Chapter 132: How dare you eat?
Although Zhuge Wolong is just a scholar who can be called erudite, it is a bit too much for him to know how to read traces.
But the old man Zuo actually agreed with him, and also opened a few rooms to take a look.
"The traces of the daily life of a family of five.
Five coffins, it seems, are all dead!
The coffin stopped for two or three days, and it was already carried out before the first seven days, I am afraid that there are no relatives at home! ”
Old man Zuo said more precisely, inferring how many people there are from the traces of life in the house, and then inferring how many days it has been parked according to the traces of the coffin, and then inferring whether there are still relatives in the family.
After all, in this year, it is the rule for the coffin to be parked for seven days before being nailed for burial.
On the one hand, relatives who are far away can come to see the deceased for the last time, and in these days when there are no cars or horses and only walking on their feet, it may take a day or two to go back and forth between a few high mountains.
And what if it's further afield?
On the other hand, there are a lot of people who faked their deaths in these years, and they stopped for seven days to prevent people from being buried alive.
This is the reason why people used to die and need to stop for seven days.
But judging from the traces of the coffin parked in this courtyard in front of me for less than seven days, that is to say, the people in this courtyard have no relatives and do not need to stop for so long.
There is no need to pay attention to these taboos, after stopping for two or three days to confirm that the person is really dead and not fake, you can bury him.
But the family is dead, and it was buried after only two or three days, so it feels a little weird to think about it.
But the people present didn't feel afraid, after all, it had nothing to do with them in the weird case, they weren't chivalrous, and they weren't quick to catch the yamen.
Suddenly, the ghost of the wedding dress, Ah Wu, gently leaned over to Chen Yun and said, "In this room, I smell a trace of demonic energy!" ”
Sure enough, Chen Yun felt like Conan, Conan died wherever he went, and there were demons and ghosts wherever he went!
However, my luck is monstrous!
Not a scourge!
This situation of going where to die and where to die, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a person with monstrous luck!
"Demons?
Can you know what kind of monster it is? ”
Chen Yun's hand had already appeared in the Mountain God Soldier, and he had already practiced perfectly when he took out something from the Dragon Ball.
As if he had spoken, his mouth was lightly open, and the things he wanted to take out could be taken anywhere in front of him, just like taking the objects in.
Military ration bags are transferable, and under the guidance of the scrolls of the Mountains and Seas Sutra, Chen Yun has used the Land Divine Seal to withdraw the ownership of the military ration bags.
Then the old man Zuo easily recognized the owner of the military ration bag with the help of the land god seal, so he had a storage bag that could hold thousands of catties of items.
Therefore, at the same time that Chen Yun spit out the Mountain God Soldier from his mouth, Old Man Zuo also took out his own blade from the military food bag in his hand.
Zhuge Wolong is a scholar, he retreated very consciously, and it is a credit not to get in the way at this time.
"Oops, it's okay!
There is only a trace of demonic energy in our courtyard now, not much!
But in the courtyard where you knocked on the door just now, Childe, there is a strong demonic spirit, and I'm afraid that something bad will happen tonight! ”
Ah Wu, who was dressed in a red wedding dress, reached out and gently stroked the hair on his sideburns at his delicate face, and chuckled after glancing at Chen Yun charmingly.
If you don't know that she is a female ghost, her delicate and graceful figure and the beautiful woman's usual unintentional smile can simply seduce people.
No matter how much Chen Yun despised Ah Wu, a female ghost who couldn't fight, but she was a ghost king after all, if she wasn't born restrained by him, how could she be so embarrassed to be subdued?
Otherwise, how could the ghosts around her obey her at the beginning!
Therefore, some basic common sense, through the collusion between demons and ghosts, is still much clearer than these people.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside the courtyard gate, and Chen Yun and the others raised their eyes.
It turned out that it was the man in the courtyard where they knocked on the door just now, who only opened his own door by a crack, and actually walked in.
Although he was a little nervous, he still held a tray with a few bowls of rice on the tray, so he pushed open the courtyard door that was not closed and walked in, and said urgently as he walked: "I know that you don't close the courtyard door!"
How can you not close the gates! ”
Chen Yun hurriedly stepped forward and arched his hand: "Big brother, what is this?" ”
The man hurriedly handed over the tray in his hand, and there were only four large bowls of rice on it, each bowl of rice covered with a piece of pickle.
Chen Yun was stunned for a moment, but he still quickly reached out to take it, and just wanted to say something, but before he could open his mouth, the other party preemptively said it.
After the man saw that Chen Yun took over the tray of rice, he said urgently: "There are some strange things in this village and in the mountains, and when I saw you just now, I didn't want to pay attention to it.
But I am worried that something will happen to you walking in the mountains at night, so I remind you that there is a yard behind you for your night's sleep.
Seeing that you didn't bring dry food or anything, these bowls of rice were eaten first, and the mountains were not as good as the outside, so you could make do with them.
In addition, when you go into the house early tonight to sleep, remember that the gate of the courtyard should be closed tightly, and the doors of the courtyard should be closed when you sleep.
Also, whoever calls the door, don't open it!
Not even if any of you tell anyone else to open the door!
If it does, it's a disaster!
Remember? ”
Chen Yun asked with some confusion, "What happened?" ”
The man looked at the sky and didn't explain again: "It's going to be dark, I'm going back, it's too late."
Remember, close the door of the courtyard at night, close the door of the house, and don't be curious, let alone open the door, no matter what you hear! ”
After saying that, the man turned around and left, and when he walked to the gate of the courtyard, he once again echoed Chen Yundao, who sent him out of the gate: "From now on, close the courtyard door!" ”
Chen Yun nodded: "Well, close it immediately!" ”
The man hurriedly walked back, the sky just got dark and he could still see the road, but it was a little blurry farther away, and at the moment before this kind of dark sky, the man who hurriedly walked at the junction of darkness and light, the shadow behind him was actually struggling.
Zhuge Wolong let out a long sigh: "It is said that poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people, but there are also simple people!"
So let's ...... Dine? ”
This is actually in the tone of a question sentence.
The corn in the mountains is coarse and has no oil or water, so if you take this to fill up, you will eat more.
So the four bowls of rice sent by that man, each bowl is the kind of big sea bowl, which can top three or four bowls of ordinary people, which shows that the people in the mountains are indeed gracious.
It's just that this corn is a bit of a stretch, but there is a large piece of pickles lying on top of each big bowl of corn, which is a bit too generous!
For a man in the mountains, such a generous gift to each passing guest a large piece of pickles, you must know that pickles in these years can represent salt, salt is very expensive!
Although not as expensive as meat!
After all, most civilian families now have pickles for dinner only one day every three to five days.
On weekdays, the family holds the rice bowl, looks at the pickles hanging on the wall, and looks at the food.
But now, the man in the mountains actually gave four large pieces of pickles so generously, which made people feel so luxurious!
"How dare you eat!"
Zhuge Wolong looked at the two grandparents and grandchildren who were holding corn in their mouths dumbfounded, and the pickles were fragrant.
"You can see the wrong rice at a glance, you two really dare to eat it?"
