Chapter 15: The Old Mansion in the Mountains

I asked Yan Liu, "What countermeasures do you have?"

Yan Liu said so much to me, he definitely didn't come to talk nonsense with me, he must have his plans.

Yan Liu frowned bitterly, and said to me: "My family has broken the inheritance, and my ability to hang on is all dependent on me to learn from my grandfather's Yin and Yang secret technique, and when my father died, he had only one last wish, that is, to calm the evil spirit of Jiulongling, which was created by our Yan family, and now that the emperor is gone, let alone any imperial order, so he tried it before his death, but he got a body of yin and evil into his body, and almost broke the incense, if it weren't for your Hu family's half-immortal life, I'm afraid there would be no me."

I got angry when I heard it, don't look at his age, I scolded correctly, I scolded: "Your grandma is a bear, don't complain in front of me, it seems that no one almost broke the incense, what do you want to say, I can discuss with you, I can discuss with you, if you can't, get out of your grandma a bear."

Yan Liu was scolded, but he smiled at me and continued: "You are the master, your senior, you should scold me, but I have to tell you, my ancestor's ability is to reach the sky, Qin Tianjian Yan Huairen must have heard of it, the formation he laid out, only our Yan family can solve it, so we plan it, I have a plan, you and I entered Jiulongling, broke the formation, took away the ancestors of the Suo family, and buried Yan Wenli's father in it, you and I work together to change the feng shui of Jiulongling for the benefit of one party."

I pondered Yan Liu's words, there were some problems with his words, and I asked him, "What does this matter have to do with Yan Wenli?"

Yan Liu's face was bitter, and he said to me: "Life is sad, I haven't eaten a full meal since six or seven, Yan Wenli is a good person, with a good heart, his father is a good person, my father has no money to bury after his death, he paid for the burial, I am such a person, I am so old, affectionate, now that he is an old man and a fairy, I think I should find a feng shui treasure for him, Mengyin descendants, if that land is changed, it must not be occupied by people with bad intentions, I think that the Yan family is a good family, so it is good to let their family occupy the land."

Naturally, I didn't believe it, and I said, "How much money do you charge people?"

When Yan Liu heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then said to me in a serious manner: "If I lie to you that I am a grandson, I don't want a dime, let me tell you, the Yan family is really a good person, his son is a parent official, for the benefit of the people, but the official is low, some ideas are good ideas for the benefit of the party, but they can't be adopted, so if his family's ancestral tomb can be clouded, let Yan Wenli's son become a big official, benefit the people, this merit is recorded on you and me."

I have a headache when I listen to Yan Liu's nonsense, and it also benefits the people? These years have frozen to death and starved to death, which family has oil and water in their stomachs, which Yan Wenli has a big head and a thick neck, and the general's belly is bulging outward, at first glance, he is a person with a fat brain, I have never seen what kind of person his son is, but what Lao Tzu has is a son, and it also benefits the people? It's not bad if you don't harm one party, it's natural for their Yan family to be good to Yan Liu, he is an onmyoji, and he has some means, but if he is good to others, I don't agree.

Yan Liu saw that I had been thinking for a long time and wanted to persuade me, so I stopped and said to him: "Feng Shui master has a rule, I think you also know that we in this line of people, we will not use it if we find the treasure land of the dragon's lair, that piece of land is there, waiting for someone who is destined, if he Yan Wenli really has this fate, I can't stop it, so you don't have to say those polite words to me."

Yan Liu saw that I didn't get into the oil and water, so he didn't say much, turned around and left, I carried the black cat to the cellar, threw it on the ground, it didn't run around, the cat was napping at the door of my house, no spirit, the previous spirit and vigor were all gone.

The next day, the breath of the New Year is getting heavier and heavier, on the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, every household began to set off cannons, I also lit a hanging, the firecrackers exploded the snowflakes, I was thinking about how to get rid of the evil with Yan Liu, but I didn't think that Zhang Furong came to my house, my mother was not there, and went to the neighboring village to give gifts to my grandfather's house.

Zhang Furong didn't say anything when she came to my house, helped the house clean up inside and out, swept the snow in the yard, and put a hand warmer mat on me, which made my second monk scratch my head.

In the end, Zhang Furong knelt on the ground and kowtowed to me three times and said, "Benefactor, thank you for it."

I didn't understand what Zhang Furong meant by doing this, so I was polite, but people didn't appreciate it, and I left when I was done, I read countless people, and I knew what he was going to do next and what his intentions were when someone made a little move, but Zhang Furong confused me this time.

Wang Hong was still messing around on the side, saying that Zhang Furong was such a good daughter-in-law, saying that I didn't understand human feelings, didn't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, if Zhang Furong could take a fancy to him, there would be absolutely nothing to do with me.

After noon, my mother came back and got some dry goods from my grandfather's house, made a meal, and was eating, Zhang Butcher and his wife came to my house, the two of them were quite anxious, and knelt on the ground as soon as they entered the door, kowtowing to me, I think this family is a little strange, what is this trouble?

I desperately pulled the two up, and quickly asked what happened, the two of them cried and shouted to me that Zhang Furong was looking for a short time, why didn't I stop it, the two of them said that when they found out, the person had left, leaving only a suicide note, I opened the suicide note and looked at it, and regretted it in my heart.

It turned out that Zhang Furong couldn't think about it because she was rejected for marriage, so she went to Jiulongling to find a short meeting, and the crooked neck tree in Jiulongling didn't know how many crazy men and women had been hanged, and I didn't know how many vain ghosts there were.

I didn't have much, so I picked up the one-legged donkey and went out with Wang Hong, and went straight to Jiulongling, the one-legged donkey is a unique tool for walking in the snow in the Northeast, just like skates, but it is made of wood.

This tool is a kind of ice skating gear, a small plough with two legs and a one-legged paddle, and in some places the paddle is also called a "one-legged donkey", and the paddle is similar to the structure and principle of the current skates, except that the material is wood and thick iron sheets, and human feet stand on it.

The paddle occupies a small area and has little resistance on ice, so with the support of the iron drill, the travel speed is faster, more agile and more skillful than the climbing plow.

There is a saying that "both legs are not as fast as one leg", sliding in the snow is definitely faster than you, and "both legs are not as fast as one leg" is similar to "horse-drawn plough is faster than car" and so on, all of which are related to the ice and snow in the Northeast.

Our village has to walk for an hour to Jiulongling, but Wang Hong and I ran very fast on a one-legged donkey, and we arrived at Jiulongling in half an hour, but when we arrived at Jiulongling, Wang Hong and I were a little anxious, and I didn't know when Zhang Furong arrived.

The girls in the countryside are very strong, and the name is heavier than life, Zhang Furong, the yellow flower girl, is even more so, I wondered at noon, why did she do something, it turned out that she didn't want to live, but she didn't want to live up to my kindness in saving her, so she did what she could for me.

I entered Jiulongling with Wang Hong, but as soon as I entered, there was fog and snow, and this strange thing made me and Wang Hong a little scared.

I walked and walked, and suddenly saw Zhang Furong, she was walking with an old woman, which old woman was on crutches, Zhang Furong was supporting her, although it was just a back, but I could still recognize that it was Zhang Furong.

This picture is a bit weird, where did the old woman come from in the deep mountains and old forests? I knew that this incident was not ordinary, so I shouted at Zhang Furong, "Zhang Furong, go home."

My words made Zhang Furong turn around, but she just smiled at me and didn't speak, and the old woman also turned around, but I couldn't see her face, it wasn't that my vision was blurred, but his face was very blurry, I couldn't see the specific outline, I glanced at Wang Hong, he was as confused as me.

The old woman is not tall, her body is bent, her hair is snow-white, her appearance is not clear at all, or there is no appearance at all, he beckoned to me, I felt an inexplicable attraction, I walked over with Wang Hong unconsciously.

When I walked in front of Zhang Furong, she still smiled, and the old woman said to me: "I fell on the road, thanks to this girl's good heart, she helped her, go, I will take you to our house to sit, the wind and snow are too big, I will warm you a pot of wine, so as to warm your body."

When Wang Hong heard this, she wanted to agree, but I glared at him, perhaps remembering what happened that night, so I didn't dare to agree when my body trembled.

I just wanted to speak, but I saw that the old woman had left, Zhang Furong followed her, I was anxious, and quickly followed, it was strange to say, just walked a few steps, the wind and snow stopped, and a stone road appeared in the fog, the road is not very long, and the end is a high-gate mansion, on which is written "Humen", Wang Hong read those two words and played with me haha and said: "You two families."

I ignored Wang Hong, what a muddy person, I was still in the mood to joke at this time, this place appeared in this place, who would dare to enter? Jiulongling is already evil, and when I encounter this kind of thing, I am even more scared in my heart.

But Zhang Furong seemed to be enchanted, and followed the old woman in, I had to fight in order to bring her back and forth, I reached out to pull Zhang Furong a hand, but I didn't hold it, my hand passed directly through Zhang Furong's body, I was startled, and thought to myself, is it an illusion.

I thought about it, maybe I had fallen into the magic barrier, and I just wanted to turn back, but I found myself standing in the courtyard, and my wife shouted, "Daughters, come out to meet the guests."

This sentence made me feel that Mo Min was wonderful, and suddenly I saw the door of the wing room open, and five or six women walked out, all of them with graceful figures, foxy appearances, light movements, and pleasant laughter, just listening to it has a feeling of intoxication, I saw that Wang Hong's eyes had long been blurred, and I was a little more happy in my heart, but I was suddenly frightened when I saw them dressed.

for they were clothed in the garments of the ancients.
