Chapter 3 Chapter Two The First Strange Thing (Part 1)

Let me tell you something strange first. Maba Town is located at the junction of Jiangsu and Anhui, and belongs to Huai'an. Within the scope of Maba Town, there is a place called Ma'an. Before the founding of New China, a strange thing happened here. The location of Maba Town belonged to Dongyang County during the Qin Shihuang period, and a large number of Qin and Han ancient tombs gathered here. Since ancient times, there have been many tomb robbers here, so the local people are very familiar with the prevention of tomb robbers.At that time, there was a local tyrant in Ma'an named Ma Pingchuan, who was very famous in that area and controlled the local tobacco business.The Ma family has been entrenched in the area for several generations, and the ancestral graves are lush: in that era, wars continued, and Ma Pingchuan adopted deserters from all walks of life here and distributed guns. Ma'an once became a very strong local armed gathering place.

Behind Ma'an Village, there is a cemetery, where the ancestral graves of the Ma family are entrenched.In order to prevent people from robbing the tomb, many people have been sent to guard it. That year, a strange thing happened in this cemetery. Overnight, hundreds of acres of fields behind the village, with the graveyard as the center, all the crops withered and died. This caused great panic in the local area. Ma Pingchuan thought that there was something wrong with the feng shui of his ancestral grave, so he quickly invited several of the most famous local feng shui masters to conduct a joint trial in eight halls, trying to find a way to resolve it, but in the end he couldn't find out. Why come.Ma Pingchuan was full of courage in doing things, and immediately sold a lot of money, found a new land with good geomantic omen, and ordered the grave to be moved.All of a sudden, the whole plain behind the village was filled with fireworks, as if a war was underway. The main family of the Ma family moved first, followed by the mother's family.In the beginning, it was my family who raised the coffin. Ma Pingchuan had done enough pomp and ostentation. A few platoons of soldiers fired guns at the sky and opened the old grave of his great-grandfather, only to find that the coffin could not be found after digging more than ten meters deep in the grave.

The coffin in the ancestral grave has disappeared. Ma Pingchuan was furious and ordered all the ancestral graves to be opened on the same day. When the dust was flying, they were surprised to find that there were no coffins under all the tombs in the cemetery they had worshiped for hundreds of years. Ma Pingchuan was furious, and immediately shot several soldiers guarding the cemetery, and ordered all the cemeteries in the county to be dug out to see if the coffin was still there.He had to find out what was going on. Could it be that there were grave robbers who used their ancestral graves as money houses, occupied them for many years, and kept guarding them?

After a thorough investigation, Ma Pingchuan found that all the ancestral graves without coffins were concentrated in fields with dead crops. This incident has almost become Ma Pingchuan's heart demon. The local Fengshui masters know that if they get involved in such incidents, they may lose their lives, so they all ran away.There are also many Fengshui masters from other places who thought it might be an opportunity and came to take risks. During this period, they saw each other for a month. When the teacher comes to the door, he will call out. On the third day of the retreat, Ma Pingchuan was doing Tai Chi in the yard when he suddenly saw a child sitting on the eaves of his house.

The child had a peaceful face, sitting on the corner of the eaves, wearing a green cloth gown, that is, he looked like a teenager, and looked at him without saying a word. Ma Pingchuan was startled, and immediately called the guards, thinking it was something unclean like a fox fairy.In the past few days, he has been very sensitive to this kind of thing. In fact, there was a reason why he thought so, because their house was extremely guarded, not to mention petty thieves, even wild cats couldn't get in.How did such a child get into such a deep inner courtyard?What did the guards who came in before eat?

A teenager who appears here can only be an evil thing! But when he went to see the child himself, he found that it was really a living person, not only breathing, but actually on the eaves. "Stinky boy, where did you come from?!" Ma Pingchuan liked children since he was a child. After seeing it clearly, he became curious. He grabbed the guard who was about to go up to catch the child, and raised his head to ask the child. The child didn't speak, but just pointed in one direction. Ma Pingchuan didn't realize at the time that the direction the child pointed was the direction of the cemetery.

"Do you know whose house this is? How dare you break in casually?" The more Ma Pingchuan looked at this kid, the more he felt that the kid looked clean, and couldn't help but feel happy. Only then did the child speak: "I know where your coffins have gone." Ma Pingchuan frowned, he was very annoyed to hear this topic, but just looking at the child, he couldn't figure out what was going on, if it was a Feng Shui master, saying this was nothing more than cheating money.But when a teenage child says such things, it makes people feel panicked. As a feudal lord, Ma Pingchuan certainly wouldn't be frightened by such a scene, and shouted: "Boy, who taught you this, those old men are cheating my money with these dicks, you brat dare to talk too much?"

The child was not afraid of him at all, and said calmly: "I came here, and I can take any money I want. I just came to tell you, I know where those coffins are." Ma Pingchuan thought so, he was already in the inner courtyard, and the counting room was on the side, he could go down to get money if he wanted it, if this kid could come here, he would definitely be able to get out without anyone noticing. His experience let him know that this child will not be too simple, so he suppressed his temper and asked, "Then tell me, where did the coffins in our Ma family ancestor's grave go?"

The child said: "You won't believe me when I say that, you might as well go with me to the cemetery." Ma Pingchuan glanced at the guard and then at the child. The kid just looked at him so lightly, which made him feel like an embarrassing provocation. This is not a kind of equal communication. Ma Pingchuan felt that this kid must have completely felt in his heart that he was not someone worth being afraid of, so he looked at him with such eyes.With the presence of guards on the sidelines, he thought about it, he would have been the first to know if there was any trouble in this town.What is he afraid of? Could someone plot against him in the cemetery?

He has never seen such a big storm. If someone wants to plot against him, it is just right to let his soldiers practice.If you are timid here, it would be a bit embarrassing to be watched by the guards. Ma Pingchuan said to the child: "Okay, then it's settled. When you come down, can you ride a horse?" The child didn't speak, and turned over directly from the eaves, his movements were as light as a civet cat, and he just nodded. Ma Pingchuan gathered a group of guards, got on his horse and took the children with him, and ran all the way to the vicinity of the grave.After going up to the cemetery, the child pointed to the withered and yellowed area around him, and said to him, "Look, this field is all dead."

"Blind people can see it." Ma Pingchuan said, "Little devil, you'd better not play tricks on me, or I will shoot you right away. Tell me, where did the coffin go?" "Look, what does this withered area look like?" the child said. Ma Pingchuan looked at the dry fields all around him, but he really didn't think about looking at the shape of this thing.But the mountain was not high enough to see what it looked like, so he gave a guard a wink.The guard turned over to a big tree next to him, reached the top of the tree in a few steps, looked around, and shouted: "Boss, it looks like a scorpion!" Ma Pingchuan frowned, thinking that he really had something to say, he rushed under the tree, gritted his teeth and climbed up, regardless of his image.When I came to the crown of the tree and looked down, I couldn't help but feel a little bit in my heart. Sure enough, the whole shape of these dead fields is like a huge scorpion with teeth and claws. He yelled down at the child, "What's going on?"
