Chapter 38 Second Uncle

The flesh-and-blood giant tortoise gradually petrified, and finally turned into a stone tortoise full of cracks, revealing a sense of vicissitudes.

"The stone tortoise appears, so there must be important information on the stone tablet." The second uncle walked up to the stone tortoise and picked off the water plants hanging on the tablet with his hands.

As the water plants and mud were removed bit by bit, the writing on the stele was revealed before our eyes.

"Born with a resentful baby, it is unlucky to be buried alive, to burn the evil body, and the curse will be cured by itself." I read the words on the tablet softly.

"I knew that all the weird things that happened here are inseparable from that old thing, and they will still harm people after their souls are scattered." Fatty Wang wailed.

"That old thing, where did he bury himself alive?" I muttered to myself.At the beginning, the old monk only mentioned that Yin Changsheng buried himself alive, but he didn't say where he was.

"Let's get out of here first. Only by burning the evil body of the other party buried alive will the chill disappear." The second uncle took out the jade card, his eyes thoughtful.

After a lot of tossing, I finally found the source of the curse, but it was still full of fog.

"Then Yin Changsheng, will he bury himself where the secret map of the jade tablet is?" I stared at the jade tablet in the second uncle's hand.

"It's very possible. After all, it's a dragon vein. It's a pity that I don't know the exact location." The second uncle said in a regretful tone.

As soon as he reached the edge of the village, a villager ran over in a panic, and shouted before he got close, "Old Yu, it's bad, the second uncle is going to bury himself alive."

My heart skipped a beat. I was still talking about the living burial just now, but I didn't expect something to happen here.

"Hurry up, take me there, what's going on?" Old Yutou is the old villager who led us, he ran over and grabbed the arm of the villager who reported the news, his expression tense.

"I...we don't know, Second Uncle has already dug all the holes." The villager who reported the message panted heavily, dragged Old Yu by the head and ran away.

"Come on, let's go over and have a look." The second uncle greeted and followed closely behind the two villagers.

"Second Uncle?" I still have an impression of this name in my heart. I remember that when Old Yu found me, he said that the Second Uncle asked him to come.

A group of us ran to the east of the village, out of breath, and climbed up a small mound, where a circle of villagers was already surrounded.

"Let go of me. Only by burying yourself alive can I save you." An old but angry voice shouted.

We pushed away the crowd, and saw a strange scene, a grey-haired, capable old man was struggling hard, and two young boys stood beside him, holding the old man's arms tightly.

A shovel was thrown at the old man's feet, and a big hole had already been dug in front of him, and he was pulling desperately, trying to jump into the hole.

"Second Uncle, what are you doing here?" Old Yu asked out of breath, his forehead covered in sweat.

"Alas!" The second uncle sighed, squatting on the ground weakly, with a dejected expression.

"Old man, we have found the source of the curse, why are you bothering?" I walked over, squatted in front of the second uncle, and handed him a cigarette.

"It's too late, there has been a change at the mass grave." The second uncle lit a cigarette with a bitter face, and took two puffs.

"Then there's no need to bury yourself alive?" I looked puzzled.

"I was born on a sunny day in a sunny year. I have never been married in my life. I have the most yang energy in my body. Burying myself alive with a secret technique can keep the village safe for a while." The second uncle said calmly, exhaling a smoke ring.

"Then do you know that the source of the curse in the village is caused by Yin Changsheng burying himself?" The second uncle came over with a serious expression.

"I have already guessed it, and I also know that there are good and evil in living burials. I am willing to bury myself to protect the safety of this party." The second uncle said.

"Second Uncle..." Old Yu looked excited.

"That's it." The second uncle said decisively, "I heard that before death, people can cross the long river of time and see through the past and the future. You also want to know where the Yin Changsheng is buried alive?"

"Master, we have found some clues." I want to stop this tragedy.

"Don't try to persuade me any more. It's worth it to use my old life to buy a few more days for the people in the village." The second uncle pushed away the villagers around him.

"I have a way, which can fulfill the old man's wish and preserve your old life." The second uncle said slowly.

"Master, please help us." Old Yu walked over and grabbed the second uncle's arm, with longing in his eyes.

"Go to the ruins of the ruined temple and look for the copper oil lamps in good condition." The second uncle looked in the direction of the ruined temple and said to the villagers around him.

A few young boys, with joy on their faces, picked up the shovel on the ground and ran quickly to the ruined temple.

"Second uncle, do you want to use the resurrection lamp to save the old man's life?" I thought of a possibility.

"That's right, lighting a resurrection lamp in the coffin can keep you alive for seven days." The second uncle nodded.

"Old man, I seldom admire fat people. I always admire you." Fatty Wang walked over and gave the second uncle a thumbs up.

"Second Uncle used to be Huzi's master back then, he drilled in the old forest every day, and experienced all kinds of storms." Old Yutou introduced with some pride.

"The past is not worth mentioning. But it is also the experience of the year, which taught me some messy little things." The second uncle smiled modestly.

"Before you get old, let's drink a bowl and sleep peacefully. After we settle the matter, we will invite you out." I felt the loyalty of my second uncle and said loudly.

"Okay, drink a bowl of old wine and have a good sleep." The second uncle laughed proudly.

Not long after, those young men ran back panting, with a copper oil lamp wrapped in red silk cloth in their hands.

"Old Yu, borrow your coffin for retirement." The second uncle said loudly.

"Okay!" Old Yu nodded with tears in his eyes, and led a few young villagers to the village.

"Alas..." Li Xiaolei sighed softly, looking into the distance with some melancholy eyes, not knowing what she was thinking.

Old Yu came back soon. When he went, there were a few people, but when he came back, he was followed by a large group of villagers.

The villagers walking behind, there are men, women and children, some are sickly being supported by others, and some have filial piety on their arms. It is estimated that someone has just died in the family, and the villagers all look excited.

Several young lads carried a pitch-black coffin, placed it lightly in the dug pit, and stood aside respectfully.

"Second Uncle..." Old Yu held a jar of old wine in his hand, sobbing so hard that he couldn't make a sound.

"Pour the wine!" The second uncle held a bowl in his hand with a proud expression on his face.

I took the bowl from the villagers beside me, stood beside my second uncle, and shouted loudly, "Second uncle, let's go together."

"Second Uncle, Fatty will also accompany you to have a long bowl." Fatty Wang stretched out his hand to hold the bowl, his expression excited.

"Old man, I convince you." Li Xiaolei, with a rare solemn expression, picked up a bowl and walked over here.

The second uncle lit the copper oil lamp and put it in the corner of the coffin. When he came here, he said in a deep voice, "You can rest assured to sleep. Look at your face, you will live a long life, and you will have a long life in the future."

"Let's go!" The second uncle picked up a bowl of old wine, held his neck high, and gulped it down.

"Respect to you!" I raised my neck and poured a bowl of old wine into my stomach, feeling a fire in my throat.

"Cough, cough, cough!" The fat man gulped down so hard that he choked.

Li Xiaolei, this bitch, is as proud as a man, without taking a breath, she drank a bowl of old wine to the bottom.

"Second Uncle, I respect you!" The surrounding villagers looked excited and filled their stomachs with wine.

"Happy! I'm done drinking, and I'm going to bed." The second uncle threw the bowl aside, strode into the coffin, and lay down straight.

The surrounding atmosphere was somewhat silent. Everyone had attended the funeral of the dead, but this was the first time for a living person.

"Seal the coffin, what's the ink stain?" Second Uncle shouted with some dissatisfaction.

"Seal the coffin ̄" Old Yu's head stretched out, tears pouring down his face.

Watching the dark coffin boards slowly close, I felt very uncomfortable. The person lying inside was a living person.

Everyone stood there with their heads bowed, without saying a word. A few young guys, with red eyes, covered the coffin with soil with one shovel after another.

Amidst the rustling sound of shoveling, a brand new grave appeared on a small mound, surrounded by mountains and rivers, but it was a bit lonely.

I lit three cigarettes, silently inserted them in front of the grave, and bowed, "Second Uncle, I will come back and wake you up after we finish our business."

"I saw..." a faint voice came from the grave.

"It was a valley surrounded by mountains. The white tiger embraced its den, and the green dragon fetched water. He buried himself alive where the dragon's veins were."

"Thank you, Second Uncle, for your advice!" I shouted loudly.

A few birds flew in the distance, the dark clouds in the sky receded, the sun shone on the earth, and the haze that shrouded the village suddenly dissipated.

"I am destined to live forever..." A miserable howl came from afar.

There was silence all around, and it was the sound of chi, it seemed to be injured, but the second uncle said that that thing is immortal, and it needs to burn the evil body before it disappears.

"The old man won us precious time regardless of his own safety." The second uncle looked at the new grave with emotion.

"Yumshuwan, ghost hand Zhang." I whispered to myself, maybe this person knows the location of the dragon's vein.

"Elm Bay? I've been to that place before, but now it's renamed Longwa Village." Fatty Wang interjected suddenly.

"That's great, we'll rush there right away." I was delighted.

Before leaving, I went to the hospital and visited Zhen Qingyi. She looked a little pale, she was still in a coma, and she was so haggard that it made my heart ache.

I checked her wrist, and the thin black line has extended again. We must race against time, and race against death.

"Let's go, when we find the evil body and solve the problem, she will be fine." The second uncle stood by the window, smoking a cigarette, and whispered.

"Tsing Yi, rest well, I'm leaving." I didn't know if the other party could hear me, so I finished speaking softly, and left the ward with my second uncle.
