Fangfang's full name is Wei Xiaofang.

It is said that 18 generations of her ancestors were born and raised in the local strong.

She and Wei Xiaotang's family are not related by blood for at least six generations. It's just the same surname as Tongtun. However, according to the rules of Zhuang Township, the same village is considered half a relative, and if the same village is the same surname, it is called "not a relative but also a relative". First of all, you can't intermarry, otherwise you will mess up the generations. Secondly, not only do they worship their ancestors together in the same ancestral hall and help together when they encounter red and happy things, but once they encounter major events, they respond to every call, make a strong contribution, and have money to contribute. In ancient times, when there was a fight between villages, it was "fateful." ”

The reason why we contacted Fangfang on this trip to the Guangxi border was that Wei Xiaotang and Fangfang usually had close contacts.

After graduating from college a few years ago, Fangfang once thought of the development of the Pearl River Delta, and Wei Xiaotang also gave her good advice. In addition, in their tun, when they went to college, they saw the world with the same surname and the same generation, and there was no one else except Fangfang. Of course, the most important point is that Fangfang is a warm and helpful person.

When I first met Fangfang, I struggled with what to call her.

The father said, "Call the teacher!" ”

I thought it would be better to call her teacher. But then you can think about it, nowadays, isn't "teacher" just the abbreviation of "teacher"?

If you are older, have no official position and no money, you can't be wrong to be called a "teacher" in general. However, Fangfang is a well-known Tianqin master, who has won awards at the German, Japanese, and Malaysian Folk Song Festivals, and has also appeared on CCTV many times in China, and has invited her to the Nanning International Folk Song Festival every time. Such a talent, to be called by the name of "teacher", is obviously a bit demeaning to her.

"You have a point." The father nodded, thought for a while, and then said: "Or just follow the customs, according to the name of the Zhuang people, the people who played Tianqin in ancient times were called Tianpo, and you can call her Tianpo." ”

Wei Xiaotang, who was drinking tea on the side, almost took a sip of tea and said: "Jiuyin calls her an aunt, I think it's quite awkward, and you still let him call her her a mother-in-law, how embarrassing is that." ”

Fangfang is twenty-six years old this year, young and beautiful, and her words and deeds exude the unique temperament of a beautiful girl. So if I call her "aunt", it's very embarrassing, and if I call her "mother-in-law", it will be too hurtful, right?

Fangfang graduated from Bagui University of Nationalities majoring in Tianqin, authentic four-year undergraduate class, people are not only beautiful as immortals, but also smart and studious, in college she also studied the second degree of medicine in Bagui University of Nationalities Medicine, the use of Gu poison and antidote and Gu poison prevention and control have more in-depth research, has published academic papers in some newspapers and periodicals.

Wei Xiaotang said: "People in Fang Yuan for dozens of miles call her 'Heavenly Master', although the title 'Heavenly Master' sounds a little superstitious, but the reason why people call her 'Heavenly Master' is also for a reason. One is that she is indeed outstanding in the performance of the Lyre, and she is well deserved to be called the "Master of the Lyre". The second is that she also has deep attainments in Zhuang medicine, especially in the prevention and control of Gu poison. ”

Wei Xiaotang said that in the past, there were rampant demons in this area. Although it gradually disappeared after liberation, because of its specific geographical location, it is still not uncommon to release Gu and harm people abroad.

Wei Xiaotang also said that Fang Fang has a special ability, she can not only cure the person who has been poisoned by the Gu, but also treat the body of the person in the way of others, that is, after subduing the Gu, let it attack its owner in turn. It is like a soldier charging forward on the battlefield, who is suddenly turned against by the enemy, or rebelled before the battle. The person who stored Gu and released Gu originally wanted to use Gu to harm others, but he never thought about it, but in the end, he was turned into harming himself by the Gu he had raised.

It is precisely because Fang Fang has this special ability that those people outside the country who accumulate Gu and release Gu can be said to talk about Fang Fang's color change.

When Wei Xiaotang said this, he turned to my father and said, "It's not an exaggeration to call such a person a heavenly master, right?" ”

"That's it! Is that! Father nodded quickly.

From then on, when I was Fangfang's face, I called her "Heavenly Master." When she wasn't there, I called her "Beauty Heavenly Master" to people. ”

Fang Fang said to me: "Since you have come from such a long distance from Sampan Chau City to learn Tianqin with me, then I ask you to study without distractions, and strive to memorize 60 traditional Tianqin songs in just one month, and be able to play them skillfully." ”

From then on, every morning at 8 o'clock, I went to the county seat with Fangfang's car to learn Tianqin, and after class in the evening, I went back to Tunli with her car, and all actions were under her command.

Of course, on Sundays when there were no classes, Fangfang allowed me and my father to visit the attractions along the border.

Sometimes, when the weather was bad and not suitable for fishing, they would go to Longzhou Shuikou or Pingxiang City's Puzhai and Nongyao, or Ningming's Aidian and other border ports to see mahogany furniture, and wait for an opportunity to buy it.

I heard that the flying fish boys came to fish, and Wei Xiaotang's cousins specially recommended a few scenic spots to their father, saying that they could go fishing and sightseeing to those scenic spots. The attractions they recommend include the Huashan mural in Ningming, the Detian Waterfall in Daxin, and the Xiangshui Waterfall in Longzhou. They said that when you go to these attractions, you can play while fishing, the scenery is good, and there are a lot of fish.

Later, Feiyuzi and Ah Hai instigated Wei Xiaotang to say that it was not easy to come to the border, in addition to fishing to buy mahogany furniture, it was perfect to go to Vietnam to do an in-depth tour of Vietnam.

Wei Xiaotang was a little hesitant at first, but then he couldn't stand the instigation of the two of them, so he agreed half-pushed, half-pushed, and began to prepare for a trip abroad.

I asked my father, "Dad, they are going to Vietnam, do you want to go?" ”

My father was embarrassed and said: "It is said that the mountains and rivers have come far to the border, and there are acquaintances to lead the way, so it is indeed a beautiful thing to go to Vietnam for an in-depth tour." However, there is organizational discipline! ”

"Vietnam in-depth tour, I covered all the expenses. Don't worry, the mountains and rivers are far away, and no one knows that you went abroad without permission. "Flying Fish Boy tried his best to encourage his father.

"Going abroad is very strict, as long as you go out, you always have to leave a trace."

"You don't need an ID card, after you find an acquaintance to bring it over, there are also reliable acquaintances over there to contact, and you will definitely not be blackmailed by the Vietnamese public security, you can rest assured!" The flying fish boy is unwilling.

"Wei Xiaotang dares to go, you are so cowardly as a mouse." Ah Hai said with a smile.

"Xiaotang has no official or position, I am different."

The father told them that he had come out to take annual leave this time, and the reason for the leave was to take his son to Ningzhou, Guangxi Province to participate in Tianqin training and study, but he did not mention that he was going to leave the country. Although he only needs to have an ID card here to go through all the formalities of leaving the country, he still can't go.

"I'm different from them, although I'm just the director of the Municipal Local Affairs Office, a petty official of the Qingshui Yamen, but then again, I'm also the leader of the city's committees and bureaus, don't say that if you go abroad, even if you leave Guangdong Province, you have to go through the approval of the secretary of the municipal party committee, and now if you want to go abroad, you must first go through the consent of the organization department and the discipline inspection commission, and then ask the secretary of the municipal party committee for leave."

In the end, no matter what everyone said, my father still declined.

My father is really a good law-abiding citizen!

Fangfang held a training course on Tianqin with five or six sisters who also loved to play Tianqin at the county federation of trade unions, once a month. Usually there are about fifty or sixty people per session. There are twice as many students during the summer vacation.

She rented a one-bedroom apartment in a neighborhood next to the trade union, went back to the rental house to eat and rest after class at noon, and occasionally stayed there when she didn't go back to Tunli at night.

After Fang Fang took me away, she arranged for me to live with her. She lives in the bedroom and I rest on the couch in the hall. Sometimes, when she had friends visiting and they were chatting in the hall, she would ask me to come to her bed and rest.

Fangfang treated me like his own brother, unrestrained, and took care of me. Maybe it's because I play Lyra very well, and she's very satisfied, and sees me as her protégé.

There is only one bathroom in the rental house, and when I washed up in the bathroom, I was surprised: Fang Fang had almost no other cosmetics except towels, toothbrushes, mouthcups, shampoo and shower gel, which was in stark contrast to my mother's piles of makeup in the bathroom all year round. But no matter how much makeup my mother makes, she still can't hide the yellow freckles and wrinkles on her face that are increasing day by day, as well as the white hair on her head, while Fangfang, who never uses makeup, has black hair like a waterfall, slim and graceful, and her beautiful face seems to be coated with a layer of cream, smooth and bright. A pair of big bright eyes, the eyelashes on them are always so fluttering.

She didn't use any perfume. But in her bed, it was always so warm and fragrant. Whatever she wears when she goes out, it's so appropriate and appropriate whenever she puts it on.

No matter how busy Fang Fang is every day, she also finds time to practice. She also suggested that I should learn to dance, and she said that playing the Lyra should not only be able to sing, but also be able to dance.

Under her guidance, I also practiced some simple dance moves, and she also took the trouble to do several demonstrations for me, what a word leg, what an orchid palm. But I was obviously too stiff in my body and hands and feet, and I always made her laugh so much that she couldn't breathe.

One day at lunchtime, I asked her a few doubts in my heart, which is why the night we arrived at Clam Tun, Wei Xiaotang would meet her aunt, who had passed away for more than half a year?

"I've been thinking about this for the past few days, I believe that Xiaotang won't lie to me, he did see his aunt who had passed away at his aunt's house, and he peeled an apple and handed it to his aunt, and my aunt also took a bite, and then we went to the scene and saw that the apple was indeed peeled, leaving two tooth marks on it, and there was a gap in the middle, I remember that before my aunt died, one of her two front teeth fell out."

"But...... Why did they attack Uncle Wei Xiaotang? I asked a little anxiously.

"Demons." Fang Fang said.

"Demon Gu?" I asked, puzzled.

"A demon is a Gu, and a Gu is a demon. Anything that is abnormal is a demon Gu. After Fangfang finished speaking, she asked me in detail about the situation before and after our departure that day, including what things each of us carried, and I told her one by one.

"Among the 5 of you, they chose Brother Xiaotang to start, not randomly, but after selection, because among the 5 of you, only Wei Xiaotang can start."

"What do you mean by that?" I looked at her quizzically.

"There is a tiger tooth on the chest of the flying fish boy, and with this tiger tooth alone, the demon Gu does not dare to get close."

"And what about my dad?"

"Your father is upright, he majored in politics in college, and he doesn't believe in any demons in the world at all. Generally speaking, a person who is upright also has some scruples about demon Gu. However, your dad never left Flying Fish and you along the way, and in the car refrigerator in the tail box of the Flying Fish Boy, there is a large bag of items used to make soul grenades to ward off evil spirits and ward off demons. What's more important is that you have a magic weapon in your car, and that is your thousand-year-old guqin. With these objects, how dare the demon Gu get close. ”

"Then Ah Hai didn't have anything on him? And when Uncle Wei Xiaotang got out of the car to see his aunt, Ah Hai was alone in the car, and the demon Gu could attack him. ”

"Ah Hai got on the car...... I guess there should also be an object for the Demon Suppression Gu, right? ”

I thought about it for a long time, and suddenly patted my brain and said with a smile: "There is a pure black male dog in Ah Hai's car. ”

"That's right." Fang Fang smiled, "The blood of the black dog is powerful, but the live pure black male dog is even more powerful." ”

Fang Fang also told me that there are two kinds of ancient evil spirit-ward items that are black dog blood and chicken heads. It is also said that dog blood is used as a magic weapon to avoid evil and break demons, which has been recorded in the "Historical Records". Qin Shi Huang's four lessons of killing dogs to ward off evil disasters are an example. It is said that killing dogs and smearing blood on the portal has always been one of the basic ways for people to avoid ominous or resist evil. Using dog blood or chicken head is the easiest way to dissolve demonic energy, especially rooster head and black dog blood are more effective. If you encounter a "demon" using a spell, you can also splash the dog's blood to break its magic spell.

Fangfang said that I was a little scared.

After Fang Fang's careful analysis, I finally understood why they would attack Wei Xiaotang.

"But we're new here, why did they attack Wei Xiaotang?"

Fang Fang said: In ancient times, Gu disease was a widespread disease in our area, which seriously endangered the health of the Zhuang people and seriously threatened the reproduction of the Zhuang people. Because the Zhuang people live in the subtropics, the climate is hot, rainy and humid, high mountains and mountains, river networks, dense vegetation, insect breeding, is a poisonous environment, people are very susceptible to infection and disease, so it was regarded as a miasma in the past. A poem written by the Tang Dynasty poet Shen Yuqi said: "In the past, the Miasma River Road was transmitted, and now it is at the Ghost Gate." No one is old in the land, and a few people have returned. Some also said: "Nine out of ten will not be returned." The hometown of Zhuangxiang is known as the "hometown of Gu poison".

After liberation, Gu disease gradually disappeared. But across the border, in Vietnam's Miao area, there are still Gu herders. Wei Xiaotang must have also been attacked by a so-called Medium Harm Gu.

After poisoning people, this kind of poisonous Gu will make people dizzy, and they will have hallucinations of sight and hearing, see ghost shadows, and hear ghost sounds. Obviously, they first used this kind of harmful Gu to make Wei Xiaotang hallucinate, and then manipulated him ......, so let's put it this way, it's like guiding you to go on a night tour, telling you to do something incredible, but you don't have any impression when you wake up. A few years ago, in a village in Vietnam near our tun, there was a large amount of money that was harmed by someone else, and after the big money was put into the Gu, he spent a lot of money to buy a large piece of gold, and went home happily, but when he got home, he opened it and saw what kind of gold he spent a lot of money to buy? It's just a piece of cow.

"That Uncle Xiaotang?"

"Don't worry, I'm here. They just tested it, and didn't dare to actually do it. ”

"Such a horrible thing?"

"What do you think?" Fang Fang also said that the accumulation of Gu and the release of Gu to harm people on our side have almost disappeared after liberation, but there are still outside the border, raising antique children and raising little ghosts, which is very common. They are often found in underground casinos in Thailand and Cambodia, or in jewelry stores in Myanmar. Some domestic tourists go abroad to travel, but they can't come back, why? Someone was manipulated to go to the casino, originally with the dream of making a fortune, but not only did he not get rich, but the family had to spend a lot of money to redeem the person back to China. ”

"Ah, that's terrifying,...... My father didn't go with them to Vietnam for an in-depth tour. ”

Fang Fang smiled, reached out and touched my bulging head, "You don't have to talk about Gu color change." When you go out, you don't have to worry about bringing evil objects with you. ”

"Then why would anyone want to attack us?"

"Now Gu is generally for money. I estimate that some people must have heard that the flying fish boy is going to come here to buy a large number of furniture, I heard that the flying fish boy wants to buy 26 sets of furniture, his brother-in-law Ah Hai also wants to buy 20 sets, and a set of mahogany furniture is less than three or five hundred thousand, so to speak, dozens of sets are tens of millions, for economically underdeveloped areas, this is undoubtedly a big project, and this project was introduced by Xiaotang, they naturally stared at Xiaotang. ”

"Isn't it the freedom to buy and sell? Can they still force the flying fish to buy ...... at a high price?"

"You little kid doesn't understand. Nowadays, a construction project of tens of millions, naturally there are many people rushing to do it, in order to get this project, some people send money to send beauties for hunting, and some people think that sending money to beauties is a bit cliché, so they want to carry out demon ......"
