Chen Qiu was the Taoist priest's name. Liu Hechou said that he would definitely die for my fortune-telling, but unexpectedly he actually died.
"Uncle Bai, how did he die?" I really want to know the cause of Chen Qiu's death, because his death makes me feel a heavy sense of guilt.
"The Taoism is not enough to forcibly spy on the secrets of the sky, and the sky will strike five thunders."
The five thunders and bangs in the sky can be regarded as the most miserable way of death, and it is also the most vicious curse.
Never would I have thought that Daoist Chen Qiu would suffer such bad luck just by doing the math for me, and I was so shocked that I couldn't say a word.
Liu Hechou said that Chen Qiu deserved to die that day, but he was a Taoist priest who kept the precepts and received the scriptures, so he had a seven-day time limit for atonement.
It's a pity that after all, it was because of insufficient morality and deeds that he failed to snatch a chance of life from the hands of God.
"Uncle Bai, is my horoscope really that evil?" I couldn't help asking.
"Your horoscope is not evil, it is your fate that is evil. There are some things you should not know for the time being. The sooner you know, the worse it will be for you. In short, you have to trust me, everything I do is for your own good, I am determined not to harm you."
I believe what he said, although I know he must have important things to hide from me, but he will not have the slightest malice towards me.Otherwise, he wouldn't have risked his life trying to save me from Huixiang's men, and if he had been half a step late that day, I would have died at Xie Guangcai's mouth.
In the following days, there is nothing to describe.
Huixiang didn't cause trouble anymore and completely disappeared, and Huijiguan didn't make a big fuss about Chen Qiu's death.
Liu Hechou and I continued to paddle broken boats in the Yellow River, salvaging corpses to make money.Regarding my marriage with Empress Huang He, Liu Hechou asked me not to be impatient, saying that she is inconvenient now, and when she is convenient, she will naturally come to me.
I thought to myself, why am I in a hurry, she is not in a hurry, but I will be happy to be single instead.Maybe she will forget about me after a long time, and then I can use the money I earn from salvaging the corpse to marry a living woman as my wife.
After a few months of such calm, I didn't cause trouble anymore, but Liu Hechou got into a very troublesome thing.
At the beginning of July, a big man from other places came to Liu Hechou.
At first glance, this person was not young. He was accompanied by seven or eight people, driving two Land Cruisers that dared to climb the embankment. Zhao Gang, the village head of Liu Hechou's village, led the way.
"What's your name, brother?" After entering the courtyard, the big man walked up to Liu Hechou and asked.
"My surname is Bai, and I'm known as Liu Hechou."
"There are many strange people on the Yellow River since ancient times. Your village chief has told me a lot about Brother Bai. I would like to ask you to help retrieve a pair of bones."
"But in the local area?" Liu Hechou asked.
"Not far, Nine Dragons Cave."
Nine Dragon Cave is indeed not far away, thirty miles by water, and only a hundred miles by dry road.
But that place is evil. When Liu Hechou told me that the corpses could not be fished up, he also told me that he could not go there.
This Nine Dragon Cave is the forbidden waters that he repeatedly warned me, the living should not enter, and those who trespass will die.
"Then I'm sorry, I can't go to the Nine Dragons Cave, no matter how much I pay." When he heard that it was the Nine Dragons Cave, Liu Hechou said it straight away, leaving no room for bargaining.
Seeing Liu Heshou opened his mouth to refuse, Village Chief Zhao couldn't hold back on the spot. It was obvious that he had received benefits and guaranteed tickets, otherwise he would not have brought him here himself.Smiling and smoothing things over, he said, "Liu Hechou, Mr. Wang has a distinguished status. This time he came here specially to ask you for help. Don't talk so hard, money is not a problem."
"I'm going to go to you, what's the use of asking for money that I'm going to spend." Liu Hechou stared at Village Chief Zhao and went back directly.
Now Village Chief Zhao's face became even more ugly, and he was so gloomy that he was about to drip.
As the old saying goes, troublemakers come out of poor mountains and bad waters.Most of the cadres who can become cadres in our place where the birds don't shit are beaten, and there are family influences behind them.
If Village Chief Zhao hadn't had an outburst because of the embarrassment of this big man today, I guess he would have pointed at Liu Hechou's nose and scolded his mother.
After being rejected by Liu Hechou, the honored guest looked as usual, standing in place as if nothing had happened, looking around the yard.
He didn't speak, but a sturdy man with a scarred face walked out of the accompanying people.
The man with the scar face walked up to Liu Hechou in a few steps, without saying a word, just staring at him.
Everyone has an aura, and the aura of a man with a scar face is very oppressive, especially his fierce eyes, which seem to be killing people.
In contrast, Liu Hechou, who was thin and wrapped in an old padded jacket, was immediately covered by his aura.Liu Hechousheng was not masculine enough in the first place, and he was showing cowardice at the moment.
The body stared at by the scarred face trembled involuntarily, and I didn't even dare to breathe out when I stood by the side.Ghosts still know to be afraid of evil people, let alone us and good people.
After confronting like this for a while, when Liu Hechou was about to be overwhelmed, he suddenly stomped his feet, turned around and ran into the house.
When he came out again, he was holding three black tablets in his hand.
I saw Liu Hechou holding up a memorial tablet over the scarred man, striding forward to the honored guest, and said loudly: "The Bai family began to search for corpses from my great-grandfather, this is his memorial tablet."
"This is my grandfather."
"This is my father."
"Their tablets are here, and their bodies are in the Nine Dragon Cave."
"As long as you can give me a reason to go to Jiulong Cave today, I, Liu Hechou, will go with you now!"
No one expected that Liu Hechou would suddenly come out holding the memorial tablet of his ancestors, and no one spoke now.
A group of people came and went quickly.After they were all gone, I went to close the courtyard door, and when I went back to the house, I saw Liu Hechou throwing the ancestral tablet into the stove.
"Uncle Bai, what are you doing?" I asked in surprise.
"Shields can only be used once, why keep them?"
"But, these are all tablets of your ancestors, you do this..."
I'm a little bit speechless, because I've never seen anyone burn ancestral tablets, it's not just a big treason, it's just unbelievable.
"If you don't respect your ancestors, what's the use of respecting them!"
"..."
I am completely speechless.
I have never heard of unworthy descendants, but I have never heard of unworthy ancestors.
Seeing that he started talking nonsense, I didn't stay in the house, turned around and left the small courtyard, leaving him alone to calm down.
The Bai family has been collecting corpses for generations, and they don't usually have contact with the villagers. Naturally, no one knows the cause of their family's death.If Liu Hechou hadn't suddenly used the ancestral tablets as a shield today, even I wouldn't have known that they all died in the Nine Dragon Cave.
There is no doubt that the Bai family hides a sad and bizarre family story. What kind of taboos are there in the waters of the Nine Dragon Caves arouses my curiosity.
There are also many mysterious legends about the Jiulong Cave in our local area. The Jiulong Cave has not existed since ancient times, but was formed in the troubled times of China more than 100 years ago.
The original Jiulong Cave was just a mountain peak bypassed by the Yellow River, connected end to end with Funiu Mountain. When China was in trouble more than 100 years ago, the Yellow River encountered a rare flood.The water flooded both sides of the Yellow River, submerged countless towns and villages, and directly washed away the mountain.
During dinner that day, Liu Hechou took the initiative to tell me about the Nine Dragon Cave.
