Chapter 199: Cure the Disease and Cure the Root

87_87408But when I saw him this time, although I still remembered this person Wang Dezi, his face was no longer round, replaced by high and raised forehead bones on both sides because he was too thin, and the wrinkles of his face were so deep that he could trap flies, and the whole person looked very haggard, and he was more than ten years older than people of the same age.

Wang Dezi greeted him, and the clothes he was wearing were still patched, which had already been washed white, but it didn't look shabby but quite neat.

He watched Li Xianzheng and the three of them coming, and his bitter face finally changed a little, as if a person in despair saw the brilliance of hope in a thin crack, and grinned.

I saw him smile flatteringly, carefully took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, opened it gently, and took out one, as if he was afraid that a piece of tobacco would fall to the ground, and the whole action was extremely serious, just like a woman taking out precious jewelry from a brocade box.

Li Xianzheng deliberately looked at the pack of cigarettes, and it seemed that he had smoked a little half, but the white part of the cigarette shell had turned a little yellow, which showed how long this pack of cigarettes had been bought.

Seeing Wang Dezi's attentive appearance, Li Xianzheng seemed to be able to imagine the situation when he put the vegetables on the oil tank to be smoked.

"You're finally here, but I'm in a hurry." Wang Dezi said, and carefully handed the cigarette to Li Xianzheng, who was walking in front.

Li Xianzheng bowed his hand and said with excuses: "No, don't be so polite." ”

Wang Dezi seemed to have expected him to say this, and hurriedly put the cigarette back into the cigarette case carefully, and the whole action was done in one go, it seemed that he had "practiced" a lot.

Li Xianzheng looked at Wang Dezi's coherent language movements, and saw that he was still so stingy and stingy, and couldn't help but feel a little funny.

"My daughter-in-law told you about the situation, right?" While walking, Wang Dezi said.

"Having said that, we want to see what's going on?" Li Xianzheng replied.

A few people were walking through the entrance of the village, and suddenly a middle-aged man walked slowly from the front.

When Wang Dezi saw the man, he stopped, smiled almost brightly, bent down slightly, and shouted: "Village chief, what wind is blowing you?" ”

When the man saw Wang Dezi, he waved his hand casually and said, "What else can there be?" No, I heard that you have invited a feng shui master, or your own relative, so I came to take a look. ”

After speaking, you looked at Li Xianzheng and the three of them, first swept his eyes around them, and finally stopped at Li Xianzheng, and said, "You are Xianzheng, right?" ”

"How do you know me?"

"Why don't I know you!" The middle-aged man smiled and said, "You may not know me, but I know you, and I know your father!" You two really look alike, it's just carved out of a mold. ”

"Do you know my dad again?" When did I have so many acquaintances, could this be some of my relatives who I don't remember? Li Xianzheng was sweating a little.

"Haha, of course I know your father, we're still good buddies! Your father and I knew each other at dinner, but you had already gone to the army at that time and had never seen me, but I always heard your father mention you! The middle-aged man patted Li Xianzheng's shoulder and said with a smile.

Li Xianzheng knew that since he went to the army for so many years, he did not know much about the situation at home after being discharged from the army and being considered by the outside world to have mental problems.

Wang Dezi spoke at this time, "Village chief, let Xianzheng go to my house first, you guys are reminiscing later, okay?" ”

"When is this? It's dark and night, and people come over after a day's work, and they don't have to drink saliva, so you let someone else do something? When the village chief heard this, he said with a little displeasure.

Don't think that he doesn't know what kind of calculus Wang Dezi is having, isn't he reluctant to let Rang spend the night at home, and he will have to eat and entertain guests tomorrow morning? Wang Dezi is really getting more and more stingy.

"You see what you said, I don't just" Wang Dezi was a little embarrassed when he saw through his careful thinking.

"Isn't that it?" The village chief felt impatient when he saw his picking-and-searching appearance, "Okay, let's do it first, you guys will go to my house first, and tomorrow morning, then go to see Feng Shui." ”

Seeing the village chief's arrangement, Wang Dezi breathed a sigh of relief, anyway, he didn't need to entertain people, as long as they helped watch the feng shui, he didn't care much about where and how to live.

So, Li Xianzheng and the others stayed at the village chief's house that night.

In the middle of the night, everyone went to sleep, and in the countryside, they were generally ready to rest after watching dark, and they went to bed relatively early.

At twelve o'clock, Wang Dezi came here to ask Li Xianzheng and others for help.

When Wang Dezi came, everyone fell asleep, and he slapped the wooden door loudly outside, and shouted loudly while banging on the door: "Xianzheng!" Come and save my baby, get up and help me see, my baby is in trouble! "It took a while before there was a noise in the wooden door.

"What's wrong? What's wrong? "The one who opened the door was the village chief and his wife who lived downstairs.

"Hurry up and let Xianzheng get up and help me, my baby has a magic barrier." Wang Dezi stepped forward and replied panting.

At this time, Li Xianzheng and the three of them also came downstairs with their clothes on.

Seeing Li Xianzheng, Wang Dezi seemed to see a life-saving straw, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly rushed over and said, "Hurry up and save my baby?" ”

Li Xianzheng and the others were still a little sleepy-eyed, and when they heard him arguing like this, they had to rub their brows and ask, "What's going on?" You make it clear first. ”

"My baby, suddenly got into a demonic obstacle." Wang Dezi still repeated this sentence.

When Liu Wanyan, who was standing behind, heard this, he hurriedly grabbed Wang Dezi's hand, pulled him out, and asked, "Uncle, tell me carefully, what happened?" ”

Wang Dezi looked at Liu Wanyan, who was not very familiar, hesitated a little, looked at Li Xianzheng, saw him nodded and said, "Uncle, say it quickly, my companion knows more than me." ”

Hearing Li Xianzheng say this, Wang Dezi also said directly: "My little son, after dinner, he began to be in a daze, and he didn't pay attention to anyone who came to talk, until he was ready to rest, we always heard the sound of banging inside, we went to the room to take a look, he was actually banging his head against the wall, banging that head, no one could pull it!" ”

"Hey, you said this is ready to be done, we can't stop it, if we hit it again, then our little life will be gone!" When Wang Dezi said this, his hands couldn't help but tremble, and he didn't know whether he was anxious or sad.

While they were talking, they came to a half-old room. This house looks a little old, but the outer layer is covered with a thin layer of lime, which is a bit nondescript, not new or dilapidated, Li Xianzheng knows at a glance that this must be Wang Dezi's house.

"Wait a minute" Liu Wanyan stopped, stopped the two partners casually, handed over a small bottle containing cow tears, and said, "Wipe this first." ”

The two of them took it and carefully wiped the liquid in the bottle on the corner of their eyes.

The three of them followed Wang Dezi into the house.

As soon as they entered the house, the three of them saw Wang Dezi's daughter-in-law, that is, Aunt Chunhua.

I saw that she hugged a little boy about six or seven years old tightly, but the little boy was glazed, his face was facing the wall, and he smashed his head with hatred against the rough wall.

The moonlight outside shines through the windows, cold and silent, and in the distance, the call of owls seems to be singing a sad song in mourning for the dead, and the various insects hidden in the dirt are also noisy and cooperative, creating an eerie and chilling atmosphere.

The boy in the room was like a wind-up rag doll, and he slammed his head against the wall, and the old lady who hugged him was crying in distress.

This is the scene that Wang Dezi saw when he entered the house, but he was helpless, he could only be annoyed like an ant on a hot pot, and he could only be anxious in the house.

And Liu Wanyan and the three of them saw a different scene.

Behind the boy was a little boy, and the cold moonlight shone through his face, allowing the three people on the side to see it clearly.

With dry and panicked sparse hair, short and thick eyebrows, as if roughly drawn with inferior charcoal, below are small black eyes like beans, and their faces are as white as if they have been hit with thick white powder, and their mouths are indeed vermilion.

He was wearing a wide red shirt, which looked empty, because it was too wide, the red shirt was covered below the knees, and the feet were covered with small red shoes, and the toes were padded, like a dead man lying in a coffin, which looked very scary.

Next to the little boy was a little girl in a red dress with a goat comb. Both children have pointed ears, like bats.

I saw the little boy standing behind the big boy, on tiptoe, pushing the head of the seven or eight-year-old boy again and again, and hitting the wall, banging sound one after another, the strength was surprisingly great, the woman next to him was holding the boy with a broken head and bleeding, no matter how to stop it, the little boy was still pushing the big boy and laughed.

The little girl with goat braids on one side saw this, her eyes were rolling, and she was so excited that she clapped her hands on the side.

The boy who was pushed was staring blankly, as if he didn't feel pain at all, and let the little boy behind him push him, silently, like a puppet doll without thinking and being manipulated.

It turned out that the boy from Wang Dezi's family did not commit any magic obstacles to hit the wall, but was pushed by the infant spirit behind him to hit the wall again and again.

Persuade ghosts to fight ghosts

Seeing this, Liu Wanyan shouted: "Stop!" ”

When the two boys and girls heard the sound, they really stopped, turned their little heads, and stared at Liu Wanyan tightly with four dripping black eyes, as if they were a little surprised that someone could actually see themselves.

I saw Liu Wanyan step forward and shouted: "Little friend, if you go on like this, this little brother (referring to Wang Dezi's son) will not be able to stand it, and if he hits it again, he will be dead."

"Hehe, if you're dead, you're dead, we're dead anyway, so come down to play with us." The little boy replied in a milky voice, and although it was still a child's voice, it seemed a little hollow in the night sky.

"Then think about it, how sad your parents were when you died? Their unexpected death is something they don't want to see, and in the same way, if this little brother is gone, the parents will be just as sad. Liu Wanyan was patient and explained in a low voice.

The boy lowered his head, as if to think about the question again.

Seeing this, Liu Wanyan continued to lobby gently like an elder, "I know that you are usually lonely, and no one sets off firecrackers to burn paper money and incense during the New Year's Festival, it's not that your parents don't like you, it's because they are so sad to lose you, and they are sad when they think of you, so they don't go to see you." However, if you let go, I promise you that your parents will often visit you, talk to you, and set off firecrackers to burn paper money and incense. ”

At this time, the wind rose outside the house, blowing the trees outside the house, slapping the lush branches and leaves to a rustle, and with the terrible sound of the wind writhing and driving away, the shadows of the trees reflected outside the house danced, like a group of demons dancing, like the voice of a heart that was struggling and hesitating.

The boy hesitated, his pale cheeks recovering some of the gentle curves, not as hideous and terrifying as he had just seen.

"Do you think that if you make trouble and harm people, your parents will care about you? No, they just hate you more and don't want to see you even more. Liu Wanyan sighed and spoke in a half-confessed and half-gentle voice.

The boy quietly listened to Liu Wanyan's reasoning, and seemed to be hesitating.

At this time, the girl with the goat's pigtail spoke and said loudly: "Liar, you liar!" They don't care about us at all, they just ignore us with new kids. ”

When the boy heard this, he raised his head sharply again, and his two small black eyes stared at Liu Wanyan to see what he said.

Liu Wanyan smiled bitterly and said: "They are really not like this, think about it, how sad they are when you are gone, they also want a child to make up for the pain of losing you." “

"Liar, you liar, they just don't want us, they don't want us, you dare to liar." The girl didn't listen to Liu Wanyan's words at all, her expression was a little crazy, and she shouted to herself.

Liu Wanyan saw that the girl didn't listen, and he knew that he couldn't make sense with her, so he could only take advantage of the girl's anger to quietly take out a piece of rune paper sprinkled with rice wine from his arms, brush it, and throw it forward.

The rune paper flew quickly in front of the girl like an arrow off the string, and after seeing the girl's scream, she fell to the side violently, screaming in pain.

The boy on the side was still hesitating, but when he saw that his companion was injured by the spirit rune, he turned his face into a blue strange flame, and quickly flew in the direction of Liu Wanyan.

Liu Wanyan saw the ghost fire formed by the infant spirit attacking, and took out the spirit rune and sprinkled it, and as soon as the blue weird flame touched the spirit rune, it would float in the air in the shape of a little boy.

"Hold him down." Liu Wanyan shouted when he saw that the ghost fire had turned back into a boy.

When Cheng Buxing and Li Xianzheng on the side heard this, they hurriedly pounced and pressed the little boy to the ground.

And after the boy was pressed, he kept struggling, his strength was surprisingly great, Cheng Buxing was almost kicked by him, fortunately, Li Xianzheng was in the army, and his strength was much greater than that of ordinary people, but Rao was also sweating like this, and the two big men almost couldn't hold down the boy.

Liu Wanyan just wanted to go up and submit the boy, but he saw that the girl who had just been knocked to the ground had already stood up, howling with a hideous face, and flew towards Cheng Buxing and Li Xianzheng, who were holding the boy.

As soon as it seemed that it was too late to stop it, Liu Wanyan could only remind him and said, "Be careful." ”

But it was still a step too late, and I only heard a muffled snort of "oops", and saw the girl with goat braids bump into Li Xianzheng.

Li Xianzheng reflexively trembled his shoulders because of the sudden and powerful impact, and his hands couldn't help but relax a little bit of strength.

The boy's hand was loosened a little, so he struggled harder, and suddenly, the two men were careless, and the boy really broke free.

When the girl saw that the boy had broken free, she hurriedly took his hand, and the two little ghosts held hands and walked around, and suddenly a cool breeze blew, and the two ghosts disappeared together and disappeared.

Liu Wanyan was not in a hurry, but just caught up and walked a few steps, looked at the open wooden door, and walked back and said, "They have already left." ”

When the other two people heard this, they breathed a sigh of relief, and Cheng Buxing was still wiping his sweat and muttering: "Hey, I didn't expect these two little ghosts to be quite difficult!" ”

Li Xianzheng didn't speak, but turned his head as if he remembered something and looked at Wang Dezi and his wife in the room.

Wang Dezi and his wife were shocked when they saw the blue ghost fire. Now he was sitting on the ground, trembling, and he didn't even dare to breathe too much, and he was already so frightened that he didn't make a sound.

There was only a faint moonlight around, and the faint and cold Guangxi was thrown into the house and hit Wang Dezi and his wife in the face, their faces had long been frightened and turned white, and at this time, they looked more like two ghosts.

Liu Wanyan was frightened when he saw them, and he looked a little stunned.

So he walked over and muttered a few words to Cheng Buxing, and the two of them walked up to the husband and wife respectively, shook the void with their right hands, and then made a small circle, grabbed the air in the middle, and shouted: "Come back!" ”

Suddenly, Wang Dezi and his wife came back to their senses, and got up from the ground with a grunt, with some panic in their eyes.

After Li Xianzheng saw the movements of the two companions, he felt a little puzzled, and he didn't know what they were doing.

Liu Wanyan on the side saw Li Xianzheng casting a curious gaze at him, as if he knew what he wanted to ask, so he explained: "The couple were so frightened that they lost their soul just now, and as soon as Cheng Buxing and I shouted, we called them back." ”

It turned out that this was the case, and Li Xianzheng suddenly realized.

"This method is called soul shouting, which was a kind of soul calling ritual of the Han people in the old days." Liu Wanyan explained to him, adding, "For example, if a child is sick due to fright, the relatives in the family, usually direct relatives, parents or grandparents, will call his name everywhere nearby, to call the person's soul back." This is called shouting souls, and in some places it is also called shouting shock! ”

Cheng Buxing also helped popularize knowledge to Li Xianzheng: "Sometimes, due to the differences in regional customs, the way of shouting souls is also different. ”

For example, people in Dongguan, Guangdong, they like to burn a few sticks of incense and paper under the eaves, at the head of the bed or in a frightened place, swing their children's clothes back and forth above the flame, hold a kitchen knife or scissors in their hands, slap them on the ground, and then scatter the rice grains in all directions, and shout: "Eastern rice grain, Western rice grain, southern rice grain, northern rice grain, four big five square rice grain." A certain month and a certain day (child's name) childhood returns! Please go to the Nine Heavens Xuannu, pick up the boy Lang, and return to so-and-so! "Conjuring spirits with this."

In the Zhujiajiao area of Shanghai, the child's age is written on red paper, placed on the stove, a bowl of water is placed on the paper, and incense candles are lit and kowtowed. Then take a bucket, cover the burden, light a fire to find the spider at the foot of the club, and shout "A certain official (the eldest is the big official, the second is the second official) is back!" "Until I find two or three pythons, put them in the bucket, hold them to the child's pillow, shout as I walk, and put down the mosquito net. It took a few minutes before the tent was opened. ”

There are also places in Northeast China, North China, Nanjing and other places, which are determined by their families to be terrified and lost their souls. One called out in the name of a child, and the other called "Come back!" "Shout and shout, go to the other place. The bearer of the cloak opens his coat and shoe it, 'symbolically closes it one by one, then puts it under his armpit and shouts the name of the child, to which the other replies, 'Returned!' It means that the soul has been tied. Repeating it along the way means that the soul is considered to have been restored. ”

In fact, these methods are all feasible, and sometimes in our industry, different methods can actually achieve the same effect, and these methods are summarized by the different experiences inherited by each person's predecessors. Of course, some methods will have better results, and some will have average results, and most of these will vary from person to person," Liu Wanyan concluded with a smile.

said such a lot of things, not that they want to show off their knowledge, but that Li Xianzheng is a group with them, although he is in good health, but for this industry, he is still a newcomer, and these things are common sense that you must know as a ghost hunter.

Li Xianzheng listened to the things said by his two good friends, and secretly kept these things in his heart.

If he wants to be a real ghost hunter, he must learn from scratch, study seriously, and learn hard, not only for himself, but also for those comrades who have died in arms.

Wang Dezi and his wife on the side had already come back to their senses, and after standing up, they didn't care about patting the dirt on their pants, and immediately roared to the side of their child, picked up the boy who fell to the ground, shook it gently, and shouted: "Bao'er Bao'er, wake up." ”

Perhaps he heard his father's call, and the boy's face was covered with blood, and he looked very injured, but he really opened his eyes, with a blank look on his face, and did not say a word.

Seeing that the boy opened his eyes, the eyes of the husband and wife lit up, and they cried happily, and shouted in distress: "Bao'er, Bao'er, you scared your father to death." ”

As he spoke, the two hugged the boy in their arms hard, and the baby screamed wildly.

But the boy in their arms still had a dull look, looked at his father and mother blankly, and didn't say a word.

Cure the disease and cure the root

Looking at Wang Dezi, this child seems to be a little afraid of the cold, his body is always trembling slightly, his face is pale, his eyes are a little dull, and the whole person looks stupid.

Liu Wanyan looked at the child carefully, stepped forward and asked, "Uncle, your child doesn't look very good, is there something wrong with him?" ”

"Alas, my baby, although I didn't survive like the dolls in front of me, I was alive and kicking when I was first born, no different from the other children in the village. That's it, I don't know" Speaking of this, Wang Dezi paused, and seemed to be a little unwilling to talk about it.

"Don't know what?" Cheng Buxing couldn't help but ask in the back.

"I don't know when it started! My Bao'er became less talkative, and didn't go out to play with other village children, so she stayed at home all day, didn't talk or do anything, and as the days went on, the whole person became a little stupid, and when she got to the end, she never spoke again! Speaking of bad things, Wang Dezi couldn't help but sigh again.

"Isn't this kid born like this?" Liu Wanyan was a little skeptical and asked again.

"Of course not, this is the child I conceived and born in October, when I first gave birth, this child didn't know how clever it was!" Wang Dezi's daughter-in-law on the side immediately retorted.

"If that's the case" Liu Wanyan looked at the boy who looked a little stupid, paused, and said, "I'm just a ghost!" ”

"What? Gone? What do you mean? Can the soul still walk on its own? Wang Dezi listened and didn't seem to believe it.

This is not to blame him, many elderly farmers in the countryside have experienced the era of the Cultural Revolution and have some understanding, but they have not read books themselves, so many people are still in the stage of seeming to understand but not understand.

These people are a little superstitious and know what science is about, so many times they don't believe all the things that the old people say about the gods and ghosts, and they have to believe it.

"Wandering? Is it the same as the two of them just now? Li Xianzheng asked, and at the same time looked at Wang Dezi and his wife.

"It's the same, but it's not the same?" Liu Wanyan smiled knowingly, Li Xianzheng will draw inferences from each other.

"What do you say?" Li Xianzheng turned into a studious baby and continued to ask.

"This child's soul wandering is much more Yan zhòng than these two, depending on his situation, this state has lasted for about one to two years, according to this reasoning, this child should have at least begun to show signs of soul wandering since at least two years ago!" Liu Wanyan speculated.

"Generally, soul-wandering will happen to children, some children are born with weak yang energy, and they are easy to be looked at by some little ghosts, those little ghosts are also pitiful, they have become ghosts, but they died young, no one cares, they can't be reincarnated, and they have to be lonely and have fun everywhere." Liu Wanyan said this, also with a trace of pity.

He continued, "So they're so lonely that they play childlike pranks, and sometimes, people on good roads get tripped over for no reason, and that's what those little imps do. ”{

"Actually, they are also kind-natured, but sometimes they are too lonely, and they will also find children of the same age to play. And these children who play with them are playing with them in dreams at first, but after playing like this for a long time, these children will lose their souls, and once the soul is gone for a long time, it will be difficult to come back, and the children who have gone away will look demented like now. ”

Listening to Liu Wanyan's explanation, even Wang Dezi and his wife on the side probably knew what was going on.

"Then Master, can I still save my child's soul when he is gone?" Seeing that Liu Wanyan knew so many things, Wang Dezi suddenly changed his name and asked a little cautiously.

Liu Wanyan nodded and said, "It can be saved, but the root cause of this child's soul must be investigated, and besides, I saw those two little ghosts just now, since they can appear in your house, they probably have nothing to do with this!" ”

Seeing Liu Wanyan nodded, Wang Dezi breathed a sigh of relief, he still has such a son left, if something really happens to this son, his family will really become a dead end!

"I heard you have a daughter?" Liu Wanyan remembered that Wang Dezi's daughter-in-law said when she came to the door that they still had a son and a daughter.

"Yes, there's a big girl!" Wang Dezi scratched his head, pointed to a room near the barn at the other end, and said, "No, my eldest daughter lives in that room!" ”

To say, although Wang Dezi gave birth to seven children in a row, .......
