Chapter 35 Suppressing evil is divided into inside and outside

Looking at Hua Borong and the three of them, who were still confused, Fang Ming reminded with a slight smile: "Forget what I said earlier about where evil spirits usually appear?"

"Cemetery. ”

Hua Borong's eyes lit up, "Fang Ming, what you mean is that the person who created the evil spirit is to hide a certain cemetery. ”

"That's right, it's to hide the cemetery. ”

Fang Ming also nodded, and affirmed: "The purpose of creating evil spirits like this is to hide a certain cemetery, after all, tomb robbery has been around since Lao Cao's time, not only now, but even the ancients are guarding against it." ”

"That's not right. ”

Hua Borong shook his head, "Although the store has not received stone evil spirits, it has also received a lot of jade evil spirits at the beginning, and those jade evil spirits are all excavated from the cemetery, since it is already in the cemetery, there is no need to make it like this." ”

It is also very reasonable for Hua Borong to have such doubts, just imagine, this evil spirit is already in the tomb, and the person who finds the evil spirit means that he has entered the tomb, so is there still a need to hide it?

Isn't that redundant?

"What Boss Hua said makes sense, this is really unnecessary. Song Xiong on the side also nodded in agreement.

"That's because of the peculiarity of the owner of the cemetery, which caused this evil spirit to be placed outside the cemetery. Fang Ming replied.

It is understandable that Hua Borong and Song Xiong will guess like this, because the two are not insiders, so they don't know much about some things.

"Evil spirits are mainly used to suppress tombs, so what is a good town in the cemetery, which involves two, one is inside the town and the other is outside the town, but most of the evil spirits in the cemetery are for the outside of the town. ”

"To give you a simple example, a patient has a temporary loss of strength, that is, for a period of time, the patient's hands and feet are weak, and at this time the patient's parents are going to a very distant place, the most important thing is that now the patient lives alone in a luxury villa, but outside there are many homeless people who don't even have a house, will these homeless people come in and bully the patient or even simply occupy the patient's villa?"

Fang Ming's rhetorical question made the three of Dehua Borong stunned for a moment, and then subconsciously nodded and replied, "There is a great possibility." ”

A patient who has lost his strength has a luxurious villa, not to mention those homeless people will be tempted, even some neighbors may want to plot.

So, in order to prevent the villa from being robbed, the patient's parents kept a few hunting dogs in the villa to guard the patient and the villa from being robbed by others. ”

Fang Ming's words made Dehua Borong and Song Xiong show a look of approval on their faces, and this situation is possible.

"But I don't understand. Hua Mingming suddenly interjected at this time, "You give this example is completely different, okay, it is a villa that some people will be tempted, but who will be tempted by a tomb, is it possible that there are still people who are willing to rush to sleep in the cemetery?"

Fang Ming glanced at Hua Mingming and replied meaningfully, "People are not interested, but it doesn't mean that other existences are not interested. ”

"Haha, Fang Ming, you really laughed at me, no one is interested in this cemetery, so what else will be interested in?"

Hua Ming laughed loudly, but after laughing, he found that the expressions of his old man and Song Xiong became a little strange.

"What's wrong with you?"

"In addition to people, there are also ghosts. Fang Ming answered Hua Mingming's question.

"Ghosts?" Hua Ming rolled his eyes, "Don't be kidding, how can there be any ghosts in this world? ”

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Hua Borong immediately opened his mouth to interrupt Hua Mingming's words, because only those of them who are old know that there are some things that cannot be said nonsense.

"That's what it was. ”

Hua Ming was stared at by his old man like this, and his neck shrunk, but he was still a little unconvinced, and muttered quietly on the side.

"Whether you believe it or not, there are ghosts in this world, but at least the family of the owner of the cemetery believes it, and even if there are no ghosts in this world, because many people have followed the rules that have been passed down for many years, there is a custom of releasing evil spirits in the cemetery. ”

Fang Ming did not discuss the question of "whether there are ghosts" with Hua Mingming, but continued the previous topic and said: "In the eyes of the ancients and many people, the purpose of putting evil spirits in the tomb is to ward off evil spirits, and I also said before that there are two kinds of tombs to ward off evil spirits, one is inside the town and outside the town. ”

"The so-called town is to prevent the occurrence of corpses, this kind of tomb generally has a characteristic, that is, the owner of the tomb did not die normally during his lifetime, that is, what we call birth, old age, sickness and death, which may be due to some accidents or sudden death or victimization. ”

Fang Ming's expression suddenly became serious, "There are rumors among the people that say that people who die by mistake and are killed by others have grievances, and if this grievance cannot be resolved, then the ghosts of the dead will come out to do evil. ”

Therefore, in addition to finding someone to resolve his grievances after death, such a person also needs to place something in the cemetery that can suppress grievances, and warding off evil spirits is one of the choices of most people. ”

Fang Ming's tone of voice was very serious, so that Hua Borong and Song Xiong listened carefully, and Hua Ming on the side wanted to speak, but was glared at by Hua Borong and had to shut his mouth stupidly.

"This is inside the town, and there is a kind of outside the town, and the purpose outside the town is very simple, as I gave in the previous example, which is to prevent other ghosts from occupying the magpie's nest and occupying this cemetery, and this type of tomb has a characteristic, that is, the owners of the tombs are mostly children or have birth defects, such as fools and mutes...... This kind of people. ”

Fang Ming paused when he said this, and waited until Hua Borong and the three of them had almost digested what he had said before continuing:

"I believe everyone has heard of this word: three souls and seven spirits, according to the saying that has been handed down for a long time, everyone's soul is composed of three souls and seven spirits, and once the three souls and seven spirits of a person dissipate, it means that the person is completely dead. ”

It is precisely for this reason that there is also a rumor among the people who have birth defects, such as the stupid, mute, deaf and other disabled people, because the three souls and seven spirits were damaged at birth. ”

"Then the soul of this kind of person is extremely fragile after death, and it is so fragile that it will become the target of those intact ghosts in the outside world, so in order to let the soul of this kind of person rest in peace after death, there will be relatives to place this evil spirit outside the grave to suppress the ghost outside to invade this cemetery and bully the soul of the deceased. ”

Hearing Fang Ming say this, Hua Borong suddenly realized and patted his thigh and said, "I understand, that is to say, this pair of cemetery owners who belong to ward off evil spirits should have been defective in his lifetime." ”

"That's right, the owner of the cemetery is not only flawed, but also should have been born in a rich family, and the rich family created such a special pair of evil spirits in order to prevent people from robbing the tomb. ”

Fang Ming's words made Hua Ming unconvinced, because in Hua Mingming's eyes, he felt that Fang Ming was, just looking at his old man's expression, if he directly accused Fang Ming of, he estimated that the old man would be able to split him, so after thinking for a while, Hua Mingming's eyes rolled slightly a few times, and asked:

"How do you know that if you are from a rich family, you can't be from an ordinary family? After all, a pair of stones to ward off evil spirits will not cost too much. ”

Fang Ming just smiled and didn't answer Hua Mingming's question, but Hua Borong on the side couldn't stand his son being so embarrassed, and explained with a hateful expression: "That stone to ward off evil spirits from the outside is at least an object before the early days of the Republic of China, in that era, it was not a small cost to make such a stone to ward off evil spirits." ”

"Yes, it's not nice to say, the stone lions in front of some family mansions don't have this style, and the living don't have this treatment, let alone the dead. Song Xiong also agreed with emotion at this time.

Hua Ming was silent, he forgot about this stubble, with the current technology, carving a pair of stones to ward off evil spirits is naturally not difficult and does not require much cost, but in the previous era, it required a lot of cost.

In the early days of the Republic of China, it was an era of warlord chaos, and it was difficult for ordinary people to live on their own, let alone have so much heart to take care of the dead.

And if this stone to ward off evil spirits was before the Republic of China, or even in the feudal society, it would be better to understand, the feudal society can create stones to ward off evil spirits is either the official family or the local gentry and landlords, and no matter which category belongs to the rich families at that time.

"Fang Ming, all your current explanations are based on the setting that the door is a pair of stones to ward off evil spirits, but how can you prove that it is a stone to ward off evil spirits and not a stone lion, after all, we can't believe it just based on what you say. ”

Hua Ming was still a little unwilling, Hua Borong on the side sighed in his heart, he knew that his son looked smiling on the surface, but he was also arrogant in his bones, and his too much trust in Fang Ming, who was about the same age as him, caused him to be jealous and unconvinced.

However, Hua Borong did not stop his son's questioning, because he wanted his son to be convinced by the other party, and the best way to convince Fang Ming was to use his own skills to get his son's approval.
