Liao Zhiyuan nodded deeply when he heard this: "Brother Gang, we haven't seen each other for just one night. Why is your 'Lingtai Purple Fire' turned to ashes?"
The Purple Fire of the Lingtai is the Yang Fire on our forehead, which is the name of the New Bazi Gate.
It is also said that the purple fire of the Lingtai represents a person's longevity.
Once this ball of fire becomes weak and void, it means that the person's life span is about to end.
After hearing Liao Zhiyuan's explanation, Qi Zhigang was shocked: "Ah?! No!"
"I really didn't encounter anything evil. I just felt weak and very sleepy."
"I thought I was just tired from spending the night with grandpa yesterday..."
Just as Qi Zhigang was speaking, his father Qi Shan's voice suddenly came from the distance: "Gangzi, Gangzi, come back quickly, your second uncle seems to be dying!!"
"Ah?!" Qi Zhigang immediately stood up after hearing this and ran towards his old home as fast as he could.
Qi Zhigang's father's generation has three brothers in total, and his father Qi Shan is the youngest.
His uncle died a long time ago, and it is said that his death was very evil.
...
Because he was anxious, Qi Zhigang left in a hurry and didn't say much to Zhao Youliang.
In addition, Zhao Youliang and Liao Zhiyuan were not in the mood to offer gifts at this time.
Because they discovered that Qishan's "Lingtai Purple Fire" was also extremely weak, like a candle in the wind.
"How could this happen? Could it be that something dirty has entangled their whole family?"
After subconsciously muttering to himself, Zhao Youliang immediately denied what he said.
Because he did not find any evil aura in Qi Zhigang and his son, which meant that their sudden decrease in life span had nothing to do with dirty things.
But this makes it even weirder:
Qi Shan aside, Qi Zhigang's character would never do anything harmful to nature, so how could he suddenly "lose his life"?
Besides, he is also a doctor, the kind of good doctor who is not interested in making money but just wants to cure every patient.
With the blessing of this profession, there is no reason for such a situation to occur.
Zhao Youliang and Liao Zhiyuan discussed for a while but still had no results, so they had no choice but to visit Old Liu Tou first.
Because of his father's relationship, Liao Zhiyuan is considered the "grandson" of this paper-making master, so he was particularly cordial after meeting him.
After telling about the strange things that happened to Qi's father and son, Lao Liu couldn't figure out the reason for a while.
He just warned Zhao Youliang and the others: first, be careful about knocking down the walking corpses;
Secondly, if you want to save Qi Zhigang, you'd better go to his home and have a look.
After all, there is the matter of "suppressing the saint" first, and there is the matter of "gathering evil formation" later. Qi Zhigang's current situation is really dangerous.
...
Time flew by and it turned into night. Zhao Youliang took Liao Zhiyuan to the barbecue stall to help.
During this period, they originally wanted to visit Qi Zhigang's home, but after making a phone call, they learned that Qi Zhigang had accompanied his second uncle to the hospital.
It is said that Qi Zhigang's second uncle is seriously ill and is currently trying to save him.
"The second child of the Qi family is sick? Are you still hospitalized for rescue?" After Zhao Youliang hung up the phone, Li Mao asked from the side.
"It shouldn't be!"
"Quantum and Zhiyuan, you two don't know that Uncle Zhigang has a strong body!"
"Let's put it this way, when he bullies neighbors and curses, his voice is louder than that of us young people."
"Good guy, those who didn't know better thought they were shouting with a loudspeaker!"
Li Mao's words immediately resonated with the people eating barbecue around him, who had obviously been scolded by his second uncle Qi Zhigang.
However, these foreign residents were kind-hearted, and no one gloated about their misfortune, and no one cursed Uncle Qi Zhigang.
I just feel that the town is getting more and more evil, everyone should be careful...
Just as everyone was talking softly, a scream came from far away.
It sounds like that place is in the direction of Wu Carpenter's house.
"No! Did something happen again?!"
Zhao Youliang and Liao Zhiyuan glanced at each other and immediately ran towards Carpenter Wu's house with the people eating barbecue.
Before they could run, they saw a middle-aged woman running towards them.
His face was pale, and his face was full of terror.
After seeing the crowd, he immediately collapsed to the ground, shouting in horror: "People are dead, people are dead again!"
"Old Wu's wife also committed suicide and hanged herself in red clothes!!"
"Does she want to become a ghost and come back to take revenge on someone?!"
At this point, I would like to explain to you old readers why committing suicide while wearing red clothes will turn you into a bad person.
Red represents happy events in customs, such as weddings.
On the contrary, white is used to decorate funerals, make mourning clothes, etc.
Therefore, festive colors such as red are taboo for death-related clothing.
According to folklore, if one commits suicide wearing red clothes, there will be no black and white impermanence to extradite him, that is to say, the ghost will never be reincarnated and will stay in the world forever.
The ghost who commits suicide is already very resentful, and coupled with the ending of never being reincarnated...the result can be imagined.
...
The police in the small town were dispatched very quickly. Before Zhao Youliang and Liao Zhiyuan could see the specific situation, they sealed up the carpenter Wu's house.
Among the police officers, Zhao Youliang saw a familiar figure - policeman Xiao Zhao.
Although he was wondering why he didn't cooperate with the armed police on duty in the prison as promised, under the current circumstances, it was difficult for Zhao Youliang to ask.
I could only use my eyes to signal policeman Xiao Zhao to be more careful.
After all, the "man" dragging the sack has been pestering him.
From a distance, policeman Xiao Zhao obviously understood what Zhao Youliang meant, and nodded repeatedly with a sad face.
Soon after Zhao Youliang returned to the barbecue restaurant, he was greeted by Director Zhou of the Urban Management Office and a group of staff.
"Quantum, it's still the old rule: according to our missed meal supplement standard, the per capita consumption is forty."
"We brought our own wine!"
While Zhao Youliang agreed repeatedly, Director Zhou of the Urban Management Office spoke again.
"Quantum, do you think it's evil? Today we went to level the mass graves, and we actually dug out more than a hundred dead people's bones in a big pit."
"These bones are all missing arms and legs, as if they had been gnawed by something."
"Many of the bones still have teeth marks on them!"
After Director Zhou finished speaking, one of the team members said: "Not just bones, but also many guns were dug out!"
"The police came and identified it and said it was a '9th or 13th Liao Dynasty rifle'. It's an antique!"
9. The Liao 13th-year-old rifle was a weapon used by my country’s warlords during the period of melee.
The arsenal of "Fengjun" developed our own domestic rifle based on the German Mauser 98/22 rifle and the Japanese Type 38 rifle.
It was finalized in 1924, which was also the 13th year of the Republic of China. The gun was finalized as the 13th year of the Liao Dynasty.
Also because the general manager of the arsenal at that time was Han Linchun, the gun also had the nicknames "Made by Han Linchun" and "Han's 79 Rifle".
