Chapter 161(1/5)
In the township convenience store, the old man was staring at the abacus placed on the counter in a daze.
The abacus broke and the beads rolled to the ground. He picked up the beads one by one and repaired them again.
Although the craftsmanship is very exquisite and there is no trace of being repaired, it is impossible to deceive outsiders but to deceive yourself. Some things are broken in your heart.
There was a small incense burner under the feet of the old man, and the incense burner was densely filled with incense of different regulations, but without exception, all incense was extinguished when less than a quarter of it burned.
This is what is called "broken head fragrance" in the numerology.
Incense does not continue, which means that fate is blocked. If all incense is like this, it means that there is no vitality.
The old man's face was terrifyingly gloomy.
When he was young, even if he was lit incense for those death row prisoners who were about to go to the execution ground, he could burn one ten. This did not mean that there was still a glimmer of hope, but that the way of fortune-telling was jealous and was full of losses.
But now, the old man lit incense for himself, his wife, his grandson, and his whole family was cut off. When he lit incense for his son who had left home, he vomited three mouthfuls of blood and almost fainted.
.
This shows that the vitality of one's own destiny suddenly fell to a level far less than that of a death row prisoner.
Before the execution, the death row prisoners can still look forward to a shout of "keep people under the knife". Their whole family even hopes this little bit.
The old man murmured: "Who did the master provoke this time?"
The master's family opened the seal and summoned the family to separate people. He was already in his old age and was summoned by his son.
Now it seems that things have not only failed, but also involved an extremely terrible backlash of causality.
Judging from the fragrant noodles, the old man even lost the intention to escape because it was meaningless and it was too late to be unable to escape.
"Why are you stunned? The rolling shutter door is broken. You can repair it quickly."
My wife walked over with a rag in her hand.
The old man nodded numbly, stood up, and went to the second floor to get tools.
My wife asked in his back again: "How long will it take for my son to come back when he goes out to visit relatives this time? I miss my son."
The old man responded: "No hurry, the family will be reunited soon."
There are shops on the first floor, houses on the second floor, and houses on the third floor. There are illegal buildings on the house. In the past, only the old man and his son could enter, and they were locked with iron locks on weekdays.
Recently, the old man has started to bring his two grandsons in occasionally, teaching them to recognize some talismans and memorize some techniques.
Their family looks like they have little money outside and have nothing to do with wealth and wealth, but some things cannot be bought no matter how much money they spend.
For example, if your own family’s fate is counted before your daughter-in-law enters, she can give birth to a boy, and her fate is in harmony, and she can get good luck and peace.
Although the two grandsons had just entered school, they were very talented in this field and could inherit their legacy in the future. Even according to the tradition of "master family", the two grandsons also had to separate their families after they became adults, and they never interacted with each other since then.
Ordinary families, if they get married for funerals, ask for fortune-telling, just to follow a process, to be at ease, and to truly believe this, they will have some silly in their minds.
But their family can be implemented in a practical way, with a well-off society, no illness or disaster, and passed down from generation to generation.
When the old man was walking the stairs, he heard the sound of the ceiling fan rotating in the living room on the second floor.
It's winter, who can turn on the fan?
When I arrived at the door of the second floor, I saw that in the living room, my daughter-in-law and two grandsons were all hanging there.
The rotating electric fan blew the hair of the three people.
The blue face, the tongue that was spitting out and the zombie that had appeared.
I had breakfast together, but it took so long to do so.
The old man wiped his eyes, picked up the tools from the corner of the living room, and walked down.
The roller shutter door of the shop on the first floor has been closed. My wife, who was just talking to me, was stuck on the roller shutter door, as if she had been exhausted and turned into lucky paper.
The old wife's eyes showed horror, as if she had seen something terrible.
The old man put down his tools and took a deep breath.
He knew that, next, it was his turn, and he closed his eyes.
Then, ghostly figures appeared beside him, some of which could be seen from the local local chronicles, and some were statues worshipped in some nearby temples.
The old man's body began to twist and gradually fold, and the sound of bone fracture and flesh tearing continued to be heard. He showed pain on his face and wanted to scream, but he couldn't.
Moreover, this process was very slow, as if the local ghosts were deliberately delaying this punishment for a longer and longer.
When everything was settled, a group of naughty children ran over outside. One of them picked up the incense in his hand and lit the cannon. He threw it to the heights by chance and fell into the window on the second floor.
"Bang!"
The cannon fired.
The children were afraid that their owner would come out to curse, so they immediately scattered.
The fire started to burn from the second floor and extended to the first and third floors.
When the neighbors and the people in the shops around him saw the fire, they immediately came to put out the fire, but somehow, I heard this woman talk about the broken roller shutter door a few days ago, but she couldn't even open it no matter how she kicked or smashed it.
I can only take some water and try to splash it in the bottom.
The fire was strong, and the fire snake spit out from the window, which was very scary.
But the fire was strange, and it was only burned in this building. The neighbors on both sides thought they would be unavoidable, but they were shocked to find that the fire was not delayed at all.
After the fire truck arrived, it put out the fire and the rolling shutter door collapsed.
But the inside was already burned to a distorted state, two on the first floor and three on the second floor, and only a few human figures could be vaguely seen.
Even firefighters with rich experience were shocked by the strange fire. Logically, it was not a factory that stored special materials. Ordinary houses caught fire and would never burn like this.
The onlookers were also talking about it. Such stories may become a travesty story of the family that has been circulating in the local people for ten or twenty years or even longer.
Only the elderly people gathered together and muttered:
"What kind of sinful debt did this family make?"
...
"Can it really work?"
"I didn't believe it at first, but Lao Qiu said that he invited his mother here and talked to him. You don't know what Lao Qiu is like. He is very smart, so he is that so
It is easy to be deceived, so this mother-in-law should be really capable."
"Then try."
The couple carried gifts and red seals in their pockets, and walked along the village path to a local witch's house.
After entering the yard, I found that the doors and windows of the house were all closed and there was no one to see.
"Is anyone at home?"
"Hey, hello, is anyone at home?"
The couple shouted for a long time but did not receive a response.
The husband put his face on the living room door and looked inside through the dark glass window in the middle.
At this moment, his eyes widened, and the living room was filled with the split corpses of the family.
The message received by his eyes was too shocked, which caused his mind to be before he could react. Just as his eyes moved up, he saw a witch in a big red dress sitting on the altar of the living room, pulling his intestines into his mouth.
Plug for nibbling.
"ah!.!"
...
"Don't worry about me, run, run!"
The man gave up his cousin who was smashed by a stern in tears and began to run outside the tomb.
Originally, I came to the deep mountains today just to find an ancient tomb and find some materials. After calculating before, I came, and this trip was straightforward.
But who knew that a group of people first encountered the sudden mountain miasma, and the compass pointer failed again. Fortunately, they were not ordinary characters. After overcoming these difficulties, they finally found the cemetery.
The cemetery is not dangerous, it is just a small tomb of a landlord in the Qing Dynasty.
With their configuration, this kind of tomb is really easy to capture.
But who knew that after going down, the corridor first became extremely long, and when I encountered a ghost hit the wall, then I heard the ghost roar, and then all kinds of incredible crises occurred frequently.
They just came to the landlord's small tomb to "borrow" something, but the formation they encountered was even more dangerous than those big tombs!
Even though the group of people were very good at it, they still died one after another. When the last person ran out of the grave, they had just cried out and saw dense and gloomy figures standing around the cave entrance.
He was desperate.
...
At the door of the old house, the old lady with soles in her shoes sat on a small chair and died.
Her eyes were picked out with a needle and placed in a sewing box.
Her family, from old to young, from men to women, all those who approached and called her silently sat down beside her, took the needle from her hand, picked down her eyes, and put them in the needle thread.
box.
