The sword-making Taoist stroked his beard again and then said slowly to us: "In 1950, the state re-measured the land so that the landlords' land could be divided up and redistributed. However, the progress in Gansu was relatively slow. It took one or two years to reform. Go there. During the reform period, one of the largest landowners in the area, whose surname was Pan, was tortured every day when dividing his land among the local tyrants. He was tortured to death. Those who were tortured all day long were either pulled out to be criticized or taken to the square to strip off their clothes and expose them to the sun. In the end, he couldn't bear it anymore and committed suicide. The landowner named Pan had a daughter named Pan Chen. She was as tall as a flower and as beautiful as a fairy. Before his father was criticized, his family was very wealthy. , I sent her to study in a big city. She is not only educated, but also very elegant. She is a typical young lady from a rich family, full of wealth, grace and grace."
The sword-making Taoist took another cup of tea for himself and said while drinking: "At that time, there was a troop stationed in Gansu. Their mission was to cooperate with the rectification of the local tyrants and evil gentry. There was a regiment leader named Tian Dong. My father once I followed Captain Tian Dong in the battles in the north and south, and served in front of and behind the scenes. During the battle, I made great contributions. My father later suffered a recurrence of his old injury, and seeing that time was running out, he wrote to me from my hometown. He called me over and asked me to continue to work with Captain Tian Dong to make contributions so that I could stand out. Although I didn’t want to join the army, I knew that as long as I followed the right person, I would have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of my life, so I agreed and stayed in the army. He joined Captain Tian Dong as an entourage. Well, rich families often have prodigal sons, and the same is true for Captain Tian Dong’s only son..."
Having said this, the swordsmith Taoist didn't want to talk any more and sat in a chair in a daze. If Geng Biaobiao hadn't urged him to speak quickly, the old guy would still be unwilling to speak. After talking about the good and the bad, the sword-smithing talent continued: "Tian Daqing, the only son of Captain Tian Dong, fell in love with the daughter of a landlord when he was with the army in Gansu. Pan Chen, because his father was the leader and had the power, insisted on occupying Pan Chen. However, Pan Chen had already had her heart set on something, and her lover was Li Jiadong, a handsome boy with whom she had been childhood sweethearts, so she Turning a deaf ear to Tian Daqing's pursuit, he refused to give up Li Jiadong and go with Tian Daqing. This man named Tian Daqing had a really bad heart. He took advantage of his father's relationship and found an excuse to label Li Jiadong as a rich farmer. He was forced into the ranks of the crackdown. You must know that at that time, only the poor and lower-middle peasants were not punished. I won’t say how miserable Li Jiadong’s fate was. In short, it was very miserable. Wait until he is discovered. By that time, the body had long since cooled down, and no one dared to collect the body after it was exposed in the wilderness for more than ten days."
Geng Biaobiao asked: "What happened next?"
"Later, Li Jiadong's only living relative was his 60-year-old mother. She couldn't bear the blow of Li Jiadong's death, so she went crazy and her health deteriorated day by day. Pan Chen also died soon after he hated Tian Daqing. She went to Tian Daqing to argue and threatened to avenge Li Jiadong, but how could she defeat Tian Daqing? Tian Daqing, a beast, led a few soldiers and ruffians to ruin the beautiful Pan Chen, and then did not care about Pan Chen's life or death. , Pan Chen also lost all hope and committed suicide by taking poison."
I couldn't listen anymore. I was really resentful about the difference between a second-generation soldier like Tian Daqing and a gangster. I asked directly: "Tian Dong has such a son who is worse than a beast. Doesn't he know how to take care of it? These are three lives. Just let him be fucked like this?"
"Of course not. Tian Daqing is not a human being, but his father, Tian Dong, is still a very upright and good soldier. Commander Tian Dong crawled out from the dead. He has been through all kinds of storms, from the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains War, and then to the Anti-Japanese War. He participated in the war of liberation and liberation, so no one has a clearer view of life than him. He knows the importance of human life and the preciousness of life. He is really a good soldier. After learning about his unsatisfactory son, he During the act, he immediately asked someone to pull Tian Daqing in front of him, and put a pistol on Tian Daqing's head. Just when he was about to shoot Tian Daqing, his wife came forward and begged Tian Dong to let Tian Daqing go, repeatedly stressing that , with such a son, Tian Dong softened his heart and did not shoot Tian Daqing."
"Tian Dong did not kill Tian Daqing, but he still couldn't bear the condemnation of his conscience, so he found a famous local Feng Shui master, found an acupuncture point with good Feng Shui, and buried the bodies of Pan Chen and Li Jiadong together. However, This Feng Shui treasure is not an acupuncture point that nourishes descendants, but a polar acupuncture point that prevents transformation, so that the souls of the dead will not turn into ghosts. Tian Dong talked a lot with the Feng Shui master and learned a lot. Mr. Feng Shui also told Tian Dong many bizarre things he had seen. After repeated exchanges, Captain Tian Dong believed what Mr. Feng Shui said. Because Pan Chen and Li Jiadong died unjustly, the grudges will be deep and deep. Resentments will naturally aggravate, and if you don't give up properly, you will most likely be turned into a ghost to take revenge after death. When the soul of the victim really turns into an evil spirit, it will hurt innocent people afterwards and cause uproar in the city."
"But, this matter is disgraceful after all, so Captain Tian Dong ordered me to set off with Mr. Feng Shui, and once again came to the tomb where Pan Chen and Li Jiadong were buried together. Just in case, the Feng Shui Mr. asked Together with him, I set up an array at the place where the deceased was buried, which is the Tianlan Qikong Formation. At that time, this place will become a place to eliminate evil spirits. Even if Pan Chen and Li Jiadong really become ghosts after their death, they can rely on the elimination of evil spirits. The soil of the earth disperses their anger.”
Su Fengfeng also let out a long sigh after hearing this, and said: "I guess senior, you were also disappointed with Tian Dong because of this incident. Therefore, you did not return to the army later, but traveled around on your own. Found a free Taoist who is scattered in the world."
The sword-making Taoist nodded and said, "Yes, on the third day after we finished setting up the Tianlan Qikong Formation, the Feng Shui master took me to the tomb to check again. Who knew that the Tianlan Qikong Formation had no effect at all? Well, the grievances of the two dead people in the cemetery were so heavy that even the place to eliminate evil could not resolve their grievances. However, Pan Chen had a strong character during his lifetime, and it was natural for him to turn into a ghost after death. That Feng Shui The teacher counted with his fingers and found that this acupuncture point not only did not suppress the resentment of Pan Chen and Li Jiadong, but also promoted the fusion of their souls. It is what Taoism says about ghosts becoming more evil than ghosts. Feng Shui Mr. If you dare to stay any longer, you advise me to run away and not come back to Tian Dong again, because the hatred between these two ghosts will definitely make Tian Dong’s family never have peace, and even all animals and descendants will be wiped out. So I listened. In his words, he was born into Taoism and finally became a Taoist who specializes in making swords."
Speaking of this, the swordsmith Taoist burst into tears and continued: "Well, it's a pity that Captain Tian Dong's one thought brought disaster to his whole family. Later, within a few years, I learned about Tian Dong's whole family. The news of the death was in line with the Feng Shui master's guess at the time. The whole family was dead, and their thoughts were miserable. Even the cats and dogs in the family were born and none of them survived."
The sword-making Taoist drank the last sip of tea and sighed: "Fifty years have passed. I was only sixteen when I was with Captain Tian Dong. I was seventeen when I left him. Now I am almost seventy. I thought I am going to die of old age. Who knows? I am already so old. I accidentally discovered Pan Chen's coffin when I was studying Feng Shui. This evil ghost appeared again. I never expected that it would treat me as an accomplice. If you want to hunt me down, I can only come here and set up the Tianlan Qikong Formation to protect myself. I am unable to eradicate evil ghosts. I don’t know how to catch ghosts. Ghosts with strong resentments will not have any Compassion will only harm people for no reason. Fortunately, you showed up and took in this evil ghost. It is a cycle of nature and retribution is not good!"
After saying that, we walked outside with him, pacing repeatedly in a corner of the hospital.
Unexpectedly, this evil spirit that can control people's minds turned out to be a pair of star-crossed lovers with such miserable life experiences. They could have lived an enviable life, but they were disrupted by bullies. There are really some people who seek their own death. They brew bitter wine and not only drink it themselves, but also harm other innocent people. However, where there is a cause, there is an effect. The seeds of disaster planted by Tian Daqing have produced evil fruits haunted by evil spirits, so we must eat them. No one can escape this cycle of cause and effect.
