up the mountain again, but we still needed to wait for the county magistrate, but he still didn't come, and he didn't come for an hour.
The fourth uncle and I went back to Teacher Zhao's house, didn't speak, each thought about their own things, the sound of the drum coffin was always ringing, and it was sad to hear it, if it goes on like this, I'm afraid there will be big problems.
Lin Ye called, and I answered.
"I'm here, you guys come here."
"I'm sorry, we can't get by, we have something."
I don't want to go over, He Shan's behavior has made me and the fourth uncle very unhappy, such a disagreement, even if we open the drum coffin, we will also encounter trouble, if we don't get it right, and get a crime of destroying cultural relics, go to prison, this is not a fun thing, no one wants to play.
Lin Ye came, came in, sat down and said.
"He Shan has been transferred, I'll take care of things here."
I glanced at the forest leaves.
"If you go out of this county, you shouldn't take care of this county anymore."
"I'm most familiar with this place, I don't care who cares?"
Lin Ye is also angry, and he can hear it.
"Ask the fourth uncle about this, this is a fatal thing, no matter what, we have to risk death."
"I know that, I'll be with you."
"That's another story."
"Then I'll tell you the truth, I'm back to act as the county magistrate of this county, let me deal with this matter within two days, and don't let the people of the small city enter the city."
I looked at Lin Ye and didn't speak, and the fourth uncle kept his eyes closed.
I know that the fourth uncle is unhappy, and he doesn't have a good impression of Lin Ye.
The fourth uncle opened his eyes and said.
"Let's go."
We went to the house of the Yan people, the drum coffin was still there, but the pond was nothing, we went in, after a while, the drum coffin stopped ringing, and the fourth uncle looked at me. I know that means because of my presence, maybe.
The drum coffin really can't find a mouth, it's completely one.
The fourth uncle sat on a stone in the pond and looked at the water, the green water, he didn't speak all the time, and I looked at the drum coffin.
Suddenly, the pond fogged up, and it spread out little by little, and the fourth uncle stood up, it was more than nine o'clock in September, how could this be? This is definitely an anomaly.
"Dezi, get out immediately."
We went out, the staff all came out, and the gate closed.
The fourth uncle called me aside and whispered.
"Let's go, remember, we're going to go in in a moment, maybe we'll leave it here, of course, you can't go in, I'm not a wizard."
"Then don't go in."
"That's a coffin, I'm at least a grave worm, maybe I can help you."
We walked to the door, Lin Ye said.
"I can be with you, or I can do something."
"Your task is not to let anyone in, but we will not come out, and of course, if we don't come out at dawn the next day, you will have to go in."
"I want to send an expert to follow up, and I'll follow up."
"Don't make a mess."
The fog had already come out of the crack in the door, and the fourth uncle and I went in and closed the door, the fog was very heavy, and it was impossible to see people clearly for one meter or two.
The fourth uncle didn't speak, I followed the fourth uncle and walked slowly inside, towards the pond, the fourth uncle walked slowly, it seemed to be very nervous.
I was also nervous, to the pond, the drum coffin was placed there, there was a flower blooming in the pond, the fourth uncle shouted, took a few steps back, I was stunned, I didn't expect the ghost flower to bloom, it suddenly appeared.
Suddenly, the fog thickened, and there was no room for face-to-face.
"Dezi, don't you want to run."
"I won't run, you just don't run."
I was stunned in my heart, the fourth uncle should also be uneasy, I didn't expect the ghost flower to suddenly bloom again.
The drum coffin sounded, I stood there and didn't move, and the fourth uncle probably didn't move.
"Fourth Uncle, Fourth Uncle......"
The fourth uncle didn't say anything, I was furious, the fourth uncle didn't speak, I called the fourth uncle, still didn't speak, I stepped back, retreated to the door, and called the fourth uncle while retreating.
The fourth uncle still didn't answer, so I retreated to the door and stood there still.
The fog is getting heavier and heavier, and the fourth uncle doesn't answer, I think something is wrong.
I stood in the doorway shivering, looking like I was in trouble.
The fog slowly dissipated, the fourth uncle was gone, the drum coffin was gone, I was stupid, the fog dispersed quickly, there was no more at all, I opened the door, Lin Ye and a few people came in, I was stunned there.
"Where's the drum coffin?"
I shook my head, this is gone, what the hell is going on? The ghost flower is gone, as if what happened here has never happened.
I went out immediately, Lin Ye called me, I ignored her, I went to Uncle Hongshi's house, no, still no, I think something bad happened, maybe it was because of the drum coffin.
I moved the witch in the fourth uncle's house, looking for the fourth uncle, I couldn't find it, there was no news at all, I thought, this time it's really bad, the drum coffin has not made the sound of the drum beating, no, how I don't want to hear the sound of the drum coffin, I just want to hear it at the moment, but no, one day, two days, three days have passed, I am completely anxious, Lin Ye also asked people to find it, and still can't find it.
I went to the city to look for Mei Mei, and told Mei Mei that the witch was not found, and I thought it was a completely bad thing this time.
"Brother, it's really troublesome."
"yes."
"I'll go with you to the house of the Tatan."
Now it can only be like this, I need Mei Mei's help, I went to the house of the Yan people with Mei Mei, stood by the pond, looked at the pond, all Qi Qi Qi was very calm, I couldn't see any change at all, I talked about the situation, Mei Mei thought for a long time.
"Move the Great Witch."
I don't want to move the big witch, it's very troublesome, and there is a problem all of a sudden, and it hurts my body.
Mei Mei looked at me, and I shook my head in disagreement.
"What else can she do?"
I knew there was no way out, so I called Lin Ye over.
"Drain the pond?"
Lin Ye was stunned for a moment, looking for someone to pump water, the water in the pond was drained, the water was drained, it was all silt, there was nothing, I was very disappointed, it seems that it is impossible to move the big witch.
I want to wait, I'm afraid I can't wait.
It's not a trivial matter, I discussed with Mei Mei, and finally decided to move Da Wu, I let people go out, and Mei Mei moved Da Wu.
Mei Mei and I were moving in the room, and the fog suddenly rose, and Mei Mei glanced at me.
"It's fine."
We are looking for the fourth uncle.
I didn't find it, I stopped witching, and the fog was so big that I couldn't see anyone.
The fog is getting bigger and bigger, and there is no witch stopping, and when I get charming, I shake it, and I hold it, and I feel distressed.
I helped Mei Mei to feel the chair and sat down, and the fog was getting bigger and bigger.
"Meimei, you're witching here, I'll go out and have a look."
I went out, I felt it, I turned it back again, I felt that something was wrong, no, I couldn't make Mei Mei go out anymore, I helped Mei Mei out, and there was no fog outside.
Lin Ye asked me.
"Don't say it, send Meimei to the hospital, I'll go in."
I went in again, the fog cleared, the fourth uncle and the drum coffin turned out to be by the pond, I froze, my name is the fourth uncle.
The fourth uncle actually came.
"What's wrong?"
"What's wrong?"
I asked rhetorically, stupid.
"What's wrong with you?"
I pulled the fourth uncle out, and Lin Ye and they were startled when they saw it.
I told the story, the fourth uncle looked at me in a daze, didn't speak for a long time, and the fourth uncle seemed like nothing had happened.
The fourth uncle sat down to smoke, and when such a situation occurred, he had to think about it and know what was happening. The fourth uncle stood up, didn't say a word, entered the house, I followed up, plugged the door, the fourth uncle walked to the coffin, looked at it for a while, jumped into the pond, and went straight to the ghost flower, I was stunned to look, the fourth uncle went over, and took it off directly.
When the ghost flower was plucked, the juice that flowed out turned out to be blood, bright red, red juice, flowing down from the fourth uncle's hands and arms, dripping.
I pulled the fourth uncle up.
"Dezi, put the flowers on the coffin."
I took the ghost flower, it smelled of blood, and it was still dripping with blood, and the fourth uncle saw that I was done and said.
"Get out right away."
We went out, closed the door, I didn't know what was going to happen inside, my heart was tight.
