Chapter 109: Haunted
What is the meaning of "be careful on the road", we are very puzzled by their words, maybe we should pay attention to safety or something, I don't take it seriously, but their tone is thought-provoking.
Calculate the distance, there are also two kilometers to the commune, not far and not close, according to the instructions of the host's family, we can see the commune's bungalow by turning two intersections along the village road, and we can catch up before sunset by walking quickly, of course this is talking about me.
In order to accommodate me, Daima kept the same pace as me, but when he passed by a large house, Daima suddenly stopped.
"Senior Dai, what's wrong?" I turned around and saw him staring blankly at the big mansion with a solemn expression.
The gatehouse of this old house is very wide, with a typical Jiangnan style, the shape of the dougong is very chic, even the carving is also unique, but I am afraid that no one has lived for a long time, covered with cobwebs and moss, the strange thing is that the position of the door lock is smashed out of two holes, and a very thick iron chain is connected between the two holes, and then locked by a big lock.
Dai Ma said slowly: "This is Jiang Ren's house. ”
I was also stunned, no wonder his reaction was so strange, my mind suddenly recalled that my grandfather was killed here, and even my parents were kidnapped here, and I couldn't help but feel the urge to go in and have a look.
Daima immediately stopped me and said, "You're not afraid? ”
I asked, "Do you mean here or that family?" ”
"Neither, it's here." Daima pointed to my heart.
I laughed and said, "What is there to be afraid of, I have figured it out." Just a little interested here and want to go in and have a look. ”
"But it's chained, and you have to do something to get in." With that, Daima took a step closer and lifted his right leg to give him a sharp kick.
The big lock was kicked so loudly that it did not fall in response, but it attracted the attention of passers-by.
The old man who passed by looked to be in his eighties, his dark cheeks were full of vicissitudes, and when he saw our actions, he immediately shouted: "Who are you, you don't see the door locked." Don't you want to die? ”
We were taken aback. The heart said what kind of customs are Jiangjia Village, one moment to warn us to be careful, and another time to say that we don't want to die, what kind of song is this!
Daima took a step forward. The general asked suspiciously, "Old man." I've been in the village before. I haven't heard that there is a problem with this house, you are exaggerating! ”
The old man frowned and beckoned us to come closer and speak.
"I know you haven't been here for a long time. This was originally the old village chief's house, it was abandoned soon after his death, after the liberation, the village planned to tear down the courtyard wall, re-plan a few rooms to distribute to the villagers, but on the second day of the construction, those workers who worked one after another got sick and died, and even the cause could not be found, and later, the village chief found a group of workers, but they all died, you say that this matter is not evil, this matter of demolishing the courtyard wall no one dares to mention it again. Not only that, every time the sun goes down and the night falls, as soon as you walk through the road in front of the door, you can hear the sound of "gurgling" coming from inside. ”
"Haven't you all been in?" I asked.
The old man gasped and said: "Who dares, but I won't hide it from you, but there are a few people who are not afraid of death have gone in, and they were all scared and escaped, and later, the village chief let people smash the door knocker, tie an iron chain, and press an iron lock, and no one has ever entered again, we all know that this house is haunted, you better hurry up!" ”
The old man's explanation aroused my suspicions more and more, not because I questioned the authenticity of his words, but because I didn't feel that there was anything wrong with Jiang Ren's home, it was a completely abandoned old mansion. There are more or less old mansions like this in every place, and there are several in Mizusawa Village, most of which are left over after fighting local tyrants and landlords during the liberation, and I can't see any difference, maybe there are secrets in them that I don't know.
Dai Ma told me that Jiang Shoushou was indeed an immortal, but he didn't know any evil arts, and how could he have the kung fu to arrange any mechanism before he died, so there must be a deeper reason for the explanation of the dead. It made my heart flutter to find out why, and to see what the dwelling of the man who had ruined my family would look like.
I told him what I was thinking, and he said to the old man, "Oh...... I see, then we're leaving, thank you! ”
The old man answered, and walked briskly along the road without looking back, lest he avoid it.
I knew that Daima said this to deal with the old man, and as soon as the old man left, Daima observed his surroundings outside the courtyard wall.
"Step ancestor, come here." Daima said to me.
I hesitated for a moment and said, "Senior Dai, you still call me Layue, I'm not used to it yet!" ”
"Okay......" Dai Ma smiled knowingly, pointed to the wall and said, "Layue, I'll hold you up and climb up." ”
"Okay!" I put my hands against the wall, stepped on his hand rest, and with a "Teng" sound, I climbed the wall, and my eyes suddenly opened up.
In addition to the main house on the north side, there is one on the left and right sides, each room is closed with the door, even the windows are closed, the yard is scattered with dead branches and leaves and some gravel, but the two big peach trees are vibrant, and this old house forms a sharp contrast.
Looking at the pink peaches full and ripe, I swallowed unconsciously.
Then, Daima jumped up the wall and jumped with me onto the green brick floor of the courtyard.
I hadn't eaten fresh peaches for a long time, and I was going to pick a few to quench my thirst, but as soon as we got off the ground, a whirlwind blew in the courtyard, and after a circle in the middle of the courtyard, it disappeared.
A series of unexpected discoveries made us dare not act rashly, and speaking of this talisman, I heard Qin Ling say it. The Taoist talisman is divided into yellow and purple colors, the yellow talisman is the most common, it is a necessary magic weapon for Taoist priests, and the peach wood sword and the gossip mirror are the same, dealing with ordinary zombies and used to perform Taoist skills, and the purple talisman is specially used to deal with the corpse devils and monsters who have become strange and have a certain Taoism. As a reminder, in the stone temple, Qin Ling was plastered with purple talismans around the black coffin of the corpse.
When I saw that the door was covered with purple talismans, I couldn't help but think of the old man's words, maybe what he said was true, this house is really haunted, and it is likely that it is not an ordinary ghost. (To be continued......)
