Chapter 247 Under the Foundation
On the eight construction sites, the master workers were working hard with their headlights on, and large or fragmented building residues were constantly being transported out.
Ran Ran and the others stood on the uneven mud floor, watching the huge lamp gradually merge with the sky.
The dawn breaks through the darkness and shines bright white light into this steel forest rooted in the soil.
The appearance of the eight buildings looks more like ruins than when Ran Ran and the others came before.
All the steel and concrete have been pushed almost completely, and in the distance a master is driving an excavator slowly.
"Let's start digging..." Shen Dinghai's eyes did not move from the ruins for a moment, "Cousin...what do you think will be below?"
Ran Ran's first thought was Yes, it was the words of the previous worker.
"Every time I reach the eleventh level, I can no longer repair it. The iron will definitely collapse!"
She murmured to herself, "The eleventh level, what do they want to express?"
After a moment of trance, she suddenly raised her head and stared at the excavator, "It's not what I thought..."
Shen Dinghai on the side suddenly became curious, "Cousin, is that what you think? Do you know what’s underneath?”
Ran Ran, who had always known everything about Shen Dinghai, kept her mouth shut at this time.
She looked intently at the piles of soil that had been dug up, with a solemn look in her eyes that Shen Dinghai had never seen before.
Shen Dinghai was a little surprised, but didn't say anything.
Time passed by, and I don’t know how long the three excavators had been digging together, and how long Ran Ran and the others had been waiting. Everyone at the scene could only feel that the sky was getting brighter and brighter.
Finally, the master driving the excavator shouted, "We've dug something!"
As soon as these words came out, Ran Ran took a step forward in an instant, and her movements were faster than those who were originally surrounded by them. The workers next to the excavator need to be faster.
Ran Ran was the first person to see it.
Shen Dinghai and the others followed them belatedly, unable to even see the situation of the pit clearly at the first time.
Their attention was all on Ranran's ugly face.
"It's really like this..."
Ran Ran's face was cold, as if she was shocked and confused by everything in front of her, but listening to her words, she clearly expected what the scene was like under the foundation. among.
Shen Dinghai then separated his thoughts and slowly moved his eyes towards the pit.
This sight almost frightened him out of his body.
What was seen buried in the shovelful soil was a stump of a limb. After being processed by microorganisms and time, the skin and flesh on the surface had rotted, revealing the white leg bones, mixed with soil, making the scene look indescribably terrifying. .
There was a moment of dead silence, and then a loud shout broke out from the crowd.
It was like the originally calm water suddenly boiled.
The discussion at the scene was like bubbles in boiling water, rising up.
“This is a human leg! It belongs to a human! It’s a dead person!”
"There are actually dead people buried under this building?! I thought these young ladies and young masters were going to dig up some antiques!"
"Eight buildings can't be repaired. Could it be because of these dead people? ? ”
“Yes! This has been the case since ancient times! Building buildings and bridges are all about Feng Shui. This place originally had its own appearance. If you have to build something on it, then Destroyed the original appearance!"
"This is unacceptable! If we don't find a way to resolve this situation, we will definitely not be able to repair the building!"
The crowd heard the words "It is unacceptable!" , with a look of horror on his face, couldn't help but ask.
"Resolve? How to resolve? Do you need to hire a Feng Shui master? And what does Feng Shui have to do with the dead?"
"Idiot, what I mean is that this place must not have buried the dead like it does now. Ah! Look at how deep the excavator dug out the body. Think about how big a hole he dug in order to bury the body."
"I understand! It means changing the feng shui of this place. It’s not eight buildings, it’s a pit for people to be buried in!”
“It’s stupid! Building a building will definitely have an impact even more! In addition, cremation is now being implemented, who’s serious about death? Will he be buried like this? "
"Not to mention the coffin, there is not even a straw mat, just buried in the soil, he must have been killed. "
"The person who was killed can easily turn into a ghost after death!"
"With the influence of Feng Shui and the curse of ghosts, it's strange that this building can be repaired!"
Everyone's whispers The words reached Shen Dinghai's ears without falling, and he hesitated to speak while looking at Ranran's solemn profile.
"Cousin...is this the woman who was killed by the transfer bead business?"
Ran Ran slowly turned her head to look at Shen Dinghai, her eyes were a little cold, like a weapon being sharpened. The cool and cold light was revealed at that time.
"It's them." Before Shen Dinghai had time to reflect what these three words meant, he heard Ran Ran say again.
“Keep digging.”
Three short words, but no one dared to ignore them.
The workers hurriedly took the severed limb out of the shovel and then retreated to a safe area. The excavator master immediately continued working.
Ran Ran pursed her lips and suddenly said: "A master is enough. Please move slower."
Everyone was shocked. The person who insisted on being the fastest before now changed his tune.
They saw the girl lowering her long eyelashes and her pursed lower lip showing some stubbornness.
"At least try to preserve their bodies."
After hearing this, the workers on site were frightened at first, and they had lots of guesses in their minds, but they did not dare to say it out loud.
But one thing is the same.
They probably knew that these women buried under the foundation were killed.
They have grievances, they are wronged.
The occasional sobs on the construction site may be their ghosts lingering here crying.
They thought of their wives, mothers, and daughters.
A worker spoke up, "If you ask me, don't use an excavator, just dig it by hand!"
Everyone looked towards the source of the sound, and a determination gradually appeared in the worker's eyes.
They watched, and their eyes unknowingly gathered that kind of determination.
"Okay! Dig it by hand! The pit is already this big and deep anyway! The rest won't take much effort!"
"Add me!"
"Me! And more!"
For a while, the scene was full of workers who volunteered to help, and the excavator master looked at Ran Ran hesitantly.
"Little girl, this..."
Raising her eyes slowly, although her eyes were full of sadness, she curved her lips and showed a smile as if the spring breeze broke through the ice and snow.
“I would like to thank everyone on their behalf. Even if we are separated by Yin and Yang, I will try my best to pass on this warmth to them.”
Although the workers were not sure what the words meant for a while, how could a little girl pass on warmth to the dead and burn paper as a sacrifice?
But they basically understood that Ran Ran agreed with them to start digging, so they started taking action one after another.
Zhang Wei contacted her colleagues from the Public Security Bureau when she first discovered the stump, and now they also joined the excavation team.
Although a worker said before that the excavator has completed a large part of the work and the pit revealed is already large and deep, but the remaining part is only done by manpower, which still takes a lot of time.
But no one present was impatient, silence and sweat spread throughout the scene.
No one spoke.
The scene on the horizon soon became brighter and brighter, and as time passed, corpses continued to be exhumed.
“Here is one! Come and help me!”
“Here it comes!”
“Here is one! What a crime...”
The longer the excavation lasted, the more complex the workers' expressions became.
"So many...what is this..."
In a blink of an eye, the sun rose to the top of the head. The weather was obviously getting colder day by day, but everyone's face and body were covered with sweat. Sweating.
It’s just that everyone couldn’t tell whether the sweat was caused by the hard work of digging and moving, or whether it was frightened by the sight in front of them.
“No more…”
After repeated confirmation, the worker gritted his teeth and whispered this sentence.
Ran Ran peeled off the mud stuck to his hands with a calm expression.
Thirty-three female corpses were neatly placed in the open space next to them. There were not enough tools on site. Only some of them were covered with cloth or oil paper. The remaining corpses were covered with clean clothes that the workers had taken off long ago. Jacket.
Motion flashed in Ranran's eyes.
“Thirty-three corpses, eleven floors, this is why eight buildings cannot be repaired.”
