Chapter 198: The Origin of the Mass Grave

Xiaoyun glanced at Chen Dong, did not speak, but walked quietly to his house.

Captain Zhang wanted to say something, but seeing Xiao Yuntie's blue face, he didn't say anything in the end.

I can feel that both Xiaoyun and Captain Zhang are full of complicated feelings about this mass grave.

This made Chen Dong even more curious about this pit.

Xiaoyun and Captain Zhang are both ordinary people, and they have traveled more than ten kilometers for a while.

Back in the village, Xiaoyun's home is at the very edge of the village, and strictly speaking, it has even broken away from the village.

The house is also very dilapidated.

Seeing this, Chen Dong couldn't help but say, "The people in the village reject you? ”

"Nope."

Xiaoyun just replied lightly, and there was no follow-up.

"Don't be surprised, Xiaoyun has some bad memories of the mass grave, so you asked about the mass grave may have reminded her of the past."

Captain Zhang smiled and explained, but still didn't say anything about the mass grave.

Chen Dong didn't bother to continue asking.

It's a big deal to wait for the things in the pit to come out at night, he asked himself.

The three of them entered the house.

Chen Dong looked around and found that the interior of the house was very clean and tidy, and it was full of a faint fragrance.

The furnishings of the room are also very simple, a bed, a few bamboo chairs and a wooden table.

Further inside, there is a desk, which is filled with yellow rune paper, as well as cinnabar pens and other evil spirit-repelling props.

Finally, there is a statue of the patriarch, which should be Zhong Kui.

Xiao Yun took off the black cloak, and suddenly revealed a youthful and beautiful face.

"You sit by yourself for a while, there is still some time before the sunset, and it should be safe during this time."

Xiaoyun said, and then walked to the deepest part of the room to offer a stick of incense to the statue of the patriarch.

'Knock Knock~'

At this moment, there was a knock at the door.

Captain Zhang went to open the door, and it was an old lady in the village who came.

The eldest lady was holding a lunch box in her hand, with a kind face.

"Hey, Xiao Zhang is also here, you didn't go back to the city." When the old lady saw Captain Zhang, her eyes were bent like crescent moons, and she looked very relieved.

"Well, Xiaoyun said that today's matter is a bit serious, let me avoid it here."

Captain Zhang didn't see the gossip fire in the eyes of the old lady, and hurriedly explained.

"Ao, that's the case, I said Xiao Zhang, you are not too young, this marriage is still more important...... Oh, seeing that Xiaoyun definitely doesn't have time to cook after a busy day, I made some more for you today. ”

As she spoke, the old lady saw Chen Dong in the room and said in surprise: "There are still guests?" Oh, three of you, I'm afraid this is not enough to eat, you wait for me to go get some more. ”

The old lady glanced at Chen Dong deeply, looked at Chen Dong's handsome appearance, and patted Captain Zhang's shoulder meaningfully.

"Auntie, I'll go with you to get it, I can't eat the food you made for nothing."

Chen Dong got up with a very sunny smile on his face.

"Oh, this guy is so sensible."

The eldest lady naturally agreed, and her good impression of Chen Dong also increased a lot.

"Captain Zhang, I'll go back as soon as I go."

After Chen Dong admonished him, he followed the old lady and left.

Taking the rice is secondary, Chen Dong mainly wants to ask about the mass grave through this old lady.

After a simple exchange, Chen Dong naturally led the topic to the mass grave.

According to the old lady, this mass grave was specially used to dispose of the corpses of villagers when the island invaded back then.

A hundred years ago, the islanders invaded Yun Province and built fortifications from ten miles and eight villages.

During the construction process, if a worker was injured or physically exhausted, he was thrown into this mass grave.

After the fortifications were built, the archipelago beasts gathered the villagers of a dozen nearby villages and pushed them into the deep pit.

There is not one in ten villagers in a dozen villages!

The more the old lady talked, the more angry she became, and finally her eyes turned red.

"At that time, I was young, and my mother and I hid in a well to escape, but my father ......"

The old lady wiped away her tears and continued: "At that time, the island devils shot at the pit and left, maybe there were too many people in the pit, many people were only slightly injured, and they couldn't get up at all when they were pressed by so many people. ”

"The people in the pit screamed desperately, and the screaming lasted for three days and three nights before it stopped."

"I will never forget those three days and three nights, when my mother and I even hoped that my father would die happily and not suffer such torture."

"Three days later, it rained, and the muddy water from the surrounding mountains gathered into the pit to cover the dead villagers, but the dirt soon turned dark red."

No wonder Xiaoyun and Captain Zhang refused to say that what happened in this mass grave was so heavy.

Island country...... A nation that is annoying no matter what the period!

"Auntie, what does this mass grave have to do with Xiaoyun? Why did you come to her beforehand? Chen Dong asked.

"Xiaoyun, this child is a famous goddess in our village, of course, this is a means passed down from her ancestors."

The eldest lady sighed and said helplessly: "Xiaoyun, this child, is also a hard life. ”

"The people in the pit died resentfully, resentfully, and it didn't take long for something strange to happen, it was Xiaoyun's grandfather who suppressed it, and the grievances of tens of thousands of people were so easy to deal with, Xiaoyun's grandfather died not long after, and before he died, he asked Xiaoyun's grandfather to throw the body into the mass grave, and he hoped that he could try to persuade the villagers in the pit after he died."

"Xiaoyun's grandfather took over the accusation of suppressing the mass grave, but the resentment grew deeper and deeper as time went on, and finally broke out again one day decades ago."

"After a night of ghosts crying wolves, the mass grave finally quieted down again, maybe it was Xiaoyun's grandfather who played a role, this time Xiaoyun's grandfather did not die, but left the root of the disease."

The more Chen Dong listened, the tighter his brows furrowed.

The resentment of tens of thousands of people, if it is said that the resentment has just formed at the beginning, it is not very powerful, and Xiaoyun's grandfather can deal with it, which is understandable.

But the longer the resentment goes, the more serious it becomes, even if Grandpa Xiaoyun helps him, it is impossible for Xiaoyun's grandfather to suppress the evil cult by himself.

Could it be that Xiaoyun's grandfather is a monk?

Later, Xiaoyun's parents took over the responsibility of guarding the mass grave, more than ten years ago...... When Xiaoyun was five or six years old, Xiaoyun's parents left here and never returned. ”

Speaking of this, the eldest lady was very angry and cursed: "Two ruthless things, Xiaoyun is so young, so she lost her to her grandfather, for more than ten years!" Xiaoyun is twenty years old! Haven't been back to see it once! ”

Chen Dong: "......"

After the old lady cursed, the expression on her face immediately became sad: "About when Xiaoyun was ten years old, her grandfather's condition was more serious, how can there be a decent hospital in this mountain village, Xiaoyun goes up the mountain every day to collect medicine for her grandfather's treatment." ”

"August 15th...... Yes, it was August 15, Xiaoyun's grandfather suddenly said that he wanted to eat mooncakes, and Xiaoyun's girl knocked on the door to ask us to borrow mooncakes. ”

"And then?" Chen Dong couldn't help but ask.

"Later, the moon cakes were borrowed, and the grandfather and grandson happily ate the moon cakes, and ...... after the full moon night," the eldest lady sighed.

Hearing this result, Chen Dong breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

The eldest lady shook her head and continued: "But the next day, Xiaoyun woke up, and she was left in the whole house, and there were leftover mooncakes and a note on the table. ”

Chen Dong had already expected something, and asked in a deep voice, "What is written on the note?" ”

"The note reads: Good granddaughter, grandpa doesn't want to be a burden to you anymore, and finally grandpa will help you again, don't forget what grandpa told you."

The eldest lady said with red eyes: "After the old bone put Xiaoyun to sleep, he knocked on the door of every house in the village with his sick body, hoping that we could take care of Xiaoyun, and then walked in the direction of the mass grave. ”

After that, Xiaoyun took on the accusation of the goddess.

"Shhh

Chen Dong took a deep breath, even if he heard this result, it was not a taste in his heart.

It's really hard to imagine how a ten-year-old girl can survive.

came to the eldest mother's house, and after getting the meal, Chen Dong turned around and prepared to leave.

"Hey, young man, wait!"

The eldest lady called out to Chen Dong: "Young man, seeing that you are so interested in Xiaoyun, you two should not be engaged in a match, right?" ”
