Chapter 6: To Nepal

After this incident, everyone was frightened, and the movement was too loud, attracting the prying eyes of all forces. drive

Ma Pingchuan had no choice but to stop there, moved the coffins where his ancestors could be found to a new place and placed them, and then blocked all news under the pretext that the earth dragon had turned over.

Many years have passed, Ma Pingchuan suddenly remembered the letter one day, and sent someone to deliver the address on the letter given by the child, but found that the huge mansion of the Zhang family had long been empty.

According to the locals, the Zhang family was originally a famous local family and acted very low-key, but for some reason it suddenly fell some time ago and has since disappeared.

And after the incident of the Ma family that year, I don't know if it was because of the chaos in the ancestral tomb, and since then it has also declined.

After Ma Pingchuan's death, the heirs of the Ma family, who inherited the family business, moved their family to Nepal.

By the time Jin Wantang met the descendants of the Ma family to identify the ancient books, the Ma family had completely decayed.

After the story was told, Jin Wantang poured himself a cup of tea to moisten his throat, "This is how the general process of the matter is, if you want to track it down, I don't think it's really necessary." drive

Zhang Qixun gently tapped his knees with his fingers, "Do you mean that the place called Ma An still exists today?"

"Yes, but I guess even if you do, you won't have any useful clues." Jin Wantang said, "The follow-up content on that memoir was not actually written by Ma Pingchuan himself, but the youngest son of the Ma family who later inherited the family business."

"Ma Pingchuan himself didn't die of natural old age, that person died very strangely in the end, which is also the reason why the Ma family moved, if they don't move again, their whole family will have to die."

Zhang Qixun raised his eyebrows slightly, "What kind of weird method?"

"Huh~ If you want to say how weird it is, it's very infiltrating." Jin Wantang's face changed, and he saw that there were no guests lingering outside the door, so he walked over and closed the door.

"I'm going to say, little third master, don't laugh at me for being cowardly." Jin Wantang deliberately lowered his voice.

"That Ma Pingchuan, it's the same way of dying as those people back then, really, exactly the same." drive

"He ended up digging himself into a hole and burying himself in the ground!"

Zhang Qixun's fingers paused, and he said in some surprise: "Do you mean that Ma Pingchuan, like the soldiers and horses that turned into white bones back then, died on the barren grave mountain over there, and moreover, he dug himself and buried himself in it?"

"That's right!" Jin Wantang clapped his palms, "You just say, this infiltration is not infiltrating."

Zhang Qixun's brows furrowed slightly, and he asked, "How did his family find him?" When Ma Pingchuan was found, did he also turn into bones?"

"Hey, you're right!" Jin Wantang whispered, "If you want me to say, when his Ma family dealt with that matter, he had already been targeted by the things underneath."

Seeing Zhang Qixun's puzzled face, Jin Wantang said, "This is all my own speculation, let me tell you so."

"In fact, there is a record in the back of that book, Ma Pingchuan has several big dogs at home, and one is tied in each yard, since the incident in the scorpion tomb, Ma Pingchuan has specially raised several wolf dogs, saying that they are used to watch the door, but in fact, it is to prevent strange things from happening." drive

"It was always calm until a winter nineteen years later, when Ma Pingchuan had tuberculosis and was dying."

"One night it snowed a lot, which is rare in a hundred years in the Jianghuai area, when the temperature dropped so much that the lake was frozen."

"When Ma Pingchuan's sons went to see Ma Pingchuan in the morning, they found that the old father, who was supposed to be lying in bed and was sick and had no doctor, suddenly disappeared, and the door of the bedroom was wide open."

At first, the Ma family thought that the old father suddenly returned to the light, and wanted to go out for a stroll, look at the family business he had accumulated over the years, and end his last thoughts.

As a result, at this time, the careful second daughter-in-law found that the father-in-law's shoes placed next to the bed were still there, and there was no sign of being touched at all.

Obviously, it has been a long time since the old man left.

The family is in a hurry now, thinking that which enemy took advantage of the night to kidnap their father, and this is worth it?

The three sons hurriedly wanted to chase them out, and just at this time someone came to report that the dogs tied in the yard were somehow not eating food or bones, and only barked in one direction. drive

When the two older sons of the Ma family heard this, you look at me and I look at you, and I suddenly had a bad premonition in my heart.

In fact, when there was an accident in the ancestral cemetery, although the two of them were young, they still knew some general information, only the youngest son was not born at that time, and he didn't know about those things at all, and the others were also banned by Ma Pingchuan at home.

The two older sons of the Ma family muttered in their hearts, and when they went out to see the direction of the dog's barking, their hearts were cold, and sure enough, there was something wrong with the original grave mountain, and my father was probably more auspicious this time.

As soon as a few people put it together, they decided that they still had to take a look, and they couldn't let their father expose the corpse in the wilderness like this.

Just in case, they left Ma Pingchuan's youngest son behind, and then took the man and the dog up the mountain.

As the children of the Zhang family said back then, there was no grass and corpses all over the field, and the bones of many wild cats, wild dogs, sick and dead animals were piled up in the pit in such a mess, and there were children who could not be supported by poor families, or who died early, were thrown into the funnel pit that collapsed that year.

In the past two decades, the area has been completely reduced to a mass grave. drive

As soon as the wolf dogs raised by the Ma family arrived at that place, they would rush into the pit, roaring as they rushed, and the sound in their throats completely changed, and it was not like a dog barking at all, but more like some strange beast roaring.

The dogs seemed to be completely crazy, struggling desperately, their necks were torn by iron chains, and they even had to pounce on the people who were pulling the chains.

The Ma family had no choice but to order the chain to be loosened, and the dogs rushed into the center of the pit at once, and then began to dig the soil desperately.

Even though it is in the south, in winter, the soil will still be frozen, especially when it rains before, and a lot of rainwater has accumulated in this low-lying land, so that the surface layer is frozen, and everything in the pit is frozen inside.

Coupled with a heavy snowfall last night, the ice in that funnel pit is now covered in snow.

Several of the dogs had their paws worn out, and they hadn't dug up much.

The Ma family went down with shovels and pickaxes to help, knocking and smashing, and finally cleared out a large piece of snow and corpses in the center. drive

However, what they couldn't have imagined was that what appeared under the ice was Ma Pingchuan!

More precisely, it was Ma Pingchuan's corpse, and the skin of the face that had been frozen in the ice and had been crumpled by blisters, clinging to the ice.

The Ma family was scared to death, how could a good person run under the ice?

And some sharp-eyed people saw that Ma Pingchuan's body was actually face down at first, but when they smashed the ice, there was a vibration, and there was still a part of the water under the ice that was not frozen, Ma Pingchuan's body turned over, just floating in the water bare, without wearing a single piece of clothing.

The Ma family smashed the ice open and fished up Ma Pingchuan's body, only to find that it was just a set of human skins, yes, human skins wrapped around the skeleton.

Like the missing soldiers and horses back then, Ma Pingchuan also turned into white bones.

The Ma family didn't dare to publicize this matter, so they hurriedly brought back Ma Pingchuan's skin and bones, and did not dare to bury them directly, so they simply set a fire and burned them to ashes, and then buried the ashes in a box in the ancestral grave after the migration. drive

thought that this matter would end there, but who expected that in the next few days, the Ma family began to have accidents one after another.

First, the eldest son's family, who inherited the property, even his wife and children, disappeared after only one night's work.

The most important thing is that the dogs that were chained to the yard are also gone.

searched and searched, but did not find the eldest son's family, but the next morning found that the second son's family was also

It's gone.

The youngest son was only a teenager at the time, and he was also the most clever of Ma Pingchuan's three sons.

So he spent a lot of money and asked a few experienced people in the family who were in urgent need of money to go to the funnel pit.

After going, I found that the two sons of the Ma family and their families were soaked in ice, and the death was exactly the same as that of Ma Pingchuan before, and there were several wolf dogs buried with them on the side. drive

At this time, everyone was scared, thinking that something must have gone wrong when the Ma family moved the ancient tomb, and this was the retribution on them.

For the next few days, fresh corpses appeared in the funnel pit every day, all of them from the last time they came into contact with the place.

At this moment, everyone began to panic, and the remaining descendants of the Ma family all ran away for their lives within a few days.

The youngest son of the Ma family had no choice but to sell the family property at a low price and relocate to Nepal with the remaining sisters.

After Jin Wantang finished speaking, he was a little angry and didn't dare to breathe, "Little Third Master, if you really want to investigate, there are many channels, but don't put yourself in it."

Zhang Qixun tapped his fingertips on the table and thought for a while, "I think these follow-up things are more like artificial."

"Huh?" Jin Wantang was puzzled, "How do you know?" drive

"Isn't the intent obvious?" Zhang Qixun hooked the corners of his mouth, "The people behind are urging too tightly, if it is really the things under the grave mountain that are playing ghosts, then why didn't those people present at the time die in the funnel pit with the two sons of the Ma family at the same time."

"Moreover, don't forget, the old people who participated in that incident with Ma Pingchuan back then did not explain what happened to them after Ma Pingchuan died."

"This matter, from beginning to end, is clearly urging the Ma family to move out of that place quickly, there must be someone behind this who is playing tricks, deliberately scaring the Ma family with what happened back then, so that they don't have time to think about the suspicions before they move immediately."

"The goal of the people behind the scenes must be related to the Ma family, or it can be speculated that Ma Pingchuan was not as unproductive in that scorpion tomb as he said."

"The person who took over the Ma family's ancestral house at the end must have something weird."

Where others can't avoid it, why did they take it over, all this was definitely premeditated.

After listening to Zhang Qixun's analysis, Jin Wantang opened his mouth in a daze, and only after a while did he make a sound. drive

"It's been a long time together, and someone is deliberately pretending to be a ghost to scare people!"

Zhang Qixun nodded, "What was the surname of the last person to take over the Ma family's house back then, have you inquired?"

Jin Wantang hissed, "This, this, this...... I really haven't inquired about this, if you hadn't said this today, I wouldn't have thought about people at all from beginning to end, and I thought it was some kind of ghost power to retaliate."

"Little Third Master, you see that you have finally come here, and my old Jin has not helped much......

Zhang Qixun sighed, "It's okay, I'll go to Nepal to check it myself, where are the descendants of the Ma family now?"

"Ah, when I first met him, he lived in Jiangsu, and I don't know if he is still there, but I have an acquaintance over there, so I can ask him to help you inquire." After Jin Wantang finished speaking, he went to call.

After a while, he came back and said, "I've already asked people to inquire, little third master, if you don't want to leave me a contact information, whether you inquire or not, I'll let you know, how about it?" drive

"Yes, then thank you Boss Kim."

Zhang Qixun put away the Tibetan bracelet, got up, and put the elephant bone wrench and a check on the table, "There is a lot of trouble today, I still have something to do, so I won't stay long, and I will leave."

Jin Wantang happily sent him out, "Little Third Master go slowly, come back and say in advance, I will invite you to dinner."

Zhang Qixun responded with a smile, waved his hand, and went straight to the airport in a car after going out.

Zhang Qixun's movements are very fast, and some people in the dark are opposed

He had already arrived in Nepal before he came.

Winters in Nepal are cold, and the bitter cold winds go straight to people's hearts.

Located in the southern foothills of the middle of the Himalayas, it is known as the "Mountain Country". drive

The Ma family's house in the ancient city of Badgaon, Nepal, is easy to find, just near Durbar Square, probably because the Ma family has made a comeback for a while since they moved out of the Ma Nunnery, with the only remaining family property and the minds of those in power.

Even in the cold winter, there are people sitting on the steps in front of the pagoda temple basking in the sun, and the stalls of vendors circle around the temple, and the stalls are filled with various firewood, charcoal, daily necessities, rubies, coral crystals, etc.

Most of these vendors can speak some English phrases that can make a lively communication, and when they saw Zhang Qixun's special face, as well as a costly outfit, they all enthusiastically came up to introduce their stalls.

Zhang Qixun swept his eyes around, spotted a stall selling antiques in the corner of the temple steps, walked up to take a look, pointed to one of the older thangka paintings, and asked how to sell it.

The vendor sitting in the stall was wrapped in a wide felt coat, his head buried in a thick long sweater collar, and his whole body was gray like a thin bear, and the other vendors were enthusiastically hawking, except for him who shrunk in the corner and dozed off.

Zhang Qixun raised his voice and asked again.

The peddler slowly lifted his head, glanced at him weakly, and said lazily, "Two hundred rupees." drive
