Wu Dan woke up from a nightmare and found that there was no wife beside him. He called Ma Guilan several times, but there was no reply. He only heard a "pop, pop, pop" sound under the edge of the bed. He lit the lamp and found that Ma Guilan had rolled off the edge of the bed and was foaming at the mouth.
At this time, he was helpless and shouted to the village house shrouded in darkness: Help! My family is suffering from an acute illness... The rat spirit achieved its goal of awakening Wu Thant, and was about to leave, but was stopped by Black and White. The rat spirit thought that the two ghost servants were here to get the soul of the patient Ma Guilan. Unexpectedly, Hei Wuchang shook off a black rope, and Bai Wuchang shook off a white belt. After twisting it around a few times, they tied up the rat spirit and dragged it into a crack in the ground. The rat spirit shouted: Why is this? What bad things have I done? Both Black and White Wuchang said in one breath: "Don't say anything more. The Wheel King has sent us to arrest you. We will find out when we get to the Wheel Wheel King Palace."
The Palace of the Wheel King is also called the Palace of Reincarnation. It is the palace where the souls of living beings go to the underworld to be reborn according to their karma after death. Before reincarnation, one must read the merit and demerit list. Those whose merits outweigh their faults will be assigned blessings when they come to this palace. Those who are rich and well-off will be reincarnated, but those whose merits are too high or whose faults are too severe will not be allowed to be reincarnated in a human body, or they can only be reincarnated in families with miserable conditions. There are also some who cannot be reincarnated for a while and can only be tortured for a long time in a hell dominated by evil spirits and evil spirits. After reaching maturity, he may be reborn as an animal or as a hungry ghost. If he has meritorious deeds, he may be promoted to a servant in the underworld, etc.
At this moment, the bound rat spirit came to the Reincarnation Hall in a flash of thought. Black and white Wuchang asked the wheel-turning king who was sitting upright in the hall: Report to the king, the rat spirit has been captured, how to deal with it? Chakravartin waved his hands and said: "You two servants, please quickly untie the rat spirit. I asked you to summon him, not to tie him up." He is now a rat spirit, has done some good deeds, and should no longer be treated like a villain or an evil animal.
At this time, both Black and White Wuchang knelt down and turned to Rat Spirit: Please forgive Grandpa Rat Spirit. As soon as the words stopped, all the black and white straps on the rat spirit were loosened and disappeared. The rat spirit stood up, raised his hands and saluted the Wheel-turning King: Thank you for your forgiveness.
Rat spirit, I hope that you have secretly done some meritorious deeds that benefit all sentient beings in the world. Of course, this is also due to your good karma. Today, I want you to end your life as a rat spirit and be reincarnated into a human body. After you are born, you must not be tempted by the prosperous world, indulge in selfish desires, be mercenary, commit murder, and harm the laws of nature. Otherwise, even if you are born, you will not have a good death, and you will fall into the lower realms and fall into the boundless sea of suffering after death. You must remember this. The Wheel-turning King walked down the terrace and looked at the rat spirit and repeatedly warned him: after you die, it is best to recite sutras and worship Buddha, purify your mind, refrain from doing evil, and practice good deeds. The rat spirit kowtowed repeatedly: Your Majesty, I have kept your words in mind. If you have a human body, if you disobey, you will not die a good death.
Suddenly, the rat spirit raised his head again: Your Majesty, can you tell me which treasure land I will be reincarnated into, and whether I will be born in the body of a man or a daughter? The Wheel-turning King frowned and asked no more questions. Then it was said that the servants of the temple sent the rat spirit to Meng Po God to get the Jiwang soup to drink, so as not to remember the trivial matters of the previous life after reincarnation and hinder the reincarnation again.
The rat spirit drank a cup of Jiwangtang in front of the Jiwangtai. He suddenly felt like vomiting but could not. He felt unwell all over. He also obviously felt that he had lost the ability to create nightmares for all living beings. He also completely forgot all the things he had remembered before. There was a blank inside.
In an instant, the rat spirit had arrived at a family named Liu in the suburbs of Linxiang, Hunan. Of course, it is no longer a rat spirit, but a reincarnated soul. It came late at night, and God Meng Po gave it a talisman, otherwise it would not be able to enter any house, because every house is guarded by a door god. Generally, The Langgami Wild Ghost is difficult to enter. When it came to the door of this house, the door god noticed it, held an ax in his hand, put it at the door and asked: Where did this ghost come from? The door god had a ferocious face and suddenly became kind. Why is this? That was because the amulet carried by the soul transformed from the rat spirit shot out a ray of light, which dazzled the eyes of the door god. The door god understood, put down the ax in his hand and greeted him, knowing that this reincarnated soul was the future descendant of the Liu family. neglect.
The family surnamed Liu lives in a single-door house in Neishan Village. They have a tile-roofed house divided into eight rooms. Three sides face the mountain and one side faces the fan. In the distance is the smoky ditch. The most eye-catching thing around the Liu family is the mountain of bamboos that surround the back of their house. They are tall and green. It is not only a beautiful natural scenery, but also a cultural goods market for trade. The family surnamed Liu has been a bamboo worker for generations, and they are all operators of bamboo fiber products.
Of course, he is also involved in farming and mulberry. His main source of income is from the sale of bamboo strips. He is quite happy in this aspect. However, the head of the household, Craftsman Liu, has a heart problem that makes him very troubled. His father, Liu Shaoguan, died not long ago. He made a will before his death, hoping that he would have a child. The one with a handle is to inherit Liu's incense. Craftsman Liu nodded with tears in his eyes, and then Young Officer Liu was willing to lose his temper. What makes Craftsman Liu unhappy is that he and his wife Ma Daoying have a child every one or two years. They have given birth to seven children, but they are all embroidered, but none of them have long handles.
People in the mountain outside the house talked privately: The Liu family stopped the fireworks because they did not do good deeds. This saying has its origin. In the early years, Liu Shaoguan and his wife Hu had a son and seven daughters, and they always hoped to have one more boy, but It has never been possible. Later, I picked up an abandoned baby from other places and raised it until he was seven or eight years old. This baby had dysentery all over his head. He was probably a little itchy. When he scratched, white flakes like molted skin fell off, and there was a fishy smell. When he was sent to school in Xiangxu, other children refused to play with him and even spat in disdain when they saw him. The naughty children hated him and even hit him with clay and rubbish. Sometimes, his head was hit by diarrhea, and he burst into tears, with snot and tears staining his sleeves. He complained to his husband, who felt disgusted when he looked at him. In addition, other children made strong excuses, so he was noncommittal and sometimes went in and out. Conscience, symbolically reprimanding naughty children, but this does not help, and the poor person will inevitably be bullied. Especially on the way home from school, he was always frightened. When other children saw him like this, they would make up songs to make fun of him - It's a case of diarrhea, poke it with a shoulder pole, it bleeds, I have medicine. What medicine? Herbal medicine, hemp sticks, chicken shit paste for the head.
In this way, the poor man was afraid of going to school, so Liu Shaoguan gave up and asked him to herd cattle every day. One time, the cow was lost and could not be found, so Liu Shaoguan beat the cow to death with a wooden stick until it fainted, causing consumptive wounds. The child was not heartbroken, but he was suffering from dysentery, and he did not ask the doctor to see him. As a result, on a sunny afternoon, the dysentery man, who had been ill for a month and four days, died. Liu Shaoguan did not shed a tear. Instead, he felt relieved as if a burden had been thrown away. He asked someone to use a few boards to make a wooden box, put the body of the plague patient in it, and carried it to a building covered with masson pine behind the house. A hole was dug in the mountain and buried.
