  The bricklayer's surname was Zhu, and he had a bit of culture. He somewhat resembled an emperor from the Ming dynasty, but he didn't have the fate of an emperor. This person was considered a good man; how to put it, his heart was quite warm, and he didn't have any strong personal opinions. His craftsmanship was passable, and in life, he wasn't a malicious person. People like him wouldn't cause trouble after death, but still, he was relatively young, around 40 years old, and just went like that. Even after becoming a corpse, he was stripped of his clothes three times; this matter was indeed done excessively by the Kong family.

  Because he died in the back mountain, and there were ready-made things in the yard, it was not difficult for Cha Wenbin to do this method. The red and green paper was cut into two pieces of clothing, and some straw was taken from the ground and strung into two scarecrows with a stick. Each scarecrow wore paper clothes, standing on both sides of the highway outside the yard.

  Zhu Youwen was a ghost from another family, and all the sunny houses had door gods, so this new ghost couldn't enter the Kong old mansion's gate, so he kept wandering outside. The son of the Kong old man was still lying on the sickbed in the inner room at this time, and that guy was more seriously ill than those people seen by Cha Wenbin in Zhuangyuan Village, with the largest abscess as big as an egg. Little Kong lay naked on the bed, without a single thread on his body, and couldn't even wear clothes, his body looked like someone had poured boiling water over him from head to toe, it was indeed quite miserable to look at. Little Kong's wife wiped away tears every day, and could only use cotton swabs dipped in medicinal liquid to apply to him, the blue ink provided by the hospital, all over his body was blue, Little Kong looked like a blue elf, still with big blisters all over his body.

  Now Xiao Kong was also carried out, a cool bed was set up on the big road. In the past, every household in Zhejiang had this thing, made of bamboo, and it was cool to sleep on it in summer. There was a layer of straw on the bed, and no cotton quilt could be put on it, otherwise it would stick to his wound. Xiao Kong's body was okay, he was conscious and clear-headed despite being ill, his mouth opening and closing as he stared at Cha Wenbin with raised eyebrows, Cha Wenbin didn't even bother to look at him, but actually had a sentence in his heart for a long time: You got what you deserved, it serves you right!

  Also following along was Xia Qiushi, a comrade who happened to be passing by and got caught up in the excitement. He sat on a stool, and Huaiyi had stuffed a copper basin into his arms, which was filled with children's urine collected from nearby households.

  Two paper men faced each other, with a small hole and Old Xia in between. Each of the four sides had a lit candle. Cha Wenbin was at the northwest position, which was where Zhu Youwen's soul left his body when he died as a bricklayer. On the ground at that position was placed a bamboo tray, on which were two bowls of inverted rice, some offerings, and in the rice on either side were three incense sticks already lit.

  Cha Wenbin took out the two eggs and pressed them into the rice, then had someone carry Zhu Youwen's wife out. This guy was lively, and Hongcun hadn't seen such a big show in decades. Not only them, but another group of people were also arranged to work. Cha Wenbin saw that Kong Laojia had a group of opera performers, with three playing Zhong Kui alone. Good fellow, this was ready-made, more convenient than scattering beans and inserting red flags to shout for heavenly soldiers and generals. He let them ambush in the courtyard, waiting for his signal.

  Then all the lights were turned off, and the unrelated people all retreated to the yard. That night, the weather was indeed bad, and suddenly it started to blow strongly in the middle of the night, making a "whistling" sound. As soon as the people dispersed and the lights went out, only two candles remained flickering, and someone was still lying on the bed. This scene scared the widow half to death.

  Actually, women are generally timid. This widow was afraid of her husband when he was alive and at home, so she would call relatives to come over and keep her company in shifts. Tonight, they left her on the road as bait, that guy, this woman just opened her mouth with a loud "ah" as soon as the lights went out.

  "Ah!" At this shout, Cha Wenbin was afraid she would run wildly, and hurriedly went forward to comfort her: "Sister, don't be afraid, I'm here, it's okay."

  That woman is also desperately seeking medical attention, finally catching a live person, tightly grasping Zhang Wenbin's arm, and her tone of voice is trembling: "Little brother, do you think Old Zhu will really come? Didn't he die?"

  Seeing the fear in her eyes, he asked: "Do you want to see him? Old Zhu left in a hurry and didn't leave any instructions. Do you...?"

  That woman, upon hearing this, immediately blew her top. "Ahh!" she let out another loud cry, this time even louder than before. It's said that at that moment, half of the lights in Hong Village suddenly lit up. The next day, people who didn't know what had happened were asking around everywhere to find out which family's woman had committed a great sin the night before.

  She's not done yet, this woman still wants to run, with both hands holding the sedan chair and wanting to rush out. Cha Wenbin couldn't tolerate her anymore, first hugging her, but the rural women who worked in the fields had strength that was not to be underestimated. Little Cha comrade was young and malnourished, and was slapped on the cheek by the woman, Cha Wenbin suddenly felt dizzy and lost direction.

  Riding on the momentum, the woman rushed out of the sedan chair like a fierce tiger descending a mountain, not caring about anything, including taboos. Wherever there were people, she charged towards them. The people in Kong Lao's household had just heard the commotion and opened their doors to see the woman rushing over like a madman, while Cha Wenbin was shouting: "Stop her, stop her!"

  At this moment, it's still useful for oneself to take charge. The fat guy rushed out like a bear, and that woman collided with him in an instant, just like a fire star colliding with the earth. Two huge bodies "crashed" together, and the fat guy tightly hugged the woman's waist, which was as thick as a large bucket. The woman didn't dare to tremble either, and she started scratching the fat guy's body with her black fingernails, leaving several bloody marks. With each scratch, the fat guy let out a miserable cry like a slaughtered pig. After several rounds, it seemed that the fat guy was about to surrender when Ye Qiu appeared at the critical moment.

  He was like a ghost, quickly passing through the crowd, so fast that many people didn't even see where he came from. A knife-hand strike accurately hit the woman's neck, and the fat man suddenly felt that what he was holding in his hands had become a lump of meat, which was getting heavier and heavier.

  The woman was knocked unconscious, and Ye Qiuke ignored the murmurs in the crowd. There were also people who knew Zhu Youwen's family here, and a voice began to emerge.

  "How can you hit people?! Isn't she pitiful enough?!" "Where did these few hairy kids come from, I'll beat them up!"

  Yes, things in the countryside are just so difficult to handle, seemingly simple yet complicated. Those mouths, those human relationships, those connections, and those trivial matters after dinner and tea, these are what have constructed China's village culture for thousands of years. Some men had already begun to get restless, holding their tools, with bare arms, spitting foam from their mouths, just at this moment when things were about to get out of control, Xia Laoliu stepped forward again.

  "Listen, everyone, I know these kids. They're just trying to make things easier for us. Old Zhu is actually a classmate of mine, and we get along fine. His wife is like a younger sister to me. I'm sure these kids are all good-hearted, they're just a bit anxious. I guarantee with my life that nothing will happen to her tonight."

  "Sixth Master, you... " As soon as Xia Laoliu opened his mouth, those people had to temporarily suppress their anger. After all, in Hong Village, there were only a few people who could make decisions with just one word, and Sixth Master was one of them.

  After a small storm, the woman was pulled back into the sedan chair. Ye Qiu retreated silently without saying a word. This man never argued or defended himself. He wouldn't say that if this woman lost control and something unexpected happened again, who would be responsible?

  To prevent any further accidents and to give everyone an explanation, after comforting her, Zhang Wenbin secretly stuck a talisman on the woman's back. In secret, he quietly chanted an incantation at the woman, known as the "Quiet Heart Incantation": "The Supreme Tai Star, responding to changes without stopping. Driving out evil and binding demons, protecting life and body; wisdom clear and pure, heart and spirit at peace; three souls forever, no loss of spirit, the Supreme Old Lord's urgent command!"

  That symbol is even more effective, actually it's a symbol that Zhang Wenbin secretly learned. If Ma Suifeng finds out, she will definitely teach him a lesson. This symbol is called "Soul Capture" and also known as "Listening Symbol". Don't think that this thing doesn't exist in the world, some people may have been tricked into revealing their passwords by someone who has used this tactic.

  The creator of this talisman was a high-ranking member of the Qingcheng Sect, with the Daoist name "Mulin Zhenren". Mulin was also an extremely talented Daoist, but his mind was not focused on the classics of the Qingcheng Sect. Instead, he liked to study strange and unusual things, because Mulin loved to gamble.

  This guy is a gambler and has bad luck, losing nine out of ten times. Every time he comes down the mountain, he loses everything and returns with nothing. Once, he even lost the sword given to him by his master. Mu Lian didn't regret it but instead wanted to find a way to win. To say that this guy is a genius, when he was locked in the scripture library to reflect on his mistakes, he actually figured out the "Soul Capture" technique from a method left behind by Zhang Tian Shi that controls people's souls.

  The person who uses this symbol only needs to stick it on the other person's body when they are not prepared, and within half an hour, you can do whatever you want. After the experiment was successful, Mu Lian took the symbol down the mountain to gamble again, and he won every time, killing everyone in his way. However, this matter was soon discovered by the sect, and he was caught and almost beaten to death. But the "soul-capturing" technique he left behind was still recorded in a book and considered one of the forbidden techniques of Qingcheng, strictly prohibited for disciples to learn.

  It so happened that one year, the great Ling Zhengyang's ancestor visited Qingcheng Mountain. This guy wasn't a good person, and after being discovered, he randomly grabbed a few books, among which was a classic that recorded that forbidden technique. However, Ling Zhengyang also felt that if this technique were to be used by evil people, it would be a great disaster. Originally, he had planned to burn it, but he liked collecting things to prove that all the famous mountains and Taoist temples were just small inns that he could enter or leave at will. So this thing was kept until later generations, until the era of Ma Suifeng's "three no-care", when other children would sneak a peek at "Jin Ping Mei", but Cha Tong would sneak a peek at these ancestral line-bound books.
