01 Iron Box Prophecy

A rectangular box cast in iron, two feet long, one foot wide, and half a foot thick, is also engraved with a cloud dragon pattern. Judging by its appearance, it should be hundreds of years old, and it is even very likely to be an antiquity of the Tang and Song dynasties.

And the whole bizarre case started with this iron box.

The incident happened in the territory of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, at the beginning it was the corpses of three outsiders who were found in the wilderness, all of them were cut off by a sharp blade, killed by a knife, looking like a tomb robber in the mountains and wilderness, and there were a lot of dark and filthy gold, silver and jade objects scattered next to the corpses, which were obviously unearthed not long ago. After the people of the nearby Chenjia village found the body, they looted the gold, silver and jade artifacts at the scene of the murder, and then called people to go to the county seat to report to the official. Chen Laosan in the village was late, so he only had time to pick up an iron box next to the corpse, but he couldn't open it, so he had to mumble a few words and scold and take the iron box home.

After that, Chen Laosan went to the house of Widow Li at the end of the village to gamble for a night, and when he returned to his house the next day, he found that his wife had died tragically in her bed, and like the three tomb robbers from other places, she had also been cut off by a sharp knife. And there are still a lot of bruises and redness on his wife's body, and it looks like she was defiled before her death.

You must know that Chen Laosan's wife is only in her early thirties, and she has a bit of a look, and she has always been coveted by several descendants in the village. Seeing that his wife was raped and killed, Chen Laosan was so shocked that he almost went crazy on the spot. Fortunately, the county seat yamen received a report yesterday and sent the arrester to the nearby wilderness to investigate the murder of a tomb robber from other places, so he came to Chenjia Village to investigate the murder of Chen Laosan's wife. After some searching, the crowd did not find any clues for a while, and confiscated the three tomb robbers in the village, and heard that the iron box in Chen Laosan's house was also one of them, so they confiscated it and brought it back to the county along with other gold, silver and jade artifacts.

There is a way that the world is as black as a crow, and how the county yamen handles cases is very different from place to place. With regard to this murder case of a tomb robber from another place who had no bitter master, and it coincided with the withdrawal of King Heng's rebels from the border of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, which caused the coastal pirates to become more and more rampant. The head catcher in charge of this case saw that the catchers brought back a lot of artifacts from Chenjia Village, and knew that the local county lord liked antiques the most, so he sent all the gold, silver and jade artifacts to the county lord's mansion along with the iron box, and regarded it as the filial piety of his subordinates.

The county magistrate got these dark weapons, and he didn't pay attention to them for a while, but only asked the servants to pile them up in the utility room on the house. Who knew that since then, in the next few days, the county magistrate's mansion began to be "haunted" non-stop. First, the food in the house was stolen, then the chickens and dogs that were fed were cooked and killed, and then the gold and silver in the house were lost for no reason. Later, there were often people who saw strange figures walking around the house, but after careful inspection, they found nothing, there were no strangers at all, and in the end it was said that there was something unclean in the house.

For this reason, the catchers in the yamen also came to the county prince's mansion to carefully check several times, and even invited monks to subdue demons and eliminate demons, but they all returned in vain, and no one could tell the reason. Later, the haunting of the house became more and more rampant, and in broad daylight, the fourth concubine of the county master's family was actually defiled by a man in the room, and the whole person became stupid and stupid, and he couldn't ask why.

The county magistrate was frightened, and almost all the catchers, tolerances, and servants in the yamen were transferred to his own mansion to station, and he could find out the cause of the haunting even if he said anything. Until late one night, another person bumped into a stranger figure in the lady's room, and the county magistrate ordered everyone to surround the entire mansion on the third floor and the outer three floors, and then ordered the arrester to enter the mansion and search inch by inch. In the end, although they couldn't find the figure, they turned out the batch of artifacts confiscated from Chenjia Village in the grocery room, and combined with the haunted time of the county prince's mansion, as well as the death of the three foreign tomb robbers and Chen Laosan's wife, everyone woke up and speculated that the haunting of the county lord's mansion must be related to these artifacts, and most of them were unclean things attached to them.

So everyone counted the gold, silver and jade items one by one in the utility room, and then they paid attention to the iron box in it. However, no matter how hard everyone tried, they couldn't open the iron box, but it was as if there was some kind of machine spring in the box, and the whole box was locked from the inside.

In the end, a catcher quickly found two giant axes for chopping wood, and wanted to split the iron box straight for inspection. Unexpectedly, before the giant axe fell, all the people present heard a strange man's voice at the same time, which resounded in everyone's ears in a real and illusory way, and said in a strange tone: "The sky is pouring blood and rain, and the earth is full of corpses." The world is upside down, and China has fallen!"

For a while, everyone present looked at me, I looked at you, and they searched for it, only to find that the voice of this strange man actually came from the iron box in front of them. You must know that this iron box is only two feet long, one foot wide, and half a foot thick, and it can't even fit a human head into it, let alone hide a living person, how can words come out of it?

Fortunately, there were many people present, and when they encountered such a strange thing in the middle of the night, they didn't mess up. There was the courage to ask about the iron box in front of him, and this iron box actually answered one by one, and everything he said was in ancient times. It turned out that the man's voice in the iron box said that he was originally an earth immortal who had attained the Tao in the flesh, and he temporarily lived in this iron box to cultivate, calling himself "the fairy in the box", because he used the immortal method to predict that the Central Plains was about to usher in an unprecedented blood-light disaster, and even the whole country would be destroyed, so he deliberately entered the WTO to warn and exhorted the world to flee for his life as soon as possible and rush to the west of the Qinling Mountains as soon as possible, so as to have a glimmer of life.

You must know that in the Central Plains of Fangjin, there are remnants of foreign races in the north of the desert, and in the northwest there are Turkic, Beshbali, Khanate, Persia and Tubo five countries gathered to form a coalition army in Jiayuguan, plus the Heng King who rebelled in the south of the Yangtze River and the Dongying Japanese Kou who were raging along the coast, it is indeed a symptom of great chaos in the world, which is undoubtedly a little tired of dealing with the unstable country. It was because everyone present heard the words coming out of the box, but most of the people were convinced of this "fairy in the box", and they knelt down and kowtowed. After that, many people left the house in a hurry, and the news spread throughout the county.

However, in the end, the county magistrate is a parent official, how can he believe the nonsense that comes out of an iron box? In addition, his concubine was defiled by others, so he insisted that there was a demon who was responsible for it, and told the rest of the people in the house to split the iron box no matter what. After that, no one could tell what happened, until the people outside entered the county lord's mansion again, only to find that everyone who remained on the spot had been killed, and their throats had been cut by sharp blades, even the county lord.

Fortunately, there was a lucky survivor of the catcher recall, saying that at that time, the county magistrate asked someone to forcibly open the box, and before he could do it, the iron box had opened on its own, and a large cloud of black gas came out of it, permeating the entire grocery room, and then the screams of the people present were heard one after another. And because he was shocked by the words in the iron box, he was about to leave the mansion at that time, and his feet had already stepped out of the threshold of the grocery room, so he could escape in time and pick up a life, and naturally he didn't have the courage to see what was going on in the house.

After this incident, the whole county is already panicked, and many people really packed up their belongings, left their hometowns, and took refuge all the way to the west because of this "iron box prophecy", which provoked many people in nearby villages to follow suit and flee from Jiangsu and Zhejiang one after another. Soon after, the villagers of "Xiaoyu Township", two hundred miles away, dug a canal, and when the soil was turned over, this rectangular box cast by iron and engraved with the pattern of a cloud dragon appeared in front of the people of Xiaoyu Village again.
