Chapter 12: Willow Branches Fight Ghosts

I think people are sometimes like writing novels, not thinking about the Tao in front of the computer, but as soon as you sit in front of the computer, you have two big heads, and you can't type two words after a long time, even if you type it, you have to delete it.

I think that I can figure out things in the world as long as I am willing to use my brain, but now I know that there are many things that are not as simple as I thought, and I have no clue now. I almost want to fall asleep.

My personality is to ignore things that I don't understand, so let's take a step at a time. The most pressing task now is how to take down that monster.

Grandpa Chen's "Qimen Dunjia" left me has many ways to set up formations to extinguish evil. With my current ability, I still have a few powerful formations in my head. Those formations are certainly powerful, but the power of the formation depends entirely on the path of the person who sent the formation, and I don't know how powerful the formation I launched is, but I believe that it should not be reimbursed.

Just do it, go back and take out the luggage I brought this time, open the clothes, there is a red cloth bag under the clothes, but it is full of my treasures, "Qimen Dunjia" and the book published by Grandpa Chen himself, as well as a bottle of ink, a few brushes and a stack of yellow paper. I take these with me everywhere I go.

On the yellow paper, the gourd painted a scoop and depicted some talisman seals of the array. This is different from Fu, because the yellow paper I depicted alone cannot play any role, the same as waste paper, but if you put those yellow papers in the corresponding direction, distance, and area, you can play an extraordinary power, and it will not have any effect on people and living animals, but it will have fatal damage to spirits and the like, and ordinary people will not see this power.

It's really hard to draw this thing, because I don't have any experience before, and for drawing those words that I don't understand, it's really a stroke of a stroke, and it takes a long time to draw a piece of paper, but now I have time, and I draw slowly. Even if you are so serious, you will still make mistakes if you are not careful.

Fortunately, there are many yellow paper belts this time, otherwise it really can't withstand such a wasteful method, as the saying goes, good patience can grind the iron rod into an iron toothpick. It took me more than four hours to finish the thirty-six chapters, which is much more tiring than the code words, to be honest. Sore back, weak legs, and cramps.

I stretched my waist and thought about it, as if something was missing? Now this brain can still be used when it doesn't want things, and when it thinks about things, it is paralyzed. Sleep deprivation, right?

His eyes stared into the distance, and he wondered what was missing. Suddenly, I saw a peasant coming down from the hill and preparing to go home, dressed in plain clothes, with a hoe on his shoulders and water boots on his feet. I thought about it, I thought about it, and when I saw that hoe, I thought that I was one less handy.

But where do you go to find guys in this hellish place? It's not a group fight, it's not just a handful of something that can be used. This is a fight with ghosts.,It's also something it's afraid of having to find a ghost taboo.,My first instinct came to mind the copper coin sword.。

But in this wilderness, where can I find copper coins in front of the village and no store in the village? Not to mention the copper coin sword. This idea was quickly deleted by me, and it is quite unreliable.

There's also an idea of a peachwood sword, but it's still unreliable to think about, I just haven't seen a peachtree in this ghost place, and I don't know if it's intentional.

Suddenly I thought of the two big willow trees at the gate, yes. You may have heard of willow branches beating ghosts, and whipping them three inches shorter. Although I don't know if I can be short, I know that Grandpa Chen told me that willow branches can hit ghosts, and the power is not less than that of a peachwood sword.

He once told me a story. The story happened when Grandpa Chen was young, and there was a family in my village who quarreled with his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law every day, mainly because the daughter-in-law was not filial but because the old lady of the family had a little abnormal brain, crazy, if she was all stupid, it would be fine, as long as she was given food, but she was afraid of being half stupid.

The old lady of the family is always unable to get along with her daughter-in-law, no matter what she has to pick a bone in the egg, her brain is a little unclear, and she is also an honest woman, but no matter how honest she is, she can't stand the verbosity of her mother-in-law, anyway, it is noisy and noisy, and it doesn't stop for a day.

Until one day the old lady quarreled with her daughter-in-law again, when the old lady's son happened to come back, and he was used to this kind of scene, and no one bothered to eat first at the dinner table. I think it's a good way to do it, and neither of you can be offended. When they get tired of arguing, they naturally stop arguing.

But the old lady didn't agree, she felt that her son didn't help her, and her daughter-in-law still bullied her, and no one helped her, so she went back to her room crying, and shouted "no longer alive" as she walked.

Everyone didn't care about this, because the old lady didn't say this once or twice, every time she did this, and she would come out to eat in less than half an hour.

The daughter-in-law may also be tired of arguing, so she filled a bowl of rice and ate it angrily. But that time, her mother-in-law didn't come out for a long time. The daughter-in-law said to her husband, "Father, why hasn't your mother come out to eat?" ”

Her husband said, "It's okay to come out in a while, and you still have to quarrel with her?" ”

"Who's going to quarrel with your mother? Don't you know what virtues your mother has? You are her son, and you don't call her when you eat. The daughter-in-law said.

The husband thought about it, too, let's stop in moderation, after all, it's a family. And he went.

But not long after the husband went, he ran back with a blue face, and took his wife's hand all the way to her mother's room. The wife, who was confused, was scared silly when she arrived at her mother's room.

I thought his mother was just talking, but who knew that she actually committed suicide by drinking pesticides, and I didn't know where this pesticide came from.

Now the couple panicked, if this is known to others, how will they see people after such a rumor? But you can't keep it a secret. People in the village will always say it.

When a person dies, he still has to say it, but he can't tell the truth. After thinking about it, the couple decided to mourn in the evening for a few days, and after a few days, they said that their mother had died of illness.

Four days later, the couple told the news of their mother's death as originally planned, and the couple cried to death. The villagers were skeptical. Why hadn't I heard of any illness in her before? It's normal for an old man in his sixties to die. No one wants to look into it.

The couple thought that this was the end of the day, and when they died, they died, and they still lived their lives. It happened on the seventh day of the old man's suicide, that is, the night of the real first seven.

Because of the lie, they did not admit that the first seven were on that day, and only the couple understood this matter. Rural people generally go to bed early, and there is no entertainment at that time. I remember when I was a child, there was a family that went to bed as soon as it was dark, and the countryside was so simple.

My wife slept until midnight and vaguely felt someone push open the door of her room, but who was it so late? I was sober when I thought about it. Looking out through the moonlight, she was suddenly frightened, and she clearly saw a person standing by the bed, similar to her mother. finally let out a scream and shook her husband vigorously.

The husband was tired for a day and was woken up by his wife, and said scoldingly: "What the hell, you don't let people sleep in the middle of the night, it's noisy." ”

The wife was so frightened that she couldn't say a word, but pointed to the side of the bed, but there was nothing at that time.

When the husband saw his wife's face, he just thought she was having a nightmare and comforted: "Nothing, I'm sure you're dreaming, it's okay to sleep." ”

The wife was puzzled, and thought to herself, obviously she had just seen a person clearly. Why didn't this happen? Maybe it's really a dream. Forget it, it's gone, go to sleep. I'm going to have to wake up early tomorrow.

But just after lying down, something strange happened. The gates of the countryside are made of a piece of wood, and there will be a sound when you push it open, according to my research for many years, it should be used to prevent thieves, if the door of the house is opened by a thief at night, the people in the family will know the sound, and the thief will be afraid.

The wife clearly heard the door being opened. It's like the sound of the wind clattering slowly, but the door is locked before going to bed? The wife's heart rose to her throat, and she suddenly thought that today is the first seven of her mother, it won't be her coming back, right?

He shook his husband vigorously, but this time he was not asleep, and it was obvious that he heard the voice and gently took his wife's hand, signaled not to speak, got up and lit the oil lamp, and waited quietly to see who it was. Gradually, there was no sound, the silence was terrible, and all that was left was the heartbeat of the couple.

I thought it was all right, but when I was about to blow it out, I almost didn't scare the couple out of my heart attack, and the door to the room slowly opened.

The couple's hearts were raised in their throats at one time, and they all looked out of the door.

Seeing his mother standing alive outside the door, no, she can't say that she is alive at this time, anyway, her mother is outside the door.

The husband jumped up from the bed with a whoop and called out tentatively.

But what I got was not an imaginary answer, I saw his mother say angrily: "You brute, don't call me mother, I don't have a son like you, I actually came to harm your mother with that stinky woman, you said that you are not a beast, when I was there, the two of you called me sad for a day, I died and I couldn't be reborn, you brute, and your stinky woman, I want you to die, I want you all to come down and serve me." ”

After hearing this, the husband broke out in a cold sweat behind his back, his mother was a little abnormal in her brain, but she did what she said, I was afraid that it would really kill them, and the wife next to her had already fainted at some point. At this time, his mother, who was already dead, pounced on him.

He has been doing hard work all year round, so he is naturally agile and easily dodges. He knew that if he stayed here today, he would be able to explain here, and there was an old saying: husband and wife are birds of the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster comes. The husband didn't care about his wife, he grabbed the door by himself, and he didn't know if he was stupid or stupid, he didn't run outside, but ran inside, and he arrived at the kitchen in a few clicks, and he was dumbfounded, there was no way! But his mother had already followed.

It is said that the rabbit is in a hurry and bites, if this person is really anxious, he will dare to fight with the ghost, as long as it threatens his life, even if it is his own mother, he must be put down.

The husband saw that he had no way to retreat and had to work hard, and he didn't know what to do, so he screamed and rushed towards her mother, who probably didn't hide because of her brain problem, and ate it solidly, and then a miracle happened, only to see her mother scream, turn around and run. All of a sudden, it was gone.

The husband didn't dare to go out to chase after him, just stood there blankly, gasping for breath, and realized for a long time what about his wife? dragged his heavy legs back to the room, saw that his wife was still panting to indicate that she was not dead, shook for a long time and finally woke up, explained that the ghost had run away for a long time, and the wife calmed down.

After calming down, the husband realized what he had just beaten the ghost. At first glance, it turned out to be a willow branch that I had cut back a few days ago to light the fire and cook.

The couple didn't dare to sleep again all night, and Baba looked forward to the dawn. When it was just dawn, the husband and wife washed their faces and went out, and he went to find someone. Looking for Grandpa Chen's father, it is the legendary Chen Banxian of Shili and Eight Towns a long time ago, who is very good at his skills, specializing in yin and yang affairs, and it is said that he has reached some kind of agreement with the prefecture, as long as he makes a move, there is nothing he can't do.

The husband told Chen Banxian the truth of the matter, and he didn't dare to make the slightest reservation. After hearing this, Chen Banxian shook his head and said, "You should never and should not change the time and cause of the old man's death." The book of life and death records when and how everyone died. After being changed by you like this, the old man and the following are not the same number, naturally she will not be reincarnated, she will definitely come to you. ”

The husband recalled what happened last night and had infinite fear in his heart, and said anxiously: "Uncle Chen! What can I do? It's impossible for this ugliness to be publicized, and you know that my mother-in-law is okay, right? If this thing gets out, what will she do in the future? You know who my mother is, right? I don't blame my mother-in-law! Uncle Chen, you must save me. ”

Chen Banxian nodded and said: "You shouldn't be killed, the willow branch saved your life last night, and I will do this for you today, I will not watch your family suffer." You tell me when your mother passed away, and I will change it back to your mother for you, and then you can go to reincarnation. When the time comes, you can burn some paper money. ”

The couple knew that they would be fine if Banxian was willing to help, and after telling Chen Banxian the time, Chen Banxian asked them to go home to prepare tribute paper incense candles, and he would go over in a while. The couple naturally left with a thousand thanks.

Seeing that the young Grandpa Chen opened his mouth after the couple left, he asked, "Dad, why can the willow tree hit the ghost?" ”

Chen Banxian has always asked his son questions, and his mantle will be passed on to him after a hundred years, and he should be taught as much as possible, and said patiently: "The five elements of willow wood belong to wood, and peach wood is the same. It's just that the peach wood is the yang of the wood, the willow wood is the yin of the wood, the peach wood can drive away evil towns, and the willow wood can also. Both willow and mahogany are good things to ward off evil spirits. Do you understand? ”

After listening to this, Grandpa Chen naturally understood. Chen Banxian's ability to change so much is naturally not a problem, so I won't show it for the time being.

When I was a child, Grandpa Chen told me this as a story. Now it comes in handy. I decided to clean up the monster with a willow branch and smoke it to death.

Let's do it, I took a kitchen knife and walked towards the gate, I felt that I was carrying a kitchen knife with a very majestic style, and everyone was afraid to see it.

Three times five divided by two, they climbed up the tree, and two divided by five times and three cut down a bundle of willow branches. I wrapped the willow branches together in a rather large bundle, and when I looked at it, I felt that it must hurt to smoke on my body.

Green-faced monster, look how my brother pumps you tonight.
