Starting from the folklore forum, making up town objects

Chapter 158: Soul in the Pig Cage

The mountains at night are quiet.

After entering Sanshan Village, Chen Xin was not very nervous, but just a little alert.

For example, holding a mourning stick in your hand, tying the placenta sac around your waist, hanging reeds around your neck, or placing a ghost cat figurine on the ground.

The reason for placing the ghost raccoon figurines is that the entire Sanshan Village has actually become a huge mass grave.

Among the people who survived Sanshan Village by chance, only a few dug up the bodies of their relatives and buried them separately. The rest of the people simply used the ruins of Sanshan Village as a cemetery.

The middle-aged man Chen Xin had met before came to worship at the former location of their home in the Sanshan Village ruins.

So if there really is a ghost, the Nether Lizard will naturally be triggered.

But now, the Dark Raccoon figurine was motionless.

This also means that there are no ghosts haunting the Sanshan Village ruins.

This surprised Chen Xin a little, but when he remembered that there were no ghosts within the range of the big banyan tree in the underworld, Chen Xin understood.

Walking towards the depths of Sanshan Village, Chen Xin would occasionally estimate whether he had reached the center of the village based on the positions of the three mountains.

After walking for about five or six minutes, Chen Xin stopped.

"This should be the center of the village."

Looking at the area nearby that was overgrown with weeds and even had a few small trees, Chen Xin threw out the placenta and called Huang Ying out.

At the same time, Chen Xin's hands were also covered with the power of qi and blood.

"Then, let's start!"

……

Cracking sounds continued to be heard in the ruins of Sanshan Village. If someone who knew the origin of Sanshan Village passed by here at night, he would definitely be scared to death.

Fortunately, it was already night time, and people around who knew about what happened in Sanshan Village would not come here to hang around.

The sound continued until the early morning before gradually stopping.

In a deep pit, Chen Xin looked at the ground paved with large bluestones under his feet and sighed in his heart.

He started digging at seven in the evening and has been digging until twelve o'clock now.

In five hours, he and Huang Ying dug five places, and in each place they dug a pit with a diameter of one meter and a depth of more than ten meters!

Two skeletons were dug out, but no banyan tree was found.

Logically speaking, even if he chose the wrong location, according to the description of Li Changsheng and the middle-aged man, the crown diameter of the big banyan tree in Sanshan Village was definitely forty or fifty meters.

In this range, Chen Xin could definitely dig out some traces of the banyan tree.

But actually, it doesn't.

Chen Xin already had some guesses about this.

After looking at the time, Chen Xin climbed out of the pit which was more than ten meters deep. After he got out, he controlled Huang Ying to dig around at the bottom of the pit.

The pit is more than ten meters deep. If a landslide really happened, Chen Xin couldn't guarantee that he could get out of it, so he could only let Huang Ying work underneath.

Soon, Huang Ying expanded the diameter of the pit bottom from one meter to three meters. Although there was some collapse, the progress was still smooth.

click!
Chen Xin's eyes lit up, and he looked at the place where he had just dug something through Huang Ying's night vision.

It was a built-up stone structure, similar to a garden fence.

Chen Xin was delighted and continued to let Huang Ying dig.

Not long after, the full picture of the thing appeared in Chen Xin's vision.

A stone enclosure with a diameter of eight meters. If Chen Xin guessed correctly, this was the location of the big banyan tree.

But at this time, the middle of the stone fence was empty, and there was no trace of the banyan tree.

boom!
The place where Huang Ying dug out collapsed.

Chen Xin silently called back Huang Ying, and at the same time he had the answer in his mind.

"Is this what my uncle said, that the ghost's true body was taken into the underworld?"

"Yes, if the big banyan tree hadn't entered the underworld, it would have been discovered by the Public Opinion Research Bureau long ago."

After figuring out the situation here, Chen Xin decided not to stay any longer and walked out of the village.

Although he failed to find an indirect way to deal with the banyan tree, Chen Xin was still satisfied with this trip.

At least this trip proved that those powerful ghosts in the underworld can be found in reality.

"Did the Sanshan Village in the underworld appear because of the appearance of the big banyan tree?"

"If the big banyan tree disappeared from Sanshan Village in the underworld, would it still exist?"

Regarding Yin Ming, the information Chen Xin got from his uncle was very superficial, but with his own repeated explorations, the essence of Yin Ming was gradually revealed to him.

There is nothing wrong with the saying that practice makes perfect.

It is no exaggeration to say that Chen Xin’s exploration of the Yin and Ming during this period has already been the result of several years of research by the Public Opinion Research Bureau.

But the Poll Bureau doesn’t know, and neither does Chen Xin.

Walking out of the Sanshan Village ruins, when passing by the Mingli figurine, Chen Xin summoned it back, and the same went for Weijiao.

In the end, only the mourning stick and the placenta sac were left in her hands, one held in her hand and the other hung around her waist.

As soon as he left Sanshan Village, Chen Xin's horizons broadened.

The forest is beautiful at night, but what happens here is not beautiful.

Just when Chen Xin was about to leave, he suddenly remembered something.

Where is the location of the pig immersion cage in Sanshan Village?

Turning his head and looking around, he saw a place by the river.

There was a half-broken wooden bridge hidden in the grass.

Chen Xin walked over, stood on the wooden bridge and looked down.

The river water, which was clear during the day, now looked pitch black.

Chen Xin didn't know what he was thinking of, he untied the placenta sac around his waist and threw it directly into the water.

The moment he entered the water, the yellow baby appeared.

Soon, Huang Ying reached the bottom of the water and began to search underwater.

In less than five minutes, Huang Ying surfaced more than 20 meters away from the wooden bridge and approached the shore. As soon as Huang Ying stepped onto the shore, something much larger than Huang Ying emerged from the water.

It was a broken cage covered with aquatic plants and mud, at least two meters long and one meter thick. Judging from the marks left on it on the shore, it was not light.

Come to think of it, if the weight is light, what would happen if the people inside float up?
Chen Xin walked over and looked at the cage in the dark.

In a corner of the cage, he found many cracks, so the thing Chen Xin wanted to find would naturally not remain inside.

"The skeleton is gone, so will this pig cage do?"

Chen Xin stood up, picked up the mourning stick and pointed it at the pig cage.

Call ~
A gust of night wind blew, blowing Chen Xin's clothes and also blowing the figure that had just emerged.

Looking at the figure with only white eyes and an illusory body that seemed to be blown away by the wind at any time, Chen Xin raised his staff again.

The figure turned into a white shadow and merged into one of the seven pieces of paper on the mourning staff.

Thus, two of the seven pieces of paper had turned black.

Feeling the power brought by this ghost, Chen Xin was not disappointed because it was the same as the first one.

Her existence is not for fighting, but for an experiment of Chen Xin.

Putting away the mourning stick, Chen Xin took out the net sieve and looked at the pig cage, but it was not what he imagined.

"It didn't become an innate yin object... Is it because it wasn't originally a ghost?"

Chen Xin kicked the pig cage back into the water and left.

The next morning at six o'clock, the driver arrived on time and took Chen Xin away from the entrance of Lihua Village.

Just two hours after Chen Xin left, a figure on a motorcycle rushed out of Lihua Village.

……

Chen Xin hurried and finally arrived at the classroom after the teacher entered the classroom.

Fortunately, university teachers don’t mind students being late, as long as they come, they are good kids.

Chen Xin quietly walked into the classroom along the wall and sat next to Li Yong and Yang Shuxian.

"Why are you in such a hurry?"

Yang Shuxian asked.

"The tire was flat, so it's a good thing we're not late."

Chen Xin said casually, put the book on the table, and turned to the page where the teacher was lecturing.

"Ahem, let me tell you some news."

Li Yong suddenly interrupted, attracting the attention of Yang Shuxian and Chen Xin.

"I'm dating someone."

"Congratulations."

"Good."

Chen Xin and Yang Shuxian gave symbolic compliments and then continued listening to the class.

"Hey, even though we're not in the same dormitory anymore, our friendship still exists, right?"

"hehe."

Yang Shuxian gave a fake smile and then exposed Li Yong's thoughts.

"Show your affection and you will die quickly. I advise you to be kind."

"Hehe, are you envious? Jealous? Tsk, there's nothing I can do. I'm just too charming. If you want to ask for advice, just let me know. I'll introduce you to her..."

Neither Chen Xin nor Yang Shuxian paid any attention.

Soon, the class was over.

When Li Yong was about to impart his experience to the two of them, he found a girl walked up to Chen Xin and whispered a few words into Chen Xin's ear.

Then Chen Xin said goodbye to them and left.

Li Yong stood there in a daze. When he turned around and was about to say something, he saw that Yang Shuxian had already left.

"Hey, what's going on with Chen Xin? Is he dating someone? Why didn't he tell us? Who is that girl…"

……

On the other side, Chen Xin and Chai Ruobing went to the private room on the second floor of the cafeteria to eat together.

"Are you saying there's a clue to a supernatural event?"

Chen Xin looked at Chai Ruobing and said.

"Well, an Internet cafe. The clues are still unclear. I'm not sure. I feel that it could be a ghost or a wandering soul. So I invite you to go with me. The points are still 50-50."

"when to go?"

"Tomorrow. That thing only comes out on Thursdays. The location is not far from our school. It only takes half an hour to get there by subway."

Chen Xin nodded.

"Okay, contact me then."

"it is good."

After the two finished talking about business, they didn't say anything else. Just as they were about to leave the private room, the phones rang one after another.

The person who called Chen Xin was Zhou Lei, and the person who called Chai Ruobing was Mi Xiaobai.

Both are talking about the same thing.

The owner of the secret room store on Church Culture Street was hacked to death.

He didn't die, but the secret room was closed down.

The murderer has been caught. He is a farmer. It is said that he was shouting "Why are you still alive and well" while he was hacking people.

Chai Ruobing didn't have any thoughts after hearing this, she just spent some time with Mi Xiaobai feeling sorry for him.

The first person Chen Xin thought of was the middle-aged man.

"Is it him?"
