The years of reselling the haunted house

The third uncle shook his head: "That's not true. But this kind of calm is not a good sign. Maybe it's time for something to happen..."

I questioned, "Third Uncle, why did you say that? Did you have a premonition?"

The third uncle said: "It's not a premonition, it happened for real. The police station in the Liuyuqiao area has received reports not long ago..."

Chapter 488

"Report? Another homicide?" I asked.

The third uncle shook his head: "That's not true. It's just that the residents of the two nearby villages will find some strange things when they pass the Liuyu bridge when walking at night. Someone saw someone in the river. Swim……"

"Someone swimming in the river? What kind of strange situation is that?"

"Listen to me. The first person who noticed this and reported it was an old man. He came back from drinking outside and walked past Liuyu Bridge. Looking down from the bridge, he saw a few people jumping up and down in the water. Exit. The old man was also kind, so he loudly reminded those people on the bridge, saying that the waterways here are complicated, and the bottom is different in depth, so don’t swim here, etc. As a result, the old man yelled for a long time, but those people still went their own way and ignored them at all. This reminder from the old man. The old man was also very angry, saying that it’s okay if you don’t listen to me, but I’m kind, so you should respond to me. The old man muttered and didn’t want to care about it, but he suddenly discovered by the moonlight that those few days A man in the water seems to have no head..."

"No... no head? Is that a corpse?" I couldn't help asking.

The third uncle went on to say: "The old man thinks so too. He suddenly woke up from the alcohol. He rubbed his eyes and looked carefully. Now it is clear that the shoulders of those people are indeed flat. They have no heads and How could he respond to his words? The old man was so frightened that he ran away, and immediately called the police. He said that a body was found in the river. After the police came, they checked the upstream and downstream, but found no body. There is no missing person nearby. Everyone said that the old man drank too much alcohol and had hallucinations. Although the old man insisted that what he saw was the truth, no one believed him."

I nodded: "Did a similar incident happen again later?"

"That's right. If this kind of thing happens once, it may be considered dizzy. If it happens again, it will be unexplainable. But the second time someone reported the crime, it was not that the headless man was found swimming in the river. It was often heard nearby. I heard someone calling for help. It sounds like someone is calling for help. As long as someone walks on the bridge, this kind of sound will come out. But after reporting the crime, after investigation, nothing happened. Later, it happened here every now and then. Strange thing, some people saw people walking back and forth on the bridge in the middle of the night, all in a hurry, from one end of the bridge to the other. Some people saw people lined up on the bridge jumping into the river, the sound of jumping into the river The sound of thumping water spread far away. In short, there are still many such strange phenomena that have been filed at the police station, and everything has been verified to be non-existent. However, the witnesses categorically say that it is the truth .”

After listening to the third uncle talk about the origin of the Liuyu bridge and what happened during the river festival, and then thinking about the recent rumors, it is indeed a bit scary to think about it.

The third uncle went on to say: "Later, more and more rumors about the bridge flowed out. It was said that the innocent souls who wanted to pass along the Mustard River would be blocked by this bridge. So there are more innocent souls blocked by this bridge. , there was a situation where the grievances lingered and wandered around. Later, no one in the nearby villagers dared to pass on the bridge. Including the villagers in the two nearby villages, they would rather detour for a few miles than go from Pass here."

I nodded: "No wonder we passed Liuyu Bridge several times, but we didn't find any other cars or people passing by. We are the only ones who dare to be sympathetic. The ignorant are fearless, and cross our bridge as usual."

The third uncle snorted coldly: "What ignorant people are fearless, even if they know there are ghosts, I am also fearless. Who is Lao Tzu, Li Dongbin, who is afraid of a few ghosts?"

I quickly waved my hand: "Okay, okay, third uncle, you are the best. You don't have to brag when the two of us are here. Let's discuss and discuss, should we go to Liuyuqiao?"

The third uncle was taken aback: "There is no need to discuss this, of course we have to go. We promised that Laobai to fetch Qiaoling, we can't break our promises. Besides, whether this Qiaoling can be handled is related to our building. What about the house?"

I nodded: "Anyway, I left with you, Uncle San. If you say go, we will go. Uncle San, you said that this bridge spirit has something to do with the haunting there?"

The third uncle replied affirmatively: "It must be related. What is this bridge spirit? The grievances around make me stronger and stronger. And the deeper the grievances, the more irritable this bridge spirit will become. Therefore, the more grievances on that bridge and that river, the more spirited and bad this bridge spirit will be deal with."

I smiled bitterly, yawned and said, "Okay, actually, I don't know what this bridge spirit is until now. Anyway, I don't want to ask any more questions, just wait for news from you, Uncle San. Go back to bed."

The third uncle nodded, and asked again: "By the way, where is the chicken that I asked you to get?"

After Uncle San's question, I suddenly remembered that those chickens were still closed in the trunk.

"Fuck. Fuck, those chickens have to poop in the trunk, Fuck Fuck..."

I yelled and ran outside.

The third uncle also got out of bed and pulled his shoes, cursing as he ran: "You brat, what else do you think you can do? Let me tell you, those chickens have to be alive to work, and they won't work if they are dead. If you let I'm suffocated, let's see how I settle accounts with you..."

I quickly ran outside and opened the trunk of the car.

Good guy, the smell of chicken feces in it almost smoked me.Fortunately, those chickens were still struggling with their legs bound, and they didn't look dead.

The third uncle went to pick up the chickens, found an empty room, untied the chickens, and raised them inside.He said that it seemed that the time to go to Liuyuqiao had to be postponed, and he had to wait for a few chickens to recover before they could go.

I don't know when the chicken will come back to life, I just know that our car is useless.I opened all four doors and the trunk, hoping that the smell of chicken shit would dissipate as soon as possible, otherwise the car would not be open.

We all slept well that night. Early the next morning, before I woke up, I heard the sound of cocks crowing from the yard.And one after another, one after another.

I rubbed my eyes, opened the curtains and looked out.I found six big roosters in the yard, and they were competing to crow and announce the dawn.

The third uncle squatted beside him and giggled silly.

Many guests have already been awakened and came to the yard to watch the strange things.It's not easy for such a scene to happen in this city.

I hurriedly put on my clothes and rushed out to greet my third uncle: "Third uncle, what are you doing? You're spreading chicken shit all over the yard, won't you smoke all the guests away?"

The third uncle rolled his eyes: "Don't worry, I've finished walking, this is to restore the pure vitality of these chickens."

Chapter 489

After hearing Uncle San's words, I was very happy: "Grass, I've heard of walking dogs, but I haven't heard of walking chickens. Where did you go for walks?"

The third uncle shook a piece of rope in his hand, and only then did I realize that he was holding a piece of string in his hand, and the legs of several roosters over there were tied into a string by the string.

Uncle San explained: "I'm so exhausted. I got up at three o'clock in the morning, took these chickens, and walked along the school for a good meal. These chickens ate some grass seeds in the grass, After drinking some dew, I finally regained some vitality. Otherwise, you will have to suffocate to death."

I covered my mouth and didn't dare to laugh. It was a bit regretful that I didn't see my third uncle walking the chicken. Thinking of the scene of my third uncle walking the chicken on the campus with a rope, it should be quite spectacular.

I saw that Uncle San cared so much about these chickens that he almost hugged them and made out with them.I questioned, "Third uncle, isn't it just a few chickens? Why are you so caring?"

At this time, Pang Dahai also came out yawning, and asked, "It's so early in the morning, where did the rooster crow?"

This guy must have been sleepy, he forgot about the chicken he bought himself.

I glared at Pang Dahai: "What's your brain? You forgot the chicken you went to buy?"

Fat Dahai suddenly realized, looked at the chickens, and asked the third uncle: "Uncle Shi, what are you asking us to buy these chickens for? Hehe, do you want to improve our food for us because of our hard work? These chickens are my favorite." You know, they all grew up eating insects and grass, and they haven't been fed any feed, so the taste must be good. Are we braised in soy sauce or stewed?"

The third uncle stood up and kicked Pang Haihai: "I'll stew you first! Let me tell you, if we go to Liuyuqiao this time, whether we can succeed or not depends on these babies. From now on, these few The chickens are under the control of the two of you, you have to make sure they are alive and kicking, and if there is one wilting, I can't spare you."

As he said that, the third uncle stuffed the rope for walking the chicken into my hand, and with his hands behind his back, he yawned and went back to the room to catch up on sleep.

The two of us looked at the chickens in the yard, and watched the guests pointing at us, just want to find a crack in the ground to get in.

Pang Haihai had a smirk on his face: "Boss, I'm not talking about you. I feel that your third uncle doesn't even care about you."

The roosters crowed one after another as if they understood.

I glared at the fat man, and stuffed the rope into his hand: "Stop talking nonsense, don't let these ancestors bark anymore, it's too noisy."

After speaking, I left too.

Pang Dahai was dumbfounded, and kept shouting: "Boss, you're embarrassing me a bit, if they want to scream, I can't help it..."

After all, I can't completely let go like Uncle San.In the end, Pang Dahai and I fought together to catch those roosters back.

However, Uncle San's method of walking the chickens is really clever. Those chickens that have been stuffed in the trunk for so long are really half-dead when they first come out.After being tormented by the third uncle, he really returned to his original appearance.All of them were full of air, and when Pang Haihai and I fought, I was almost pecked by those cocks.

In the morning, the third uncle asked Chen Tao to go out and buy a few chicken coops, and put the six roosters in the six chicken coops.In addition, I found that he had prepared an extra chicken coop, which was slightly larger than the normal chicken coop, but it was empty inside.

I asked Uncle San what the cage was for?The third uncle said mysteriously that he would keep it a secret.

At noon, the third uncle was carrying a big bag, stuffed some things into the trunk, and called us to Liuyu Bridge.

As for the seven chicken coops, the third uncle arranged for Chen Tao to get a pickup truck, and they pulled them along with us.

Liang Yue went back to the company after shopping with Yumo yesterday.We didn't look for her in this operation, only me and Pang Dahai followed my third uncle, plus the car driven by Chen Tao.There were four of us, six chickens, and we drove to Liuyuqiao.

When there were still two or three miles away from Liuyu Bridge, the third uncle asked the fat man to detour the car for a short distance, and drove the car into a small forest next to it and stopped.

This road has reached here, and there are very few people seen.

According to the third uncle's order, we got out of the car and hung the six chicken cages on two trees in the woods.

I thought to myself, this is good, people walk their dogs on the street and birds in the woods, but we have been walking chickens.

After the chicken coop was delivered to the place, the third uncle sent Chen Tao away.

After Chen Tao left, I asked my third uncle: "This is coming, what should I do next? You have to explain to us, otherwise I really don't know what to do."

"No hurry, no hurry." Uncle San looked up at the sky. In the woods where we were, the sun shone through the gaps in the leaves, which was a bit dazzling.

It should be past noon by now.The third uncle beckoned: "Let's go, let's go to Liuyu Bridge to see the environment."

We drove across the Naliu bridge several times, and didn't think there was anything wrong with the bridge at the time.We have never looked carefully at the ancient stone arch bridge.This time we are going to deal with this bridge, and it is also appropriate to observe the surrounding environment carefully.

I pointed to the chicken coops on the tree and asked, "Let's go, where are these chickens?"

The third uncle waved his hand: "Let's put it here, I can't lose it. Let them get off the ground and absorb the jungle atmosphere of these trees, and I want to add some wildness to these chickens. In fact, pheasants are the best. But we definitely can’t catch pheasants here, so to use this kind of chicken, you must practice well before you can use it.”

Only then did I understand Uncle San's intention. He originally wanted some ferocious pheasants.But there is no way, it will definitely not be available in a short period of time, so I have to settle for a few roosters.And he walked the chickens in the early morning, let the chickens eat grass seeds, drink dew, and now absorb the essence of the woods on the trees, all of which are ways to restore the wildness of the rooster.

I wondered in my heart, we are going to catch Qiao Ling, not to fight cocks, what's the use of training such a fierce chicken?

The more Uncle San kept silent, the more curious I became.I believe Pang Dahai is the same, but this guy is just stupid and bold, he doesn't care about anything.Looking at him now, he doesn't look like he came to pick up some bridge spirit, but he looks like he came for an outing with his third uncle, his face flushed with excitement.

I said to myself, he doesn't know what happened to the mustard river flowing on the bridge and below, let alone the strange things that happened on the bridge recently, otherwise he might not be able to relax.

Third Uncle took Pang Dahai and me, left the woods, and walked to Liuyu Bridge.

We walked through the woods, walked about a kilometer, and heard the sound of splashing water in front of us.

This shows that we are not far from Mustard River.

It turned out that when I passed the mustard river, I didn't feel anything.This time I came with a purpose, the closer I got to this mustard river, the more nervous I became.It feels as if the pores on my body have opened up.

As the distance got closer, I smelled a unique fishy smell of river water.

Chapter 490

Pang Dahai sniffed and muttered, "Strange, why is this water so fishy?"

My third uncle and I didn't talk, we both knew in our hearts that the water smelled so strong, it must not be a good thing.

We walked through a patch of grass and came to the bank of the mustard river ahead.

Although the Mustard River is not in the flood season at this time, the water flow is not small. The turbid river is flowing quietly, and nothing can be seen from the surface.

Third Uncle picked up a stone and threw it hard into the Mustard River.

The stone sank to the bottom of the water with a thud.There was a small splash of water.

After the splash, the water became calm again.

Uncle San waved his hand and led us along the river bank towards Liuyu Bridge.

The banks of the river are full of weeds like reeds, waist high.Where we are standing, there are still hundreds of meters away from the Liuyu Bridge.Looking from a distance from this angle, Liuyu Bridge has a beautiful and unique shape, with a graceful arc thrown out from the waist, straddling the banks of the Mustard River.Every detail of the stone arch bridge shows its unique ancient charm.

I counted the bridge holes flowing in the bridge, and there are thirteen holes, which belong to the Thirteen-Arch Bridge.

The third uncle sighed: "It's such an ancient bridge, no wonder it needs to be maintained. Otherwise, if there is damage or collapse, it is really a loss."

We walked in the direction of the bridge without stopping, and soon arrived at the head of the bridge.

When we passed the bridge before, we were all in the car. This is the first time we have observed this ancient bridge so closely.

There is a stone tablet at the head of the bridge, with the words "Liu Yuqiao" on the front.We saw this the last time we drove by.We came here with a purpose this time, so we naturally had to take another look. We went around to the back of the stele and found that there were four words "Liu Yu Range Rover" on it.

The third uncle took a closer look, pointed to the four characters and said: "Look, this is still written by Yongzheng's imperial pen. It seems that the name of this bridge is really given by Yongzheng."

I took a look, and sure enough, Yongzheng's inscription and imperial seal are there, and they are still very clear.This should have been repaired during the last repair.Otherwise, it is impossible to keep it so clear for more than 300 years.

We walked along the stone bridge, from the end of the bridge to the end of the bridge, and from the end of the bridge to the end of the bridge.I didn't have any abnormal reactions, and third uncle didn't seem to see anything unusual.The expression has always been very natural and relaxed.This made my heart, which has been hanging, relax a little.

Not only that, standing on the bridge, because the river is wide, you can just have a panoramic view of the surrounding scenery.It's just that the water is a bit muddy now, if it was in the Qing Dynasty, it must not be like this.Imagine standing at the head of the bridge at that time, looking at the surrounding green trees and the sparkling blue waves under the bridge, it was really a wonderful scene.It is fully worthy of the words "better than Range Rover".

After walking back and forth, I asked my third uncle, "Did you see anything?"

Uncle San shook his head: "There is nothing wrong with the Feng Shui of this bridge."

I nodded: "That's for sure. It was named by Emperor Yongzheng himself at that time. There must have been an imperial Fengshui master to investigate it. Fengshui must not be wrong."

The third uncle said: "But. Why haven't we seen the cockroach in Zhenqiao?"

The third uncle walked to the middle of the bridge again, leaned out half of his body, and looked under the bridge.

I hugged him quickly, lest he accidentally fall into the river again.

I asked, "Third Uncle, doesn't every bridge have to be watered by earthworms?"

The third uncle shook his head: "As long as there is a river with hidden dangers of flooding, there will definitely be water in the town of cockroaches. This is a tradition left by our ancestors. And this tradition has been verified by countless examples. There is water in the town of cockroaches." Rivers that are not necessarily free from floods. But rivers that do not have cockroach town water, [-]% have floods. It’s just the size of the floods.”

I smiled wryly: "Could it be that this Liuyu bridge was an accident?"

"No. In fact, it is very particular about how the craftsman arranges the water in this cockroach town. It also tests the level and ability of the bridge builders. Because where the cockroach is placed depends on the flow direction of the river, the size of the water, and the flow rate. The artisans who place the cockroaches must not only understand the stone carving technique, but also know some knowledge of water conservancy. Because the cockroaches are directly related to whether the entire water area can be calmed. According to my experience, 80.00% of the cockroaches will be carved on the bridge , some are at the head of the bridge, some are at the end of the bridge, some are on the guardrail of the bridge, and some are on the base and pier of the bridge..."

I looked around and asked, "Then we have searched all over the bridge, and we haven't seen any cockroaches. The only thing left is under the bridge. Do you want to get a rope and tie me down to find it?"

The third uncle waved his hand: "Forget it. If you have another good or bad, how can I feel sorry for your grandfather and your father. It doesn't matter if you can't find it. I will lure it out tonight."

"Draw it out? Draw it out? Isn't that a myth and legend? And generally speaking, it's a stone carving. How could it be drawn out?" I asked curiously.

The third uncle chuckled: "Nephew, your third uncle has a lot of skills that you haven't seen before. I said that if you can attract it, you can attract it. When the time comes, you should pay attention. Go, go back."

The third uncle waved his arms vigorously, and took Pang Dahai and me back to the small forest along the same path.He said that he would wait until after dark before coming to Liuyu Bridge.Tonight, we must obtain the bridge spirit that Lao Bai mentioned.

After returning to the grove, we first checked the six roosters hanging on the tree.After Third Uncle's arrangement, those chickens really got a lot more excited.The cockscomb on the head is full and swollen, bright red in color, as if it could burst and bleed at any time.

The third uncle nodded in satisfaction and asked Pang Haihai and me to help. He took out a silver needle and pricked the blood on the combs of six roosters respectively.
