Xu Yuan looked like you were an idiot and said, "Do you think metaphysics is feudal superstition? Have you ever heard of a saying that the end of science is metaphysics? In ancient times, there were Zhuge Liang, Liu Bowen, Yuan Tiangang, etc., the achievements they made, can you say that they are feudal superstition? True masters of metaphysics, the state will use them as treasures......"

Xu Yuanzhi's words made me understand some things again.

But I still don't understand why someone would have to put a needle in my fontanelle if they wanted to get rid of me and strangle me to death. Isn't that redundant?

Since I couldn't figure it out, I simply didn't want to, so I asked Sun Guanghe: "Daochang Sun, it's been ten years since I left here, and the village has changed a lot, I don't know if the old house where my family used to live is still there?" ”

Sun Guanghe nodded: "It's still there, that house is very evil, since I came to this Yitang Village, I think it's very evil, but over the years, nothing has happened." After a pause, he continued, "Now that it's getting late, you can stay with me for the night, eat something, and it's not too late to go tomorrow." ”

I listened to him and looked out, and it was dark at some point.

I didn't have the slightest appetite, I just wanted to go to the old house.

I glanced at Xu Yuanzhi.

He knew my mood at this time, so he said goodbye to Sun Guanghe.

This Sun Guanghe was extremely enthusiastic, seeing that we insisted on leaving, he packed a few steamed buns for us, loaded a few pieces of jerky, and gave us a bundle of candles, saying that they could be used.

After that, Xu Yuanzhi and I came out of the Taoist temple and walked in the direction of my house with the memory in our minds.

The old house is not far from Yitang Village, but it is seven or eight miles away from Sun Guanghe's Taoist temple, Xu Yuanzhi and I have been walking for more than half an hour, until the moon climbs the treetops, and then we see the old house surrounded by a few big trees.

Closer, closer, I finally stood in front of the door of the old house.

A simple vicissitudes of life, with an old house with eaves, the house area is not small, but there is no window, only a closed wooden door in the middle, from a distance, more like an old temple.

This is where I was born, where my mother was killed!

At this moment, I was really standing in front of this door, but I didn't have the courage to push it in.

My heart was beating suddenly, my palms were full of sweat, and my mind was full of the state of my mother's death, and I felt in a trance that behind this door, there was blood all over the ground and I was crying weakly......

Xu Yuanzhi has been quietly following me, without saying a word, which is not at all the image of chatter on weekdays.

It had been saving up for a long time before I stiffened my neck and reached for the wooden door.

With a "squeak", the door opened, as if opening a world that had been sealed for a long time.

I held my breath and looked inside, and the room was so dark that I couldn't see anything clearly.

I don't grow up in this room until I was seven years old, I remember.

This is just where I was born, and where my mother suffered!

I lit a candle and walked into the house.

The candle flame is like a bean, and it is even fainter in this room, looking at the situation in the house, I am a little relieved, but my heart is full of infinite sadness.

There was only a pile of ashes in the corner, and nothing else.

"Huh?"

At this moment, Xu Yuanzhi, who had been following me, suddenly made a strange sound, as if he had discovered something incredible, and I turned around and found that he was still standing outside the house.

I walked out of the house and happened to hear Xu Yuanzhi gasp at this time.

"Master, what's wrong with you?" I asked him.

Xu Yuanzhi looked around and said, "This house and the surroundings are very strange!" Cow maniacs shouldn't be unaware! Is it only in the last few years? ”

"Eccentric? What's weird? I blurted out.

He didn't answer me, but what happened next made me wonder.

I saw him light a candle and circle around the old house.

I didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, so I followed him around.

After a circle, I also felt that there was indeed something wrong with this ancestor.

"Changsheng, you also found out, right?" He asked.

I nodded and replied, "The four trees around this house are the four ghost trees!" ”

There is a folk saying that "mulberry is not planted in the front, willows are not planted in the back, and ghosts are not planted on the side of the house to clap their hands".

Not planting mulberry in front of the house means that mulberry trees cannot be planted in front of the house or on both sides of the gate, because "mulberry" and "mourning" have the same sound, and there is mourning in front of the house, and it is very unlucky to go out to see "mourning". And this mulberry tree is brittle and easy to break, not straight, no yield rate, planted in the house before the house, there is a saying that the younger generations of the family can not become talents.

The willow tree is mostly used as a cane, a spirit banner and other funeral things, and the yin qi is extremely heavy, so it is also called the "mound tree", this kind of tree is only suitable for planting in cemeteries and riverbanks, and is not suitable for planting in yang houses.

"Ghost clapping" refers to the big poplar, its leaves are wide and flat, the shape is similar to the palm of a person's hand, and the wind blows "whoosh" sound, just like the ghost is slapping, so it is also taboo among the people.

As for the last type of ghost tree, it is naturally the well-known locust tree. The locust tree is the ghost of the wood, and of course it is not just taken literally. It is one of the heaviest yin qi among all trees, and it can attract lonely ghosts and wild ghosts nearby, and the old locust tree can also make some moths by itself, so it is a taboo in front of and behind the house.

And around this old house, these four ghost trees are planted just like these four ghost trees, and the canopies of these four trees are intertwined, like a big open umbrella, which just covers the roof tightly.

Looking at the thickness of these four trees, it can be judged that these trees are at least a few hundred years old.

Xu Yuanzhi listened to what I said, and added: "This is just one of them, you come to see this house, the front is big and the back is small, there are doors and no windows, and the shape is like a coffin, which is called 'coffin house' and 'dead air room' in feng shui geography." ”

"Everything is people-oriented, the door of the house is like a person's mouth, the window is like a person's navel, the mouth is not only eating and talking, is to breathe, and the window can discharge exhaust gas and yin qi. If a house has only doors and no windows, then the exhaust gas will not be discharged, and over time even fresh air will not come in, and it will be lifeless. ”

This guy is really old-fashioned.

I looked at it for a long time, but I didn't see what he said was wide in front and narrow in the back, so I measured it with my foot, and sure enough, the front wall was more than half a foot away from the back wall.

I was amazed and asked, "It is definitely not a coincidence that there are four ghost trees planted next to a coffin house......

It is also true that if the master offends the craftsmen when building the house, those craftsmen may do something. But this tree was definitely planted by the lord himself...... Could it be possible that the tree was not built at the same time as the house?

Xu Yuanzhi interrupted me: "Where are there so many coincidences, this house and these trees are clearly from the same period, this is someone who has arranged a yin trick here, to put it seriously, this is a yin gathering array." ”
