Chapter 10: The Way Back
Resentment, an empty and figurative word, Taoists believe that all things have spirituality, let alone people.
From human beings to death, the six realms of reincarnation are originally natural laws, and it is precisely because of some reasons that these natural laws are destroyed that there is resentment.
With evil there is good, slowly in the form of religion began to replace witchcraft, with a systematic variety of spells began to replace the vague jumping gods, religion began to resolve the resentment of the world, trying to make everything return to nature.
Man is the law of the earth, the earth is the law of the sky, the heaven is the law, and the Tao is the nature.
Obedience is natural, adversity is also nature, resentment can harm people but also save people.
Only now did Cha Wenbin understand that this "evil art" was invented
The Jiangxi Taoist priest may not necessarily be an evil person, just like the ancestors invented gunpowder, some people use it to make fireworks, some people use it as a weapon to kill, just look at what the purpose of the person who uses it is.
"Use your blood mixed with her blood as an introduction, and in the future, this thousand souls will remember you, whether it is good or bad, no one knows, your fate will never be separated from her."
This is what the Li Immortal told him, Cha Wenbin gently closed his eyes and quietly felt the dance of his fingertips, and the restlessness of the tip of the pen kept smearing blood on the white cloth back and forth.
After about a cigarette, the pen stopped, and Cha Wenbin slowly opened his eyes, not knowing how to describe the picture.
He later told Lao Xia as follows: "If I had been given another chance to copy it, I would not have been able to draw such a picture again." ”
Later, this picture was taken by Lao Gu to study, and then later, the people of Luomen also came, I heard Hetu tell me about this, he said that you know the "Huayi map" and "Yu trace map" in the Xi'an stele forest?
It is the oldest surviving map of China, and the one that the master saw by chance was inferred to be an earlier map, how early was it?
It is about 2300 years earlier than the "Yu Trace Map", and about 1300 years earlier than the Western Han Dynasty unearthed in Sanxingdui!
I said you are blowing it with me, it is impossible, you have said it, that pen was given to your master by the Jiangxi Taoist priest, he was from the Song Dynasty Huizong, how could he know such an early map?
Hetu squinted his eyes and blushed, his alcohol consumption was indeed not good, he peeled a peanut and said: "If I had understood, I would not have been kicked out of the master so early, I heard the master say that the Three Realms were not separated a long time ago, and there was a road to the Three Realms on the land of Shenzhou." That picture was not painted by the Jiangxi Taoist priest, but a thousand years of anger and resentment opened the door to hell. ”
Cha Wenbin accidentally saw such a picture, some people said it was a treasure map, others said it was a picture of death, and Cha Wenbin called it the gate of hell.
Stepping into the door, life and death are confused, in three days, Cha Wenbin must find a female corpse, now Yuan Xiaobai has entered the door, if he can't complete the next borrowing corpse within three days, everything will be doomed, including himself.
Lao Xia felt uncomfortable, I am afraid that it will not be possible to stay in this house any longer, Cha Wenbin's face was pale, and the whole person looked ghostly, Lao Xia felt that Cha Wenbin in front of him was very unfamiliar, and he felt like a world away.
"Wen Bin, I always feel that this thing is inhumane."
A few days ago, Mr. Yuan found such a woman in his previous trusteeship, and I heard that she had hanged herself emotionally and had been buried for more than a week.
Mr. Yuan had some means, entrusted people, and it is said that he gave a lot of money, and the woman's father was also a greedy man, and he agreed to this matter while kicking the money in his pocket with tears in his eyes.
"The hour is almost up, you put on this sackcloth and go out with me, there is a car waiting outside the house, outsiders can't touch this matter, we have to rely on ourselves."
Saying that, he handed Lao Xia a white linen clothes, which were actually mourning clothes, and although Lao Xia was a little reluctant, he also changed them hard.
Xiaobai's black-and-white photo was also held by Lao Xia, and Cha Wenbin was holding a lantern in the back, humming and sprinkling paper money in his mouth.
"Yin and yang are no taboos, no taboos! Heavenly officials bless, the underworld is healthy! ”
Then there was another bang, just like the ancient beating, walking three steps and roaring.
Lao Xia's face was going to be green, but he didn't know that every handful of paper money that Cha Wenbin threw out was spinning in circles on the ground, and at this moment, there were a bunch of people robbing money in the Yuan family's mansion, Cha Wenbin only felt that the paper money in his hand was going to be robbed at any time, and he didn't know how many hands were grabbing his heels...... Out of the door, a small passenger car has been parked, the license plate is blocked by black gauze, the old housekeeper beckoned the driver all the way to the dust, midnight Shanghai it is like a ghost like a fast shuttle.
The car went all the way to the north, and there was a small fish village at the junction of Shanghai and Jiangsu provinces, and Qidong County was far less developed than it is now.
Stopped at the entrance of the village, the driver flashed the headlights three times, and a flashlight on the opposite side also lit up a few times, which was the signal.
When I got out of the car, there was a dark-skinned man in his forties, full of alcohol, he seemed to blame the car for being late, and he vigorously instructed him to move quietly.
Cha Wenbin understands very well that if this kind of thing spreads, he probably won't have the face to stay in the village.
After passing through a few fields, and through a bamboo forest, there was a small hill behind the bamboo forest, and Cha Wenbin, who was far away at the foot of the mountain, saw the new grave with a wreath in it.
It can be seen that the master's family did not pay much attention to the grave, and the stones and a pile of loess had washed away one-third of the tomb foundation in the rain a few days ago.
The man didn't want to go anymore before he walked to the hill, but stopped, and the old housekeeper was very sensible and took out a red envelope from his pocket and said: "Don't be sad, we will find a place to bury her again, so that she can be overborn, and the money will not be pulled down for three incense candles a year." ”
The man took the red envelope and pretended to cry a few times, turned around and left happily, looking at his back, Lao Xia was so hard that his teeth itched, is this father still not a person?
This kind of new grave is very easy to pull, Cha Wenbin took a pair of incense candles and lit it, half-knelt and said to the grave: "Girl, it's cold here, I'm here to move a nest for you, not to harm you, don't blame your father." ”
These words are nothing more than a peace of mind, and what should be continued must be continued.
A few dogs in the village in the distance were restless in the fields, Cha Wenbin was afraid of disturbing the villagers, and said to Lao Xia: "The hour is almost up, I have to rush back before dawn, this corpse can't see the light, can't see the qi, otherwise it will be broken." ”
With the help of a flashlight, Cha Wenbin squatted down and grabbed a handful of new soil on the top of the tomb and raised his hand and said: "The coffin of the newcomer is raised in front of the tomb, and the Dharma Protector Xuantan is on both sides!" ”
Whoosh two flags were planted on both sides of the tomb, and he turned around and shouted again: "First ask Marshal Zhao of the Black Tiger to raise the whip and cut the pass to keep it safe!" ”
He held a willow branch in his hand and jerked it to the ground, this is called a ghost shock, the lord in the new tomb is basically not formed, and some grievances are not big, in order to get out of the coffin without accidents, he has to give a dismount first.
Then he pulled Lao Xia and the driver to stand on both sides of the grave, one of them holding a shovel in his hand, each shovel had a red rope on it, and two copper coins were tied to the rope and wrapped around the handle of the shovel, and he shouted: "The door god guards are divided into left and right, and the treasure coffin is guarded by twenty-eight nights; This is not a place to rest, the dead will come with me! Taishang Laojun is as anxious as a law, and he raises the ground! ”
This long list, Cha Wenbin is done in one go, this is the spiritual mantra of the Heavenly Righteous Dao, which must be used when moving graves, with a little colloquial language and localization.
When the two of them heard him shouting, they dug down with all their might, originally thinking that it would be very deep, and they didn't want this family to be really stingy, so it was only two minutes to reach the low.
The coffin didn't even have time to paint, it was roughly nailed with the scrap board of the sawmill, Lao Xia also made a hole in a shovel, thanks to Cha Wenbin covered it with a black cloth, and several people tiptoed to use hemp rope to make the coffin.
Cha Wenbin pasted a corpse suppression talisman on the head of the coffin, hurriedly restored the scene, and the group carried the coffin to the car in the night.
This car was originally a hearse for a coffin, and behind it was a sealed metal box, in front of which a person could sit, and when the coffin was placed in the box, the car began to start.
After tossing all night, Lao Xia was really sleepy, and Cha Wenbin was almost tired to the limit, staggering, and the two of them wanted to sleep.
Wearing clothes, the car is quite warm, and the driver also receives benefits, he rarely participates in this kind of thing, so he accosted the housekeeper sitting next to him: "You guys are pulling home with the ghost, right?" ”
The old butler was tight-lipped and replied with some posture: "Don't ask, what should be given to you will be given to you." ”
The driver nodded frequently and said, "I know, I know, this kind of thing is generally not allowed to talk nonsense." ”
The car drove fast all the way, this driver used to be a driver in the army, and after he was discharged from the army, he asked the funeral home to work as a hearse driver.
Don't underestimate this stall business, run back and forth every morning, don't have to go to work in the afternoon, in addition to the salary, the owner will give an extra red envelope, and the small life is also comfortable.
A few days ago, someone asked him to do a business, and the price he gave was three years' salary, saying that he was going to Jiangsu to do some dirt work.
Anyway, this oil money is public, and it doesn't delay work, and the recommended person has a big face, and he works more in one fell swoop, so he thinks about going home in the afternoon and weighing a few catties of meat to buy some wine as a reward.
There was not a single car on the highway in the middle of the night, and he stepped on the accelerator to the end, and he was very relieved about his driving skills.
He smoked a cigarette in his mouth and said to the old butler: "After the tunnel in front, you will arrive in Shanghai, and there will be time." ”
"Squeak......
A series of violent brake sounds streaked across the night sky, and Lao Xia only felt like he had been thrown out like a rag, and hit the back of the seat again.
"Knock"
With a bang, there was a crash in the back compartment, and Cha Wenbin was rubbing the big bag on his head at this time and asked, "What the hell!" ”
I heard the driver stammer, "Yes...... There's a guy who's like I've bumped into someone......"
