Paper Maker

Chapter 74 The Disaster in Liu Family Village (1)

I saw this copper needle in my hand, about seven inches long, with runes engraved on it. How could I not recognize this kind of evil thing, because this kind of thing is called the seven-inch soul-locking needle.

The so-called seven-inch soul-locking needle is a kind of insidious spell in Yin Yang art. A seven-inch long copper needle is engraved with a soul-locking curse, and the onmyoji must penetrate the head of the dead person when he is about to die. above.When that person dies, its soul will be locked in the body due to the soul fixation. After seven to seven days, the soul can leave the body, but it can only circle around the body, even if it leaves, it will return .

In other words, if someone uses the seven-inch soul-locking needle, the soul will not be able to reincarnate or go to the underworld.However, because they cannot be reincarnated, their grievances continue to increase, so they will turn into evil spirits and take their lives all day long. Anyone who passes by their surroundings is easily hit or seduced by them.

Because this kind of sorcery will not only make the dead unable to live forever, but also cause the dead to become resentful souls after death, thus harming the living.Therefore, this kind of sorcery has always been criticized by people. If there is no mortal hatred, few people will use it.After all, this kind of evil technique is too vicious, and using this technique will damage one's own morality to some extent.

I recognized the seven-inch soul-locking needle that had been driven into the top of the female corpse's head, and I couldn't help but sigh. It seems that Liu Laoer really manipulated her body, making it impossible for her to be reincarnated forever.

However, after the seven-inch soul-locking needle was taken out, I was also a little worried, because the seven-inch soul-locking needle can lock the soul, which means that the soul of the female corpse may be in this room, or not far away.

Just when I was worried, I turned around and saw her!The ghost of the female corpse stood quietly behind me like this...

I felt my scalp go numb at the time, and what frightened me wasn't the appearance of the fierce spirit, but that I didn't know when she started standing behind me.

The female ghost looked at me and asked, "Did you see my brother?"

I shook my head, and the other party disappeared in a flash.

Seeing her appearing suddenly and then disappearing suddenly, I was totally taken aback. I thought there would be a fight today.Her brother?I remember that when I went upstairs, a fierce spirit ran down the stairs. Could it be her brother?
If I can't figure it out, I don't want to think about it. At least this visit to Liujia Village is not in vain. I have learned too many secrets.

In order not to conflict with that female ghost for the time being, I decided to go back first. First, because I was not prepared enough this time, and I don’t know how many ghosts are in this room. If there is a conflict, it will be very troublesome; second, here The ghosts of this place will not deliberately go out to harm people, and no one usually comes to this place, so there is no rush; there is another most important reason, that is because I always feel that Ma Zhenren should know Liu Laoer, It will be safer to make a decision after going back and asking Ma Zhenren.

I immediately turned around and went downstairs. When I left the No. [-] old house, as soon as I got out of the gate, the gate shut itself with a "squeak", which made me stare blankly.I thought to myself, is there a fierce spirit in this house that has been staring at me in the dark?
However, thinking that I have stayed in the house for so long, the other party has not treated me well, and even if there is a murderous spirit, it should not be malicious towards me.

When I left Liujia Village and passed the dilapidated house again, the family appeared at the gate again, waving at me.I shivered, and then hurried to the outside of the village...

At noon, I returned to the city and returned to Ma Zhenren's paper-making shop.

Seeing that I was back, Ma Zhenren asked me how things were going.If you can't do it, forget it. People must know how to retreat in spite of difficulties.

I said, "Last night, another policeman died. He was killed by the body we brought back from Liujia Village."

Ma Zhenren was slightly surprised, sighed, and then acted as if nothing had happened, while using the computer to fight the landlord, while saying: "Now you know, you can't afford to provoke these things, and the police can't deal with them." , let's stop earlier, so as not to cause a big disaster."

Seeing his unhurried look, I knew that he did it on purpose, and he must be trying to persuade me to retreat.However, I am not that kind of person, so I said: "This morning, I went to Liujia Village again, and I found out some things."

When Master Ma heard this, he couldn't bear it anymore, put down the game in his hand, turned to me and asked, "You went to Liujia Village again?"

I nodded and said, "I met some evil spirits, and they also died of ecstasy, and according to the evil spirits, it was our colleague, a paper maker named Liu Laoer, who killed them!"

Ma Zhenren was obviously taken aback, then he sighed: "You shouldn't know this."

"Why?" I became more and more curious about Ma Zhenren's words, and I said, "Uncle Master, tell the truth, do you know that paper maker named Liu Lao Er, and do you know something about Liu's Village? Because I hear something from what you're saying, and I feel like you must know something."

Ma Zhenren looked at me, and after a long time he sighed again, and said: "Oh, maybe it's really a narrow road to Yuanjia! To tell you the truth, your grandfather and I are both from the Liu family village, and Liu's second child is my and your grandfather's junior brother. , his father, Liu Yishou, was the master of me and your grandfather."

"Ah?" I was really stunned at this moment. Although I have always suspected that Ma Zhenren knew something about Liujia Village, after thinking about it, I never thought that the final result would be like this. And my grandfather will be Liu Lao Er's senior brother, and Liu Yishou will be Ma Zhenren's master.This news, undoubtedly like a thunderbolt, completely stupefied me.

Seeing my shocked look, Ma Zhenren looked quite natural, and he said: "Your grandfather and I were orphans before. In the years before liberation, there were many people who starved to death, but the reason why your grandfather and I were able to survive , we were taken in by Liu Yishou. Master Liu not only gave us food, but also passed on our craftsmanship. Your grandfather and I will never forget his great kindness and virtue. Alas... it’s just that good people don’t get good In the end, he was killed by someone."

It turns out that Liu Yishou is such a good person?Thinking of this, I asked Ma Zhenren: "Then how did Shigong die? Did he die because of the trend of destroying the four old things?"

Ma Zhenren saw that it was impossible to hide from me anymore, so he told the whole truth.

It turns out that Liu Laoer's father is Liu Yishou, a paper maker who knows the art of yin and yang in the paper making industry. Liu Laoer, my grandfather, and Ma Zhenren taught their skills through Liu Yishou.It is said that Liu Yishou is kind to others and proficient in yin and yang techniques, so he has a great reputation in the local area. Anyone who encounters any evil disease or disaster will come to the Liu family for help, and Liu Yishou is also willing to help others, and his reputation in the village is very high.

But right after liberation, there was a wave of breaking the four olds in China, and Liujia Village was not immune.At that time, Liu Yishou was in his sixties. He has always been kind to others. There is no one in the local area who has not received his favor and help, and even saved many lives. However, he was finally arrested by the local people. Got up and was fought to death.

When the city was on the crest of the wave of criticism against the Four Olds, Liu Yishou of Liujia Village called Ma Zhenren, my grandfather, and his son Liu Laoer to the front, and told the three of them to leave quickly, because he It is expected that everyone will have a catastrophe this time, and if they do not leave their hometowns, they will suffer great disasters.

At that time, the three of them were unwilling to leave Liu Yishou, and even if they wanted to leave, he had to go with the old man, but Liu Yishou didn't follow him, saying that he was almost buried, so where else could he go?No way, Liu beat them out of the house with one hand.

As soon as Ma Zhenren and the three left, something happened to Liu Yishou.At that time, Liu Baisheng, the secretary of the village brigade, led the whole village to Liu Yishou's home. When he saw Liu Yishou, he was tied up and his house was ransacked.He was said to be a propagandist of ghosts and monsters, a big cancer of feudal superstition, and he was imprisoned in the cowshed in the village.

In this way, Liu Yishou, who was over sixty years old, was tied up by Wuhua Da, with a big sign hanging around his neck, and he was dragged to be criticized every day.Kneeling in the village auditorium today, I was scolded, beaten, and criticized by the whole village. After the criticism was over, the next day I was dragged to the neighboring village to criticize.Wherever he went, where he was criticized, and where he was beaten and scolded, he was regarded as a model for the surrounding villages.

He was originally a kind and respected old man, but in the blink of an eye he became a prisoner.Originally, the local people were favored by him and saved everyone's lives, but in a blink of an eye, all the family, human, and kindness disappeared. Even his brothers and relatives had drawn a clear line with him early on, and they were unwilling to be with such The enemy of a social master has nothing to do with it.

At that time, in their eyes, Liu Yishou was their enemy and the enemy of the people of the whole country. Because of Liu Yishou, China would not make progress, and because of people like Liu Yishou, the country would not be prosperous and strong. .In short, he is the scum, garbage, and cancer of society.

Liu Yishou, an old man in his 60s, is now kept in a stinky, dark and damp cowshed every night, hungry and cold, and has to be taken to the village auditorium to kneel in front of everyone for criticism during the day.How can an old man in his 60s bear such a crime? Even if he can bear it physically, he can't bear it mentally.In this way, Liu Yishou, who was regarded as a typical example of breaking the four old rules, after half a month of painful torture, he chose to commit suicide. When the villagers went to arrest him again the next day and sent him to the neighboring village for criticism, they found him dead. In the cowshed, he was hanged in the cowshed with straw ropes made of straw stalks for the cows...

When Ma Zhenren and Liu Lao Er learned of what happened to Liu Yishou, they ran back to Liu's Village and snatched Liu Yishou's body back.Because Liujia Village held a collective meeting, thinking that Liu Yishou was a big cancer in society, and wanted to overthrow all ghosts and snakes, and all feudal superstitions.Wasn't Liu Yishou the favorite propagandist of superstition?It was said that a person should hide Fengshui well after death, so he was not allowed to hide Fengshui well, because Fengshui is superstitious, so the collective meeting unanimously decided to burn Liu Yishou's body.

In the early days of liberation, this was called dead bones, and it sounded vicious to Liu Laoer and the others.Liu Yishou was killed by them, and they didn't even let him go after he died, and even burned his body.

Therefore, Liu Er Er took Ma Zhenren and my grandfather back to Liujia Village, and snatched Liu Yishou's body back.Although the body was snatched back, Liu Laoer failed to escape from Liujia Village. He was caught by the villagers and became the public enemy of the people again.

Speaking of this, Ma Zhenren looked very helpless and sighed sadly.

I said, "Then what happened afterwards? What happened to Liu's second son?"
