Chapter 4 Look at the three points of the wood
Time passed unhurriedly, and in 1983, Onijiu went to the town's junior high school. In the past few years, I have often traveled with my uncle in the "rivers and lakes", although the starting point is just to mix some delicious food, but I have also witnessed many strange things from my uncle, and Onijiu has always defined these as superstitions. Especially after going to junior high school, he was exposed to chemistry, physics and other subjects, and he gradually rejected his uncle's business, and the living conditions at home improved, so he went out with his uncle less often. But his uncle has said many times that he will accept the ghost as a disciple for a long time and inherit his skills. He also said that in the future, the feng shui industry will develop greatly, and it will be no worse than going to college. The ghost didn't believe it for a long time, and the trick of pretending to be a ghost is still compared to going to college, which sounds funny.
The uncle also saw Onijiu's attitude, but he didn't care, but intentionally or unintentionally incorporated some feng shui expertise in the process of joking with Ogyu. Onijiu also went in and out of his left ear and out of his right ear, and he never took it seriously.
What made Onijiu change his opinion of his uncle was that he actually saved the life of the English teacher at Onijiu Middle School, and it was from then on that Onijiu began to systematically learn physiognomy and feng shui with his uncle.
On July 24, 1984, when the town was cleaning the ditches on both sides of the road, a decomposing female corpse was dug up, and many people covered their noses to watch.
"This woman's yin qi is too heavy, and the whole person will be ruined on the water," the uncle's voice came from beside him.
Onijiu followed his uncle's eyes, hey, isn't that an English teacher!
"Uncle, do you mean her?" The ghost asked his uncle puzzled for a long time.
Uncle nodded: "That's right, it's her, she won't live to the end of the year"
Oniku was a little frightened because his uncle didn't talk about other people's lifespans easily. Although Onijiu has always positioned his uncle at the level of feudal superstition, over the years with his uncle, his uncle has indeed done two things that make Onijiu admire and even more incomprehensible.
In the autumn of 1980, when he went out to a neighboring village, his uncle concluded that the deceased's younger brother was terminally ill. At that time, the younger brother of the deceased came back from the provincial capital to mourn his brother, and he was in very good health. Because of his uncle's words, the deceased's younger brother almost beat his uncle. However, within 8 months, the daughter-in-law of the deceased from a neighboring village came to visit a relative's house in this village and confirmed that her brother-in-law had a brain tumor and was at an advanced stage.
In the summer of May 1978, a villager surnamed Wang fell from an ox cart and broke his legs due to the wheel, and the hospital amputated his limbs, and diagnosed that the wound would heal completely in six months. One day, the family of a villager surnamed Wang pushed him to bask in the sun on the side of the road, and his uncle happened to see him and dragged his family aside and said that he would not survive the winter. As a result, before the month of Layue, the villager surnamed Wang suddenly fell ill and was sent to the hospital, and the doctor asked him to prepare for the future. It is said that the wound is infected with some rare germs, which have eroded the blood of the whole body, and there is no cure.
Because Onijiu has positioned his uncle in feudal superstition since he was a child, his uncle's judgment is only right when his uncle is right. However, Onijiu still secretly admired his uncle's ability to meet a dead mouse. Think about how beautiful it would be if there was an uncle when the ghost was doing multiple-choice questions.
But what my uncle said this time was about the English teacher that Onijiu preferred, and Ogiyasu was still shocked, and his uncle's crow mouth should not be revealed, and Onijiu remembered the "Amitabha" that his neighbor Grandma Liu often hung on his lips.
The uncle didn't react to Kiku's surprised expression. Then he said with great confidence: "She has a twin water misfortune between her eyebrows, a mole on her throat, a knife and a gun, a water disaster, a sharp chin but no flesh and green silk qi surrounds her for the water disaster of the pavilion, and the black mole on her mouth is sealed for the water gate, each of which has the appearance of water misfortune, not to mention that she accounts for four items, and she will definitely die on the water in the future."
Ghost Jiu was attracted by his uncle's analysis, except for the green silk qi surrounding the other ghosts, he could match the number, as for the look, the ghost had not been professionally practiced for a long time, and he couldn't see it at all.
Ghost long's English teacher is recognized as a beautiful teacher in the school, an intern from a big city, 22 years old this year, fashionable and cheerful, well-behaved and lovely, although the nose is a little adducted hook, but it does not belong to the ugly type, to the point of the melon seed face and chin is very chic, the twin eyebrows increase her charm, and the small mole on the mouth adds to her playful cuteness, in the eyes of her classmates, she completely belongs to the type of beauty.
It's summer vacation, she's not at school, and she's dressed more fashionably, which looks very eye-catching in this rural town, but it also shows her youthful vigor even more.
Unexpectedly, what Oni Jiu saw was the surface, but his uncle looked at the problem from another angle.
Ghost Jiu pulled his uncle to walk a few steps quickly and shouted, "Teacher Sun"
The English teacher looked back and saw that it was Onijiu, and said with a smile, "Xiao Jiu"
Looking at the teacher up close, I really can't see any discomfort other than beauty. Ghost Jiu's English score is the best in the class, and Teacher Sun pays special attention to Ghost Jiu, so he naturally speaks very kindly.
Uncle took the initiative to reach out his hand: "Hello, I'm Xiao Jiu's uncle, it's nice to meet you"
Teacher Sun glanced at his uncle, and then looked back at the ghost. Onijiu nodded hurriedly: "thisismyunclefrommymother'sside." At the same time, he pointed to Mr. Sun and introduced to his uncle: "This is our English teacher"
Teacher Sun stretched out his right hand and shook it politely with his uncle. I didn't forget to praise the ghost for a long time: "Xiao Jiu's English has progressed so fast, and he has learned to translate like this."
Oniku scratched his head embarrassedly.
Teacher Sun said that she was going to participate in a performance, got in the car and left, and Onijiu never said his uncle's judgment, because Onijiu was not sure if his uncle was really right again this time. So I went back and asked my uncle to explain it well.
The uncle continued: "It is said that she will be destroyed in the water, not only because of the flood, but also because of the symptoms on her body, when she shook hands with me just now, her hands had obvious large particles of convex and concave feeling, and I observed that her hands were blue, which is a sign of liver disease, she dressed fashionably, her shoulders were leaking and her navel was exposed, and there were a few faint green tendons on her stomach that crossed the navel, which was obviously a symptom of liver ascites."
Hearing my uncle say this, Ghost Jiu was slightly surprised, liver ascites, that is the advanced stage of liver cirrhosis! Onijiu couldn't help but sweat for her.
The uncle didn't stop: "Do you notice the involuntary, rhythmic horizontal movement of her eyeballs from side to side?" ”
Ghost Jiu replied: "Uncle, our teacher's eyes are like this, his eyes are good, he is very good-looking, is there any problem?" ”。
Uncle shook his head: "Xiao Jiu, you have to learn to observe people in the future, don't be confused by appearance, you have to find problems from the details of a person's behavior, have you noticed, didn't you cover your nose stinky when the corpse truck passed by just now?" Have you noticed her? Onijiu suddenly remembered that she really didn't cover her nose just now.
The uncle continued: "Xiao Jiu, let me tell you, she didn't smell the corpse at all."
The ghost couldn't help but be surprised, how could it be?
The uncle continued: "When she shook hands with me, I saw that her fingernails were very triangular shape, which is a sign of hydrocephalus, of course, it is not arbitrary, and it cannot be judged by this, but 70% of people with hydrocephalus will have nystagmus, olfactory disorders, and she shows both, so I concluded that she has hydrocephalus."
I somewhat agree with my uncle's analysis, after all, it is the result of scientific analysis.
The uncle then said, "Moreover, the average hook-nosed person will be down-and-out and ruined in middle age, this girl's hook-nose with peach blossom eyes, this is called "Peach Blossom Eagle", and the downfall will be advanced, so according to her current age, I can also conclude that she is now in a down-to-earth period, and even is experiencing family decline. ”
I am skeptical about the "Peach Blossom Eagle" mentioned by my uncle, because it is unscientific and needs to be verified later. But the uncle's analysis of the teacher's illness really made Onijiu admire.
Uncle is obviously teaching Onijiu so that Onijiu can become interested in physiognomy and then inherit his lineage. The ghost didn't really take this thing seriously a long time ago.,I always thought it was a street god stick fortune-telling thing to confuse people.。 Today, through the analysis of the teacher, Uncle Onijiu has completely changed his previous views. I didn't expect my uncle's interpretation of the face to be so fascinating. A young girl, Oni Jiu saw chic, beautiful, fashionable and elegant. But in the eyes of his uncle, he is a person with water misfortune, liver ascites, hydrocephalus, and a depressed life. How can the gap between people be so big!
The uncle looked at the ghost for a long time, and then said: "I just picked out the superficial phenomenon that you can probably understand, in fact, there is a simpler way to look at the appearance, that is, "the appearance of qi and the phase", to say simple does not mean that it is easy to learn, it depends on the individual's talent, you have this talent, and you will become a wizard of the appearance in the future."
Ghost Jiu is not very interested in whether he is a genius or not, and now he cares about whether what his uncle says is reliable.
Tentatively asked his uncle: "Uncle, can she still be saved?" ”
The uncle thought for a moment and said, "Actually, have you noticed that all her misfortunes involve the word "water"? ”
The ghost thought about it for a long time, yes, water misfortune, liver ascites, hydrocephalus, all have water words, although there is no water word, it is caused by "Peach Blossom Eagle", and the peach blossom eyes are most obviously watery in the eyes, which is not also related to water. The uncle gave an answer that made the ghost breathe a sigh of relief: "Wuling scatters the way, the disguise technique assists, and the yin corpse attacks the poison, all three of which can be cured by using them." ”
"Uncle, I don't understand your terminology, what Wuling San, disguise technique, Yin corpse ground, make it like a zombie movie?"
The uncle saw that the ghost had been interested in these for a long time, and deliberately "coughed" and cleared his throat, obviously having a little confidence in being able to accept the ghost for a long time, and actually came to the spirit: "Okay, let's talk about Wuling San, this is a traditional Chinese medicine for dampness and diarrhea, Zhang Zhongjing of the Eastern Han Dynasty said in the book "Treatise on Typhoid Fever": 'Sun disease chapter water storage evidence sun disease, after sweating, sweating, stomach dryness, irritability and sleepless, those who want to drink water, less and drink it, so that the stomach is healed. If the pulse is floating, the urine is not good, the heat is slightly hot, and the thirst is quenched. Sweating, pulse floating, polydipsia, five Ling scattered the Lord. Stroke fever, six or seven days of incomprehension and annoyance, there is a sign of the inside and outside, thirsty to drink, water into the vomit, the name of the water is reversed, Wuling dispersed. It is composed of 18 baht peeled from Zhu Ling, 12 or 6 plants of Ze Yuan, 18 baht of Atractylodes macrocephalus, 18 baht of Poria cocos, and half two peeled cinnamon branches. Correspondingly, there are more than 20 variations according to different symptoms. ”
Uncle paused: "Uncle, there is a change recipe in the family, two things are added to the original recipe, and through an exclusive processing method, the evil water of the human body can be completely removed, and the evil water I am talking about is the water-related things reflected in the face." And the two things I added are called 'solar soil, yellow bezoar' are very rare. ”
Guijiu looked at his uncle in surprise, this is the magic stick in Guijiu's eyes, obviously he is a Chinese medicine practitioner, professor! Ghost Jiu saw that his uncle's eyes flashed even more, and he despised himself deeply in his mind, he really didn't know Taishan, and he was blind, but fortunately, his uncle only regarded himself as a child before, and he didn't care about his disdain for how powerful he was bragging about himself.
Uncle's ability in traditional Chinese medicine is far from being understood within the scope of Ghost Jiu's knowledge, Ghost Jiu first set his uncle in his heart to the category of divine doctors, which can be juxtaposed with Zhang Zhongjing, Li Shizhen, Hua Tuo, they have not had the opportunity to see ghosts for a long time, but Uncle is standing here alive. Ghost Jiu worshiped and waited for his uncle to explain the disguise technique assistance and the Yin corpse ground poison attack, the disguise technique Ghost Jiu had heard of it, it was a god-level ability, and the Yin Ghoul had also heard of it for a long time, but he didn't know much about it. Could it be that my uncle is a divine uncle who integrates a divine doctor, a god martial arts master, and a divine mage! Uncle explained to Oni Jiu the next disguise technique, but the Yin Corpse Poison attack poison is not quite the same as Oni Jiu imagined, "Uncle, I heard that the sick abdomen of liver ascites is bulging, but look at the teacher's abdomen is not bulging" Oni Jiu raised his doubts.
Uncle stretched out his thumb: It is worthy of praise, I have learned to observe the ghost for a long time, there is no smugness, and I can see things at a glance, and I praise me for observing! It's obviously just coaxing me. The uncle also seemed to realize the exaggeration of his words, and scratched his head with his hand, but the uncle was a person who had seen the world, and his face was silent: "Xiao Jiu, this is the problem, it is strange that the liver and ascites do not bulge in the stomach." If the water does not gather in the abdomen, it will spread to all the cells of the body, and the water in the abdomen can be withdrawn, and how the water of the cells is pumped out, this is called (ascites reflux), which will increase the pressure on the cells of the whole body, and this strange reflux of ascites will cause water deformation according to my medical book. ”
The ghost asked puzzled for a long time: "How can water be deformed, water molecules are still water molecules after vaporization, can water molecules become water atoms, which does not conform to the laws of physics and chemistry?" ”
Uncle shook his head: "Water is still a molecule, it will not become atoms, and it cannot become atoms, unless it is decomposed into hydrogen and oxygen." I didn't go to college, so I didn't understand the principles too deeply. However, according to my medical book, this water gradually melts the muscle fibers, and pushes the melted muscle fibers out of the body through the blood vessels and then through the epidermal pores, while paralyzing the nerve pain response. The backflow water forcibly occupies the vacated space, so it will not cause edema, so that the doctor can not see the skin ** changes in the early stage, but shows that the skin is surprisingly delicate and beautiful. However, after a long time, the whole body will ulcerate, the whole body will seep water, and the patient will be miserable. ”
Onijiu suddenly realized, no wonder he saw that the skin on her face and other places was so good, it turned out to be ascites reflux. At that time, I also admired her 'delicate and tender' skin, but I didn't expect it to be like a return to the light when a person is dying.
As for using scientific knowledge to explain, Ghost Jiu thought that modern medicine had not yet reached that level, let alone blind analysis.
"'Ascites reflux' is not recorded in any medical books on the market, the reason is that this phenomenon is one in a million, and it is difficult to judge, but the handwritten "Hypochondriacal Record" handed down by my ancestors has a record, but only one case is recorded, and it is recorded that one of Yang Guifei's maids has this disease." After listening to his uncle's statement, Ghost Jiu wanted to borrow his uncle's handwritten "Hypochondriacal Record" to see what other strange illnesses were in it.
Next, my uncle didn't let Ghost Jiu participate in the healing process for Teacher Sun. Onijiu didn't know how his uncle explained to Teacher Sun, and how he gained Teacher Sun's trust. In short, Mr. Sun did not die after his uncle's conditioning, and was transferred back to the provincial capital in advance. Later, her father and mother drove a car, brought a lot of gifts to see her uncle, and gave her uncle a big red envelope before leaving. Uncle didn't shirk and accepted it.
The uncle's explanation to the ghost is that they will feel more at ease this way. That big red envelope is 10,000 yuan! In 1984, what was the concept of 10,000 yuan, and the monthly salary of teachers in the town was only 69 yuan. My uncle suddenly became a 10,000-yuan household, and there are no tens of thousands of households in the entire Liuhe Town! My uncle's statement to Mr. Sun's family was: The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, not to mention that they have eased up again.
Onijiu didn't know if it was his uncle who helped their family come up with some ideas, or if it happened that their family was lucky during this period. But the 10,000 yuan really confirmed what my uncle said before: learning feng shui is no worse than going to college. 10,000 yuan, according to the salary level at that time, it would take more than ten years to earn it! Onijiu decided to learn feng shui and physiognomy with his uncle, which started from this incident, in fact, the biggest reason is that his uncle's ability can save people. From the first time his uncle saved Ghost Jiu's partner Wang Si, who was young and didn't understand, to this time Uncle saved Ghost Jiu's teacher, Ghost Jiu's opinion of his uncle has completely changed.
Looking at the teacher's family's attitude towards his uncle, Ghost Jiu believed that what his uncle said before was true, and Ghost Jiu's outlook on life was also changed by the facts. Since then, the ghost has stepped into the field of magical physiognomy feng shui, and has practiced the level of contemplating qi and breaking the phase, and has also accumulated amazing skills for himself to travel the rivers and lakes in the future.
