The old lady is talking about a lifetime of cornering, not the road under her feet, but the road of her heart.

Legend has it that He Wulu was appointed to report to the heavenly court, and the Jade Emperor enshrined him as the god of the road according to the name of "He Wulu", and was in charge of the five roads in the east, south, west, north and middle of the world. At that time, all the gods laughed and said, "Do you still need to manage the road of the world?" People in the world, there is no way to create, not open, not to go, who listens to you? At this time, Guanyin Bodhisattva came and said: "People have hearts, those who have hearts, there is a road in their hearts (He Wulu) to have a way, there is no road in their hearts (He Wulu), and there is no way out." "How many people hang themselves and throw themselves into the river every moment because they have no way out in their hearts...... Fu Road, Lu Road, Shou Road, Xi Road, and Cai Road, connecting Fu Yuan, Lu Yuan, Shou Yuan, Xi Yuan, and Cai Yuan, are they not passable? Since then, He Wulu has been in charge of the five roads of the east, south, west, north and middle of the world.

I took a step forward and said, "Old lady, can you move to another place and let us borrow a way?" ”

The old lady looked at me and said, "There is no way, only a dead end." With that, she threw out a straw rope at her feet.

Where would I not know, I have encountered a roadblock ghost today, and the so-called yin ghost is blocking the way, and the yang people should not approach. It seems that this hanged ghost doesn't want us to fight here, and if we want to pass, we can do it, and then we have to hang ourselves and force people to go to a dead end.

Seeing that the other party refused to give way, I took a step forward and shouted: "People have hearts, and those who have hearts naturally have a way in their hearts." ”

What I'm talking about is what Guanyin Bodhisattva said, tell the other party, don't bother, we don't have anything we can't think of, and it's impossible to go to a dead end and be a hanged ghost with you.

The old lady glared at me angrily and said angrily: "What if there is a road in my heart, how can I meet my way when I have a road in my heart?" Isn't there no way out now? ”

The old lady is right, although we have eyes in our hearts, there is no way out now.

I said, "Yang people borrow the road, why bother Yin people." What do you mean, old lady? ”

For a while, I really didn't understand what this old lady was trying to do, first, she just stopped us, and second, she didn't mean to ask for our lives.

The old lady didn't laugh angrily at this time, laughed twice, and then said: "The big mountain is difficult to climb, and the uninhabited village is sad, how can you two Yang people live?" ”

I was stunned for a moment, and I didn't know what she meant for a while. I asked her, "Old lady, what do you mean by that?" ”

The old lady sighed, as if she was very lost, and said, "How can you know the right way if you know the way in your heart but you don't know your heart?" It's better not to go the wrong way, alas, it's a pity! ”

I understood this, what she meant was that although I had a way in my heart and knew the way, I didn't know people's hearts, and the road I saw was not the right way, but the wrong way. Obviously, she was telling me that I didn't know the good people's hearts, and the reason why they stopped me from going the wrong way was because she didn't want me to go the wrong way.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but be a little surprised, did this roadblock ghost actually help me and come out to remind me of something?

Immediately, I asked, "Old lady, what do you mean by this, could it be that we are going the wrong way?" ”

The old lady said coldly, "It's a pity for my kindness." With that, she took back the straw rope that had been thrown at my feet, as if to blame us for not knowing her kindness.

Now I was even more puzzled, thinking what the hell this old lady was trying to tell us? At this time, the old lady also got up, with a cane, a set of white clothes and a set of black clothes under her buttocks, and picked up these two cloth clothes as if she was leaving, while muttering to herself: "The big mountain is difficult to climb, and the uninhabited village is sad, how can you two Yang people live?" ”

I stared at the old lady and wondered if she was planning to leave.

Just when I was curious, Chen Xingyong on the side suddenly touched my arm and squeaked, "Sir, no ...... The human village, the uninhabited village that the old lady said is the village in front. ”

As soon as I heard this, I instantly seemed to understand something, and immediately asked Chen Xingyong, what is this uninhabited village?

Chen Xingyong said: "The uninhabited village is an old village where the whole village is dead, there was a plague before liberation, and all the old and young in the village died without a single left, so we have to pass through the uninhabited village when we go to Liujia Village." ”

Hearing this, I understood, no wonder the old lady kept muttering something, "The big mountain is difficult to climb, and the uninhabited village is sad, how can you two Yang people live?" It turned out to be a reminder that there will be trouble in the uninhabited village ahead.

Thinking of this, I immediately shouted to the old lady who was ready to leave: "Seniors go slowly, the kid doesn't know the kindness of the seniors, and the kid apologizes here." ”

When the old lady heard me shout, she turned around, smiled, and said, "That's it, if you understand." ”

Hearing him say this, I didn't understand in my heart, what she meant was that the uninhabited village in front of me would be difficult to pass. Thinking of this, I suddenly felt a strong sense of worry, and I didn't know what would be in front of me, otherwise the old lady would not have come to remind me, so I asked, "I wonder if there is a murderous spirit in the uninhabited village in front of me, or is it evil?" ”

The old lady said, "There are so many evil spirits, tuberculosis and plague often stand in the way, and there is no way forward, and it is impossible to escape all the way." ”

Now I was taken aback, the old lady meant that there were so many fierce spirits and evil ghosts in front of me, and it was difficult to escape along the way.

I was a little worried, "What should I do?" Why don't you wait here for dawn? ”

The old lady said, "No man's village is so close that it will not be allowed until dawn." I knew that there was a corpse early in the morning, and the lonely souls and wild ghosts were all returned to the sun. ”

What the old lady meant was that this place was very close to the uninhabited village, and even if they didn't move forward, they would summon the ghosts of the village, because they knew early on that there was a corpse passing by here, and those ghosts were waiting to snatch the corpse and return it.

Hearing this, my brow furrowed, and then the old lady continued: "This is a good thing, you can take it later, it will be useful." The ghost walks the yin and yang road, regardless of the yin and yang roads, there is no end everywhere. With that, he handed over the straw rope in his hand and the two sets of white and black clothes.

I hurriedly stepped forward to take the straw rope and clothes, and kept thanking me: "Thank you, senior, I don't know which way the predecessor is?" ”

Yes, I am very curious about who this old lady in front of me is, and why she came out to remind us that if she was really a hanged man, her heart was full of resentment, and she would be lucky if she didn't ask for our lives, let alone save us.

The old lady suddenly covered her mouth and laughed, and said, "Old man, I am not a fairy, in short, be careful all the way here, and you will naturally know who I am in the future." ”

After saying that, the old lady floated towards the hill, and disappeared in a blink of an eye. However, in the place where the old lady disappeared, in the moonlight, I could clearly see a short lonely soul, and perhaps that was the place of her mansion!

Seeing that the old lady left, Chen Xingyong excitedly asked me, is that a ghost or a fairy Bodhisattva just now?

I said, "It doesn't matter if she's a bodhisattva or a ghost, as long as she has good intentions, she's a bodhisattva." ”

"Then we really met the Bodhisattva on the road just now?" Chen Xingyong swept away his fear, and looked a little excited when he thought that he had met the Bodhisattva. Perhaps for ordinary people, ghosts are terrible, but bodhisattvas are compassionate.

I won't break it, it's better to be grateful than to be afraid! At the same time, I also thought in my heart that if I could arrive safely this time, I would get some paper money to be burned in front of her grave, and I couldn't let the family help me.

Chen Xingyong also noticed the straw rope and clothes in my hand at this time, and was very curious, and asked, "Sir, what are these things for?" ”

"The old lady gave us the line." I glanced at the straw rope and clothes in my hand, and couldn't help but smile helplessly, thinking that if I did this, I wouldn't be discovered by the yin difference below, right?

Yes, the reason why the old lady gave us a white dress and a dress was to ask us to dress up as black and white impermanence, so that we could safely pass through the uninhabited village in front of us. Let's ask, no matter how many ghosts and monsters there are in the unmanned village, no matter how fierce they are, it is impossible to dare to fight the idea of black and white impermanence, right? This is also why when the old lady gives us clothes, she will say that the ghost walks the yin and yang road, no matter whether it is yin and yang or yang road, there will be no way out, and the yin and yang worlds can go on with confidence, and no one dares to stop them.

It's just that in this way, pretending to be black and white impermanence, if it is discovered by the shadows, it will be a little troublesome. You must know that there are gods in the three feet above your head, there are day wandering gods during the day, and there are night wandering gods at night, these two masters are divided into labor day and night to patrol the good and evil in the world.

However, I thought that the front would be so dangerous, or a small life mattered, and there was no way to offend black and white impermanence, which can be regarded as a hardship, and I don't think about us too much.

At that moment, I handed Chen Xingyong one of the black clothes and asked him to change into them, while I put on the white clothes and pretended to be Bai Impermanence.

Not to mention, the old lady was well prepared, in addition to clothes and robes, as well as a high hat, and even the mourning sticks were prepared and rolled up in her clothes.

Soon, we were all dressed up, one white and one black, wearing a high hat, mine said "Fortune at first sight", and Chen Xingyong's black top hat read "The world is peaceful". The two of them knew that they were holding a white paper mourning stick, and I was still dragging the big straw rope in my hand, dragging it on the ground, as if dragging an iron chain, it looked obviously two impermanences, one black and one white.
