Chapter 15 Black Water Floating Ancient Coins
It was evening in a blink of an eye, and Tian Zhigang enthusiastically invited Uncle Li and the deaf mother-in-law to come over for dinner.
"Boss, let's go, I've boiled the wine!"
Normally, the two old men would not go.
But now I'm worried about the dirt in the well, so I have to go if I don't want to.
During the meal, Comrade Xiao Zhao, who was in charge of digging the well, toasted Uncle Li.
"I heard that you are always a veteran of the Red Army. I would like to toast you!"
Uncle Li didn't hesitate, picked up the wine cup and drank it all in one gulp.
"Thank you for your hard work, Comrade Zhao!"
"You've been busy for a long time this morning. Did you encounter any difficulties?"
"I'm reporting to you, old comrade, that there are no difficulties at all. It's just that the ground in the well is too hard."
"It took me a long time to dig but it was only one meter deep!"
Hearing this, the two elders who were eating were shocked:
You can't be so evil. Have you really dug up an iron coffin?
Because I had something on my mind, the meal was tasteless.
After finally surviving until everyone else had had their fill of wine and food, the deaf mother-in-law immediately pulled Uncle Li outside.
Everyone went out to see each other off, all the way to the dry well at the door.
The deaf mother-in-law pretended to be curious about the machine that dug the well, but she was actually inspecting the dug soil.
Looking at the gray underfoot under the moonlight, the deaf mother-in-law had a bad premonition.
When no one was paying attention, I picked up some dug-out soil and smelled it, and I became even more sure:
Damn it, it’s really Sanhe soil!
When the two elders returned home, Uncle Li asked:
"Deaf woman, what is Sanhetu?"
The deaf mother-in-law sighed:
"Sanhe soil is lime, clay, sand, and black dog blood mixed together."
"It is used to prevent corpses from being raised, or to suppress particularly evil things."
Uncle Li asked again:
"What about the iron coffin? Why have I never heard of it?"
Another sigh:
"The iron coffin is even more evil!"
"Ever since our ancestors established the rules, who have you ever seen buried in an iron coffin?"
"Iron is a dead thing and cannot communicate with yin and yang. The soul cannot come out if it is inside."
"Burying someone in an iron coffin is like putting someone in an iron pot to stew!"
"Coupled with the Sanhe soil outside, this is not an iron pot, but an oil pot!"
"Even if there are good people buried inside, after so many years, they have turned into evil spirits!"
"Still the most vicious one!"
After listening to this, Uncle Li realized that the matter was serious.
"No, we can't let them dig anymore no matter what!"
"I'll go find them tomorrow!"
Deaf mother-in-law rarely teases:
"Aren't you afraid of what others say about you?"
Uncle Li replied with a dull face:
"Nothing is more important than the lives of ordinary people!"
This night is destined to be extraordinary:
First, the weather suddenly changed and the north wind blew loudly.
Followed by muffled thunder, the rumble continued without pause.
Large snowflakes fell from the sky, as big as a child's hand.
After drinking a lot of wine, Xiao Zhao, who had fallen asleep, suddenly got up.
I didn't even put on my cotton-padded clothes, so I walked outside.
The eyes are empty.
Tian Zhigang, who slept with him, didn't even notice.
Xiao Zhao walked to the door, skillfully started the machine and started digging a well.
The rumble of thunder just covered up the roar of the machine.
Half an hour later, weird laughter suddenly came from underground.
Black water soon followed.
The black water seemed to be boiling, gurgling and churning.
On the surface of the water, three ancient coins thrown by the deaf mother-in-law floated...
Uncle Li and his deaf mother-in-law had something to worry about, so they got up very early.
It snowed all night, with a thickness of more than one meter.
The doors of every house are tightly blocked.
Before the snow was cleared, a scream broke the tranquility of the morning:
"Come quickly, someone is dead!"
The sound came from the direction of Tian Laosi's house.
No, something happened!
Uncle Li quickly put on his cotton coat and ran outside.
The thick snow made every step difficult.
When the two elders arrived, many villagers had already surrounded them.
"Quickly, give way!"
"Uncle Li and the deaf woman are here, let them see what is going on!"
"Too evil!"
I saw Xiao Zhao, the man sent by the town to dig the well, dead in the snow.
The lower body was naked, not even a hair on.
There was a weird look of satisfaction on his face.
All the young ladies and young daughters-in-law looked at this and their faces turned red with embarrassment.
Uncle Li looked solemn:
"Whoever discovered it first, tell me what happened!"
The fourth aunt of the Tian family looked pale and had to be supported by Mei Lan to stand upright.
He was stumbling when he spoke, obviously frightened:
"Li, Li, Uncle Li, I don't know what's going on."
"I opened the door to clear the snow in the morning, and Xiao Zhao is already like this!"
The deaf mother-in-law walked to the well and looked at the remaining black water below, as if she understood something.
He said in a voice that only he and Uncle Li could hear:
"Hey, the dirty stuff came out!"
The death of a person is a big deal, especially if it is a comrade from the town.
Tian Zhigang was so frightened that he grabbed Uncle Li's sleeve and asked:
"Uncle, how can we do this?!"
Uncle Li mustered up his energy and said:
"You can't hide things."
"First call the police, and then report it to the town leaders."
"Be careful here, don't touch anything!"
Tian Zhigang nodded repeatedly:
"Okay, I'll go right away!"
"It's all up to you!"
