Chapter 157: Smashing the field
As for my depression, the He brothers saw it in their eyes, so they explained to us in a whisper that Xiangjiang and the mainland are different, and the social system is different, so the whole social environment is different.
Take the problem of ultra-high housing prices as an example, does Xiangjiang have no land? Yes, there are still large forests, there is no money, the wealthy families are richer than the other, but why not build houses, because this will lose a lot of profits, and those who deserve the benefits are unwilling, so Xiangjiang would rather spend a very high price to reclaim land than develop it, and the people will suffer, and it has nothing to do with those rich people.
Therefore, these well-mixed witches and gods are actually the middle class here in Xiangjiang, but they still do not have a spacious house, and the first problem that mainland people have to overcome after coming is the problem of too small a house.
"Capitalism of All Evils"
After listening to their explanation, I could only curse in a low voice, the people in Xiangjiang are bitter, the middle class lives in a smaller place than the rural pigsty, can you not be bitter.
Our conversation was overheard by a girl in the room, who rolled her eyes at us with a look of contempt, but she didn't say anything.
After waiting for a while, the door of the room opened, and a man and a woman walked out of it with a worried expression, and walked straight out of the door, and the girl let us in.
After the He brothers pushed me into the door, I saw an incense hall, the light inside was very dim, and a god I didn't know was enshrined on the table, and the smell of sandalwood in it was very strong, but the sandalwood he used was a good color, a refreshing feeling, and had the effect of calming the nerves and calming the mind.
"Who of you asks for things"
An old voice sounded from the corner, and we saw an old woman coming over, and I looked her up and down, she was not young, she was estimated to be in her sixties and seventies, and her back was a little hunched, but her eyes were bright.
"I, I'm here for help"
"What to ask for"
"Ask for peace of mind"
"Peace of mind, reason is peace of mind"
"That's right, then I'll ask for a future future, I came to Xiangjiang to do one thing, this matter is ethereal, it makes me very worried"
"Yes, the birthday is up"
"I don't have a birthday, I don't remember, and no one tells me"
I shook my head, joking, this thing is the biggest secret for us, and one character can make a master deduce a lot of things.
"It's okay if you don't have it, wait a minute and give it to me"
The old woman didn't ask for it, not everyone knew the eight characters, she re-lit a piece of incense, then took out a yellow paper talisman, lit it and circled around the incense a few times, then pinched it in a cup of tea, stretched out her hand, let me hold her hand, and then let me drink the cup of talisman water.
I smiled, didn't refuse, drank it, it's not like I haven't drunk this thing, Liu Laodao made me drink it.
I did as she did, drank the tea and then stretched out my hand and grabbed her hand, and within a few seconds, the old woman immediately trembled, and the He brothers were not surprised, as if they were used to seeing this kind of occasion.
However, in a second, I saw a light from the idol on the offering table, which struck me, but the light immediately bounced away and then disappeared, and the old woman, like an electric shock, let go of my hand, took several steps back, and hit the pillar directly, and then suddenly opened her eyes and looked at me angrily.
"Fellow Daoist, are you here to play today?"
"Misunderstanding, I'm not here to play, I'm here to ask for help"
I'm a little dazed, what's wrong with me, when did I get so awesome, this goddess's family should be supporting some livestock immortals, just like the kind of horse immortals in the northeast, but now they can't get close to me.
"Ask for trouble, your skills are much higher than ours, and you still come to me?
"It's really not, or I'll report the eight characters, you will calculate?"
"Count, hehe, you have achieved success in cultivation, let me count, do you want me to fight back and die, you are so vicious"
"Looks like I can't explain it clearly, let's go"
I said to the He brothers, it's over, the misunderstanding is too deep, and I explain a fart, and the more I describe it, the darker it becomes.
"Don't go, report your name, let me see where you are sacred"
"Hurry up, hurry up, that old woman is crazy"
I hurriedly urged the He brothers, I am not stupid, I still signed up, waiting for others to come to the door to retaliate.
The He family brothers had a big head, put down some money, and hurriedly pushed me to run, if I didn't run, I would be beaten by the group, this building, more than a dozen such companies, but they are all acquaintances.
"Mr. Liu, do you want to see anything else?"
"Don't watch it, don't watch it"
I shook my head, if I look at it again, it will really be a smashing field, I didn't know that I was so awesome before, but now I know, I think it's still the matter of the catastrophe, it seems that this sin is not in vain.
"Then let's go eat, I know there's a very nice restaurant"
"Okay, let's go"
So the He brothers took me to eat Xiangjiang food again, well, the taste seems to be no different from Yangcheng, they are all about the same, but the price is much higher.
The He brothers are very qualified tour guides, and they have thoroughly studied the allusions of Xiangjiang and everything, and even the stories in some snacks can be told, so the process of eating is very pleasant.
After eating, the He brothers sent me back again, they also live in the same community, just downstairs from us, saying that if there is any need to call them at any time, they will come immediately.
In fact, now I don't need to be served by others, and although I still have bandages on my body, I can barely walk around, and my recovery is still accelerating.
I called Liu Laodao and asked him when he would come back, but Liu Laodao told me that he would not come back at night and that he did not know what he was doing.
I talked to Ami and the others on the phone, reported that they were safe, and then read quietly, went to bed after being tired, and the first day in Xiangjiang passed like this.
The feng shui master gathering starts tomorrow, today is the last day, shortly after dawn Liu Laodao came back with a tired body, by the way, there are guests visiting in the afternoon, let me not go away, he wants to introduce people to me.
To be honest, I don't have much interest in Xiangjiang, and it seems to me that a big city full of high-rise buildings looks pretty much the same.
So I rejected the suggestion that the He brothers should take me out to play, and I didn't let them stay with me all the time and let them go about their own business, but they also refused.
I'm afraid that they will be too idle, so I will give them something to do, such as helping me inquire about the feng shui master's gathering, the two of them are extremely efficient, and after more than an hour, they got me an official news of the feng shui master's meeting, and the private gossip is not so fast.
I read it again, and there is nothing good about the official news, mainly to introduce the origin of the feng shui master gathering, the initiators, and the big people who participated in the previous sessions.
It is said that the feng shui master gathering has been held for more than ten years, once a year, before it was only initiated by some highly respected feng shui masters themselves, and it has only been slowly formalized in recent years, and it has been merged with the previous small feng shui master association and become a metaphysical association.
After the formalization, there began to be an honorary chairman, a committee, and ordinary members, as well as invited guests, and the committee presided over the daily affairs of the association, including the entry and exit of ordinary members, and the committee was also elected by ordinary members.
Theoretically, all metaphysical enthusiasts can participate and become ordinary members, but in fact this is not the case, the metaphysical association in Xiangjiang is local in the end, and those whose household registration is not in Xiangjiang can not enter at will, they have to go through layers of tests, and those who are not really talented and talented cannot enter.
The invited guests are special, there are no major restrictions, as long as they are social elites, such as those wealthy families who provide huge sums of money every year, or the heads of some sects in the mainland, the presidents of Buddhist associations, etc., of course, they are just here to join in the fun, and will not really participate in the decision.
And Liu Laodao got the quota of this invited guest, this quota is naturally a very simple thing for some people, and they will even take the initiative to send it to the door, but for us, it is a lot of hardship, because we are unknown, there is no fame, and it takes a lot of effort to pass the test of those people.
At noon, the guest Liu Laodao said arrived, it was the old man who had a relationship in Yangcheng before, it was a very honest old man, with a kind face, soft-spoken, no matter who he faced, he looked like he was listening carefully.
The old man's surname is Ye, his name is Ye Wenbin, Liu Laodao asked me to call him Ye Lao, but he asked me to call him Teacher Ye, saying that he has been a teacher for many years and is used to this title.
Ye Lao is not young, and he is estimated to be about the same as Liu Laodao, but he is still clear-minded, articulate, very good at speaking, and easy to make a good impression, looking like a polite literati.
After chatting for a few words, Ye Lao inevitably talked about the issue of red feng shui masters, and he also told me that in fact, he was the second generation of red feng shui masters, and the first generation had an extremely powerful background.
