Locals in Daoxian County should all know about Yin Yang Cave. It is said that when filming Journey to the West in the 1980s, they planned to film in Yin Yang Cave. Later, I heard that the filming was not completed because of the crew's funding issues.
The next day we rested until about ten o'clock and got up. I went to Xiao Tang's house because Uncle Xue said that there was a Yin Yang Cave nearby, but we didn't know the specific location.
"Hello grandma, what are you going to eat?" I saw the old man frying some yellow noodles in a big pot.
The old woman had a kind face and said with a smile: "This is our Yaoshan oil tea. It's fragrant. Young people, you can have a bowl later."
"Okay, grandma, where is Xiao Tang? I have something to ask him about."
The old man pointed to the room and said he was doing homework.
The old house their family lived in was very dilapidated, and the peeling walls were covered with academic certificates. When I entered the house, I saw Xiao Tang holding a math book and reading it. When she saw me coming in, she asked what was wrong.
"It's okay. Xiao Tang, let me ask you something. Do you know how to get to the Yin Yang Cave?"
"I know, what are you doing there?"
I smiled and asked if I would like to travel. I wanted to take some photos as a souvenir.
Xiao Tang put down his math book, rubbed his eyes and said: "The Yin-Yang Cave is in the north of Zaizailing. You can find it by walking along the river. There is Jerusalem artichoke in that cave. When I was a child, my classmates and I used to dig Jerusalem artichoke. But now we don't
Do you know if there are any more?"
I secretly wrote down the approximate location, remembered the small temple I saw last night, and asked: "Also, Xiao Tang, what kind of statues are you enshrining in Zaizai Temple?"
Hearing my question, a trace of panic clearly flashed across Xiao Tang's face.
She said: "Don't ask, I don't know. I have to do my homework."
Seeing that she refused to tell me, I was too embarrassed to press her, so I told her what I had learned after I got back.
After hearing this, Uncle Xue said: "Without further delay, after dinner, we will go and have a look in the afternoon."
At noon, Brother Yu cooked the meal over the fire. He used to make big pot rice in the kitchen of Shaolin Temple.
We were eating in the house when suddenly we heard the sound of gongs banging on the street outside, and someone seemed to be shouting.
"What's going on?" I opened the door with the bowl in hand and went out to take a look.
While beating gongs and drums, I saw an elderly man shouting at the villagers who were eating. The old man looked very panicked. I didn't know what happened.
"Uncle Master, please listen to what people are shouting."
Uncle Xue ran over and looked at it for a while, and his face suddenly became a little ugly.
He said: "Something happened. This man said that someone died by the pond in Zaizailing this morning. He asked people to go and have a look."
“Someone is dead??”
After hearing the news, the villagers who were having lunch put down their bowls and chopsticks one after another. The old man was beating the gong in front, and the other villagers trotted behind.
I put down my bowl and chopsticks and hurried back and said, "Look up! Something seems to have happened! Let's go and have a look!"
After trotting along with the villagers, I arrived at the place and saw a middle-aged man lying face down on the path beside the pond, motionless, with his pole and basket lying on the ground.
Immediately, a villager came forward and turned the man over. He saw that the man lying on his stomach had a dark red face, the color of a pig's liver, the whites of his eyes were turned up, and the size of his lower body was out of control, and he pulled his pants.
People are out of breath and dead...
There were children among the villagers who were watching. They were frightened and cried when they saw the dead person.
The faces of the adults all turned extremely pale, and a woman who looked like the wife of the deceased collapsed on the ground, crying so hard that the sky was dark.
At this time, the crowd of onlookers suddenly moved out of the way, and an old lady with a cane and a severe hunch came over.
The hunchbacked old lady looked at the purple-faced corpse and suddenly knelt down towards the entrance of Guizailing.
The old lady threw away her crutches, clasped her hands together, and kept bending down and kowtowing. At the same time, she muttered something loudly in a dialect that I couldn't understand.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
Uncle Xue translated in a low voice: "The old woman said that she encountered the Yin soldiers in the aisle. Because she accidentally saw the ghost soldiers, her soul was taken away. She lost control of her bowels and bowels because she was frightened by what she saw. She was scared to death...
.”
The villagers were all frightened when they heard this. All the locals grew up listening to the legend of ghost cubs. Their parents and grandparents had personally told stories about ghost cubs seducing people, especially some elderly people.
