Zhentian coffin

After Sun Youle returned from Yangcheng, he began to actively take care of his body. After all, for a healthy person, this feeling of weakness is really uncomfortable.

Moreover, even some of his colleagues have been looking at him with strange eyes. Who made him walk in a vain manner, his face pale and weak, and his appearance of excessive indulgence? down.

Sun Youle asked someone to read the list given by Liu Laodao, confirmed that there was no problem with the list, and then started to buy medicines for decoction. Many medicinal materials were expensive, but Sun Youle was single, and he had a lot of savings over the years, so he didn't care about the money.

Coupled with adequate sleep and moderate exercise, Sun Youle felt that he recovered quickly. While recuperating his body, Sun Youle was also rapidly promoting the investigation of the "Liao Zhai Project"

Yes, Sun Youle called the action of investigating this matter the Liao Zhai Project, because he felt that his experience was similar to the plot in Liaozhai. There was Nie Xiaoqian, and there was also the old demon from Montenegro. Of course, he didn't want to be a powerless person The scholar Ning Caichen was the only one, so he wanted to investigate this matter clearly.

Sun Youle gave a report to the college, and added a social practice activity to the students who are about to graduate, that is, to investigate the supernatural events in several places, and then pick out a few of them as typical ones, and make scientific exposures for science popularization , to prevent the public from being used by some criminals.

This is not the first time that this kind of thing has happened. In addition, Sun Youle worked hard behind the scenes to open up connections, so he quickly got the consent and support of the college, and mobilized hundreds of senior students, plus some experienced students. The cooperation of the propaganda backbone and the local government is enough to sit back and relax, but Sun Youle is not at ease, so he personally participated in it.

Taking the barren tomb discovered earlier as the center, the range of [-] kilometers is really too big, including an urban area and three counties, including hundreds of villages and towns. Even if hundreds of them spread out, it is not enough.

So it is impossible to conduct a net-like investigation, but this is not a problem for Sun Youle. He has learned before that whether it is a person or a ghost behind this incident, the place is definitely in the deep mountains and old forests, and it is impossible to be in the old forest. In the downtown area, because only a deserted place can deceive people's eyes and ears. If it is in the downtown area, who knows if it will be seen through.

So Sun Youle set this investigation to some mountainous areas. His reason is very simple. People in the city are well-informed, and some routines may not be able to deceive them. On the contrary, those remote areas are the feudal superstitions. hardest hit area.

This is very reasonable, and naturally no one would refute it. Sun Youle led a group of people into a remote village.

This is a very remote village and town, deep in the mountains, even more than [-] kilometers away from the nearest county seat, but the population of the vast area is less than [-].

That night, they stayed in the guest house in the small town. The city people received warm hospitality. The food and drink were not counted. The key is that after knowing the purpose of their trip, the people in the guest house looked at each other, not understanding what it meant .

Fortunately, Sun Youle's people with rich experience have repeatedly stated that these investigations will not have a bad impact on the local area, and after the typical cases are publicized, they can help the villagers avoid being fooled. Immediately, Sun Youle brought the topic to weird stories.

How can people in the mountains lack this kind of story? There are a lot of strange and eerie stories when they are told. In addition, the eloquence is good and they are good at mobilizing the atmosphere. Those students turned pale with fright, and even some If the girl hadn't been worried about the presence of the teacher, she would have been scared away.

The reception was over, but afterward, Sun Youle went to buy two bottles of good wine and a few packs of peanuts, and then went to the person at the guesthouse, saying that he hadn't heard enough of tonight's story, but when he turned his head, Sun Youle yelled and said it was boring , This is all heard, if you want to listen, you have to listen to the truth.

The person at the guest house was drunk, and he didn't know the southeast, northwest, and came here as soon as he opened his mouth. How could such things be lacking in the mountain village.

"Old man Liu from Xiaodong Village, his daughter-in-law, do you know..."

"There is also the East Bridge, where a dead person was buried..."

"and also····"

Sun Youle memorized while listening, and he didn't go back until the people in the guest house were too drunk to tell the story, and then he wrote down the things he had memorized one by one.

"Five villages, almost every village has no less than three strange incidents within ten years, and the village with the most number has no less than one every year, which is really unimaginable."

After the analysis, Sun Youle sighed, the situation of this small town is too pessimistic. For example, in the worst town, many things happened in the past four or five years, such as villagers lost for no reason, ecstasy, and livestock died for no reason. Wait for a dozen things.

But after so many things happened, they were still indifferent. They just invited some monks and priests to watch, but those monks and priests were still useless after charging high fees.

"Dongqiao Village, I will go here tomorrow, I hope to gain something"

Sun Youle put his hand on a place called Dongqiao Village on the map. This was the village where various incidents happened the most, and he wanted to make a breakthrough here.

······

The next day, Sun Youle divided the team into several teams, and took a few boys to Dongqiao Village. They were led by the town staff. After half a day's long journey, they finally arrived at Dongqiao Village, just at the entrance of the village. I saw a very huge banyan tree covered with red cloth and cigarettes curling up. It is estimated that the villagers regarded this big tree as a sacred tree.

But they were not surprised, this kind of thing happened too often, it was not a rare thing, then the people in the town found the village head and told him about it, the village head didn't understand what it was Meaning, anyway, it's cooperation.

Sun Youle asked those students to visit, but he went straight to chat with the village chief, because he knew that in this small village, the village chief was the one who knew the most, and there were basically no situations where the village chief didn't understand.

But today the village chief disappointed Sun Youle. He looked very simple and honest, but he basically didn't know anything about Sun Youle's questions.

Time passed in the blink of an eye. After dark, they stayed overnight in the village. The mountain road was rugged, and it was an unwise choice to travel at night.

"Teacher, I think this village is very abnormal"

"Oh, what an abnormal law"

"I can't tell. Anyway, I feel very depressed, and the villagers are very resistant to us. The key point is that I feel that I am being watched."

"What, surveillance, don't scare me"

When the boy said that, the other two were so shocked that their faces turned pale.

"Really, I won't lie to you, you know, my investigation class is the first in the whole department, my senses are very keen, but I have turned around for several times and still haven't found anyone watching, and there is another point, teacher, you I don’t know if I have noticed that the people in the village seem to pay too much attention to the tree at the entrance of the village.”

"How to attach importance to it, you can talk about it"

"Burning incense, burning incense all day long, we arrived at one o'clock in the noon, but until now, the incense there has not been extinguished. Don't you think there is a problem in such a poor village?"

"This is not necessarily the case. The poorer the place, the more superstitious it is, isn't it normal?"

"No, teacher, this is different. I don't know if you have discovered it. Strange things often happened in Dongqiao Village in the past few years, which caused them heavy losses and even casualties. However, since they took the village at the entrance of the village Isn't it strange that the big banyan tree has never happened since it became a sacred tree?"

"Oh, there is such a thing?"

"It's true"

"I see, okay, you sleep, remember, don't sleep so dead, you know?"

Sun Youle reminded that the news he got at the scene was very interesting. He decided to visit the big banyan tree at night to see if there were any ghosts.

In the middle of the night, Sun Youle sneaked out of the room and walked towards the entrance of the village. The village was not far from the entrance of the village. Soon, he saw the flickering fire in the dark night, the light of those incense candles.

Sun Youle couldn't help sighing, Dongqiao Village has only fifty or sixty households, very poor, and there are only a dozen or so small western-style houses that can be seen everywhere in other rural areas, but they are extremely willing to pray for gods and Buddhas. Looking at the burning incense under the big banyan tree day and night, you can know how much money it has accumulated over the years.

When he came under the big banyan tree, Sun Youle raised his head to observe the whole trunk. It was a big banyan tree, and it took two or three people to embrace it.

After walking around, Sun Youle didn't find anything, but he didn't give up immediately, but walked to the side of the tree trunk and tapped it lightly. He analyzed from the sound that it was empty.

"There seems to be something"

With a flashlight, Sun Youle looked up and saw something in the branch. Without thinking about it, he bit the flashlight in his mouth, rubbed his hands, and prepared to climb up the tree.

Sun Youle's skills were still good, and he quickly climbed to a branch, and he was able to reach out to take what he saw from the branch.

"what"

However, the moment he stretched out his hand, suddenly, a face appeared in front of Sun Youle, right in front of him, this sudden appearance of a face made Sun Youle scream in fright.

Not only that, he even touched something soft when he stretched out his hand. When Sun Youle raised his head, he suddenly saw that he was holding a hand that was half rotten.

"Ah, ah, ah"

Sun Youle yelled, but he had forgotten that he was on the tree at this time, so panicked, he fell from the tree with a plop and lay on the ground.

He was about to get up from the ground, but suddenly found that there were a pair of feet in front of him. He slowly raised his head, and the expression on his face slowly became frightened.
