"When someone destroys the mountain in the village, someone immediately reports it to the village chief, and we watched those people enter the village chief's house, and when they come out again, the village chief acquiesces in this behavior, so the mountain becomes like this. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Xiao Xia has a sense of justice: "I also asked the village chief at the time, Ma Li's family is not there, why did they let people fill the mountain behind their house with stones." ”

"What did the village chief say?"

"Let me stop being nosy, and say it's because no one is there." Xiao Xia was indignant: "Eighty percent took other people's money." ”

A strong sense of intrigue came to the fore, and someone claimed that Ma Ma was dead, and built a mound for him here, and then someone dug a canal in his house to fill in the mountain behind the house, and the human factor could not be more obvious.

Zhang Tianyu leaned into Zhong Ling's ear and said, "Master, where does the water flow?" Is there someone who deliberately spoils the feng shui of the horsepower house, I heard that it can lead the anger of other people's yang house and yin house to their own, of course, the feng shui master who does this kind of thing will get the result, since ancient times, it has been bad for others. ”

Zhong Ling looked at Zhang Tianyu steadily: "Boy, thanks to you, for reminding me, I'll go and see where the water in the canal goes, and the left and right distribution of the poor mountains, you stay here first." ”

Xiao Xia became more and more confused: "What the hell is wrong?" ”

Ma Ma was stunned, he now felt trapped in a cage, and wherever he went was a dead end, what of his more than 20 years of life was natural and what was artificial?

He grabbed his hair in annoyance, and Zhang Tianyu asked Xiao Xia, "Do you have any extra room there?" As long as there are two rooms, we can pay the daily rent, this place is really uninhabitable. ”

"Of course there is, horsepower, the newly built house I got engaged to build this year is big, and there are many rooms, so you can go and live with me." Xiao Xia said happily: "I don't live with my parents anymore, it's convenient, there are beautiful women." ”

Seeing Xiao Xia's drooling appearance, Ma Li's mood inexplicably improved a lot, and he gave him an elbow: "Look at your virtue." ”

Xiao Xia suddenly grabbed Ma Li's arm and put it on his face: "Mom, there is temperature." ”

Ma Ma's face changed, and he shook off Xiao Xia's hand: "Lao Tzu is a living person!" ”

Xiao Xia smiled and patted Ma Ma's face: "It's alive, it's alive, by the way, come to me for a while to settle down your luggage, and go to the village chief's house for dinner at night, and you're dead." ”

Afterwards, everyone learned that in this place, all the old people, whether men or women, once they were seriously ill, their children and grandchildren had to wait at the bedside and take care of them day and night.

Generally speaking, there is no warning before death, only when the male patient is about to die, he should be carried into the hall as soon as possible, and he should never be allowed to die in the room. As the saying goes, "cold corpses can't enter the hall", which means that those who are out of breath outside can't be sent to the hall again.

So, when the patient is seriously ill and the hospital is in a critical state, the family will ask the doctor to give the patient oxygen and send it home!

As for the old grandmother in the rocking chair, she died in her room......

Since ancient times, the concept of patriarchy in the south has been quite heavy, and men should die in the ancestral hall, which is called "the end of life", and women should die in her room, which is called "Shou Na Nei Bed".

Only the descendants and grandchildren who are related to the ancestors can die in the hall. When the old man dies, all the descendants should kneel in front of the bed of the deceased and cry out in pain, which is the so-called "send-off".

When it comes to this, Zhong Lingqi doesn't come to one place, isn't it that his daughter-in-law has been an outsider all her life, and she doesn't even have the power to breathe in the ancestral hall?

At this time, the village chief's mother had just gone to bed!

Xiao Xia was called over by the village chief and asked him to spread the news in the village, and he met Ma Li and the others in that empty space.

"I'll take you to see something nice in the evening." Xiao Xia lowered her voice and said, "Look at the water." ”

"What's buying water?" Zhang Tianyu asked.

"Cleanse, huh?" Ma Li said.

Xiao Xia nodded, prohibiting horsepower spoilers: "Just look at it later." ”

At this time, Zhong Ling took Xiaobao to the back of the house, the water in the canal was flowing slowly, and now there were two questions that needed to be explored, first, the source of the water source, and where the water would eventually drift.

The source is clear, the ancient well in the old house of the Ma Li family, after the water is drawn out, it flows into a smaller ditch, it is already evening at this time, Zhong Ling patted Xiaobao: "Go along this ditch to see, where the water flows in the end, go and return quickly." ”

Xiaobao nodded, jumped into the water, turned into a point of light and moved forward with the water, Zhong Ling was too slow, and scolded: "You nnd, drift like this, float until midnight, you are the spirit of the earth, do you know if you are accelerating?" ”

Xiao Bao was like a torpedo after launching, rushing forward, disappearing in front of him in an instant, about a quarter of an hour later, Xiao Bao appeared: "A thousand meters forward, left and right sharply turned straight down, to another ditch, and finally fell into a mountain crack half a mile away, I went to the back of the mountain to take a look, it was another village, the water flowed into the yard of one of the families, that family can be relieved, the big stone house, like the big family in the TV series." ”

Zhong Ling was a little sure in his heart, and patted Xiaobao's head: "Get here here first today." ”

Zhong Ling walked to the poor mountain and picked up a whitish stone, there was nothing unusual, some small grass persevered and came out, showing its head slightly.

There is nothing unusual about this place, it just overwhelms the vitality and suppresses the vitality of this place.

One person and one spirit returned, took the luggage and withdrew, Zhong Ling had an idea, and received the soul of the village elder's mother into the soul bottle for later use, and was about to arrive at Xiao Xia's house, when he suddenly heard a cry not far away, "Woo woo uh", very neat, but it was a man's voice.

"I've gone buy water." Xiao Xia said.

Zhang Tianyu said: "Let's go, go over and have a look." ”

Xiao Xia reminded: "You look secretly, don't talk, don't get close, this ceremony is very important in our local area, if you collide, it is a local taboo." ”

Everyone nodded in understanding, and quietly approached, on the right hand side of the main road, there was a pond about twenty meters away, and an old man with a wrinkled face was walking there with about seven people.

Immediately behind the old man was a middle-aged man in his forties, with a rather imposing appearance, Bai Yingshan said softly: "He is the village chief, right?" ”

"Yes, village chief." Xiao Xia "shh

When the elder took the seven people to the edge of the pond, he saw the elder facing the water, threw down a few copper coins one after another, and said something in his mouth, but unfortunately it was too far away to hear it very clearly, and then the elder put the basin in his hand into the hand of the village chief.

The village chief respectfully took his hand from the pond and held it flat, saying that it was strange that when he went, the group cried undecently, but when he went back, he didn't say a word, but he was in a hurry.

Zhong Ling asked with his eyes, Xiao Xia waited until the village chief and his party were far away before saying: "Crying when you go is mourning the dead, crying when you go back is cursing the undead, if you cry on the way back after taking the Tiangen water, the family will suffer misfortune." ”

"Take the water back to cleanse yourself, is it to bathe the deceased?" Zhang Tianyu asked.

"When you go back, you can only wash it by the women of the clan, and you have to wipe the body of the corpse with the water you have taken back." Xiao Xia has rich experience: "There are three old people walking in the village this year, and I have seen a lot, and the doorway inside is clear. ”

"After washing your body, you have to put on a garment, and then burn the silver paper." Xiao Xia said: "Only relatives can be present, and outsiders can't see them." ”

Burning silver paper is also a bit interesting, with a pottery bowl filled with clean sand grains, placed under the head bed of the deceased, the children and grandchildren of the deceased including daughter-in-law, granddaughter-in-law and unmarried children, granddaughters and other Zhuge burned incense for the deceased and kowtowed, and put the incense burner, but also make the incense continuous, but never light candles in it.

The fire bowl was placed on the side of the pottery bowl, and the children and grandchildren had to constantly burn silver paper in the fire bowl one by one. Folklore believes that silver paper was burned for the dead to see the road. Finally, the paper ash in the bowl is wrapped into several small packets, commonly known as paper money. Paper money should be placed in a special V-belt and placed next to the deceased.

I have already seen the good show of buying water, Xiao Xia urged them to get home quickly, it was getting dark, and the group arrived at Xiao Xia's new home, after all, it was a newly built house, there were many rooms, and it was neat and clean, Ma Ma took out some Beijing specialties and gave them to him, making Xiao Xia so happy: "Ma Li, you are so good, I was weak when I was young, everyone bullied me, only you help me." ”

Ma Li smiled innocently: "It's a matter of the past, what are you talking about here." ”

"At that time, I really thought you were dead, and it was too hard to think about your family." Xiao Xia suddenly burst into tears: "Forget it, don't mention the previous things, as long as you do it well now." ”

"I'm starving to death, and I can't eat properly without food." Ma Li said with a bitter face: "It's not that I want to go to the village chief's house for dinner. ”

"My parents are helping out at his house, and the family can go to eat." Xiao Xia smiled innocently: "The key is that the food there is abundant, let's go, the village chief's house is behind." ”

When he went to the village chief's house, Zhang Tianyu slowed down and hurried side by side with Zhong Ling: "The funeral is big, the dead are respected, how many questions do you have to wait for the old man to settle down, do you know?" ”

Zhong Ling was originally in the mood to ask the teacher for sin, Zhang Tianyu's words just hit his heart, Zhong Ling said helplessly: "I know, but I have to look at the kid Ma Li, I don't move, it's hard to keep him still." ”

A group of people walked into the village chief's house one after another, the village chief's house yard is in front, the house is behind, and it is a three-story small building, built that is called a big atmosphere, the yard is preparing to eat and drink, and there is a banquet after the funeral tomorrow, and the aroma is overflowing.

After entering, Ma Li saw the village chief at a glance, the village chief was talking to people, and found that a stranger had come in, turned to look over, and saw Ma Ma, and the cigarette in his hand fell to the ground with a "poof......

Zhang Tianyu said meaningfully: "Some people are scared. ”

Ma Li's brows furrowed tightly, he was about to step forward, Zhong Ling found that he was slightly bent and leaned forward, which was an attack posture in the grappling technique, she took a step forward, and her elbow pressed against Ma Li's chest: "Don't move, we are here to clarify the facts, force can't solve any problems." ”

"My family's affairs have nothing to do with him." The sound of horsepower squeezed out of his throat.

"So what?" Zhong Ling reprimanded: "Unless you can solve everything by yourself and we withdraw, otherwise, you will have to listen to us." ”

Zhong Ling is not tall, he looks weak, but his strength is not small, Ma Li rushed forward unconvinced at first, and found that he couldn't move, and then looked at Zhong Ling's sharp eyes, and his momentum immediately weakened.

Zhang Tianyu happily reminded: "Don't be serious with her, she will reward you with a back fall." ”

At this time, the village chief walked over quickly and said to Xiao Xia, "Xiao Xia, what are these?" ”

"Village chief, this is horsepower, these two are his friends." Xiao Xia wanted to pull the horsepower over, but found that he couldn't pull it, and then he couldn't pull it, but he still couldn't pull it, so he had to give up, and smiled awkwardly: "Mapower, don't you remember, his family has passed away, and he went to the imperial capital after graduation." ”

The village chief's face turned as white as paper, and he said tremblingly: "He, he, isn't he dead?" ”

"To live to see people, to die to see corpses." Zhang Tianyu smiled coldly: "When you see someone now, do you still want to say that he is dead?" ”

Zhang Tianyu's momentum was quite great, and the village chief suddenly became short to the dust: "That's not it, but some people say that he died of illness in the imperial capital, because it was too far to transport the body, so he took his clothes back and got a clothed tomb, and I presided over the ceremony." ”

The horsepower was controlled by Zhong Ling, and he could only say angrily: "I'm not dead, I've been working in the imperial capital, who said I'm dead?" ”

"This, I'm afraid it's a misunderstanding." The village chief couldn't wait to leave: "Look, I'm busy at home, Xiao Xia, I have to go in and burn silver paper when you have to eat." ”

The village chief couldn't wait to turn around and leave, to say that he was hungry, he was really hungry, Zhong Ling's stomach had already "cooed" all the way, Xiao Xia brought a small hot pot over, and a lot of cold dishes, opened a few bottles of beer, and made a table to stand on the side, everyone was not polite, and ate it with a bowl of rice, only Ma Ma was not very interested, lazily picking up the dishes in the bowl.

The rest of the people in the courtyard looked over from time to time and talked about it.

"Isn't that Xiaoli, the son of the old Ma family, what's going on, he came back from the dead?"

"This child has been a nemesis since he was a child, his father and mother, his grandparents also died early, and his family is gone, how did he come back?"

"Ghost knows, you see, as soon as he comes back, the old lady will die, this is really a lonely star, it won't hit us, right?"

The last sentence was too hurtful, it was just nonsense, Xiao Xia heard it clearly, his face was red, and he slapped the chopsticks on the table: "Nonsense, the old lady has been lying in the hospital for a month, what's the matter?" ”

Xiao Xia's parents hurriedly came over: "You kid, eat well, everyone just talk casually." ”

"It's not so hurtful to talk about it." Xiao Xia said: "What age is it that you are still so superstitious. ”

Zhang Tianyu snorted, Zhong Ling lowered his head and forced a laugh, Zhang Tianyu cleared his throat: "A Dragon Boat Festival was born, born on the day of the year when the Yang Qi is the fullest, and Ma Ma was born at half past twelve at noon on the same day, it was born at noon, and it is the time of the day when the Yang Qi is the fullest.

"Who is he?" Xiao Xia's dad is a little weird.

Xiao Xia shook his head in confusion: "I don't know, it's a friend that Ma Li brought from the imperial capital." ”

Zhang Tianyu looked at the person just now, that is, what will it be said that the person who will not be on our head is a middle-aged woman with short hair, triangular eyes, high cheekbones, a mean portrait, Zhong Ling looked behind this person, it turned out that there was an old woman standing behind her, her face was only as small as a palm, there was a black mole on her eyebrows, and her thin hand was poking the back of this middle-aged woman's vest.

I saw Zhang Tianyu walking up to the middle-aged woman, but his eyes did not fall on her face, but looked at the old woman behind her: "Mother-in-law, this is your daughter-in-law?" ”

The old woman is old and speaks the local dialect, Zhang Tianyu listened hard for a long time before he understood: "Oh, your daughter-in-law treats you badly, always hungry for you?" ”

The originally noisy courtyard suddenly fell silent, and the fire paper in the room burned brightly, and the red firelight reflected on the windows, which was particularly eye-catching at night, and the atmosphere became particularly strange at this time.

Xiao Xia's mother stammered, "Ah Feng's mother-in-law is indeed starving to death......

The middle-aged woman named Ah Feng is usually thin, and she loves to take advantage of small advantages, and scolding the street is even more disturbing, the people in the village have long been unaccustomed to her, and now they see someone treating her, and it is so weird, no one stands up to stop it.

"Mother-in-law, the mole on your eyebrows is quite special." Zhang Tianyu said again, this time it made Ah Feng's cold hair stand upside down, and he got goosebumps all over his body!

"Oh, you don't want to be reincarnated, you just want to wait for her, and go to Huangquan Road together in the future, when the time comes, your skills are deeper than her, you must take care of her?" Zhang Tianyu translated the old woman's words: "Why bother, people die like lamps, you walk on Huangquan Road as soon as possible, cross the Yin Yang River, you can be reincarnated as a man, and the unfilial will have his own Hades to clean up after death." ”

Ah Feng's body trembled like chaff, her eyes desperately rolled down, trying to see the scene behind her, the old woman was already resentful of her, so she simply let her see herself.

Seeing the dry face behind her, and sweeping the familiar mole, she screamed in fright: "Mom, let me go!" ”

She rolled her eyes, leaned back, her hands and feet twitched, and Xiao Xia's mother said, "It's not good, she has committed epilepsy!" ”

Everyone dragged her aside for treatment, Zhang Tianyu stopped and returned to the table, even Zhong Ling was a little angry: "It's too big, be careful of your life." ”

"It's fine. I'm measured. Zhang Tianyu said: "This person is born with a mean face, he is not an ordinary good stubble, and his psychological endurance is stronger than that of ordinary people. ”

On the other side, the eighth woman finally had a seizure, nothing serious, Zhong Ling was relieved, and pinched Zhang Tianyu fiercely: "You can't do this in the future!" ”

Ma Li was not happy, always frowning, Zhang Tianyu said: "Brother Ma Li, what else do you want?" For the sake of you, I have taught that eighth woman a lesson, can you laugh or not? ”

"I can't laugh." Ma Li said: "It turns out that the whole village thinks that I am a bad star, saying that I am unlucky, I will only restrain my own family, and never restrain others!" It's true! ”

Xiao Xia was originally immersed in Zhong Ling's "performance", but now when he heard Ma Li's words, he retorted: "Not everyone thinks so, I, my parents don't think so, you helped me back then, and our family remembers it clearly." ”

Xiao Xia's father was a simple farmer, and nodded again and again: "Children, some adults are not sensible, you can't worry about them, hurry up and go back after eating." ”

Everyone also wanted to leave this place of right and wrong, and immediately finished eating and retreated, and when he was leaving, Zhong Ling felt a burning gaze behind him, and turned around suddenly, and saw that the curtains on the second floor were closed, but he still saw the face of the village chief in an instant!
