Chapter 58: Xu Xiangqian

"Ah Leng, what's wrong?" Xiang Feng asked in a low voice.

"Do you still remember what I told you yesterday, the past of Political Commissar Xu of Gaojia Village?"

"Of course I do." Xiang Feng said.

"The old man who passed by just now is Gao Laosan, the son of Political Commissar Xu..."

Xiang Feng frowned, "How did he get here?" ”

"I think it's weird too," I muttered, "Let's go over and see..."

"Huh? Master Leng, I haven't finished drinking a bottle of wine, why don't you leave? I'm going to order a few more bottles..."

The owner of the funeral shop was a little too enthusiastic, and I said that we had something important to do, and when the time was over, we would go to his store to have a drink with him.

"Then you must come! …”

Xiang Feng and I returned to the temple, only to see that there were many more pilgrims in the courtyard than before. Xiang Feng and I stood at the paper, scanning the faces, and after about five or six minutes, we saw Gao Laosan walking out of the temple house dedicated to Fox Daxian. The old man was holding three incense sticks in his hand, and he was walking staggeringly, when he was hit on the shoulder by a young man and almost fell.

After inserting the incense in the incense burner in the middle of the courtyard, the old man took out the roll of straw paper that was in his armpit, walked to the incinerator against the wall, and squatted on the ground, throwing the straw paper into the furnace one by one, muttering something in his mouth.

"There must be a ghost in this old man." whispered to the wind.

I nodded.

"I'll test him..."

After Xiang Feng finished speaking, he took off his backpack, took out a stack of papers, handed the backpack to me, calmed down, and walked towards the old man. Xiangfeng people are tall and big, coupled with a long table of talents, and their walking posture is very chic, attracting the attention of a group of pilgrims. Everywhere he went, others gave way to him.

came to Gao Laosan, squatted to the side of the wind, and talked to the old man while burning paper. After about five or six minutes, the old man staggered to his feet, waved his hand at the wind, and walked towards the temple house dedicated to the river god to the south. I hurriedly turned my back and pretended to be fiddling with the paper figures. There were so many people in the temple, the old man shouldn't have noticed me.

"How?" When Xiang Feng returned, I asked.

"He said he was from a nearby village and had come to attend the temple fair." Xiang Feng said.

"Did you ask him which village he was from?"

"Of course I asked, and he said it was from Li Village."

"It's obviously from Gaojia Village, but it actually says it's from Li Village." I snorted and glanced into the temple house, "This old man is very ghostly, what else is he telling you?" ”

Xiang Feng said that he pretended to be a tourist and asked Gao Laosan about the folk customs here and the origin of this fox fairy temple. The old man told Xiang Feng a legend that was exactly the same as that told by the owner of the funeral supply shop before. It's just that what the old man said was much more detailed. As for the use of fox heads to shape fox fairy statues, the old man did not mention it. When Xiang Feng was about to ask him, the old man said that he was going to burn a few more incense sticks for the river god, got up and waved his hand and left...

As he spoke, the old man came out of the temple house and walked outside.

My heart moved, and I whispered, "Ah Feng, let's go, let's follow him and see where he goes." ”

After coming out of the temple, we followed the old man around the grocery stalls, through the flow of people rushing to the temple fair, all the way south, into the narrow alley. There was no one in this alley, for fear of being seen by the old man, we didn't dare to follow too close, but fortunately, the old man didn't turn back along the way. Out of the alley, it was the bluestone road I followed the man in black last night. Along the bluestone road to the east, we watched as the old man crossed the stone bridge, turned a corner, and disappeared from sight.

He glanced at Xiang Feng suspiciously, and I said in my heart, where is this old man going?

"Let's go."

After crossing the stone bridge and going south along the river, as I walked, Xiang Feng grabbed me and pointed to the left front. Looking through the gap in the trees, I saw the old man kneeling in front of a large grave burning paper. Xiang Feng and I quietly stepped forward and hid behind a big tree. When I looked over, I saw that the tomb in front of me was sitting alone, there was not even a tombstone, the tomb bag was repaired quite large, and the straw paper pressed on the grave had faded from the rain.

When I was wondering who was buried in the grave, the old man started crying, crying and saying, "Daddy, I've come to see you...

I felt as if an electric current slammed me, and my whole body trembled, could it be that this grave is buried with the political commissar Xu? But didn't he jump into the Yellow River and drown? Even if you want to set up a mound of clothes, it should be located in Gaojia Village, why is it located in this bluestone town? …

The old man cried very miserably. I think it's time for a showdown with the old man, only he can tell us what the hell is going on, and he probably knows who the person who kidnapped Uncle Yang is...

Thinking of this, I glanced at the wind and walked towards the tomb first. The third old man cried very intently, and it wasn't until I squatted next to him that I saw me and was startled.

"You baby..."

I ignored him, didn't look at him, grabbed a twig and brushed the burning pile of paper.

"Political Commissar Xu, Xiao Leng has also come to see your old man."

Gao Laosan looked at me stunned.

I grabbed the straw paper and threw it into the fire one by one, while facing the grave, "Some time ago, I entered the stone room where you appeared in the mountains behind Stone Village, and saw many of your comrades who died in the side holes... I think that in addition to the wooden gossip engraved with a spell in the stone room, you found two other things, one was a pendant made of yellow rosewood with a strange beast's head carved on it, and the other was a strange-shaped stone. Now, an unknown thing has escaped from the stone, and I don't know where it is harming people at this moment, and if you have a spirit in the sky, I hope you can tell me what that thing is..."

I looked at Gao Laosan with my peripheral eyes, and saw that the old man was completely stunned. His expression told me that he must know something.

At this time, Xiang Feng also walked over, and when he saw Xiang Feng, the old man was shocked, "You guys, who are you?" ”

"Wizard." Xiang Feng said coldly, "Uncle, tell us what you know, except for the stone that Ah Leng said, now, an unknown thing has run from the Yellow River to the reservoir in Qingshi Town. If you don't find a way to drive it away, something will happen sooner or later. Back then, the people of Gaojia Village bullied your father so much, and during the three-year disaster, he repaid his grievances with virtue and took them to find fish in the river to survive the famine. I think if he were alive at this moment, he wouldn't have seen that thing in the reservoir hurt anyone..."

Under the turn of attack between me and Xiangfeng, the old man finally sighed and lowered his head...

The old man told us that his father, Xu Xiangqian, was originally the political commissar of a regiment headquarters of the Eighth Route Army stationed in the revolutionary base area of Taihang Mountain. Because he was proficient in the art of yin and yang and the five elements, he was transferred to the engineering company stationed in Stone Village to assist them in exploring the mountains and digging holes and expanding the arsenal. Some of the people in the company called him Political Commissar Xu, and some called him Xu Shi (sure enough, it was the Xu Shi mentioned in the engineering diary).

Under the command of Xu Xiangqian, the excavation work of the engineering company is progressing very smoothly, and it seems that the task will be completed in a short time. On this day, a sapper was chiseling a stone, and the chisel suddenly broke, and the broken chisel head flew back upside down, and the sapper was seriously injured. After the accident, Xu Xiangqian hurried into the cave to probe to see if there was any obstacle, and after this test, he now had a stone chamber hidden in the belly of the mountain on his right, so he reported it to the company commander.

After analyzing it, the company commander thought that it might be an ancient tomb, and maybe there were some valuable burial goods in it that could be used as military salaries, so he ordered the stone chamber to be dug through. Xu Xiangqian was simply the rebirth of Zhuge Liang of the Three Kingdoms in the eyes of the engineers in the engineering company, knowing everything and knowing everything, after determining the direction of the excavation, Xu Xiangqian gave an order, and those sappers didn't say a word, and it didn't take long to chisel through the stone chamber. However, when I entered the stone room, there was nothing in it except a yin and yang gossip plate. Xu Xiangqian did not give up, and after careful investigation, he found the secret door in the stone room, and led those sappers through the secret door to the cave parallel to the arsenal.

The cave was dark, and Xu Xiangqian, with the sixth sense of a warlock, sensed that there seemed to be some unknown danger lurking in the depths of the cave. He told all the sappers to wait at the door of the secret door, and gave the compass, engineering drawings, and other things to one of the sappers, and told him that if anything happened to him, he asked the sapper to give the drawings to the company commander, and let him continue digging the cave according to the drawings. After explaining, Xu Xiangqian walked towards the depths of the cave. Two of the sappers admired Xu Xiangqian very much, and if they were to use the current words, they were die-hard fans (like everyone who followed me to Motie, everyone is 52o happy). The two sappers were worried about Xu Xiangqian's safety and quietly followed him.

Xu Xiangqian didn't notice that someone was following him, he walked along the cave, and when he reached the end, he saw the cave with rune paper pasted above the door. Xu Xiangqian got into the measuring hole, and under the kerosene light, he saw a big stone in the measuring hole, with a very strange shape, like a stone beast. The stone beast had a thick, rusty chain tied to its neck. In addition, there is a wooden object on the head of the stone, like a pendant used to ward off evil spirits, and a beast's head is carved in the center of the pendant. After hesitating for a moment, Xu Xiangqian picked up the pendant, looked at it, and was about to put it back when he suddenly saw a strange raised stone on the beast's head where the pendant was originally placed. With a few strokes of his hand, he pulled the stone off.

At this moment, he heard movement at the entrance of the cave, and when he went over to look, he saw the two soldiers, so he reprimanded them and told them to go back. Training, Xu Qian bowed his head and saw the rune paper at the feet of the two sappers.

"Why did you remove the rune paper?" Xu Xiangqian frowned, "Hurry up and stick it..."

The two sappers didn't move, staring at Xu Xiangqian with distorted expressions, as if they saw something extremely terrifying...
