Liaozhai Ghost Story

Chapter 413 Ancient Bottle

There is a dry well in the North Village of Zichuan County. Villagers A and B went to the well to explore the treasure. Digging a ruler, he dug out a skeleton and accidentally broke it. There was a piece of gold in the skull. The two of them were overjoyed and put the gold into their pockets. I continued to dig and dug out six or seven skeletons, one by one, but this time I got nothing. There are two porcelain bottles and a copper ware next to the skeleton. The copper ware is thick and weighs dozens of kilograms. There is a copper ring on each side. I don't know what's the use. The copper ring is rusty, which is obviously an ancient thing. The porcelain bottle is simple and old-fashioned.

After leaving the well, both of them died. After a while, the villager Yi died and recovered, shouting, "I'm a Han man." Due to the chaos of Wang Mang, the whole family was thrown into the well and died. There was a piece of gold in his mouth before he died. Why did he take it away? Just take it away. Why did you break the head of your family one by one? It's really hateful."

When everyone heard the words, they were worried. Now they burned incense and prayed for forgiveness, and agreed to bury the remains. Villager B was cured; but Villager A died to the end and could not be saved.

When Yan Zhen Sun Shusheng heard about this, he paid to buy the copper ware. As for the two porcelain bottles, one was bought by Yuan Xuansi and Yuan Xiucai, and the other was bought by Zhang Xiucai. Yuan's porcelain bottle can predict the weather. If there are wet marks on the bottle, when the size of the rice grains gradually expands at the beginning, it will rain in the sky. When the wet marks recede, the weather will clear up.

Zhang's porcelain bottle can determine the date. On the first day of the lunar new year, there is only one black spot on the bottle, and one is added every day. At the fifteenth day, there will be fifteen black spots, and then it will decrease one by one. At the end of the month, all the black spots will disappear. Because the porcelain bottle has been buried in the ground for too long, there is a small stone on the mouth of the bottle, which can't be removed. When I hit it with a tool, I accidentally use too much force. Although the stone is finally knocked down, it also leaves a damage at the mouth of the bottle, which is a small pity. There is another great beauty about the porcelain bottle. It is filled with water to raise trees without fertilization. The saplings will grow, blossom and bear fruit, which is no different from planting on the ground.
