Chapter 63: The Dry Well

"Although my ancestor grandfather has been found, his old man ......" Speaking of this, Huang Lei paused, sighed, and said, "His old man is no longer a living person, but has become a red murderer." ”

"Red murderer?" I was a little taken aback. Although we have never seen a red murderer in our line of work, it is impossible that we have not heard of it. The so-called red murder is actually a corpse, which belongs to the category of corpses. In fact, there are many cases of corpses in this world, but there are very few who can finally become corpses. Generally speaking, if you want to become a corpse, you must first contain the resentment of the sky, and secondly, you need to have a great coincidence.

For example, the Wang family in Kangping Town back then, she was wronged, and she already had a great grudge in her chest, and then she was designed by Old Man Meng to sit in red clothes on the ground and die, which became a murderer.

And that ancestor of the Yellow Gate, as the leader of a family of magicians, should be a person with excellent skills, since this person can become a red murderer, I don't know what kind of changes have happened.

Seeing Huang Lei shook her head, she said, "No one knows what happened to my ancestor grandfather." But when things got to that point, it was irreparable, and in the end, the Huang family joined forces to capture the ancestor and grandfather. ”

It's just that although this head of the Yellow Gate family has become a corpse, after all, he is the elder of the Yellow Gate, and those descendants can bear to kill him, so they work together to seal him under the ancestral house.

After all, the Yellow Gate is a family of Shumen, if the news of the head of the family becoming a red murderer spreads, it will have a great impact on the reputation of the Yellow Gate, and this matter is too strange after all, so the descendants of the Yellow Gate keep this matter secret, and only say that the head of the family died of illness, and the ordinary children of the Yellow Gate only know that there is an evil under the ancestral house, but they don't know that it is an ancestor of the Yellow Gate.

"Since this incident, we Huangmen have chosen to be born and moved to live in Dongting, secretly investigating the hidden circumstances of the suffering of our ancestors and grandfathers." Huang Lei said this, and sighed lightly, "It's just that until now, nothing has been found." ”

When I heard this, I realized that the Yellow Gate still had such a secret. After thinking about it again, I thought of the old witch again, and I always felt weird in my heart.

At this time, I saw Huang Lei stand up and beckoned to me: "I'll take you to see something." ”

I followed her out and walked through the courtyard until I reached an octagonal well. Huang Lei said: "Look at this well. ”

I saw that this well was also made of bluestone, and the appearance was very similar to the one I had seen outside the house before.

I only heard Huang Lei say: "There are four wells in this ancestral house, which are in the four corners of the southeast, northwest and north. In addition, there are eight people outside the house, adding up to a total of twelve. ”

When I heard this, I changed my mind and said, "It's used to suppress corpses?" ”

Huang Lei pursed her lips and smiled, "You are a person who turns his mind quickly." That's right, this is the forbidden formation of our Huang family's ancestors, and the twelve wells are one of the parts. ”

I know what to hear. As the name suggests, the land will dry up where the red murder is buried, because the water vapor in the soil is taken away by the red murderer.

There is also a kind of legendary thing in the folk, called "Dry Fish", it is said that when the Dry Fish comes out, the red land is thousands of miles. In fact, where in the world is there such a thing, this is the red murderer, but it is just falsely rumored and exaggerated.

These twelve wells are scattered around the house, presumably to seal the fire on the red murderer's body.

"At this time of year, our Huang family has to come here to maintain and repair the formation. For more than 300 years, there has been nothing wrong with each other, but I didn't expect that something would suddenly go wrong this time. ”

It turned out that not long ago, the disciples of the Yellow Sect, who were originally in charge of guarding this place, suddenly rushed to Dongting Lake to report urgently, saying that there was an abnormality at this end of the house, so Huang Erye immediately rushed here with Uncle Song, Huang Lei and others.

When they arrived, they found a small patch around the house, the vegetation was yellow and dry, the land was dry, and even if there was rain, it disappeared in a few moments, and the water in the twelve wells had dried up in a few days.

I was moved and asked when it started.

Huang Lei said: "There should have been signs more than two months ago, but it was not obvious at the time, so it didn't attract attention. ”

I counted the time in my heart, and it happened to be the time when the tomb of the Xuannu was broken and the burial method was in turmoil, maybe it was because of this that the forbidden formation here was affected and the formation was loosened.

Just thinking about it, I heard Huang Lei say: "Later, Uncle Song took a few disciples down to check, who knows...... This is what happened. ”

After listening to Huang Lei, I roughly understood the cause and effect. Lying at the mouth of the well and looking in for a while, he looked up and asked Huang Lei: "Your family, does it have anything to do with the Shenxiao Sect?" ”

"Shenxiao Sect?" She was stunned for a moment, and then came to her senses, "You mean that Taoist sect that is very good at Lei Fa?" ”

I nodded yes. Huang Lei frowned slightly, thought for a long time, and said, "I know about the Shenxiao Sect, but this sect seems to have not appeared for a long time. Shaking his head, "I guess I haven't dealt with anything before." ”

I asked, "What about 300 years ago?" ”

Huang Lei thought for a while and said, "I don't know much about this, I may have to ask my second uncle." He gave me a strange look, "Why did you suddenly ask about this?" ”

I laughed and said, "It's nothing, I'm a strange person, don't pay attention to it." "Vaguely passed.

Huang Lei also smiled: "You are a bit weird. ”

I smiled, and was thinking about asking Huang Erye about the past, when I accidentally glanced at the well, and saw that a black smoke suddenly rose from the well, rising along the wall of the well.

Huang Lei let out an "ah" low cry and said hurriedly: "Something happened, I'll call the second uncle!" Then he rushed towards Uncle Song's house. After a short while, I heard several shouts coming from several different directions, and the disciples of the Yellow Sect, who were probably guarding the rest of the wells, also noticed something unusual.

I lay down at the mouth of the well, looked closely at the smoke, and saw that it was swallowing and exhaling, as if it was breathing. I had only heard the third uncle and some old people in the industry talk about "red murder" before, but I had never seen it, and I was quite curious for a while.

At this time, listening to the footsteps behind him, Huang Erye rushed over with a group of children, opened a picture towards the well, looked solemn, got up and said to Huang Lei: "Lei'er, you are guarding above, I'll go down and take a look." ”

Huang Lei immediately said urgently: "No! Second uncle, your injuries are not healed, I'll go down! ”

Huang Erye's face was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "I don't listen to my words anymore?" Although this second uncle has not recovered from his serious injuries and is in good spirits, he is still very powerful when he says this.

Huang Lei didn't give in for half a step: "Second uncle, you said that the Huang family will be in charge of me in the future, and I will come to do this today!" Second uncle, please listen to the order! ”

Then he said to the group of Yellow Sect disciples, "Who will go down with me?" As soon as the words fell, several disciples immediately came out of the crowd.

I know Huang Lei's temperament. Don't look at her usual appearance as a delicate lady, in fact, she is quite strong in her bones and very decisive. When I was in the small tea house, I was very impressed. Huang Erye wanted to stop it, but where could he stop it.

I lay at the mouth of the well and looked at it for a while, then said to Huang Lei: "I'll go down with you, don't take the other disciples with me." He said to Second Master Huang again, "Second Uncle, you are old and experienced, and you are still guarding from above." ”

When Huang Erye heard this, he said happily: "Xiaojing, it is naturally best to have you with you, but it is unpredictable, you ...... it."

Before he finished speaking, he heard Huang Lei say: "Second uncle, it's hard for you to take care of it." ”

Turning to look at me, Yanran smiled and said, "I'm not polite to you." ”

I smiled and didn't speak, listened carefully to Huang Erye's explanation of the situation inside, then walked to the well, and said to Huang Lei: "I'll go first, you follow me." ”

Huang Lei let out a "hmm". Like this kind of well, there is no need for any rope, climb the edge of the well, and climb down, Huang Lei followed closely. The well was about ten meters deep, and apart from the black smoke that rose from it, the air was extremely dry, and nothing else was encountered, and it soon fell to the bottom of the well.
