Just when I was puzzled, Chu Chu continued: "Although Jitai Zhenren is old, he walks with a steady pace, and he is not inferior to young people at all. He asked about his grandfather's symptoms as he walked, and just halfway up the mountain, Ji Tai Zhenren stood on the slope of the back mountain, looked at the village in the distance, his eyes flashed, his brows were furrowed, and he asked: Has anything strange happened in the village recently? Ma Lian was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and replied: There is no strange thing, but I feel that the fog is much more than before, and there will be a heavy fog at the end of the three days, and the people in the village dare not go out, and the crops have been delayed a lot. The old man nodded after listening to Ma Lian's words, his expression solemn. ”

"Did Jitai see something?" I asked.

Chuxin sold a pass, and said with a smile: "Mr. Lin, don't worry, I haven't finished talking yet, you listen to me and go on slowly." ”

I smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I interrupted you, you continue." ”

Later, the nurse led Jitai Zhenren and Ma Lian to continue walking home. But before Grandma could get home, she heard the shouting of the crowd coming from the direction of her house, and Grandma ran over quickly when she heard the sound, and saw that half of the village had almost gathered in the courtyard of Grandma's house. When my grandmother saw this, she suddenly had a bad premonition. Grandma pushed aside the crowd and saw that grandpa was talking nonsense in the yard, his voice was sharp when he spoke, it sounded very harsh, and there were red blood stains on the corners of his mouth. Grandma saw such a scene, just about to step forward, she saw Wang Qingshan's daughter-in-law running over with her father and second uncle in her arms and said anxiously: Big sister, you are back, in the morning you just walked for a while, I saw your yard, the chicken nest turned upside down, thinking that there was a yellow skin eating chickens, ran over to see, your family Jieshan is lying in the chicken nest do not know what to churn, take a closer look, see that he is biting the neck of the chicken to suck blood, the eyes are red, like the evil ghosts of the underworld, I don't see it, hurry up and take advantage of noon everyone is back, Come and see what's going on, it's been stable for a while just now, and it's tossed again. Grandma's eyes were full of tears after hearing this, but then she held back her crying. ”

"This ......," I said with a look of horror.

At this time, Ji Tai Zhenren also walked over, there was a commotion in the crowd, and they all avoided it, Ji Tai Zhenren's expression did not change, but he said calmly to the village chief: You all let go first. The village chief saw that it was Jitai Zhenren who came, and suddenly had the backbone, and then and the other villagers let go of the grandfather who was half-lying on the ground struggling and roaring, and retreated into the crowd, and the grandfather who was not restrained was like a demon with a hideous smile, and rushed to Jitai Zhenren with red eyes, who knew that Jitai Zhenren did not hide or retreat, and everyone was sweating for it, the village chief and others were just about to step forward to stop it, but when the crazy grandfather pounced in front of Jitai Zhenren, the real person did not know when there was a bright needle in his hand, not waiting for everyone to see clearly, Grandpa was already convulsive and lying on the ground, and a silver needle on the Tianzhu acupoint on the back of his grandfather's neck had been half-submerged. Without waiting for everyone to react, Jitai Zhenren shouted to everyone again: Hurry up and find the yellow skin within twenty zhang of this courtyard. The villagers muttered in their hearts at this time, the yellow skin was originally an evil play, and the people in the village were taboo, plus the weasel had already run away when he saw people, where to find it! ”

"This Jitai Zhenren is really a god, and he actually relied on a silver needle to deal with the evil spirit?" I was amazed, and I was extremely impressed by the methods of Jitai Zhenren.

"That's not it, Jitai Zhenren is the god of our village, the guardian saint, with him, it can ensure that our village is smooth and the country and the people are safe." Chu Xin said happily, "At that time, Jitai Zhenren saw everyone's doubts and said: The yellow skin can't move now, if you don't catch it now, you will run away in a while, and everyone will suffer." When everyone heard, how could this work? Picked up a hoe and a stick, and went around Grandma's house to find the yellow skin that Jitai Zhenren said. ”

Although I knew that the story must have ended with the discovery of the yellow-skinned man, I still showed curiosity and asked, "Did you find it?" ”

"Not only did I find it, but this yellow skin is still very evil!" Chu Xin changed the conversation again and said: "Within a moment, I heard someone shouting: Oh mom, here, I found it." I don't know when a big eagle flew at the edge of the village, hovering in the distance, Jitai Zhenren glanced at it thoughtfully. When everyone came to the weasel, they found that this yellow-skinned man had bright fur, but he had a handful of beard under his forehead, and he looked like an old man, but his movements were the same as that of his grandfather in the yard, lying flat on the ground, constantly twitching, and it was extremely painful to look at it. Jitai Zhenren strode closer, looked at the weasel lying on the ground and scolded angrily: This beast! Then he asked everyone for a piece of red cloth, wrapped the yellow skin, and said while wrapping it: Eh, if you don't cultivate well, you will come out to harm people, and you will break this hundred years of cultivation! ”

"Why is it that eagle again?" I continued.

"Listen to me." Chuxin paused and said, "Jitai Zhenren then put the yellow skin under the big tree outside the courtyard and looked at the giant eagle in the distance. Grandma has been guarding by Grandpa's side all the time, not daring to make more movements, until Jitai Zhenren pulled out the silver needle on the back of Grandpa's neck, and then carried Grandpa to the house with everyone. At this time, grandma's heart was relaxed. Jitai Zhenren looked at his grandfather's pupils again, and said to his grandmother in a low voice: Although this yellow skin has been pulled out, it seems that there is still something dirty attached to the body, and it is far more powerful than this yellow skin. Jitai Zhenren has reached the age of ancient times, although he is a little stronger than the average old man, but just now he has been running all the way, and it took a lot of energy to reduce the yellow skin, and now his forehead is full of beads of sweat. Grandma poured a cup of hot water for Jitai Zhenren and asked anxiously: Zhenren, how can I cure his illness? Jitai Zhenren drank a sip of hot water and wiped the sweat on his forehead with his hands, and said: He may have been in the fog, and accidentally ran into the ghost to catch the market, this ghost rush to the market is in this river for many years The ghost has been drowned, and after the death of ordinary people, its essence returns to the sky, the flesh returns to the earth, and the blood returns to the water, but these people who drown in the water, after death, the corpses flow with the river, the tides and sunsets drift and fluctuate, and they cannot die, so they are very resentful, wandering and wandering in the place of drowning, and in the foggy day, when the yin qi is extremely heavy, they land on the shore and lay down illusions, Once a passerby passes by, he will be confused by illusions and will be regarded as a substitute for the dead. Grandma didn't seem to understand and asked: Real person, since you are a drowned ghost, why was you washed up by the yellow skin again? Ji Tai Zhenren said slowly: This beast has been cultivating in the mountains for nearly a hundred years, and it will not harm people, but your husband has just escaped a catastrophe, and his yang energy is extremely weak, so this beast took the opportunity to be confused and entered the village to suck the essence and blood of poultry. Grandma didn't seem to understand, and asked, "What should the real person do now?" Jitai Zhenren thought for a while and said helplessly: Take a pen and paper, I will write you a list, buy according to this, and you can't leave it behind, as for whether you can save it, it depends on his creation. I don't know what virtue my ancestors have accumulated, and I can still live until now when I meet a ghost. Grandma didn't dare to delay time, took the list and went out, took a boat to the downstream town to purchase the items written on the list, grandma took a closer look at the list, frowned, because the things written on it grandma have not been touched, I don't dare to buy it indiscriminately. ”

"Did you buy it?" I asked nervously.

"It's not a big town, and my grandmother asked as she walked, and soon found the address written on the paper. But this house is extremely remote, and if you don't ask around town, you really don't know when you will find it. The house is surrounded by people who have been looted by bandits in previous years, and bullet holes are faintly visible on the wall, but what makes my grandmother strange is that it is hot in summer, and it is not dark yet, so the windows and doors of this house are closed, and the color of the house is shady, which makes the whole house look ghostly. Grandma stepped forward and knocked lightly on the door twice, but no one answered, but she heard the footsteps of an old man, as if every step was extremely difficult, and the soles of her shoes rubbed against the ground to make a sound of 'repeatedly'. After a while, an old woman walked out of the door with difficulty, the old man was hunched over, his face was covered with ravines and wrinkles, like dehydrated dried dates, his upper body was covered with a shabby Hanfu, and his feet were wearing patched three-inch golden lotus, and he walked with great difficulty, as if he had just climbed out of the coffin board. Asked weakly: Girl, what's the matter? How did you find my old lady's house? Grandma was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and said: Big ...... Auntie, my man has hit an evil spirit, I was introduced by Jitai Zhenren, let me buy something from you. Immediately, he handed the list of Jitai real people to the old lady. ”

The old lady took the list tremblingly, sighed, and said, "Girl, come in with me." Grandma followed the old lady into the house, only to see that the room was full of incense, candles, yellow paper, and some Taoist ritual utensils that grandma had never seen. The old lady sat down with her grandmother, and lit an oil lamp, and by the faint light she sighed: What a ridiculous dream. As he spoke, two cloudy tears flowed from his dim eyes. As if she remembered something sad, grandma saw it in her eyes and sighed in her heart, I really don't know what else is going on, and I can make an old man cry like this. ”

I was stunned, this sudden appearance seemed to add another drama to the story, "What is such a ridiculous dream?" What exactly is this old lady referring to? "Originally, I thought it was just a meaningless cameo, but how is it that now, this grandmother is the key to the story's reversal?

A series of questions lingered in my mind, and I didn't know how to resolve them.

"Chuxin girl, who is this grandmother, what do you mean by this dream? I never mentioned dreams in this matter, why did I hear a little blindfolded? ”
