the last priest

There is a barefoot doctor in the village who has no special education in medicine, but he runs a small clinic by himself, and everyone in the village who has headaches and brain fever goes to him.

The doctor came over to take a look, firstly he was not breathing, secondly his heart was not beating, his pupils began to dilate, and he announced on the spot that the woman had passed away.Following Ah Fa's nieces' howls, his son's head hit the cement on the ground like a drum.

The people outside suddenly became chaotic, no one was there at the moment, and only the elders in the family, Ah Fa's eldest brother, could make the decision.He was also suffering in his heart and couldn't tell, the woman was knocked unconscious by the Taoist for some reason, and then died.But Zha Wenbin's name was already a demigod in the local area at that time, so he didn't dare to talk too much, and together with his brothers and sisters, seeing that Afa's mother-in-law had passed away, he should follow the village rules.

Three firecrackers were launched one by one, and soon, all the men, women and children in the village flocked to the school. It is said that this person should be placed in his home after his death, but everyone knows that the house is not clean these days, and there is no Some people dared to go, so after discussing it, it was still placed in this old school. The place is large and spacious.

Setting off firecrackers after death is a custom that has been handed down very early.One is to inform other people in the village that someone in this family has passed away, so they have to come and have a look. The white wedding event in the countryside usually requires the help of the whole village, even if there is a great hatred between the host and the family on weekdays. I have to put down my shelf for a while.The men will be responsible for physical work, such as setting up the altar, setting up the tent, and their own tables, chairs and benches will also be carried over spontaneously at this moment.The women would bring some vegetables and fruits from their own vegetable gardens, because the family who passed away had to have a lot of people to eat that night, and there was no time to prepare, so everyone had to gather together.

Rural people pay attention to mutual help and unity, the dead are the greatest, and no matter how important things are, they have to let go.Because most people will park at home for three days after death for relatives to commemorate, so this meal is usually chosen in the yard, which requires a tent that can accommodate six large tables with thicker canvas paper.

People from all walks of life who were preparing to report also received their respective addresses that needed to be notified, and they were going to go far away to notify relatives of Ah Fa's family to come to the funeral.There are still a few people who have been up the mountain, under the leadership of Abba, they are going to call Cha Wenbin back, after all, they are all dead.

The people on the mountain naturally heard the sound of the firecrackers. When they saw the direction, the approximate location was in that area, and they were wondering which family had passed away.According to common sense, they were going down the mountain at this moment, but Zha Wenbin and the others were down there again, and they were in a dilemma, and they didn't know what to do.

"Brother Wenbin, it seems that someone in the village has passed away." Chaozi said to Zha Wenbin when he heard the sound of firecrackers.

Cha Wenbin pointed to the paper figurine and said, "That's her."

"Her? That paper figurine?" Chaozi was a little puzzled. He never understood why Cha Wenbin came in with such a thing.

Cha Wenbin said lightly: "Ah Fa's mother-in-law is dead, but she is not really dead. Now that mother-in-law's soul is on this paper figurine. I have to use her as a bait. If I bring her up, I only have seven I can take her back with [-]% confidence, but if it is this paper doll, I am [-]% sure. Shhh, don't make noise, you all stand back."

After confirming that this is a pair of wronged souls of a man and a woman, Cha Wenbin decided to simply pair them up. There are many uncontrollable factors for living people, but the paper figurines will be more obedient.Wronged souls can only perceive living things. To be precise, they can only see things with souls. In the past, a kind of invisibility technique in Maoshan technique was to close one's seven orifices to prevent oneself from revealing a trace of life. To avoid the perception of those dirty things.

He took out three talisman papers and gave them to them. He simply squatted in front of the paper figurine and said, "It's best to cover your nose, don't vent your anger. Before the talisman papers burn, you just need to stay still."

Although paper figurines can also be possessed, the duration is not long because paper figurines have no soul.The soul is the basis for determining the physical operation of a person. Without the soul, the soul will think that it is a dead body and leave in the end.Even if Cha Wenbin used Taoism, the support time would not exceed half an hour.

In fact, he didn't know much about it in his heart. First, he really couldn't tell how deep the hole was, and second, he always felt that this matter was a little strange.

Five small flags were planted on the ground, each with a different color, symbolizing the power of the five elements.Ever since Qifeng Mountain saw the eternal formation, it seems that Zha Wenbin's use of the five elements of heaven and earth has reached a new level.These five elements are all the elements that make up the entire world, and he can only glimpse a corner of the energy contained in it.

Although the paper figurine can't speak or move, it does have a woman's soul at the moment. For dirty things, if you want to find a scapegoat, it doesn't matter whether she can move. It's better if she can't move.Many people died unknowingly in their sleep. In fact, they were seduced by little ghosts like this.

Cha Wenbin stared at the compass in his hand all the time, and when the pointer started to shake slightly, he knew that the Lord was finally coming.

As mentioned earlier, ghosts are formed by obsession after death, but they do not have a physical form.Some people with special conditions can see. Such people are called having yin and yang eyes.With the help of some props, it can also be seen, such as the cow's tears that Cha Wenbin often uses, and there is another kind that is when one's own flame is extremely low. At that time, people's aura is weak, and it is most likely to see ghosts.

A blurry group of figures began to approach from the inside out, and the pointer of the compass trembled more and more.The five small flags on the ground were drooping, but at this moment they all floated up as if a strong wind had blown them, and the flags also slowly adjusted their orientation following the pointer of the compass.

There was a "boom", when the oil lamp in front of the paper man began to light up again, even Chaozi and the others saw this scene.

That paper figurine, bought for ten yuan from the funeral parlor in the town, is now "alive".

What they saw was the slightly rough and evil paper figurine drawn on white paper and colored, sitting up on the spot.Because it is paper paste, the paper on the back has been completely torn due to the bending.The "squeak" sound of the cracked paper, like claws scratching the heart, makes people shudder.

The corners of Zha Wenbin's mouth slightly curled up, telling you to run once, you won't be allowed to run a second time.I saw that he was holding a black thread that was almost imperceptible in the dark, only the thickness of an embroidery needle. Looking carefully, it turned out to be the ink fountain used by the carpenter.

Legend has it that this ink fountain was invented by Lu Ban, and it has the ability to restrain innocent souls. For Taoists, this thing is like the fairy-binding rope recorded in novels.

If the paper figurine got up a little more, it would be completely broken from the waist.Seeing that the time had come, Zha Wenbin flicked his wrist, and the ball of ink fountain thread retracted, tightly binding the paper figurine.

Next, a scene that is more memorable to Chaozi happened.The paper man's mouth was originally painted with red paint, but now it splits up and down, as if a person's mouth was opened, and he could clearly hear the sound coming from the paper man's mouth. A snarl of anger.

The wolf cave ghost cry that people often say is about this kind of sound. It gives people the feeling of a person without vocal cords, the hissing and exhausted moan coming from the abdominal cavity, which is very penetrating and hits directly into the body. people's hearts.

Zha Wenbin held the thread in one hand, and the sword in the other quickly cut off the red thread tied to the hand of the paper figurine. The copper coin originally worn on the red thread quickly fell to the ground, but was picked up by him skillfully with the sword and bounced upwards. When he fell again, the gossip bag he was carrying on his body had already opened the gap and fell into the bag impartially.

This copper coin is determined not to fall to the ground. If the money falls to the ground, the head will not be guaranteed. If it is not caught, Ah Fa's wife will really die.

Quickly circling the paper figurine, layer after layer of ink fountain thread entangled the paper figurine like a rice dumpling.Although it looks a bit embarrassing, these threads are all wrapped in a specific way. Those who know the way will know that the threads have already wrapped the seven orifices of the paper figurine.After all the threads were wrapped, Cha Wenbin threw out the ink fountain in his hand and shouted: "Chaozi, connect it!"

With a black parabola, Chaozi immediately reacted, rolled on the spot, with an unknown amount of bat droppings on his body, then held it firmly in his hand, and cursed: "You know how to trick me!"

As soon as Chaozi took the ink fountain, he found that the ink fountain box in his hand was shaking very badly at the moment, and then he saw that it was the black thread that went out that kept jumping. . . . . .
