108. Ghost Village and Haunted House(1/2)
There must be someone in the village, because every house is neatly kept.
Most of the houses here are two-story, with people living on the ground floor, and grain, farming tools and sundries stacked on the upper floor. The top is covered with bluestone slabs and paved with a layer of thatch, which provides protection from the sun in summer and cold in winter, and is waterproof in rainy days and windproof in windy days.
The three of them walked to the entrance of the village, and Linghu Yun leaned against Yun Song's legs.
Abao pulled it back and hung it in front of him to protect it in his arms.
Very loyal.
It's just that A Bao has a reckless temper and likes to rush and hit hard. In this way, the Linghu Yuan hanging on his chest becomes a leather armor. If there is a conflict from the front, the leather armor will be beaten first...
It was very cool in the village. Yun Song was about to remind Gongsun Wufeng and Lu Zhuozhuo to be careful, but when he looked up, he found that they were missing!
In front of him there were only bluestone paths and quaint houses intertwined with trees. The trees were tall ginkgo trees, towering and lush.
From a distance, the village looks like its houses are half-covered by trees, but up close, you can see that there are large ginkgo trees on both sides of each house.
The trees stood tall, and their shade enveloped the houses, making every house look a little eerie.
'Tick tock...'
'Tick tock...'
The sound of dripping water sounded from under the eaves of a house. He looked over cautiously and saw a pair of cloudy eyes and a wrinkled face through the broken window paper of a window!
Yunsong quickly approached Abao.
A strong man hugged his baby.
A soft cry sounded behind him: "Yunsong..."
Yunsong slowly turned back.
He thought he would see something ghost, but he saw the nervous faces of Gongsun Wufeng and Lu Zhuozhao.
This made him stunned: "When did you two come around behind me?"
Gongsun Wufeng came up and said, "It was you who suddenly walked very fast just now and walked in front of us!"
Lu Zhuozhuo said carefully: "Yes, when the two of us arrived at the entrance of the village, we saw many big ginkgo trees growing here. We were extremely curious and couldn't help but stop and take a look. You were on your own and walked forward. We called you several times.
You didn’t even respond to me.”
Yun Song trembled in his heart and said in a deep voice: "There is something weird in this village!"
"Hey, this is a ghost village."
A deep and deep voice came.
Gongsun Wufeng's expression changed slightly, and the voice came from an old house.
The old house is quite old. The walls are covered with moss and there are many green radish climbing on it. What is planted next to the house is not a ginkgo tree but a large twisted locust tree.
The locust tree did not grow well, and ended up leaning against the wall and lying on the roof, like a dead python climbing up the house.
This is the same old house where Yunsong saw an old face through the wooden window.
Lu Zhuozuo turned out to be very bold.
When she heard the voice, she walked over calmly, with a sweet smile on her pretty face: "Hello, uncle, I'm sorry to bother you."
No one in the room showed their face, only the voice came out: "You know you are disturbing me, why don't you leave quickly? Leave this village quickly!"
"hurry up!"
Lu Zhuozhuo smiled bitterly and said, "I'm sorry, old man, we've been traveling all night. We're so tired. We want to find a place to rest."
"There are plenty of places to rest outside, but why do you come to our village?" The old man said in a very stiff tone, "Let's go, please leave quickly. This is a ghost village! This is not a place where you, the living, should come in!"
Upon hearing that he had arrived at a ghost village, Yunsong perked up and asked, "Are there many ghosts here?"
The old man said: "The village is full of ghosts! Let's go!"
Walk?
Who wants to leave?
I'm going to get fat!
Yunsong quickly continued to inquire: "Then who is the most powerful ghost in your village? Is it a fierce ghost?"
The window frame revealed a cloudy eye.
The old man was looking at him secretly.
Maybe you want to judge whether he is a melon.
He suddenly spoke again: "You can't leave anymore. Come in quickly. A ghost is coming out soon. Come into my house quickly..."
‘Crunch, crunch’…
The door opened intermittently, and Yun Song subconsciously looked over. A door opened in the village, and a woman looked out curiously.
Then there were other doors opening, and people came out one after another from the village.
These people were shocked when they saw them dressed up, and the woman who showed up first quickly waved to them.
Yunsong felt air currents rolling in the room around him, and the broken window paper swayed one after another. The air flow sprayed out through the window edges and made a whining sound, like a young woman whimpering in relief and pain.
He cautiously stepped back and looked inside - he saw nothing.
Lu Zhuozao walked towards the woman and asked: "Sister, you..."
"Come here, come here." The woman said nervously, "Why are you staying in the haunted house? How dare you go near the haunted house?"
Lu Zhuozao asked calmly: "You mean that old house is a haunted house? Are there any ghosts in it?"
A man crossed his arms and asked, "Sister-in-law Hua, are they ghosts? I just saw them staying in the haunted house."
Sister-in-law Hua touched Lu Zhuozhuo's hand and said, "It's hot, so it's not a ghost."
Lu Zhuozuo smiled and said, "Sister-in-law Hua, why are your hands cold?"
Sister-in-law Hua suddenly became anxious: "I was just doing laundry at home. You touched my face, you touched my arm. I'm feeling warm."
Lu Zhuozhuo said quickly: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I'm joking with you..."
"This is not a joke." Sister-in-law Hua said immediately, "There are really ghosts in this village. It is a haunted house."
"If you say that I am a ghost and the villagers believe it, then my family will no longer be able to stay in the village."
The village is deep in the mountains, so no one should come here on weekdays. Now that they saw outsiders and a Taoist priest, the villagers rushed over one after another.
An old man with a goatee raised his hands and said:
"I wonder where the guests come from and where they are going? Does this Taoist priest have some cultivation or is he just wearing such a Taoist robe to avoid trouble?"
Yun Song said: "Fu Sheng is the supreme deity. Xiao Dao is a fake Taoist priest. He wears this robe just for fun."
The old man suddenly looked disappointed.
He then introduced the three of them and said that their village was called Buffalo Village.
The village is surrounded by mountains and rivers. The surrounding mountains are high and the valleys are deep. The mountains are like a lying cow, and the village is located on a raised hillside, just like it is on the belly of a cow, so it is named Buffalo Village.

Hearing his introduction, Gongsun Wufeng smiled and said: "The feng shui of this place is excellent. It is indeed a strong cow lying on the ground and a good mountain shape. As the saying goes, climb the hole to see the bright hall. You guys
The bright hall of this mountain is fresh, winding, and dotted with many small hills. This is called Qinglong Seal Star."
His words shocked the old village chief and asked, "Sir, do you know Feng Shui?"
Gongsun Wufeng said in a low-key voice: "I know a little bit."
He pointed to the back mountain and said:
"The Azure Dragon Seal Star is a pity that the back elbow is ruthless. But looking at the dragon coming from behind, the three hills in front have small branches and feet, and they are gradually lowering from high to low. It is considered a small trend."
"Look further to the left and right. On the left is a green dragon holding the seal, and on the right is a white tiger with a sword. When dragons and tigers gather, there will be storms. Your village may not look big, but it should be able to produce some officials and merchants."
The old village chief stretched out his hand and slapped his thigh vigorously, his face full of conviction:
"You are a man of real ability. You are absolutely right. Our ancestors have produced many officials in our village. A few years ago, there was someone who worked for a general, and he became the quartermaster."
Yun Song asked: "Since the village keeps producing high-ranking officials, why didn't you move out?"
The look on the old village chief's face suddenly disappeared.
He said with some embarrassment: "It's hard to leave our homeland, it's hard to leave our homeland."
Gongsun Wufeng looked at him deeply and said, "I'm afraid it's not that it's hard to leave your homeland, but that you can't get out, right?"
"Even though there are dragons and tigers gathering here, the mountains are low and messy. Dragons can't fly without water. Tigers are blocked by mountains and forests. You can only produce small officials and hawkers here. I'm afraid these people won't be able to control them with just their abilities."
Let the villagers be brought out to make a fortune together."
After hearing what he said, the old village chief's legs felt weak and he seemed to want to kneel down:
"Master, you are truly a master of travel!"
"That's right! We can have officials and merchants in our village, but we can't have high-ranking officials, and those who work as officials and do business don't end well, and they are prone to misfortune!"
"For example, about five or six years ago, my son went to learn shadow puppetry from others, and then performed in mountain villages to sell money. As a result, one day while walking in the mountains, I didn't know whether he met a gangster or a tiger or a wolf. He suddenly disappeared.
Without a trace!"
"And the haunted house I just mentioned. Alas, the old man in that house also has a son. His son is a soldier who became a quartermaster."
"Later, the commander his son followed encountered a rebellion, and his men led troops and beat the commander to death. The quartermaster was a confidant of the commanders, so he was also beaten to death. So you see,
They all encountered misfortune - Hey, what's wrong with you, little lady? You look so ugly."
Lu Zhuozhuo smiled bitterly and said, "It's nothing. Maybe I'm too tired after driving all night on the mountain road last night."
