Chapter 270: Soul Bead
The rabbit saw in the coffin that it was not his wife, but his daughter-in-law, who was also Ah Fa's mother.
No one knows whether he fired that shot or not, but that day, his daughter-in-law was indeed wearing a small jacket of broken blue cloth, or he personally went to the town to tear the cloth and found the old tailor Cao to tailor it.
There was a person lying in the coffin, also a woman, not wearing a phoenix crown and a shawl dress, and it was indeed his daughter-in-law.
After all, Master Rabbit came back safely, whether it was his life or something else, Ah Fa didn't know. Anyway, when he came back, his daughter-in-law was gone, and she was also missing. At this point, there was a lot of discussion in the village, Lao Tzu lost his daughter-in-law, and his son also lost his daughter-in-law, so it was Ah Fa's turn to marry his wife, and he was a lame man, which was quite difficult.
The woman she married later was a little stunned in rural dialect, and she didn't go through the brain much to do things and speak, but she had a set of ways to clean up Ah Fa. Maybe it's because of his disability since childhood, Ah Fa was a loner when he was very young, and he didn't read much, but pen, ink, paper, and inkstone at home were not uncommon.
If you enter that hole, you will definitely lose your daughter-in-law, which has almost become a curse for their family. It's not comfortable for anyone to be left on it. So Ah Fa also went out to cross the rivers and lakes when he was young, and he arrived at their family's ancestral hometown: Jurong.
Jurong, famous for Maoshan Mountain, is one of the three holy places of Taoism, and it is also one of the few places in China where Taoism can flourish. He went to Jurong, first, to learn the Tao, and second, to break the game. Three generations of the family are not prosperous, two generations of women have disappeared inexplicably, and they have all encountered the same strange thing, he is a person with a city government, and he wants to break the family's century-old curse.
Learn to be a Taoist priest, it depends on the talent and Taoism, Ah Fa is a person with brains, but his body is indeed defective, and people with a little name refuse to accept him as a disciple, and finally meet a scattered Taoist disciple when he is poor.
Ah Fa was worried about that period of the past in his heart, so he was quite anxious to learn the Tao, which was precisely a taboo in the Daomen. The most important thing for a person who learns the Tao is to be calm and go with the flow, and there is no quick fix. Although Ah Fa's talent is in the middle and upper, but he does not have a heart for the Tao, and after taking him for three years, the scattered dao finally sent him back to his hometown.
Ah Fa still learned a little bit there, and the thing that made him most proud was that he stole something from the loose pocket. This thing is something that even Cha Wenbin has never seen, and it is also the reason why he has been blinded several times.
This thing has a name called the Soul Bead, and its appearance is a bit ordinary, a round jade-like pendant with dark green, the size of which is the size of a glass marble.
As soon as Ah Fa took out this thing, Cha Wenbin gasped. What kind of soul bead is this, he only needs to look at it to know the general origin of this thing.
Taoist priests exorcise evil spirits and often use dead jade. This jade is divided into many grades in the eyes of connoisseurs, and this kind of thing is distinguished internationally according to the origin, luster, transmittance, color and texture, etc. But in the eyes of Taoist priests, there are only two kinds of jade: dead and alive.
What is living jade, it is said that good jade has to be raised by people, and it is a woman. Generally, women wear jade ornaments on their left hands, which has always symbolized vitality. If a person's mentality is upward and radiant, then the jade jewelry she wears will become more and more shiny, and the lines in the jade will also grow, becoming more and more beautiful, and the water is smart, this is the living jade, and the jade is through the hearts of the people.
There is also a kind of dead jade, most of this kind of jade is not good material, with it, it will not become warm, and it will not feel the breath of people, so the Taoist priest will use this jade as the best prop to block the soul, trapped inside, isolated from the world.
After a long time, the jade reacts with some metal elements in the soil, and it will dip into the black texture in the texture of the jade.
It's such a craft, and some people use it to make another kind of article. Many people like to be active at night, and instead of dealing with living people, they specialize in playing with ghosts. Some Taoist priests took the good living jade and sealed the soul of a little ghost in the jade. This method has not been passed on for too long, and it has only been a hundred years, and it was invented according to the head of the Nanyang generation.
The little ghost is naturally the kind of baby soul that has not yet arrived in the stillborn womb. This kind of soul is the most easy to raise, because he has never seen his mother. Some Taoist priests seal this soul into the jade, and then wear it by their side all the year round or simply find someone to raise it, and use their bodies to develop a dependence relationship with the little ghosts in it through the medium of jade.
Because that little ghost is a very angry thing, so after the living person wears it on his body, his popularity will be covered by this little ghost, and usually those wandering lonely souls and wild ghosts will regard this as their own kind.
Ah Fa wore this thing and touched the hole, but he didn't see his daughter-in-law in the coffin, nor did he see his mother and grandmother, but an empty coffin was placed there, and there was nothing in it.
There was a slightly larger one next to the coffin, and no one had opened it, so he wondered if he should open it too. Just when he was so hesitant, a person came in from the entrance of the cave, and the person who came was none other than the old Tao he worshipped from Jurong.
Lao Dao knew that his things had been stolen, and he didn't break them, so he followed them all the way to Zhejiang, just to see what knots this halfway disciple had in his heart.
The old man only came in and said a word that made Ah Fa retreat, and the old man said: "If you don't believe me, I can make a bet with you, as long as you open this coffin, you will definitely see yourself walking in it." The feng shui evil situation here is not something I can break, and it is not something you can break, if you want to survive, it is best to get out immediately. ”
After all, this old Tao is his master, and seeing the serious expression he speaks is not to scare him, Ah Fa followed the old Tao out of the cave together.
Lao Dao this person is also a little interesting, always a master and apprentice, the soul bead was given to Ah Fa like this, before leaving, he told Ah Fa that if you want to break this game, you need to wait for twenty years, and someone will naturally solve it.
This is twenty years, and in these twenty years, Ah Fa married a wife and had children, but he just focused on being an obscure farmer, and even gave people the impression that he was a bit of a wretched in the village.
After listening to this somewhat long story, Cha Wenbin asked, "So, is this year exactly twenty years old?" ”
Ah Fa nodded and said, "I think, the person who can solve the game should be you." ”
"Oh? Why are you so sure? Seeing his calm appearance, Cha Wenbin swept away the man in his past impression, which really meant that he was a man in the Daomen.
"Only you can tell where that plank came from, that's the sign I used to find someone." Ah Fa continued, "I don't have much skills, I can only know a little fur, but with this bead, I can be psychic. When I first started using them, I was a little scared, but later I found out that they are just us living in another world, and we also have feelings and thoughts. So, I got a few partners to complete this together, and the purpose is to bring you in to break the game for me. ”
Cha Wenbin asked: "Then the coffin board and the trick were all made by yourself?" ”
Ah Fa walked a few steps, raised his head and said: "I can't wait, you have been in our village a few times, I have seen your ability, you are indeed a master." That board was dismantled from the base of the coffin, I dismantled it, and I asked an old man to do the evil thing, and please don't blame it. ”
Cha Wenbin waved his hand and said: "There are more ghosts in the world, as long as they don't hurt people, I don't ask anyone when I check them." People are humane, ghosts also have ghosts, although people and ghosts have different paths, but you can make friends with ghosts, you are probably the first one I have ever seen. However, I kindly advise you, your so-called soul bead absorbs too much yang energy from you, and I am afraid that it will be harmful to you. ”
Cha Wenbin wanted to continue to remind something, but was stopped by Ah Fa: "I understand, so, I said I can't wait." I'm not sure to convince you to break the game for me, because what this ancestor did is dishonorable after all, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is retribution. But after all, they are my relatives, and I want to die, and I hope to die. As a last resort, I have come up with such a plan to invite you, and now I want to check whether the Taoist priest is interested in helping me break this situation that has entangled the hearts of three generations of the family. ”
Cha Wenbin is not very keen on studying this kind of evil situation, first, most of this kind of situation is extremely dangerous, and the weirdness of it will not be inferior to the gossip array of Zhuge back then. Second, most of the evil situations are set up for defense, and they will not be set up at the entrance of crowded market towns and villages, and harmful things rarely happen, just like in this tomb, the owner of the tomb is only to seek cleanliness in the end.
"Help you break the game, I really don't have much interest, but, brother, I want to remind you again, don't be used as a pawn in the game without knowing it, do you know that the soul you recruited is a man, but there are female ghosts who have been involved in it? If it's really as simple as you say," Cha Wenbin pointed to the mountain beside him and continued, "You don't need me to make a move, just this brother next to me can destroy the coffin for you with one hand!" ”
