Chapter 198 The Awe of Water

The three of them dug for another two days at the foot of the Howling Slope hill. Finally, Chen Ziyang threw the shovel on the ground and said to the other two: "Stop digging, it's pointless to dig any further. gone."

During these three days, three people dug a huge deep pit within 20 meters of this place.In this big pit, countless urn coffins were piled up densely. Looking at the piles of urn coffins piled up next to each other like hills in the big pit, several people were deeply shocked.

These urn coffins are neatly stacked, one layer is stacked on top of the other, the closer to the ground there are fewer urn coffins, and the further you dig down, the more urn coffins are stacked on each layer. The shape of a pyramid.According to Chen Ziyang's estimate, the seven or eight urn coffins they dug out before are the apex of this pyramid made of urn coffins.

There are more than 30 urn coffins on the third floor, and hundreds of them on the fourth floor. Chen Ziyang tried to dig on the edge of the urn coffins on the fourth floor to the fifth floor, and found that the fifth floor The urn jar should be more.It seems that the urn coffin containing the mysterious ball should be the top one of this pyramid.

It is no wonder that there is a big deep ditch where cattle and people can fall in. The soil in the gaps between these urns is very loose. After years of rain, the soil under the surface will flow along the urns. The gaps between the urns piled downwards, thus forming an interlayer without soil above the pile of urns.

In the past few days, several people also picked up some urn coffins and smashed them, and each urn coffin contained the bones of a child.It's just that these bones are preserved in different degrees. The deeper the buried bones in the urn coffin, the better the preservation, and the closer to the ground, the higher the degree of decay. Some even only have a few thighs left Bones and skulls.

Although all three of them were wearing gloves, three or four days of intense physical labor caused blisters on their hands. After the blisters were broken, blood blisters appeared. After the blood blisters burst, the flesh and blood on the palms Gloves were glued together and it was very difficult for them to remove them.Sometimes, just the act of taking off the gloves makes several people grin their teeth and sweat profusely.

The breaking point should not be here.These two days, Chen Ziyang was tired and stupid, and urgently needed a change of environment to rethink the whole thing.So he suggested to Nice that he wanted to find a place to take a bath, firstly, the three of them could go there to get rid of the smell of sweat on their bodies, and secondly, they could clear their minds.

The three got into the car, and under the guidance of Nice, they drove to the edge of a river. The river is not very wide, only about ten meters wide. The river is very clear, and sometimes you can see it directly To the piles of small fish swimming in the river.

Originally, Chen Ziyang and Shan Shishuai wanted to jump into the river and take a bath, but Nisi stopped their idea as soon as they said it.Inner Mongolians have an innate respect for the rivers and lakes on the grasslands.Bathing, washing clothes, and washing other dirty things directly in the river or lake are considered disrespectful to rivers and lakes.

The Inner Mongolians believe that it is the nourishment of the river on the grassland that the grass grows here, forming the grassland, and the grassland feeds the cattle and sheep, enabling the Inner Mongolian people to survive on this grassland.Therefore, rivers and lakes are like gods in their eyes, and they are the mothers who bring them vitality.

The two also respected this custom, so they took a large plastic basin from the car, scooped out water from the river with the basin, and the three of them scrubbed the dirt off their bodies by the river.After taking a bath, Chen Ziyang suddenly relaxed and lay down by the river, looking at the blue sky and white clouds on the grassland, breathing the fresh air here, feeling very comfortable.The blue sky here looks so close, sometimes Chen Ziyang feels that he can touch the blue sky by stretching out his hand.

Taking out the mysterious ball again, Chen Ziyang looked at it in front of his eyes.No matter where he goes, he always carries this ball with him when he digs an urn coffin or when he sleeps. He just wants to devote all his time to deciphering the secret of this ball at any place and any time.

Shuai Ushishi, who had been working for several days, was in a good mood looking at this beautiful scenery, so he said to Chen Ziyang: "I don't know if this place is considered a treasure of geomantic omen, even if it is, I hope that after my death, If you can be buried here, it doesn't matter what Feng Shui is or not, as long as you like what you like is the best, in my opinion, this place is much better than those dragon caves."

Chen Ziyang understands the meaning of Umbrella Shishuai, the one that suits him is the best.Hearing Umbrella Shuai talk about feng shui, Chen Ziyang thought of those urn coffins piled up like a mountain. What are these urn coffins for?Why are there so many children dying here?And who put them together for burial?What is the purpose of doing this?

Thinking of this, Chen Ziyang suddenly sat up from the grass, and his actions startled Shuai Shi beside him. "Old umbrella, what did you just say?"

"Ah? I wonder if this place is considered a treasure of geomantic omen. I hope to be buried here after I die."

Hearing what Shuai Sanshi said, Chen Ziyang suddenly showed a very regretful expression, and then slapped himself three big mouths, and said to himself: "As long as you are virtuous, you should still What Maoshan Earth Master! This really makes people laugh out loud, why can't you see what is right in front of you!"

What Chen Ziyang said made Umbrella Shuai feel puzzled, but Chen Ziyang didn't give him time to ask, he jumped up from the ground, quickly got dressed, and wrapped the ball with his own handkerchief Put it in the carry-on backpack, and at the same time urged the two of them to go back quickly.

The three of them drove towards the ghost howling woman like a gust of wind.Along the way, Chen Ziyang's expression was very serious, and his eyes flickered, as if he was thinking about something seriously.

Shuai Sanshi and Nice stared at each other. Although they wanted to ask Chen Ziyang what happened, they were too embarrassed to disturb his thinking, so the three of them kept silent along the way.

After arriving at the place, Chen Ziyang jumped out of the car and turned back and forth around the big pit they dug with a diameter of about 20 meters. At the same time, he raised his head from time to time to look at the several hills on Guihao Slope.

After looking at it for a long time, Chen Ziyang took out the compass on his body and kept turning around the big pit while looking at the pointer on the compass.From time to time, he pointed the compass in the direction of the several hills of Guihao Slope, and at the same time visually measured the position of the big pit, as if he was comparing something.
