Half a month ago, I went back to my hometown, but this time it almost killed me.

And this accident also changed my life completely.

I was born in a small village near Jinyun Mountain, and I dropped out of school at the age of 18 and went out to work.

In the past two years, I have been wandering around, I haven't saved a penny, and I haven't found a girlfriend, so my grandfather asked me to go back to the village to develop.

I said that there is a Mao development in the village, with mountains on my head and fields on my bottom, so I don't want to be trapped in the village as a farmer for the rest of my life.

But my grandfather said that this time I had to come back, because my uncle's son was getting engaged, and although I was a foreigner, I had to go back to the village to say hello to my uncle.

I had no choice but to go back.

It happened the day after I went home, and my grandfather asked me to go to the persimmon tree at the edge of the field to pick a few persimmons and let my grandmother make persimmons.

Climbing the tree was a breeze for me, but I didn't expect that the branches of the persimmon tree had been hollowed out by insects, and as soon as I climbed up, I stepped on the branches.

With a snap, I fell to the ground like a pile of stinky shit.

Fortunately, the branches are not high, otherwise I would have died young.

Originally, it wasn't a big deal to fall, but there was a land temple under the persimmon tree, and when I fell, I happened to collapse the land temple.

The land temple in the countryside is made of simple tiles and stones, and now there are very few, and in the past there was basically one for a few hundred meters.

When I was young, I asked my grandfather why there was so much land in our village? According to my understanding on TV, a place only needs one piece of land.

My grandfather didn't know how to explain it to me, anyway, he said that the more land, the better, so as to bless Bailu Village with good weather and good weather.

After I collapsed the Land Temple, I also felt that I couldn't go, after all, this is someone's mansion, so I quickly rebuilt the Land Temple, and bowed, saying that I am young and ignorant, don't be surprised.

I don't know who put the incense candles and money paper next to me, so I will burn them when I take them, hoping that the land lord will not blame me.

Originally, I didn't believe in these strange things, but I grew up hearing a lot of strange rumors, so I still prefer to believe them.

After all of that, I didn't take it to heart.

When I went back that night, I had a dream in which my uncle's son, my eldest cousin, came to me covered in blood, as if he had been stabbed several times.

He also said that I ruined his good deeds and asked me to be buried with him.

I didn't deal with my eldest cousin since I was a child, his father was the head of the village, rich and powerful, I was a child without a father, this grandson had bullied me since he was a child, I didn't like him at all.

So I think it's normal to have such dreams.

I reckon he dreams that I'm going to kill him sometimes.

But the next day I heard a piece of news that made my scalp tingle, my eldest cousin was drinking in the town last night, had a conflict with a group of second-rate people, and was stabbed to death by the other party's people.

The body is still parked at the funeral parlor in the town.

I blew up when I heard it, fuck, couldn't it be that my cousin came to say goodbye to me in a dream last night?

When my grandfather and grandmother heard the news, they almost fainted, my grandfather already had high blood pressure, so I quickly swallowed the blood pressure medicine for him, so he did not have a stroke.

My grandfather and grandmother were in tears, and they discussed going to the town to have a look, and let me keep watch at home.

My face was pale, and my heart was like fifteen buckets of water—seven up and eight down,, my dreams wouldn't be so smart, would they?

I don't like him, but he's my cousin.

Not long after my grandparents left, a thin and tall man in black came to the door, with a wrinkled donkey face, and I knew who it was at a glance, it was Liu Buchen.

This old man is a capable person in Bailu Village, he can read feng shui characters, and he can also look at appearances, and the most powerful one is that he is a bone picker.

He approached me more than once to take me as his apprentice, but I wasn't interested at all.

"Zheng Shanhe, don't you know that a catastrophe is coming?" Liu Buchen stood at the door and said gloomily, I said you fart, isn't it good for Lao Tzu?

Liu Buchen sneered disdainfully, saying that you overwhelmed the Land Temple yesterday, and burned other people's birthdays, you killed Li Qingsong, do you think you ran away?

As soon as I heard what he said, my chrysanthemum was tight, how could this old immortal know these things, dare to love the paper money I burned yesterday is my cousin's birthday?

I'm lost, cousin, your mother is sick, what are you doing in the Land Temple?

"You old bastard, talking nonsense, what does this have to do with me? Don't try to trick me into being your apprentice again. I scolded aggressively, but in fact my legs were swinging.

Liu Buchen said that if you don't believe me, he turned around and walked out.

I said I was not afraid, but in fact, I was scared to death, and rural children could not believe in these things, but they must definitely have a sense of awe, so I hurriedly followed.

Liu Buchen took me to the land temple and said Look, there is a bottle here, and in it is Li Qingsong's nails and hair.

I looked down and saw that there was indeed a glass bottle containing nails, hair, and red cloth.

Now I already have eight points of faith, so I hurriedly asked Liu Buchen: Master Liu, what does my cousin want to do?

"Stay alive. Liu Buchen coldly spit out two words, I was startled, and said You're not kidding, are you?

Liu Buchen nodded and said: "It's true, it's just that you don't know, Li Qingsong is a premature character, your uncle has looked for me many times and asked me to change his life, where do I have that ability, so I didn't agree." ”

But he didn't know where he heard about this evil method of using yin to nourish yang, and wanted to give Li Qingsong a new life. ”

Liu Buchen sighed and said: This is an evil art that has been punished by God, but it can't be broken casually, otherwise it will cause big trouble, and you can be regarded as doing a good thing for the village.

"But you kid is unlucky, he happened to smash the things in the Land Temple, and burned Li Qingsong's birthday, so he will die, and if he dies, he will find you. ”

The more Liu Buchen said, the more serious it became, I was stupid, what the is this called, Lao Tzu is too unlucky.

"Please save me!" I knelt down.

Didn't Liu Buchen always want to take me as an apprentice? I now worship him as a teacher, and I guess he won't let me die like this.

When I pass this hurdle, I won't learn from him, and when the time comes, I will still go to Guangzhou to prostitute and lose contact, wouldn't it be happy?

"Get up! I promise you. Liu Buchen agreed without saying a word, as if he had been waiting for me to make a statement.

"Master, then what should I do now?" I was not ashamed, I just changed my words, now in this situation, don't call Master, let me call Dad.

Life and death are at stake, not to mention any discipline and backbone.

"Stop, don't call me Master, I naturally have my intentions to accept you as an apprentice, you can call me anything, but you just can't call Master. Liu Buchen waved his hand.

I thought to myself, you're a and still playing music.

"Then Master Liu, what should I do now?" If you don't call, you won't call, anyway, I don't mean it.

Liu Buchen took out a gray-white compass and looked at it, saying that this is the place where you sit and go to the unitary, fall in the earthquake palace, and the unitary is the place of immortality of Ding Huo, due west, and belongs to gold.

According to the pattern of the left green dragon and the right white tiger, the West is the main kill, but here it is the land of eternal life, and the white tiger bows its head, and there is indeed a set.

I didn't understand this, so I hurriedly asked: Master Liu, don't talk about these unfathomable things, let's talk about what I should do first?

Liu Buchen glanced at me and said Don't think that Lao Tzu doesn't know what the hell you are doing, but I want to tell you, you put away your little caution as soon as possible, and enter the business of a bone picker, and you can't afford the consequences if you give up halfway.

Alas, Liu Buchen is really powerful, as smart as I am, he actually saw through it.

I said let's learn, but should we save my dog's life first?

Liu Buchen said that you are afraid of a ball, with me, you go to sleep with me tonight, live with me for half a month first, and I will keep your.

I whispered, well, then.

I hope Old Man Liu doesn't have a habit of breaking his sleeves.

I said then I will call my grandfather to say it, Liu Buchen waved his hand and said that it was okay, he would greet his grandfather.

In this way, I followed Liu Buchen back to the place where he lived, the most remote place in the village, at the foot of the mountain.

After I went back, Liu Buchen threw me a book called "The Book of Green Dead Ghosts", which was full of knowledge about the earth's leylines and many descriptions of looking at the earth and arguing corpses.

I asked him if the bone picker was particularly scary, and Liu Buchen said that it would be like that, but there are many mountain spirits and ghosts in the mountains, and if you don't do it well, you will lose your life.

In addition to these, there are two things in the mountains that cannot be provoked, one is the mandrill, and the other is the mandrill.

Liu Buchen told me some taboos for bone pickers, and then asked me to go to the place he designated in the courtyard to read, under a tree, until it was dark.

In order to save my life, I had to do it, even if I didn't want to.

The time soon came to night, and as soon as night fell, I heard my cousin's miserable voice coming from all directions: Zheng Shanhe, Zheng Shanhe, you can't escape, I worship the land lord as a godfather now, you must pay for my life!
