Ancestral handicraft

An old man in the family is like a treasure.

Wei Zhihe's family already had Mr. Wei as a big treasure, and facing the big treasure of the Duan family, he couldn't let him give up treatment, it would appear that he was very rude.

Duan Yingbo was speaking with great interest, and probably rarely told others about the past deeds of his ancestors. Now he is very eager to express, so Wei Zhihe continued to listen with the mentality of listening to the story.

Wei Zhihe continued to ask: "And then?"

Duan Yingbo was unwilling to scare Wei Zhihe, and continued: "The ancestor looked around. He was frightened half to death in the main coffin, but now there is a voice. He almost peed his pants."

Wei Zhihe asked patiently: "So what's inside?"

Duan Yingbo: "The ancestor didn't know it yet. He only knew that he agreed to certain conditions of that voice in a daze. The first thing was to leave the tomb with that thing. Under the circumstances at that time, he had to answer the conditions of that thing. Otherwise, with his own ability, he would not be able to leave the tombs full of institutions."

"In the dark, the ancestor didn't know what the sound was. He only knew that his neck was wrapped around something like a vine. If he didn't listen to that thing, he would be killed by that thing at any time."

"Under panic and fear, the ancestor followed the instructions of the thing and carefully left the tomb. When he came out, it was already slightly bright, and the ancestor ran towards the direction of the house. He was alone, and no other teammates were found. Only the secret team died. Get him one."

"After running down the mountain, he accidentally tripped over a stone and fell unconscious. When he woke up, he was lying in a farmer's house. There was nothing around his neck, as if what happened in the tomb the night before was a dream. With the help of the farmer, the ancestor left the place where he was so scared that he could hardly breathe, traveled to many places, and returned to his hometown. He thought that everything would be fine if he escaped a catastrophe, but he did not expect that the thing was actually in his body and did not Follow him home. One night, he heard the voice again."

"The voice started talking to him again, this time more threatening, and he was asking for something in return."

"The ancestor asked him what he could do to help, and the thing said that what he wanted was the nutrients in the human body, because it was parasitic in the body of the tomb owner before, and after the death of the tomb owner, it also fell silent. That night, he was awakened by the breath and blood of the stranger, and the ancestor happened to get into the main coffin again, and it got into the body of the ancestor, but at that time, the ancestor was frightened, his body was already in pain, and he didn't notice that. The slight pain from the thing getting inside him."

"That thing said that if he took his ancestors out of the tomb, he had to fulfill the conditions agreed at the time. It has only one condition, and the Duan family can feed it for generations."

Speaking of this, Duan Yingbo began to sigh again, and Duan Mingkang handed him the teacup again.

Wei Zhihe knew it was his turn to ask questions, which is what old people like when they tell stories.

"What the hell is that thing? I saw from Duan Shiwei that it looks like a small tree?"

Duan Mingkang finally said, "It's called Rong."

Wei Zhihe is so smart, he immediately thought of some kind of plant: "Is it a banyan tree?"

Duan Mingkang continued the story told by Duan Yingbo: "Yes, it said that it was a big banyan tree that grew on the mountain. One day, an official took a part of it back and planted it as a potted plant. It was originally in the It lived on the mountain for many years. After becoming a potted plant, it absorbed the essence of the sun and the moon and the essence of its owner, and grew very fast. But in order not to let the owner die, no one raised it. It turned into a demon queen and reached an agreement with the owner. , got into his body, a human and a demon co-existed in one body. But there is still a difference between a human and a demon, the demon survived the death of a human, and many years later it met our ancestors of the Duan family."

Wei Zhihe was curious about the other parts: "Has it ever hurt your Duan family?"

Duan Mingkang shook his head: "No, after the death of the previous parasite, the host family will look for the next generation in advance, but the life span of each parasitic body is not long. Basically, it can't live until the age of 35, which is a hurdle that cannot be overcome. The last parasite was my eldest brother, who lived for 35 years, and on the day he died, Rong entered Shi Wei's body."

Wei Zhihe thought of a question: "If it is not allowed to continue to enter the body of your Duan family, what will be the consequences?"

Duan Mingkang: "According to the records of the ancestors, they also tried, but it has been fruitless. We can't find it at all, and we can't get it out of the human body at all. We have sought many celestial masters in private, but all I don't know how to solve it."

Wei Zhihe: "Then when you meet me, you are actually a dead horse and a living horse doctor."

Duan Mingkang smiled wryly, completely lacking the aura of a superior person like last night, and said dejectedly: "Yes."

At this time, Duan Yingbo also recovered from his excitement, and said: "Xiao Wei, although I don't know your grandfather, I also know that your grandfather is very powerful. You have inherited his skills, so Wei Shi will entrust you." .”

Wei Zhihe: "Grandpa Duan is serious, I will try my best."

After all, the two families are relatives. When he helped Duan Shiwei and the Duan family, he also helped his aunt. As for their Duan family's trivialities and grievances, it was inconvenient for Wei Zhihe to care too much.

The Duan family has kept silent about this matter, and there is probably another reason.

In feng shui, the banyan tree is the king of trees, which can dispel evil spirits. The ancestors of the Duan family were able to become rich from an unknown person, and they have an inseparable relationship with the "banyan tree".

Among the folks, there is a saying that the banyan tree should be planted in front of the house, and the bamboo should be planted behind the house.

There must be reasons why "Rong" chooses the eldest son or grandson of each family. One is to bless the Duan family, and the other is that it can continue to grow itself.

It's just that the person parasitized by it will not live to be 35 years old, which has become a heartache for the Duan family.

Do you want life or glory and wealth?

Duan Yingbo and Duan Mingkang still hid this part from him, or they didn't realize that the smooth sailing of the Duan family for many years also had the role of "banyan" in it, or maybe they felt that the role of "banyan" was no longer so obvious, I want to get rid of it and continue my grandson's life.

Wei Zhihe didn't blame Duan Yingbo for hiding this matter from him, it seemed rather mysterious no matter what.

Perhaps it has been passed down from generation to generation for many years, many things have been lost, and the function of "banyan" has been forgotten, and its contribution has been forgotten. Gradually, its existence is only the word "doing evil", and if it is passed on, it will become something that people are afraid of. Existence must be divided and then quickly.

From the few words of Duan Yingbo and Duan Mingkang, Wei Zhihe basically connected the whole story together.

I don't know if the "banyan" parasitic in Duan Shiwei's body knows what Duan's family thinks about it.

Knowing what species it is, Wei Zhihe already has an idea.

Different monsters must be dealt with in different ways.

Wei Zhihe will choose to eat the little demon who has done something irreparable, like Su Zi who did something wrong but didn't hurt anyone's life, so it depends on the situation to absorb part of the monster's power.

But "Rong" is a special case. It has an agreement with the Duan family, and it does not belong to any of the above. There are violent means to force it out.

The premise of the two methods has to be in harmony with the "banyan". Judging from the extent to which it responds to the moonlight, it is conscious, and it has to communicate with it through Duan Shiwei's body.

Wei Zhihe had to think of a way to communicate.

I heard Duan Yingbo and Duan Mingkang talk all morning, they stayed in Wei Zhihe for dinner, and the lunch was quite sumptuous.

Duan Shiwei was finally allowed to have lunch with them, and in the process, he observed Wei Zhihe more carefully.

After the four of them had lunch together, Duan Mingkang asked Duan Yingbo: "Dad, do you want to talk to Mingyuan and the others about this?"

Duan Yingbo said: "It's not too late to talk about Zhihe after it's settled, don't tell them for now."

Duan Mingkang: "Understood." He turned his head and reminded his son, "Don't mention this matter to anyone."

Duan Shiwei shrugged: "Understood."

He knew before that his body was different from others, what was the specific disease, and his family never asked him, and they never gave him an answer. He had guessed, but as he grew up, he no longer guessed. .

Wei Zhihe was enjoying the mild Longjing tea, and when the three generations of the Duan family were talking, he chose not to interrupt.

Duan Yingbo is still very concerned about his grandson's body: "Zhihe, why did we start this matter?"

Wei Zhihe put down the small teacup: "You can start at any time, but I will observe first and find an appropriate opportunity to communicate with it."

Duan Mingkang was puzzled: "Not directly..."

Wei Zhihe suddenly said seriously: "After confirming that there is no problem, I will help you in my way. In addition, I have another question."

Duan Yingbo: "You ask."

Wei Zhihe said: "After it comes out, I will take it away, and your Duan family can't ask me to go back."

Duan Yingbo and Duan Mingkang looked at each other and said affirmatively: "We will definitely not come back. If you are worried, we can make a written statement."

Duan Mingkang said, "Yes."

Wei Zhihe: "Okay, then let me handle it."

After the two parties discussed it, they drew up a written document. After Wei Zhihe dried the written document, he put it away properly.

Duan Mingkang felt that Wei Zhihe was too cautious, how could they want that terrible monster, for ordinary people like them, it was too late to hide, so how could they raise it.

What's more, their Duan family has raised "banyan" for so many years, and they definitely don't want anyone to die because of it.

Wei Zhihe would not tell Duan's family if it was unnecessary. I believe they have already made up their minds.

They gave up the "banyan" to save their descendants.

After the discussion, Wei Zhihe looked at Duan Shiwei: "I have to go back to prepare some things tonight."

Duan Shiwei: "Aren't you going to communicate with that person?"

Wei Zhihe: "Don't worry, communication is not about a short while, I have to guarantee your safety before communication."

Duan Shiwei didn't dare to be in a hurry, he was joking with his own life in this rush.

Duan Yingbo asked: "What is the constitution of Zhihe?"

Wei Zhihe looked at Duan Shiwei, who was covered with bruises under his eyelids: "Let him have a good rest first, and I will go and communicate with him at three o'clock in the afternoon."

Whether it is a peaceful confrontation or a violent confrontation will be discussed in the afternoon.

Duan Shiwei couldn't sleep, but he was escorted back to his room to sleep by his family.

Wei Zhihe asked Duan's family to prepare an incense burner, and lit Duan Shiwei's homemade incense in his room.

Duan Mingkang did everything himself, he didn't even use bodyguards, and Duan Shiwei's mother and grandma didn't show up either. They probably wanted to deal with this matter in a low-key manner, and Wei Zhihe himself didn't like it because there were so many people.

Let's keep a low profile.

Duan Shiwei put on his pajamas and leaned on the bed, seeing Wei Zhihe sitting on his lazy sofa reading a magazine, he couldn't help asking: "Are you staring at me while sleeping?"

Wei Zhihe looked up at Duan Shiwei: "What do you think?"

Duan Shiwei saw the playfulness in his eyes: "But I can't sleep."

Wei Zhihe smelled the fragrance of the homemade soothing incense, and said, "I count to ten, and you can fall asleep."

Duan Shiwei fell on the bed and smiled exaggeratedly: "I don't believe it, you count quickly."

Whether he believed it or not, Wei Zhihe began to count: "Ten." His voice was low and deep, extremely confusing.

"Nine."

"Eight."

"seven."

……

"two."

"one."

Duan Shiwei's eyes were already squinted and his eyelids were clenched. After Wei Zhihe finished counting to ten, he really fell into a deep sleep.

Duan Mingkang, who was quietly standing by the door, looked very miraculous. He invited Wei Zhihe back to the right person. Fortunately, he didn't make excessive demands on him, and he didn't bully the young man.

He also understands a truth now, it really is: don't bully the young and poor.

When Wei Zhihe saw Duan Mingkang, he smiled at Duan Mingkang: "Kang Bo, I'm sorry, you can't watch it anymore, it's an exclusive secret."

In front of Duan Mingkang, Wei Zhihe closed the door of the room.

Duan Mingkang: "..." Forget it, he is Mr. Xiao Wei now, and his identity is an exorcist.

In fact, Wei Zhihe was just not used to having people watching from the sidelines.

After Duan Shiwei fell asleep for 3 minutes, he turned his body over to one side, pulled off the collar of his pajamas, and pulled it off completely, so that the back of his neck and back were completely exposed in front of him.

The tree-shaped "blue veins" are fading into their own existence, but Wei Zhihe still catches its condition.

"Rong, let's talk, I know you can possess Duan Shiwei."

The banyan hidden in Duan Shiwei's body did not move.

Wei Zhihe dragged a chair and sat in front of the bed, facing the "blue veins" on Duan Shiwei's back, continued: "You often borrow his body to go out to play? Do you think it's fun? His body is getting worse and worse, and it has nothing to do with you." .”

"It doesn't matter if you don't come out to communicate with me. I can tell you clearly that the next thing I will do is to remove you from his body and use the most violent method. Let me think about where your demon beads are hidden. Which corner, the heart? Or the nape of the neck?"

Wei Zhihe's fingertips touched a light red mole on the back of Duan Shiwei's neck.

He felt Duan Shiwei's body trembling slightly.

Duan Shiwei stood up suddenly, reaching out his hand to grab Wei Zhihe's wrist, but Wei Zhihe was already prepared, and took two steps back, out of the reach of his reach.

At this moment, the eyes of "Duan Shiwei" were burning: "Wei Zhihe, how dare you?"

Wei Zhihe chuckled: "Why don't I dare, you are a demon, I am a human. By the way, the body you are using now is also human."

It was "Rong" who occupied Duan Shiwei's body in front of him. He put away his anger and said, "I know what the Duan family wants to do to me."

Wei Zhihe sat back on the lazy chair, leaned on it comfortably, and negotiated in a very lazy way: "Since you know that you still don't get out of his body? Don't tell me that you are used to being a human being, using Duan Shiwei's body to do it." All kinds of things."

Rong felt that Wei Zhihe was still concerned about Duan Shiwei's body at this moment, and did not attack him, so he also put away his intention to attack.

Rong said: "It's good to be a human, but I'm a demon, and I need many years of practice to transform into a human."

Wei Zhihe: "But that's not why you occupy a human body."

The irritable Rong said: "This is a deal between Duan's family and me, you have nothing to do with it!"

Wei Zhihe said calmly: "The Duan family let you parasitize in the human body, using the body to transform the energy you need, and didn't let you use other people's body to satisfy your own desires. Now you have deprived others of the right to live, which has violated yours." Trading principles. Besides, I am the Duan family, please come back and help them remove you, do you think I can control it or not." He was not worried at all.

Facing Duan Shiwei's face, Rong fell into deep thought: "Without Duan Shiwei's body, I am just a plant."

Wei Zhihe asked it: "Do you want to become a human?"

Rong: "I am very envious of those demons who can transform into humans."

Wei Zhihe suddenly seemed to understand something: "Wait a minute, you mean you have never learned shape art?"

Rong was stunned: "...I haven't learned it before."

Wei Zhihe suddenly felt that the Duan family was a little wronged. They met a monster who didn't have enough brains.

To put it bluntly, it's stupid.
