The house slave courtyard workers performed their duties, and the housekeeper was polite and polite, served the Longjing tea before the Ming Dynasty, and whispered to Jiang Youdao: "The master will be here later, please wait for a while." ”

Jiang Youdao teaed for a while, sighed slowly, felt that the brown color was clear and fragrant, and unconsciously chanted the poem: "The wind outside the courtyard is laughing, and the daughter of Longjing before the Ming Dynasty is red......"

"Sir, so literate!" Boss Qian slowly walked out of the inner hall, helped the silver-rimmed glasses in front of him, and looked calm and relaxed.

"Boss Qian, I haven't seen you for many months, and I look younger!" Jiang Youdao got up and arched his fists and said with a smile.

"Haha, Mr. is smiling, when he is old, his eyes are not good, you see, this is what I brought from the capital, so it's pretty good." Boss Qian pushed his glasses and continued: "The contemptible people are unfortunate, and the only way to build this 'longevity grave' is to give some advice." ”

"It's good to say, it's good to say, get your request, I also visited a lot of famous mountains and rivers during the day, all far away mountains and jungles, swampy hinterland, although there are blessings, but it is inconvenient for future generations to sacrifice, the day will be long and will attract the mouth of the tiger and wolf, if you don't mind, there is a good cave nearby, I don't know if you want to?"

"Then what else to say, I don't want to be rich and rich, as long as my children and grandchildren are healthy, and the family is safe. I don't know where Mr. is referring to? ”

"Far away, close at hand." Jiang Youdao pointed to the northeast and smiled slightly.

Boss Qian looked in the direction he pointed, thoughtfully, and said, "Could it be that Mr. is referring to the barren mountain half a mile away, which is a forbidden land!" I heard that there are often fierce beasts in the mountains, and in the past few years, people have entered the mountains one after another, but no one has come out of the mountains, I'm afraid it's not appropriate! ”

"Hehe, this is just the gossip of a village woman, and you can't believe it."

"That'...... Then according to the gentleman's wishes, when is the right time to start construction? ”

"Tomorrow at three o'clock in the afternoon is the best auspicious time."

Under Jiang Youdao's instructions, Boss Qian prepared the application materials and necessary manpower, and when the time came, he could leave.

At noon the next day, Jiang Youdao came to the foot of the barren mountain in a Taoist robe, and saw Boss Qian leading more than a dozen domestic servants, all of whom were strong and ready to go.

"Okay, everyone go up the hill with me." Jiang Youdao held the compass in his hand, walked in the front, stopped and stopped along the way, saw the birds and flowers, the mountains and forests were dense, and it was not terrible as people said, and half an hour later, he came to a slope.

Jiang Youdao stood on the slope, inserted and grabbed a handful of mountain soil with his hand, sniffed it in front of his nose, and said: "This is here, the soil here is fresh, there is a backing mountain, the terrain is open, the turbidity does not stay, the aura gathers, and the rivers and rivers are far away from the bridge, which is a good hole." I don't know what Boss Qian means? ”

"Listen to Mr.'s orders."

"Okay," Jiang Youdao stood in front of everyone and shouted: "Sacrifice to the gods and open the earth......"

Jiang Youdao chose a good position, lit a pair of red candles, three incense sticks, a string of paper money, several pairs of paper ingots, prepared tea, wine, fish and meat, and used red paper to mark a piece of land honorific table, silently recited the words of opening the soil, and after three rounds of wine, he ordered a person to swing a hoe to open the soil, and then sprinkled a circle of early rice around the cemetery. Then the formal start of construction, the outline holes are all made of bricks, the top is a bucket circle, the inside and outside are painted with lime, the side is thrown with big fat steamed buns, say some auspicious words such as "descendants and descendants will enjoy the blessings of all generations, and the incense is prosperous to Shoulu to", throw over the big steamed buns, you can brush the outline. Because the boss of Qian built a "longevity tomb", you need to enter the bricks, that is, take a piece of green brick and grind it to its two sides smooth, write on this brick the birth date of the owner of this tomb, and when people die, they have to take out the bricks from the hole outline and put them into the coffin. Finally, the monument is erected, the name is engraved but not painted red, a lantern is lit, and two strings of firecrackers are set off, and the whole process is not finished until the end. Jiang Youdao saw that this matter was quite smooth, and nodded to Boss Qian with satisfaction, and everyone immediately went down the mountain. In the evening, Boss Qian had a big night banquet at home, and invited Jiang Youdao to dinner, flying in the sky, running on the ground, and swimming in the river, but everything that could be called by name was available, and he was stunned and unforgettable in this life, and he was drunk during the banquet. For more than a month and a half, Jiang Youdao was about to go out on this day, and was invited by two young people to a back alley to talk, and after saying three things, he learned that the original person was a member of the Mingcheng Sect, not for anything else, just to ask Jiang Youdao for a favor. Not long ago, the army of the red-haired devils searched for the remaining followers of the Ming Cheng Sect everywhere, so the whole city was under martial law, like an iron bucket. These people have no chance to escape, with the expansion of the scope of the search, they can only hide in the barren mountains, coincidentally that day Jiang Youdao was looking for a "longevity grave" for Boss Qian, just happened to be seen by them, and found that he was a Taoist, so he wanted to use his identity as a Taoist priest to hide people's eyes and ears, as long as he went out of the city, he joined forces with the disciples from other places, and fought back in the city again. Jiang Youdao understands that these righteous men are not big traitors, and what they do is still righteous, but he has never touched state affairs, and he doesn't want to involve himself in a place of right and wrong because of this matter. From his own point of view, firstly, he doesn't want to wade into this troubled water, and secondly, he is not a Taoist priest, the Taoist robe is just a guy who eats, in addition to knowing feng shui face-to-face, it is not easy to get out of the city, but this idea was opposed, thinking that he was a cowardly and cowardly person, and he had no enthusiasm to save the people and save the country. Jiang Youdao couldn't swallow this breath as soon as he heard this, although he couldn't get used to the corruption of the Qing court, but he also knew the suffering of the people in Liming, and was provoked by these words, and decided to agree. After discussion, it was decided to come up with a trick to "drive away the corpses", so that the red-haired devils could see the wonders of our zombies coming out of the city. Speaking of chasing corpses, it is extremely eerie and mysterious, to put it simply, it is a Taoist priest who leads a team of corpses through the state and province, bringing the dead people back to their hometowns and letting them be buried in peace. While walking, he rattled the bell and threw paper money, and sometimes in order to prevent strangers from approaching, he also shouted the words "Yin people borrow the way, and Yang people avoid it". There are many taboo things to chase out corpses, not only the various exercises, but also strict regulations on corpses and corpses. Legend is so, the fact is not, how many people have seen it, even in modern times, there is no accurate answer, but as a kind of "witchcraft", it is also an important heritage to understand the history and culture of our country and the national culture. After choosing a midnight, Jiang Youdao changed into a Taoist robe, a Taoist crown, and a Taoist shoes, a copper coin sword in his left hand, a soul bell in his right hand, and a Qiankun bag on his waist. He was followed by more than a dozen Mingcheng sect followers, all wearing white coats, hats, and blue colors, stopping and jumping, with the rhythm of bells, comparable to well-trained troops. In the deserted streets, only the sound of barking dogs could be heard in the distance......
