Warlock Notes

Chapter 2 The Haunted House (2)

And there used to be such an old carpenter in our village. His nephew was decorating the room. He heard that he could "Luban Shu" and did not invite him to do the work. Two young carpenters were hired to do the work.

One day, when the carpenter was working, the old man went upstairs to look around and then went back.The carpenter didn't care either.After the house was renovated, the nephew moved in.Soon, the nephew went out to do business.When his wife was sleeping in the room at night, as long as she turned off the light, she saw a big butterfly fluttering in front of the bed, and when the light was on, there was nothing.

How to do it?I had to call my husband!
After my husband came back, it really was like this.Puzzled!Someone suggested that they go somewhere and ask God.It is said that there was a newly established god in our neighboring village at that time, and it was very spiritual.They took the advice and went to ask.The god there told them that there is something on the ceiling of your house.You dig out a certain board, and there is a colored paper butterfly on it, and it will be fine if you take it down.

After the young couple returned home, they dug down the plank as they asked God when they asked God, and there was indeed a paper butterfly on the beam.After taking it off, go ask the two carpenters.The carpenter swears that he did not do such a thing.The young couple asked them again, who had been here.They recalled that when your old uncle came, he only went in to have a look and then left.

The young couple immediately went to question the old uncle.At first the old uncle refused to admit it, saying no.The little nephew started scolding, who...

The old man thought, do you dare to scold me in front of me?Watch me mess with you again.As a result, bystanders saw his uncle's lips move, and then his nephew fell to the ground, foaming at the mouth.His nephew's wife hurried to ask the one who asked God what to do.The other party answered her: Grab a handful of incense, burn it up, kneel under the sky, and say the name of his old uncle in the sky, and keep calling, and he will be fine.

My nephew's wife did so, and it really did!

Uncle is out of luck now!Being scolded by his young nephew's wife for being "incomplete", the child is fine, and the old uncle's ability also failed on the spot, and it is useless again.

Afterwards, in our village and other nearby villages, anyone who hired this old carpenter to build a house will have their beams replaced, a total of more than 190 houses!
This story is well-founded. Although the carpenter in the story did not exist long ago when I was sensible, it must be the story of my village, so I firmly believe it.

Although I am not superstitious about ghosts and gods, I have a strong belief in Luban, because I have learned from old people since I was a child that in ancient times, carpentry represented the highest skill among the three religions and nine streams, because in the past, houses were mainly built with wooden structures. Therefore, The ancient carpenter was actually an architect, a combination of artist and engineer.Back then, carpenters were like Confucianists who preached everywhere, traveling around to get jobs.This kind of work is not like the current migrant workers, who are at the lowest level of society.

Carpenter was a very respected profession in ancient times. Generally, when building a house, the owner would treat the carpenter with good wine and food. He was afraid that if the service was not good enough, the carpenter would do something wrong when erecting the beams, making the structure of the house unstable and turning into a haunted house.

There was also a legend at that time that carpenters often traveled around alone, just in case, they had skills to defend themselves, the most amazing of which was the "Book of Luban".

"Book of Luban" is not about building houses, but a wonderful book about spells and spells!It is divided into two volumes. The first volume focuses on rectification and healing, while the second volume focuses on sorcery and harm.

The secret "Book of Luban" is said to have penetrating content and many spells. This system of Luban method has been strictly prohibited for a long time!People in the world who study "Book of Lu Ban" must account for the words "poor", "young", "solitary", and "disabled", so it is also called "missing one".It is also because of this that the world regards the Luban method as a "absolute method", which is daunting!
Therefore, when the owner builds a house, he does not dare to neglect the carpenter, because the carpenter of the new era no longer needs to endanger the stability of the house structurally. , the people living in the house will surely suffer disasters as the mantra says.As a result, the carpenter was reduced from a noble architect to a warlock, and everyone feared him.

However, I also heard from old people that learning this Luban method is extremely harmful to oneself, because the Luban method is a "absolute method".

The so-called "absolute method" refers to the method that will never be born, that is, if you practice this method, as long as you have completed it, you will definitely have no descendants, no matter whether you have offspring before or after you practice.Even if you had many children, none of them survived.Because of this, there are many books on the title page of the second volume of "Book of Luban" with the words "Those who read this book will die if they do it, and if they don't do it, they will die!".In our place, no one dares to read "Book of Luban" indiscriminately.

It is precisely because there are no descendants who practice this method, so this kind of people are called "one-generation people" here, which means that they have no ancestors and no descendants, and they are single.In fact, it is easy to understand the fact that the Luban law is unprecedented.An old man in my village once said: "Spells and Taoism, stealing the secrets of heaven, are evil by the heavens, and those who practice them will be hindered!" If the sky does it, the sky will condemn it.Therefore, those who study the Fa will always suffer losses.Either no future, or no life, or no wealth, or no salary, to name a few.In layman's terms, since you have stolen the opportunity of heaven and earth, you have to pay the price.This is why most of the quacks are blind, deaf and dumb.

Regardless of whether it is true or not, in short, this kind of person is really not optimistic in my heart.

Thinking of all these things, I had to shake my head and smiled wryly. This was really a false alarm. Thinking about that craftsman is really hateful, it really scared me half to death these two days.I thought it was really haunted, but it turned out that it was mostly caused by the damn clay figurines.So I took the clay figurine out, and threw it out of the window as if to relieve my hatred, and it fell to pieces.

After closing the window, my heart felt more at ease, and I straightened my hair in front of the mirror.But at this moment, I suddenly found that the door had opened at some point...

I remember very clearly, because I was afraid, I closed the door tightly when I entered the house, so... who opened the door?

At this moment, my hand that combed my hair stopped, because I saw another "person" besides myself in the mirror!
She, wearing a white dress, with long hair, covering her face, revealing a pair of red eyes, was standing behind me, with a pair of hands with long nails, shriveled like dry branches, resting on my shoulders , and an ethereal voice came: "If you hadn't thrown away that clay Buddha, I really wouldn't be able to enter your room."

This time I was really terrified, I shuddered so hard that the comb fell to the ground...

Is it really a hell?Because of the influence of being suspicious two days ago, such an intuition jumped out of my mind.

I wiped my eyes hastily, this time it was no longer a hallucination, because it no longer disappeared in a blink of an eye, but was slowly drifting over from behind me!

Yes, it is definitely floating, I can see it very clearly.Because she couldn't see her feet in the mirror at all, or she didn't have feet at all, and her lower body was floating in the air transparently, and she sneered coldly at me...

"Ghost..." After reacting from the shock, I yelled out in fright!

How dare I look back at her, let's not talk about her frightening look floating in the air, just the words she said penetrated my body like ice cubes, from the head to the soles of the feet!
I couldn't understand it in my heart, I did hit something dirty.I also regret that I shouldn't have thrown away that fiendish-looking clay bodhisattva at the beginning. That clay bodhisattva is not an evil thing that harms people, it is clearly used to suppress evil spirits!

Maybe it was because my scream was sudden, or maybe it was too loud, but the female ghost paused for a while.And I just seized such a loophole, turned around and ran behind her in a hurry...

But I'm a human, and her mother is a ghost. When I was about to rush to the door, I saw a white shadow flash, and she floated in front of me and blocked the door!Her cold sneer came again in her ears: "It's not that easy to run away, Jie Jie..."

I shuddered, screamed again in fright, and then jumped out when I saw an exit...

But as soon as the person jumped out of the room, I was completely frightened, and my heart was completely cold, because the exit I found in a panic was a window, and it was the window on the fifth floor...

Jumping from a height of nearly 20 meters on the fifth floor, I knew that I would die this time without even thinking about it.Immediately, sadness welled up, I was only in my twenties, and I still had too many things to do, I didn't expect to die in such an inexplicable way today, I couldn't help but feel sad...
