Chapter 0139 An Embroidered Shoe
Not only was I surprised, the big tooth mouth opened and never closed, the person in front of me was very old, with deep wrinkles, and he looked like the kind of old man who was about to enter the earth at the age of seventy or eighty, and the Jin Ye I had seen before was less than fifty, and his hair was also black and shiny.
Jin Ye looked at me and smiled, "No wonder you have such a big reaction, even I was startled." ”
"Master Jin, what happened?"
Jin Ye didn't speak, but took out a box from behind him, it was a box made of sandalwood, it was very exquisite, the box was engraved with patterns, and the street lamps in the dark market were a little dark, so there was no way to see what was carved on it.
Jin Ye put the box in front of me and sighed, "It should be retribution, I have been reselling yin goods all these years, although I have made enough money, I have also offended a lot of yin spirits, this time, I almost planted it." ”
"Planted?"
I didn't rush to touch the box, Jin Ye's Taoism in this area is many times higher than mine, and even Jin Ye can't handle things, in case I run into trouble, Jin Ye's so-called planting, is to cause trouble, so I am very careful.
Jin Ye was happy, he should have seen my thoughts, "Don't be afraid, although this thing is troublesome, it is not impossible to control her." After Jin Ye finished speaking, he reached out and opened the lid on the wooden box.
I leaned over to look at it, and I thought there would be porcelain or jade inside, but I didn't expect it to be a shoe, a woman's shoe, which looked a little out of place in such a box.
It's just an ordinary shoe, and I can't see anything too special, but the most eye-catching thing is the three talismans attached to it.
These three talismans were completely different from the ones I usually painted, not the kind of yellow paper sold in the pottery, but very old ones, and the paper was already brown.
"What's in there?"
Jin Ye nodded, "This thing was given to me by a friend who had known him for decades before he died, and he already knew that he was going to die, and he was worried that this thing would harm his family, so he came to beg me to help him." ”
"He knew he was going to die?"
Jin Ye nodded, "There are many things that are destined in the dark. Jin Ye carefully closed the lid, "You must be curious to know why I became the way I am!" ”
I nodded, "What does it have to do with that shoe inside?" ”
"Nope." Jin Ye looked at me after speaking, that expression was very strange, probably because he had grown old all of a sudden, the wrinkles on his face were very deep, it turned out that Jin Ye was this virtue after he got old, "This matter has something to do with you." ”
"And me?"
I was stunned for a moment, Jin Ye kept looking at me, and at that moment, Jin Ye's expression suddenly became a little solemn.
After Jin Ye said this, I looked at Jin Ye with incredible eyes, if it wasn't for the voice and title, I really couldn't believe it, he was the person I had always known, with wrinkles on his face and gray hair, the gap between the two was too big.
"Can you open it and let me see it again?" I said, pointing to the wooden box on the ground.
Jin Ye nodded, "Of course, this thing was originally yours." ”
"Mine?"
I was immediately alert, Jin Ye's deep Taoism has suffered losses, doing our business can be said to be full of crises, if you don't get it right, you will fall into the bureau designed by others, and then the family will be ruined, so you must always be careful and vigilant, even Jin Ye can't fully believe it.
In these years, the people who pit are all their own people.
Therefore, I have to be careful enough, it's a big deal to turn around and leave, even if I cut off Jin Ye's door, I still can't starve to death with my ability, not to mention the state in front of Jin Ye, I'm afraid it won't last long.
Jin Ye was happy, "When you know the origin of this thing, you will definitely be interested." ”
The box slowly opened, and I took a closer look, this time because it was related to me, so I looked very carefully, and what was placed in the box was actually a woman's embroidered shoes.
"Embroidered shoes!"
When I was a child, I heard a lot of horror stories about embroidered shoes told by the old people in the town, many of them were caused by love and hatred and finally caused a tragedy, and I still vaguely remember one of the stories:
In 1948, in a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, men in the prime of life were all conscripted into the army, and the rest were disabled men, old and weak women and children. The bizarre death of the coachman Ding Dashan in the broken temple broke the peace of this water town, judging from the six-and-a-half-inch shoe prints and an embroidered shoe left at the scene, the focus of the suspect fell on Su Er, who is famous for embroidery.
The case was eventually considered to be adultery and murder, and the old-fashioned squires led the villagers to frantically put Su Er to death by "immersing himself in a pig cage", and Su Er died, leaving behind a pair of minor children.
Since then, there have been a series of life cases in the water town, first the wife of Cheng Nan, who was weaving a pig cage, was pierced through the heart by a bamboo piece and died, and then the squire died mysteriously, and the terrifying clouds shrouded the countryside, and what is even more incredible is that someone actually saw Su Er appear in the water town at night.
I can't remember how it was solved later, anyway, it sounded very scary at the time, but now that I think about it, the person was definitely not killed by Su Er, he was drowned for no reason, because the resentment could not be eliminated, so he turned into a ghost and came back to ask for his life.
Jin Ye coughed, "See what the doorway is?" ”
I shook my head, "No one wears this kind of thing now, Master Jin, where did that friend of yours get this thing?" Why does this thing have anything to do with me? ”
I know that Jin Ye won't talk nonsense, even if he wants to trick me into getting things away, at least I can find other more suitable reasons, for example, it is very valuable, and this alone is enough to make me tempted.
Jin Ye looked at me, "I've already said it, that rouge box!" ”
"Rouge box?" I frowned, the rouge box was in the bag, and I didn't bring it out, "There is a female ghost living in the rouge box." ”
"Only so many?" Jin Ye looked at me, his eyes were very strange, when the box passed through Jin Ye's hand, it must have been clear that there were female ghosts in his Taoism.
I nodded, "The strangest thing is the pattern inside, Jin Ye should have seen it." ”
"Pattern!" Jin Ye nodded, "What happened?" ”
I didn't want to hide it, because I also wanted to know the secret inside, "The pattern inside will change, and now I can't figure out which one is the original pattern." ”
"That's right." Jin Ye sat down slowly after speaking, "When I got the rouge box, I also thought it was weird, but fortunately, the things in it were not fierce, and I was also old, that thing is more suitable for you young people, and I am not afraid to tell you that my friend is engaged in the business of inverted buckets, because of years of friendship, some things will be put here for me to help him sell." ”
"That rouge box was stolen from the tomb?" Indeed, I am already very sure, when Jin Ye sold it, he told me that I was a yin product, and it was just out of the yang.
Jin Ye sighed, "Yes, I am in this business, and I have been a friend for many years, I can help if I can, and I don't want to ask about many things, until he finds me again, at that time he was very anxious, because several people who went to the tomb with him died one after another bizarre violent deaths, he told me that the next one must be his turn, and he was worried that it would harm his family, so he told me this secret." ”
I simply sat down, this story must be very long, since it is related to me, I simply listened to it, and I was also curious why Jin Ye made it like this.
Big Tooth is bored and walks around, it should be to see if there is anything worth selling, Big Tooth is very diligent, and whenever he has time, he reads some antique books, which is a good thing, and it will definitely be useful in the future.
"When they went down to the tomb, they opened one of the coffins, and when the coffin opened, the torches and candles in the hands of several people who went down to the tomb were extinguished at once.
It's a pity that these people haven't touched a tomb that they can do for more than a year, and they have a tight hand, so they do it ruthlessly. ”
"What's in the coffin?" I asked Jin Ye.
Jin Ye took a deep breath, "There is only that box and a shoe, the coffin must have been moved, and those who often turn upside down know that these things are worthless, anyway, they also moved, so they simply brought it out, and after they came out, the rouge box was placed here with me, and because there was only one pair of shoes, they simply put it in the basement where they lived, and then there were accidents one after another." ”
