Chapter 9: The House of the Underworld
Master was about to say yes, but I patted my chest and volunteered, "I'll go." β
Miss Bai frowned and looked at me with a questioning look.
"It's okay, I'm going to go out and buy something later, Leng'er go, come back and tell me the results of your check." Master said.
Miss Bai didn't say anything, and nodded a little reluctantly.
Along the way, Miss Bai drove without saying a word. I sat in the passenger seat, and the dreary atmosphere in the car made me uncomfortable. I'm a familiar person, and Miss Bai looks a bit like Morning Star, so I chatted with her without a match.
"Madame Wang."
"Please don't call me Mrs. Wang..."
"Oh, I'm sorry, Miss Bai."
I said in my heart, this woman is as strange as a mystery, the old Wang Ban has only been dead for more than half a month, and she just avoided the three words Mrs. Wang...
The atmosphere was awkward, and I hurriedly changed the subject and told a joke. After speaking, I laughed and asked Miss Bai if she was funny. She turned her head and looked at me coldly.
"Can I tell the truth?" Miss Bai asked.
"Hmm." I nodded.
"It's the first time I've seen a master as rambling as you..."
My face was hot, my tongue sticked out, and I didn't speak again.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, we came to Linxian. It was the richest county in our city, and as the Mercedes sedan drove down the wide road, I saw villa-style buildings flashing out of the car window.
After turning a corner, the car drove into an alley, and after a few turns, it stopped in front of a deep house compound. The yard is very large, it looks a bit old from the outside, but when you go inside, you can see that the decoration is very modern, and the air conditioning and the like are readily available.
There is only one young man in the family with hanging arms and a lot of bandages wrapped around his body, which is Xiaoqing's younger brother.
"Sister Xin is here, what is this?" The young man pointed at me.
"Oh, this is what I invited to show your house feng shui... "Miss Bai put the word "master" at the back and dragged a long accent.
"Hey, heyβ" I smiled awkwardly.
The young man sneered and shook my hand, and I felt that even the air was filled with a factor that did not want to see me.
I stubbornly asked the young man about the recent situation at home, and the young man seemed impatient, but he patiently recalled them one by one and told me.
As I listened, I raised my eyes to look at the layout of this mansion, and judging from the feng shui layout, there was nothing wrong with it, and it would not form a bad aura that interfered with the fortune of the yang people.
Then the young man pointed to a very old house to the south and said to me that a few months ago he had appeared in it and killed a snake.
I frowned, "What's that house for?" β
"The old house, in which is the tablets of my grandfather and my great-grandfather."
I nodded, and said in my heart, the reason may be here, and Xun started a game on the ground.
When I was at the beginning, I looked with my peripheral vision, and saw that the contemptuous expressions on the faces of Miss Bai and the young man had disappeared, and they stood there solemnly, secretly proud in their hearts.
After the game, I took a closer look, and sure enough, it was Teng Snake, in the fall of the Yagami 'Teng Snake', there was a 'tomb grid', and it was near the door of death...
I already knew it in my heart, so I stood up and said slowly: "There is no problem with the feng shui of your family's home, the problem lies in your family's ancestral cemetery, take me to see it." β
Under the guidance of the young man, Miss Bai drove out of the county seat and stopped after driving for about seven or eight miles. The three of them got out of the car and walked on a small road, and walked for more than two miles, until they finally came to the ancestral grave of the young man's family, and the time was already evening.
The ancestral tomb is located on a dirt slope with a back sun, the tomb bag is repaired very large, it is buried in the young grandfather, there is a tombstone with eaves standing in front of the tomb, quite imposing, it seems, the original feng shui is still good.
It's a pity that the slope has been damaged, the southeast corner has been dug up a large piece, and what's worse is that a high-voltage line tower was built not far from the ancestral tomb under the slope, and the high-voltage line passed through the sky directly above the ancestral tomb, which is a big taboo in the feng shui of the yin house, and the high-voltage line will change the aura of the yin house.
Miss Bai and the young man looked a little uneasy when they looked at me frowning.
"Does grass grow here in the summer?" I pointed around the tomb and asked the young man.
"Huh? It's not been long for a long time, and when my sister came with me to sweep the grave in the middle of July this year, she said, hey, you see how good we are here, others have to weed the graves, we don't have to..."
"Silly! Hey! This grave does not grow grass because the anger is gone, and it has become a dead hole! β
"So what to do?" The young man asked.
"What else can I do if I move the burial, but your family's bad luck is not only for this reason, I think there must be something in this ancestral grave."
"What's that?" The young man's face turned pale.
I waved my hand and walked around the grave bag, and there was a small black hole, carefully removing the residual snow from the edge of the hole, and I saw that there was something in the hole. I put a twig into the hole and pulled out a snakeskin.
I picked up the snakeskin and raised it, and Miss Bai screamed in fright and hid behind the young man's back.
"You mean, there's a snake in this grave?" The young man asked.
"It turns out that there is, now it is gone, the snake you killed is it, this snake is grown up by relying on the vitality in the grave, after the feng shui here dies, it climbs to your old house according to the aura, and is entrenched in the ancestral house with your grandfather's tablet. As a result, you were 'killed' to death for the only bit of anger, no wonder you 'made a snake a monster'... Move the burial, 'revive' the vitality of the ancestral grave, and your home will slowly transfer..."
After Miss Bai sent me back, I told Master the results of my investigation. The master nodded, and told Miss Bai to ask her to give a message to that Xiaoqing's younger brother, choose another place, and choose a day to move the burial.
At noon the next day, Miss Bai rushed over and told us that the grave site had been chosen. I went with Master to see it, and I saw that the new grave site was on a river embankment about two or three miles away from the ancestral grave. Although the feng shui is average, it doesn't matter if you are facing the river, as long as you have vitality.
Xiaoqing and his wife also rushed over from the city, and several people were in a hurry, eager to move the burial immediately. Master said that the relocation of the burial is not a trivial matter, and it is necessary to choose a day and time, and to prepare some paper objects, three animals, and so on.
After speaking, the master started a game. Whether it is buried or relocated, the time to start the game must look at the palace of death. I looked over, only to see that there is a pattern of Wu plus B in the palace of the door of death, Tianpan Wu plus Di B, this pattern, called 'Qinglong Heling', when it meets Jimen, it is auspicious, when it meets the murderous door, it is fierce, and the door of death is a fierce door, so this is a fierce character, not suitable for lifting things.
The master shook his head, pinched his fingers, and said that it was not suitable for relocation today and tomorrow, and that it would only be possible after seven o'clock the night after tomorrow.
The next day, Master and I tied up the paper figures, paper horses, and other things that needed to be used for the day of the funeral, as well as three animals, the so-called three animals, which were the heads of pigs, cows, and sheep, which were used for sacrifice.
That night, I received a call from Zhao Xin from Thailand, and it has been a few days since Zhao Xin went. On the phone, Zhao Xin was very excited and told us all kinds of interesting stories about Thailand. In a trance, I felt as if I was walking along the beach with her, feeling the breath of the ocean. I turned on my phone on speakerphone and chatted with Master for more than half an hour.
It was on this night that I had a horrible dream. In my dream I saw an island with caves and beaches. There are also people of all skin tones, wearing swimsuits. While I was marveling at the beauty of the island, it suddenly darkened, and it was like the end of the world, and the men seemed to see something terrible, and they went into a frenzied commotion and ran desperately. Immediately after, a behemoth came out of the sea, and 'woo' swallowed everyone in its mouth at once...
Later, I learned that what I saw in my dream was the scene of the tsunami on Phi Phi Island in the southern tip of Thailand, where Zhao Xin was...
I was awakened by the nightmare, and now it was dawn, and the sweat on my body had soaked a large chunk of the quilt. For a moment, I couldn't tell the difference between dream and reality, and I felt that the room was filled with a fishy smell of seawater. I felt that the dream was quite weird, and decided to sue Master.
However, after I got up, I realized that Master had already gone out, and there was still something missing for the funeral at night, so Master went to prepare. Master didn't come back until noon, and asked me to help him sort things out, so he forgot about that dream.
When it was close to dusk, Miss Bai came, and her best friend Xiaoqing was in the same car. That Xiaoqing is very delicate, dressed as a young woman. Immediately behind Miss Bai's car was a truck, which Miss Bai hired to pull things.
We loaded the paper and the sacrificial tribute into the cart and went away. When I came to the intersection of the small road leading to the ancestral cemetery, I saw that there was already a car parked there. There was a large black-painted coffin in the car, and a group of people were squatting on the side of the road, smoking and chatting. In addition to Xiaoqing's relatives, there are some neighbors who came to help.
Master got out of the car, looked at his watch, ordered the coffin to be carried down, and removed the tribute paper from the car. The group marched towards the ancestral tomb.
It was very dark, it was only six o'clock, and he could not see his five fingers, and there was a wilderness on both sides, and it was dark. Someone turned on the flashlight, and sometimes it shone upwards, and the pillar of light swept across the night sky.
Although there were a lot of people, they still seemed small when they walked in the wilderness, and everyone seemed excited and nervous. Miss Bai walked in front of me, her head fluttering with the night breeze from time to time, and bursts of fragrant fragrance penetrated into my nostrils, and from behind, she really looked like the morning star.
There were no words along the way, only the sound of footsteps and the 'creaking' sound of the pole rubbing against the rope on the shoulders of the coffin bearer in front.
