"Well, remember, you said that you are not a real Taoist priest, you can only use some simple earth methods, and if you really encounter a ghost, you are helpless." I replied truthfully, the first time I came to see Master Wang, he did say so.

Master Wang nodded, squinted at the ceiling, and began to slowly recall......

In 1978, when the fourth land reform was not carried out, Master Wang was only in his twenties, and in that era when no one was rich, no one could be lazy if he wanted to fill his stomach. Because at that time, the countryside was still under collective ownership. To get a share of the food. It is necessary to work every day and work to earn food and clothing.

At that time, Master Wang was hardworking and willing to work, and he was the captain of a labor team, and the rice yield at that time was low and the population in the village was large, so Master Wang spontaneously led everyone to reclaim wasteland.

Master Wang's current house is located where there was originally a land temple, and some places are called Chenghuang Temple, and Master Wang, who was affected by the four old ones, had a deep concept, and the first stop of reclaiming the wasteland was to demolish the land temple and turn it into cultivated land. But the people in the team disagreed, although they didn't dare to talk about ghosts, but most of the people in the countryside had heard or had been exposed to some things in this area.

So many people opposed the demolition of the land temple, but even so, Master Wang led three other unbelievers to use hoes and shovels to spend several days bulldozing the land temple.

The land temple has existed for a long time, and no one knows when it was built, and on the night when Master Wang and the four of them finished demolishing the land temple and digging up the foundation of the land temple, something strange happened, and it was a very terrifying thing.

All four of them were suffering from sleepwalking at the same time that night, and even though their respective families were not aware of it. Without realizing it, the four of them came to the Earth Temple that they had demolished, and knelt down and kowtowed in the direction of the Land Temple at the same time, and knocked three of them to death.

When I heard this, I knew that things were not so simple, and I asked Master Wang: "How can you kowtow and still knock people to death?"

Master Wang nodded and said, "Because we all kowtow in front of sharp stones, and we use a lot of strength. ”

"Are you saying that the other three are dead, and you are the only one left, so how did you survive" I continued to ask, I didn't have the slightest doubt about what Master Wang said, and no one would joke about this kind of thing.

Master Wang brushed the hair in front of its forehead with his hand, leaking a looming scar and said, "I also knocked, but I didn't die, because I was the youngest, and that Taoist priest saved me, in fact, that Taoist priest is also my master." ”

"Is that Taoist senior the Taoist senior the Taoist senior who gave you guidance, but what does this have to do with your youth?"

Master Wang pursed his lips and asked me to pour him another bowl of water, and he drank the water before continuing to talk about it.

That night the four of them arrived almost at the same time in front of the temple of the earth, which had been bulldozed, and each of them found a place with a sharp stone to kneel, and at the same time slammed down on the sharp stone, and he woke up after a knock, because an old Taoist priest woke him up.

The old Taoist priest was also an old man in the village, and he was the one who strongly opposed Master Wang's reclamation of the land temple at the beginning. But Master Wang couldn't listen at all, not only did he not listen, but he also reprimanded the old Taoist.

After the old Taoist priest woke up Master Wang, Master Wang regained consciousness. But even if he regained consciousness, it would be of no avail, for his sudden attack had made him almost faint, and he could not even get up. I could only watch the other three people go on and over again until they hit the front of the sharp corner stone.

And after the old Taoist priest woke him up, he fought with an evil ghost, and one person and one ghost fought farther and farther, and finally got out of his sight. Master Wang lasted for a few minutes, and then fainted in place.

When Master Wang woke up the next day, it was already noon, and the people around him told him that the other three people were all dead, and he regretted it a lot, he knew that the death of the other three people was caused by his own insistence on touching the land temple, not only he knew, but the whole village knew that it was because of the land temple. But no one dared to say anything about it, because it involved superstition, and if it was rumored about it, they would be arrested and detained.

So the death of these three people naturally became a headless case, and Master Wang, as the "master", did not receive any punishment, but Master Wang himself knew in his heart that the death of these three people was directly related to him, and he also knew that the reason why he dragged on was because the old Taoist priest saved him.

That afternoon, he found the old Taoist priest, because when they were planning to reclaim the land, the old Taoist priest told him privately that the land temple could not be cultivated, because there was a very powerful evil ghost suppressed under it.

He was young and vigorous at the time, and he hated that evil ghost in his heart, and the deceased was gone, all he could do was to avenge the three brothers, and the only one who could help him was the old Taoist.

After finding the old Taoist, he realized that revenge was not easy, and the old Taoist himself was also very distressed about it, not to mention getting rid of that evil ghost, even if it was not easy to suppress it again. He also told him that if the demon was not suppressed within seven days, the whole village would suffer.

Master Wang asked what the origin of the evil ghost was, but the old Taoist priest refused to say, and only gave a way to suppress the evil ghost again.

Because the previous suppression formation was destroyed by them, it would be useless to build another land temple. The old Taoist priest rearranged a set of suppression formations there, and the level of the old Taoist priest was much worse than the level of those predecessors before, and his suppression formation alone was not enough to suppress that evil ghost, so he still needed a lot of assistance.

With the efforts of the whole village, a house was built there within three days, which is the one where Master Wang lives now. The reason why the house is not a land temple is because someone needs to live in this house to take care of the suppression formation. The formation of the old Taoist priest is extremely ingenious, and I don't understand the mystery, because the maintenance of the formation is only based on an everlasting lamp.

The ever-bright lamp here refers to the kerosene lamp that cannot be extinguished, this lamp is specially made, and it can burn for twelve hours after being filled with kerosene, which is why Master Wang never goes far away, because he has to take care of the ever-bright lamp that is not extinguished.

In addition, this formation also needs four yin spirits to make a formation to activate, and only after the formation is fully activated can these four yin spirits go to the underworld, and these four yin spirits must have something to do with that evil ghost. And the people who have something to do with that evil ghost, in addition to the four Master Wang who bulldozed the land temple, there is also an old Taoist priest who has fought with the evil ghost. That is to say, among the two people alive, the old Taoist priest must also die, and only in this way can he gather the four Yin Spirits to make a formation. Because this formation would last for forty years before the evil ghost could fly away, and the old Taoist priest was nearly seventy years old at the time, and he would not live for forty years

The task of taking care of the ever-bright lantern undoubtedly fell to Master Wang, so Master Wang could not marry a wife and have children in this life, so he could only be a lonely lantern keeper for a lifetime.

When this decision was made, it was also forced to do so, when building this house, the old Taoist priest also found two fellow masters to work together to try to directly disperse this evil ghost, but in the end it was unsuccessful.

From the first day that Master Wang found the old Taoist, the old Taoist accepted Master Wang as an apprentice, and he taught Master Wang some very simple and easy-to-understand Taoism in six days, and taught Master Wang how to start the formation, and then at noon on the seventh day, the old Taoist committed suicide by drinking pesticides.

The start of the formation was on the night of the seven souls of the three people who died because of kowtowing, that is, the night when the old Taoist priest committed suicide, and after his soul was stripped out, Master Wang used the formation prepared by the old Taoist priest in advance to summon the souls of the three people and trapped them in the designed position, and at twelve o'clock in the evening of the same day, Master Wang used these four souls to open the formation to suppress evil ghosts.

The whole thing, the only thing that makes people feel fortunate is that this formation to suppress the evil ghost will continue to cause damage to that evil ghost, and as time passes, the soul of this evil ghost will slowly be eroded by the formation, and its ability will become weaker and weaker.

Since the lighting of the lantern, Master Wang has been here for 30 years, and in these 30 years, Master Wang has been cautious for fear of accidents, never directly touching the ghosts, and living on paper people, never daring to go far. So I didn't let the ever-bright light go out once, but just two days ago, the ever-bright light went out because of an incident.

And this matter has a lot to do with me......

Twelve o'clock. It's cold, so keep warm
