Chapter 115: Mr. Taoist Master and the Bamboo Shell (1)

Gu Feifei saw that the Chi Bamboo Forest was densely packed with mountains, as if it was not easy for people to get in, Gu Feifei said: "Brother Tian, if there is a person in this Chi Bamboo Forest, I am still a little scared!" ”

At this time, Liu Junwen listened to Gu Feifei's words, looked at the others, and saw that they were all looking at Chi Bamboo Forest, and no one went to Chi Bamboo Forest, so he said: "Fei Fei, the atmosphere in the bamboo forest is different for different types of bamboo, this Chi Bamboo Forest has a kind of gloomy, and there is a kind of tranquility in the Nan Bamboo Forest and Jing Bamboo Forest, wait a while, you have to look at other bamboo forests, you slowly understand!"

"Junwen, how did you know this?" Gu Feifei spoke softly, completely losing the tone she had when she talked to Liu Junwen two days ago.

"Fei Fei, I am also a person in this mountain, I often went to all kinds of bamboo forests to play when I was very young, especially what I remember is that after finding the bamboo sunflower in the bamboo forest, the joy, those bamboo sunflowers are real wild sunflowers, take them home, open the soup to eat, and now I think of the pure fragrance, all of which still make people swallow saliva in the stomach!" Liu Junwen said.

"Junwen, are there any wild bamboo sunflowers?" Gu Feifei asked.

"Fei Fei, the real wild bamboo sunflower is hard to come by, and now the artificially cultivated bamboo sunflower can be bought everywhere and can be eaten, but it seems to have changed its taste!" Liu Junwen said.

"Junwen, the artificially cultivated ones may taste a little worse, I have also eaten them, and I think they are very delicious, but, Junwen, I heard that the artificially cultivated and wild ones of the bamboo sunflower are similar in terms of nutritional content!" Gu Feifei said.

Tian Limai saw Gu Feifei and Liu Junwen talking, although there were no hot words of intimacy between them, but the tone revealed intimate warmth!

Tian Limai walked into a pile of Chi Bamboo, took out a piece of the bamboo shoot shell at the root of the Chi Bamboo, he just took it out, Luo Sisi was about to reach out and take it, Tian Limai hurriedly said: "Luo Sisi, don't move, be careful of the cone!"

Luo Sisi quickly retracted her hand, and she asked, "Brother, do you want to cone your hand!?"

Tian Limai turned the bamboo shoot shell to the back, pointed to the tiny hair needles stuck to the back of the bamboo shoot shell and said: "It's these small hair needle cones, after the cone, they are immediately red and swollen, the pain is unbearable, and the itching is extremely extreme!"

"Brother, then you are still going to get bamboo shoot shells?" Roth said.

Tian Limai pulled a handful of weeds on the ground, wiped off the needles on the back of the bamboo shoot shell, touched the bamboo shoot shell with his hand and said: "Luo Sisi, you don't know this, this bamboo shoot shell has a great effect in the past!"

Gu Feifei was listening, and came over and asked, "Brother Tian, what is the effect of this bamboo shoot shell?" Is it still big?"

"Sister Feifei, according to my grandfather, in the past, people in the mountains were inconvenient to transport, and everything was self-sufficient, but two kinds of things had to be picked outside the mountains, one was salt, the other was cloth, and the people who went outside to pick these two substances, we called pickers, people who picked up forces wore straw sandals or barefoot in summer, but not in winter, and they had to wear shoes in winter, otherwise they would be able to pick up their feet if they were frozen. At that time, according to my grandfather, there were no rubber shoes, no leather shoes, sneakers, elastic shoes, etc., and the shoes worn by the people who picked up the power were all cloth shoes made by their own right customers!

"The first process of making shoes is to cut the shoe sample, the shoe sample is cut with this bamboo shoot shell, and after cutting, it will be made with cloth according to the shoe pattern, and the cloth shoes will not be out of shape at all, and the size and length are suitable for the feet!" Tian Limai explained.

Gu Feifei took the bamboo shoot shell from Tian Limai's hand and looked at it, and said: "I didn't expect such an inconspicuous thing to play such a big role in the life of the people in the mountains, Brother Tian, is there anyone still using this bamboo shoot shell to cut shoes?"

"Sister Feifei, now that there are no people who even make shoes, how can anyone cut shoes with bamboo shoot shells? You can buy any kind of shoes when you wear shoes now, but you can't buy straw sandals and cloth shoes like those made back then!" Tian Limai said.

"Brother Tian, did you wear that kind of cloth shoes?" Gu Feifei asked.

"Sister Feifei, I wore a pair, which my mother made for me, and it is very comfortable to wear on my feet! Also, my grandfather wore a pair, and I really haven't seen anyone else wear it!" Tian Limai said.

Gu Feifei turned her head again and asked Liu Junwen: "Junwen, have you worn it?" ”

"Fifi, I've never worn it." After Liu Junwen finished speaking, he added: "However, my one hundred and two-year-old grandfather only wears those cloth shoes, and he doesn't wear other shoes, he bought him a pair of fur shoes that year, he said that it was very heavy, he couldn't lift his feet, and he didn't ask for it!"

Gu Feifei looked at the bamboo shoot shell in her hand again and again, and she asked, "Does this bamboo shoot shell have any other purpose?"

Liu Junwen shook his head, Yang Tingting, Luo Sisi, and Sun Junli only looked at it in a daze, and they didn't know what use the bamboo shoot shell was!

"Sister Feifei, this bamboo shell can also be used to scare people!" Tian Limai smiled.

"Scary? How scary? What are you scared of? Mai Di!" Liu Junwen asked puzzled.

"Brother Junwen, haven't you heard of this 'Dragon Gate Array'!?" Tian Limai asked.

"What 'Dragon Gate Array'? Mai Di, I haven't heard of it, you can tell me about it!" Liu Junwen said.

So, Tian Limai told the story to everyone again.

Tian Limai said that this story is about Mr. Taoist who pretends to be a god and a ghost, and he has also heard from others, and it is not clear how true this story is.

In the past, Mr. Taoist was rampant in the countryside, they claimed to be able to pass "yin and yang", exorcism and ghost-hunting, the child had a disease, those Mr. Taoist teachers rushed to the door when they heard the wind, saying that the child was "gone", or "met a ghost", "fell into the evil", etc., said that the sky was wild, so that the family carried a heavy psychological burden, that "ghost" and that "evil" no one had ever seen, seeing that the child was seriously ill, had to be suspicious, so they had to ask them to come to the door to exorcise ghosts and catch ghosts!

With the opportunity to catch ghosts, there is an opportunity to cheat money, the Taoist master comes to the door to do the "law", silently reciting the "law" that no one understands, the money is easy to get in hand, the Taoist master takes the money and leaves, if the child's illness is cured, the Taoist master will brag that he drove the ghost away; If the child dies because of the delay in treatment due to doing "Dharma rituals", the Taoist master will say that the child only has such a long lifespan, and that the child's parents owed the child an account in their previous life, and that the child came to "ask for the debt", and that the parents would vomit and be sad, and some would say that the dead "child" came to wear "flower clothes!"

I don't know how many people's lives have been lost by these evil acts of the Taoist masters, so some people have a grudge against the Taoist master and decide to play a prank on Mr. Taoist!

One day, after a Taoist master did a "magic service" for a family, he was blowing how he could fight ghosts, catch ghosts, and what kind of skills he had, and his spells were strong, and a person approached Mr. Taoist and said: "You said that you can fight ghosts, catch ghosts, what does that ghost look like, we have never seen it, and now it is late, if you can go back at night alone, we believe that you can catch ghosts, and ghosts are afraid of you!"

Mr. Daoist thought to himself, anyway, he had already been cheated of his money, and he was just about to go home, in fact, even Mr. Daoist himself understood that there would be any ghosts in this world, and ghosts were all artificially created, and it just happened that some people used the so-called "ghosts" to defraud money.

The Taoist master smiled, and in order to defraud himself of more money in the future, he said, "We often walk at night, pass through the cemetery, and recite the mantra in our mouths, and ghosts cannot get close!"

The man said, "We know that your spells are so strong that no evil spirit can repay you, but we want you to go home at night, try to come and see us!"

In fact, the man had already thought of a way to "cure" Mr. Daoshi, and as he spoke, he quietly sewed two bamboo shoot shells with threads on the clothes behind Mr. Daoshi's back!

Mr. Daoist was about to leave, and the man said to Mr. Daoist: "In order to prove that you really went home, you didn't hide in another house as soon as you went out, I will go and give you a ride!" In fact, that person was afraid that Mr. Daoist would hide in another house, but he was afraid that the bamboo shoot shell sewn behind Mr. Daoist would make a sound, and he would find out, so he sent him to hold the two bamboo shoot shells with his hands first, lest Mr. Daoist leave, and the bamboo shoot shell will immediately make a sound, so that Mr. Daoist will find out!

The man held the two bamboo shoot shells behind Mr. Daoshi's back, and after walking about four or five miles with Mr. Daoshi, he said goodbye to Mr. Daoshi!

When Mr. Daoist just broke up with someone, he walked slowly, and the sound of the two bamboo shoot shells behind him was smaller, and to Mr. Daoist's ears, he thought that there was a wind blowing the leaves behind him!

After walking out for a few miles, you have to pass through a grave, although Mr. Taoist thinks that he can fight ghosts, but he knows his own little pounds, fighting ghosts and exorcism is a "ghost trick" to defraud others of money, he has never fought a real ghost, and he has never really driven out any ghosts, those chattering spells, I don't understand what I say, the "token" that I regard as a magic weapon is actually an old piece of wood with a few mutations written on it!

But no matter what, this tomb still looks a little eerie at night, especially what Mr. Taoist remembers is that the middle-aged man he helped to do the dojo not long ago died and was buried here, the middle-aged man was lying in the coffin, I don't know why his eyes were half-open and half-closed, as if there was something uncompetitive!

Mr. Daoist unconsciously looked at the graves, but there was nothing on them, only the gentle sound of the leaves being blown by the night wind!
