I really admire the courage of Lantern Festival, in this case, I absolutely dare not look inside, because when I was a child, I heard my grandfather tell me a similar story, now I think about it, maybe it is his old man's personal experience, but also grandfather's story, left me a psychological shadow, I still dare not look through the gap into the dark, for fear of seeing something that should not be seen......

It was when my grandfather was about fifty years old, and I was only six or seven years old that year. I don't know if my grandfather at that age would have participated in the inverted fight, although my grandfather once warned my second uncle: Don't ask about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and don't forget the art of the rivers and lakes. It's a pity that the second uncle lost the first "no", but Jianghu Yi didn't forget it, but he didn't participate in this Jianghu matter.

The second uncle is the one whose temperament is most similar to my grandfather's temperament among my father's siblings, so I think what my second uncle did when he was young, my grandfather must have done it when he was young.

But the grandfather is stronger than the second uncle in that he not only inherited the skills of Faqiu, but also has superb medical skills. For some reason, Grandpa did not practice medicine in a hanging pot. But grandpa's reputation is outside, and people from all over the country, if they have a disease, or even encounter some inexplicable evil diseases, the first thing that comes to mind is grandpa.

Early that morning, the deputy Zhang of Baliqiao ran to his grandfather's house in a panic, and after calling the door open, he didn't even have time to enter the door, and told his grandfather out of breath, saying that his son looked very tired after going out to play at noon yesterday, and hastily ate a few bites of food, and went to sleep on the kang, but he slept until dinner, and the family called him several times and didn't wake up, but he heard him keep muttering a sentence in his mouth: In that crack, there are a pair of eyes!

The family thought that the child might be tired of playing and dreaming, so they didn't pay much attention to it, but until the night, Deputy Zhang's son had been sleeping, and he couldn't wake up anyway.

At this time, the deputy couple of Team Zhang was a little worried, they asked the older people in the village, and the old man told them that it was possible that the child was scared and lost his soul, and he had to summon the soul quickly.

I've heard the idea of conjuring spirits to children since I was a child. It is also one of the most unscientifically based "feudal superstition" methods I have ever seen, but it really has an immediate effect, which is really inexplicable.

My dad himself was a first-hand witness to this kind of thing. In the sixties and seventies, when all women were engaged in productive work, all women had to go down to the fields. At that time, my father was still very young, so my grandmother had to take my father with me. During this period, Dad was playing in the field, and suddenly he didn't know where to run out of the big rabbit, this rabbit had red eyes and droopy ears, and Dad was startled by the coldness at the time, and immediately cried.

Grandma tried her best to calm her crying father until the night. So the grandmother handed the father to the grandfather, took a small padded jacket from the father, and came to the place where she was frightened during the day. Grandma opened the little padded jacket, circled around the place three times in a row, and then hugged the little padded jacket into her arms, turned around and walked straight home. Grandma walked back to her father, who was still crying at home, and she couldn't turn back during this period.

At that time, the grandmother put the little padded jacket in her arms to the father, saying that it was strange, the father immediately stopped crying, and after a while he fell asleep quietly, and when he woke up the next day, his father had nothing to do, as usual. This method of conjuring spirits varies from place to place, but the form is similar, and it is aimed at children who are frightened, and the effect is obvious, and almost every hundred attempts are made.

Why do you use the word "almost", because that day Deputy Zhang came to find his grandfather, and the situation they encountered was an exception. At that time, they tried all kinds of methods to collect the child's soul, but it had no effect, the child was still asleep, and what was even more worrying was that the child's face had become sallow, and his breath had become much weaker, but the sentence was still chanting from time to time: In that gap, there are a pair of eyes!

Many old people in the village came to see it, and felt that this was not just a simple matter of losing the soul, eighty percent of them were evil, and if it went on like this, I was afraid that the child would not survive the next day, and he had to hurry up to invite the master, so he always thought that this was the superstitious Zhang team deputy, and he did not dare to delay any longer at this time, and ran to invite his grandfather in one breath.

After listening to Team Deputy Zhang's description, Grandpa felt that it was no further ado, so he asked Team Deputy Zhang to rush back immediately, make some preparations, clean up himself, and come to the company immediately. When the grandfather rushed to the house of the deputy Zhang team, the deputy Zhang team was waiting anxiously at the door, and when he entered the house, the wife of the deputy Zhang team was sitting on the bed wiping her tears, and when she saw the grandfather coming in, she knelt on the ground and begged the grandfather to save her child.

The grandfather signaled her not to panic, then stepped forward to check on the child, and listened to the child's babbling words.

"Eyes in the crevice?!" Grandpa measured a little, his brows were furrowed, grandpa could see that this child must have received a sudden fright to become like this, but it was useless to collect the soul, I was afraid that he was frozen by something.

The grandfather inquired in detail about where the child had played during the day the day before, and then led someone there. Grandpa looked at that place from afar, and immediately felt that something was wrong, this place was almost a flat river within a radius of more than ten miles, full of weeds and some dwarf shrubs, but there was a mound in the middle of this field, and there was a big locust tree growing on the mound, and this locust tree was so big, standing under the tree to see the whole shade of the tree can be said to cover the sky and the sun.

It was dog days, the sun was scorching outside, and the roasters were sweating, but under the shade of this tree, it was very shady, and people could even feel a chill when they stood under the tree, not only the kind of cold that the body felt, but also a kind of chill from the bottom of the heart.

Grandpa told me that he thought there must be something wrong with the big locust tree. Because he had heard people say before, the willow mulberry acacia poplar neem tree is known as the five ghosts in the tree. There are even folk songs that say: Don't plant mulberries in front, don't plant willows in the back, and don't plant ghosts in front of the door to clap your hands. Grandpa told me this at the time, and I believed it when I was young, but now that my second uncle told me about the background of our Zhuo family, I know that grandpa must be hiding it from me in this part, maybe he doesn't want me to get involved in the circle of inverted buckets anymore.

Not to mention the eyesight of my grandfather and his old man, even I, who has been learning from my second uncle for a few days, know that within a radius of dozens of miles, there is only this big locust tree, the locust tree belongs to the yin, and likes to grow in places with heavy yin qi, and this locust tree is still so huge, from the perspective of feng shui, the point of the locust tree must be the place where the yin qi gathers within a radius of more than ten miles, and there must be something wrong with the mound under this tree.

This kind of Feng Shui bureau is not complicated, grandpa must have seen it at a glance at that time, and he must have seen much more things than I could think of.

Grandpa told Team Deputy Zhang that if he wanted to save his child, the root was here.

Team Zhang nodded again and again, saying that as long as the child could be saved, he would listen to Mr. Zhuo's orders. Grandpa nodded, and immediately asked people to circle the small mound with quicklime, killed two roosters, and poured chicken blood and water on the quicklime, and suddenly the chicken blood with water boiled under the action of quicklime.

Deputy Zhang called a few young men, and the grandfather commanded them: "Saw the tree!" ”

One of them muttered, "This is a hundred-year-old tree, I heard the old man say that this tree has spirituality, so it can't be sawn." ”

Team Deputy Zhang glared, "Who said that!" This statement is feudal superstition, whoever talks nonsense again will be a feudal remnant and will be judged by the people! "Team Zhang is wearing a big hat and buttoning it down, who dares to take it. One by one, the others stopped talking.

Deputy Zhang thought about it, and probably felt that he was a little bit, only allowing the governor to set fires and not allowing the people to light lamps, so he continued: "I tell you, I invited Mr. Zhuo to come here to treat the child, and to cut down this tree to remove the roots of feudal thinking, and this tree is cut down, and the wood is to be used in production and construction." ”

At that time, this was originally a feng shui yin and yang technique, but the result was full of extremely positive construction significance.

Now no one raised any objections, a few young men in the village threw off their arms and began to saw the tree, but I didn't expect that the texture of this locust tree was very hard, several young men took turns to go into battle shirtless, sawing for a long time, the big locust tree fell to the ground with a bang, what is shocking is that a lot of black water flowed out from the fracture of the locust tree. Everyone couldn't help but talk about it.

Grandpa asked Deputy Zhang to quickly get a piece of the child's clothes, shout the child's name around the small mound and turn around three times, run home in one breath and don't look back, and put the clothes on the child when he gets home, and the child is safe.

Team Deputy Zhang did as he said, and sure enough, the moment the clothes covered the child, the child woke up and opened his mouth to shout that he was hungry. The family cried with joy, and knelt down to thank their grandfather, and the people in the village regarded their grandfather as a god.

In fact, I know in my heart that for a descendant of a family like my grandfather, this thing is actually not a difficult thing.

That night, Deputy Zhang left his grandfather at home for dinner, and asked his grandfather to stay at his house that day. Originally, with his grandfather's character, he would definitely not agree, but that time grandpa didn't refuse, because he knew that something would happen the next day. He planned to clean it up before leaving, so as not to leave a problem for the people in the village.

I also asked my grandfather what he was doing it for.

My grandfather told me that people should accumulate virtue and do good deeds to make up for the loss of yin virtue when they do wrong things.

I didn't actually understand it at the time, but now that I think about it, grandpa's words still refer to him, he is talking about himself, often fighting and robbing tombs, how much will consume yin virtue, do some good deeds, and accumulate yin virtue for himself and seek blessings for his children and grandchildren.

Grandpa expected it to be not bad at all, but early the next morning, someone ran to Deputy Zhang's house in a panic and asked, is Old Fairy Zhuo still there?
