Chapter 162: The Ghost of the Ancient House
"This death-free gold medal may have been brought here by outsiders." Jade Whisk said.
"It's not a big surname, it's usually people who live in the neighborhood." Zuo Dengfeng handed the gold medal to Yufu, and freed his hand to fasten the buttons of his robe.
"What kind of clues can we get through this gold medal?" Jade Whisk looked at the death-free gold medal again.
"There are no valuable clues, it can only show that this area is very likely to be inhabited by humans, and there will not be a situation where there are thousands of miles of people in Hunan and Hubei." Zuo Dengfeng carried the wooden box on his back.
Hearing this, Yufu nodded, and then took out a handkerchief from his arms and handed it to Zuo Dengfeng to wipe his hair, Zuo Dengfeng glanced at her and smiled and waved his hand, Yufu looked back and smiled bitterly and withdrew.
"Shall I still go to the East?" Seeing that the matter was over, Iron Shoes interjected to ask.
"Go." Zuo Dengfeng nodded and said, under normal circumstances, a vassal state would not establish a capital next to the river, so the three of them had to line up and look north to find it so that nothing was missed.
In one day, the three of them did not stop, and only walked less than two hundred miles, and in the evening, Yu Fu shouted to the two of them, she found a mountain village, the mountain village is located at the foot of a high mountain, the scale is not small, there are a hundred houses by sight, that is to say, there are at least a hundred households.
"Let's go to the village and spend the night." Zuo Dengfeng observed for a moment and said that it was very cold in the mountains at night, and he didn't want Yufu to be frozen with them.
"It's fine." Jade Whisk nodded and said.
"It's fine." The iron-shoeed parrot.
Unanimous opinion, the three of them went down the mountain through the woods and walked towards the village, there is a large area of land in front of this village, the weather is very cold at this time, there is no grain in the field, but according to the farming situation, it can be judged that the village is still relatively civilized, at least they know how to farm, in addition, there is a winding mountain path extending to the east on the east side of the village, which also shows that the people of this village go out occasionally.
Outsiders came to the peaceful village, and the residents of the village came to the village to stop and watch, their clothes were relatively bright, the women wore red and green, and the gold and silver ornaments on their heads, and the men were mainly dressed in blue and wore green homespun hats.
"They seem to be living very richly." Jade Whisk looked at the villagers gathered at the entrance of the village, and the woman's headdress and chest ornaments were made of precious metals, mostly gold.
"The reason why the Jinsha River is called the Jinsha River is because it produces Jinsha here." Zuo Dengfeng nodded and said, although a large number of villagers gathered at the entrance of the village, none of them came out to speak, which means that the person in charge has not yet come.
"Why are they staring at us?" Iron Shoes asked suspiciously.
"Curious." Zuo Dengfeng said with a smile, a female Taoist priest with a futon on her back, an old monk with a big box on her back, and a big cat of seventy or eighty pounds, anyone who sees it will be curious.
While the three of them were talking, a white-haired woman in her sixties came from the village, and the villagers gave way to her when they saw her.
The old woman walked through the crowd and came to the three of them, although this person is old, but he walks vigorously, his waist is not bent, there is no dragon bell, his expression is majestic, not angry but mighty, as soon as this old woman appeared, Zuo Dengfeng immediately judged that this mountain village was likely to be a matriarchal society, otherwise it would not be the turn of a woman to call the shots.
"Amitabha, the old man is polite." Iron shoes are used to eating, and they are the first to salute.
"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, the head of the poor way." Yufu also politely raised his hand at the other party.
At this moment, Zuo Dengfeng felt awkward, because monks and Taoists had a fixed etiquette of greeting, but he didn't, so he could only arch his hand.
However, the other party did not respond, but said a local language, and a middle-aged man heard the words and walked out of the crowd and opened his mouth to the three of them, "Outsiders are not welcome in our village, so let's go." ”
"We're just staying overnight and we'll give you gold." Zuo Dengfeng took out a gold bar and handed it over.
"We don't need it, please leave." The middle-aged man translated the old woman's words.
"We've been on the road for a day, we're tired, we're not bad people." Zuo Dengfeng took out a gold bar again.
"Let's go, we don't welcome outsiders, and we're welcome if we don't leave." The old woman spoke, and the man translated.
"Fuck you, who are you going to be polite with, tell this old lady to make room for Lao Tzu, and then Rory will kill you all." Zuo Dengfeng suddenly became angry, and it was not enough to salute or give money, so he could only be rude.
When the middle-aged man heard this, he immediately showed an angry look, and quickly translated at the old woman, and after the middle-aged man finished translating, the old woman was also furious, screaming, and the men, women, and children of the whole village immediately put on a posture of driving away.
", the mantis arm is a car." Zuo Dengfeng frowned when he saw this, and he took a step forward to make a move.
"Forget it, why bother to be like them." Yufu frowned and pulled Zuo Dengfeng, and at this moment she finally saw the evil surname and fickleness on Zuo Dengfeng's body, and she turned her face when she said it.
"I'm most afraid of good people, and I'm least afraid of this." Zuo Dengfeng shook off the right hand of the jade whisk on the side of his shoulder, flashed forward and punched the old man, kicked the woman, as the saying goes, people leave their hometowns and are cheap, and no one can take the house with them when they go out.
Zuo Dengfeng's movements were very fast, these mountain people were his opponents, one by one they were either dogs eating or gnawing mud in their mouths, after three slaps and two feet, they all ran away screaming, even so Zuo Dengfeng still felt angry, and flashed forward and kicked violently.
"Okay, okay, it's all gone, so don't chase after it." Jade Whisk couldn't stand it anymore, so she stepped forward and grabbed him.
"You immediately let the old lady gather the whole village, Lao Tzu will give a lecture, if one of them dares not come, burn down your house." Zuo Dengfeng shook his body and grabbed the translator who tried to escape, this guy had a smell of mules, presumably a porter who led the horse to the mountain.
Hearing this, the other party nodded again and again, and ran away.
Zuo Dengfeng was relieved, and when he turned around, he found Jade Fu and Iron Shoes looking at him in amazement.
"Amitabha, it's not right for you to do this." Iron Shoes stepped forward and spoke.
"It's not right, it's that they have a bad attitude." Zuo Dengfeng pouted and spoke, Confucius's Confucianism pays attention to benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith, this group of people does not pay attention to it, and he does not need to pay attention to it.
"What are you doing with them?" Jade Fu frowned and spoke.
"Give them a lesson, teach them a lesson." Zuo Dengfeng said with a smile.
Zuo Dengfeng smiled, and Yufu also smiled, a man who was fierce to others and smiled at herself was exactly what she wanted.
The middle-aged man must have conveyed Zuo Dengfeng's words, he didn't dare not convey it, and the mountain people didn't dare not gather, otherwise the house would be gone, and the most open people in this society were bad people.
"Say it." Jade Fu urged with a smile.
"As the old saying goes, there are friends from afar, and they don't say it......" Zuo Dengfeng thought for a while, but was interrupted by Yufu's laughter as soon as he said a word.
"Why don't you translate." Zuo Dengfeng glanced at the translator who was standing not far away.
"I don't understand." The interpreter looked horrified.
"I don't understand what you said earlier, arrange a place for us to live, we will leave tomorrow morning, and we should pay back the money." Zuo Dengfeng took out a gold bar again and stuffed it into the middle-aged man's hand.
The middle-aged man understood this time, and immediately translated to the old woman, Zuo Dengfeng didn't kick her when he saw her old before, so she nodded.
Ten minutes later, the three of them were taken to a wooden house on the west side of the village, the house was very large and old, facing south, without a courtyard wall.
"Amitabha." When he came to the house, the iron shoes took the lead in chanting the Buddha.
Zuo Dengfeng and Yufu looked at each other, and couldn't help frowning, the three of them were all masters of surviving the Heavenly Tribulation, and they were all keenly aware that this room was not clean.
"Everywhere we go, the Yin Spirits will automatically avoid it, why haven't the Yin Spirits left here?" Zuo Dengfeng frowned and spoke.
"There are three yin spirits inside, all of them are hanged female ghosts, and hanged ghosts can't leave the beams of the house." Jade Whisk stepped forward and pushed the door in the weeds, the house was very empty, only there was a wooden bed in the northwest corner, the bed was covered with red bedding, and there was nothing else in the house, looking up, I found that the beams were very low, one main beam, three longitudinal beams.
"Thirteen, stay honest." Zuo Dengfeng made a statement to warn Thirteen not to act rashly.
"Amitabha, the old man has surpassed them." Iron Shoes entered the house and put down the wooden box.
"Don't worry." Yufu shook his head and waved his hand, and then walked around the room with his head raised, it was already night at this time, there were no stars and no moon, if it was replaced by someone else from this mountain village haunted house, I am afraid that it would be frightened, but the yin soul in the eyes of the three of them is a garbage to the point that it can no longer be garbage, it is not worth mentioning at all, let alone people, even Thirteen can easily deal with them.
"It's three young women, all hanged from this beam." Jade Whisk pointed to the beam near the wooden bed.
"Why would such a mountain village hang three women in one room?" Zuo Dengfeng looked up at the longitudinal beam.
"I don't know, let's summon it and ask." Yufu walked to the longitudinal beam on the west side and stood three steps away, and took out two small bamboo tubes from his arms, and after opening them, there was a small brush and a few blank yellow talismans, and a small amount of cinnabar in the other bamboo tube.
"Why do you keep using bamboo tubes to put things?" Zuo Dengfeng looked curiously at the jade whisk who was writing spells quickly.
"There are many bamboos in Hunan, which can be seen everywhere, and the bamboo surname is clean, so you can keep your living surname." Yufu only wrote a paper note and put away the bamboo tube, and then took out a small seal from his arms and stamped it under the paper note.
"What is this?" Zuo Dengfeng stretched out his hand and pointed to the small red seal of the jade whisk.
"The fourth-class Dharma seal of the Zhengyi Priest, we are divided into five levels, each class has its own different Dharma seal, only the Taoist priest who receives the Ritual is qualified to draw talismans and chant mantras, and only the spells with the seal are real." Jade Whisk withdrew the small seal.
"Why is the color of the yellow paper you use lighter than that used by Du Zhenren?" Zuo Dengfeng asked.
"Zhang Zhenren of Longhu Mountain, Ge Zhenren of Gesoap Mountain and Du Qiuting, the three of them are the fifth rank of the Emperor, that is, the highest level, and they use golden rune paper." Jade Whisk patiently explained.
"What are the rules for writing spells?" Zuo Dengfeng asked to the end.
"Taoist priests below the third rank are not qualified to use red cinnabar, they use pine and bamboo carbon ink, and the ground water must be dew or well water, dew is used to write yang mantras, well water is used to write yin mantras, and the brush for writing spells cannot be used sheep hair and wolf hair, but bamboo silk, sheep hair, wolf hair, such charms do not reach the heavens." Yufu said with a smile.
"It's really fake, why are there so many rules." Zuo Dengfeng said with a smile.
"The real thing isn't heard all the time, and you shouldn't question me." Yufu glanced at Zuo Dengfeng dissatisfied, then shook his hand and ignited the rune paper, and then chanted a spell lightly.
"Taiqing Jianzhen Ming, the seven spirits are free from the five elements, the three souls are not extinguished, the qi condenses into a yin form, and the Taishang Laojun is as anxious as the law......"
