Paranormal Investigation Notes

Chapter 330
Torii?

Speaking of this moment, Lu Ming still doesn't know what the relationship between this archway and whether Nanlin Street is "evil".But he also had to admit that this old man Liu Baohua was really skilled in telling stories, and he was able to arouse people's curiosity.

Facing the eager eyes of all his old friends, and the three of Zhang Dingshan who were staring at him intently, Liu Baohua took another slow puff of cigarette: "At that time, there was no archway there.

After the girl's death, the body was thrown there, and the family didn't dare to collect the body. After a few days, it was eaten badly by wild dogs and so on. What a pity.

But there is a saying that is good, the law of heaven recurs, and retribution is not good.The Zhou family has done a lot of evil this week, isn't the retribution coming soon?

Since the girl's death, the Zhou family has become more and more troubled.First, the second son of the Zhou family had big sores on his body within a few days, and then he had a fever, and the people who had the fever were confused.I invited a famous doctor in the prefecture city to see him, and he took a lot of medicine, but it was of no use at all.

I've heard people say that this kid lay on the bed in a daze all day long, screaming continuously, screaming for pain, and shouting things like 'I don't dare anymore', 'Forgive me' and the like.

It seems that this is not a real disease, but a virtual disease. "

Lu Ming did know that in the feudal superstition industry, the so-called real illness usually refers to a real illness, such as bacterial infection, back pain and leg pain.As for the deficiency disease, it refers to the upper body of a ghost, bumping into something, encountering a fox fairy and so on.

"The Zhou family is rich, so they invited a Taoist priest from Nantai Mountain. The Taoist priest came to practice the method, said it was done, took the money and left, but it was still useless. The second boy of the Zhou family still died of illness. Tsk tsk , This is called God wants to accept people, retribution.

It's strange to say that since the death of the second boy of the Zhou family, the Zhou family has been worse every day, and the years are not good.

Several Zhuangzi of his family were ransacked by lake bandits and suffered heavy losses.The eldest son who was an official outside heard that he was sent to prison for interrogation because he offended the official, and spent a lot of money to keep him safe.The youngest daughter of the family committed adultery with a servant and eloped. The angry old man lay there for several days, and the harvest in the field was not good. When a strong wind came down, other people's fields were fine, and the corn in the old Zhou's field fell to the ground. , the harvest that year was only half that of others.

Everyone in the town said that it was the old Zhou family who committed a lot of evil and was punished by God. "

No matter when, the evildoers are always happy to be punished.At least the old people here have no sympathy for the Zhou family.

The old man Liu Baohua sighed.

"But it's a pity, this week's family still deserves to die. Just when Zhou's family was tossed about half their lives, a wandering Taoist passed by, saw Zhou's house, and came to the door.

He said, the Zhou family did a lot of evil, and the whole family should have been exterminated.It's just that the ancestors of the Zhou family showed kindness during a severe drought in a certain year, opened a porridge shed, saved hundreds of people, and accumulated great virtues. The blessings of this generation have made the Zhou family change their fate a little bit. Opportunity.

How should this life be changed?The first is, of course, to accumulate virtue and do good deeds, to make amends, which goes without saying.Second, the Taoist said that the reason why the Zhou family suffered such bad luck was because too many people died unjustly, especially the girl who was snatched by the second son before, lost her life for no reason and became a ghost, wanting revenge.

Now, it is necessary to appease the resentment of those who died unjustly, especially this girl.How to calm down?It is to build a memorial archway at the place where the Zhou family dumped the corpse.

The Taoist said that this archway has two purposes.The first is repression.Suppress those people's grievances.The second is to accept offerings.But this worship is not burning incense and kneeling down. The archways are all very high, which means "God has eyes", that is to say, let the Zhou family do good deeds and accumulate virtue. Even the wronged souls can see that the Zhou family has changed their past and is making atonement, so as to calm their grievances.

In this way, one inside and one outside, two-pronged approach, can change the fate of the Zhou family against the sky, so that the family will not be destroyed.

After hearing what the Taoist said, the Zhou family built an archway and changed their past. Later, the family gradually recovered.Although more than half of the tossing family was broken some time ago, it always ended up as a wealthy family. "

Old man Liu Baohua stopped talking, picked up his cup and took a sip of water.An old man couldn't help asking: "What's behind?"

"It's gone. It's over."

"You old Liu, you are so unhappy. What does this archway have to do with Nanlin Street?"

"What do you mean? After Nanlin Street became a food street, the government demolished the archway ten years ago for the sake of smooth traffic?"

Ok?
All the old people gasped.

"I've heard that Nanlin Street is evil, but I really don't know. It started to become evil after the archway was demolished?"

"Hey...Old Liu, it's really true when you say that. Before the archway was demolished, I didn't remember what was said on Nanlin Street. It really spread slowly over the past ten years or so."

"It's been hundreds of years, and this resentment hasn't dissipated? What a lot of resentment."

Old Liu gave him a sideways glance: "Didn't you hear what the Taoist said? This archway is mainly about repression. Now that there is no repression, the resentment and the wronged souls have all come out?"

"If you want me to say, the Taoist priest should have saved all these wronged souls at that time."

"Extend? That's the job of a monk, not a Taoist priest."

"What do you need to say? If you can get rid of it, it's too early to get rid of it. I have a lot of resentment, and I can't get rid of it."

The old people talked one after another.Lu Ming had no choice but to interject: "Master, what's wrong with this Nanlin Street? What does it have to do with every house having gossip mirrors?"

"Well, that's another story."

The old man Liu Baohua coughed lightly: "Ten years ago, the government demolished the archway, and I felt bad in my heart that something would happen. I even reported to the government, saying that the archway cannot be demolished, and there is a lot of resentment. Even if it needs to be demolished, At least do a ritual ceremony first, right?

But the government didn't listen, and said that I was a feudal superstition, and gave me a scolding.I am wronged.What's going on behind you, is something wrong? "

"I just heard that it's evil, but I don't know what it is. What is it, old Liu?"

"Do you still remember that kid from the Wu family?"

"Wu's? The house in the back door building?"

"Yes, it's that kid who pissed off his parents, ran away his wife, and drank and gambled."

"That kid is a famous bum. Didn't he die a long time ago? Suicide?"

suicide?

Lu Ming narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Yes, it was suicide. I went to see it at the time. I heard from people at the time that this kid owed a gambling debt and couldn't pay it back. He was beaten up that day. He was so angry that he couldn't stand it. I also heard that the daughter-in-law got married with someone else, and the child changed her surname, so she hanged herself. This kind of person, even if he is dead, what else can he do besides harming others while alive?"

Zhang Dingshan winked at He Wei.He Wei understood it, and immediately took out her mobile phone and started contacting Feng Guozhu to obtain information about the case.

Old man Liu Baohua scoffed at this statement: "What kind of suicide is clearly possessed by a ghost."

"How do you say this?"

"The place where I lived was not far from the Wu family boy. At that time, the Wu family boy had a dog and two geese at home. Before the Wu family boy hanged himself, guess what happened to the dog? He went on a hunger strike and starved himself to death. gone."

"Can a dog go on a hunger strike? Are you sick?"

"impossible."

The old man Liu Baohua denied it outright: "One day I passed by Wu's house and heard the boy from Wu's family beating that dog. That guy grabbed the dog's head and slapped it hard. While beating, he scolded it for not eating or something. Later, I also saw that the Wu family boy invited a veterinarian to see him. I went to the door to eavesdrop. The veterinarian said clearly that he was not sick at all. He just refused to eat, and later starved to death. up.

I also saw the dog's corpse, it was so hungry that only skin and bones were left, it was miserable.

This is not over yet, the dog is starved to death, and the geese are next.The goose also started a hunger strike and died of starvation. "

This seems a bit unbelievable.

Humans commit suicide by hunger strike, but animals such as dogs and geese also commit suicide by hunger strike?

They have no intelligence, only instinct as animals.However, animal instincts do not seem to include the option of starving to death.

"Old Liu, are you talking nonsense? It's that bastard who starved to death because he didn't bother to feed him?"

The old man Liu Baohua snorted and said in dissatisfaction: "The neighbors knew about this at the time, and I was not the only one who saw it. Old Sun knew it too. If you don't believe me, you can ask him. Ah, I forgot, Old Sun just left last month. Right? Then you go ask Lao Zhao. Lao Zhao knows better."

Lu Ming secretly wrote down Lao Zhao's name.

"I'll talk about it later if you don't want to ask. You can continue to talk, what's next?"

"Everyone knows what happened next, the dog died, the goose died, yes, there is another thing, one day I passed by Wu's house, and saw a mouse running out of his house, in broad daylight , just ran straight out of Wu’s house, didn’t avoid people, rushed to the sewer across the street and drowned.”

The old people looked at each other.

"All the rats committed suicide? It's...it's normal for the rats to run into the sewer, have you seen it?"

"The cement cover of the sewer was broken, and the mouth was open. I saw it for real. The mouse just jumped into the water, struggled for a while, and then drowned. I was scared at the time, so I hurried away. After that, Everyone knows that the Wu family boy hanged himself and committed suicide."

Old man Liu Baohua sighed a few times: "You said that the Wu family boy committed suicide because he owed gambling debts, his wife followed someone else, and the child changed his surname. Let me ask you, you think about it yourself, just like the Wu family boy's virtue , could he commit suicide?"

A group of old people thought about it.

Lu Ming asked, "This boy from the Wu family...why can't he commit suicide?"

Generally speaking, the sum of these three things, such as being unable to repay the gambling debt, running away from the daughter-in-law, and changing the child's surname, can be regarded as a sufficient condition for suicide.

Strong-willed people can handle these pressures, but it's not uncommon for them to commit suicide because of them.

"The neighbors in the neighborhood know that the boy from the Wu family is a bully. You said that if he is a normal person, he can piss off his parents and run away his wife? That person is not normal, he is a born bad person.

Got a gambling debt?Is this a big deal for the Wu family boy?The daughter-in-law ran away with someone, and the son changed his surname?With his personality, it's normal for him to come to the door with a knife and ask for an explanation. He committed suicide for this matter? "

Lu Ming recalled the marginalized people he had encountered in the past, and he had to admit that the more marginalized people were, the stronger their mental capacity would be.

Barefoot people are not afraid of shoes, they are barefoot.After having nothing to lose, it is even more generous.It's really unlikely that such a person would commit suicide.

Usually when encountering this kind of thing, if you don't care, just do it casually. If you care, killing someone with a knife and then being caught and shot is the normal ending.As for suicide?

If they can wrong themselves like this, they won't become marginalized people in society.

"After the boy from the Wu family hanged himself, the neighbors slowly came to their senses and felt that this boy could not have committed suicide. At this time, the things that were not noticed before were all turned up.

What kind of dog committed suicide, goose committed suicide, mouse committed suicide by jumping into the water, and the Wu family boy hanged himself, tsk tsk, chickens and dogs do not stay.How evil is this?If you were replaced, wouldn't you feel hairy? "

Lu Ming felt that if such a thing happened in his neighbor's house, it would be hard for him not to think about it.

"From what you mean, the Wu family kid has run into something evil? Possessed? Huh? Is it because of the archway?"

The old man Liu Baohua patted his thigh: "Why don't you say it. The archway is here, and there is nothing wrong with it. The archway is gone. Look, something happened?"

A group of old people looked at each other in blank dismay.

"Then this..."

"I was also afraid at the time." Old man Liu Baohua said, "You said that the crimes committed by the Zhou family, those innocent souls, have been suppressed for so many years, how much resentment they have. Now that there is no memorial archway to suppress, why are they still making trouble?

At Nanlin Street, some people felt that it was evil, so they moved away.Those who couldn't move away temporarily, such as me, pooled some money together, thinking about finding a master to take a look, the Wu family boy deserves his death, we good people can't have any more accidents.

Later, a master was found.I also saw it at the time, that fairy-like bone, it was unusual at first glance.When the master went to Nanlin Street and took a look, he said it was not good, there was a ghost that broke the seal and was about to come out to make trouble.

Later, after talking about the matter in detail, the master also surveyed everywhere, and sighed, saying that if the ghost is still suppressed, he can do it to save it.He said that the senior expert who set the seal originally planned to let the next generation save these ghosts after a hundred years.It's a pity that the sea has changed, and no one knows about it after a hundred years, so it's just left on the ground.

Now, the archway has been demolished, and the ghost has escaped from the trap. He doesn't know where it is hidden, and he has nothing to do.

That ghost wiped out the entire Wu family, and it will definitely do harm again later.There is no way to get rid of it now, so we can only prevent it.How to prevent this?It's simple, no matter if you're opening a shop or living in a house, you must put up a gossip mirror. In this way, the ghost will not be able to harm people, and the house will be safe.

From then on, here in Nanlin Street, every household has put up gossip mirrors, and over time, it has become a custom. "
