Chapter Twenty-Three: Headless Corpses

After receiving my grandfather's instructions, my father nodded, and about ten minutes later, my father came with a yellow package.

Grandpa took the yellow package, took out eight small apricot yellow flags from it, took out a compass, walked around a few more times, and made marks in different places around the puddle.

Then, the eight small apricot yellow flags were planted in the corresponding positions.

After completing this step, Grandpa said, "It's done, now pull them all out!" ”

The villagers all know Grandpa's ability, and with Grandpa in charge, they are not so afraid. Grandpa said that it could be done, and they thought it could be done, so a few laborers threw out the rope again, and the rope was looped around the corpse's feet and neck.

I have to say that grandpa's methods are very mysterious, but they really work.

As you can imagine, as my grandfather said, the corpse moved as soon as it was pulled, and the corpse that had just been dead and sunk now had been pulled out of the water without much effort at all.

Everyone was suspicious that something was biting at the corpse under the water just now, and everyone might have thought about it in this atmosphere, but no one wanted to say it.

"Look, everyone, that corpse has no head!" One of them had sharp eyes, and Li Tiezhu exclaimed.

The sound startled everyone present, and everyone turned their eyes to the corpse that was about to come out of the water.

The people who pulled the bodies were nervous, and I could even see their hands shaking as they held the ropes.

Grandpa said at this time: "Don't worry, everyone, there is a formation of apricot yellow flags on the edge of the pool, there is absolutely no problem!" ”

Grandpa's words can always calm everyone's nervousness, and the few men who dragged the corpses also shouted slogans together, cheering themselves up and emboldening themselves.

In a few moments, all three bodies were dragged out.

It is true that as Li Tiehammer said, after the three corpses were pulled out, the result was the same, and none of them had heads.

Among these people before, some of them had a glimmer of hope for my grandfather, but now there is no head, they know that my grandfather is capable, but how can I save the corpse without a head?

In an instant, the atmosphere next to the spring pool became very depressing, and the crying made everyone standing very sad, and so did Grandpa, and so did Daddy.

The strange death of these people is definitely not a simple drowning death at a glance, and everyone is speculating about the cause of these people's deaths.

Most of the villagers are superstitious, and some of them think that the revenge of the immortal family on the old locust tree is still continuing, but some people say that it is not that a real dragon was suppressed at the foot of this Qingyan Mountain, but that day the tree must have been cut down to the real dragon in the depths of the spring, and the real dragon was angry so he took their lives.

Of course, this is all speculation, and it is a mysterious speculation.

In everyone's opinion, the only person who can understand the truth now is probably only my grandfather, and the person who really understands the way of yin and yang is indeed the only one in Yangjiazhuang.

Someone asked my grandfather: "Yang Shenxian, this person is gone, and there is no whole corpse, will this still be the revenge of the immortal family on the old locust tree......

The man didn't dare to say anything after he said it halfway, behind him was the big locust tree that had been cut down, if his words were heard by the immortal family on the old locust tree, wouldn't it be even the man himself who would have to take revenge?

"It's impossible, if the immortal family on the old locust tree is still there, I'm afraid that a few of them would have died a few days ago, and now everyone has seen it, this way of death is fundamentally different from what everyone saw before, so, these are two things at all, there are other people who killed the root seedlings, of course, the murderer may not be a person!" Grandpa said that he had already driven away the immortal family on the old locust tree, so he was sure that it was definitely not the immortal family on the old locust tree who killed Zhang Genmiao and the three of them.

Someone asked, was the corpse stuck before or for other reasons, why couldn't it be dragged out, but my grandfather put on the apricot yellow flag and the corpse came out?

Grandpa's explanation was like this, he said, he just felt that this place was very yin, and he didn't know what the corpse was stuck underneath.

Insert the apricot yellow flag, even if it is a pure yang formation, the evil qi will be driven away, and the natural yin qi will dissipate. Without the Yin Qi, the restrictions on those corpses were naturally lifted.

It sounds suspenseful, but that's what happened.

Since it is not the revenge of the immortal family on the old locust tree, and there is yin qi in the spring water, what will the murderer be? But there is no clue at all, and it is impossible to guess just by judging by the deaths of a few people.

For a while, everyone was helpless, my grandfather was not a god after all, and he couldn't know everything, this was his original words.

In addition, in the countryside, it is actually very unlucky to die without a body, and three people died at a time.

The heads of the three dead are gone, where are their heads?

No one knows, but most people think their heads must still be underwater. However, no one dared to touch the puddle of the dead inside, let alone go down to catch the dead man's head.

At this time, my father stood up and said, "I'll go down and have a look!" ”

He looked at my grandfather when he said this, and he was asking for my grandfather's opinion.

My grandfather frowned slightly, who wants his son to go down and take risks, grandpa said: "Tie a rope around your waist, and a few of you pull it behind, if there is any situation, you will shake the rope, do you understand?" ”

Daddy nodded, picked up the rope he had just used to scoop up the corpse from the ground, tied it around his waist, and then took off his shirt and jumped into the water.

There were five or six people in the back clinging to the rope, and they were even more nervous than my dad who went into the water.

In fact, in this case, I also sweat for my father. Those people may have jumped into the water and died, will my father be okay if he goes down, I walked to my grandfather's side, and my grandfather stopped me in his arms.

I watched my dad dive deeper and deeper, and I couldn't help but start worrying that my grandfather was holding my hand tightly, and he was actually nervous.

In fact, the dead feet of those people just now were still floating on the water, and they didn't sink to the bottom, but why couldn't they be pulled out in the first place. Grandpa planted the apricot yellow flag around the pool, and then, the corpse was easily dragged out, what is the principle, this kind of thing is mysterious enough, but now that my father has gone down, this makes my heart rise to my throat.

In fact, the edge of this spring pool is not deep, but it is very deep near the big bluestone on the opposite side, and you can't see the bottom at all, and the depth looks like a gray cyan, which makes people feel very uncomfortable.

My father's figure kept going down, and the rope in the hands of those people had been released for a long time, and even my father's figure had become blurred.

Actually, before my father, no one in my village had ever entered this pool.

In the past, this big pond was surrounded in the village temple, and no one dared to come. After the village temple was smashed and the locust tree was cut down, strange things happened one after another, and everyone didn't dare to approach here at all.

This spring pool has long been taboo by everyone.

Legend has it that Jiaolong was suppressed at the foot of Qingyan Mountain, and the dragon ruled the water, so there is such a living spring with sufficient water here. But after all, this is all a legend, no one believes that there is really a dragon underwater, and the villagers just use this legend as an after-dinner conversation.

Daddy's voice became more and more indistinct, until finally I couldn't see him at all, and the rope was more than ten meters long, such a big puddle, I didn't expect it to be so deep.

"Look, the rope is moving, pull Mingyi back!" Li Tiezhu shouted, he pointed to the rope, and the rope really shook violently, as my grandfather explained before, this is my father asking for help.

Whether he was in danger down there or not, I began to get nervous.

"Hurry up and pull the rope!" My grandfather yelled, he was nervous.

My grandfather rushed straight over, he tied the end of the rope around his waist and shouted, "Pull the rope!" ”

Everyone was awakened by Grandpa's voice, and I rushed over and got caught in the crowd and began to pull the rope with all my might.

It would have been very easy for six or seven people to pull a person, but the rope was tightly stretched and did not move.

"Everyone, pull the rope quickly!" Grandpa's face turned a little pale, and he yelled at the villagers. Everyone knows that my dad is looking for clues for them to dive, and now he has not slackened at all.

Everyone joined the drag team, a dozen people, and the rope creaked.

Suddenly, the rope made a "bang" sound.

More than a dozen people all fell backwards, and one man flipped on his back.

The underwater rope was quickly pulled out of the water in an instant, but the rope was so light that anyone could guess that the other end of the rope was empty, and the rope with the thickness of the child's wrist was broken.

I rushed over, and the end of the rope was indeed empty, and there was no sign of Daddy. I know, Daddy had an accident, but when Daddy went into the water just now, why didn't Grandpa stop Daddy?

I looked at my grandfather, and he was stunned in place, which may have been beyond his expectations.

"Grandpa, can my dad come back?" I was so scared that I cried, and it was a terrible feeling to see my dad disappear under the water.

Grandpa took off his shirt directly, and needless to say, he knew that he wanted to go into the water to save my dad.

However, my grandfather was directly stopped by a few villagers, and Li Tiehammer directly grabbed my grandfather and said: "Yang Shenxian, can you go down any longer, there must be something strange under the water when a clear-eyed person sees it, you can't go to die!" ”

Grandpa's strength is very great, I have seen the picture of him holding up the incense burner with one hand before, he just struggled slightly, everyone was thrown away by him, and Li Tiehammer squatted directly on the ground.

And it was at this time that a black shadow gradually appeared under the water.
