Six Ways of Fumo

Chapter 2291 Bring down the well (big chapter)
The old man was also puzzled and asked: "Master Tian, ​​I actually don't understand much about my son. Why don't you ask my son?"

"Your son's soul is not good enough. If he stays outside for a long time, his soul will be gone." Zuo Chenghuang stepped forward to explain and said:
"You know what it means to have your soul scattered, right? That means you can't be reincarnated in the future. So, I can only ask you about this. If you really don't know, we can only ask your son. In other words, unless you really have to, don't bother him!"

This Zuo Chenghuang has always done things poorly, but this time he said it well.

When the old man's family heard this, they all nodded.

The Ghost Taoist Master raised his hand and said, "Tell me what you know."

"Well, there are two dead people in the village, but they were before us. Do you want to tell us?" The old man thought for a while and asked.

Ghost Taoist Master nodded: "Tell me, let's start with the beginning."

The old man thought for a while, sat down opposite the Ghost Taoist Master, and said:

"The family of Lao Wu at the west end of the village was the first to have trouble. Lao Wu has an only son, Wu Yousan, nicknamed Wu Laosan, 26 years old. Wu Laosan is a carpenter. He works in the next village these days. He goes out early and stays late. But on the night of the [-]th of the first lunar month, the family never waited for him to come back, so Lao Wu went out to look for him.

As soon as he went out, Lao Wu found a dark figure lying not far in front of his door.Lao Wu turned on the light and stepped forward to take a look, only to see that the man was wearing Wu Laosan's clothes and carrying Wu Laosan's carpenter's tools, but it was... a mummy! "

The old man was talking, and his family members were all nodding.

The Ghost Taoist Master also nodded and asked: "There is a second one, how did he die?"

"The second one is called Cheng Sibao. He is in his 20s. He is a bachelor and has only one uncle in the village. Cheng Sibao died on his bed and became a mummy," the old man said.

"Then, it's your son?" Ghost Daoist asked.

The old man cried, tears streaming down his face, and he was choked and speechless.

After a long time, the old man calmed down and then said: "My son also died on the road. That night, he sent his girlfriend home, but... he could not come back and died in the field in front of the village. "

The Ghost Taoist Master nodded and said, "Take me to the fields in front of the village to have a look."

The old man followed his advice, wiped away his tears, led the ghost priest and Zuo Chenghuang out, and walked towards the front of the village.

This place is not far from Chentangao village, less than a mile.

The field the old man was talking about was a corn field.At this time, the corn has also grown, as tall as one person.

The Ghost Daoist took a look, and in the corn field, a lot of corn was spoiled and fell to the ground.

"When your son was found, was he wearing clothes or not?" Ghost Master asked.

"They are all wearing clothes, but the clothes are a little messy," the old man said.

The Ghost Taoist Master looked around, nodded and said, "I understand, you go back first, and I will go find you when I have a clue."

"Okay, okay, my name is Chen Wang. If you want to see me, come anytime." The old man said.

The ghost priest nodded and let Chen Wang go by himself.

Seeing Chen Wang walking away, Zuo Chenghuang asked the ghost Taoist priest: "Taoist priest... no no, celestial master, celestial master, what do you think?"

"What do you think? Xiao Chen's soul is here, if you just ask, you will know? Leave the dead man's soul aside, let me guess the riddle." The ghost priest stared.

Zuo Chenghuang's face turned red and he smiled.

In the cornfield, the ghost priest released Xiao Chen's soul.

When they brought Xiao Chen back, Zuo Chenghuang made an explanation on the way. So when Xiao Chen knew that the Chenghuang and the Heavenly Master were here, he was very excited and aggrieved, so he knelt down and kowtowed.

"No need to be polite, tell me, Xiao Chen, how did you die?" Ghost Taoist Master said.

"Tianshi, City God... I sent my girlfriend home that night. My mother-in-law was very polite and left me to eat a bowl of noodles, so I came back a little late." Xiao Chen knelt on the ground, lamenting: "I'm back At that time, I encountered a heavy fog. So, in a daze, as if I was drunk, I took a sidetrack and came to this field..."

Ghost Road sighed and asked: "Then, you met a beautiful woman?"

"Tianshi, how do you know?" Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "I met a beautiful girl. She was sitting on the ridge of the field. She said she had a sprained leg while walking and wanted my help. I stepped forward to help her. She, who knows, who knows..."

Probably because he was talking about shyness, Xiao Chen raised his head and glanced at the Ghost Priest, unable to speak any further.

"Who knows what's wrong? Tell me." Zuo Chenghuang couldn't help being anxious when he heard this juncture, and urged him.

"Hehe... Who knew that the big girl's feet would weaken and her body would fall into your arms, right?" Ghost Taoist Master asked.

"Yes, yes..." Xiao Chen looked ashamed and stammered: "The girl fell on me. I, I was confused for a moment, so I hugged her and fell to the ground, and... Kissed..."

The Ghost Taoist hummed and counted silently with his fingers.

"Then what?" Zuo Chenghuang asked again, but he was really a little unserious.This guy's desire for voyeurism is too strong. He should be sent to Zuochenghuang, the island country, to be responsible for pornography.

Xiao Chen looked sad and said:

"Then, I felt a tingling sensation at the base of my tongue, like being pricked by a needle. I wanted to push the girl away, but the girl held me and wouldn't let go. Later, my strength disappeared little by little, and I finally fainted. .When the soul wakes up, it has already walked on the road in a daze, and is almost at the gate of hell..."

Zuo Chenghuang didn't hear the exciting plot he wanted to hear. He was very disappointed and sighed softly.

The Ghost Taoist Master nodded and said: "It seems that the thing sucked all the blood from your tongue from the base of your tongue. I already understand. I will put you into the paper talisman first and wait for the monster catching to be completed before sending you away." Go and be reincarnated.”

Xiao Chen kowtowed and said: "Uncle Tianshi, if I catch that big girl, you must help me ask why she wants to kill me even though she has no grievances!?"

"Okay, I can promise you this." Ghost Taoist Master waved his hand, flew out a paper talisman, and collected Xiao Chen.

After collecting Xiao Chen's soul, Ghost Taoist Master and Zuo Chenghuang walked out of the cornfield.

"Master Tian, ​​this blood-sucking thing can't be a ghost, right? I haven't heard that there are such blood-sucking ghosts in China." Zuo Chenghuang asked as he walked.

The ghost priest did not answer, but asked: "Have you ever smelled a faint fishy smell in the cornfield?"

"No." Zuo Chenghuang sniffed and said, "The body of the little god has a sense of taste and smell that is not as good as ordinary people. Even if there is any smell here, I can't smell it."

The Ghost Taoist Master nodded and said, "I already know what is causing trouble, hehe, but I can only say it in front of the villagers."

Zuo Chenghuang was overjoyed and said: "The Taoist Master has a clever plan. Hehe, announce it in front of the villagers, better, better."

Let everyone know that only by catching the demon in person can you better promote your own Chenghuang Temple and bring incense to yourself. Why wouldn't Zuo Chenghuang do it?
The two of them walked back to the village, one behind the other.

First of all, I went to the home of the old man Chen Wang Chen, and let the old man take him to the other two to do ideological work and create momentum at the same time.

Soon, the whole village knew about it and gathered around.

As soon as Old Man Chen introduced them, everyone knew that this was the City God, and this was the Heavenly Master Zhang Daoling who had descended to earth.However, the country people didn't know how to call him, so they all called the ghost Taoist Master Celestial Master.

The ghost Taoist leader stood in the open space in front of the village, jumped on an erected stone roller, and said to everyone:

"Folks, I already know where the harmful monster is. But everyone must come with me to catch this thing! If you don't catch it, the men in the village will die in the future, and they will be younger. Yes, they will all die!"

Everyone in the village was frightened and angry, saying, "Master Tianshi, what do you say, we will follow you!"

Everyone saw with their own eyes that three villagers died in the village, and they were naturally angry. They were also worried that this fate would befall them, so they were very determined to get rid of the demon.

Although the villagers may be timid, there are people who lead the team and everyone forms a team together, so the number of people makes them more courageous.

The ghost priest nodded and said, "We will take everyone to catch the demon, but we also need some things."

"Whatever you need, Master Tianshi, please tell me!"

"Okay, I need three waterwheels." Ghost Taoist Master said.

At that time, the economy was very underdeveloped. Farmers did not have water pumps in their homes, only water trucks.

"There are plenty of waterwheels. There are as many waterwheels as you need," said the villagers.

The Ghost Taoist Master nodded and said: "Okay, let's carry the water truck here, and then select twelve big men to take charge of the water truck. The rest of the people will follow and bring big shovels to make preparations."

The villagers agreed and prepared their own preparations.

Not long after, all three water trucks were delivered.There are more than 100 strong men, all carrying large shovels on standby.

At that time, there was no wave of migrant workers, so there were all young and middle-aged people in the village, so there were so many people.

The ghost Taoist leader pointed to the east end of the village and said, "Take the guys and follow me!"

The villagers were so excited that they followed Ghost Taoist Master and Zuo Chenghuang with great momentum.

About half a mile from the head of the village, there is a well.

This well is also a public water well for the whole village.

The conditions at that time were limited. There was no running water, and no family had the financial resources to dig their own well.Therefore, the whole village works together to build such a well.Moreover, this well was left many years ago. In terms of history, it is more than 100 years old.

When he arrived at the well, Taoist Ghost Master stopped and said, "Okay, we're here."

Everyone looked at each other, looking left and right, but didn't see anything.

The Ghost Daoist pointed to the mouth of the well and said, "My Heavenly Master and the City God have already done the calculations and found out that the evil monster is in the well!"

"In the well?" Everyone was shocked.

Because everyone has to come to fetch water every day. Think about it, there is a harmful monster hiding in the well. How terrible is it?
The ghost priest took a look and said:

"Everyone comes to fetch water every day, and the well water is like a mirror, reflecting everyone's faces. So the monster here can remember the appearance of each of you. Once she runs away, she will come back to you in the future. The one who settles the score. So today, we must catch her and not let her go!"

"Master Tianshi, what do you want to do to catch this monster? Do you want to go down the well?" asked the villagers.

The ghost Taoist shook his head and said: "We can't get rid of him if we go down into the well. So, we don't want to go down. Listen to me, as long as all the water in this well is cleaned, the monster will not be able to hide." Already!"

"Ah? How did the well water come to the car?" Everyone was stunned and started talking about it.

The surface of the well water is at least three or four feet away from the well mouth.

Moreover, the wellhead is not big, and the waterwheel cannot be put down at all.

In addition, the waterwheel gantries in the past were of standard size, only eight feet long.

All told, at least six or seven waterwheels are needed to extend from the wellhead to the underground.

This kind of traffic is more difficult than Jiang Taigong fishing!

The villagers circled around the mouth of the well, looked at the waterwheel, looked at Taoist Ghost and Zuo Chenghuang, and shook their heads, saying that they couldn't do it.

The Ghost Taoist smiled and said nothing, allowing everyone to speculate and discuss.

"Uncle Tianshi, how can the water in this well be brought up by the car?" Finally, old man Chen Wang couldn't help it anymore and asked on behalf of everyone.

The Ghost Taoist Master then pointed at Zuo Chenghuang and said with a smile: "This man is the City God. He is in charge of everything here. He has a way to let you bring up the water truck."

Zuo Chenghuang wanted to be famous, and Taoist Ghost didn't want to steal the limelight, so he pushed Zuo Chenghuang forward.

Everyone looked at Zuo Chenghuang, waiting for him to speak.

Zuo Chenghuang finally waited for this opportunity to show off, coughed and walked forward, walked around the well three times, and said: "Fellow folks, if you drive directly into the water, you will definitely not be able to get up. But, I can Pull this well over and make it tilt, so that the water in the well is level with the mouth of the well!"

Bring down the well?
The entire villagers in Chentang'ao were dumbfounded, and there was another discussion everywhere.

"The well is not a bucket, how can it be overthrown?"

"That's right. In all my life, this is the first time I've heard of someone who can topple a well."

"The well is really destroyed. Will our future water intake be affected?"

For a time, everyone was talking and chattering.

Zuo Chenghuang raised his hand and waved it around: "Don't make any noise, everyone, listen to me, listen to me."

Everyone gradually quieted down, all looking at Zuo Chenghuang.

"Turning down the well requires the strength of nine oxen and two tigers, and ordinary people will definitely not be able to." Zuo Chenghuang smiled triumphantly and said:

"But I, the City God, can do it. Let's dig a square pond to the east of the well. After the well is overturned, smash the well altar and the well water will flow into the pond. Your water truck will be stuck in the pond. Traffic water. If everyone refuels, it will take about half a day to drain the well water here."

Everyone was dubious, but they all nodded together.

Zuo Chenghuang drew a rectangular figure on the east side of the wellhead, five feet away from the wellhead, and asked everyone to dig the reservoir.
