mountain god

"Okay, Mr. Jiang, go back and wait for the news. We will notify you if it is approved." The interviewer said so.

"Okay, thank you." Jiang Yousi left politely. This is the first time this has been answered like this. Finding a job is quite difficult these days.

I managed to find a job in a small company before. Although the salary is not high, I don’t have to work overtime, and there are weekends every week.But just after the probationary period, the company was acquired and layoffs began. Jiang Yousi was honored to be on the list of layoffs just after the internship period.

In this way, the job I just got is gone before it is hot, and I can only continue to look for a job.After submitting a few more resumes, he received a call from his grandpa.

Grandpa rarely takes the initiative to call.

Jiang Yousi answered quickly: "Hello, Grandpa."

"Hey, you Si, can you go home quickly, grandpa thinks there is not much time left, and wants to see you."

"Grandpa? What's wrong with you? Are you sick? Is it serious? Did you go to the hospital?" Jiang Yousi became anxious when he heard that his grandfather was sick.

He grew up with his grandfather. His parents died in a car accident a few years ago. It is said that his grandma died when his father was very young, so he and his grandfather were left to depend on each other for life.

Grandpa took him around at that time, and finally settled in Hengshui Town. At that time, there was a mountain temple in the town, but it was abandoned for a long time. His grandfather took out some savings and rebuilt it, and then settled here. Managed the mountain temple.

Before the temple was repaired, weeds grew in front of the gate, and almost no one noticed it. After Grandpa Jiang came, everyone noticed that there was a mountain temple here.At the beginning, the incense in the temple was not good, but because of one incident, more and more people began to come to the temple to pray.

At that time, someone was building a new house in the town. Just after the foundation was laid, his grandfather happened to pass by, so he went there and told everyone that they could not build a house here, and something would happen.

The person who built the house would definitely not believe it. He thought his grandfather was a lunatic who came to make trouble, so he was driven away.But the next day, his grandfather continued to go there and said that it was not allowed to build a house. The number of times was too many, and everyone took it easy and let him go.

And the house was built under his grandfather's daily exhortations, and everyone believed that his grandfather was a lunatic even more.At that time, Jiang Yousi was still in high school, and when he returned home, he told his grandfather in disgust, telling him not to go out and talk nonsense.

Grandpa said that he didn't understand it when he was young, and something might happen tomorrow.

Sure enough, there were many bloody handprints outside the newly built house the next day, covering the entire wall, and there were many dead mice outside the door.

The person who built the house was in a panic and suspected that it was done by someone, but the neighbors around did not hear any noise, so they hired someone to wash off the fingerprints and deal with the rats.

The next day, all the walls around the house had bloody fingerprints, and there were more rats at the door.And this is not the only strange thing. The builder thought it was man-made at first, so he called the police, hoping to warn the pranksters, but the police had never dealt with this kind of thing, and it was not easy to handle it. It's nothing.

Within a few days, all the chickens and ducks in the builder's house suddenly died overnight, not because of illness.They were all drained of blood and died.

Although the homeowner was a little puzzled, he was so scared that he had no choice but to go to Jiang Yousi's grandfather in private and bring some fruits.

"Grandpa Jiang, that..."

"The matter of the house? I said before that you can't build a house there. None of you believe me. Now you know."

"I know, I know, so what do you say to do now?"

"I need to donate some sesame oil money, 200 yuan."

"what?"

"If you want to know the solution, I can't tell you in vain. Our little Si is still in school."

"Oh, oh, ok." The homeowner immediately collected it in his pocket for a while, plus some odds and ends, and it was only 52 yuan, "Mr. Jiang, I didn't bring that much money with me when I went out. Bring it home, do you think it will work?"

"Remember to make up afterward."

“good good”

Grandpa Jiang lit a cigarette with a bong in his hand, looked at the man, and said unhurriedly, "Prepare a bowl, if you haven't used it, put a bowl of freshly cooked white rice in it. At the o'clock, take it to the door of the new house to make an offering, then pray three times to the door, and light a few sticks of incense. When you come back, don't look back, even if there is a voice, don't agree, just walk home, remember not to look back! This process cannot Meet someone else, or you have to start all over again."

"That's it? Can it be done? Will there be no more accidents?"

"If you believe it, it works. If you don't believe it, it doesn't work. Believe it or not."

"Believe it, I believe it, I remember it. At twelve o'clock in the evening, white rice was served, three obeisances, no turning back, no response. Okay, okay, remember." The homeowner's mouth was broken. Thinking about going home.

Unexpectedly, within a few days, there were no more blood marks and dead mice in that house.Everyone was talking non-stop around the house that became normal overnight.

The homeowner also brought some fruits and supplements with a smile, and went to Jiang Yousi's house to show his gratitude. He also gave Grandpa Jiang a few hundred yuan more, but his grandfather didn't ask for more, as long as he paid the 140 yuan he owed, no more, no less.

"Grandpa Jiang, can you still live in that house?"

"Yes, it's fine. If you're afraid, you don't have to stay here. You can stay with me. I'm not afraid."

"Then where is it, hehehe, thank you, old man." Then he went back to prepare for the next stage of the house with a smile.

This story gradually spread in the town, and everyone would go to the mountain temple to pray for blessings whenever they had something to do. Gradually, the incense in the temple became more and more prosperous.Most of his tuition fees were earned by his grandfather in this way, and his grandfather seemed unwilling to tell him too much about this matter, and he didn't ask him too much about these things.

Jiang Yousi put down his phone and started to pack his luggage and go home. His home is not far away. He is in the city, and he has a train to go directly to the city. It takes more than an hour, and it takes only an hour from the city to the town.

But because it took some time to wait for the bus, it was already evening when he got home. As soon as he entered the door, he put down his luggage and went to grandpa's room to see grandpa.

"Grandpa, I'm back, how are you doing now, come on, let's go to the hospital." Jiang Yousi asked worriedly.

"Are you back? Help me sit up, don't go to the hospital, I have something to tell you."

Jiang Yousi carefully helped his grandfather lean against the head of the bed to finish the job, then sat on the edge of the bed, holding his grandfather's hand, feeling very distressed.He took a part-time job when he was free during college, and worked hard to find a job after graduation, in order to make money quickly and take his grandfather to live with him in the city, so that his grandfather can live a good life.

But now before I honor my grandfather well, my grandfather suddenly fell ill.

"Stupid child, life and death are life and death. Grandpa is very satisfied with you as a grandson. Listen to me, after I leave, you must protect our village well. I...cough cough...the nine words I taught you before Do you still remember the fingerprints?" Grandpa asked breathlessly.

"I remember, I still remember." Jiang Yousi whimpered.

"You make a seal, and I'll see if there's anything wrong."

"Okay, okay." Jiang Yousi tried his best to open his eyes, looked up, and tried his best to keep the tears in his eyes, "Lin, Bing, Dou, Zhe, Jie, Array, Column, in front." Jiang Yousi made seals while reciting the nine-character mantra, and then his grandfather drew a spell in the air and pushed it towards his right eye.

Reflexively, he closed his eyes, but opened them immediately, but his eyes were itchy, so he rubbed them, and when he opened them again, he saw a white wolf lying not far away?

"Did you see it? Cough... that white wolf."

Jiang Youpan looked at his grandfather in horror.

"I know you don't believe in these things all the time, but you haven't said anything about grandpa. Grandpa didn't want you to get involved, but grandpa doesn't have the ability to handle things well, so you have to work hard to solve it. That... ...The white wolf is your angel, and he will guard you until you die." Grandpa stretched out his hand and touched Jiang Youbo's head, "Youbo, grandpa just doesn't trust you, so the town will be handed over to you Now, you are the mountain god of the next generation... White Wolf will definitely protect you...With him here, grandpa...grandpa...don't worry." After saying that, grandpa disappeared before Jiang Youpan's eyes.Everything came too suddenly, Jiang Yousi hadn't fully adapted to it yet, and his grandfather disappeared before his eyes like this, no matter how powerful a person is, he would be frightened.

"Grandpa! Grandpa..." Jiang Youpan's outstretched hand kept shaking, and tears flowed down unconsciously. After all, it was the grandpa who had lived for so long.Jiang Yousi sat beside his grandfather's bed for a long time. After calming down, he was thinking about how to explain his grandfather's death the next day, and how the funeral would be held. Thinking about it, he actually fell asleep.

After Jiang Yousi woke up the next day, he planned to simply hold a funeral for his grandfather. After all, there were no relatives or acquaintances here, so he invited a few celestial masters to pray or something.When I was about to go out, I saw the person whom my grandfather warned me before came to worship.Seeing Jiang Yousi, the man immediately came over to thank him and said, "Oh, Yousi, you are here. I just wanted to offer incense to the old man."

"Well, because my grandpa..."

"Well, your grandfather's funeral is also over, it's not over seven days, I'll come and offer another incense stick."

"..." Jiang Youpan was a little confused. Is the funeral over?Why does he have no impression at all.

"No, uncle, my grandpa's funeral?"

"Ah, boy, I'm so sorry... Hey, huh? I can't remember what I was going to say."

"Then uncle, my grandfather's name is Jiang Jianhuai, right?" Jiang Jianhuai is his grandfather's name. If he has lived here for so long and helped him before, he should know his grandfather's name.

"That's right, you kid, what's going on, is it too sad that grandpa is gone? It's all right, it'll be fine after a while, so my condolences. Hey." The man patted Jiang Youba on the shoulder.

Didn't grandpa just passed away last night? He also said some strange words.

But last night's white wolf, he saw it clearly through his eyes. Could it be that grandpa is really a mountain god?But will the mountain god die too?

In the past few days, Jiang Yousi has intentionally or unintentionally asked some people who came to pray (his grandpa, but the answer is the same, that is, grandpa had a funeral a few days ago. Even so, Jiang Youpan still organizes for grandpa himself He had a simple funeral. He still wanted to go to the city, so early the next morning, Jiang Yousi dragged his suitcase and walked to the entrance of the village. Wearing a peaked cap, you can wear it to cover it when the sun is too hot. After all, men can't hold sun umbrellas like girls, although they are also afraid of the sun.

Before walking halfway, I heard a strange sound at the foot of the mountain.

"Huh? Your grandpa is dead! Hahahahaha, finally dead! Hahahahaha."

Someone is talking?

"Your grandfather is dead, and I am free~ But, you have to pay back the debt he owed!"

Jiang Yousi heard it clearly, it was a woman's voice, but he didn't see anyone nearby, could it be that he was hallucinating?
