Chapter 106: Strange Iron Rod
Su Xue used a fake name when she was looking for a fairy mother-in-law to tell her fortune, and she also won a little life for herself. Although I thought of a way to help Su Xue get sleepy, I hesitated for a long time and still didn't start.
It's not that I don't want to help her, but I have a bold idea in my heart, and I want to take this opportunity to completely destroy the curse of the Seven Evil Coffins of Yin and Yang.
I took Su Xue and walked around the mountains for a few days, but in the end I still found nothing, which couldn't help but make me disappointed. How easy is it to find a corpse that has not yet decomposed, to impersonate Su Xue, and replace her as Yu Hengxing in the curse of the Yin and Yang Seven Evil Coffins?
Together with Su Xue, I wandered around the mountains for a long time, and when it was almost noon, I saw Su Xue hungry and tired, and I couldn't help but feel a little unbearable. Seeing a low thatched hut in a col, I decided to take a break and see if I could find something to eat.
As soon as I approached the thatched hut, I felt strange all around, but I couldn't say what it was like. An old lady heard the movement and walked out of the house. She heard that we were passing through and wanted to beg for a drink, so she welcomed us into the house very warmly.
After Su Xue and I drank a big bowl of water, Su Xue suddenly asked, "Wife, is there a photo of Taigong hanging on the wall?" Do you live here alone? ”
When the old lady heard this, her eyes turned red, and she said gloomily after a while: "That's my wife, she has always been in good health, but I don't know what's going on, he left me alone three months ago." ”
Su Xue asked in surprise with an 'ah' sound, "Where did the prince go?" How can he be like this, he has been dependent on each other for a lifetime, how can he leave you now? ”
I stopped Su Xue from continuing to ask, because I knew that the old lady meant 'gone' not that the old man in the photo on the wall had left the house, but that he was dead.
I stared at the pictures on the wall for a while and thought it was weird. Why do I think a portrait of a dead man is miserable? Thinking of the strange feeling I had before I entered the house, my intuition told me that there was something hidden in this.
Su Xue also understood that she had said the wrong thing at this time, so she quickly diverted the conversation and said, "Old lady, how can there be a dead chicken at your door?" Did you just slaughter it? I like chicken soup the most, and if my wife cooks a meal for the two of us, can I pay for it? ”
The old lady said gloomily: "What you see is not my chicken, but the pheasants in the mountains." Alas, I don't know why there are so many dead chickens in front of my house, it's all strange things that started to happen after my old man picked up something. ”
Her words immediately aroused the strong interest of Su Xue and me. The old lady told us that three months ago, her wife came back with a rusty iron rod in her hand.
The old man casually threw the iron rod in the corner, and after the old lady had eaten, she picked it up and stuck it in the courtyard. The courtyard wall of her house had fallen into disrepair and had collapsed one of its horns. The old lady inserted an iron rod and tied a few straw ropes, which was regarded as repairing the courtyard wall.
But the next morning, when the old lady got up, she was surprised to find a dead pheasant lying on the iron rod of the courtyard wall. The old lady stepped forward and touched it, and the pheasant's body was still warm, and she couldn't help but be full of joy, so she plucked the pheasant and cooked a large pot of soup.
What surprised her even more was that almost every morning, a pheasant would fall by the iron bar. After eating for seven days, the old lady told her wife what was on her mind.
The old man also felt that this matter was too strange, so he quietly hid by the iron rod alone in the middle of the night, wanting to see what was going on. When the old lady got up in the morning, she found that her wife was not around, and suddenly thought of her wife guarding the iron rod last night, and she couldn't help but feel cold.
She hurried out of the house, and saw her wife lying upright by the iron rod like a dead pheasant, and the old lady fainted with fright.
After handling the funeral of his wife, another pheasant died by the iron rod, which made the old lady very frightened. She thought the iron rod was unlucky, so she pulled it out and threw it into the ravine.
But that night, her wife gave a dream to the old lady, blaming the old lady for pulling out the iron rod, so that he had no more pheasants to eat in the yin, and his life was bitter. When the old lady awoke, she searched for a long time, and at last went to the ravine to find the iron rod and inserted it back into its place.
From that day on, one pheasant died every day by the iron bar. It's just that the old lady was scared, and she didn't dare to come out in the middle of the night to see what was going on, nor did she dare to eat pheasants, but buried pheasants in the field behind the yard every day.
After listening to the old lady's speech, I couldn't help but feel happy in my heart, and a text in the 'corpse table' jumped out of my mind. Maybe that iron rod is really evil, so I can use it to realize my idea.
I rushed out of the house, came to the corner of the courtyard, and squatted in front of the iron rod for a long time. Although the iron rod was rusty, its strange shape, and the places where I could barely make out half a word, caught my attention.
Obviously, this could not be an ordinary iron rod, but like a tattered ancient sword. I don't know how the old man picked up the iron rod, but I have decided that it is not a mascot.
I told the old lady that the iron rod in her house was not auspicious, and that it was after it killed her wife, and the old lady's face turned white with fright. When she learned that I was a Taoist priest, she begged me to help her find a way to avoid evil.
I pondered for a while and said, "Lady, this iron rod has a fierce spirit attached to it, and the fierce spirit on this iron sword is caused by the fierce spirit sucking the blood of the pheasant. Your wife, squatting in the middle of the night, accidentally saw an evil ghost, he may have been scared to death, or he may have let the evil ghost kill. ”
Su Xue shuddered and said nervously, "Ling Sen, then this iron rod is so evil, why don't you hurry up and throw it away?" ”
The old lady hurriedly shouted: "That's not good, I threw it, what is my wife eating in the pubic division?" I gave it to me last time, and I just got it back. ”
I sighed and said, "Old lady, do you really think that's your wife's true words?" Let me tell you, this iron rod sucked the blood of the pheasant, you threw it away, and the unjust soul in the iron rod was not enshrined, and it was the unjust soul that forced your wife to come to you to give you a dream. ”
The old lady was startled and said nervously, "Young man, you didn't lie to me, did you?" If this is the case, then my wife's life will be miserable. Alas, if I really threw it away, would the evil spirit take out anger on my wife? ”
I comforted the old lady and promised her that I would do a ritual for her wife, so that her wife's soul would be reincarnated as soon as possible, and she would no longer be controlled by that unjust soul.
