The house is on the outskirts of the city. If I put it in the past and visit the house at night, my heart has already mentioned my throat, and now I am still in a battle. Even I myself did not expect that I can become so calm now.
It's almost ten o'clock at night. The house is bigger than I expected. There are three rooms in total, one main room and two cabins. It is not as compact as the courtyard house in old Beijing. The overall design and decoration are completely antique. Style and layout.
Entering the yard, I followed Qin Yiheng first and then took a look around. Xu Chuanxiang also followed the details of the house, and finally the three of us entered the main room.
The main room is actually not very big. It is about 100 square meters in rough calculation. The decoration is very luxurious. The furniture is made of solid wood. It looks a bit antique. The main room should be regarded as a structure of two rooms and one hall. The entrance is the living room, and there are two bedrooms on each side.
Entering the house and turning on the light, Qin Yiheng immediately looked around again, frowning, but silent. Xu Chuanxiang and I were next to the two eunuchs, and did not dare to speak. After a while, he turned around and asked Xu Chuanxiang to turn off the light, and then turned out something from his bag. The thing is not big, he took it directly into his palm, and I didn't see it.
After turning off the lights, the room was suddenly dark with five fingers. When my eyes adjusted to the darkness, I saw that Qin Yiheng had leaned in front of the door on the right hand side, and his ear was stuck on the door, not knowing what he was listening to.
I looked back at Xu Chuanxiang. He couldn't see his expression in the dark, but he felt nervous. I couldn't help but also stretched my leg.
Qin Yiheng listened very carefully. After listening to one for a long time, he changed to another. After listening for five or six minutes, he turned around and asked Xu Chuanxiang to turn on the light, pointing to the door and asking Xu Chuanxiang: "You hung this thing?"
As soon as I turned on the light, the light shone in front of my eyes. I closed my eyes and slowed down. After opening my eyes, I saw that Qin Yiheng was referring to a bunch of red peppers hanging on the door. The string of red peppers is very positive in color, and it looks very festive, hanging in the middle of the door. The pepper skewer was very long, and it dragged to the floor in the eyes.
I heard Xu Chuanxiang yell, and admitted. I'm wondering, the North has the habit of buying bunches of red peppers or garlic for storage, but they are usually hung in the kitchen or outdoors. If it is for the sake of auspiciousness, it is not a holiday every year. Looking at Qin Yiheng's meaning, the problem with the door scratching is this bunch of peppers?
I looked around curiously, he didn't stop me, it was estimated that there was no danger. I let go of my guts and glanced at it carefully, and found that the peppers were very strange. Every head of the pepper was cut with scissors.
I pinched one with my hands and found that the peppers were empty, and the pepper seeds seemed to have been pulled out of the cut. Now I am more guilty, what does it mean? Is the co-authored handicraft ornament? It doesn't look like it!
I turned my head instinctively to look at Qin Yiheng, and wanted to ask him what the mystery was.
Before waiting for me to speak, he said "Xu" and asked Xu Chuanxiang: "Is this something you learned by yourself?" Xu Chuanxiang nodded, then shook his head again, saying: "These are all I watched from others Here, if you want to talk about learning, you can only count as stealing. "After that, I asked," This thing doesn't work? "
Qin Yiheng listened to him and smiled instead, saying, "It works but it works. This is called" Pan Sui "in alchemy. The earliest was the years of war in ancient times. The male at home was arrested and went to war. The family was at the door. The nails on the front center are hung with a string of 'pansui', which means that every year is looking forward to the family returning home. The cruelty of the war is obvious to all, and few people who go to war can come back alive. It has evolved into an object that has been recruited from the family to return to the hometown and give dreams to loved ones. This pepper cannot be hung up first, that is to say, the peppers that grew out of the field cannot be used. They must be left over from previous years. After opening the mouth, it was said that the family members in the distance could see their own door at a glance, and even hear the call of their loved ones. However, this is all subjective conjecture and not so big. The effect. The soul can't come back across the river and the mountain on the road. In detail, it has a lot to do with the geography and geomancy. "
Qin Yiheng pointed to the chili and told Xu Chuanxiang: "This 'Pan Sui' mainly takes the homonymous 'pull' which is the word 'chili'. It's nothing more than expressing the meaning of pulling back the soul and calling it back. In my bedroom, is n’t this something I ’m looking for? Do n’t say it ’s a good idea, it ’s good not to return a few.
Then, he spread his palms and told us to watch.
In his palm is a small ball with big fingernails, black and not slippery, but it is not like a sheep dung ball. He told us: "This is a 'eye-damage bead', which is made of the subcutaneous fat of newborn bats and mud in the graveyard, and is specially used to listen to these evil things. This was in ancient times those witch doctors who played gods The technique. It is said that if you put the 'harmful eyeball' in your ears, you can hear some filth, especially for distinguishing whether someone is being ghosted, or what kind of upper body is really useful. According to legend, for example, a person is You can hear two heartbeats of different frequencies if you listen to the person's back with the "harmful pearl" on the upper body. If the upper body is humei or snake fairy, you can also distinguish from the details of the heartbeat frequency But, that ’s just a veteran. I ’m only in the elementary stage, and I ’m using it for the first time today. I tried it out like a cat and a tiger. However, I do n’t know if my method is wrong. What happened? "
I didn't dare to breathe, but he didn't hear anything for a long time. I leaned over and listened, and there was no unusual noise. If there is one, it is also because the solid sound guide is relatively easy, which amplifies the footsteps of the two of them in the house. In addition to that, there was indeed a silence over the door.
Xu Chuanxiang was very afraid of this door. At first, he didn't dare to come. It was estimated that both of us had such relaxed expressions, and we couldn't resist curiosity. He picked the pepper string and posted it with me on the door to listen.
Upon seeing this, Qin Yiheng handed the "hazardous eyeball" in his hand to Xu Chuanxiang and stood aside smoking.
The door was not big at first, and Xu Chuanxiang squeezed me aside as soon as it was posted. I simply pulled aside, also lit a cigarette and rested, standing for a long time, my waist began to sore.
The cigarette hadn't smoked two times yet. Xu Chuanxiang suddenly "ah", and the man followed and took two steps back, pointing to the door with his mouth open and speechless.
He was so startled that he almost scared me to death. Looking at his expression, I shouted secretly in my heart: "Well, isn't this up?"
Qin Yiheng was also taken aback and asked "what's wrong" twice.
Xu Chuanxiang slowed down for a while, and finally calmed down, but he still mumbled and couldn't understand. It is estimated that he is also helpless. He simply took out the "harmful eyeball" and handed it to me, pointing the door with his hand, meaning you listen to it yourself.
The light in the room was on, and Qin Yiheng was nearby. I was not afraid. The beads were in my hands anyway. I will go ahead and listen.
When I put my ear on the door, I found something amiss. I don't know if it's a psychological effect. It seems that there is a strange movement over the door. I can't say anything about it. If you have to describe it, it's a bit like the sound of a horseshoe coming from far away, very rhythmic.
My heart started pounding, and the sound was really small, and I couldn't tell for a moment.
I got up and gave the place to Qin Yiheng. He took the beads and leaned in to listen to it. I watched his expression all the time. At first, he was very calm, and I was relieved. It seems that we are still a little bit of a soldier.
But before I was fortunate for a moment, he frowned and stared at the door squinting, not knowing what he was thinking. After a while, he stood up and even carefully knocked on the door with his index finger, twisting his hand to pull the door open.
Suddenly, I felt that the long-lost fear caught me. His move was really evil, knowing that there was no one in it. He knocked on the door, and who else did he use? I took a step back instinctively and happened to hit Xu Chuanxiang. Looking back at him, it was also a face of sweat beads.
Qin Yiheng heard that the static lock seemed to unscrew the door lock, and I clearly heard a "click" sound when the lock core popped open. After a while, I didn't see him open the door. He turned his back to us, and I couldn't see his expression, so I moved a little bit to see what he was doing.
Looking at the angle, I was even more puzzled. Qin Yiheng seemed to want to pull the door open. Obviously, the whole person's movement was forceful, but the door didn't move much! I mean shit, the filth inside is so powerful, actually pulling the door handle against him?
