Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
"You know where it is? I went, I broke through the iron shoes and couldn't find a place, I asked a lot of people, but no one knew, tell me, where is that place? ”
The category was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked, since many people pointed to the three trees that pointed to the clues, but no one knew what the place was, which shows that finding that place is the key.
Guo lame spread his hands and said very casually: "Three trees, that's an old place name, and there is a story to tell, cough cough"
As soon as he said that there was a story, the category came to the spirit, and he loved to listen to the story the most, Guo Cripple paced back and forth in the room, slowly telling it.
Probably in the Qing Dynasty, there were three ancient pear trees in a place in the east of the city, lined up in a row, nestled against each other, each tree was surrounded by several people, and the three trees were connected together, and the shade of the trees almost covered half of the street.
People say that it is a sacred tree and has spirituality, so they call that place three trees, and people often come to incense and worship the three sacred trees, which is said to be quite effective.
But when he entered the Republic of China, he was somehow cut down by a big warlord surnamed Yan at that time, saying that he was pulled back to his own house to build a house, which shocked many people at the time.
But the big warlord himself didn't take it seriously, at that time, the heroes were divided, the world was full of wars, and the number of people who died every day could not be counted, and he himself never believed in ghosts and gods, and the most believed in his life was the barrel of a gun. I thought that Lao Tzu had killed countless people, but there was no. Cut down a few broken trees, is it possible that you can still make monsters?
In this way, the three ancient trees were blatantly pulled home by him, and when he repaired the ancestral house, one made the beams and purlins of the main house, and padded the threshold, and the other was split to make furniture, beds, tables, chairs, and the like.
But the tree is too big. Of the three trees, only two were used, and the remaining one was useless, so the big warlord came up with the ingenuity to dig a pit and plant the tree in the yard, thinking that it would be cool under the big tree and wait for the tree to come back to life. The shade of the trees shades the entire ancestral house, which is a great feng shui.
He thought so, and did so, but the tree was replanted and erected, no matter how he sent someone to serve it. But it never came back to life, and it was erected in the yard, with sinuous branches and fangs and claws, but it no longer grew half a leaf.
Since then. Those who live in ancestral houses are often in the middle of the night. I heard a whimpering sound coming from the courtyard, like the wind blowing through the treetops, and like a low cry, and every now and then, the tables, chairs, and beds in the room kept shaking, and some strange sounds were made, as if they were echoing.
This is a sign of haunting, the warlord was afraid, thinking that he had repaired the house, changed the feng shui, and attracted something unclean, so he asked the master to come to the house to subdue the demons and eliminate the ghosts.
However, the nearby monks and Taoist gentlemen Yin and Yang heard that it was for his family, and none of them dared to come to the door, and some even ran away in the middle of the night.
There is no other reason, when this warlord wanted to put an axe on the three ancient trees, someone once came to persuade him, saying that this is a sacred tree, it is already psychic, if it is cut down, it is like causing harm, I am afraid that he will be punished early in the future.
But this warlord didn't listen to it, the big old man was coarse, and he beat out all the monks and Taoists who came to the door with a slap, and scolded and said: Lao Tzu doesn't give money to go down to restaurants in the city, cuts down a few broken trees, and comes to talk to Lao Tzu, who dares to talk nonsense again, they will all be killed!
In this way, no one dares to come to find death, anyway, it is you who cut down the tree, and you will be the unlucky one in the future, and those masters have shut up and waited to watch the excitement.
So, after the house was repaired, strange things began to happen, and this warlord wanted to find someone to help, but no one cared, just kidding, who would dare to care? Who's in charge? When you cut it, tell sù don't cut it, don't listen, it's stupid this time, it's time!
The warlord couldn't find anyone to help, but the house became more and more violent, and at first it was just a little noise, but then it began to die.
The first to die was the child of two people in his family.
In fact, he didn't live in this courtyard himself, at that time, his family had a big business, and there were hundreds of houses alone, and the ancestral house was only a few of the courtyards, and the old people in the family lived in it, and some subordinates.
On the day of the accident, the child was at the door of the ancestral house, riding on the threshold to play, and somehow, suddenly there was a sound of blood spurting from his mouth, as if he had been hit by some heavy object in the chest, and he rolled over and fell to the ground at that time, and when others hurriedly came to check, he had already lost his breath.
A few days later, the two families were chilling under a tree next to the wall, but the wall suddenly collapsed without warning, and the two were caught off guard and both were stoned to death under the wall.
At this time, everyone panicked, and no one dared to live in the ancestral house anymore, so they moved out one after another, but only the old mother of the warlord refused to move out, saying that her son had done too much evil, which was God's retribution, and he had to stay in the ancestral house, saying that he was going to fast for seven days, burning incense and worshiping Buddha day and night, and atoning for his son's sins.
The warlord refused to listen to the persuasion, so she had to send many people to guard her day and night, thinking that she would move the old lady out after seven days.
The first two days were uneventful, but on the night of the third day, the old lady was sitting in the house holding a rosary and praying silently for the scriptures, when a purlin above her head suddenly fell, and the old lady was defenseless and was stoned to death on the spot!
This time, the warlord thundered and was furious, he originally didn't believe that a few trees could still be strange, and always thought that it was a ghost, but at this time, the few people who died were all related to those trees, first the child sat on the threshold and died violently, and then two subordinates were crushed to death by the wall under the tree, this time, his old mother was smashed to death by the purlin, and a series of coincidences finally made him believe that this qiē was probably caused by those trees.
He swore that he would get rid of this demon tree!
The next day, he took his own guards and surrounded the ancestral house, demolished the place where the ancestral house was connected to the other houses, and lit torches, so that the ancestral house could be burned down and the root cause of the curse would be removed forever.
But at that time, there were also people who strongly objected, several elders in his family, saying that the ancestral house was originally very good feng shui, so he came out of this glorious ancestor's son, if the ancestral house was burned, not only to the ancestors of the great disrespect, but also to destroy the feng shui, to the family is greatly disadvantaged.
Unless the house is demolished, all the beds and furniture in it are moved out and destroyed, and then rebuilt, and find a master to crack it, so that it will work, but he has a short temper, he doesn't have the patience to demolish the house, since ancient times, fire can drive away evil spirits, let it be any demons, burn it to death first!
The fire was blazing, and the hundred-year-old ancestral house was reduced to ashes in the firelight, but what made everyone present creepy was that in the fire, there were low whimpering, and there were faint bursts of weird roars.
The fire burned for a day and a night, and the beams and ridges of the ancestral house, as well as a piece of wooden utensils, for some reason, stood still in the firelight, and it seemed that even the fire could not be extinguished.
When the fire finally gradually extinguished, the entire ancestral house had been scorched to earth, and there was no more zài, only the lonely big tree in the yard was also affected by the fire, burning only the broken branches and black trunks of the trees.
The warlord was relieved at this time, and ordered the tree to be burned on the spot, so his sergeant poured fire oil on the tree, and was about to set it on fire, when a man came in a hurry.
When the warlord saw this person, he shouted for help, hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, and said with a pause, If my husband had come a few days earlier, there would not have been such a big change in my family.
This person who came, but he was a real master, he was the patriarch of the Longmen sect of Northeast Taoism at that time, a disciple of Guo Shouzhen's lineage, known as Liu Laodao, who had a relationship with this warlord in the early years, and this time, it was at the invitation of this warlord that he came from Changbai Mountain, but he didn't expect it to be a few days late.
When Liu Laodao saw that everyone was going to burn the tree, he hurriedly stopped him and said to the warlord, you have made a big mistake, do you want to make mistakes again and again? Don't do things to kill everything, leave a glimmer of life for others, and also leave a way back for yourself.
Liu Laodao said, this ancient tree has been old for a long time, and it has long been psychic, and now you split two of the bodies and use each for other purposes, which is equivalent to dividing people's corpses and bones, how can the ancient tree not take revenge? Now that you have burned the old tree, you will be guilty of more sins, and if you destroy the only tree you have left, you will die on the spot.
The warlord was also scared at that time, so according to Liu Laodao's instructions, he took out the ashes of the two ancient trees that had been burned to ashes in the ancestral house, dug two deep pits next to the ancient tree in the yard, buried the ashes, and invited someone to do a 7749-day congress, and then gave the ancient tree a tablet, named it Qingyuan Shujun, and the incense continued at four o'clock, and the matter was gradual.
But since then, the warlord's power has gradually weakened, and he has repeatedly lost battles, and in a time of being surrounded and suppressed by the enemy, he ran out of ammunition and food, and the troops were exhausted, and finally had to commit suicide.
He committed suicide, and the whole family was slaughtered, but only one of the youngest sons escaped, which can be regarded as leaving a trace of blood descendants for him, which is also the result of his last unkilled.
The year after his death, some people were surprised to see that the dead tree of his family's ancestral house had quietly sprouted paper shoots, and a few months later, green leaves grew on the tree, although it was still a broken branch and a broken tree, but it had been reborn.
Since then, no one dares to mention the name of the three trees again, for fear of incurring disasters, so back and forth, it has been slowly forgotten, and the place where the only remaining tree is located, has also built a park, and named after the tree, called: ancient pear orchard.
