Chapter 556: The Gray Village

When I heard Wushuang say this, I couldn't help but touch my face—

There was a layer of black dust on the fingertips, and I don't know where it came from.

Both the abbot and the king of Jizo got up from the ground, looked left and right, and said, "Why is this place so dirty?" ”

I nodded, looked at the big chimney in the distance, and said, "Let's get done and leave." Otherwise, you might get lung disease. ”

Wushuang frowned and touched himself, then nodded, it seemed that he didn't want to stay here longer.

We followed yesterday's route for a while. Sure enough, I saw a river.

The river was small, there were no villages around, and it was terrible to be desolate. Stretching out from the river to a long distance, yellow grass grows.

The grass is unkempt, one on the left and one on the right. It doesn't look luxuriant, and the color isn't quite right.

We walked for a long time on these withered yellow grasses, and finally saw a river.

The water of the river is almost inky. It smells rancid.

Wushuang covered his nose and said, "The real body of the swagger is here?" ”

I nodded, "At least that's what it says." ”

Wushuang looked incredulous: "This place, with a little IQ, will not be approached, is there something wrong with it?" Come to such a stinky place? ”

I smiled bitterly: "I don't know if there is something wrong with him, I just know that if we can't find his real body, we have a problem." ”

The abbot leaned over and asked, "How is it?" Did you find those wronged ghosts? ”

Wushuang looked helpless: "Stinky like this, even if you are angry, you can't feel it." ”

A few of us were a little helpless and said, "What should we do then?" ”

That morning, we walked around the river, and there was no way to take it.

The imaginary human-ghost war didn't happen, and we couldn't even find out where the ghost was.

The abbot looked at the sky and said, "It's noon now, otherwise, let's go find something to eat." ”

A few of us looked out over the river, but we didn't find the village.

Wushuang said: "Is there anyone living around here?" The river stinks like this, who will live here? ”

King Jizo pointed to a wasteland next to the riverbank and said, "There should be a village here, and you see, isn't there a tomb there?" ”

We walked over together, and when we took a closer look, there was indeed a grave, layered on top of each other, and although it was not horizontal and vertical, at least there was a certain pattern.

This kind of tomb can only be the ancestral tomb of a large family.

The abbot rubbed his hands and said, "There is no need to look for the village now, we have already found the unjust ghost." ”

Then he looked at me: "Xu You, are you interested in digging a grave again?" ”

I waved my hand: "Not interested." How do you know that those unjust demons are in these graves? ”

The abbot said, "Are there any other ghosts here besides them?" ”

I said sincerely, "Look, these ghosts all have ancestral graves, what does this mean? It shows that they were honest and decent people during their lifetimes, and those who were traitors were not allowed to live in the ancestral tombs. ”

The abbot looked at me and said, "According to what you say, he was a good person in life, and he must be a good ghost when he dies?" ”

I nodded, "Almost." I think there are other people in the river. When we really want to fight them, we may have to rely on these good ghosts. You have now dug up their graves. When the night came, the two gangs joined forces, and we didn't know how we died. ”

The abbot frowned and said, "Is it so serious?" ”

I nodded: "It's that serious. ”

Wushuang tiptoed and looked around, and said, "There seems to be a path here, it must lead to a certain village, let's eat first, and by the way, ask if there is anything unusual here." ”

We thought about it and said yes. After all, asking the locals here can help us a lot.

We walked along the path for a while and soon came across a village.

This village is a world of difference compared to the fishing village thirty miles away. Although both villages are close to the sea. But one poor jingle and the other rich and oily.

We walked into the village and saw that every family was living in a new house.

The house was sturdy and the walls were very high. There are even quite a few small two-story buildings. It seems that the people in this village are living very well.

It's just that the only thing that strikes me strange is that. The village was gray.

The concrete floor is off-white. The tiles on the walls are also off-white. When we got closer, we found that the tiles were originally white, but they were not cleaned properly, so they became gray.

After more than a year of begging, we learned to cook ourselves.

We walked into a casual house and asked, "Is anyone there?" ”

A woman's voice came from inside the room: "Who?" ”

The voice is very soft, which makes people feel that the owner of this place is a very kind person.

After a few seconds, the door opened, and out came a large man.

I said that this man had a big skeleton. It's because she's tall, but she doesn't have much flesh on her body, it's almost skinny. Was staring at two empty eyes, looking at a few of us.

Wushuang muttered in a low voice: "How do you lose weight like this?" ”

I said, "Maybe it's weight loss." ”

The woman frowned when she saw us whispering, and then asked, "Who are you?" Who are you looking for? ”

We cheekily said, "No one is looking for me, passing by this village, feeling hungry, and I want to make some contact with you, I don't know if it's okay?" ”

The woman made a sudden realization with the only cheek meat: "It turned out that I was asking for food." ”

The abbot hurriedly came forward to explain: "We are not asking for food, we are monks, wandering monks. ”

The woman glanced at him, seemed a little impatient, took out a few tickets from her pocket, handed them over, and said, "Take it." ”

We waved our hands: "Just ask for a meal, not money." ”

The woman was stunned for a moment, then looked at us with interest: "You guys, it's quite interesting." Okay, I'm idle anyway, so come in with me. ”

We followed the woman into the house. Discover the house. Tsk tsk. It's no different from the rich, there is everything that should be.

The woman sat on the sofa, looking a little tired, she pointed to the refrigerator and said to us, "Find out what you want to eat." ”

We found quite a bit to eat in it. At this time, it doesn't matter if it's vegetarian or meat. I took it out and divided it, and then I started eating.

While eating, Wushuang asked, "Eldest sister, your family is really rich." ”

The woman smiled casually, as if she was immune to the compliment: "In our village, every family has money. ”

Wushuang asked again: "What is the name of your village?" ”

The woman said lightly: "Three Clam Village." ”

I frowned, "That's a tongue-in-cheek name." ”

The woman said, "Three-legged toads are hard to find, but two-legged people are." In our village, there are all kinds of magical things, so it is simply called Sanclam Village. ”

I nodded, "I see." ”

For a while, I was full of wine and food. If we don't get down to business, I'm afraid this woman is going to blow us out.

I looked at King Jizo, who immediately understood. With a solemn face, King Jizo asked, "Can I ask you a little bit about this benefactor?" ”

The woman said, "Haven't you been inquiring? ”

King Jizo smiled embarrassedly and said, "We want to ask, has anything strange happened in your village recently?" ”

The woman was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Didn't I say that?" In our village, there are all kinds of strange things. ”

King Jizo was stunned when he heard this, and then he asked, "So, what is strange about your village?" ”

The woman was about to tell us, when she suddenly stopped again, she looked at a few of us, and asked with some confusion, "How many of you, do you want food?" As soon as you enter the door, you ask questions, what kind of purpose does it seem to be? ”

I was shocked: "Why is this woman so vigilant?" ”

The abbot casually made up nonsense: "The four of us, we don't hide from each other, we look at feng shui." A few months ago, I watched the sky at night and found that this place was not very peaceful, for fear that something would happen here, so I rushed over day and night. ”

I muttered in my heart: "It's really awesome, watching the sky at night in feng shui." Abbot, your Taoism is quite profound. ”
