"The village chief at that time was not the current director Ma." Chuxin emphasized, for fear that I would misunderstand the current village chief, Director Ma.
"Hahaha, I can understand that Director Ma is now in the prime of life. When your grandfather was young, he probably didn't say anything yet."
Chuxin nodded, very satisfied with me, and continued: "As soon as we arrived at the village chief's house, the village chief's wife came out. The village chief's wife's surname was Ma, and her name was Ma Lian. She had a loud voice and was warm-hearted. When she saw grandma leading the two
The child ran over with tears in his eyes and hurriedly greeted him. He hugged his second uncle and said to his grandma: "Isn't it time for your unscrupulous kid to beat you? Such a good daughter-in-law is not willing to beat you. Let's go, eldest sister will take my place."
It's up to you to pick up this calf. As he said this, he grabbed grandma's sleeves with his big hands and walked towards grandpa's house, mumbling as he walked. Grandma was already crying in tears.
Choking with sobs, she said: Sister, it wasn't him who hit me, but I don't know what happened to that wound in my family... I have some kind of evil disease. I was fine when I left in the morning, but when I came back at noon, I didn't feel well anymore, and I was vomiting green water."
"Ma Lian frowned when she heard this and said to grandma: Come on, I'll go to your house with you. The two of them walked quickly to grandma's house. As soon as they stepped in the door, they smelled a pungent stench. Ma Lian
Lian frowned and walked slowly to her grandfather. Unexpectedly, at this time, her second uncle in her arms burst into tears and she couldn't be coaxed. Grandma took the second uncle from Ma Lian's hand and coaxed her.
, while asking Ma Lian anxiously: Sister, can you tell what's going on with him? Ma Lian said softly to her grandma: Sister, don't worry now, it's noon, and my family will be back soon.
He went to high school with Tulang for two years when he was young. When your eldest brother comes back to show him, you can keep an eye on him first, and I will go find him. After saying that, he quickly walked out of the yard."
The story of Chu Xin contains detailed dialogues between characters. I am very curious about who told her these dialogues. Among the parties involved, apart from Ma Lian, only her grandmother has the qualifications to be present, but obviously none of them are willing to come from the mouth of someone who has experienced it.
, so I immediately judged that the story was seriously adulterated. Maybe the story was true, but the version Chuxin said was not necessarily true.
"What happened next?" I showed that my appetite was whetted, and I continued to cater to my original desire for expression.
"At this time, grandma felt relieved. She carried her second uncle behind her back and covered the green mucus spitted out by grandpa in the house with ashes and threw the shovel out. When she went out, grandma took another look in the distance and saw the big bird eagle.
, had disappeared. But when she turned around, she saw her standing on the roof of her house. Grandma let out a frightened 'Ah', and then the big eagle fluttered its huge wings and flew away."
"It's that big eagle again. I also saw a big eagle yesterday. It couldn't be such a coincidence, right?" I said in a panic.
Chuxin looked me over and said, "We do have an eagle here, so I'm not sure what kind of eagle grandma saw at that time."
"Oh, that shouldn't be the case. What you said is so evil, it shouldn't be what I saw."
Chuxin continued: "After a while, I saw Ma Lian leading the village chief and several enthusiastic villagers to grandma's house in a hurry. The village chief walked quickly to grandpa and said something strange
He was gasping for breath because he ran too fast. He carefully opened his grandfather's eyes. The village chief's eyebrows darkened, and his grandfather's eyes were completely flushed with blood. He tried his breath again and quickly withdrew his eyes.
He stopped his hand, because his breath was too hot, and touched his forehead again. Then he turned around and shouted to everyone: Hurry up, whoever has cool well water, please bring two buckets! Don’t wait for the village chief to finish.
Next, Wang Qingshan, who lives not far from his grandfather’s house, turned around, picked up a bucket and a pole, and trotted towards his own well. Seeing someone going to fetch water, the village chief asked again: Sister, the elder brother’s fever is too severe.
How did you get the disease? Grandma started crying again as she spoke, and told the story of grandpa's illness one by one. At this time, Wang Qingshan gasped for air and put two buckets of freshly fetched water in the house. Grandma saw the cold water coming.
He hurriedly took a towel, moistened it and applied it on grandpa’s forehead. The village chief frowned and said softly to grandma: Sister, I don’t think the elder brother has a real disease. It’s a mistake to go out in the foggy morning.
Maybe it was an external disease (evil disease), something rushed (possessed). Grandma had never experienced anything like this before, so she hurriedly asked: Village chief, what do you think we can do about this? The village chief looked at grandma’s anxious look.
She couldn't bear to say: Don't be afraid, big sister, don't we still have Jitai Zhenren to protect us? Jitai Zhenren can pinch and calculate, and can also cure evil diseases. Tomorrow, ask your sister-in-law to follow you and bring a few kilograms of red sorghum, and please go up the mountain.
He came down to see the elder brother."
After hearing this, I finally found the information I really wanted from the layers of fog. This story was related to the real person Jitai, so I had to check it out.
"I was worried that I didn't have a suitable focus to investigate, but I didn't expect you to come to the door yourself." I said secretly in my heart, "There are many exaggerations in this story. First, it was said that Chuxin's grandfather accidentally entered the ghost market, and then moved out.
Master Jitai came to save lives and heal the wounded. This sounds like an advertisement packaged by himself. Just ask Master Jitai to enjoy the worship and belief of the altar village for generations. He must show some "miracles" to be able to do so.
It’s so convincing, if he had such a great political achievement, the common people wouldn’t all worship him like a god!”
Thinking of this, I made my own analysis of the whole story. This is most likely a play written and directed by Jitai Zhenren. The legend of this "Ghost Collection" has a deep influence in the Jitai Village area.
, indicating that Jitai Zhenren mainly uses this tool to control the spiritual world of villagers.
"The village chief and other villagers said a few more words of relief. Seeing that nothing happened, they all went home to have lunch. Before the village chief left, he asked Ma Lian to help keep an eye on it. Grandma was grateful, but she
When she left, because she had to take care of her grandfather and two children, she didn't do much to persuade her to stay. She stayed at her grandmother's house, comforting her father and uncle who kept crying, and comforting her grandmother. That night, her grandmother was gone all night.
Sleeping, she kept changing towels and fanning her grandpa. As soon as it got light, grandma was about to go out. Unexpectedly, it was another foggy morning. Grandma went into the cellar and took out two jars of home-brewed red sorghum, and filled it again.
Dozens of eggs were given to the old man when he was going up the mountain. The eggs were prepared by grandpa when he was preparing for grandma's confinement, but grandma was never willing to eat them, so they came in handy this time. Although grandma has not stayed in this village for a few years
, but also know
He said that it was abnormal to have such heavy fog for two consecutive days. There was no other way but to wait until the fog dissipated before I dared to go out. Finally, the fog dissipated and the sun had risen high. Grandma sent her father and second uncle to Wang Qingshan.
At home, my wife named Wang Qingshan helped take care of me. I went back and took a look at my unconscious grandpa before I left with peace of mind."
Although Chu Xin has told a lot of plots related to her grandfather, it seems a bit delayed when it comes to the key points. Like what kind of eggs, coaxing children, these irrelevant plots are filled in, even if they can play a certain role in the full story
The effect of the plot, but if it is too much, it will make people doubt the authenticity of the story.
"Ma Lian was anxiously waiting for her grandma at home. The two chatted for a few words and, not daring to waste any more time, went to Jitai's home. At that time, the village had not yet built a road directly to the top of the mountain. Although the mountain was not high, it was
The road up was extremely difficult to walk, with only a winding path. Both sides of the road were covered with Lala vines and wormwood that were as tall as a person. If you didn't protect your face and walked back and forth, your head would be scraped into a gourd of blood.
In this way, Ma Lian and her grandma supported each other and arrived at Jitaizhen's home. As soon as they arrived at the door, grandma and Ma Lian were a little tired. They sat on the big rock on the hillside and rested for a while. Looking down, there was a small river at the foot of the mountain.
A small boat passed slowly along the river. There were several houses on both sides of the river, and there was a faint smoke from their cooking stoves."
I guess that a lot of words and ink are used here to exaggerate the environment near Jitaizhen’s home in order to show Jitaizhen’s Taoism. Generally speaking, the residence chosen by such a Taoist person is also a place with excellent Feng Shui. The so-called front has
Having a support at the back refers to this kind of place.
"After a while, grandma and Ma Lian wiped the sweat on their faces with their sleeves, got up, picked up the eggs and wine jar, and went straight to the real person's home. When they got closer, they found a huge black dog tied up in the yard.
Seeing the stranger arriving, he kept barking. Someone in the house heard the sound and pushed the door open. He saw an old man in his seventies with a kind face. After seeing Ma Lian and grandma, he happily said: Ma Lian is here, come in quickly.
Enter the house quickly. Grandma and Ma Lian walked into the old man's house one after another. As soon as grandma entered the house, she saw a statue of a god enshrined in the front of the front room, and a simple iron sword hanging on the wall on the right.
The two came to the main room and put down the wine jar and eggs in their hands. After Ma Lian sat down, she said slowly to the old man: Master, I came here to ask you to help this big girl's man see a doctor. After Ma Lian finished talking about grandma
He picked up the two jars of wine and eggs that he brought from home and said: Our family is poor and we don’t have much to gain. Please take these two jars of wine and these eggs first. When the old man saw the wine and eggs that grandma brought, he said:
You're welcome, girl. I'll keep the wine first. You can take the eggs back. I see that your face is pale and the fetal air has not dissipated from your body. Maybe you just gave birth not long ago. It's important to take these eggs back to replenish your body. Oh, I'm really sorry for you.
Come on, I'll go and take a look with you. Grandma thanked her gratefully."
When I heard this, I was a little puzzled. It was not that I doubted that the real person on the altar in this story appeared as a kind and kind old man, but I was surprised that the real person Jitai at that time was already an old man of eighty years old. After so many years, if
If Master Jitai was still alive, how old would he be? Could he really be the one looking for Wang Qiang?
