Quicklime is easy to say, we are not far from here is the lime kiln, specializing in burning lime, you may not have seen the lime kiln, this is with a unique limestone, burn charcoal fire below, grow stones on top, burn fire, directly burn the stone white, it becomes lime, lime at this time is particularly corrosive.

When I went back to the village and told our village manager, he heard that it was the lime that the master wanted, and immediately patted his chest and promised that he would find someone to push the lime overnight today and send it to Lao Niutan early tomorrow morning. Master's prestige in the village is not said. The next day we had breakfast, the master let each of us carry a wooden stick, he put on a robe, with the ghost head knife and a peach wood sword that he took from Zhang Shan's house, and some yellow paper cinnabar pens, and went towards Lao Niutan, we just got there, we saw that the willow forest was full of people, everyone saw that we were coming, they all gathered around, asked questions, the master smiled and did not speak, until he walked to a high stone, the master stood there and said loudly, "The villagers must be very strange, what am I buying these quicklime for?" I tell you, I use this quicklime to eliminate the harm for everyone. Everyone also knows that this old Niutan has drowned many people over the years, but these people are alive and dead, and they can't see their bodies, do you know why? ”

The people below were all talking, and then the Master continued, "This is because there are water ghosts in the old cow pool, that is, water monkeys, and it is the water monkey or the ghost in it that transforms into a human, or the person who has lost his foot, and is pulled under the water by the water monkey, and now these corpses are lying at the bottom of the old cow pool. ”

At this time, there were people who had drowned, and they cried there, and when they cried, they cried into a piece, thinking of these drowned people, who had not seen anyone alive or dead for all these years, and now they knew that they were killed by water monkeys, how could they not be sad, Master said, "Don't cry, I will do it now, and when the auspicious time comes, I will bring you a boiled monkey." ”

Everyone said yes, the master asked me to take the yellow paper, and then used cinnabar to write the notice sheet, and drew the yellow paper talisman, after finishing it, the master took the peach wood sword, danced there, and sang while dancing the sword: "The master's sword is a living Buddha, and the ancestors have many spells." Sit slightly in front of the Dragon and Tiger Mountain, and the seven-star sword slashes the demon. I would like to ask for the five thunders to descend quickly, as quickly as the law decrees. ”

Then he said: "Master Zu came to do the way for heaven and slay demons. ”

Then the peachwood sword danced faster and faster, and those who watched the excitement below were stunned and discussed, and then the master stopped dancing the sword and said, "Everyone push the cart to the water's edge, surround the whole old cow pool, and wait for my order, and the big guys will put the quicklime into the old cow pond together." ”

The people pushing the cart all nodded, and I saw that my father was also among the people pushing lime, and after the master finished speaking, he continued to dance the sword, and then burst into a shout: "Boil the monkey in boiling water, pour the lime." ”

After my father and they listened, they poured the lime into the old cow pond together, and suddenly the whole old cow pond was lively, the lime sank down, decomposed, released heat, the whole old cow pond smoked, and then the water in the old cow pond boiled, bubbling and bubbling, and the heat carried the unique smell of lime. Master said, "Be bold and look around with sticks, and hit anything that comes out of the water. ”

After we agreed, we took the stick, looked at the movement in the water, the whole water was turbid, suddenly in the old cow pond in a place wrong, that place seemed to float up a ball of aquatic plants, and then there was a terrible cry, that cry was very terrifying, as if it was extremely painful, extremely miserable, it made people feel uncomfortable, those who watched the excitement behind me, frightened to run away, I quickly looked towards the aquatic grass, this careful look, it was the water monkey, I saw that the water monkey was desperately grasping his eyes, his sharp fingers were scratching the blood from his eyes, and the scratched skin was stained with lime water, and the water monkey was in even more pain.

I saw that the water monkey was rolling vigorously in the old cow pool, and the cry was even more terrible, and it seemed that the water monkey was now going crazy in pain, and then the master said, "Bold, you are optimistic about the water monkey, don't let the water monkey come out and hurt people." ”

As soon as the three of us heard this, we quickly clenched the wooden stick in our hands, stared at the water monkey in the water, how high the water monkey jumped in the water, jumped up and down, and then suddenly jumped to the shore, and turned around and ran away from the excitement on the shore, several of the children, as if pushed to the ground by the fleeing adults, they were there and cried, the water monkey's eyes were invisible, but the ears still worked, after it heard the sound, it crawled directly towards those children, the fool was closest to the water monkey, he saw the water monkey to hurt the child, Directly hit the water monkey's mouth, but I didn't expect the water monkey to open its mouth and bite the stick at once, and I didn't let go, I saw the water monkey's fangs, all bitten into the wood.

I saw that the water monkey did not let go, an arrow ran over, a stick towards the water monkey's head smashed, click, this time the water monkey knocked dizzy, the stick in the mouth did not bite, the thin monkey caught up at this time, our three brothers and sisters messed with sticks, the water monkey was smashed, and the smell of rotting corpses was exuded, then the master came over, took the ghost head knife, and said: "Don't be bold, this scourge is above the water, there is no ability, come, take this ghost head knife, and punish for the sky, Chop the water monkey under the knife. ”

I took the heavy ghost-headed knife, and the Master said, "The water monkey is evil, when you cut the water monkey, recite the talisman I taught you, so that you will not provoke resentment." ”

When I heard this, I raised the heavy ghost head knife and said silently in my heart: "Protect yourself in front and protect yourself in the back, save the suffering and save Guanyin." There is the Jade Emperor Guan Shengdi and a Polo God below. Please ask Taro God in the east, and invite Emperor Taiding Fire in the south. Amitabha Buddha was born in the west, and there is auspicious light Erlang God in the north. The four King Kongs are guarded, and the eight treasures Nezha protect me. I am now thinking of the talisman to kill all the demons and kill the ghosts and gods. I am as anxious as the law. ”

After finishing speaking, I gritted my teeth and slashed the ghost head knife, poof, when I looked at it again, the water monkey had been cut in two, and green mucus flowed out of the water monkey's body, and the stench made people vomit, I was afraid that the green thing would defile my ghost head knife, so I quickly picked up the ghost head knife and looked at it, and found that there was no green thing on the ghost head knife, and then I knew that the ghost head knife was indeed a good knife. After killing the water monkey, someone picked it up with a willow branch and buried the water monkey somewhere else, and then the stench slowly dissipated.

Since Master said that many corpses were sleeping in Lao Niutan, so some of the deceased's families begged Master to let these corpses come up, Master listened to everyone's words, and walked back and forth there, as if thinking about something, I knew that this matter must be tricky, Master walked a few steps, and then said: "These dead bodies have been sinking into Lao Niutan for many years, and they have been soaked in water and it is impossible for them to come up by themselves, and the water in Lao Niutan is extremely deep, and it is impossible for people to go down to fish for corpses. Then let these corpses come up by themselves, fortunately, at that time, the water monkey sealed the seven orifices of the person, so that the soul could not come out in the body, and after night, I borrowed the power of the ghosts and gods to let these corpses float up by themselves. ”

As soon as the master said this, everyone suddenly started to talk about it, and let the people who had been dead for many years float up by themselves, this is a lively thing worth seeing, at that time in the countryside, as soon as it gets dark, the whole village is blinded by black lights, can you not be happy to see this excitement? Master went on to say, "Whoever drowns someone, everyone tells me the name of the deceased, and after all these years, the corpse will definitely not be recognized, but as long as there is the name and character of the deceased, each family can find their relatives." ”

As soon as Master said this, the family members of the deceased all ran to Master and said the names and characters of the drowned people in their own house, and Master used a cinnabar pen to write them down one by one.
