Chapter 121: Soul Suppression Tower
Zhuang Youjie saw him being struck down by lightning from a distance, and he exclaimed in fright, and he didn't care about his foot pain, so he rushed over to check.
The innkeeper on the side was also startled, shouting something in dialect while also deducting his cigarette pouch to save people.
When Zhuang Youjie ran over, he found that Liang Yuanque was not actually struck by lightning, and he turned out because he was dodging the lightning strike.
The pouring rain slowly accumulated mud on the ground, and he rolled over like this, and rolled himself into a mud monkey.
"If you don't listen, you'll almost be unlucky!" Zhuang Youjie was relieved to see that he was fine, and couldn't help but blame him a few words.
Liang Yuanque got up from the ground and wiped the mud off his face with his hands, "No, it's not me who struck this thunder. ”
As he spoke, he looked at the collapsed stone tower.
Zhuang Youjie was drenched by the heavy rain, and shivered uncontrollably at this time,
"Difficult, could it be that this stone tower is actually a lightning rod?"
In fact, the first thing that came to his mind was some stories with superstitious flavors, after all, the scene in this neighborhood was too strange under the heavy rain.
Liang Yuanque shook off Zhuang Youjie's hand holding him, touched his waist that had just hurt and walked back to the bottom of the tower.
Due to the lightning strike just now, that white bone no longer had the appearance of being stable just now, and it was blown up.
Zhuang Youjie followed him, "Could it be that this thunder is at the bottom of this tower...... Oh! ”
As he spoke, he saw the skeleton at the bottom of the tower, screamed in fright, and jumped behind Liang Yuanqi to hold his shoulder.
"This, this, why is there this ...... here?"
"It's not surprising, this is a soul tower." Liang Yuanque whispered, crouching down to check the shallow pit at the bottom of the tower.
He wanted to find something like a tree branch to pull the bones, but there were no trees nearby, not even grass, and there were no tools to take advantage of.
Liang Yuanque could only frown, rolled up his sleeves and reached out to pinch a leg bone,
"Sister, how offended you are!"
Zhuang Youjie, who was behind him, watched his movements, and only felt his heart beating.
I know I'm offending you and still doing this, this is a corpse, hey!
Liang Yuanque pulled the bones apart, and to his disappointment, there was nothing at the bottom of the pit.
He didn't give up, so he used the big stick bone to pull the soil underneath.
The soil here is very soft, and when the wind blows, it is very soft, and now it is very soft even when it is wet, and it is not difficult to pick it up.
This behavior is really a standard deviant in the eyes of most people, Zhuang Youjie's eyes widened in shock, and the innkeeper persuaded him,
"Oh, little brother, it's a bit wrong for you to use someone's thigh bone to pull mud, right?"
Liang Yuanque didn't care so much, the corpses he had seen could fill a few train wagons, and there was no taboo in his heart.
There was nothing in the dirt below the bottom of the tower, and there were no signs of lightning strikes on the ground due to heavy rain.
Liang Yuanque had just seen lightning fall to the bottom of the tower with thunder, and he couldn't judge the specific atmosphere.
Zhuang Youjie was particularly uneasy in his heart, and asked Liang Yuanque again and again,
"What the hell are you looking for? Could there be a corpse down here? ”
There was a torrential rain above his head, and he was covered in sludge on his body, Liang Yuanque felt uncomfortable all over his body, and irritability inevitably rose in his heart, and he shouted at Zhuang Youjie,
"Don't talk yet!"
Zhuang Youjie's eyelids jumped in fright, and he quickly pursed his mouth.
There was nothing at the bottom of the pit, so Liang Yuanque set his eyes on the pit wall again, and dug twice on the pit wall with his leg bones, digging out an object that reflected bright light.
He reached out and took out the thing and handed it to Zhuang Youjie behind him.
Zhuang Youjie took it in his hand and took a closer look and found that it was a piece of steel with an irregular shape.
As soon as he saw this thing, he understood in his heart, "Oh, it turns out that this thunder was attracted by this thing!" ”
But with this small piece of steel alone, it is a little too unreliable, and Liang Yuanque dug a few more times on the surrounding pit wall, and dug out several such steel blocks.
"Could it be that this is part of the Feng Shui Bureau?" Liang Yuanque looked at these steel blocks, and couldn't understand what kind of bureau needed to use steel to guide lightning on a white bone?
Moreover, if the stone tower covered with it does not fall, it is estimated that these components of steel will not attract thunder.
He looked at the lump of steel, squinting his eyes as he figured out why.
Maybe it was the master who calculated that the heavy rain would collapse the stone tower, and someone would definitely come to check if the stone tower collapsed, so ......
Hey, it's not the corpse at the bottom of the tower that counts these steel blocks, it's the people who come to check it.
If you don't dodge in time, although you can't guarantee absolutely, there is a high chance that you will be killed directly by lightning and fall into it to accompany the sister who doesn't know her identity.
When he was just struck by lightning, Liang Yuanque's heart did not fluctuate, but at this moment, he was nervous.
Because what he hates most in his life is being calculated.
After a delay here, the three people in the rain felt that the rain seemed to be gradually decreasing.
Liang Yuanque looked up at the sky, saw that the distance was gradually brightening, and knew that the rain was about to stop, and the thunder would not come again, so he handed over the steel block to Zhuang Youjie with confidence.
And he himself walked to the collapsed stone tower, wanting to see who was doing such a game.
The tower is a kind of building that is quite common in China and neighboring countries, and there are different classifications according to different functions.
It is said that this thing was originally built to store Buddha bones, but with the development of the times, it gradually derived many practical effects.
But most of them are still the same as the gongs in the play, while they have practical value, they pay more attention to symbolic meaning.
The stone tower in front of you is not very high, and when you stand it, it is about as high as a beam wall, and the stone used is the same, and the carving technique is also very rough.
The tower is not tall, but the top of the tower is disproportionately large, like a large black hat.
Liang Yuanque squatted down again and touched the tower with his hand, only to find that the tower was carved with dense words, using the technique of Yin carving.
Because the carving is so small, it is difficult to see under such a dark sky, and Liang Yuanque can only roughly judge what words are on it by touching it.
By touching a few Sanskrit translations, he judged that it was a scripture engraved on it.
Yo, maybe this is a soul tower!
Liang Yuanque thought that the boss said that this tower was built by the Lin family under the guidance of a master, and he thought that what they meant was to suppress the bones at the bottom of the tower.
I thought of the eldest brother I met on the train and said that the Lin family was killed by ghosts, could it be that the white bones at the bottom of this tower are the ghosts who made trouble?
