Chapter 307: A Magical Way to Drive Away Snakes
The master couldn’t tell the Feng family what he was thinking. He had heard that Mr. Feng didn’t like snakes or anything related to snakes, otherwise he wouldn’t have moved the ancestral hall from Xiaofeng Mountain, where there were snakes, to here.
Forget it, everything is predestined.
Coming out of the Buddhist temple, the master looked up at the sky.
The obstructing clouds had dissipated, the sun was high, and everything seemed normal.
But they knew that was not the case.
Although they were not members of the Feng clan, they could still feel the strangeness when chanting.
When he was about to leave the ancestral hall, the master paused, turned towards the direction of the ancestral hall, put his hands together, bowed, and then left.
After the monks left, the clan members started talking again.
"Who was that big monk bowing to just now?"
"You can't tell? Of course it was the ancestors!"
"So, the ancestors really showed up just now?!"
"Looking at the master's reaction, it must not be evil spirits, it must be the ancestors! Should we kowtow again? I wasn't sincere enough when I burned incense and worshipped before, I will definitely be more sincere this time! I will kowtow louder than before!"
"No matter how sincere you are, no matter how loud you kowtow, they are also blessing the Feng family of Yangcheng in this place, not the same clan as you. Besides... the ancestors here seem to be in a bad mood, don't make things worse!"
"That's right, hey, what on earth can the Feng family of Yangcheng do, and they can mess it up?!"
Mockery, questioning, dodging, gloating...
The eyes of the clan members made Mr. Feng choke and stumble.
Uncle Feng Yi was watching from the side, and he was frightened: "Hurry up! Help the old man go in and rest!"
He signaled his family to help the old man take some medicine and calm down. If something really happened here, it would be difficult to deal with.
For the ancestral worship ceremony, let alone the clan members, the people of the Feng family in Yangcheng felt more complicated and nervous than Feng Yi when he was burning incense!
This ancestral hall, from site selection to design, including the Buddha statues placed inside and other details, was handled by the old man.
Is there anything that violates the ancestral taboo?
Did the ancestors really show their spirits?
Is there really a problem with the feng shui here?
And so on...
I didn't dare to ask, and I didn't dare to persuade.
The people around were discussing heatedly, and Feng Yi didn't participate in it.
He guessed that the master's behavior just now should have only vaguely perceived some extraordinary factors, and more might not be known.
Feng Yi had no interest in knowing what the master was thinking. He was just thinking:
Our clan has existed for so long. Do our ancestors have acquaintances in Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism?
Our ancestors are awesome!
When will the DNA move more and open more memories? Feng Yi wants to see the things that the ancestors did with the old acquaintances!
How about going to a Taoist temple next time?
There will be a banquet after the ceremony.
Originally, the Feng family in Yangcheng also arranged vegetarian meals for the masters. I don’t know if the master and his disciples had other plans or other reasons. They refused the meal arrangement and left after the ceremony.
And the old man didn’t attend the banquet because he was not feeling well.
The outstanding clan members that Old Master Feng had invited with great effort are now not following the old man’s plan at all.
Eat a banquet?
I’m in no mood for a banquet!
They went to block Old Master Feng.
Although the Feng family in Yangcheng said that the old man was not feeling well and had to rest, in the eyes of the clan members, the old man saw that the situation was not right and hid away!
Hide?
How dare you hide?
What's the point of hiding when the ancestor worship ceremony is like this? !
Why don't you discuss how to let the ancestors rest in peace! !
People who believe in this regard attach great importance to ancestral tombs and ancestral halls.
What business cooperation development plans, what clan children's management, all put aside first!
You must first explain to me clearly why such a thing happened in the ancestral hall? !
What caused the ancestors to make such a fuss? ! !
Did the tombs not move properly?
Is the feng shui of the ancestral hall not good?
Several elders of higher generation specifically told Mr. Feng: "You must appease the ancestors! I know a reliable master, ask him to take a look, is the Feng Shui of this place really bad? If there is really no other way, how about moving it back to the original place?"
"No matter how magnificent the ancestral hall is, it's useless if the ancestors don't like it!"
"The place that the deceased elders liked was Xiaofeng Mountain? Who knows, the Feng Shui there is really good!"
These clan elders said one after another, which was simply stabbing the old man in the heart.
He endured for so many years and spent so much effort, and finally moved the ancestral hall here, and the ancestors' graves were moved down from the mountain...
Now you want me to move it back again?
Where is the face? !
After doing so much, is it just a joke in the end!
The clan elders over there competed to do ideological work for Mr. Feng, and the banquet here was also very lively.
The person who secretly took out the video with his mobile phone took it out and looked at it, and he became more and more dissatisfied.
Nothing was filmed!
The pure image can't express the feeling of fear and terror just now!
If you show these videos to anyone, you can only see - clouds blocking the sun, monks chanting in front, people watching around, breeze blowing here...
Apart from that, the most important part can't be expressed at all!
It was a lonely shot!
Some people also hold different views on the abnormalities that occurred during this ancestor worship ceremony:
"Maybe it's not something supernatural, maybe it's just a kind of hypnosis, psychological suggestion?"
"Indeed, some large-scale hypnosis scenes, from light color, smell temperature, to music sound, decoration atmosphere, when everything is just right and people's ideas are focused, they will naturally enter a hypnotic state and receive certain psychological suggestions."
"So what you mean is that under many coincidences, everyone accidentally accepted a hypnosis?"
"It's possible!"
"You can contact the TV station to shoot an episode of scientific exploration."
Uncle Zhen feels deeply about this. He doesn't think it's the appearance of the ancestors, but other reasons.
However, many details can't be recorded by mobile phones at all!
"If my intelligent mechanical Qilin is here, it can collect more data!"
"What a pity! Why don't you let my Qilin in!!"
The more he thought about it, the more he felt sorry. Uncle Zhen went to Uncle Feng Yi with a rare smile and asked him:
"Will you hold another ancestor worship ceremony on the Ghost Festival?"
The clan members who were close to him heard this and looked over, with more than ten pairs of eyes flashing with expectation.
Uncle Feng Yi: "..."
Even if he had this idea before the ceremony, he didn't have it now.
Impossible!
Such a frustrating thing is enough once, who the hell wants to experience it a second time?
Who knows if there will be something more terrible the second time? !
The Yangcheng Feng family didn't want to continue talking about the ancestral hall, but the clan members were still enthusiastic, and the banquet was even more heated.
Of course, they also talked about the Fengshui of the ancestral hall and the old site of the ancestral hall, and inevitably talked about Xiaofengshan.
Some people thought that even if the Yangcheng Feng family didn't like it, they could do it themselves. Although they are not from the same clan now, they all have common ancestors!
"Look, when the ancestral hall of the Feng family in Yangcheng was on Xiaofeng Mountain, the fortune was so good! Now it's changed, oh wow, something is wrong!"
"Xiaofeng Mountain is definitely a Feng Shui treasure land!"
"I'm thinking, can my ancestral tomb be moved to Xiaofeng Mountain?"
"If moving the tomb is not possible, how about building an ancestral hall on Xiaofeng Mountain? It doesn't need to be big, a small ancestral hall will do. If the ancestors are happy, they will bless their descendants more?"
Someone picked up the phone to consult the relevant personnel on the spot, but unfortunately the reply they got was-
According to the current management regulations, the management of the cemetery near Xiaofeng Mountain is not so strict, you just need to pay.
But on the mountain, if you want to build a new building, it's too difficult! It takes a long time to review each one!
And the ancestral home of the Feng family in Yangcheng is now privately owned and has nothing to do with the Feng family in Yangcheng.
"I heard that the place has been rebuilt. It is no longer a ancestral hall, but a private residence. That person has been waiting for a long time, and finally waited for the Yangcheng Feng family to move the ancestral hall. As soon as the ancestral hall was moved here, he couldn't wait to renovate the place!"
"It's hard to move back after moving out."
"Legal means won't work, they have legal possession. If you put pressure on them privately... that may not be effective. Can they occupy a place on Xiaofeng Mountain and live in peace until now? Can they be ordinary people?"
The more I talk about it, the more I feel sorry for the Yangcheng Feng family.
Xiaofeng Mountain is such a good place! They actually moved out!
Which master did they find to look at Feng Shui? I must avoid this person in the future!
"Your vision is not good!"
I don't know if this is about Mr. Feng or the Feng Shui master.
But no matter what, the attitude of the clan members towards the Yangcheng Feng family has changed.
The Feng family in Yangcheng is not good at foresight and luck. It is not known how much risk they will take to cooperate with them. It is obvious that they are already on the decline. Even the ancestors prefer Feng Yi who was expelled from the family!
In this way, the business that Grandpa Feng talked about before...
Think about it again, and think about it carefully!
No matter what other people think, whether they are in a good mood or not, Feng Yi had a great time at the banquet.
Originally, Feng Chi kept talking about "the colorful life in the world" in his ear. After Feng Yi repeatedly emphasized that he did not have that idea, Feng Chi ran to his uncle to improve his impression.
If he does not improve his presence, his uncle will have to leave.
After another wave of clan members came to build a relationship with Feng Yi, a young man walked up to Feng Yi.
"Brother Snake?" The young man spoke with a slight accent and was a little restrained.
"Just call me by my name." Feng Yi said.
The young man thought about the information he had learned. Feng Yi should be a little older than him, so he said:
"Then, Brother Yi."
"Let's talk while sitting down." Feng Yi pointed to the seat next to him.
"Hey."
Feng Shou sat down, "Actually, I wanted to come to see you before the ceremony started, but I didn't meet you."
Before the ceremony started, they rested in that room. He heard that someone took a photo with Feng Yi outside, but when he went there, they had already left.
Feng Shou introduced himself and talked about where he lived now. His family had settled overseas a long time ago, in a tropical area. There is a relatively large orchard at home, and the living conditions are okay.
"In the past years, due to the protection of the ecological environment and the restrictions of laws and regulations, snakes were not allowed to be killed. If they were caught, they could only be thrown far away and released.
"The number was indeed small in the past, but in recent years, it has increased. The frequency of venomous snakes in the orchard is much higher. Snake repellent drugs are okay for a small area, but it is too difficult to operate on a large scale. Weather factors and costs must be considered, and the effect may not be good.
"Before I came here, I checked online. There seems to be a laboratory in the ancestral factory that is researching drugs to safely repel insects and snakes, but those are still in the research and development stage, and I don't know when they will be developed."
The frequency of venomous snakes has increased. If the hired workers in the orchard are bitten, they may not be able to get timely treatment due to distance and local medical conditions.
Antivenom serum and universal drugs for treating snake venom are too expensive and not suitable for where he lives.
Instead of expecting those drugs to drop in price, it is better to think of ways to reduce the probability of venomous snakes appearing in the orchard.
This time I came to participate in the Feng clan gathering. It was rare to meet Feng Yi, who was an expert certified by the Joint Guarantee Bureau. Feng Shou came to ask questions with a try-it mentality. In terms of catching snakes, there are actually powerful people in the area where they live. Therefore, what he wants to solve most now is the problem of venomous snakes. If this cannot be solved, then talk about how to catch snakes.
Feng Yi listened to him carefully and couldn't find a good way for a while.
He was just a snake catcher, not a professional snake repellent. He had no idea about drug configuration and research and development.
Feng Shou had also tried snake repellent powders, and had discussed the pros and cons of this method with Feng Yi.
Besides this, what other methods were there?
Feng Shou looked distressed: "We have tried planting snake repellent plants and raising animals that can repel snakes, but many methods are indeed not suitable for large-scale plantations. I have an area where I grow relatively expensive pollution-free fruits, which are not suitable for spraying drugs."
Feng Yi thought about it, looked at Feng Shou, who was already an adult in front of him, and reached out to take out a copper coin from his pocket.
"I don't have any effective suggestions, so I'll give you a small gift. It may not be able to repel snakes on a large scale, but if you wear it on your body, poisonous snakes will also avoid it."
When Feng Yi was playing with the zodiac coins, he would also incorporate some information molecules in the process of making a layer of patina appear on the surface of the coins.
After all, it was given to children, and it had a certain effect of repelling insects and snakes.
The old flower model that Feng Yi took out now was used for experiments when Feng Yi first tried it, and there are more information molecules integrated into it.
"It... well, it was wrapped with something that repels snakes." Feng Yi said.
"Really?!" Feng Shou was surprised.
He knew that there would be medicine-filled sachets that could repel insects and snakes during the Dragon Boat Festival. Now it seems that even coins can have this effect?
However, many things in the Feng family cannot be speculated by common sense.
Moreover, the one in front of him is just made of copper alloy, and it looks like a newly made object of playfulness, not an antique.
Feng Shou thanked him and accepted it.
Sign in.
There is no rush to owe more, I will adjust my work and rest first.
