Chapter 404: Crooked Neck Old Mother

82_82884The severe cold time in the Northeast is very long, and in the south, the spring flowers may bloom after the New Year, but in the Northeast, the severe winter will not end until mid-April. People always say why people in the Northeast are not afraid of the cold, and if you wear a big padded jacket for at least five months out of 12 months a year, you are also frost-resistant.

In the early spring, the shoots in the field had not yet emerged, and Wushuang sat on the rattan chair left by his grandfather in the Dong family's compound, smoking a small cigarette with sunglasses and passing the time boredly. I don't know what's wrong today, but my right eyelid has been jumping since I woke up in the morning. As the old saying goes, the left eye jumps wealth and the right eye jumps disaster, this sentence the old people firmly believe, so there is a very interesting practice among the people, when the right eyelid jumps, stick a small piece of white paper on the eyelid, what does this mean? The white paper is white, which means: white jump. As for whether it works or not, it's hard to say.

"Master, have you read the newspaper?" Lao Chen ran in from outside.

"What's wrong? What's the matter?"

"It's not a big deal, you know the crooked-necked old mother under the Changchun Freedom Bridge, right?" Lao Chen asked about an old locust tree that grew in the shallows under the bank of the Yitong River Freedom Bridge, this old locust tree has been around for many years, and I heard that Pu Yi had it when he was in power. However, the old tree has long been crying to death, but every time the municipal government does not dare to touch the tree.

For the first time, in the late eighties, the earliest bungalow demolition in Changchun, at that time, there were small bungalows on both sides of the Freedom Bridge, and there were vegetable fields planted by ordinary people near the riverbank. At that time, the demolition team originally planned to cut down the shallows on both sides of the bank and did not mark the trees on the municipal green map.

The first time I went to cut down the old locust tree, the old master with the woodcutter sawed off his own hand. The second time, a gardener from the municipal department personally commanded the excavator to dig up the old tree by the roots, but the shovel of the excavator suddenly fell down after it was lifted, and the gardener was stoned to death on the spot.

By the early 90s, the entire planning on both sides of the Freedom Bridge was complete, except for a lonely dead tree, which affected the city's appearance. However, there have been two incidents in the past few years, and no one dares to touch it this time, and they all say that the old locust tree may have become a sperm. A leader came to ask Dong Ye, Dong Ye only said one sentence, the tree can't be cut down for the time being, and the lower side is connected to the earth's veins, the earth's qi is not exhausted, and forcibly cutting it down will definitely be punished by God.

"Oh, crooked-necked mother, I know that when I was a kid I used to play with the mouse to that hanging toad. The old tree couldn't be moved. What's wrong? There are people who don't believe in evil?" Wushuang asked.

"It's really not a bad thing this time, and I don't know which great immortal the old man and old lady got the guidance of, not that the crooked old mother became an immortal and got the Tao, but it is the true body of the nearby land lord. If an ordinary person has a serious illness or a small disaster, he only needs to kneel in front of it religiously and kowtow a few times, and the illness can be cured. Oh, oh my mother, now it's so evil, go and take a look, the black people kneeling under the Freedom Bridge are overwhelming! Many reporters have gone to take pictures, and the red rope is all tied. "What Lao Chen said is actually not complete, here I will tell you in detail about this strange incident that happened in Changchun that year.

Actually, the cause has to start with a man named Hanako, who has a strange plague, and his body itches in the middle of the night.

Hanako once passed the Freedom Bridge and saw an old locust tree with a crooked neck poking there under the bridge, so she came up with an idea to cure the disease without spending money.

There is a folk saying, which is popular in Northeast oil and gas, saying that "worship the lonely tree as the mother, and the mother can suffer for the child!"

In the late 80s, Changchun was developed on a large scale, and the bank of the Freedom Bridge had already been cut down, so the dead old locust tree was naturally reduced to a lonely tree. I don't know which devout believer was the first to tie a red rope to its branch and burn some dark coins under the tree, presumably a mother who recognized her son as a godmother.

In order to show his sincerity, he was really willing to use his brains, and asked for a rice bowl with his stubble, and he didn't know where to get a white wine or two, and then found a piece of red paper to cover his wrist.

He reverently knelt in front of the crooked old mother and kowtowed three times, and said in his mouth, Huai Gong, Huai Gong, Xiao Huazi, I have been lonely for half a life, without relatives and friends, and I am depressed, and today I have this stubborn disease again, and I really lose confidence in living. If you have mercy on me, bless me with the elimination of my sickness, and if you think I deserve to die, I will find a white silk and hang it on your fork in the evening.

After he kowtowed, this bulk liquor was originally intended to be a filial piety to the crooked neck old mother, but when he opened the layer of red paper, he was dumbfounded, and a small layer of granular substance appeared on the surface of the bowl of liquor. What does it mean to make Hanako Fox suspicious? The crooked-necked old mother has shown me a life-saving elixir?

He thought that he would suffer to live like this anyway, and he would be tortured to death sooner or later if he had no money to see a doctor, and even if it was poison, he would have to gamble!

It's strange to say, I went back to my shack at night and asked Hanako to sleep peacefully, and she didn't get sick. Day 2, Day 3...... This strange disease has never been committed.

Ouch, this thing is amazing, and later, it was spread ten and ten, and the more it was spread, the more evil it became, and in the end, the people said that this old tree was the reincarnation of Hua Tuo, and what kind of land rewarded the elixir...... Anyway, the common people who have any major illnesses and small disasters come to kneel here and learn the process called Hanako to ask for medicine, and once they ask for a quasi-plan, there are granular things in the bowl covered with red paper.

Don't believe it, this is the truth, if there are Changchun people, you can inquire, the old people still remember it vividly.

"Huh...... Why do you always believe this?" said Wushuang with a smile.

"At first, I didn't believe it, last two days, our neighbor's little fat got sick, and the high fever went away for several days, so his mother went to worship the crooked neck and asked for a bowl of medicinal wine for Xiao Pang to pour down, you go and see, the little fat boy is now playing outside lively, old spirit!" Lao Chen said.

At this time, it happened that Lu Haotian, a good buddy at the door, drove to find Wushuang. These two people are also familiar, Lu Haotian comes to find Wushuang and doesn't need to pass it on, the two families are familiar like a family, Wushuang is not at home, Lu Haotian can sleep directly on the Wushuang Kang.

"Lao Tie, Lao Tie, let's go, buddy is taking you out to play?" he shouted at a loud voice
