Take your sister to catch a ghost

Chapter 140 The Cellar
I sat until the morning before I breathed a sigh of relief.

After breakfast, I bid farewell to the old man, but the old man tried his best to persuade him to stay. Anyway, I wanted to stay one more day, so I agreed to the old man. First, I was afraid that the thing would come to the old man at night, and second, I hadn’t finished my work.

The old man finished his breakfast, sat down for a while, and then went down to the ground, as if he was not worried about whether I would steal from his house at all. When he left, he also told me not to go to the Taoist temple.

I Nuonuo promised that as soon as the old man left, I would go directly to that Taoist temple.

The state of mind is completely different during the day and at night, at least not so scared, and I can see more clearly.

After seeing the Sanqing statue, I still burned incense and worshiped, and then walked into the inner courtyard with some incense.

I didn’t see the detailed layout of the courtyard at night, but now I can see it clearly. In the middle of the courtyard, there is a black and white stone-paved Tai Chi figure, which has been buried by weeds. There is also a wall surrounding the inner courtyard. I didn't watch it yesterday!

I found the cat that died yesterday on the ground, and it had already rotted after only one day. Mosquitoes were buzzing and flying around. If it rotted so quickly, it must have been killed by something unclean.

I pinched my nose and went to the room where I saw the three corpses yesterday, and I was shocked when I went in and saw that there was only one of the three corpses left, which was the one I pinned.

How could this be so, could it be the two of them too?
I searched elsewhere in the house, but did not find these two corpses. I only saw the sandalwood I put next to them on the ground yesterday. All of them were not completely burned, and they were only half burned before they were extinguished.

I picked up these few sticks of incense, and went to the room where the most dead people were found yesterday.

The room is full of dust, not as clean as I saw yesterday, cobwebs are everywhere, and the utensils in the room are crumbling.

Is it really an illusion?I think it should be like this, otherwise, how could it be like this every other day.

I went to every corner to collect the sandalwood, squatted under the altar, and knocked on the ground after collecting it. It was indeed empty, and it was a deep hole.

I struggled to move the altar away, and then went to the yard to find a relatively strong wooden stick to pry the stone slab.

After the stone slab was pried open, a dark hole appeared in front of my eyes. I took a photo with a flashlight, but the flashlight was out of power, and the light penetration was not strong, so I didn't take the photo carefully.

The person that Daoist Nian'an asked me to dig must be inside. I lit a few pieces of yellow mounting paper on it and threw it down, and it went out before it fell to the bottom.

After thinking about it, I took out a red rope from my body, tied a copper coin to the promotion end, and then slowly lowered it down to a depth of about seven meters.After digging to the bottom, I even pulled it up to have a look, and the copper coins didn't change much.

This burrow should be used to store vegetables, and there is such a cellar in most rural homes.

When I came in, I saw a ladder standing on the side of the lobby outside. I turned around and carried the ladder in, and then lowered it down slowly. The ladder seemed to be prepared for this cave, and it was just so long. .

After putting down the ladder, I didn't go down hastily. Instead, I inserted a few sticks of incense sticks at the entrance of the cave, and waited until the incense burnt out before I bit down on the flashlight and went down slowly.

The shape of the sandalwood is quite normal, coupled with the normal shape of the copper coin just now, this gave me the courage to come down, otherwise, after what happened yesterday, I would not dare to come down if I was given ten courages before I was sure.

Every time I go down a section of the ladder, I will stick a stick of incense on the edge of the cave wall, three sticks of incense per stick, not only offering sacrifices to humans, but also offering sacrifices to ghosts.

The opening of the hole is not very big, only about one meter in diameter, and it gets wider and wider as you go down, and it is almost two meters in diameter when you reach the middle.

When I got to the last step of the ladder, the sandalwood in my hand was almost inserted. I inserted the rest in the cracked part of the ladder, and then took a flashlight to illuminate the surrounding area.

Only when I stood in the middle of the cellar did I know the real structure of the cellar. It is in a convex shape, and the bottom is not as wide as it looks to me. In fact, it has expanded a bit.

I bent down and took a picture inside the expansion.

When I saw the scene inside, I immediately gasped. The inside was full of reptiles, dense and dense, and it was a little scary when wriggling. Some centipedes even had chopsticks.

I didn't dare to move, because apart from these reptiles, there were several corpses inside. I counted, and there were four corpses in total. These corpses had become habitats for reptiles.

The clothes of these people were not completely corroded, and part of them remained. I looked at their hats, and one of them had a lotus crown. Such hats are generally only worn by Taoist priests with relatively high status, and this kind of hat It is usually worn when practicing.

Daoist Nian'an asked me to dig up the corpses below and bury them properly. Could it be these four?
I was a little uncertain, so I took out my mobile phone and called Xiaoxi, first asked a few casual questions, and then asked her to give the mobile phone to Daoist Nian'an, and he told me to just move the person wearing the lotus crown inside.

How did he know there was a man here wearing a lotus crown?
Before I asked, he added, "It's not very clean down here, so be careful."

As soon as he finished speaking, I felt something was wrong. The ladder beside me was slowly rising. When I looked up, there was a human-shaped thing pulling my ladder at the entrance of the cave. Food for these reptiles is unacceptable.

With a sudden jump, I grabbed the ladder's rail, and then yanked down, tearing off both the person and the ladder.

The man was smashed to pieces as soon as he fell to the ground. It turned out to be a corpse.

His bones were splashed all over, and many of them hit the pile of reptiles directly. The reptiles were so startled that they all surged up. When I saw it, I quickly bit my flashlight and climbed up.

These reptiles can survive in such an environment for so long, their vitality must be extremely strong, and it is certainly not easy to remove them casually.

I was relieved when I climbed to the top. After I got up, I immediately lifted the ladder up and stood aside.

It was really too dangerous just now, that thing even pulled my ladder while I was on the phone. Fortunately, Nian An said that, otherwise I really have to explain it here.

But where did that corpse come from?

I took a look inside the room, there shouldn't be any place to hide corpses inside, then I took a look outside, and suddenly understood that there is no sun today, and it probably came from there.

After looking at the opposite side, I re-covered the stone slab to prevent reptiles from coming up from inside.

After tidying up here, I went to the opposite side to look, and there was still only the corpse nailed there, and I didn't see the rest of the corpses.

The most important thing now is not to do this, but to get out the corpses in the cellar, otherwise, at night, this place will not dare to come.

Walking out of the Taoist temple, I walked towards the farmland where the old man went to the field. There were several old people next to us who were weeding, trying to get rid of all the weeds in the field before the rain came.

I went over and said a few words to the old man. Just as he was about to take a rest, the old man turned his hoe across and sat directly on the handle of the hoe, and invited me to sit there.

I hummed, went to sit next to him, and asked, "Old man, do you have any medicine for deworming at home?"

Generally, farmers should have insecticides and herbicides.

The old man shook his head, and then told me that there is another family in the village that sells some retail goods.

The old man rested for a while and continued to work. I ran to the family that the old man mentioned and bought all the medicines for weeding and pest control in his store, and then went to the old man's house to bring a bucket of water. Proceed to the Taoist temple in a mighty way.

I dare not burn it with fire, for fear of burning the body. After much deliberation, this method is the best.

It's definitely not good for people to go down and pour the potion. I thought about it, and threw the black cat that died yesterday outside. After about half an hour, I looked down here again.

Oh my god, the whole bottom is full of reptiles, densely packed, and the yellow bottom has now turned black.

It should be almost there, I poured the potion added to the copper from above.

It will definitely not be effective immediately, I estimate that it should be almost the same tomorrow.

In the free time tonight, I have to settle the matter related to sleepwalking. I will dig up the body and bury it tomorrow morning, and I will go back in the afternoon.
