Chapter 53: Resurrection
After following the prophetic dream and seeing it now, there is also a trace of doubt in my heart, in the future, this Hu Hui must have returned to her father's side again with the help of her grandfather, but how did she do it? Now I am strictly speaking an underground burial master, but according to the knowledge in the burial scriptures, I don't know that the burial scriptures can also interfere with reincarnation.
At this time, Grandpa and Hu Dabao seemed to have mentioned a concept - resurrection. By the way, the grandfather did not tell Hu Dabao that he wanted her daughter to be reincarnated again and return to him, but said that he would use the way of resurrection. The knowledge of resurrection was recorded in the funeral scriptures, and I made a little inquiry and came to my mind.
Resurrection is a very important project, and the rules are very strict, and it can even be said that in addition to the burial master, other professions, such as psychic mediums, witches, wizards, god operators, corpse chasers, etc., these schools of techniques also contain spells similar to resurrection, but they are not real resurrections.
The resurrection of the earth burial master is to really return a person's soul to a new body, and there are two important conditions that must be achieved to achieve this, one is to ensure the integrity of the original soul, and the other is to eliminate the soul in the new body from the beginning.
Theoretically speaking, it may seem a little difficult to understand, but in practice it is very simple to do - first find a good soul container, such as a delicate puppet, a paper figure with special processing is a good container, put the soul well, and purify the evil spirit in the soul little by little through sacrifice.
When a person turns into a soul after death, he will inevitably be contaminated with evil spirits, so every soul needs to be purified before it can be put into a container, otherwise when the soul returns to a new body, it will not be a human being, but an evil ghost. Another thing that may be a bit unethical to do is that when the 7749th day of the child's mother's womb is formed, the soul is extracted through a ritual and let it enter the six realms of reincarnation again.
Theoretically, I know this method, but if I were asked to do this, I would definitely not be able to do it, I am not a mature underground burial master, and I need more experience. But his grandfather has been engaged in underground burial for most of his life, and these things are not difficult for him.
When Hu Dabao and Hu Hui's souls were separated, and after Grandpa left, the time in the foreknowledge dream also jumped a large span, everything in front of me became very blurry, and the space gradually began to distort, and when I came back to my senses, the appearance of Honggang Village also changed dramatically - from the entrance of the village, a lot of red brick houses have been built.
At this time, Hu Dabao had already lost a lot of weight - if it weren't for a red soul fire flashing above his head, I probably wouldn't have been able to recognize this person as Hu Dabao. At this time, Hu Dabao was setting up a stall on the street, I leaned over and took a curious look, the stall was not selling anything great, daily sundries, as well as hardware and living things, all kinds of things, everything was sold, just like a grocery vendor.
Compared with when he lost his daughter Hu Hui, Hu Dabao looked better at this time, although his beard was sloppy, his body was dark and thin, and the gray hair mixed with his hair when he was older added a trace of vicissitudes to him, but time always helped him smooth out some sadness.
Hu Dabao shouted at the pedestrians coming and going, the look on his face was not very eager, and he seemed to be used to shouting like this. I found that although clutter accounted for 90% of Hu Dabao's vendors, there were some things that caught my eye.
For example, the broken piece of pottery was only the size of a palm, but the blue lines on it made my eyes shine. I grew up with my grandfather since I was a child, and I read almost all the books in his study, and in that pile of books, there is a "Chinese Celadon Record", which records the famous antique porcelain of various dynasties and generations.
When I was a child, I didn't want to look at any words, although the pictures on this Chinese celadon record are black and white, and some are a little simple, but after all, it is a painting, which attracted my attention, chatting and reading for a while, and the whole three volumes of the appreciation record are for me to see.
This book later I learned that it was not a reading published by a publishing house, but a friend of my grandfather - an old man who loves to collect antiques, his identity is mysterious, but his friendship with his grandfather seems to be not shallow, according to my own guess is because of the identity of my grandfather's underground burial master - to say that to explore the treasure cave of feng shui, to explore the Chinese dragon veins buried deep underground, there is no one better at it than our underground burial master.
As for the winding down the five lakes and seas in the southeast and north of China along the dragon vein, there is no need to say anything about it. My grandfather told me that the mysterious old man of the antique collector had published this celadon catalogue on his own before he died, and then only gave it to a few old friends as a souvenir.
This person has an eccentric nature, although this book was given to his grandfather who he has not seen for more than ten years, but he has not left it to his children and grandchildren. I didn't know it when I read this book at the time, but when I grew up, my grandfather told me that the knowledge about antique porcelain recorded on it was very profound, and even the information that was lacking in the reading books published by the state was written in it.
And it is precisely because of this that looking at the fragments of celadon sold by Hu Dabao, the memory in my mind also woke up at once - this is the white light porcelain of the Northern Song Dynasty, which is mainly identified by the color of the blue and white patterns on the surface and the crystallization of the edges.
The blue and white hair color is elegant, with crystalline spots, and although there is a layer of dust attached to the surface, it can still be seen that it is translucent, and there are not many good things left now.
It is estimated that the farmers in the deep mountains and old forests can dig out two, but they may not have it, because I remember that in the 90s, tomb robbery was prevalent, and many complete ancient emperors' tombs were dug up.
I looked at the fragments of the white light porcelain, and thought to myself that Hu Dabao was quite obedient, and did not dig the ancient tomb without permission when his grandfather did not return, but this white light porcelain is not a cabbage that can be picked up all over the ground, and I deduced that Hu Dabao should have explored in the Langzi Mountain on the northwest side of Honggang Village in the past few years.
However, it is also human nature, and anyone who knows that there are countless gold, silver and jewels buried in the mountains not far away will be moved. This Hu Dabao is still a sincere person, and his grandfather did not stay by his side to supervise him, he still obediently complied and did not dig the grave first.
But after thinking about it, I think it's understandable - for Hu Dabao, more important than those gold, silver and jewelry, is the life of his daughter Hu Hui. If the grandfather came back and knew that he didn't do what he asked, he would be angry and wouldn't help her save his daughter, and he would have no place to cry out.
Hu Dabao has been setting up a stall until about evening, today's business is average, two old wives came to buy a few daily necessities, and the farmers passing by on the way home bought two polished hoes, the money must not make a few points, but he is alone with coarse tea and light food, and it is barely enough to support himself.
On the way back, Hu Dabao saw an old man who was bent over his waist and struggling to carry heavy loads, and hurriedly ran up to help him take things up the slope, the things were not light, and Hu Dabao was sweating all the way, but he looked very relieved, I thought to myself that Hu Dabao still remembered what his grandfather said to him about doing a good deed every day to accumulate yin virtue for his daughter.
And that night, Hu Dabao fell asleep early, but in the early hours of the morning, I heard a knock on the door, Hu Dabao woke up and went to open the door in a daze, with a puzzled face, but after opening the door, grandpa stood there, carrying a big package.
Through the dim light, Hu Dabao was pleasantly surprised after recognizing that it was his grandfather, and immediately pulled him in to catch up. It was the first time I saw my grandfather at the age of 60, because in my memory, he was almost seventy years old for as long as I can remember.
Grandpa seems to have prepared a lot of things for Hu Hui's affairs in the past two years, several small medicine bottles, which contain all kinds of powders, bronze, iron, and jade, all of which have been prepared a lot, at first glance, in order to hold a ceremony to help Hu Dabao bring Hu Hui's soul back.
Grandpa told Hu Dabao that he had prepared most of the materials in the past two years, but there were still a few things missing, Hu Dabao was very anxious when he heard it, and asked grandpa what they were and whether it was difficult to find. Grandpa told Hu Dabao that when he was in the middle of tomorrow, he would follow him to the natural spring on the south side of Langzi Mountain to pick two jade lotus seeds.
Hu Dabao looked a little puzzled, and asked his grandfather what this jade lotus seed was used for, and grandpa and Hu Dabao said that he would know when the time came, for Hu Dabao, grandpa was almost a life-saving benefactor, and at the moment he believed everything he said, without the slightest suspicion, and immediately went to sleep to get ready to recuperate.
But I know what my grandfather's jade lotus seeds are used for. Jade lotus seeds are rare medicinal materials, and they are good to eat raw, and they are used to squeeze out the fruit liquid in it and preserve it for natural fermentation. But the reason why grandpa wanted to take Hu Dabao to get the jade lotus seeds was probably not for the jade beads inside, but for the jade lotus.
Even in the eyes of me, a ground burial master who is just beginning to enter the Dao, the evil qi on Hu Hui's body is really too heavy, and it is by no means something that can be done overnight to eliminate such a serious evil qi. Whether it is a doll or a paper figure, the most difficult thing to guarantee as a container is its durability.
However, the durability of jade lotus seeds is unique, and as long as they are stored properly, it is not difficult to store them for even ten years. And the reason why Grandpa wanted to take Hu Dabao with him was probably to add his flesh and blood as a soul guide, and at the same time to absorb some of his soul power. As long as Hu Dabao has accumulated enough yin virtue over the years, it can play a role in completely purifying the evil qi on Hu Hui's body.
The matter of resurrecting the soul, although it is the unique skill of the underground burial master, is not a magic skill, and if the soul is not careful, it is easy to cause the ghost of the underworld to notice, because the movement to be made is too big - this thing is said to be a resurrection, but in fact, it is to hide from the sky and the sea, without letting the king of the underworld notice, send the born soul into reincarnation, and then bring the soul that should have been sent to hell into the world after purification.
Once this kind of thing is known to the ghosts of the underworld, not only Hu Hui and Hu Dabao, a pair of women, will not be able to eat and walk around, but even the underground burial master who manipulates all the rituals will be severely punished - the ghosts of the underworld are all uncles, they don't care whether you died unjustly or not, as long as you die, it will be an ending of soul locking and hooking the soul.
After all, for the ghosts of the underworld, the lonely souls and wild ghosts wandering in the world, they are all achievements, and they must be recorded in their merit books, and when they are reincarnated, they can help them cast a good life.
