Chapter 2: The Eye-Opening-Eyed Mother-in-law

Seeing that everyone was very interested, Director Dou felt more and more that he had a good topic, and said casually: "This old lady is actually not from our place, ** I didn't know where to come here, and was taken in by a couple surnamed Li.

Li Dameng was not actually her biological son, the old lady was almost sixty when she came to us, and Li Dameng was an orphan she later adopted. After the death of the couple surnamed Li, they had no heirs, and the old lady was grateful for the benefits of the family, so she named her adopted son Li Dameng, which was regarded as inheriting the incense of the Li couple. ”

I see, Hu Yinfeng couldn't help but sigh secretly.

I heard Director Dou continue: "At first, we didn't know that the old lady knew the art of yin and yang, but then something happened, and everyone knew that the old lady was originally a witch.

It was more than 20 years ago, the old lady just came to us not long ago, we Douweizi Village had an old man died, but the old man did not die well, but hanged himself, it is said that because of the quarrel with her daughter-in-law before her death, the old woman couldn't think about it for a while, and hanged herself. The whole family regretted it, and after crying and burying the dead man, a strange thing happened immediately afterwards.

Since the burial of the dead, the daughter-in-law of this family has had nightmares every night, dreaming that her mother-in-law, who is wearing a cloaked hair and a red tongue, comes to her to reason, and she is so frightened that she can't sleep all night, and within a week, she almost becomes a nervous disorder. ”

Everyone was a little amused when they heard it, and they couldn't help but laugh out loud. Seeing that everyone was skeptical, Director Dou couldn't help but be a little anxious, and said with a red face: "Really, what I said is true, I was only a teenager at that time, and I hadn't joined the army yet." It just so happened that this daughter-in-law was the neighbor to us, and I saw it with my own eyes. Seeing that he was very serious, everyone was embarrassed to refute it to his face, so they had to listen to him continue to put on a show.

Director Dou continued his story, at first everyone thought that the daughter-in-law was evil, so they invited a lot of dancing gods to come over to exorcise ghosts, but it didn't get better, and the daughter-in-law still had nightmares every night, dreaming that her mother-in-law was looking for her own defense. I can't sleep at night, I can't eat during the day, I'm in a trance, my mouth is full of nonsense, and I see people who are so haggard that they lose their appearance, and they are about to die.

At this time, Li Dameng's mother took the initiative to come to the door, saying that this daughter-in-law was pitiful, and she was usually not bad, but because her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law quarreled a few words, she was tortured like this, and she couldn't stand it, so she wanted to come over and treat her.

This family is also really troublesome, anyway, almost all the methods that can be thought of have been thought of, and it is useless, since this old woman said that she can cure her daughter-in-law's strange disease, then the dead horse should be regarded as a live horse doctor, and the right to believe her once.

I saw Li Dameng's mother take out a small cloth man half a foot long from her waist, the body was made of red cloth, the face was covered with white cloth, the lips made of red beans, the black lines were connected into the nose and eyebrows, but there were no eyes, and the head was also bare, and the figure was dressed like the daughter-in-law who was strangely ill, she cut off a lock of hair from the patient's head, glued it to the cloth man's head with paste, and asked the patient's birth date, and wrote it on a white cloth strip together with the patient's name, and sewed it on the cloth man's waist with needles and threads.

Finally, he took a steel needle, took a drop of blood from each of the patient's ten fingers, put it in a porcelain bowl, mixed it with soju, and took out a delicate brush with a white tube and black head from his waist, dipped it in the blood wine in the bowl, and drew eyes on the face of the cloth man with words in his mouth.

After a spell, the little cloth man immediately became bright, and his eyes were shining, as if he had come to life, and everyone was shocked.

Li Dameng's mother told the patient's husband that at night, the couple must take this little cloth man and burn it on the grave of the deceased, and go home immediately after burning it, but no matter what sound they hear on the road, they must not turn back or answer, otherwise there will be life and death. Although the couple was scared in their hearts, they had no choice but to do what Li Dameng told them to do.

That night, the husband and wife came to their mother's grave tremblingly, took out the little cloth man, and lit the fire.

In an instant, only the fire rose, and the villain was instantly surrounded by fire, and at the same time let out a weird scream, and the couple were so frightened that they almost peed their pants on the spot. Hurriedly ran home hand in hand and turned his head, and heard the call of his mother behind him, the two listened to Li Dameng's words, no matter what kind of weirdness there was behind them, they didn't dare to look back, and they didn't dare to reply, so they ran from the cemetery to the house in one breath, almost collapsed.

When the daughter-in-law returned, she fell into bed and passed out. I slept for almost two days and two nights before I woke up, and I never dreamed of my mother-in-law coming to me again.

Everyone was thrilled to hear this, and they couldn't help but look at each other, and couldn't believe that this was all the real thing.

Dou Gaoshan sighed and said, "If you don't see this kind of thing with your own eyes, no one will believe it." I can't tell what's going on. But it was from that time that this Li Dameng's mother became famous, and she knew that she knew the art of yin and yang, and was especially good at opening the eyes of the paper sacrifices, and it was said that all the paper cows and paper horses that she opened her eyes would call when they were burned, and some people saw these cows and horses jumping around in the fire, as if they were burning live animals.

However, this old lady has a very strange temper, usually stays at home, and does not socialize much with the neighbors. It's not responsive, either. Someone went to ask her to open her eyes, and there was a good chance that she would touch the nail, and few people could invite her out happily.

Ten years ago, there was a director in the county whose father died, and he sent someone to ask the old lady to open her eyes to the sacrificial paper man and paper horse, and the old lady couldn't live or die. The chief knew that the old lady was a high-ranking person, so he sent someone to send a thousand yuan to Li Dameng, planning to use the old man's son to move the old lady.

That's a thousand yuan, the croppers can't earn this for a year, Li Dameng saw so much money, his eyes straightened, patted his chest and agreed, saying that it was wrapped up in himself, no problem, he could definitely invite the old lady out of the mountain. Unexpectedly, the old lady was lukewarm, and she still refused, saying no.

Li Dameng didn't expect that his mother would not even give his own face, no matter what method he tried, crying and splashing, the old lady just ignored it, there was no way, and finally had to grit his teeth and obediently return the pile of banknotes that had not been covered to others, it was a thousand yuan ten years ago, Li Dameng hated the old lady to death for this matter, and he had not interacted with his mother for several years, and the two of them did not live together. But the old lady still went her own way and didn't care.

Everyone listened with great interest, Dou Gaoshan saw that everyone was very interested, and said: "If you want to say that this old lady is really, don't you just take a pen and open your eyes, why bother to pick fat and thin so really?

However, this Li Dameng is not a good bird, he is more than thirty people, he doesn't do serious things, he eats enough every day, and he hasn't said anything about his daughter-in-law until now, and he wants to be a bachelor in this life. ”

Hu Yinfeng was secretly surprised in his heart when he heard this, and couldn't help but speed up his pace a little, wanting to meet this magical eye-opening mother-in-law earlier.

It took a lot of effort for everyone to turn around on the muddy paths in the fields. Director Dou, who was walking in the front, pointed with his hand: "Look, that's where Li Dameng's mother lives, it's almost there." ”

Hu Yinfeng looked up and saw that on a hill about 500 meters ahead, there were two houses built of stones, smoking was billowing, and it seemed that the owner was making breakfast.

Everyone wandered around for a while, and then came to the front of the small courtyard, Hu Yinfeng saw at a glance that there was an old woman in the house who was bending down to fill the stove with firewood, the old man had white hair, a black turban wrapped around his neck, a black dress and black pants, and his back was already bent very much, like a taut bow. I saw her standing up from time to time, holding the pot with one hand, and stirring in the pot with a spoon in one arm.

On the surface, this is an ordinary rural old woman, staggering and dying. If it weren't for the anecdotes that Gangdou Gaoshan talked about on the road, everyone would never have thought that there were so many stories about the old woman. Everyone walked into the courtyard made of wooden sticks, and Dou Gaoshan shouted: "Auntie, haven't you eaten yet?"

When the old lady heard someone enter the courtyard, she turned her head and looked out, and the tiger led the wind to see the face of the open-eyed mother-in-law, which was the face of a weathered old woman, with furrows on the dark skin, showing the marks left by the carving knives of the years. The old man was expressionless, looking at the few people who came in from the outside without saying a word, a little nervous.

Hu Yinfeng could see that this was an ordinary old lady in the countryside, and it was difficult to connect with the protagonist of the mysterious story along the way anyway, so he couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

The two stone houses are not large in size, and in total they do not exceed twenty square meters. There is a bed against the north wall in the inner room, an old-fashioned wooden cabinet against the wall at the head of the bed on the west side, a pot stove in the outer room, a small table made of wooden planks against the east wall, and a small wooden bench on the ground, one leg is broken, and a wooden stick is tied with hemp rope. Except for a few daily necessities, it can almost be described as a house with four walls.

The old lady looked lonely, said little, and did not have the sad expression of having just lost her property. The two goats are almost all the old man's belongings, and the ruthless thief does not even let go of such a miserable old woman, which is really immoral, and the conscience tells the dog to eat it.

Hu Yinfeng remembered the business of this line, and couldn't help but curse the thief in his heart, and vowed to seek justice for the old lady.

Director Dou first introduced Hu Yinfeng and others to the old man: "Auntie, this is Comrade Tiger from our police station, I heard that your son Dameng called the police in the morning and said that the two goats you raised were stolen last night, I don't know what happened, and the police comrades came to take a look." ”

As she spoke, the old lady silently scooped out a spoonful of yellow porridge from the pot, put it in a coarse porcelain bowl, filled a small half bowl, and held it in her hand.

Hu Yinfeng could see that it was porridge made of cornmeal, and thought that this was probably the old man's breakfast.
