Chapter 20: Rootless water

Views:

The ancestor considered that the spell of "Missing a Door" would easily make the disciples and grandchildren proud and deceive others. He deliberately set up a rule that the son is outside, and the Lord is inside. Those who deceive the Lord must not die well. The reverse is also true.

This rule says that when going to work outside, unless the owner deceives others, the carpenter must not harm others. If he harms others, he must not die properly. The hands may be paralyzed, and the whole family may die.

When this rule was first established, one of Patriarch’s disciples, named Xinzi, felt that Patriarch’s rules were just talking, not necessarily useful, and did not take it seriously. When he went out to work, he moved to the Dongjia Asking for ten times the salary, the owner didn't give it, so he drew a tiger on the door of the Dongjia and cast a spell. About a month later, the owner was eaten by the tiger when he went up the mountain.

After letting the ancestor know about this, he asked Xin Zi the reason, and Xin Zi said that the owner was unwilling to pay. However, the ancestor found out that it was Xinzi who wanted a high salary after investigation. His old man was anxious at first, but he didn't beat and scold Xinzi. He just said, "He who breaks his rules will be punished."

On the third day, Xinzi's family of seven people, young and old, died suddenly inexplicably, in a terrifying state of death. Everyone's hands seemed to be torn apart by some huge force.

There was a lot of news about this incident at the time, and the officials had investigated the cause of death. No one could tell the cause. In the end, the matter was not resolved. However, this matter was widely circulated in the carpenter circle. A group of carpenters believed that this was a violation. The rules of the ancestor were retributed. Over time, carpenters called this rule, the curse of the ancestor, also called the curse of Luban.

This incident alone will certainly not spread to this day. Coincidentally, just after the grandpa’s birthday, a very small number of carpenters believed that the curse should be gone with the grandpa’s death, so they risked it. Using the "Missing a Door" spell to harm people, the result is no different from Xin Zi. A family of young and old died suddenly and their hands were broken.

In this way, when every carpenter is working, he feels that he has a pair of eyes behind him, staring at his every move. Once he has a crooked thought, he will be cursed by the Patriarch, especially those carpenters with exquisite craftsmanship. It is very particular.

As mentioned earlier, "Missing a Door" is divided into two volumes. The first volume is a spell that harms people, and the second volume is a spell that saves people. What we ghosts learned at first was the spell that saves people, but somehow it saves people. The magic spell of "did not last long, and it was lost in the early Han Dynasty. It was not until the appearance of a character that the spell of saving people was passed down in another way.

This character is Zhang Liang, who has a peerless talent. He, Han Xin and Xiao He, are known as the three outstanding figures in the early Han Dynasty. Everyone only knows that Zhang Liang has military talents. Only some carpenters know that Zhang Liang’s knowledge of carpenters is not Lower than Lu Ban, some people even think that Zhang Liang has far surpassed the Patriarch Lu Ban. In a society where the respect for the teacher is more than anything else, Zhang Liang did not dare to be big, and he has always been flattering himself than the Patriarch.

When he was young, Zhang Liang devoted himself to the military and assisted Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty. After the establishment of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Liang resigned and returned to his hometown. First, he spent three years perfecting some of the faults in the wooden tools of the ancestor, and then founding. There are two spells, one is "Gongshi's Liyu" and the other is Urgent.

At that time, the second volume of "Missing a Door" had been lost, Zhang Liang combined these two spells into one and added to the second half of "Missing a Door", which is the spell to save people, and he rigorously educates his disciples and grandchildren. It can't be said that this spell was created by Zhang Liang, and it can be regarded as respect for the ancestor.

Precisely because these two spells were added later, many of these spells are targeted, targeting the harmful spells in the first half of "The Missing One". So, strictly speaking, the real ancestor of our ghostsmith is actually Zhang Liang, but Lu Ban was the first, and we descendants dare not make a second, so we can only call Lu Ban the ancestor master.

However, when doing certain things, we ghost craftsmen will take out Zhang Liang’s idol and place it with the ancestor Luban’s idol. When placing it, we have to put Zhang Liang’s idol a little behind. Can not be placed side by side.

It is precisely because of the small story inside that I have a calm face. If according to Li Chengze's statement, he and the master are very harmonious, then the master cannot harm him. After all, this thing will have to bear the consequences.

Could this wooden window be okay

After this thought, I asked Li Chengze to bring a bucket of rootless water over, intending to try the wooden window.

Speaking of rootless water, it is actually clear water that has not been eroded by the turbidity on the ground. Generally, the water caught in rainy days can be called rootless water. However, the best rootless water is the dew that comes out in the morning. The most pure and yang, it has restraining effect on some filth.

Then Li Chengze stared at me for a long time, and finally suffocated a word, saying no.

When I thought about it, it was right. Whoever was okay would pick up the rain from a rainy day, and no one would be bored enough to mess with the dew, and I was a little disappointed.

And the reason why I want water without roots, in the words of my senior, the spells handed down by those carpenters and ancestors are almost lost, and there are not many who really understand harmful spells, even if they do, they are just Understand a little bit of introductory spells, pour it with rootless water, and you will be able to see the way.

I was disappointed that he was going to work hard. Then Li Chengze seemed to think of something and said to me, "Yes, didn’t it rain a while ago? There are households in our village, and there is serious water leakage at home. He often uses wooden buckets to collect rainwater. I know if his family has it."

I looked happy and hurriedly said, "Go and ask."

Then Li Chengze nodded and quickly walked out. After a while, he came in with a wooden bucket and said with joy, "Little brother, by coincidence, the man's wooden bucket has been placed there to receive water, and it happens to be half of it. It’s just that the water in this wooden barrel is a bit dirty, don’t you know it’s okay?"

I looked down and found that the water in this bucket was not considered dirty. It was just a few garlic cloves floating. It was estimated that the bucket should be placed in the kitchen to collect water. I said yes, and then asked him, "This bucket Remember to give the water, otherwise it will not work."

Then Li Chengze's complexion changed, and he hurriedly walked out, saying that he was going to give money.

When he came back, I asked again, did you give me the money? He said yes, so I dared to scoop some water from the cup and splash it against the wooden window.

As the rootless water splashed on the wooden window, the window did not change at all, and it flowed down the wooden window. The lines of water stains were particularly obvious, unlike the carpenter's hands and feet, which made my heart sink. Like iron, it's a hell of a ghost. According to the brothers, ordinary houses are passive, and this rootless water can definitely be tested.

But, this situation is not right!

At the moment, I was carrying rootless water and splashing some wooden doors in Li Chengze's house again. The result was the same as the wooden windows, without any change.

Then Li Chengze saw that I did it for a long time and didn't get it out. Therefore, his face was a little wrong, and he said, "Little brother, can you do it? If it doesn't work, go find your master!"

I glanced up at him and didn't say a word. Since the rootless water is useless, I can only use the most primitive method to measure the size with Luban's ruler, distinguish yin and yang by size, determine bad luck by yin and yang, and judge by bad luck.
