Chapter 104: Secret Marriage, Bet
After everyone moved out of the barren mound tun, the whole barren mound tun was directly barren, there was no human population, only some dead trees and dilapidated houses, and barren mounds all over the ground.
Even after moving out, some people want to try to go to the barren mound again, but they find that they can't find the way before, and some only have patches of weeds and a glimpse of the miserable white walls.
However, the old man of the village said that that place was too evil, and it must be some Feng Shui strange man (Master Ming) who used a spell to seal the barren mound tun, so no one entered.
Those who can enter the barren mound are not ordinary people.
However, in my dream, in addition to the big red sedan chair, I also vaguely saw a rickety figure, her head half sideways, an old face crawling with wrinkles, cracked teeth and a smile, not to mention how terrifying.
"Grandma...... In addition to Cui Zhi, I also saw ...... Huang Matchmaker ......"
I am like a frightened rabbit, after waking up this time, I suddenly remembered a lot of things, this yellow matchmaker is not a good type, I still remember that the yellow matchmaker is a matchmaker in the neighboring village, in addition to being a matchmaker, but also doing some yin things, but at that time she was not as famous as my grandmother, secretly jealous of my grandmother, and even wanted to harm my grandmother, but she was resolved by her grandmother one by one.
Later, Mrs. Huang stretched out her magic hand to me, and I still remember that when I was five years old, she pretended to be loving, gave me candy to eat, and said that she would take me to a place.
I didn't know that Mrs. Huang actually coaxed me to the wilderness, wanted to gouge out my eyes, and then threw me into the well, but fortunately Uncle Ming saw it at that time, so he followed all the way, just to stop Mrs. Huang's evil deeds.
Uncle Ming was very angry, thinking that this woman was going to gouge out my eyes and throw herself into the well, so he felt afraid, so he handed this woman over to the village chiefs of the two villages, because Huang Matchmaker was from a neighboring village.
I remember that at that time, the village chief came forward to speak about any major matters in the village, of course, and it is still now, in short, Huangquan Village is in a somewhat closed world.
To get back to the point, the yellow matchmaker was handed over to the hands of the two village chiefs, and the village chief of the neighboring village couldn't hold his face, and at that time I remember that the people from the two villages came, and everyone was very angry, thinking about who had no children at home, and this yellow matchmaker actually used this method to endanger the children, and was also worried that something would happen to her own children.
asked for severe punishment of the yellow matchmaker, and the two village chiefs agreed at that time to burn the yellow matchmaker, but the grandmother interceded for the yellow matchmaker, thinking that she also went to eat in the yin, and she couldn't bear it.
In the end, under the agreement of the two village heads, it was decided to expel Huang Matchmaker from the two villages forever and never return.
Later, as I grew up, the matter of Huang Matchmaker gradually faded out of my memory, because over the years, there has been no news of Huang Matchmaker, everyone thought that she must have died outside, and I was in a dream before, dreaming of this person, my heart was shocked, and I threw a look at my grandmother for help.
"Hmph, this old thing, I didn't expect it, now I'm a ghost matchmaker!"
Grandma's white face was an indifferent face, as if she had seen through everything.
"Grandma, what is a ghost matchmaker?"
Grandma half-squinted her eyes, a blue light overflowed from her grandmother's eyes, she looked at the night outside the window, and said in a deep voice: "Ghost matchmaker, this is a mysterious and soon lost profession, but this line does exist, three hundred and sixty lines, the line is the champion, but each line has rules and taboos for each line, but some people do not abide by the taboos in yin and yang at all, and make mess around at will." ”
"Ghost matchmaker!"
I sighed, and it was the first time I heard these three words, but my grandmother said, this ghost matchmaker, to put it in layman's terms, is a matchmaker, and gives people marriage, but the matchmaker here is by no means an ordinary matchmaker, because they are matchmakers for the dead, for example, sometimes, they will also find ghost wives for the living, of course, this is the case of the independent willingness of both parties, for example, Zhang San's wife died, but he loved her wife very much, and he couldn't let go of this relationship, and the other party was like this, and then the matchmaker would summon the soul of the other party's wife, Let them get married, but the ghost wife can only come out at night.
However, there is such a thing as a living person looking for a ghost wife, and a ghost matchmaker with professional ethics will tell you in three ways, and the big living person looking for a yin person to be his wife will be bad luck after all, and it will also affect the fortune.
To put it simply, what the ghost matchmaker does is actually a ghost marriage, also known as a yin marriage.
Secret marriage, in fact, is to find a spouse for the deceased, and some young boys and girls die for some reason after they are engaged. At that time, the old people believed that if they did not marry them, their ghosts would make trouble and disturb the family. Therefore, it is necessary to hold a funeral marriage ceremony for them, and finally bury them together, become husband and wife, and bury them together. lest there be a lonely grave in the fields of the two houses of men and women. There are also boys and girls who die before they are engaged. Out of love and longing for their children, the old people think that they failed to choose a mate for them (her) before they died, and they should marry them (her) after death and fulfill their responsibilities as parents. In fact, this is the sustenance of human feelings.
In addition, in the old days, people were generally superstitious about the so-called cemetery "feng shui", thinking that the appearance of a lonely grave would affect the prosperity of the descendants of the family, and because the villages next to us Huangquan Village were relatively backward, so until now, this kind of ghost marriage has always existed, so it has derived the profession of ghost matchmaker.
However, Huang Ruhua's ghost matchmaker is different, because a normal ghost matchmaker not only has to say matchmaking, but also has to be a guarantor, and even has to sign a yin-yang contract, but Huang Ruhua is unruly, forcibly pulling away a living unmarried girl to be a ghost wife, which has already violated the principle of yin and yang.
"Grandma, I don't know what you're going to test Xiao Zhi...... But in order to save me, he actually went to the barren mound tun, that ...... Mrs. Huang is so vicious, I'm afraid...... Woohoo......"
When I said this, tears wet my little face, I know everything Cui Zhi did for me, how can I not be sad and sad.
However, on Huang Xiaolian's side, he chased Huang Yu'er all the way, but Yu'er ran into the dense jungle and never came out again.
"Daughter, it's not good to be a father, it's my mistake, I shouldn't have beaten you, come out quickly!"
Huang Xiaolian stuck her waist and shouted for a long time, but this Yu'er just didn't come out, Huang Xiaolian also knew Yu'er's temper, so she had to give up, sighed, and said: "My good daughter, since you don't see your father, then your father will leave......"
Huang Xiaolian walked three times and turned around, seeing that her daughter really didn't come out to see herself, she sighed and said: "Daughter, let's do it, for your happiness, I will have a fair competition with Uncle Ming, for your father to represent you, Uncle Ming represents Mengmeng, if you lose for your father, let Uncle Ming tell Mengmeng, let Mengmeng give up Cui Zhi, if you lose for your father, you don't want to pester Cui Zhi, what!" ”
