This string of peach wood Buddhist beads was not bought outside, but was made by my grandfather with our own peach tree. Peach wood is also known as "Dragon-Surrendering Wood", and it has an extremely important position in my country's folk culture and beliefs.

Legend has it that Kuafu chased the sun and threw out the sacred wood before he died and turned it into a peach forest. The earliest Spring Festival couplets in my country were made of peach wood boards, also known as peach talismans. For thousands of years, peach wood has been said to cure disasters and avoid evil spirits, and is called the sacred wood.

I remember my grandfather brought it to me with him, saying that he could drive away evil spirits and shock ghosts and bless them with peace, but now it has cracked.

At this time, the ambulance had arrived, and everyone was watching the fun around the child. It seemed that the child was drowning very hard. I don’t know whether he could live. I did what he should do, and the rest would be seen by the doctor.

I took advantage of this skill and saw that no one cared about me, so I hurriedly put on my shoes and socks, and shook my wet hair and walked back. We saved people not to be famous. Besides, everything could happen these days. Now it seems that I saved people. If there is something wrong with this child, God knows whether the child’s parents would blame me for saving people late.

It’s better to do good deeds without leaving a name, so get out of here.

I felt much better and I woke up from the water. After crossing the road, I saw that the community I live in was turning around. Suddenly, someone shouted by the side of the road: "Sir, stay, I see that your holes are dark and your eyes are dizzy. I will lose my fortune in these two days."

I turned my head and found that it was an old man. He had sunglasses on his face, beard, white sweatshirt, and a fan in his hand. It turned out that he was a fortune teller on the street.

We businessmen are most afraid of others saying money, especially from the mouths of fortune tellers. You are a good and bad spirit. When he said this, I got angry and said, "Old man, aren't you blind? Where can I tell that I'm going to lose money? Do you believe it or not, I'll break your broken stall!"

The fortune teller was shocked. He probably had never seen me with such a hot temper. He quickly took off his sunglasses. His eyes were nothing wrong. He was brighter than most people, and he was sly and sloppy. He said, "Oh, when you see that sir is a sensible person, don't be so angry. It's not easy to make a living these days. If you don't pretend to be blind, people don't believe it."

The reason why the blind man said this is because in the past there was a saying that fortune tellers leaked too many secrets, and they would inevitably suffer retribution and were easily destined to be disabled. Therefore, if those fortune tellers in the past were blind and had lame, it proved that they leaked too many secrets and were retribution. However, it also indirectly reflected that this person was able to do accurate calculations, so the fortune teller was particularly popular.

Seeing that he was giving in, I didn't plan to argue with him anymore. After stepping into the community, the man suddenly shouted: "I didn't lie to you. If you don't believe it, you will know in a few days. Come find me when the time comes, I will still set up a stall here." If I hadn't entered the community and were lazy to go back, I really wanted to beat the blind man up.

I quickly threw this matter behind my mind, but now, I was sitting in the office, looking at the messy and empty company, and suddenly remembered the blind man's words three days ago.

I did lose money in just three days, and it was still a big fortune.

My company... went bankrupt.

I didn't run a big company, I rented a big shop in the electronics city. There was a store in front and an office behind. I reselled electronic products. I sold parallel goods, which are commonly known as black goods and fake goods, and I made huge profits. I have indeed made a lot of money in the past two years. However, yesterday, my supplier ran away with goods and lost all my money and took out a lot of money.

I think I, Chen Xuan, have been hard when I was a child, and even harder when I grew up. Now I have finally relied on my own to work hard, why did I get into such a thing again? Could it be that fortune teller really have two tricks?

At this time, the phone rang. When I saw the number, my scalp was blown out, and I was here to ask for debt.

I quickly turned off the phone, but I didn't answer it, and I felt like a bossless fly. The money was compensated, but I still have to live. How can I pay back the debt of nearly two million? How should I live in the future?

You know, since the goods I shipped are all parallel, it is inevitable that I will come into contact with "disgraceful" friends, and the debt I owe is involved in each other among these friends. You have me in your interests and I have you in my heart. Their power is very big in Shenzhen, and I don't think I have the ability to repay it.

I remembered the fortune teller, so I washed my face, changed my clothes and returned to the community. Sure enough, I saw the fake blind man not far away. At this moment, I really wanted to kick him and vent my resentment, but reason told me that now is not the time to do something.

I stood in front of his divination stall, and the fortune teller took off his sunglasses. He seemed to have expected that I would come, and he winked and said, "Sir, I'm right."

I said, "Don't talk nonsense, tell me what's going on, is there any solution? As long as it works, money will not be missing from you." In fact, all my assets are now used to pay off my debts, and there are only about 2,000 yuan left on me.

The fortune teller looked around and saw that he was very sneaky. Seeing that no one was there, he said, "I said, don't disbelief, you are hitting a ghost."

If someone usually says this, I will definitely not believe it, but at this moment, my heart skipped a beat and I suddenly remembered the thing in the river.

Seeing that I did not change my face, the fortune teller immediately said, "It seems that you know in your heart that if I am not wrong, you are hitting a water ghost. This water ghost stays in place and cannot move. Although it is impossible to harm you, as long as it is a ghost, it will have three bad luck, so it will be crushed to death. It is easy to crack it. Your home is too close to the water ghost, and you just need to move a house, and it will be done. However, if you want to turn your bad luck over, you have to ask the water ghost for help."

Seek ghosts for help?

If it weren't for the fortune teller's statement that it was exactly the same as what I encountered, I really wanted to slap him: Isn't this cheating me if I ask for help from a ghost?

The fortune teller was angry when he saw me, so he said, "Don't believe it, do you know where the predecessor of this river was?"

Seeing that he was trying to show off, I couldn't help but want to kill him, and said, "Don't look at me from outside, if you want to talk about the history of this place, it's so familiar that it can't be more familiar. The predecessor of this river was called Huiyong River, which was a big river. Many people died. Later, the reform and opening up and the river channel was changed, so it was reduced to its current scale."

The fortune teller said: "You only know one thing, not the second, not the second, not the third. There is also an alias in the predecessor of this river, called Mazu River, and there was a Mazu Temple by the river. During the Cultural Revolution, the temple was pushed to it, and many ancient objects in the temple that had been in the past sank into the river. One of the things is the "Red Cat" in the temple. What is this Red Cat? It was a sea beast that could swallow wind and waves in ancient times, but the sea beast was pushed into the river and could not turn over. Do you think it could not get angry?"

I hissed, recalled the smell, and said, "Old man, are you saying that the one who harmed me at that time was not a water ghost, but that cat?"

The fortune teller said: "Whether you are a cat or a water ghost, if it is not eliminated, your fortune will definitely not be prosperous in this life, and you will only become more and more unlucky in the future. I think you are also poor now, and our Taoism also emphasizes saving the world and saving people. In this way, you go into the water to catch the cat's body, and I will take it home to worship it to resolve its violence. In this way, you can turn your fortune, and I will have great merits, so I will not accept your money to relieve the disaster. How about it?"

I saw that the fortune teller was very good at speaking, and it was just in line with my situation these two days. Although I didn’t believe in evil before, I couldn’t help but believe in it now.

But I have been working hard in the mall for many years and asked: "Since it is a great merit, why don't you go there in person or go with me?"

The fortune teller seemed to have expected that I would ask this question. After laughing a few times, he said, "Don't you know that even if you meet the monsters in the river, Marshal Tianpeng will be the vanguard! I'm not good at water..."

Damn, it turned out that it was because I couldn't swim. After asking this, he even made him curse Zhu Bajie in a corner... But now is not the time to care about these small details. I thought about it for a while, and there seemed to be nothing else suspicious, so I said, "Okay, I'll act tonight, but you have to use a trick, when to go and what to bring? We can't fight an unprepared battle."

The fortune teller gave me some advice, at night, when the moon just passed the treetops; when the red rope tied to ghosts, and nine cross knots... Anyway, I have been talking a lot.

That night, I brought a bundle of red ropes and sneaked into the bottom of the river while there was no one around.
