Chapter 044: The Snake Enters the Fire
I'm still too young and inexperienced! If the old man were replaced, he would definitely make the rest of the people do more.
In general, at this time, the more you ask him to do more, the happier he will be. If I could say a few words of good luck and peace to them, they would be even more happy.
"Don't make any noise, I'm just telling you to stop worshipping. I didn't let you go, there are more important things for you to do! I deliberately lowered my face to them.
Sure enough, when they heard my words, they immediately stopped talking, and looked at me apologetically, and stood with their hands tied.
"Really, don't you see? These snakes have fallen from the coffin, and it is useless for you to worship any more, what else to worship! Now the most important thing is to dispose of these snakes! This step is the most important thing. The key is that as long as you survive this step, all of you and those who have just left will have a safe home and everything will go well! I said to them with a serious face.
When they heard my words, a look of joy suddenly appeared on their faces. And there was some pride in the joy on their faces.
Ay...... O human heart! is the hardest to guess.
Some people say that we are gods, but in fact, I don't dislike this title. Because in our line of work, we really can't say anything a lot of the time. And in some cases, you can't tell the truth to the victim at all.
In the words of the old man, in our line of work, we can not tell the truth, but we cannot tell lies.
I've always thought the old man's words were nonsense. If you don't tell the truth, you're telling a lie!?
At this time, I seem to understand the truth contained in this sentence. The key to this sentence is "not to say" and "to say".
The truth can be said without being spoken, and the lie cannot be spoken.
Hehe, when I think about it at this time, my old man is still a little level!
"O Master! So what are we going to do now? A middle-aged woman came up to me and asked with a flattering face.
"None of you have three sticks of incense to light it, go to that position and stand, don't move!" I casually pointed to a spot and said to them.
When these people heard my words, they immediately rushed to grab the three sticks of incense and light them, and ran to the spot I pointed out.
"No, move three more steps to the left!" I shouted to the first person to run over there.
In fact, these people can go back completely! There's nothing left for them. Where I am pointing, it doesn't make sense whether they stand or not.
I just made a random gesture, and then I'm going to add this sentence now, and tell them to move three steps to the left. In this way, it seems even more troublesome.
Ay...... I have seen too many of these so-called filial sons.
When the old man was alive, no one would support him if you withdrew from me. When the old man passed away, everyone looked grief-stricken, and they did a lot of white things, saying that they would bury the old man in a beautiful manner.
When they were doing white things, they were all extremely pious, because they all hoped that the spirit of the deceased in heaven would bless them with great wealth and wealth, and preferably bless him to buy a lottery ticket and win a grand prize.
These people don't want to think that when your parents were alive, they were not happy with you, so why bother after you died.
In fact, they don't know that it is better to honor their parents than to respect the Bodhisattva. Parents are living bodhisattvas in the world.
The lamb kneels and the raven feeds back.
The way of filial piety is a particularly important part of the way of heaven. Above this path, it is easiest to obtain Yin Virtue points.
It is easier to obtain Yin virtue points than to build bridges and pave roads, build temples and towers, sacrifice oneself to save others, and so on.
I saw them standing there motionless with incense in their hands, and sighed in their hearts.
Their piety is only for the sake of psychological comfort. If they are really that religious, after all these years, why don't they come to pay their respects.
Of course, most of their appearance is made for the living, hoping that others will see how filial they are.
This reminds me of another phrase that the old man often said.
"A good old man, a good happy event, a good son, a good funeral!"
That is to say, Lao Tzu has the ability, and his son's happy event can be described as a big operation, what luxury car to welcome the family, how long and how long is it, and how luxurious the wedding banquet is.
And the son has the ability, the old man passed away, and the pomp and circumstance of the funeral should be as grand as it was, and the crying before the mourning hall could continue twenty-four hours a day, even if those who wept were invited for money. The funeral convoy was as long as it could, so that the old man seemed to be able to walk beautifully.
However, all this is done for the living.
"Others, help! Set up the firewood pile over there, and set it up in this position! I shouted to the other people who came to help.
Earth snakes, that is, coffin snakes, they are transformed by yin qi and resentment. Falling off the coffin and no longer entangled in the coffin proves that the yin and resentment in their bodies have been dispersed.
When the yin qi and resentment are dispersed, they will not live long.
So, they had to be burned.
Of course, you can't just throw these snakes into it and burn them after setting up a firewood pile.
They had to be allowed to climb into the fire on their own.
With the help of everyone, the firewood pile was quickly set up. They also poured prepared gasoline on it.
Seeing that they were ready, I took out the incense candles and walked over, lit them in front of the firewood, and then laid the talismans on top of the firewood.
After letting go, I took out another talisman and shook it on top of the burning candle, and then lit the talisman.
The talisman ignited, and I immediately shook the talisman in my hand and shot it towards the firewood.
"Boom !!"
Gasoline was poured on the firewood, so it ignited as soon as it caught sparks.
The fire ignited, and in the blink of an eye, the talisman on it was also burned.
"Come here, throw the incense in your hands into the firewood, one by one! Hurry up! I shouted to those who were standing aside with incense.
When those men heard this, they rushed to the fire.
Looking at these people who looked like carp crossing the river, I shook my head, and then yelled at them: "Don't crowd, line up one by one!" At this time, whoever wants to squeeze who will have an accident! ”
Hearing my words, they didn't dare to squeeze any more and hurried to line up. But when I was in line, I was still crowded, hoping that I could move forward.
"Alright, throw! After throwing it, immediately turn around and walk back without looking back! I whispered to the guy at the top of the line.
The first in line was the middle-aged woman who came to me to ask me before.
She walked to the fire, held the incense in both hands, and bowed reverently before throwing the incense into the fire.
Looking at her appearance, I shook my head helplessly.
"It's moving! It's moving! ”
"Hurry up, those snakes are moving!"
"They're crawling towards the fire!"
"Oh my God, they're not going to just crawl into the fire on their own, are they?"
"Really, uh! Look, crawl over! Crawl over!! ”
……
After the first middle-aged woman threw the incense into the fire, the snake over there began to crawl and crawled towards the fire.
The middle-aged woman, who had already turned away, also heard these words from the person next to her, and she hurried away, but I could see that her heart seemed to be very happy, for I saw that her steps were obviously much lighter.
In fact, these snakes crawling into the fire have nothing to do with whether she throws incense or not. Even if she didn't throw incense, the snakes would crawl into the fire.
Because I'm ready for everything. Those talismans had already opened the way of reincarnation for them, and they had not lived long in the first place, so they naturally returned to the fire.
In fact, I personally have an explanation for this situation.
That is, this earth snake has no eyes! It is completely dependent on the perception of everything around it, especially the perception of heat.
The fire was burning, and like moths to the fire, they would go to the fire.
Moths fight fires because of the phototaxis of moths. The serpent entered the fire on its own, and that was because of its thermotropism.
Therefore, everything in the world has a way.
Of course, if I hadn't prepared a talisman to write on the fire, even if the Earth Serpent had a heat-tropism, they would only approach the fire and not enter it.
"You go on!" I whispered to the man with the incense.
With the first woman taking the lead, the people behind came up and followed her example, and after bowing, they threw the incense in their hands into the fire.
Seeing this, I had to say to them, "Don't worship the fire, what's the use of you worshipping the fire!" The incense in your hands is the key! Hurry up and throw it! Hurry up! ”
I urged them because more and more snakes were crawling into the fire. Seeing that all the human serpents are about to enter the fire.
My concern is that all the people are in the fire, and those at the back of the line are psychologically unbalanced.
After hearing my words, they threw incense much faster!
When they had all thrown the incense into the fire, all the snakes had climbed into the fire.
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
Inside the fire, I don't know if the dry wood was burned or the snake was burned, but there was a crackling sound.
This is the second time I've dealt with fire recently.
But this time the fire is different from the last time you burned those corpse insects, this time you don't need to burn all the time, just wait for this fire to burn out.
"Oh my God, this is the first time I've seen a snake crawl into the fire by itself without fear of death!"
"Isn't it?"
"I'll tell you! This is the master's mana profoundness. You don't want to think, would you like to let yourself into the fire? ”
"That's it! It is! It was the master who used his mana to drive those snakes into the fire! ”
"That's right! Right! I just saw it! With a wave of everyone's hands, the snakes entered! ”
……
The more the villagers on the side talked, the more mysterious it became, and I couldn't remember when I waved my hand.
