I am an immortal in heaven and earth

Chapter 19: Replacing fate and calamity (please read, chapter comments, and monthly votes)

While waiting for the trial of life and death, Xiaohong clearly realized that the hen tied to the bedside was no longer struggling...

She became more and more frightened.

I wonder if this ghost will kill himself after killing the chicken.

The chicken no longer fluttered, but a hemp rope had already hung it on the beam.

And in the gaze of the hanged man, a maid who was half frightened to death was lying beside the bed, shouting: "Don't come over!"

The dying fire is not much more angry than a chicken...it is a good target to attack.

Above the beam, a bloody hemp rope hung down from unknown time.

The frightened maid walked toward it step by step uncontrollably.

Take the initiative to put the hemp rope around your neck.

The hemp rope suddenly stretched straight, the top was hidden above the dark beam, and the bottom was tightly wrapped around Xiao Hong's neck.

Her limbs began to twitch, her eyes widened, and her face was distorted by suffocation. Her hands feebly grasped the hemp rope that tightened her throat, leaving only deep nail marks.

My feet were pedaling and struggling in mid-air, and the noose was getting tighter and tighter...

In the process of hanging, watching the life disappear and constantly struggling and fluttering, this hanging person is indescribably satisfied.

It's just...why is the resentment generated by hanging and killing the girl so weak? Not adding any strength to yourself?

Seeing that he didn't gain much, the evil ghost glanced at the women who were still snoring after making such a big fuss with disgust.

The evil spirit left the room... and did not continue to choose to kill people. Although he could also scare people into dreams, that would consume too much of his evil energy.

When someone discovers that someone has been hanged tomorrow, the entire Xu family will fall into panic, and he will be better able to take action then.

In a terrifying atmosphere, his killing ability will also increase.

The evil ghost planned to leave first, wait for things to ferment, and then kill another one every few days, but he couldn't find the "door" through which he came in.

Then another whirlpool of dark wind roared in the yard, smashing countless things...

This ghost is getting more and more anxious... He was fine when he came, but why was there no door when he left?

Not to mention the door, even if you want to go through the courtyard wall. So he was so anxious that he kept wandering around the yard, and even wanted to take back the room, scare people awake, and control them to take him out.

Finally, he heard the sound of a rooster crowing outside, and the evil spirit was frightened.

It's going to be daybreak, so I have to find a place to hide.

The evil ghost panicked and hid in the well. The well is deep and open to the cold earth, so it is difficult to be discovered without light.

After daylight, Xu's father and Xu's mother looked at the mess in the courtyard, their faces gloomy and thoughtful.

The ladies and servants in the whole yard looked at each other in confusion: "There was a strong evil wind last night."

After Xu Jia woke up, he took his time, chewed the clove wood, and rinsed his mouth with tea.

He asked casually: "Why didn't Xiaohong come?"

The waiter was a woman, and Xu Jia felt a little dissatisfied with her for not being meticulous enough.

"This……"

The mother-in-law has some taboos.

Xiaohong tied a hen to the foot of the bed yesterday, but when she woke up in the morning, she fell ill, had a fever and sweated, and the tied hen was hanging from the beam, dead. "I know even if you don't tell me, I'm probably in trouble."

He drank a bowl of porridge and put a piece of ginseng under his tongue.

Xu Jia went out of the room and saw Mr. Xu comforting people: "This house needs to be repaired carefully. When the wind blows, many tiles fall down."

Not to mention the weirdness of those nights.

Niu Congcong also had dark circles under his eyes, but stared at Xu Jia with bright eyes. It clearly means asking.

Xu Jia said: "Mom, dad, take your time with the repairs. Why don't you go first to get rid of the bad luck? Do a general cleaning first. Move all the places that are not exposed to light, move them, dry them, and remove the dust."

Master Xu understood Xu Jia's hint and nodded: "It's about getting rid of obscurity, not only to get rid of obscurity, but also to bring happiness!"

Xu Jia: When was this decided? Why didn't I know?

"I plan to arrange a marriage for you. Of course, you haven't passed the examination yet, so you will take a concubine first, and then get a wife..."

"Here……"

Mrs. Xu sighed: "My son, we are old, and you have experienced such a thing. Mom knows that you are not in good health, so she doesn't necessarily want to get married so early. But if more people take care of you, Mom will feel relieved... Today I'm just about to go out and find Matchmaker Zhang to find you a good match."

"Wait a minute!" Xu Jia said quickly: "I haven't gone out yet, and I haven't clarified why I died and came back to life. Besides, parents, I feel that my previous death was a bit strange, and someone wanted to harm me... …”

Xu Jia asked again: "Mom, dad, did any strange people come during my illness?"

Xu Jia took the initiative and stared into the eyes of the two men with burning eyes.

Xu Jia's eyesight was strong, and the two old men felt guilty when they saw him: "What kind of strange people could there be... Don't think too much, but what you said makes sense. We have to wait until you feel better before we can talk about marriage. You can't rush... "

Father Xu turned around and ordered the servants: "The young master said that we need to clean it up. Did you hear it? You can't be lazy and lazy, don't get caught by me..."

Seeing that Xu's father was hesitant and did not say anything about the Taoist, Xu Jia became suspicious. He turned to Niu Congcong and said, "Congcong, go back first, quickly secure the entrance to the hall, and enter the practice."

Niu Congcong nodded repeatedly, said goodbye to Xu's father and Xu's mother, and asked Sha Erzhu to carry him home.

The Xu family started cleaning from top to bottom.

The Xu family's house covers an area of ​​about two and a half acres, with a main house, courtyard, side rooms and walls. The pattern is a U-shape on the outside and an I-shape on the inside.

The back shape is based on the outer buildings of the high courtyard wall. The kitchen, tool room, firewood room, the lower wing where the mother-in-law lives, and the guest room where guests stay when guests come are all here.

The I-shaped place is the main room where you live behind the front hall, with a connection in the middle.

The front hall is a place for receiving guests, and the back room is where the owner lives and reads, and there is also a wing room for concubines.

The overall layout is symmetrical and neat, with primary and secondary distinctions, blue bricks and black tiles. There are basically no major problems in Feng Shui.

After all, the grandfather of the Xu family was in business at the time, and later donated eight-grade casual officials, leaving a hundred acres of fertile land. To be able to live in such a large house, he must have hired professional people to build and design it.

However, in thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, Feng Shui things are always changing, otherwise it would not have been passed down to three generations alone. Even the predecessor Xu Jia died, probably because of poor family luck.

Xu Jia directed people to clean, move the cabinets, change the position of the bed, and at the same time start calculating the Nine Palaces and Bagua.

After all, the structure of "Hui" plus "Gong" is suitable for the "Nine Palaces" method to determine Feng Shui.

The so-called Nine Palaces method is actually a tic-tac-toe grid divided into nine areas.

The servants and wives listened to Xu Jia's command and soon slightly changed the original pattern and changed the direction of "Xing Qi".
