Chapter 49: The Departure of Longshan
If you choose to stand in the darkness, then you are dark, and if you choose to stand on the opposite side of darkness, then you are light!
There are many choices in this life, and each choice can often change the future life, and countless forks in the road are waiting for countless choices, some will lead you to the light, while others will lead you into the endless dark abyss.
After a short period of joy, he had to face the confusion of reality, Ye Huan's hurried words simply cost Cha Wenbin's life, he is a responsible person, is it really because he rashly broke into the broken temple and triggered a tragedy that has been buried for 600 years? Of course, the fat man persuaded him vigorously that he didn't have to believe it, but what Ye Huan said did answer too many doubts in Cha Wenbin's heart. And now one of the biggest doubts is still in front of them: does the female corpse really still exist?
Any religion, including Buddhism, Christianity and Taoism, believes that there is reincarnation and ghosts in this world, and Taoism believes that in addition to the soul theory, the human soul is actually a special substance with consciousness, and it is called "Yuan Shen" and "Neidan". This kind of primordial spirit has yin and yang, and after cultivation, making people become pure yang, they can control the soul in and out of the body.
They call it "out-of-body".
If you want to define it accurately, you should separate the word ghost and divide it into "ghost" and "soul". The ghost commonly known as the folk is not actually the soul of a person, but the three corpses, and the soul refers to the three souls and seven souls of a person, even if the three souls of the fetus, the cool spirit, and the ghost spirit, the corpse dog, the arrow, the bird yin, the thief, the non-poisonous, the filth, and the stinky lungs.
According to Taoist texts, ghost is a general concept that includes three meanings: the first is the spiritual phenomenon of a person detaching from the physical body after death; The second is all non-material supernatural phenomena that cause fear and harm to people; The third is all the supernatural phenomena. After a person is harmed by such an incident, it is divided into two types: explicit and implicit.
Overt manifestations include hysteria, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, schizophrenia, or a chronic disease; The hidden ones are often manifested as upset, eccentric personalities, or indescribably extremely uncomfortable. In particular, patients who are possessed by demons may experience hallucinations, such as some people will appear crazy and say that they have seen something that others cannot see, or that they are controlled, etc.
The folk are often falsely rumored to be possessed by immortals, and Taoist classics clearly record that immortals will never possess the human body ("Taoist Dharma Hui Yuan 64 Taishang Temple of Heaven Jade Grid" has a clear record: "All the true heavenly immortals and gods, do not attach to the body of the living, if they are attached to the human language, they must be evil demons!" ”
Ancient Taoist classics record that after death, the three souls ascend to heaven, and the seven spirits enter the ground, leaving only the three corpses that live in the body before life, namely: Peng Zhen, Peng Qi, and Peng Jiao change into the image before life, and are called ghosts. This is the resentment that Cha Wenbin later understood, and if the resentment does not dissipate, it will condense into the appearance before his death, so when people pass away, they need to ask a Taoist priest to exceed, in order to resolve this resentment so that they will not become a powerful ghost. The existence of a ghost depends on whether the breath has a wish, whether it can support its long-term existence, and so on. Taoist priests have always been inseparable from evil ghosts, since Zhang Daoling Tianshi founded orthodox Taoism, he inherited the magic weapon "two swords to cut evil", requiring Taoist disciples to dispel evil and help righteousness, to support righteousness, and to drive away demons and evils, which is also one of the purposes of the religion.
Therefore, it is Cha Wenbin's duty to kill the evil demons, even if the woman really had a lot to do with him in her previous life, she will not be able to escape the sanction easily, if she is a ghost or an evil person in this world, no matter how much reason there is, it is not tolerated.
So Lao Cha is going to be dispatched! And every time before the Tao, you need to bathe and change clothes, it is said that this is a rule set from the time of witchcraft in the pre-Qin era, and the Taoist classic "Taishang Lingbao Du Ren Shangpin Miao Jing" records: "Tao Yan: On the day of doing the Tao, all should be bathed in fragrant soup." If you don't bathe, there will be a serious disaster, or "the soul will fall and be detained by other ghosts", or "the old spirit will come, and the three palaces will be defiled", so this link is also indispensable.
Those who have an old yellow calendar at home will find that there is a lot of information recorded on it, such as what to avoid, what to do, what god is in what direction, and so on. This information is deduced through some knowledge of Taoism, and a fire dwelling Taoist like Cha Wenbin also needs to strictly abide by it, and when to bathe, and which direction to sit in the barrel when bathing is very particular. And if he wants to go out to practice the Dharma like today, he will usually write two talismans himself, most of them are runes that remove filth and tranquility, and burn them together into ashes and soak them in wooden barrels, and then they will also recite mantras, and when the mantra is recited a few times, it will be the hour, and then he will get up and change his robe.
During the day, neither zombies nor ghosts will come out to move, but it is the best time for Taoist priests to look for them. In the past, it was common to see some Taoist priests walking around with a compass in their hands, some of them looking at feng shui, while others with wooden swords on their backs were mostly looking for evil objects. It's just that in recent years, it has been rare to see a Taoist priest come out of the mountain, and if the Huoju Taoist priests, who are mainly disciples of Maoshan Mountain, are like this, they are afraid that they will be regarded as a god stick.
So where is Cha Wenbin going to find it? Taoist ghost hunting is generally divided into several steps: calculation, determination, searching, trapping, and descending, the first of which is calculation.
If you know the other party's birth date, the date of death can be calculated, which is generally for new ghosts. Most of the new ghosts don't travel very far, usually with corpses or graveyards. And like that female corpse, it can't be counted in this way, but how fierce the anger of six hundred years is, the impact on the surrounding environment is the same in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the eyes of Taoist priests, you can get a glimpse of it.
So early in the morning, Cha Wenbin was waiting for the sunrise, and today there are more clouds, which is a good time to observe. Generally speaking, colored clouds are auspicious, and black clouds or dark clouds are evil, but this is differentiated, except in normal weather on rainy days. The clouds are tumbling, or black and oppressive, as if there are dragons and snakes flying in them, but there are clouds in the sky that are normal weather, which is commonly referred to as anomalies. The ancients said: Born with visions, there will be trouble, and soothsayers and feng shui masters from ancient times to the present have all carefully studied the celestial phenomena.
The mountain is not high, so the sun will appear at about a quarter past six, and there will be neat rows of white clouds in the sky, which at first glance will be an ordinary cloudy day. The fat man and Li Chenggong also learned to look around, but in their eyes, aren't the clouds in the sky the same?
At about a quarter past six, the first golden light began to appear in the eastern mountains, and the sun rose and entered the clouds, and then passed through and re-entered, and the lattice-like sky kept changing in just four or five minutes, and at this time the clouds in the sky began to change violently because of the direct light. As we all know, the change of cloud cover is largely determined by air pressure, which will produce different wind directions, humidity and temperature, and one of these changes is the magnetic field. If nine out of ten changes in cloud cover are in line with today's temperature and wind direction, then if there is a difference in one place, it is due to the influence of the magnetic field.
This kind of gap is what Cha Wenbin wants to capture, which requires the Taoist priest to have an extremely keen perception. Cha Wenbin's eyes moved rapidly, he kept capturing the changes in the sky in his sight, and his hands were slightly open to detect the changes in wind speed, humidity and temperature in the air, which all took years of accumulation, and only if you understand nature can it be possible to observe the answer it gives you through nature.
Suddenly, Cha Wenbin's eyes narrowed suddenly, and there were two black clouds floating under a white cloud, which only made a short stay and then merged with the white cloud, it was such a subtle change that made him catch it, it was really a blink of an eye, he said: "Yes, southeast direction, within thirty miles." ”
"Southeast?" Li Chenggong said: "If you are a straight line away from here, it is the Longshan Mountain Range, which is almost the same as Lion Peak, are you sure you will be there?" ”
Longshan Mountain Range and Lion Rock belong to the same Tianmu Mountain Range, one lineage, if you go along the ridge may be less than thirty miles, the same mountain range is also the junction of Zhejiang and Anhui provinces, and you can go to Lin'an in the south, and you can go to Anhui in the north. This mountain is famous for its strange rocks and strange pines, and it is called Little Yellow Mountain in the local area, and its overall mountain is like a sleeping dragon, hence the name.
There is a village at the foot of the mountain, called Li Zhuang. The village was not large, there were only thirty or forty households at that time, and Tonghong Village was the same, where people who fled from the famine gathered in the late Qing Dynasty. And Longshan is probably the most famous Longshan ancient tomb group, this ancient tomb group was found after the corpse search trip of Cha Wenbin, and was later characterized as a piece of ancient Yue noble tomb in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and now it is proved that there are more than 1,000 ancient tombs in various periods, all over the entire Longshan area, and now it has long been a national key cultural protection unit.
The ancient tombs of Longshan are still a mystery to many people, why such a large-scale ancient tomb will occur in such a remote place, and according to historical records, Anxian County in the same period did not produce a figure of the level of princes and kings, so is it the omission of information caused by historical dynasties or there is another hidden situation?
