Chapter 469: Soul into a Black Hole, All Kinds of Rumors!
Just when Wangwang and I were puzzled, the old man in the distance suddenly shouted: "Dust to dust, dust to dust, wandering around, where is home? Come, come, come with me! I will arrange a nest for you, shelter from the wind and rain, and be happy." ”
Speaking of this, the old man took out a handful of paper money from the pocket of his jacket and raised it into the air.
At this moment, I saw one by one souls coming out of the grave in front of me. These spirits didn't seem to be conscious, and just followed the old man.
The old man looked at it, then turned and walked back. Want Want and I were worried about being discovered by him, so we hurriedly hid behind a locust tree on the side.
The old man walked in front, and in such a short time, the kung fu actually followed dozens of souls.
"Where is he going to take these spirits?" and I decided to follow suit, driven by curiosity.
The old man was about two or three hundred meters away from us, and Wangwang and I hurriedly followed after us. Unexpectedly, this old man actually returned to the mysterious cave with these souls.
The old man put the oil lamp in his hand at the entrance of the cave, and then fell to his knees with a "plop". The souls that had been led here stood obediently by the oil lamps.
Suddenly, I saw a black whirlwind floating out of the cave. These spirits were swept away by the whirlwind and carried into the cave.
The whirlwind disappeared, and the old man got up, and then lifted the oil lamp at the entrance of the cave and blew it out. After dealing with this qiē, I saw him walking in the direction of the village.
Looks like it's over. After the old man left, Wangwang and I both came to the cave.
I looked inside, and the light was too dim to see anything. I shook my head helplessly and decided to go back to the village with Want Wang.
Want Want took out his mobile phone and looked at it, and then suddenly said, "Big brother, do you know what day it is?"
I was stunned for a moment, then shook my head and said I didn't know. "Today is the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar, and the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar every month is the day with the heaviest yin. What do you think this old man is trying to lure these ghosts for?"
I thought about it for a moment, and then guessed, "You said this cave could lead to the underworld?"
Want Want smiled and said, "I don't think it's that simple! Maybe there is a big guy living in this cave, and these ghosts are probably its monthly snacks." ”
"What? You said there was going to be a big monster in there? How did you know for sure?"
Want Want said confidently: "There must be something wrong with that whirlwind just now, when it is dawn, let's go in and take a look, and the truth will be revealed in one qiē." ”
I nodded in agreement. The two of us hadn't eaten for a day, and we had nowhere to go now. I simply picked up some dead branches in the forest not far from the cave and lit them.
I poured the mineral water into an iron lunch box and boiled it on the fire. In about ten minutes, the water boiled.
I took out the instant noodles again and soaked two bowls of noodles. Eat a hot meal, or you won't have to freeze this night. After eating instant noodles, we lay down by the fire for the night. After a few hours, it was finally dawn.
I rubbed my eyes, looked at the sky, and stretched. Want Want got up earlier than I did, and now the fire has been lit again.
We drank some hot water and re-entered the village without washing our faces. The people in the village got up early, and I saw three or four old people busy in the yard.
Some are drying grain, and some are busy preparing breakfast. But apart from these old men, not a single young man saw it.
Looking at these old people, a term comes to mind. The left-behind elderly, their children should work in the city, so there are only a few old people left to barely survive.
But what if something happens? I would like to advise these people who are working outside the country.
Although making money is important, if you can't do filial piety in front of your parents, you will be happy even if you become a billionaire?
The ancients said: The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, and the child wants to raise but does not wait. I think it's about a tragedy.
Instead of regretting it in the future, it is better to spend more time with your parents.
Want Want and I went straight into one of the houses, where an old couple lived, and they looked like they were already in their prime.
The skin like the bark of a dead tree, the chapped hands, and the back bent by the years all these made me feel a little unbearable.
When the two old men saw us enter the courtyard, they immediately asked in confusion, "Who are you looking for?"
Hearing this, I smiled slightly and said, "Uncle, we are here to ask you something." I want to know how to get to Lao Zhang's house?"
"Old Zhang's house, it's in the low house in front. You turn around and look, it's the house of the man who smokes from the chimney. ”
I looked in the direction the old man pointed, and at a glance I saw the dilapidated house that had fallen into disrepair and was a little leaning. Now the chimney is smoking, then it means that there is someone in the house.
"Thank you, old man!" Oh, yes, I have something to eat here, you can keep it!" With that, I took out a pack of ham sausages from my bag and two bags of biscuits and handed them them.
When the two old men saw it, they hurriedly refused. But at my insistence, they finally took it. There is not much money for this little thing, but I believe that for such an old man, it should be more warmth.
In less than five minutes, Want Want and I walked into the courtyard of Zhang Meng's house. At this moment, an old lady on crutches and with a water scoop with one hand came out of it.
She looked up at us and was stunned. "What are you doing, two young men, who are you looking for?"
Although I hate Zhang Meng to the core, I don't have any hatred for this old lady. "Auntie, hello! I want to ask, is your son's name Zhang Meng?"
"Zhang Meng? Yes, my son's name is Zhang Meng. You're his friends, aren't you?"
As soon as I heard this, I finally found Zhang Meng's house. "That's right, auntie. We are friends with Zhang Meng. Is he at home?"
Zhang Meng's mother shook her head and said, "My son hasn't come back to see me for more than a year, and I don't know where he is now." Alas......"
When Want Want and I heard this, we couldn't help but be a little speechless. "Auntie, didn't your son leave you any contact information? Where did he live, and didn't tell you?"
The old lady thought for a moment, and then said, "My son left me a note, but I can't read." The note seemed to have his phone number on it. If you're looking for him, I'll find you the note. ”
When I heard this, I was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Okay!
"No trouble, no trouble! My son's friend came to the house for the first time, and my old woman was too late to be happy. Oh, well, you two come in and sit down! It's early in the morning, it's cold outside. ”
Want Want and I looked at each other, and then followed the old lady into the house. As soon as we entered the house, we smelled a somewhat pungent stench. I followed the direction of the smell and saw that it was a jar of pickles that had grown hair and rotted. Is it really okay to eat pickles like this? How uncomfortable it is to smell like this every day.
Wangwang and I sat down on a small stool, and Zhang Meng's mother immediately helped us find his son's contact information.
It took half an hour before she handed me a crumpled note. I took the note and looked at it, and it was the name of a town and a mobile phone number underneath.
"Young man, will you see if you can contact my son?"
I smiled and nodded, "Auntie, I can get in touch! This is his address." Alright, since he's not at home, there's no need for us to stay here. We'll go first, so we won't bother you. With that, Want Want and I stood up and were about to leave.
When the old lady saw that we were leaving, she hurriedly stopped us and said, "That...... That young man, if you see my son, you can sue him, and I'll be fine. Don't worry about me. My greatest wish is that he can find a daughter-in-law, so that even if I leave, I can look at it. ”
Hearing this, I was touched somewhere in my heart. As the saying goes: The mother is worried about the child traveling thousands of miles, and the mother is not worried about traveling thousands of miles. Mother's love is the greatest love in the world. But how sad would this kind mother be if she knew that her son was a heinous brute?
I nodded heavily to her, "Auntie, don't worry, I'll help you convey it." See you soon!"
With that, I walked out of the house with Want Want. Now that Zhang Meng's address is available, all that remains is to find him.
As for the mysterious cave, let's take a look at it later when we have time. Wangwang and I walked straight out of the village and walked briskly down the mountain. It's in the middle of nowhere, and it's harder to get a ride than it is to get a ride. But when we got down the road, we came across a tractor that was going to town.
Now let's not talk about tractors, even if it's a horse-drawn carriage, we have to get on it. Walking this mountain path is simply torture.
The driver is an uncle with long eyebrows, and he looks like a good person. I asked him for a ride, and he agreed without saying a word.
Wangwang and I sat next to him, and we chatted with him without saying a word.
"What are you two guys doing here?"
I smiled and said, "We're going to Baoshan Village to find someone." ”
"What? Baoshan Village? Is there still that village? Didn't you hear that it had been banned a long time ago?"
When I heard this, I hurriedly asked, "Uncle, why is a village in the good end banned?"
The uncle sighed lightly and said, "It seems that you don't know, isn't there a coal mine under the village? After digging for many years, the coal was finally dug up and the coal mine collapsed." There were a lot of deaths, hundreds of them! Later, I heard that Baoshan Village was becoming haunted. At night, you can see ghosts wandering around the village, and those ghosts may be the souls of the dead buried in the coal mines! Who would dare to live in such a village? By the way, I also heard that an ancient tomb was dug up at the bottom of the mountain. However, because it was not accessible, the archaeological team did not excavate. ”
This uncle's words shocked my heart. The old man of Baoshan Village, who is emotional, attracts ghosts who have died in the coal mine.
I said, how can there be so many graves? As for the cave, if my guess is correct, it should be connected to the mysterious tomb!
