Chapter 3 Pool Collectors

As soon as Park Byung-wook saw that his son was starting to get sick again, he hurriedly hugged the child and kowtowed, begging bitterly, "Daxian'er, please be merciful, don't look at me to see the child." You save my son, you can do as much as you want, I can't afford to borrow it, I can't sign it, I'll sign and draw it, I'll be a cow and a horse for you for the rest of your life, please do well, save my son. "I cried as I spoke, and tears flowed down my face.

Seeing that he was crying pitifully, Liu Cripple was also moved by compassion, returned to the house and turned out a small cloth bag, took out the three longest silver needles from the cloth bag, hesitated slightly, and said to Park Bingxu and my grandfather: "Da Xian'er doesn't let me care, if I do it, I will offend my family's fairy family." These three silver needles are enshrined under the incense burner all the year round, and you can do it yourself, whether you can save this child depends on the will of God. ”

Park Bingxu was dumbfounded after hearing Liu Cripple's words, he didn't know any medical skills, even if he gave him the needle, he didn't know where to pierce it. Seeing that the big bag under the armpit of the third boy was getting higher and higher, Park Bingxu wanted to kneel again. My grandfather gritted his teeth and snatched the three silver needles, and asked Park Bingxu: "If you don't come, the three boys can't afford to delay, it's good that you don't blame me!" ”

Park Bingxu also saw that it was impossible for Liu Cripple to do it, he looked at my grandfather, and finally made up his mind to stomp his foot and kowtow to my grandfather: "Uncle, you can do it, it is his life to die or live at this point, you can rest assured, you are the benefactor of my whole family, and I can't blame you if I die." ”

To say that my grandfather used to beat Langzhong in Changchun Hall, he still has some understanding of the several big holes that save people. He picked up the silver needle and put down two needles in turn in the middle of the three boys' people and in the middle of the body, saying that it was also magical, the three boys immediately stopped convulsions, and the lame Liu on the side also nodded secretly. Grandpa picked up the last needle and hesitated for a long time, and finally bandaged the armpit of the third boy.

The third boy made a cry like a night owl in his mouth, heartbreaking, only to see him roll his eyes and glared at my grandfather viciously, and scolded viciously and resentfully: "You are helping to abuse today, I will tell your whole family to cut off children and grandchildren!" The third boy fainted after scolding, my grandfather was scared stupid, the voice just now was obviously not the third boy, such a vicious curse my grandfather was also scared, he asked Liu Lame what to do.

Liu lame shook his head helplessly, and said to my grandfather: "You really dare to be ruthless, the yellow skin on this child's body is said to have hundreds of years of Taoism, you go down with this needle to destroy her hundred years of cultivation, and I can't help the curse she took as a guide, and the descendants of your family are really going to cope with this catastrophe." ”

"At most, these three injections keep the child from smoking, the root of the disease is still there, and I can't do anything. If you ask me to do something, you have to tell me the truth, what the hell is going on? Liu Cripple wiped the fine sweat on his forehead, staring at Park Bingxu intently, as soon as Park Bingxu entered the door, Liu Cripple could see that he had something in his heart, and he could see from his eyebrows that he must know the cause of this matter, and nine times out of ten the problem was in him, the father.

When Park Bingxu heard this, he also knew that whether his son could be cured or not, the level should be on this Liu Daxian'er. After a day, I found several people who came out of the horse and danced gods, all of whom asked the incense and picked up people, and seeing that there was such a person who was willing to ask carefully, he no longer dared to hide it, and the future of 1510 was clear.

It's good that Liu Cripple didn't listen, but after listening to it, he suddenly gasped, and after groaning for a long time with a black face, he opened his mouth and said: "You are doing evil, then you are just picking up a litter of cub skins in front of others?" ”

Park Bingxu heard the anger in Liu Cripple's tone, and he didn't know what to say for a while. He has been hunting since he was a child, and in his eyes, animals are animals, but he didn't dare to say anything more at this time, just kowtowing like pounding garlic.

"Don't be busy, do you dare to look for Da Xian'er about this? It's good that the immortal family didn't give you another disaster on the spot, the real body of the immortal family is not separated from Hu Huang Chang Python, you do this in the eyes of the immortal family, just like killing people in our eyes. You wipe out the same clan, can the big fairy do things for you? The more Liu lame spoke, the more angry he became, and his tone became higher and higher, and finally he simply stretched out his finger and gave the order to evict the guest at the door.

Park Bingxu didn't dare to answer, but he didn't get up either, and his head banged. On the side, my grandfather obviously didn't expect such a shock, at this time, seeing that Liu Cripple was about to get someone, he was busy coming over to help persuade him, he heard that Liu Cripple was the kind of character with a soft heart and soft ears, so he picked up the pity and said, but what he said was the truth. It is nothing more than that Park Bingxu's family is not a local, and the family is helpless, if this matter is not solved, the family will have no way to live.

In the end, Liu lame sighed helplessly, got up and went into the house to pick up paper and pen, wrote an address on the note, and didn't look at Park Bingxu who was kneeling on the ground, stretched out his hand and handed the note to my grandfather and said: "You take the two of them to this place to find it, this old man is a dry pool, in the early years, when I didn't go out of the horse, I was rubbed by Qiu Xian'er, and at that time how many big fairies couldn't do it, and then it was this old man who cleaned it up. If he should go, you will have a score for this, if he should not, let him go home and prepare for it, this is not a one-off matter, and if he doesn't give him the destruction of his whole family, it will not be a pull! After speaking, Liu Cripple pushed Park Bingxu out of the door and closed the wooden door with a bang.

I want to say here that it is said to be a pool, but in fact, it should be called a pool, but the people call to call it according to the dialect. There are not too many people who know this doorway even in the Northeast, because the business of collecting pools is almost extinct, and the people who know this line are not enough for one hand and two hands are always counted.

In fact, the gate of collecting the pond was not originally owned by the Northeast, according to legend, it originated in the Shang Dynasty, and it was extinct from the Central Plains from the Eastern Weekend to the Spring and Autumn Period, and then somehow suddenly appeared in the Northeast in the early Republic of China. There are also halls who do this business, but they are different from the disciples who come out of the horse. The hall slip of the disciple who went out of the horse is red, while the hall slip of the person who collects the pond is black. There are two hall slips in the house of the pool, one is dedicated to the ancestors, and it is in the inner room but not the sleeping room. The other is called the pond hall, which is placed on the wall opposite the stove in the outhouse.

On the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the collector had to carry a horsewhip in one hand and a lantern in the other, and at the same time prepare incense and candle offerings to rush to the cemetery. The horsewhip is made of cow tendons, and the cow is the most psychic, and ordinary people can see ghosts when they smear cow tears on their eyelids. And the lantern is even more evil, it needs to be sewn between the scalp and the heart of the evil person and the skin of the back, which is also one of the reasons for the scarcity of the pool.

After feeling the graveyard, like burning paper, draw a circle on the ground with a horsewhip, and this circle has a famous hall called the castle, and then the pond collector sits in the circle, reciting the mantra that has been passed down from generation to generation.

(I can't say the mantra here, the author writes out to see the official even if he reads it silently, it can still play an effect, and if it is light, it will cause a serious illness without a face, and it will be pounced on by the evil ghost as a stand-in, and he will die with a whimper.) I advise all the officials, don't try something that shouldn't be touched because of curiosity, Mo Dao himself is quite extraordinary, and he has no chance to be fate)

After reciting the mantra of the pool, you can see some scary things, the collector must raise the whip to the sky at this time, make a crisp sound, if that thing is willing to follow you to practice, the collector will take out the tribute for it to enjoy, the tribute here is generally blood food, mostly some pigs into the water, but can only be raw can not be cooked. If he eats your tribute, this thing will be your fairy in the future, and he will follow you to cultivate merit and become famous all over the world, but the fairy who collects the pool is generally a very angry character, with ghosts and demons and everything. The immortal families of normal disciples are all practicing in the mountains, and when you think about it, you also know that those who practice by borrowing ghost qi and yin qi in the cemetery are definitely not good stubble.

So sometimes the summoned ones will pounce on you, and at this time, as long as you don't go up to the city, it's fine, and the pool collector will wave the whip again and show the pool collection charm to scare it away. There is that don't be fierce to confront you, and you can't tell if you can deal with it or not, so you can only wait until dawn without leaving the city, and then leave.

Because the line of collecting pools is too evil, not to mention the danger, and those with low Taoism are also facing backlash, so there are fewer and fewer successors. The pool collector is different from the disciple who goes out of the horse, the pool collector must be bold and understand more things, so the general pool collector recruits disciples to accept orphans, for fear of the leakage of the spell, so it can only be passed on alone. Since childhood, he has taught Buddhism and Taoism and the secret methods of ghosts, and it was not until he was eighteen years old that he was allowed to collect the pool for the first time. If this apprentice made a mistake when collecting the pool, this branch would be almost broken, and how many eighteen years of life would there be?

The secret method held by the collector is too rebellious, and the ability is surprisingly great, and at the same time, he is affected by the immortal family and has a perverse temper, and is not too constrained by dogma. This is also the reason why Liu Cripple introduced the pool collector to them.

When my grandfather took Park Bingxu and the three boys to the place, it was about two o'clock, and it was said that this place was not too far from the three rooms. It's a strange place, and even my grandfather didn't know there were people living here. Originally, this was the long abyss where the landlord's family threshed earlier, and later after the landlord moved to the horse bandits, this place has long been uninhabited, and the place is far from the highway. No one would have imagined that there were three small earthen houses in this large depression.

In front of the broken door of the small earthen house stood an old man, as if he knew that they were coming, standing at the door with a yellow lantern in his hand, and when he saw the two people on the top of the slope, he beckoned to them, and then entered the house.

There was no stove in the house, just a small brazier. After the two of them entered the house, they didn't feel much warmer than outside, and even felt that the air conditioning was hot and cold back and forth. After entering the house, the old man didn't ask about the cause and effect of the matter, took the three boys and put them on the low table in front of the incense hall, and then lit a handful of incense in front of the black hall list, and the black hall list had a full eighteen incense burner bowls, and after each incense burner bowl was inserted with three incense sticks, the three incense sticks in the incense burner bowl on the far right were like the twists of a cannon battle, and the search burned to the bottom.

The old man twisted a handful of incense ashes, found a broken bowl and melted it with water, and then wiped it on his eyelids. Then he looked at the three boys, and just like that, the three boys who had fallen asleep by my grandfather's three needles, at this time a spirit opened his eyes.
