Volume 1: The Candle Dragon of the South China Sea Chapter 43: Please God
Staying in this gloomy and weird ear room, the fat man suddenly said this kind of superstitious words, which made me and Chen Haoyue inevitably a little suspicious, after all, the little princess died there, and the dead man had turned into a ghost, how could she negotiate terms with us? Thinking about this, I had a headache for a while, so I simply lit a cigarette and smoked it.
The fat man also lit a cigarette, slowly exhaled the smoke, looked at us and hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "I have a way to communicate with the dead, but I am afraid that if I say it, you will say that I am superstitious." ”
Chen Haoyue's face was overjoyed, and she hurriedly walked up to the fat man and said, "Master, it's all come to this point, if you have any way, just say it, and we can judge whether it is feasible or not." ”
The fat man didn't think so, touched his hair with his hand that hadn't been washed for a few days, and finally said, "Then let your fat master come and ask God to try." ”
I was taken aback, because this is not the first time I have heard the word "please god", especially since there are many such stories in some folk rumors, and it is impossible to know whether it is true or not.
In my hometown, the villagers who live in ten miles and eight towns have at least three or five of these things, and the meaning is also obvious, that is, to invite the gods to come to their bodies, because the gods will see those things that cannot be seen, and naturally they can also communicate with the ghosts and gods, so if you see the demons and monsters in the house, everyone who sees the invited gods will be frightened and flee, and finally let the house return to peace.
Before I did business with Fa Xiao Wang Wei, I also went to a very famous local god to invite the gods, and asked him to invite the gods to come up, and said that the gods said that the two of us would be rich and prosperous in the future, and they did make a lot of money at the beginning, and they also sent him hundreds of yuan red envelopes as a thank you gift.
But later, our business became more and more bleak, and gradually forgot about it, and when I couldn't sleep, I also thought about it, the so-called superstitious thing of inviting God, it is estimated that my heart is doing trouble, if you don't work hard in this world, how can God bring you good luck?
Therefore, only when you encounter unfortunate things will you believe in this superstitious thing, and the benefit that God brings you is nothing more than your own psychological comfort.
Later, I summed up a truth, that is, a common saying: it is easier to please God than to send God. So, I never believed in gods or ghosts since.
But the fat man suddenly asked God at this time, which surprised me.
The fat man's words made everyone present a little stunned, if the fat man's feng shui is a good idea, everyone believes in it, but this is not to say that the fat man can really see what feng shui, but because the tombs of the ancients were buried according to feng shui, so there is naturally his scientific truth.
But this kind of thing is believed by some people, and some people are confused. Chen Haoyue and I were skeptical of the fat man's words to ask God, but the little brother in black and the fat man agreed to ask God, and the fat man and I argued for a while, almost about to quarrel again.
At this moment, the little brother in black, who had been standing aside and silent, suddenly spoke: "I believe what the fat man said, and now he is also a dead horse as a live horse doctor, so what if he can help try it?" ”
Since the little brother in black has spoken, I am helpless, sighing and saying, "Okay, okay, then let the fat man try, stay anyway." ”
Then, I looked at the fat man with that distrustful look and asked, "Fat man, I don't know which immortal you invited?" ”
The fat man's face was happy, and he said with a smile: "I won't tell you, it's a bird fairy." ”
After listening to this, the hairs on my body stood up again, and I hurriedly said: "Fat man, don't you invite the birds outside again, if you attack us again, then really no one can stand it." ”
Chen Haoyue smiled after hearing this, but the fat man looked calm, without the joking look before, he sat cross-legged on the ground quietly, his hands folded, and he couldn't hear what he said.
After a while, the fat man turned to me and asked, "Bring me the cigarette." ”
I was a little confused, but I immediately remembered that I asked God to burn incense and light a fire, since there is no incense here, then cigarettes should be used instead of incense.
After thinking about this, I immediately groped for cigarettes from my body, and finally reluctantly took out the box of soft China that my second uncle gave me.
The fat man shook his head and made an "OK" gesture to me, I was a little confused and hurriedly asked what this meant?
"There are three ghosts and four ghosts, and they want four cigarettes."
My eyes were red after hearing this, this was the only tobacco on my body, and now the fat man asked a fairy to take away my four cigarettes, although a little reluctantly, but in the end I handed the fat man three more.
The fat man took the cigarette, put it on his nose and sniffed it, closed his eyes and said meaningfully, "Yo! It's still soft China, you stinky boy, you have a good cigarette and have been secretly hiding, you are just a stingy ghost......"
Although I can't stand the fat man's nagging, I just want the fat man to invite the fairy quickly, so that I can leave this ghost place as soon as possible. I folded my hands, made a gesture of please, and said impatiently, "Okay fat man, hurry up and start your invitation." ”
The fat man glanced back at us and said, "Those who don't believe in the gods should turn around, because then they will have righteousness on their bodies, and the bird fairy will not come down to help us when he sees this kind of person with light all over his body." ”
Chen Haoyue and I naturally didn't believe in asking God, so we quickly turned around and turned our backs to the fat man.
After about ten minutes, the fat man suddenly stood up from the ground, and I immediately looked back to see that the cigarette on the ground had already burned out. But the fat man's hands began to dance, and his arms began to flutter and flapp, like birds flying in the sky.
None of us bothered him, because he was like a psycho at this point.
This went on for five minutes, and the fat man suddenly stopped dancing, closed his eyes tightly, and his voice became extremely evil, and said, "I am a bird fairy, what is the matter with you inviting me over?" ”
For a while, everyone was also stunned, I don't know if this is what the fat man said himself, seeing that no one else stepped forward, Chen Haoyue pushed me from behind, and the little brother in black also looked at me, I was a little nervous, walked forward, and said hesitantly: "Hello bird fairy, please do us a favor"
"Tell me anything about it."
The fat man opened his eyes, I found that his eyes were full of black, I was startled, and hurriedly took a few steps back, everyone quieted down, it seems that the fat man really invited the bird fairy, I continued: "I want you to go and discuss with the little princess in the tomb, and let him take me out of here." ”
The fat man stared at the text on the wall and hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Since this is the case, seeing that this little princess has a miserable life, then I will go and intercede for you." ”
After speaking, the fat man was like a puppet at the mercy of others, without a trace of anger at all, and walked towards the stone gate with slow steps.
As soon as the stone door of the ear chamber was opened, the sleeping birds immediately opened their eyes wide, fluttered their wings, and stared at us with bright eyes, and I hurriedly took a few steps back, and it seemed that these birds were still preparing to attack us.
Chen Haoyue and I and the little brother in black immediately hid behind the fat man, these birds saw us appear, and they were all ready to swoop over to attack us, but suddenly saw the fat man and stopped in place, his mouth kept screaming.
The fat man gradually walked to the sarcophagus, and the sarcophagus suddenly stretched out a pair of bird claws, and when the little princess crawled out of the sarcophagus, the three of us were amazed. The fat man's body suddenly collapsed to the ground, and something with the body of a human-faced bird gradually appeared.
I was taken aback when I saw it, it turned out that the bird fairy looked like this, the bird fairy walked to the little princess, the little princess was glaring angrily and suddenly became docile, the bird fairy stroked the little princess's feathers, and the little princess's tears actually fell one by one.
It is estimated that they will have to communicate for a while, seeing the fat man fall in place, I quickly walked over to help him up, only to see that the fat man was covered with sweat, as if he had done a lot of heavy physical work, I patted his face, the fat man suddenly sobered up, gasping for breath.
At this time, the bird fairy and the little princess didn't know what they were communicating, and after a while, the little princess's eyes were slightly red, and she nodded to the bird fairy, and her body gradually turned into some dust and fell around.
When the birds saw the little princess disappear, they all hung their heads, and the birds' eyes were a little moist, but it didn't take long for them to fly in front of us and want to show us the way.
Suddenly, the voice of the bird fairy echoed through the tomb again.
"I've already helped you what you asked me to do, and since there's nothing else to do, I'll go."
After hearing this, the four of us hurriedly folded our hands, bowed respectfully to the place where the bird fairy left, and said in unison: "Thank you for helping today, I will burn incense and wine for you in the future." ”
The whole process only lasted a few minutes, and if I hadn't witnessed the fat man asking God, I might never have believed in this kind of thing in my life. I was surprised that I didn't expect that the first time I asked God to be so successful, I secretly sighed in my heart, it seems that there are indeed things in this world that cannot be explained by science.
The fat man rested for a moment and finally stood up, with the birds leading the way for us in front and the four of us following behind. I turned around to look, I don't know if I was wrong or hallucinated, the dust turned into the little princess formed her lovely face, nodded at me and said: Thank you, I also turned around and nodded to her to understand, and also prayed in my heart that she could be reincarnated as soon as possible.
After walking for a while, a slight light suddenly appeared in front of me, and the further we went, the stronger the light became, and it seemed that we finally saw the exit.
Just when the four of us were overjoyed, a familiar figure appeared in front of us and blocked our way, and I looked carefully and was immediately surprised, because this was the ghost baby who had just disappeared! It turned out that he had been waiting for us here.
The ghost baby stood at the exit, sneering on his face, and the weak figure was pulled by the sunlight for a long time, and then the familiar voice came.
"Hmph, it looks like I'm going to have to send you on your way personally!"
