Chapter Forty-Three: A Row of Guman
The next morning, after the morning class, when I was ready to eat, Master said that he and my wife had decided to stay in China for the rest of their lives and wanted to go to Thailand.
More than 20 years ago, Uncle Shi worshiped under the sect of Shizu, and at that time the Master had already learned something, so under the joint guidance of Shizu and Master, Uncle Shi quickly got started and learned some basic ghost and god techniques. Helplessly, Uncle Shi's heart was not right, and he was discovered by the master by using the ghost to make profits, when the master was young, his blood was strong, and there was no room for sand in his eyes, he reported the situation to the master and ancestor as usual, and the uncle was expelled from the master in this way, and then he went to Thailand and started a business of reselling clothes.
Uncle Shi has always been very grateful to Master, even if Master denounced him. After that time, Uncle Shi did not continue to learn the Tao, but began to start a business, and over the years, he heard that it had also been prosperous, and he often called Master to say hello during the New Year's holidays. In his opinion, learning the Tao is too poor, this money can't be earned, and that money can't be taken, so it's better to do business and make more money and live a rich life. But for the master, he has always been obsessed with that incident, and he feels guilty about his uncle deep down.
This uncle and the master are very close to each other, and the relationship between the two brothers has always been very good. Now that the master is about to feather, he also wants to take this opportunity to visit his uncle, but he has one of his wishes.
Master told us that he wanted to go to Thailand, and my sister and I naturally raised our hands in agreement. It's just that we all need to apply for visas, and it will take a week at the earliest, so we can't leave immediately. My sister was rich, she used a lot of connections, went through the back door, and finally it only took three days to get all the visas.
During these three days, Master accompanied us to practice in the ancestral hall, and he always took the initiative to tell us some about the essence of Taoism. He seems to want to pass on what he has learned in life. In those days, we learned very profound things, but with Master always by our side, we could get answers to anything we didn't understand immediately. This kind of treatment has made our comprehension of Taoism to another level.
Every night, I don't forget to give Tie Dan a bad feeling, Senior Sister seems to like this little guy more and more, and has to come over every night to tease it, Iron Dan has become more and more humane, and sometimes I will chase and play with Senior Sister. Because of their playfulness, Tie Dan was still discovered by the master. However, he didn't resist the imp at all, and he said that he would already know when I came back with the iron egg.
Master also took the initiative to tell me to go to Thailand this time to bring it with me, if the curse is suddenly broken, this little ghost will return to Song Fugui, and if I go back, it will not be as simple as torture, it is very likely that Song Fugui will die.
Master's suggestion made me and my sister very happy.
When it was time to leave, Master led us to do a farewell ceremony in the ancestral hall. He wrapped all the spiritual positions of the ancestors in red cloth and put them in the drawer inside the large offering table. Master said that he had no intention of coming back when he went out this time. His meaning is very simple, he wants to spend March 3 in Thailand.
Uncle Shi lives in Chiang Mai, and we didn't go directly, but went to Bangkok first. I don't have much of a feeling about Bangkok, it's full of people and cars and people from all over the world. The reason why I came here first was because Master wanted to see the exotic scenery of Thailand.
We stayed in Bangkok for four days, and Master went out every night and didn't come back until almost early in the morning, and refused to follow us. He wandered around with his wife, he didn't know English, let alone Thai. It's very inconvenient to move, so my sister and I sneak behind them every time to prevent any accidents.
Master can see Master, but other people can't, Master walks down the street and turns his head from time to time to talk to the air around him, this situation seems weird, but in a place like Thailand, which is full of little ghosts, Kuman Thong and Buddha cards, it is not strange. During this period, he also found a Chinese and took him to a local secret place where Kuman Tong was refined. I don't know how he found that person, and I don't know what he went to do in that kind of place.
Master seemed to be having a good time, and his face was red after a few days.
Four days later, we went to Chiang Mai, and when we arrived that evening, Uncle Shi came to pick him up, and Uncle Shi looked much younger than Master, and he had the same inch of hair as Master. It's just that he doesn't seem to be in good spirits, and I even wonder if he is haunted by a ghost.
When Master and Uncle met, both of them were stunned for a long time, looked at each other, and finally came to a big hug, which had not been seen for so many years, a hug interpreted all the previous grievances and hatreds, and the two seemed to have found the original feeling.
After getting into the car, my sister and I sat in the back, and Master sat in the front, and exchanged a few more pleasantries. Master suddenly said, "How long has that thing been pestering you?"
As soon as Master said this, I completely understood, and it turned out that I was not mistaken. Uncle Shi was indeed haunted by ghosts, and I vaguely felt that the main purpose of Master coming to Thailand was to help Uncle Shi solve trouble.
When Uncle Shi heard Master's inquiry, he smiled awkwardly: "Senior brother, you are still such a god, I have been divined by you in Thailand."
The master did not answer him, but continued, "You kid, if I come a month late, I guess we will meet below. After all these years, why are you still obsessed?"
Uncle Shi didn't speak, just drove the car with his head bored, and after a while he said, "Senior brother, you don't need to trouble this time, I want to solve it myself." ”
"You solve a fart, you know what I said on the hexagram I gave you to say that you have a catastrophe, a catastrophe of uncertain life and death. Do you really think you can solve it?" the master scolded.
Uncle Shi didn't dare to speak anymore.
The senior sister persuaded and said, "Master, let's go home first." ”
The master snorted coldly and never spoke again.
My uncle's home is a small two-story building, which is common in Chiang Mai. But Uncle Shi's house is very luxuriously decorated, and it has a feeling of standing out from the crowd compared to the surrounding houses. However, as soon as I entered the room, I was still a little dumbfounded, there was a long offering table on the left side of the living room of Uncle Shi's house, and there were more than a dozen large and small Kuman Tong on the offering table.
Some of those Kuman children were dolls with golden lacquer on the surface, some were large transparent jars containing a pair of spectacles, blackened and dried baby bones, and some were dried corpse-like fetuses that had not yet fully developed, the big ones were thirty-four centimeters tall, and the small ones were about ten centimeters tall. In front of each Kuman Thong is an incense burner and a bowl. Lined up there, it looks very crazy.
After entering the door, Uncle Shi told us to do it first, he went to make tea, and Master said: "Still sitting a ghost, what are you doing, put so many ghosts at home If you need a ghost to help you in your business, you can just invite one, do you want to play yourself to death if you invite so much?"
Uncle Shi hurriedly explained: "No, senior brother, I only invited one before, but I didn't expect to be cheated by someone here, that little ghost was discarded by others, and he was already very angry." It didn't take long for me to start backlashing, and the Azan ghost seller in the back said that my own sins were too heavy, and told me to overtake some abandoned imps to atone for my sins. But I didn't expect these little ghosts to be the same as the previous one. They were all forcibly cut off and then sent to me. ”
"Are you so stupid, where did all the things you learned before," the master scolded with a cold face.
Uncle Shi said: "I didn't learn anything, I have forgotten it after so many years, and the little ghost here is different from the little ghost over there, the little ghost is very ordinary here, many people are offering, and I haven't seen anything big." ”
"You have been fooling around for so many years, they obviously bullied you as an outsider, and you were calculated and thought that others were helping you." The master put down these words, walked over to the row of Kuman Tong, bent down and looked at them one by one.
"Ugh." The master sighed and continued, "There are several people who need to refine to solve it personally, can you find any of them?"
Uncle Shi said: "I can find it, but I have fallen out with them now, and they don't pay attention to me at all." ”
"How much do you have a daily supply now," Master asked, picking up the knife on the long offering table.
Uncle Shi rubbed his fingers and said, "Once a day, two drops each." ”
I was shocked, and counted carefully, there are as many as thirteen Kuman Tong here, and there are twenty-six drops of blood every day, no wonder his face is so bad, and this has nothing to do with anemia.
"It shouldn't be less than twenty days," Master continued.
Uncle Shi nodded and said, "A little more than half a month." ”
The master snorted, grabbed one of the golden doll-shaped Kuman Tong, weighed it twice in his hand, raised his hand and smashed it to the ground.
The second watch is sent, and the third watch is at six o'clock.
