After we asked them, we found out that they were actually still awake, afraid that something might happen, and were prepared to come see us again during the day. However, after hearing that there were some movements from the Baozi's home, they worried that something might happen, and bravely came out to look.
Everyone saw Steamed Bun sitting in the yard and pointing to an empty table. He was smiling as he called out to everyone to eat. From the looks of it, he seemed to be sitting around a lot of people.
After saying that, everyone asked the Second Master Lin what was going to happen. If this goes on, something big would happen sooner or later, and our village might even disappear from the map.
Everyone pointed at Second Master Lin and gave their suggestions, but Second Master Lin held back for a long time without saying a word.
At this moment, a portion of the people who just ran out of the village came back. When they saw us, they were stunned for a moment before realizing that they had also encountered the Wall-Hitting Ghost.
At first they wanted to escape into town, but somehow they ran and ran and came back.
The Second Master Lin told them to stop running. Although the matter with the bun was scary, it would not harm anyone.
In the end, we decided to go back and take a look. Some of the more daring ones would follow us towards the Baozi's home.
When he reached the door, he found that the candles were still burning inside.
He remembered that before he left, the candles that the Second Master Lin had lit should have been burnt up long ago.
The Eight Immortals continued to hold their ground.
It was unknown if it was due to some psychological effect or what, but his neck was chilled.
A man has three lamps on him, one on each shoulder, one on top of the other. If someone calls your name, do not turn back.
I felt my neck grow colder and colder, and I kept feeling something on it.
"Where did you guys get my bowl?!" Suddenly, a voice sounded from behind me, scaring me so much that I couldn't help but turn around. Steamed Bun was standing behind me with an ashen face.
I don't know where I got the courage, but I sent a flying kick, but it missed. I fell to the ground, while Steamed Bun stood there motionlessly.
After falling down, I felt a strong feeling of suffocation in my neck, as if something was holding me down.
I struggled like a madman, but my legs were in no condition to do anything. It was as if I was hanging in the air.
Very quickly, I felt my body lighten. The seven to eight people outside rushed in and dragged me out. As soon as I stepped out of the door, I was completely fine. I was so shocked that I broke out in a cold sweat.
Second Master Lin said I was bewitched, he said I just looked at the house beams, and then grabbed onto his neck tightly. They saw that something was wrong and immediately dragged me out.
At this time, Da Jian brought over Steamed Bun's Pig Slaughtering Knife from somewhere. With an aggressive look, he chopped the knife down onto Steamed Bun's bed.
He shouted, Steamed Bun! If you have the guts, then come out!
Da Jian's eyes were bloodshot, he was most likely being forced into a corner. He was bare-chested, and the muscles on his body were trembling, he was the one with the toughest Life Bestowal Spell out of the four.
Second Master Lin analyzed that the reason why all of them were tenacious was because of Da Jian. However, they still encountered some strange things, which probably had something to do with Da Jian urinating.
People could not casually urinate in the wilderness because they did not know when they had crashed into the "ghost". In addition, they were all asleep, so the "three fires" on their bodies were easily extinguished.
I could smell the stench of blood on the butcher's knife.
Da Jian held onto the blade hilt, he sat on the bed, looking like he was going to throw caution to the wind.
Strange to say, Steamed Bun never appeared again.
Just when we thought it was all right, we heard flustered footsteps outside.
We quickly ran out of the yard and saw dozens of people running around like they were fleeing for their lives. After asking around, we found out that Steamed Bun was asking for someone to "buy a bowl". They were all panicking and hiding all over the village.
Da Jian took out his Pig Slaughtering Knife, telling everyone to not panic, and waited here. Just like that, until the next day, when the sky brightened, everything returned to normal.
Second Master Lin told everyone to go back, please do not worry, no matter what, I will give the whole village an explanation, and he will let me go back too.
He had originally planned to return home today, but after a long struggle, he decided to forget about it.
I didn't get up until the afternoon, and I heard a rattle in the yard.
He walked out and discovered that Second Master Lin was sitting in the courtyard with a few bowls in front of him. He held a pile of broken pieces in his hands and looked around.
I asked him what he was doing, and the Second Master Lin laughed at himself. He said that if it wasn't for him messing around, there would be no trouble here.
He picked a bowl that was similar to Steamed Bun's. On a piece of paper beside him, he wrote "Steamed Bun's Spring". He dipped a brush in the chicken blood and copied the word "Spring" onto it.
After being roasted for half a day, the bottom of the bowl had already turned black. Second Master Lin used water to wash it clean.
When I looked again, there was a hint of blood at the bottom of the bowl, he said.
At this time, a lot of people gathered in front of Second Master Lin's doorstep.
Second Master Lin made them queue up, then peeked at them one by one.
At first he didn't understand what was going on, but later he realized that he was checking to see if he had lost his soul.
But since there was nothing to do, the Second Master Lin let them go.
The Second Master Lin said that if Da Jian had not been ruthless enough and took out the Pig Slaughtering Knife, you all would have been in trouble.
Let's not talk about the reason why we made a mess yesterday, if not for Da Jian, I think we would really have gotten into trouble. That Pig Slaughtering Knife could have killed countless of pigs, and it could be said that it was because of that Pig Slaughtering Knife that it saved our lives.
However, this sly old fox, Second Master Lin did not say that he broke the bowl. If he said it out loud, he would become a sinner in history.
If you want to talk about Steamed Bun, why does it seem like he's showing a movie? Repeating a scene, the problem comes from "going by the shadow path".
This was the reason why he couldn't stop when he "took the shady route". If he didn't take the shady route well, it would seem like he was showing a movie.
As time passed, he would do something "out of bounds".
Steamed Bun continued to "walk on the dark path". Once he walked the entire path, he would become a terrifying existence.
After Second Master Lin finished speaking, he also prepared a few other things.
In addition to the utensils, he also found some mud and wrapped it in paper to make a pillow.
I asked what that meant, and he said you'd know when the time came.
He then went to Steamed Bun's coffin at night. He opened the coffin and placed the bowl and chopsticks inside. At the same time, he also placed the mud pillow under Steamed Bun's head.
Second Master Lin said that this was called "ground gas".
Then, Second Master Lin took out a red rope to tie the coffin.
I asked him, What are you doing tying the rope for? He rolled his eyes at me. Steamed Bun is already so noisy, but he's still calling me fine? Then he told me, for the purpose of preventing the exhumation.
I replied with an "Oh", as if I understood something. When everything was ready, I could only wait for the coffin to open. The village chief's head was sweating profusely and his legs were shaking. Let alone him, even my heart was very nervous.
Lin Jian shouted, "Get up the coffin!" The four Eight Immortals smoothly lifted the coffin. This time, nothing happened and they had completed the dark path.
He finally had a heart attack.
After that, Second Master Lin instructed the Village Chief to remember the following three points:
1. Send someone to burn paper in front of the Steamed Bun Cemetery every day.
When burning paper, he would mutter, "No one is to snatch it from me." These are Steamed Bun's.
2. The money used to burn paper, do not go to the stall to buy for the sake of saving money. Instead, make your own money print. I will write down the specific steps on the paper for you.
Third, tie a chicken at the Baozi's home gate. If the chicken is still alive after seven days, it means that it's fine.
The Village Head nodded his head like a chicken that was about to die. He then asked, "What if the chicken dies?"
The Second Master Lin shook his head.
When the Village Chief heard this, his expression became unspeakably ugly.
I asked Second Master Lin, we had been busy for such a long time, how did we still have any questions?
The Second Master Lin explained just in case, in order to eliminate the hidden danger.
When the village chief was preparing to leave, he suddenly thought of something and turned back. He asked Bao Wenjun what should he do?
Just then, Da Jian said that there was news from the hospital. I will be leaving the hospital today and let him stay with me for a few days.
At this point, I couldn't help but grumble.
In fact, in the past, Bao Wenjun's family was quite unpopular in the village. Because his family was poor and Bao Wenjun didn't really know how to interact with people, everyone in the village hated him.
However, since I came to their village this time, I realized that the villagers had changed their attitude towards him.
The reason was simple, it was because Bao Wenjun had struck it rich. Even when there was a funeral at home, there were so many people who came to help, but now that Bao Wenjun was in the hospital, they all rushed to take care of him.
Thinking about this, I shake my head helplessly. This is the society of reality.
After everything was settled, Second Master Lin and I returned to his house.
