I don't know if the old man was dazzled or really saw it, but the old man was so scared that his heart almost stopped, and he ran to the path with a roll.

At this time, the people in the village also came, and in the crowd, an old woman dressed in black and wearing a small hat also came to watch the excitement with a cane.

This old woman is conservatively estimated to be a hundred years younger, which can be called the oldest old man in the entire village.

In particular, this old woman is a goddess, that is, a professional who treats people for evil diseases and calls the souls of children.

Because of her clever means, no matter who has a major disaster or minor illness in the village, she likes to go to her and let her show it, and most of them she can really look good, so in the village, her prestige is only higher than that of the village chief.

"This is a hanged ghost who wants to be reincarnated, so he bewildered him and made him his substitute ghost, there is no way, hurry up and overdo it, bury it."

The old woman's words were amazing, and as soon as she opened her mouth, everyone felt a chill all over her body, and she had goosebumps all over her body on a hot day.

"Grandma Liu, do you know what's going on? There must be no more accidents in our village, otherwise the children will not dare to live in this village. ”

Although the village chief has a high prestige among the villagers, the respected old woman still asked in a low voice.

"There's no way, there's no way to do this, I can only go over it, so that Xu Lin's soul won't be too resentful, otherwise no one can say who will be next."

The old woman dropped such a sentence and walked away tremblingly on crutches, and everyone worked together to remove Xu Lin's body, put it on the cart and pull it back to the village.

Seeing their son's death so terrible, the old couple couldn't help but be frightened, but after all, it was their own child, and the old couple was crying like something.

Since it is going to be excessive, it is natural to invite someone who knows how to come, but in the whole village, only the old woman knows how to do it. The rest of them are at most good at asking ghosts.

Xu Lin's parents went to Grandma Liu's house and invited him over to give his son a surplus, this kind of death, according to the inherent thinking conventions of rural people, people who are so unwilling to die will definitely become a ghost after death, and then there will be one more ghost in the village, I don't know if it will harm his family.

The appearance fee of the old woman is not high, that is, it is given at will, not too much to give, and not too little to give less.

A ritual is done. The corpse was buried at home for three days, firstly, the weather was hot, and the corpse should not be placed at home for too long, and secondly, Xu Lin had not been married, although he was already in his forties, but in the rural people's eyesight, people who were not married were children, even if you were eighty, you were still children, indicating that you were not yet an adult.

Blow, blow, blow, beat. After Xu Lin was buried, it didn't take long for someone to find out that the grave had been blown up, and the entire grave seemed to have exploded from the inside out, and the coffin was torn apart. The corpse was gone. That's when everyone was really scared.

It is not false to say that the hanged person is terrifying, and everyone firmly believes that such a person will definitely become a powerful ghost after death. As for whether it will cause trouble for everyone, no one can say.

But it's different when you cheat the corpse, the zombie has no mind. There is no human morality, there is no reason to talk about zombies, and one day it will enter your house through your window or skylight.

After discovering that Xu Lin's body was missing, everyone also searched for a nearby place where they could hide people, but they found nothing, and the more they couldn't find it, the more worried everyone became.

The corpse is gone, it's not a dog planing, it's a zombie, it's certain, but I don't know where it's hiding, maybe when I went to work in the field, the thing came out of the bud and bit it.

So, it seemed that the panic spread throughout the village overnight, and everyone began to put themselves in danger.

Those who originally did not have thresholds were also equipped with thresholds that were nearly 30 centimeters high.

The threshold was very common in the past, and there are still some well-preserved ancient buildings that still use this kind of thing, but there are very few buildings now, and no one even uses it anymore.

The ancient threshold is the kind that can be loaded and unloaded, and the anti-theft effect is not good, and the thieves do not need to pry the door, and they can climb in from below by taking off the threshold.

When I was young, my great-grandmother's house was the same old building that used to be, but now it is gone, and her house has such a threshold, which I used to climb when I was a child, maybe because I was so thin when I was a child, that I easily climbed into it.

In fact, the main role of the threshold is not to block thieves, but to block zombies.

In ancient times, the population was not large, and there were only dozens of households in each village, and there were only a dozen or even a few households in small villages.

Especially in the past, there were a lot of rats in rural homes, and they were big, gnawing boxes, biting clothes, and stealing the few grains, which was very annoying.

In order to deal with mice, it is natural to have more cats, and almost every family will have one or two cats.

I remember when I was a child, my neighbor used to have a big black cat, and even the dog didn't easily provoke it, which was very powerful.

After the death of the mortuary for seven days, especially the elderly in the family, the most sick and dead, at that time poor, even food can not be enough, if you are sick, you can naturally not go to the doctor, a small illness will pass in a few days, once a major illness, it is basically not cured by spending money, you can only wait for death.

In the course of the morgue for seven days, it is inevitable that a cat will enter the room, and if one is not careful, it is possible to deceive the corpse.

When people are in crisis, they often burst out with power that they don't even believe in, but where does that power come from?

In fact, this itself is its own strength, but people generally can't exert it when it comes to life and death.

And zombies are different, zombies themselves are dead, but the soul is not gone, at this time how much strength people have will burst out of power, and more importantly, zombies are not painful, and general attacks have no effect on zombies at all.

Therefore, in ancient times, in order to prevent zombies from suddenly breaking into their homes when their whole family was asleep, there were often high thresholds.

The body of the zombie is stiff, and the joints cannot be bent, and now we are watching films about zombies, especially domestic films, even if those zombies are invulnerable to copper-headed iron arms, but one thing will not change, that is, the legs and knee joints of zombies cannot be bent, and they can only jump and walk.

With a threshold in the way, zombies can't enter their homes, and naturally they can't harm people.

"Let's go to see the scene, we are making plans, and in addition, I have to meet this Grandma Liu when I have a chance, but I want to see how deep her Taoism is."

Huang Tian thanked the old man who told us about it, and took me and Qin Yue to the head of the village together.

From beginning to end, Qin Yue didn't say a word, and I was completely attracted by the old man's narration, and I didn't pay attention, until Huang Tian said that he was going to the scene, and I realized that there were three of us here.

Listening to the old man tell about his experience, other people in the village also gathered around, and it is estimated that they are almost familiar with these experiences, but every time they listen to it, there is still a sense of immersion.

"Let me ask, where does Grandma Liu live in our village? How did she see that someone had taught her or that she had done it all of a sudden? ”

We were about to leave Qin Yue suddenly stopped and asked the old man, the old man pondered for a while and said: "We don't know, she is not a native of our village, but came from other places sixty years ago, and there was an old man with her at that time, about sixty years old, and Grandma Liu was about forty years old at the time, and the two said that they were husband and wife. ”

"At first, it was indeed a family of two, but then the old man said that he wanted to go out to make a living and make money to support his family, who would have thought that he would never come back for 60 years."

"Yes, I've been to Grandma Liu's house, and there is a tablet in the middle of her house, I don't know if it's his man's."

A young man in his thirties interjected, and was immediately refuted by the old men.

"You know what? That's not a tablet, it's a shrine, and it's said that it's enshrined in Grandma Liu's life, and his man is next to it. ”

A strange old woman, a strange shrine, is there any connection between this? Could she be behind the whole thing?

I don't know what to say about the series of questions that came to mind, but the thought stuck in my mind.

After learning that the old woman's home was in the middle of the village, not far from here, we took our leave with the villagers and went to see the strange grove and the exploding grave.

When I walked to the entrance of the village, I suddenly felt that something was wrong, but for a while I couldn't figure out what was wrong, so I couldn't help but stop and bow my head to think about it.

"What's wrong with you? Why don't you go? ”

Qin Yue noticed my abnormality and came over urging me to hurry up and keep up, I will be there soon.

At this point, it occurred to me that something was wrong with me, and that the villagers' reactions, although they all seemed to be quite positive, were absolutely unreasonable when we said that we were going to investigate the grave, and none of them came to see the fun.

After walking a few steps, I caught up and told Huang Tian and Qin Yue about my discovery, asking them if this was the truth.

Listening to my words, Huang Tian was also stunned, think about it carefully, everyone is curious, such a big thing happened, and we were said by Huang Tian to be investigators directly sent by the central government, they have no reason not to follow over to see what is going on!

I'm not sure about others, but if something like this happens around me, and someone with a bull fork wants to investigate the truth of the matter, I will naturally not miss the opportunity to watch the excitement, and I will definitely follow behind to see what is going on.

"It's still unknown now, let's talk about it after we see the scene, maybe people are tired of it."

Huang Tian found a far-fetched reason, and he couldn't convince me at all, but since it was almost there, we naturally had to take a look first.

Soon we came to the side of the blasted grave, and although all this time had passed, the radial scattered earth could still be seen around the grave, as if it had been formed by the explosion of a mine buried in the ground. (To be continued......)
