243, Tanjia Village (2/2)
The surrounding houses and tiles are as old as ever, surrounded by dead vines and old trees.
Figures of people were vaguely visible in the brightly lit windows, and there was a vague sense of life flowing around. Google search reading
But Su Wu was in this group of houses,
But my heart is cold!
The houses that come into view are all tombs.
Some tombs may be luxuriously built with bricks and stones, so the rooms they reveal are those of wealthy families with deep courtyards.
Some graves contain only a few handfuls of loess.
So what they reflected was a dilapidated and remote thatched cottage!
So,
What could those figures projected from the windows of the house be?
Could it be that the things lying in these graves are not corpses?
But one is just a treacherous one? !
But Su Wu didn't feel a trace of strangeness at all!
Fortunately, he remembered the fat old man's instructions clearly, and immediately untied the cloth covering the bamboo basket and picked up the first bowl of rice.
On the big coarse porcelain bowl,
Draw a circle with black ink.
Su Wu grabbed the rice in the bowl and suddenly felt as if he was holding some fine ice particles in his hands.
The Qi and blood in his palms were not flowing smoothly,
Slightly stiff!
This rice is indeed no ordinary rice!
A thought came to his mind, and at the same time he raised his hand and threw out a handful of rice!
The grains of rice are scattered,
Submerged in the dark night,
No fall seen.
With bursts of rice grains spilling out,
Su Wu's curses rang out in the darkness: "I'm wearing your mother's hair, you donkey fuck, you insist on blocking my way..."
He's not very good at swearing;
At this time, I also racked my brains to reproduce every classic Chinese curse.
"Ball bag!"
"I bought a watch last year!"
Cursing one after another, rice grains were thrown into the darkness,
On both sides of the road, the houses standing among the wild grass and trees trembled!
inside the window,
The figures who were embroidering or flipping through books suddenly stood up, their fingers scratching and tapping on the window paper!
Bang bang bang!
swish swish——
As these figures keep beating and scratching at the window paper,
The trembling of the houses became more and more violent!
Wisps of cold breath spread out from everywhere in the darkness,
Glowing a pale green light in the darkness,
Like fireflies scattered on the ground!
Su Wu saw those 'fireflies' clearly - they were all rice grains he scattered!
The pale green light spots continued to extend forward,
It also allowed Su Wu to see clearly the scene ahead.
Go straight ahead on a gentle slope,
After climbing to the top,
The whole world seemed to be divided into two parts.
This gentle slope extending from Su Wu's feet connects the 'Shangtian and Earth'. In the woods on both sides of the road, there are still houses and tiles scattered there.
And the short slope goes down,
The connected ‘Heaven and Earth’,
It is a winding and rugged mountain road,
On both sides of the mountain road, there are grave mounds that look eerie under the dim moonlight.
It’s much scarier than the scene shown in ‘Heaven and Earth’!
"Mirror world?
Space overlap? "
Su Wu watched Liang Chong being thrown out because of the grains of rice.
The world that appeared next made me frown.
In the lantern he was holding, the fire began to flicker,
It was like an unknown gust of wind passed through the barrier of the lampshade and blew directly on the flames.
The fire shook more and more violently,
That tiny bit of light was weighed down by the unknown wind and was unable to stand up straight!
Su Wu was carrying a bamboo basket,
A handheld lantern,
Continuously scattering grains of rice with one hand,
You cursed yourself in your mouth,
Run along the passage where the rice grains fall into the darkness one after another!
Rushed up the gentle slope,
Rushed into ‘Xiatiandi’!
The moment his figure rushed into the land under the gentle slope, a strong strange rhyme spewed out from all directions and spread here, leaving only bare tombs all around.
In others, not even a single weed can be seen!
Mantou Mountain,
This is Mantou Mountain!
A strange rhyme flows around Su Wu,
And because of the lantern Su Wu was holding, he could never really get close to him.
A vortex formed around him.
Being in this strange ocean, Su Wu's mind calmed down - he knew that he was on the right path.
The strange rhymes flowing and washing all around may seem terrifying, but in fact, it's nothing more than what it looks like.
An ordinary person walks here,
Most of the time you will feel chills all over.
Don't dare to stay too long,
But you will never feel like you are on the verge of death because of the strange charm here.
The most terrifying thing about the mysterious charm is that it is a poison to any living creature, causing people to suffer from various discomforts and even die directly in the mysterious charm.
But the strange charm here only makes people feel cold,
Staying here too long,
It may cause hypothermia or death here.
But when people come here, they feel cold all over their bodies and have a sense of crisis. How can they stay here too long?
This strange rhyme makes people feel chilled all over.
Because he said it was hurting people,
Rather, it is a warning to pedestrians staying here.
Su Wu walked forward holding a lantern,
There was especially surprise in his eyes,
He looked at the tombs scattered around,
It was determined that the source of the strange charm in this place was the surrounding tombs.
In those graves,
Buried are the real spooks!
The person who buried Li Jui used some method to reduce the harmfulness of Li Jui's evil charm to ordinary people to the lowest level!
Su Wu looked away,
in all directions,
There are no less than a hundred tombs, and more than one sly is buried in each tomb.
Hundreds of ghosts are buried here!
Su Wu's scalp was numb!
He quickens his pace!
Even if they know that there is no possibility of escaping from the monsters under the tomb at this stage, anyone who thinks that they are surrounded by hundreds of monsters will speed up their pace, hoping to leave this ghost place as soon as possible!
What's more, there is a mirror world on this Mantou Mountain.
The houses in that world,
Corresponding to each grave bag here.
There is no need to explain the figure reflected in the window paper of the house.
In this case, who can fully explain the state of the mystery here?
Walk all the way to the foot of Mantou Mountain,
Out of the scope of Mantou Mountain,
Su Wu didn't even see a single stone tablet to record how Mantou Mountain was formed?
His mind was full of questions,
Carrying a bamboo basket,
Walking less than two miles forward, you saw what the fat old man called the "stage terrace".
The "stage terrace" is a large open space with no grass growing on it.
The clearing is surrounded by trees,
These eerie trees resemble spectators surrounding a stage watching a play.
It's so dark here,
No one was seen.
——The fat old man said that this situation is a good thing.
Su Wu glanced at the stage.
I still don’t feel there’s any weirdness going on here,
He hurriedly crossed this boundary,
Go to the final destination - Tanjiacun.
Tanjia Village was clearly outside Mantou Mountain and Xitaiping, but the fat old man said that this village was the 'next door village', which also made Su Wu suspicious.
It was already late at night,
Dark clouds covered the crescent moon in the sky,
The lantern swayed in the darkness,
It reflects Su Wu walking alone in the dark night.
He silently calculated in his mind how far he had traveled.
By the time he had traveled more than twenty miles,
The lantern in his hand also reflected the gloomy night ahead, where dilapidated houses spread out along the dirt road towards the end of the sight.
And many houses before,
A loose wooden archway that looked like it would collapse if it could not hold up for long, stood silently.
On the archway,
There is a plaque with mottled writing,
The three words "Tanjiacun" are vaguely visible on the plaque.
"arrive!"
Su Wu shouted in his heart,
He found a dead tree and hung the lantern on it.
Then he took out the bowl of rice with three circles drawn on it from the food basket.
I took another handful of incense,
Place the bowl of uncooked rice under the archway, light the incense in your hand with a fire starter, and insert it into the rice grains.
Su Wu looked around,
Make sure nothing is missing,
I took the lantern and walked to a long-abandoned cowshed not far from the archway.
The wooden fence gate of the cowshed was moved,
Spread some hay evenly on the ground,
Su Wu was lying on the haystack.
He turned sideways, and from his angle, he could just see the movement on the other side of the archway.
The lantern was set on the ground by him,
Burning silently,
Occasionally, a cold wind blew outside, causing the firewood and hay around to rustle.
Some dust was blown up by the wind,
Swirling on the ground.
Cold wind, cold night.
There were only a few lice and fleas crawling on the body.
"We have to find a river tomorrow.
Give this body a good wash - the simulator can now even simulate lice and fleas.
I don’t know if this is good or bad? "
Su Wu's mind was spinning with thoughts other than Si Liu.
I saw there was no movement on the other side of the archway.
Just changed his posture,
Turn over and lie down on the pile of firewood.
As he turned around, he saw a short figure struggling to open the wooden fence door and walk into the cowshed.
She was an old woman with a stooped figure.
The old woman bound her little feet,
He slowly walked to Su Wu's side, took out a handful of hay and stuffed it into Su Wu's mouth.
Block one side,
She opened her toothless mouth and spoke: "Cow, eat grass, cow, eat grass..."
The old woman's face was covered with wrinkles,
His eyes are full of kindness,
But facing her gaze, Su Wu's skin and flesh tightened, and she closed her mouth tightly.
Neither hindering the old woman from feeding herself hay,
He didn't say anything to stop the other party,
Lying on the haystack like a piece of wood, he didn't respond to the sudden appearance of the old woman at all.
The handful of hay in the old woman's hand poked Su Wu's face,
I haven’t fed him out for a long time.
She dropped the hay,
A pair of turbid old eyes turned completely pitch black in an instant, and the pitch black eyes were wide open, almost opening their eye sockets.
The fishy smell wafted out of 'her' toothless mouth: "Why don't you eat grass?
Why don't you eat grass? ! "
It asked Su Wu sharply!
Su Wu looked at it, but still didn't respond.
Wisps of strange charm emanated from this old woman, disturbing the lanterns on the ground that flickered on and off!
After waiting for a long time, it did not wait for any response from Su Wu.
So he slowly turned around,
Move outside the bullpen,
Then he struggled to move the wooden fence door shut.
All behaviors and behaviors,
Just like an ordinary old woman!
But it is not a human being,
But a trick!
It hunched its back and walked to the archway, circling the bowl of raw rice with a stick of incense sticks several times,
and then suddenly disappeared,
while the stick of incense sticks in the bowl of raw rice on the ground began to burn rapidly,
and the rice grains kept jumping up high,
and then fell into the bowl.
This lasted all night.
