Chapter 136: Who's Carrying Water
After autumn, the most important thing is to prevent fire, because there are not many fierce beasts in the mountains and forests in this Taihang Mountain, and we have so many people this time, even if we encounter wolves, wild boars and the like, we don't have to be afraid.
But if there is a fire. The mountains are full of withered grass and trees, and we are afraid that we will suffer.
So not long after we entered the mountain, Lin Sen began to remind us to pay attention to fire prevention.
Fortunately, none of us smoke, as long as we pay attention to cooking and boiling water.
Speaking of this water, it is also a troublesome matter for our operation, this Bainiao Village was a famous dry village before. Nine and a half of the ten streams around us have dried up, so we have to save the water we carry on our backs.
These days, we don't even have water to brush our teeth and wash our faces, so we just rely on chewing gum to brush our teeth, and if we wash our faces, we just look in the mirror and rub off the black places with our hands, of course, it's okay if we don't rub them, anyway, we people. No one is better than the other.
No one will laugh at anyone.
This time it is much easier to walk than the first time Wang Junhui and I went to that Xiaoxitian, after all, there was a village here twenty years ago, so there are still some mountain roads here, although we haven't walked for twenty years, it has been a lot of barren, but it can be slightly corrected, and it is not a big problem for us to pass.
Because we carried a lot of water, we couldn't go fast along the way, and we had to stop from time to time to recuperate.
Although there are a few elders in our team, the whole team is still what Wang Junhui said, he said stop, we stopped, we said to go, we said, we drove down, we have reached the deep mountains. The latest chapter has been uploaded
Looking around, there were no people. This feeling seems to return to the scene when I first cooperated with Wang Junhui and went to Xiaoxitian.
It was only early summer, and now it's early winter, and half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
Along the way, I naturally had to take care of Xu Ruohui, although she was self-reliant, but she did not have the experience of climbing mountains and wading through water, although she gritted her teeth and persevered, but I could still see that she was very tired.
In between dinners, I talked to her for a while on a nearby hill and asked about her, and she told me that I don't have to worry, she can hold on.
After eating, assigning the night watch, we went to bed early.
The first day passed like this, and this time I didn't go to Xiaoxitian's weirdness. It's like we people are out camping, it's just that we're here at the wrong time.
In this way, it took us three days to sink deep into the mountains, and we finally began to make discoveries.
This is the base of a large mountain, and when we look up, we can see the mountain, and it is nothing. But Wang Junhui told us to stop and said, "We set up a tent here, and the village is right in front of us." ”
I looked up, and there were still only mountains and not too dense woods, and there was nothing like a dilapidated village
Wang Junhui took off the salute on his back and said, "You can't see it with the naked eye, you have to use it here to see it." ”
As he spoke, he pointed to his heart.
He won't say I'm careless
Along the way, the seniors were more energetic than the other, occasionally bickering, so leisurely, but before they arrived at this mountain, their expressions became serious all of a sudden, and Master Lu directly held up his palm and recited: "Amitabha." ”
The little monk also recited a sentence in the same way as the master.
We first cleared a flat area here and pitched our tents, and then we found dry firewood and sticks to erect a makeshift fenced courtyard.
Wang Junhui said that it is slightly safer to solve the grievances of this bird village and get down this fence.
At this time, our water has bottomed out, so after arranging everything here, Wang Junhui proposed to go into Bainiao Village to go to the Bailing Well to get water.
It's almost evening, if there really is that village on the mountain, it's definitely not a good time to go now, so I want to object, but Second Master Tang took the initiative to stand up and say: "In this way, Lao Jiang, you stay to protect the others, I, Lao Lu and Junhui go into the village to get water, if we just take water and don't conflict with that grievance well, according to the few supernatural powers who have been here before, we shouldn't be in any danger." ”
Wang Junhui also nodded, expressing his agreement with Second Master Tang's proposal.
Jiang Shuihan thought for a while, and said without refusing: "If there is anything, send a signal in time, and we will save you." ”
Second Master Tang waved his hand and said, "A few of us have more than enough to protect ourselves. ”
Before leaving, Wang Junhui walked up to me and asked me: "On the first day of junior high school, you can give me a divination, calculate whether we will meet the ghost of the resentful well when we go to get water this time." ”
Wang Junhui's eyebrows are turbid, but they are all light and turbid, and it seems that they are all small troubles for the time being, since they are small troubles, it means that he will not meet Lin Bailing.
So I shook my head and said, "No." ”
Wang Junhui patted me on the shoulder and said, "I'm relieved." ”
The reason why Wang Junhui took on such a dangerous case was entirely to accompany me into Sichuan, so after thinking for a while, he said to him: "I'll follow you, so that we will have Tao, monks, and ministers, and there will be more ways to deal with anything. ”
Saying that, I also looked at the faces of the few people left behind, and there was no disaster.
Wang Junhui hesitated, but nodded in agreement.
Seeing that I was going, the Zhang Shaojie brought by the second master Tang said that he was going too, and the second master thought for a while and said: "You don't have to follow this time, stay and help your Grandpa Jiang take care of other people, remember to collect your heart, don't poke out any baskets for me, your Grandpa Jiang is not as soft-hearted as me." ”
Zhang Shaojie nodded.
What a basket to poke Lou Zi
I didn't understand the meaning of Second Master Tang's words, so I asked him, and he shook his head and said, "Don't talk about it, our master's matter, that child's life is a little bitter." ”
Seeing that I followed into the Bird Village, Xu Ruohui handed over the rabbit and asked me to hold it, I also had to carry the kettle, and it was a little inconvenient to hold the rabbit, so she said to Xu Ruohui: "There will be no danger for us to go this time, I expected it, don't worry, the rabbit will stay." ”
Wang Junhui and Li Yajing also said simply.
Each of the four of us carried a kettle up the mountain, and Wang Junhui also held a rope in his hand, saying that it was a well rope for drawing water for a while.
As I walked, I asked Wang Junhui if the people from Bainiao Village would go to a place a few miles away from their village to fetch water, and why didn't we choose to go to those places, at least to be safer.
Wang Junhui said: "Do you know why people in those villages were transferred after the complaining well incident?"
I shook my head, Wang Junhui said: "This is the water vein is open, all the wells with water in this vicinity are resentful wells, those people in the village, before they moved away, there were many people, in their own village entrance of the well saw the Bailing sitting guarding the well, after knowing about this, they transferred the people away, if it is later, those people will be killed by the resentment of Bailing sooner or later." ”
Saying that, Wang Junhui paused for a moment, and then continued: "Fortunately, the range of this water vein in the mountain is not large, otherwise the trouble will be even greater. ”
Second Master Tang also said next to him: "Junhui said yes. ”
The closer we got to the mountain, the more vague it became, and finally I couldn't see it at all, not because it was too dark, but because the fog was so thick in the vicinity, and when the fog started, why didn't we see it when we went down the mountain.
Entering the range of the mist, Wang Junhui unfolded the rope and asked us to pull a section of our body so that we would not be separated in the thick fog.
The fog was so thick that I estimated that the visibility would be only four or five meters.
It's the first time I've seen such a big fog.
Grasping my body into this fog, Wang Junhui reminded me that these were not ordinary fogs, but the grievances of Bailing and the villagers here.
We couldn't see this fog just now, because Bai Ling used his own ability to hide several nearby villages, so we can only see the mountain, and these "anger" are the second barrier for Bai Ling to hide those villages, and many people will lose their way when they enter this fog, and they will encounter ghosts hitting the wall, and then return from the same way, and they will not be able to enter the village at all.
If he goes in occasionally, it will be difficult for him to come out again.
This layer of fog is not very thick, about 100 meters, we walked through the thick layer of fog, and saw the original appearance of this village.
Countless dilapidated houses, overgrown streets, and ruined and collapsed walls everywhere.
And the moment we entered the village, my Ombudsman and Hearing Officer turned on automatically, apparently something dirty was moving around us.
I looked around, but I didn't see anything.
Wang Junhui said: "This should be Bainiao Village, if it is other villages occupied by Bailing, there should not be such a heavy grievance." ”
As Wang Junhui spoke, Master Lu pointed to a fallen stone tablet at the entrance of the village.
We used to see the village monument of Bainiaozhai.
briefly narrated the story of the Four Phoenix Immortals, of course, the events of the Guangxu period were not recorded above, after all, it was a stain on the village.
After confirming that this was Bainiao Village, Wang Junhui said: "According to the story told by my master, the grievance well should be halfway up the mountainside, let's go into the village to find out." ”
It was supposed to be dark that day, and the village was shrouded in a thick fog, so we couldn't see our fingers here, but we could see everything here.
It's a strange feeling that the light here isn't bright, but it can be seen very clearly.
After walking for a while, Wang Junhui stopped with a "huh", I asked him what was wrong, and he said, look at the ground.
When we looked down at the same time, we saw that there were some traces of water droplets on the ground wetting the soil, and they happened to form a line one by one, as if many people were carrying water through here.
The wet soil is still very fresh, that is, the people who have dived through this place have not gone far.
In other words, is it possible that there are still living people in this village?
Or rather, a ghost is carrying water
