Chaoshan is not a specific place name, more precisely, it is a general term for culture, the locals here generally refer to Chaozhou, Shantou, Jieyang and other places as Chaoshan, and the people born and raised in this land also call themselves Chaoshan people. Many outsiders will confuse this, and the hometown Chaoshan mentioned by He Shuixiang actually refers to Jieyang.

The next day, under the leadership of He Shuixiang, we drove to Jieyang.

Although Jieyang is a city-level, the area is not large, and in the past, Jieyang was a county-level city. After a full five or six hours of driving, we arrived in Jieyang City at noon. This is a seemingly quiet urban area, the population is not so dense, and the hustle and bustle of Shenzhen is completely different, there are not so many high-rise buildings, under the guidance of He Shuixiang, our car went all the way to Jieyang South, along the way, you can see a lot of traditional buildings.

The Chaoshan area is the area with the most intact folk culture in Guangdong, all the way to the distance, you can also see a lot of temples, which shows that the ghost culture is also very popular in the local area.

While driving, He Shuixiang said: "Our old house has been preserved, no one lives, our old manager said that the foundation of our ancestors cannot be demolished casually, many people have moved away, but the old houses are there." ”

Half an hour later, we arrived at the old house of the Guanshan family, which is the old-fashioned house in the past, I can't see what the specific style is, He Shuixiang said that Guanshan is a Hakka person, and this house has been passed down for three generations, and it should be a Hakka building.

The neighboring houses around the house, as He Shuixiang said, are also uninhabited, and the surrounding lanes are full of weeds, and occasionally one or two children run by, staring at us very curiously. He Shuixiang took out the key and opened the lock of the gate, accompanied by the squeak of the old-fashioned door, and the layout of the stockade was displayed in front of our eyes.

The grass in the courtyard has grown a little taller, and the old-fashioned cloister gives people a sense of simplicity and heaviness, and the doors of each wing room are locked, only the door of the hall is not locked, and it is slightly open. It is said that relatives come to take care of and clean it from time to time, otherwise the house will be uninhabited for a long time, and many snakes, insects, rats and ants will be born.

After entering the gate, Tan Jian motioned to He Shuixiang to bolt the gate from the inside, and then he and Zhou Xuanye began to check the house. Modern people live in commercial houses, the area is small, according to our eyes, this house is big. However, according to the previous architectural style, the area of this house is actually a bit shabby.

He Shuixiang said that Guan Shan's grandparents and above are actually poor, and the mask of the house is so big, and now it looks like vermilion lacquer is painted, which is the result of the renovation of later generations from generation to generation.

As he spoke, Tan Jian had already taken out a compass from his backpack, the straight cross with the red line on the compass was very bright, and in the center, there was a glass-inlaid compass, at this moment, the needle of the compass was swinging slightly, as if it had been disturbed by something.

Tan Jian and Zhou Xuanye began to walk around the house slowly, and from time to time, they would ask He Shuixiang some strange questions, for example, he asked He Shuixiang: "Ancestor of the housekeeper, have you offended anyone?" ”

He Shuixiang couldn't say clearly, I hadn't heard of offending anyone.

Tan Jian asked again: "Do you know how the housekeeper started his business and made a fortune?" ”

He Shuixiang immediately said: "I know this." The housekeeper's ancestor was farming, and when his grandfather was plowing the land, he dug out a piece of jade from the soil, and his father sold the jade and made a business capital, so he made a fortune slowly. ”

"Dig up a piece of jade?" Tan Jian said: "Where did you dig it?" ”

He Shuixiang said: "I don't know this, when I got married, the housekeeper was already very generous, and he stopped farming for a long time." ”

Tan Jian nodded, silent, and a moment later, when we walked to the door of a side room, the pointer in the compass suddenly swung very strongly. This shows that there is a very abnormal magnetic field in this chamber.

Zhou Xuanye on the side immediately asked, "Who lived in this room before?" ”

He Shuixiang was surprised: "This is the master bedroom, I used to live with Guan Shan, what's the matter, is there a problem?" Tan Jian motioned for her to look at her compass, and then said, "Not only is there a problem, but there is a big problem. As he spoke, he motioned to He Shuixiang to open the door.

He Shuixiang saw that the pointer of the compass was swinging around, and he was already panicked, so naturally what we said was what we said. The door hadn't been opened for a long time, and as soon as it was opened, the train fell down with a bang, and at a glance, the tables and chairs in the room were all made, covered with a white cloth, and the cloth was covered with a thick layer of ash.

Tan Jian pointed to the dust cloth on the table, and motioned for us to put away all these dust cloths, and after doing all this, the whole room was full of dust, making people unable to even open their eyes, and it took a long time to calm down. Immediately afterwards, Tan Jian began to search the room, his expression seemed very focused, but Zhou Xuanye did not help.

I couldn't help but ask, "Brother Zhou, what is he looking for?" ”

Zhou Xuanye said: "That thing that affected the magnetic field of the compass." In fact, the so-called formation is to use the formation method to change the magnetic field of a region, and even if the final formation is destroyed, there will be residual evidence. The magnetic field here is anomalous, and it is clear that someone has moved in this room before. ”

Sure enough, Tan Blade's gaze quickly stayed on the dresser in the room.

It's one of those old-fashioned dressers with magpies and birds next to it, and it still looks clean thanks to the dust cloth it used to cover.

Tan Jian looked at the dresser, and suddenly said, "Why is this table?" "Even people like me who don't understand feng shui also know that the dresser can't face the bed, because there is usually a mirror on the dresser, and sleeping in the mirror is a big taboo.

This is some common feng shui taboo that most people know, it stands to reason that Guan Shan is superstitious about these things, it is impossible not to even understand such a simple truth, right?

He Shuixiang also sighed and said, "Didn't you face the head of the bed before, has anyone moved?" ”

As I spoke, I couldn't help but move my eyes to the dresser, and found that the dresser, which was originally attached to the wall, really had an offset angle, as if someone had moved the dresser, but it didn't have time to completely reset it, so it left a gap.

Tan Jian immediately put down the compass, beckoned to me, and motioned for me to carry the dresser, and the two of us worked together to lift it a meter away, and at this time, Tan Jian began to search carefully. It was then that I noticed that there seemed to be something stuffed in the mirror frame behind the dresser.

Only one corner was exposed, and it was red, like a piece of red cloth.

I knew that this dresser was famous, and I didn't dare to move blindly, so I patted Tan Jian on the shoulder and pointed it to him. Tan Jian glanced at it, and immediately carefully pulled out the thing, and I realized that it was actually a small bag sewn from red cloth.

He Shuixiang obviously didn't expect such a thing to be placed behind his dresser, and said in shock: "What is this?" ”

Without saying a word, Tan Jian opened the red bag and found something inside. The black one is like a thread, and if you look closely, it is a handful of human hair, and the hair is not long, it should be a man's.

After reading it, Tan Jian's face sank, he stuffed his hair into the red bag, and said, "Keep looking." See if there's anything else going on. Soon, at the foot of the bed and other places in some difficult places, we found this little red cloth bag one after another, which contained different things, such as nails, hair, and charms.

When he opened the spell, Tan Jian's serious expression turned into surprise, and said, "Who showed you the feng shui in this room?" ”

He Shuixiang was already the owner of the six gods at the moment, and immediately said when he heard the words: "Who else can there be, it is the damn fortune teller." ”

Tan Jian nodded, turned the rune paper into a paper ball and threw it on the ground, and said, "Your husband's family, do you have a grudge against the fortune teller?" ”

He Shuixiang said: "Where do you start with this, the old fortune teller and Guan Shan's father are friends in a pair of pants." Guan Shan's father died early, and the old fortune teller really helped the housekeeper a lot, but his personality was very obedient, and I didn't deal with him much. ”

When Tan Jian heard this, he showed a thoughtful expression, and said: "This is a ruined wealth rushing bureau, setting up this bureau, the people who live here naturally don't need to say that they are ruined, and when the rushing is serious, it will also affect the six relatives." The people who set up this situation for you want to ruin your family. ”

He Shuixiang's lips trembled, and said: "It turned out that the old fortune teller was making trouble, where did I treat him badly, he wanted to fix us like this." As she spoke, she suddenly remembered Su Qi and said in a trembling voice: "So, everything is none of my daughter's business?" ”

Tan Jian shook his head slightly, and said: "A hundred ghosts send children, the parties are easy to die, but they are harmless to the six relatives, you were deceived by that person." ”

He Shuixiang's tears came out at once, and she exclaimed: "My poor daughter ......" After speaking, she burst into tears, I was a little at a loss, and after a few words of comfort, she got up and said: "I have to tell the dead ghost at home about this, so that he can see what he has done!" After speaking, like grasping a life-saving straw, he grabbed Tan Jian's hand suddenly.

Tan Jian was caught off guard, and was grabbed by her hand, and his whole face was suddenly distorted, and the frightened He Shuixiang hurriedly let go and exclaimed: "Ouch, Boss Tan, what's wrong with you." Tan Jian was shaking all over, and the hand that was grabbed was as stiff as a chicken's paw, and then he grabbed a handful of ash on the ground and rubbed it on his hand.

For a human contact cleanliness patient, the dust is definitely cleaner than a person, and being touched by someone, as long as it is not separated by clothes, is almost the same as being **.

He Shuixiang is still charming, Tan Jian's overreaction is estimated to have caused great damage to her self-esteem, and she couldn't speak for a while, not to mention the expression on her face.

After a while, Tan Jian finally stopped shaking, took out his gloves with a dark face and put them on, and walked out without saying a word, and then, for more than six hours on the return trip, he didn't pay attention to any of us. He Shuixiang didn't say anything when he asked.
