Lonnie and the others also noticed the black energy and put down the knives and forks in their hands.
"Mother Dundup, may I ask you a question?"
I asked with a smile.
"Young man, you can ask whatever you want. As long as I know the old lady, I will tell you everything."
Dunzhu's mother said with a kind face.
"The tableware in your home is so beautiful. Where did you buy it?"
Dunzhu's mother was stunned, then smiled and said: "You said these tableware are not bought, they are dug out of the soil."
Immediately, with our surprised eyes, Dunzhu’s mother told us the origin of these silver tableware.
The soil quality in the area near Laoniu Bay is very poor and meadows are scarce. Villagers tend their cattle and often have to travel very far. It is very common to walk dozens of miles every day.
Not long ago, villager Tenzin drove a group of yaks and discovered a large green meadow in the valley fifty miles outside the village, which no one had ever set foot on.
Tenzin was overjoyed and immediately drove the cattle into the valley, intending to let them eat as much as they could.
The cattle were scattered around the valley munching on the grass, while Tenzin found a gentle slope and lay down to rest for a while.
But just as he closed his eyes, he heard a high-pitched moo coming from the cattle.
Tenzin thought that a ferocious beast was attacking the cattle, so he jumped up. However, he saw that half of the body of a yak had sunk deep into the grass.
He quickly ran over and pulled the yak out with great effort.
Only then did he realize that the bottom of the turf was actually empty. He curiously pushed aside the turf, and found crystal cups, silver plates and other tableware buried under the grass.
Tenzin was very happy, so he dug out all the tableware, put them into a bag, and let a yak carry them back to Laoniu Bay.
After Tenzin returned to the village, he distributed the dug out tableware to the villagers.
Most of the local villagers were kind and simple, and did not have much knowledge. After seeing the shiny silver tableware, they all liked it very much and accepted Tenzin's gift without scrutinizing the source.
"Young man, is there something wrong with these tableware?"
After telling me about the origin of the tableware, Dunzhu’s mother asked me with some anxiety.
"Mother Dunzup, these tableware should come from an ancient tomb. They are contaminated with a lot of evil spirits. It is best to discard them as soon as possible."
I said it truthfully.
"this……"
Dunzhu's mother turned to look at Liao Xian'er again, wanting to hear her opinion.
"Mother Dunzhu, Mr. Cheng is also a Taoist, and his judgment will not be wrong. If this thing is left at home, it will disturb people's consciousness. Over time, evil spirits will enter the body and cause various strange diseases. It is better to destroy it as soon as possible. Bar."
Dunzhu's mother was most convinced of Liao Xian'er. After hearing what she said, she nodded immediately.
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
"But other villagers also have several sets of tableware like this at home. Do you want me to inform them?"
Liao Xianer thought for a moment and then said: "Well, Mother Dunzhu, we will help you deal with it first, and then we will go door to door to inform everyone."
"This kind of thing is harmful and useless. If it is not cleared away, it may bring disaster to the entire village."
Dunzhu’s mother said more and immediately agreed with Liao Xianer’s opinion.
So, we put aside the tableware around us, finished our meal in a hurry, then gathered the tableware and placed it in the middle of the courtyard.
Liao Xian'er stood in front, reciting the charm silently, then flicked her wrist, and a silver charm flew out from her sleeve.
boom!
A blue flame suddenly rose, and amid the burning fire, bursts of wailing sounds came out of the crystal cup, and countless strands of black energy came out, and were completely incinerated by the fire.
After a while, the black air dissipated, and the tableware turned into a ball of powder in the fire.
"Mother Dundup, we can go to other villagers' homes."
"Okay, I'll take you there!"
Dunzhu's mother agreed repeatedly and led us out of the house and towards the nearest villager.
With Dunzhu's mother's help in explaining and our trust in Liao Xian'er, our group encountered no obstacles. The villagers handed over the tableware one after another and asked us to destroy it.
There are only thirty households in Laoniuwan. Within an hour, we have arrived at the west end of the village, in front of the last house.
The head of this family was Tenzin who was the first to discover these evil things.
Standing at the door of Tenzin's house, Liao Xian'er, who was always straightforward, couldn't help but stop and showed hesitation.
"Mr. Liao, what's wrong?"
I walked up and asked curiously.
"Brother Tenzin is a thorn in the side, and he has some misunderstandings about me. This time it may not go so smoothly."
Liao Xian'er said worriedly.
Immediately, after my questioning, she talked about the origin of the grudge between herself and Tenzin.
It turned out that three years ago, an adult pangolin appeared in Laoniu Bay, wandering around, digging holes and building nests. The small farmland that the villagers had just reclaimed in the mountains was severely damaged.
After Liao Xianer learned the news, she came down from Shanmen Mountain to help the villagers get rid of the demon.
Although the pangolin is average in strength, it moves nimble and sharp. It shuttles back and forth between the mountains and fields, making it difficult to catch.
Liao Xianer spent all his efforts to block the pangolin in a farmland.
In order to prevent the pangolin from escaping underground, Liao Xianer directly used a flame to burn the entire farmland, and the pangolin also died in the fire.
Unfortunately, the owner of that farmland was Tenzin. When he saw that his farmland was destroyed, he refused to forgive Liao Xian'er and demanded that she compensate for his losses.
Liao Xian'er was kind-hearted and considered it her responsibility, so she gave Tenzin a large sum of money as compensation.
Who would have thought that Tenzin was usually lazy, but when he saw how rich Liao Xianer was, he started to have bad ideas.
Every ten days and a half, he would go to the gate of Liao Xianer Mountain, yell and make a fuss, and ask for money from Liao Xianer.
After all, Tenzin is an ordinary person, and Liao Xianer cannot use force against him. In order to protect the mountain gate from being disturbed, he gave Tenzin a sum of money several times before sending Tenzin down the mountain.
Tenzin didn't know how to give up when he saw good things. He thought that Liao Xian'er was easy to bully, so he became more and more arrogant. He opened his mouth at every turn and came to Liao Xian'er for compensation.
Until the fifth time, when he ran to the mountain gate and shouted and made a fuss, several disciples inside the mountain gate could no longer hold back and ran out, beat him up and drove him down the mountain.
Tenzin did not dare to cause trouble at Shanmen, but instead thought that Liao Xian'er had asked someone to beat him up, so he hated her even more, and the feud between the two was finally forged.
"I thought it was some huge misunderstanding, is this it?"
After listening to Liao Xianer's story, I couldn't help laughing.
"This Tenzin knows no good and deserves to be beaten. Besides, our trip is for his safety. If he doesn't agree, just let him be."
