Taoist temples have statues of gods and Buddhas for people to worship, and people pray that while the gods and Buddhas enjoy the offerings, the gods and Buddhas can also bless the safety and smoothness of the devout believers.

From the emperor and the prime minister, down to the poor people, they will ask God to pray, even the most knowledgeable people, and even the sage Confucius, will say a word.

No one is sure if the gods and Buddhas in myths and legends really exist, just as they are not sure if the dragons in the zodiac ever existed. As some people say, the ancestors put the remaining eleven real animals into the zodiac, and there is no reason to make up a non-existent creature into the zodiac.

Those high gods and Buddhas are not touched by ordinary people, but ordinary people can touch some gods and spirits that are also very human, such as mandrill spirits, such as ghosts.

In fact, the custom of folk belief in mandrill spirits has a long history, such as fox fairy, Wong Tai Sin and snake fairy, which are the most commonly believed gods by the folk people, and these gods are spirits and demons in the eyes of the Taoists, but in the eyes of ordinary people, these spirits can protect and help those who are devout to a certain extent.

The belief in ghosts, on the other hand, is much more widespread.

When people pray to the gods and Buddhas in Taoist temples, because the gods and Buddhas enjoy the offerings of tens of millions of people, so when many pilgrims have prayers, there must be some spirits and some people who are not, but if the gods and Buddhas are invited home and only worshiped by themselves, it will be different.

In the eyes of gods and Buddhas, secular people often ask for things that are worldly, and they can't escape fame and fortune and lust for profit, so when mortals ask gods to worship at home, relatively speaking, there are fewer people who invite true gods and Buddhas, but there are many people who ask for fake gods and Buddhas.

The so-called false gods and Buddhas, of course, refer to those mountains, spirits, spirits, monsters, and ghosts that can fulfill people's wishes.

Mandrill spirits are not easy to invite, but ghosts must be easy to invite, because after people die, the soul is a ghost, and the ghost is accompanied by a corpse, and inviting a corpse is inviting a ghost, so in order to avoid it, inviting a ghost has gradually evolved into a saying that please the great god.

We can often hear or see that some people who are mediocre in appearance, have little talent, have an average family background, and have average luck suddenly become prosperous one day, and everything becomes smooth, as if they have suddenly opened their minds.

It is not excluded that some people are indeed accumulating, but in most cases it is not that simple.

The little ghosts in Guangdong, the Kuman Tong in Thailand, the deciding corpses in the West, the witch curse dolls in the West, etc., are actually made of evil spirits made of dead people's corpses, especially children's corpses, and it is rumored that children have not experienced the joys and sorrows of the world and died of great resentment, especially the stillborn babies in the womb, which is the best introduction to making petition ghosts, so in the past, there have been cruel things that have happened when pregnant women were intercepted and killed by caesarean section.

After the corpse of a dead baby is made into a "great god", it is said that it can increase people's luck infinitely, making people's careers smooth and prosperous.

When it was rumored in our town that Lu Da'an invited the great god, I guessed that he invited a little ghost, but then I heard that he invited the natal god, so I was confused.

In Taoist classics, there are records of the birthdays of many immortals and powers, such as the birthday of Taishang Laojun is the 15th day of the second lunar month, and the birthday of the old mother of Li Shan is the 15th day of the sixth month of the lunar calendar.

Every time the birth of these gods and goddesses, the people will organize believers to worship, and the golden statues of these gods will be invited home to invite God, if it is a person born on the fifteenth day of the second month of the lunar calendar, it is just a belief in Taishang Laojun, at this time, Taishang Laojun will be invited home to please the natal god.

But often gods are noble and can't satisfy too many people's desires, such as wanting to become the richest man in a certain place and wanting to win the jackpot.

And the statement of the Natal Ghost is unheard of.

Now after Lu Da'an said this, I realized what was going on, it turned out that inviting a natal ghost was to make his son a little ghost.

"No wonder you didn't let the coffin open when the coffin was opened for autopsy, and you lied to us that your son's body was moved to another place, and you made it a ghost for you to do it, you are really poisonous, I really doubt that you killed your own son with your own hands." Xiao Wu snorted, looked at Lu Da'an with disdain and said.

Lu Da'an hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Little Fifth Master, don't talk nonsense, although I, Lu Da'an, am not a good person, but the tiger poison does not eat children, not to mention that I have begged for a son for many years but can't, and finally have such a son, how can I harm him?" I didn't want him to leave me. Please also ask the little five masters to be magnanimous, and have mercy on my heart as a father. ”

Lu Da'an said sadly, but I frowned when I heard it, so I asked suspiciously: "Boss Lu, I can understand your love for your son, but how old is your child, what he did to the women of your family is really jaw-dropping, and what is even stranger is ......"

"What's so strange, Boss Lu's own son, who is used to being raised, and it doesn't harm people's lives, but it's our mouth." The old bachelor interrupted me.

I know that the old bachelor is afraid that Lu Da'an will stir up the situation like this, and we won't be able to get the money when the time comes, the family is full of oil and water, and the remuneration is also a lot, and I am afraid that the husband who tells fortunes and looks at feng shui in this life will not meet twice, so the old bachelor doesn't want us to turn against Lu Da'an, and if we offend people at that time, we won't be able to get any money.

"It's good if a few of you can understand, my child is pitiful, I will definitely discipline it well in the future, as for my sister-in-law's promise to you, I will pay you a lot of money, a few wait."

Lu Da'an said, hurriedly untied the fishing net, and walked out of the room with the white-faced imp who was already dying and about to die.

After a while, Lu Da'an returned to the house, holding a bag of cash in his hand and handing it to the old bachelor, Xiao Wu is now completely disgusted with Lu Da'an, who is full of nonsense, and will not take Lu Da'an's money at all, I saw that the money was received, and when this came to his mouth, he was looked at by the old bachelor and held back.

Because as far as I know, Lu Da'an's son died ten years ago, and he is only ten years old when he dies now, how can he know so much, and besides, a child can actually see that Xiao Wu is Maoshan Taoism, and his tone and demeanor are not like a child.

We shared 30,000 yuan of the reward this time, and Xiao Wu wanted to throw it to me, but I really couldn't ask for it anymore, but deposited 30,000 yuan in the bank card, and then rushed into his >

It was already early in the morning when the three of us returned to Zhangjiagou, and after taking a shower, I got into the tent tired, and suddenly heard the faint sound of turning over next to me, so I asked in a low voice, "Xiaobai, haven't you slept yet?" ”

Xiaobai didn't answer, I tiptoed out of the tent, trying to get into Xiaobai's tent, but as soon as I lifted the tent, Xiaobai held the corner and didn't let me in.

"Xiaobai, you're still angry, next time I won't deal with these women anymore, the old bachelor and Xiao Wu can testify, I don't even look at that Cai Bingbing." I whispered.

Seeing that Xiaobai still ignored me, I took out a hairpin and said, "Guess what gift I brought you this time?" ”

As soon as I finished speaking, Xiaobai's hand stretched out of the tent, I put the hairpin in her hand, and was about to take the opportunity to get into her tent, Xiaobai immediately pressed the tent again, and I had to go back to my tent in a huff.

When I woke up the next day, it was already three poles in the morning, I got up and continued to supervise the villagers to build houses, and someone asked: "Zhang Yang, was it not there all night last night, I heard that the woman who drove the BMW was the owner of the bathing city in the town, how is it?" ”

"Shh I glanced at the man and signaled the man not to talk nonsense, for fear that Xiaobai would be unhappy when he heard it.

Xiaobai, Xiaowu and the old bachelor they don't know how to use WeChat, now that the old bachelor has money, I asked him to buy a mobile phone, and it will be convenient to contact in the future, as for Xiaobai, I also bought a mobile phone with the same style as Xiaowu for her, and taught her how to use it.

At noon, Cai Bingbing sent a message asking me how Lu Da'an dealt with that little ghost last night.

I didn't dare to tell her that the little ghost was Lu Da'an's son who died young, but I thought that Lu Da'an should be able to discipline his ghost son, after all, his ghost son was a woman in his own family, he was a face-saving person, and he shouldn't let it go, so I replied to the message that it was okay, and let her sleep in peace in the future.

After a while, the phone rang again, and when I looked, it was Cai Bingbing who transferred me 90,000 yuan, saying that it was a reward, and I clicked on it to collect the bill, but after thinking about it, I returned it to her.

Although I like money, and Cai Bingbing is not short of the 90,000 yuan at all, but Lu Da'an has already paid him, and I don't want to take it.

Cai Bingbing sent me a question mark and asked me why I didn't want to, so I told her about the money Lu Da'an had given.

Cai Bingbing didn't reply to the message after that, but when I was about to go to bed that night, Cai Bingbing sent another message, saying that her feeling came again, and asked me if I could accompany her.

I replied that I had a girlfriend.

If it were usual, I would definitely run over in a hurry, after all, I haven't really broken my body when I'm so big, and Cai Bingbing's figure is really good, and my words are not bad. But Xiaobai has been a little unhappy in the past two days, she will occasionally play with my mobile phone, in case Cai Bingbing sends any explicit news to Xiaobai again, I will be finished.

But I didn't expect Cai Bingbing to suddenly transfer 10,000 yuan to me and let me go.

"Zhang Yang, can you come and accompany me, I'm afraid."

This 10,000 yuan is very tempting, who would be afraid of more money? And it's a big beautiful woman who asks me out.

I've been poor since I was a child, and I didn't think Cai Bingbing was insulting me by transferring money to me, she was such a fashionable woman who could take a fancy to me, a poor student in the countryside, but she also looked up to me.

But I still can't go, because I can't be sorry Xiaobai, originally I wanted to block Cai Binbin, so as not to have any misunderstandings in the future, but thinking about blocking a girl will definitely be very sad, so I didn't confiscate the money and didn't reply to the message, so I went to sleep.

Who knew that the next day I heard a piece of news that made my heart very uncomfortable.

Cai Bingbing died.
