Discussion of the continuation of the town's things
But after hearing this, I said with some worry: "Isn't this town too simple?" How does it feel like everyone can go to town? ”
My cousin smiled and said, "It sounds like everyone can get down, but it's actually not." For example, the story of putting oil noodles and making people hang, you give ordinary people noodles and let them be put in his enemy's house, he knows where to put them? Hide under the cupboard or bed? Not only is it ineffective, but it may also be eaten by others the next day. And some things can be used as town things, and some can't. The reason why that noodle was able to be used as a town item was because in Edi at that time, the dialect called hanging 'eating noodles'. If you change places and go to Hunan and Guangdong to bury this noodle as a town, it won't work immediately. ”
After listening to it, I summed it up: "That is, ordinary people don't know what to use, they don't know where to go, and they don't know the effect that will be produced. ”
The cousin picked up the teacup on the side, took a sip of water, and said, "Yes, and even if you know some, once you are accidentally discovered, it will be easy to be cracked and counterattacked." ”
When I heard this, I was so interested that I even enlarged my dead fish eyes, and asked my cousin, "What will go wrong if it is cracked?" ”
My cousin whispered four words: "The intestines are rotten." ”
"Intestines are rotten?" I repeated my cousin's words with some disbelief.
The cousin explained very seriously: "If it is a spell to control the town, the person who knows the spell itself has a way to hide himself, but after ordinary people go down to the town, once the town is discovered, it means that their life is grasped by the other side." There are too many ways to kill people in the town, such as throwing them into the oil pan and frying them for a longer time, which will kill people in serious cases. Or if you drip chicken blood on the town's stuff and pop it in the sun, the skin of the person who goes down to the town's stuff will get a festering rash one by one. ”
Seeing my cousin's expression very unnatural when he said the latter paragraph, his body trembled a little, as if he had experienced it personally or seen it and didn't want to think about it, was it my delusion?
I reached out and grabbed my cousin's arm, and as I had expected, my cousin's whole arm was full of hairs and goosebumps. Without waiting for my cousin to speak, I asked, "Looking at your performance, cousin, have you personally experienced or seen the last kind of cousin?" ”
My cousin was very shocked and said, "Why do you say that? ”
I let go of the hand holding my cousin's arm, pointed at the goosebumps and explained with a smile: "Cousin, you look like this, you know it at a glance, it's too obvious." You've got a bunch of goosebumps on you. ”
My cousin smiled with relief: "After two months of staying with me, I have grown so much, I can see people's faces." With that, he reached out to touch my head
I quietly dodged my cousin's hand, avoided the fate of my hairstyle being caught by poisonous claws into a bird's nest, and responded to my cousin: "I've always been a very emotional person, don't interject the topic, answer my questions well." ”
When my cousin saw that I had avoided his touching of the head, he pinched my cheek and began to pinch it with his hand. It's not the first time I've been pinched in two months, and I've ignored it.
My cousin pinched my face and said, "Why do you like to get to the bottom of it so much?" I've seen the latter with my own eyes, but it's disgusting. The whole body is ulcerated, some places have been broken and are bleeding yellow water, and some have suppurated. The red and yellow pus seeped out, and the rash was dense. I want to vomit when I think about it, but be a little considerate of your elders. ”
I gently peeled off my cousin's hand that pinched my face and said, "I'm called learning and never getting tired of burning chaff to take a self-portrait." Seriously, I want to know how that story goes. ”
After listening to my words, my cousin smiled and said, "Yo, you kid still talks in a set way, but to be honest, spare your cousin and me, I really don't want to recall that scene." People have to think more about happy things when they are alive, why force me to recall bad stories. ”
I muttered dissatisfiedly, "If I don't finish listening to that story, I always feel very comfortable." ”
My cousin looked at me and muttered dissatisfied, laughed a few times, and then lay down on the wicker chair like a lump of mud again. Then he said to me, "Otherwise, I'll tell you a story about going down to town with a charm, which is also an incident I dealt with, and it is a story full of joy." ”
I listened to my cousin's words and became energetic, full of happiness and the words "go down to the town with a charm" but I can't beat a piece, I want to hear what kind of charm can be full of happiness under the town, and hurriedly urged my cousin to hurry up.
My cousin's eyes narrowed, and he began to think about the past again, but this time with a hehehehe smile on his face, the tone of the whole person was full of joy and said: "That was when I learned from the craftsman and wanted to open a company, the start-up fund was a little insufficient, so I started to take some small jobs, at that time, I also needed money too much, no matter how small the mosquito was, it was meat, as long as it was not harmful, I would take it." It was also at that time that I took a small job, so now the people around me have a bit of a bad thing to do with ghosts and ghosts, and they have to come to me to ask.
One day, an aunt in the town came to me, and because she was greedy for cheapness, she casually found a craftsman on the side of the street who hung a sign to do carpentry work at a low price, and went to make a new pigtrough for her pigsty. That is, the trough used for the pigs to eat. The money she gave was too low, and she offended the craftsman, who played a talisman under the pig trough, and the pigs did not dare to eat, and the pigs were starved to death. ”
I raised my hand again, and I asked my cousin, "What is the low price that caused the charm to be placed over there?" ”
My cousin thought for a moment and said, "This happened in the mid-to-late eighties, when the average salary on our side was thirty or forty yuan a month, and fifty yuan a month was the sky." She gave the craftsman a piece or two, but let the craftsman beat the pig trough relatively large, and there is a person who will quickly make it good, and generally should give at least five or six or seven pieces, after all, a pig trough can be used for a long time after it is laid, and ordinary craftsmen can offer ten or twenty yuan. But these are not the main problems, the key is that I didn't give that person lunch, that person ran to work at noon, and didn't give anyone anything to eat until the afternoon was done, and the aunt didn't speak well, you know, middle-aged and elderly women, when they bargained, they were quite harsh. The young man has a hot temper, where can he stand it. ”
After listening to my cousin's explanation, I still don't know much about prices, after all, I was young at that time, and I didn't have any concept of money, in fact, my concept of money is quite weak now. But I was too embarrassed to say that I didn't understand, so I had to deal with it a few times.
My cousin continued: "I went over there to take a look, and when I checked it again, I knew that it was put down in the pig's trough, but it was not a powerful thing. I casually drew a false talisman and broke it, and the aunt looked blind. I still can't believe that this is good, I said that if I don't believe it, I can feed the pigs and see.
You don't know how pitiful those pigs are hungry, as soon as the pig food is poured in, they rush in and grab it. The matter was settled, and I received a red envelope with ten yuan in it. You say, if you gave this money to the craftsman, wouldn't there be nothing? ”
I listened to it while um, my cousin asked this rhetorically, and I was stunned for a moment. Is that the end of it? I asked my cousin, "Is there anything funny about this?" ”
The cousin said, "Don't worry, the show starts here." I went home when I was done. The next day my aunt came to me again, saying that the pigs were starting to stop eating again, and asked me to run again. I didn't believe it at first, but it's not good to take the money and not go, so it's better to go over and make a show.
When I got to the place to see it together, I was stunned, yes, the pig trough was still beaten, or the one I untied yesterday. Normally, I don't know what to do about how the spell that has been solved can be resurrected. I had been dealing with these things for years, and it was the first time I had seen a spell that could be resurrected. ”
I listened to my cousin's story, and my cousin continued: "I haven't seen anything like this, and I don't know how to do it, so let's change a powerful talisman first, and the spell will be lifted as soon as I draw it." I returned home uneasy, still worried about a resurgence. When I woke up one night, my nightmare had officially begun, and the spell had returned. I had to solve it every day, I tried all kinds of methods, and I even took out the token given by the master I met on the mountain back then, and it was with the ancestors and horses. The result is lifted, and it will still be resurrected the next day.
I'm going to be driven crazy, and I even want to scold myself, what did I offend for ten dollars? It's the fear of the unknown, and the despair of powerlessness. Although his resurgence is against the pig, what if it bounces off me? But I was going to open a company at that time, and I must not break my face, after all, making pigs dare not eat, this line of work is just a very ordinary town law. If I don't handle it well, the face I have accumulated over the past few years will be wiped out. No matter how scared I am, I'm going to have to catch the ducks on the shelves. So I decided to make a break with that. ”
I listened attentively, and when I heard the climax, I forgot even the response, and my cousin was also very energetic, and the whole person was excited: "I decided to compete with that side, saying so, but I was still very scared, so I found a hunter of Meishanfa and borrowed his mountain hunting dog and fire system." Let my aunt's family go to live outside, and I live alone, I want to see how it comes back to life. At that time, I was really panicked, I was alone in the middle of the night holding the fire tong, and I didn't dare to speak, and it was dark all around, and I didn't dare to light an oil lamp. Suddenly, the hound began to bark, and there was a sound of biting, and I felt a pang in my heart, and hurriedly put iron sand on the fire and lit a kerosene lamp. But I still didn't dare to go out, and I was hesitating, when I heard a man shouting, saying that he was going to be bitten to death by a dog, and that he should be killed. I hurriedly rushed out, asked the hound to stop, and pointed at the man with the fire, and the fire was held up by the fire, and I was so frightened that I immediately begged for mercy and said that I would never dare to come again, and guess what? ”
I replied impatiently, "How do I know what's going on?" Hurry up. ”
"The truth about the resurgence of that spell is that he touches it every night and does it again," said his cousin. ”
My cousin laughed when he finished speaking, and although I didn't laugh as badly, the corners of my mouth curled up at this strange incident.
My cousin laughed and said, "You don't know, I'm afraid of it, I thought it was a bad person, but I didn't expect it to be such a strange thing." ”
I asked, "And what happened to this strange thing in the end?" ”
My cousin said: "Now he works in my renovation company, and when I caught him, he was afraid that I would shoot him, so he said everything. He made fox friends in his early years, and was taken crooked into the bureau for two years, and after he came out, his family refused to recognize him and kicked him out. The people in his town knew what he was doing, and he couldn't find a job, so he went to the village near the town, but no one would give him a job.
In the end, he finally came under the door of a craftsman in his seventies, who had no children, no relatives and no reason, and the reason for the craftsman to accept him was because he was too old and needed someone to take care of him. Most people would not worship such an old craftsman as a master. Because of the age, it is difficult to take care of it, the second is that people are old and can't work, and they will lose their previous customer sources in a short time, and the third is because the elderly are no longer able to teach their disciples, and even if someone goes to apprenticeship, it is difficult to learn. But that strange guy was already a lost dog at that time, and it would be good if someone was willing to take him in. So he went in and learned the carpenter's trade and some little spells.
Within two years, the craftsman was old and dead. He used the money left by the craftsman to hold a grand funeral for his family, and after that, he didn't have much to eat, and he didn't have any connections to find work. I had to put up a sign on the side of the road to see if I could have a job, and I would give it to the town because the aunt had a bad mouth and inadvertently said something bad about the old craftsman, so he wanted to punish her. ”
I thought about it carefully, and there were contradictions in my words, so I pointed it out and said, "Then why does he have to keep playing talismans?" Does he want to kill her pig so much? ”
The cousin said: "Oh, that's because he knew that I solved it, and at that time I was very famous in the realm of Shili Eight Village, and he thought that if he could win me, wouldn't he be able to become popular." You can mix spells and eat this bowl of rice. ”
After listening to it, I sighed: "The story behind this story is not happy at all, but if you don't read the story behind it, it is quite happy." But knowing the story behind it, you can't laugh! ”
My cousin glanced at me: "Aren't you the one who likes to get to the bottom of things?" So don't be too deep, just be happy. Besides, this story is also a happy ending, and the final development is also unexpectedly strange, and it is already a very happy story. ”
When I heard my cousin say this, I couldn't help but ask, "What about the unhappy thing?" ”
After I said this, my cousin's expression suddenly became gloomy for a moment, and there was some sadness in his eyes. As if I remembered something bad, I was a little uneasy, did I step on my cousin's minefield?
After a few seconds, my cousin regained his gentle and kind expression and said to me: "As long as people are happy, don't do things that hurt nature and reason, just live happily."
I was stunned by my cousin's aura just now, and I couldn't speak for a while. I can only say "uh-huh" twice to follow my cousin's words.
My cousin said, "It's not much time to have lunch, so let's take a nap for a while."
Seeing this, I had no choice but to close my eyes, adjust my breathing, and catch up on a good night's sleep before eating.
