Chapter 18: The Whereabouts of the Fu
Jian Jue really didn't plan to get involved in these things, he just felt that it was very bad to encounter these things as soon as he came here. He even proposed to pay homage: "Since there are so many Han people here, is there a temple?" It's a bit unpleasant to go and worship. ”
"Could it be that someone is using the Maoshan Forbidden Technique to set up a formation here?" Li Zhonglou didn't hear what Jian Jue was saying clearly, but he was more concerned about what the villagers said, but in such a small mountain village, what kind of people would use other people's ghost brides to get married to hit the red and white? This can't be done without certain means?
Jian Jue heard that Li Zhonglou was worried about this, and called him helplessly: "Brother Li, isn't it?" That's not part of our mission. Let me tell you, these days I have taken over the work, and I have traveled from south to north and far-sighted. What I'm talking about here is the degree of people's death, really, you make them have a correct mind, they just listen to the evil methods of the people in the rivers and lakes, and there are many things that cause their descendants to be harmful. I don't care when I see it. "What Jian Zhu means is that some people in this village want to use the formation to change their fortunes, but they are all responsible for the consequences, and they can't control it.
Li Zhonglou didn't think much about it, he explained to Jian Jie, "I have seen more of the phenomena you mentioned than you. Obviously, it is the custom here for ghost brides to get married, and that's fine. I'm worried that this village will run into some, like you said, Maoshan magicians with bad minds. On their dark web, except for orthodox Taoists, they all call them "sorcerers" and are unwilling to call them Taoists.
"Oh, yes." Jian Jue understood Li Zhonglou's worries, since there is a formation, then there must be people who know the formation here, and they are all in the dark, in the crowd, and they may even be watching here.
Jian decided to tell Qin Zitao to be cautious in his words and deeds, so he pretended to be a tourist or fooled into something else. Qin Zitao didn't know what he was calculating, he was just thirsty, and he understood and went to buy water by himself.
Then, Jian decided to inquire about the affairs of the village.
It is difficult for Sichuan people to understand Yunnan dialect, especially the accent of the villagers is not like that in Kunming, and the accent can be heard clearly if the accent is slower. Li Zhonglou was still wandering around the village, he seemed to have a somewhat obvious purpose, his brows were tightly locked, and he had been staring at the people in the village and thinking carefully.
Li Zhonglou's premonition affected Jian Du, and Jian Du began to recall the cults he had seen, and to be honest, these sects were densely distributed all over China, some of them were scattered, and some were slowly concentrating...... Jian Jue suddenly remembered the information in Yu Xingyang's computer.
He really didn't understand that... Will there be any connection? This hunch also made him not want to provoke other things today, and he was not even ready to tell Li Zhonglou.
Qin Zitao came back after buying water, and gave Li Zhonglou very politely, and simply decided to have a bottle of water for each person. He said: "The aunt of the commissary in the village is setting up a dragon gate array, and this year the mountain god married a wife, and a few people went into the mountain to carry the straw man. I don't know why I got lost, the old man had experience and asked a few lads to pee quickly. Anyway, carrying and carrying, the straw man became heavier, inexplicably heavier, as if carrying a real bride. But a straw man is still a straw man. The people in the village were a little scared and had to be sent into the cave. Unexpectedly, the next day, the tied straw man appeared at the head of the village, not complete, and his hands and feet were torn apart. ”
"The back is artificial, and the front is not clear." Jian Jue drank a few large sips of water, and the experience of the ghost detective made him decisively draw conclusions.
Li Zhonglou agreed with Jian Decision's words, "Many things are the cooperation of people and ghosts. ”
Qin Zitao drank half a bottle of water and said, "I know it too." But the people in the village said that because they had deceived the mountain god, the mountain god was angry. Eh, you know what? Qin Zitao smiled a little mischievously, "A bride died a few days ago. Someone in the village proposed to send a real person to the mountain god to change his luck, and he also asked someone to spread the law. He Nai was stopped by the man, and the bride still married according to the old custom. Isn't that what we encountered? ”
"So there are people," Jian Jue guessed, "that the mountain god has been deceived?" Ouch, Oxpie, let's go find the person who said this. ”
Every family in this village knows each other, and it is very much in line with the traditional patriarchal system. The village chief, the village party secretary, whose nephews are they, and whose nephews are they, have a big network. Jian Du can be seen by looking at the names outside the village committee, most of the names still have seniority, and they have the same surname.
However, on the list of subsidies for poor households, Li Zhonglou saw a familiar name. He was still unsure, so he took out a red notebook, all of which were names and photos, flipped through a few pages, and determined a name: Xu Ping. Li Zhonglou himself was also surprised, "Wouldn't it?" ”
He went in to inquire about the situation, and the staff said that the family had been unhappy, and the man in the family had died while doing business outside, and the village had unanimously decided that their family would be designated as a first-class difficult household.
Li Zhonglou asked for the address, and it was still at the foot of the mountain.
When they arrived, they only saw a very old two-story western-style building, but the bricks and tiles were falling off, and there was no richness at all.
Jian Jue was still curious and asked Li Zhonglou what was going on.
Li Zhonglou told them, "This family used to help Old Man Ran, and later heard that there was Old Man Ran's charm, and the family was rich in the nineties. It's strange that several sons in the family have developed overseas, so it stands to reason that it's more than that? ”
After all, when you go to the door, you still knock cautiously.
The door opened, it was a woman, and behind her was a curious and wary young man with a black face.
"Mom, which one?" The young man's tone was very bad.
"I don't recognize it."
Li Zhonglou hurriedly explained his intention and took out an old photo. And said apologetically: "Because the old man has been seriously ill, he has never come back again." ”
"Oh, Grandpa Ran, remember, he still lived in our house at that time." The woman still remembers that she said that her name was Xu Ju, and behind her was his son Zhang Junjie. Xu Ju invited them into the house, and when they came to the light, they could see that the woman looked much older than her actual age, and judging from the few black-and-white photos placed in the hall, her face was full of traces of a depressed life.
"How so? I remember going well for more than nine years. Li Zhonglou bowed slightly to the photo, at that time he happened to see the old man talking on the phone with the people of the Xu family at the Ran family, so he didn't expect that the old man Ran would be reduced to this point now.
Xu Ju said very plainly, "The doll's father originally worked as an oak factory in Xishuangbanna, but then he got sick and left inexplicably. Those uncles too, the ones who had car accidents, the debts who owed debts. I'll pour you water... Now it's just me and my mom, and the dolls. The doll went to work and her hands were damaged. ”
After pouring hot water, she casually mentioned, "It may be fate." The life of the doll grandfather's generation is good, and the life of our juniors is poor. ”
Zhang Junjie came over and asked her mother, "Is that the grandfather surnamed Ran?" His mother nodded, not intending to talk, but when she heard the old man in the back room humming uncomfortably, she left.
Instead, Zhang Junjie went to his bedroom to rummage for a while and took out a photo: "Do you know this talisman?" ”
Li Zhonglou was taken aback first, he took the photo, it was the talisman that Old Man Ran asked to return to the Yu family!
"You know this talisman?" Jian Jue was even more surprised, Qin Zitao, who was drinking water, just raised his eyes and didn't react.
"Before leaving, my grandfather said that he would take out this talisman and return it. It's a pity that we didn't listen, and then so many things happened, and I only found out by myself when I looked through my grandfather's previous things, but unfortunately, the whole family didn't know what this talisman was and where it was. Zhang Junjie's lost eyes were dim, and he couldn't see any hope.
"Where is your family's old tomb?" Li Zhonglou asked him.
"What tomb?" Zhang Junjie was confused.
"The tomb of the Xu family has been guarded for generations. That talisman is not used in the yang house, but in the yin house, so that talisman must be placed in the tomb. Your ancestors of the Xu family are extraordinary, and in modern times, it is a certain warlord in Yunnan who is famous. Therefore, Old Man Ran thinks that putting that talisman in your house can help you with the icing on the cake. After Li Zhonglou said this, Zhang Junjie was even more confused.
"Then why, grandpa said to take out the talisman before he died?" Zhang Junjie was asking himself.
Jian Jue began to take out his laptop again, looked up something, and asked them what the names of the previous warlords of the Xu family were. After the search, it turned out that he first followed Cai Yi to Yunnan, and then returned to the Beiyang warlords..... There's nothing wrong with it, it's in line with the times.
"But, that tomb, our family really doesn't know?"
"Don't worry," Li Zhonglou patted the young man on the shoulder, "We're here to get that talisman back." "Whether there is a problem with that talisman or not, taking it away may make Zhang Junjie feel at ease, and things will be smooth in the future. The fortune of a person in this life pays attention to a state of mind.
As for where the tomb is, Qin Zitao specializes in solving this kind of trouble. Qin Zitao himself said, "Since it is a big tomb and it is certain that it is a cliff tomb, it must be easier to find than those small tombs." After all, with a radius of dozens of miles, it would be good to be able to produce a larger tomb. ”
"I'm going with you!" Zhang Junjie stood up, he clenched his fists.
Jian Jue nodded, "As long as you find it, it should be quick to get a talisman, after all, you will have one more helper when you go." ”
Zhang Junjie is about the same age as Jian Jue, he went out to work in high school, studied carpentry for a few years, and originally worked in a root carving field, and gradually had hope. Who knows, an accident in the factory injured his hand. The factory lost a sum of money to him, and the boss was not a bad person, but he couldn't get out of the hurdle in his heart, and he always felt that something was arranging the fate of their family in the dark.
Zhang Junjie sighed, "You see Dai Cai in our village, he can't make a fortune, and he will also come back from Fujian this time to change the fortune of their family." As a result, the village did not respect the mountain god..... I think people should still be down-to-earth. ”
Jian Jue heard the key message: "Who?" ”
