21, Xiaozhao Temple
I also asked Niu Gensheng privately what this rat exorcism spell was all about, but he just didn't say it, and of course not only to me, but also to anyone who was curious about the rat exorcism spell, he didn't say anything about the mystery in it.
The rat repellent must be after midnight, so our tents are usually kept at a certain distance from the temple to be built, in case of a large number of rats escaping, that kind of scene is sweaty to imagine.
Before practicing the Fa, Niu Gensheng couldn't eat or drink, so he went to bed early.
Strange to say, when I was about to go back to the tent after dinner that night, I vaguely saw a woman in an embroidered cheongsam standing motionless in the forest in the distance, holding an old-fashioned canvas steel umbrella.
This terrifying scene made my scalp tingle, but in the blink of an eye, the woman was gone.
We often haunt the mountains and wilderness when we build ancient temples, and we have seen a lot of these strange things, so I just felt a little surprised, and I didn't think it was a big deal, so I went to sleep.
But I don't know why, I couldn't sleep that night, and then I heard the sound of Niu Gensheng leaving the tent, and his curiosity was hooked up by him again, so I couldn't sleep even more.
When I walked out of the tent to pee, I saw the woman standing motionless in the dark mountain forest, this time I saw it more clearly, the woman was slender, with a wonderful waist, just looking at the body shape, I knew that she was a very beautiful woman, but her umbrella covered the whole face tightly, and I couldn't see the face at all.
This time it didn't disappear because my eyes blinked, she stood there motionless the whole time.
Because her direction was right opposite Xiaozhao Temple, I was worried that something would happen to Niu Gensheng, so I took a canopy ruler and walked towards her.
Each of the people in our construction team has a canopy ruler in their hands, this thing can drive away wild things, and it can also ward off evil spirits, Ning Lingsheng said that if you see a ghost, use this thing to hit it, as long as it is not a particularly powerful ghost ghost, it will be dispersed.
But strange to say, no matter how I walked, the distance between the woman and me was always constant, so I couldn't make contact with her, and I didn't know how long I walked one after the other, and I faintly heard a muffled noise, like the heavy footsteps of someone walking.
As soon as I thought that Niu Gensheng was still doing it on the spot, I was anxious, and ran to Xiaozhao Temple, and with my speed, the woman with the umbrella disappeared without a trace.
When I ran to the vicinity of the ancient temple, I saw Niu Gensheng kneeling in front of the temple and kowtowing hard, and when I went around to the front, I could clearly see that his face was full of blood, and his facial features were covered with blood, so that he could not see clearly, and it looked very terrifying in the dark night.
In the wilderness, the cold moon hangs, without my friends by my side, watching his strange behavior in front of the lonely ancient temple, I still think of pity him, and I am stiff with fright.
But no matter how scared I am or saved, I was about to be brave enough to go up, when I heard Ning Lingsheng whisper behind me: I can't help him if I go up like this.
After that, Ning Lingsheng entered the temple and knelt in front of Guanyin's law and said: Passing by and disturbing, please understand. With that, he got up and walked to the east side of the Buddha wall, and took down a square white piece of paper.
It's strange to say, Niu Tiesheng, who was still kowtowing there desperately before, suddenly stopped, only to see that his upper body was straight, and he didn't pay any attention to the blood that kept dripping from his forehead.
Then Ning Lingsheng lit two candles and three incense sticks, knelt on the ground respectfully, and kowtowed three times to Fa Xiang.
This is a wish, two candles for the Buddha's eyes, three incense for prayer, Ning Lingsheng naturally made a wish for Niu Gensheng, sure enough, when he got up again, Niu Gensheng immediately collapsed to the ground and fainted, so I dragged him and dragged him to the edge of the woods five hundred meters away, so he dared to sit down and take a breath.
Brother Ning, what wish did you make just now?
I made a wish to come back and repair the temple, so that the master would not have to worry about Niu Gensheng anymore, and the statue of Guanyin in the Xiaozhao Temple was not a statue of Guanyin at all, but a statue of a fox fairy. Ning Lingsheng whispered.
No, I see that it is obviously the Dharma of Guanyin. Ning Lingsheng didn't speak, and pointed to the inside of the temple.
The pair of candles had already extinguished themselves without wind, only the fire of the three incense sticks was still there, and the strange thing was that above the fire of the three incense sticks, a pair of green light flashed.
The eyes of the clay statue can actually glow, how weird and weird it is.
Ning Lingsheng said: The deserted temples in the wild are not peaceful, why does the land of worship Buddha provoke evil spirits? The truth of this is not understood by ordinary people, but our craftsmen who repair the temple must know that the temple is a righteous Dharma hall, which is true, but the monks pay attention to compassion, and Buddhism is based on the purification of sentient beings, and the demons and monsters are one of the sentient beings, which will naturally attract mountain spirits and wild monsters.
So it wasn't Guanyin Bodhisattva who harmed Niu Gen, but a fox? I was amazed.
Ning Lingsheng sighed a little helplessly and said: What Lao Niu wants to do most is not to drive away rats, but to drive away ghosts, he must also see ghosts in the jungle, just like a scholar who draws a scoop on a gourd to exorcise ghosts. After that, he tore the white paper in his hand into pieces and threw it in the tunnel: he painted a chapter of Zhong Kui's statue with glutinous rice water, but how could the Taoist statue be hung in the Buddhist hall, it was just a mess.
It is estimated that Ning Lingsheng already knew about these things that Niu Gensheng did in private, but he deliberately pretended not to know, just to let him suffer some loss of memory.
Niu Gensheng has a strong body, although the appearance of his head breaking and bleeding seems to be very bluffing, in fact, it is a bruised skin and a mild concussion, but he doesn't remember what he experienced that night, he always thought he had a nightmare, and I didn't say it to his face.
The next thing is to make a vow, and once the vow made in the ancient temple is fulfilled, you must repay the vow as quickly as possible, otherwise there will be a lot of trouble.
So the next day, Ning Lingsheng asked Chen Sheng to lead the engineering team to repair Xiaozhao Temple.
The whole process is not shocked, there is nothing to say, but the person who funded the temple is more talkative, the village chief said that he raised the funds, and later we learned that the person who donated money to repair the Xiaozhao Temple is called Wang Tianming, and he is also a villager of Weidang Village, who went out to do a carpet business in the early years, because he followed the right brother, the other party started from a small hotel, and today has dozens of luxury hotels, and Wang Tianming's carpet business relied on the other party to bring up, and became the richest man in Weidang Village.
But none of Wang Tianming's three children is thoughtful, the eldest is a deformed person, born without a left hand, the right hand not only has six fingers, and the fingers cannot be separated, the second child is still a problem with two hands, although the left and right hands are all there, and there is no problem with the fingers, but the two hands are all on the chest, not the shoulder part of a normal person, which looks like a Tyrannosaurus rex at first glance.
Born to the third child, there is nothing abnormal in appearance, but he is deaf and dumb, and the three children are all sons, but none of them are healthy.
People are terrible, Wang Tianming gave birth to three such children, and I don't know how many people chew the root of his tongue behind his back, especially those who see him making money, they simply say that Wang Tianming is a bastard who does all kinds of evil, and these children have been retributed by him so they have become like this.
Moreover, these three children were born to him and two women, and these two women have no blood relationship with him, so there is nothing to say if they want to deny it.
After Wang Tianming and his second wife divorced, he found a girlfriend who was eight years younger than him, this time he did not go to the hospital for examination, but found a very famous fortune teller blind man to calculate a hexagram, the blind man told him that he owed a debt to others in his previous life, and the retribution was in his life, and the only way to crack it was to repair ten temples in a row.
When it came to him, he could only go to the doctor because he was sick, so he immediately raised funds to start repairing the abandoned ancient temple, and Xiaozhao Temple was the last one.
After the end of the work, the whole temple took on a new look, Wang Tianming also came to the scene, he was very satisfied, and sealed a big red envelope to Ning Lingsheng on the spot, and Ning Lingsheng did not accept it politely.
The renovated temple door is to hang the red ling, and the person who removes the red ling must be a good master, I saw Wang Tianming stepped forward with a red face to remove the red ling on the temple door, the new wooden door squeaked and opened on both sides, Wang Tianming turned his head to look inside, and suddenly shouted: My mother. It was like seeing a ghost and turned around and ran.
