Qin Yiheng closed the door and told me to spit out the ball of sheep dung. He said that he wanted me to suck it up before entering the door just now, because he was afraid that I would attract something to follow him. This is exactly what I want. I was worried that I would keep holding such a disgusting thing in my mouth. If I bumped into something and startled me, I would accidentally swallow it... I spit out the ball of sheep dung and rinsed it a few times before it became light. A little taste in the mouth. I went to the millstone and looked it over, thinking, why is there such a thing in this place? Needless to say, the weight of this kind of grinding disc, if it is specially transported here, it will take a lot of effort. But it is here now, so even if Qin Yiheng didn't explain to me why, I can guess that this thing is very important to this house.
Thinking of this, I asked Qin Yiheng, what happened to this millstone
Qin Yiheng said, don't worry about this, there is something more surprising to you, he opened the piece of rainproof cloth, I was really surprised, it turned out that the covered ones were several people who had met in the house before. There were old wardrobes, each of which had been painted red and held tightly together with wide duct tape. I took a step back subconsciously, and said to myself, the wardrobe almost left Qin Yiheng in that house last time, how could there be so many in it
I saw Qin Yiheng walking back and forth in front of the closet for a few steps, and didn't intend to answer, so I asked him, is there something closed in this closet
He shook his head, I was a little anxious, and said, do you shake your head because you don't know or you don't mean? I am frightened here, please give me a happy word.
Then he said, I don't know, but we have to find a way to transport these wardrobes.
Now I'm even more confused, take it away? Let’s not talk about the value of these wardrobes. I don’t think they look like antiques, but even if they are antiques, there is no good means of transportation in this remote country. Just the two of us, we may not be able to move them out after playing to death. one. I roughly counted, there should be six wardrobes.
I asked Qin Yiheng, what are these wardrobes for? What are you going to do
After hearing this, he walked to a closet, tapped it lightly with his hand, and told me that he didn't know what these closets were used for, but he guessed that every closet here had something written in it, and Most of them are the addresses of some houses.
As soon as he said this, I understood it. He suspected that these wardrobes were "address books". Isn't this a joke! He said before that because the address book should be portable, the lighter and simpler the better, now he suddenly told me that Wan Jinrong likes to be unique, how many of these giants can be used as address books? Is he eager for others to find it or something? And having said that, if these are address books, who took out the previous one? Then how did you run to someone else's house? There are more and more things I can't figure out, and it feels like a thread is constantly knotting in my head. I looked at Qin Yiheng puzzled and asked him how he knew this was an address book.
He shook his head again, and said he was only guessing that they were address books, but that he'd have to wait until each wardrobe was opened to find out.
When I saw that Qin Yiheng meant to open it, I immediately felt a little weak in my legs. I definitely don't agree, but if you want to take it back and open it, it won't be possible. I advised him, is it necessary to open this? After all, you are just guessing, what if you guess wrong? And we don't know what's locked inside.
Qin Yiheng nodded slightly to express his agreement, but he told me that even if he guessed wrong, if he couldn't take these things back, he still had to open them. After finishing speaking, he looked at me, pointed to the wardrobe, and said that the one he saw in that house before, because he didn't pay much attention to it at the time, so he took a closer look just now, and he found that these wardrobes were all It was rebuilt with old coffin materials, and, looking at it now, I am afraid that it was rebuilt with a batch of coffins, or even a pair of coffins.
After I heard it, I was even more puzzled, was it changed with a coffin? This is indeed surprising. Did the co-authors of these wardrobes have nowhere to look for wood, or did they just focus on the wood of those coffins? I saw that the wood of this wardrobe is ordinary wood. Although I can't identify what kind of wood it is, at least I can tell that it is not made of valuable wood.
I quickly lit a cigarette, took a deep puff, and looked at the cabinets again. Each cabinet is the same size as the ones seen in the house before, and the style is the same, but in terms of volume, if it is modified with the wood of the coffin, it will definitely not be enough.
First of all, the shape of this wardrobe and the coffin is very different. I walked up and made a bold comparison. Each side of the wardrobe is made of a whole piece of wood, which made me more sure that a coffin is not It may be changed to such a large wardrobe, because such a large area of wood boards cannot be cut on a coffin.
Thinking of this, I told Qin Yiheng my doubts. He also nodded in agreement, and said, that's why he guessed that it is likely that all the wardrobes are made of a coffin. Although this guess is even more outrageous, it makes sense in theory.
After speaking, he threw away the cigarette butt and lit another one casually, still full of doubts. I took a deep breath, thought about it in my mind, and felt that his guess was still untenable. Is such a large wardrobe made of wood from a coffin? Then how big is this coffin, let alone hold people, it is no problem to live in it, who can use such a coffin? Besides, even if all these are true, where did this coffin come from? Could it be that someone had a whim and wanted to make the largest coffin in the world, and then regretted it and felt that the wood was a pity, so he changed it into a wardrobe? Before I could say anything, another thing came to my mind, how could he conclude that these wardrobes were made of coffins? Ordinarily, there is no way to find out from the wardrobe alone, unless there is a reference, for example, he has seen that coffin!
Thinking about it this way shocked me too, I looked at Qin Yiheng, his eyes seemed firm, so I asked him, have you seen that coffin
After hearing this, he froze for a moment, first shook his head, then nodded, and said that he had not seen that coffin, but he had seen a part of that coffin.
After speaking, he reminded me that in the house of Zhenlong in Jiuzi Town, he picked up a coffin board with my name and birth date written on it.
Before he finished speaking, I recalled it, because the impression of that night was too deep. That Liuzhi used this board to lead the two of us to break the game of the real dragon in Jiuzi Town. Although I was very scared at the time, nothing too big happened, so I didn't pay too much attention to it. Now that Qin Yiheng said this, I feel my hands and feet start to feel cold, because what he meant is obvious, the wood of that board is probably exactly the same as the wardrobe.
Now, I have nothing to say, both of us are contemplating, but there is no thought in my head, I just need some time to calm down. After ten minutes like this, Qin Yiheng woke up like a dream and said, just now, he was talking about the wardrobe, and this thing has a lot of origin. As he said that, he pointed to the stone millstone, then walked to the side of the millstone, and told me that he had a general look just now, and that these bamboo pipes for water diversion can lead the water out, and it is impossible to see where it is led now. , but from the analysis on the millstone, I am afraid it can be concluded.
I looked along his fingers, and then I noticed that there were still things engraved on the millstone, which turned out to be some patterns of birds and beasts. The pattern is so abstract that it looks a bit like a child's stick figure. I briefly distinguished them, but I couldn't tell what kind of animals they were. However, these patterns are carved densely, almost covering the surface of the millstone.
Qin Yiheng squatted down when I was looking at the pattern, pointed to the black part of the lower layer of the millstone and continued, this millstone has an exclusive name in alchemy, called "Grinding Prison", which is said to be a kind of torture in hell . However, no one has ever seen what it looks like in hell. There are some imitations in reality, but they are much smaller than this size. They are also used to drive away ghosts. They can crush evil spirits and beat them to eternity. It is not allowed to reincarnate, and it is said that an expert can even use this thing to change luck. This one here is not used to exorcise ghosts at all. This mill is used to grind human flesh and blood. After being crushed, dead water will be poured on the mill, that is, those small pools that have no living water source and can only rely on rain to accumulate water. Or the water drawn from the small lake, presumably this pool or lake is also located in a very dark place, and finally these stagnant water mixed with human flesh and blood will flow out of this conduit, and will eventually surround the entire ancestral hall.
Speaking of this, Qin Yiheng paused for a moment, thought for a few seconds, and continued. There is only one purpose for doing this, which is to use these grievances and Yin Qi to trap all the souls on the spiritual seats in the ancestral hall and prevent them from reincarnating!
His words can no longer be described as shocking to me. If all this is true, could it be said that the purpose of this ancestral hall was not to worship the ancestors, but to detain the ancestors? I thought of that densely packed spiritual place, at least hundreds of people, which is too creepy. Could it be that this was not built by the descendants of the Wan family? But if it wasn't for this descendant, how did he know the details of this family? The earliest ancestors on the spiritual throne probably date back several dynasties, and the members of the Wan family all died on the same day in that year. Is there any connection between them? What exactly is this person's purpose
I looked at Qin Yiheng, but he also pursed his lips, and he didn't seem to know what it was all about.
