Chapter 357: Old Ginger
Boss Long hesitated for a moment, then counted out another 30,000 baht and handed it to Lao Xie. Lao Xie took the money and put it in his purse, and then sent a receipt to Boss Long.
In the evening, Lao Xie and Azanhongban ate a big pot of rice with the workers, which tasted good, but it was a little vegetarian. Boss Long's project was temporarily suspended because of an accident. But the workers still have to be fed, and they have to use the minimum standard for three meals a day. At midnight, the workers all turned off their lights and went to bed. Azanhongban sat cross-legged in the center of the construction site, with Lao Xie and Boss Long standing beside him. The only high-tiled lamp at the construction site was also extinguished at night, and Azan Hongban began chanting a mantra a few minutes later. I heard the "clanging" sound of the wire rope being broken from the corner, and then there was another loud bang. Boss Long hurriedly ran to the office to turn on the high-tile lamp, and several workers ran out to see that the two thick cement-based pillars that had been lifted in the air by the crane smashed on the ground.
Boss Long said to the workers: "Go back to sleep, there's nothing to see!" The workers felt strange and whispered back to the mobile house.
"What's going on?" Boss Long asked Lao Xie uneasily. Lao Xie said that either your wire rope is not of good quality, or the Yin Spirit is angry. Boss Long looked nervous, and Azan Hongban took out his mask and asked Boss Long to put it on. Boss Long took the mask and looked at it: "What am I wearing this thing for, I'm not a wizard!" β
Lao Xie smiled helplessly: "Put it on first, Master Azan must have his intentions." Boss Long put the mask on his face and sat opposite Azanhongban, who continued to chant the mantra, and after a few minutes, Boss Long slowly stood up. Walk towards the office.
"Hey, Boss Long, why don't you cooperate, isn't this-" Lao Xie stopped talking, because he saw that Boss Long was walking in a weird posture, as if he wasn't walking, and someone was pinching his legs alternately.
He followed closely behind Boss Long and entered the office, Boss Long came to the front of the office, grabbed the glass ashtray and threw it on the ground, and then made a drag movementβ΅ out of the office, until he came to a certain place on the construction site. Boss Long walked up to an excavator, boarded it and started starting, and roared somewhere to start digging a pit.
A few more workers came out of the mobile house, cursing, "What's going on?" Still don't let people sleep? β
Boss Long drove an excavator and dug a big pit somewhere and lifted the excavated soil to the side. The two workers walked to the excavator and shouted loudly to the boss dragon inside, and kept waving their hands, but the boss ignored it completely and continued to dig. Suddenly, Lao Xie saw an object rolling out of the soil, as if it was a person. The worker next to him was shocked: "There are people, there are people in the soil!" Boss Long didn't turn off the engine, jumped off the excavator, came to the place just now, and continued to drag until he walked to the edge of the pit.
Two bold workers came to the object, looked at it by the moonlight, and shouted in fright: "Old ginger, it's old ginger!" β
"How can it be old ginger? Didn't he go back to his hometown in Anhui? A worker asked suspiciously.
Boss Long was about to jump on the excavator again, more workers ran out, and someone wanted to go over and hold down Boss Long, but was stopped by Lao Xie: "Don't move, Master Azan is casting a spell, Boss Long is now possessed by a yin spirit!" β
The workers were stunned, watching Boss Long fill the pile of soil back into the pit, and then drive the excavator to the side and stop, then turned off the fire and jumped down and returned to the office.
Azan Hongban walked into the office, Lao Xie followed closely with his short legs, and the workers also ran over. Boss Long wore a mask and stood dumbfounded, Azan Hongban chanted a witch spell and raised the witch knife, Boss Long suddenly screamed, covered his face with his hands, and struggled on the ground in pain.
Lao Xie instructed the workers to hold Boss Long down, and Azanhongban took off the mask, and everyone was terrified. Boss Long's face was covered in blood, and he didn't know where it came from.
The police were then called, and the police arrived to take pictures of the scene and the body before transporting them back to the police station for autopsy. Later, I learned that the body that was dug up by Boss Long was a worker surnamed Jiang, whose labor contract with Boss Long had expired, and he wanted to return to China to work in Guangzhou, but he never got his salary, and asked Boss Long for money every day. Nearly two months ago, Lao Jiang didn't even have his luggage, and Boss Long said that he couldn't wait, and he had already returned to China to change places to work. Because Lao Jiang is an old bachelor, no one inquired about his whereabouts, and everyone didn't care.
After Boss Long regained consciousness, he confessed, and that evening, all the workers were called by the Ubon Ratchathani Labor Bureau for a physical examination, and only Lao Jiang hid because of lung disease. Because his contract had expired, the Labor Department had not looked for it. Lao Jiang came to Boss Long's office and said that he would not finish with him if he didn't give money tonight. The two quarreled, and Boss Long drank a little stuffy wine, and he was in a bad mood, so he made a move. Lao Jiang is tall and big, and he beat Boss Long with a few punches to the point of nosebleeds, and Boss Long picked up the ashtray on the desk and smashed it on Lao Jiang's temple, killing him.
He was glad that the workers were not at home, so he hurriedly went out to drive an excavator to dig a big pit in the crack of the foundation, threw Lao Jiang into it with his luggage, and then buried it, and he couldn't see anything from the outside. When the workers heard that Lao Jiang had returned to China, they did not suspect it.
The police took everyone back to the police station to investigate, and heard from the workers that it was a Chinese brand dealer and a master Azan who came to Thailand from Yunnan to cast an exorcism spell to let the dragon boss be possessed by the yin spirit, and the police did not say anything. The whole Thai people believe in Buddhism, and they are convinced of these ghosts, ghosts, and gods, and they don't want to make a noise, so they put Lao Xie and Azan Hongban back to Khon Kaen.
Lao Xie still remembers how he cried loudly when Boss Long found out that he had been arrested. He said that there are still four-year-old children in his hometown in Jiangsu, and what can he do in the future. Lao Xie was very sympathetic, not sympathetic to Boss Long, but sympathetic to his family. Fortunately, he had more eyes at the beginning and asked for the full amount of 50,000 baht, otherwise he would have lost a lot.
Although the police were very low-key, Lao Xie still stabbed the newspaper and published it as news, and also provided the newspaper with a photo of him and Azanhongban, of course Lao Xie would not let go of such a good free advertising opportunity. Azanhongban's fame has greatly increased, and more people have come to him to cast spells and ask for cards and exorcise evil spirits.
In this way, Lao Xie began to collect a lot of yin materials and provided a lot of raw materials for Azan Hongban, who combined Miao witchcraft with ancient Burmese witchcraft, and the effect was not bad. Because of the limited types of spells, Azan Hongban can only bless Buddhist cards that have the ability to ward off evil spirits and keep peace, and the kind of locking hearts, making windfalls and prosperous peach blossoms, etc., have no effect, unless they continue to learn new spells.
With the effect of the old boss incident, in order to broaden the scope of business, Lao Xie asked Azan Hongban to try to do some rituals to exorcise ghosts and evil spirits for good believers, similar to the kind of Lushi empowerment, and the fee is not much, 2,000 baht each time. In order to test the effect, Azanhongban proposed that the experiment could be done on Lao Xie first. Do you have a younger brother?
Lao Xie was a little scared: "This kind of exorcism won't have any effect on me, right?" β
Azanhongban only said three words: "I can't die." Lao Xie was suddenly speechless, he knew Azanhongban, this can't die means no harm, not that he can't die and suffer from sin.
Lao Xie and Azanhongban sat cross-legged across from each other, and Azanhongban put on his mask and began to chant another incantation. Previously, according to Azan Hongban, this is a spell used by the Miao people to perform the ritual of Nushu, and in addition to being able to communicate with the gods, they also have the ability to talk to the ghosts of the Yin spirits. In addition, there are several texts in Burmese spiritualism, which can not only play the role of the gods to drink, but also drive away evil spirits.
When Azanhongban cast the spell for two or three minutes, Lao Xie suddenly started crying, and then he simply covered his face, fell to the ground and cried while pounding the ground, so sad that he couldn't do it, and it slowly stopped after a few minutes. Later, Azanhongban asked Lao Xie how he felt, and Lao Xie said: "It's not good to say, I just remembered a lot of troubles, the more I thought about it, the more sad I became, and after crying, the whole person was much more comfortable!" β
Azanhongban said that this shows that Lao Xie does not have much karma accumulated in his body, so there is no special reaction. But after more than half a year, Lao Xie did another exorcism ritual here in Azanhongban, and his performance was different, of course, that was later.
