In this way, this earthen valley is very problematic, and if we want to solve the secret of the old turtle, it is necessary for us to make a trip ourselves.

This time, I estimated that I would inevitably have to deal with local villagers, so I bought two boxes of soft Chinese at a roadside store, and then took a car directly with Langnie and rushed to Tuyugou, which is hundreds of miles away!

After getting off the bus, it was getting late, and not far in the line of sight was a row of low houses, and every house in the village closed their doors and windows, and there was no light in sight.

It's just that I can faintly hear the constant cries in the village!

Lonnie and I looked at each other, and then walked down a path towards Tuyugou.

Passing through the houses on both sides of the path, we reached the center of the village in a short time.

There is a small square here, with three sticks of incense in the center of the square, and many villagers are surrounding it, kneeling on the ground, crying and talking.

Lonnie and I crept over and heard the villagers crying.

"Turtle, please come back quickly, we can't live without you!"

"The turtle is gone, what are we going to do in the future!"

"The turtle left, the evil ghost came to the world, it seems that Tuyugou is about to usher in a catastrophe!"

Listening to the cries of the villagers, I couldn't help but feel a wave of doubts, Divine Turtle?

Could it be the one that Gao Huihui bought from the fish market to stew soup?

It seemed that I had to ask the local villagers for verification, and with this in mind, I walked up to an old man and patted him on the shoulder.

The old man was crying with snot and tears, and he slowly turned his head and glanced at Lonnie and me, and a look of doubt appeared on his wrinkled face.

"Who are you?"

The old man asked us.

"Uncle, we came from the city to camp nearby, and we heard the crying in the village just now, so we came over to see what happened."

I hurried to the old man.

"Oh, it's from the city......"

The old man sighed and said slowly: "You guys hurry up, our Tuyugou will soon be in trouble!" ”

"What's the matter, uncle, why do you say that?"

I asked, a little puzzled.

"Because the turtle that has guarded our village for decades has left."

The old man said helplessly.

"What turtles? Why is it that when the turtle leaves, the village will be in great trouble? ”

As I spoke, I handed over two cigarettes.

The old man was a little impatient, but when he saw me handing over the cigarette, it was difficult to refuse, so he took it and immediately told me about the past of Tuyugou.

It turned out that the information sent to me by Gao Huanghuang before was not wrong, this Tuyugou was indeed ransacked by a group of bandits more than 80 years ago, except for those who ran out to take refuge in advance of the news, the entire village was slaughtered, and hundreds of people died!

After killing the villagers, the robbers cut off their heads, threw them into an old well in the house of the old rich man in the west of the village, and left.

After the bandits left, the villagers who had gone into hiding returned to the village one after another, collected the corpses of their relatives, and continued to live a tenacious life.

It didn't take long for all kinds of strange things to happen in the village, many villagers disappeared for no reason, and many people said that they often saw people coming out of the old well in the middle of the night and wandering the streets.

The villagers panicked at ten o'clock, so they invited an old Taoist priest from a nearby town and asked him to help him outperform the souls.

The old Taoist priest walked around the old well, but shook his head, saying that those who died in vain were too resentful to be exceeded, and they would inevitably turn into powerful ghosts after a long time, and they could only be suppressed.

Immediately, Lao Dao took out a small turtle from his arms, tied it to a red rope, and put it into the old well.

After that, he instructed the villagers to buy tribute every year and hold a ceremony to worship the turtle, so that Tuyugou could be kept safe for a hundred years.

Five days ago, it was the day of the village to hold a ceremony to worship the turtle, everyone beat gongs and drums, pooled money to buy tribute, and wanted to hold a lively ceremony, but just before the ceremony, people found that the turtle in the well was gone!

"That turtle has been deep at the bottom of the well, how did you find it missing?"

I asked the old man with some confusion.

"The turtle is extraordinary, the turtle shell can emit green light, every year when the ceremony is held, we have to look into the well, and only after seeing the green light emitted by the turtle will the ceremony be held."

The old man explained: "But before the ceremony was held a few days ago, everyone was surprised to find that there was no green light in the well anymore, and everyone knew that the turtle had left!" ”

"Back then, the old Taoist once said that once the turtle leaves halfway, within three days, the souls in the well will be revived, and then the entire Tuyugou will face a catastrophe, and no one will be spared!"

At this, the old man's face turned pale, looked at Lonnie and me, and shook his head weakly.

"Young people, you should leave quickly, and don't let yourself suffer unwarranted disasters because of the affairs of our village."

"Thank you uncle, you have to be careful."

I arched my hand and pulled Lonnie away.

Pulling Lonnie away from the square, we did not leave Tuyugou, but took the opportunity to turn into a nearby alley.

"What do you think?"

I asked Lonnie.

"I think we can go to that old well and look for clues, maybe we will find something."

I nodded: "Makes sense, I think so too." ”

So, together with Lonnie, as the old man had said, I walked towards the west end of Tuyugou, and in a short time we came to the outside of the village.

Sure enough, there was a dilapidated house outside the village, standing in the night.

This house has seven entrances and seven exits, high walls and red tiles, and it can be seen that it should have been a large family a few decades ago, but the two walls have collapsed, and the house has long been dilapidated, and I don't know how long it has been abandoned.

Lonnie and I walked through the collapsed wall into the courtyard, and saw that the yard was covered with grass, and in the southwest corner there was a plane tree, and under the tree there was an old well, and it was covered with a large stone.

Before I got closer, I could feel that in the old well, there was a yin and evil aura, constantly emanating from it.

It seems that there is indeed evil in this old well.

Lonnie and I walked in and walked around the well, wondering if we should go in and check it out, when a frightened voice came from outside.

"Who are you?"

When I looked up, I saw a villager with a flashlight, shining electric light on me and Lonnie.

I was about to explain, but the villager was already shouting.

"Come on, come on! There are two thieves here! ”

After a short time, the villagers who were holding a sacrifice ceremony nearby all ran over.
