Chapter 32: Black Python River
When I turned around and looked back, Shang Yang had already thrown out the flying knife. With a whoosh, the flying knife almost scratched my cheek.
With a "meow" sound, a big fat black cat was shot by a flying knife. The black cat crawled on the ground motionless, apparently dead.
At this time, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, "It turns out to be a cat!" After opening the door, we entered the house. The whole house was quite simple. Apart from a large earthen bed, the only thing left was the large wooden table in front of us.
After the four of us discussed it, I, Wang Keai, and Shang Yang slept on the earthen kang. Since Dunzi was big, we let him sleep on the big wooden table. In this way, we made do together until dawn.
The mountain air in the early morning is particularly refreshing. The rolling hills on both sides of the small village, coupled with the blue sky, make people feel happy. Shang Yang pointed to the mountains opposite and said to Wang Keai, "Sister! You see, this mountain is so domineering and powerful."
Swallowing the wind of the world, the nest looks like a dragon swallowing the sky, plus the mountain behind us looks like two dragons protecting the pearl, it is a treasure place."
Wang Keai blinked in confusion and looked at Dashan and said, "I can see these two dragons, but you said the two dragons protect the beads. Where did the orbs come from? I can't tell."
Shang Yang coughed and pretended to be serious and said, "There must be beads in the Shuanglong Protective Pearl. Sister, can you observe carefully?"
Dunzi held his tongue in dissatisfaction and said, "What about the Double Dragon Protector Pearl? I think it's just a trick, pretending to be big."
In fact, I had already noticed the feng shui of this place, so I quickly interrupted Dunzi and said, "What En Shangyang said is true. There are two big mountain nests on the left and right of this place. You can see the two dragons. The place where we are is just surrounded by these two dragons. This place is
The pearl protected by the two dragons, but this place of the divine pearl must have a pearl center here. I haven’t found out where it is yet.”
Shang Yang nodded at me and seemed to agree with what I said. We walked towards the old lady's house. It was the old lady who called us to get up early in the morning, otherwise we would have slept until noon. After entering the old lady's house,
As soon as the food was placed on the table, the food was just a plate of steamed sweet potatoes, a few bowls of millet porridge, and a plate of shredded radish. Maybe because we were hungry, the four of us ate very deliciously, and after wolfing down everything on the table.
I cleaned up the food.
After the meal, the old lady wanted to clean up the dishes. Wang Keai diligently stopped the old lady and asked her to sit down and chat with the three of us, while he went to wash the dishes and use the chopsticks alone.
Dunzi patted his belly and looked very full. He asked the old lady, "Auntie, what did you say yesterday that things in the river should not be moved? If you move them, you will die. What happened?"
I was also very curious and said, "Madam, where is the river? What happened."
The old lady said mysteriously, "This has to start with my grandfather's generation. Remember when I was a child, when I was five or six years old, there was no rain in our place for several years in a row, and there were no crops in the ground."
After that, people starved to death almost every day. Later, even the drinking water in the wells ran out, and the famine became more serious. Later, the village chief led many people to look for water sources near our village, and they found a water source five miles away from the village.
They found a large deep pool. The water in the deep pool was as black as ink. It looked like it was not edible at all, but it could still be used for watering crops. So the village chief led people to dig a ditch from the edge of the village field toward the black water pool.
The water from the Black Water Pond was diverted to the edge of the village for everyone to water crops. However, when everyone dug three or four meters away from the Black Water Pond, a large amount of water began to seep into the Tuoran ditch. Everyone hurriedly climbed up the ditch before they could come.
A sudden surge in the black water pool washed away the unexcavated ditch, and five or six people in the ditch were swallowed up by the black water. Grandpa was the lucky one who was on the shore at that time. I heard from grandpa that the water gushed out only after a short time.
Almost all the people on the shore heard the miserable cries of many women, and the cries were quite scary. The people working were all men, and there were no women at all. They were startled by the terrible women's cries, and everyone on the shore left their work behind.
The tools ran back home. Later, when the black water reached the place where the villagers dug the ditch, it stopped flowing. It was said to be a river, but the water did not flow at all. The ditch formed by the black water meandered towards the black water pool.
Looking down from the mountain, the Blackwater Pond looks like a big python crawling beside our village. Later, people in the village called it the Black Python River. In the years after the water was opened, people in the village borrowed the name of the Black Python River.
The water irrigates the crops, and you can harvest some food throughout the year, so you won't starve to death. But later, I heard people said that the Black Python River was haunted, and you could always hear women crying by the river at night, so the river was nothing but
Almost no one went to irrigate the farmland. The second dog was the wine bottle that he picked up when irrigating the farmland. I asked him to throw it away early, but he just didn't stop. Fortunately, this kid was lucky and nothing happened. Those in the village
I don’t know how many people have died who didn’t listen to the old man’s advice.”
Hearing what the aunt said, I was full of curiosity about the Black Snake River and the Black Water Altar. Shang Yang next to me seemed to be thinking about something. After Wang Keai came back, the four of us told the aunt that we wanted to go to the village.
After walking around and looking at the mountain scenery, we carried our luggage and walked towards the Heimang River on the edge of the village. After an hour, we arrived in front of the Heimang River. The river water was really as black as ink as the aunt said, and the water surface was
It was still and looked like stagnant water. Shang Yang held up a handful of river water with his hand, smelled it with his nose and said, "This water is the most yin water. If I guess correctly, the black water pool at the source of this water must be
It’s the heart of the Double Dragon Protector Pearl. The Double Dragon Protector Pearl is a place of great auspiciousness. This yin river is supposed to be a place of all evil, so it appears here.”
I thought so too. If I want to give an explanation to this river, I think it is like this, so I said, "There is only one possibility for such a river to appear in this auspicious place, that is, the Feng Shui dragon veins here have been destroyed."
The best thing will become the worst thing if it is slightly overdone. The same is true for Feng Shui. Good Feng Shui pays attention to every mountain and tree. If there are slight changes, then the Feng Shui treasure land, no matter how good the Feng Shui is, will be ruined.
It becomes the worst feng shui."
Shang Yang nodded in agreement and said, "What Qiangzi said is true. We should go to the water source first and have a look."
The four of us walked down the river again. We didn't go far before we saw the Black Water Pool in the distance. Under the sunlight, the Black Water Pool looked sparkling. We walked faster towards the Black Water Pool.
At the edge of the black water pool, Shang Yang lifted a big stone and threw it into the pool. There was a splash of water on the water. "It looks like the water is not shallow."
I looked at the black water pool and said, "The answer to all these mysteries we want to know may be in this black water pool. I'm afraid the only thing we can do now is"
Before I could finish speaking, Dunzi rushed to catch my words and said, "Do you want to go down? Who knows how deep this guy is, I don't want to go down to you."
Shang Yang also thought about it and said, "It seems that we have to go down, or how do we know what is under the water?"
I thought over and over again that I must get down from this pool, but I am not willing to go down at the moment. Forget it, I took the risk once, thinking about it, I took off my coat, pulled out the dagger from my waist, and before Dunzi could stop me, I plopped down
