"The village chief at that time was not the current Director Ma." Chu Xin specially emphasized a sentence, for fear that I would misunderstand Director Ma, the current village head of the city.

"Hahaha, I can understand that the current Director Ma is in the prime of life, and your grandfather is young, so I guess he hasn't spoken yet."

Chuxin nodded, very satisfied with me, and continued: "As soon as I arrived at the village chief's house, the village chief's daughter-in-law greeted me. The village chief's daughter-in-law's surname is Ma, her name is Ma Lian, she has a loud voice and is warm-hearted. As soon as I saw my grandmother leading the two children, she ran over with tears in her eyes, so she hurried over, hugged the second uncle and said to the grandmother: Is it your family's lack of virtue that should beat you, such a good daughter-in-law is also willing to fight, go, the eldest sister will make the decision for you, and pick up this calf. As he spoke, he grabbed his grandmother's sleeve with his big hand and was about to walk in the direction of his grandfather's house, muttering as he walked. Grandma was already crying at this time, choked up and said: Sister, it wasn't him who beat me, I don't know what to do...... What an evil disease, when I left in the morning, it was fine, but when I came back at noon, it was not good, and I spit out green water. ”

Ma Lian frowned when she heard this, and said to her grandmother: "Go, I'll go to your house with you to have a look." The two walked briskly to grandma's house. As soon as she stepped through the door, she smelled a pungent stench, Ma Lian frowned, and slowly walked to her grandfather's side. Who knew that at this time, the second uncle in his arms cried loudly, how could he not coax it, grandma took the second uncle from Ma Lian's hand and coaxed it, while anxiously asking Ma Lian: Eldest sister, can you tell what is going on with him? Ma Lian whispered to her grandmother: Big sister, don't worry, I see that it's noon, my family is about to come back, he spent two years in middle school with Tulang when he was a child, and when your eldest brother comes back to show him, you look at him here first, and I will look for him. After speaking, he hurried out of the courtyard. ”

There are detailed character dialogues in the story of Chuxin, I'm curious, who told her these conversations, among the parties, except for this Ma Lian, only her grandmother has the conditions to be present, but obviously they are not willing to come from the mouth of the witnesses, so I immediately judged that the story is more serious, maybe the story is true, but the version in Chuxin's mouth is not necessarily true.

"And then?" I showed that my appetite was hung up, and I continued to cater to my original desire to perform.

That's when my grandmother was relieved. Carrying the second uncle on his back, he covered the green slime that his grandfather spit out in the house with ashes and threw the shovel out. When I went out, my grandmother glanced into the distance again, and the big bird and eagle were gone. But when I turned around, I saw that standing on the roof of my house, my grandmother was frightened, and the big eagle immediately flapped its huge wings and flew away. ”

"It's that big eagle again, I saw one yesterday, it can't be so coincidental, right?" I panicked.

Chuxin glanced at me and said, "We do have eagles here, so I can't say for sure, what was the eagle that grandma saw at that time?" ”

"Oh, that shouldn't be, listening to you say such an evil sect, it shouldn't be what I've seen."

Chu Xin continued: "After a while, I saw Ma Lian come to grandma's house with the village chief and a few enthusiastic villagers. The village chief walked quickly to his grandfather's side, gasping for breath because he had just run too fast. He carefully plucked his grandfather's eyes open. The village chief's eyebrows were gloomy, and his grandfather's eyes were completely bloody, and he tried his grandfather's snort again. He quickly withdrew his hand again, because his grandfather's snort was too hot, and touched his grandfather's forehead again. Then he turned around and shouted to everyone: Hurry up, whoever has the cool well water, come over with two buckets! Without waiting for the village chief to finish the following words, Wang Qingshan, who lived not far from his grandfather's house, turned around and picked up the bucket, flattened his burden, and trotted towards his own well. Seeing that someone went to fetch water, the village chief asked again: "Big sister, the eldest brother burns too badly, how did you get this disease?" Grandma cried again as she spoke, and told the story of her grandfather's illness one by one. At this time, Wang Qingshan gasped for breath and put two buckets of freshly drawn water in the house. When Grandma saw the cold water coming, she hurriedly took a towel, moistened it and put it on Grandpa's forehead. The village chief frowned and whispered to his grandmother: "Big sister, I don't think the eldest brother has a real disease, and he would have been guilty of going out in the morning in the fog, maybe he was out of the road (evil disease), and he was rushed to (possessed) by something. Where did grandma experience such a thing, and hurriedly asked: Village chief, what do you say this can be done? The village chief looked at his grandmother's anxious appearance and couldn't bear to say: Don't be afraid, eldest sister, don't we still have Jitai Zhenren to bless us, Jitai Zhenren can pinch and calculate, and will cure evil diseases, let your sister-in-law take a few catties of red sorghum with you tomorrow, and go up the mountain to ask him to come down to see the eldest brother. ”

Hearing this, I finally found the information I really wanted from the layers of fog, and this story was related to Jitai Zhenren, so I had to look it up.

"I was worried that I didn't have the right focus to investigate, but I didn't expect you to send it to the door yourself." I secretly said in my heart, "There are many exaggerated parts of this story, first said that the grandfather of the original heart strayed into the ghost set, and then moved out of Jitai Zhenren to save the life and help the wounded, how does this sound like an advertising slogan that he packaged for himself, just ask Jitai Zhenren to enjoy the worship and belief of the altar village for generations, he always has to show a little 'miracle' out, in order to be convincing, if there is this political achievement project, then the people are not each to worship him like a god!" ”

Thinking of this, I have my own analysis of the whole story, which is very likely to be a drama written and directed by Ji Tai Zhenren, the legend of this "ghost collection" has a deep influence in the area of Altar Village, indicating that Ji Tai Zhenren mainly uses this tool to control the spiritual world of the villagers.

The village chief and the other villagers said a few words of relief on the side, and when they saw that there was nothing wrong, they all went home for lunch. Grandma was grateful, but when she left, she didn't do much to take care of her grandfather and two children. Ma Lian stayed at her grandmother's house, coaxing her father and second uncle who kept crying, while comforting her grandmother. That night, my grandmother didn't sleep all night, and kept changing towels and fanning my grandfather. As soon as the day dawned, my grandmother was about to go out, but it was another foggy morning, so my grandmother went into the cellar and took out two jars of home-brewed red sorghum, and filled dozens of eggs, ready to give them to the old gentleman when she went up the mountain. The eggs were prepared by the grandfather when he was preparing for the confinement of his grandmother, but the grandmother was never willing to eat them, and this time they came in handy. Although my grandmother had not been in the village for a few years, she also knew that it was unusual for two days of foggy weather to be like this. There was no way but to wait until the fog cleared before daring to go out. Finally, the fog cleared, the sun had risen high, and the grandmother sent her father and second uncle to Wang Qingshan's house, and asked Wang Qingshan's daughter-in-law to help take care of them. I went back to look at the unconscious grandfather again, and then left with peace of mind. ”

Although Chu Chu told a lot of plots related to her grandfather before and after, it seemed a little procrastinating when it came to the key point. Like what kind of eggs, coaxing children, these irrelevant plots are filled in, even if they can have a certain effect of enriching the storyline, but after more than that, it will make people doubt the authenticity of the story.

Ma Lian was anxiously waiting for her grandmother at home, and the two chatted for a few words, not daring to delay any more time, so they went to Jitai's real person's house. At that time, the village had not built a road to the top of the mountain, although the mountain was not high, but the road up was extremely difficult to walk, only a winding path, both sides of the road were overgrown with a person to come to the height of the Lala vine and Artemisia, if you do not protect your face and walk back and forth, you can scrape your head into a blood gourd. In this way, Ma Lian and her grandmother supported each other and came to Jitai Zhenren's house. As soon as they arrived at the door, grandma and Ma Lian were a little tired, sat on the big stone on the hillside and rested for a while, looking down, at the foot of the mountain is a small river, a small boat on the river, slowly passing by the river. There are several households on both sides of the strait, and the smoke is faint. ”

I guess that a lot of brush and ink is used here to render the environment near Jitai Zhenren's home, in order to show the Tao of Jitai Zhenren, and generally the residence chosen by this kind of Taoist person is also an excellent place for feng shui.

After a while, Grandma and Ma Lian wiped the sweat from their faces with their cuffs, got up and picked up eggs and wine jars and went straight to the real person's house. Approaching, found a huge black dog tied in the yard, saw the arrival of the living, barking non-stop, someone in the house heard the sound and pushed the door out, only to see a kind septuagenarian old man, after seeing Ma Lian and grandma happily said: Ma Lian is coming, come into the house, come into the house. Grandma and Ma Lian walked into the old man's house one after another, and as soon as Grandma entered the house, she saw a statue of a god enshrined in front of the front room, and a simple iron sword hanging on the wall on the right side. The two came to the main house and put down the wine jar and eggs in their hands, and after Ma Lian sat down, she said slowly to the old man: "Real person, I came here to let you help this big girl's man see a doctor." After Ma Lian finished speaking, her grandmother picked up the two jars of wine and eggs she brought from home and said: Our family is poor and we don't have anything to get, so you can take these two jars of wine and these eggs first. The old man saw the wine and eggs that his grandmother took, and said: "The girl is polite, I will take this wine first, you take the eggs back, I see that you are pale, and the fetal gas around your body has not dissipated. Eh, that's hard for you. Let's go, I'll take a look at it. Grandma thanked her gratefully. ”

Hearing this, I was a little puzzled, not that I suspected that the altar real person in this story appeared in the face of a kind and kind old man, but I was surprised that Ji Tai Zhen was already an eighty-year-old man at that time, so many years have passed, if Ji Tai Zhen Zhen is still alive, what age should it be, and will the person who is looking for Wang Qiang really be him?

I'm afraid this is a big question mark.
