Chapter 93 Fortune-telling blind man

Rushed to notify the militia platoon leader of the villagers said that the archaeological team in the old cadres died, Shirley Yang and I heard this, the brain is “buzzing” a sound, that old cadres are afraid of no one else, most likely is that we are looking for Prof. Sun, if he is dead, we are also going to go to carry on the momentum, how early not to die, not to die late, but in this tight joints to be in a hurry! How come he didn’t die sooner or later, but in this critical time?

Listen to the villagers of the militia platoon leader to continue to report the situation, it turned out to be an archaeological team came only two people, let the villagers with baskets to hang them into the coffin store in the cave to see what is actually underneath the place, go down for more than an hour, how to say hello also did not see the movement of the village mayor worried that they had an accident, they would like to choose a few brave villagers to go down to look for them, but the people are terrified, reminiscent of the legend of the coffin store, for a time People are terrified, no one dares to go down to die, saying that this hole eighty percent is leading to the netherworld, go down will not be able to come up.

Only the platoon leader of the militia, a strong man, once went down there, so the village chief had no choice but to send someone to find him back to help.

Militia platoon leader last time down to the hole in the ground, is also hard to pretend to be a good man, recall that cold cave, now standing in the sun are going to be trembling on the whole body, and now look at the village chief sent people to find themselves, may be intended to let him go down again, think of it, the militia platoon leader legs and stomach cramps, secretly screamed out a bitter, want to turn around to go back, but what can not say can not take a step leg.

Shirley Yang saw that this is an opportunity, they made a wink to me, I know in my heart, since Professor Sun’s life and death is not known in the hole in the ground, we want to see people alive, to see the body, we must take the risk of going down to save him up, this is a poor countryside, wait for other people to come to the rescue, Professor Sun must not be fortunate.

So I shook the militia platoon leader’s hand, said to him: “Comrade company commander, the original first to go down the tunnel hero is you ah, this kind of action, is not an idle generation, can shake hands with you I am really too honored.”

Although the militia platoon leader is a brown man, but very vain, otherwise he would not have made what militia martial law farce, see me so talk, heart greatly used.

I strike while the iron is hot, then said to the militia platoon leader: “I know that kind of hole in the ground, any you are a good man of iron, a long time can not resist the cold air in the hole, since you have already been under the hole in the ground exploration, we with the archaeological team of Professor Sun, that is, that fast balding headstrong old man, is an old acquaintance, why don’t you take us over, I walk on the way, of course, I this kind of action, one is to save my old friend, the other is to save my old friend. One is in order to save my old friend, two is also in order to deeply learn your heroic deeds, not only I personally want to learn from you, I also want to call on the whole country, all continue to carry out a bombardment to you to learn from the movement, so you quickly take us to the coffin store in the village.”

The militia platoon leader was a little difficult: “Brother, you see this …… is not that I refuse to let you into the village, just the organization has explained to the militia, today shall not make idle people go in.”

I listened to the heart of the fire, five within the smoke, it seems that this grandson is still fucking soft to do not hard to give the money to say good words still not allowed to enter, then I can with you nonchalant, so a hand grabbed the militia platoon leader in the hands of the stick, the face of the board up to him, said: “Do you see the lady behind me? She is the United States special agent, to tell you the truth, we are the Sino-US cooperation, if you delay our big event, she is going to inform our country’s foreign affairs ministry, let the organization of your platoon leader’s position to go, I say you the size of the mother is also a national cadres, how can you not see the eyes of the high and the low, do not you see that she is impatient? That’s because she’s looking at my face, if I didn’t respect you as a good man, I wouldn’t be saying these things to you, are you letting me or not letting us go over there?”

The militia platoon leader was confused and didn’t understand exactly what I meant by what I said, but when he heard that he could find some kind of pavilion and let the organization deal with him, his heart was immediately deflated, and he immediately agreed to take us into the village.

I took two dollars to give old man Liu’s grandson, let him buy candy to eat, told him not to play on the way back, and sent him home.

I and Shirley Yang did not dare to delay, hurriedly followed the militia platoon leader into the village of Shibi store behind the hillside, a turn over the hillside, in front of the eyes brightly, the original this Shibi store is located in a small basin surrounded by hills, this place is blessed with a very favorable geographic environment, warm in winter and cool in summer, the dry season, like this small basin due to the relationship between the barometric pressure, there will be no shortage of rainwater, the Yellow River flooding, and the surrounding densely packed hills against, formed a large number of the Yellow River. When the Yellow River floods, and the surrounding dense and dense hills to resist, forming a natural barrier, and the population of this monument store is really quite a lot, to say the least, there are also five or six hundred households, overlooking down from the hillside, the village is quite neat and orderly.

Not far ahead, there was a huge stone tablet standing on the hill. I had seen the stone tablet on Taishan Mountain back then, which was already very huge, and the stone tablet at the entrance of Shibidian Village was not much smaller than the stone tablet on Taishan Mountain. The writing on the stone tablet had long been gone, and the stone tablet looked like a big, bare stone slab from far away, and underneath the stone tablet, there was a headless powerful stone animal, which was like Gui Tuo (屃) which was a mythical animal that was responsible for carrying the tablet.

Shirley Yang and I were rushing into the village to rescue Prof. Sun. On our way, when we saw this strange monument, we couldn’t help but take a closer look at it, but we couldn’t figure out the origin of this monument.

Shirley Yang asked me: “This is not like a tombstone, you see this neighborhood like there is an ancient tomb look?”

I walked and looked around, here is a good environment, pleasant climate, suitable for living, but this is surrounded by scattered hills, not pattern, rows of the situation is not gas, not like there is the appearance of ancient tombs, even if there will not be the mausoleum of the princes and nobles, listen to the militia platoon leader said that the village coffin store under the discovery of the hole in the ground, inside the yin qi compelling, the first layer of the green brick pavement, the center of the rocky bed, and then underneath there is another hole in the sky, that will be what place? What kind of place could that be?

No matter what, now our only hope on Professor Sun, he is in the hole in the ground in the life and death is unknown, regardless of what is below the dragon pool and tiger’s den, I must find a way to save him up, at the same time and Shirley Yang together to speed up the footsteps forward.

Militia captain in front of the lead, came to the east end of the village stopped in front of a coffin store, which not only sells life, but also sells incense ingot paper horse, hanging in front of the door of the fast old plaque, surrounded by a lot of villagers watching the crowd, in front of the hall there are three or five big waisted militia hold, do not allow the crowd to enter, in fact, even if you let go in to look at it, no one dares to enter the gang are suspicious of the heart, there is a lot of discussion, some say that this hole is probably connected to the The Yellow River under the Dragon Palace, this alarm, can not be bad, a few days after the Yellow River Dragon King anger, to drown this square thousand miles; Some people say that the hole hole is connected to the netherworld, if dragged to the evening is not filled up and sealed, the netherworld of the hungry ghosts, ghosts, will have to run out of the hole in the scourge of the people; There is also an elementary school teacher in the village, said even more evil: “You donkeys into the understanding of a very You just know a superstitious six or four balls, that underneath the cold, cold, must be through the Antarctic, after a while the end of the earth’s ice water will pour over, drowning you superstitious donkeys into the.”

The village of several big and small minds, is anxious to turn around, the province sent two archaeologists, down the hole after no movement, pull up the basket is also empty, and no one dares to go down to explore a probe, back to the superiors blamed, it is difficult to exculpate.

The village chief and others are not paying attention to the place, see the militia platoon leader turned around, the platoon leader is the village famous bold, since the villagers do not dare to go down the hole, had to let the militia platoon leader to give the group a head.

Militia platoon leader did not wait for the village chief to issue orders, Shirley Yang and I introduced out, said that these two are the Sino-US Cooperation Institute, but also the archaeological team, and the following life and death of the two unknown archaeologists are recognized.

The village chief quickly put me in a tight embrace: “My comrade ah, we look forward to the stars like the moon, finally the organization of people to expect.” Then told a whole lot of difficulties faced, not the village committee do not want to save people, but the village people are scared by the legend of the coffin store, there was a platoon of militia, but from the beginning of 1979, the establishment has not been full, full count on the seven or eight rabble, have not received any formal training, encountered this kind of emergency, do not know how to cope with, since there is a comrade sent by the superiors, the militia will be all under your command. .

I understand the meaning of the village head, he is to put the blame on me, now I can not care about this with him, I went into the house to take a look at the crypt, the coffin store in the hall of the floor tiles have been pried open a lot, revealing a huge gap underneath, inside the black hole, can not see how deep it is, I do not have any guys with me, only with me and Shirley Yang go down to save people is very difficult, there must be someone to help.

So I first let the village head to send a fast-legged villagers, to the county to move help, no matter whether it is public security or armed police, and medical personnel, so that they come as soon as possible, the better, but the function of this countryside part of the county, once the operation needs to be layer after layer of instructions, level after level of approval, the efficiency of the very low, can not fully count on them to come in time.

I know Professor Sun and others have gone down time is not short, really if there is a danger, most likely already dead, can only pray for the blessing of the ancestors, they are only trapped in the bottom, so that we go down to rescue there is still a chance, but want to speed is not enough, this time can not be risky action, and these militiamen are a rabble, we must be ready in advance, if there is an accident again, it will be a big trouble.

Then let the militia platoon leader to gather all the militia, counting the militia platoon leader, a total of eight people, all carrying fire sticks and red cherry guns stand in a horizontal line, I stood in front of them and said: “Comrades, we have two comrades were killed down there, I’m going to take you now to save them, everyone listen to my command, don’t have too many worries, this is by no means what the netherworld down there, there may be an ancient place, it’s a place where you can go to the bottom. This is by no means a hellish place, it may be an ancient relic, I ask you to save them, it will not be a voluntary labor, each of you has a hundred dollars for labor, save the people, each person will give you another hundred, how about it? Do the comrades have any determination? Do you dare to go?”

All the militia at first are listless, do not want to go to risk, but the village head sent words, and can not not be ignored, there are a few people even intend to pretend that the stomach ache do not go, but heard later, said one person to give two hundred dollars of labor, immediately the spirit of a hundred times more, one by one, head held high and chest, the spirit of the outlook on the change for the first time, unanimously agreed.

I saw the money offensive worked, let the guys village armed department of a few rifles, and let the village chief prepared candles and flashlights, rural areas have the kind of bark made of whistles, one person issued a.

Shirley Yang reminded me, “This crypt has at least two layers or more, Professor Sun, they may want to see how much the layer below is damaged by air erosion, and what they encountered there, and under the two layers, I don’t know how much deeper it is, the underground environment of salts, moisture, gases, bacteria, and other chemical, biological, and encountered the air, there is a drastic change, the human body cause great harm, each of us should cover our mouth and nose with a wet towel again, light a torch, and immediately retreat if the torch goes out.”

I nodded yes, let everyone in accordance with Shirley Yang’s words to prepare, leaving three militia, in the upper part of the special responsible for lifting hanging baskets, in addition to let the village headman led the village committee of the people, hold the gate, do not let the irrelevant people come in.

See almost ready, I was about to go down first, suddenly saw a clamor outside the door, a blind man took advantage of the chaos squeezed in, this person wearing a pair of double yuan blind mirror, wearing a goatee, a hand holding a threadbare old book, the other hand holding a bamboo stick, anxiously looking for the coffin store in the crowd of people and so on: “Which one is in charge of? Quickly please come out and talk.”

I impatiently shouted to the village chief, “Aren’t we not allowed to let idle people in? Why did you let this blind man in, quickly throw him out, don’t delay our important business.”

The blind man heard my speaking bearing and gave me a blow with his stick, “Kid insolent, measure you also don’t know who the old man is, otherwise how dare you speak out of turn, the old man is here to save the lives of you and others …….”

The village chief also rushed over to me, said: “Comrade Hu, this is the county’s famous fortune-teller, last year my mother-in-law stepped on the fox fairy in the evil, thanks to this Mr. guidance, only to save his life, you listen to his words, must be right.”

I was anxious, anxious to know the whereabouts of Professor Sun’s life and death, so I cursed at the blind man, “Go to your grandfather, when we swept away all the cow ghosts and serpents, how did you not do it, then you hide where to go, and now appear to pretend to be a big tail wolf, I told you to hurry up and get up, do not get in the way with this.”

The blind man put his mouth aside, cold snort: “old man in the past in jiangxi to the head of the trigrams, there are robbed when there is a place to go, then there is not you this does not accumulate morality of the juniors, the old man can not bear to see these innocent lives are involved by you, a hair cut off in this place, so expressly to you, this crypt is not an unusual place can be comparable to, if you say out of the inside of the thing, afraid of putting you and so on raw scared to death. “
