Many years later, I still remember that Uncle Luo as he was, even though I was still very young at that time.

If you say who has the most prestige in this small village!

According to the ideas in daily life, of course, it must be Niu Ye Tang Batian! He is a recognized leader of his time, regardless of merit or demerit.

According to the thoughts of the common people, at least as far as I know, before the last century, the most prestigious person must have been Uncle Luo.

In that era, more than 30 years later, when the four olds were broken and even the feudal ideology was swept away. The villagers are still in awe of ghosts and gods, even inexplicably afraid.

The profession of ghost hunting has no future, and even in the era after the people of the whole country have arrived in their homes, it has gradually ceased to be a profession. Because for more than ten years after liberation, in the era of unity, no one dared to mention this matter at all.

But in our village, people have been mentioning it for many years, and even today there are people who believe it. That's because as one of the ancestral hometowns of the Tang family, there is an ancestral cemetery shared by the Tang family, with all kinds of complicated sacrifices and rituals.

Since the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the ancestors of the Tang family have been awarded the title of commander and envoy, and moved from the ancestral land of the Hakka family in Nanxiong, Lingnan, and finally the descendants of the descendants mutated from the Hakka people to the Hunan Chu people again. In less than a hundred years, a descendant settled here and eventually multiplied here.

Judging from the genealogy, although the Tang family has not produced any super powerful figures, there are always a few descendants who will be involved with the authorities and the court every hundred years. Even in modern times, there are a few predecessors in our room, which is said to be good.

One is the ancestor who served as the imperial physician in the former imperial palace, not only the man of the year, but also the ancestor who was given the plaque of the great doctor by the emperor; One is a great-grandfather-level predecessor in modern times, who was a student capitalist studying abroad before liberation. It is said that he was the richest man in our city that year, and he was a classmate of a famous general of the present generation.

Because of the relationship between the general's classmates, this great-grandfather avoided the catastrophic era and got a good death. However, although his family suffered some disasters, I knew as an adult that his children and descendants were big names in the surrounding cities.

So strictly speaking, although this village is small, because it is the ancestral home of the family, many descendants have gone out.

The Chinese have an excellent inheritance, that is, the fallen leaves return to their roots!

Even if I don't know how many generations have been out, the soul that has nowhere to put it wants to return to its ancestral homeland.

In the village, there is the largest Yizhuang in Lifu City, which is surnamed Tang, and it is said to be one of the three largest Yizhuang in the surrounding area.

(In fact, the largest Yizhuang in the family is in a village more than 20 miles away.) However, it has now become someone else's village, because in that special era, the land that originally belonged to the Tang family was divided. And those who kept the righteous village for the Tang family at the beginning actually multiplied themselves and became a village. ）

Uncle Luo belonged to the foreign surname and moved into the village, and he was one of the people who moved into the village in that special era. Later, when he could return to the city, he chose that his household registration source was the village. Although he went to work in the provincial town, he regarded it as his home.

He lived in the Tang family's Yizhuang, and the people in the village respected him very much, and really regarded him as the aboriginal of the village. I remember that for as long as I can remember, I have never been to the place where he lived. Because when I see the mountains of graves and the lush forests around me, my legs go limp.

That place was extremely yin, and I don't know why he chose to live there. But I know that he has three children left in the village, a son and two daughters, and the youngest son and daughter follow them in the provincial capital.

And it seems that his eldest daughter Luo Ting also recognizes Mrs. Yi as dry milk, so his daughter and Niu Ye are still relatives. Later, I learned that his eldest son Luo Ying also recognized my grandmother as a godmother, and he actually had something to do with my family.

I didn't know the day Thinfoot was buried. When I got home from school that day, my mother wrapped a black thread around my left hand and tied it very carefully. I asked my mom what it was for, and she didn't tell me.

But then I overheard the old people in the compound say, and I learned that the thread was used to ward off evil spirits. It is said that because my courage was too small, and because my thin feet were too heavy, my mother specially begged for it from Uncle Luo.

I naturally obeyed my mother's arrangement, a thread can't affect anything, not to mention that children in that era didn't have jewelry at all. Later, after knowing the reason, it seemed that the moment I put on the black thread, I felt that I was not afraid for a while.

That day, I heard a worrying thing. Because of this incident, the people in the village have been afraid of it for a long time.

The reason is that every time in the countryside and villages, if something ominous happens, or when someone dies. The old people are always worried and suspicious of some hidden powers, and they will ask some monks, mages or masters, hoping to get some instructions and answers.

Because these people have a high level of cultivation, it is said that they can open the Heavenly Eye or have already prescribed the Heavenly Eye, and they can see things at night or in some places that others can't see.

The things they reveal will predict something in the future, and something big!

Although as every cultivator, if you leak the Heavenly Secret, you will definitely suffer the curse of Heaven.

People who are truly cultivated will not think of divulging these heavenly secrets. But every cultivator has a heart to save the world. In the spirit of compassion and compassion, they will all make vague hints, or reveal some heavenly opportunities that are difficult for ordinary people to guess.

Even later, many people believed in the science and dismissed these predictions, but in the land where I was born, people still believed in it.

Regardless of whether their predictions were coincidental or not, there were still many things that came true, so the trust of these people in their predictions was strengthened.

On the night when the mortuary was at home, Uncle Luo had spoken, and the whole village knew these words the next day. Not to mention the people in the ten miles and eight towns, everyone who was in the Zhuo family that night knew what Uncle Luo said.

The reason why these words spread was because when the Zhuo family was burning the book, Uncle Luo saw something. To be precise, it was Uncle Luo who saw what others couldn't see, and someone was robbing Zhuo's family to buy money for Slender Feet.

It was creepy, a little mysterious, and incomprehensible, but his words were quickly verified.

After death, the soul is said to go to the underworld, and the way to go to the underworld is usually to be taken away. There are many more legends, and I don't want to go into them all. But one thing that everyone agrees on is that if the family of the deceased is stingy and does not burn some money to buy the road for the soul-bound bull head and horse noodles, the deceased will suffer.

This custom of burning paper money should be a tradition of the Chinese, and it is also a way to carefully chase the distance to show a kind of remembrance of the deceased.

As for the power of the bull-headed horse-face, at least until the deceased reaches hell, they are omnipotent. The family members did not realize that the deceased did not have the so-called money and belongings to buy roads, or was harassed by the lonely ghosts along the way, and even the soul was scattered and could not be reincarnated.

The family burned the deceased's belongings and buried a lot of paper money at the same time, hoping that the deceased could take it with him along the way.

When family members burn these books, they will write the names of the deceased and call the names of the deceased, so that their souls wandering around their homes will come back to collect them.

In any case, when people die, if they have resentment in their hearts, or when they have a trace of unwillingness, they will form an immortal soul when they die, or a feeling of reluctance.

This kind of grievance or feeling is formed by the resentment and obsession of the deceased, and according to the different thoughts and thoughts in his heart, it will become different souls, which is what people call ghosts.

In the countryside, ghosts and ghosts are still two different things. Even though I was still young, I heard people talk about it all the time. Ghosts are conscious and have thoughts, while ghosts are incomplete, and even if they have a trace of thought, it is biased.

But they all have one thing in common, and that's ghosts!

The soul of a ghost that has just passed away has a different state of natural existence depending on whether it is full or absent. When his family burned books and paper money, these were often not available to him.

Because there are still many lonely souls and wild ghosts around, and even some people with extremely low yang energy, their lost souls are wandering around, and they will come to grab them in the same way.

Uncle Luo saw something at that time, and when someone asked about it, what he said probably meant was that the booklet and the money for buying the road had been robbed, and it was not a ghost who came to rob it.

The next morning, someone swore that there were indeed many messy footprints on the pile of burned ashes. Although it looks light, it is clearly left behind by the ghost who snatched the thin feet at night.

The Zhuo family was very worried, so they hurriedly asked Uncle Luo to do it again, and burned a lot of paper money in various directions around the old house. Uncle Luo only said that the result was not mentioned, but because an old man saw that Uncle Luo's face was not good, he asked again and again, and only revealed a little meaning.

It turned out that Thin Feet was a ghost, and it could also be said that he was a stand-in for the water ghost, and even Uncle Luo suspected that the ghost of Thin Feet was gone, and now it was the water ghost who absorbed Thin Feet and was making trouble. Because it has never been able to be reincarnated, there is a lot of resentment in my heart.

Anyway, it was the little soul of the thin feet, and the souls of those robbers had a fierce battle, because of the great resentment, and the Zhuo family burned a lot of money to buy the road, so that the thin feet were very strong. It is said that the final ending is terrifying, because it also hurts a spirit.
