88-bearded hand joints and smoke poles

Hexi Corridor

I went to the countryside to come to this clouds and mist. There was a production team with a cliff and a river behind the forest. When I saw this old man, he was already eighty years old, but he still went to the fields to cultivate the land and climbed the mountain to chop firewood. He saw that I was, and did not shake hands with me, but just touched my head and patted me gently a few times, as if to comfort me, but he didn't say a word, just smiled.

At this time, I saw that this Baman Gong was tall, at least about 1.8 meters tall, with a strong body, a face with a Chinese font, and the blue veins on his forehead were particularly conspicuous. He was like Guan Yun’s long beard. His hands were thick and very powerful.

Later I heard from people in our village that this Baman Gong has a very stubborn personality. When he shook hands with him, he would deliberately accumulate strength, which would make you tremble all over the body with pain. You are not easy to vent, so you can only laugh and cry.

Therefore, many people are afraid to shake hands with him. Especially those cadres who come to have children are most afraid of shaking hands with him. Once, the captain of the family planning team stationed in the team shook hands with him. He hated the young white-faced captain who was two fake and two fake, so he shook hands with him hard. The young white-faced captain was almost squeezed out by his tears, but he was embarrassed to get angry, so he had to pretend to be smiling and eat a stuffy basin. From then on, he never dared to shake hands with him.

In addition, he has a long cigarette butt and mouthpiece that is shiny with brass. This cigarette pole is almost as long as his body. He can make crutches and chase dogs. The dry tobacco he rolled was thick and long. If he sucked a long mouthful of dry tobacco on your face, you might have to be in a daze for a day.

Once, Brother Huan was curious and took his cigarette with his cigarette pole, but he was drunk for a day. The next day, he was still drowsy, just like drunk.

Therefore, the men and women in our entire brigade have two fears about him, one is afraid of shaking hands with him, and the other is afraid of him squirting cigarettes.

He is very good to us educated youth and said that we came to the countryside at a young age, which is so pitiful. During the Chinese New Year or other festivals, we often call us to eat and eat daddy. We often bring him some small gifts from the city. Therefore, he has a very harmonious relationship with our educated youth.

He is the oldest in this village and has the highest prestige. He asks him to decide any major issues in the village. Some people in our village call him Baman Gong when they are happy, and call him Baman Gong when they are unhappy, and call him Babeard and a hairy beard when they are unhappy. Anyway, no matter what he is called, he will agree with a smile. It is rare for him to be angry. He felt that calling Baman Gong is no different from calling Babeard, it is just a symbol of title.

No matter what kind of pimples that the child or young man had in the village, even if he had a fever, he would not go to the hospital, but instead asked him to see him. He didn't use any medicine, but instead used a piece of tile to fill it with a little yellow mud, mixed it with a little water, stir it into a mud, apply it around the sores and blisters, and recite a few words of mantra, and it will be cured in less than two days.

If it is a wound, and it is more serious, he will use iron wire to poke out the black e-liquid inside his cigarette pole, carefully apply it to your affected area, and then read a command like "Taishang Laojun, Hua Tuo Master is as anxious as a command". The wound or sucks will heal or disappear within three days.

He will not charge you a penny. If you have good conditions, you can give him a pinch of cigarettes or a pot of wine. If the conditions are not good, he will still smile and cure you with his "obligation".

Once, the old dog in our production team cut the ridge of the field and was suddenly bitten by a highly poisonous chessboard snake strung out about three or four pounds. At that time, his hands were swollen than his thighs, and the black water flowed straight to the bitten place. When the villagers found someone else, he was basically unconscious. The snake was still next to him. The mute beat the snake to death and called someone to gesture. He was completely unconscious. It would be too late to carry him to the hospital at this time. The people in the village immediately found Baman Gong.

Baman Gong saw it and immediately went home to get a seven leaves and one flower from home. He asked someone to grind it hard with a bowl of earth and wine, grinding the wine as if it were yellow soup. Then he divided the ground wine into two parts, one part, one part, which made people pinch his nose and poured into the old house's mouth, and the other part used to wash the wound. Then he twisted off the cigarette butt from his copper mouth cigarette rod, and used a small scoop to take out the black smoke poop inside the cigarette rod and put it in a bowl, and then applied it to the place where the snake bites in the old field. After a while, blood and poisonous water flowed out. In less than an hour, the old farm actually woke up, and the wound on the snake bite seemed a little dry. Bahuzi applied e-liquid again. The next day, he saw that the wound had scarred. In less than a week, the old farm was able to go to the field to work. In order to thank Ba Man Gong, this family invited him to dinner during the holidays. He snatched his cigarette rod and put it in the top eight.

Later I asked Ba Man Gong: "Ba Man Gong, how do you know how to treat snake bites?" Ba Man Gong said: "Seven Leaves and One Flower are specially used to treat snake venom. Smoke shit is actually a treasure. It is also the nemesis of snakes. Seven Leaves and One Flower are attacked inside and outside, and with poison, which snake venom cannot be removed?" From then on, I admire Ba Man Gong's cigarette pole.

Which child in the village has stomachache or diarrhea? As long as he asks his cigarette torn into a bowl of warm water and drink it for the child, the child will jump around in a short while, which is more effective than entering the hospital. I don’t know why his smoke shit is so magical? This is incredible now. Baman Gong is simply a real treasure of our production team and the people in the surrounding slopes. He is a national treasure-level figure in our production team.
