Chapter 36: Coffin Mountain Town (2)
The minibus did not stop again on the way, except for a quarter of an hour in a service area of the highway for everyone's convenience.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, the tour group arrived at the town of Coffin Mountain.
After settling the group members, the female tour guide surnamed Jin took everyone on the minibus again and went to several craft shops and tourist souvenir shops in the town.
Since Di Ming was not interested in this, he took the initiative to find a tour guide before this and asked her to bring a few designated handicrafts for him, so that now he can do what he wants and stroll through the streets of the ancient town.
As for his good brother Sun Wei, he was responsible for the heavy responsibility, and he was forced to assign the task and put him in the car.
The place he is going to now is the place he must go as soon as he comes, a dim sum shop owned by a local, the owner of which is an old man over half a hundred years old, but his craftsmanship is superb.
As usual, when he entered the store, he called out, "Uncle Wang, the old three, I still sit in the old place." ”
"Hey, got it! You kid hasn't been here in a long time. Wait! From the back hall came Uncle Wang's reply.
It's really a place in the world where we don't meet! As soon as Di Ming turned around, he ran into a big acquaintance, who was now sitting with the other three people, only he had a pair of eyes open, staring at him intently.
Di Ming didn't think that they were here for a vacation in police uniforms, he nodded and smiled at Zou Yu, and walked towards his old position.
"You wait for me here, I see a friend, come as soon as I go." Zou Yu explained to his subordinates and left his seat.
"You may be seated." Di Ming had already poured two cups of tea, and he knew that Zou Yu was coming back to find him as if he was a prophet.
"Good. Are you here for that? Zou Yu picked up the teacup, blew on it, and asked softly.
"What's the matter? I'm here for tourism, not for anything. Besides, I don't want anything to happen. Di Ming said after taking a sip of tea.
"Yes. After all, the news is blocked. The town is still safe. ”
"Okay, since you're here, don't sell it, let's talk about it quickly! If it weren't for the fact that the case might have been involved, you wouldn't have told me. ”
"Well, you can see it. In fact, even if you don't come, I'll find a way to find you. ”
"Don't mention this! I get angry at the mention of it. You didn't even leave me a phone number last time, and you were embarrassed to tell me that I had something to contact you. I'm not as easy as you police force to find someone. ”
"I'm sorry! I really forgot. Straight to the point! Here's the thing. Ten kilometers away from Coffin Hill Town, there is a village called Little Niu Village. Most of the people in this village make a living from raising cattle. A month ago, there were frequent cases of cattle in the cowshed being bitten to death in their village, and because their village is close to the mountains, they thought that wild animals from the mountains had come down to feed, so they stepped up their patrols at night.
At first, it was fine, and there were no more casualties in the barn, but just a week ago, a young man on night patrol died unexpectedly, and the forensic doctor determined that it was caused by massive blood loss, but we did not find any injuries on his body, not even those the size of a needle's eye.
The leaders of the city attached great importance to this, and formed a special task force for this purpose, because the captain of the city's criminal police team happened to be injured due to the previous case, and the other teams also had a task to do, so they removed me here and took full responsibility for handling this matter.
The day after I arrived, there was another death in their village, still male, and the cause of death was the same as before. No, we just came back from there, and we were going to bring some more things, so we stayed there forever.
It's a coincidence that you're here, and if you're a little late, maybe we won't be able to meet us. ”
After listening to Zou Yu's narration, Di Ming already had some ideas in his heart. Originally, I really didn't want to wade into this troubled water, but who made me need to accumulate merit now!
"That's it, anyway, you have my phone, call me then, and I'll rush to your side after I take care of the matter here. Let me remind you first, from the analysis of what you have said so far, I think it would be best for you to advise the people in the village not to come out again at night after you return there, and even if you go out on patrol, it is best to go out in groups of two, and never go out alone. ”
The reason why Di Ming didn't agree to rush there with them immediately was because there were three other people here who couldn't reassure him.
After getting Di Ming's reply, Zou Yu seemed very happy, and after a few more greetings with Di Ming, he returned to his original seat, and it didn't take long for the four of them to leave the snack bar.
After they left, the three things that Di Ming had been waiting for for a long time finally came up, and Uncle Wang said to Di Ming with a smile: "I really can't see it!" You're so familiar with the police, that guy still looks like a little head! ”
"Uncle Wang, sit. We haven't talked in a while, and I just so have something I'd like to ask you about. Di Ming stood up very enthusiastically and helped Uncle Wang to the position opposite him.
"I know that you kid is coming to me to inquire about something, what can you say!" Uncle Wang said with a smile.
"Uncle Wang, there are so many ancient and modern coffins in the ruins of this Coffin Mountain Town, hasn't there been anything similar to a legend?"
"Don't beat around the bush, don't you just want to ask, have we ever cheated corpses! Zombie stuff? Hehe, you haven't asked me before, but it's not too late to ask.
I've heard my grandfather say that we did have a zombie incident a hundred years ago, and then it was the imperial court that sent a powerful celestial master to subdue it. In order to prevent such a thing from happening in the future, the Celestial Master tried to open the altar for forty-nine days at the place where the zombie was born, and then made a statue there.
He also instructed us to worship the gods on the 14th day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar. This tradition was preserved until ten years ago. Ten years ago, we didn't become a scenic heritage area, and the place where the statue of the god stood happened to be the location of the current office building of the scenic area management committee.
You also know that nowadays, there are fewer and fewer people who believe in ghosts and gods, and in order to bring benefits to our Coffin Mountain Town, after several heated discussions, the statue of the god still failed to be saved. However, as the statue was removed, the sky seemed to darken all of a sudden, but it quickly returned to normal.
At the time, everyone didn't pay attention, but later I heard that those who had participated in the removal of the statue had all fallen seriously ill and had the same dream.
How can you not be shocked! Although this legend has not been recorded, everyone does not know it in the mouths of the older generation! ”
Uncle Wang looked at Di Ming very proudly, hoping to see the surprise on his face. However, the facts made Wang Bo very disappointed.
Di Ming was very calm, holding the teacup in both hands, and looked at Uncle Wang with a smile.
"Alright, Uncle Wang. I'm very interested in the legend you said, and because of this legend of yours, I suddenly understand something, and I want to thank you so much! Well, I'll order one more snack today, do you think it's possible? Di Ming asked in a childlike voice.
"Slam the door! I thought you'd say buy 10 copies! You're waiting! I'm going to do it. Uncle Wang said with a smile, and at the same time stretched out his powerful palm and touched Di Ming's head.
After Uncle Wang left, Di Ming's brows furrowed deeply. Since experiencing the incident of Huashan Hospital, he has not worked hard when he came back, and when he was resting at home, he also went to the Chenghuang Temple and visited Zhao Chenghuang.
Now that the master is gone, he is the only one who can ask for advice. By the way, he also returned the merit for January, and promised to return the rest as soon as possible.
"According to the classification of naturally formed zombies, the incident mentioned by Zou Yu this time may involve the green zombie! If there are a lot of people, there won't be any problems for the time being, and I'll have to hurry up and get this in advance now, in case I miscalculate, then something big will happen. ”
Di Ming already had a plan in his heart, and after Wang Bo brought the dim sum, Di Ming swept it away with three times and divided by two, and then settled the account and left in a hurry.
"This kid, I'm afraid it's a business matter again, there aren't many hard-working guys like him now!" Uncle Wang cleaned up the table and didn't forget to praise Di Ming.
Di Ming got out of the snack bar and did not go back to the hotel, but according to his memory, he rushed to the land temple in Coffin Town.
The location of this land temple is very remote, the temple gate is very small, and it also looks very down. When Di Ming saw this, his heart was sour, he turned around and ran wildly, bought some fruit incense candles and a broom, and ran back again.
He first used a clean broom to sweep the dust off the land temple, and then used a broom to sweep the perimeter and front of the land temple clean. After doing this, respectfully place the tribute and light the incense candles.
He looked at the land temple that seemed to be popular after his hard work, and felt very happy.
When he does this, it is all from the heart, and there is no utilitarian aspect. Even if I came here to find something to do.
There are very few people passing by here, and it is winter now, and the cold wind is gusting, and even if someone passes by, they are wrapped in coats and hurried by.
Di Ming would be happy to see such a scene, so it would be more convenient for him.
He took out the Yin Si Head Catcher Token and lit it up at the Land Temple, and the next moment he was shrouded in a ray of light, and in the blink of an eye, he came to the Land Temple.
"Someone finally came, and I thought they had forgotten about me!" The land lord seemed to be very happy with Di Ming's arrival.
Di Ming also bowed slightly to the land lord first, and bowed very politely. Then, under the guidance of the land lord, he entered the living room
