Chapter 167: Wrench, Huang Gong
I can't bear that this old woman, who seems to me to be disrespectful, should be treated with so much respect, but now I can't bear it and there is no way, I can only go and pour her tea, hoping that she will not let those uncles and aunts come to us for trouble. It seems that her status in the village is not low, otherwise she would definitely not be so respected.
Now, Huang Zhenyuan and I are outside the door, and Huang Qixun in the room has pulled up a shelf with a white cloth to prevent others from seeing the body of the injured.
I really felt uncomfortable standing on the side, but Huang Zhenyuan was much better. I saw her take a deep breath and exhale with her eyes closed, this is a way for her to soothe her heart when she is angry, but she is so easy to be attracted by her breasts, my face is red after looking at it twice, so don't overdo it.
And the old woman didn't talk too much after Huang Qixun went in, even if I asked me to refill her tea, she gently knocked on the table with her fingers. That's why I saw her with a white and dark yellow jade wrench on her thumb!
This wrench is not small, it is as long as one of my fingers, she is a woman, and her fingers are not as long as mine, so this jade wrench is completely impossible for her thumb to bend. For decoration, the fingers should not be bent, like a foot wrap. But with a jade wrench finger must be because of preference, after all, it is beautiful. The footwrap is different, it is a kind of restraint on the feet, even if it will make the woman's feet smaller, but it will make people very uncomfortable.
"Some things can't be looked at."
As I looked closely, the old woman's voice suddenly sounded, and I couldn't help but be stunned, as if I had done something bad.
"Shhh
I wanted to apologize, but as I looked at her, I noticed that her wrinkled face was looking at me with a strong smile, with that shrewd look, just like the green ghost had made me feel before. Subconsciously took a step back, feeling that this old woman was not simple. Whoever she really is, I just think there's something wrong with her, and it's a big problem!
I've always been shy and weird about this kind of person on the other side, because this kind of person knows people but doesn't know their hearts, and suddenly they can do something special to you with a turn of face. Now this old woman feels to me more than she does, like the kind that wants to eat my soul.
"Our Tai'an Huang family is disciplined in self-denial, and the times have changed, but in our village, we have to follow the rules of the village." The old woman said unhurriedly, and then continued, "Little girl, kneel down in front of me." Your parents died in the middle of the year, and it is unfortunate that your mother and daughter secretly sold their fields and abandoned their ancestors. You come to me and snort three times, and promise to become my protégé in the future, and I will spare your mother and daughter for the sins of abandoning the clan. ”
As she spoke, her face was straight, and she looked back at Huang Zhenyuan, and the breath of an inexplicable superior came from her body, "Don't think that you can escape from the control of my clan if you hide in the county seat, without my wife's attention to you, your mother and daughter would have been ...... Hum! ”
Hearing these words, I frowned, and the teapot in my hand trembled from the vigorous grip on it. I was very angry because this old woman actually said such bullshit family rules and forced Huang Zhenyuan to be her protégé. Students? Who did she think of herself? What a bullshit goddess?! Especially when she finally said threatening words, if she didn't pay attention to Huang Zhenyuan, would she dare to do anything to Huang Zhenyuan in modern society?!
Hehe, I think it's ridiculous. Most of this kind of messy village rules are just superstitions, and I am a person who can really see ghosts, can it be that if the village rules are broken, there will be some "gods" in the village who can't be rectified? So what kind of god is this "god" who harms his own people? The first answer is that this god is actually a ghost, and the second is that someone is pretending to be a ghost!
Pretending to be a ghost is just a meal to eat and clothe in general, but the kind of pretending to be a ghost in a certain group is the biggest tumor in a group, this kind of cancer has killed many people since ancient times, and the most known thing for ordinary people is the soaking of the pig cage. We generally know that the pig cage is because of the immorality of the things, but let this phenomenon that is not controlled by the ancient yamen intervene to quote the ghost and god, because of the underdevelopment in ancient times, the thing of pretending to be a god and a ghost has happened repeatedly, and the yamen may not be able to expose everything, so the act of dipping the pig cage began to be uncontrolled, and slowly removed the theory of ghosts and gods, but there are still such legends in some places.
Now this old woman in Huangcun belongs to the kind of person introduced above, and this kind of person is the god stick that exists in almost every village! They accept the best treatment in the village, there is no shortage of food, clothing and warmth, they generally lack the people around them, they generally do not have a family, or have a family before, but when they do this kind of village god, they have been divorced, lost their wives, and lost their husbands.
Why don't they start a family? It's very simple, because this is what the gods and sticks in the market preach to each other, what are the "five disadvantages and three shortcomings" and "Taoists can't get married", and even Taoists can't eat meat. They say that what they know is false, but this illusion has become popular, so most of them can only make it up when they don't know the real Taoist priest. And because every village actually has a time to meet, so slowly these made-up ghosts and gods have become a common routine.
This is the so-called ghosts and gods in the market!
Get back to business.
After Huang Zhenyuan heard the old woman's words, she breathed a sigh of relief at the end, with a flat color on her face, and stood in place and said in an unhurried tone: "Wife, don't force me." Since childhood, we have known that the precepts of Huangcun cannot be violated, and if we are angry, our family will be ruined. At that time, my father was seriously ill, and he could have walked peacefully, but you just let him drink some rune potion, which not only defrauded our family of money, but also made my father leave early. Originally, the doctor said that he could live for another week, maybe this was providence. My mother and I secretly left because we were fed up with the village, and you made us believe Huang Gong, but he never helped us, but hurt us. Woman, this is the age of science, don't fool yourself anymore. ”
Huang Zhenyuan said very calmly, she had never said these words to me. She deliberately concealed it from me, but I don't blame her, she was afraid that I would come to Huangcun to get rid of Huangcun's superstitions and get hurt. If I had been in the same situation as her, I would have been so irritable that I would have done anything to tear down the old woman's house. But she endured it and chose to live with her mother in the county town, otherwise they would probably die if the mother and daughter got into trouble!
"Boom!"
"Hugh is talking nonsense!"
The old woman was very angry, holding a cane on the ground, looking at Huang Zhenyuan with anger on her face. At this time, her face was very solemn, and she said in a deep voice: "If Huang Gongzu hears your words, how can he forgive you, quickly kneel down and make amends, otherwise the village rules will deal with it!" ”
"Hehe~"
I laughed, I really laughed, and said disdainfully: "Huang Gongzu? The gods and Buddhas in the sky have long been full, when did the Huang Gong in your mouth die, he is a god? It's ridiculous, I guess even ghosts don't exist anymore. We've been polite enough to you now, and if you believe in the ghosts and gods again, I'm going to call the police and have someone come and dispel the superstition. ”
Seeing her so arrogant, I said. In fact, these words did not hurt her too much, because she was not born in modern times, and it is normal to believe that there are ghosts and gods, and I can understand her difficulties. However, if she goes too far, and thinks that there are no ghosts and gods in the world, but she still embarrass us in every way, it will not be that I don't respect the old at that time!
"You...... Alas! ”
The strange thing is that she originally pointed at me angrily, but she quickly sighed, folded her hands and hurriedly said silently: "The child is disrespectful, Huang Gongzu, please don't be surprised." The child is disrespectful ......"
She prayed for us? This kind of chattering look really looks like a psychopath to me, because I can see ghosts, and if there is a ghost talking to her, I can definitely hear it clearly, but there are no ghosts in front of her or behind her.
Huang Zhenyuan looked at me, with doubts in her eyes, asking me to give her an answer on whether there were ghosts around her. I shrugged my shoulders and shook my head, and she was relieved.
It's just that when I looked back at the old woman, I only saw the wrench on the thumb of her right hand move on her folded hands, and then a slight and cunning voice came out, "As the revered Huang Gong of the Huang family, I have been regarded as the ancestor of the Huang family in Tai'an for three hundred years, and this little girl and a person with a foreign surname dare to disrespect me." Here, I have your life to bury the two of them alive, otherwise I will flood the Yellow Village during the harvest! ”
The direction of the voice was from the wrench, and when I looked closely, I couldn't see any clues at first. But soon I saw that there was a slight difference in the color on the wrench, the difference was nothing more than the rounded color of the jade, and the shape of the wrench on the old woman's knuckles was camouflaged, made of a ghost!
"Lord Huang Gong forgives me, children have eyes that don't know Mount Tai, and I hope you have a lot of them. The old man now asked the people in the village to prepare the items to be worshipped, and to worship Lord Huang Gong...... "This old woman can hear the voice of this ghost who has transformed into a jade wrench, and she is begging for mercy for us.
I can see ghosts and hear them. This old woman is not a bad person after all, because she has begged for the "gods" who she heard to say the "words of our ancestors" for us to forgive us. She can't see ghosts like I do, and I don't know how she can hear the ghost's words, but all she cares about now is the ghost hidden on the jade wrench.
From the ghosts in Huang Village, it can be known that those ghosts did not even come to touch the ghosts on the jade wrench, presumably his strength is not bad, and he can threaten other ghosts. However, his strength is not necessarily very powerful, because although some of the ghosts in the village are a little cautious, they can be distributed in the village at will, which means that he is not able to forcibly order the ghosts in the village. Now it seems that when we entered the village, we felt that there were ghosts watching us, and it seemed that we were asking for news from this ghost named Huang Gong.
It's just that I don't know what I'm doing with the ghosts who are consciously staring at us, they seem to know that I can see them, is my intuition wrong?
