The guests in the teahouse kept urging each other to tell them what was going on.
"this……"
It wasn't until a wealthy businessman threw a few coins into his hand that the passerby nodded and bowed his head and began to talk attentively.
"Not long ago in Chang County, a pregnant woman accidentally fell to death and was later buried in a grave on the north slope."
"The pregnant woman's husband's family can be regarded as kind-hearted people. The pregnant woman's husband's surname is Lin, and his name is Lin Lu. His wife was buried well."
"But recently at night, Lin Lu has been having trouble sleeping."
"As soon as I fall asleep, I always hear someone standing next to the bed crying."
"Whenever Lin Lu wanted to be frightened to see who was crying beside the bed, he found that his body could not move. His body seemed to be pressed down by a big stone. He felt that his hands, feet, and mouth were no longer his. He was so frightened that he felt like he was dying every time.
I could only keep my eyes open at night, listening to a woman crying beside the bed at night."
"After so many times, Lin Lu's face became worse and worse, and his energy deteriorated."
"But it's strange to say that the weaker the husband's body is, the clearer the crying voice of the woman beside his bed. Listening carefully, Lin Lu almost died of fright. It turned out that the voice of the woman crying beside his bed was his.
In a few days, my deceased wife came to my door!"
"The wife kept crying and said that an outsider had taken over her grave. She asked her husband to dig up her grave and take a look."
"Today, Lin Lu fell seriously ill immediately when he woke up, but when he thought about the scene where his deceased wife cried to him last night, he couldn't bear it, and quickly asked his family to ask someone to invite a Taoist priest to come to the house."
"Half a day later, my parents invited a wandering Taoist priest to visit me. When the wandering Taoist priest saw Lin Lu's appearance, he said that he had been sleeping under the same roof all day long with something heavy in yin energy, so the yin energy had entered the house.
The body has lost its yang energy. After listening to the Taoist priest's words, Lin Lu called for help from experts and hurriedly told the wandering Taoist priest all the strange things he had encountered in the past few days. "
"After listening to the whole story, the Taoist priest praised Lin Lu for loving his late wife and not losing his mind and dragging it on. The Taoist priest also said that the place where Lin Lu's late wife slept was occupied by outsiders, so she became a homeless orphan.
The wandering ghost wandered to the husband's house that he was most familiar with during his lifetime."
"As the saying goes, there is a separation between yin and yang. Yin souls have the strongest yin energy. They often live under the same roof with living people, and living people will inevitably be affected. The weak yang energy in living people will lead to a weak life aura, and then the person will be mentally exhausted all day long.
As soon as I was in a trance, all kinds of illnesses and disasters started to come to my door."
"If Lin Lu delays for a few more days, even if his deceased wife has no intention of harming anyone, people with two different genders living under the same roof will inevitably be implicated. Eventually, the three fires will be extinguished, and the body will die violently."
"The Taoist priest's words were extremely mysterious, but he was also right. Lin Lu and his family all believed the Taoist priest's words. They immediately followed the Taoist priest's words and dug up the grave to see if there was a dove occupying the magpie's nest of his late wife's grave."
"The Lin Lu family immediately called for relatives, as well as young and strong men who were born in the zodiac signs of dragon, tiger and dog. They brought hoes, hemp ropes, bamboo sticks, roosters, Sanyang wine, etc., and a large
The gang went out to dig the grave."
"..."
"..."
"Just now, someone came back to the county and said that the grave had been dug. The coffin in the graveyard had indeed been stolen. The coffin of Lin Lu's deceased wife had disappeared. What is now buried in the grave is a white coffin!"
After the passerby finished speaking, he broke free from the hand of the wealthy businessman and followed the flow of other people who were going out of the city to watch the excitement. In a blink of an eye, he ran away and disappeared into the crowd.
hiss--
When they heard that such a strange thing had happened in Chang County, everyone in the teahouse couldn't help but gasp. Even though it was clear and sunny, they still felt the hairs on their backs rising.
After the surprise passed, everyone began to whisper about it with great interest. For a moment, people were buzzing... buzzing, buzzing, buzzing, buzzing, buzzing...
Later.
One after another, people began to go out of the city to watch the excitement, either alone or with friends.
On the other hand, as for the storyteller, everyone no longer wanted to listen.
The storyteller saw that everyone had no interest in listening to stories today, so he simply packed up his stall early and followed the flow of people on the street, going out of the city to watch the excitement and collect new stories for the story to be told tomorrow.
In just a moment, one-third of the guests in the teahouse had left.
The teahouse business suddenly became deserted.
Jin An thought for a moment. He was also very curious about this matter. After leaving a dozen copper coins on the table, he got up and followed the people on the street out of the city.
When the waiter in the teahouse brought the steaming teapot to where Jin An was sitting, he had already left except for the dozen coins left on the table.
It’s my first time coming to Jin’an, but I don’t know where the northern slope of Chang County is.
But there is nothing wrong with following the flow of people.
…
…
North slope of Chang County.
It is two miles away from the county seat.
This graveyard, which is usually deserted, was extremely lively today. It was noon at this time, and two to three hundred people gathered around it.
There were over a hundred people, and the crowds were densely packed.
Lin Lu, who was pale and had not yet recovered from his illness, looked at the crowd of spectators not far away, and looked worriedly at a man next to him who was wearing an earth-colored Taoist robe and a Taoist crown, holding a Yin-Yang compass to locate the heavenly stems.
The old Taoist priest of Earthly Branches.
The old Taoist priest has black beard and hair, a strong body and does not look old at all. He is probably between fifty years old.
His sleeves are clean, he is a poor Taoist priest, his robe is very old, he is a wandering Taoist priest.
"Cough cough, cough cough cough... Mr. Chen, if there are so many irrelevant people gathered here, will it interfere with the coffin lifting? Should we drive all these people away... cough cough." Lin Lu has not recovered from his serious illness.
Just after saying these few words, everyone was already out of breath.
But his eyes looked at the Taoist priest in front of him with great respect.
Both inside and outside the words were spoken with great respect.
Lin Lu's parents, who were supporting their son, also looked at the Taoist priest standing in front of their son with respect.
The old Taoist priest, who was called Taoist Master Chen, raised his eyes slightly and casually glanced at the noisy and lively people in the distance.
"There is no need to drive those people away. The more people, the better. With more people, the yang energy is strong, which can just suppress the yin energy that has been burying the dead in this grave all year round, making it easier for us to lift the coffin."
"Yes, we will listen to Taoist Chen in everything." Lin Lu had a respectful expression on his face, not daring to have any objections.
The old Taoist priest held the yin and yang compass, and after locating the heavenly stems and earthly branches for a while, he said: "As the saying goes, a poisonous snake must take five steps to find an antidote. Of course, these five steps do not mean that it is really within five steps."
"Old Taoist, I just checked the Feng Shui around me. Facing the southwest corner of your deceased wife's graveyard, there is a Sleeping Hill. In Feng Shui, it is called the White Tiger's Head. It happens to be facing your dead wife's graveyard and bites it."
"In a place full of vitality, the terrain and fortune are more upright. But I noticed that the leaves of the trees on Guillotine Mountain are withered and yellow, and the crowns of the trees are slanted and uneven. You should immediately send someone to Guillotine Mountain to see if there are any trees in the forest there.
A lot of dead birds and insects fell on the ground."
"If there is one, search the mountain called Sleepy Hollow, and you will definitely find the bones of your missing wife."
Hearing what the old Taoist said, Lin Lu was overjoyed and hurriedly asked his parents to call his uncles to search for the body of his dead wife in Duolinge Mountain opposite.
"It's three quarters past noon. Now is the transition between Yang and Yin. It's the time of day when Yang Qi is the strongest and Yin Qi is weakest. Lift the coffin immediately!" The old Taoist priest suddenly looked solemn.
"Those who have great attributes and are born in the year of Dragon, Tiger and Dog, please stand up and get ready to go to the grave! Carry the coffin!"
