The night left quietly without a trace, leaving only the pain all over my body. It seems that the sequelae of being possessed are still very serious. Fortunately, my arm has regained some strength now, so I raised my arm with difficulty.
While sucking on her little fingernail, she waited for Uncle Wen's answer.
After thinking for a while, Uncle Wen said to me: "We, Lao Yuan and his younger brother have actually known each other for a long time. They are also a genuine Bai family. To be specific, this matter happened quite a long time ago."
When we heard Uncle Wen say this, we were not too surprised. After all, we had known for a long time that since Yuan Mei was a Mr. Bai, then Uncle Yuan De and Yuan must not be able to escape, but I still can't figure it out.
Yes, from the conversation between Uncle Wen and Yuan Mei, judging from their tone, Yuan Mei seems to be interested in the Sanqing Shu in our possession, and the relationship between them is definitely not that simple. What happened to them in the past?
What about things?
So I mustered up the courage to say to Uncle Wen: "Uncle Wen, please stop hiding it from us. Can you tell us everything?"
After Uncle Wen heard what I said, he seemed hesitant to speak. He turned to look at Uncle Lin. It was strange that the two old guys, who were originally incompatible with each other, both showed melancholy expressions.
It seems like there is something involved in this matter.
In fact, Uncle Wen usually pays more attention to health. He can't smoke half a pack of cigarettes a day, but tonight he has almost smoked a pack. At this time, Uncle Wen took out another cigarette and put it in his mouth,
He lit the fire, lowered his head and took a big puff, puffs of green smoke rose up, surrounding half of Uncle Wen's gray hair, looking quite sad. After a while, he raised his head and looked at me, saying
I said: "We have a long story, do you really want to hear it?"
Shitou didn't speak. Obviously, this matter had nothing to do with him. Lao Yi and I nodded firmly, because there were too many doubts about these two old guys, including the last time we went to Qitai
The abnormal behavior of these two old guys He, and what Aunt Zhen said to Uncle Wen at that time, I still feel that something is wrong. Now that these truths are about to be made public, can Lao Yi and I not listen with open ears?
Uncle Wen saw that we wanted to listen, so he took another puff of cigarette and said to us: "This matter really has to start when the master died."
After Uncle Wen said this, he told us what happened between him and Uncle Lin in the past.
By the way, that happened thirty years ago. At that time, Uncle Wen and Uncle Lin were young men in their twenties. Uncle Lin entered the school a few years later than Uncle Wen, and he was even worse than Uncle Wen.
, is a little beggar who has been lonely since childhood and grew up eating food from hundreds of families. But as the saying goes, ghosts bully the poor, such a child was also entangled by an "old man".
Just when Uncle Lin was obsessed with the ghost and was about to put his neck into the hanging rope, Uncle Jiu's master and apprentice happened to pass by and rescued him. Uncle Jiu saw that he was helpless, just like when he was young, so he
Out of compassion, he accepted him as his second apprentice. From then on, the three masters and apprentices wandered around the world. Although their lives were difficult, the hearts of the three masters and apprentices were warm.
It is said that the fierce battle in Liaoning's Wulu Mountain in 1975 was the beginning of the end of the fate of the master and the apprentice. At that time, Uncle Wen and Uncle Lin were both twenty-four years old, just about the same age as Lao Yi and I.
, Uncle Wen remembered clearly what happened that night. It was a summer, and due to the troubles of the 'monster corpse', all the crops that year were harvested, and the whole mountain was almost deserted. The three masters and disciples chased the monster
The corpse chased him to the depths of the mountain. There was a cave, which was the place where the corpse practiced. Uncle Jiu and the two of them rushed in and fought a life-and-death battle with the corpse.
Uncle Wen told me that although our generation knew Sanqingshu, he was much better than us when he was young. This was caused by different experiences and training. At that time, Uncle Jiu was the most powerful.
In his peak state, he could be said to be the best gentleman in the whole of China. However, even so, he could not defeat the corpse who was no longer afraid of the sun, wind, thunder and lightning. After fighting hard for half a night, the three of them were all
After losing the lottery, Uncle Lin was seriously injured, and one of his arms was almost broken.
For the sake of the safety of the common people and the life of his apprentice, Uncle Jiu became determined and took out the 'Rain Master Hydrolysis Talisman' that he usually kept on his body. He said that he could not let his apprentice die with him, so he took out the
Empress Fu asked her two apprentices to get out quickly, otherwise they would be implicated. However, you must know that these two apprentices have received life-saving grace from Uncle Jiu. Uncle Jiu is undoubtedly like a reborn parent in their hearts. Now seeing Jiu
When Uncle Jiu said this, the two of them had already made a rough guess. They knew that Uncle Jiu was going to die as a martyr, so they were not willing to leave. So they made up their minds to die with their master.
But Uncle Jiu told them while pestering the corpse that fire cannot be extinguished. No matter what time, there will always be poor people in need of help, so they must live on and inherit their own mantles!
Seeing that Uncle Jiu had spoken cruel words, the two brothers had no choice but to obey their master's final arrangement and helped him towards the entrance of the cave with tears in his eyes. When Uncle Jiu saw that his apprentice had gone out, he threw his copper coin sword out as well, but...
There was no chance to throw away the "Book of Three Purities" that he carried with him. At that time, Uncle Jiu didn't care too much. He put the 'Rain Master Hydrolysis Talisman' on his forehead, then hugged the corpse and left.
triggered this symbol.
The Rain Master's Hydrolysis Talisman, as the name suggests, uses all of one's own Yangshou as a guide to invite the power of the Rain Master to change the movement of the underground water veins, in exchange for a naturally formed underground water array at the cost of its own waxing. However, one must know the underground water veins.
As time goes by, if there is a slight change, the land here will definitely experience an earthquake. The two people who just walked out of the cave only felt the earth shaking, and they knew that their master had died together with the drought demon. Due to the earthquake,
The rocks at the entrance of the cave fell and sealed the entrance. The two brothers cried and dug out the rocks and soil at the entrance of the cave with their hands, but in vain. Under the majesty of nature, human power is so weak.
After staying on the mountain for a week, they accepted their fate. Although their master was dead, they were still alive, so they had to inherit Uncle Jiu's legacy and continue to travel around the world to rescue those who were haunted by evil things.
A miserable person.
Although the two were said to have been at odds since they were young, they were only fighting verbally. Now that their master is dead, they have no relatives and can only depend on each other. They will have someone to look after them when they travel around the world in the future, so the two set out on the road together.
What was the state of the country thirty years ago? Maybe our generation can never imagine that at that time the Cultural Revolution had just ended, and the whole of China was in a state of laziness. Did Mao Zedong say that the countryside surrounded the city, or the city surrounded the countryside?
It seems like it doesn't matter anymore.
Uncle Wen told me that at that time, the whole society seemed to be stupid. No one knew how to make money. They would spend twenty yuan for two months and still have five yuan and thirty-two cents left on hand. It was so exaggerated, in broad daylight.
When you walk into the city and look around, you will see a vast expanse of blue, a smattering of Chinese tunic suits or overalls, either blue or grey. Bicycles are very popular, and a Phoenix is just like a BMW now.
All kinds of restrictions are unknown to us people today. Everything you buy must be purchased with a ticket, and even a hair perm requires approval from your work unit. It’s really scary to think about it now. Uncle Wen told us that the two of them came from Mt. After coming down, I took a train directly to Shenyang. Although everyone was in a state of confusion at that time, fortunately not long after the ten years of catastrophe, the monsters and ghosts in the city had long been driven away and they were scared. So compared to now, that Time is the most peaceful time.
Seeing that nothing happened in Shenyang City, the two brothers stayed in the city for a while and thought that there might be no monsters in big cities, but there must be monsters in small places, because after those dirty things were driven out of the city, they would definitely Going to the countryside, daily life is now divorced from *** quotations, so although those dirty people dare not come to the big cities, they will definitely cause trouble in the countryside.
So after the two of them agreed, they decided to go to Heilongjiang, because at that time they already knew that there was a Mr. Tian in Mudanjiang, and another point was that they wanted to start from the northernmost tip of the motherland, and then travel all over the country to do a carpet-like extermination of demons. Devil, speaking of it, the two of them were young and uneducated at that time, and their thoughts were all so simple.
Just do what they said. After the two decided to go to Heilongjiang, they first went to a non-staple food store in Shenyang City. If you want to know what job was the most popular and awesome at that time, the answer is undoubtedly the salesperson of the non-staple food store, that is, a salesperson. At that time, because everything you bought had to be rationed, and this rationing power was in the hands of these salesmen, the poverty of materials made people lose their dignity. Uncle Wen told us that in order to buy more things, even at that time All the grassroots leaders and bureau-level cadres would nod and bow to the salespersons at the non-staple food outlets, which shows how powerful this profession was at that time.
Coincidentally, at that time, a person whom Uncle Jiu had rescued happened to be working as a salesperson in a non-staple food store, so the two of them found him, used some connections to buy a lot of food, and then boarded the train to Mudanjiang, stopping in Mudanjiang City. After some time, they really embarked on their journey. The train was bound for Hulin City, Heilongjiang Province. Hulin is the border of China, with Russia on the opposite side. Young Uncle Wen and Uncle Lin embarked on their own journey with confidence. They thought it was a journey to subdue the demons that was of great merit, but what they didn't know was that this trip to Heilongjiang would keep them together for more than thirty years.
As soon as young Uncle Wen and Uncle Lin arrived in Hulin, they began to wander around the rural areas and counties. Not to mention, at that time, there were really many strange things in such a place where birds didn't shit. Only in Hulin City and Mi. The two of them stayed around the mountain city for more than a year, and actually helped some people, breaking evil spirits, exorcising ghosts, and choosing burial sites for them. At that time, they didn't know the importance of money, so they helped people after all. From then on, they were often satisfied with just a few steamed buns and the like as solid food, and at most they only collected travel expenses. Uncle Wen told us that although they were poor at that time, it was the happiest time in their lives.
As the saying goes, doing good is the happiest, this saying is not unreasonable.
The two brothers had already traveled through the two urban areas, so they did not make any more stops and took the train to the next place. This place happened to be Qitaihe City, which is connected to Hulin City and Mishan City. , the two brothers were sitting on the train, listening to "The East is Red" coming from the loudspeaker, looking out the window, but they did not know that Qitai River was actually the place where the two brothers turned against each other and went their separate ways.
When Uncle Wen said this, he glanced at Uncle Lin, and Uncle Lin also glanced at him. Neither of them said anything. Uncle Wen turned around and said to us: "This Qitai River is really the turning point of our destiny.
