Volume 1 Village Gossip Chapter 12 The Man Behind It
It is very easy to find the soul of the ruffian, and it is very easy to restore the soul of the ruffian.
When the ruffian woke up in the morning sun, Aunt Zhang rushed forward at once, hugged the ruffian tightly and cried bitterly, shouting to thank God. This time, the ruffian really walked away from the ghost gate.
He saw me smiling, touched his cheek and eyes, and asked a series of questions with a confused expression: "What happened?" Why is my face and eyes a little sore? Didn't we fall into the well? How long did I sleep? I felt as if I had a terrible dream. ”
I didn't know how to answer him, and opened my mouth with an embarrassed expression.
In the end, it is still the level of the godfather, and he said kindly: "Child, you were scared by your timidity, we rescued you, you had a good sleep, and you slept for two days, scared your mother, and thought something happened to you!" ”
"Yes......" The ruffian seemed to look at me and then at her mother.
We all affirmed Grandpa's rhetoric, and then he was skeptical, pointing at Master and Grandpa and smirking: "Hehe, these two people are dressed really strangely, an old Taoist priest, an old mage......"
Before he finished speaking, his face instantly collapsed, and he asked, "Did I really meet a ghost, and my dream was really right?" ”
Don't look at his usual heartlessness, but now he is sensitive.
Grandpa Godon maintained a kind smile, pinched up the big truth, and said: "Ghosts and gods, if you believe it, if you don't believe it, if you don't believe it, you don't have it, all living beings in this world are connected, and the reason for existence is different, who can tell which is true and which is false?" The reality of dreams has always been difficult to solve, even if there is wisdom such as Zhou Gongdan, peeking at the sun, moon and stars, and writing classic books for interpreting dreams, but it is not possible to describe thousands of dreams and clear times. How can I answer this question? ”
Grandpa's ability to fool people can be described as perfect, and even Aunt Zhang and I were said to be blindsided, and our heads couldn't turn for a while, so I had to secretly admit that it was indeed reasonable.
The ruffian was even more confused, stunned for a long time, and then nodded his head.
Grandpa shook his sleeves and said, "Okay, you're fine, it's fine, let's go." ”
We turned to leave, and before leaving, I said to the ruffian to get some rest.
However, from beginning to end, Aunt Zhang didn't say a word of thanks to Master and Grandpa, and she didn't even send it. Anyway, the master and the godfather ran around all night for the ruffian, but they didn't say anything at all, which was really a bit excessive, and why did they pull their faces when they begged them at first.
I was angry in my heart, but Master and Godgrandpa didn't seem to care at all.
The ruffian's side is here, it can be regarded as a stone to put down, and we hurried home to ask Grandma Fang for questioning.
At this time, the winter sun was already on the top, and the master and godfather didn't even eat breakfast, so at the request of the grandparents, they ate breakfast first, during which Grandma Fang woke up, covered her head, and walked out slowly.
When she woke up from a dream and appeared at our house, she was surprised and asked us why she slept at my house, and said that she had a headache and was dizzy. I guess I was shocked by the master's mantra last night.
I have been running around with Master for the past few days, and I have been calling Master one by one, and my grandparents can see it in their eyes, and they can more or less realize the path I will take in the future, plus their respect for Master and Godgrandpa, so they choose not to ask anything about our affairs.
As soon as Grandma Fang asked, the people in the room were silent.
Master and Godgrandpa didn't answer, let her eat breakfast first, and Master also deliberately explained that she drank a bowl of honey water, which should be used to relieve headaches.
Grandma Fang didn't know what the two of them were going to do, and kept looking at the two of them with suspicion.
After breakfast, let Grandma Fang take us to see Fang Xuan's cemetery.
When we left home, it was already sunset, and the winter sun shone on our bodies warmly, like the arms of our parents.
We followed the river all the way south, climbed over a bald mulberry forest, and on a shallow beach at the bend of the river, we saw a low rock pile, and the projection of a mound was just over the stone pile, blocking the warm sun.
I remembered at once that we had gone awry, and the ruffians had picked up human bones, and it was here that I vividly remembered that several of us had rummaged through the pile of small stones in search of suitable stones.
I didn't know anything at the time, but when I think about it now, I can't help but get goosebumps all over my body.
Grandma Fang pointed to the stone pile and said that it was the grave of her grandson Fang Xuan, she was an old woman who had no strength, and the pit dug with the trunk of a tree at that time was very shallow, and she was afraid of being cut open by wild dogs, so she piled up stones.
I saw the burning ashes of paper ingots on the edge of the stone pile, it seems that Grandma Fang has been here recently.
Ordinary family elders pass away, the grave is sited, people will be invited to come to see, or fortune tellers, or temple monks, Grandma Fang directly buried Fang Xuan on the spot, it seems that she is indeed a little hasty, and she may also be heartbroken and lose her mind.
Grandpa Gan immediately said the feng shui of this place: "The land of the water ring is the belly of the dragon, the dragon's limbs, and the land of yang, and there are hills in the west and east of the ground, and the anode is prosperous and yin. Choose a cemetery, the best place is where yin and yang are harmonious and the four qi are smooth. Old Madam Fang, you are confused! How could you choose such a shady and wet place to bury your grandchildren! ”
Grandma Fang burst into tears and said, "I don't know feng shui either!" At that time, I was sad and fainted, and I just wanted to bury Xuan'er early, and someone told me that this place was suitable for a cemetery, so I buried him! ”
Master and Godgrandpa suddenly said in unison, "What! ”
Master then asked, "Who told you?" Why didn't you mention it to us? ”
Grandma Fang was sad when she thought of Fang Xuan, her old tears were full of tears, she couldn't stop, and while wiping the corners of her eyes full of, she said: "He is not from the village, he happened to pass by, so he told me that Xuan'er needs to be buried immediately in this situation, otherwise it is easy to change, and then said that the river is a good burial place, so he buried it on the spot." I didn't think there was anything wrong with this person, so I didn't talk about it. ”
Grandpa Gan then took out a bowl and a blackened willow leaf from his arms, which we saw at Fang's house, and asked Grandma Fang: "The willow leaf water in your house and the method of worship are also what he told you?" ”
Grandma Fang only then heard that something was wrong, and sobbed and said, "That's right, he taught me, saying that it can relieve my longing pain and let Xuan'er rest in peace." At first, I didn't believe it, but I had nightmares for several days and dreamed that Xuan'er was crying and shouting at me that he was in pain, so I did it according to that person's method, and it was really useful, and then I dreamed that Xuan'er was playing with me every day, so I kept it on. What's wrong? Any questions? ”
Grandpa shook his head vigorously, but did not speak.
I have to admit that ignorance is terrible. However, Grandma Fang is a person of her age, how can we blame her, but it is a pity that Fang Xuan was tortured, and he could not enter reincarnation, turning into a wisp of lonely soul wandering in the world.
The most hateful person should be the person behind the malicious guidance, who is obviously uneasy and kind.
Grandma Fang was even more surprised when she saw Grandpa God's behavior like this, and asked us what the problem was.
Master looked at her deeply, we really don't know how to speak, we are afraid of breaking her old man's heart, if we let her know that because of her actions out of love, it will hurt Fang Xuan even more, I am afraid that she will blame herself so much that she doesn't want to live.
The master was silent for a long time, and then said to the other grandmother: "Old lady Fang, you are doing the right thing, Fang Xuan, you should have rested in peace, and you have entered the reincarnation early, let's go back." ”
Grandma Fang was obviously stunned, feeling that Master's words were a little sudden, and felt that we seemed to have something to hide from her, but she didn't dare to ask, for fear of committing a taboo. After thinking about it, he said, "Two masters, are you really okay?" If it's okay, I will ask the two of you to do a Dharma service for my grandchildren, which is also my last wish! Good no good? ”
Grandpa nodded and said, "Okay, but we need to go back to buy something, we have to go back first." ”
Only then did she persuade Grandma Fang, and she came to Fang Xuan's tomb to worship three times, and then went back with us.
At the door of her house, Grandma Fang took the master's hand, tears rolled down again, and said: "My grandson is destined to be pitiful when he is born, my son and daughter-in-law are ruthless and leave him, my old woman has suffered all her life, and she can't give him a stable and happy life, but she was beaten to death when she was less than four years old, what a sin." Ask the two Taoist elders to do a good job and do a Dharma for him wholeheartedly, old woman, I have this one wish in my life, whatever you want, I will agree, as long as my old woman can do it. ”
Si Zhi has passed away, and I know that Grandma Fang can no longer do anything for Fang Xuan in her heart, maybe asking the master to do a ritual can be regarded as the best blessing she can do. Fang Xuan's short life was painful and tormenting, but having such a grandmother who was desperate to raise and take care of him was the only fortunate thing in his life.
It's a pity that Grandma Fang can only live the rest of her life with longing and self-blame.
Master shook Grandma Fang's hand tightly, reassuring her that they would do their best.
Grandma Fang returned to the house with peace of mind.
People can't be resurrected from death, and only that endless longing is the most heart-wrenching.
Master and Grandpa looked at each other, a small light emanated from their eyes, and said Let's go again, this time to find out the person behind the ghost!
At this moment, I also hate the person behind the scenes, what is the purpose of his doing?
We returned to Fang Xuan's tomb again, the master directly took the wooden staff and pushed away the stone pile, revealing a small handful of soft soil, the master quickly recited the mantra in his mouth, and a strong wind suddenly blew in the mountains and forests, and the surrounding leaves rattled.
I saw that the soil was gradually blown away by the wind, and several pieces of Bai Sensen's human bones were slowly revealed, and the skeleton was gradually complete.
I saw that the bones were very small, small children. Nothing else is special, except that the one body bone is connected to two skulls, which is really impactful. But the fear in my heart was trampled under my feet by a pity, so I was not afraid because of it.
This is Fang Xuan, a twin spirit child, an extremely poor toddler.
Master and Grandpa examined it carefully, but what Master said next made my eyes instantly wet, "The ribs, arms, and leg bones are all broken, the skull is cracked, there is a half-fist, the jaw and cheekbones are cracked, and the eyebrow bones are sunken...... What kind of beatings did this child suffer before he died! At the end of Master's words, his vocal cords were shaking.
"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable......" Grandpa Godfather sighed, his voice trembling.
At first, I thought that the people who killed Fang Xuan deserved sympathy, but now, I feel that they deserve it even if they die!
I can think of Fang Xuan, this strange and poor child, who was able to come out and play at night, but in the winter night, it was cold and silent, as if there was only Fang Xuan in heaven and earth, he ran happily, dressed in starlight. There was a night breeze blowing, with sweet moisture and laughter like silver bells. However, suddenly a group of people rushed out of the night, shouting monsters, kicking Fang Xuan down, countless sticks and bricks fell, he curled up and cried, shouting for grandma to save me, or he had already fainted from the heavy blow, and let others beat him.
Can such a weak child escape? Can you resist? The dull voice was like the chant of death, and the sound of invective was piercing and unpleasant, echoing in what should have been a beautiful night, and the blood flowing was so red, but it was a fresh life that was gone. Those people beat Fang Xuan to the point where he was dying, so they pushed him into the river without looking, and let the deep dark river drift away with him in ignorance, with endless pain and resentment, disappearing into the vast night, disappearing at the entrance of the underworld.
The air was silent, only the wind, which seemed to be crying and whining.
Master gritted his teeth, carefully examined Fang Xuan's remains, and after a long time, said, "The two kneecaps are not to mention, the remains are very complete, but only the finger bones are missing. ”
