Don't laugh at me, the deepest memory of that era is starvation, as if the whole year of starvation, even if there is a bumper harvest, I will eat a full meal when the grain returns to the warehouse, and at other times, at most, I will eat a large half full, then I still add half of the wild vegetables. I said to the child, "Brother, help me, take me to see it, I don't want more, just a steamed bun." ”

The child said, "This, this is a bit difficult to do, if you really want to go, you have to put someone else's name on it." ”

I said, "Then whose name do I want, you can help me figure it out." ”

The child said: "You are like this, I say to you, you remember, your name is Ma Xiaoer, a person from Wangjiazhuang, fifteen years old this year, and now you go to the Land Temple, and when you get there, you take the customs clearance paperwork and use it on the road." ”

I nodded, happily followed the child to the land temple, now I know, at that time, it was not that I was stupid, but when the soul was out of the body, there was a period of confusion. In fact, the Republic of China still maintains the customs of the Qing Dynasty, that is, there are temples in the villages, and we have a land temple on the village, in the field, there is only a small house, which is for the tablets of the land lord and the land grandmother, and the dead people in the village are sent to the land temple to be entangled.

But when I got there, I was stunned, in the position of the land temple, there was an antique yamen, and the couplet at the door was still the original couplet, which said Mo laughed at my old age and incompetence, and made a wish to try; Even if you have a lot of wealth, don't burn incense and look at it.

I looked at the Land Temple and said to the child, "Is that what we have to eat here?" ”

The child said, "No, it's far away, you go inside and write a paper." ”

I said, "I didn't dare to go in, I was a little scared." ”

The child said, "Don't be afraid, the land lord and the land grandmother are not at home today, after you go, just find someone inside to open a paperwork, I will give this to you, after you send something, nothing will happen." ”

As he spoke, he handed me a yellow and clear thing, now I think it should be a gold ingot, I was poor at that time, I had never seen it at all, after the child gave me the thing, he told me to remember his words, and then let me in.

After I got inside, I really saw a person wearing green soap, that person was writing something there, after I went, I sent the things, the person asked me my name or something, I followed the answer that the child taught me one by one, the person didn't ask more, he took out a piece of paper and wrote Ma Xiaoer's name, and said to me: "It's not easy to go west, it's full of entanglement, and there is no turning back on this road." ”

I didn't know at the time, this document is the text that leads to the underworld, and I don't know why I listened to the child, step by step into the underworld, and then I realized that after the human head and soul are out of the body, they will become a gangster and stiff, and they will only go west vigorously, I don't know how to turn back, and when they get to the underworld, some understand that they are dead on the Huangquan Road, and some go to Wangxiangtai to understand, but as long as they go to Nai He Bridge to drink Meng Po soup, they will not remember anything, and they will enter the reincarnation in a daze, which is a vague death, a confused life, That's what life is all about.

We walked westward with the paperwork, until we arrived at a city at night, the city was catching up with the ghost market, people coming and going, bustling, these people wore all kinds of clothes, many of them wore singing clothes, and it was very lively to buy and sell. The boy led me to a large yamen, where many people were bound with iron chains, and on either side stood the portmen like wolves and tigers.

Before I could see what was going on, the kid suddenly pushed me to the doorman's body, and then he got into a big disaster, and the doorman tied me up strongly, and then pushed and shoved me to a place, which looked like a public court, and a man in singing clothes came, and the doorman showed me the paperwork, and the man looked at it a few times, and then asked people to put an iron chain around my neck and escort me to the underworld.

That road was so desolate, and I realized in my heart that I had been pitted by that child, what kind of meat was this? But by this time it was too late. I cried so loudly, and the man who was holding me with a rope beat me desperately, and I remembered that we were holding the ox, and the ox was beaten like this when it didn't leave. When I was lonely and helpless, someone in the back said, "Stop, stop." ”

I looked behind me and couldn't help but be overjoyed, it was none other than Zhang Daoye, Zhang Daoye was wearing a Taoist robe and carrying a sword on his back, just like an immortal. Zhang Daoye came to the front, whispered to the yin cha who held me, and kept stuffing things into the yin cha's hand, Yin Cha nodded again and again, and in the end, took off my iron chains from his body, and said to me: "You child, you don't know if you were killed, hurry up and follow Daoye back." ”

I looked at Zhang Daoye in a daze and asked Zhang Daoye what was going on, Zhang Daoye said, "I don't have time, I'll talk about it when I go back." ”

Talking, holding my hand, let me close my eyes, after I closed my eyes, I heard the whining wind, and when I opened my eyes, I had arrived at the door of the house, after arriving home, Zhang Daoye led me to the house, I went to the house to see dumbfounded, because I saw another one in the house I soaked in the vat, only my head was outside, and I was still shouting there, at this time Zhang Daoye came over and said: "Ma Xiaoer, you don't come out quickly, your yang life is over, these are all destined, you should have reported to the underworld, Now that you have borrowed people to return your soul, are you not afraid of the Yin Law? ”

In the water tank, I said, "I don't want to die, I don't deserve to die, and since I'm up, I'm not going to leave easily." ”

Zhang Daoye said: "I didn't expect you to repent now, I'm going to do the right thing for heaven." ”

As he spoke, I saw Zhang Daoye's right hand writing a few words on his left hand, and then he blew a breath and read: "Five thunder messengers, mighty spirits, thunderbolts in the sky, teams are like clouds, quickly catch demons, hunt down evil spirits, and I serve the Arctic Emperor." ”

Then I pressed the door of the "I" head in the cylinder with my hand, and blew a breath towards "me", then suddenly a person flew out of the tank and fell to the ground all of a sudden, I looked at the person, it was no one else, it was the child who lied to me, at this time the child got up on the ground, and kept kowtowing to Zhang Daoye, Zhang Daoye said: "As a ghost, you should have re-entered reincarnation, but you borrowed people to return the soul, violated the yin law, and should have been severely punished, but God has the virtue of a good life, I will send you to the City God Temple, let you re-enter the reincarnation." ”

The child hurriedly kowtowed to thank him, and I watched from the side, when Zhang Daoye said, "It's bad, come over boldly." ”

I heard that I hurriedly ran over, wanted to ask what was going on, but I didn't expect to be pushed into the vat by Zhang Daoye, I opened my mouth to shout out, but a mouthful of water choked into my mouth, only then I found that I was still in the tank, quickly emerged from the water, and found that Zhang Daoye and the child in front of me were gone, I found myself in the tank at this time, there were a lot of herbs in it, I climbed out of the tank, just about to go out, then my mother came in, I happily called Niang, my mother happily said: "Bold you know my mother?" ”

I said suspiciously, "Mother, how could I not know you?" What happened? ”

My mother said, "Don't you remember?" ”

I nodded, and my mother said, "Didn't you have a fever yesterday?" ”

I said, "What happened to yesterday when I had a fever?" ”

"Yes" my mother continued: "You burned too badly, and I fainted directly, I was frightened, I didn't know what to do, but fortunately, your heart was still pounding, and your forehead was hot, until the evening, I slowly woke up, but after waking up, my eyes were red, and I began to talk nonsense, saying that my name was Ma Xiaoer, and I was a person from Wangjiazhuang." Later, your father and I found out that something was wrong, so we went to invite Zhang Daoye, and when Zhang Daoye saw it, he let us go out and told us that your condition was very critical, not only was you poisoned by the corpse, but also occupied by a ghost. We begged Zhang Daoye to save you, and Zhang Daoye told us not to be quiet, he came to find a way to get your soul back. Then Zhang Daoye brought glutinous rice from the Taoist temple, let us find a big vat, put the glutinous rice in the jar, and then give you some white powder, and he went back to the Taoist temple to go to the yin.

I said, "No wonder, I almost ended up in the underworld this time." ”

My father came over and asked me what was going on, I told me what happened, my father and my mother were in a cold sweat when they heard it, thank God there, at this time Zhang Daoye walked in, my father and my mother quickly asked me to kneel down and kowtow, after I listened, I knelt down and kowtowed to Zhang Daochang, Zhang Daochang helped me up and said: "No, no, I will give you a protective baby, and you will not encounter these things in the future." ”

As he spoke, he handed me a peach wood talisman, the peach wood talisman was engraved with words, but I didn't know it, I happily put that thing on my body, the illness came quickly, and it went quickly, Zhang Daoye was really amazing, my illness was cured soon.
