As the saying goes, it depends on the owner to beat the dog, they all say that the land lord has to give the Taoist face, but that also has to give the land lord face, if you don't give it, even the Taoist priest is helpless, originally thought that Liu Cheng would talk to the people of the land temple, and even came forward to beg, but I didn't expect Liu Cheng to directly slap the people of the land temple, which is not equivalent to indirectly slapping the land lord in the face.

I was dumbfounded, and it wasn't until the two imps from the land temple disappeared that I said to Liu Cheng in a daze, "You hit them directly, what if the land lord comes to the door to find trouble?" ”

Liu Cheng said nonchalantly, "People are good at being bullied, horses are good at being ridden, people are afraid of evil ghosts, ghosts are also afraid of evil people, no matter how powerful the people of the Land Temple are, they are just ghosts, it is precisely because you are respectful to them on weekdays that they have developed their arrogant and arrogant habits, if you are not afraid of them, it should be their turn to be afraid of you." ”

That being said, after all, our lives are still in the hands of the Lord of the Land, so isn't he afraid that the Lord of the Land will cross out our names in a fit of anger?

But seeing Liu Cheng so confident, I can't say anything, I just want to go home and quickly burn some paper for the land master, apologize, my father beat the land master with a stick, he didn't pursue it, maybe he can forgive Liu Cheng for beating him.

After the two little ghosts left, Liu Cheng directly turned around and pushed open Zhang Wen's door, and led me into the house, and when I entered the house, I saw Zhang Wen leaning back on the chair, staring at the roof, as if he was in a daze, but in fact he was out of breath.

"Sister Zhang Wen?" I shouted tentatively, but I didn't see any reaction from Zhang Wen.

Liu Cheng stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Zhang Wen's eyes, and said, "Dreams are good and bad, dreams are laughing and crying, you have a nightmare, but the reality is the opposite, people should live in the moment, not in dreams, close your eyes and sleep well, come and tell me what you dreamed of tomorrow." ”

After Liu Cheng finished speaking, he shook his hand in front of Zhang Wen's eyes, Zhang Wen really closed his eyes and began to breathe steadily, I was amazed, Liu Cheng beckoned me to bring Zhang Wen a quilt to cover her.

Liu Cheng and I did not leave Zhang Wen's house that night, and kept sitting next to him, during which I kept thinking, why did Zhang Yingying die after listening to the words of the land lord, grandpa listened to my words and lived again, and Zhang Wen listened to Liu Cheng's words and lived.

I didn't understand the reason for this when I thought of dawn, but Liu Cheng seemed to see what I was thinking, and he said to me without waiting for me to ask, "Disaster comes from the mouth, illness comes from the mouth, most of the disasters in this world are caused by speech, people are the same, and having no opinion is the common disease of you people, if you want not to be harmed by them, you have to only believe yourself, and you can't believe what others say." ”

I asked, "Grandpa, can't I believe what they say?" ”

Liu Cheng nodded and said, "Yes, I can't believe it." Liu Cheng said and stretched out his finger and pointed it on my chest, which made me feel so cold that I was excited, and then he said, "Observe the mind first, and then listen and hear, this is called contemplation and stopping." ”

During the period when I was chatting with Liu Cheng, it was already dawn outside, Zhang Wen next to him twisted his body, and then slowly opened his eyes, and saw me and Liu Cheng sitting next to him, and jumped up in fright, she naturally knew me, but she didn't know Liu Cheng, so she stared at us and asked, "Sun Qing, when did you come into my house?" At night, let the villagers know that it's time to talk about you behind your back. ”

I was about to tell her about last night's events, but Liu Cheng stood up and interrupted me, looked at Zhang Wen and smiled slightly, "Did you have a nightmare last night?" Can you tell me about that dream? ”

Zhang Wen fell into deep thought after hearing this, and it took a while to react, and suddenly stared at Liu Cheng, "I remembered, did you talk to me last night?" ”

Liu Cheng said with a smile on his face, "That's what I said." ”

Zhang Wen said, "I dreamed that two little ghosts came to me, saying that I was a melon without a gourd, and it was useless to lose my soul, and they asked me to follow my feelings to find my soul, so I followed my feelings to find it, and finally arrived in front of the Yishan Temple, and before I could go in, I heard you say don't believe the things in the dream, so I didn't go in, and came back." ”

"Mountain Temple?" Liu Cheng repeated the sentence.

Zhang Wen nodded with certainty, "The one built on the mountain should be the mountain temple, I think my soul is in it, but I didn't go in to see it." ”

"Do you remember how you got to the mountain temple?" Liu Cheng asked again.

Zhang Wen shook his head, "I don't remember." While talking and thinking, as if he suddenly remembered something, he looked at me and said, "By the way, I saw you and your father on the way to the mountain temple, I saw you and your father being hung on the tree, but no matter how I talked to you, you ignored me, and finally you jumped off the tree and ran, leaving only your father still hanging on the tree, fortunately it was a dream, if you and your father really had an accident, the old Sun family would be dead." ”

When Liu Cheng heard this, he immediately stood up in shock, "Oh no, hurry home, something happened to your father." ”

said that he was about to go out in a hurry, but was blocked by the morning sun, and I knew that the ghost was afraid of the sun, so I asked Zhang Wen to take the oil-paper umbrella and handed it to Liu Cheng, who held the umbrella and didn't go quickly.

I trotted all the way to follow him, and before I went back to the house with him, I saw the eldest grandfather coming towards us in a hurry, and saw us hurriedly saying, "Master Liu, something happened, Sun Qing's father hanged himself!" ”

When I heard this, my head was stunned, and I buzzed, and I went home with Liu Cheng and my grandfather without any assertiveness like the walking dead.

As soon as I arrived at the house, I saw the villagers gathered around, pointing at the old locust tree next to my house, my mother was crying under the old locust tree, and my grandfather didn't pretend to be asleep, sitting next to the old locust tree and smoking a big cigarette.

And my father was hung straight on the old locust tree, and his face was no longer bloody.

After we arrived, the grandfather asked the villagers to quickly get out of the way, and let me and Liu Cheng go under the old locust tree, Liu Cheng looked at his father hanging on the locust tree and frowned, and I froze next to me, wanting to cry but couldn't cry.

It was the first time for the people in the village to see Liu Cheng, and they saw Liu Cheng dressed strangely and holding an umbrella in broad daylight, so they asked the grandfather, "Which one is this?" ”

The eldest grandfather said, "The Taoist priest who invited you, don't ask first, let Master Liu see what is going on." ”

In the countryside where ghosts and gods are believed, Taoist priests are very mysterious people in their eyes, and when they learned that Liu Cheng was a Taoist priest, they cast strange glances at Liu Cheng, and Liu Cheng stared at his father's corpse for a while, and then turned to the villagers and said, "Sun Qing and his father died strangely, and the corpse can't be moved for the time being, so hang it like this first, and you can know what is going on at night." ”

When the grandfather heard this, he immediately said, "Master Liu, this is a little inappropriate, people have to go to the earth for peace when they die, so if they can't go to the world and don't touch the ground, they can't be reborn." ”

Grandpa, who had been smoking next to him, spoke at this time, "Listen to Master Liu's arrangement, you don't want to see it, what should you do, beware of finding you next." ”

Grandpa spoke, and grandpa could only agree, and the people in the village were eager to see the excitement, just after seeing the excitement, they didn't plan to stay here, after all, they were really afraid that it would be their turn when the time came.

In the following hour, all the villagers dispersed, and the grandfather and grandfather built a simple shed for the father to protect him from the sun.

My mother hugged the old locust tree and cried, I looked at my father on the tree, and then looked at the mother who was crying with red and swollen eyes, and finally burst into tears, and I really felt less uncomfortable when I cried.

During this period, Liu Cheng called me back to the house, and asked me to take out a stack of yellow table paper, cut it into strips of paper according to his request, and then Liu Cheng took out the brush and cinnabar that my father had borrowed from his grandfather's house, and began to draw some crooked lines on the yellow table paper.

After the painting, he first handed me a one, and said with a serious expression, "Your family should be robbed of cutting off your children and grandchildren, and now that you have broken off your children, you should be cut off from your grandchildren next, this talisman can temporarily keep you safe, you must not get dirty or wet when you hold it." ”

I nodded with tears in my eyes and put away the charm.

Grandpa and his mother were guarding their father's corpse outside, and the eldest grandfather took his leisure time to enter the house, stepped forward to look at the talisman drawn by Liu Cheng, and then asked Liu Cheng, "What did the old Sun family offend, even the descendants will not let go." ”

Liu Cheng listened and took another talisman and folded it to the eldest grandfather, and said, "The affairs of the Sun family are too complicated, you are busy with it, it is difficult to guarantee that you will not find you, you also take a talisman, and you can save your life when it is dangerous." ”

The grandfather took the talisman and put it in his pocket.

Then Liu Chengcai answered the grandfather's previous question, "I have a rough idea of what is going on, but I have to wait for the evening to make sure." ”
