Chapter 18 Yinshan Ghost Fire Urges Death
Mingyue of the Great Song Dynasty http://www./0_1/ The latest work of the great master Xiangnan Xiaoxiaosheng! But at this time, the centipede is not called down the mountain…………
Until one year during the Republic of China, a villager in a village suddenly saw a bunch of ghost fires floating out of the cemetery and chased him straight towards him.
The villagers were shocked and screamed and ran to the center of the mass grave in a panic. Unexpectedly, after running for a while, they turned around and looked at it. They found that the ghost fire tracking him all the way behind them suddenly disappeared without a trace.
The villagers thought they could breathe a sigh of relief.
But before I could even kick the air, I suddenly noticed rustling sounds coming from the surrounding weeds.
Are there snakes? Rural people are not afraid of snakes. If there are snakes, they can be beaten to death and taken back for food.
But after listening carefully for a while, the hairs all over his body suddenly stood up.
Because the rustling sound came from all sides from the side. In other words, this was not a snake at all, but a group of snakes!!!
In places like Xiangxi, where the ground is full of barriers, it is not a big deal to have snakes. Moreover, the local Miao people are good at driving snakes. It is not a strange thing for Xiangxi people to grow up under the influence of this culture.
But the location at this time was a mass grave, and it was in the evening! The strange and quiet atmosphere added a little extra fear to this time.
Driven by curiosity, the villagers slowly walked to the edge of a weed nearest to him in the afterglow of the sunset, and trembled with fear and stretched out their rough and thick palms to push away the bush of weeds.
Ah... After pushing it apart, the situation in front of me immediately scared the villagers and staggered and fell to the ground.
Behind the weeds, there were not groups of snakes, but a group of fiery red centipedes!
The big ones are as big as a thumb, and the small ones are as small as iron wire. At this time, the grass is swimming happily from the inside.
The grass where the centipedes were hiding was suddenly pushed away, and the afterglow of the setting sun instantly sprinkled in. It may be stimulated by the sun, or it may be that they discovered the invasion of foreign objects. In short, all the centipedes began to rush out like a swarm.
At the same time, the centipedes in other grasses around them also crawled out from all directions like a flood like a gate opening, surrounding the villagers who fell to the ground.
Seeing this, the villagers who fell to the ground quickly stood up and ran to the village with centipedes all over the ground. The creaking sound of the centipedes being trampled on by their limbs was like a symphony of death. In this strange and quiet night, it seemed particularly beautiful.
The villagers ran and shouted, "There are so many centipedes, so many centipedes...
After running for a while, he turned around timidly again and saw that the mass grave was already dark, with centipedes circling around the grave.
He didn't have the leisure to explore why this situation happened, but he just fled home with his legs weak.
After returning home, he quickly closed the door tightly, and then he collapsed in the room and shook his whole body.
Seeing his panic and embarrassed look, my wife asked him what had happened. He just kept saying "Centipede, so many centipedes......
Seeing that he kept talking about centipedes, his whole body was covered with dust and mud, and his trousers were torn to several places, the villagers asked him with concern, "Have you encountered a centipede? Have you ever had any injuries? Then he went to lift the villagers' thorny pants to check his body.
Unexpectedly, when I lifted my pants, I saw three wounds on my left calf. The swollen boss was obviously bitten by something.
Fortunately, the villager's wife is a brave person. Although she is just an ordinary village woman and has never studied, she is very sensible and has his own opinions.
After seeing his man being bitten, he decisively took out the seedling knife, slowly cut the wound, squeezed out a large amount of poisonous blood, and then applied snake medicine to remove the poison.
After everything was done, the villagers were still shouting in a speechless manner, "There are so many centipedes, so many centipedes, so scary...
Seeing that this was not a solution, the village woman had to hurry to go to the village to ask elder Zhuyou, village chief and others to come to help to see what was going on.
Soon, the village chief and others rushed over and checked his wounds, and concluded that they must have been bitten by a centipede.
Elder Zhu You saw that he was not clear-headed, and thought he was extremely frightened, so he hurt his soul. At this time, he probably couldn't find out why.
So he recited a magic spell for him and burned Zhang Fushui for him to drink. After drinking, the villagers were indeed much more awake. I think the magic spell had a certain effect.
Elder Zhuyou saw that he had been sober and asked him urgently what he had met.
The villagers were silent for a while, and after a while, they said that he was at the mass grave. He saw a dark and full of centipedes, and he was bitten a few times. Fortunately, he ran fast and escaped.
The village chief and others were shocked when they heard this and hurriedly took the bolder villagers to the mass grave to inspect. Unfortunately, the centipede had retreated like a tide at this time and disappeared without a trace.
It came gently, just as it walked gently, it gently bit the villagers without taking away a cloud.
The village chief naturally lost his sight and saw no trace at all.
However, some careful villagers found some centipedes' limbs and corpses next to the chaotic grass and graves, and they thought it was the result of their biting each other.
The bitten villager finally saved his life because his wife gave him blood and treatment in time. However, because he was bitten by three centipedes and did not prescribe the right medicine, the injured leg was still not saved and he became a cripple since then.
Since then, every time he went out to meet passers-by, he couldn't help but say, "In that place, the fiery red centipede has gone down the mountain, so many of them."
Everyone has long been accustomed to what he said. Over time, the mass grave was named "Centipede Goes Down the Mountain."
However, as time goes by, several sensational strange things happen to the centipede down the mountain.
Later, in order to prevent these strange things, the villages in all corners invited Zhu Youshi, the most powerful Zhu Youshi, to read Feng Shui. Finally, they moved the tomb to the plain and planted peach trees.
According to Master Zhu You, there is a reason to plant peach trees, because peach trees, also known as dragon trees, are a kind of yang tree, which can help suppress ghosts and exorcise evil spirits.
As expected, since then, the strange things about centipede going down the mountain gradually became less and less until people began to forget that there was once a grave.
