Chapter 37 Big Banyan Tree

Early the next morning, it was not yet dawn.

After Chen Jiangtao got up, he asked Yu Xu's mother for a few embroidery needles and a few more chopsticks.

Then, he broke the front section of the chopsticks, clamped an embroidery needle, tied it tightly with a rope, broke a cross-shaped crack behind it, and clamped two pieces of chicken feathers horizontally and vertically. A simple and sharp dart was ready.

He divided the darts to Yu Xu and others, one by two; then Chen Jiangtao and the three of them quietly touched the woods northwest of Zhangjia Village.

As soon as I arrived, I saw a black car driving over very slowly. At this time, the light was still dark and I could only barely see the road clearly. However, the car did not turn on the lights, obviously because I was afraid that people from Zhangjia Village would find out.

The car drove into a hidden place in the woods and stopped. The two got out of the car and opened the trunk. One of them grabbed a thick piece of clothing and put it on the other.

The man who was trapped muttered: "This errand is so tiring."

The person who helped him put on his clothes comforted him: "It's the last year, the boss said, "Thank you for a little more effort. When the dead man is buried in it, the matter will be over."

"I said so last year, after the last year, I said the last year every year!" The man put on thick clothes spitted on the ground: "I said I wouldn't do anything after doing this year. I'm so sorry for this unethical thing!"

"Come on, you said last year that you won't finish it anymore, and you're still rushing to get it." The person who helped out with clothes also said resentfully: "Just be content. You can get a salary for five days. I want to do this kind of job! I feel sorry for my conscience. Why don't your conscience hurt when you collect money..."

"A lot of nonsense." The person who had put on thick clothes took two pieces of thin things, pulled a piece of leather tube to the thick clothes and pulled it through a piece of leather tube.

The inflatable sound of "huhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Seeing this, Chen Jiangtao understood why this man could float in the air. The clothes he was wearing must have been filled with hydrogen and other gases.

After filling the air, the man grabbed a huge copper bell in his hand, stepped on two thin sticks on his feet, and took two or three meters in one step, and walked towards Zhangjia Village.

At the same time, the strange evil ghost bell rang.

After watching the whole process, Miao Li and Zhang Min's originally trembling bodies also stabilized. After witnessing the evil ghost being disguised as humans, they were no longer so scared.

Seeing the "evil ghost" going to Zhangjia Village, Yu Xu pulled Chen Jiangtao and leaned into his ear to ask: "Let's follow us quickly and expose him soon!"

Chen Jiangtao shook his head, grabbed Yu Xu, and signaled him not to hurry first.

The man who helped out with clothes saw that the person pretending to be an "evil ghost" left successfully, he called: "Boss, Master Wang has entered the village... Yes!... Yes!... OK, I'll go and make up for it right away!"

After the call, the man took a pack of bulging things from the car and walked towards the other direction of Zhangjia Village. Chen Jiangtao pushed two girls who were close to him.

I felt that my hands were slippery and soft and comfortable. I didn't notice that Chen Jiangtao's hand pushed Miao Li's chest. She was staring at the man nervously, not realizing it at all.

"Let's follow." Chen Jiangtao lowered his voice, and the three of them immediately followed.

The man walked to a slope and stopped under a big banyan tree that many people could only embrace. He looked around vigilantly, climbed up a few steps, and then disappeared on the tree.

After a while, the man suddenly appeared on the tree again. The backpack on his backpack was obviously shrunken. The man carefully climbed down the tree and quickly arrived at the parking place to drive away.

After the man confirmed to leave, Chen Jiangtao and his friends rushed to the big banyan tree and looked around. Most of the big banyan tree had died, with only a few branches hanging with green leaves.

The man just now disappeared after climbing up, which was really strange.

"Ah!" Yu Xu called out after he arrived at the big banyan tree.

Chen Jiangtao, Miao Li and Zhang Min were circling the tree to check where they could hide. They were shocked by his sudden scream.

"What's wrong?"

Yu Xu pointed to the branches with green leaves and said, "This big banyan tree has been dead for many years, how could it appear again?"

"You mean, this big banyan tree turned out to be dead?" Chen Jiangtao asked.

Yu Xu nodded: "Yes, it starts with my memory. This is a dead tree. A few years ago, the village was planning to chop it as firewood."

"The dead tree meets spring." Chen Jiangtao frowned, climbed onto the tree a few times, and then shouted down: "Yu Xu, bring a flashlight!"

After Yu Xu came up, he saw Chen Jiangtao squatting on a tree branch. He leaned over. Chen Jiangtao grabbed a groove in the bark with his right hand and pulled it down. The bark was pulled open, and a small hole that was enough for one person to enter and exit appeared in front of him.

"Yu Xu, use a flashlight to shine!"

Yu Xu went over in surprise, turned on the flashlight and shone it into the small hole. The two of them saw clearly that the trunk of the entire banyan tree had been hollowed out, and something was erected in the middle.

"Go down and take a look." Chen Jiangtao said, jumping down carefully.

One person was taller when the hollowed-out part of the banyan tree was raised. Yu Xu then jumped down and shone it with a flashlight. He found that some strange patterns were carved on the inner wall of the hollowed-out tree trunk.

Chen Jiangtao leaned over and carefully identified it, and felt even more strange. The patterns on it are some runes that gather luck commonly used in Feng Shui. This kind of runes are usually only used on graves. How could it be so densely carved on the inner wall of a tree?

Chen Jiangtao reached out and touched it, and found that his hands were wet. When he got closer, he smelled it. He smelled it. There was some black liquid, which emitted a fishy smell. The place under his feet was sticky, as if there was a lot of glue gathering there.

Yu Xu stepped on something under his feet, and he picked it up. It was a plastic bag. He looked at it and threw it away quickly. He said in a panic: "It's a blood bag... a blood bag from the hospital."

Blood bag.

Chen Jiangtao raised his hand and looked at the things stained on his hands. He immediately realized that the runes carved on the inner wall of the big banyan tree were stained with blood.

The two of them looked at the thing standing in the middle of the cavity of the big banyan tree with a flashlight. It was a black rectangle, with a large bottom and a small top.

After leaning over and seeing clearly, the two of them looked at each other and understood what this was.

It was a coffin standing up.

The position they were standing at should be at the bottom of the coffin. Chen Jiangtao turned around and froze.
