Hung up the phone, and the next day Cao Nan and I told Huang Mao about the change, and the two agreed to let us go.

It is said that since the ancestors of the three families of Meng, Feng and Cao have guarded the tomb here for hundreds of generations, they will definitely lay out some things, but they would not have thought that there would be such a thing as a clock in later generations, which would lead to the redundancy of the watchman, and gradually the line of husband declined until it disappeared.

There must be a deep level of attention to the more.

Otherwise, there is no reason for the Cao family to fight for generations.

After getting their nods, Cao Nan and I finally stopped hesitating and immediately started to prepare, of course, mainly Cao Nan's preparation.

He has been taught by his grandmother since he was a child, and he knows everything clearly about what he needs and how to play a watch, and he is almost practical.

After it got dark at night, I realized what kind of play it was.

First of all, according to Cao Nan's grandmother, there have been two people since ancient times, fire prevention, theft and exorcism, one person is too easy to be attacked, and someone must take care of it.

And it is not the golden gong that tells the time, but the bamboo bon, which is a bamboo tube, and the gong mallet is knocked on it, and the sound of "tuk tuk" is not big, but it can be transmitted far away. The gong is used for alarming and exorcising ghosts, and is only struck before the time is struck and when there is a sudden event.

"The bamboo gong tells the time, and the golden gong rings auspicious", which means that the bamboo gong tells the time, and the golden gong keeps safe.

In addition, a burlap bag and a horse lantern are also needed, the horse lantern is used for lighting, and the cloth bag is used to put paper money, incense, and wax.

is more gentlemanly and elaborate than what is released in the TV series.

Winter nights always come very quickly, and it is already dark at six o'clock.

According to tradition, seven o'clock in the evening is the first watch, the township closes early, no one outside, the township is not peaceful recently, there are always some strange things at night, although there is no death, but also frightened a lot of people.

At seven o'clock in the evening, Cao Nan and I were ready to go out.

I walked in front with a horse lantern and a sackcloth bag, Cao Nan held a bamboo pole in his left hand, a golden gong hanging below, and a hammer in his right hand, striking the Luochang gong.

The so-called gong is struck before the time is struck, which plays a warning role.

"Boom!"

The golden gong sounded, and after a few breaths, Cao Nan knocked on the bamboo stick again, and sang again: "One watch, the cold wave is coming, close the door and window!" ”

The sound is still not loud, but the tail note is a bit long, and it is far away.

Playing the watch, telling the time and singing are not messy, and the sound and rhythm are very particular. First of all, it must be transmitted far and heard clearly, but it must not be too big, not to startle people and animals, but also according to the environment, when the wind is blowing and raining, the sound is different; Between the inches, you can see that the kung fu of a person who fights is not at home.

After walking about 100 steps, Cao Nan knocked on the bamboo stick again, and continued to sing: "On the first watch, close the doors and windows, and be careful of the candles!" ”

It's winter, the main reminder is to close the doors and windows, cold and frost protection, if it is a dry and high temperature summer, you should shout "dry weather, be careful of fire candles" and the like.

In short, close the doors and windows to prevent theft, be careful of fire candles and fire prevention, and the golden gong ringing gold to drive away ghosts.

Exorcism is also particular, if there is no accident, only when the change and the change are struck, that is to say, only two golden gongs are sounded when reporting a watch, and when they start and end respectively, only knock on the gong in the middle, and do not strike the gong.

Cao Nan explained to me that the essence of the golden gong to exorcise ghosts is in the word "exorcism", that is, the meaning of expelling, not to kill ghosts and kill ghosts, just drive away, there is no need to frighten ghosts.

It's a bit like drinking a thief, just cough lightly and let him stop, and scold at the thief's nose, the dog jumps over the wall in a hurry, the rabbit bites in a hurry, and it's easy to be ominous.

The two sides reached a tacit understanding, enough is enough, I won't surprise you, and you won't plot to kill me.

In the middle of the night, you have to be careful about everything, and the paper money and incense candles in the sack are also this exquisite, in case you encounter the evil ghosts and ghosts who are blackmailed and can't deal with them, you have to bribe.

There are also sacks with paper money and clothes on the body must also be worn out, preferably with patches, the subtext is that I am poor, no oil and water, if you want to steal, you have to rob someone else, don't look for me.

All of the above are the ways of survival of the watchmen, going out safely, going home safely, and putting their lives in for the sake of the official's family to eat, and they can't be counted.

Maybe some people here will say that they are afraid of this and that, and it is against professional ethics to be a monk who hits the clock for a day.

But for the ancients, the word professional ethics has not yet come out, playing is a way to make a living, just complete the task and brush a sense of existence, fire prevention is the people's business, anti-theft is the government's business, as for the exorcism, it is best to drive away, forget it if you can't drive it, there is no need to offend those wandering ghosts and wild ghosts, your own life is the most important.

……

The polder is not large, and the three streets roughly enclose a triangle, and it takes only a quarter of an hour to walk around.

Returning to the new house from the other direction, Cao Nan struck the gong with a "bang", and the one-day patrol was over.

Maybe it's because it's still early, and I haven't encountered anything strange.

One shift is two hours, and the next shift is at nine o'clock.

Huang Mao and Hu Lai hadn't slept yet, and when they saw us, they smiled and said, "Okay, there's a look!" ”

"Joke, it's an ancestral craft!" Cao Nan patted Yile.

I smiled, and suddenly appeared to play the watch, tomorrow I don't know what will happen in the township, and I am afraid that I will have to come forward to explain it when the time comes.

Master Hu is still a golden sign in the township, Cao Nan is tired of being with Hu Lai every day, and no one will say anything. And the saying of fighting more exorcism, the older generation knows that if someone beats the watch, they will be more at ease at night.

Two hours passed quickly, and at nine o'clock, we went out again.

This time it was the second watch, and after the gong was falling, there were two bamboo bangs.

I led the way with a lantern in front, looking left and right, paying attention to the surrounding environment, while Cao Nan looked forward almost all the time, not looking around.

This is also the rule, I carry a horse lantern for lighting, naturally I have to pay more attention to the surroundings, but it is not good to fight the watchman, because the watchman must be courageous, and he cannot cower like a coward, otherwise it is easy to be in danger.

As the old saying goes, it is ominous to turn back at night, there is a yang fire on the top of a person's head and shoulders, and a light is extinguished at a time.

There is a division of labor between the two people.

The horse lantern burns pine resin that trips the blood of the rooster, which can drive away yin and ward off evil spirits, and the light is good, if it is broken, it will not burst into flames, and the house is lit.

At nine o'clock, the night was already slowly deep, and the people in the township had developed the habit of going to bed early in the past year, and there were only a handful of houses left in the whole polder, and a few dim street lamps on the street were constantly flickering, as if they were going to be extinguished at any time.

I was instinctively nervous, and my instinct told me there were things in the dark, but I couldn't find where they were. Ever since the ominous sigil on his left hand was able to spew fire, the sensation had become more acute, much like a sixth sense.

Sure enough, halfway through, you can hear some dark places that can't be illuminated by horse lanterns, squirming, and from time to time you can hear the sound of something running away. I don't know if it's a wild cat and mouse, or a ghostly ghost.

Although the atmosphere of this lap was not as good as before, it was still safely completed. After that, the third watch, eleven o'clock; Fourth watch, one o'clock in the morning; The fifth watch, three o'clock in the morning.

After the fifth watch, we called it a day and had a peaceful night.

Only hit the fifth watch.

Because before the sixth watch, the rooster had already crowed, and the ancients went to bed early and got up early, and they almost got up on the sixth watch.

In addition, there is another saying, that is, after the sixth watch, the ghosts are stringing, where to go back and forth, they can't be alarmed, otherwise they miss the hour and don't go back, they should hide in the living people's homes, and what they have to worry about is the dead soul and the yin.

If they are disturbed, and the souls of the dead fail to enter the underworld in time and become ghosts, the sin will be great, and as for the darkness of the underworld, it will be even more doomed.

I slept until three o'clock in the morning, making up for seven hours of sleep.

When I got up, I saw that the township was really talking about the "post" of the husband, and it was all related to the exorcism, and even Feng Daniu called to ask.

For two days, it was all right.

It wasn't until the third day that it finally happened, and it was more than eleven o'clock on the third watch.

Suddenly we heard a cry.

"Woo woo ......", is a woman crying, very sad, weird, the voice is very ethereal, as if with the wind blowing, if you don't listen carefully, you can't tell the direction of the sound.

Cao Nan and I changed color, this voice, I'm afraid it's not someone crying.

"Check it out!" Cao Nan said.

I nodded, and the lantern followed the general direction.

If it were an ordinary watchman, I would have retracted immediately when I heard this sound, but we are different. Cao Nan said in advance that since he has been a watchman, he can't hide when he encounters something abnormal, otherwise he will lose the meaning of the watch, which is explained by Cao Nan's grandmother.

A little closer, the louder it became.

Soon, we found a clearly illusory figure in the corner, a woman with her back to us, wearing a very thin summer coat, two long braids, and a pair of white embroidered shoes on her feet.

The lantern shone on it, and there was no shadow.

I don't know why, but those white embroidered shoes felt a little familiar to me, as if I had seen them somewhere.

This is obviously not a living person, or a ghost, a ghost who will not have time to be reincarnated if he dies.

Cao Nan and I were tense all over, ready to fight desperately at any time, but fortunately, the last time we fought the ghosts in the secret vault of the Sect Inquisition gave us a little confidence, otherwise according to our previous courage, we would have fled in the wilderness a long time ago.

"Who are you and why are you crying here?" I asked.

When the woman heard this, her crying slowly became quieter, and she said, "I...... I don't know what to do anymore, I'm so cold and I want to get out of here. ”

"How could you not do without?" I asked cautiously.

"I don't know, woo-woo-woo......" she cried again.

"It's a revenant!" Cao Nan made a lip sync at me.

I nodded, there is a ghost aura on the ghost, very cold, but there is no ghost on the body, if there is and we are not aware of it, then it is not ordinarily powerful, and we can only count our bad luck when encountered.

"What's your name, turn around!" I said again, the woman looks very young, there have been no deaths in Jinpen Township recently, let alone such a young woman, looking at the back is twenty years old, it's really strange.

Hearing this, the woman slowly turned around, revealing a face that surprised us.

Feng Da Niu's wife!

I was shocked, Feng Daniu's wife was bitten to death on the second night of Feng Deliang's corpse, and the blood was sucked dry.

Half a year has passed, and she is still staying in the yang world, not reincarnating, nor turning into a ghost.

You must know that ghosts generally do not leave the yang world to go to the underworld for seven days, and it is easy to turn into ghosts, after all, yin qi is everywhere between heaven and earth, even if it is passively sucked, it should turn into ghosts.

"How could it be you?"

I couldn't believe my eyes, and when I saw Cao Nan, I was also shocked and puzzled, so I was sure that I was not wrong.

"You've been dead for so long, why don't you go to the underworld?" Cao Nan also asked.

Under normal circumstances, the souls of the dead after death are ignorant, and they will go to the underworld on their own when they are attracted by the underworld, and if the seven days have not arrived, the underworld will come up to hook the soul.

Of course, there are also people who are still alive and kicking when the limit is reached, and they will not be polite like Yincha, and the cause of death of such people is often to die of a violent illness without warning.

"Yin Cha said that my yang life is not over, and I can't be reincarnated." She said, and cried again.

Thousands of alpacas are running wildly in my heart, do Feng Da Niu know about this, he is still fighting with the Wang family.

and Feng Deliang, he was also bitten to death, is it possible that his soul will still stay in the yang world?

If so, it's a major breakthrough.
