Chapter 056 Ridiculous Dreams
Just when I was confused, Chuxin continued: "Although Zhenren Jitai is old, he walks with a steady pace, no less than that of young people. As he walked, he asked about grandpa's symptoms. Just when he reached the middle of the mountain, Ji Tai walked with a steady pace.
Standing on the hillside of the back mountain, Tai Zhenren looked at the village in the distance, his eyes flashed, his brows furrowed, and he asked: Has anything strange happened in the village recently? When Ma Lian heard this question, she first
He was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and replied: There is nothing strange, but it feels like the fog is thicker than before, and there is a heavy fog every two days. People in the village are afraid to go out, and the crops are delayed a lot. The old man listened
After finishing her words, Ma Lian nodded with a solemn expression."
"Did Master Jitai see anything?" I asked.
Chu Xin gave up and said with a smile: "Mr. Lin, don't worry, I haven't finished speaking yet. Please listen to me and continue slowly."
I smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I interrupted you, please continue."
"Later, the nanny led Master Jitai and Ma Lian and continued to walk home. But before grandma reached home, she heard the shouts of the crowd coming from the direction of her house. Grandma heard the sound and quickly
I ran over and saw that almost half of the village had gathered in the yard of grandma’s house. When grandma saw this scene, she suddenly had a bad feeling. Grandma pushed aside the crowd and saw grandpa talking in the yard.
The village chief and several villagers were trying hard to hold down the struggling grandpa and tie him up. When grandma saw this scene,
Just as he was about to step forward, he saw Wang Qingshan's wife running over with her father and second uncle in her arms and said anxiously: Sister, you are back. Just after you left for a while in the morning, I saw a chicken coop in your yard.
I was so excited that I thought there was a chicken eating chickens. I ran over and saw that your Jieshan was lying in the chicken coop, writhing about something. When I got closer, I saw that he was biting the chicken's neck to suck blood.
, those eyes were red, like those of evil spirits from the underworld, I couldn’t see clearly, so I quickly took advantage of the fact that everyone came back at noon to come over and see what was going on. It had been stable for a while, but now it was getting troubled again. After hearing this, grandma’s eyes were filled with tears.
My eyes were filled with tears again, but I suppressed my crying again."
"This..." I said in horror.
"At this time, Master Jitai also came over. There was a commotion in the crowd, and everyone avoided it. Master Jitai's expression did not change. He just said calmly to the village chief and others: You all should let go first. The village chief saw that it was Ji Tai.
When Tai Zhenren arrived, he suddenly had a backbone. He and other villagers immediately let go of his grandfather, who was half lying on the ground struggling and roaring, and retreated into the crowd. The unfettered grandfather looked like an evil ghost with a ferocious smile and a red face.
Eyes rushed towards Master Jitai. Unexpectedly, Master Jitai neither hid nor retreated. Everyone was sweating in their hearts. The village chief and others were about to step forward to stop him, but they thought that the crazy grandpa pounced on Jitai.
When the real person was in front of him, he didn't know when there was a needle dangling in his hand. Before everyone could see clearly, grandpa was already lying on the ground twitching, and half of the silver needle on the Tianzhu point on the back of grandpa's neck was submerged. No.
When everyone came to their senses, Master Jitai shouted to everyone: Find Huang Pizi quickly within twenty feet of this yard. The villagers were all murmuring in their hearts. Originally, Huang Pizi was
It’s an evil game, and everyone in the village is taboo about it. Plus, the weasel has long since disappeared when it sees people, so where can I find it?”
"This Master Jitai is really a god. He actually defeated evil spirits with just a silver needle?" I expressed my complete surprise, and I admired Master Jitai's methods to the extreme.
"No, Master Jitai is the god of our village and the patron saint. With him, he can ensure that our village has good weather and the country and the people are safe." Chuxin said happily, "At that time, Master Jitai saw everyone's doubts.
He said, "That yellow man can't move now. If you don't catch him now, he will run away in a while, and everyone will suffer." When everyone heard this, they thought this was impossible. They picked up hoes and sticks, and went around grandma's house to find what Master Jitai said.
Huangpizi."
Although I knew that the result of the story must be to find the yellow-skinned bird, I still showed curiosity and asked: "Have you found it?"
"Not only was it found, but this yellow leather thing is also very evil!" Chu Xin changed the topic again and said: "Not a moment later, I heard someone shouting: Oh my god, here, I found it. I don't know when.
A large eagle flew from the edge of the village, hovering in the sky in the distance. Master Jitai took a look at it, thoughtfully. When everyone came to the weasel, they discovered that this yellow-skinned eagle had bright fur and a long hair on its forehead.
He had a beard and looked like an old man, but his movements were the same as the grandfather in the yard. He was lying flat on the ground and twitching constantly. He looked extremely painful. Master Jitai strode closer and looked at the man lying on the ground.
The weasel on the ground cursed angrily: What a beast! Then he asked for a piece of red cloth from everyone, wrapped it up in yellow leather, and said while wrapping it: Oh, if you don't practice well, you will come out to harm people, and you will ruin this hundred years of practice!
"
"Why is it that giant eagle again?" I continued to ask.
"Listen to me and tell you in detail." Chu Xin paused and said, "Zhenren Jitai then put Huangpizi under the big tree outside the courtyard and looked at the giant eagle in the distance. Grandma has always been by Grandpa's side.
She stood there, not daring to make any more moves, until Master Jitai pulled out the silver needle from the back of Grandpa's neck, and then he followed the others and carried Grandpa into the house. At this time, Grandma's mental arithmetic relaxed. Master Jitai looked at Grandpa again.
Pupil, said to grandma in a low voice: Although the yellow leather is removed, it seems that there is still something dirty attached to the body, and it is much worse than the yellow leather. Master Jitai is already in his seventies, although he is older than the average old man.
My body is stronger, but I have been running all the way and spent a lot of energy on lowering the yellow skin. Now my forehead is full of sweat beads. Grandma poured a cup of hot water for Jitai Zhenren and asked anxiously: Zhenren, what's the matter?
How can he be cured of his illness? Master Jitai took a sip of hot water and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hands, and said: He may have accidentally stumbled into the ghost market in the heavy fog. This ghost market
They are the ghosts of drowned people who have lingered in this river for many years. After the death of ordinary people, their essence returns to the sky, their flesh returns to the earth, and their blood returns to the water. But for those who drowned in the water, their bodies follow the flow of the river and the tides after death.
The sunset drifts up and down, unable to pass away, so I have great resentment and wander around the place where I drowned. On foggy days and when the negative energy is very heavy, I go ashore and lay down illusions. Once passers-by pass by, they will be deceived by the illusion and be deceived.
Treated as a scapegoat. Grandma seemed to understand and asked: Real person, since you are a drowned ghost, why did you get killed again?
Huang Pizi rushed up? Master Jitai said slowly: This beast has been practicing in the mountains for nearly a hundred years and will not harm anyone. It's just that your husband just escaped and his Yang Qi is extremely weak. This beast took the opportunity to confuse him.
They went into the village to suck the blood of poultry. Grandma seemed to understand, and asked: What should the master do now? Master Jitai thought for a while and said helplessly: Bring a pen and paper, and I will write you a list.
, according to the purchase above, the same cannot be left behind. As for whether he can be saved, it depends on his luck. I don’t know what kind of virtue my ancestors have accumulated, but they are still alive today when they encounter ghosts and go to the market. Grandma does not dare to waste time.
After taking the list, she went out and took a boat to the downstream town to purchase the items written on the list. Grandma looked at the list carefully and frowned, because grandma had never come into contact with the things written on it, so she didn't know if she dared to do it randomly.
purchase."
"Did you buy it?" I asked nervously.
"The town is not big, so grandma asked as she walked, and soon found the address written on the paper. But this house is extremely remote. If I didn't ask in the town, I really don't know when I would find it. The house is surrounded by the previous ones.
The bullet holes in the walls of homes that have been robbed by bandits every year are vaguely visible, but what makes grandma strange is that the summer is sultry and it is not dark yet, so the windows and doors of this house are closed, and the house has a gloomy color, which makes the whole house
It looked very ghostly. Grandma stepped forward and knocked on the door twice. No one answered, but she heard the footsteps of an old man. It seemed that every step was extremely difficult, and the soles of the shoes rubbed against the ground, making a sound of 'times and times'.
After a while, an old woman strenuously stepped out of the door. The old woman was hunched over and her face was covered with wrinkles, like dehydrated dried dates. She wore a worn-out Hanfu on her upper body and her feet
Wearing a patched three-inch golden lotus, it was very difficult to walk, as if she had just crawled out of the coffin board. She asked feebly: Girl, what's the matter? How did you find my old lady's house? After hearing this, grandma
He was stunned for a moment and said: Madam... Madam, my man had an affair. I was introduced by Master Jitai and asked me to buy some things from you. Then he handed the list made by Master Jitai to the old man.
In the hands of my wife.?"
The old lady took the order tremblingly, sighed, and said: Girl, come in with me. Grandma followed the old lady into the house. She saw that the house was full of incense, candles, yellow paper, and some Taoist methods that grandma had never seen before.
The old lady asked grandma to sit down and lit another oil lamp. With the faint light, the old lady sighed: What a ridiculous dream this is. As she spoke, two drops of dirty tears fell from her dim eyes.
It seemed like she remembered something sad. Grandma looked at it and sighed in her heart, I really don’t know what else could make a waning old man shed tears like this."
I was stunned. This sudden appearance of the character seemed to add another dramatic possibility to the story. "What is such a ridiculous dream? What exactly is this old lady referring to?" Originally I thought it was just a meaningless dream.
A guest character, but how come this old woman is now the key to turning the story around?
A series of questions linger in my mind, and I don’t know how to analyze them.
