In the village where Tang Yong was located in Baozheng, Zhengyang County, there would often be a team of cavalry, wearing silver armor, armed with swords and spears, robbing villagers at night and robbing villagers of their livestock or property. At that time, dynasties changed, the world was in chaos, and there were wars everywhere. The government had no time to take care of it, and it was difficult to protect itself. The riotous cavalry disappeared and came once every ten days and a half months, which made the villagers unable to guard against it and scared. Many people were forced to drag their families and go to other places to make a living! There were only a dozen families left in the village, all of whom were old and young, who were inconvenient to travel far and did not want to leave their homeland. Everyone gathered together, discussed countermeasures, and issued orders with Tang Yong as leader to resist the bandits together.
After a while, the bandit army came again. Tang Yong led the villagers to resist unsuccessfully, injuring more than a dozen people, but no one died! Just as everyone was disheartened, a Taoist priest came to the village and said he would kill the villagers. When everyone saw the Savior, they all obeyed Him. The first thing the Taoist priest asked the villagers to do was to stab people with straw. Hundreds of them were pierced in two or three days, and they were placed outside the village, and the villagers were asked to offer chicken and duck grain to enlarge the roadside! Everyone didn't understand what he had done. The Taoist priest said to the villagers, whether these bandits are human or demons, I don't know, today I will cast a spell on the grass man, if it is a human, a straw man or a straw man, if it is a ghost demon, the straw man is a god general! But no matter whether it is a human or a ghost, as long as we get the livestock food on the road, we are not in danger! When the villagers heard him, they were relieved.
Tang Yong brought a few strong villagers, and the Taoist priest kept watch at the intersection every night. Sure enough, it didn't take long for the silver-armored bandits to come again. As soon as they entered the village, they saw hundreds of scarecrows eager to move. After a while, they all stood up and said, "Ghost soldiers are here!" After saying this, they rushed towards the group of bandits with their bare hands, and the two sides immediately engaged in battle. The straw soldiers were defeated, and they were all beheaded and turned into piles of straw. The group of bandits walked not far ahead, and when they saw that there was livestock food on the roadside, they greeted each other to collect the goods and turned to leave. The Taoist priest and the villagers hid in the dark, and after the bandits left, they said to everyone, "This is a ghost soldier, and the yin energy is very heavy. '' Tang Yong replied, listening to the older generation, a few decades ago, a rebel army was strangled by officers and soldiers here, and then the body was thrown into the cave in the back mountain. Officers and soldiers also suffered a lot of casualties and were buried outside the village. After hearing what the Taoist priest said, it seems that he has to invite the deceased officers and soldiers to solve this problem! Everyone was shocked.
The Taoist priest asked Tang Yong to move the villagers to the place where the officers and soldiers were buried for a temporary stay. There is an altar to offer sacrifices to the deceased officers and soldiers every day! After seven days, the Taoist priest was overjoyed and said to the crowd, Okay, they promised to help, and they were saved. The villagers were a little incredulous when they were pleasantly surprised. The Taoist priest withdrew from the altar and told everyone to pay attention. One night, the silver-armored ghost soldiers arrived again. Everyone was very scared. I saw the Taoist rush to the graves where the officers and soldiers were buried, chanting words and cursing, and I saw him shout and rise! Sprinkling wine from the altar on the ground, I saw the sky change greatly, the wind was blowing everywhere, and there seemed to be a low groan from the ground. Not long after, an object broke out of the ground. It was the human skeleton, wearing rotting armor and holding a corroded and rusted sword. Who will kill me? The other skeletons echoed, who would kill me? The scene was extremely terrifying, and the Yin Armor Ghost Soldier stopped when he saw this.
The Daoist ran to the skeleton ghost soldiers and shouted with his fingers. The murderer is here, and he is killing the enemy with his hands, when will he wait? After hearing this, the group of skeleton ghost soldiers grinned and roared, and the sound of killing shook the sky. One by one, like wolves and tigers, rushed towards the silver-armored ghost soldiers, and the two soldiers who were killed turned into yellow sand and fell to the ground. You came and went, and they killed until dawn, and then they completely wiped out the silver-armored ghost soldiers. At this time, they only heard the rooster announce the dawn, and the skeleton ghost soldier drilled into the ground again, and the battlefield was calm in an instant, and it seemed that nothing had happened here. After the Daoist priest overcame the ghost soldiers, he said goodbye to everyone. The Taoist priest said that the world is in chaos, and there are many ghosts. Today, I will go to find the ghosts that are causing chaos in the world to prove the right path of heaven and earth! Tang Yong asked again, Taoist priest, please leave your honorific name, so that I can remember your kindness! The Taoist priest laughed, nameless. After saying that, he said goodbye and left. And the ghost soldier who made trouble has never appeared again since then.
