Chapter 23: Tortoise-mounted monument

The entire ancestral hall was silent, and the grandfather's sudden actions were beyond everyone's expectations.

"Why did the grandpa kneel down and kowtow to a group of snakes? And he also called them 'ancestor'? Can they understand when talking to them?" someone in the crowd whispered.

In fact, it was not just him. Except for a few people watching, the villagers should have such questions in their hearts.

Li Ergou was also very curious about how these snakes would react.

Although the fat man said that the snakes in the pit were transformed by the ancestors of the Liu family, and the purpose of coming here was to warn the villagers, it is hard to say whether they would buy the grandfather’s account.

However, just when everyone thought that the grandfather's actions were useless, the "Little Dragon" actually straightened half of his body, his eyes swept across everyone indifferently, and finally stopped on the grandfather.

"Disaster is coming, so you can do it yourself!"

The "little dragon" spoke very strangely. After saying that, he twisted his body and crawled outside the ancestral hall.

The group of small snakes in the pit also followed behind and crawled into the weeds outside the ancestral hall. After a while, they all disappeared.

"Okay, everyone was scared. It's nothing anymore. Let's go back!"

At this time, the old man, with the help of the village chief, got up from the ground and said apologetically to everyone.

Most of the villagers were stunned, and then they left the ancestral hall in groups of three or three, leaving only a few construction team members and grandpa and others.

Li Ergou was also shocked at this time, on the one hand, because of the little dragon who spoke, and on the other hand, because the matter was completely hit by the fat man.

In addition, Li Ergou was also very curious about what the disaster that Xiaolong mentioned refers to?

Although the fat man had explained before that these snakes appeared collectively because of the little drought, Li Ergou felt that this matter was probably not that simple.

However, with Li Ergou's current ability, it is absolutely impossible to know about such a thing.

After thinking about it, Li Ergou still walked to Uncle San and said, "Uncle San, do you know that the madman's grave was dug by a group of paper people last night?"

The reason why Li Ergou asked this was to see Uncle San’s reaction.

"I know."

However, what surprised Li Ergou was that Uncle San nodded and said directly.

Even the fat man couldn't help but look at Uncle San a few more times.

Obviously, the fat man didn't expect that Uncle San would admit directly about his feelings for the paper man digging the grave.

Just as Li Ergou was about to continue asking something, Uncle San suddenly waved his hand and said, "If you have anything to say, I'll say it, the matter of the ancestral hall is not over yet!"

Uncle San's words made Li Ergou stunned. He looked up and found that the respected old men in the village had not left.

Especially the grandfather and grandfather, both of them looked at the pit with serious expressions.

"Brother Ruzhong, twenty years have passed, and the ancestors are also warned as the Snake Immortal. Can you dig out that thing today?" Grandpa suddenly asked grandpa.

Li Ergou was wondering what the grandfather was saying, when he saw his grandfather sucking a mouthful of dry tobacco, he looked at the pit on the ground with a complicated expression, and then he slowly said: "Dig!"

"Uncle San, what grandpa and the others are saying, I can't understand a single word?"

Li Ergou couldn't help but feel curious and asked Uncle San.

The fat man who had been standing next to him also turned his head curiously, wanting to see what Uncle San would explain.

"Children, how come there are so many problems? Just look at it well."

But what is puzzled is that the third uncle not only said nothing, but also scolded Li Ergou.

"Everyone, please continue digging down."

After hearing grandpa’s answer, grandpa clasped his fists at the construction team members.

The construction team members hesitated for a moment, then jumped into the pit, waved the shovel, and continued to dig down.

At this time, Li Ergou and Fatty both saw something was wrong, especially the fatty, who frowned directly.

If you just repair the ancestral hall, you don’t have to dig such a big or deep pit.

Unless something is buried underneath.

"Brother Ergou, is there something buried underneath?" the fat man said curiously.

Li Ergou shook his head and said, "I don't know either, it should be!"

He wanted to ask Uncle San, but when he thought of Uncle San's temper, he held back.

The fat man said before that the Liu clan ancestral hall is the feng shui eye of the entire Wolong Village.

Now the grandfather not only asked people to dig down, but also said that twenty years have passed and they have to dig out the things and take a look.

Could it be that the old man asked someone to repair the ancestral hall because his real purpose was to dig out what was in Feng Shui?

Twenty years ago, why twenty years ago?

Because of his father's disappearance, Li Ergou was too sensitive to this number.

Could it be... Could it be that the thing buried in Feng Shui's eyes is related to the strange incident in Fengyuan Building twenty years ago?

When Li Ergou thought of this possibility, he was shocked and sweated.

No wonder over the years, both grandfather, third uncle, and mother have never cared about the disappearance of his father.

Especially Uncle San, after learning that Li Ergou was investigating the Fengyuan Building, he not only did not help, but instead obstructed him in various ways.

There must be some ulterior secrets in this!

Just as Li Ergou was thinking this way, he suddenly heard a "clang" sound, as if the shovel had touched something.

The construction team stopped for a while, and then started cleaning around.

Not long after, they cleared out a piece of stone tablet carved with a dragon head. Then, the workers were startled and climbed up from the pit.

"Old man, we can't do this job!"

The construction team leader said to the grandfather, his face was a little unfair.

These workers are not from Wolong Village. They deal with soil all year round, and the most taboo thing is to dig up things related to dead people.

Now, half of the stone tablet was suddenly dug out, and it was in the ancestral hall again. A group of talking snakes had been dug out before, and these workers thought it was unlucky.

Under the leadership of the construction team leader, everyone retreated.

"It's okay, it's just a stone tablet. We buried it with our own hands twenty years ago. You can just dig it. If it really doesn't work, I'll give you double the salary." Grandpa persuaded.

After hearing what the grandfather said, Li Ergou's eyes immediately froze, and suddenly some terrible guess appeared in his heart.

"Oh well!"

Hearing that he could get twice the wages, the construction team leader hesitated for a while, nodded and agreed, and then began to call on the workers to continue digging.

Not long after, the stone tablet was completely cleaned up.

When Li Ergou looked over, he was shocked.

The stone tablet is about two meters high and eighty centimeters long. Below it is a huge stone turtle, carrying the stone tablet on its back.

In addition, there are four relief dragon dances on both sides of the stone tablet. The dragon's tail is facing the top, the dragon's head extends to the four corners, and the surroundings are decorated with thread-carved cloud patterns, and the cloud and crane patterns are embossed on both sides.

The most terrifying thing is that the stone turtle was bleeding all over, which was extremely creepy!
