Chapter 4 The Underworld House
Following Mo Dashan into the yard, I saw that the eyes of everyone in the yard were on him, especially the Taoist Qingmei, who was also looking at him at this time. Mo He knew that it was time to show his feelings at this time.
"Hello, village chief, grandpa Qi, and uncle Zhang..."
Standing beside Mo Dashan, Mo He was very sweet-mouthed and greeted the elders present one by one. Only Taoist Qingmei was left, he hesitated for a moment, and finally shouted, "Hello Grandpa Taoist!"
For most people, they are always happy to see the well-behaved and sensible juniors. Mo He's actions immediately make people feel good about it.
"This child is really good!" Master Qingmei looked at Mo He and praised him again, then turned around and walked out of the yard under the leadership of the village chief.
"Hey!" After Taoist Qingmei left, Mo Dashan sighed with a frown. Even with Taoist Qingmei's promise, looking at the five-year-old child who was about to be infected with those filthy souls made him feel uneasy.
When Mo Dashan thought about this, he suddenly felt a little angry when he looked at Mo He's eyes. Why did the child, who was usually very sensible, run to the jujube tree by chance today? This happened to happen.
But at this time he was a little angry, and now that things have come to this, there is nothing he can do.
"Since you are all here, go in and kowtow to your third master!" As a junior, Mo He has come here now, and he should go in and kowtow to you for reason.
Mo He was very well-behaved at this time. He followed Mo Dashan's instructions and went in and kowtowed honestly, making the adults around him feel that this child is very sensible.
Especially the family of the Third Master's family took out a few tooth candies and stuffed them into Mo He's hands. This is a rare product. At least Mo He has only eaten it once after five years of coming to this world.
"I was actually given candy by the adults!" Mo He held a few tooth candies in his hand, and a innocent smile appeared on his face, but in his heart, he was very depressed now.
In the blink of an eye, it was dusk and sunset. Seeing that the sun was setting west and was about to set off, a loud cry suddenly sounded in the yard of the Third Master's house. Then he saw Mo He wearing a small piece of clothing and a lantern made of white paper in his hand, and walked out of the yard of the Third Master's house first.
Beside Mo He was Taoist Qingmei holding a sword in one hand and a small seal in the other hand. Behind were eight strong men, carrying a coffin together, and behind were people holding other miscellaneous items, as well as a team of mourning.
A group of people came to a place about a mile outside the village. After arriving here, several strong men put the coffin into the tomb that had been dug long ago, and then arranged the other debris and offerings he brought.
At this time, the sun was about to set completely. Taoist Qingmei reached out and touched Mo He's head, and spoke to Mo He: "Children, go and put this first soil cultivation."
Hearing this, Mo He went up and squatted down, grabbed a handful of soil from the next pile of soil with his tender hands and threw it into the tomb. At the same time, he thought to himself, "Let me grow up as soon as possible, I'm always touched by people's heads, I don't want to be faced!"
After Mo He put the first soil into the soil, the others around him immediately took action and filled the tomb in a few moments.
Taoist Qingmei stepped forward and spoke loudly: "Don't have fields for the villagers in Xiahegou. They have died for 83 years. They are kind and famous, and have good deeds. They are willing to open the underworld and enjoy peace, and I will give you the imperial edict!"
The last word exited, the small seal in Taoist Qingmei's hand suddenly flew out of his hand, turned into a large seal the size of a stone mill, and fell on the land in front of him.
This scene stunned the people around him, and Mo He was also very shocked, but while shocked, Mo He was also full of yearning.
Looking at the shocking gazes of the people around him, Taoist Qingmei stretched out his hand and the millstone-sized seal turned back into a small seal and flew back into his hand. Then, he saw a piece of white paper appearing out of thin air in Taoist Qingmei's hand. He shook it gently with his hand and saw that the piece of white paper turned into a small paper house, with doors, windows and rooms, all of which looked very delicate.
"go!"
Zhong shouted lightly, and Taoist Master Qingmei threw the paper house in his hand forward, and saw it burning quickly.
Just as the paper house was burning, Mo He found that there seemed to be an illusion in front of him again, and he vaguely saw a house appearing on the grave of the Third Master. The style of this house was clearly an enlarged version of the burning paper house.
This time Mo He was very sure that what he saw was definitely not an illusion.
Just when Mo He was still a little stunned, he heard Taoist Master Qingmei say to him again: "Tonger, put your lantern in front of the grave, and then call your third master over and tell his children and grandchildren to build a new home for him!"
When Mo He heard this, he looked back at Taoist Qingmei. Seeing him looking at him with a smile, Mo He thought for a while, stepped forward and put down the lantern that had been holding in his hand, and then shouted softly.
"San Master, come quickly, your children and grandchildren have built a new home for you! San Master, come quickly...!"
Mo He screamed three times in a row, and then suddenly felt a hint of coolness coming from his head. He turned his head and saw that there was a figure next to him.
The figure was covered with a faint golden light, and the light was very weak. He was looking at himself with a smile. When he looked at his face, he looked exactly the same as the third master who Mo He had seen several times, except that there was a mysterious talisman seal at the center of his eyebrows.
"Third Master!" Mo He called out subconsciously, and at the same time he couldn't help feeling a little scared. After living for two lives, this was the first time he had seen a real ghost.
The third master touched Mo He's head with a gratified smile on his face, then turned his head and knelt down at Taoist Qingmei, his mouth moved, as if he was saying something, but Mo He could not hear any sound.
Taoist Qingmei seemed to understand and said expressionlessly: "You have good character before your lifetime and have good virtues to protect you after your death. You should not suffer from the pain of wind and rain. This is what you deserve, go!"
He kowtowed to Taoist Qingmei again, the third master stood up and disappeared.
Next, the villagers started burning paper and spreading paper money. When it was completely dark, everyone packed up their things and turned back to the village.
On the way back, Mo Dashan came to Mo He nervously and kept asking Mo He if he felt uncomfortable in his body. The situation was not until Master Qingmei, who was walking in front, could not listen. He turned around and said to Mo Dashan: "I have said before that helping the deceased lead the way this time will not harm the child at all, but will have some benefits. In the future, he will be protected by his ancestors and will protect him from minor illnesses and disasters."
Seeing Taoist Qingmei say this again, Mo Dashan was completely relieved. While thanking Taoist Qingmei repeatedly, a smile finally appeared on his face.
Not only will my son not have any trouble, but he will also have the blessing of his ancestors in the future and will not be disturbed by minor illnesses and disasters. This is a great thing.
You should know that in such an ancient world, there is no doctor around Xiahegou Village. I have to endure any minor illnesses on weekdays. When I really can’t stand it, I went to the town to see a doctor. As long as the medicine is a little more expensive, ordinary farmers can’t afford it. Some children die because of illness.
Looking at Mo Dashan's smirk, the people around him also cast envious eyes. Many people thought in their hearts that if they had known this was the case, they would have called their children over.
After returning to the village, Mo Dashan was about to take Mo He home, but suddenly he was stopped by Taoist Qingmei.
"I will visit your house tomorrow morning. If you have something to discuss, please get up early and wait." After saying that, I glanced at Mo He again, then turned around and left with the village chief.
"This, Taoist priest is going to my house tomorrow?" Mo Dashan felt a little confused when he heard that Taoist priest was coming to his house tomorrow, but he didn't say what was going on, and at the same time he felt a little uneasy. However, he did not dare to call Taoist priest Qingmei, so he had to go back like this.
When he returned home, it was completely dark. Mo Dashan told his wife what happened during the day and said that Taoist Qingmei was coming tomorrow. As a result, after telling his wife about the incident, his wife immediately began to feel frightened.
"Master, tell me, why did the Taoist priest come to our house? Will there be anything bad at our house? Will it be...?" When he said this, he turned his head and looked at Mo He beside him.
"No, Taoist priest told me today that this time my son will lead the way for the third uncle. This time, it will not only be harmful, but also beneficial. There is no need to worry about minor illnesses and disasters in the future. There should be something else." Mo Dashan was also a little worried, but he still comforted his wife.
As for Mo He who was pretending to be asleep, he was a little excited. Tomorrow morning, it is very likely that it was his own opportunity. If everything is really as I guessed, then this is the beginning of my own entering a magical world.
On that night, the three of the Mo He family slept very uneasy. In the middle of the night, Mo He's mother got up several times and stuffed Mo He's quilt. Her father Mo Dashan also turned over several times.
The next morning, a rooster crowed and announced the dawn of the new day. My mother got up early and began to pack up the breakfast for the whole family.
Because the Taoist priest was coming this morning, the food of Mo He family today was much better than usual, and even after the meal was prepared, the whole family did not move their chopsticks and were waiting for Taoist Qingmei to come.
