Chapter Twenty-Eight: Driving Stakes

Old Man Wang's eyes changed drastically, and his shoulders couldn't help but tremble.

Zhang Lingchuan sighed, put his arm around the old man's shoulders and led me into the coffin shop.

"Lao Wang, the deceased is gone, and the mourning is changing."

At this time, Wang Chongshan was already lying quietly in the coffin, as if he was asleep.

It's just that his face is already swollen and his skin is ulcerated.

Seeing this, Zhang Lingchuan pulled me and wanted to go back: "Lao Wang, we will visit you again tomorrow." ”

After walking a few steps outside, Old Man Wang's voice fluttered out.

"My old man Wang has made a coffin for a lifetime, who would have thought, now I have built a coffin for my son."

On the side of the hall, there is also a pile of carpenter's tools.

Presumably, this coffin was completed in the past two days.

"Don't go, I'll tell you everything I know today."

As he spoke, the old man burst into tears.

"Actually, I asked Chongshan to go to the Yellow River to find that ghost coffin."

Ghost coffin? Is there really a ghost coffin under the Yellow River?

"There has been such a legend since my great-grandfather's generation. Every other year, the turbid waters of the Yellow River become clear. ”

"At this time, the water thieves who live on the water will touch the river to fish for the treasures of the shipwrecks at the bottom of the river. It was at that time that it was rumored that under the Yellow River, there was a crystal coffin! ”

"The coffin was transparent, there was nothing in it, but it was firmly trapped under the river by a dozen iron chains."

A dozen chains?

Hearing this, I couldn't help but think of the iron chains tied to Wang Chongshan's people.

Zhang Lingchuan's face also changed: "What does this have to do with grimaces?" ”

Old man Wang sighed, his eyes full of pain.

"Among the people who went down to the river together was my grandfather. When he saw the crystal coffin from the river, he had a grimace mask on it! ”

"Before Grandpa Tai died, his body had undergone abnormal changes. He ......, "Speaking of this, Old Man Wang can't bear to talk about it anymore.

Zhang Lingchuan added: "He crossed death and went directly from a human to a monster, right?" ”

Old man Wang nodded: "My grandfather said that he invited a lot of Dharma kings to suppress him, and later his family warned us juniors that we should never approach the Yellow River. ”

I listened a little puzzled, since there were elders in the family who warned, why did Old Man Wang still let his son go to find the crystal coffin?

Zhang Lingchuan said: "Lao Wang, do you suspect that the crystal coffin is the source of the grimace?" ”

Old man Wang nodded lightly: "Only an extremely heavy yin qi can curb the grimace. ”

Zhang Lingchuan understood at this time: "No wonder you raised so many corpses in the coffin, it turned out to contain the grimace mask on your daughter's body." ”

Old man Wang sighed: "But this is also a symptom but not a cure!" You have also seen my daughter's strange appearance, people and corpses have coexisted for a long time, and sooner or later something will happen! ”

"Only by finding out the source can we really solve those grimaces!"

"Of course, there is another reason why I insisted on going to the mountains to find the coffin."

Old man Wang sighed and said that when his grandfather passed away, he kept muttering sorry for his grandfather.

"Because at the beginning, my grandfather said that as long as he was sent back to the bottom of the Yellow River and found the crystal coffin, the curse on his body could be lifted."

"But at the time, everyone saw him as a monster, and no one believed in my grandfather."

"In this way, they united many Taoist priests and Dharma kings and killed him......"

When I heard this, it dawned on me that Old Man Wang went to great lengths to ask Wang Chongshan to find the coffin, just to lift the curse of the grimace on his body.

Who knows, the world is impermanent, and people's hearts are unpredictable.

Wang Chongshan was designed by the water monkey in this way and was forced to become a pillar of the town.

"Are you underwater or have you seen that crystal coffin?" Old man Wang still asked us unwillingly.

But Zhang Lingchuan and I both shook our heads.

"When we went underwater, we didn't see the coffin. But the big chains you mentioned, we've seen them. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Lingchuan's eyes glanced at Wang Chongshan: "It's just that the iron chain is tied up by those corpse diggers." ”

Old man Wang's eyes were completely defeated, and he no longer had any vitality.

After getting the news, Zhang Lingchuan took me out of the coffin shop.

My heart was even heavier.

If you're going to get rid of this thing on me once and for all, you're going to have to find the crystal coffin.

However, the crystal coffin is gone, and now there is nowhere to find it.

Recalling what Zhang Lingchuan said to Old Man Wang, I felt a chill in my back.

The water monkey deliberately led us both down the river in order to make us completely die at the bottom of the river and become the pillar of the town.

I asked Zhang Lingchuan: "Boss, is this stake the same as the corpse of the town of Disgusting Sheng?" ”

He nodded, "Almost." As the saying goes, one life, two fortunes, three feng shui, four accumulations of yin virtue and five readings, and the stake is related to the layout of feng shui. ”

I probably understood something in my heart, and I heard the water monkey mention that he had put us under the river in order to set up a feng shui bureau for the evil dragon to spit out beads.

Driving raw piles, originating from the Luban technique, is also a kind of technique in the aversion to winning.

According to legend, Lu Ban believed that there were ghosts and gods in the land.

Breaking ground and building trees will inevitably disturb the ghosts and gods, so it is necessary to use human lives to appease the ghosts and gods.

"In ancient times, when the construction of bridges and roads could not be carried out smoothly, boys and girls were often used to drive piles."

Zhang Lingchuan glanced at me and added, "This is called filling the bridge with life." ”

He also said that Chen Lin, one of the "Seven Sons of Jian'an" in the late Han Dynasty, wrote in "Drinking Horses and Caves on the Great Wall": "The monarch does not see the Great Wall, and the bones of the dead support each other. ”

The use of living people to drive raw piles may have to be traced back to the Qin and Han dynasties.

I was terrified and couldn't come back to my senses for a long time.

At this time, I really realized what it means to be like a mustard.

"It's good that this is not the case now, otherwise, it would be so terrifying."

Zhang Lingchuan smiled strangely: "Isn't that the case now?" ”

"The shady developers just pushed the homeless man into an empty pillar and filled it with cement. Who in this world cares if a homeless person disappears into thin air? ”

I had an epiphany.

"Boss, I understand!"

At this time, we have walked into the incense shop.

After Zhang Lingchuan closed the door of the store, I couldn't wait to tell him: "So, there must be something under the Yellow River!" ”

"That crystal coffin is the magic weapon to suppress that thing."

"Now that the coffin has been taken away, Arthur's gang designed to frame more than a dozen corpse diggers to go down to the river as the town pillar in order not to cause the restlessness under the Yellow River."

After I finished saying these words in one breath, Zhang Lingchuan showed an approving look.

"Yes, more than a million, you're not too stupid."

After saying all this stuff, I felt the majestic urge to urinate.

Immediately, he hurriedly ran in the direction of the toilet with his legs between his legs.

Zhang Lingchuan sneered behind him: "Yo, I've been holding back for a long time." ”

I slammed the door shut and started releasing water.

Just as I was enjoying this moment of relaxation, a woman's voice came from outside the wall from the toilet.

Outside the toilet, there is a small alley, and no one will pass through it on weekdays.

She babbled, as if she was enduring something, and like she was crying lowly.

I seemed to hear a soft female voice crying outside, "It hurts—"

I was so scared that I took a nap and hurriedly shook it back.

I was worried about which girl had broken down on the night walk, so I looked out and asked, "Who's out there?" ”

Outside, there was a sharp wheezing, and then there was no sound.

What's going on?
