Chapter 755
Therefore, as natives of Daoxian County, they have no doubts about such things as ghost soldiers passing through the corridors and ghost cubs seducing people.
After listening to people talking about it, I knew that this hunchbacked old woman on crutches was the Yama that Xiao Tang told me about.
Ya Po is usually responsible for managing the Zai Zai Temple in the woods. I remember Xiao Tang said that if anyone had to go to Gui Zailing for something, they would ask Ya Po for help first, and Ya Po would burn incense for the small temple before they dared to enter.
"Yunfeng," Xiaoxuan pulled me and asked in a low voice, "Is this person really scared to death? Do you believe it?"
I said I don’t know, why are we taking a look.
As the crowd watched, Yapo stood up shakily on crutches. She whispered a few words to a villager. After hearing this, the villager nodded repeatedly and ran away.
After a while, the man who ran away brought a pair of red couplets and a handful of incense.
Yapo drew a circle with her crutch at the entrance of Guizailing. She burned the red couplets in the circle, lit a large handful of incense, and inserted it into the burned ashes.
I looked up to the sky.
Wisps of green smoke slowly floated in the air, seeming to transform into various patterns of human faces, shrouding Guizailing for a long time, adding a bit of weirdness to this place.
After burning the couplets, the hunchbacked Yapo walked slowly into Guizailing. The other villagers looked at each other, but no one dared to follow him in.
Twenty minutes passed.
Suddenly, a sharp-eyed villager shouted in a panic: "Old Mureng! Old Mureng!" (This may be what the old lady meant.)
As soon as he finished speaking, many people saw the hunchbacked Yapo running out without even using a crutch, almost rolling and crawling!
I also saw this old woman who couldn't even straighten her waist, just ran out!
This old lady's face was originally pale, with age spots on the wrinkles on her forehead. Now her face was even paler, her lips were trembling and she shouted loudly: "Which one is dragging evil? (Who is not afraid of death?), she looks like she's gone!" "
Uncle Xue whispered, "Damn it, she said some dead person stole the statue in the small temple."
"Idol?"
I immediately thought of the late Qing cinnabar statue I saw last night. Who stole it? No, it was obviously still there last night.
I turned to look at Dou Sprouts: "Isn't it your kid who stole it?"
"Damn it!" Dou Sprout explained anxiously: "It's none of my business! I didn't steal it!"
Anyway, it was a big fuss, and many people from neighboring villages came to watch. With so many people, we didn’t dare to go look for Yin Yang Cave in the afternoon.
The man who died by the pond was from Tianguang Village. His wife said that he went to the field to cut hay for the cattle in the morning and died unexpectedly. (People in the village said they were scared to death.)
Uncle Xue was not in the house in the afternoon. He would come in the evening and drank a large bowl of water as soon as he entered the house.
"Ahem! I'm so fucking choked. I've been asking someone for a whole afternoon, and I finally figured it out."
I said, Uncle Master, please tell me what’s going on with the Zai Zai Temple in the woods.
He told what he had learned.
He said that the county cultural bureau has a Qing Dynasty county chronicle. In this county chronicle, a famous Qing Dynasty tribute student wrote about Gui Zailing. This is the only time "Gui Zailing" is mentioned in ancient books. Going forward, regardless of official history and unofficial history, Gui Zailing will be ignored. There is no record at all.
This county annals is the original. The Qing Dynasty tribute student in the book said:
"In Tianguang Village, there are strange rocks emerging from the soil, all of which are human-like. They may be called Yin soldiers. They pass by the pond at night and hear the crow of roosters, which turn into fossils. Some people see it, and their souls wander out of the body and become unconscious."
Uncle Xue said to me again: "According to the elderly people in the village, after this Gongsheng wrote the county annals, two more people died by the pond in the village. The villagers were afraid that it was an evil force, so at the end of Yi, the 21st year of Guangxu, It was at the end of 1895 that the villagers invited a capable Taoist priest from outside."
Rumor has it that in the winter of 1895, the Taoist priest sat alone in Guizailing all night. In the morning, the Taoist priest said: "This place is dangerous. I remember your kindness and wish to guard this place for a hundred years. After my death, I will be cremated and my ashes can be made." Make it into a clay statue and place it in a temple to worship it, and you will be able to keep your village safe."
"The ghost stones (those stone sculptures) will not be toppled until they are finished, and the statues will never leave the temple. Remember, remember..."
Maybe the rumors are exaggerated, but the elderly people in the village say so, so it's not groundless.
Therefore, the Taoist statue in Zaizai Temple has not moved a step since it was placed there in 1895.
What the fuck...
Don't know who stole it.
