Chapter 503 The things that climbed out of the lake
A long time has passed since the past. After Weng Xiansi saw Pan Cao, he knew that what was supposed to come would definitely come. The laws of the Qing Dynasty were cruel, so he chose a bad strategy to avoid it. Now that the Qing Dynasty no longer exists, the business he used to do in the past is natural.
Don't make any plans.
During the time Pan Cao went up the mountain, this old man Aweng had been observing secretly. He was shocked when he saw that he was an old friend from the past. After guarding the treasure at the bottom of the lake for so many years, he found nothing. Sometimes he felt that he
It's stupid. I could have lived a life like a normal person, but I ended up like this. It's all my own fault.
It's different now. The appearance of Pan Cao proved that there was indeed something fishy about that incident. He saw someone rushing into the woods in the middle of the night. The purpose of coming was to clarify the matter.
Pan Cao is a man who has seen the wind and waves. He is not confused at all. He knows Weng Xiansi's purpose very well. Knowing a person's weaknesses is equal to half the victory. He is sure that Weng Xiansi wants to know the treasure under the lake and dare not
As for them, everything is staged.
After Weng Xiansi finished speaking, he turned his attention to Pan Cao, "To be honest, I was very frightened at the beginning when I saw you. But when I thought about it, there is no three hundred taels of silver here. What is the purpose of your coming back?"
It can’t be clearer.”
Father Aweng's words have a sense of vicissitudes of life, and he will probably be like this for the rest of his life.
"Let me ask you, are the boxes held by the people in the reservoir village the same ones that were salvaged back then?"
"That's right."
"What it is?"
The tone of Pan Cao's question was anti-customer, more like questioning, given to Feng Yu. This condescending feeling was impossible to master. Without a certain degree of warmth, it was difficult to have such a tone.
Father Aweng said vaguely: "Why can't I understand what you said?"
There was a trace of disdain in Pan Cao's eyes, and his tone was forceful: "To put it simply, without us, you would be the only one to see the treasure under the lake. It was impossible to see the treasure under the lake in this life. The original thing has been too long, and I can forget about it. Now, I still
You need to know something, it’s up to you whether you say it or not.”
Father Awen's body relaxed. This was the only chance. Pan Cao took advantage of this. The so-called shortcomings of others and the shortcomings of snakes were used to get to the point in just a few words. Feng Yu was amazed.
In fact, he also knew that Pan Cao's name was not in vain.
"I don't know the specifics. I only know that it is a kind of black wood with beating inside. I buried all the things by the lake. A few years ago, there was a flood and the things were washed out. People in the reservoir village believe
The Lake God thought it was the Lake God's object, so he took it back to the village. Then something strange happened, and they were possessed by evil spirits!"
At this point, Father Aweng stopped deliberately, as if he didn't want to recall the horrifying process.
"You may not believe it if I tell you.
I saw something that I can't explain for the rest of my life. Those people I killed appeared in the village again."
There was a tremor in his voice, and goosebumps rose in the air instantly. Feng Yu and Zhang Xiuxian thought that Father Aweng was old and had misremembered the order of things. After confirming it again, Father Aweng said
Yes, he really saw someone resurrected from the dead.
At that time, everyone else was dumbfounded. He hid in the distance and watched, confirming over and over again.
"It has something to do with the black wood, right?" Pan Cao asked.
"That's exactly what I'm going to say. Indeed, it has nothing to do with what's in the box."
This incident was like a nightmare. Every time he thought about it, Weng Xiansi felt extremely frightened. He knew too little about the things in the lake.
Pancao said: "Have you ever thought about whether the people in Reservoir Village will be affected by that wood?"
Weng Xiansi didn't know how to explain it, so he said: "Let me tell you something that you may not believe. There was no reservoir village here before. This village only appeared later."
Feng Yu seemed to realize something and asked: "Did it happen after the flood?"
Weng Xiansi nodded in acquiescence, while Zhang Xiuxian pretended to be confused, "Ya'er is saying that Reservoir Village, like that group of people, came back to life? What kind of fantasy is this?"
The fear in people's subconscious mind is indescribable. This kind of thing is inherently weird. Weng Xiansirang has been troubled for many years. He knew that there was a problem in Reservoir Village, but he was an old hunter and could not explain anything about the gods and ghosts.
Come two or three.
"Then you didn't go find out?"
"I've gone. As you can see, Reservoir Village is no different from anyone else. The group was the same when they were resurrected. I was very curious, but I couldn't get over the hurdle in my heart, so I followed them until they left. After that, I
I returned to the lake again and found that the wooden box had somehow washed up on the shore."
"Did they take the original boxes with them?"
Weng Xiansi nodded, then shook his head, "They took it away, but the box I saw later was marked."
Speaking of this, Feng Yu began to recall various things in his mind. During the evening sacrifice in Reservoir Village, the boxes they held seemed to have numbers on them.
When Feng Yu realized it later, he couldn't help but feel fear running down his spine. Could it be that the boxes they were holding were the ones originally marked? How could this happen?
After hearing this, Pan Cao was not too frightened. It seemed that everything was as expected. He just asked again: "Can you smell the smell of the people in the reservoir village?"
Weng Xiansi shook his head and said that he had never been close.
"Senior, what's going on? What do you understand?" Zhang Xiuxian looked suspicious and asked
I am suspicious of the story told in the middle of the night.
Bai Ranfa asked, "Boss Cao, just tell me what you have to say. It's so confusing that everyone is confused."
Pan Cao snorted and said, "It's okay, but only if Weng Xiansi helps us. I don't mean it to sound bad. Weng Xiansi, in a few more decades, won't you still be like this? The treasure under the lake is dead.
Even if you are a ghost, you may not be able to see it. I don't need to pursue the past things, and the group itself has little to do with me. Do you want to go into the coffin with regrets, or do you want to do it again? This is your chance."
The old man, Aweng, showed no expression and agreed immediately.
"Qian, I have been hunting in the woods all my life. I have never seen any wind or waves. I have been prepared from the first day I saw you coming. If you entered the mountain in the middle of the night, it means something must have gone wrong."
"Let's put it this way, everything you saw is true. Although it is hard to believe this, but from the news I got, it is so. The people in Reservoir Village have a strange smell. If people in our profession
If you smell it carefully, it is not difficult to tell that it is the smell of dead people. They may not know what is going on in their minds. A few years ago, there was a flood in the lake, which flooded the surrounding villages. At the same time, those boxes were removed.
They also rushed out. To put it bluntly, the people in the reservoir village were the ones who died when the flood hit."
It was a bit scary to say these words in the middle of the night. Feng Yu cursed secretly. It was really unbelievable that a person could get up alive again after death. What is this? Is it a witchcraft or something else?
The Feng family has made a living by stealing and fighting for generations, but it has never been said that the owner of a tomb can crawl out of a tomb and live normally. This is definitely not a simple matter.
"No, it's impossible, right? Old man, are you confused? How can a person stand up like a normal person after death?"
Pan Cao ignored Zhang Xiuxian and talked about the Bai family again, "When we were at the Bai family's ancestral grave, the pinholes on the corpse's leg bones were actually the characteristics of the local people. They had some kind of strange ritual, using extremely small
I inserted a thin needle through my calf bone. At first I thought it was for the purpose of detoxifying damp heat, but I didn’t expect it to be a kind of witchcraft, using bone and blood to grow a plant, which was the black wood in the shape of a human head in the box.”
No one else dared to interrupt, so Pan Cao continued: "What kind of lake is Huaxian Ancient Lake? I was scared at the time. The black wood can make people climb out of the ground. This can be seen clearly in the reservoir village. They
He didn't even realize he was dead."
Feng Yu thought of Wang Ding and his wife who had entertained them warmly during the day, and felt another chill coming to his head. If this was true, it would be an appalling thing.
Who knows how many of the people we see during the day are alive and how many are dead? Not all the people you see every day may be alive!
