Article [-] of Maoshan Gate Regulations:
All my people in Maoshan,

You can touch acupuncture points but not steal graves, you can subdue demons but not refine your soul;
You can marry a wife but not be greedy for adultery, you can earn a living but not collect money.

Some people cultivate Maoshan to survive, some people practice magic to save their lives, some people go astray just to survive, and some people break their vows because of helplessness.

What kind of path a person's life can take, sometimes it is destined, sometimes it is involuntary, sometimes it is willful, and sometimes it is self-inflicted.

Chen Ziyang's original name should be Chen Ziyang. His father gave him this name because he hoped that his son would be able to feel proud and proud, and even set sail for a long voyage. At the very least, he would be able to leave this small valley that was not too poor. .

But the irony is that the policeman who registered Chen Ziyang when he was full moon mistakenly wrote Chen Ziyang as "Chen Ziyang".At that time, whether it was because of a clerical error by the policeman or because the policeman's notes were too sloppy and was read wrong, no one knows now, but since then, the name on Chen Ziyang's account is called Chen Ziyang.

Chen Ziyang's family members are also relatively lenient, and they are too lazy to correct their mistakes.But who would have thought that this one-word difference would actually help Chen Ziyang by mistake!
Chen Ziyang was born in the same year as Sprite in 82.The first time he knew there were ghosts in this world was when he was just in the first grade of elementary school.

That year, Chen Ziyang, who was seven years old, suffered from a strange disease. He usually behaved like a normal person without any abnormal symptoms, but whenever he ate, he would vomit.Before eating, Chen Ziyang was still very hungry and had a good appetite, but soon after eating, Chen Ziyang would vomit out everything he ate.

This is the case after every meal, throwing up once after eating.At first, Chen Ziyang's parents didn't take it seriously, thinking it was a child with a stomach flu or something, it was normal, and it would be fine if he took some medicine.But after a few days, Chen Ziyang's condition not only did not improve, but worsened, and he would vomit even after eating a piece of fruit or drinking some water. Only then did his parents start to worry.

Chen Ziyang's mother took Chen Ziyang to see several hospitals in the town and city.But it turned out that Chen Ziyang had to take more pills before meals than he ate, and the infusion of fluids in the bottle was more than Chen Ziyang drank every day.Five or six days passed in the blink of an eye, and Chen Ziyang's condition showed no sign of improvement.

The pills are also vomited after eating, and the number of pills spit out is no less than that of eating.Seeing Chen Ziyang losing weight day by day, vomiting weakly every day, not knowing whether he was sick or hungry with a sallow face, Chen Ziyang's mother was anxious and cried secretly under the bed every night.

Chen Ziyang's father, Chen Nianzhong, sees the mother and son like this, and he is also worried every day, and he is not in the mood to work every day at work. There is only such a single child in the family, who can not feel distressed?The point is that the feeling of helplessness that can't be helped is really uncomfortable.

Chen Nianzhong's colleague Lao Li saw that Chen Nianzhong was out of his mind when he was working, so he inquired about Chen Ziyang's condition from Chen Nianzhong, and suggested to Chen Nianzhong: If the treatment has not worked for so long, could it be a real illness?Since the real disease cannot be cured, let Chen Nianzhong take Chen Ziyang to see the "virtual disease".

Deficiency disease and real disease are the sayings in Chen Ziyang's hometown.Real diseases refer to real diseases, while virtual diseases are those "diseases" that cannot be seen or touched, ranging from being frightened by a child to being haunted by ghosts, and provoking some unclean things are all virtual diseases. category of disease.

Chen Nianzhong had heard about deficiency diseases before. Chen Ziyang was frightened a few times when he was young. Sometimes he would cry for no reason, and he couldn’t be coaxed well. Sometimes his eyes were blind when he was sleeping. The method is to close it tightly. Although the person is asleep, his eyes are still open a crack. At that time, he asked the old lady from the neighbor's house to call him.

Could it be that Chen Ziyang vomited after eating it now?Chen Nianzhong didn't really believe in ghosts and gods at first, but after another thought, he went to so many hospitals, including pediatrics and gastroenterology doctors, but it didn't help. Maybe it's just a sickness?Anyway, other methods have not cured it, so let the dead horse treat it as a living horse doctor, try it.

So Chen Nianzhong asked Lao Li about people who could see the disease.That night, Chen Nianzhong took Chen Ziyang to a bungalow at the address that Lao Li said.

When Chen Ziyang entered the room, he smelled the smell of braised saury all over the room.An old lady with white hair was eating the last bites of rice from a bowl.Seeing Chen Nianzhong and Chen Ziyang coming in, the old lady hurriedly ate up the rice in the bowl.Receive the guests.

After Chen Nianzhong finished explaining his intentions, the old lady nodded, then grabbed Chen Ziyang's left hand, and pinched both sides of the third knuckle of Chen Ziyang's left middle finger with her thumb and index finger.After touching for a while, it changed to touching the right hand.

After touching both hands for a while, the old lady nodded without saying a word. She got up and filled half a bowl of water in the outer room, and took three red chopsticks. After returning to the room and putting the bowl on the window sill, the old lady The wife put the three chopsticks together, with the chopsticks facing up, and inserted the three chopsticks into the water in the bowl.

After Chen Ziyang saw the old lady take her hands away, the three chopsticks stood upright in the water without moving!

"This child has recruited something. Look, the chopsticks are sticky and they stood up immediately. It's not a day or two after recruiting. Let's give it away first. It's too long to give it away. Burn more paper money."

After finishing speaking, the old lady lit three incense sticks, put the incense sticks on a stack of burnt paper, circled Chen Ziyang with the burnt paper three times, muttered something, and asked Chen Nianzhong to take it to the crossroads at the door. The mouth burned the paper.After Chen Nianzhong came back, the old lady told him to go back and wait for two days to see if he couldn't come back.Chen Nianzhong threw down the five yuan and took Chen Ziyang home.

Chen Ziyang felt hungry on the way back from the old lady's house. As soon as he got home, Chen Ziyang ate two of the four big buns made by Chen Ziyang's mother in a short time.It's delicious, and the most important thing is that Chen Ziyang didn't vomit after eating, and he ate it.

This Coke broke Mama Chen.The illness that tormented the whole family for half a month was finally cured. For this reason, Mother Chen specially asked Chen Nianzhong to lead her to buy some fruits for the old lady the next day.

From that day on, Chen Ziyang's illness was completely cured, and from that day on, Chen Ziyang's family formed an indissoluble bond with these invisible things.

Although Chen Ziyang cured his deficiency illness, Mother Chen wondered why the children in other families would be frightened at most and could just scream, but why they would make such a fuss when they came to Chen Ziyang's place.So Chen's mother took Chen Ziyang's horoscope and visited the fortune tellers around, whether they were good or bad, whether they were really good at horoscopes or cheating money.

After looking around the ten miles and eight towns, all the fortune tellers were surprisingly consistent in their caliber.Everyone agrees that Chen Ziyang is extremely soft!Soft to the limit.

The horoscope is a person's birthday horoscope, including the year, month, day, hour, and gender of the person's birth.The year, month, and day are represented by the two characters of ten heavenly stems and twelve earthly branches, the yang stem paired with the yang stem, and the yin stem paired with the yin branch, plus a word for hour and a word for man and woman, which is a total of eight characters. words.

When Chen's mother repeated the original words of the fortune tellers, Chen Ziyang only remembered that he was born in the sea, which was better in the water, but the month, day and hour of his birth belonged to the five elements of fire.Etc., etc……

After talking for a long time, Mother Chen told Chen Ziyang that, to sum it up, Chen Ziyang was willing to recruit those dirty things because of his weak character, so Chen Ziyang was not allowed to go out at night, and he had to bring Mother Chen to beg him all the time. A whole lot of amulets etc. A whole lot of requests.

Chen Ziyang, who is still young, doesn't quite understand the meaning, but he knows that after listening to these words and following them, he won't be as sick as he was a few days ago, and these requirements are not too harsh, so Chen Ziyang followed suit.

He did as he did, but Chen Ziyang found that doing so had no effect. From then on, besides school and home, the place Chen Ziyang visited most was the old lady's house with white hair.Apart from rice, Chen Ziyang's family consumes the most burning paper.

The so-called long-term "illness" became a doctor, so that later, when Chen Ziyang felt uncomfortable, he knew whether he should go to the hospital or go to the intersection to burn paper, and he didn't need to go to the old lady's house at all.Chen Nianzhong was more familiar with the sayings when he burned the paper than his own name.

Chen Ziyang's family of three, whenever they talked about these things with outsiders, they would either be ruthlessly ridiculed or looked down upon with contempt. It's not a good feeling to be called stupid. His horoscope is so hard, and he never provokes those things.

Since I don't provoke others, I naturally don't believe it.So slowly the family of three didn't say much in front of outsiders.

Chen Ziyang's attitude towards these things has also gone through a big change from the initial resistance to the later helplessness, until the final calm acceptance.

Maybe the old Chen family was born with a big heart, as if Chen Nianzhong didn't correct Chen Ziyang's name when he knew it was wrong, Chen Ziyang is also resigned to his fate now.Whenever he felt upset for no reason, or felt powerless for no reason, felt lazy and didn't want to move, Chen Ziyang knew that something was looking for him again.

So Chen Ziyang told his father, and Chen Nianzhong used the method he learned from the white-headed old lady to give Chen Ziyang a gift.If it doesn't work once, give it twice. Fortunately, burning paper is very cheap, or just like this, the old Chen's family would have to be burned poorly.

According to the white-haired old lady, Chen Ziyang recruited all kinds of strange things. There were old relatives from his own family that he knew, and there were lonely ghosts from outside that he didn't know. Don't refuse, if they want to go up, they go up.

Sometimes Chen Ziyang also doubted the authenticity of these things, but the real experience of sending them away again and again made him have to believe it.So Chen Ziyang never went to the grave since he was a child, and he didn't walk at night. He hung all kinds of evil things on his body and at home, and tried to avoid contact with those things, but the effect was minimal.
