Chapter 286: Customs


"What's going on?"

Back in the yard, Dachun asked with squinting eyes.

"Hey, keep the show, keep the show."

Ergou was still a little unfinished and didn't notice the expressions on the three of us' faces at all.

"That's the third brother's new wife.

After two days of training, her temper has softened a bit.

The strong one is enough to taste.

The last one took more than half an hour, and that's what it feels like."

Ergou talked more and more enthusiastically, and his eyebrows were beaming.

When he raised his head, he found that the three of us had sullen faces, and said a little sarcastically: "This custom has been popular with us for decades, you don't want to see it outside."

Dachun snorted coldly.

What Ergou said is true.

We are unable to change this custom for the time being.

Since entering the mountain, the mobile phone signal has been lost, and it is impossible to communicate with the outside.

There are at least 100 people in Lingshan Village.

If the three of us really do something extraordinary, we will have to be destroyed here.

"Take us around the village," I ordered, changing the topic.

"Okay."

Ergou nodded excitedly, rubbed his hands and led us in front.

Lingshan Village runs east-west and occupies the ridge of this hill, with about fifty yards.

The population is around two hundred.

The village chief's house is located at the far east end.

It is similar to the courtyard where we live.

It also has the main house plus the east and west wings.

There are nine people in the family.

The man who just got married was called Third Brother.

He is a man in his forties.

The bride just bought it three days ago and spent 4,000 yuan.

I also met two children on the road, wearing jackets with exposed cotton, their little black and red faces were full of alertness, and the most important thing was.

The child's Yintang is also black and shiny.

I reached out and wanted to touch the child's eyebrows to feel what the yin energy was all about.

Ergou grabbed my hand, his expression changed, and he hurriedly took out a few steel coins from his pocket, handed them to the two children, and said, "Go, go play somewhere else."

I looked at Ergou in surprise.

I just wanted to touch the child’s forehead.

Is he like this?

"It cannot be touched.

According to our custom, if an outsider touches the child, the hand that touched the child will be chopped off.

Even I will suffer."

Ergou explained with lingering fear and a trembling voice.

"Tell me what other customs there are in your village."

I suddenly became interested, took out ten dollars from my pocket, and handed it over.

When he saw the money, Ergou's eyes suddenly lit up.

He put the money away and started talking to us.

The first one I talk about is the bride making trouble in the bridal chamber.

This custom was passed down more than 20 years ago.

The first time it happened was when the village chief's son took a wife, and he advocated it, which led to the commotion.

With the village chief taking the lead, the rest is much simpler.

To put it more evil, who doesn’t want to listen to the corner and see the bridal chamber?

After more than 20 years, a tradition has been formed, and there is also a rule.

Having a wedding ceremony must be done at noon.

The second custom is that you are not allowed to touch the baby's forehead.

Except for your own adults, anyone who touches the baby's forehead will have his or her hand chopped off.

The specific reason is that it is difficult to feed babies, especially in their village.

Children's souls are unstable and can be easily touched.

Several babies lost their souls because of this.

I found this out from Mr.

Yin Yang.

The third custom is to at least not go out after eight o'clock in the evening, even if you have to go out.

It is best to go out in groups, because this place is close to an ancient battlefield, and ghosts come out to cause trouble at night.

If there are few people and weak yang energy, it is easy to be killed.

"It's true, there are still ghosts asking for their lives."

Dachun pretended not to believe it, with a look of disdain on his face.

"You will know in the evening."

Ergou's tone suddenly became erratic, and his eyes became gloomy.

After saying this, he changed back to the wretched and money-grubbing look before, and continued to teach us about the customs of his village.

There are eighteen customs, big and small, and nothing else matters.

Mainly the first three items, the rest are about various festivals and various foods.

I found that one characteristic of these customs is that no matter what custom they are, they can play a role.

That is to arouse the spirit of resentment.

For example, it is normal to eat rice dumplings during the Dragon Boat Festival.

When we arrive in their village, the first rice dumplings steamed out of the pot are dedicated to the ancestral mountain gods.

This is not unusual, but the key point is.

The first pot of rice dumplings is mixed with the blood of the new daughter-in-law, which represents the new daughter-in-law's integration into the village.

Originally, most of the new wives in Lingshan Village were bought from traffickers.

Adding to the commotion during the wedding days, the resentment in my heart became great.

Coupled with the bloodletting and steaming of rice dumplings, the ancestors and mountain gods were not satisfied with me.

I know, I just know that this kind of rice dumplings may attract the ghosts wandering in the mountains.

This has been happening all year round, and resentment has been boiling within Lingshan Village.

This may be why Wang Ergou said he didn't go out after eight o'clock in the evening.

At night.

It’s strange that things can go quiet in the village.

After going around in a circle, it was almost four o'clock when I came back, and the sky was already dark at this time.

Er Gouzi glanced at the sky and was about to leave, seeing how restless he looked.

It seemed like there was something scary in the yard.

I gave Dachun a wink, and Dachun grabbed him and forced him to stay here to eat.

However, I noticed that all he ate were the cooked food and bread we brought.

As long as it's something made with well water.

He didn't eat a bite.

After eating, the sky became darker.

Ergou was like an anxious rabbit, restless and wanted to go home.

"Why are you going back?

What you said is so scary.

Just stay here with us for one night today."

Dachun and I winked, held Ergou's shoulders and said with a smile.

"No, no, absolutely not."

Ergou suddenly jumped up.

If the face hadn't been washed for a long time and was covered with black paint, I guess it must be as white as paper.

"Why not?"

I asked with a smile.

Ergou rolled his eyes, clapped his hands, and said, "I have rabbits at home.

I haven't fed them for a day.

I want to go back and feed the rabbits."

"Feed the rabbit" I raised my voice and looked at Ergou teasingly.

He was restless.

If Dachun and I hadn't suppressed him forcefully on the left and right, he would have run away long ago.

"Since you want to feed the rabbit, go back and remember to come early tomorrow."

I smiled and let go of the hand pressing his shoulder, and raised my hand outward.

Ergou didn't seem to expect that I would let him go so easily.

After taking one look at me, he turned around and ran away.

He was bumped by the door threshold and fell like a dog.

"There's definitely something wrong with this yard, especially the well."

As soon as Ergou left, the faces of the three of us fell.

I knew exactly what Ergou had planned.

He had no intention of letting the three of us walk out of this yard alive.

Both he and the village chief behind him have the same calculation.

In their eyes, as long as we live in this house, we will not survive tonight.

"Let's go and see what's different about that well."

Dachun rubbed his hands, ignored Sister Pomegranate's obstruction, walked straight to the edge of the well, and looked down.

Under the bright yellow light of the flashlight, the well wall looked no different.

It was still as cold and damp as it was during the day.

It’s still unclear what the situation at the bottom of the well is, but one thing is certain.

So far, we have not found any abnormalities.

There are no abnormalities in other parts of the yard.

The east and west wing rooms are similar to other yards.

The yin energy is only released slowly.

This is the yin energy emitted automatically by the mountain and has nothing to do with being sneaky.

"Damn it.

Lingshan Village is more evil than other places."

After checking a lot, we couldn't find a single hair.

Dachun scratched his head and said with some surprise.

"Then wait, it's not six o'clock yet.

Didn't Ergou say you can't go out after eight o'clock?

Even if there is an abnormal situation, it must be after eight o'clock, just wait."

I thought for a while, then turned back to the main room, sat in the hall, lit the oil lamp, and the rest was waiting.

There is no electricity in Lingshan Village, so oil lamps are used for lighting at night.

The three of us sat around, chatting and waiting.

Ma Junyao and Ruohan were gone, and the little girl came out of the talisman and chatted with us from time to time.

"Coming" At eight o'clock sharp, there was a sudden splashing sound in the yard, and there was movement in the well.

Dachun stood up excitedly, staring at the well.

I also became nervous, held the two talismans in my hands, and stared coldly at the well
