Case 9: Water ghost (thanks to Zhengyi Pai Shunyun)

Many friends think that our cultivators must be very windy, and the yin must be frightened when they see us, and they dare not get close, which is a certain truth, but as the saying goes, "When people walk by the river, how can they not get their shoes wet", so I "wet my shoes" once.

It happened in the summer of my first year of cultivation with Master, and I went with Master and my uncles to a place called Huangjing to practice things (white things), and my friends who knew Yujing should know that Yujing is a very remote town.

The conditions of the owner's house are not very good, and there is no even the most basic bathroom, even if it is a small solution, it has to run a long way to have a toilet.

This time it was not an old man who died, but a young girl who had just turned 20 years old.

Most of the old houses in the countryside have main halls, and I followed my master and uncle into the main hall, the main hall is not very big, there is a coffin inside, and there are pictures of dead girls, judging from the photos, it is still a very beautiful girl.

I looked at the delicate head on the photo, and suddenly shivered, and the cold hairs on my whole body stood up.

After choosing an hour, we began to raise the altar to practice excess.

When we were doing the deed, the mother of the deceased cried to death, cried softly and fell to the ground and howled: "My poor daughter, you died so miserably, when you died, you still let so many things tie you up, life, mother has no ability to make you happy, died, and died so painfully, my poor daughter, why are you so miserable.......

Hearing the mother's crying and wailing, my mind was in chaos, my whole body was hairy, my heart was very suffocated, I always felt that something was wrong, and I almost made a mistake several times, and I was stared at by the master a few times.

In the evening, after we finished the rituals, we went into a simple room to rest under the arrangement of our families, and because we were very tired, the master and uncle quickly fell asleep, and I always remembered the heart-rending wails of the dead little girl's mother, and there was an inexplicable desolation in my heart.

I don't know how long I stayed up, but I fell asleep in a daze and soon fell asleep.

In my dream, I was actually standing by the sea.

As far as the eye can see, the waves are crashing, and the waves are rushing.

I was amazed when suddenly a girl grabbed my ankle from the shore and tried desperately to climb up, her frightened face was almost completely deformed, her eyes were staring at me, and she was shouting something, but the sound was completely muffled by the waves, and I couldn't hear it clearly.

I was about to pull her by the way, when suddenly several snake-like kelps stretched out from under her arms and pulled her back underwater.

After waking up, I couldn't sleep anymore, leaning on the head of the bed and thinking of the painful wail of the deceased's mother, life can not be happy, death can not be stable, my heart is furious, is it the dead who is dreaming to me?

At that time, I had just entered the industry, although I had learned some Taoist techniques, but after all, I was still young, and I also felt chills when I thought of the terrifying face of the girl in my dream.

I remembered that the latrine was two hundred meters away, and I had to pass through the downstairs hall, and I was a little scared when I remembered the photo of the girl in front of the coffin. (Don't be surprised, I just started in the industry and saw less things)

This urine is more and more urgent, I can't call the master to accompany me, then I have to be trained to death by him, and the master doesn't dare to shout, so I pushed my nearest senior brother.

My brother slept soundly, and I didn't know if he was too tired during the day to wake up no matter how he did, I was helpless, but the inner urgency quickly overcame the fear, and I decided to go downstairs alone to the toilet two hundred meters away.

I put on my clothes and rushed downstairs, not daring to look at the photo of the deceased hanging in front of the coffin, and ran straight to the latrine.

In order to be brave, I also deliberately hummed a song (young man!). Looking at the night sky, the night is nice, the stars and the moon, everything is quite beautiful.

When I walked back, there was a sudden cloudy wind, I had already entered the industry at that time, and I had seen something, this wind was cold and suffocating, and it was not a good thing to have a cloudy wind on the ground.

I hurried back to the hall and was stunned by what I saw.

The body of the deceased girl was lying straight at the bottom of the stairs, and she was still in the coffin before going downstairs......

I was so scared that I almost screamed, I had never encountered anything so weird, and I would have screamed if it weren't for the thought of who I was.

I froze, all kinds of terrifying pictures appeared in my mind, and I kept comforting myself in my heart, nothing, nothing, I am a disciple of the Daomen, it is impossible for a yin thing to dare to haunt me.

Under the pressure of fear, I slowly leaned towards the female corpse, not because I was bold, but because she blocked the way up the stairs.

When I approached the girl's corpse, the yin qi stabbed my legs numb, and I muttered how could this be, how could this girl be so angry? I couldn't imagine what would happen next, so I rushed upstairs like crazy and jumped over the corpse, covered the quilt, and stayed up until dawn.

Nothing happened the next day, the coffin was fine, and I wondered if what I saw last night was dazzled or that it had been just my dream.

After the rituals were done, we packed up the ritual utensils and drove home.

On the way, I told my brother about the dream I had the night before, and my brother smiled and said, "Shunyun, don't think so much, you just did our business, and it's normal to be a little afraid to dream, not to mention that you didn't dream the same dream again the next day, so it won't be a sign." ”

I listened to my brother's words and was slightly relieved, after all, my brother entered the industry earlier than me, and he has been following my uncle for several years.

It was drizzling, the car drove very slowly, and I quickly fell asleep in the car after staggering.

When he was asleep, he suddenly heard his senior brother shouting, stopped the car, and shouted in a panic: "Shunyun, look, that's ..... What the hell is going on! ”

I was dazed and muttered impatiently, "What a fuss, I just fell asleep, and I ...... in the middle of the night" Before I could say the next words, I covered my mouth.

I shivered violently, and a girl in a blue dress had snake-like things hanging from her body, making her look as if she was being entangled by countless snakes, which was indescribably weird.

I rolled down the window, and it was only less than two meters away, I couldn't see her face clearly, and I quickly understood that I was seeing something dirty.

At this moment, my master and uncle's car caught up, and my master rolled down the window and yelled at me: "Look at it, I want to die, go!" ”

My brother and I suddenly woke up from this drink, and my brother slammed on the accelerator to the end, and the car roared and rushed over.

When I returned to Takahashi and entered the house, I carefully asked Master, "Master, did we see that just now?" (Note: There are many spirits, but ghosts are rare)

The master said with a calm face, "It's okay, forget it!" ”

I told the master that I had a dream that night, but the master didn't speak, and beckoned me to go back to my house to rest first, and I was about to leave, when the uncle scolded me next door.

Uncle Shi was reprimanding my brother: "What's wrong with you today? Why are you still staring at that kind of thing when you encounter it, your junior brother just entered the industry, and he also wanted to kill him, he wanted to pull him down to be her companion together, right? ”

I chuckled inwardly, "Companion?" It seems that the matter is quite serious.

I habitually went home at 12 o'clock and then went back to Master's house to light incense and worship God, so after sleeping for a long time, I got up and prepared to go to Master's house to worship my ancestors.

My house was not far from Master's house, but that night it was only ten minutes away, and I drove for half an hour to get there, and I felt like I was repeating the road section all the time, like playing a movie, constantly rewinding, and along the way, there were always blurry black strips like kelp.

When I arrived at Master's house, I cleaned my hands and gave incense to Master Zu.

After the incense was served, my master gave me a talisman to eat, and I asked why? Master said I'll tell you after eating.

I looked at the talisman and said secretly, isn't this talisman made by Jiang Shang (Jiang Taigong) a god? I didn't think much about it, and quickly took the talisman.

After the master made sure that I had made a charm, he sighed and said, "The ghost of the girl we overtook this time was captured by the sea ghost as a stand-in, so she was full of anger, the dream you had that night, she was giving you a dream, asking you to find a stand-in, and it was the girl we saw when we came back, she must have thought that your senior brother was the stand-in you helped her find, so she was waiting for you not to move, if we hadn't arrived in time, your senior brother would have been killed by you." ”

When I heard this, goosebumps all over my body rose, but I didn't expect that this dream almost killed my senior brother.

"Master, why did you give me Jiang Shang's talisman of the gods?" I'm a little puzzled.

My master sighed and said, "That's because this girl has already followed you, and I see her as pitiful, she died a miserable death, and I don't want her to be punished below, so I gave you a magic rune!" ”

After speaking, the master took the five thunder cards and drew a talisman on my body, and suddenly I felt the chill gradually disappear, and the feeling of listlessness disappeared.

Afterword:

When this case was told to me, I, like many readers, might have such doubts, isn't it excessive? Why do female ghosts still appear around you after you have become mages? Is this Dharma exceedance or not?

Shunyun: It's not that if you succeed or not, it's that the woman must have a stand-in to be reincarnated. Our transcendence is to help him be relieved of his debts before death and the pain after death. Tell the gods that something like this has happened, which is our table. If you don't go over, you can only let the kelp hide, and you can't get rid of it.

Why do you have to find a stand-in when you are overdone? And not reincarnation?

Shunyun: Falling into the water and going missing (as well as unnatural deaths such as crushing death in coal mines and suicide by poisoning) are not the same as ordinary deaths.

Those who fall into the water are not called souls, but wounded souls, and must first cross the tribulation, and wait for the first seven to cross the womb. During the first seven years, it is possible for these wounded souls to come out to find a substitute, and the missing ones are called ghosts, that is, lonely souls, and they can't find a home, that is, they have souls but no body, so they must first cross the family and then reincarnate. Every deceased has a first seven, but like falling into the water, this must be exceeded, we call it a meridian, if you don't spend your whole life in the sea waiting for a stand-in, this is also a lot of accidents in the pool or seaside is prone to frequent drowning incidents.

Friendly reminder: Talk to strangers in the middle of the night, if you can't see your face clearly on the road, you should not see it, hurry up, don't provoke, don't scream, in case you startle "it" (friends, this tip is more mysterious, I don't know how to write it, but that's what the masters told me, I can't express it in words closest to real life!) In short, it's still the same sentence, a little more awe and respect for everything)
