Using my words to change the subject, Ma Xiaocui also changed the subject in a panic: "How did he die? When did it happen?"
I simply told her the story, and she was quite enthusiastic after listening. She took the initiative to call the hospital in the county town, and then drove me to get a natural death certificate. When the body was taken to the funeral home, she drove me all the way. With the reform of funeral culture now, it is almost impossible to avoid cremation, so the body must be kept in the funeral home overnight.
As for some people who asked me before whether the cremation of my parents' bodies would have any impact on Feng Shui. Don't worry about this. We are made of our father's sperm and mother's blood. Even if our bones have turned to ash, they are still the essence of our body. As an aside, all of us are born after being conceived for ten months in our mother's womb. We are most closely connected to our mother's blood. Therefore, the mother's grave has the fastest and most direct impact on our children. If the mother is buried well, you can feel the mysterious Feng Shui within ten days. However, when collecting the bones, you must follow the order of feet down and head up. The jewelry on the body cannot fall into the coffin, and there must be no blood when sealing the coffin. I have seen a person who sealed the coffin with blood before. As a result, his eldest son was stabbed to death in a fight three months later.
The rest is nothing. Ma Xiaocui was very righteous and accompanied me for a whole day. According to the rules, someone should be vigilant on the first day. It's just that the bones have been sent to the funeral home, so I just bought some paper money and funeral items and returned to the cabin alone.
Maybe some people will be puzzled. The second grandmother has entered the reincarnation. What's the point of you keeping vigil? Isn't that just deceiving yourself?
In fact, things are not that simple. There are many living beings on the road of reincarnation. According to legend, it is pitch black there. Now I am at home, as a younger generation, burning incense and offering sacrifices to her and keeping vigil. Then my second grandmother will see a bright light on the dark road. Moreover, the souls of people who drink Meng Po soup walk unconsciously. The light I keep vigil can guide her and help her find a good way to reincarnate.
As for the return of souls on the first seven days, it is the souls of people who are brought back by the underworld to see their families for the last time. If white ash is sprinkled on the ground, you can see the footprints on the ash, and you can know what the elders have been reincarnated into. For example, when we go to the graves during festivals, we worship the souls who guard the corpses, and the vitality in the Feng Shui treasure land depends on the souls who guard the corpses to pass on to the children living in the world.
So, when you go to the graves during festivals, you might as well talk to the elderly about the recent situation. Don't talk nonsense about things you don't understand, because things you can't see may not necessarily not exist.
Let's first talk about the vigil that night and Sister Ma's enthusiasm. I don't know why I am so popular, but Ma Xiaocui is getting more and more "excessive". For example, after a busy afternoon, she sent me back to the cabin. The smell in the cabin was not very good, and the light was broken, so she bought a light bulb for me to replace.
I am very grateful to her for this. After all, I am unfamiliar with the place and my motorcycle is not with me. It is inconvenient to go anywhere. With her help, I saved a lot of trouble. So I drew the talisman paper and pressed the oil lamp in a familiar way, set up the mourning hall for the second grandmother, and burned some paper money in the copper basin every once in a while for those wild ghosts.
It was getting dark little by little, and the room was very messy. Looking at the sundries and garbage piled up everywhere around, emitting a strange smell, Ma Xiaocui offered to help me clean up the house. Naturally, I said no and refused her. But she said nonchalantly: "You are a grown man and you can't clean up. The house is full of odors. I will help you clean up."
"Sister, it's really not necessary. How is my brother-in-law? Is he okay?" I said this on purpose to make her leave, but she complained again: "He? He is so energetic. I got up in the middle of the night last night and saw him sitting in the living room watching the game. He slept at home for another day. He drank some wine in the afternoon and fell asleep again. Now he doesn't even dare to leave the house. He is even more timid than a grown girl. You said he was not like this before. How come he has changed in the past few years after getting married?"
After saying that, she sighed , said melancholy: "I have a miserable life. I take care of all the big and small things at home. I go to deal with the grain collectors who come to bargain for the price. I also go to deal with the people who come to the gas station to make trouble. In fact, my personality was not so violent before. It was because he could not do anything that forced me to become a fake man." Seeing that he was like a child without a mother, I interrupted him and said, "Thank you for helping me clean the house. Look, do you need me to do anything else?" "No, no, this is just a small thing." Ma Xiaocui took the rag and started cleaning. She chatted with me from time to time, which made me feel very uncomfortable. Not long after, she actually took off the coat. In summer, she wore less. Especially when she was mopping the floor, she deliberately lowered her body in front of me. The two plump white balls were shaking in front of me intentionally or unintentionally. Coupled with that slightly meaningful look, no matter how stupid I was, I knew what she wanted to do. I sighed and told her to go out for some fresh air. Then I walked out and sat in the yard smoking. I smiled bitterly and asked myself why she had improper thoughts about me since I didn't do anything to this elder sister.
As the saying goes, lust is like a knife above your head. This does not refer to the relationship between husband and wife, but to the partial peach blossom outside of the couple. Partial peach blossom is a disaster. Moreover, those who destroy other people's families will not only lose their virtue, but will be tortured by cutting their tongues and peeling their skins after death. Moreover, I am a Taoist priest, and I cultivate the noble spirit. Once I go beyond the limit, it will ruin my Taoist heart.
After smoking two cigarettes in a row, night has fallen. But not long after, Ma Xiaocui left the room. I thought she was leaving, and I was quite happy.
But she said, "It's all my fault. I was so busy that I forgot to eat. Wait, I'll drive to buy you food now."
"Don't bother me." When I wanted to refuse, she had already left the yard in a hurry, which made me feel very unnatural.
I filled out some papers for my second grandmother. I was a little curious about what kind of master Mrs. Hu was, how the spirit communicated with the master, and it had been almost a day since my second grandmother passed away. Why didn't she show up to see me?
I waited and waited, but Mrs. Hu didn't come. Instead, Ma Xiaocui, the living ancestor, came. She came into the hut with wine and food in her arms. In fact, I really wanted to tell her, 'Sister, I'm here to watch the spirit, not on vacation.'
"Come and help." She called me and said, "It's inconvenient to hold the stew, so I fried two meats, two vegetables, and made you some white wine."
My stomach growled a few times. No matter how I couldn't accept Ma Xiaocui's enthusiasm, I still had to eat when I was hungry, so I walked to the dining table to help her set the food.
You know what, I love all the dishes I ordered. I grabbed the big steamed bun and started to eat it. Ma Xiaocui sat opposite me and kept persuading me to slow down: "No one is snatching it from you, brother, I think you are not an ordinary person. You said you are not a fairy from heaven, right?"
I almost burst out laughing. If I were a fairy, would the King of Hell beat my parents? Can I still be a Feng Shui master? In the end, I am still a miserable person.
"You misunderstood, I am a Taoist priest, and I came out to find my grandfather." I explained.
Ma Xiaocui opened the white wine and handed it to me, but I refused it. Unless it was a special situation, I would not drink a drop of alcohol. She said disapprovingly: "You are here, how can you not drink a little?"
I really can't drink it.
Ma Xiaocui was anxious and said that if I didn't drink a little, I would look down on her.
Frowning, I said, "It's too late. If you don't go back now, I guess the road won't be easy to walk on."
"No!" Ma Xiaocui drank a mouthful of wine and said, "We had a quarrel at home. My old lady is just like that. She only knows how to speak for her son. We quarreled over a small matter, but she scolded me all over. My husband not only didn't help, but also complained that I quarreled with her mother. The most annoying thing is not this. When I was about to go out this morning, I saw that she didn't dare to go out anyway, so I asked her to settle the accounts at home. As a result, she got anxious and said that she didn't have time. While I was getting dressed, he played games. Brother, please judge, should I be angry?"
After that, she drank another mouthful and began to tell her unhappiness like a gas bucket. It made my head hurt. Just when I couldn't bear it anymore, Ma Xiaocui stood up with a red face, walked towards me a few steps, and suddenly put her right hand on my shoulder. Her eyes were blurry, and she deliberately lowered her collar. She said in a nervous and expectant voice: "You say, I am pretty, but why do I have to deal with a man like that? I am so miserable."
I felt something was wrong. We have all seen drunk people. Their eyes are straight, but Ma Xiaocui's eyes are erratic. The spring light under her eyes is very charming, and I feel that she seems to exude a special fragrance.
From this, I concluded that something magnified Ma Xiaocui's emotions, just like you originally just have a feeling of cursing, but after amplification, it will become that you want to kill someone.
I stood up and pushed her away, saying warily, "Who are you?"
"Me? Brother, don't you recognize me?" She said in a resentful tone, with one hand on her chest to slightly block it, and the other hand untied her clothes, revealing her half-faced body like a lute in front of me. She held the fullness of her chest with one hand, but accidentally revealed a little bit of spring light. She walked towards me slowly with cat steps and said seductively, "Brother, we are all adults. I will definitely not pester you. I just like you one-sidedly. I see you traveling around alone. Don't you want to?"
I frowned, feeling more and more that something was wrong, so I said in a sharp tone : "The soul-controlling method is mostly for spirits to confuse other people's minds. Although people have seven emotions and six desires, they are suppressed by etiquette. Only wild beasts ignore etiquette and use ghost magic to magnify people's emotions infinitely. Tell me! Who are you!" Then I took out the talisman pen and said sternly: "Whenever a spirit harms a person, there must be a trace of spirit left in the human body. If you don't show up again, don't blame me for destroying your spirit!"
Ma Xiaocui stared at me for a long time, and suddenly slowly put on her clothes again. The blurred and charming look disappeared, replaced by a cold face. Looking at me with wisdom eyes, her spirit platform was wrapped with a layer of green mist.
She said in a calm voice: "Because my true form is a fox, and foxes are extremely lustful, the disciples who worship me must be upright people. Otherwise, once they inherit my immortal root, they will have more peach blossoms. If they don't have a strong will to restrain themselves, both men and women will damage my hundred years of Taoism and Yinde because of lust. Although you call me aunt, you still have to worship me, so moral matters cannot be ignored. I am very satisfied that you can keep your heart and not be confused by appearances. When you fall asleep at night, I will enter your dream and explain the reason to you. Now put the Tai Chi gong on the green bamboo. When the midnight comes, I expect that Taoist will come to provoke again."
