When I thought about that scene, I felt numb in my heart: "They put masks on dead bodies?"

Bai Yang nodded: "It is said that in this way, the soul of the deceased can be attached to the mask, so that the ghosts of injustice can be appeased."

"But I'm afraid another reason is to suppress those resentful souls. But anyway, this bad habit has been spread in this remote mountain village. Hualong Village is surrounded by water, and water gathers yin. This is why there is so much resentment in the village.

's sake."

What Bai Yang said is the same as what I thought. In fact, when I learned that this village puts masks on dead bodies, I thought it was to suppress the ghosts of the dead.

"What else? What happened to the two saints in Hualong Village?" I asked.

Bai Yang said: "After the wars in the Ming Dynasty were calmed down and the royal power was stabilized, two saints came to Hualong Village. They were originally a couple."

I said: "Are they the two official puppets enshrined in the temple?"

Bai Yang nodded: "Well, in that era of hunger, these two saints came to Hualong Village and distributed food to the villagers, allowing the poor villagers to live a life of adequate food.

The officials were regarded as twin saints by the villagers of Hualong Village, and the woman was even called Mrs. Gaoming."

Having said that, I seem to be able to imagine what will happen next.

Historical records show that when the Ming Dynasty was founded in the early days, people in many places were in dire straits and lived in dire straits.

However, that era was also relatively corrupt. Not to mention officials distributing grain to the people, even the grain distributed by the court would be exploited and kept privately by officials layer by layer, and in some places official taxes would be forcibly levied on the people.

These two saints care about the common people, so it is reasonable for them to be loved by Hualong Village.

"But these two saints are not ordinary people. The fact that the villagers of Hualong Village offered sacrifices to the Dragon King had been circulated in Hualong Village at that time. After the two saints learned about it, they knew that this matter was extraordinary."

"During the sacrifice, the two of them rescued the boys and girls who were offering sacrifices to the devil snake, but this also brought disaster to them. Under the secret plan of the devil snake and the spell cast by the snake woman, the two saints drowned in the river mysteriously.

inside."

Bai Yang didn't say anything further, but my heart sank when I heard this. It really followed the old saying that good people don't live long.

I asked: "Later, in order to commemorate them, the villagers enshrined their official puppets?"

Bai Yang shook his head, looked at me with a strange look in his eyes, and said something that made my hair stand on end.

The moment this sentence fell into my ears, I almost gasped and felt a chill running down my spine.

"Why?"

The most angry and resentful thing in this world is probably repaying kindness with hatred.

These ignorant villagers not only showed no gratitude to the two saints for their sacrifice, but instead repaid them with kindness and hatred.

No wonder the two of them have so much resentment?!

Bai Yang continued: "It should be that he was bewitched by the snake woman, and the twin saints care about the villagers. In their opinion, the twin saints will not blame him. In addition, there is such a bad custom in Hualong Village itself."

"Not only does Hualong Village have this bad habit, but in order to carry on the family line for the men in the village, it is also common to spend money to buy women from outside and imprison them as fertility machines. It is not uncommon for a woman to serve multiple husbands to continue the family life. Of course... I'm afraid this is

She is also a snake woman who wants to make Hualong Village prosperous so that she can find more suitable sacrifices."

Now after hearing what Bai Yang said, I felt disgusted with this village. Those villagers really deserved their death.

Bai Yang was not infected by my emotion, and continued after pondering for a while: "After the death of the two saints, troubles began to happen in the village. First, the poultry was sucked dry of blood for no reason, and the villagers began to be possessed by evil spirits and went crazy.

People began to suffer from a strange disease, and spots would appear all over their bodies, and they would become rotten and smelly."

"The villagers of Hualong Village were extremely panicked, so Snake Po asked the villagers to make two official puppets according to the method she said. They looked and dressed exactly like the two twin saints and placed them in the two village temples on the left and right of Hualong Village.

Every year on the day they fell into the water, incense must be offered to worship them, and the incense must not be cut off at all times, so as to appease their resentment."

Seeing Bai Yang pause here, I frowned and said, "I'm afraid it's not that simple here, right?"

I despise this approach from the bottom of my heart. Such ignorant and inhumane villagers are simply not worth saving.

Thinking that Chu Yuan told me that the two official puppets actually directly sealed the ghosts of the two saints in order to prevent them from reincarnation forever, I guessed that there must be something not simple about this.

Bai Yang smiled and nodded: "Of course the snake woman has bad intentions. If it is true what she said, Hualong Village will not experience such terrible things in the future."

"The snake woman cast a spell to seal the ghosts of the two saints, whose resentment was not strong at the beginning, into official puppets made of century-old locust wood and grave soil, depicting the appearance of the two in life, and under the guise of quelling the resentment, the villagers allowed the villagers to worship the two saints.

people."

"Because the ghost was imprisoned in Guan Ou at first, the village was indeed peaceful for a period of time, and the villagers also believed in the words of the snake woman more firmly."

"But over time, if it is contaminated with the smell of incense, the evil spirits in the body will continue to accumulate. When it is about to explode, it will become a living death caused by incense."

It may be that good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and evil people will be punished by evil people.

The former villagers of Hualong Village did all kinds of bad things, but after doing so many bad things, they not only suffered bad consequences.

And they probably didn't know that the Dragon King they had worshiped for generations was a demonic snake that kept them as livestock.

Although the demon snake is also very hateful, after listening to what Bai Yang said, I feel that dealing with these stubborn villagers is not so disgusting.

"The two village temples on the left and right of Hualong Village are themselves pools of yin. In addition, the whole village has long been full of resentment. Putting Guan Ou in it will only make the ghosts of those two people stronger. Guan Ou not only has to bear the burden of the villagers

The incense is always devouring the resentment of the dead souls of generations in the village whose bodies have been dismembered."

"It is precisely because of this that more than ten years ago, the two of them broke away from the shackles of official couples. The first thing they did after coming out was to bury the whole village with them. As for what happened in the village later, you also know."

What happened next should be what Grandma Liu said, the real experience of the villagers of Hualong Village back then.

When Grandma Liu told me about it for the first time, I felt that many of it was unreasonable. After all, it was impossible for the Twin Saints to take such revenge on the devout villagers. But the root of all this was because of what the villagers of Hualong Village had done.

of evil deeds.

It seemed that at this moment, all the truth about Hualong Village was understood.

I suddenly realized and said: "The snake woman sealed the ghosts of the two twin saints in the official palace forever and ever, in order to perfect the four-symbol trapping the Yin and locking the dragon in Hualong Village. The Yang Qi can't get in, and the dead Qi can't get out.

, coupled with the bad customs in the village, the aura of death in Hualong Village has gathered to a terrifying level, in order to allow the demon snake to break out of the seal as soon as possible with the help of the aura of death."
