Chapter 141 Seven Knife Marks, Seven People Hang Themselves
When Xu Duoduo heard Ye Ling introduce herself, her transparent body floated to Chu Tian's side.
She looked at Chu Tian and said to Ye Ling with a smile, "Hehe, this little guy is very timid. Just now I blew on his back, and he was trembling all over."
Chu Tian blushed, no wonder he felt a chill in the back of his head all the time, it turned out that this hundred year old girl and old monster was causing the trouble.
Ye Ling smiled and said, "Okay, Dodo, please tell them about the night civet cat! Only you are the most familiar with it here, and even the information I know is from the materials of the Nine Offices. "
Chu Tian found that after Xu Duoduo came out, Ye Ling changed from his previous state, no longer cold, but always smiling.
No wonder Ye Ling said that she was invited because she was familiar with the people in this so-called Night Limao Village.
After hearing this, Xu Duoduo sat down beside Chu Tian.
She pondered for a while, and then on her translucent face, there was no laughing expression, but a serious expression, and she slowly began to narrate.
Forty-four years ago, a strange thing happened in a village in the Qinling Mountains.
This village has been isolated from the outside world before, and even the invasion of the Dragon Kingdom by the island country back then did not affect it.
In 1987, it was the era of rapid development of Longguo, and this village welcomed the first wave of outsiders.
It is a drilling force sent by the country to dig wells and supply water for remote mountainous areas to solve the problem of difficult draft and drinking water.
At that time, when the drilling team came to the village, they were refused to enter the village, and after repeated negotiations to no avail.
But they couldn't just withdraw like this. If they went back without completing the task, they would definitely be punished.
The platoon leader of this unit thought of a way to get the best of both worlds. They planned to drill the well outside the village.
It is not far from the village, and the villagers can also use it conveniently, no need to run down the mountain to fetch water.
Similarly, they can also complete tasks and go back to work with the organization.
After surveying, they selected a location, about 20 meters away from the entrance of the village, and began to lower the drill bit.
Originally, it was very difficult to drill wells in the mountains and highlands. Their drilling team had drilled down many times in the past, and they might not be able to produce water.
This time, I was so lucky that I hit it with one blow. A few hours later, water gushed out immediately.
The villagers who have been observing in the village were also very happy to see that this group of outsiders really came to help them, and that the water really came out.
From the initial vigilance, rejection, and non-acceptance, it became a warm hospitality.
The platoon leader who led the drilling team saw the water coming out, first ordered to plug the water hole, and then started to manually start digging down along the drill bit.
At that time, because the cement pipes could not be transported to the mountain at all, the cement pipes could not be lowered to make cement wells.
They can only use the most primitive method, dig it down manually, and then build the well body with stones.
In this way, they kept busy until dark. Originally, the platoon leader was going to work overnight.
But it was raining heavily. The village saw these soldiers sincerely helping them. After seeing the rain, they invited them into the village and gave them shelter from the rain.
After entering the village, the platoon leader said, "Village chief, no one lives in this courtyard, let's take shelter from the rain here!"
The village head said that he had already arranged a place for the soldiers at his house, and told the platoon leader that the yard was not clean and there were dirty things.
The platoon leader said at the time, "We don't believe that. This place is close to the entrance of the village. We will take a rest here and wait for the rain to stop so that we can continue working."
The village chief really couldn't handle the platoon leader, so he had no choice but to allow them to enter the courtyard at the entrance of the village.
This courtyard feels like it has just been renovated, and the bricks and mud walls are all newly built.
The yard is huge and there are many rooms in it.
A platoon of soldiers, plus the drilling team.
There were a total of forty-eight people, all crowded in the house, and they began to live and cook.
At this time, old man Jin, the leader of the drilling team, led the men to fix the drilling machine, and was the last one to enter the house.
After entering, he looked around.
Then, all of a sudden, all the drilling crews were about to leave the house.
And, get everyone to move out.
For this matter, he also quarreled with several soldiers.
After hearing this, the platoon leader ran over from another room and asked what happened.
Old man Jin pointed to the beams of the house, and said with his leaky mouth, "This house is the best among haunted houses. You will get into trouble here."
Everyone looked up and followed his fingers.
There are seven knife marks on the beam.
All the soldiers, including the platoon leader, didn't know what it meant.
Old Jin said slowly, "Every knife mark represents a person who hanged himself on this beam.
There is a custom in Shaanxi that if someone hangs himself in a room, he will cut a mark on the beam of the room.
There are seven traces on this beam, representing seven people who hanged themselves to death here.
Possibly, this is why the courtyard is empty. "
After Jin Lao finished speaking, the soldiers and the drilling team were in a commotion.
A flash of lightning flashed, and they seemed to see seven corpses hanging there.
However, the platoon leader was unwilling at this time. He pointed at Mr. Jin and said that he was superstitious and talking nonsense there.
In the 1980s, it was time to crack down on feudal superstition.
As the platoon leader in the army, he finally climbed to this position, which was naturally the decision of the user party.
Old man Jin sighed and did not argue with him, but he brought his son and daughter out of the yard.
The other drilling crews hesitated.
At this time, the food was out of the pan, which directly dispelled their idea of following them out.
Old man Jin's children followed behind him, persuading him.
But he just refused to go back, and he was determined not to allow the two of them to go back to that yard.
The three of them squatted overnight in the donkey shed at the entrance of the village.
The next morning, the heavy rain gradually stopped pouring.
This night, nothing ominous happened as old man Jin said.
After breakfast, everyone started working again.
Because it rained all night, the dug well was covered with mud and rainwater.
The platoon leader first arranged for people to go down to clean up the mud.
Suddenly, a person who was cleaning up the mud in the well began to yell, his voice was extremely desolate.
Everyone thought that something happened, and they all lay down at the mouth of the well and looked down.
But after yelling for a while, this person returned to normal. When others asked him what he was yelling, he said that he didn't yell.
Just when everyone was wondering, the other three people at the bottom of the well suddenly started shouting, and the voices kept coming and going, which was even more terrifying.
After more than ten seconds, these people returned to normal. When others asked, they also said that they did not shout.
Then everyone dispersed, thinking that the four of them were bored at the bottom of the well, teasing and joking with everyone.
