Small bamboo buildings may be very common in Yunnan and some places with heavy humidity. Building bamboo buildings in crematoriums naturally prevents Yin.
Caihua said as she walked, we both felt a lot more relaxed after escaping from the Yin Formation with our lives.
Caihua said that the yin energy in the crematorium is too strong, and the yang fire will decrease when people sleep. The yin energy will interfere with people's mind, causing nightmares and physical discomfort, so using a bamboo building to isolate the yin energy is a better choice.
I agree with him. People who can live in the crematorium don't have many brushes, and they are scared to death.
The lights in the cabin were very dim, and figures could be vaguely seen swaying by the window. In front of the cabin was a small courtyard, and the courtyard door was not closed. Caihua and I pushed it gently, and it opened.
As soon as I entered the courtyard, I felt like I had entered another world. It was bitterly cold. Goosebumps started to form all over my body, my ears were buzzing, and my scalp was very hot.
Looking at Caihua again, her face is livid, so she probably feels the same as me.
Brother Qin, this place is very evil. Could it be that the rain boots man is hiding here? Cauliflower trembled and lit a cigarette and started smoking.
I said it's very possible. Don't just focus on yourself and leave me alone.
Caihua handed me the cigarette and lit another one.
I said, if the rain boots man is hiding here, we can settle the score with him, but you can't be impulsive this time.
Caihua said, don't worry, I am sensible.
In fact, we both had no choice at this time. The hunchback still had one life hanging on him, and if we didn't catch the real culprit behind this, even my ten lives wouldn't be enough.
The two of us plucked up the courage and walked slowly towards the steps of the small bamboo building. At this time, I heard someone coughing in the room, the door creaked open, and a person walked out, it was Master Liu who burned the corpse.
The old man saw us at a glance, with a flash of surprise in his eyes, and greeted us with a hookah, "Comrades, you haven't rested at this late hour?"
Because we have been guarding the funeral parlor with Guo Dapao these past few days, people here also regarded Caihua and me as police.
It's a good thing to have this identity, at least you don't have to worry about being falsely accused of breaking into private houses.
I smiled and said, we are both unlucky, corpses are always being thrown away recently, so the boss sent us to keep vigil at this damn place. When I saw you still having the light on, I came up to ask for a cup of tea.
Master Liu said, "Come in then. It's quite cool in the mountains at night."
I glanced at the cauliflower and entered the house. It was simple and clean, with an old kerosene lamp, a table, and a few wicker chairs.
Caihua sat down on the wicker chair, shrugged her nose, and cursed secretly: "F*ck, rat oil really stinks."
I woke up and checked my nose, and indeed the room was filled with the smell of rat oil, which was the same as cauliflower. I thought it was the smell on my body, but when I smelled it carefully, I found that something was not right.
Because the rat oil here exudes a burnt smell. Although the burnt smell is not obvious, it cannot escape my nose.
Having been around women all year round, I can distinguish dozens of different perfumes, so my sense of smell is also particularly sensitive.
My eyes fell on the oil lamp, which was oily and yellow, with a hazy layer of oil vapor on the lampshade.
Master Liu saw me staring at the oil lamp and explained with a smile: "The circuit on the mountain is not very good. I am used to using this kind of lamp oil. You two must not be used to it."
Caihua said, "Don't be jabbering. I'm so thirsty. Let's get some hot tea."
Master Liu smiled and said, "Just wait a moment." He stood up and went to the back room to make tea.
Caihua lazily leaned on the chair, biting a cigarette and cursing. This old man was so wretched that he couldn't bear to pull out a light bulb.
I slapped him and pointed at the oil lamp.
Caihua said, what's wrong?
I said if you look carefully, a normal oil lamp will produce black smoke when burning, the wick is black, and there will often be black oil stains on the lampshade. If you look at this again, what is the difference?
Caihua walked to the oil lamp and stretched her neck to take a look. She said that there were oil beads on the lampshade, which was nothing abnormal.
I gave him a hard chestnut, just a few handfuls, the wick is red, and you can smell the smell.
Caihua waved the smell of smoke with her hands, and her face changed when she smelled it, and she opened her mouth to curse.
I quickly covered his mouth and calmed down. I would first see what tricks he was playing and had everything ready. If something went wrong, I would kill him. Do you understand?
A few minutes later, Master Liu came out carrying a cooking pot and made tea for us.
As soon as the tea was brewed, it was red like blood, but the taste was quite fragrant and made people salivate.
Master Liu also sat down, holding a cup and said, "Looking at your wet bodies, you must be very cold. It's cold in the mountains at night, so come and drink a cup of hot tea to relieve your fatigue."
I said: "Master Liu, the color of your tea is quite good and it smells quite fragrant. It must have some background."
Master Liu pointed at me and smiled proudly: "Yes, this tea does have its origin. It is a kind of grass that grows from the coffin lid. It absorbs earth energy, yin energy, and corpse energy. Drinking it can nourish yin."
To ward off evil spirits, come and try it."
Caihua said, old man, your tea is as red as blood. It looks so shabby that I’m afraid I’ll vomit after drinking it.
I rolled my eyes at Caihua and quickly smoothed things over. Don't blame me, my friend can't speak.
Master Liu said, it's okay! If you don't want to drink tea, the old man will chat with you. It's almost dawn anyway.
I looked at my watch and it was indeed half past four. I wanted to see what the old man was up to, so I decided to play with him.
Master Liu asked, have you found anything out about the missing body?
I said, don't mention it, I haven't even written the horoscope yet.
Just as he was talking, a beast-like roar suddenly came from the night sky, vaguely mixed with a woman's cry, which made people's hair stand on end.
Master Liu smiled slightly and said, "Don't panic, my useless son is crazy."
Is your son a lunatic? Caihua asked nonsensically.
I pinched his thigh and said, "Master Liu, I'm going to go out to pee. You two can chat first."
Master Liu said calmly, "Okay."
I left the small bamboo building and quickly looked for the place where the sound came from.
Soon I determined that the sound came from the mountain behind the small bamboo house, so I ran towards the mountain. I don't know why, but I felt that I was getting closer and closer to the truth.
When we arrived at the back mountain, I was a little dumbfounded. This was not a path for people to walk at all. The mud was a foot deep, like a swamp, and every step required a lot of effort.
My mood became excited. The rain boots man must be hiding here. Only people who survive here will wear rain boots. Yes, that is definitely the case.
I was getting closer and closer to the place where the sound came from. I walked on the dirt road for a while, and there were weeds in front of me. I turned on the flashlight of my mobile phone, pushed aside the weeds as high as a person, and continued to search deeper.
Finally I found the source of the sound, which was a cave. The entrance was not big and was covered by weeds, so it was very hidden.
I wiped the grass particles off my face, pushed the bastard away, and got in.
After walking a few steps inside, the cave became wider. It was extremely cold inside, and the water droplets falling from the rock wall cut my skin like ice knives, which was very uncomfortable.
"Haha, I can't beat you to death, you little bitch, I can't beat you to death!" A burst of wild laughter made my eardrums hurt, and the stone particles from the cave wall penetrated into my collar.
Before I could recover from my daze, a large group of bats flew towards me with a roar. I was so frightened that I squatted on the ground holding my head.
When the bats dispersed, a layer of cold sweat broke out all over my body, and my body was full of bat feces, which was extremely stinky.
Cursing secretly, for fear that the man with rain boots in the hole would find me, I turned off the flashlight and slowly moved inside by touching the wall.
After walking for a while, I realized something was wrong. There was something sticky under my feet, and there was a smell of blood. The smell made me almost faint.
I screamed, vomited, and couldn't help but turn on the flashlight again. Oh my god, the floor was covered with bloody mouse skin and internal organs. It was hundreds of times more disgusting than the hut.
I clutched my stomach, feeling terribly uncomfortable, wondering whether I should continue walking inside.
Wherever the flashlight shined, the entire road was covered with bloody, skinned rats. The air was filthy and dirty. I was afraid that I would be suffocated to death before I even reached the depths.
I thought of the dog shit pills that Caihua gave me, and when I touched them, they were all gone, and then I remembered that they were all eaten by my grandson.
Now I'm in trouble, should I leave or not?
At this time, I suddenly heard a woman's crying and yelling. It was very familiar, and it seemed to be Nana's voice.
She seemed to be crying and scolding, followed by a man's roar and the sound of a whip.
***, it must be the rain boots man. Could it be that, as Caihua said, Nana’s soul was abducted by the rain boots man and brought here.
Anyway, if you go back, you will be shot and imprisoned, so it is better to fight to the death and catch the damn rain boots man.
Thinking of this, I made up my mind to turn off the flashlight, wipe out the bloody dead rat, and go deeper.
Bang! I hit my head against the stone wall, and stars were shooting out in front of my eyes.
I turned on the flashlight and took a closer look. It turned out that the hole had reached the end. Turning to the left, there began to be light. But what surprised me was that this was actually a waterway.
That's right, a straight waterway stretches one meter below the left side of the cave. There is a black paper symbol posted at the entrance of the cave. The entire waterway is paved with large stones at intervals, which seems to be convenient for people to enter.
Damn, why is it so familiar? When I thought about it carefully, I remembered that it was somewhat similar to the Water Curtain Cave that the Supreme Treasure dreamed of in Journey to the West.
However, this place is obviously more windy than Shuiliandong. There are yellow rain curtains floating on the top of the entire waterway. It looks so spectacular. It seems that this rain boots man is quite a talent. If I hadn't had sharp ears, who would have found this place?
I knew that there would be such a weird cave in such a barren mountain.
I stepped on the stone tentatively. The stone was very stable and had no moss. It seemed that people walked on it frequently, otherwise it would have become slippery if I soaked in the water.
Carefully crossing the stones step by step, I soon discovered that what was flying above my head was not a curtain of water at all, but fucking rat oil.
It was extremely cold in the cave, but as soon as the rat oil spread, the Yang fire in my body became even less strong, and I began to feel dizzy again, and almost fell into the underground river several times.
