Hu Zongren looked at my stupid expression, so he smiled and said, now everything can be explained. This is caused by the ignorance of the developer. I didn't say anything, still a little shocked. This scene before me, I really
I have never seen it in so many years, or I have seen it, but I didn’t expect it to appear in such a place.
On the half wall in front of you, there are densely packed tombs, similar to those in cubicles. Many are broken, some are better preserved, and there are also bluestone tombstones. Most of the words on the tombstones are clearly visible, and one of them reads:
The tomb of so-and-so was born in what year and died in 1975. Originally, such wall tombs were relatively common, but most of them are in regular cemeteries or ashes collection points, especially in urban areas, especially in residential areas.
It is indeed very rare to see such a large row at the bottom. And I also noticed that because there is a very high fort ridge here, when the developer was laying the foundation, it was equivalent to starting from the position of the trail where we are.
I looked up about 10 meters. As a load-bearing, there might be a septic tank below, but one of the load-bearing beams was right next to the row of wall tombs, and it was also destroyed.
There were quite a few. When I looked up again, it happened that this load-bearing beam belonged to that property building.
Hu Zongren told me that it seems that these situations did not just start to happen recently, but that they suddenly became very large and attracted everyone's attention. This is not the first time that construction has destroyed people's shady houses.
But I really can’t figure out why that little girl is an evil ghost. I interrupted Hu Zongren and said to him, look at these relatively healthy wall tombs, do you find anything special?
Hu Zongren shrugged his shoulders and said, isn't this a tomb? What's special about it? It's overgrown with weeds. No one has come to worship for a long time, including this group. I shook my head and said, look at these things now.
The tombstones whose words can be distinguished are almost the same in color, material, style and font, which shows that these tombs should have been set up in the same period.
I pointed to those tombstones with only names and birth and death words on them and said, generally speaking, only poor people would choose cheap burials like wall tombs, but even so, the conditions of each household are different, so whatever can be said
There are some differences on the tombstones, but if you look at the fonts, they are all the same, and none of the tombstones have inscriptions, and the tombs are not even numbered, so I think the family members of the deceased may not have made their own choices at all.
The right to style or inscribe the tombstones, that is to say, the wall tombs here should have been built and placed uniformly by the government.
I said to Hu Zongren again, and this place used to be a rural area. Rural people actually inherit the customs of sacrifice much better than us city people. Since we choose to bury, the transportation in that era was not very convenient, so if any family
If someone from any household dies, people should not travel far away for burial. Besides, burials were still popular in rural areas at that time. The wall tombs here are very small and cannot fit a coffin, so the deceased here should be cremated.
.And no one has worshiped for so many years. Even when this community was originally built, no one was responsible for destroying other people's tombs. This means that the family members of the deceased here should not have much contact with them, or even more likely.
None of the family members know that their family members are buried here.
Hu Zongren listened to what I said and seemed to understand. He asked me, what should I do now, should I take action directly or find out first? You have been talking for a long time and still don’t understand why the little girl became an evil ghost.
. Could it be that the tomb where it lived was one of the ones destroyed by this developer? I shook my head and said that you also saw it last night. This little girl seemed to be the leader of this group of ghosts, giving orders. And
We roughly counted the number of ghosts last night, and it was only a few dozen. But look at the tombs here, there are more than a few dozen. I then told Hu Zongren that it would be too hasty to start now. If yesterday
The group we saw at night is only a small part of the many wall tombs here. It will be very difficult to clean up the ones behind. Maybe there will be some trouble, and if it hurts the people nearby,
Then both of us are guilty.
Hu Zongren stopped talking, so I shouted to Manager Han at the top of my voice, when did the construction of your community start? Manager Han said that he had not joined the company at that time, but he knew that the construction started in 2002.
, it was only in 2006 that owners officially moved in. I told Manager Han that there is a row of wall tombs here. When you first started building, did you have any records of this? Manager Han said, this kind of
He had no idea why there were wall tombs in this place. I didn’t ask any more questions, but carefully observed these wall tombs. On those tombstones that still showed the dates of birth and death, I quickly discovered a common feature.
Point, most of these deceased people died between 1974 and 1978, so I looked at an old house opposite the reservoir. In the yard of the house, clothes were dried and chickens and ducks were raised. If this family was...
If you are an old resident here, maybe he can know something about the situation. So I told Hu Zongren, let’s go down first and ask the farmer opposite.
Hu Zongren shook his head and said to me, don't be too busy walking away, come here and see what this is? So I stopped and walked to Hu Zongren again, and saw him standing in a half-broken
Next to the tombstone, looking at the tombstone with a small hole missing, he said to me that there seemed to be something inside. Although it was bright in the morning, we were in a bright environment and wanted to see what was behind the tombstone.
What was in the dark place? The difference between light and dark was so great that I couldn't see clearly. I could only see a semi-arc outline inside. So I took out a lighter and turned on the light.
A gust of wind blew out from the gap on the tombstone, and my lighter was quickly extinguished. I began to realize that the backflow of wind in the tomb seemed to mean something, because there should not be such airflow in the tomb.
When I was nervously planning to take out the compass to find out, Hu Zongren had already reached out to the tombstone, and with a forceful pull, a large piece of the tombstone fell to the ground. I looked at the compass and saw that it was still a little slight.
The turbulence was similar to the reaction on the compass. I couldn't even tell whether it was because Hu Zongren took off the tombstone. But I saw that Hu Zongren and I were both fine, so I felt relieved a lot.
Now we can see clearly that the area in the tomb is very small, about the same size as an ordinary storage box, and there is only a brown earthen pot the size of a kimchi jar. I think it should be an urn. Other than that,
There was nothing on the outside, but there was nothing inside. Hu Zongren looked at it carefully and then said to me, look, there are cracks on this jar, and there are some gray-white graves on the ground at the bottom. Hu Zongren said to me, this jar containing ashes is all
Cracked. After saying that, he reached out to take out the jar. Just when Hu Zongren's hand touched the urn jar, a strong wind blew out from the tomb. Hu Zongren and I both stood
In front of the tomb, the wind was also mixed with the ashes or general dust scattered on the ground. We had no time to prepare, Hu Zongren and I fell to the ground, and then rolled down the slope like two pieces of wood.
.
When Zhao Jing and Manager Liang saw us falling, they hurriedly ran over to help us and asked if we were okay. I felt carefully that my body had not suffered any other injuries except for being a little scratched and sore.
Hurt. I stood up and patted the dust on my clothes, and then said to Hu Zongren, are you sick? Why are you touching other people’s ashes if you have nothing to do? Hu Zongren smiled embarrassedly and said, how could I have known that it was in broad daylight?
These guys are so unfriendly. Fortunately, they didn't chase us. It was a mistake. It was a mistake.
Hu Zongren and I roughly told Manager Zhao Jing and Han about what we had learned before, and I pointed at the short bungalow opposite the reservoir among the many tall houses and said, I wonder if that family is the elder here.
Residents, but no matter what, we have to go and take a look. Hu Zongren also told Manager Han that when you built the community, maybe because the fort was too high, many graves were damaged when laying foundation piles.
Well, maybe the construction team couldn't find the responsible party at that time, and the matter was dropped. So it's normal for you not to know. Maybe if we don't dig through these bushes today, how many more graves will there be?
It won't be discovered for years.
Although we all know the reason why this community is haunted this time, it must be because of the tombs. But figuring out the ins and outs of these tombs may be able to deduce the reason why the little girl turned into an evil spirit. So the four of us
He returned along the original road and walked to the opposite side of the reservoir. On the way, Hu Zongren said to Zhao Jing, don’t you want to learn from the experience? Remember, in our industry, we can’t tell the truth to others too much, we must have some goodwill.
deception, but this kind of deception is to solve problems rather than to harm others, so you will take a closer look later to see how we get words from others when someone is available to provide consultation.
Zhao Jing had a look of disbelief, but she didn't say anything. We walked along a winding path to the hillside, and when we were halfway there, a little yellow dog raised by that family started barking from a distance.
, walked to the yard, there was an elderly woman sitting in the yard weaving insoles. When I was about to ask questions, Hu Zongren seemed to want to show off his skills. He walked up to the old woman and said, "Aunt, let me talk to you."
