56. The Secret of the Well
Eleven had noticed the coffin in my yard early on, and only after the matter was said that he asked about the coffin, so we told him all about the recent series of things, and I think even if we didn't tell him, in fact, he might know, and he didn't say anything about meeting me in the underworld from beginning to end, so I tacitly didn't say it, but I just thought that I must ask him in private.
When he heard what was happening in my house recently, his brow furrowed. Then I asked my grandmother, "Is this blind aunt you are talking about Wu Xiaoquan's daughter-in-law?" ”
Grandma said: "It's her, after he died, it was his apprentice who has been helping our family to turn over these things, this time there is really no way, so he let us go to the blind aunt to help." ”
When Eleven heard this, he snorted coldly and said: "Their skills are all passed down by Wu Xiaoquan, when Wu Xiaoquan was still alive, my father said that he was just a half-hanger, fortunately, my father had that dream, otherwise your family would have been mistaken by people in his lineage." ”
Grandma listened but said: "No matter what, the blind aunt and Mr. are trying their best to help us, and we can't say that, and when Wu Dishi was alive, he did help our family a lot." ”
When Eleven heard her grandmother say this, she asked her grandmother and said, "Auntie, why don't you come to my father when something happens, as long as you open your mouth, my father will definitely not sit idly by, and my mother is not an unreasonable person, this is a matter of life and death for your whole family, and she will not stop it." ”
Grandma didn't say anything, so she said, "You won't understand now." ”
Eleven looked at my grandmother and then at me, but this look at me was quite meaningful, and he said, "Fortunately, your family seems to have some protection." It won't come to the point of ruining the family, and it's useless to say this now, Auntie, you can prepare a bowl of water for me, and I'll help you see this well in your house first. ”
My grandmother went to find a bowl of water, Eleven took the water to the edge of the well, and then put the water on the edge of the well, I don't know what Eleven did, I saw that the water in the bowl was moving, rippled in a circle, and it was pushed out from the direction of the well, Eleven kept looking at it without speaking, and finally looked into the bowl as if he was looking at something, he was motionless like a person, and it lasted for more than ten seconds before he came back to his senses, and I saw him frown, as if he had seen something. But as if he was not sure, he did it again, and this time his brow furrowed even deeper, and he said, "Strange." ”
I'm closest to him. I could see all the changes in his expression, and he frowned and thought for a few seconds, then he looked at me, and I saw a hint of doubt in his eyes. When he looked at me, he seemed to say that this doubt was related to me.
Grandma asked him, "How is it, can you see something wrong?" ”
Eleven said, "I'm not sure yet. ”
After saying that, he went back to the eaves, and took out a copper plate from the bag he was carrying, I thought it was a compass, because I saw this thing used by Mr., but I found that it only looked like a compass, not a compass, and there was no mark and grid line on it, and there was no word or inscription on his copper plate, but there was a strange rune-like thing in the center of the plate, like an ancient word, and it was not very similar. Anyway, I don't recognize it.
This plate is divided into four plates that can be rotated in addition to the central plate, and I saw him take this copper plate to the edge of the well and put it on the edge of the well, and then use his thumb and little finger to hold down the two sides of the second plate from the inside to the outside, and slowly turn it, I looked at Eleven's seemingly laborious appearance, and he was very difficult to make this plate turn about an inch away.
But suddenly, I saw his struggling appearance suddenly disappeared, only to see the second circle in this plate suddenly turned up, at this time it seemed that the rotation of the disc body itself drove Eleven's fingers to turn, Eleven saw that the second circle of the copper plate had turned up, so he took his hand away, I saw that with the rotation of the second circle in the plate, then the third, fourth, and even the fifth circle began to "click" each other, for a time these four circles rotated at different speeds, looking amazing.
After turning like this for more than ten seconds, it suddenly stopped, because there were no words on the copper plate, and after stopping, it only felt the same as at the beginning, but Eleven seemed to be able to see something, he kept looking at the copper plate, and he was very engaged, and looked at it like this for several minutes, and finally picked up the copper plate and played with it with both hands, as if restoring the copper plate, and then said: "So that's the case." ”
Seeing that he came up with an answer, the first person to ask was grandma, and she asked Eleven, "How is it, what do you see?" ”
Eleven said: "Auntie, don't worry, I have a question I want to ask Xiao Mu first." ”
After saying that, he looked at me, and then asked me, "You have gone down this well three times since you told me, right?" ”
I didn't know why he asked, so I recalled, I went down to save my dad once, and I went down with my husband twice, indeed three times, and I replied, "Yes." ”
Eleven asked me, "Don't you feel that this well is getting more and more wrong when you go down these three times?" ”
I don't know what Eleven wants to ask. What I wanted to say, I thought about it and said: "This well itself is full of wrong, I don't know what you are talking about, every time I go down, I feel like nine deaths." ”
Eleven said, "I'm not saying what's in the well, but when you go down, don't you notice that the smell of the well is becoming more and more familiar?" ”
Getting familiar?
Don't say that I really feel this way, especially the inexplicable excited look, I don't know why I am excited, so I didn't speak, just looked at Eleven, Eleven turned her head and asked Grandma: "I don't know if Auntie knows how deep this well was dug when it was first dug?" ”
My grandmother was also stunned by this question, she said: "Don't say how deep this well is, I don't even dare to say when it was there, I say that it was dug by his grandfather, but I remember that this well has been there for a long time, but it has not been used." ”
Eleven got this sentence from his grandmother. Finally said: "This well is eighty-one deep, as far as I know, the general opening of the dragon mouth is an integer, and generally three nine feet is the best, rarely more than thirty feet, unless it is not out of the water will continue to dig down, but generally if the digging to thirty feet does not come out of the water, it is not recommended to continue to open down, because such a dragon mouth is called a dry dragon, and then digging down is going to cause trouble." This well in your house is eighty-one feet deep, and I just saw that this is not a dry dragon, which means that the disease is not because there is no water to open so deep. ”
We all listened, and the atmosphere didn't dare to come out, only listening to Eleven, and after a pause, Eleven continued: "There is another kind of dragon's mouth that will open to six or nine feet, and this kind of dragon's mouth is not used for water supply." It is used to control feng shui, and the feng shui of the whole village will circulate around this dragon mouth, which is the dragon king's mouth that you often see, also known as feng shui mouth. And like your family, it is nine nine feet, which is specially used to support something, because when it reaches nine nine feet deep, you can contact the earth qi, and the dragon's mouth and the earth qi converge, it will become a vein, and the things that need to be offered are placed on the convergence point of this vein, you can achieve the effect of absorbing the earth qi and feng shui, and in the long run, the whole village will be sucked dry by it, becoming a dead village, the most obvious phenomenon is that the people in the village do not live long, the heirs are thin, the young die early, and people die for no reason, which eventually leads to the withering of people. In the end, it became an empty dead village. ”
Hearing Eleven say this, I can't help but secretly admire Eleven, because what he said is exactly what has happened in our village over the years, and grandma also said that there are indeed many people who have died in the village in the past few decades, and most of them are not very old.
Eleven said, "That's it, so it's inevitable that these things will happen to your family at this time." ”
