There is such an ancient saying that the plague god goes out to fight and does not grow an inch of grass, this courtyard is now the grass and trees are withered, and the people who live in it are piling up to die, is the plague god really coming? Despite this superstitious statement, the inhabitants of the courtyard were still afraid, and they hurried to find the master to come and destroy the evil spirit.
If you want to find a master, it must be the second uncle, according to his own words, he is now famous in six provinces and one city in East China, and no one can beat him, but everyone must know that this rhetoric uses very romantic exaggeration, and it is at least exaggerated no less than 200 million times.
You can also see that this is definitely a lot of work, so my second uncle and I were very attentive and drove to our destination early. If it is really hearing for nothing, seeing is believing, this courtyard is really magnificent, it is a rare five-entry courtyard in China, the cyan ancient bricks are carved with the remnants of wind erosion, simple but endlessly stretching along the central axis, the bright gate of vermilion lacquer can vaguely see the majesty of the past.
The surname Lou who received us, looked very much like a Siwen student, and his speech was also polite, he respectfully said to the second uncle: "Master, please come in!" ”
I knew that in this case, the second uncle would definitely correct his wrong name, and sure enough, as soon as Mr. Lou's voice fell, the second uncle replied with a smile: "Mr. Lou, you misunderstood, in fact, I am a master, not a master." ”
Mr. Lou was slightly stunned when he heard this, his expression was a little shocked, I clearly saw that the corners of his mouth were twitching slightly, and he smiled awkwardly: "Oh? Commission? I didn't expect the master to be a humorous person, and he gave himself such an interesting pronoun. ”
When the second uncle heard Mr. Lou's words, he instantly petrified, and the atmosphere was so embarrassing that it exploded. I guess Mr. Lou should be scolding his mother in his heart at this moment, and he must blame himself for having no eyes and finding a neurotic exorcist.
In fact, sometimes I wonder why my second uncle has been trying to emphasize that he is a fool in front of outsiders, and I asked him why, until later he told me meaningfully that to do business, you must know how to build momentum for yourself, and people who sell shampoo know how to advertise themselves as a family of traditional Chinese medicine, not to mention that we are still really from generation to generation. I thought about it carefully, there was nothing wrong with what he said, a while ago a restaurant in the city opened, and the chef also said that he was the heir of the imperial chef of the previous dynasty, and the diners flocked to it and almost broke the threshold. Sometimes titles can really give people extra points and a big boost, even if it's self-appointed.
In fact, there is no time to dwell on these things without firewood, rice, oil and salt, after all, there are only two people in our cultural industry company, and we are still far from going public, and the most urgent thing is to solve the matter in front of us as soon as possible and make money first.
My second uncle and I moved into the courtyard, only to find that the courtyard is not only magnificent on the outside, but also luxurious on the inside, the decoration is really a magnificent, not only exquisite but also extremely compact, the east and west are the gate house and the hall, the north and south are wings, and the middle is enclosed into a zigzag patio. Around the patio, there are corridors that connect all the rooms in the courtyard into an organic whole.
It's just that the scenery is a little disturbed by a few old men with withered faces and bloodless faces sitting under the eaves basking in the sun, singing popular songs in an unknown era with vague mouths, looking like they are about to die at any time. And all the beautiful flowers and plants planted in the patio have withered, and even the parrot, which has always had many mouths in its birdcage, is now half dead and listless.
Mr. Lou frowned, and cautiously said to the second uncle: "Bench, you can take a look and see what is going on, the old people in the courtyard have died for unknown reasons." ”
“……..” The second uncle blushed with embarrassment when he heard this, although he has always been exaggerated, but he still has a certain amount of self-knowledge, and the word "commission" is really ashamed of him.
The second uncle took out the compass to survey, looked around, and then fell into deep thought.
"It doesn't make sense, according to the feng shui of the courtyard layout, there is nothing abnormal, on the contrary, it is still very good. Why do all the flowers and plants wither, and the fish and birds die? The second uncle said to himself.
However, the second uncle has also improved, and he didn't say the mantra "This is not scientific", which made me feel a little at ease, otherwise I would definitely be laughed at by Mr. Lou. I think it's not just a small step in his words, but a big step in his life.
"Feng Shui is not bad, and I haven't been able to detect any resentful spiritual power, but the situation is developing so severely, this is not scientific!"
it! I didn't expect that the second uncle would need to add a word urgently. As soon as he said this, I was so shocked that I almost fell to the ground, and I was really happy and sad.
"That's strange, these old people are not sick, if they are not haunted, then why are they inexplicably losing weight day by day, and finally they don't want to die." Mr. Lou was very puzzled when he heard his second uncle's words.
My second uncle often said that we should see the essence through the phenomenon, and I felt that the whole incident was not so complicated, and I expressed my unique insight to them.
"Second uncle, I think it should be the old people in the hospital who have lovesickness, right? After all, the villagers have lived together for decades, and they have a deep relationship, and they miss the death of their old friends, and finally they are too sad and don't want to follow the crane west, so as to form a vicious chain reaction. I said thoughtfully, I personally think this reasoning is quite reliable.
The second uncle looked at me with hopeless eyes, and then slowly spit out a sentence: "People are stupid and there is really no medicine!" According to you, not all the people of the world will die. ”
I was speechless again, and could only sigh that I was unladylike when I met someone! Even if there are outsiders, he doesn't leave me any affection, and he sprays wildly when he gets the opportunity.
The second uncle told Mr. Lou that although he didn't know what caused such a bad consequence, he was sure that someone was definitely doing something bad because the magnetic field in the courtyard was a little abnormal, so he asked Mr. Lou to find a way to temporarily move out of the courtyard first, and he would live in the courtyard for a period of time before making a conclusion.
Mr. Lou also agreed very simply, saying that after such a death, there were not many people living in the hospital, and it was not difficult to ask them to move out temporarily.
However, the second uncle suddenly stopped Mr. Lou and told him that when the residents moved, it was better not to make a big deal and it was better to do it secretly, although Mr. Lou didn't know why he did this, but he didn't ask much, he said that everything should be done according to the second uncle's wishes.
Just do it, Mr. Lou quickly mobilized the residents in the courtyard to move out, and the efficiency was really fast, and I and my second uncle were left in a huge five-entry courtyard.
But things are not as simple as we imagined, my second uncle and I searched all the corners of the courtyard, and even used tricks such as pen fairy channeling, but still couldn't find a reason.
Ordinary evil magic is nothing more than paralyzing people's senses and destroying people's mechanisms with vicious Taoism in order to achieve the effect of harming people invisibly, but the second uncle has explored for a long time and has not found any magic seals in this courtyard.
The second uncle thought for a long time, and suddenly said to me that this courtyard may have been lowered, if this is the case, then it will be serious, we are in danger in it, this time I am afraid that the old Taoist priest will be called again.
Dangerous? How fierce can it be? A day without money is called dangerous.
"Don't! Second uncle, why do you want to pull that obscene old man in to get a piece of the pie, isn't this a shit! And the old Taoist priest is a master in the world, where is "I was a little anxious when I heard it, and quickly reminded the second uncle.
"Bastard, I don't want to die if you want to! Do you know how ferocious it is to lower your head? "The second uncle saw that I was obsessed with money, and he got up and swore at me again.
Isn't lowering the head a kind of advanced witchcraft, I've seen a lot of Lin Zhengying's ghost movies, it's probably some Miaojiang wizards using some toads, snakes, scorpions, centipedes or something to do evil magic, not just wear a pair of red pants and drizzle some fresh dog blood can easily break it.
The second uncle didn't want to talk to me too much, he took out his newly bought smartphone and clumsily dialed Lao Dao's phone, explained the situation here to Lao Dao, and then asked for his help.
Before half a pillar of incense was done, I saw Lao Dao coming panting. In fact, I have always wondered what kind of face the old Taoist priest had, who claimed to be a master in the world, and as long as he smelled the smell of copper, he would go crazy as a dog smelling feces. Sometimes looking at his thin torso, it is hard for you to imagine that such a monk who is about to enter the ground with most of his body is actually a perfect old man who is proficient in eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling.
"Master, it seems that money can not only make ghosts push the mill, but also make the mill push the ghosts. You've come so fast, in the blink of an eye. I jokingly told him.
The second uncle gave me a blank look and warned me to respect the master, how the master said it is also a highly respected person, he has cooperated with Lao Dao for so many years and has never said a word to Lao Dao, my behavior is tantamount to breaking ground on Tai Sui's head.
Lao Dao told the second uncle not to worry, the child is not sensible, he will not be as knowledgeable as me, and then hurriedly took out the compass from the law bag and began to investigate.
After a long time, Lao Dao took a deep breath and stopped.
"How about the master? Got eyebrows? The second uncle ran over and asked him eagerly.
Lao Dao shook his head helplessly, and then said embarrassedly: "I'm ashamed to say that I don't have any eyebrows at all, but judging from my experience, it should have nothing to do with what you said about lowering your head." But Xiaoliang, you didn't find it, the magnetic field in this courtyard is very weird. ”
The second uncle nodded, and in his heart he was scolding the old nonsense, trying to ask which supernatural event is normal for the geomagnetic field to occur, this is almost nonsense.
The old Taoist priest told us not to worry, it really can't be done to stay here for one night today, so that we can always understand the general situation. But I'm against it, after all, so many people have died in this courtyard, and now I guess that someone has been demoted, and I admit it at a young age.
