Chapter 418: Corpse Text
The old man drove the car, pulling the donkey that Lu Yangming turned into and the sheep that Lu Hongyu turned into to lead the way in front.
Zhang Chu also drove the car by himself, following behind the old man's car.
Half an hour later, I came to a rural village.
It was now five o'clock in the morning, the countryside was still very peaceful, and the old man took Zhang Chu and them to a small courtyard.
At this time, everyone got out of the car and came to the door of the small courtyard.
It seems that this small compound has not been inhabited for a long time.
The gate is locked, and through the gap in the door, you can see that the yard is full of weeds.
The old man did not open the door immediately, but came to the middle of the road not far from the gate, and said to Zhang Chu: "Sir, when I met the coffin, the coffin stopped in this place. ”
Zhang Chu nodded: "So, the treasure is also buried in this small courtyard?" ”
The old man nodded suddenly: "That's right! ”
At the same time, the old man sighed for a while: "Actually, our family has already bought a house in the city by selling donkey meat for fire, and this small courtyard has long been inhabited, and there are still many people who want to buy my small courtyard before." ”
"However, when I thought that I had buried a lot of gold, silver and jewelry here, I didn't sell this small courtyard, and I could be regarded as a memory for myself."
Zhang Chu glanced at the small courtyard and said, "The roof tiles are low and dilapidated, and there are bats coming in and out, this is not like burying gold and silver jewelry." ”
"Huh?" The old man was stunned for a moment: "Sir, I don't understand what you are saying. ”
At this time, Zhang Chu said: "Generally speaking, if there are gold, silver and jewelry buried in this courtyard, the tiles on the eaves will not be pressed down, and there will be no bats to move in, but swallows frolicking. ”
"In your small courtyard, there is no wealth stored in it, and the gold, silver and jewelry are not buried in this small courtyard."
The old man suddenly exclaimed: "Impossible, I remember clearly at the time, after getting the treasures, I found a red cloth in this courtyard, wrapped the treasures, and buried them." ”
Zhang Chu didn't explain much, but said, "Open the courtyard and go in and have a look." ”
It took a lot of effort for the old man to open the rusty lock.
Zhang Chu followed the old man into the courtyard.
Then the old man said, "Sir, you will take a look in the courtyard first, and I will go and take out the silver ticket." ”
At this time, the hot pot followed Zhang Chu's side, sniffing hard with his nose, trying to find the treasure through the smell.
Zhang Chu saw that the hot pot was working so hard, and immediately smiled: "Don't smell it, that treasure is not in this small courtyard at all." ”
When he heard the hot pot, he immediately fell to the ground, no longer in vain.
Not long after, the old man came out with an old book, and the silver ticket was sandwiched between the old book.
"Sir, you see, it's this silver ticket, I've always kept it!" The old man said.
Zhang Chu took the silver ticket and found that the text on it was distorted, and if he looked closely, some lines were even moving, looking as if an earthworm was crawling.
Zhang Chu's eyes suddenly shrank: "Huh? It turned out to be a corpse! ”
Generally speaking, the characters used by people in the yang world are yang, and the words used by beings in the underworld are yin.
But in addition to Yin and Yang, there is also an extremely rare script called corpse script, which is used by high-level zombies.
But this kind of writing is rarely seen, because since cremation became commonplace, zombies have been scarce.
Moreover, if zombies want to use words, they need to cultivate to an extremely high level, so this kind of writing only exists in legends.
Unexpectedly, this silver ticket was actually written in corpse script.
At this time, the old man asked, "Mr. Zhang, can you see where those treasures are?" ”
Zhang Chu nodded and said, "According to the information above, your treasure should be hidden in your ancestral house." ”
"Ancestral home?" The old man frowned slightly, and he pointed to the courtyard behind him: "This is my ancestral house!" My father and mother were all sent away from this house, and there was no other ancestral house. ”
However, Zhang Chu shook his head: "It's not here." ”
"Where is that?" The old man asked.
Zhang Chu stared at the old man, deduced a little in his heart, and then Zhang Chu said, "You are not born to your parents." ”
The old man was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Yes, I brought it from my third uncle's room." ”
This old man's father is actually his third uncle.
Because his father couldn't have children, but his third uncle gave birth to more than a dozen children in his family, and he couldn't support so many children at that time.
Therefore, the old man's father brought a child from his third uncle and raised him as his own son.
This kind of thing was very common in the countryside in the past, when one of the brothers could not have children, he would bring a child from the elder brother or younger brother and live the same life.
Zhang Chu suddenly said: "That treasure is alive, recognize the ancestor, you go to the ancestral house of your third uncle's family to look for it, you will definitely find it." ”
When the old man heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up: "The ancestral house of my third uncle's family? Let's go, let's see! ”
Soon, the old man took Zhang Chu and them to an abandoned yard, which was also full of weeds, and there were a few walnut trees in it, but because no one managed them, they grew very poorly.
At this time, the old man said: "My third uncle has also passed away for many years, and this ancestral house has been idle. ”
This is the current situation in the countryside, many old houses, after the death of the old people, are empty, will no longer be inhabited, a large number of people have left the countryside and gone to the city.
At this moment, Zhang Chu held the silver ticket in his hand and said to the old man: "If you want to find those treasures, you need to use this silver ticket, you can only cast spells once, and after you find the treasures, you don't want to bury them." ”
"Good!" The old man agreed.
At this time, Zhang Chu said: "Find some firewood from this courtyard." ”
Hot pot and the old man hurriedly set their hands to the yard looking for firewood, and after a short time, they built a small pile of firewood.
At this time, Zhang Chu said: "Old man, you lit this fire yourself, then burned the silver ticket, kowtowed to the fire a few times, and begged Grandma Corpse King to show you the way." ”
The old man then lit the fire and burned the silver ticket according to Zhang Chu's words.
Then, after kneeling in front of the fire, he kowtowed a few times, and began to chanter, "Grandma Corpse King, please be merciful and tell me where the treasure is." Grandma Corpse King, please ......"
After the old man had muttered a few words, the fire suddenly went out, and a puff of smoke came out.
Immediately afterwards, the puff of smoke turned into the appearance of a woman more than half a meter tall and walked in the small courtyard.
When the old man saw this, his face turned pale with fright.
But then, he reacted again, this is the "Corpse King Grandma" that Zhang Chu asked him to beg.
So, the old man kowtowed to the smoke figure first, and after kowtowing a few times, the smoke figure actually stopped under a plum tree, she pointed to the plum tree, and disappeared directly.
Zhang Chu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "This is it, dig!" ”
The old man was so excited that he didn't go looking for a shovel, but went straight to digging.
The hot pot is also happy, and the two paws are like hot wheels, planing hard.
After a while, the old man's hand suddenly touched a piece of red cloth, and he was suddenly excited: "Found it!" ”
At this time, Zhang Chu also helped, and quickly dug out a big red cloth bag.
When I opened it, it was full of gold and silver jewelry, dazzling.
