The story starts with the heavy rain a few days ago...
In the northwest of Lianghe Town, in the outer suburbs of the town, there are about a hundred families living sporadically.
In theory, this should be a small village.
But because this place is right next to Lianghe Town - you can even see it directly from the teaching building in Lianghe District, so it is almost considered a part of the town.
Most of the hundreds of families living here have the surname Bai. It is also a flat valley surrounded by several peaks - this kind of terrain is called "Bazi" in the Sichuan and Chongqing area - so it is also called Baijiaba.
There was a man named Bai Fugui in Baijiaba, and he lived up to his name. He was indeed quite wealthy!
Because he left the relationship with his boss a few years ago, he also opened a canning factory on the outskirts of town. I purchased some fruits from Boss Duan’s orchard and directly processed them into cans for wholesale sale.
It is said that business is booming!
Not only are they sold to Fubei County, but supermarkets in several neighboring counties and cities also come to him to wholesale canned fruits.
Bai Fugui also took this opportunity to become a wealthy man in the town.
Now that you have money, you naturally want to build a house!
After all, Bai Fugui is not young and has not read many books. He is a relatively traditional person. I’m not used to buying commercial residential buildings developed by real estate companies...
He felt that with so many people crowded into one building, it looked like the canned food he made! It makes me uncomfortable just thinking about it.
It's better to live comfortably in the big house I built in the suburbs - just like Boss Duan's [Duan Family House].
Therefore, Bai Fugui planned to expand his current house.
The area of the homestead he originally allocated was very large, but because he had little money when he was young, he did not even use one-fifth of the allocated homestead area.
Just right now!
This is both legal and compliant, and you can live comfortably!
But maybe his luck was spent on setting up factories and doing business...
The big house I like had just been built when it encountered a severe rainstorm that had never happened in a century - it rained for three days and three nights!
Because the terrain of Baijiaba is relatively high, it was not flooded by the rising flood from the river.
The problem is... the terrain of Baijiaba itself is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and heavy rains for days directly lead to flash floods!
Although the scale was not large, it did not cause any casualties.
But the back hill of Bai Fugui's house, the side close to his newly built house, was directly hit by a flash flood and collapsed.
All kinds of gravel and soil rolled down and smashed the fence in his backyard.
The yard was a mess.
Originally this was nothing. As long as people are fine, great things are just a little more money spent. Just hire workers to clean up the yard and then build a new fence.
But something happened that shocked, scared and gave Bai Fugui a headache.
When the hired workers were cleaning up the gravel and soil accumulated in the backyard, they actually found a coffin inside!
Obviously, this coffin should have been buried inside the mountain.
When the mountain collapsed and landslided due to continuous heavy rains, hundreds of tons of sand and gravel rolled down together and fell into the yard of Bai Fugui's house...
This is very troublesome!
After all, ordinary people are very taboo about "coffins".
If it wasn't the coffin of a relative, I would almost never look at it without looking at it. Even if I took a second look at it, I would feel scared!
What's more, this kind of unknown old coffin rolled out from the mountain with a landslide and had been buried underground for who knows how long!
Ordinary people's scalps will tingle and their skin will get goosebumps just by thinking about it.
What's more, he slid directly into his own yard?
Bai Fugui's mood was like a collapse!
So after he got the news from his family on the phone, he didn't even discuss a large wholesale order worth millions. After confessing to the client who came from afar, he quickly drove back to his home in Baijiaba from the suburbs at the other end of the town...
Entering the house, passing through the front yard and atrium, and arriving at the backyard.
As expected, Bai Fugui saw the workers gathered in a circle, whispering with fear on their faces.
His wife and three children were also watching from a distance.
"What's going on? Why is there a coffin rolling down from the landslide? Give way and let me take a look."
Bai Fugui said loudly.
Although he was a little frightened in his heart, he must show calmness and calmness in front of outsiders - this is also the principle of doing things as a businessman.
When the workers saw that their master was back, they all made way for them.
The foreman breathed a sigh of relief and hurried forward to speak.
"Boss Bai, you're back! Take a look, that thing is placed in the center of the yard. We brothers were cleaning up a few big rocks and a pile of sticky red sand when they found something wrapped in it. Yes. It looks scary..."
Bai Fugui didn't say much and looked in the direction of the foreman's finger.
really!
I saw a coffin placed in the center of my backyard.
Bai Fugui could tell at a glance that this thing was different from ordinary coffins!
After all, it is impossible for an ordinary coffin to be densely wrapped with thin black threads!
It is also impossible that the coffin lid is covered with all kinds of strange dark red runes - although I can't understand what they are, the sinister feeling makes people's eyelids jump.
Even more impossible... there are some weird bones inlaid on the lid of the coffin that make people's heads tingle!
It’s no wonder that after the workers dug out the coffin from the rubble and sand, they immediately didn’t dare to touch it anymore and all hid far away.
After all, they are not stupid, this thing is very evil at first glance!
It's bad enough that a coffin normally buried on a mountain landslides and falls into your home.
What's more, it's such a weird and evil object?
Bai Fugui, led by the foreman, gingerly circled the coffin at a distance of about one meter. I probably observed it.
He thought for a moment and asked tentatively.
"Foreman Liu, in addition to the normal salary, I will give you an additional five thousand yuan. You can find a few brothers to carry this coffin out and dispose of it. How about it?"
In 2000, five thousand yuan was not a small amount of money!
It is very tempting, especially for those casual workers who do strenuous work. Even the foreman will feel very excited.
This coffin doesn't look big, even two circles smaller than an ordinary coffin. It is estimated that six people can carry it away relatively easily...
In this way, each person can get more than 800 yuan.
It’s the salary they earned from more than two months of hard work!
A trace of desire and surprise flashed across Foreman Liu's face, but he quickly regained his senses and shook his head desperately.
"No, no! Boss Bai, it's really not that the brothers are unwilling to help. If it's something else, we'll help take it away for free. It's just a matter of our efforts."
"But this thing is so evil! I, Old Liu, have always been quite courageous. In the past, I sometimes rushed to my relatives' houses in the countryside, and even walked alone at night. I was not afraid of passing through graves."
"I don't know why, but when I saw this coffin, I felt inexplicably tight in my chest and panicked. It seemed like something terrible would happen in the next second!"
"It's not just me, the rest of the brothers feel the same way. So this coffin is definitely not something ordinary people can touch. I also suggest that Boss Bai don't touch it yourself. Hurry up and find some knowledgeable masters. Come and solve it. For example, you should have heard of Cao Coffinmaker in the east part of the town..."
Bai Fugui is not the kind of person who is stubborn and refuses to listen to advice.
He thought what Foreman Liu said made sense.
So we no longer forced these workers to help, but asked them to temporarily stop working.
Then I was going to find a master to solve the problem of this strange and vicious coffin that was washed out by a landslide and fell into the yard of my home.
As a wealthy man in the town, Bai Fugui has a relatively wide network of contacts and information.
He inquired about it and found out that the "Coffinmaker Cao" at the coffin shop in Dongtou, Zhendong, was really good, but he generally did not have direct contact with people he was not familiar with.
Instead, you need to go through a coffin bearer named Daniu as an intermediary, and then you can take the path of Cao Coffin Maker...
So Bai Fugui hurriedly passed through some people he knew, and within an hour he found Daniel and the four of them.
When business came to the door, Daniu and the others certainly had no reason to refuse, so they went naturally.
When we arrived at the backyard of Bai Fugui's house... we had just stepped over the threshold, but we hadn't reached the place yet. His expression suddenly changed!
Because it was still dusk and evening, the sun hadn't completely set yet - it was still half hanging outside the mountains, so it wasn't completely dark either.
But Daniel could already feel a cold, sinister, ferocious, and evil aura coming towards his face!
He could even smell a rotten smell in his nose.
Bai Fugui next to him was still crossing his arms and caring about Daniel.
"Why do you feel so cold tonight? You're wearing two thick clothes, and they both feel chilly. Brother Niu, you won't get cold in one like this, right?"
Daniel waved his hand and replied.
"Boss Bai, don't worry. We have a strong temper and always eat yang-heat tonics, so we almost never catch a cold. And this coldness is not because of the weather. I guess it is probably caused by the coffin. .”
"So Boss Bai, just wait here, don't go in with us. Otherwise, I'm worried that even if there is no specific direct danger. But just this rotten evil spirit will make you uncomfortable, affect your health, and even Maybe you’ll have bad luck in the future!”
When Bai Fugui heard this, he was frightened on the spot.
At the same time, I was secretly glad that I listened to Foreman Liu and decisively found someone knowledgeable to handle the matter.
Otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous!
He thanked Daniel again and again and was very grateful.
When Dan Niu, Er Gou and the others entered the innermost part of the backyard and took a close look at the coffin, they all gasped!
Because the coffin actually had "three characteristics" that the coffin bearers least wanted to see at the same time.
It can be called a truly vicious and evil coffin!
The first characteristic is [the coffin sinks heavily into the ground]...
As the name suggests, the coffin will become heavier and heavier on its own, crushing the ground and slowly sinking into the ground.
A normal coffin, no matter how heavy it is, is unlikely to crush or sink the ground it is placed on!
For example, the coffin in front of me has sunk at least an inch and a half deep - as if it is embedded in the ground.
It was definitely not like this when it was first washed down by a flash flood and a landslide. Otherwise, the workers and Bai Fugui would definitely notice during the day.
Therefore, the ominous sign of the coffin sinking should have only started in this short period of time in the evening!
The second characteristic is...
