Ghost Blowing Lamp II

Chapter 80
The hands of the fat man and I holding the money trembled. At that time, we didn’t have a clear concept of money. We only knew that money was good, and we could buy sugar and cigarettes, but we couldn’t have too much money. Thoughts are rotten, life is rotten, and it is easy to embark on the road of bourgeois liberalization. But at that time, we had already had an inconspicuous idea in our hearts that we should make more money in the future. Money is evil, but money is useful.

Finally, we had the money to buy the ticket, and we got on the train bound for Beijing with mixed feelings, and went all the way to Nanjing. At this time, the money had already been spent, and the fat man borrowed it from his aunt He sent me to the train for 20 yuan, and he agreed with me on the platform that he would meet me at Ganggangyingzi when I go back next year, and that I would like to have more sets of foxes and yellow skins in the mountains next year, and then go to the grassland to visit Ding Si Sweet, let's discuss about participating in the world revolution.

The train was moving slowly, and I stuck out my hand from the window to shake hands with the fat man to say goodbye. Unexpectedly, this farewell lasted more than ten years, and many things happened in the past ten years. After I returned to Fujian, I joined the army by accident. , The army needs iron-like discipline, which is comparable to being an educated youth, and in the first few years, he was carrying out secret missions with the army in Kunlun Mountains, so he could not communicate with the outside world at all.

I didn't know that Ding Sitian was no longer alive until I was dispatched with the army to the Lanzhou Military Region. In the winter of the year when Fatty and I left the grassland, a cruel "white disaster" occurred centering on Baiyan Cave. Many people and animals died, and Ding Sitian also died in the natural disaster of the great winter famine, and the body has not been found so far.

In a blink of an eye, 15 years have passed. Fatty and I don't want to recall these tragic past events, and we dare not recall them until we packed up our belongings and opened our old photo albums before we left for the United States. Old photos, those old things that have been sealed, once wiped off the dust covering them, they still seem so real, and they are still vivid in my mind. Looking back at the past, it is inevitable to sigh. I looked at it, and suddenly found a blur in the distant view Looking at his hunched figure, he seemed to be old sheepskin. For some reason, when I saw his hazy figure in the photo, I immediately felt uneasy. Why hadn’t I noticed this detail before.

For so many years, I have always been worried about the strange things that happened after Lao Yangpi's death, and the bronze dragon amulet thrown by Ding Sitian on the grassland. These questions have always been entangled in my heart, but when I think of these past events , I will feel sad, and in addition to being exhausted all these years, it is difficult to have time to look back on the past. Today, seeing the figure of Lao Yangpi on this old photo, I can't help but think of the past events he told. Some of the details are very worthy of scrutiny .

When he was young, Lao Yangpi used to be a craftsman of inverted fighting. He was following a bandit chief surnamed Chen. Later, this person went south to Yunnan to do a big business. Unexpectedly, he encountered an accident in Yunnan and his whereabouts were unknown. Could this person be Is it Chen Xiazi I met in Shaanxi?That fortune teller Chen Blind who went to Yunnan to rob tombs?Now that I think about it carefully, many characteristics are all consistent, but although I know that Chen Xiazi followed the Xiling disciples to Yunnan Chonggu to find the "Tomb of the King Xian", but he never told me that he was the chief thief, but think about it. It is also understandable, after all, Blind Chen has broken a pair of tricks, and he will never want to fight again in this life. Now that he is cheating food and drink by fortune-telling and divination, he naturally wants to call himself the reincarnation of the ancestor Chen Tuan, how can he admit it? He used to be the leader of the tomb robbers.

Thinking of this, I immediately closed the photo album, got up and went out. Most of the old things that Lao Yangpi mentioned to me in the "Hundred Eyes Cave" were difficult to verify, but Blind Chen came from the old society, so he might know something. The most important thing is to ask him about the anecdote of Huang Pizi, Ghost Yamen, and Bronze Dragon Talisman. The most important thing is to ask him why the old sheep was struck by thunder and fire after his death, so as to solve the doubts that have plagued me for so many years.

As far as I know, Taoranting Park in Beijing is the place where Blind Chen goes about his daily activities, but he is erratic, and he dare not show up in the park recently. Opposite Taoranting is Beijing South Railway Station. There was a fortune-telling stall in a small alley, and I managed to find him.

It happened that Blind Chen was giving orders to a lesbian. The woman was in her thirties, she was fat and vain, and she was very rich. She squeezed her forehead, eyes and nose fiercely, and said something in her mouth: "There are so many appearances in the face, so why should you judge wealth by appearance? A blind person has the fingers of a fairy, and he can feel the five mountains in his bones." end."

The woman's face was pinched by the skinny old man, and she was very annoyed: "Can't you be gentle? Why are these hands like iron pincers?"

The blind man said: "This old man is an immortal's finger. It can pierce through flesh and bones. Even ordinary people don't feel any pain when pinched. Only those who descended from the gods and stars know how powerful it is. It seems that my wife must have a history. I don't know what this fairy wants to ask? If you want to talk about secrets, ten yuan a question, no credit."

That woman has a fat face and big ears, and she was often said to be wearing a three-pointed face since she was a child. At this time, hearing Blind Chen call her a fairy girl, she firmly believed that she was definitely not an ordinary housewife. In order to be impressed, although the old man was blind, he really knew things well, so he talked about the reason.

Although I was anxious to talk to Blind Chen, I didn't want to disturb his business, so I had to wait by the side. After listening for a long time, I realized that this woman's husband was a businessman who used his connections to buy approval documents. There was a cash cow at home. Naturally, she has no worries about food and clothing, but she and her husband often have strange dreams recently, dreaming of a black dog biting her toes, and often break out in a cold sweat from the dream, and the two of them have the same nightmare at the same time, not only can't sleep, eat, and be physically and mentally exhausted , and what's more terrible is that the foot bitten by a black dog in the dream gradually began to develop thick sores, fester and stink, and seek medical advice everywhere but no improvement. I heard that there is a blind man near Taoranting Patriarch Chen Tuan came here specially to ask the patriarch to give some advice, one is to ask why this strange dream happened, and the other is to ask whether the sores on the soles of the feet can be cured.

Blind Chen asked the woman's husband's figure again, and after listening, his expression was composed, as if he had a plan in mind, he shook his head and counted: "As expected by the old man, the fairy girl is a golden-winged carp from the Tianchi Yaotai. Reincarnated, your husband is thin and bony, short and thin. He was originally a canary in front of the Jade Emperor. They are both spiritual officials who are ranked in the fairy class. You two came to this world to be a husband and wife. You originally wanted to end a relationship , but you and your husband have offended Zhenjun Erlang's howling dog in the previous life. That vicious dog refused to let it go, that's why you dreamed of a black dog gnawing your feet. Fortunately, I let the old man know, otherwise the catastrophe will not be far away. "

When the fat woman heard that she and her husband were two animals in the previous life?These words were too offensive, and not only did they suspect that the blind man was making up nonsense.

Blind Chen quickly explained, the old man speaks well and speaks well, so there is no reason for him to talk nonsense?Blind eyes clear their minds by themselves, see forms that the world does not see, understand the way that the world does not understand, what is form and what is way?The Dao has no shape, it gives birth to the world, the Dao is ruthless, moves the sun and the moon, the Dao is nameless, and nourishes all things. I don’t know its name. The Dao of a strong name, the ancients said, "The Dao is wordless, and the Buddha is empty." There is no language in the world that can accurately describe it. What is the Dao? In short, everything in the world belongs to the Dao. Whether it is a person or a bird, it is a definite shape in the Dao. Human life is in the shape of animals and birds, and the life of fish and sparrows is like a dragon swimming in a phoenix. It is really the life of great wealth, if you ask how expensive this life is?Hehe...it's priceless.

This means that there are countless birds and beasts. Some people were transformed from beasts in their previous lives. This can be seen in their appearance. This is fate, and it is their own blessing.There is a key point in the method of observing people by touching their bones and skins. They are thin and long, but look at them from birds. Fat people look at them as beasts. If they look like birds, they don’t think they are thin. If they look like animals, they are fat. The most important thing is to look at fat. An Deshi?The blind man rambled all over his mouth, but he still talked logically, and made the woman submissive. In the end, she even began to be proud that she and her husband looked like beasts.

But the blind man changed the subject and denied the woman's lifelong wealth. He said that fate depends on the boat, and luck depends on the wind. "Fate" is actually two different things. It's like a huge boat, but there is no wind to help it, so you can only shelve the shoal and let it decay. You and your wife are both immortals, but you are tied down by old debts. In the dream, the black dog gnaws the foot, and the black star will be the leader. It's going to be bad luck right now, it's really dangerous, the family will be ruined at the least, and the ghost will be trapped in the ghost palace.

The fat woman was almost paralyzed by Chen Blind's words, she begged her ancestor for help, and stuffed a roll of banknotes into Chen Blind's hands. To help make suggestions, we must move as soon as possible, and put a memorial tablet in the new house, and write the six words "the county guard Li Bing is here", why?Li Bing was the governor of Shu County who built Dujiangyan during the reign of King Zhao of Qin. Erlang Zhenjun Guankou in the middle of Shu was Li Bing's second son.

The blind man took up a pen and wrote a prescription on a piece of broken paper. One finger of Longhu Mountain pine bark, three flat peach pits, two each of South Pearl and North Gallbladder, three liang of Baiwei Stone, one tail of Yellow River fish, fried in Dongting Lake water, three Boil a bowl of water to make a bowl, and take one bowl a day. After taking it for three days, you will be calm, and the sores on the soles of the feet will heal by themselves.

The fat woman was dumbfounded when she heard it, what is on this prescription?There are several medicines that I have never even heard of, and I am afraid that I can't buy them even if I have money. Could it be that they are all panacea from the sky?How can this be financed?
The blind man said it was all right, the old man sold the medicinal materials as a consignment, and asked the fat woman for some money, found a broken bowl and set fire to the prescription, and the ashes fell into the bowl and handed it to the fat woman, and told her to divide it into three parts, and take it with water. Delivery service, remember, remember.

I listened to it and laughed to myself. Finally, when Blind Chen had cheated enough money and sent the woman away, I said I wanted to find a place to talk and ask questions, so I took his blind stick and led him to Taoranting Park. In the gazebo in the middle of the road, I asked the blind man if he had pinched the fat woman accurately just now?

At the beginning, I thought Blind Chen was talking nonsense, but when I heard that he asked the fat woman to move her family, it made sense. There are black dogs and black cats gnawing feet under the bed. This house is fierce and not suitable for people to live in. If you dig the ground a few feet, you may dig out a section of black carbon. It's because there are old mounds and old graves in the basement of the house. The fat woman's house may be a haunted house, and moving away from the right and wrong place is the best policy choice.

Blind Chen was full of complacency, and said with a smile: "I don't know what kind of old man is in her house, but that fat girl's family must have done too much speculation, bribed and corrupted a lot, and sold the approval documents of the court. Unavoidable, there must be a lot of bad things. As the saying goes, a sore on the top of the head and thick soles of the feet are bad. This kind of person must inevitably be frightened, worrying day and night, and will have suspicions and ghosts. They are the most likely to listen Partial belief, even if the old man is not blind, he can calculate this hexagram. If you touch her bones, you will know that she is a stingy and unfilial animal. Her family is full of unkind and unjust wealth. , if I ran into such a rich and heartless bastard, the old man would have hacked them all clean, and sent her, a pair of thieves, to the underworld..."

I heard Chen Xiazi talk about the tomb robbery in Xiling and gathered crowds for profit, so I took the opportunity to ask him if he had been a robber before. Did he know Lao Yangpi and Yang Erdan, two Shaanxi people who can sing Qin opera?

The blind man was startled when he heard the words. Xiling Lishi was a tomb-digger who was as famous as Mojin Xiaowei and Qianshan Taoist. After the uprising of the Red Eyebrow Army in the Han Dynasty was suppressed and failed, some remnants of the tribe became bandits and scattered all over the place. Still doing some activities of killing officials and rebelling. Back then, the Red Eyebrow Army turned over the Han Mausoleum, and its remnants also retained these traditions of making money and making profits. Xilingdoudou still retains the method of smearing cinnabar or pig's blood on the eyebrows when they act, and then washes them off with water after robbing the tomb. This habit of dyeing red eyebrows to ward off evil spirits was gradually abolished in order to act more secretly. .

In the generation of Xiling, there have been leaders in the past dynasties as the chief robbers. Since the "chief" is the leader, there are too many people and troubles, so it is impossible to have no leader. The great power of seizing is not only able to dig up graves with "the technique of circle hole", but also the grass-headed emperor on the green forest road. If you don't mention the old things, you will forget them.
