Chapter 107: Peach Blossom Ghost (Part 2)

I saw that Aunt Ninth's arm was completely gone, and all the flesh and blood on her arm seemed to have disappeared, leaving only a layer of skin wrapped around the bones inside. The original flesh color was completely replaced by black, and it looked like black glass, and even the light outside the house shone on it, it could reflect a layer of light. {Chinese.

"What's going on?" The old farmer wanted to reach out and touch Aunt Ninth's arm, but after stretching out, he shrank back, and a look of fear appeared on his face.

Aunt Ninth raised her sleeves and said calmly: "Two days ago, when the little guy from the Qian family was catching a rabbit, he somehow walked into that mountain and bumped into something with the other people in the village. When he came back, he was completely out of place. I rescued him, but the price was this arm."

"Can you save someone who has an accident in the mountains?" The old farmer said anxiously when he heard this.

"Don't think about it, it's impossible." Aunt Ninth knew what the old farmer was thinking, shook her head and said, "When the little guy in Qian's family had a talisman I made on his body. Although the effect was not very good, it played a little role so that he could hold me up until I took action. The people in the village were probably left with only one empty shell. Even if I took action, it would be useless. And I have to pay an arm's price just once. How many people do you think the old woman can save after paying her whole body?"

"What should I do if the matter is going to happen? Just watch the things continue to deteriorate like this? At the speed of the spread of things on the mountain, it will soon spread to that field. At that time... ah!" "The old farmer, who was frowning, thought of the disaster that would eventually deteriorate to the point where things would become uncontrollable, would have to sigh.

"This matter was entirely your own cause." Aunt Ninth snorted coldly and said, "You shouldn't have sent the peach tree to the capital as a gift to seek credit. What is that peach tree? It is the mountain god of this Peach Blossom Mountain, which has suppressed the entire Peach Blossom Mountain's veins. Fortunately, the peach tree is still a bit of compassionate and spiritual. When you touch it, it did not involve the earth veins, but left a little residual root to continue to consolidate the earth veins. This is why you can enjoy ten years of peace in Taohua Township. The remaining roots that are left underground have lost their effect. Those sneaks that were in the earth veins by Taoshu Town back then appeared, and no one could stop it. Now it is just the beginning. If you continue, let alone Taohua Township, I'm afraid that all towns in hundreds of miles will be turned into ghost domains by these sneaks."

"Is it so serious? Ninth Aunt, you can't be..." The old farmer's face suddenly changed, and he was a little doubtful about what Aunt Ninth said, but when he thought of the tragic situation of Aunt Ninth's arm, he couldn't help but believe Aunt Ninth's words, and swallowed the doubts that were about to blurt out again.

Although the old farmer didn't say it completely, the meaning was almost revealed. Aunt Ninth naturally didn't look good at him and glared at him coldly. Even though her eyes were separated by a layer of cloth, the old farmer still felt it clearly.

"Hehe! Am I in a hurry? That's why I say the wrong thing. Don't be surprised." The old farmer knew the ninth aunt's nature very well. He smiled awkwardly and apologized. After feeling the gaze behind the face covering cloth softened, he continued to ask: "You veteran can see through this matter so thoroughly. What should you do about this?"

"What should I do? There is no way." Aunt Ninth shook her head and said, "Now even if you go to the capital, transport the peach tree back, and plant it again according to the original location, it will not have any effect."

Hearing this, the old farmer was really anxious. Although he hoped that what Aunt Ninth said was not true, the incident on the mountain would only happen on the mountain and would not spread to the village, he did not dare to gamble, and he couldn't afford to gamble. He stood up suddenly, wandering around in this small house like a headless fly. He didn't know what to do for a moment.

"Actually, if you don't come to find me, I will also go to find you. After all, I also live in this Taohua Township. If something happens, I can't escape the old woman." Aunt Ninth said in a hoarse voice: "I am a dying person, and I will die if I die, but there are more than a dozen households here. It's too bad to die." As she said that, she paused and continued: "I can't do it to solve this problem. I can only come up with a few ideas, you can choose yourself."

"You said, you said!" The old farmer stopped, rushed to Aunt Ninth, and said anxiously as if he had grabbed the life-saving straw.

"The best and most secure way is to leave for the time being." Aunt Ninth said slowly: "The world has changed. The man who fought with the sky, the earth, and the people has long established the way to conquer the nature of man. Under the power of a country, ghosts and gods do not exist, and there is no power to resist. Now the matter on the mountain is just a one-time explosion after so many years. Once this explosion momentum passes, it will be dispersed by the national trend and everything will return to normal."

The old farmer thought about the ninth aunt's proposal for a moment and asked, "How long will it take?"

Aunt Ninth opened her hands and said, "At least five years."

The old farmer shook his head without thinking too much and said, "Impossible! Taohua Township is a role model for the county commune. It is impossible for the county town to abandon it. And with my ability, I used the excuse of celebrating the 20th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China in advance as an excuse to take the villagers out for a day or two, and it was barely possible, but in five years... this is simply impossible."

Aunt Ninth also knew that such a thing was impossible, so she didn't say anything more, but continued: "The second way is to find an expert to ban the place again."

"Look for a master? Where to find a master?" the old farmer asked with a puzzled look. There was only Aunt Ninth who could come into contact with all his masters who were able to deal with such ghosts and gods. Now even Aunt Ninth, who was regarded as his last move, was powerless to the status quo, so he could not find any help to him.

Aunt Ninth said next: "Recently, all over the country have been breaking superstitions and sweeping away the four old ones. Many of the people in the temples should have been sent to the villages of all places. As far as I know, there is a monk Fayuan from Yaoshan Temple in Changde, Hunan. In addition, there are two masters from Xiafu Village who are authentic in Taoism. One is called Hetingzi and the other is called Qingjingzi. If you find a way to find all these masters, gather ideas and combine the power of everyone, you should be able to find a solution to the problem on the mountain."

"This..." The old farmer pondered for a moment when he heard this, shook his head, and said with a frustrated look: "This is probably impossible! If you want to summon all those people here, the revolutionary committees of those villages need to be released. Only the provincial revolutionary committee can give such instructions. How could I, a small peach blossom village chief, let the province issue such instructions? Even if it is possible, what reason should I use? If the truth is told, I am afraid I will fall into it." After rejecting this proposal, he asked with a little expectation: "Aunt Ninth, is there any other way?"

The ninth aunt understood what the old farmer said, but she thought that this was the most likely way she thought of. Now that she was denied, her mood naturally became very bad. When facing the inquiry, her tone seemed cold and said, "There is another way in the end, but it is useless to say it, and it is definitely impossible to do it."

The old farmer is also very anxious now. When he saw Aunt Ninth was vague, he urged him rudely: "How can you know if it's impossible to do it before you say it? Aunt Ninth, when is it now? You are still keeping it in hiding, just say whatever you can do."

"This method is to find the owner of the charity manor back then." The ninth aunt did not care about the old farmer's rudeness, and said the last proposal, saying: "The area where the accident happened was exactly where the Taohuashan Yizhuang Village was. This matter must be related to the strange people who were in charge of the charity manor. If you find the owner of the charity manor, you will definitely solve this problem. Unfortunately, the charity manor had disappeared decades ago. I still remember that the last generation of charity manor owners was Huangshan. The last water and land Dharma ceremony held by Chen Jiachong was that he and his sister cast magic spells, controlled the power of the world and all things, and sent countless lonely ghosts into the cycle of reincarnation. It is of great merit. If you can find Mr. Huangshan, you should be able to solve the current problem."

When the ninth aunt recalled the grand scene back then, she couldn't help but show her feelings on her face. Although the world was chaotic and the people were living in poverty, it was the best living environment for those who were arbitrary and traitors like them. At that time, they could become guests of honor for some dignitaries and nobles by applying a little trick, and power, money and fame would follow one after another. Even if they could not be called free and easy, they could still be considered wealth and glory. However, although the country is stable now, they have become obstacles to the country and are about to be eliminated. In the end, they can only survive in some small mountain villages. The gap is really sad.

However, the old farmer didn't care about the change in his mentality of the Ninth Aunt. After listening to the last proposal of Ninth Aunt, he involuntarily linked the person represented by the name of the Master of the Yi Manor with the person with severe burns he had seen before. He remembered that Xu Changqing was the owner of the Yi Manor, and Mr. Huangshan, whom the Ninth Aunt mentioned, was Xu Changqing's disciple. After the accident on the mountain, a mysterious person with the same name suddenly appeared in the village, which made him involuntarily think about whether it was a simple coincidence or other reasons.

At this time, Aunt Ninth had recovered from her memories and sighed softly. Then she saw the old farmer's thoughtful expression on his face, as if she was seriously considering the proposal she had just said. Seeing this, she couldn't help but ask: "Chen Lizi, do you know the whereabouts of Mr. Huangshan?"
