175, tooth ghost
"Don't worry, I didn't mean to play tricks, not only have we never entered this secret passage, but we haven't seen it, and Grandma Long may be the only one among the aborigines of Qihu Village who knows where the entrance is." Ma Linzhang said slowly, not in a hurry. I noticed that the rest of the old people involuntarily stretched out their hands to the big gold medal, and seemed to be worried that Long Kong would take the gold medal again.
"According to the old man, it was probably during the Qing Dynasty, Qihu Village was still called Longshan Village, at that time this place was not very peaceful, the water of the Canglan River rose and fell, so there were no houses in the village at all, everyone lived in the boat, but in this way, there will still be villagers who are killed by the sudden rising tide."
"It is said that one year the tide rose particularly badly, the river was just like the sea, the villagers were attacked and disturbed really can't do it, ready to move out of here collectively, just when preparing to evacuate, a wave of overwhelming tide rose sharply, at that time there was still a dirt mountain here, all the villagers had nowhere to hide but to run to the heights collectively, but the tide rose very fast, and soon reached the mountainside of the earth mountain, just when all the villagers felt that they would die, six wooden coffins quickly floated on the river, and when these coffins floated to the earth mountain, they floated on the water and did not move, After that, the water also stopped rising, and after a while, the turbid water surface under the earth mountain rolled up a huge ripple, and a large earthy yellow python came out of nowhere, and swam towards the distance after turning around the earth mountain, and after a while, the water on the river surface was surging, just like the water boiling pot, and soon the tide retreated rapidly, and when the land was exposed again, I saw a huge python coiled with a big monster fish full of vertical spines, and the two giants lay motionless on the ground. ”
I couldn't help but interject: "The fish was strangled by a python, and the python was stabbed to death by a vertical thorn on the body of the fish?" ”
"That's right, when all the villagers came down from the dirt mountain, a lame Taoist priest appeared out of nowhere, he sat on one of the coffins and smiled at the villagers and said: The fish demon that plagued you in the Canglan River has been killed by the giant python that repaid the favor, and you will be safe from now on, and there will be no more tides."
"It was strange for the villagers to arrive, because they had never fed such a huge python, so they asked the old Taoist python where did it come from? Why repay their kindness? ”
"The old way told them that when the Longshan tribe is still the Oroqen people, the mountain god worshiped for the hunters in Baitou Mountain (Changbai Mountain) is the snake god, since the snake is regarded as a protective god, the Longshan people go into the mountain to hunt whenever they see the injured snake is always carefully treated, so it saved the lives of countless mountain snakes, the giant python that appeared here is a mountain python that the ancestors of the Longshan tribe rescued back then, it follows the Longshan people who have avoided disaster here for thousands of miles to survive here, and finally repaid the life-saving grace of the year after a hundred years, The six coffins were identified by the villagers and found that they were the bones of the ancestors of the Longshan tribe who were buried here in the early years, and the mountain python was very likely to be rescued by the six people. ”
"The old Tao instructed the villagers to make coffins made of copper, a thousand catties, a total of seven large copper coffins were built together with the giant python buried in the ground, and the snake temple was used as the top to ensure that the water level of the Canglan River did not rise, and then the villagers respected the words of the lame Taoist to build a giant copper coffin and buried the six ancestors and the mountain python who killed the fish monster with their lives in the ground, rebuilt the temple as the top, and changed the name of the village to Qihe Village, and since then the Canglan River has never flooded the boundary of Qihe Village."
Ma Linzhang's story is about painting and coloring, obviously he doesn't know how many times he has heard and said the story of this Longshan tribe orally, so it is even more exciting than what Shan Tianfang said.
Originally, I thought it was over, and just as I was about to speak, Ma Linzhang said again: "Lao Tao also said that the most important thing for the copper coffin burial place is to be clean, and there can be no dirty things in the cemetery, so if you want to ensure the long-term peace and stability of the village in the future, you must clean up the cemetery with Grandma Long to ensure the cleanliness of the snake temple, and Grandma Long is a virgin after the age of eighteen, and the selection of Grandma Long from the girls of the clan is the matter of the old group of the Seven Households Village, and the Grandma Long who was killed is the last Grandma Long in the Seven Households Village." Speaking of this, Ma Linzhang sighed helplessly.
"Why the last one?" I said.
"Now girls who want to be lonely all their lives to keep their innocence, all they do all day is to clean up the cemetery, so Grandma Long still can't retreat at such an old age is this reason, in fact, we are equal, when she was selected to be Grandma Long, many little brothers in the village admired her appearance and wanted to marry her, but she was lonely all her life, and in the end she ......" Speaking of this, Ma Linzhang sighed, his tone was full of regret, and the other three were also ashamed.
I nodded and said, "It turns out that Grandma Long is not her name, but a position, this old woman has been alone for decades, and it is no wonder that she has such a perverse personality in guarding the ancient tomb, I think it is understandable to hear you say this." ”
"Yes, in fact, everyone in our village owes her, and now that she is gone, don't blame her for being ruthless, sometimes the situation is really helpless." Ma Linzhang's voice was a little choked when he said this.
"All of you can use the Snake Temple as a price code to negotiate with people in exchange for your own interests, but Grandma Long can't, because there is her life's work in it, so I make a bold guess that there are not a few people in the six hundred households who want her to die, right?" Rocky sneered.
Although he hesitated for a long time, Ma Linzhang nodded and said, "We're sorry for her." ”
"Uncle Ma, the matter has come to this, let's talk about it is useless, let's look forward together, the future will only get better and better, and it will not be in vain for Grandma Long to pay all this effort." Long Kong laughed and raised his wine glass, his expression was almost bursting with joy.
Although the matter has come to this point, it seems that it is in broad daylight, but I am still quite curious about one point, so I took out a secret weapon used by Grandma Long to kill people from my pocket, put it on the table and asked Ma Linzhang: "Uncle Ma, all the good things are done by Grandma Long, and all the bad things are also done by Grandma Long, so it has nothing to do with you, but the utensils she uses should be passed down from generation to generation in your clan, can you tell me what this is?" What is the principle of homicide? ”
Ma Linzhang picked it up and looked at it carefully, sighed and said: "I have almost forgotten if I haven't seen it for many years, this is the most peculiar hunting tool of the Longshan people, called the tooth ghost, the Longshan tribe is a branch of the Oroqen people, the Oroqen is a hunting nation, so there are many hunting tools used, the tooth ghost is a hunting equipment made of the tip of the wolf's tooth as the material, and the secret method is applied, and the tooth ghost is blown into the prey object with a blowpipe, it will immediately dissolve in the blood, and control the injured bone joint will be reversed and twisted, Even if the animal that is injured in this way does not die, it has lost its resistance, so it is the most mysterious hunting tool of the Longshan clan, and I really didn't expect that Grandma Long would actually make a tooth ghost. Ma Linzhang said in great surprise.
Now all the unsolved mysteries around the snake temple are solved, it is really like being revealed in the world, the project of more than one billion investment in Longkong is about to be launched, he was happier than anyone else that night, the wine was drunk, before parting, he was like a puddle of rotten meat, hooked me with his hand, stood close to me, the mouth almost poked my face, sprayed with a strong wine and said: "Brother, you are my father, my father......"
The driver and assistant tried desperately to put him in the car, and Rocky couldn't help but spit out, "Milk is a mother's thing." ”
"Normally, the nature of a businessman is to seek profit." I said.
The doorman drove my Mercedes-Benz S600 in front of him, and after getting into the car, Rocky sighed and said, "Finally busy, have a good rest for two days." ”
After thinking about it, I said, "I haven't seen Uncle Liao for a long time, I want to go and see him." ”
"Yes, or we'll go tomorrow?"
The next day, I got up early in the morning and went to the city prison, Uncle Liao was still bald, in good spirits, seeing my injured left arm, he asked about the situation with concern, time is limited, it is impossible to say too much, I will be injured in detail, after listening to Uncle Liao nodded and said: "I see." Then the expression on his face gradually became serious and said: "Skewers, you have to understand a truth, the art of robbery is detrimental to your own well-being, when you rob other people's luck, it means that you have to pay from other aspects, this is a very fair thing, so don't because your means are higher than ordinary people to rob people frequently, this is not good for yourself, the broken hand may be just a sign, you have to do it yourself." ”
I chuckled in my heart and said, "Uncle Liao, I really want to have intercepted the luck of a few people." ”
"Really? Think for yourself if you really have never practiced the law of calamity. ”
