Chapter 1
My hometown is at the junction of Hubei and Jiangxi. Because of my occupation, I can't tell which place it is. After all, I have been in the rivers and lakes for many years, and I am afraid that some ghosts and evil things will come to my house and hurt my parents.

Our place has had a revolution with the party in the early years, and monuments to martyrs are everywhere.But after so many years, it is still the case that birds don't shit and dogs don't love their homes.

People are poor and there are many strange things. When I was a child, I often heard people say that ghosts got on the body of witches and psychics, female corpses ran out of coffins, and water monkeys lived in the reservoir, with red hair and green teeth.

The older generation believed in ghosts and gods, but our generation thinks they are deceitful. Without this scruple, murders and other incidents have increased.

And I became a Feng Shui master because of an accident.

When I just graduated from university in 06, I suffered from tuberculosis and lost my job. After recovering from my illness, I resell tickets and do electronic business to make ends meet.

At the beginning of 08, a friend from Shenzhen asked me to go to the whole store to do electronic business.I asked my father for 5 yuan and took away his last coffin book.As a result, in the 08 financial crisis, 5 yuan fell into the sea like a mud cow.On New Year's Eve, I have no face to go home, and greet the new year on the flyover in a foreign land.A wandering singer is playing and singing "Huahuo": This is a performance without an end...Drunk like a wild pigeon that can't find its way...

On the Ching Ming Festival in 2009, my father called me and asked me to go back to worship my ancestors, saying that if I didn't go back, I would not recognize my son.My father said such a thing, so I had to buy a ticket to go back.Perhaps in the past three years, the bad luck is that there is no blessing from the ancestors, and it is necessary to pay homage to it.

When I got off the train in the county seat, I bought two bottles of 12-year-old Zhijiang Daqu.When I got home, my mother laughed a lot and tried to kill chickens and ducks, and then went to the market to buy fresh pork ribs stewed soup to replenish my body.My father patted me on the shoulder and said, "You finally came back, let me have a good drink together."

After a meal, two bottles of white wine bottomed out.My father drank so much that he almost got under the table.

I was unconscious at the time, woke up in the middle of the night, and ran out to vomit. I didn’t know why and started crying. I quickly covered my mouth with my hands, fearing that my parents would hear it and make them feel sad.Looking up, I saw an old man standing not far away: "Come to my house tomorrow, and I will treat you..." When I turned around and left, I saw a braid dragging behind his back.

I rubbed my eyes hastily, there was no trace of the old man there.

On the day of Qingming, my mother found a bamboo basket and filled it with white wine, wine glasses, bacon and dried fish, paper money and incense.Mother also said that it is popular to bring fruit now, and put two more apples on it: "When the offering is over, eat the apples on the way. Your ancestors will bless you too."

My father and I each brought a hatchet, and my father put on Jiefang shoes and led the way very skillfully.Our local burials are characterized by scattered burials.Some of the tombs are deep in the mountains, surrounded by thatched trees and vines, so it takes a lot of effort to find them.

"Walking in the mountains is the place where they live. It's the same as our human beings living scattered." My father said as he walked, "You should take note of the location of each coffin and tomb. After a hundred years, don't forget to come back every year. Worshiping ancestors, one cannot forget one's roots..."

At noon, I drilled deep into the woods, my face was cut several times by the sharp thatch, and I almost bumped into some powerful wild boars. After a lot of hard work, I finally found the last coffin of graves.

On the very small tombstone, there are still a few small words. The inscription is "20 years of Daoguang..." It is the year when the Opium War broke out during the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty.

I remember that in the Qing Dynasty, because the Manchus entered the customs, they all dragged long braids.While I was looking at the tombstone, a ten-centimeter-long bug jumped out of nowhere.My whole body was bent like a bow, and it suddenly bounced up and landed on my shoulders. Hundreds of densely packed feet crawled on my body. There was an itchy feeling, and it burrowed into the clothes along the neck.

I was so frightened that I shook my body quickly, yelled, and stretched out my hand to drive the bug out.

The insect crawled quickly on my body, entered from my neck, crawled on my heart and buttocks, and seemed to be peeping at my ass.Fortunately, the bugs didn't bite me during the whole process, and finally crawled out from the bottom of my trousers.

The ground worms were pitch black, and they burrowed into the soil in an instant and disappeared.I chased after it and hacked vigorously with the hatchet. There was no sign of the bug, and it ran faster than the wild dog...

What puzzled me was that the bug was white when it jumped on the shoulder, but it turned black when it fell to the ground, which was incredible.

As soon as I got home in the afternoon, I started to have a fever. I always felt a ringing sound in my ears, and someone was blowing the wind in my ears. I was shivering, and my limbs were cold.

The mother asked with concern: "Why don't you ask Aunt An to take a look, after all, it's a bug that jumped up from the grave, it's a bit weird, maybe it's not something in the world?"

Aunt An is an old witch in our village. Years of college education made me hate her very much. Every year, I hear examples of her death due to superstitious delays in sending her to the doctor. I don’t want to be a new example.

I insisted that my father send me to the hospital in the town. I had a high fever for five days, but my mind was very clear, but my body was weak. In the past three years, I don't know how much I have suffered and suffered so much. Is it possible that I am finally freed at this moment.

Outside the ward, the mother came to test in a low voice: "How about I go and invite the child's grandfather." I knew there was such a grandfather, but I didn't have the chance to meet him. He didn't have much contact with our family.It is rare to see it during holidays, and I don't know why.

Father hesitated for a while and said: "Go, he has not been at home for many years, it is not certain whether he can be found..."

That night, I saw my grandfather come in wearing a straw hat and straw sandals. The most memorable thing is his pair of eyes, which seem to be able to see through everything.

It seems that Mr. Yin Yang and Feng Shui Master of the country are a top-notch master. He drove his father and mother out of the ward as soon as he entered the ward.

Grandpa stared at me twice: "Xiao Qi. You have three years of calamity, and now it's almost full. If you get over it, the road ahead will be easier. If you can't resist it, it's hard to say."

Grandpa pulled out the needle and continued, "The bug that bit you is called Yin-sucking centipede, which lives in hundreds of caves in the mountains and specializes in sucking Yin Qi and other things. You met it and broke you." You are lucky because the insects are poisonous, once they crawl on you, you will burn for seven days..."

When my grandfather said this, it reminded me of the old man with long braids who appeared when he ran out to spit out wine on the night of Qingming Festival, "Come to my house tomorrow, and I will cure you for you." Head roaring.

But things really happened right in front of me.People in the Qing Dynasty wore braids, and the old man wore them; let me go to his house, and I really went to visit the grave.

The pussy-sucking centipede jumped on me and ran for a while, neither stinging me nor biting me, but sucking away the yin energy from my body.It's just that the insects are a bit poisonous, which caused me to have a high fever for five days for no reason, and it really helped me "cure..." Yin Qi.
