Chapter Thirty-Six: The Gathering Ground
Before I moved the store, I asked Zhao Shuihe in detail about the origin of her rental newspaper. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
It turned out that Zhao Shuihe's newspaper that published the rental information was the outer packaging when a small merchant sold her melon seeds by chance, and when Zhao Shuihe took the melon seeds, she happened to see that a page of the newspaper was deliberately outlined with a red pen, as if she was afraid that she would not be able to see it, and then, there was everything that seemed to come naturally.
If you are clever, you will be treacherous, and if you are good, you will be deceitful!
In this regard, I "realized it later" and analyzed: "Wu Demon has lived for more than 600 years, and he is probably far more familiar with this city than all of us. ”
Of course, although Wu Demon Lao is hateful, he will not make a move after all, so the key to the problem we are encountering now is what kind of resentful things are buried under this prosperous shop, resulting in us not having a single passenger flow.
And this, it depends on Zhao Haipeng's "eating curse" means.
...... Nearly half an hour later, Zhao Shuihe finally took her fermented glutinous rice noodles and found us.
The water lotus and the noodles are particularly crystal clear, although the fragrance ash is added, the color is slightly dull, but it is also like a crystal pastry.
After Zhao Shuihe handed the basin to Zhao Haipeng, he pouted slightly, and boasted: "Huaiyang Xiao Beauty's 'Three Water Surface', I learned it secretly, and the technique is not bad, right?"
Zhao Haipeng took the noodles in his hand, weighed it slightly, and smiled, which was regarded as a response.
After getting the noodles, Zhao Haipeng brought vinegar and added what he called "fairy brew" to the whole pot of noodles, and then kept stirring to finally make a "paste" made of glutinous rice fermented noodles.
With the paste, Zhao Haipeng picked up the brush I was looking for and brushed the batter on the walls of our kitchen, and soon painted patches of dark red light paint on the walls of this basement.
I don't understand why Zhao Haipeng used paste to brush the room, but looking at his serious appearance, it didn't seem like a joke, so I calmed down and looked carefully, looking at the wall that was painted with "vinegar rice paste", what wonderful changes would happen.
After Zhao Haipeng finished painting the four walls, he stopped, and he specially reminded me to pay attention: "Look carefully, what will appear on the wall?"
As the vinegared rice cereal dried up, the walls began to show light, dark red traces of vinegar.
With the passage of time, I soon discovered that the dark red traces were not evenly distributed, the places that dried quickly were shallow, the places that dried slowly were darker, and the traces of different shades were intertwined, like a painting gradually taking shape.
After a while, the lighter part of the color gradually joined together, and formed into regular shapes, like shadow puppets reflected on the wall.
Looking at those regular "vinegar rice graphics", a chill rose in my heart, and then blurted out: "People, there are two people in the wall?"
"No!" Zhao Haipeng looked at the shapes on the walls that changed from rice vinegar paste, and said in a cold sweat: "...... Not two...... It's six!"
As he spoke, a few of us noticed that in the walls around our cellar, the dried rice vinegar paste was beginning to take on the silhouettes of people, and those silhouettes stood upright, holding hands with each other, extending from one wall to the other.
The silhouette of six human figures is vivid.
My heart panicked a little when I looked at the oozing thing, because the outlines had no explanation other than to make me think that there might be a person buried in the wall.
Like me, Zhao Haipeng and Zhao Shuihe were also shocked by this unseen phenomenon, and Zhao Shuihe asked what was going on.
Zhao Haipeng stared at the wall and replied to the girl: "Glutinous rice drives away yin, vinegar can feel yang, fragrant ash is fixed, and the change in the density of the wall can affect the speed of water evaporation......
"Eating curse?" Zhao Shuihe suddenly said: "Master's Palace's 'Sixiang Exploration Spell'?"
After saying these words, Zhao Haipeng took out another cigarette and thought about it while smoking.
Half a day later, Zhao Haipeng finally extinguished the cigarette and raised his head.
He looked at the "vinegar maps" that were gradually drying up and disappearing, and finally qualitatively said: "These six people in the wall are definitely dead from the criminal law of extreme fear, or the hand of evil magic, with grievances and grievances, and over time, it has produced such a small corpse collection site. ”
"Six people, after killing...... Still buried in the wall?" Zhao Shuihe and I were stunned at the same time.
It is almost impossible to imagine what kind of story happened in this small western-style building during the Republic of China, and to what extent did the murderers hate these people?
Immediately, I took out my phone and was going to call Mrs. Gao, who rented our room.
I was going to ask why she had rented out such a haunted storefront, and why, she didn't talk to us at the time.
And the conscience is gone?
The call was made quickly, but sadly...... No one answered?
I was annoyed, dialed again, and no one listened, just when I wanted to dial the third time, Zhao Haipeng gently put his hand on my mobile phone and shook his head slightly.
He said helplessly: "People take money to do myeloma, they can't take care of it at all, and I don't know how many years this western-style building has been built, how can Mrs. Gao know about those things before the founding of the People's Republic of China." ”
After saying this, Zhao Haipeng picked up another spatula, he walked in front of the "outline" of a corpse, and used the shovel to shovel off some of the white ash on the wall.
Under the heavy white ash, a rectangular, palm-sized dark yellow fell, and soon emerged.
That...... Is it a piece of rune paper?!
The talisman paper has disappeared completely, but the words "Ordering ......" written in cinnabar are still barely visible.
In addition to the rune paper, I also saw Zhao Haipeng dig out a piece of wire and some other filler from it.
"I get it!" Zhao Haipeng threw away the shovel. He told us everything he had in mind.
During the Republic of China, there were six people who died here, and they died very miserably, of course, the age is long, why they died, how they died, there is no way to find out, the only thing we know is that these people were built into the wall of my hotel after they died, hidden.
That's not all, the people who killed them seemed to know that these people were grudgeful, and sooner or later they would turn into ghosts, so when they built the house, they also buried golden paper charms and the like, and they suppressed the monstrous grievances.
It is also because of the insidious actions of the person who built the house, the grievances of the dead have been pressed, so that for so many years, there has been nothing wrong, and this western-style building has become a prosperous shop because of its good location.
But it all ended three years ago.
