Chapter 4 Taoist Statue(1/2)
[]
The lights were dim and the taxi stopped and flashed.
The driver's face turned pale and he looked straight ahead.
I've seen many strange people and things.
But this scene in front of you is too cunning
How could anyone walk upside down?
Could it be that the face turned backward?
"Hello"
"Hello!"
"Go away! Why are you still standing there?"
In the middle of the night, the road was in a remote area. I swallowed and urged the driver not to stop.
After the driver reacted, he shivered and turned the steering wheel left. He kicked the accelerator and passed by the woman who was walking backwards.
At that moment of passing by.
I couldn't help but glance out of the car window.
The woman in white who walked upside down couldn't see her appearance clearly and her hair was blocking her.
The taxi continued to drive forward for a few minutes.
The driver slowed down and said in a trembling voice: "Did you see it just now? Am I dazzled?"
"I must have seen it, right?"
"I was scared to death just now."
"I can't run here twice a year. I've heard people in the circle tell you that in the Tudi Road in Fucun, every December, people walk upside down and stop the car. Some people have seen it and said
It's a woman, and some say it's an old man. I didn't believe it as a ghost story at all. It seems that we are tragic."
I looked down at the calendar in the car.
Today is December 17.
"Brother, are you listening?"
I said, listen, just say whatever you want to scare me.
"Hey, look, what am I scaring you?"
"Our San is now a grasshopper on the same car. We have hit us! I know a folk remedy for warding off evil spirits. I heard from my dad that it is very effective."
What folk remedy I said, what about your dad?
"My dad has been dead for almost thirty years. When he was alive, he told me that he should not panic when he was walking at night when he encountered ghosts and evil spirits. Just put a piece of Red Sun cloth in your pocket and it will be effective immediately!"
"Chirang Bu?" I frowned and asked what it was.
At this time, Brother Yu in the back seat interrupted and said, "Chirang cloth is bloody toilet paper."
"Bloody toilet paper? Is it a butt paper?"
Brother Yu said, Yunfeng, you are really a tiger, just think about it yourself.
As I talked to Brother Yu, I suddenly braked again, and this time I almost made my head hit the windshield.
I was about to get angry when I saw the driver's face change suddenly.
"It's coming again!"
There were no street lights on the dirt road leading to Fu Village. Seeing his face changing drastically, I looked forward.
I saw an old man and a child in front of me. The old and the young were all wearing white clothes.
These two are walking upside down
I don’t know if I can’t see the road clearly, but I saw the old man holding a red lantern in his hand and lit candles in the lantern. The atmosphere was inexplicably strange.
Seeing this, the driver couldn't hold the steering wheel with his hands trembling.
"It's over and we're hitting a ghost. We'll definitely get into a car accident later."
I was also afraid to see such a strange scene.
I said, Brother Yu, you have the blessing of Buddha, go down and take a look.
Brother Yu thought for a while and frowned, "Then I'll go down and take a look. You guys don't make a sound when you stay in the car."
Brother Yu said this and pushed the door and got out of the car and walked forward.
The child was still walking backwards step by step.
Brother Yu walked up to him and grabbed the child's clothes with one hand, and lifted the child up with force.
"Grandpa! Grandpa! Someone beat me! Someone beat me!"
The child was almost one meter away from the ground, his feet were hanging in the air, and he struggled yellingly.
This is still fucking able to talk!
This is a person!
I'm afraid of people!
I got out of the car and walked up to me, pointed at the old and young man and said angrily: "What are you doing? When is it? Do you want to scare people by picking up a lantern in the middle of the night?"
"Ouch! Misunderstanding!"
"Young man, please put my grandson down!"
The old man was dressed in white and looked like a dead person in his family wearing mourning clothes. He explained: "This is a ceremony for our Jiang family to worship ancestors. Every two years on December 16, we will hold a ceremony near Fu Village at night.
I can only park once and take the bus and walk all the way to the sulfuric acid factory.”
"ah?"
I was stunned for a few minutes before I realized that this was a ancestral worship ceremony!
Carrying a lantern, I walked backwards from Fucun to the old sulfuric acid factory! I could only stop once in the middle, which is too strange, it is unheard of
So to put it this way, the woman just now wanted to stop the car and go to the old sulfuric acid factory.
Brother Yu let go of his hand and put the child down. The child ran behind the old man like a frightened rabbit and hugged the old man.
I just feel strange. Why is there such an unheard-of-life way of worshiping ancestors in Shaanxi? This is my first time seeing you.
As I knew before, there were strange ways of worshiping ancestors, including those in Zunyi, hot and cold sacrifices, and the "Make" and "Da" held to save the dead. Some areas in Henan will put on coffins.
"Boiled chicken", digging a pit in front of the grave to make "bury dumplings", etc.
In addition, there are also some places where there are tree burials, ice burials, river burials, water cave burials, burials in jars, secondary burials, hanging coffin burials, etc.
I looked at the old man in front of me and asked suspiciously: "Dare you ask what dynasty and generation your ancestors are from?"
The old man shook his head: "This is inconvenient to reveal. This is just a special way for our Jiang family to worship ancestors. It's so late, where are you going?"
I said to go to Fu Village.
"Fucun?"
The old man said, "That happens to be right. We live in Jinzhan Village. Please give us a ride. Our Jiang family can only stop once on the way to worship our ancestors. Today I have broken the rules."
Seeing that I didn't say anything, the old man immediately touched his wallet from his pocket.
"I only have ten yuan, master, okay."
The taxi driver charged the old man ten yuan and turned to me and said, "Two bosses, they live in Jinzhan Village, just walk ten miles forward, just by the way."
I still have something to do, and I don’t want to share a car with this old man and child at all, but I can’t help but ask for it.
In the end, there was nothing I could do, so I said let's squeeze it.
When the old man was very happy to hear that I agreed to carpooling, he immediately took out his cell phone and called.
"Yuanyuan, come back soon. Today is not enough. I'm going to have a sacrifice tomorrow. I'll stop a car and send us back. Come here soon."
Not long after, I saw the woman in white with long hair walking upside down.
Without saying a word, she got into the back of the taxi and didn't talk to me.
The old man blew out the red lantern in his hand and sat in the front passenger seat with the child in his arms.
Brother Yu and I squeezed the woman in the middle, one by one.
There were so many people coming up at once, and this broken rental car was a little overwhelmed, and the exhaust pipe was like burning engine oil.
I was close to this woman.
I don't want to be next to her. She is dressed in white and her hair is like a female ghost.
I leaned hard towards the window, trying to keep my distance from her.
This woman is actually very young, probably about the same age as me. After getting in the car, she kept looking down and playing with her mobile phone.
