Chapter 201: Moonlight, Panic
The moonlight was bright, the night was quiet, and only the sound of the twisting of the wheel kept coming to my ears. I don't know where the broom bay and the village of Xiadong are, but if you follow the father and son to deliver them, you will naturally be able to find them. It's just that the father and son still don't understand the scourge of the paper people, and if they tell them, they may not believe it, and they can only take one step at a time. All the way to the southwest, the road was quite flat at the beginning, but gradually, it was a country road, the road was very difficult, especially the paper handicraft of pulling this car, although it was all paper paste empty shelves, but it was easy to break, the speed of the father and son, also really made me anxious.
I thought about it for a while, and couldn't help asking, "Uncle, how long will it take for us to get to Xiadong Village in Nabroom Bay when we are in such a hurry?" ”
The middle-aged uncle looked up at the sky, and couldn't help laughing: "Little brother, if you want to say that Xiadong Village is not far away, but it is not close to it, and it will take the second half of the night to arrive at the earliest, in fact, you really don't need to suffer this crime, follow us to Xiadong Village, what is the picture?" ”
"Alas, you are not willing to sell us these paper crafts, so I have to go with them, and maybe the buyer will be willing to sell them to us!" I grinned, and then said, "Speaking of which, how can you do this?" And it has been passed down from generation to generation for decades, I can't eat well, I can't sleep well, and I deliver goods to people in the middle of the night, how tired it is! ”
The old man, who hadn't spoken for a long time, finally couldn't help but open his mouth after hearing the words: "This is fate, all walks of life, all walks of life have rules, these paper crafts must be sent to people's homes before dawn, and they can't see the sun." Otherwise, we can't afford to go without sleeping in the middle of the night to deliver these things to people, it's not easy to live now, it's good to have something to eat, hehe! ”
I also deeply sympathize, even if the father and son don't do this business, there will always be someone who can do it, three hundred and sixty lines, there will never be a shortage of people. As he was talking, the old man suddenly made a silent gesture and warned in a low voice: "There is a small stone bridge in front, that place is haunting people, when we walk over, be careful, don't talk anymore!" ”
Pestering? Small stone bridges? I hurriedly glanced ahead, and couldn't help but ask, "Uncle, why is the stone bridge so haunting?" ”
"Shh The old man hurriedly interrupted my words, and signaled to the middle-aged uncle, and then took a bamboo basket from the car, I fixed my eyes and saw that the bamboo basket was actually some paper money, the old man reached out and grabbed a handful, and before he walked to the stone bridge, he raised his hand and threw it out, and read aloud: "Borrow a road to open a road, every household knows, more lines are convenient and more virtues, borrow the road and borrow the road do not disturb...... Borrow a road to open a road, every household knows that it is convenient to accumulate more virtues by doing more, and borrowing the road to borrow the road......"
I only heard the old man keep repeating those words, I did understand, it turns out that they still have such a rule in this industry, passing by some evil places, to do these to screen away lonely ghosts, now I understand, the so-called entanglement, originally refers to a place is not clean, easy to have ghosts and evil spirits, this paper money is scattered, it is a way to open a road, but it can pass unharmed.
I smiled, didn't say anything, and didn't bother them with the rules of their business. But right in front of the stone bridge in front of me, I couldn't help but get goosebumps all over my body, and I couldn't help but be shocked, this place is really wrong! It's a pity that I haven't opened my eyes to see anything evil in this place, but I'm sure there's something dirty in this place!
"Whew!"
Before I knew that my thoughts had not yet subsided, I suddenly saw the paper money falling around the stone bridge, and a black whirlwind swept against the ground, rushing straight up, blocking our board car at once. The mule pulling the cart was honest and diligent, but at this moment, it also became a little restless and manic, and its front hooves kept kicking the ground, and he refused to move forward. Seeing this scene, the old man panicked all of a sudden, and he hurriedly said to the middle-aged uncle: "Quick, hurry up and drive the mule over!" ”
The middle-aged uncle was also anxiously slapping the mule's buttocks, who knew that it was okay not to slap, the harder he patted, the more the mule retreated more urgently. The middle-aged uncle said to the old man with a trembling face: "Dad, what do you think of this?" We've never been in a situation like this! Isn't it that they don't collect these paper money? Do you have to block the way and not let you go?! ”
The old man hurriedly ran to him, his hands clasped together and his fists trembled, and his mouth kept chanting: "It's strange, you go to the underworld, we cross the bridge between the yang, none of us will do anything wrong, there is no blame, there is no blame, there is no blame......"
As soon as his words fell, I saw the whirlwind on the bridge rushing up, sweeping up the paper money scattered around, and constantly hovering on the stone bridge. I frowned, walked quickly to the old man, and said in a cold voice: "Old man, you go back to the back, these evil people toast and don't eat and drink, they have already given them face, and now they insist on pestering people, so they can't let them!" ”
"Young man, ...... you" The old man looked at me in astonishment, as if he saw something, and hurriedly turned around and ran to the middle-aged uncle.
At this moment, I reached out and took off the Demon Sword on my back, grabbed it horizontally in front of me, and thought that although the Demon Sword was not invited, it was just the Northern Emperor Demon Sutra wrapped outside, which was enough to ward off evil spirits and exorcise demons. Suddenly lifting my foot and stomping on the ground three times, I shouted, "Evil obstacle is presumptuous! I am the successor of the Maoshan faction, Li Ergou, the demon sword is here, you don't retreat quickly, if you dare not obey, you will be beaten to the soul! ”
After some reprimanding, I hurriedly turned my head and said to the stunned middle-aged uncle and the old man: "Uncle, hurry up and follow me!" ”
The middle-aged uncle nodded hurriedly, saying that it was strange, I was carrying the Demon Sword to open the road in front, and the mule pulling the cart actually began to walk forward with its hooves, and when I came to the bridge, I shouted again: "Don't retreat!" ”
"Buzz ......"
A dull trembling sound came, and I saw the whirlwind in front of me slowly scattering and drifting, and the paper money also fell to the ground one by one. Seeing this, I cautiously walked forward step by step, and the old man and the middle-aged uncle also drove the car and followed quickly, until the stone bridge was crossed, the middle-aged uncle hurriedly wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and before he could speak, I reached out to stop him from speaking, turned around and walked back, and motioned for them to drive away first. So, I stood in front of the stone bridge and thought to myself, this time I was fortunate enough to come here with the two of them to deliver goods, and I just encountered this incident, what if it was someone else? No, I've got to think of a way to make it happen once and for all, so that everyone who passes through this place won't be haunted by the evil here.
Looking around, I quickly ran to the stone bridge to find a piece of bluestone, and then dug a hole in front of the stone bridge, first buried the bluestone in it, and then reached out and bit my fingers, and wrote a few words on the bluestone "Taishan stone dare to be", after the painting, maybe it was really heard, or maybe it was an illusion, a subtle sobbing sound, suddenly scattered. I settled down and sighed lightly: "Taishan Stone dares to be a show, I'm afraid that the surrounding lonely souls and wild ghosts will have to move, this is a thing to drive away evil towns, but it is used to suppress road evil, although it is a little overkill, but now it can only be done." ”
In fact, in the Daomen, there is a special reference to the Taoist technique of suppressing the road evil, the town road uses a stone stele, and the stone tablet has a special suppression charm, and the town bridge uses a pipe, the town mountain uses a stone, and the town water uses a tower, each with its own use. It's just that I want to carve a rune on the bluestone, I don't have that time at the moment, so I can only ask Taishan Stone to dare to suppress the hundred evils, and the stone bridge and the road will be used together. After doing this, I turned around and put on my sword and quickly caught up with the father and son.
The middle-aged uncle and the old man were already waiting for me at the intersection, and when they saw me, the middle-aged uncle was stunned and said: "I really didn't see it, the little brother is young, and he is actually a descendant of the Maoshan faction. ”
"It's also a little old man's clumsiness, I didn't see that Mr. Xiao has such a ability, this time Mr. Xiao followed our father and son, and even inadvertently saved us once, it is really our ancestors who accumulate virtue, if there is a neglect just now, don't take Mr. Xiao to heart!" The old man also said to me with a grateful face.
I hurriedly waved my hand and smiled: "Uncle, uncle, you're welcome, it's a trivial matter, in fact, I don't have any skills, and I've just learned a little Taoism, and I happen to be able to use one or two." Those evil cults may have given me this face because they were afraid of the name of the Maoshan faction, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to do anything about them, hehe! ”
Straighten my chest, I still rarely be praised so much, I didn't expect it to be so useful, but I know that I rely on the power of the Demon Sword to force those evil people to be honest, if the Demon Sword is not on me, I have no way at all. It's just that I was complimented by this father and son, and I still couldn't help but have a good time, but I didn't dare to be too presumptuous, lest the master scold me again.
The old man turned to say: "The little old man's name is You Ji, my son's name is You Guoxin, this has not asked Mr. Xiao's name, it is really rude, just now I heard Mr. Xiao call himself Li Ergou, Mr. Ergou, do you know why there are so many people near the stone bridge?" How come those dirty things just refuse to leave day after day?! ”
Seeing that the old man was so polite, I hurriedly bowed my hand before I spoke: "Uncle You, I heard my master say that there is a kind of lonely soul and wild ghost who binds the soul of the earth, because of a murderous death or a horizontal death, is detained by the place of death, and suffers death over and over again, and the pain is indefinite, such as suffering in hell, unless the suffering period is over, or a substitute ghost is found, you can get out of the painful death cycle and be reincarnated. They wandered in that place, waiting for an opportunity to find a substitute for the dead ghosts, and wanted to reincarnate as soon as possible, but this way was especially evil, and now that I have used the Taishan Stone to suppress that place, those evil spirits will inevitably scatter and flee, or be suppressed under the bridge, and there will be no more haunting things in the future! ”
