ghost craftsman

Chapter 130

Zhang Dequan and Sixth Uncle heard my question, and their faces changed slightly. Zhang Dequan seemed to want to say something, but was stopped by Sixth Uncle. Liu Shu said, "Oh, it's just a small problem."

I didn't believe it, so I asked again, but the sixth uncle still didn't say anything, but kept pulling me out, saying that I was going to Niuwang Village to be a living god, and that the villagers in Niuwang Village were enthusiastic, singing and singing So proficient.

According to my original meaning, it was to follow him.After all, it is very important to have a good relationship with them when you are new here.

What made me depressed was that Zhang Dequan grabbed me who was about to go out, and said in a deep voice: "Chuanzi, don't go out with Little Six, he just wants to go out."

Hearing this, I looked at Zhang Dequan, then at Uncle Liu, and heard Uncle Liu say, "Forget it, I'll take Mr. Zhao and the others there."

After all, he went out and went straight to the second floor.

After he left, only Zhang Dequan and I were left in the room. Zhang Dequan first put the money in a box under the bed, and then pulled me to sit by the bed. He handed me a cigarette and asked me in a low voice. : "Chuanzi, are you really a craftsman?"

I hummed and said, "I just joined the industry for a year."

He glanced at me indifferently, shook the ashes again, and said: "That's it, the temple we built this time will be taken over by Boss Wu, and I will be in charge. Before starting work, there are some things I have to tell you." Speak up in advance."

I nodded and said with a smile, "Say it."

I don't know what's going on, I feel that his face is extremely heavy, and he doesn't speak, so I tell the story of digging the foundation before.

He glanced around, got up and walked over again, closed the door, then came to me, and said softly: "Chuanzi, since you are a ghost craftsman, I will not hide it from you. In the morning, Let's dig the foundation and dig this out!"

While speaking, he bent down and looked under the bed.

Soon, he pulled out a large wooden box from under the bed, opened the wooden box, and there were some messy tools inside.However, my eyes were attracted by something on the leftmost side of the wooden box.

The thing was about a foot long and fifteen centimeters wide. It was wrapped in a piece of red cloth, and the outside of the red cloth was tied with a few thin wires.

Just when I was dazed for a while, that Zhang Dequan took the thing out, and while fiddling with the thin wire on it, he said, "Little Liu said it's okay to bury it in the ground. But, I always feel uncomfortable in my heart." Practical."

While speaking, he had already tore off the red cloth, and what he saw was a wooden carving, and the sculptor looked familiar. After looking carefully, I realized that this wooden carving was Lu Dongbin, one of the engraved eight immortals.

What is strange is that the eyes of this wood carving have been removed, leaving only two empty eye sockets, and a layer of red liquid is applied inside the eye sockets. What is even more strange is that the hands of this wood carving are tied behind the There are two lines of red words on it, which read, "It's hard to have a healthy child's breath if you have fun with your knees."It's better to sleep with animals and reunite together under the spring'.

The red handwriting is like a living thing, jumping on the arms, powerful, majestic, and full of arrogance, it even gave me the illusion that this font seems to have evil spirits, looking at it, can affect people Sight.

When I saw this, how could I care so much, I quickly took the wood carving from Zhang Dequan, studied it carefully, and found that the wood carving was made of high-quality crabapple wood. Judging from the quality of this wood carving, it must be at least a hundred years history.However, the handwriting seems to have been engraved recently.

Seeing me staring at my wood carving, Zhang Dequan asked softly beside me, "Chuanzi, do you see anything?"

I thought about it, and slowly said: "Someone probably didn't want you to build a temple, so I made such a wooden sculpture!"

There is a reason for me to say this. Let’s start with the woodcarving. The woodcarving is Lu Dongbin. Among the folks, no matter what industry they are in, they all have their own ancestors, such as Lu Ban, the carpenter’s ancestor, and the teacher’s ancestor. Confucius and Lu Dongbin are the patriarchs of brothels.

Of course, there are two versions of the patriarch of the brothel, one is Guan Zhong from the Spring and Autumn Period.The reason is that at that time, Qi State had just experienced wars and was waiting for prosperity. Guan Zhong was also a talent. He keenly discovered that the tertiary industry was a shortcut to get rich quickly, so he organized girls to go to other countries to earn money.

Needless to say, this method is easy to use and makes money quickly. In the end, Guan Zhong even launched a cross-age popular project in Qi State, opening brothels. Known as the female Lu.

The effect of this woman's wife is very good, that is, it increases the country's income, fills up the military expenditure, and eases and reconciles social conflicts.

Because of the official support, the brothels at that time were operated openly and aboveboard, with the meaning of "opening the door to the east to welcome guests from all over the world". It is also because of this that later generations of brothels regard Guan Zhong as a "protector god". , Over time, it was even passed down as the Patriarch.

As for the relationship between Lu Dongbin and the brothel, it is rumored that Lu Dongbin had cured sex workers and taught them to become immortals. Of course, there are also vulgar people who changed Lu Dongbin's name into a female Dongbin. Anyway, it is rumored that it is Lu Dongbin and sex workers. They are inextricably linked, and there is no way to verify what happened specifically.

However, in the eyes of sex workers, Lu Dongbin is a real living god. Every year on the [-]th day of the fourth month of the lunar calendar, Lu Zu’s birthday, many sex workers will go to Lu Temple to offer incense, pray for Lu Dongbin’s protection, and buy them in the temple. I brought back a 'fairy flower' in the hope that Lu Dongbin would bless me to find a real love life.

These two statements are still not accurate.

I said this to Zhang Dequan, and I was even more puzzled. What does the construction of the temple have to do with Lu Dongbin's woodcarving?

Could it be...

Immediately, I quickly asked Zhang Dequan, "Uncle Zhang, isn't Niuwang Village just a brothel?"

He hummed softly, but didn't speak, but kept his eyes on Lu Dongbin's wood carving.

As soon as I heard him hum, my face suddenly changed, and I said angrily: "Isn't this just nonsense, how can I build a temple for a brothel? Isn't this slapping Lu Zu in the face?"

I say this because my brother once said that women are generally prohibited from entering Lu Zu's temples, in order to fear that some sex workers will go in to seek protection and tarnish Lu Zu's name.

There is no way around this. Lu Zu belongs to Taoism, and Taoism has always paid attention to face, but sex workers are not accepted by the secular world, which is why this happened.

Hearing what I said, Zhang Dequan smiled awkwardly and said: "This is nothing to do. Who made Niuwang Village rich? Don't talk about building a temple if you have money, even if you build an Afang Palace. What!"

I couldn't accept it, and my impression of Mr. Wu plummeted in my heart, so I asked him: "Mr. Wu also accepts this kind of work?"
