Chapter 60
"Young man is good, but you are a little reckless and have not thought too much. You came into this yard that has always been scared of talking. It was just because an old man died miserably. But do you know that the reason why that old man died was because he was too greedy and was so greedy that he even covets the things of dead people. You said, should he die?" the middle-aged man said with an expressionless face.
No expression is more terrifying than having expressions. Xinhao somehow felt a chill from his heart. It felt like a soldier saw the ultimate boss. Xinhao calmed down for a moment and then asked, "What do you mean is he stole your stuff?"
"Yes, I won't kill a good person, but I won't even think of any one who attacks my mansion." A whirlwind gradually formed beside the middle-aged man, and the whirlwind was getting bigger and bigger. Xin Hao hurriedly took a few steps back, and he felt the murderous intent in the whirlwind.
"That's it, I know, but if you have a big house like this, people will inevitably become greedy for this place. Why don't you leave this place and enter the samsara and be reborn in a good family in the next life?"
"Who doesn't want to? But I can't leave. I've been here for too long, so I'm one with this yard. Oh, I can't leave anymore. I'm also blamed me for being too stingy and I don't want to let go of this yard and the gold and silver treasures here when I die." He looked up at the sky, and the whirlwind beside him was smaller.
"Can you tell your story? Maybe, after you finish speaking, I can help you." Xinhao said tentatively. He knew that everything had a reason, and now the questions in his mind urgently need answers.
"Oh, it seems that I met a little guy who likes to listen to stories. Do you really want to listen to my story? It may be a bit long-winded and old-fashioned." The middle-aged man laughed, and the whirlwind around his body disappeared in an instant.
Xinhao knew that things had a turnaround, so he laughed a few times: "Uncle, I don't dare to brag about anything else. I listen to others tell stories, but I am the best. By the way, there is something to eat in our car. Should I come and have Erguotou?"
"Haha, you kid is an interesting person. OK, come to some bar. When I am alive, I love drinking the most." The middle-aged man laughed and sat on the ground. Several others also sat down together. Xinhao ran out to get the wine and some food and ran back quickly.
"Okay, little monkey, you let them hide first. It's not good to scare the guests." The middle-aged man waved his hand, and the dark shadows around him gradually disappeared. The little monkey also ran to the middle-aged man and sat down. The middle-aged man touched the little monkey's head with his hand: "Thank you for your hard work."
"What should be done." The little monkey rubbed his head against the middle-aged man, looking very intimate.
"Okay, let me tell my story." The middle-aged man took the wine bottle and didn't use any wine glass. He opened the bottle cap and poured wine into his mouth. Xinhao looked at it and couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Massive."
After about half a bottle, the middle-aged man put down the bottle of wine and wiped his mouth. Before Xinhao could say anything, the story began...
The middle-aged man named Lin Tong. He graduated from Tsinghua University in the last year of the War of Resistance. After graduation, he went to study in the United States. He waited until the eve of the liberation of New China before returning from overseas. After returning to China, he found a few good friends to start a business in Beijing. The business was getting more and more prosperous and the money was getting more and more. Suddenly one day, Lin Tong felt that making money had no meaning to him, so he handed over the company to his son, became a shopkeeper, and took his family to leave Beijing and find a good place to spend the rest of his life.
So he went everywhere to find places. It was a coincidence that on this day, Lin Tong met a fortune teller on the street on Qianmen Street in Beijing. He looked at the age of 20, wearing a yellow Taoist robe that was not matched with his age, and held a jade gui that ancient ministers took when they went to court. The jade gui was quite long. The young man raised his eyes and saw Lin Tong. His eyes lit up instantly, he waved to Lin Tong and shouted loudly. Lin Tong saw someone greeting him, and he was still a Taoist dressed as a Taoist priest. He walked forward curiously: "Young man, you call me?"
"Yes, I'm calling you. Why? There's so much money, there's so much money, but I don't want to retire. I have a good place. I don't know if you want it?" The young man didn't keep it in a silence and came up straight to the point.
"Oh, is that right? Then please give me a clear idea." Lin Tong heard the little Taoist priest in front of him say his current difficulties, and he couldn't help but feel curious about the little Taoist priest.
"There is a unique place that is unique, and the water dragon penetrates the chamber and gathers blessings. If you ask where the auspicious place is, there is a star in the northwest sky. Sitting in front of the head of the Vermillion Bird, and urging the head behind the Xuanwu." The young man smiled mysteriously and said a few words.
"Uh, brothers, you said this a bit too profound. I don't understand. Can you explain it if you suffer?" Lin Tong said in embarrassment. If he had to read the account book, he would definitely be fine, but if he asked him to think about the meaning of this poem, he would really not be able to do it.
"If you want to go by yourself, it will prove that you don't have the fate. Okay, I won't charge any more money, and there will be no future." After the young man finished speaking, he packed up the pavilion and left, leaving Lin Tong standing there frowning and guessing about the poetic fan.
Lin Tong went home while guessing. He had something to do when he went out, but he came back halfway. His wife saw her husband like this and knew that there was something wrong, but she didn't ask anything. She was afraid that after interrupting her husband's thoughts, she went to the kitchen to prepare dinner after preparing tea. Lin Tong sat in the room and thought about the meaning of these poems, and then she kept thinking about eating.
At the dinner table, the wife still looked frowning and felt a little distressed, and wanted to share the responsibility for her husband: "Lao Lin, are you hiding something from me? Why are you like this today?"
"Oh, it's probably useless to tell you. Today I was going out to do business, but a little Taoist priest stopped me halfway and said something I knew I was looking for a place to live. He said to me a lot of things I didn't know. I haven't thought about it for a long time, and I had no thoughts at all." Lin Tong shook his head, rubbed his temples, and thought too much, his head hurts.
"Tell me what the little Taoist priest said, what if I could explain it to you." Lin Tong's wife, like him, is also a graduate of Tsinghua University. The two met at school. At that time, Lin Tong's wife was a top student.
"Okay." Lin Tong thought about it carefully, and it was true that his wife might be able to solve this problem, so he told his wife everything he said to him.
After hearing this, my wife thought about it carefully: "The previous sentence should be an indication of the location, but there are rivers in many places in China. Then this poem can only be a hidden poem, that is, Hengshui. As for a star in the northwest, it is probably the northwest of Hengshui. The last sentence is the direction of the yard, it cannot be the south and north." After the wife said that, she frowned. Obviously something was wrong, but she couldn't think of it for a while.
"Oh, Shuzhen, you have done a lot of help, haha, I want to thank you very well." Lin Tong's frowning frowns and stretched out, holding his wife's hand, very unhappy. After dinner that day, he ordered people to go to Hengshui for inspection, especially in the northwest. The man came back in less than five days and took a bunch of photos, showing Lin Tong one by one, while explaining where this place is and how it is. Finally, he took out a photo: "Look at this picture, this was taken in a small village in the northwest corner of Hengshui. It is quite good. It can be said to be a good place for retirement. The transportation and communication here are a bit inconvenient. Look..."
"It's here. I'll send someone to go now, prepare the materials and start work immediately." Lin Tong was also confused now and asked people to start work without thinking about anything.
There is a kind of speed called China Speed. A three-entry courtyard house was built not long after. Lin Tong happily took his family and lived in. Naturally, his son stayed in Beijing to manage all the company's affairs. At the beginning, Lin Tong was very happy and could live a steadily life. Who knew that the good times would not last long. Something started to happen after only two days of comfort.
At first, there was always movement in the yard. Whenever I went out to see it, the sound disappeared. In the end, I couldn't buy a dog. Who knew that the dog had died without even humming the sound that night, without any external injuries. Since then, the plants and animals in the yard have died one after another. After these deaths, it was the turn of humans. The first one was the weak Shuzhen, who quietly left the world when she went to bed at night. When Lin Tong woke up in the morning, she found that his wife had passed away and she collapsed. She hugged the body and cried for three days and three nights. In the end, the servants at home moved the body away and buried him and helped him to bed to rest.
There were fewer and fewer people in the family, he was getting thinner and thinner, and in the end he was the only one left. On July 15th, Lin Tong unexpectedly got off the ground. No one helped him, and in fact no one would help him, because everyone was dead. After getting out of bed, he put on his clothes, opened the door and walked towards the main hall. He paused in the yard for a while in the middle, looked up at the sky. Today, the moon was very round, and there was a circle of moon halo around him. Looking around, all the stars were covered by clouds, and only the moon was as usual. Lin Tong nodded, smiled with relief, and walked into the main hall. When he pushed the door, he was stunned. All the corpses of his servants were hung on the beams of the main hall, with their faces ashen. I don’t know why, his eyes were wide open, and his tongue spit out a long stretch. "Oh, think about it, I should go with you too."
By chance, as soon as Lin Tong finished saying this, a rope that had been knotted was hanging down from the top. Lin Tong looked up and saw nothing. He smiled bitterly: "Oh, I'm leaving!" After that, he hung himself.
He originally thought that his life would be over, but who knew that when he opened his eyes, he found that he was still staying in the house. He turned around and looked back and realized that he had died, and now he was only his soul. As for why he had not rushed to reincarnation, he didn't know anything.
If you become a ghost, you will naturally see other ghosts. Lin Tong looked up again and saw an old man holding a rope and smiling embarrassedly at him. The rope in the old man's hand was the rope that Lin Tong hanged. Lin Tong was really amused and laughed. He floated up to the beam of the room and looked at the old man. The old man also looked at him, shouting sorry in his mouth.
This is the most embarrassing thing after a ghost kills people. And it is a suicide ghost. If you don’t have the qualifications to enter the cycle of reincarnation, you can only become a lonely ghost wandering in this world. If you see the ghost who once killed you, come forward and ask him: “Did you kill me before?” This guy will be embarrassed to death.
