Chapter 156: The Unbearable Beam

I even have some doubts that the successor of the Luban Heavenly Book mentioned by the Lord Fuyuanzhai has something else? Because I also know that although the Luban Heavenly Book is magical and mysterious, there are not a few people in the world who practice the Luban Heavenly Book, but they are just the depth of what they have learned.

I asked Yang Chen quietly, is there anyone else who can do this Luban Heavenly Book? Yang Chen proudly said that his grandfather once said that the Luban Heavenly Book has always been circulated among the people, and there are actually many people who know it, but most of them are broken books, and some are even imitated by later generations. There are not many real Luban Heavenly Books in the world. The Yang family is the authentic Luban Heavenly Books successor. If the Luban Heavenly Books skills are divided into 100%, and the others have learned 20 to 30%, their family has learned 70 to 80%.

He said it was a pledge, but Yi Sheng never showed up. Yang Chen's grandfather was always as if nothing had happened. He even looked a little confused, and often forgot everything, just like all the foolish old men who were old. Yang Chen was a little sad. He told me that he and his grandfather had only been separated for a few months, and his grandfather had grown much older. His originally straight waist was bent, his speech was confused, and his eyes were not bad, as if he had been aging for more than ten years.

He said that when he graduated from college, he would return home and stay with his grandfather, spending his old age and seeing him off, and never leave again.

I patted him, but said nothing, and suddenly I was a little envious of him.

Until the third day, someone hurried to find Grandpa Yang Chen.

This man was a neighbor of Xu in the village. After running in, he told Grandpa Yang Chen that he should have built a house the day before yesterday, but for some reason, the beam could not be raised, and it collapsed inexplicably when it was installed. It even almost hurt people twice, so he had to stop work. Later, he tried several times, but the result was the same as that day. There was no way, so he had to come to Mr. Yang for help.

Yang Chen's grandfather was originally named Yang Hongxian, and he was highly prestigious in the village, so he has always been respected as Mr. Yang. After hearing the words of the neighbor, he just shook his head and said that he was old now and did not want to touch those things anymore. He just wanted to live safely for the past few years and not cause trouble for his younger generations.

The man seemed very anxious and kept saying good things to Grandpa Yang Chen and begged hard, saying that he had asked someone to see the life before he went to the beam, saying that these two days were good days, and if he missed it, it would be very bad for the family, so he had no choice but to do anything, and he didn't have to do it himself, just ask for some advice, and at least he could erect the beam, which would be enough.

Grandpa Yang Chen sighed, narrowed his eyes slightly, and his hands were huddled in his sleeves. He said for a long time. After a long time, he said, "It's not that the beams in your house cannot be built, but after they are built, they will collapse at night."

The man slapped his thigh and said excitedly that it was right. This was the case. The beam of the room could indeed be erected the day before yesterday, but it collapsed for no reason at night. Then he rebuilt the beam yesterday, but he couldn't erect it no matter what. He tried again today, and it was still like this, so he came to ask for help.

Grandpa Yang Chen said that he already knew about this, but he had to go to the door to see it before he could find out what was going on.

The man knew that Grandpa Yang Chen had agreed, so he hurriedly called Grandpa Yang Chen out. The car had already been prepared outside. I gave Yang Chen a wink, so he naturally understood, so he and I greedily held the old man on the left and right and walked out together.

Grandpa Yang Chen looked at us around and saw a trace of helplessness in his eyes, but he didn't say anything. He just shook his head and went out with us, got into the man's car, and headed to Shangliang's new house.

There was nothing to say along the way, and soon we arrived at the place. Several brand new large tiled houses stood in front of us, with more than a dozen workers standing around, and the beams of the new house were tilted and upside down. When everyone saw Grandpa Yang Chen coming, they all surrounded him, just like seeing a great immortal.

I was already excited and curious, but looking at Grandpa Yang Chen's appearance, I was still trembling and confused, muttering and muttering, and didn't know what to say. I looked up at the new house, suddenly shook us away, and walked over by myself.

I was a little surprised. The old man seemed to be getting stronger and his waist was straightened. He stepped to the house, circled around, looked at the direction, looked at the beam, and suddenly laughed.

Everyone didn't understand why, so they hurriedly asked the old man what he said. He looked at everyone and pointed at the beam and said, "Thanks to your beam that can't be built, if you can't be built smoothly, something will definitely happen in the future."

The person surnamed Xu naturally doesn't understand, and I'm also puzzled. Generally speaking, if the beam cannot be erected, this is the precursor to something happening. Why did he say that if the beam is erected successfully, something will inevitably happen?

The old man folded his fingers and kept saying, "Where did you buy this beam from? How much is it worth?"

The man was stunned and grunted for a long time before he said that this was a second-hand house beam that was removed from another house. He was also greedy for cheapness at that time. He saw that the house beam was quite new, so he bought it, but he didn't expect that this happened.

Grandpa Yang Chen said, it was because your ancestors accumulated virtue and protection, which made you unable to build beams. Do you know that the beam looks nothing unusual, but there is a bloody aura on the beam. This shows that a bloody murder must have occurred in the house in the previous house of the beam. Blood splashed on the beams and became resentful. Maybe the evil ghost will possess it on the beams. If your family erected the beams, disasters will definitely happen in the near future. Even if there is no disaster, strange things will happen. In short, this is an ominous thing.

When the man heard this, he was immediately frightened and asked someone to take away the beam soon. Grandpa Yang Chen stopped him and said that the beam had bloody energy and had been left in his home. Even if he threw away the beam at this time, it would be useless.

The man thought about it and said, it would be useless to throw it away, so he would burn it with fire. He had heard that fire could ward off evil spirits. No matter how powerful it is, it would be done with fire.

Grandpa Yang Chen said that if you want to crack the evil spirit of the beam, it is not enough to burn it alone. There must be two steps. First, take the beam away and burn it. Second, wrap the ashes of the beam burned in talisman paper and worship it for 49 days. This method can slowly dissolve the blood evil spirit. Otherwise, once it is burned, the evil ghost will lose his sustenance and will come to seek revenge, and something will happen to his family immediately.

The man was immediately frightened. The whole family was trembling and begged Grandpa Yang Chen to use his skills to save the family's life. Grandpa Yang Chen hesitated for a long time, looked at Yang Chen again, and finally nodded in agreement.

So, under his command, the workers plucked up the courage to carry the beam into the wild, lit the fire, and burned it for nearly two hours before the beam was completely burned to ashes. The scene at that time was very scary, because the beam was dry and usually smoked when it burned, but the beam was filled with black smoke, and it was full of claws, just like some evil spirits in it, which made people frightened at first sight.

After the beams of the house were completely turned into ashes, it took another hour before they gradually cooled down. When everyone stepped forward, they saw that the ground was covered with black and gray, and there was a trace of human form in the middle.

During this period, Grandpa Yang Chen had already spread out the yellow paper and drew a talisman. Then everyone put away the black ash and wrapped it into the talisman paper. Grandpa Yang Chen stretched out his finger, stroked in the air, and gestured the shape of a large seal, and suddenly pressed it on the talisman paper. Then he breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "Dig a deep pit for this bag and press it in the east with a big stone. Within 49 days, no one must approach within three meters. Then, even if it succeeds, dig out the wooden ash and scattered it in the river, and the resentment of the evil ghost will completely dissipate.

Everyone did as he did one by one, and he said to the man surnamed Xu, now you can buy a new beam immediately, and then set off firecrackers for an hour, don't stop in the middle, after the setting, just build the beam to ensure success.

The man was naturally very happy, so he immediately did it and soon bought a new beam and a large box of firecrackers. Everyone returned to the new house and lit firecrackers around the house, leaving only a gap. It sounded for more than an hour. The ground was covered with red paper scrapers, and the air was filled with strong smell of gunpowder.

I secretly saw some tricks. He did this to use firecrackers to drive away the evil spirit in the house, leaving a gap, which is the purpose. In fact, this is also a relatively gentle approach. If there is no gap left, it is a tough fight.

At this time, Grandpa Yang Chen checked around the house again, waved his hand and said, "Put on the beam."

This time, it was really smooth. The beam of the room was steadily mounted without any effort. The man surnamed Xu thanked Grandpa Yang Chen for his gratitude, and almost kowtowed. He even brought out a thick red envelope to thank Grandpa Yang Chen for his help.

However, the old man confiscated the red envelope and just took out a dollar from it, saying that this is a rule and he cannot do things for nothing, but he will not accept that money.

In this way, the man sent a car to take us back. After arriving at home, Yang Chen was very excited and pestered his grandfather to ask this and that. However, Yang Chen's grandfather seemed to be in a bad mood. He sighed and said, the more he helped others, the worse he would be to himself. Don't learn this Luban Heavenly Book in the future.

After that, no matter what Yang Chen asked, the old man refused to say anything. He just told us that we would go back to school tomorrow. The school holidays were all around New Year's Day. It was still very early, so don't lie to him.

Yang Chen and I were speechless. I didn't expect that the old man was not confused at all. No matter what we said, he seemed to be determined and had a bad face this time, so he asked us to leave immediately tomorrow.

His attitude was very strange. We both couldn't ask for any reason, so we had to go to bed in disappointment.
