Chapter 20 Chapter Five Three Stories on the Train

In late February, just after the Lantern Festival, Zamao Xiaodao and I boarded the train going north. Spring Festival travel tickets are tight, and that friend really can’t get a sleeper. Fortunately, neither of us is that particular person. My friend gave me two hard seats, so I took them, carrying simple luggage and some food on the road, and we squeezed into them. train.No one gave it away, Agen just woke up, there are a lot of things to do, and the transferred assets have to be recovered.After Wang Shanqing was swept out, she disappeared without a trace, and no one knew where she had gone.

I'm actually quite curious, and want to know how this woman learned love gu - maybe it was really taught by the people in the next village?If I believed it, I would be really stupid.It's a pity that during the sensitive period, I didn't really want to touch Agen's wounded heart, but also respected his opinion, so I had to let it go and not mention it. After the festival is the peak period of Spring Festival travel, the train is crowded with people, and it is difficult to sit down, the electric bell keeps ringing, and the scenery outside the window recedes.During these busy days, Zamao Xiaodao and I rarely had time to communicate, so we sat down to exchange the latest information.When I talked about exterminating the dwarf mules, he was a little surprised to be planted with a vicious mark of hatred by that man, looking at the blue marks in my palms that seeped into the skin, with some surprise in his eyes.He said that he knew some similar creatures, but dwarf mules were always only produced in the southwest of the 100,000 mountains and were not born, so he had never heard of them.

The world is so big, it really is in various poses and with different expressions, full of wonders. I opened my palm, smiled, and said, although I often provoke some evil things, there are advantages and disadvantages in everything. Another way of thinking, this hand is also powerful for shooting ghosts. The two of us were talking, and there were two girls on the opposite side who laughed "puchi", overjoyed.They are two college students, and the one on the left looks pretty good. When we came over, we said hello and ignored them, just talking in a low voice.And the smiling one is the one on the right, who looks average, has some small freckles on his face, and his eyes are squinted like crescent moons, which makes him a little cute.Miscellaneous Hair Xiaodao is a monkey who climbs along the pole, and immediately started talking to them. I knew that the beautiful girl on the left is called Gu Lili, and the one on the right is called Qin Wen, both students of a certain university in Wuhan.

Miscellaneous Mao Xiaodao was wearing a Taoist gown, and he looked like a high-spirited Taoist. After chatting for a while, the two girls eagerly asked him to help him read their palms. Miscellaneous Mao Xiaodao didn't refuse, and happily touched the girl's little hand , flicker up.I ignored it, closed my eyes and meditated. There are several men sitting next to each other, they are also impromptu piles, eating melon seeds, and chatting. People who are away from home, except for state affairs, most of them like to chat about strange stories.A man with a Hunan accent, sipping a small wine, started talking about such a thing.He is from the Dongting Lake area in Yueyang, Hunan Province, which is a flood discharge area. Every time they "walk the dragon", they suffer a disaster there. Although they are relatively close to the city, they are also poor, so he has to come out and travel outside.

Let's not mention these things, let's talk about the "dragon" in 1998. What is Zoulong?The old people often say that there are dragons in the big rivers and rivers. If the dragon turns over, the water will rise, and if the dragon moves, there will be floods. Many people still remember the catastrophic flood in 1998. Flood peaks appeared in the Yangtze River, Songhua River, Minjiang River, and Pearl River. During this period, many heroic deeds emerged, and a large number of tofu projects and corrupt officials were exposed... ...Not to mention this, but when the flood in their hometown receded, they heard that a boa constrictor had died on the river beach outside Huangsha Street Town, and they were all curious to see it.Unexpectedly, when I got there and looked at it, everyone in the village was shocked—this python was more than 20 meters long, and the letter was two meters long. It was black all over, and its scales were as big as a palm. The vat is big, looks kindly, and has a bun on the top, which is a meat bun and looks like a horn.

A lot of superstitious old people nearby bowed down on the spot and called Grandpa Dragon God. Someone moved a wooden platform, spread red cloth, and offered incense and candles. In the evening, a fortune-teller came to carry the flag. He came from the east and told everyone that this big snake is a flood dragon. If it has not shed its nine layers of skin, it is not a real dragon. , It will be a disaster for one side.Everyone is asked to raise funds to build a temple, offer incense, and appease resentment.At that time, there are people who watch the excitement, but not many superstitious people, occasionally some older people respond, and there is no oily water, so they give up.And the big snake disappeared the next day, which is very strange.

Some people said that someone from above transported the dragon away for research, some said that the snake resurrected itself and returned to the water, and some said that some masters came to steal the dragon's corpse, but they were empty-handed.For a time, there were different opinions, and there was no accurate one. When he said this, someone else interrupted and asked if weird things often happened there now. He smiled and said, well, recently I heard that the government is going to relocate them, move them to a good resettlement area, and subsidize 100,000 yuan per person, that's good.This is great news.

After the man finished speaking, another Lunan businessman from Shandong immediately made fun of him, saying that he also told a story about werewolves.Others booed one after another, saying don't talk, don't talk, if you use the plot of Hollywood movies to fool us, stop as soon as possible.The businessman was furious, and he said what he said, believe it or not. He said that this is not his experience, but the legend of his wife's natal family. His wife's family is in Gaomi, Shandong, which is a good place. Since ancient times, it has had the reputation of "granary" and "mianxiang". At the time of the Bell Award, even people in his hometown didn’t know him).His wife is from the countryside west of Gaomi. The village raises cattle and also has a dairy farm. In 1995, cows died frequently, half of their necks were gnawed off, and the blood was drained, which was horrible.The strange thing is that the spectators didn't hear any movement at all, and none of the cows in that shed barked.This happened three times in a row, so I reported it.

A lot of policemen came and squatted in the cattle farm for three days. On the third night, wide-eyed police officers saw a furry creature walking upright jumping into the house through the transom.That creature is the werewolf we are talking about today. It stands 1.8 meters tall, has black hair, its head is like a wolf dog, and its claws are sharp. Once it enters the cow shed, all the cows are scared to lie on the ground. The werewolf It's like buying vegetables in a vegetable market, picking one by one, choosing one, and eating it in one bite, the cow will die, and it will drink blood and eat meat, very peacefully.The police must have been anxious when they saw it, so they shot and caught it.The werewolf was caught, but three policemen died.

This incident was quite sensational and uproarious, and it took a lot of effort from the higher authorities to calm it down. After he finished speaking, he tried to describe the ferocious appearance of the werewolf upside down again. Everyone laughed, but they didn't believe it.A guy from Sichuan who was sitting in the front row also came to make fun of him, saying that he also told a story about Shizhong Mountain.There are ghost stories all over the world, but where are the most in China?After counting and counting, we still have to talk about Sichuan, the land of abundance.why?Because too many people have died, and there are many bones.Leaving aside the distant ones, let’s just talk about two recent times: the first time was at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty. At the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, the population of Sichuan was more than 10 million. The second time, after 300 years of recuperation in the Ming Dynasty, the number reached more than 4 million at the end of the Ming Dynasty. As a result, Zhang Xianzhong, the leader of the peasant uprising advocated in the history books, was massacred and corpses were scattered all over the field. Later, according to statistics, there were only 400,000 to 500,000 people left.

Too many people die, and they all die violently, and it is easy to linger on. Apart from other things, there is an unnamed mountain near Fengdu (later changed to Fengdu), and the villagers call it Baoaozi. In 1979, when roads were built there, three mass graves were dug out. I know, anyway, there are white bones all over the mountains and plains, and the eyes of the wild dogs are red. At that time, there was no wise person to preside over it. As a result, these ghosts have no peace. They are haunted. You have to find an acquaintance to lead the way, and you have to wear the talisman bag obtained from Qingcheng Mountain, otherwise ghosts will hit the wall, or you will be haunted by ghosts, and ghosts will continue... You don’t laugh, anyone who has the courage to try it, the bag, until now, The number of people who died from ghosts hitting the wall cannot be counted on one hand. ... There was a lot of chatter, everyone talked about the supernatural things around them, I listened with a smile, and I didn't know whether it was true or not. The girl named Gu Lili on the opposite side went to pour water for instant noodles to eat, and Qin Wen, who was not in the mood to talk to passers-by, was so warm, she rummaged through her bag to find water to drink.Qin Wen didn't notice it, and asked Miscellaneous Mao Xiaodao with a smile, is what they said true?Daoist, are you really a cultivator?Are you practicing qi or building foundation now? Miscellaneous Mao Xiaodao was choked by these words, and didn't understand. Qin Wen said excitedly, she heard that cultivators are divided into five levels, which are Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Alchemy Formation, Nascent Soul, and Transformation God. There are ten levels in each floor, dare to ask which floor and level is the longest? Miscellaneous Mao Xiaodao's face turned black, he babbled, he didn't know what to say. Is this kid's head pinched? At this time, Gu Lili came back, holding two bowls of Master Kong, and greeted us warmly, do you want to eat?They still have it in their bags.We shook our heads and said let's go to the dining car for a while.Gu Lili and Qin Wen started to eat. After eating, she went to throw out the trash, and when she came back again, her face was pale.We all ask what's the matter, what's the matter?She burst into tears and said her wallet was lost.As soon as she turned around, we saw that the side of her red down jacket was scratched with a sharp knife, exposing the white down. The money was for her tuition and living expenses. Looking at her clothes, Gu Lili was not a student from a good family. She was wearing a red down jacket from the previous few years, and the color was washed out.She kept crying, saying that she was still there just now, why did she lose it?We asked when it was just now, and she cried and said that she must have lost it when she went to instant noodles.We all comforted him with good words, and then told the people in this carriage not to move. It was already past nine o'clock in the evening, and the marshals arrived ten minutes later, sleepy-eyed.After hearing Gu Lili's words, he yelled a few words and handed them over?No one answered, and the place is so crowded, it is unrealistic to check one by one. He was also helpless, he just wanted to ask Gu Lili to make a statement and put it on record. Gu Lili, Kenyi, she said it was the hard-earned money her old father earned from smashing rocks every day in the mines in the village last winter. If it was gone, there would be no second tuition. Only to jump into the river.She was crying like pear blossoms and rain, and a few men talking about mountains beside her were also sighing, persuading her: During the Spring Festival, when there are many people, there are many thieves, gangs, gangs, these unconscionable dog things, steal If you want something, how can I return it to you? I’m so happy; if you want more money, you will get off at the next stop; When they said that, it reminded me that Gu Lili cried even harder! Miscellaneous Mao Xiaodao just made a little money, and he was very angry, asking how much he lost?The girl said five thousand, and he was very proud, saying that it's okay, this money is nothing, don't cry, don't cry, he will give it!After speaking, he went to find the treasure bag that he carried with him.My heart moved, and I stopped him, saying don't pretend to be a master here, wait, I have a way. When I said that, everyone looked at me.
