Chapter 477: Retribution

In the past, Ji Laohan and his family were cooking lunch, and suddenly heard someone begging at the door.

When he came out, he saw that it was a down-and-out Taoist priest, and now there are more people who can't eat enough, and no one has any surplus food to give, so the two of them want to drive him away.

The Taoist priest looked to be only sixty years old, with a lean body and sunken eyes, and waved his hand and said, "I just want to ask for a sip of water." ”

Ji Laohan was a little unbearable when he saw his emaciated appearance, this Taoist priest must have been hungry and skinny.

After thinking about it, Ji Laohan gave him two or two stick noodles and a half-baked peach, and the family didn't have enough to eat, so that's all.

This Taoist priest didn't leave a name, but just showed gratitude: "Two, I don't know anything else, I know a little bit about yin and yang feng shui, why don't I help you with something?"

Ji Laohan smiled: "I'm half buried in the soil now, what else is there to see." ”

The Taoist priest thought about it, and suddenly saw a three-year-old child in the courtyard, that is, the grandson of Ji Laohan.

The old man stared at the child for a while, and suddenly ate the jerky peach, then buried the peach pit in the courtyard, and finally took his leave.

Before leaving, the Taoist priest left a sentence: Your grandson is weak in life and is prone to ghosts, and he will be able to save him once in the future.

Ji Laohan didn't understand what this meant, but after a few years, the peach trees in the courtyard did take root and sprout, and the longer they grew, the more vigorous they became.

Ji Laohan's son and grandson have never seen anything happen, his son Ji Dazhuang is an honest farmer, and his grandson is also a shy baby.

When Goudan was ten years old, Ji Laohan died and was buried on the hillside.

Later, the conditions in the countryside became better and better, several villages were merged into towns, and the Xiazhen Pavilion was also built.

In the winter of the twelve-year-old Natal Destiny, he came home late because he was playing, and it was dark at five or six o'clock in the winter.

When the dog came home, he always felt a figure following him, and when he looked back, it was empty, but he felt dizzy.

The way home is usually very familiar, but this time I walked around for an hour, and it was almost eight o'clock when the dog came home.

Ji Dazhuang was in a hurry, and wanted to teach the dog a lesson, but when he saw that the dog came back, he had a high fever and fainted, and kept muttering: "Go away, go away, don't follow me... I have to go home. ”

Ji Dazhuang took his son to see a doctor, but his condition did not improve, and he was not getting better when he was talking nonsense.

According to the tradition of the countryside, this situation has to be brought to see by some "warlocks", and it just so happens that there is a "warlock" near the village who knows some things like gods and ghosts.

But that "warlock" has quirks, he never walks at night, and he doesn't want to come, so Ji Dazhuang had to take his son to visit.

The warlock was about thirty years old, with a short stature, and when he saw the dog, he casually put a few talismans and fiddled with it, and the disease was immediately cured.

The warlock declined Ji Dazhuang's money and replied, "This is to let the soul keep up when you go home, this is a trivial matter, it doesn't matter." ”

The warlock said so, and Ji Dazhuang didn't take it seriously, but when he was sixteen years old, he committed a strange thing again.

It was the tenth day of the first month after the New Year's Celebration, and it was also the day of late winter and early spring, and Goudan and a few young children went up the mountain to play together, but when they passed by the cemetery, Goudan took a pot of wine from the grave and drank it.

This is actually not a problem, there are few materials in the countryside, and people often come to the grave to collect tribute after sweeping the tomb, but the problem is that the dog drank two sips and threw the wine bottle in front of the grave, and also threw away a few bites of a few fruits, which caused an accident.

Dogan cried and made a fuss when he came home that night, and the most frightening thing was that Goudan's voice was an old man's tone when he opened his mouth, and it had a strong accent.

The dog scolded with an incomprehensible accent like this, smashed the things in the house like an evil spirit, and didn't stop.

This is the ghost upper body, commonly known as "bumper" in the countryside.

I had no choice but to invite the warlock again, and after I invited it, the warlock kept busy with a few charms, but there was no effect, and he was sweating profusely.

"Your son is going to meet a great guy, I can't save him. ”

Ji Dazhuang was anxious: "You are so capable, why are there people you can't save?"

The warlock said: "I learned these skills when I walked the streets and alleys, and it's okay to drive away some wandering ghosts, but I'm also afraid of encountering fierce ghosts." In the past ten years, I have not walked at night, and I have not spent the night outside, why? Because I have offended so many ghosts, I myself am afraid of revenge. ”

Ji Dazhuang's heart was cold and said: "My father said that he met a begging Taoist priest more than ten years ago, saying that my son was weak, but he didn't think it was like this, and he was bumped into by ghosts several times." ”

When the warlock frowned, he suddenly remembered a trick: "By the way, the "Materia Medica" records that 'the peach does not fall on the tree, but it can kill a hundred ghosts', there are many peach trees in the village, you can look for it." ”

Ji Dazhuang is also desperate, green shoots only grow on the trunk in this season, how can there be peaches?

But the warlock refused, saying that the "peach" was the peach that had survived the cold winter but did not fall.

Ji Dazhuang suddenly thought of what happened to his father when he met that Taoist priest, wasn't there a peach tree in the yard?

When I went out, there was a shriveled spade pit hanging on the trunk, about the size of a jujube, which was a peach.

The warlock plucked the peach, soaked it in water and gave it to the dog, and within ten minutes, the dog's egg was quiet.

Ji Dazhuang cried with joy, and hurriedly knelt in front of his father's tablet: "Dad, the Taoist priest you met back then saved your grandson's life!"

Later, this peach was made into a pendant and hung on the dog's body, never leaving his body, and he never had an accident again.

There is a scoundrel named Yunlong in Yunjia Village, he is idle all day long, and he doesn't do any work, so he lives by stealing some wheat from this family today and some beans from that family tomorrow.

One winter, relying on his hard work, he finally stole ten catties of meat from a large family, and he was so happy that he hung the meat on the beam of the house and prepared to eat it the next day.

When I woke up in the morning, I saw that the meat was still hanging on the beams, but it was only half there.

Yunlong was furious, only he stole someone else's things, who would dare to steal him?

He walked around the house for a long time, the windows were in good condition, the doors were in good condition, and no one came in.

Finally, he found a hole in the corner of the wall, and there were still a few yellow hairs on the edge of the hole.

He thought about it and thought that only a fox could do such a thing.

He hung the rest of the meat on the beams of the house, borrowed a clip from a friend's house to catch foxes and wild cats, and placed the clip at the mouth of the hole.

That night, there was a "pop", followed by a scream.

Yunlong jumped out of bed and came to the entrance of the cave in a few steps, and in that clip, there was really a little fox in it.

The fox was three months old at most, and its two small round eyes looked at him pitifully, and the little fox's front legs were clamped and could not move at all.

Yunlong wanted to trample the meat thief to death, but seeing its painful appearance, he felt that it was better to let it suffer like this.

He raised his hand and knocked the little fox a few times, and went back to the house to go back to sleep.

Before dawn, there was a cry in the courtyard, and Yunlong looked out to see a big fox sitting on the ground.

Its hind legs are against the ground, its front legs are dangling on it like its hands, and it sits on the ground like a human.

In front of the big fox, there was a piece of meat, and it turned out that it had come to make amends for the child's sins.

When Yunlong saw this formation, he was a little scared in his heart, but when he saw the sad look in the big fox's eyes, it seemed that he was more afraid than people.

Thinking of this, he said: "The little fox stole five catties of meat from me, such a little meat is not enough!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the big fox got up from the ground and walked away.

Yunlong was in a daze, and the big fox didn't know where to get back a few shell coins.

Yunlong's eyes lit up, and he said loudly to the big fox: "My family's meat is the best lean meat, and it is worth ten shell coins to say the least." ”

The big fox was gone again, and this time, it took back a few shellfish.
