forbidden area

Chapter 123 People and ghosts live together, and people die without leaving the village
The middle-aged man didn't seem to see my puzzled expression, so he smiled to himself and said, "It means that you are lucky to meet me, and no one in this area dares to go to Longhu except me, Chen San. village."

"Huh?" I froze for a moment and said.

"I heard that that place is haunted by ghosts." That Chen San leaned his head over, and said in a low voice.

I did know in my heart that No Man's Village was haunted by ghosts, but I didn't quite know the specific situation. Hearing what Chen San said, it seemed that I really knew something, so I said, "Oh? And this matter, you and I Say it."

Chen San smiled, and said, "Look, buddy, you probably don't have any good intentions when you go to Longhu Village. I have picked up three groups of people to go in these days. These groups of people are well equipped. Dou, tell me, brother, is there anything good in it? Are there tombs of princes and ministers?"

I froze for a moment, thinking that Chen San's imagination was really rich, and said, "How can there be any tombs? Enclosed, although the dragon likes water, the water is not as wide as the sea, so in terms of geomantic omen, it is the dragon's trapped shoal, which is an extremely evil geomantic omen. It is impossible for any prince or minister to build a cemetery in such a broken geomantic omen of."

Of course, it is impossible for me to understand Feng Shui. The reason why I say this is because Yi Chao told me before, whether you understand it or not, just talk about it first. If the other party asks a question that I cannot explain, then come It is enough to say that the secret must not be leaked.

Sure enough, Chen San was confused by my feng shui theory, blinked his eyes and said, "The previous batch of people were all vicious, and I dare not ask. Look at you, brother, you have a kind face, and you can see through the bottom of my brother. What are you people doing here?"

"The secret must not be leaked." I blinked my eyes at Chen San very mysteriously, and said.

Chen San was taken aback by what I said, and said, "Forget it, it doesn't matter what you do, as long as you give me the money, I'll take you across, and that's it!"

"That's right!" I smiled and agreed with Chen San's point of view.

Now that Chen San has been fooled, and after giving him the impression that I am an outsider, it is very easy to figure out something, so I said, "Actually, this time I came to Longhu Village. There is a mission, but you told me before, haunted, what is the situation? Before I came, no one told me about haunted. "

Chen San chuckled, "This matter is actually not a big secret among us, so how about it, in order to save your time buddy, let's talk about this Longhu Village after we get on the boat."

I knew it was Chen San, who was afraid that I would stop looking for him after I found out, and wanted to use this to trap me. I was going there, so I nodded and agreed, "Well, this time, I will I will give you 1000 yuan, and you will give me your mobile phone number, and you will come to pick me up when I come back later."

Chen San's expression was very strange. He looked at me and said, "Don't you know that there is no signal in Longhu Village? Not to mention the mobile phone, even the walkie-talkie can't receive the signal. In the past two years, some villagers here were curious. I went up and said I saw a ghost, and when I came back, I lost my mind. The government also sent a team of people to investigate, and they ran back within a day after entering. Most of the people in the team were missing. After returning, they checked their walkie-talkies. Said there was no signal inside."

I froze for a moment, there is no signal in Longhu Village?At last he smiled and said, "Well then, at this time two days later, come and find me at the place where you sent me up, and pick me up."

Chen San's expression was a bit strange, "Yes, yes... But if there is fog there, I won't pick you up. I will go when there is no fog."

"Fog? What is this?" As we talked, we had already reached the shore. Chen San pulled a small wooden boat from one side, and while playing with the small wooden boat, he said, "Fog is the river God is about to come out, and at this time, people in our town are not allowed to go into the water."

"River God?" For some reason, the face of the mountain god flashed in my mind. Could it be a monster like the mountain god, but this river god is a kind of water monster or something.

As soon as Chen San mentioned the God of the River, he became a little jealous, shut up and said nothing, and after getting on the boat, he waved to me, and I got on the boat too. At this time, I saw the old man who ran away when he saw me before.

The old man was standing on the shore, looking at me who was already on the boat with a deadly look. I can't forget that look until now, it's creepy.

I shivered and asked Chen San, "Why does the old man look so strange to me?"

"Don't pay attention to him, it's just that I feel uncomfortable because I took your money." Chen San paddled the boat on the shore, rowed the boat out, and said.

But I feel that the expression that the old man looks at me is definitely not as simple as being upset, this kind of look is too strange.

After the boat was rowed out, Chen San also said, "Didn't you ask me what is strange about Longhu Village?"

Chen San's words also turned me back from the old man's strange thoughts, and asked quickly, "What's so strange?"

Chen San smiled, and said, "Actually, there was nothing wrong with this Longhu Village in the early days. I used to play there when I was young, but something has been wrong since then."

"Huh?" I found a comfortable position and sat down. Seeing Huang Daxian's restless and afraid of water, I felt much more at ease.

"Humans and ghosts live together in Longhu Village, and people can't get out of the village if they die!" When he said this, Chen San's expression was also a little frightened, "It was like this when I went in to play when I was a child. Instead of burial, they put the body directly into the coffin, and then buried it directly in an open space near the house, and the people there were buried wearing masks after death."

What Chen San said also made me feel a little strange, because my school usually refers to ghosts and souls as dirty things and evil things. When encountering coffins, paper money, and shrouds, we should avoid them far away, and even spit a few times. I'm afraid of getting bad luck.

People's residential communities and graves are often separated by boundaries, such as a river, or cemeteries are set on uninhabited hills and woods. No one will set up graves in their own yards or villages.

But this Longhu Village is different from us. It's a bit strange that people live together with ghosts and people, so people can't die without villagers. So I asked, "Why do they do this? It’s a little strange to be buried wearing a mask. After all, Chinese people pay attention to clear ears and eyesight after death, and don’t cover foreign objects. Why does Longhu Village bury the corpse wearing a mask?”

"I don't know either. I heard that it is a rule passed down from our ancestors." When Chen San said this, his expression was a little frightened, and he said, "According to the fortune teller in the town, there is actually a reason why Longhu Village is haunted. Because there are bones in their ditches, and there are ghosts in the bend. As for the masks, it should be that people and ghosts live in the same village. In order to suppress the ghosts, there is a method of wearing masks for dead bodies. I saw it once when I was young. The mask is very strange, it doesn't seem to be used to suppress ghosts at all, but rather..."

"Like what?" I said quickly.

"It seems to be promoting the growth of ghosts. You haven't seen that mask before. I'll draw it for you. It's so strange!" Chen San put down the oar and tapped it in the water with his finger , Draw on the board.

It is an extremely grotesque face, like a fox, with slender and terrifying eyes, a strange smile on the face, and two long fangs protruding from the corners of the mouth. It is very simple, but also very strange. Makes the back feel cold.

"There is one more thing, that is, the layout of Longhu Village is very strange. According to the fortune teller, it is a layout of three temples and impoverished valleys, and it is easy to breed ghosts and ghosts. It's next to the island." Chen San said confidently.

At this time, none of us noticed that a layer of mist began to fill the originally empty lake.
