Chapter 45 Cat Ghost (2)

"Many thanks, the Taoist priest has saved my mother." The middle-aged couple stepped forward, Offer five or six copper coins with black rust.

Lu Fan saw the copper coins in his hand, and then looked at the palms full of calluses and cracks. These coins may be their last family property.

He couldn't be ruthless to take away the last little savings of these hard-working people. The Taoist sect believed in getting paid and getting something. After all, not all Taoist priests had money, or extraordinary skills, and could achieve food and clothing. No worries, there are still many Taoist priests who depend on it for a living. If he only does things without receiving money, what will happen to other Taoist priests?
Without income, those Taoist priests would not be making a living. Without these Taoists, who would the people of Limin ask for help when they encounter such a thing again?
After thinking about it for a while, Lu Fan pushed the coins back and said, "Lay, if it's convenient, can you give me a bowl of hot tea, and let me feed the horses while you are making some well water and grass."

Lu Fan was sitting on the stone under the tree, the pottery bowl next to him was filled with hot water, and the old horse under the tree was eating the grass leisurely. While drinking tea, Lu Fan explained some taboos to the villagers.

This time, the cat-faced old lady turned into a corpse. as the saying goes Chickens and ducks are no more than six, cats and dogs are no more than eight. It means that chickens and ducks cannot be raised for more than six years, and cats and dogs cannot be raised for more than eight years, because chickens, ducks, cats and dogs are animals with spirituality. After a long time, they will be influenced by people and become more humane, which may lead to will become refined.

And when there is a funeral, there can be no cats or dogs in the house, because the sympathy of the breath will easily cause the corpse to change.

This time, the old lady's corpse transformation was caused by the old black cat she had raised at home for more than ten years. This old cat has lived in his home for more than ten years, and has been through human nature. After the old lady died, this black cat sneaked into the coffin, reincarnated in someone else's body, and wanted to become a human being, but it was only after all. Evil Dao, not only can't transform into human beings, but also become cat ghosts.

The cat ghost has existed since ancient times, and it is mostly used for curses. The most famous incident came from the former Sui Dynasty, "Sui Shu·Houfei Biography·Documentary Queen Dugu": "Later half-brother Tuo, with cat ghost witch. Gu, curse at the back, sit down and die." It was said that Queen Dugu's younger sister used cat ghosts to harm her.

Although cat ghosts have been expressly prohibited in the former Sui Dynasty, the folks still emerge one after another.

Golden Crow pendant.

Lu Fan looked at the surrounding environment.

"It looks like I'm going to sleep in the wild again today."

Walking around a hill, Lu Fan suddenly saw a wisp of cooking smoke, "I'm so lucky, there is a village here? "

Seeing the smoke, Lu Fan's eyes shined, and he immediately rushed in the direction of the smoke. When he got closer, he realized that it was a ruined temple. .

Looking up, one old and one young in the temple are sitting beside a bonfire. On the bonfire is a broken clay pot, which seems to be some grass seeds and rye.

"Blessed life Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable. I'm bothering the two laymen, the sky will be dark, Poor Daoist plans to stay here for one night, and I hope it's convenient." Lu Fan snorted.

"The Daoist is very polite, my father and son are just staying in this deserted temple, the Daoist will take care of you." The middle-aged man cupped his hands and said.

Lu Fan's eyes swept over the calluses on his hand lightly, said with a slight smile: "Then many thanks."

Lu Fan is in this ruined temple I found a clean place and sat down.

"Where is the layman going?" Lu Fan asked, looking at the middle age person in front of him.

“My family was hit by a disaster. I took my son to Huaiyang to go to relatives.” said the middle age person.

"Huaiyang, it's hundreds of miles away, but Huaiyang County is a good place to go without disaster," Lu Fan said.

"The Taoist priest is from Huaiyang?" Hearing Lu Fan's words, the middle age person became interested.

"Passing over there."

He then asked Lu Fan about the situation in Huaiyang County, and Lu Fan also told him what he knew.

"Father, the porridge is ready." The emaciated child by the bonfire shouted to the middle age person.

"I have no money, so I can only serve the Taoist priest with wild vegetable porridge." middle age person said with a bitter smile.

Lu Fan shook his head and said, "It's for the layman's own use.

Lu Fan basically doesn't eat other people's food when he is away from home. The world is very chaotic, so it is better to be careful. Fortunately, there is enough space in his bottle gourd, and all kinds of materials are abundant. worry about starvation.

Although the middle age person in front of him looks ordinary, it would be a fool to treat him as an ordinary person.

Can an ordinary person travel with a child in such a place? Judging from the calluses on the hands of the middle age person, this is definitely a good hand with a knife.

"dīng líng líng!"

There was a sudden bell sound outside the broken temple, followed by a loud noise. Immediately afterwards, the temple door was pushed open, and several big men walked in.

"Everyone, if you are going out for business, please take your convenience and stay here for one night." The big man cupped his hands and said.

"Hehe, I'm not the landlord here, and I'm also out of the house. You can do it yourself." The man said laughter.

"So many thanks." The brawny man cup one fist in the other hand said.

Soon the outside of the broken temple began to get busy. The caravan was small, about twenty people. After the carriage was placed, they came to rest in the broken temple.

After there were more people, it became even more quiet in this ruined temple. The three parties sat in their own places without any intention of communicating. Those caravans soon began to live cooking.

Lu Fan meditated cross-legged after eating a few compressed biscuits, and soon the sky turned dark.

the moon rise in the middle of the sky, everyone in the ruined temple has fallen asleep, only those piles of bonfires are still burning, the night wind has stopped, wisps of fog do not know where It drifted away, and soon the whole between Heaven and Earth seemed to be covered with a veil. The moonlight also became dim and dim. In the ruined temple, the overwhelming majority had already fallen asleep, and only two men were sitting by the bonfire to keep watch.

"What sound?" said one of the men with a scar on his face suddenly.

"What's the matter? Didn't hear anything?" Another man asked with some doubts.

"I think I heard some noises outside," said the scarred man.

"You heard it wrong, who is there in this wild country at night?" Another man said with curled lips.

Just at this time, a clamor of faintly discernable suddenly came, and both of them heard it this time. 、

"Go, go out and have a look, if something is wrong, send a signal immediately!" said the man with the scarred face.

The two of them walked out of the ruined temple one after the other, and a layer of mist had risen outside the ruined temple. After a simple inspection, the goods and horses around were fine. When returning, the noise came again.
