There are two families behind the old home. Neighbor? Then I asked, there are neighbors everywhere. Don't worry, these two neighbors of mine are not ordinary. The magical and strange stories that happened around them are probably unique in the world. Don't be anxious, just listen to me and tell you slowly.
My home is in a relatively large village in southwestern Shandong. Everyone knows that in the past, the wealthy families settled down early and lived in a good location, right in the center of the village. It is said that the wealthy family surnamed Fan was a prominent local family in the Qing Dynasty. It had a prosperous population, connected by roads, countless money and grain, and boundless acres of land. Most of the people in a radius of more than ten miles were his family's tenants. The Fan family had no worries about food and drink and lived a prosperous life for generations. , the first local household. The road in our place is called Fanche Road, the well is called Fanjiajing, and the pit is called Fanjiakeng. Everything for public use starts with the word Fan. Except for the temple in the village, the most discussed thing when we have dinner is whose family grows the Fan family. How much land, how good the harvest is, how much rent you have to pay. Don't tell me, this famous family has mysteriously declined in just a few decades. It's really weird. The family is ruined and people are dying. The land is sparse and the people are sparse. The population is only a few dozen now, and generations of people are mentally ill and have few deaths. The people there were very superstitious. Seeing the decline of the family, Mr. Fan felt sorry for his ancestors, so he invited Yin Yang Sheng to come and see Feng Shui and serve him delicious food and drinks. Not to mention that Mr. was really capable. , walked around Fan's house, and then said to Mr. Fan in a serious manner: "It's not a big deal. You and your neighbors have a conflict. Seeing how pious you are, I will tell you the truth." "Is your neighbor to the east surnamed Guo?" "Yes." Mr. Fan opened his mouth and said, "What? His family came here to beg for food, and they rented my land. They were just next door to the east. The old man went to see him. Poor, let him work in my house to support the family. What, are you going to conflict with his family? ""Yeah" Yin Yangsheng stroked his goatee and said in a mysterious voice: "Guo (pot) steaming (rice) fan" Ah, there is his family but not yours!" "Oh, what's wrong, my temporary kindness ruined my own family. At that time, he fled here alone. I saw him pitifully, but I didn't expect that he took advantage of my family. , we got married after a few years, and they gave birth to four sons in a row, all of them were strong and strong, and all of them were experts at work. Life was getting better and better, and they all had a family. It seemed that we really couldn’t let them We are planting our land, what should we do? Sir, is there any way to solve it?" Looking at the pitiful look of Mr. Fan, Yin Yangsheng thought for a while and twirled his fingers as if it was something to do. After a while, he opened his narrowed eyes. "There is a way to solve it, but it's a bit immoral!" Upon hearing this, Mr. Fan's family was as eager as a drowning man grabbing a life-saving straw. He said earnestly, "Sir, if you can solve this disaster, I will definitely give you a generous gift. I hope you will not hesitate to teach me and give me some pointers." "Okay," Yin Yangsheng stroked his goatee, narrowed his eyes for a while and said, "I'll give you some advice." The youngest son’s children all have nicknames that are derogatory. Just smash his family’s pot (Guo) into pieces and smash them up.”
When Old Mrs. Fan heard about the derogatory names, he As long as the ancestors' property can be preserved and the Feng Shui of the Guo family can be broken, it will be fine. So the two children of the third child were nicknamed "Steel Egg" and "Steel Cone" and cursed bitterly in their hearts: What a good Guo family. , eat my Fan family’s food, wear my Fan family’s clothes, farm my Fan family’s land, but secretly do harm to my Fan family, I must vent my anger, I must give him the blame (Guo) Chiseled, chiseled.
Sure enough, in the following decades, things were calm, and the Fan family's business prospered again, while the Guo family's fortunes declined. First, the Guo family's eldest son, Guo, who was in his prime, lost his appetite due to the three-year natural disaster. They were so hungry that they starved to death. Soon, Mrs. Guo also died inexplicably in her courtyard. She must have died of hunger and edema.
The Guo family, who had been living a peaceful life, suddenly encountered this unexpected event. They felt bad. They burned incense and worshiped Buddha. In desperation, they also invited a Yin-Yang student to come and see it. I didn’t know that the Feng Shui master at that time was really capable. Yin Yangsheng asked the Guo family’s birth date and asked some indirect questions about the neighbors. Then he smiled and said, “I’m not trying to pick a fight with you. You’ve fallen into the trap of the Fan family in the west. He plotted to find someone to break the feng shui of your family. Fortunately, you found out early, otherwise your whole family would suffer. He used his son's nickname to smash the rice steaming pot (Guo) in your family. "What should I do? Please help me, sir." The old man from the Guo family was so anxious that he wanted to kowtow to Yin Yang. Looking at the Guo family's anxious look. Yin and Yang laughed evilly, "Hmph, it's easy to handle. You just pick a tough boy from your neighbor to the west and give him a cheap nickname of "Iron Mountain". With him in the middle, what kind of "steel cone" and "steel cone" "They couldn't smash the eggs anymore, and their efforts were in vain and self-defeating." When they were done, the old man from the Guo family sent Yin Yangsheng away with great gratitude.
Coincidentally, between their two families, our Zhang family has a boy who is more than ten years old. He cries loudly all day long and often makes the neighbors uneasy at night. So the old Guo family It's very useful to call little "Iron Mountain" when you meet and wink the child's eyes. At that time, children from poor families did not have big names and had many nicknames. They mainly wanted to be cheap so that they could make a living. Over time, they were called by others.
Well, you say it’s strange or not, since there was this iron mountain between the two families, the Guo family has been quiet for a while. The eldest of the four sons of the Guo family was drafted into the army, became a regiment-level cadre, and became an instructor in the military academy.
And something happened to the Fan family again. Something happened to the Fan family's "steel egg". When he was in his teens, he suddenly became stupid. He shouted whatever the kids on the street asked him to do, and he called people daddy all day long. Called Grandpa. The second child, "Steel Cone," is also tall and stupid, and his brain is like a muscle. He is so stupid that he has not even married a wife. It seems that the incest is about to end, and the Fan family is anxious again. , and invited the disciple of Yin Yangsheng over. At that time, the Yin Yangsheng who was doing Feng Shui for the Fan family had passed away. This apprentice's skills are not inferior to those of his master. He pinches his fingers and says, "The Guo family has also hired someone." The "iron mountain" in the middle separates your family's "steel cone" and "steel egg" from his family's disaster. It has been resolved. The evil star has come to your Fan Mansion again. Don’t be anxious. I have a way to destroy the Guo family." The old man of the Fan family was overjoyed when he heard this. He nodded and bowed, passing the cigarette and wine, "You are here. The Zhang family found a child named "Shitou" and smashed his pot (Guo) with "Stone" across the mountain to solve the problem.
Well, you say it’s magical or not, it’s just destiny. At that time, he was already engaged to the female president of the local commune, and he planned to get married when he was going to visit relatives at the end of the year. Guo The whole family happily promoted their son's abilities. Soon, the eldest son of the Guo family fell in love with the daughter of the military commander. The already engaged son of the Guo family abandoned the president out of a sense of superiority, and fell in love with the daughter of the military commander. Once they are engaged, the Guo family's face will be prominent in the local area. Even the cadres in the township and county looked at them differently. When the Guo family went out, they looked up at the sky instead of the ground. It was as if the Guo family had just got lucky and became a prominent figure in the local area. Just when the Guo family's son was talking to the head of the military region When the marriage was about to take place, the children of the Guo family were overjoyed and lived uncontrollably. They suddenly suffered from mental illness and fell from heaven to hell. They became disabled people who could not take care of themselves and were transferred to the county. He worked as a casual worker in the Water Conservancy Bureau and took care of himself at home. His monthly salary was taken away by his second brother. When his old man passed away, he didn’t even know how to cry. He wore nondescript clothes all day long and sometimes put his shoes on his head. Sometimes he puts socks on his hands and looks crazy all day long, giving his second son a money tree out of thin air. The second son in his family has two sons and two daughters. Now his son has three daughters, but no boy. The couple groaned and sighed in sorrow all day long, and their days passed in a listless way. However, the "steel cone" of the Fan family in the west was matched by someone and married a disabled lame man who weighed more than 200 kilograms. The Fan family, which had no hope at first, also succeeded. The fat daughter-in-law helped the Fan family and gave birth to a baby. They have a son and a daughter, and the child looks like a tiger-like head. No matter how it is passed down to this day, the Fan family still considers itself an old family with a successor. And the Guo family has never been so prosperous since then.
Believe it or not, this story absolutely happened in our place, and everyone knows it!
