Among the ten people who participated in the cold bench meeting, according to the regulations, the people from Mount Emei took the lead and were the first to form the Longmen Formation, while the non-scholars were the last to form the Longmen Formation.Of the eight people who were determined by lottery, six people have already cast lots and formed a dragon gate formation, and now only me and the poor Taoist priest are left.The two of us cast lots, and unfortunately I got the lottery, so I should be the one to set up the dragon gate array.But as I said long ago, when I participated in the cold bench meeting, I was an activist who listened to the Longmen formation, but not an activist who played the Longmen formation.Originally, I only brought 7 ears, but no mouth.Member Zhou—now he should be called Yan Geng Zhaizhu 7—was interrupted by Zen Master Yehu as soon as he said this.He said: "Didn't you just open your eyes and talk nonsense? Your nose? It's not a mouth under it. What is it? Besides, you were talking in Min's mouth just now."

Master Yan Geng Zhai immediately argued that I didn't bring the mouth of the Dragon Gate Array, but this mouth was brought to accompany the princes to drink cold tea.However, at this stage of the field, I can't slip even if I want to.I'll just make do with one. "So Yan Geng Zhaizhu began to arrange his family formation. The dragon gate formation I put up is called "The Story of Viewing Flowers".But the "viewing flowers" I'm talking about is not the "viewing flowers" you think.Your flower viewing is the flower of the Yang world, and my flower viewing is the flower of the Yincao.Alas, it's like saying a tongue twister, I can't explain it clearly, let me put it down, and you will understand.

This story happened thirty years ago.Thirty years is not a short time, but I still clearly remember that the back of that flower-watching woman and shit Wang Er leaning on a dog-beating stick and walking crookedly is still dangling in front of me dangle away.I still feel a deep sense of guilt when I think about it. I have been sensible since I was a child, and I know that there is a famous person in our country, a woman, called Shit Wang Er.It's very strange, why does she have to be called by such a strange name instead of other names?Migration of good things in the village once wanted to get to the bottom of it and justify her name, because Confucius said it. "It must be, the name is correct." "If the name is not correct, the words will not go well."But they have made many efforts, but still have no results, leaving only some idle guesses.

Some people say that her parents must have given her this name since she was a child. We country people are different from city people. City people only live "three dynasties" after they are born. They want to have a big banquet and give their children a dignified official name. Names, what do men call "Guodong", "Tingzhu", "Bimiao" or "Dragon" and "Feng" and so on, always after they grow up, they are determined to "be the king's pioneer" and have a great career What about women? Call them "Shu", "Liang", or "Lan" or "Gui" and other famous flowers and herbs to show that they are ladies from a famous family and everyone is a lady. It is different in our country Except for the children of landlords and lords with great fortune, most people are deeply afraid that their children will be born with serious crimes. If they grow up, quickly name the child, call it Gou Niu Zhu Monk, or even Stone Wood Sticks and the like, to show their contempt, and contemptible things are easy to grow up as usual. It is said that in this way, those X Chang Erye who come from the underworld to catch people in the world, the seductresses, think they are lowly animals , or inanimate things, if they are not within the scope of their authority to arrest people, they will not be taken away. Some people are afraid that they will not be secure, so they remove the "iron lock" and "hitch" and so on. Name, so it will be foolproof. In the sea of ​​disasters, human life is inferior to an ant, a grass, a stone and a piece of wood. I don’t think it’s strange to name my daughter, but some people don’t agree with this statement, saying that it’s okay to call it “dog”, why should it be called “shit”? In the countryside, who doesn’t know that dog urine is the smelliest It must be because her reputation is so bad that others gave her this nickname. But some people objected, saying, 1: If it was a nickname imposed on her by others, she would definitely correct it with her own name. Why is it clearly written "Daughter Wang Er, female" in Wang Baozhang's official household registration book?

In short, everyone has their own reasons, so wouldn't it be enough to ask her herself?No, I don’t know where the shit king has gone, and "I heard from the older generation that they asked me, and my answer is: I can call it whatever I want, why do you ask this?" Therefore, there is still no way to solve the problem of the name of Shit King Er. I am afraid that this will only be left to future "genealogy" experts to verify. When I think about it now, there is a woman standing in front of me. She is in her teens, her hair is disheveled, but she just put a bright wild flower in her bun, her face is half smile, half cry, not cry, Yin and Yang strange.The lips are always moving, as if talking, but there is no sound.Some people said that it was the baby talking to ghosts and gods.Because communicating with ghosts and gods is her profession—she is a professional "flower watcher".She put on a blouse that was strangely baggy, so long that it covered her knees.The sleeves were one foot and five feet wide, and half a foot wide embroidered lace was rolled on the edge of the placket and the oil head, and the brass buttons were shiny.This is the only diplomatic dress she wears when she goes to Yinzhou on behalf of people, and she doesn't usually wear it much.Her feet have never been bound, they are very wide, and she walks on the road with a patter, firm and stable.In the countryside at that time, it was the most unbearable for a woman not to bind her feet. Not to mention admonishing her into a three-inch golden lotus like a lady, at least wrapping a smaller one with a cloth strip.But Shit Wang Er got everyone's understanding, because she often walked from the yang world to the underworld, and the journey was said to be very long, and it was difficult to walk. Just rely on her two feet, how can I do without leaving a pair of big feet?

Machine, sail, machine, machine, look, the shit king is here, wearing a diplomatic dress, which one is he going to today?Oh, to Mrs. Fu's house next door.A group of us children followed behind her big feet and went to the courtyard of the royal family. "Shit king two, who are you going to see flowers in the underworld today?" We asked with great interest. Shit Wang Er did not answer as usual, and went her own way.We talked a lot, and even included some impolite words, she turned her head, looked at us fiercely, and sometimes said threateningly, "Shitou, you are disgusting, I will go to the Palace of the King of Hell and ask them to bring the birthday book. Tick ​​off your age."

This is indeed a great threat, because everyone has a name registered in the birthday book of Yan Zhudian, and the number of years to live is indicated under each name.When the time comes, the King of Hades will send the impermanent second master who wears a high hat to invite you.Check off the age, then you have to report to the Palace of the King of Hell immediately.But Shishi still followed her all the time, confident, because he was a Shishi, lifeless, ninety percent of the time his name could not be found in the birth book of the Palace of the Underworld.But Shitou's mother became nervous, because Shitou was a man, that's for sure.Shit Wang Er is fully aware that if she really wants to report to Hades, it will be bad.So Shitou's mother hurriedly yelled: "Shitou, you are dying." She pulled Shitou away violently.

We entered the courtyard of Wang's family with Shit Wang Er, and went straight to Aunt Wang's house.Aunt Wang's eldest daughter fell ill, her face was sallow and hungry, and she never recovered.Shit Wang Er concluded that this girl must have suffered some disaster in the flower tree in Yinlia, and she must go to "watch the flowers" to see if there is any way to improve the growth of the flower tree.Aunt Wang fully agrees.For every living person has a corresponding flowering tree in some garden in the underworld. All the good and bad fortune of the living are closely related to the prosperity and decline of this flower tree.Besides, Aunt Wang also wants to ask Shit Wang Er to visit her wife, Uncle Wang, when he goes to Yincao, to see how he is living there recently.Is there no money for smoking opium, so she can exchange some money for Uncle Wang.Now the matter of exchanging fruit is much easier because of the establishment of the "Mingguo Bank".Just go to the Minghuo shop on the street and buy some banknotes from the Mingguo Bank, write on Uncle Wang's name and burn it, and the money will arrive.Of course, the most reliable way is to write a money order from the Bank of the Underworld, give it to Shit Wang Er, and entrust her to hand it over to Uncle Wang, who will go to the Bank of the Underworld to collect the remittance.This business is also one of the important businesses that Shit King Er often handles.

When Aunt Wang saw Shit Wang Er coming, she received her sincerely, and told her to have a hearty lunch before she could go on her way.Shit king two is full and is going on the road.She offered a god wrapped in a red cloth on a square table, lit a pair of candles and a stick of incense, burned the paper money, respectfully kowtowed a few times, and muttered something, and then she was done and set off. almost continued.She was lying on the edge of a bed, with her feet bent, and a black scarf covering her head, hanging up to her chest.Shit Wang Er swings her feet back and forth, which is walking, and Shit Wang Er embarks on her long journey.

After a while, she arrived at the gate of hell.Ordinary people are most afraid of entering the gate of hell, but Gouyi Wang Er is very at ease. The bull-headed horse face guarding the gate of ghosts seems to be her old friend.She greeted them as soon as she arrived, and even cracked a small joke.The dog shit king Erhuo was probably answering the question from the ghost guard gate, "What? Have you eaten lunch yet?...Oh, I have." ...It's a serious matter. ...What? To buy road money? We come and go often, let's forget it this time. No, there are regulations? How much? ...Where do you want so much? "'

Looks like Shit King Two got into an argument with her friends.The ghost guarding the gate has to buy the road money according to the new regulations of the superiors. I'm tired, I don't have enough money for a bowl of tea..." Sitting next to her, Aunt Wang heard their argument completely. She was afraid that Shit Wang Er would not be able to get in, and she would miss a big deal, so she said: "Just give me as much as you need, and I will replenish it for you when you come back." The second dog shit king entered the gate of hell and arrived in the world of underworld. As she walked, she greeted people on the road (oh, it should be called a ghost), talking and laughing, just like country people walking on the road to the market. In the same way, sometimes she joked a few words with the familiar ghosts. "Ouch," the shit king 2 yelled, and stopped walking. "Why is the Naihe Bridge on this river being repaired? ... Transition boat? Well, just transition." So Shit Wang Er went to transition.The ferry was placed on Fang Xiao, a bowl filled with water, and a pair of Shiyu chopsticks and dog shit on it. Wang Er encountered a new problem on the ferry and had to pay for the ferry.Of course, she quickly calculated that she was very familiar with the ghost who pulled the ferry, so she would give less money.Aunt Wang promised to make up for her when she came back. Shit Wang Er really has a way, as soon as he enters the Yincao and the garden, he immediately finds the flower tree of the eldest daughter of the Wang family.The dog poop king turned around and observed for a while, and it turned out that there was an ant nest under the flower tree, and the ants were climbing up and down on the tree to make trouble. "Hmph, so you are the ones who are harming people." This is obviously the shit king talking to the ants.Suddenly, the second dog mechanic exclaimed again: "Ah, such a big insect is gnawing at the leaves, and some gaudy branches are so gaudy that there are only bare poles left." Mrs. Wang became nervous when she heard this. here.Aunt Wang asked Shit Wang Er: "Just help her catch the worms, and you can give me a little more money." It was the dog shit king who was negotiating, and she said, "Huh? You said you need potions to kill insects? You don't even have potions? ... Yes, you have them, and you want money? That's easy to say." So the shit king Er and the ghost in charge of the flower tree began to negotiate the price.I gave money again, and it was indispensable. The aunt promised in person that 0 would pay her back when she came.So everything was settled.The task of viewing flowers is completed. Now it's Shit Wang Er who is going to visit Uncle Wang, finally, Shit Wang Er has a lot of familiar ghosts, after three questions and two questions, he found Uncle Wang 3 Wang Ren saw the people from his hometown, so happy Luo, making out Talk to the shit king 2.Aunt Wang was listening, acting out of control, interrupting constantly, reporting on the situation at home and asking how her wife was doing recently.Shit king two are faithfully conveyed. "Hey? Lose a little weight? I'll exchange money for you, why don't you eat better.... 咹? Change a little more? Well, next time I'll exchange some more money for you. Clothes are rotten too? I'll bring you a new one...'' Aunt Wang agreed to everything. It's getting late, the sun is coming to the mountain.Strangely enough, the sun in the Yin Cao rises and sets at the same time as the sun in the yang world.Shit King Two said in Yincao, "The sun is on the mountain, I have to go back." When the dog shit king came back, of course he still walked, but this time it was faster than taking a car, and he didn't care about talking to the ghost soldiers on the road, so he went straight out of the gate of hell, and returned to the world after a while, to Aunt Wang's house. Home, Gou Shang Wang Er took off the black veil from his head, slowly opened his eyes, wiped the sweat on his face with a towel, and said. "It's so tiring from walking." Everyone asked her, but she didn't know what to say, and instead asked others, did she say anything. Aunt Wang knew that she had eaten, so she made up the money for her, and also brought out a new big shirt, asking her to go back to hear the secrets and take it with Uncle Wang by the way.The shit king both agreed to do so.As for whether it was done later, the adults didn't seem to pay much attention, but we dolls were very concerned.It was discovered that Uncle Wang's new long gown had been shortened and became the clothes worn by the dog on Wang Er.When Aunt Wang heard about it, she didn't dare to ask.Who dares to fight with ghosts, who is close friends with Wuchang Erye? Yes, it's us naughty dolls.We, a group of dolls, saw that Shit King Er came to Yincao, came and went freely, and heard her talk about the situation in Yincao. We always felt that the ghost gate, Naihe Bridge, and the Hall of Kings of Hell was a very interesting place.But we asked Shit Wang Er many times to take us to play, but she flatly refused.We are dissatisfied, and I want to make trouble with her, but when she is "off the hook", you can't touch her, if you touch her, there will be a big mess. Once, the dog duo Wang Er was "walking in the dark", a doll touched her, and she immediately fell to the ground, her eyes turned white, white foam came out at the mouth, her hands and feet kept twitching, howling, as if she was dying , so not afraid of people!She yelled: Oh, I can't come back now, what should I do? "The grown-ups were all panicked, and quickly knelt down to her confessor, begged her, and promised her to make a wish in the genitals, and once she was released, they would do so. Only then did she slowly close her eyes without shaking or screaming. I've got to see it." He stopped spitting out white foam.After a while, her chest began to move, her nostrils fluttered slightly, and she was considered to be angry.After a while, she seemed to wake up.When people asked her, she said she didn't know anything.Of course, our doll friend was pulled back by his dad and beat him up. From then on, no one dared to touch her when the second dog shit king was "off the hook".This caused our boss to be dissatisfied.Moreover, our doll and Shit Wang Er have a direct conflict of interest in the economy, and I have a deep feeling.Originally, my mother sometimes gave me a few pennies to buy europium cakes, but because my mother was very concerned about my flower tree Ronghu in Yincao, sometimes I asked Shit King Er to "view flowers" for me.And every time she always finds a lot of problems in my "flower tree", so my mother had to give the dog shit Wang Er the pocket money left for me.Even the "lucky money" I got from kowtowing to the elders during the Chinese New Year, which was stored with my mother, was taken away by the shit king.I was not happy, and gradually hated her, and other dolls were similar to me, and had a direct conflict of interest with Shit Wang Er.After a long time of grievances, we discussed how to get back at her.Of course he didn't dare to touch her, not because he was afraid that she would not come back to life, but because he was afraid that he would be beaten up by adults when he went back. There is a "brain tank" among us, Shi Shi, who is the oldest among us.Once he quietly told us that the dog shit king Erguanhua is fake, we asked him, how can we know it?He said: "One time the dog shit king was watching flowers at Aunt Li's house, and I peeked at the door. Aunt Li went to the stove house. She took advantage of the time when there was no one in the party room, and opened her eyes from the side of the black veil covering her head. Seeing no one around, I conveniently stuffed a small white cloth hanging next to Aunt Li's pillow into her arms." "One more time," added another doll. "I saw that she was looking at flowers, and a mosquito bit her hand. If it couldn't be cured, she rubbed it with her hands. Her soul was in her vagina. How could she know that the mosquito was biting her hand? Indeed. There is a flaw. It can be seen that she pretends to be dead as soon as she is touched. In fact, she belongs to a scorpion. Ignore her and can't die. We studied it several times, and we were afraid of being beaten by adults, so we still dared not touch her. Once, our "Zhi Tang" finally figured out a way. He said: "How to do this, Shit Wanger's family has a half-sized pig. She treats this pig like a baby, and is afraid that it will roll into the latrine. up.Let's go to Ludi to see if she's moving while she's in the middle of a "cast off". ""Right. "Everyone agrees. This time, she was watching flowers in the courtyard of the Zhang Family, which was very close to where she lived. We didn't even go to peek. When our scouts found out that she had indeed arrived in Yincao, she was watching other people's flowers in the garden. When the tree was talking long and short, the stone suddenly ran into the door, panting, and the elephant ran away, and shouted at the dog shit king two: "Dog shit king two, your pig fell into the latrine and was about to drown 1" "Huh?" Shit King Er yelled, grabbed the hijab off, stood up and ran to her house. "Hahahaha:" Both adults and children laughed, Shitou and we couldn't stand upright from laughing.The "grandmaid", who usually regards her viewing flowers as sacred and inviolable, also opened her mouth wide in surprise and was speechless. " Shit King Er ran home, and her pig was lying in the circle, and she realized that she had been fooled by the dolls. It was impossible for her to go back to Yincao to continue watching flowers. From then on, everyone knew that Shit King Er Guanhua was a trick to deceive people, and those old ladies would never trust Shit Wang Er to bring money or clothes to the underworld to give to Xiangji's relatives.Of course, they burned incense in the temple again, trying to find another way to establish a new connection with their relatives in the underworld.》 Shit Renji can't watch flowers, and she refuses to live by her honest labor, life is not easy.Of course, she actually has no land to plant, and she doesn't even have a hoe and sickle, the basic working tool. How can she work?Everyone has never seen her work in the fields, who would dare to give the land to her for waste?Seeing her sitting and eating, she couldn't keep earning. After a few days, I saw her pick up a basket containing two broken bowls and a dog-beating stick. Zhang's family went in and Li's went out to eat "hundreds of rice". I saw her dragging her increasingly convulsed body, running on the road for a bowl of cold rice, with two lifeless eyes embedded in 7's sallow face, the corners of which were full of sad tears, used in cold weather. A trembling voice in the wind was calling: "Good lords and ladies, please do me a favor." When I heard this voice, I was very sad. Sometimes she came to my door to beg for food, and I couldn't bear to look at her.I found her playing pranks on us dolls without competition, so that she could no longer live by "viewing flowers"-inflicting harm on giants without holding a grudge.She still looked at me so kindly and sympathetically, and said to me: "It's okay."With a pounding heart, I ruthlessly pressed a large bowl of rice into the broken bowl in her hand.She gave me a grateful look.I didn't even dare to turn my childish eyes directly to hers, so I turned my head away.I feel like I've committed a crime, but I don't know what crime I've committed.Sometimes, the doll we have, continues to joke with her and ask her. "Shit king 2, your pig fell into the latrine" She said weakly, "Don't tell jokes...don't..." Leaning on a dog-beating stick, she staggered away.As long as I hear a baby laughing contentedly, I almost want to go over and give him a slap in the face. I found that Shitou, like me, also tried to avoid face-to-face with Eryi, the shit king.I just met him, he always looks at the curvy back of the shit king, the disheveled gray hair, and the sight of the world with such melancholy eyes... He is as annoying as I am The other dolls taunted Shit Wang Er, and even expressed anger: "I'll beat you! How dare you bully others." I know what a violent shock it brought to his and my weak hearts, and what a huge trauma I suffered.We don't want to send people, but due to accidental mistakes, flattery and shit Wang Er fell into a tragic fate.She has cheated others, but isn't she also being treated unfairly and bullied by the whole world?Those old women who were deceived by her were fooled by her, but isn't she also being fooled by an inexplicable force?What exactly is this power?I couldn't figure it out when I was young, 'I've been troubled by this for a long time. After a while, the shit king is gone.Where she went, no one knows.Gradually, no one mentioned her anymore, and she disappeared from people's memory, like a yellow autumn leaf falling into the mud of autumn rain. But her back, leaning on a dog-beating stick, carrying a begging basket, and walking sideways, has often dangled in front of me for more than thirty years. After Yan Gengzhai finished his "Viewing Flowers", we were silent for a while.It seems that we still see the back of Shit King Er leaning on a dog-beating stick, carrying a begging basket, and walking past our alley.We meet such poor people every day in the streets and alleys.But after a while, the old woman's #yingjie disappeared, and the same back figure of the new old woman appeared before our eyes again. "Poor." Elder Balingye sighed. Our president, Lue Meishan, seemed to be moved by such a poor man, but Keji commented on Xian Geng Zhaizhu. It seemed that he wanted to ease the elephant's mood. He said: "It's a pity that you put on This Longmen team is too short, I didn't enjoy myself tonight." Other members of the bench club also echoed. "Yeah, it's a bit shorter." But Yan Geng Zhaizhu didn't say a word, he didn't know if he was sad enough for Meng Lang's behavior in his youth to hurt an innocent old woman, or because he could only put it this way. Ashamed of a short gantry formation?He lowered his head, it seemed that he could not be expected to say anything more, and everyone was about to leave.Suddenly, Zen Master Yehu spoke up: "Let me help Master Yan Geng set up another dragon gate formation. Last time I performed "The Story of No Smoking", and you said that I did it too "watery". Put one up as compensation. I still have time today, so I’ll make up for it in advance. The name of the Longmen Formation I put up is..." "Slow down, slow down." The villagers of the three families interrupted Zen Master Yehu and said, "There will be rules and regulations. If you don't have a new lottery, why should you cast it? Besides, you should listen to the order of the president first, Emeishan People said." Zen Master Yehu has a lot of Longmen formations in his belly, if he is not asked to show him, he will swell to death, and if he is swollen to death, he will report to the Palace of the King of Hell, and it will not be easy to account for it.I am afraid that in the palace of the king of hell, there is no one who was swollen to death by the dragon gate formation.Kome is asking him to put... how about it?" Everyone didn't say anything, Zen Master Yehu decided that everyone agreed, so he put it up. I'll just put up a short Longmen Formation.What Yan Geng Zhaizhu just showed was about a The tragic experience of a woman, let me also present the tragic experience of a woman.In our country of ethics and ethics, in a vast country, women bear much more humiliation and pain than men, and women are the ones who are overwhelmed by cannibalistic ethics.Born as a woman, she suffers the most. If a woman gives birth to a woman, she should suffer twice as much, being abused and discriminated against by men, and abused and discriminated against by women.and…… inside?Zen Master Hu was interrupted by a pawn in the mountain city: "You are really a Zen master wild fox, 'Put up the dragon gate array, it is boundless, it is confusing. Come up with such a big article about the truth of adults? Our club rules don’t talk about the words of adults.” "What, haven't I already put it up? This is the main text." Zen Master Yehu defended himself, "You don't want Sanying Wudi, oriental chieftains to talk too broadly, and don't make grand comments that adults are unhappy about. You can just tell the story exactly." The chairman of Mount Emei also knows the "wildness" of Zen Master Yehu , and gave him the necessary instructions in time. "Okay, okay, I'll try to give a brief overview." Zen Master Yehu held back his tongue like a wild horse, and continued to put it on: I want to give it a name for the Longmen Formation I set up. It can be called "Records of Birth" which happened many years ago.One summer, I went back to my hometown to enjoy the pastoral pleasure.The custom in our country is that every evening, when everyone comes back from the village, the women go back to the house to make dinner, and before the dinner is ready, the men gather freely to the earth temple outside the village to relax.This kind of earth temple is very small and is always built on the side of the road outside the village.A small stone house five or six feet high and nine feet square, in which are enshrined the kindly land-wives. ".Every year and festival, no matter rich or poor, every family will come to offer offerings to the two old people. If there is no cold daotou meat, they will always send a bowl of cold tofu.Outside the stone mansion of the Land Bodhisattva, there must be several stone benches besides the indispensable big yellow jue tree.For everyone to take a rest and wash the shells.If this is not a major invention, it can be regarded as a creation of the country people.With a place like the Earth Temple, it has become a place for men in the village to discuss matters, rest in the cool air, and exchange various legends.And no matter you are high or low, you can come and sit here, and it seems that you have to give up your seat according to your seniority.The kind of cool wind towel under the tree to enjoy the shade, everyone freely set up some old-fashioned Longmen formations, and exchanged smoking leaf tobacco or hookah with each other.And once there is indeed a shepherd boy walking slowly with the cow on the Tailu Road, and a shepherd boy is leading the cow to drink water by the stream or pond, the pastoral songs often come from there, under the golden light of the sun on the back of the mountain. Get up, it sounds intoxicating. According to the rules, everyone must rest here, smoke and chat. It wasn't until dark that the woman in the family had sent the children to call the "adult" to come home for dinner, and everyone slowly dispersed.Such a simple life can indeed wash away the vulgarity and bad smell we brought from the city.As for me, how long did it take you to get into the text?We are not here to listen to your description of life in Xanadu, we want to hear Chu Longmen Zhen, Master Yehu Chan, we want Longmen Zhen 1" The villagers of the three families interrupted Master Yehu's Yehu Zen almost unbearably. "Be quiet and don't be anxious, be safe and don't be impatient:" Zen Master Yehu comforted everyone without anger, "." This is really the main text. "So he continued to put it down. I went back to my hometown, and in the evening, I went to the Earth Temple to enjoy blessings.Everyone naturally welcomes my 0 family, because they say they are lonely in the countryside, and they really want to hear me set up some dragons in the city.It's a pleasure for me to set up a dragon's gate, and I readily agree to it. I picked up a few anecdotes at random, added fuel and jealousy, and made them smile. Quite a few are clever, and they can be regarded as saints in the countryside. While I was doing my best, it was already dark, and those older children said that their "adults" O's house had come for supper.I was also about to end, when suddenly a few special calls came from the direction of Longshuigou outside the lining: "Big Maoer, come back, Da Maoer, come back," this voice came from a woman's mouth, it was so miserable that it made people's hair stand on end.Especially when I thought that this sound came from the mass burial cemetery in Longshuigou, I felt even more horrified.I have known since I was a child that it is a place haunted by ghosts. There are many scary legends. It is not yet dark, and there is a whistling mountain wind from the valley. How dare you wander there and shout loudly at the end of the day? "Da Maoji, come back, Da Maoer, come back..." There was another miserable cry.All of a sudden, a faint fire light lit up, then lit up again, and then lit up again, like a will-o'-the-wisp.This adds to the horror. But I looked at the few people around, and it seemed that there was no sense of terror, just silent.I asked: "What kind of voice is this? Who is calling, what is it?" My uncle said with a sigh. "This is her calling the soul again: "Which her?" I asked. Uncle said, don't you like that mother in the house of Dachaomen?This is her. "Oh, Yao Niang 1 I have been away for decades, and most of the other people, even if they are close, can't remember most of them. Only this Yao Niang, I have not forgotten. When I mention her, I immediately evoke My childhood life. What an interesting and colorful childhood life 6 I still remember the scene of this Yaoniang marrying the uncle Yao's family of Dachaomen. There is nothing special about coming in a bridal sedan chair, paying homage, entering the bridal chamber, removing the hijab, and having a cup of wine.The most unforgettable thing for me is that a few friends and I rushed into the bridal chamber with everyone.When Uncle Yao took off the red hijab of this Yaoniang, he saw a very beautiful girl who was only sixteen or seventeen years old, buried her head shyly, but occasionally tilted her head to look at her Watch Uncle Yao and us kids, and get to know her new world.I think she is so young, at most as old as my sister.When having a cup of wine, she just refused to follow the rules in our country, drained her hand into the wine glass, put it into Uncle Yao's arm, and ate wine with Uncle Mo.However, this etiquette is an important etiquette to express the love of husband and wife to grow old, and it must not be omitted.So everyone laughed and made noise, squeezed the two of them together, corrected their postures, and finally drank a cup of wine.But this little girl doesn't know how to drink, so she can't drink it all in one gulp, and there is only half a glass of wine left.At this time, my uncle grabbed me, pushed me into Yaoniang's arms, and said to me: "Second child," please don't laugh, that's what we call children in the countryside, "you drink this glass of wine for Yaoniang, and my mother will give birth to a fat child like you next year." Before I came back to my senses, the small half glass of wine had already been poured into my mouth. The wine was really not good, it was hot from the mouth to the heart.But I'm a man, and I can't cry, or even laugh, on such occasions.This brings great joy to the wedding, which indicates that this little Yaoniang will give birth to a fat boy next year. Everyone laughed, even the bride.She even held me tightly in her arms.There is no doubt that she is also looking forward to having a boy in the first birth next year.This is not only for a woman, but also for Uncle Mo's family. From then on, Yao Niang was very kind to me, and I often went to Yao Niang's house to play.Every time Yao Niang would hold me into her arms, look left and right at me, very affectionate.If there is no candy for me, just make me a bowl of fried rice tea and put a piece of tang.I didn't know at that time that I often went to Yaoniang's house, which would help her to give birth to a boy.I just think that Mo Niang is pretty, has a kind personality, and the sugar and fried rice tea are really delicious. What makes me regret is that I often visited Yaoniang's house, but I didn't induce Yaoniang to give birth to a boy baby.Some people even later proved that it was precisely because I often appeared at Yaoniang's house that I gave birth to Niangniang. This is a very beautiful woman who is holding a baby and stands on the hall of Xianyin Temple. We often go there to see Seeing her, many young women were kowtowing to her.It is said that our dolls were all allocated by her, and they were brought to our home to give to our mother. A misunderstanding, thinking that Yaoniang already had a male doll, so she only gave her a female doll.In this way, it's a sin for me to eat Mommy's sugar and fried rice tea, and bring so much harm to Momiang. In short, Yaoniang only gave birth to a female doll in the second year.In a few more years, although I have already been banned from going to Yaoniang's house~: To be honest, Yaoniang still likes me and loves me—Yaoniang gave birth to a second child, which is still a girl doll.This mother-in-law was too ignorant of investigation, she kept sending baby girls to Momiang, and gave birth to five baby girls in a row, which is what everyone calls "a family with five thousand pieces of gold". . " 幺娘到了“家有五千金”的时候,已经变成了半老徐娘,那年轻少女的风韵,连一点痕迹也没有了。这也难怪她,不仅生五个女娃娃把她的身体拖垮了,而最重辜的没有给幺叔家生一个传宗接代的男娃娃,她的身价一落千丈。丈夫的伤心,邻居的冷落,特别是三房的那位二娘,甴于坐了两个儿子,使有权利在天井边对着幺叔家门口恶言恶语地奚落幺娘,使幺娘再也抬不起头来。她怎么能不很快老下去?幺叔家算是薄有田产,由于没有儿子继承,按族规迟早要落进么权和么娘都极不愿意的三娘家的小儿子手里去。这就叫幺娘感到对幺叔好似犯了猕夭大罪,'怎么好过?幺叔算是一个好男人,虽然恼火,却并不恶骂,也不痛打幺娘,这却引来幺娘更大的难受。她就对我说过4她希望幺叔痛打她,把她杀死,她才舒服。幺叔却只叫么娘吃素,念佛,赎取前世的冤孽,并且要她行善,把小钱散给叫花子或孤老女人,这样叫皇天开眼,命令送子娘娘送一个衷娃娃来。但是幺叔和幺娘都觉得他们的阴功还没有积够,怕再生下来的还是女娃娃,所以过了十几年,一直不敢再生娃娃。 我也多么盼望者么娘不生就罢,一生就生下一个男娃娃来吻。我也痛恨三房那位阴施倒阳,一天总算计着要得幺房绝产的三娘。我离开家乡以前,还陪么娘到观音讲去出送子娘娘烧香。我暗暗地作了祷告5并且想质问送子娘娘,为什么不把我留着,送给好心的幺娘,却提前把我送给已经有了两个哥哥的爸爸,妈妈呢? 我离开家门,再也没有回去过,以后的情况不知道,现在幺娘怎么落到了这样一个境地呢? 我家大伯没有回答,在座的别的人也没有回答。大伯叹一口气说:“今天晚了,回家吃夜饭去吧,明夭我摆给你听。” “大毛儿,你回来,大毛儿呀,你回来呀……”幺娘在龙水沟又喊起来,那象鬼火一般的灯火,忽明忽灭,从黑暗的山谷里吹来了凉风,使我打起冷战来。 第二天,我的火伯给我摆了幺娘生儿的故事。不知道是送子娘娘终亍被感功了,或者说不定我临走前去观音庙的祷告也起了一点作用,幺娘在十几年之后又怀了孕,而且生下一个男娃娃。 幺娘的肚子又大起来的消息,三房的三娘知道以后,着实不一安起来。她的如意算盘可能被产。她原本已经量定,么娘已经生了五个女儿,十儿年没有再怀孕,不会再生了,因此她的二儿子过继给么房,正大光明地得幺房的遗产,是肯定无疑的了,这是族规明白规定了的。谁知道么娘偏偏又怀了孕。这一来就有两个可能,如果生下来的是一个男娃娃,三娘得遗产的好梦就破灭了。于是三娘在外面放了谣言,头一个谣言是幺娘根本没有怀孕,也不可能再怀孕了,是幺娘用一个蒸箔贴在肚子上,罩上外衣装假的。接着又放出第二个谣言,说么娘就是怀了孕,也一定是找别的男人接的种,生下来的&—个龟儿子,没有资格得幺房的遗产。理由是这时幺叔已经出门去了。幺娘听了,生气得很,以至跑到三娘家里去,当着三娘把外衣解开,要三娘看个淸楚,到底是真是假。结果三娘只好以骂幺娘不顾羞耻,在人面前脱衣服;丟人现眼来收场。么娘气得和三娘扭打起来。么娘骂三娘没得良心,想得别人的绝产。幺娘申言,如果生的是女娃娃,她要叫么叔在外边把家产荡尽,也不给三娘留一分一厘遗产:我问大伯:幺娘怀孕的时候,幺叔果真不在家吗,“哪里的事。”大伯说,“都是三房那个喜欢播弄是非的三娘硬给戴的,那个女人,你还不晓得, 这倒是的,我们乡下就有这种多嘴婆,一天吃饱了就喜欢张家长李家短,吊起一个嘴巴胡说,唯恐天下不乱。这个三娘我是见识过的。她爱咒骂我们这些男娃娃,巴不得天下的男娃娃郎死绝了,只留下她生的两个男娃娃得绝产才好。 据大伯说,么叔出去,其实没有乱花多少钱,他是一个老好人,他总相信是他或者幺娘前世作了什么孽,所以不让他有儿子,活该绝后。因此他出门去,不走什么太码头,就;到这个庙那个庙里去烧香,纳根施,乞求神仙显灵,他还看准了一个座落在峨眉山深山里的小庙子,一当幺娘生下来的还是一个女娃娃时,便到这个小庙去出家当和尚,念一辈子的经来赎取自己的罪过,幺叔回来了,么娘快耍临产了,幺叔天天在家里烧香念经,幺娘也跟着念起经来。据大伯告评我,么叔么娘的诚心,硬是感动了菩萨,他们做梦,梦见送子娘娘抱一个男娃娃来了,果然,十月怀胎,一朝分娩,生下来一个儿子。多嘴婆三娘也不得不承认幺娘真的生了一个男娃娃。因为她在事前,害怕幺娘做假,去哪里弄一个男娃娃来顶替,她拿钱买通了接生婆,证明的确是幺娘亲生的,才没有说什么。 大伯说,幺叔亲眼得见幺娘生下来的是一个儿子,高兴得发了昏,满村子里乱跑,大声地叫:“菩萨有灵,我生了儿娃子了!”幺叔还告诉大伯说,儿子生下来的时候,他就是在那屋里,但见得满屋的红光闪现,无疑问是送子娘娘抱着儿子降临了。他当时赶忙跪了叩头。么娘呢,一听到生的是男娃娃,乌上就欢喜得昏死过去了,幸喜得么叔喊酲了她。据说幺娘一一过来,就问:“我的儿子呢?我的儿子呢?”她深怕哪个来抱跑了。她把也好的奶娃放在她的床头,一步也不叫抱开。 这一下么娘可算是扬眉吐气了。她决定不仅在儿子“洗三朝”〔孩子出生的第三天的早晨,要用温水洗一回)和命名的时候,要好好庆祝一番,吃满月酒更是要大办一下,亲戚邻里都要请到。至于么叔过去在这个庙那个庙许的愿,特别是么娘在观音庙送子娘娘面前许的愿耍还,那是自不用说的了。 冼三朝的仪式进行得很顺利,取名字却遇到难题,官名要等到上小学发蒙的时候,由老师来取,这倒好说。现在取什么小名,却各有不同看法,幺叔坚持要叫金贵,就是比金子还贵重。这倒合于么叔的看法。但是我家大伯却不主张取这么一个娇贵的名宇,怕孩子的命小担不起,容易被阎王派出的勾'魂使者无常二爷在巡游人间的时候发现了,随便把他勾走。大伯的意见,不如叫个贱名的好,石头木头这些名字不文雅,大狗小牛又太卑贱,不如叫他为“和尚”的好。因为神鬼对于内它们念经礼拜的和尚,历来比较客气。因此么叔也就让步了。世界上没有比自己的儿子能活出来长大成人,更为紧要的事了。幺娘却不赞成也不反对,她自己给儿子取名“大毛儿”,以便于她还可以“二毛”“三毛”地继续生下去。幺娘在幺叔面前突然身价十倍了,幺叔再也不敢忤她,而且“毛儿”也算是贱名,成活率高,便欣然问意叫“大毛儿”。 满月洒办得更是热闹。亲戚乡邻都来庆贺,惟独三娘没有来,只是派儿子送来了札物,坐罢席回去了。其实幺娘得了儿子,早已不计较过去的闲言恶语了。 幺娘坐月的时候,一直没有抱孩子出来见世面,她生怕儿子吹了风,伤了身体。只有吃满月洒的时候才抱出房来,让亲戚邻里看了一下,接受礼节性的称赞。可是就这么一下,却叫孩子受了风寒,害了一场小病。可就是这一场小病,就把幺娘和幺叔吓坏了。除开诮医生看病,吃中药外,幺叔还特地到观音庙去向送子娘娘叩汰,答应除开还原来许的愿以外,还新许给菩萨穿金衣的附加条件。孩子总算好了,,幺叔也答应了医生的劝告:不要把孩子关在房里,捂在枨子里养,要常常抱出去硒太阳吹风,呼吸新鲜空气。从此大毛儿就活鲜鲜地长了起来,一岁两岁三岁,越长越乖,么娘虽然再也养不出三毛二毛来,也很满意了,她的“五千金”一个接一个地长到十六'七岁,都嫁了出去,在家里只操这一个男娃娃的心了。 大毛儿虽说越长越乖,却也越长越娇。幺叔幺娘什么都将就他,要吃什么就给他做什么,人家说,恐怕只有夭鹅蛋没有吃了。幺娘一天把他背着抱着,不叫下地,要骑在么叔脖子上拉尿,幺叔也高兴,这就是他们的生命和希望嘛。 最奇怪的是这个三四岁的孩子,竟然抽起鸦片烟来。原因是这孩子出麻疹的时候,医生用了药还不见好,医生说是要经过十几二十天自然会好。么娘却着了急,有人建议用鸦片烟治病。在我们那乡下,鸦片烟是苜病皆治的灵药,幺叔平常也抽几口鸦片烟,给孩子嘴里渡烟子,也不很麻烦。果然这孩子的病好了。 但是可怪,这孩子的病好了,却还哭闹着要给他渡烟,意然成了癥。不给他渡烟,就又哭又闸。幺娘也将就了他。幺叔听到别人背地说闲诺。有的人说;“这么小点儿就抽烟,将来长大了必定是一个鸦片烟鬼,不会有出息。”也有的人说坏话:“看来是阎王爷派来讨债的,债一讨完,就会走的。”他听了也不在乎,只要是“个男娃娃,能长大成人,养儿育女,传宗接代就行了。 但是幺叔幺娘的如意算盘没有打通,大毛儿是幺娘晚生的,身体的根底本来不大好,又抽上鸦片烟,就越发坏了。在五岁多的那一年,得了一场大病。么叔么娘把医生请遍了,什么怪药都吃交了彳什么菩萨的愿也许完了,幺叔为了给大毛儿治病,把田产也卖得差不多了,还是不见好,最后还是“走”了。 幺叔幺娘的心头肉被挖掉了,那悲伤劲可以想见了。原来有人说的这是阎王派他来讨债的说法应验了。大家也是这么劝幺叔的:“前世你该他的债,他来把债讨完了,也该他走了。”有一个他过去热悉的和尚,也来劝他说:“前世申的命,这世得报应,你是奈何不得的,你在尘世的缘分算是完了该找一个淸静的地方去了此一生了。”果然他不辞而别,跟那个和尚走了,听说是到峨眉山上他早已看好的那个庙子里去剃度出家了。 " 幺娘呢?大毛儿明明死了,她却不承认。硬不准人把太毛儿入敛装棺材,抬出去埋了。她硬说:“大毛儿睡着了,等一等,等一等他就会酲的。”她一个劲地扑在大毛儿身上叫他,“大毛儿,你醒醒,你酲醒。”她竟然不哭,也没有掉眼泪。別人掉泪,她还是那么木头木脑地望着大毛儿。过了几天,灵堂出了臭味儿,大家才估倒把么娘拉幵,把大毛儿装进植材,抬到龙水沟坟上去埋了。 幺娘没有见到大毛儿了,她到处找,还是没有找到。她总以为是大毛儿出门到哪儿玩去了,所以吃饭的时候,她总要把大毛儿拍碗盛好饭,摆好筷子,到门口喊:“大毛儿,回来吃饭了。” 晚上也一样,她在门口喊:“大毛儿,回来呀,睡觉啦,”不见大乇儿回来,她就打起一个纸灯笼,在村子里到处喊:“大毛儿,回来呀1” 有人告诉她说:“你的大毛儿已经在龙水沟坟山上睡着了。”她就提起灯笼到龙水沟去,在坟山上上上下下地找,不住地喊1“大毛儿,回来呀。” 幺叔看破了红尘,忍心拋下么娘走了,幺娘似乎并不觉得,几乎忘记有幺叔的存在,烺。可是她却忘不了大毛儿。她也能做能吃,和好人一般无二,就是一吃饭,就要喊火毛儿回来吃饭,―到天黑,她就要打起灯笼,到处转游,喊大毛儿回家。她每天都要去龙水沟坟山上转上转下,喊大毛儿喊到深夜。 我回家的头一夭晚上,在土地庙外边乘凉,就看见她提起灯笼,在龙水沟象喊魂一样地叫喊,“大毛儿,回来呀。”那象鬼火一样在坟山上忽明忽灭的饤火,那婁惨的叫声,叫我听起来,真是毛骨悚然。:这个,我在前面已经说过了。 第二天,大伯叫我还是去看星一下幺娘,幺娘从小对我好,我是该去看一看。我到她家里去了。才一跨进门,么娘看到我,就高兴地说,“二娃子,你回来了,你把人毛儿带到哪里要去了,尽不回来?” 我简宜不知道该怎么回答。我只好支吾着说:“大毛儿要回来的。” “不晓得他到哪里野去了,你碰到他,叫他快回来:我不相信么娘想大毛儿想得神经错乱了,听她说话这么有条有理的。我赶忙回答:“嗯,我叫他快回来。 " 我在家乡呆了不过半月,天夭晚上都看到龙水沟里鬼火一般的灯光,听到幺娘的喊声。至今那明灭的灯光和那凄惨的叫声,还活龙活现在我的眼面前。 你们问么娘后来怎么样了?后来我听家乡的人来说,幺娘喊大毛儿喊了几个月,还是不见大毛儿的踪影,她就扩大地方去喊。一晚上不睡觉,到处敌走,就是喊大毛儿。后来她忽然不见了,不知道她到嘢里去了。有人说,在乡场口的桥头上看到水溪边有一个纸灯笼,很象是幺娘的纸灯笼,可能她已经失足落水淹死了。但是又有人说,在远远山里一个尼姑庵里,看到一个正在上香的老尼姑,很象是幺娘,说不定她被哪个善心人把她度到尼姑庵去了。不管幺娘是死是活,我都愿她的灵魂得到安息。野狐禅师摆完了他的龙门阵,难过地低下了头。我们也轻轻地叹息了。是羌江钓徒想转换一下这沉闷的空气,故意跟野狐禅师开玩笑说:“这回你摆的龙门阵,倒好象不是野狐禅,没有经过你艺术如工的样子: 野狐禅师竞一反常态,没有搭白,只顾低着头,想必他的幺娘还在他的耳边喊魂。会长峨眉山人没有说什么,只挥一挥手,意思是散会了,夜已深了,各人回家去吧。
