Artisans in Tunli

Chapter 29
That day, I didn't lose my virginity, and Hu Tianhai spoke vernacular all night.I also know more and more about Jing Jing. She looks strong on the outside, but she has a fragile heart inside.

Her full name is Dong Wenjing, and she lives in Ma'anshan next to JMS.She also has an older brother, but he was born with polio, and the family was heavily in debt to treat him.

Jing Jing was very sensible when she was a child. Her parents went out to work, and her grandparents went to work in the paddy fields every day. She was responsible for the daily necessities of the family and took care of her brother.

Later, after she went to high school, she learned physical fitness. At that time, a provincial Sanda team came to recruit people, so she went to sign up.Because she heard that there were subsidies and the like, she started her fighting life from then on.

I touched her slightly deformed ears, feeling uncomfortable.But she has always been very optimistic, saying that she must win a national championship in the future, so that the family can live a good life.After speaking, he hugged my neck tightly and kissed me.

Just chatting like this, I don't know when I fell asleep, and I didn't wake up until Zhou Peng knocked on the door.

"How? Got it?" As soon as I walked into the living room, Zhou Peng couldn't wait to ask me in a low voice.

I gave him a blank look and said, "If you don't succeed, what's your business?"

"You boy, by the way, I'll pack all your luggage. We'll set off after both of them pack up later." Zhou Peng gulped Coke down his stomach.I went back into the quiet room to see if she was awake, but by chance I saw her changing clothes.

"Sorry, I forgot to knock on the door." I turned my head away, and she said it was okay, and then came over and put her arms around me and was about to kiss.

"Don't mind, I haven't brushed my teeth yet." After speaking, she looked at Jing Jing's body, which was only wearing underwear, and she could see that there were many bruises and scars still on it.

I asked her with a bit of distress: "Are you usually covered in scars like this?"

But she said disapprovingly: "I've been used to it for a long time, it's all like this." After she finished speaking, she kissed me on the face and turned to get dressed.I went over to help her fold her clothes, her scarred body still in my mind.

"Athletes and the like are like this. After retiring, they leave with a whole body of illness." She looked at me and said.

Anyway, it's her choice and I have no right to interfere.Just like I chose to learn Taoism, it is a responsibility we are willing to shoulder.

The weather is not very good today, it has been gloomy, and I believe it will rain soon.

Zhou Peng drove quickly on the Hartong Expressway. Although it was not very far, it would take five or six hours to drive.He said that his parents left first in the morning, let us drive slowly and not in a hurry.

I actually like Zhou Peng's parents quite a lot. They don't have the airs of a rich man, but they still have the aura of a rich man.Treat me like you treat your own family.

Jing Jing was wearing short-sleeved shorts. She told me that she hadn't worn such short shorts for a long time, because she was afraid that others would see the scars on her body.Along the way, we both chatted very happily, as if we met each other and hated it late.Although Sun Jing's shadow can be seen on her body from time to time, but thinking about it carefully, the only thing they have in common is that they are both alive and female.

When we arrived at the Heixiazi Island service area, it was already past five o'clock in the afternoon, and the hazy sky finally began to thunder, and heavy raindrops fell.

When Zhou Peng's father assigned me a room, he put me in the same room as Zhou Peng. Zhou Peng was still whispering to me about changing rooms at night, but I didn't listen carefully, and kept staring at him. Looking at a memorial tablet placed on the door of the hotel.

I have never seen this tablet before.There is a talisman drawn on the tablet, the head of the talisman of the Patriarch of the Three Qing Dynasty, but the talisman is very strange, and it is impossible to tell what type of talisman it is.

I asked the front desk and she said she didn't know.In fact, this kind of talisman is rarely seen in hotels, because there are not many people in the Northeast who study Taoism, and most people's beliefs are more inclined to Buddhism.

After dinner, Dad Zhou asked us to rest early and go for a walk in the Wetland Park tomorrow.But how can we, who are so young, fall asleep so early?
So Xiaoxiao suggested playing poker.After playing for a while, everyone agreed that my poker skills were really bad, so Zhou Peng said it would be better to tell ghost stories.Jingjing seemed a little repelled by telling ghost stories and moved closer to me.

Xiaoxiao was the kind of girl who had no inhibitions, so she directly told the ghost story about Heixiazi Island.To be honest, I suspect she changed the location of the story here to create an atmosphere.

"It was the year before the eve of the year." Before she could finish her sentence, there was a clap of thunder outside the window.Scared the four of us to death, the weather is quite cooperative.

"Just the year before last, a family of three came here for a trip. I don't know if they stayed in this hotel. Anyway, it's a hotel here. One day, when they went to the Wetland Park to play, they saw a tree It is tied with a red cloth, which is very common here, but there is a memorial tablet under the tree tied with the red cloth." She paused and lowered her voice.

"It's the same as the tablet placed on the gate when we came in. There are some talismans drawn on it. By the way, it seems that every room here has a talisman." After finishing the novel, he got out of bed and walked to the door, pointing The yellow talisman on it.I accidentally touched it and it fell off.

I said to myself, this is not a good sign.I hurried over to pick it up, and posted it again.Xiao Xiao was taken aback for a moment, and said why I was so superstitious, then returned to the bed and continued talking seriously.I saw that Jing Jing's expression was full of fear, so I walked over and hugged her.

"Later, the child became curious, so he put the memorial tablet in his schoolbag and took it back to the hotel. As a result, that night, the child dreamed of a RB soldier standing in front of his window with a samurai sword. He told his parents about it, and of course his parents didn't believe it, so they didn't let his son think about it. But at night, he dreamed of the RB soldier again, but instead of standing in front of his window, he went into the house. Just stand upright in front of him." After speaking, Xiao Xiao exaggeratedly made a posses.

I have a little admiration for her ability to tell stories, not to mention her voice and emotion, and all kinds of body language that are just right.

"It's over. On the third day, he still said that he dreamed of a RB soldier standing in front of his bed last night. His parents said that he was full of random thoughts every day, and he didn't want to study at a young age. But at night Guess what?" She said with a smirk on her face.

"Hurry up and tell me, it's too boring." Zhou Peng didn't seem to care much about the story, and I saw him staring wretchedly at his small plump breasts several times.

Xiaoxiao was very dissatisfied with Zhou Peng's attitude, so she reached out her hand to cover Zhou Peng's wretched eyes, and continued:
"At night, the child dreamed of the RB soldier again, holding the unsheathed samurai sword in his hand, and raised it high. So he took out the tablet from his school bag by mistake. When the RB soldier saw the tablet, he seemed to be He was very scared, so he took a few steps back. Then he turned his head and looked at his parents who were sleeping. The RB soldier walked towards them, raised his knife and slashed, and the little boy woke up in fright. .” After finishing speaking, he cleared his throat.

I hurriedly asked: "And then? Can you finish talking quickly?"

"Hey, please don't interrupt, please. When he woke up, he looked at his parents immediately, and the result was that his parents were really lying there covered in blood and had expired."

After listening to this story, I don't think it's really scary, it may be that I have experienced more exaggerated things.

"Later, the child was sent away, and I heard that he is still in a mental hospital." Xiao Xiao didn't seem to feel scared, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

However, everyone still gave her warm applause in recognition of her narrative ability.

Even so, when I saw the tablet on the door, I always felt it was a bit evil.Even though it is a Sanqing symbol, it always looks a bit awkward, and an ominous feeling lingers in my heart.

Zhou Peng didn't want to hear any ghost stories at all, so he just said it casually, but Xiaoxiao wanted to continue telling it.He stood up impatiently, and dragged Xiao Xiao back to the room.

I turned to look at Jingjing, who was sitting there thoughtfully.I asked twice what was wrong, and she finally came to her senses and said that she remembered that there had been a supernatural incident involving RB Japs in the village when she was a child, and that she only remembered it after hearing about it in a novel.

When I asked her what was going on, she simply said that she was quite young at that time and couldn't remember clearly.I didn't ask any more questions, I made the bed and lay down, and she came over and started kissing me.If she is not at the age of a wolf or a tiger, why would she come to nibble on me whenever she finds an opportunity?
Of course, after just kissing for a while, I fell asleep.

At night I had a strange dream, it wasn't the dream of the RB soldiers, but I was standing in a wetland, and there were green lights shining in the stars far away from me.I was a little curious, so I walked in the direction of the green light.When I got close, I found a group of black cats, staring at me vigilantly.I'm still wondering where there are so many black cats.

At this time, I found that there seemed to be a person standing behind the group of cats.I woke up before I could see who it was.

I’m so tired from this dream, I’m counting the dreams I’ve had, all dreams about looking for things are very hard work.But the strange thing is that I can never remember my own dreams, but I remember this dream very clearly, and I even have the illusion that it happened in real life.

After washing up, I was going to go downstairs to eat with Jing Jing. When I went out, I saw a yellow talisman lying on the ground. It might have been dropped when Zhou Peng and the others went out last night.So I picked it up and pasted it up, and continued to walk downstairs.

It rained all night, and there was still a bit of humidity in the air. Although the sun came out early, the ground was still very muddy.

After arriving at the Wetland Park, Xiao Xiao kept asking Zhou Peng to take pictures of her, and the two were laughing and arguing over there.I didn't like sports very much at first, and after walking a few places, I found a gazebo, and I planned to smoke a cigarette and take a rest here.

Jing Jing naturally followed, sitting next to me and planning to take a photo with me.To be honest, I don't like taking pictures very much, but she said that since we are already together, no matter how bad we are, we have to take a photo together.

"I had a strange dream last night." Hearing what I said, she put down her phone and listened to me carefully.

"I dreamed that I was in a wetland, and I saw a group of black cats, and a person, but I woke up before I could see who it was." After I finished speaking, I looked at her, and felt her face turned pale, and there was a smile in her eyes. With horror.

After a while, she opened her mouth and said, "I, I also had the same dream as yours!" As soon as I said this, my scalp felt numb.The odds of this happening in real life are simply lower than the odds of winning the lottery.

When we were still staring at each other, Zhou Peng came over and told us to look at something.Without thinking, I followed him quickly.

A strip of red cloth was tied to an unnamed old tree as thick as a vat, and a memorial tablet was placed at the root of the tree, exactly the same as the one in the hotel.Isn't this the place Xiaoxiao described?
"How is it? I didn't lie to you. What I said is true." Xiaoxiao said on the side.I took a look at Jing Jing and thought I was very scared, so I put my arm around her shoulder to comfort her.

"Okay, okay, let's end this matter here, and scare my family quietly." I said and winked at Xiaoxiao.

Walking around for a day, I didn't have much interest in looking at the scenery, and I kept paying attention to Jing Jing's every move. I always felt that her reaction was a bit wrong.After returning to the hotel, I looked at her seriously and asked her if she had anything to say to me.

"Actually, I told you that there were ghosts in our village, and it was either someone else's house or ours." She paused, and continued: "I was only five or six years old at that time, and one day my grandfather came back from the field. At that time, I said that I picked up a strange little sign in the woods on the edge of the field, and the symbols like this were painted on it." After she finished speaking, she pointed to the yellow talisman on the door.

"Later, grandpa fell ill the next day and said that he dreamed of a RB soldier who wanted to kill him or something. Rural people are very superstitious. It happened that Ma Daxian was in the city, so grandma went to ask the village chief Can you contact Ma Daxian and come to my house to see what's going on?" When I heard her talking about Ma Daxian, all I could think of was the liar, the Ma Daxian who almost killed Liu Jianguo.

He paused quietly, adjusted his breathing, and continued:
"A few days later, grandpa became weaker, but fortunately he invited Ma Daxian over. When he came, he opened his mouth to ask for money, and grandma borrowed from several companies to get the money together. The village said that Ma Daxian Grandma is relieved. He opened an altar in the yard, and gave a talisman when he finally left. I thought the matter was over, but Grandpa’s illness still didn’t recover after that.” Speaking of this, she Started to cry.

I wiped her tears and asked her to adjust her emotions, and waited until she stopped crying before letting her continue.

"Then when I was going to look for that Ma Daxian again, I couldn't find it. The whole family didn't know what to do, so my grandma called my father and told him to come back quickly. When my father came back, he brought someone with him. I don't remember the name What's the name, I just remember that the surname seems to be Zhang." As soon as I said the surname Zhang, I immediately regained my spirits, maybe it's the master, an old man, so I hurriedly asked if it was Zhang Muzhen.

"It seems so. I just remember that he had a weird temper."

Hearing what she said, it seems that he is the master, but why did he come here.

"As soon as he entered the door, he tore off the talisman on the door. My grandma asked what was going on. He said that this talisman was not a talisman to exorcise ghosts and evil spirits. Not only was it useless, but it would also bring disasters. Then he looked at grandpa , let my dad catch a rooster, he held the rooster and shook it on Grandpa's head a few times, and then said some spells." I listened to her seriously, and couldn't say a word. Can't fall behind, the master has too much strength left.

"Then I killed the chicken, mixed some ink with the rooster's blood, wrote a talisman and put it on for my grandpa, and said that I will kill a rooster on the 15th day of the Lunar New Year, and sprinkle the blood in front of the main gate for a period of time. Strange to say, when all these things were done, grandpa fell asleep, very at ease. Dad wanted to give him money, but he didn't want it, so he had a meal at home, and the next day saw grandpa sick It's only when things get better." It seems that the character of the master is really good, and I can't help but raise my admiration for him to another level.

I comforted her for a while, intending to tell her about my being a Taoist priest, but just as I was about to open my mouth, Zhou Peng broke into the door in a hurry.

"Xiao Xiao, something happened to her, Xiao Xiao!" I quickly got up and ran out with him, quietly following behind.

Walking into their room, I saw Xiaoxiao staring at the ceiling with her eyes wide open, her face pale, her lips trembling, lying motionless on the bed.

"Have you told your uncle and aunt?" I asked Zhou Peng.

"Not yet." He said.

"That's good, you go to my room and pull my suitcase over." I quickly closed my eyes and got lucky, and Zhou Peng came back with the suitcase after a while.

Quickly opened the suitcase, took out the yellow paper inside, brushed a little on it with a pen, and a pure heart talisman was drawn.

"I said thirteen, do you still know this?" The two of them stared blankly, and opened their mouths.

"Don't talk about it, I don't know if it will work or not?" After saying the formula and chanting the mantra, he pasted the talisman on his small forehead, and then a faint green light came out.

If you want to talk about why you put the talisman on the forehead, it is probably because when things like evil spirits happen, it is mostly because the victim’s spirit is disturbed by a special magnetic field. Cut off the link between the two.

"It's fine for the time being, but it's not enough to solve the problem in front of me. I don't know what happened to him. I can only save her if I figure it out." It's good to do it.

I comforted them a few words and then let them sit down first, and then quickly called the master and his old man.

"What? Why did you go there?" I explained to the master what happened. He was silent for a long time, and then told me to take off the talisman on the door first.

I hurried to the door and took off the charm, and then told the master.He sighed and said, he didn't expect to meet me so soon.I didn't understand what he meant, so I asked what was going on, but he just kept sighing, and then asked me to take a pen and prepare to draw symbols.

According to the old man's dictation, he drew a talisman. The talisman's gut was very similar to the one pasted on the door, but not very similar. The master said it was the seven-star heaven and earth curse.

The master said that the talismans pasted on the door are not righteous talismans, but evil spirits and heretics used to attract popularity. People who are not strong enough will definitely be recruited. Fortunately, the method of solving this spell is not difficult, as long as I draw the talisman just now. After the spell is burned, mix the ashes with rice wine and drink it to solve the spell.
