I went to see the Jinghui Temple in 2014 when it was rebuilt, but many people said that the temple has not restored its former glory, and the rebuilt temple cannot be compared with the past in terms of area and scale, not to mention the exquisite Buddha carvings and classics that have long been turned into dust.

There is a vacant lot in front of the newly built hall, listen to the people of the older generation, there was originally a pagoda here, six sides are exquisite, the tower is nine layers high, the top is covered with golden glazed tiles, each layer is a hollow flower carving, there are many copper bells hanging on the corner, when the wind blows, it jingles and rings, it is good-looking.

The Spring Festival of 1984 was destined to be an uneasy year for Cha Wenbin, and it was beyond his expectation that there were more lonely ghosts in the town all of a sudden.

Around that time, many people had gradually lost their faith, and with it, religion was in jeopardy in this place.

In a way, the existence of religion gives those who die the possibility of transcendence, and the result of this loss is that those who cannot be reincarnated will suffer from this yin and yang torment for eternity.

This may also be why the number of ghosts in that era was frequent, and after the mid-90s, it gradually began to decrease.

After going down the mountain, the Liu family specially prepared a big red envelope, and although they shirked it in every possible way, they finally accepted it.

Speaking of affection, Cha Wenbin's help in the first month of the year is already a great favor, and it is reasonable to say that Taoist priests need to consume a lot of materials to do white things, but these things are also bought by him with real money, so he also accepted them in a very embarrassed situation.

This is Cha Wenbin's first income as a Taoist, the fat man was very happy, and bought a few taels of wine that day, he said that Cha Wenbin is civilized, even if it is a fairy, it is not necessarily a cannibalistic fireworks.

In those days, the reputation of a Taoist priest named Cha Wenbin in Wulipu began to spread in the town.

In our place, there are always fewer Taoist temples than temples, in fact, it is the same now, Buddhist temples have been built one after another, and even the mountain behind our community now has a huge temple with nine major halls.

But it is really difficult for you to find a Taoist temple to worship the ancestor of Sanqing this year, and the fat man suggested that Cha Wenbin should simply cultivate a Taoist temple, firstly, this can be regarded as a fame for their naïve Dao, and secondly, he plans to make a living for Cha Wenbin.

The matter of Huang Chenggong was not over yet, and Cha Wenbin thought that since there were many souls here who needed to be exceeded, and the fat man's proposal was reasonable, he planned to end the matter and discuss the construction of a Taoist temple afterwards.

As the saying goes, a monk can't run the temple if he runs, although Huang Chenggong has been wandering outside all these years, his home always falls in the town.

The fat man has not been idle these days, he has been quietly inquiring among the guests, and he also has a group of fox friends and dog friends who have made friends here, and the ears and eyes are all over the town.

Soon he had news that Huang Chenggong had returned to his mother-in-law's house the night before Mr. Liu's funeral, picked up the family, and someone met his family at the station, and the ticket was to go to a county in Anhui Province next door, named Guangde.

After inquiry, Huang Chenggong opened a pork stall in Guangde County in order to make a living after he was released from prison, and he is usually low-key, but there are many relatives and friends in these two counties, and some people in the town have seen him in person and said hello.

I heard that this time he was planning to move his family back, and he was caught by the fat man that day and night, thinking that it was still the former enemy to report, so frightened that he hid in the mountains for several days and was hungry with snow water, and then heard the firecrackers under the mountain and knew that there was a funeral to happen, so he dared to run home while there were many people.

And Ma Wenjun's whereabouts have been unknown since he ran away on the 28th of the lunar month, Ma Lao'er's wound is not good, it is not bad, at least now he is out of danger of his life and can speak.

During this period, Cha Wenbin saw him once in the past, and reopened another prescription, and the Ma family, which had been financially prosperous, gradually became a little more angry.

There are a few things in front of them now: the first is Wu Banxian who ran away, this guy is still missing, and the fat man is still recruiting people to inquire, after all, his friends are all from the countryside and the countryside, and it will take some time to inquire about the news in the city.

The second thing is the thing that tore off the sheep that night in the back mountain, Cha Wenbin meant to hold the troops first, and Hongcun has not heard of any chaos in the past few days, and the heavy snow has been falling, and the snow on the mountain is now almost up to the waist of the person in the deepest part.

Even if there was a zombie or something that could come out and wander around, they were stuck in a snow nest, and they couldn't go up the mountain themselves, so they had to wait until the weather improved.

The third thing is to find Huang Chenggong, in fact, these three things seem to be unrelated but related, and all their final points are to Ma Wenjun's bizarre death.

Cha Wenbin decided to come one by one, and whichever one could be solved first.

According to the general rules, after the fifth day of the first month, the small merchants and vendors will also open, and Cha Wenbin decided to find Huang Chenggong.

On the morning of the first day of the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, the heavy snow was still scattering, and the road was very narrow at that time, and there were many people visiting relatives and friends, and they had to work to clear the snow from house to house.

Even so, I can not reach the upper.

The three men each had a pair of high-top rubber shoes, and their toes were so cold that they were curling in them, because the wind and snow were heavy, and the bus was stopped, so the three of them could only rely on walking.

To say that this kind of unprofitable business fat man complains a lot, but he also transferred that resentment to Huang Chenggong, and cursed that guy for not dying well all the way.

It took more than 40 miles to go from Wulipu to the county seat next door, and the three men were one foot deep on the left and one shallow on the right, so they arrived at the county seat before dark.

But the tragedy came, there were no restaurants open and no hotels to stay in, and they were about to freeze to death on the road in this unfamiliar place.

Fortunately, the fat man has thick skin, and the people in that place are also very hospitable, so he found a family with a big yard to spend the night.

After drinking the hot soup and the brazier burning, the box naturally opened, and the fat man took the opportunity to inquire with him about Huang Chenggong, and the man from the family who didn't want to be coincidental said: "Huang Chenggong, the shop opposite my house is his, and the family of three lives behind the shop." ”

There is a way to step on the iron shoes and find nowhere to go, it takes no effort to get it, the fat man secretly rejoices, and while he goes out to pee, he specially looks at the window on the shop and the light is indeed on, which means that the person is inside, that is, he has not run.

In the second half of the night, the fat man left some money at the head of the bed, and the three of them began to tiptoe to prepare for action.

This kind of wooden door with an inverted board at the back can be pried open with only an iron sheet.

Passing through a cloth curtain behind the shop, there was someone snoring inside, the fat man casually turned on the flashlight and stretched out his tongue to shine on his face, and then lay on the head of Huang Chenggong and said quietly: "Guess who I am......"

Huang Chenggong slept Zhengxiang, and suddenly woke up and saw a grimace, the guy screamed in fright, and the fat man hurriedly covered it, but Rao still alarmed his mother-in-law upstairs.

When the woman went downstairs and saw that her man was being pressed, she hurriedly rushed to the street and opened her voice and shouted, "Help! Robbery! ”

This girl's voice was so loud that the guy suddenly exploded a street, the voice was louder than his mother's thunder, and after a while, the sound of dogs barking began to come one after another, in the end, there were many neighbors on the street, and when the fat man just went out to explore the wind, there were already many people standing on the street, and he was so frightened that he quickly tied the door from the back room.

Fortunately, there is a back door in this house, that Huang Chenggong is only wearing a set of close-fitting clothes, Ye Qiu grabbed his hair and dragged him out of the snow for more than a mile, those neighbors are still discussing how to break the door and scold, in fact, the four of them have already come to a small road behind the street.

The fat man stretched out his slap and gently patted Huang Chenggong, who was already frightened, and said, "Do you know why I arrested you?" ”

Huang Chenggong saw that he was the fat man who caught himself that day, and immediately nodded his head and said: "I gamble, comrade, I am guilty......"

"Don't talk about that useless for Lao Tzu,"

The fat man held a flashlight and held his eyes and said, "Let me ask you, did you speculate on the Liu family's mansion during the Cultural Revolution and stole a lot of things?" ”

"No ......"

As soon as he said nothing, the fat man went up and slapped him: "Say it again?" ”

"There is ......"

Huang Chenggong was already crying at this time, and said while humming: "The government and the people have already tried me, and I have also reformed well, comrades, are you mistaken......

"That's the government trying you, I haven't tried yet!"

The fat man is still going to fight, Cha Wenbin can come out and sing red face at this time, he said: "Was there a batch of ancient books and recipes that were fried by you back then, and where are the whereabouts of those books?" ”

"Books?"

Huang Chenggong was stunned and said, "It should have been burned......

When the fat man heard that he was burned, he went up and slapped him again: "I let you should, I let you burn ......"

The ground was full of snow, Huang Chenggong curled up in the snow and was beaten by the fat man like this and didn't dare to shout loudly, the situation was indeed very miserable, and begged for mercy: "It's not burned, it's not burned!" ”

"Fuck, did it burn?"

At that time, the Red Guards raided the house basically by smashing and looting, most of the fried things were destroyed publicly, and some of the fine products were scraped by these people in private, but they were all mixed in by some shrewd minds.

And people like Huang Chenggong belong to this category, and he did loot a lot of things in the name of raiding his family, but most of them were confiscated after the end of the movement, and that batch of books was an exception.

He began to recall the whole thing under the obscenity of the fat man, and later they learned that the attack on the Liu family was a conspiracy that was originally designed, but it was just under the guise of movement......
