Chapter 20: The Shipwreck
We just returned home more than an hour, Lin Bachan less words like a strange person, Fatty Liu also seems to know what is going on, only I am anxious in that side of the ball, but after thinking about it half a day I do not seem to know what I am worried about.
We want to enter this pagoda want is my uncle that ghost baby, Mr. Zhai is to break open the feng shui eye, these things are actually not conflicting, but the feeling of being preempted by someone makes me very difficult, the most important thing is that I myself is also very worried about the big buck teeth they, after all, I have not been able to go to frankly face the deaths of the people under me.
What I didn't expect was that Mr. Zhai came after a while, or came alone, looking a bit flustered, I went up and grabbed him by the collar, cursing, "What the fuck are you doing here?!"
"San two, you calm down. I know that this matter I did not do it generously, but after all, I think that in this matter, we are not very conflicting, even if I enter the pagoda, that baby corpse is also of little use to me." Mr. Zhai said.
"Then what are you doing here? Let me ask you first, did you get Big Buck Tooth and the others killed?" I said.
"No, I didn't have to kill anyone, you let go of me first, let's have a talk." Mr. Zhai said.
I huffed and let go of him, saying, "You better give an answer that satisfies me."
Mr. Zhai smiled sarcastically and said, "There is a misunderstanding in this matter, the main thing now is that I found your ship, so I came to say something to you."
I stood up at once, this could be said to be my greatest concern at the moment, and asked, "Where is it?"
"Just underwater. And your men, all still on board." He said looking at me.
When I heard that, I got angry and wanted to rush up and hit him, but Lin Bachan reached out and stopped me, asking, "What's in the water?"
"Wear, and corpses, lots of corpses, the problem is, those corpses will still walk. But they don't have heads!" Mr. Zhai himself was a cultivator. But I actually saw panic on his face now.
But I also understood in an instant that Mr. Zhai had come to us, not that he had found the boat and Big Buck Tooth's and their corpses to report to me, it was that they had encountered something in the water that they couldn't deal with, and to use Lin Bachan's words, they couldn't get in.
"Tell me about the tread." Lin Bachan asked.
"The tower is normal, can't see anything, it's been inside the sandy water for a long time, and it's rotting very badly." Zhai said.
"I think you understand what I'm asking you, and you know what I want to know." Lin Bachi opened his eyes to look at Mr. Zhai, his gaze alone was enough to make people tremble with fear.
"Eighteen …… eighteen layers ……," Mr. Zhai's face turned a little white as he spoke.
"What? Eighteen layers? Fuck his grandpa Guo Zhongyong, I always thought he was bold enough, I didn't expect him to be so bold!!!" Immediately after hearing this, Fatty's entire body jumped up and screamed.
"What, what does eighteen layers mean?" I was wondering.
"What did you think of when you heard the three words eighteen layers?" Fatty said.
I froze, what did I think of? I couldn't help but ask, "Eighteen layers of hell?"
Fatty clapped his hands and said, "Yes, that's it, eighteen underground layers of the Underworld, this is a saying, but to build the pagoda into eighteen layers, bury it underground, and keep ghosts in captivity in the pagoda, how the hell did your fucking Great Grandpa's head grow to come up with this audacious ghost idea? He still wants the ghost babies inside to become Buddha?"
Too much terminology for me to understand, but the pagoda, the eighteen layers of hell, ghosts and babies, this is something unrelated to the wind and horses, but was hard to pull into a piece, I feel very strange, I feel unusually entangled, the Buddha and the ghosts, how can this motherfucker coexist?
Fatty Liu looked at Lin Bachan and said, "Mr. Big Yin Yang Master, what should we do about this, you say?"
Lin Bachan stood up and said, "Let's go, go over and take a look before we say anything, I actually don't know what the hell is going on here."
-Our group of people once again rushed to the reservoir, to the sand pumping pit, the entire sand pumping pit because of the water surface of the huge cold above even the silk of the white gas, standing on the shore I feel that the temperature here with other places on the lower side of a lot.
Mr. Zhai's speedboat was at the side, Lin Bachan and Fatty Liu put on their diving suits, Fatty Liu asked me, "San Liang, do you want to go down and take a look?"
I nodded and said, "Cheng, it's fine to go down and take a look."
At this time, Mr. Zhai is with the old man Huang called notice this side of the situation, I did not stop, hit on it, the main Mr. Zhai's face is not very good, it seems to be unable to manage this side of the situation, after wearing a diving suit, I will not dive itself, but looked at Lin Bachan and Fatty Liu drew a gourd inverted and jumped into the water began to dive, although through the diving suit, I still feel the water's ice-cold, Lin Bachan in the front, Fatty in the back, I followed the water, and the water is cold. Lin Bachian is at the front, Fatty Liu is at the back, and I'm right behind him.
In the water, with a searchlight illumination, you can see the underwater a stupa-shaped shadow, if you don't know this is a stupa, even thought this is the Monkey King's sea pin it, and in the tower next to me, I saw that my sand pumping boat, is calmly trips in the bottom of the water.
Lin eight thousand gave us a gesture, signaling us towards the sand pumping boat over there, I swam hard, the bottom of the water relative to the bottom of the sea after all is still much shallower, soon on the sand pumping boat, I pulled the railing and rope climbing on it, the sand pumping boat there is a lounge, the door is closed, Lin eight thousand went up to the lounge pulled open the iron door, dived in, I also rushed to follow up, into the time when I was startled! I was shocked when I went in.
The entire lounge, densely packed, is seven floating corpses, it is the big buck teeth, a few of them, lounge things are still basically, the door has not been unlocked, I pulled the big buck teeth, to see his face is calm, closed his eyes as if he was sleeping, the heart of the question, how did the ship sink, and how did they die?
Even if the cabin leaks, they also have time to run out of the right, in the end, what is the reason, so that they do not know how to escape, followed the sand pumping boat together with the sinking of the bottom of the water?
I am wondering, Fatty Liu came over and pulled over the body of the big buck teeth, looked through it, twisted the head of the big buck teeth and pointed to me to see, I looked from Fatty Liu's finger, and saw the neck of the big buck teeth.
On his neck, there was a small palm print, a patch of black and blue!
I pulled the other few corpses floating around me, and without exception, each had one of these palm prints on their necks, which now made the cause of their deaths very clear – they were strangled and then thrown in this lounge, and then followed the boat down.
These palm prints were almost all the same, very small, which reminded me at once of the little boy in the green jacket, the boy I should have called uncle, had he been strangled to death by him?
A fierce underwater so a while, I am very difficult to see these corpses I also feel unnatural, I thought of going up, who knows this time, Fatty Liu suddenly pulled me a bit, hiding to the side, and even the side of his mouth is no longer bubbles!
I want to ask, but he held me down, want to cover my mouth, but with the water lungs obviously can not cover, but I have realized that there may be things that I did not see happen, looked back, almost off the gas!
Only see in the lounge door, do not know when stood a little boy, wearing a green jacket, a pale face, this and I saw in the dream seems to be so different, only feel his head is very big, the green jacket, but also with the Shouzhi pattern.
That little boy just looked at us, his face showed a caricatured smile, he did not rush in, but all of a sudden closed the iron door of the lounge!
Damn he was trying to smother us all inside!
Fatty Liu rushed to pull the door, but realized that this iron door could no longer be pulled, he kept gesturing in the water, not to me, but to Lin Bachan, but at this time, Lin Bachan stood in front of the window of the lounge and did not move.
I walked over to look out along the lounge and saw dense figures outside.
These were all people, but without heads.
On these people, they were wearing clothes from the Qing Dynasty, from the clothes alone without looking at the head you could tell that some of these people were palace maids, others were commonly dressed as eunuchs, they were divided into two teams, one for the eunuchs and one for the palace maids, and they were walking slowly in the water around this stupa.
Like living, void and ethereal.
The eunuchs walked very steadily, the palace maidens seem to be dancing, I suddenly remembered my grandfather's notes in the princess tomb of those palace maidens, this is all necessarily linked, but the immediate very strange feeling.
This feeling is indescribable – when you see a ghost, you will chant Amitabha Buddha for help, and even feel that the whole world is a ghost, the temple is at least a safe place because there is a god inside, but this is a pagoda, and the pagoda is surrounded by headless corpses dancing.
It gave the feeling that the temple was all occupied by ghosts.
Lin Bachan watched for a while, those headless eunuchs and palace maidens disappeared into the water before he turned back, ran over and kicked open the iron door that Fatty couldn't pull open, I thought he would go inside the stupa to see what's going on, but who knew that he started to dive up.
When we got on the boat, Fatty cursed and said, "Lin Bachan, don't you want to get rid of the devil? Why didn't you kill that ghost baby when you saw him? Breaking the eye of Feng Shui that way?"
Lin Bachiqian made his way to the bow of the boat and said softly, "If you kill him, the water in this reservoir will be ruined. This child, the origin is not simple."
