Chapter 20: Water Without Roots

Considering the spell of "Missing a Door", it was easy for the disciples to be proud and deceive, so he deliberately set up a rule, the son is outside, and the master is inside, the son bullies the master, and the son must not die well, and the master deceives the son, the son can also be the opposite.

This rule says that when going out to work, unless the owner deceives others, the carpenter must not harm others, and once he harms others, he must not die well, and his hands will be paralyzed at least, and the whole family will die.

When this rule was first established, a disciple of the ancestor master, named Xinzi, he felt that the rules of the ancestor were just talking, not necessarily useful, and did not take it seriously, when he went out to work, he moved a crooked idea, and asked the owner for ten times the salary, the owner did not give it, so he drew a tiger on the door of the owner, and cast a spell, about a month later, the owner was eaten by the tiger when he went up the mountain once.

When Master Zu knew about this, he asked Xinzi the reason, and Xinzi said that the owner was unwilling to pay the salary. However, as soon as Master Zu investigated, he learned that Xin Zi wanted a high salary, and his old man was angry at the beginning, but he didn't scold Xin Zi, but just said, "Those who break their rules will be punished." ”

On the third day, the Xinzi family, old and young, died suddenly and inexplicably, and the death was extremely terrifying, and everyone's hands seemed to have been torn off alive by some huge force.

This incident made a lot of noise at the time, and the official also investigated the cause of death, no one could say the reason, and finally this matter was over, but this matter was widely circulated in the carpenter circle, and a group of carpenters believed that this was a violation of the rules of the grandfather, and suffered retribution, and over time, the carpenters called this rule, the curse of the grandfather, also called the curse of Luban.

Coincidentally, just after the grandfather's death, a very small number of carpenters thought that the curse should be gone with the death of the grandfather, so they took the risk and used the spell of "Missing a Door" to harm people, and the result was no different from Xinzi, and the family died suddenly and broke their hands.

In this way, every carpenter feels that he has a pair of eyes behind him when he is working, staring at his every move, once he has a crooked thought, he will be cursed by the grandfather, especially those carpenters with exquisite craftsmanship, who are even more particular about this.

As I said before, "Missing a Door" is divided into two volumes, the upper volume is a spell that harms people, and the next volume is a spell to save people, and our ghost craftsman originally learned the spell to save people, but somehow this spell to save people did not last long, and it was lost in the early Han Dynasty, until the appearance of a character, this spell to save people was passed down in another way.

This character is Zhang Liang with peerless talent, he and Han Xin, Xiao He and known as the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty, everyone only knows that Zhang Liang has military talent, only some carpenters know that Zhang Liang's attainments in carpentry are not lower than Lu Ban, and some people even think that Zhang Liang has far surpassed the ancestor Lu Ban, in that society where respecting the teacher is greater than everything, Zhang Liang does not dare to hold up, and has always been inferior to the grandfather.

After the establishment of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Liang resigned and returned to his hometown, first spent three years perfecting some mistakes in the wooden tools, and then created two spells, one for the "Engineer Miles", and the other for the text.

At that time, the second volume of "Missing a Door" had been lost, so Zhang Liang combined these two spells into one, and made up for the second half of "Missing a Door", that is, the spell to save people, and strictly educated his disciples and grandchildren, not to say that this spell was created by Zhang Liang, and it can be regarded as respect for the ancestor.

It is precisely because these two spells were added later, so many of these spells are targeted, targeting the harmful spells in the first half of "Missing a Door". Therefore, strictly speaking, the real ancestor of our ghost craftsman is actually Zhang Liang, but Lu Ban is first, and we, the descendants, dare not make a mistake, so we can only call Lu Ban the ancestor together.

However, when doing some specific things, our ghost craftsmen will move out the statue of Zhang Liang and place it together with the statue of the ancestor Lu Ban, and when placing the position, we should put the statue of Zhang Liang slightly behind, not side by side.

It is precisely because of this little story that I will keep a calm face, if according to Li Chengze, he gets along very well with the old master, then the old master will not be able to harm him, after all, this thing will have to bear the consequences.

Could it be that this wooden window is no problem?

In a flash, I asked Li Chengze to bring a bucket of rootless water, intending to try the wooden window.

Speaking of this rootless water, in fact, it is clear water that has not been eroded by the turbidity of the ground, and the water caught on a rainy day can be called rootless water, but the best rootless water is the dew that comes out in the morning, this kind of water is pure to yang, and has a restraining effect on some filth.

Li Chengze stared at me for a long time, and finally held back a sentence, saying no.

I was a little disappointed when I thought about it, yes, who is okay to catch the rain on a rainy day, and no one is bored enough to tinker with the dew.

And the reason why I want rootless water, in the words of my senior brother, those carpenters, the spells passed down by the ancestor are almost lost, and there are few people who really know how to harm people.

Just when he was disappointed, Li Chengze seemed to think of something, and said to me: "By the way, didn't it rain some time ago, there is a family in our village, and the water leakage at home is serious, and he often uses wooden barrels to catch rainwater, and I don't know if his family has it." ”

I looked overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Go and ask." ”

That Li Chengze nodded, and hurriedly walked out, and after a while, he walked in with a wooden barrel, and said happily: "Little brother, it's a coincidence, that person's wooden barrel has been placed there to receive water, and there is exactly half a bucket, but the water in this wooden barrel is a little dirty, I don't know if it's okay?" ”

I looked down and saw that the water in this bucket was not dirty, just some garlic cloves floating, and I estimated that this bucket should be placed in the kitchen to receive water, I said yes, and asked him again, "Remember to give money for this bucket of water, otherwise it will not work." ”

Li Chengze's face changed, and he hurriedly walked out, saying that he was going to give money.

When he returned, I asked again if I had given the money, and he said yes, so I dared to pour some water from my cup and splash it through the wooden window.

With the rootless water splashed on the wooden window, the window did not change at all, and flowed down the wooden window, and the water stain route was particularly obvious, not like it was moved by the carpenter, which made my heart sink like iron, and I was alive and hell, according to what my brother said, the general house was manipulated and tamped, and this rootless water can definitely be tested.

However, the situation in front of me is wrong!

At that moment, I carried rootless water and splashed some wooden doors in Li Chengze's house again, but the result was the same as the wooden windows, no change was made.

Then Li Chengze saw that I had been working on it for a long time, and I didn't come up with a reason, his face was a little wrong, so he said: "Little brother, you can't do it, if you can't do it, go find your master!" ”

I glanced up at him, and didn't speak, since this rootless water is useless, then I can only use the most primitive method, measure the size with the Luban ruler, distinguish yin and yang by size, determine the evil luck with yin and yang, and break the method with the evil luck.
