The old squire on the table nodded again and again when he heard this: "What Yang Xianggong said is true, this house was originally the ancestral house of a fellow clan in this village, and then the owner of this house was not well managed, and he owed the Wang family a sum of money that could not be repaid, and the owner of the house couldn't think of it for a while, so he looked for a short time on the beam."

Later, the Wang family came to ask for debts, and the descendants of this family had no choice but to discount their ancestral house to the Wang family.

However, this is all an old thing of the previous generation, more than 20 years have passed since now, if it were not for the minister to mention it today, the old people would never have thought of this festival for a while. ”

Yang Congxun told everyone at the table that the wormwood he had just burned was mixed with cinnabar to ward off evil and avoid poison.

There is a way of opposing good and evil, and fighting for life.

The smoke containing dansha was about to fight as soon as he saw the evil qi on the hanged ghost's body, and this blue-robed hanged ghost was afraid of the dansha qi, so he slowly retreated along the cracked gap in the wall, wanting to retract the edge of the original hidden soul wood to temporarily avoid the dansha's righteous qi.

After that, this dansha righteousness grabbed the green-robed hanged ghost who fledgled and fled all the way, so the smoke of the wormwood drilled into the gap in the rammed earth wall.

As long as you pry open the rammed earth according to the location where the smoke has entered, you can find a red brick sealed with a parasitic wood.

At the end, Yang Congxun told everyone that this hanged ghost was not a difficult ghost, and that he could survive his death by asking the monk to resolve the resentment on the ghost, but the hanged ghost with the parasitic wood was much trickier, and the monks of the ordinary Tao could not help it.

Yang Congxun told everyone at the banquet that all the hanged ghosts that exist in the parasitic wood are very difficult, even if the hanged ghosts at this moment cannot harm people, it will become a big trouble if it is delayed for a long time.

According to Yang Congxun's estimate, not long after the Wang family moved into this mansion, the Wang family should have accidentally discovered that the original owner's hanged ghost was resentful and turned into evil.

Most of the Wang family members were aware that this hanged ghost who had turned into evil was the original owner who died because of his own forced debts, and they were worried that once the matter spread, it would seem that they were at a loss.

Therefore, the Wang family did not dare to speak out when they encountered trouble, so they could only secretly find a Jianghu warlock behind their backs to help him subdue the resentful ghosts.

Obviously, this Jianghu warlock who was found by the Wang family is a two-knife who can only swagger and deceive, and he does not have the ability to subdue and overkill the ghosts, so this person gave the Wang family a way to treat the symptoms but not the root cause.

The warlock, who was hired by the ancestors of the Wang family, asked the Wang family to seal the ghost of the hanged ghost into an adobe mixed with cinnabar, sinter it into an adobe in the hearth, and then secretly build the adobe brick in the brick wall facing south of the house.

In this way, as long as the brick is not soaked by the rain, the hanged ghost will be trapped in it, unable to harm anyone.

The method of sealing the soul wood with cinnabar mud is indeed effective, as evidenced by the fact that the previous generation of the Wang family has been peaceful when they lived here, but there is a big hidden danger in doing so!

You must know that the backwardness of the brick-making process in the past, especially the cheap bricks such as red bricks (fired in a regular brick kiln, much stronger than the earthen bricks fired in the hearth), are easy to be soaked in rainwater and cracked and weathered in the process of long-term use.

In order to avoid the problem of wall collapse caused by the weathering of bricks, people used to use stronger green bricks when building walls.

But the problem is that the price of this green brick is too high, and the cost of buying green bricks is several times higher than that of red bricks under the same amount, so those who can't afford to use green bricks can only make do with red bricks.

In order to protect the red bricks and prolong their service life, people who used to build red brick walls would paint a thick layer of yellow mud on both sides of the brick wall, and then tamp and dry this layer of mud.

As long as the rammed earth wrapped in the outside can be regularly replenished in the future, the red bricks inside will not crack due to flooding, and the service life of the house will naturally be long.

However, if it is not maintained from time to time, it will not be long before the outer layer of rammed earth will crack under the rainwater soaking.

At this time, the red bricks inside the rammed earth will be slowly soaked by the rainwater seeping in along the cracks, although there are no obvious defects on the brick wall from the appearance for the time being, but the bricks inside the rammed earth have long been broken.

Once the bricks at the base of the wall are damaged, the brick wall will collapse with a bang because the lower foundation cannot bear the weight of the upper brick wall.

Looking through the notes of the ancestors, there are many records such as 'the rain wall is broken'.

This should be the most incredible thing for posterity: how much rain must it take to collapse a brick wall? Is this a flood?

But in fact, in the past, this kind of thing abounded, especially the men in this family who were lazy or lacked the necessary life skills, such as Wang Quan, who was fond of pai gow.

Once there are such unvirtuous children and grandchildren in the family, the rammed earth on the walls of the house is naturally unmaintained, and it is normal for it to be damaged by rain.

"In the mind of the warlock, as long as the Wang family can mud and maintain their rammed earth walls on time, they can keep their family peaceful; But if the Wang family themselves did not repair the brick wall in time, the hanged ghost would get out of the cracks in the mud seal and cause trouble...... That's none of his business, the money has already been cheated anyway. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Congxun smiled at everyone on the table, patted his chest and promised that he would find someone to properly dispose of this parasitic wood that contained the hanged ghost.

After speaking, Yang Congxun asked for a basket, picked out the remaining chicken, duck, fish and other dishes on the table, put the dishes that were still complete in the basket, and left in this way.

Yang Congxun's act of leaving completely suppressed the men, women, and children at the table, and it was not until they were far away that the villagers felt that they had come back to their senses.

At this time, the Li Zheng of Neiwang Village was heavy: "Yang Xiucai, he is really kind, come here!" Quickly find a craftsman to carve the tablet of the god for Engong, put the tablet into the ancestral hall of the royal family, and make offerings at four o'clock with the ancestors and ancestors! ”

At the same time, on the official road two miles north of Neiwang Village.

"Okay, you Yang Xiucai, your family is so happy in the village that you sit down and drink, but you are so tired that the third master and I are drinking the northwest wind outside.

If you don't look at Xiucai, you still have a lot of hearts, and I will propose this basket of wine and meat to the third master, and I have to ...... Ahh ”

After about three quarters of an hour, the little fox Hu San finally raised his head contentedly, and while burping proudly, he spread his paws towards Yang Congxun.

"Hiccup, what are we doing this time? Hurry up and take it out, you and I can add two to one and make five, and divide it into ...... Yang Congxun! What do you mean? What about the twenty taels of bonuses he offered? ”

As a result, Yang Cong followed him with a loud burp while pointing at the silver bills on the three paws of the little fox Hu.

"That's it, I saw that the villagers in Naiwang Village were not wealthy, so I returned the excess silver taels to others."

"Rotten! What is extra silver taels? Those are the bonuses they promised us! Others are willing to stuff money in your pocket, but you don't want it, third master, it's the first time I've seen someone like Yang Yu! ”

"Hairball! You didn't say that you were going to divide half of these silver taels at the beginning, who knew that you would have to intervene later?

You are still an immortal family with Taoism, so the villagers of Neiwang Village live so hard, you Hu San can't be compassionate? ”
