Chapter 64: Dry Bone Piling
The so-called lu is the most powerful kind of walking corpse, which can come and go without a trace, killing people invisibly.
Once formed, it will take all the resources around it for itself, especially absorbing local water to nourish its own yin energy.
As long as there is a place with a fish, there must be a great drought, so it is called a drought, in the old society, it does not rain for three months, one has to ask the dragon king for rain, and the other is to hit the dry bone pile - find out the drought, break up the bones, and the water will come back.
I immediately remembered - I watched the news a few days ago, and I saw a drought in the local area.
Du Zhizhi told me that the Heavenly Master's Mansion also sent some feng shui gentlemen, but they couldn't find the drought's nest, the situation is getting worse day by day, and it seems that they can only be found through the method of looking at qi, this matter is very important, so the best person I can think of is me.
Cheng Xinghe sneered when he heard this: "Lu, no wonder Mr. Du is willing to open such good conditions, it is really a hard job, and it is not much different from bomb disposal." β
Du Zhizhi has a kind of high cultivation of upper-class people, and she doesn't care, a pair of big eyes only look at me fixedly, and the light in her eyes is flowing, which is particularly exciting: "Of course, it is not easy to do, so it is natural to let those who have the ability to do it." β
With my current ability to look at qi, it shouldn't be difficult to find out the drought, if you find the drought, it will save the natural disaster, and the second grade of the Yellow Order must not be a problem.
What's more, I have less and less time, and I have to find Jiang Cripple, and now the Heavenly Master's Mansion has not been found, so it is the only clue to find Jiang Cripple.
Although this matter is a prickly matter, the benefits are not small, and overall it is worth it, so I nodded and agreed.
Du Zhizhi was not surprised at all, as if she knew that I would agree, and gave me a prepared address: "I have already said hello to the local residents, and they will help you after you go." β
Cheng Xinghe frowned when he saw that I agreed, but he also wanted to find Jiang Cripple, so he didn't stop him, and looked like he was sacrificing his life to accompany the gentleman: "There is one more important thing to ask." β
Du Zhizhi nodded: "You say." β
"Do you reimburse the round-trip travel expenses and food and accommodation?"
Du Zhizhi smiled: "Of course, in addition, there is also heavy thanks." β
Cheng Xinghe's face is a little better, and he said that you are sincere. Then he bumped me on the shoulder, whispering that the reputation of the Heavenly Master's Mansion is here, and he is not afraid that they will repay the debt.
At this moment, suddenly there was a coughing sound from inside the door.
The old man's voice.
Now I remembered that the first rule set by the old man for me was not to conform to the yin and yang group.
And the Heavenly Master's Mansion is the highest-end yin and yang group.
Du Zhizhi heard the coughing sound, and glanced into the house a little curiously: "Is there anyone else in your family?" β
"My third uncle and grandfather are a little demented."
I was weak for a while - I first violated the third rule, then the first rule, and then married a famous Bai Fumei like Du Zhizhi, and the rules were all broken.
But this is pure nonsense, how can Du Zhizhi look down on me.
Little did I know at the time that this was another regrettable decision.
When Du Zhizhi left, I went to see the address, which was actually not far from us, so I said to the old man: "Third uncle and grandfather, I will go out for a few days, and I will ask Teacher Gao to take care of you in a while, don't run around - don't forget the scar and forget the pain." β
The old man put one hand on the back of Xiaobai's feet, squinted his eyes and sang: "Let's go, let's go, people must learn to grow up by themselves, let's go, let's go, life will inevitably experience painful struggles......"
Why do you still sing pop songs? And how do you know I'm going to struggle?
Cheng Xinghe never knew how to be idle with one mouth, and he also sang to me: "Let's go, let's go, find a home for your heart......"
The two of you can make your debut in a group.
I told the little white foot again to let it take care of the old man, and the little white foot meowed proudly, waving its paws as if to reassure me.
Cheng Xinghe said that I am afraid that my brain is a little wrong, and I can entrust people to cats.
How do you know the ability of the little white foot as a sand sculpture?
I asked Cheng Xinghe to drive his hearse to take me there, and the oil money was reimbursed by the Heavenly Master's Mansion.
Cheng Xinghe was very happy and specially filled the oil.
That place is called Shaping Town, and it is two or three hours away from us on the highway.
Watermelons are produced in Shaping Town, and in summer, the watermelons sold on the streets and alleys are all under a slogan: "Shaping Town's, ripe and sweet, sand and scoop!" β
The local melon farmers are also engaged in growing melons, so when there is a drought, it can be said that the people here are not able to make a living, and they have suffered heavy losses.
Sure enough, it can be seen from the highway that there are melon fields here, but the melon vines are all dry, and the ground is cracked into turtle shells.
Cheng Xinghe said while looking at it, no wonder this year's watermelon is so expensive.
When I arrived at the place, I only felt that the heat wave was wave after wave, and the sight in front of me was a little crooked, and the roasted people were uncomfortable, just like when they arrived in Turpan.
When I got out of the car, the address given by Du Zhizhi was a compound, and a few bare-chested peasants were fanning the wind with a bitter face, and when I looked up, I saw that we were suspicious, obviously there are few outsiders here.
I told me what I meant, and those people instantly became excited, and began to run to tell each other: "Here is the gentleman who sees things again!" β
At this call, many people poured out, and we were surrounded by groups, and an old man who looked like a master came out, claiming to be the local village chief, and hurriedly said: "Honorable guests, please, we can be regarded as looking forward to you!" β
As he spoke, he made us a pot of hot tea.
Drinking hot tea on this day, it was like being tortured, but I was really thirsty, and I barely drank a sip, so I almost didn't spit it out - salty, bitter and astringent, what kind of tea is this?
The village chief was a little sorry, saying that now the well and reservoir are dry, and there is only a little stock of water, so we can only drink this, let us not dislike it, and this is soaked in the local unique grass roots, which defeats the fire.
Rao is this, and it also makes those people outside swallow their saliva when they look at it - this is all used to entertain guests, and it seems that they are usually reluctant to drink more than this.
There is no air conditioning inside, and the electric fan is also blowing hot air, which is similar to a sauna, Cheng Xinghe looked at it, his tongue stretched out, and said that he knew that he would not come - this season, life is given by air conditioning.
The village chief was very embarrassed to say that he must arrange an air-conditioned room, begging us not to dislike it, and to help, there are few people, but there can be no more dead people.
As soon as I heard this, Cheng Xinghe and I were stunned for a moment, and we also said in unison: "There are still dead people here?" β
The village chief nodded again and again, but he was a little inexplicable: "Two gentlemen, I don't know?" β
Du Zhizhi didn't say anything!
I suddenly had a sense of foreboding, so I asked the village chief to explain the matter in detail.
The village chief then told us that more than a dozen people had died in the area since the drought.
At the beginning, it was an old man surnamed Liu, who was also a melon farmer, and there were melon sheds in the melon field, in order to prevent someone from stealing melons during the melon harvest season.
The next day his daughter-in-law went up to the melon field to bring him food, and saw that the old man was not moving, and saw that the man was deadβthe body was dry, like a dried corpse that had been dried in the desert for several days.
This night's work, people can't be like this when they die!
This frightened his daughter-in-law, almost crawling back home, of course, the family thought that the old man was killed, but after such an inspection, it was found that the old man had no external injuries at all, and no one knew how the old man died.
While everyone looked at each other, another widow died, just like the old manβdry and unwound.
If you are older, you will say, don't make trouble, right?
Only Lu can absorb people's essence and leave no external injuries.
This caused a lot of panic, and everyone didn't dare to go out, so I didn't just ask someone to see if there was something wrong with feng shui, but the gentleman who came to explore, his face was not good-looking, and he said that he was afraid that it was not something they could deal with.
After such a drag, many people died one after another, at first one a week, then one every three days, and now, almost one a day.
If this continues, won't all the people in this village die?
There have been a lot of timid people who have moved away, but there are still some who are reluctant to leave their homes and have nowhere else to go, so they just stare and wait for someone to come to help.
I said why Du Zhizhi didn't come, and I knew that the drought here was caused by drought, and I thought she calculated it, and she knew that there were dead people here.
The Lu is already powerful - the Lu that can eat so many people in a short period of time is of course even more difficult to deal with.
Du Zhizhi said that she saw that I had the ability, so she pushed me into the fire pit, right?
After Cheng Xinghe heard this, he got up from the chair like a spring, and pulled me out: "I know that Du Zhizhi is a little fox, I see that she is willing to give such good conditions, and I thought that she fell in love with you, it turned out that she asked you to stand up to the thunder, let's go, nothing is important, even if you want to die, you should eat to die, what's the matter with letting the drought fish suck to death?" β
When the village chief saw it, his hands trembled: "Hey, you guys, why are you leaving?" β
Cheng Xinghe waved his hand: "We, like those gentlemen, don't have this ability." β
The villagers who were watching were quite excited, but when they heard this, they all showed disappointed expressions.
At this time, only listening to the sound of "pop", an old lady suddenly knelt in front of us: "Two gentlemen, I beg you, you can save the people in our village!" So many people have already left, and if you leave again, I'm afraid that no gentleman will dare to care about the affairs of our village! β
That old lady is about the same age as my third uncle and grandfather, and this kind of long-lived person can't afford to bow down to us, and he wants to lose his life.
Moreover, the ground is piping hot!
So I hurriedly wanted to help the old lady up, the old lady looked thin, but because the perennial farming is very strong, just can't afford it, crying and said: "I have a handful of old bones, and I am not afraid of death, but the village ...... And a lot of kids! We don't have the money to move out! β
It turned out that there were a lot of left-behind children in this village, all dressed in tattered clothes and very tanned, staring at us with big eyes, obviously not knowing what terrible things were happening in the local area, but they were very curious about everything.
My heart suddenly moved - yes, if this matter is not solved quickly, these children are also in danger.
Cheng Xinghe didn't let himself look there, he just cared about pulling me, and I grabbed him with my backhand: "You don't want to look for Jiang Cripple?" β
Cheng Xinghe pouted: "If you care about this, whether you can go back or not, and return Jiang Cripple." β
Saying that, he sat on the threshold, sighed, and said to himself: "What have I done, with such a Party A as you, where is the thunder on the ......?"
As a result, the threshold burned his buttocks, and he bounced up again.
I was a little happy and promised to go back and treat him to a popsicle.
He glared at me, took a long time from his arms, and took out a handful of snacks and gave them to the children.
Those children had never seen such bells and whistles snacks, they were all excited and began to scramble, Cheng Xinghe showed a fierce face and asked them to be honest, but his eyes were very gentle.
I was going to go to a higher place to see the feng shui here, but at this time, there was a person who said coldly: "Now I know Mr. Qiu, when you hurt people earlier, why didn't you want to have today's retribution?" β
