Chapter 33: The Ghost Gate Line
Zhao Haipeng stir-fried a bowl of Liaodong sea salt, saying that he wanted to seal the ghost position. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Seeing that Cai Okra and I didn't understand, Zhao Haipeng shook his head, put down his work first, and told me: "Sealing the ghost position is to seal the 'ghost door line' in the feng shui pattern, so that the ghosts can't get out and out, and are confined to a certain pattern, so that they can catch turtles in the urn." ”
As the name suggests, the ghost gate line is the door line of the ghost walk.
According to the feng shui theory of the ancient Chinese Eight Gates Dunjia, the range of plus or minus five degrees of 45 degrees northeast of the house is called "Table Ghost Gate", and the corresponding space within the range of 45 degrees of southwest plus or minus 5 degrees is called "Ghost Wrapping Gate". And the line that connects the ghost gate and wraps the ghost door is called the "ghost gate line".
The two ends of the ghost door line of the house connect the most sinister entrances and exits and corners of the house, and are the places where the spirits often wander.
Generally, the haunted mansions, it is said that those evil things enter from the table door, go out through the wrapping door, and seal the ghost door line, which is naturally to cut off their access to the door.
If the ghost door is sealed, I won't let the things next to me enter my door, and it won't let the things on Cai Okra's body escape.
After Zhao Haipeng finished talking about his theory, I could barely understand a little, but I didn't quite understand his move of using salt particles to seal the ghost door line.
??
After listening to it, I was confused and said: "It's not Lao Zhao, the question is ...... Can we use salt to seal this line......? I've never heard of it!"
Cai Okra had the same mind as me, and she didn't quite understand it at the time, so she asked Zhao Dao: "Can salt seal the feng shui level?" I've never heard of it, and feudal superstition doesn't make sense, what kind of theory do you have?"
Zhao replied as a matter of course: "Yes, this salt is also called 'Lushi', which is the right in the world, and its function is the same as that of Taishan Stone." ”
After Zhao said this, Xiao Shuihe continued to replace him, adding: "And have you noticed that in the courtyards of those rich families, they all like to put some Taishan stones or crystal stones in the feng shui position to block evil?"
We nodded, this is naturally known, and this trend is especially strong in Shandong, which is rich in Taishan stone, with crystal stones or Taoist gossip mirrors, cinnabar charms to block evil, in my impression it seems that southerners do more.
"Isn't this the end?" Zhao Shuihe said: "If you go back and look at the Compendium of Materia Medica or other ancient books, you will understand that salt comes from the stone department, which is also a kind of stone, and it is a treasure to eliminate evil spirits alongside cinnabar and crystal. ”
Speaking of which, Zhao Haipeng continued: "Of course, the purer the salt, the better the effect, but the current salt is iodized salt, and it can't be pure, I'm afraid of accidents." ”
Therefore, Zhao Haipeng will first pass the salt grains in my home through the water first, remove the iodine, and then fry them in the pot to dry, so that the iodized salt can be deiodized and turned into "pure" salt.
The exquisiteness in the temple of the five viscera ...... There's really a set.
While talking, Zhao Haipeng had already measured the direction with a compass, poured the hot salt in the bowl into the northeast and southwest corners, and stacked them into two pointed hills, and asked Zhao Shuihe for two Huainan incense sticks that were unique to her and used to practice water and Yuntian, and lit them on them.
After a while, the aroma diffused, and in the swirling smoke, I suddenly had a sense of tranquility and mystery, and at the same time deepened my thoughts about the Five Organs Temple and Zhao Haipeng himself.
Whether it's TV or the Internet, I think I've seen a lot of gossip about warding off evil spirits and saving my life, but since I came into contact with Zhao Haipeng in the Five Organs Temple, Ya has completely subverted my thoughts.
I never thought that many seemingly ordinary things around me could become deadly or life-saving things in Zhao Haipeng's hands.
Here, vinegar is no longer called vinegar, but fairy brewing, and salt is no longer salt but a stone, which can be used to seal the ghost gate line after deiodization.
Even in the kitchen knife, there is a little ghost who can be used to defeat him, and he can use it to cut the ghost in a hurry?
After all this, I was really confused by Zhao Haipeng, so I asked Zhao Dao: "Old Zhao, if your methods are really effective, why don't those Taoist monks use them? Why don't we ordinary people know?"
My words made Zhao Haipeng smile helplessly, and then he calmly told me the truth of everything.
And the truth ...... It's really simple.
"Third child, if it weren't for Old Wu Demon, how many chances would you have to see the hell?" and ......" Zhao Haipeng said bluntly: "If those swindlers who go to the rivers and lakes tell you these simple and effective methods of curing ghosts, whose money will they cheat?"
Zhao Haipeng's words left us speechless, but the facts are as he said, but they are correct.
Although Zhao Haipeng understands these ways, he does not have a "ghost" in his heart, so in his opinion, all this is just a means to help others, he is not mystified, nor does he collect money, so he is a good cook, a good cook of His Royal Highness the Master of the Five Organs Temple.
All this he did was the duty of a cook.
Again, the same "trick" is used by magicians to amuse and make a living, while cultists are used to collect money and preach.
And this is the truth of the spell.
...... When Zhao finished his work of blocking the ghost gate, Cai Qiukui, who was a little impatient and waited, sat in the chair and asked, "Chef Zhao, can you cure the stiff head in my body now, right? What kind of food do you want to use to lure him out?"
In this regard, Zhao Haipeng's face suddenly changed, and then he looked at a few of us and said a word.
A word that scares us.
"Blood!" he said.
When I heard the word "blood", I felt very sorry in my heart, because judging from the way Zhao Haipeng stared at us, the blood he said was definitely not chicken blood or pig blood, but must have been taken from us...... Human blood.
"Cure stiffness...... Human blood?" I said tentatively.
"Human blood, and it can't be human blood on Cai Okra. ”
As Zhao spoke, he told us that this stiff head is a half-spirit and half-demon thing, between the real and the illusory, and needs nutrients for growth, so it is particularly interested in human blood raw food, and using human blood can lead it out, and get twice the result with half the effort.
“...... Not too much. Zhao Haipeng took out a small vinegar dish from my kitchen and gestured: "It's done without living at the bottom of the bowl." ”
Zhao Haipeng said it easily, but if he really wanted everyone to implement it, he looked at each other one by one, and no one dared to open this mouth.
Think about it, scratch yourself, put a plate of blood, at least it hurts for a while, and it really hurts people...... On the contrary, there are few people who have that courage.
After staring at it like this, Zhao Haipeng smiled slightly: "I have been a soldier and have shed blood, so even if it is broken, I will not be as afraid as you, so I will come." ”
After listening to Zhao Haipeng's words, I suddenly felt very sorry in my heart.
I'm thinking, how can Lao Zhao always dedicate himself to the lead? Is it true that the greater the ability, the greater the sacrifice?
If that's the case, aren't we being too selfish?
Driven by those complicated feelings, I further grabbed my mouth and said: "Lao Zhao, you can't do it, you have to cook tomorrow, and no one can replace it if you hurt your hand, or ...... I'll come, in the restaurant, count my workload is small. ”
