The Witch of Xiangxi

Chapter 59
If it leaves this section of the road, then it won't be able to harm Xia Xiangxi. The dead ghost didn't want to let the dead ghost he finally met escape, so he chased after him frantically. It was unbalanced under its feet as if it was tripping, and it was stuck on the ground. When it got up from the ground, it saw a stone tablet in the middle of the mountain road for some reason.The dead ghost is puzzled, it is quite familiar with this area, and it doesn't remember such a stone tablet on this road, it was only curious, and forgot to chase Xia Xiangxi, and when it bent down to have a look, there was still a stone tablet on the stone tablet. There were a few large characters "Mountain God's Position" engraved on it, and the dead ghost suddenly realized that it was not good, so he ran back. The stone tablet seemed to have grown wings, flew up, and flew to the top of its head, and it looked up. At that time, the stone tablet fell towards it with a "bang", hitting it hard.

For these, Xia Xiangxi didn't know at all at this time, she took out the energy of sprinting [-] meters, and ran wildly how far, until she couldn't run anymore, and then stopped panting, only then did she realize that the dead ghost was not Did not find it.

When she finally returned to the village without dying, she told her grandpa about it when she saw her grandpa, but grandpa didn't look surprised at all, so he just said to her, "Wash your hands quickly, eat some Come back so late, you must be hungry!"

Xia Xiangxi was indeed both thirsty and hungry. After her grandfather said that, she stopped talking about it and went to find something to eat on her own.It wasn't until after his grandfather passed away that Xia Xiangxi heard Ma Po talk about this incident.It turned out that Xia Xiangxi was safe when he fell down the valley because he had the help of the mountain god.After she fell to the bottom of the valley, the dwarf in green clothes and cloak she saw was the mountain god.Later, she was able to get rid of the vain ghost and escape smoothly because of the help of the mountain god, who turned into a stone tablet and suppressed the vain ghost.

In order to ask the mountain god to help save Xia Xiangxi, Grandpa also made a deal with it, at the price of agreeing to a condition proposed by the mountain god.Grandpa was also greatly affected after his death due to this price, but this is all a later matter, so I won't mention it for the time being.

At this time, Xia Xiangxi was only thankful that she had escaped a catastrophe, and vowed to learn witchcraft well, otherwise she would not only lose face when she met such a brat again and stumble. Lost the face of grandpa and mother-in-law.

On the other side, Ma Po secretly thanked the mountain god with her grandfather, and thanked him for saving Xia Xiangxi from the catastrophe. You must know that if Xia Xiangxi becomes a dead ghost, the consequence will not be to become a dead ghost, but to become a dead ghost. become……

Xia Xiangxi doesn't know what grandpa and Ma Po are thinking at this time

I escaped a catastrophe, but because of this, I missed the ghost who died in vain.She was murdered once, but luckily escaped, if another innocent person was killed by the dead ghost, then this vicious circle will end at some point.

Xia Xiangxi told his grandpa what he was thinking, and grandpa nodded in agreement.It's been a while since I've caught a ghost, and my hands are very itchy.

Ma Po rolled her eyelids at Grandpa, and there was a smile in her eyes, but she didn't know what she was laughing at?
Ma Po's hands are always indispensable to exorcise ghosts like glutinous rice.This can be regarded as the difference between witchcraft and alchemy!

Grandpa said: "Glutinous rice can not only ward off evil spirits but also detoxify corpses. In addition, if ghosts want to pass through a rice field, they must count all the rice in the rice field before they can pass." As for why, grandpa said that the ancients said so. I also thought about asking to understand, but the ancients are dead, and he couldn't find anyone if he wanted to ask!

Xia Xiangxi burst out laughing, feeling that Grandpa was telling a bad joke.However, glutinous rice is really a blind medicine for detoxification, she really knows this.

There was still no moon in this night, and the sky was full of stars, just like people's eyes looking at the people on the ground with strange eyes.

Xia Xiangxi originally wanted to use a flashlight to illuminate, but his grandfather said, "No need for that. Just use a torch!"

The use of torches actually makes sense, ghosts are afraid of fire but not light.On the contrary, the moonland is the most haunted time.Xia Xiangxi heard from his grandfather that there is a saying in Feng Shui called "the moon does not enter the house". No matter it is a yin house or a yang house, moonlight should not shine.If the yin house is illuminated by the moonlight, it is easy to cause fraudulent corpses, while the yang house enters the moon, it will lose the yang, and it is easy to make the head of the house fall ill. Therefore, there is a saying in Feng Shui that the bed should not be near the window. The purpose is to avoid the moonlight shining on the bed and damaging the yang energy .

One tung oil torch made by Ma Po can burn for a long time. Grandpa was afraid that one would not be enough, so he asked to bring a few more just in case.

At eight or nine o'clock in the evening, it is the time when the moisture in the mountains rises and dew comes out. There is a lot of grass on the mountain road, and after walking for a long time, the trousers of the three of them are wet with dew, and they stick to the trousers coldly, scratching like ice skates. Touch the skin on the calf.

With grandpa and mother-in-law around, it would not be a problem to catch that dead ghost.When Xia Xiangxi led her grandfather and Ma Po to the place where she met the dead ghost, Grandpa didn't need to do anything, Ma Po said she could do it by herself.

Ghosts are not fools.It can also detect well-behaved people like Ma Po and Grandpa.This time, I didn't dare to come out in exchange for life and death.

Xia Xiangxi immediately became worried, thinking that this evening was a waste of time.

Grandpa chuckled, stroked his sparse beard, and said, just watch!See how Ma Po lures the ghost out.

Ma Po grabbed the rice from the rice bag and sprinkled handfuls of it. After sprinkling a few handfuls, she put down the basket on her arm and lifted the red cloth covering it, revealing a jar of rice wine and a bowl of rice wine. Braised pork, and a few small snacks.Xia Xiangxi helped Ma Po put these things on a flat stone.Ma Po lit the three sticks of incense again, bowed to the offerings on the stone, muttering something, and waited for her to finish.She took out a pile of paper money, and took out a few sheets of white paper, and handed them to Xia Xiangxi, asking her to wait with a pen and paper, and when she asked her to write, she would write as she said.

In addition, I told Xia Xiangxi that burning paper money also needs to pay attention to some skills. When the paper money is stacked together, it is difficult to burn through the middle, but you can't fiddle with the paper money at will just to light the middle part, because the paper ash will be broken. The money received by the ghosts in the underworld will be incomplete, and the paper money will look the same as if it hadn't been burned.

Xia Xiangxi nodded and wrote it down.

Grandpa randomly grabbed a few handfuls of weeds on the side of the road, then simply tied up a human figure, and then pasted a spell on it, asking Xia Xiangxi to breathe three times at the grass figure.Grandpa recited the spell again, and when he handed it over to Xia Xiangxi again, he told her to put the straw man next to her chest, so that those lonely and wild ghosts would not easily hook Xia Xiangxi's soul away.

Grandpa often used a piece of white cloth as a belt, and tied a piece of wood he brought around his waist, saying that it was also to prevent ghosts from sneaking attacks.Because it was not a simple piece of wood, but grandpa took it down from a front door.Ghosts dare not go through the main entrance.You can pass through walls and gutters, but you can't walk through the main entrance, because the main entrance is guarded by door gods.It is also learned to take the door panel, it must be the door panel on the main gate of the old house, and it is not allowed to replace other doors.

Ma Po didn't take any precautions.Xia Xiangxi was still worried at first, but his grandfather said, "This old woman is a person who can live in the shadows, and she is very familiar with ghosts. Ordinary ghosts would not dare to touch her!"

Xia Xiangxi nodded and felt relieved.

Ma Po has been worshiping in front of the stone where offerings are placed.

It didn't take long before Xia Xiangxi smelled a heavy ghost aura. It wasn't one kind of ghost aura. Dead fish were mixed together.

Ma Po called Xia Xiangxi and listened to the name she read, and wrote on the white paper, and burned it together with a wad of paper money wrapped in the white paper.

Xia Xiangxi kept in mind what Ma Po said just now. When burning paper money, first light the paper bag from the bottom with a torch, then slowly put it on the ground, and wait patiently for it to burn out.

When the pile of paper money was burned out, Xia Xiangxi straightened up and saw a short and skinny old man greedily looking at the paper money that was about to be burned. Xia Xiangxi was used to seeing ghosts, and it was because of this ghost that suddenly appeared , startled.But she kept in mind what her grandfather said, not to be afraid, and not to be distracted, not to give those ghosts a chance to hook her soul.

That skinny ghost, when the paper money was completely burned, he quickly picked up the money ashes from the ground, and when he picked up the ball of money ashes from the ground, the money ashes were no longer money ashes, but real ghosts. currency.Holding Mingbi in his arms, the skinny ghost ran away quickly.
