Folk tales are strange, have you ever heard of why the old man has to drop a basin when he gets up the coffin after he dies?
Anyway, this story has been passed down in a small town a long time ago, and everyone who has heard it says that it is a mysterious ritual, full of unknown powers.
Li Ming was also very curious about this, and when he learned that an old man selling fruit knew the story, he couldn't wait to find the old man to find out the truth.
Old man, I heard you know a story about an old man who fell into a coffin after he died?Li Ming asked.
The old man raised his head and looked at Li Ming, his eyes flashing with wisdom: "You want to know about that mysterious ritual, right?"”
Li Ming nodded: "Yes, I want to find out." ”
The old man smiled and began to tell the story.
He said that the old man in the story was a wise man in the town, and after he died, his family put a basin in his coffin at his request.
Then when the coffin was raised, they broke the basin.
It is said that doing so will ward off evil spirits and protect the souls of the deceased.
After listening to the old man's words, Li Ming became even more curious.
He decided to find the old man's home and see if he could find more clues.
After some inquiry, Li Ming finally found the old man's home.
It is a small wooden house on the edge of the town, which looks a little shabby, but it is full of mystery.
Li Ming knocked on the door, the door slowly opened, and a middle-aged woman appeared at the door.
When she saw Li Ming, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes: "Who are you?"Who to look for?”
I'm Li Ming, and I want to come and find the old man's family. Li Ming said.
The woman looked at Li Ming, and then nodded: "I am his daughter-in-law, do you have something?"”
Li Ming said: "I want to know about the old man who broke the basin when he got up the coffin after he passed away. ”
After hearing this, the woman's face became a little heavy: "That's a secret of our family, I can't tell you." ”
Li Ming looked at the woman's expression, and was even more sure that this story must have something special.
He decided to find out the secret in a more direct way.
As night fell, the town fell silent.
Li Ming quietly came to the old man's house, and he decided to spend the night here to see if he could find anything.
He found a hidden place outside the hut and hid, and waited quietly in the dead of night.
However, nothing unusual happened throughout the night, except for the occasional chirping of insects and the sound of the wind blowing through the leaves.
Li Ming was a little disappointed, he thought that something special would happen tonight.
However, just as he was about to leave, he suddenly heard a strange sound.
He looked in the direction of the sound and saw that it was coming from a dilapidated hut.
He crept closer to the hut and cautiously pushed the door open.
The hut was dark and cold, with only a faint moonlight shining through the window.
Li Ming looked around the hut and found that there was nothing in it except a dilapidated bed and some miscellaneous items.
However, when he walked to the bed, he suddenly found a wooden basin on the bed.
He walked over and picked up the tub and noticed some strange symbols on it.
Li Ming's heart moved, he felt that this wooden basin must be related to that mysterious ritual. He decided to take the tub back and study it.
However, at this moment, the door of the wooden house was suddenly pushed open, and a figure appeared in the doorway. Li Ming was startled, and he hurriedly hid the wooden basin behind him.
The figure was stunned for a moment when he saw Li Ming, and then walked over: "What are you doing?"”
Li Ming looked over and found that the person was the old man's daughter-in-law.
His heart tightened, and then he said, "I'm just here to see." ”
The daughter-in-law looked at Li Ming, and then said, "You better go, you are not welcome here." ”
Li Ming looked at her eyes, and knew in his heart that he no longer had a chance to stay here.
He had no choice but to put down the tub and leave the hut.
Back at home, Li Ming put the wooden basin on his desk and began to carefully study the symbols on it.
He found that the symbols appeared to be an ancient script, but he was unable to decipher their meaning.
Just as he was confused, he suddenly heard a strange sound outside.
He went to the window and saw that the people of the town were running around, their faces full of fear.
Li Ming was shocked, he immediately ran out of the house, and then ran towards the center of the town.
When he got there, he saw a scene that shocked him.
In the central square of the town, a cloud of black smoke was swirling up, and they formed a huge vortex in the air.
The center of the vortex emits a powerful suction force that sucks everything around it in.
Li Ming looked at all this, and his heart was full of fear.
He knew it must have been caused by that mysterious ritual.
He was determined to find out the truth and then stop it from happening.
Li Ming decided to go to the old man's daughter-in-law, he felt that she must know something.
However, when he arrived at the old man's house, he found it empty.
He searched everywhere and finally found his daughter-in-law in a small room.
She sat on the floor with the wooden basin beside her. Her face was pale and her eyes were full of fear.
Li Ming walked over and looked at her: "What happened?".”
The daughter-in-law looked at him and said, "I didn't know that this tub had such power." I just wanted to protect our family, but I didn't expect it to cause something like this. ”
After Li Ming heard this, he understood everything in his heart.
He knew that this wooden basin must be a test left by the old man, and only through this trial could the truth be revealed.
He decided to take the test and find out the truth.
However, at this moment, that huge vortex suddenly appeared in front of them.
It emitted a powerful suction, sucking both the daughter-in-law and the tub in.
Li Ming watched his daughter-in-law and the wooden basin being sucked into the whirlpool, and his heart was full of determination.
He knew that this was his only chance and that he had to save them.
He took a deep breath and walked towards the whirlpool.
He felt a powerful force pulling at him, but he didn't stop, but continued to walk.
Suddenly, he felt the emptiness under his feet, and his whole person was sucked into the whirlpool.
He felt like he was being swept into a swirling tunnel, and everything around him became blurred.
When Li Ming opened his eyes again, he found that he had come to a completely unfamiliar place.
It's a world of mystery, surrounded by tall buildings and strange creatures.
He saw his daughter-in-law sitting next to her with the wooden basin beside her.
When she saw him, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes: "How did you find here?".”
Li Ming smiled: "I don't know, I just follow my feelings." ”
Li Ming and his daughter-in-law explore this mysterious world together, and they find that it seems to be the site of an ancient civilization.
They found some records of the wooden basin in the ruins, and it turned out that this wooden basin was a sacred object of this civilization and possessed great power.
They found a way to control the power of the tub and then used it to successfully stop the formation of the whirlpool.
When they return to the town, they find that everything is back to normal.
Li Ming and his daughter-in-law bid farewell to this mysterious world and returned to their hometown.
They told the story to the people of the town and let them know the truth about this mysterious ritual.
Since then, there has been no supernatural or strange thing in the town.
And Li Ming and his daughter-in-law have also become stronger and braver because of this experience.
They started a new life and will cherish this wonderful memory forever.
This story made me feel the power of courage and determination.
