Chapter 343: There is no way forward
Wu Zhiyuan told the middle-aged woman to plant three rows of pine trees between the village and the road in front of her, and the pine trees should be staggered to ensure that there are no large gaps between the trees, but it is winter at this time, and transplanting trees cannot survive at all, so you can temporarily erect a screen wall in front of your house to solve the urgent task of transplanting pine trees after the spring of the next year.
At the same time, two unicorn stone statues are placed on both sides of the front door of the house, according to the order of the male left and the female right, the unicorn stone statue should not be too small, should be at least half a person high, if the stonemason does not carve the shape of the unicorn, it can also be replaced by two stone lions.
In addition, on the night of the full moon on the fifteenth day of each month, before the sun sets, a live chicken is slaughtered, and the blood of the chicken is sprinkled in front of the courtyard and the front of the house, and all doors and windows must be closed that night, no matter how hot the weather is, no door or window can be opened.
After telling these things that need attention, Wu Zhiyuan was afraid that the middle-aged woman would not remember it, so he asked her to repeat it, and made sure that she remembered these three things, so he nodded.
In the Maoshan Dao technique, there are many magic tools that can be used to resolve evil qi, such as the Bagua Mirror, Dao Fu, Five Emperors Copper Coins, etc., but Wu Zhiyuan only has a peach wood sword with him, and he doesn't even have yellow paper that can be used to draw talismans, so it is impossible to use Maoshan magic weapons to dispel evil at this time. Wu Zhiyuan can only find another way, he can't dissolve the evil qi, but he can also weaken or shield the evil qi, and after careful consideration for a while, he came up with these three ways to shield the evil qi.
Pine trees belong to the conifer category, planting three rows of staggered pine trees in front of the village, although it blocks the field of vision, it is not sightly, but it has an obvious effect on shielding the opposite side of the bow evil qi and the yin evil qi that is approaching, and the pine tree interval should not be too wide, otherwise the effect of blocking the evil qi will be weakened. Considering that it was winter and it was not suitable to transplant trees, a screen wall could only be temporarily erected between the front of the village and the road as a stopgap measure.
The unicorn is an ancient auspicious beast, the male is the unicorn, the female is the lin, the image of its dragon head, horse body, dragon scales is more complex, and it is extremely difficult to carve, so many stonemasons are clumsy in making zuò, but the effect of its town house to ward off evil spirits is also mentioned in the Maoshan Taoism, and the effect is obvious, the stone lion is second, Wu Zhiyuan considered that the stonemason skills in this poor countryside are clumsy, if the unicorn can not be carved, it can be reluctantly replaced by the stone lion.
The Evil Qi can only go straight and cannot turn on its own, so the more barriers you place in the direction that the Evil Qi is coming from, the more the Evil Qi will be reduced. The family behind the middle-aged woman's house was actually affected by the evil qi, but because there was a middle-aged woman's family in front of it, the evil qi weakened a lot, and the impact was not obvious. Wu Zhiyuan instructed her to close the doors and windows for this reason, and at the same time, the heaviest day of the month is the fifteenth full moon night of the month, when the Big Dipper moves and the ghost door is wide open, which is the peak of the yin qi of the month. As soon as the yin qi is strong, the evil qi will be heavy, so the newly slaughtered chicken blood must be sprinkled in front of the courtyard gate and the house door before sunset on the same day, in the Maoshan Taoism, the chicken blood is the heaviest yang in all domestic animals, more than the black dog blood, but the Maoshan faction often uses the black dog blood to deal with zombies, instead of using chicken blood, because the black dog is a psychic thing, and its blood naturally contains aura, which can lead out the remnants of the zombie's body, so as to eliminate it. The use of chicken blood here is just the use of the yang energy of chicken blood to block the impact of evil qi.
"Big brother, isn't it...... Is my house haunted? The middle-aged woman has long been full of suspicions, and the chicken blood, unicorn, etc. reminded her of the hauntings that are prevalent among the people.
"It's nothing, it's just a matter of feng shui. As long as you do what I say, my eldest brother's illness will gradually get better. Wu Zhiyuan deliberately made a relaxed expression, he didn't want this middle-aged woman to live in tension and fear in the future.
The middle-aged woman was immediately grateful when she heard this, for her, Wu Zhiyuan was not only her child's life-saver, but now she also saved her husband, and for a while, she didn't know what to say to express her gratitude.
While the two were talking, Hua Gu's voice came from behind them: "Little brother, Miss Ju'er insists on leaving." ”
Wu Zhiyuan turned around and saw that Ju'er was being helped into the courtyard by Hua Gu at this time. Wu Zhiyuan hurriedly greeted him, but before he could speak, Ju'er said that he wanted to leave immediately.
Wu Zhiyuan couldn't help but be stubborn, so he could only nod his head in agreement, and asked the middle-aged woman, only to know that along the official road all the way to the east, there was a town fifty miles away, where you could stay in the tip.
It was just after noon, and at the speed of three wagons, it was possible to reach the town fifty miles away before dark. Wu Zhiyuan thought about it a little, and then beckoned everyone to pack up their things and prepare to go on the road.
The middle-aged woman saw that her benefactor was leaving, so she kept it again and again, but she knew that Wu Zhiyuan must have something important to do, so she could only send her with tears in the end. This reunion was an accident, and the reunion may be far away.
The middle-aged woman hurriedly returned to the house, picked up the child who had just woken up, and sent Wu Zhiyuan and others to the official road.
When Wu Zhiyuan was about to turn around and get into the carriage, the middle-aged woman grabbed him and asked reluctantly: "Big brother, you are a good person, the eldest sister knows that your name is not Wu Maoshan, but after this time, the eldest sister doesn't know if she can see you in this life, if you can, can you tell the eldest sister your name and where you live, and when this child grows up, I will also tell him the name of his benefactor." ”
The middle-aged woman said, looking at the child in her arms, the child was holding fingers in his mouth, staring at the round and watery eyes, and looked at Wu Zhiyuan quietly.
Wu Zhiyuan pondered for a while, and said with a slightly honest smile: "Eldest sister, you are polite, the Maoshan faction has always been committed to saving people and helping others, if it weren't for you but someone else, the Maoshan disciples would do the same, it's not a kindness, don't worry too much." ”
The middle-aged woman was a little disappointed when she heard this, and at this moment, Yu Yisu in the carriage on the side lifted the curtain of the canopy and said with a smile: "My nephew's name is Wu Zhiyuan, and his family lives in Wujia Village, the boundary of Longshan in the east. ”
Wu Zhiyuan glanced back at Yu Yisu, who grimaced at him and retracted his head into the canopy.
The middle-aged woman was suddenly overjoyed, nodded heavily, and said with a smile: "Brother Wu, if you pass by our village in the future, you must go to the eldest sister's house to sit down." ”
Wu Zhiyuan smiled and nodded, turned around and got into the carriage.
When the three carriages walked far away, Wu Zhiyuan lifted the curtain of the canopy and saw that the middle-aged woman was still standing on the side of the road, holding the child in her arms, staring at the direction of the carriage for a long time.
Although the official road is wide, it cannot accommodate three carriages driving side by side, so it is still Sun Haozi driving in front, Manniu driving behind, and in the middle is a carriage carrying dry food and ocean.
The three carriages went all the way to the east, non-stop, and soon rushed out for more than thirty miles, at this time the scene on both sides of the road changed, originally both sides were full of low weeds, at this time there were already patches of woods, fortunately at this time the leaves withered, the carriage passed through the woods, did not block the view.
The overall speed of the three carriages all depends on the head horse, that is, the carriage driven by Sun Haozi, who is already a little anxious, so he constantly waved the whip, and the horse that pulled the carriage also ran forward desperately, so the carriage was extremely fast.
Then at such a fast speed, Wu Zhiyuan suddenly heard the "beep" knocking sound of the canopy of the carriage, and at the same time a voice shouted "Brother Wu" outside, Wu Zhiyuan lifted the curtain of the canopy and looked out, only to see Hua Gu running with the carriage at a gallop, while worrying: "Brother Wu, the situation is not good, we seem to be being followed." ”
Wu Zhiyuan's heart sank when he heard this, and he was just about to tell Sun Haozi, who was sitting in front of him to stop, but he felt a sudden shock of the carriage, and the speed of the carriage decreased sharply, as if Sun Haozi suddenly reined in the reins of the horse.
Sure enough, then I heard Sun Haozi's voice scolding angrily: "His grandmother's, there is no way!" ”
