Murong Danyan listened to Wang Xiaoyu tell about the haunted past of Lao Weng Mountain, and thought that Wangjiazhuang was not far from Lao Weng Mountain, and he was a little frightened. It's just that after thinking about it, he and Li Qiufeng broke into the Jingxin Temple together, and saw all kinds of illusions in the underground imperial city, all of which were harmful illusions conjured up by Yao Guangxiao with Ecstasy Grass and Qimen Five Elements, not really ghosts and gods. According to Li Qiufeng, there are no ghosts in the world, but some people are playing tricks, or doing bad things, and are afraid that ghosts will knock on the door, which will give rise to hallucinations.

Thinking of this, she felt a little relieved. I only heard Wang Xiaoyu continue: "After the temple was built, there were really fewer haunted things. At that time, the Tartar soldiers thought that whether it was the Khitans or the Jin soldiers, they were all enemies of the Tartars. Although they built a temple under Lao Weng Mountain, it was not to admit defeat to the Khitans and Jin soldiers, but they just wanted to surpass these resentful souls, so as not to harm the world. It was the Tartar officials who wrote a plaque for the main hall of this temple that said 'Hall of Unscrupulous', telling the world that the resentful spirits sacrificed in this temple were not good people.

"It's just that the good times didn't last long, and after the Tartars occupied the Central Plains, they levied and oppressed the Han people. Emperor Taizu raised an army against the Yuan, defeated the Tartar soldiers, and forced the Tartars to retreat to Mobei. It's just that the Tartar soldiers guarding Liaodong refused to surrender, and fought fiercely with the Ming army until they retreated to Motianling. There was another great battle between the two sides at Motianling, and the Tartar soldiers were completely annihilated, and many Tartar soldiers were captured.

"When the officers and soldiers and the Tartar soldiers fought fiercely on the top of the Sky Ridge, the people of Dongliao County were oppressed by the Tartars for decades, hated the Tartars to the bone, and begged the commanders of the Ming army to beg to kill these Tartar soldiers. However, the general said to the people that the Ming army was a royal division and had strict discipline, and if they killed prisoners indiscriminately, wouldn't they become beasts like the Khitans and the Jin?

"It's just that we Han people know the truth, but the Tartar soldiers are still fierce. A group of defeated Tartar soldiers fled from the Sky Ridge, coerced hundreds of people, occupied the unscrupulous temple at the foot of Lao Weng Mountain, resisted stubbornly, and refused to surrender. The officers and soldiers surrounded the unscrupulous hall, but it was only because the few people in the morning were used as hostages by the Tartar soldiers that they could not storm it. The Tartar soldiers were stationed in the temple, and when they had no food, they killed the people to eat......"

Murong Danyan let out an "ah", and this time he couldn't even speak. Wang Xiaoyu said: "At the beginning, the officers and soldiers wanted to persuade the Tartar soldiers to surrender, and even asked the leaders of the Tartar soldiers who surrendered after being captured to shout outside the temple to ask the Tartar soldiers to surrender. As a result, before the leader could say a word, a cold arrow was suddenly fired in the temple, and the leader was shot to death in front of the temple. The officers and soldiers had no choice but to surround the temple, but they did not dare to attack.

A few days later, one of the people took advantage of the unpreparedness of the Tartars and fled from the temple desperately. It's just that he was about to flee to the officer and soldier camp, but he was shot by the Tartar soldiers with more than a dozen arrows, and when the officers and soldiers rescued him, he was already dying. Before he died, he told the officers and soldiers that most of the people who were coerced to the temple were killed by the Tartar soldiers and shared their food, and the remaining dozens of women were also tortured by the Tartar soldiers to the point that they were not human. If these people are not rescued, they will all be killed by the Tartar soldiers.

"When the officers and soldiers heard that the Tartar soldiers had done such a thing that was inferior to beasts, they knew that the Tartars would not surrender if they waited any longer, so they immediately attacked the temple. The Tartar soldiers resisted desperately, and even set fire to the temple, wanting to die with the officers and soldiers. At that time, the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were not as pustud as they were later, and everyone fought desperately to kill the enemy, killing most of these Tartar soldiers who were inferior to beasts, and the remaining two or three hundred Tartar soldiers were caught by the officers and soldiers and dragged out of the temple.

Although the officers and soldiers eliminated these Tartar soldiers, most of the people they held were eaten, and only white bones and skeletons were left in the temple, which looked terrifying. The remaining dozens of women were either killed in the chaos or burned to death in the fire. After this battle, the temple rebuilt by the Tartars was burned to the ground.

"When the official soldiers besieged the Tartar soldiers, the people of Dongliao County sent food and water one after another to help the officers and soldiers kill the enemy. When the officers and soldiers eliminated the Tartar soldiers, the people were furious when they heard that the Tartars were feeding on hostages in the temple. Seeing the captured Tartar soldiers surrounded by officers and soldiers outside the temple, the people immediately flocked to the temple and beat these Tartars to death despite the obstruction of the officers and soldiers. Those Tartar soldiers were originally fierce, but the people were also angry, not only kicking with fists and feet, but even opening their mouths to bite. The Tartar soldiers did not expect that the Han people, whom they regarded as pigs and dogs, would be so fierce that they were so frightened that they knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. But how could the people pay attention to it, and they beat harder. In the end, the two or three hundred Tartar soldiers were separated and died in a miserable state.

"After this battle, there are thousands of resentful spirits under Lao Weng Mountain, and the ghosts are even more powerful. At that time, the Ming Dynasty had just established the country, rested with the people, and could not afford to build temples again. After the Great War, the population of Liaodong became more and more sparse, and even thousands of miles of uninhabited. The area is deserted, and no one lives here, except for a few families. When my father bought the land, no one told him about the haunting of Old Weng Mountain. It wasn't until he took his people to divide the fields that a family living at the foot of Lao Weng Mountain told him about it.

"My father didn't believe in hauntings at first, and thought it was nonsense from the people. It's just that when he saw the ghost appear with his own eyes, he was so frightened that he fled back to Zhuangzi desperately, and then he fell seriously ill and almost lost his life. Two of the Wang clansmen who went with him to divide the fields were slow to escape, and they were captured by ghosts and disappeared.

"After my father recovered from his illness, he knew that there must be something strange about Old Weng Mountain. After discussing with the elders of the clan, he made a rule that all the people of Wangjiazhuang were absolutely not allowed to set foot in the left and several miles of Lao Weng Mountain. If someone breaks the rules, they must be driven out of Wangjiazhuang and left to fend for themselves.

Later, the haunting of Lao Weng Mountain became more and more intense, and everyone in the entire Dongliao County knew about it, and even the people of Liaoyang Mansion heard about it. Some bold people don't believe in any ghosts in the world, so they deliberately go to Lao Weng Mountain to take a walk. As a result, some people disappeared because of this, but some people were frightened into madness, and gradually no one dared to approach Lao Weng Mountain. The magistrate of Dongliao County, the yamen, was afraid of another death, because Lao Weng Mountain and the land near the left had been bought by my father, so the magistrate gave an order to my father, asking my father to guard Lao Weng Mountain and not allow people to come near here. If he dies again, he will take my father for his crimes. My father had just planned to buy land to cultivate, but unexpectedly got into such a big trouble, not only could the fields not be cultivated, but he was also frightened. In desperation, my father had no choice but to recruit Zhuang Ding and set up checkpoints in all directions of Lao Weng Mountain, not allowing people to approach. ”

When Wang Xiaoyu said this, he paused slightly, sighed, and then continued: "Sister Murong, I guess my father later accepted people with the surname of Wang to live in Wangjiazhuang, and it was also because he had to guard Lao Weng Mountain, relying on the hundred and ten people in Wangjiazhuang alone, and the manpower must be insufficient, so he had to make this decision." Alas, I think Daddy's move is like drinking water to quench his thirst, and the consequences will be endless.

"Daddy saw evil ghosts in Lao Weng Mountain, it was more than ten years ago. I was still a little girl who didn't know anything, and my father was worried that I was frightened and uneasy, because he had never told me about the haunting of Old Weng Mountain. I spend my days at home playing, carefree and happy. It wasn't until five years ago that I strayed into Lao Weng Mountain and saw and saw a hundred ghosts walking at night, that I knew that there was such a terrible place only half a mile away from Wangjiazhuang. ”

Murong Danyan trembled slightly when she heard Wang Xiaoyu's voice, knowing that what she had encountered was really not small, and she was also a little suspicious and uneasy in her heart. I saw Wang Xiaoyu take a deep breath, and then continued: "I remember that it was a day in July, and the sky was full of dark clouds in the morning, and it was about to rain. Daddy went out to do business, and he had been gone for three or four days. This is a normal thing for me. I read a few pages of the book, and when I had nothing to do, I went to the backyard garden to play. It was almost noon when Uncle Wang asked someone to bring me food. I finished my lunch and got bored. Seeing the dark clouds in the sky, although it was broad daylight, the surroundings were as dark as dusk. The servants of the house saw that the heavy rain was coming, and there was nothing to do in the yard, so they all turned around the house and talked and played cards. It was empty in the courtyard, like an empty house.

"I was lying on my stomach at the window and watching the dragonflies fly low and the cicadas chirped in a disturbing way. I slipped out of the house and found a long pole to poke one of the loudest cicadas out of the tree. It's just that the cicada was so cunning that it escaped. I was unwilling and desperately chased after it. Before I knew it, I went out of the courtyard through the corner gate. Alas, if I had known that I would encounter a hundred ghosts in the future, I wouldn't have chased this damn cicada if I had killed it!"
