Chapter 286: Xiao Lu's hand
When Lin Bufan woke up, the people from the decoration team also came, Lin Bufan opened the door of Maoshan Hall and let them in, Engineer Wang just led the group of people upstairs, and a black Toyota SUV came outside, and then a man in his thirties came down from the car, this man is nearly 1.8 meters tall, burly and strong, he has the same temperament as Zhao Ming, the unique temperament of a soldier.
"I'm here to pick up a man named Lin Daochang. The man walked in and said politely to Lin Bufan.
"I'm the one you're going to pick up. Lin Bufan said to the man with a smile.
"Are you Dao Chang Lin?" the man asked, with some doubts in his tone.
"That's right, I'm Lin Daochang, what's wrong?" Lin Bufan said with a smile.
"There's nothing wrong with seeing you, after seeing you, it completely subverted the image of the Taoist priest in my heart. The man said embarrassedly.
"Then what should a Taoist priest look like in your mind?"
"The image of a Taoist priest in my mind should be about forty or fifty years old, with long hair and beard, and he can speak as well. The man laughed.
"Actually, you're right, my uncle and uncle are indeed like that. ”
"Okay, Lin Dao is long, the time is not early, the place we are going to is far away, let's talk on the way. ”
"Okay, please also ask this brother to carry the things I have prepared to the car. Lin Bufan instructed the man.
"No problem. The man replied cheerfully.
So Lin Bufan, Erzhuzi and the man moved all the things used for moving the grave to his car, and then Lin Bufan went up to the second floor and handed over the key to Maoshan Hall to Engineer Wang, and told him to lock the door if he came back late at night.
"What is this chicken for?" the man asked, frowning, looking at the big rooster lying at the bottom of the second pillar.
"It was for a living sacrifice. Lin Bufan said to the man, and the man didn't say anything again when he heard Lin Bufan say this.
Wang Hetong told Lin Bufan the day before yesterday that he wanted to go to see the excitement with Lin Bufan, Lin Bufan estimated that she didn't expect that she would leave so early, Lin Bufan sat in the car and wondered if to call her and Bai Haoteng, but after thinking about it, Lin Bufan still felt that it was okay, after all, moving the grave was not a good thing.
Lin Bufan's co-pilot in the car chatted with the man who was driving without saying a word, Erzhuzi fell asleep as soon as he got in the car, seeing that Erzhuzi slept so soundly, Lin Bufan was also a little sleepy, and Lin Bufan also fell asleep after a while. The car drove for about an hour and a half, the road began to become rugged and bumpy, and the car shook more and more, at this moment Lin Bufan was not sleepy at all, Lin Bufan looked back, the second pillar was snoring and sleeping with saliva in his mouth, Lin Bufan also admired this stupid boy, he could fall asleep if the car shook so hard.
"Can you tell me where we're going, and how long will it take to get there?" Lin Bufan asked the man who was driving.
"The place we went to this time was Guanshui Town, KD County, where my eldest brother's grandfather was buried. The man said to Lin Bufan.
"Oh. Lin Bufan listened to the man's words and nodded, Lin Bufan of KD County knew that as for the irrigation town he said, Lin Bufan had heard it for the first time.
KD is a county-level city, and this county is also particularly poor, because this county is surrounded by lofty mountains and mountains, which is much worse than DG City, because DG City is a coastal city, and the transportation is also relatively developed, most people rely on the sea to eat, and the per capita income is relatively high.
About an hour later, I came to a small town, this town is the driving man said that the water town, now the time is half past seven in the morning, the car just stopped, Lin Bufan saw Zhao Ming get off a black Toyota off-road vehicle and go straight to Lin Bufan's car and walked over, Zhao Ming wore a pair of black sunglasses today, wearing a black suit, the whole person looked particularly handsome.
"Chief Lin, you're here. Zhao Ming walked to Lin Bufan's car window and greeted Lin Bufan politely.
"Yes. Lin Bufan smiled and nodded.
"I don't know if Lin Daochang's things are ready, if there is anything missing, you tell me, I will arrange someone to buy it now, once I pass this town, I can't find a place to buy it in front of me." ”
"Everything that should be prepared is ready, and there is one less table for opening the altar, preferably a square table. Lin Bufan said to Zhao Ming.
"I have a table at my uncle's house, this is not needed, since you have prepared everything, then I will arrange for someone to prepare for departure. After Zhao Ming finished speaking, he walked over to the other cars.
After about ten minutes, the car began to start, Zhao Ming's car was in the front, Lin Bufan's car was in second place, there were more than 20 off-road vehicles behind Lin Bufan, and behind him was a flat-headed honest liberation truck.
The car drove forward slowly, except for Lin Bufan, who did not throw paper money out of the window, there were people in the rest of the cars who threw paper money out of the window.
This is also particular about throwing paper money outside the car, which is considered to be road money, especially when encountering intersections and crossing bridges, because there are more wild ghosts in such places. In fact, ghosts are not only found in the dark, but they can also be encountered during the day, but only rarely. There is a saying called the anode must decline, which means that the morning and the child are both the time when yin and yang alternate, so it is the most evil, the most weird, and the most prone to chaos in the day, and it is also the so-called anode must decline, and the cathode must win, and those dirty things will naturally appear.
The road ahead after this irrigation town is all rugged mountain roads, the roads are potholes, and they are all driving off-road vehicles today, which if they are replaced by ordinary cars, they will not be able to move forward at all. The car shook more and more, and Erzhuzi came out of Maoshan Hall and began to sleep until now, Lin Bufan envied him from the heart.
After another hour or so, the convoy reached the foot of a hill. At the foot of this mountain, Lin Bufan saw a three-story villa, looking at this villa, Lin Bufan was a little puzzled, who would come to build a villa in this place where birds don't, and there is not a single family within a radius of more than ten miles, just such a family, what Lin Bufan didn't expect was that this convoy drove directly into the courtyard of this villa.
"Erzhuzi, wake up, it's here. Lin Bufan pushed the second pillar sitting in the back.
"Ah, it's here so soon. Erzhuzi wiped the corner of his mouth and said to Lin Bufan.
"You've been asleep for more than three hours. Lin Bufan said angrily.
"I don't think I've only slept for a while. Erzhuzi rubbed his eyes and said.
"Get out of the car and get something. Lin Bufan said to Erzhuzi angrily.
"Oh. Erzhuzi answered and then pushed the car door and moved the things on the car down, at this time Zhao Ming was also ordering the people who came with him to come and help Erzhuzi move things.
"It's really interesting, it's the first time I've seen someone raise pigs in the yard of a villa. Erzhuzi pointed to the pigsty in the yard and smiled, looking at the three-story luxury villa in front of him and then looking at the pigsty in the yard is indeed awkward.
"Shut up!" Lin Bufan glared at Erzhuzi and said.
At this time, an old man in his sixties walked out of the room, and he walked towards Zhao Ming with a smile.
"Uncle. Zhao Ming bowed deeply to the old man and shouted.
"I haven't seen you for more than half a year, this kid is strong again. Zhao Ming's uncle patted Zhao Ming's shoulder and said.
"Uncle, this is the practice of Lin Daochang, who I invited to open the altar for my grandfather according to your request. Zhao Ming pointed at Lin Bufan and said to his uncle.
"Hello. Lin Bufan stepped forward and greeted Zhao Ming's uncle.
"Zhao Ming, do you think your uncle is old, so foolish, don't you?" Uncle Zhao Ming looked at Lin Bufan and then said to Zhao Ming.
"Uncle, what did you say, how dare I fool you?" Zhao Ming didn't understand what his uncle meant.
"Your grandfather's relocation of the grave is not a trivial matter, I have repeatedly told you to find a powerful Taoist to come over, you will find such a stinky child to come and fool me, your uncle is old, but not old and confused. Zhao Ming's uncle blushed and said to Zhao Ming with a thick neck.
"Ambition is not old, those who are older may not be better than my Taoism. Lin Bufan stood aside and interjected, Lin Bufan really couldn't stand what Uncle Zhao Ming said.
"Young man, I don't know how much my nephew spent to invite you here, that money is just the hard work of your visit this time, you better go, we won't move this grave today. Zhao Ming's uncle said to Lin Bufan, he still didn't believe Lin Bufan in his heart.
"Master, since people don't believe us, let's go. The second pillar dragged Lin Bufan's arm and said to Lin Bufan, in fact, Lin Bufan also wanted to go, but Lin Bufan couldn't go, if Lin Bufan left, it would be tantamount to acquiescing that he was the same as those charlatans and fake Taoists.
"Chief Lin, I'll have someone send you back. Zhao Ming sighed and said.
"I can't go, and if I leave today, I'll admit that I'm a charlatan. Lin Bufan shook his head and said.
"Erzhuzi, bring my wolf pen, cinnabar, and yellow rune paper. Lin Bufan said to the two pillars next to him, because Lin Bufan wanted to prove it to them.
"Yes, master. Erzhuzi opened the backpack behind him, and then handed Lin Bufan what he needed.
"Erzhuzi, you bend down. Lin Bufan instructed the two pillars, and the two pillars didn't ask Lin Bufan what to do, he bent down happily, Lin Bufan put the yellow rune paper on the back of the two pillars, and then dipped the wolf pen in his hand to draw a talisman on the yellow rune paper, Lin Bufan's name this time is the sleeping charm, the role of this charm is for those who have insomnia, as long as this charm is pasted on the chest of the insomniac, the person will be drowsy in less than three seconds.
"Okay, this talisman of mine is called the Sleeping Talisman, as long as you stick this talisman on your body, this person will fall asleep in less than three seconds, who will try this talisman?" Lin Bufan said to the people around him with the talisman in his hand.
"I'll try. Zhao Ming's uncle rolled up his sleeves, stood in front of Lin Bufan and said, Lin Bufan also knew why he wanted to try it himself, because he couldn't trust these people brought by Zhao Ming, and he was afraid that those people would be with Lin Bufan.
"Yes. Lin Bufan walked to Uncle Zhao Ming's side, Lin Bufan first put a trace of Dao power into the spell in his hand, and then pasted it on Uncle Zhao Ming's chest.
"I'm going to prove by myself today that you're a liar" Before the "son" could say it, Zhao Ming's uncle fell asleep standing up.
"It's amazing, it's incredible. The people around looked at Zhao Ming's uncle and said, Zhao Ming looked at his uncle dumbfounded, first of all, Zhao Ming is a soldier, he has never believed in ghosts and gods, let alone Lin Bufan, these so-called Taoist priests, he invited Lin Bufan to come in the hope that Lin Bufan can play a perfunctory role for his uncle.
"Huhuhuhu" At this time, Uncle Zhao Ming snored.
"Uncle, uncle, wake up. Zhao Ming stepped forward and shook his uncle.
"If this talisman on his body is not removed, he will not wake up even if the sky falls. Lin Bufan said to Zhao Ming.
"This ......" Zhao Ming was a little speechless at this time.
"Now you can. Lin Bufan took off the spell on Uncle Zhao Ming and said.
"Uncle, uncle, are you waking up?" Zhao Ming continued to shout.
"Why did I fall asleep?" Uncle Zhao Ming said inexplicably.
"Just now after my master put the charm on you, you fell asleep, and everyone present saw it. Erzhuzi said to Zhao Ming's uncle unhappily, Zhao Ming's uncle glanced at Zhao Ming, which meant to ask Zhao Ming if what Zhao Ming Erzhuzi said was true, Zhao Ming nodded, which means that this is indeed the case.
"Are you really a Taoist priest?" Uncle Zhao Ming's attitude immediately changed a lot, he was no longer angry at Lin Bufan like just now, at this moment he became respectful of Lin Bufan's tone, but he was still a little skeptical, this can't be blamed on him, after all, there are too many liars in this world who spread rumors and pretend to be gods.
"Well, I am a disciple of the Xiamaoshan Sect. Lin Bufan said to Zhao Ming's uncle.
"The old man was a little rude just now, I hope the Taoist will forgive me. Uncle Zhao Ming said with a red face.
"Don't talk about that, let's go and see the cemetery now, the opening of the altar at eleven o'clock will be done in less than ten minutes, and when I finish the rituals, I can start the grave." Lin Bufan said to Zhao Ming's uncle.
"Okay, okay, okay, Taoist leader, please come with me. Zhao Ming's uncle took Lin Bufan and the others to the backyard of the villa.
"This is the grave of our ancestors. Zhao Ming's uncle pointed to a large grave bag in the backyard of the villa and said.
"What a big grave. Erzhuzi said in surprise, this tomb is indeed big, Lin Bufan has never seen such a big tomb, this big tomb is about three meters high, the diameter of the tomb bag has reached more than ten meters, and the surrounding of the tomb bag is full of pine trees.
"Why don't you erect a monument for such a big tomb?" Lin Bufan stood aside and asked curiously, Lin Bufan thought that their family was also a rich family, and a monument was nothing to them.
"When our ancestors died, they said that no monument was allowed to be erected in front of his grave. Uncle Zhao Ming explained to Lin Bufan.
"So that's the case, then you should know the name of your ancestor, because I need to use his name when I open the altar in a while. ”
"Of course I know, we have his name on our family tree. Uncle Zhao Ming replied.
"Alright, let's go back and get ready. Lin Bufan turned around and walked towards the front yard of the villa.
"Mr. Zhao, I have something to tell you. Lin Bufan turned around and said to Zhao Ming.
"Chief Lin, please speak. Zhao Ming trotted two steps to Lin Bufan's side and said.
"Remember, you must get the coffin out of the bag before thirteen o'clock, and I took a look at the grave in the backyard, and if it were to be dug by people alone, I guess I wouldn't have been able to dig it all this day. Lin Bufan said to Zhao Ming seriously.
"Chief Lin, don't worry, I have already arranged this matter, there is a sand quarry near my uncle's house, there is an excavator there, it will come over in a while, and we will use the excavator to dig when the time comes, soon." Zhao Ming explained.
"That's fine, I'll prepare. When Lin Bufan returned to the courtyard of Uncle Zhao Ming's house, Uncle Zhao Ming and his uncle politely invited Lin Bufan to his house, and instructed the men brought by Zhao Ming to go into the pigsty to catch a pig and come out, and prepare to entertain Lin Bufan and others at noon.
"Can you tell me the name of your ancestor?" Lin Bufan said to Zhao Ming's uncle.
"Okay, I'll write it to you on paper. Uncle Zhao Ming first went into the house and looked through the family tree, and then wrote the name of his ancestor to Lin Bufan.
"Zhao Tiangang, a very domineering name. Lin Bufan looked at the name on the paper and said.
"Little brother, you are indeed powerful, my ancestor is indeed not a mortal. Uncle Zhao Ming said proudly.
"I deliberately don't understand, I just took a look at the mountain behind the tomb of your family, which means that the descendants of your family have a backer, there is a stream in front of this tomb, the water in this stream represents wealth, the stream is alive, so your family's wealth is also alive, although the feng shui occupied by this tomb is not the best, but it is definitely rare, why do you want to move?" Lin Bufan asked incomprehensibly.
"The Taoist must have heard such a sentence: "The poor change the door, and the rich move to the grave." Zhao Ming's uncle said to Lin Bufan, Lin Bufan didn't speak, just nodded his head to indicate that he knew.
"In the past, our Zhao family Ding was prosperous, and the descendants of the Zhao family were getting bigger and bigger, whether they were doing business or trading, but in the past ten years, our Zhao family has declined a little, my eldest nephew has been married for three years, and the two of them have no children until now, and the two of them went to the hospital for a check-up, and there is nothing wrong with them. In addition, my eldest son's business is getting worse and worse, and the money he earned from selling and selling in the past few years has lost almost the same in recent years, so I suspect that it is the matter of this ancestral tomb. Zhao Ming's uncle said with a sigh.
"I heard that your Zhao family has two ancestral tombs, so how can you be sure that this ancestral tomb is in charge of your family's descendants?" Lin Bufan asked again.
"Our family has looked for many people in the ancestral tomb in DG City, and they all said that there is nothing wrong with the geographical feng shui of that tomb, although the tomb cannot be used for future generations, but it will never harm future generations. One day the year before last, when a thinner Taoist priest passed by my house, he told me that there was something wrong with my tomb, and I asked him what was wrong with this tomb, and he shook his head and left without saying anything. Zhao Ming's uncle continued.
Lin Bufan thought to himself that the Taoist priest that Uncle Zhao Ming said was very likely to be a fake Taoist, but Lin Bufan couldn't say anything, after all, if he said too much, he would lose.
"It stands to reason that it is best to move the grave around the Qingming Festival, why do you want to move the grave now?" Lin Bufan asked Zhao Ming's uncle.
Many people don't know why Qingming is the best? Because Qingming is the period when the yang energy rises and the yin energy falls, the time when the leyline is in a state of flow, if the soil is broken and the grave is repaired within this time, then the wound caused by the leyline will heal quickly, and because the leyline is in an active state, if it is the fastest time for the vein, the bones will soon be joined by the leyline, and at the same time, feng shui will soon play a role, so our ancestors set this festival as the time to break the ground and repair the tomb, and over time it has formed a specific public festival, that is, in this time period, the tomb does not need to choose the date, any time can be, so a traditional custom has been formed throughout the ages, and Qingming has become the grave and groundbreaking in most parts of our country, the best time to remove bones for burial.
"The eldest of my family is over forty years old this year, although his career is quite successful, but he still does not have a daughter-in-law, and my nephew, I have always treated him as my own child, he is more than Chinese New Year's Eve years old and does not even have a child, so I am a little anxious, I want to quickly move the tomb of this ancestor to our Zhao family ancestral grave, so that I can rest assured, otherwise I am always worried about it. Zhao Ming's uncle said, hearing him say this, Lin Bufan didn't speak again, but just nodded clearly.
In fact, the grave is generally moved at seven or eight o'clock in the morning, and few people will choose it at noon, because the yang energy at noon is strong and easy to burn the bones, why Lin Bufan chose to move the grave at noon, it is because Zhao Ming's grandfather's grave is more than a hundred years old, and the longer the time, the heavier the yin in the coffin, Lin Bufan also wants to use the yang energy to flush the yin in the coffin.
When everything was ready, it was already half past ten at noon, and there was less than half an hour left to leave the altar, at this time, Lin Bufan was wearing the yellow Taoist robe left by his master, and he was wearing a mixed yuan hat on his head.
"Master, you really look like you. Erzhuzi looked at Lin Bufan and said.
"Like what?" Lin Bufan asked in confusion.
"Like a Taoist priest. Erzhuzi said seriously.
"Fart, am I a fake Taoist!" Lin Bufan said angrily.
"Master, you misunderstood what I meant, I mean that you only look like a Taoist priest when you wear this Taoist robe, why do I think I said the wrong thing again?"
"From now on you, you'd better talk less. Lin Bufan glanced at the two pillars and said.
