Nanyang head lowering technique, such a thing that Liu Ruxiang encountered was a little helpless, the old patriarch of the Liu family, the old lady, is more than a hundred years old this year, he didn't turn the book, he didn't even open his eyes, he could say that those materials were recorded in the classics just by thinking about it, it was just a god.

When many people get old, their brains are not very bright, Alzheimer's disease, or they are forgetful, and it is good to be able to take care of themselves, but the old patriarch is more than 100 years old this year, and his memory is so powerful, I can't believe it.

At this time, the sixth master hurriedly ran to the book on the side, opened a cabinet with a long string of keys, put on a woolen glove, and carefully found a book from it.

"Found it." The sixth master took out the book, and then checked it according to the bibliography on it, and soon found the information recorded in that year.

In the 14th year of the Kangxi reign of the Qing Dynasty, there were foreign merchants in the coastal zone who went all the way to the west and stopped in Mengshan County. However, in a few days, several families were wiped out, and the dead fell to the ground, as thin as a dried corpse, with a withered face, stiff body, dilated vision, and a pair of small blood gushing out of the back of the neck. An autopsy concluded that it was a beast that had broken into the house and killed people. There are Taoist priests passing by here, and they are terrified after seeing it, and they say that this is the Nanyang evil art to lower the head.

Leave the method of breaking the law and leave in a hurry, there are two days, someone goes out at night to see the fierce scene, a head flies into the sky and it, falls to kill, bites and dies, more than half of the sound to check, the blood is exhausted.

There is a rumor among the people that the blade of the sword refers to a foreign businessman. The government sent people to arrest, the consequences of the punishment saw the fierce appearance, the head flew into the sky, the face was hideous, the blood basin swallowed people's blood, and the fierce battle failed to take it for half a day

This is the end of the account.

That is to say, this evil method has appeared in the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, when many people died, and finally relied on the spell left by a Taoist priest and a master of the Chen family, and fought with difficulty.

The old patriarch who was leaning on the bamboo recliner rubbed his nose at this time and sighed: "Alas, the ancestors were not angry back then, otherwise it would be the turn of the Chen family in Shuanghu Town to snatch this credit." ”

The old patriarch's words were full of complaints, and then, he got up slightly, recalled for a while, and said: "This Shuanghu Town Chen family should still be there, but I don't know who the spells have passed after so many years?" Is there any break? If it is completely cut off, it will be a lot of wasted effort. ”

The old patriarch's voice fell, and the four masters on the side said: "That's not yet, I remember that the new generation of juniors of the Chen family have gone to school in the provincial capital, and they don't know what to study, they are a cultural person, and they don't want to come back to accept the inheritance of our master." ”

"The old guy is not dead yet, their family is far inferior to our Liu family in Shuanghu Town, but life is not easy."

The fourth master took off his reading glasses and sighed.

I was ignorant, and then I understood, our Liu family has been established since the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, not to mention that it has been in full swing, it can be regarded as a prosperous situation, and it is also a big household in this vicinity.

Listening to the description of the four masters, the Chen family in Shuanghu Town now seems to be a little decayed and small.

"Well, the ancestors blessed my Yumen Liu clan. Little four, you take Xiaoxiang girl over for a while, contact the people over there, remember to be polite, it is best to ask for the way to deal with the head lowering. The old lady thought about it for a while, and then gave the order.

The fourth master is called Xiao Si, and he nodded with a smile.

"I know, if I encounter this kind of flying head again in the future, if I don't have a good spell, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with. Sooner rather than later, let's go now. ”

The old patriarch suddenly thought of something at this time, stretched out his hand and said: "Don't worry, you can't be without courtesy, how to say that it is also a peer, the inheritance of our two families is different, so it is too reckless to come to the door." You go and take out a compass in my room, find a cardboard box to wrap it, and give it to the boss of the Chen family. ”

"Also, you put this little guy on again, and if something happens, let it go, and let them see what level the little fragrant girl's disciple is."

After the old patriarch finished speaking, he suddenly became quiet again, and fell asleep on the bamboo chaise longue, like a very quiet and long-lived turtle, even if his face was full of wrinkles, but he could feel a sense of stability and unquestionable from his words and deeds.

After the old patriarch fell asleep, there was no movement.

The voices of the others were also consciously reduced, and the four masters estimated and called us all out.

"Xiaoxiang, and this kid, you've been busy going out for the past two days, right? I guess I'm tired, so I'll go back to sleep and rest for a while, and when it's noon, I'll call you to come and I'll eat, and after eating, we will go directly to Chen's house in Shuanghu Town, but when I eat afterwards, I can tell you some stories about the origin of the past. ”

The four also said, and Uncle Liu's eyes lit up.

"Fourth, I remember that your daughter directly sent you two bottles of Zephyr wine, and it just so happened that I was free today, so I brought some braised pig ears to you."

The fourth master was furious: "You sixth, you want to open my bottle of good wine with that little broken pig's head, let me tell you, the door is not ......"

Liu Ruxiang was expressionless, and after saying goodbye to them, she led me home.

At this time, I was already sleepy, and I yawned when I walked.

Just now in the ancestral hall, I was really afraid of the majesty of several Liu family members, especially the old patriarch, looking at his wrinkled face, there was always a feeling of not being angry and arrogant. Moreover, his eyelids are slightly squinted when he sleeps, and it looks as if his eyes are not completely closed, and there is a slit, as if he is staring at you, and he feels nervous from the inside.

When I got home, I washed up a little and fell asleep, and when I woke up, it was already noon when the sun was high.

……

The fourth master came over and called us for dinner, and I quickly changed into a set of clean clothes and went out with him.

With a light in his eyes, he sat under the eaves of the courtyard and smoked a cigarette as he said, "I just called the old Chen family in Shuanghu Town, and they happen to be at home over there. We haven't told him exactly what we're looking for. However, there is something in their family, and their grandson, I heard that he is no longer in high school, and he is coming back to learn the public law at this time, and it is estimated that it will not be long before he will quit teaching. ”

The four masters looked at me twice at this time, smiled and asked me: "Ask Shan, let me ask you, in the past year, how have you learned to sing this spell or something?" ”

"Okay." I trembled in my heart, after all, I was an apprentice who had not been mastered, and I still had to go to school on weekdays, and this learning of the public law was a time-consuming job, and it was difficult to be proficient without hard work, but now I have dared to guarantee that those who have mastered it are very proficient, and it is definitely not worse than those who have already taken the precepts.

I heard that I only said two words, and the fourth master began to look me up and down: "Ask Shan, go to that Shuanghu Town immediately, it is very likely that you will have a discussion with the grandson of that family at that time, he is two years older than you, but the study time is not long, only two and a half years, this is no problem." ”

Two and a half years!

Ah, I only came to Liujia Village in July and August last year, and I have never been in contact with this teacher before.

My strongest point may be reciting Shigong's scriptures, but this is not enough to see. The opponent over there has two and a half years of skill, even if he fishes for three days and dries his nets for two days, he is stronger than me.

The fourth master looked at me a little weakly: "In this way, you sing a short entertainment drama first, and I'll listen to it." ”

Immediately, my mind began to recall.

Entertainment drama is a large category in the teacher's singing book, and the number of those who drive away evil spirits is almost the same, there are many characteristics, they are all sung to blind dates in some festivals, or in large-scale rituals, basically very long, and they are all about some ancestors, immortals, and the stories of the master, and the narrative style is obvious.

I immediately recalled a passage of singing Mo Yi, which was an opera reciting the ancestor of our Zhuang family, King Mo Yi, whose story Liu Ruxiang had told me before.

After recalling for a while, he immediately opened his mouth and began to sing: "The drum in front of the altar is loud and deep, sing me Mo Yi in front of the altar, don't sing about my ancestors and grandfathers, sing about my parents raising me." As soon as my mother gave birth to me, she washed me with water, washing my body in the morning as white as an egg, and washing my body in the evening as white as silver. Year to thirteen learn to ride a horse, year to fourteen strength, take a big bow and arrows, two or three arrows at a time, shoot the bird to the ground, shoot a hundred miles away to people, although the age is small and the strength is big, kung fu covers the river pool people. That year, the imperial court took the civil and military examinations, and I went to the capital to take the exam, and I was born as Hou Wangzai......"

Singing a long piece of Mo Yi is not difficult to memorize, just like memorizing classical Chinese when you go to school, if you don't understand the meaning, pure rote memorization of those awkward words, then it is easy to make mistakes. But when you understand it and understand the meaning, it's much easier, and maybe you can memorize it in half an hour while copying and reading silently.

A large number of Shigong scriptures were quickly memorized, and the four masters couldn't see any expression on their faces, but after listening to it, they did nod silently.

"You dance again."

The dance steps are a little difficult, this I recalled the beat in my heart, and sang it again, and the eyes of the four masters finally had a little more satisfaction.

"Yes, yes, you study and learn at the same time, it's good to get to this point. People probably don't believe it when they say it. ”

After the four masters commented here, Liu Ruxiang changed his clothes and walked out of the house.

Today I was going to someone else's house, and Master was dressed up beautifully.

She wore a pair of silver flower studs on her ears, a light blue dress, and a pair of white leather shoes on her feet.
