Chapter 1374: Upheaval in the Village
The next morning, Mr. He summoned the villagers to clear the Black Water Pond.
The Black Pond Water has existed for hundreds of thousands of years. Everyone felt it was very strange and gloomy. They had wanted to clean it up for a long time, but they failed every time. They had also found monks and Taoists to do it on the spot, but before half of the cleaning was cleared, strange things would happen one after another. There was even a monk who vomited blood and died on the spot.
This time, Mr. He proposed to clean the black pond again. The villagers watched each other for a while, but none of them agreed.
Many people advised: "The pool has always been by the village, and nothing has happened, so don't mess around..."
"That's right, let's stay away from it in the future. What if there is something really living inside and angers it, what can our villagers do?"
"Brother He, is Xiaoju's illness bad? Let's not touch that bad head. Last time, Master Hongyuan also said that he must clean the black pond, but what happened later?" After saying that, the man glanced at me sideways, swallowed the remaining half of the words.
I could see that these people didn't want to remove the Black Water Pond, but were afraid that there would be some ghosts and monsters in the pond, which would hurt everyone. In addition, they were also not very relieved about me, a young man who was just a newcomer.
At this moment, a riot suddenly came from outside the door, and then a group of peasant sisters broke into the door.
"You should kill the evil spirit!"
"I will kill you, the plague god!"
These sisters-in-law each held short broom sticks, and when they came into the house without saying anything, they smashed them directly at me.
When Dad He and He An saw him, they opened their mouths wide and quickly stopped him.
He An shouted loudly: "Auntie, sister-in-law, what's going on?"
"Bah! What's going on?" A very sturdy sister-in-law spat hard and said, "Your Juzi is a human, but our children are not human. In order to treat Xiao Ju, you can invite such a murderous guy against your conscience and treat the whole village as a medicine guide. Thank you, your He family, can do it!"
Dad He was also stunned and asked quickly: "Big girl, what's going on?"
A slightly calmer woman next to her explained: "Just just now, all the children in the village fell ill, their bodies were red and hot, and a few small snakes crawled out of their mouths, which were exactly the same as Mei Zi's."
When she said this, the people in the room immediately exploded, and they all turned their heads and stared at me, with an extremely unkind look.
"What else can I say!" The extremely thick woman was fucking the rolling pin in her hand and pointed at me from a distance, "Xiao Ju is so sick that she can't do it anymore. She put it in the coffin. Why did He An bring you back and Xiao Ju get better? Then the whole village's children fell ill. Who was the one who was the one who was not you? I will kill you, the evil spirit today." As she said that, she rushed towards her.
"Stay!" I took out the talisman and threw it out. The sister-in-law stood there motionless.
Before everyone could recover, I stood up and said, "It seems that the ghosts in the black pond have already attacked. We can't wait any longer. We must clear the pond immediately."
My move to deter people out of thin air scared the villagers. No one dared to act rashly anymore, but no one believed me.
The older village chief glanced at me and said, "Youngsheng, it's true that this pool in our village has always been so weird, but nothing big happened. Why did the whole village children get sick since you came?"
Although the others didn't say anything, they all stared at me with their eyes. Without asking, they also had the same question.
"The Black Water Pond is an extremely yin place. After a long period of accumulation, ghosts will surely breed. I just happened to catch up. Don't say anything else, just ask you if you want to save your child!" I shouted.
When everyone heard the word "child" and immediately lost their temper.
They could also see that if I really didn't want to turn around and leave, they might not be able to stop me. Now all the children in the village are suffering from strange diseases. Even if they were sent to the hospital, they would be the same as Xiaoju. There seemed to be no other way except listening to me.
"Then what do you think?" The old village chief sniffed a puff of his cigarette and said helplessly.
"The whole village mobilizes and clears the Black Water Pond immediately. No matter what is there, killing them all. Not only can you save the children, but you can also keep the village peaceful. This is the only way!" I shouted without any doubt.
The village chief smoked, while the others stared at him.
"Village Chief, this is Master Zhang, who I invited from Wuhan. He has helped countless people to exorcise evil spirits and avoid disasters. He is a famous master in this industry. I asked him to see what kind of gods are protecting our He family, but he didn't expect to catch up with this." He An persuaded: "Just listen to him, the lives of children in the village are important."
"Brother, just give it a try! Since this evil thing has come to you, it is not a solution to delay it. The children are all sick and can't afford to delay it!" Dad He also advised.
"Okay!" The village chief knocked his pipe hard: "Just listen to you, you can do whatever you say!"
At this time, the situation was in crisis, and I had nothing to be polite, so I assigned it immediately.
First, the village chief led everyone home immediately, took hoes, shovels and other tools, and went straight to the Black Water Pond.
He also asked all the aunts and sisters-in-law to find out all the rags and cloths at home, tie them into scarecrows, and then hug some big roosters and dogs.
The remaining villagers will cut down more willow branches and peach blossom roots, and try to meet in Heishi within an hour!
After hearing this, everyone was skeptical, but there was no other way to think about it at this time. They all dispersed one after another and prepared for each other.
I went home with the father and son of the He family and asked his mother to prepare several large bags of clothes. The three of them each carried a large bag and walked straight towards the Black Water Pond.
The pond was already full of people. When the old village chief saw me coming, he came forward and said, "Youngsheng, everyone and things are all here, just tell me how to do it."
It can be seen that the whole village is very anxious, and many people's eyes are red, and they are obviously feeling uncomfortable.
"Block the dog around the pool, tie it into a circle, and tie the big rooster to the southeast."
"In addition, dig trenches and dams on both sides to bring all the water into the deep pit!" I put down the big bag on my shoulders and ordered everyone.
When the villagers heard this, they immediately followed my orders to work around. The roosters and dogs were chirping everywhere, and they were busy waving hoes and dancing.
It was not long since time was made, two long ditches were dug out from both sides of the pool, and the dark water poured into the deep pit.
Wow!
A big wave suddenly rose from the surface of the water, as if something was hidden there, and was about to move!
The dogs were yelling loudly, and the roosters flapped their wings and frightened. The villagers were shocked. Many timids threw down the shovel and turned around and ran away.
I took out the cinnabar, applied a handful of it on a scarecrow, and threw it into the pool with a snap.
Chapter completed!
