The old witch doctor took a look at me. His eyes were a little white. It seemed that there were two glass balls inlaid in his eyes. It was very shocking.
She said to me slowly, "it's the land lord who is angry, so he will punish the villagers in this way."
"The land lord is angry?" I was so dumbfounded that she could think of it.
But seeing her serious expression, I dare not laugh.
Soon, a big belly man came in on crutches. Glanced at us casually and sat down opposite us.
"If someone in the village dies, you must follow the funeral! So you'd better get rid of it quickly. " Said the strong man fiercely.
I nodded.
I know this man is not joking. Even if he killed us here, the police may not find out.
Then chop me and Pockmarked Li and throw them into the mountains to feed the wolves, and we will really disappear from the world.
If we want to solve the problem of Baisha village, we must understand the whole story. So I asked him patiently, what happened here? I have to say it in its original form. No details can be missed.
After understanding, I know that this strong man is called Niu Dazhuang, a village secretary.
The village branch in this remote area, just like the emperor of the earth, can't manage the town or the county, so they basically live a life of self-sufficiency.
Niu Dazhuang has been in high school, which is the highest level of culture in the village. After all, he knew that the present village would only be poorer and poorer, so he decided to carry out a "cultural - Cultural Revolution" as a village branch secretary.
All children have to go to school, and the villagers have to farm less, produce more fruits and take off the hat of the poor village.
Although Baisha village is poor, it is full of fertile soil. If we can develop wasteland into orchard, we can imagine the future.
With his persuasion, all the men, women, old and young in the village came to reclaim the wasteland.
But only a few days after reclamation, something happened!
That day, they dug out a lot of skeletons of dead people on the back mountain. They buried them in a dense place. There were also many horse bones. They piled up into a mountain and broke them.
In addition, there are many rusty weapons, some of which are still inserted in people. One of the most skeletons has a dozen arrows in it. It's a thrilling scene.
The villagers, who had always been superstitious and feudal, thought it unlucky and would not continue to cultivate. In particular, the old witch doctor was guarding the pile of skeletons by day and night, chanting scriptures for 24 hours, and didn't know what he was reading.
She urged the villagers to say that these are the hell soldiers around the Lord of the land. If they continue to dig, they will provoke him. So no one dares to deal with this land
However, niudazhuang didn't believe in evil. He took several young villagers to continue digging.
I didn't expect to find a stone tomb at last. I don't know when it was. I don't even have a tombstone. It's a simple stone tomb. It's empty.
They planed for an entrance to the tomb, and the bull went in first. It was found that there was only one offering table in the tomb, on which there was a clay pot.
There was nothing else, not even the coffin.
Niu Dazhuang was curious and took out the clay pot. When he opened it, he found that there was only a small bone in it.
After identification, they agreed that this small bone is probably a human knee bone.
And those bones outside the stone tomb are probably the bodies of tomb keepers.
They destroyed the ancient tomb. Nothing happened for several days.
The villagers finally let go of their suspense, so they began to reclaim the back mountain again, because it was not only so simple for them to reclaim land, but also to seek a way out for their grandchildren!
However, on the second day of working in the whole village, something happened
First of all, when some villagers go home at night, they always feel that someone is following behind them. They can look back, but there is no one at all.
Then when the villagers were eating the big pot together, they found that there were enough bowls, which were not enough. After checking and counting, we found that there were many bowls full of rice, which were inexplicably brought to the corner.
Even when sleeping at night, you can often hear the sound of fighting from the back mountain. It seems that there are thousands of troops fighting, and it seems that someone is crying out in pain.
For several days, such strange things happened, which made the villagers panic.
Until one of the villagers sleepwalked to the back mountain in the middle of the night and saw all the skeletons on the mountain standing up to chase him, the villagers realized the seriousness of this matter. Maybe the whole village would die!
That's why I'm invited to subdue the demons.
The reason why I was found is that Pockmarked Li once came to collect antiques and praised me as a God.
Now in Baisha village, Niu Dazhuang thinks it's probably the clay pot, so he contacted me, hoping I could help.At that time, I didn't think about it at all. I thought it might be the villagers' psychological role, so I just let Pockmarked Li come.
When Pockmarked Li arrived, he gathered the skeletons together as I said, cooked them in a large iron pot, and piled them up for burning.
Then he filled the clay pot with lime, tied it firmly, and sank to the bottom of the lake.
In the first few days, nothing happened again. The villagers dare to walk at night.
However, since Pockmarked Li left, the situation has suddenly worsened!
The villagers had strange dreams one after another. They dreamed that there was a black shadow standing on their knees. When they woke up, they found a pair of black footprints on their knees. And through the careful comparison of niudazhuang, it is found that these footprints are of the same size and seem to belong to the same person.
At that time, Niu Dazhuang realized that something was wrong. He immediately went to consult the village witch doctor, the old woman who had just treated Li Mazi's leg.
After the witch doctor finished the examination, he said that they had provoked the land lord. They burned the hell soldiers of the land lord with fire. The land lord was naturally angry, and she was helpless
Niu Dazhuang naturally doesn't believe in the witch doctor's theory. After all, he graduated from high school and doesn't believe in the theory of ghosts and gods.
But in fact, many things can not be explained by science, so this kind of thing belongs to metaphysics.
Niu Dazhuang still believes in the attainment of the witch doctor in metaphysics. Many diseases that cannot be cured in large hospitals can be cured if the old witch doctor casually finds some herbs, which is obvious to all in the village and can not be trusted by the big cattle.
As a village secretary, Niu Dazhuang was the initiator of this incident and begged the witch doctor!
At last, the old witch doctor couldn't help but tell Niu Dazhuang that she had a way, but I'm not sure if it would work? However, no matter what the consequences of this event are, they should be borne by Niu Dazhuang himself.
Niudazhuang agrees now.
The old witch doctor found the ancient well in the village and said that he would do something beside the ancient well. He asked the land lord to spare the villagers and put antidotes in the ancient well.
Anyway, the process is very complicated. Niu Dazhuang didn't elaborate. He just said that the old witch doctor had done a whole day's magic near the ancient well. Until dusk, he didn't let the villagers draw water in the well. Everyone had a drink, and they couldn't drink more.
After taking the well completion water, everyone's symptoms were relieved.
But it's only temporary. Not long ago, the villagers' condition worsened overnight. All of them had blisters in their legs, and even vaguely saw worms wriggling.
Everyone was scared to be silly. Niu Dazhuang had to go to the old witch doctor again.
When he found the old witch doctor, he was shocked to find that the old witch doctor was trying to hang!
Niudazhuang stops her and asks why she did it? The old witch doctor helplessly said that the land Lord didn't intend to let the villagers go, and even this matter involved her.
So she had no choice but to commit suicide.
She said that she would rather hang herself than be killed by the Lord of the land, because that way of death is so miserable.
Niu Dazhuang can only comfort the old witch doctor and ask her not to do stupid things. He has a way to save the villagers.
Of course, that's just to comfort the old witch doctor. In fact, Niu Dazhuang has no idea what to do about it.
I didn't expect to see Pockmarked Li and I at the critical moment.
after listening to as like as two peas, I am very sad. The villagers' symptoms, even the details are just like those of Li Ma Zi.
I asked Niu Dazhuang if the women didn't dig that pile of skeletons?
Why only men have knee problems, but women don't.
Niu Dazhuang shook his head and said that all the villagers were involved, no matter the men, women, old and young, except the old witch doctor.
That's strange. If the villagers get revenge for digging skeletons, why are women OK? Is it not the old witch doctor's saying that the land lord values the son over the daughter?
This is ridiculous, isn't it!
Seeing my hesitation, Niu Dazhuang hurriedly asked me if there was any way to solve the problem. I'm looking forward to the stars and the moon. No matter what I ask, they all agree. As long as they can make the whole village no longer sick.
