Chapter 171: Another Wave
The people in the village also made a bloody capital this time, led by the village chief, door-to-door to raise money to make food, my grandfather's family also took out five oceans at that time, don't think that my grandfather's family was picking, at that time only food was expensive, labor was very cheap, five oceans carved six stone tablets are more than enough, it can be said that my grandfather's family almost all the cost of carving stone tablets bore down.
Subsequently, the village chief and several respected old people in the village took the money (including my grandfather, because my grandfather's family contributed the most money. A group of people went to the foot of the mountain to find a few families of stonemasons who specialized in carving tombstones, and paid a high price to urge them to work day and night to carve out the town and village stone (hereinafter referred to as the town stone) in the shortest possible time.
My grandfather didn't want to get involved in these things, and the reason why he went with him was because he was afraid that those stonemasons would mess up the town stone, and once there was a mistake in the procedure, the whole town stone would be scrapped.
Two days later, after the carving of the eight town stones was completed, the village chief, my grandfather and a few old people went to the other village to hire more than a dozen strong laborers, and used donkey carts to pull all the town stones back to the village.
When I didn't pull it back, my grandfather quietly looked at the town stones, and there was nothing wrong with the carving, as long as they were buried, it would work.
The next day, before dawn, the village chief came to my grandfather again, saying that he was going to Huanghuadong to take Xinyangzi over and bury the town stone. This time, my grandfather didn't go for some reason.
The village chief and several other old people set up two donkey carts, one of which was loaded with a cart full of grain, and went to Huanghuadong to pick up Xinyangzi.
Not long after breakfast, the gong sounded again in the village, and my grandfather went outside to take a look, and came back to tell my grandfather: "The chief of Huanghuadong has invited them to the village chief, and he is leading people to bury the town stone in the south of the village. ”
At this time, the autumn harvest has already been busy, and there is nothing to do in the fields at home, resulting in a lot of idlers nearby, and it is difficult to see where there is excitement to see. My grandfather took my grandmother and grandfather, like those idlers, to see the excitement.
When I arrived at the place, the first town stone had been buried, and I saw Xin Yangzi with a solemn face at this time, pinching the Tao, hanging his eyelids, and muttering in his mouth, and slowly turning back and forth around the buried town stone, looking like that.
In front of the town stone, the village chief took the family members of the villagers who were sick with strange diseases, the old and weak, women and children, and a large group of people were respectfully kowtowing to the buried town stone. After kowtowing, the village chief got up and recited the sacrificial words and burned the sacrificial text, and the villagers kowtowed to the town stone again.
After the villagers got up, Xinyangzi stopped turning in circles, walked to the front of the town stone, and read aloud: "Punish demons and exorcise evil spirits, Qingshi Yongzhen, Huanghua Daxian is as anxious as a law!" After reading, the palms of their hands were gently stroked from top to bottom, and the villagers hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed again.
The whole scene, since it was grand and solemn, the people from other villages who watched the excitement were also pious, and they didn't dare to breathe when they stood next to them.
Seeing this scene, a smile appeared on my grandfather's face, because these were all instructed by my grandfather to do this. According to my grandfather's meaning, the more grand and similar it is, the higher the status of Xinyangzi in the hearts of the villagers, and the more prosperous the incense in Huanghuadong will be in the future.
However, from the standpoint of the villagers, my grandfather instructed Xin Yangzi to do this, which is more or less lacking in morality, and everyone is like this in their families, and you still toss others, but people like my grandfather, we can't say anything about him, even his own grandfather is angry with him, what is this?
When the second stone was buried, Xinyangzi accidentally found my grandfather and my grandmother in the crowd, and secretly owed a slight debt to my grandfather and my grandmother, and my grandfather and my grandmother understood what he meant, smiled at him, and nodded.
When the fourth town stone was buried, that is, the town stone in the northeast of the village, others didn't think anything about it, my grandmother suddenly shuddered, my grandmother frowned, and whispered to my grandfather: "Dad, why do I think it's weird." ”
My grandfather turned his head to look at my grandmother, "What's wrong?" ”
My grandmother shook her head, "I don't know, I just think this northeast direction is weird, it doesn't seem to be very clean." ”
My grandfather smiled, glanced at the town stone that was being filled not far away, and said, "There's nothing strange about it, that town stone town is these unclean things, let's look at our liveliness, don't worry about it." ”
My grandmother heard my grandfather say this, nodded her head, and said nothing more.
At noon, Xinyangzi was surrounded by the villagers and went to the village chief's house for dinner.
At this moment, the hustle and bustle is over, eight town and village stones stand quietly in the eight directions of the village, just like the eight mighty village generals, at the same time, they are also eight living signboards eight Fengde monuments, no matter which road from the village in and out, people can see them, the front is engraved with the name of the eight gods, and the back is engraved with "Huanghua Cave Bluestone Daoist".
No matter when, whether it is a village or a foreigner, the people can see at a glance that this is the Huanghuadong bluestone Taoist erected, the town of Shizhen Village at the same time, but also helped Huanghuadong to do advertising, this is exactly my grandfather taught Xinyangzi "Bafang Stone", but did not pass on his "Sifang Stone" true intention, in the words of my grandfather, "Sifang Stone" is buried in the ground, if you use "Sifang Stone" town and village, wait until decades later, who still remembers that the village has buried stones? Who still remembers the bluestone Taoist in Huanghuadong who sacrificed his life?
Straight to the point. After the stone was laid, that night, my grandfather, my grandmother, and my grandfather, the three of them walked around the village, only to hear the strange illness of the villagers' houses, the men all came to the spirit, shouting, eating and drinking, and the whole village was almost brightly lit and laughing......
On the way home, my grandfather and my grandmother breathed a long sigh of relief and were very pleased!
The next day, early in the morning, the villagers in groups, spontaneously went to Huanghuadong to burn incense and worship God, before the village to get together the money and food have not been used up, several old people in the village discussed, caught up with two donkey carts, all sent to Huanghuadong.
Of course, my grandfather's family didn't go to Huanghuadong. When it was almost noon, the villagers who went to Huanghuadong to burn incense returned one after another, of course, most of these villagers were women, and the men were still very weak and couldn't go out.
However, my grandmother noticed a very strange phenomenon at this time, when many women went, they didn't seem to have children with them, and at this time, several women had an extra child around them.
My grandmother took a closer look at those children and understood that these were the children adopted by Xinyangzi, and it seemed that Xinyangzi must have said that these children were the reincarnation of some kind of golden boy, and deceived these women into bringing the children home to raise.
My grandmother looked at the children around those women, very envious, at the same time, the urge to adopt a child appeared in her heart, there are so many children in Huanghuadong, looking for Xinyangzi to take one home to raise, Xinyangzi will definitely not be able to ask for it.
However, I just don't know if my grandfather and my grandfather can agree, so my grandmother wanted to find a suitable opportunity to discuss with my grandfather and my grandfather, however, before she could find a chance to discuss this matter with my grandfather and grandfather, something happened in the village soon.
On the third night of the stone laying, a strong wind blew inexplicably in the village, and the wind blew darkly.
My grandmother said to my grandfather, "There is a lot of yin in this wind, and there seems to be a powerful evil thing in the village." ”
My grandfather smiled and said, "Where are there so many powerful evil things, and besides, there are eight town stones outside the village, and nothing can be entered." ”
My grandmother shook her head, "This evil thing is very resentful, I'm afraid Zhenshi can't control it." ”
My grandfather said, "Then wait until dawn tomorrow to take a look, when the wind is blowing outside, even people can't stand." ”
The next day, several old trees in the village were broken by the strong wind, but at the end of the day, I didn't hear anything evil in the village.
Another day, at noon, many people in the village shouted, my grandfather went to the family to ask, it turned out that the man in the family was sick again, exactly the same as before, my grandfather went to other people's houses to see, and it was the same.
After lunch, many women and old people poured into the village chief's house, asking the village chief to go up the mountain to find Xinyangzi to settle accounts, and spent so much effort to get a few big stones, and the whole village kowtowed to the stones and burned incense, and it didn't work for so many days.
At that time, my grandfather also followed the villagers to the village chief's house, and when he heard what the villagers said, he hurried home to find my grandfather.
My grandfather didn't say a word, and took my grandmother and my grandfather to the village chief's house. At this time, at the door of the village chief's house, the villagers had already set up several donkey carts and were ready to leave for the mountain.
The three of my grandfather stopped them, because when the money was paid, my grandfather's family paid the most, and in terms of losses, my grandfather's family suffered the most losses, and his words were the most weighty.
My grandfather pulled the village chief to a place where there was no one, and said to the village chief, it is not suitable for so many people to go up the mountain, and besides, Xinyangzi is full of spells, and no one can afford to make him anxious, and he has had a few encounters with Xinyangzi, and is willing to go up the mountain to find Xinyangzi on behalf of the whole village, and he will definitely give the whole village a satisfactory explanation when the time comes.
The village chief saw my grandfather say this, and it was not easy to say anything, although these people in the village were clamoring to go up the mountain to find Xinyangzi to settle accounts, but they all had a little awe of Huanghuadong in their hearts, although Xinyangzi was not famous, but his master Qingshi Daoren was well-known in this area. The Last Ghost Hunter:
The people in this area near Huanghua Cave don't know that the Qingshi Daoist is dead, and Xinyangzi has never told anyone, and once others ask, they always say that his master is in retreat and cultivation.
My grandfather said something, the village chief thought for a while, and finally nodded in agreement, and the villagers dispersed under the persuasion of my grandfather and the village chief.
After suppressing these people in the village, my grandfather did not go up the mountain to find Xinyangzi, but returned home and closed the door, and studied the cause of the failure of the town stone with my grandmother, but the research came and went, but no results were studied.
At this time, my grandfather came back from outside, and when he entered the door, he told my grandfather and my grandmother that I don't know who overturned the town stone in the northeast of the village.
When my grandfather and my grandmother heard this, it was no wonder that something would happen, as soon as the town stone fell, it was equivalent to breaking the array, and those grievances entered the village again.
My grandmother frowned and said, "Who did this, such a lack of morality!" ”
My grandfather said, "Don't worry about who did it, let's go, let's go to the northeast town stone to have a look......" - The last ghost hunter-
