Chapter 7 Yin and Yang Piles
I didn't care about the dirt, so I hurriedly pulled up the pig offal on the ground, and sure enough, I found that the pig's heart was gone!
Only then did I learn that the rest of the animals that were placed at the door last night were also in the same situation as my family, they were all disemboweled, and their hearts were gouged!
We went to check one by one, and the situation was exactly the same, and the smell of blood was everywhere in the village.
Everyone was stunned by this scene, and they didn't say a word, just silently followed the old man and the village chief.
When he arrived at the door of Wu Laoer's house in the east of the village, he didn't see any traces at his door.
"Hey, why hasn't Wu's second family moved?" The village chief looked at the clean doorway and said.
The old man's face changed slightly, he looked at the closed door of Wu Laoer's house, and after trying to knock twice without reply, he secretly exclaimed, "Oh no! ”
The village chief hurriedly asked what was wrong, and the old man said to everyone, "Did any of you see this family's livestock yesterday?" ”
Everyone looked at each other, everyone was in a hurry yesterday, no one had an idea, at this time Wu Lao Er's neighbor suddenly said, "His family didn't bring the livestock out yesterday at all, Wu Lao Er doesn't believe in evil, and says that it is all bluffing......"
"Quick, knock the door open!"
The old man didn't wait for the man to finish speaking, he hurriedly asked people to knock the door open, and the moment he walked into the courtyard, he immediately smelled an extremely strong smell of blood.
The old man swallowed, walked to the door of the hall and pushed the door open, and when he saw that he was dumbfounded, several people vomited on the spot.
I also felt my stomach tumbling for a while, although I vaguely guessed that something might have happened to Wu Lao'er's family, but I didn't expect it to be such a bloody scene!
I saw several corpses lying in the hall of Wu Laoer's house, and the bright red blood flowed all over the room, and even the ceiling was splashed with blood.
The most terrifying thing is that the corpses are incomplete, the body and head are completely separated, and lying on the ground is particularly scary.
I don't know why, the old man asked me to check the corpses, I had to grit my teeth and courageously approach the corpses, my feet felt slippery and greasy on the ground, and I almost fell.
After I saw a few corpses, the hairs on my body exploded instantly, and I found an extremely terrifying fact: those corpses were not as simple as separating the head and body, but some corpses had no heads, some corpses had no bodies, and the missing heads and bodies were gone!
The old man asked me if the male had lost his head and the female had lost his body, and when I looked at it, it was like this!
Then the old man instructed several young men to go to other parts of the village to check, and finally learned that there were four families in this case, and that none of the whole family was alive, and all of them were either missing their heads or bodies.
And the four families who were killed did not lead their animals at the door last night!
The whole village suddenly exploded, and at this time, they all said that they wanted to leave the village immediately.
"It's late!" The old man was a little angry and said, "The road out of the village has been sealed by the Ecstasy Array, and we can't go anywhere now!" ”
"Dao Chief, what can I do, you have to save us!" One villager was so frightened that his crotch was soaked.
The old man didn't speak, and after closing his eyes and concentrating for a while, his face regained his calm, and asked the village chief to quickly arrange for people to burn the corpses of these animals and people with willow branches, and then let everyone go home and let them do what they did last night.
After everyone dispersed, the old man suddenly called me aside, "Zhanning, come with me." ”
I walked over suspiciously, followed the old man to the foot of the back mountain, the old man looked around, and smiled gently at me, "Are you afraid?" ”
I nodded in confusion, but I felt very strange in my heart, this old man always had a straight face on weekdays, but when he was alone with me, he was very gentle, like the kind attitude of an elder to a junior.
"Hehe, I'm afraid it's normal, you haven't ...... yet" The old man suddenly paused and said with a smile, "That's it, there are some things that you shouldn't know now, I'll ask you, now you have two choices, first, I have a way to let you leave the village safely, but you can only leave alone, no one else, including your family." ”
"That's not going to work!" I refused without even thinking about it, if I wanted to leave my second uncle and aunt and the little mute, I would definitely not be able to do it, "What about the second option?" ”
The old man glanced at me, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "The second option, you must stay and take on the responsibility of saving the entire village." ”
I'm all at once, why is this happening to me?
Seeing that I didn't speak, the old man asked, "What, are you afraid?" ”
I shook my head, "Fear is secondary, but I don't have that ability, and I still don't know what those things are, what can I do!" ”
The old man asked, "And what do you think is at work?" ”
I thought about it and said that it must be Zhang Ya's ghost coming back for revenge, the old man shook his head and said: "You're not entirely right, if it's just that woman coming back for revenge, things will be simple, but do you think I've been here for so many days, why didn't I take that female ghost away?" ”
After he said this, I reacted, yes, this old man seems to be quite capable, but after coming to the village for a few days, he seems to have done nothing but a vigorous investigation.
The old man suddenly condensed and said, "It's not difficult for me to take it, but why don't I take it, it's not the time for you to know, I can't say anything to you now, otherwise it will hurt you, the only thing I can tell you is what was the trouble last night." ”
I asked, "Isn't it Zhang Ya's ghost?" ”
The old man shook his head and said, "It's not enough for ghosts to make such a big noise, in addition to people and ghosts in this world, there are many unknown things, and what came out last night was a monster called the Yin Yang Pile." ”
"Yin-Yang pile?" I wondered, I had never heard of it before, and I didn't know what it was.
The old man continued, "This yin and yang pile does not belong to ghosts, let alone humans, it is a monster with a man's head, a woman's body, and an animal's heart. ”
I was stunned, suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly said, "You mean, those people and animals who died in the village were all taken into yin and yang piles?" ”
The old man nodded, "Yes, remember the day we went to dig up that woman's body?" At that time, that thing was a yin-yang pile, but this kind of thing was very mysterious, and it was the first time I had encountered it, so I didn't think about it at the time. ”
"Later, when I saw the Ecstasy Array in the village, I suddenly realized that the mastermind behind all this strange thing was probably not anything else, but people!"
"People? Who is it? "I was confused as to why it was on people again.
The old man said: "The ecstasy array is different from the ghost hitting the wall, the ghost hitting the wall is just a trick, and the ecstasy array is mysterious, one or two sentences are not clear, but one thing is certain, the ecstasy array can only be arranged by people." ”
"So I guessed that someone must be behind this, and then I remembered the thing I saw when I dug up the body that day, and then I guessed what was going to happen next."
"Someone used Zhang Ya's corpse to refine the yin and yang pile, and used the ecstasy array to seal the road that day, just to refine the entire village into a yin and yang pile, and ordinary people will not have that ability even if they are high, and they will not show up, so let the yin and yang pile do all this."
"That yin and yang pile is only the most ordinary, and it doesn't have independent wisdom, so you can deceive it with some livestock, and those who don't put livestock at the door have suffered a catastrophe!"
"Is this still the most ordinary?" I thought that the yin and yang piles that could do so many things overnight were still the most ordinary, so wouldn't it be powerful if it was powerful......
The old man nodded, "As long as there is enough time and Taoism to refine the Yin and Yang Pile to a high level, it will make the Yin Yang Pile have an independent consciousness, and its words and deeds are no different from ordinary humans, in other words, if it is well disguised, a high Yin Yang Pile can completely blend into ordinary people and live without being discovered!" ”
I was horrified when I heard this, and quickly asked if there was a way to deal with the yin and yang piles?
The old man didn't answer my question, but looked back at the misty back mountain for a while, and then sighed, "I'm going to go up the mountain now, if nothing else, I'll come out in three days, and in these three days, you have to take responsibility for the safety of the whole village, if I don't come back after three days, you must not go into the mountain to look for me......"
I said in a hurry, "Then what should I do if you really don't come back in three days?" ”
The old man sighed, "In this case, it can only depend on your creation, Shi Dongxi, oh, no, it's Shi Nanbei, I will let him stay and help you, don't look at him stupidly, he is a good talent that has not been met in a hundred years, but it is not yet hot." If I don't come back after three days, you let Nanbei follow you, and you must treat him well in the future. ”
After the old man finished speaking, he patted me on the shoulder, then turned and walked towards the woods, and I shouted from behind, "What should I do these three days?" ”
"You can do whatever you want, I'm sure you'll have a way!" After the old man finished speaking, he added, "This matter was originally caused by you, so you must face it." ”
"Because of me? What does this have to do with me......"
Before I could finish my sentence, the old man had disappeared into the depths of the forest.
On the way back, I felt dizzy in my head, I felt that what this old man said was very mysterious, I didn't seem to understand it, this matter was caused by Wang Ergou and them, why did it involve me? And just now he said that it wasn't just Zhang Ya's ghost that haunted him, so who could it be? Who's behind that? Why did he say the whole thing was because of me?
The more I thought about it, the more confused I became, and I couldn't think of a clue, but after returning to the village, I saw that the people in the village were busy with their own work, and they all consciously put their heads at the door without anyone arranging.
I told the village chief the whereabouts of the old man, but I didn't elaborate on the content of our conversation, because the old man said that the mastermind behind the scenes was a person, and I thought it would be better to keep an eye on it.
The little fat man and his master went into the mountain alone, and he didn't react at all, and the first thing that came to mind was that he had been eating and living in my house for the past few days, and I had to take care of his food, which made me cry and laugh.
I stayed alone in my room and pondered, and I still couldn't figure it out, if it weren't for all the things I've been through these days, I would never believe in ghosts and gods before, let alone know about it.
At this time, the little mute came in with a few plates of food, and the little fat man sniffled in his sleep, woke up, wiped his saliva, and said, "What is so fragrant, haha, there is something to eat!" ”
After speaking, he jumped up and jumped directly to pick up a plate and start eating, and the little mute on the side looked very bad. In fact, from the very beginning, I felt that the little mute disliked the little fat man very much, and always kept a certain distance from him no matter what he did.
The little mute looked at the little fat man's position, and hurriedly "grabbed" two dishes and brought them to me, I smiled at her, every time I saw the little mute, I had no worries.
"It's all vegetarian dishes, I want to eat meat!" The little fat man complained.
I looked at him and didn't bother to explain to him, the situation is special now, the family's livestock is worth more than gold, it is something used to save life, of course it cannot be eaten.
The little fat man said that, but he still devoured it. After swallowing a few bites, he suddenly picked up something from the plate, "Hey, what kind of dish is this, why haven't you seen it before?" ”
I glanced at it, and suddenly a spirit was excited, and I hurriedly leaned over to take a look, and found that what the little fat man was holding on his chopsticks turned out to be a locust leaf!
I remember that when I dug up Zhang Ya's body that day, I also found many locust tree leaves, and in our village, there were no locust trees at all!
