Beiquan didn't answer Wei Fuyuan's question about Zhu Ling's identity, he just smiled and gave him a "what do you say" look.
To this end, Young Master Wei developed a wealth of associations along the way, and he didn't talk to Beiquan or Tian Raising for a long time.
The car drove out of Fengxing City around 8:00 in the morning. At noon, Wei Fuyuan found a rest area on the highway. Everyone got off the car and ate something in a hurry. After resting for less than an hour, they set off again.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, they entered the mountainous area of southern Henan where Xuanmen Village is located.
From the moment he entered the mountain, Wei Fuyuan's mobile phone positioning signal was intermittent, and it often reported errors, which was very difficult to use.
Fortunately, Beiquan brought a map with him, and the sense of direction seemed to be very good. Without further ado, Wei Fuyuan turned off the navigation and opened it according to his instructions.
Wei Fuyuan had known for a long time that Beiquan possessed a different technique, so he was very obedient at this time, and he didn't try to be in the slightest.
While driving, Young Master Wei sighed that the mountain roads in this area are too complicated, no wonder those teachers and students will unfortunately get lost here.
Hearing this, Beiquan lit up the compass in his hand:
"Have you noticed, the geomagnetism here is chaotic."
Wei Fuyuan slowed down and took a quick glance.
Indeed, as Beiquan said, the pointer of the compass is constantly drifting left and right, which is literally "can't find north at all".
"I heard, didn't someone 'handle' Xuanmen Village a few years ago?"
Tian Raise in the back seat interjected:
"How could something still happen?"
Wei Fuyuan has experienced a lot during this time, and immediately captured the key information sensitively:
"What does 'processed' mean?"
"Let me speak, let me speak!"
Tian Jiaxing was bored in the car and was so happy that someone chatted with him, so he began to talk to Wei Fuyuan about the history of Xuanmen Village:
"Is such that-"
As a famous haunted holy place widely circulated on the Internet, Xuanmen Village does have many legends.
Most of these rumors are just rumors and nonsense. They belong to the category of urban legends, just like the woman with a gaping mouth or Hanako in the toilet. It is only because of people's curiosity and the prosperity of the online world that it can spread rapidly.
However, in the eyes of real Xuanmen people, Xuanmen Village is indeed a bit tricky.
For the sake of lighting, ventilation and thermal insulation, old-style houses generally prefer to face the north and south, but most of the houses in Xuanmen Village are facing the opposite.
Moreover, the funeral customs in the village are also different from other places. If there is an elderly person in the family, after the age of 50, they will ask the village longevity shop to build a coffin and park it next to the kang in their room for a hundred years. .
If there are people in the village who died of accidents or sudden illnesses, and there is no time to prepare the coffin, they need to borrow the coffin from the elderly at home or from the neighbors. In any case, they must be put in the coffin overnight, and never wait until the next day.
The biggest difference from traditional folk customs is that people who pass away in the village cannot leave the village after death, but are buried directly at the end of the village. Over the years, there has been a large mass cemetery behind the village. At first glance, there are many tombstones, old and new, densely packed, and all of them are filled with coffins of the dead.
It has been more than a hundred years since the coffins of Xuanmen Village could not leave the village. Even the oldest group of elderly people in the village could not explain the reason, they only said that it was a rule set by the ancestors.
In recent years, funeral customs have been reformed. Even in a remote area such as Xuanmen Village, it is no longer possible to bury it. The villagers put the cremated ashes into coffins, and then bury them in the cemetery behind the village and erect monuments to worship. This habit has continued. Until all the residents of the village have moved out.
"After moving to the village that year, there were 'people' who went to see it."
Tian Jiaxing added an accent to the word "people", which means that the meaning is very obvious.
"It is said that people in Xuanmen Village are in the same village all the year round, and there is also a problem with the feng shui pattern, so the yin is very strong. Although it is not as mysterious as the word of mouth, it is indeed not suitable for living people for the time being, so the best way is to throw it away. Leave it empty, let the sun shine for a period of time, and then make plans after the yin is almost dissipated."
According to Beiquan's instructions, Wei Fuyuan drove the car into the fork on the right side of the mountain road and asked:
"Then why don't you do a ritual or something? It's enough to let the yin in the village go too far."
"Hey, this is your layman."
Tian Jiaxing puffed up his bun face, and said old-fashioned:
"The reasons for the heavy Yin Qi in Xuanmen Village are very complex. It is influenced by its own feng shui, and there are also human factors. And the larger the area is, the more difficult it is to change the local aura using methods such as transcendence. ."
"Although I haven't been to the scene, I don't know what the actual feng shui is like..."
Saying that, the little doll opened her arms and tried her best to make a "big" gesture:
"However, in a village with two or three hundred people living in it, there are still corpses buried for more than a hundred years behind the village. If you really want to do it, it will cost more than just manpower and material resources!"
Tian Jiaxing looked up at Wei Fuyuan:
"For an abandoned village, why bother!"
—Understood, this is the meaning of investment and gain are not proportional.
Wei Fuyuan thought.
Since learning of Tian Raise's true identity and actual age, Young Master Wei has become more calm when communicating with him.
"But even if it doesn't exceed the limit, it doesn't seem right to throw an abandoned village with a lot of yin in the woods, right?"
he continued to ask.
"Not bad, Comrade Xiaowei, you got the point."
Beiquan in the passenger seat laughed:
"If you leave a deserted village with a lot of yin and no one inhabited there, it is simply to let the lonely ghosts or mountain spirits wandering in the mountains quickly set up camp here, if there are too many things to provoke. , once something goes wrong, it will be difficult to clean up.”
- It turns out that there are such scruples!
Wei Fuyuan nodded straight after hearing this:
"So what? What did you do?"
"It's very simple, whether it's ordinary people or something else, as long as they can't find Xuanmen Village."
Beiquan shook the compass in his hand, "It's like this."
"what!"
Wei Fuyuan was shocked.
"Is this magnetic field disorder caused by you guys? Can you even interfere with the geomagnetism?"
Beiquan pouted and muttered in a low voice:
"I'm not with 'them', they eat imperial grain..."
"Just arrange a suitable formation around Xuanmen Village."
Tian Raise in the back seat replied:
"The Taoist priests in Longhu Mountain know a lot of tricks, so it's not difficult to do that."
While the mountain road was relatively stable, he hurriedly opened the thermos cup, held the cup again, and carefully sipped the still warm tea soup:
"Moreover, not only should people not find it, but also make those young people who love to die gradually lose their curiosity about Xuanmen Village."
Wei Fuyuan suddenly realized.
He finally knew where the seemingly non-existent sense of disobedience came from when he searched for information about Xuanmen Village on the Internet.
In the early years, Xuanmen Village was a popular holy place for spiritual exploration. Whether it was true or not, there were so many mysterious rumors that the fingers of both hands could not count.
But in recent years, these rumors have been refuted, and there are several official or semi-official documentaries, even "Approaching Science" is not as good as "Approaching Science". The final conclusion is nothing more than: there is no shit here, the so-called supernatural events are just chasing the wind.
Not only that, even the wind direction on the Internet did not know when there was a big change of 180 degrees.
When discussing the famous supernatural places in China, whenever someone nominated Xuanmen Village, the following hot comments were all ridiculed, as if just saying these three words would make oneself very outdated.
Under the dual influence of such a reversed public opinion and the fact that ordinary people cannot find Xuanmen Village in the support of the formation, this once famous abandoned village has quickly passed away. In the past two or three years, few people have mentioned it. It is estimated that in a few years, even the name will become a historical relic on the Internet.
"So it's all done on purpose, right?"
After Wei Fuyuan figured out these points, he suddenly felt a sense of pride in "I'm so smart":
"I didn't expect that you people... uh, I mean the special professions who are engaged in the work of exorcising and exorcising ghosts. They are quite advanced with the times. They even know how to use the navy."
Beiquan just smiled and didn't answer.
At this time, Wei Fuyuan thought of another very important question:
"Since the surrounding of Xuanmen Village has been laid out to prevent outsiders from breaking in..."
he asks:
"Then how did the teachers and students in our school's photography department get lost in Xuanmen Village?"
"Well, that's a good question."
Beiquan turned slightly from the passenger seat, "I've been thinking about this since last night."
His fingertips tapped lightly on the armrest of the seat:
"I don't believe that the level of Taoist priests in Longhu Mountain is so bad that a group of ordinary college students without any foundation in metaphysics can break their ecstasy..."
Beiquan turned to look at Wei Fuyuan:
"So, the only possibility is that some of them are possessed by ghosts-whether they get lost or enter the village, it is probably the result of ghosts' secret manipulation."
For some reason, Wei Fuyuan felt a chill in his heart.
"Why would the ghost do this?"
Master Wei continued to ask:
"Those who used to hate ghosts, whether they wanted to kill people or do anything else, didn't seem to have a hobby to gather people together, right?"
Beiquan hummed softly:
"How the ghost will act depends on what the host's strongest desire is."
He explained:
"The 'Executioner' pushes the people who have hurt Ye Jia to a desperate situation and then executes them. 'Yan Shuangshuang' charms every man who knows its existence to prove the charm of beauty. These are the 'wishes' of the people they possess. '… ”
Wei Fuyuan shuddered:
"so-"
He swallowed hard:
"The ghost brought everyone to Xuanmen Village, wouldn't it be for, for—to kill them all?"
