"Come on, follow me to his house. I want to see how a dead man climbed up!" my father said.
"Why don't we go before dawn? It's so late..."
"Go now!" My dad said and came up to pull me up. I felt that he had body temperature, and I immediately felt relieved.
I followed my father straight to Liu Banxian's house, and found that the door of his house was open and the lights were dim. My father went up to knock on the door, but no one in the house answered, so he went straight in. I turned on the light in the house.
Called: "Liu Banxian, Liu Banxian!"
After calling for a long time, no one answered. I suddenly panicked. Liu Banxian was a well-known bachelor in the village. The door was open and no one was in the room. Could it be that what I saw at night was really his ghost?
When I came out of Liu Banxian's house, my father said to me: "Xiaofan, I said you saw a ghost. I said I saw this old boy fall to death with my own eyes. Do you believe it now?"
I nodded subconsciously, but I always felt that something was wrong. It was dark under the old well. How did my father see Liu Banxian fall to death? I remember that I couldn't see the bottom of the old well even with a flashlight...
"Dad, how deep is it down there?"
My dad lit a cigarette and said to me calmly: "It's deep inside. Let me tell you, if this person falls, he will definitely come up dead!"
My heart skipped a beat and I couldn't help but wonder: How did my dad get up there?
Early the next morning, I went to my father's room to call him and planned to go to Liu Banxian's house to see if he was alive or dead. However, I found that the door of my father's room was ajar, he was no longer there, and his cell phone was turned off.
I waited in the house for half an hour but didn't see him come back, so I went to the village to look for him. Maybe he had gone out to work. But when I went to the village and asked, they all said they hadn't seen my father. I felt a little confused. Could it be that I
Dad didn't come back. Did I have a dream last night, or maybe I saw a ghost?
The more I thought about it, the more I felt something was wrong, so I ran to the old well at the entrance of the village and found that many people had gathered around the old well. I found that the village chief and his people had also come over. The most surprising thing was that Liu Banxian was also in the team!
At that time, he was gesticulating in front of a stone, and several people around him nodded, as if they agreed.
I took a closer look and saw that it was a round stone, lying quietly beside the old well. It was the same size as my millstone, about one meter in diameter, and seemed to have no gaps. It was carved with figures that looked like human faces and bird bodies.
Strange pattern.
The strangest thing is that this stone appears translucent in the sunlight. Through this transparency, I can see some black shadows inside. The stone is warm when I touch it, but when I touch the location of the black shadow,
, but it was bitingly cold.
A few sharp-eyed people noticed that the black shadow in the stone seemed to be moving, but I couldn't see it moving after watching it for more than ten minutes. I thought maybe they were dazzled.
When Liu Banxian saw me coming, he said to me: "Yang Fan, come here!"
I bravely went over. Liu Banxian held me with one hand and the village chief with the other, and said: "This old well can no longer be dug. This old well is a place where corpses are accumulated. The locust tree also needs to be cut down. The locust tree is
It’s a ghost in the wood, and if it’s next to this old well, our whole village will suffer!”
"Don't talk nonsense. This old well and acacia tree have been there for so many years, and we haven't seen anything happen to our village. I think if we don't dig the well, our village will really suffer!" said the village chief.
"Yes, the village has been peaceful for so many years, what could happen?" said a person nearby.
"Nothing happened before, because the old well was not touched. Now that the old well is disturbed, wouldn't something happen? I fell in with Yang Laoer yesterday, and Yang Laoer died on the spot!"
"No!" I hurriedly retorted: "My father is not dead, he came home last night!"
"What? He's back?" Liu Banxian pulled me in front of him, his eyes widened, and said, "He's really back? Where is he?"
"I don't know either. I went out early in the morning and I don't know where I went." I paused and continued: "Didn't you come back last night? Why did we go to your house to look for you and your door was not closed?
You're not here either?"
"Humph, I went to see my master overnight, and then came back overnight. Of course I wasn't at home!" Liu Banxian retorted.
"Then why didn't you invite your master?" the village chief asked.
"My master is helping people look after the cemetery. He will come when he is finished. You should fill in the old well now and cut down the trees. Wait for my master to open an altar to drive away evil spirits!" Liu Banxian paused and continued:
"There is also this stone. It was not there yesterday, but it suddenly appeared today. It is so weird. I think our village is in danger of a disaster!"
The village chief didn't believe Liu Banxian's words, so he said that he wanted to find another Feng Shui master to come and have a look. However, now that we are establishing new trends and destroying the four old traditions, it is difficult to find better Feng Shui masters. Most of the remaining ones are swindlers.
It was difficult to find someone, so Liu Banxian volunteered, but the village chief thought that he was just a magician and had no ability, so he refused to let him continue.
In the end, we had no choice but to call in the oldest old man in the village. This old man was over eighty years old. I heard that he had been a soldier before, but later made political mistakes and was deported back to his hometown.
The old man was carried to the old well at the entrance of the village. He was skinny and sallow, like a skeleton. As soon as the old man arrived at the old well, he sat upright and opened his eyes wide, as if he had a premonition of something bad.
s things.
"Old man, what do you think this is? Is it a blessing or a disaster?" the village chief asked.
The old man was helped up, walked to the edge of the old well and looked at the stone. His eyes opened wider and he murmured: "Why are you here?" After taking a closer look, the old man immediately moved away.
We were all staring at the stone and no one felt any light coming out, but the old man screamed and covered his eyes with his hands.
The village chief found some sunglasses for him to put on, and then he opened his eyes, walked around the old well, and squatted down to look at the translucent stones. During this period, he still covered his eyes with his hands. It seemed that it was still very dazzling. We
Chills ran down my spine, and I felt unspeakable fear in my heart.
After reading it, the old man was stunned and stopped moving. He sat down beside the old well, closed his eyes and said nothing, as if he was meditating.
We looked at it in a daze, and after waiting for about half an hour, the village chief went to take a picture of the old man and said, "Old man?"
Who knew that at this moment, the old man's body tilted and he fell down beside the old well, motionless. The village chief was so frightened that he quickly helped the old man up, but the old man seemed to have no bones and could not sit upright.
He always fell down, and when he finally felt his breath, he realized that the old man was dead!
The onlookers were all frightened. The old man had no relatives, and now he suddenly died here. The village chief didn't know what to do for a while. In the end, he could only call a few big men to carry the old man's body in a hurry.
I'm going back to the old man's house to prepare for the funeral arrangements.
Liu Banxian jumped out again and said: "Look, another one has died! A disaster is coming!"
The village chief looked complicated and didn't say much, carrying the old man's body away.
Liu Banxian and I were the only ones left by the old well for a while.
I was also about to go home and wait for my father to come back. Before I left, I was stopped by Liu Banxian. He asked me in a low voice: "Is your father really back?"
I nodded and said yes, and he asked me again: "What did he do and what did he say after he came back?"
"He said..." I was stunned for a moment. My father said that Liu Banxian was dead, but Liu Banxian was standing in front of me alive now. How could he be dead?
"what did he say?"
"Said you fell to death under the well..."
Liu Banxian trembled, looking a little panicked, and asked again: "That's all?"
I nodded again, and Liu Banxian was thoughtful and whispered to himself: "This person is obviously dead, how could he come back, and now he is gone? Where did he go?"
"Um, half-immortal, what's it like down there?" I bravely asked.
When asked about this, Liu Banxian looked at me lightly and said: "The place below is where corpses are accumulated. Let me tell you, if this person falls, he will definitely come up dead!"
I felt a chill in my heart, and all the hairs on my body stood up. Why did my father and Liu Banxian both say the same thing? How did they come out alive?
