Chapter 30 Mystery and Hypocrisy are broken

Yuan Xiaosheng didn't expect that this old man would be so good at acting. But if you think about it, a Taoist priest who makes a living by pinching words and divination all the year round, and makes a small Jade Emperor Temple so fragrant, and can hook up with a woman from a good family, must have his advantages. The set of fortune-telling skills, the three things of deceiving Huang, cheating Huang, and asking for Huang, must have been cultivated to the point of perfection, not to mention Zhao Xuedong, that is, Sun Yimin, the secretary of the county party committee, is here, if he has a lot of thoughts and an unpredictable future, he will inevitably fall into his way.

Zhao Xuedong took two steps forward and asked eagerly, "Does the old immortal have a way to crack it?" ”

Seeing that Zhao Xuedong had already entered the trap, Lao Dao pretended to be deep, and did not answer Zhao Xuedong's words, turned around and made a gesture of invitation to Zhao Xuedong and said: "If you don't dislike it, please ask the nobles to go to the small temple to talk." If you can get the protection of the Jade Emperor Zhenjun, the noble person will definitely be able to turn evil into good fortune and get out of the predicament. The old man said as he walked forward and led the way in front.

After all, Zhao Xuedong is still a mortal, he can't withstand the temptation of power, if there is a glimmer of hope, he is still very eager to know what his future is, and he also made a gesture of invitation: "Old ...... Immortals please! ”

At this point, Yuan Xiaosheng's task was completed, and he followed behind the two without speaking.

Lao Dao led Zhao Xuedong to the Jade Emperor Palace, handed the three sticks of high incense to Zhao Xuedong's hands, lit a pile of yellow watches, put them in the brazier, folded his hands, closed his eyes and muttered two sentences. Zhao Xuedong ignited the high incense in his hand in the brazier, bowed a few times, and inserted it into the ding, for a while, the cigarette smoke was swirling, and even the people's mood was brought into a certain underworld realm.

After burning the incense, Lao Dao introduced Zhao Xuedong into the side hall. Yuan Xiaosheng can't go in anymore. Standing outside the door and waiting, by the way, I admired the stillness of the Jade Emperor Temple.

When the Jade Emperor Temple was rebuilt, only the Xiajialing Village family contributed and the nearby villages donated, and the money raised was not much. So the temple was not built very well. Most of them picked up the materials that had been dismantled before, re-flipped them, and everything was fine. Bricks, tiles, sand and stone will inevitably mix the old and the new, and the craftsmen invited are not professionals, some of the places where the original carved beams and paintings are filled, and those that are not have to be vacant, and the asymmetrical places are not in the few, making this Jade Emperor Temple look a little nondescript.

Fortunately, the few pines and cypresses left in the early years are still safe and sound, and those nondescript places are more or less covered.

Yuan Xiaosheng took a turn in the courtyard, looked at the Jade Emperor Palace, and went to the backyard along the corner gate. I don't want to hear the sound of washing clothes inside as soon as I enter the corner door. Standing up for a moment, thinking about it, I immediately understood that this must be the voice of the widow in Xiajialing helping Lao Dao wash clothes. I had the heart to stop, and I was driven by curiosity, and I thought for a moment, always wanting to see what kind of good woman this old way had seduced, or I walked over with the sound.

When I went out of the corner gate, walked five or six steps, and went around a few mountain trees that I couldn't name, I saw a woman, sitting upright beside the spring water that was bubbling out, and she was not afraid of the cold, she rolled up her sleeves, and put a washboard next to a big stone to wash her clothes, and there were already several washed robes on the stone.

The woman wore a big red satin cotton jacket on her upper body, a pair of dark blue jeans on the lower body, the jeans were pulled up, revealing a section of red autumn pants, her hair was black, her skin was ruddy, and her figure was slightly burly.

The woman looked up and saw Yuan Xiaosheng, but she didn't shy away from it, and smiled: "You're here to ask for a hexagram." How did you get to the back of here? ”

Yuan Xiaosheng was a little embarrassed to ask, and smiled: "I have a friend who came to ask for a hexagram, I have nothing to do, just take a look." ”

The woman didn't stop what she was doing, and said while washing her clothes: "I see that you are a cadre, and you are here to ask about the future, right?" I tell you, man's destiny is predestined, and the destiny of peace is not forced, there is a certain number of rich and poor, and evil and good will be retributed. The living must be calm, settle their destiny, go with the flow, as long as they can be worthy of their hearts, they are better than anything else. ”

Yuan Xiaosheng couldn't imagine that this woman could say such things, and it is estimated that before following the old way, she must have had an unsatisfactory life experience, and she could only praise: "What the eldest sister said is really a wise saying." ”

The woman smiled and said, "What wise words can I say as a country woman, but a few words of relief." You better let him show you, he is the one who descends to the earth and sees through the world."

Yuan Xiaosheng also knew that the "he" in the woman's mouth must be the old way, so he nodded and smiled: "My friends and I are here to admire it." ”

After two more gossips, there was nothing more to say. Yuan Xiaosheng walked around the backyard, feeling that the time was almost up, Zhao Xuedong should have come out of the old Taoist room, and said goodbye to the woman and left.

Coming from the corner gate, I heard the voice of the old man in the house talking to Zhao Xuedong has become louder, and he knew that Zhao Xuedong was about to leave, so he stood in the courtyard and waited. Sure enough, within a few minutes, Zhao Xuedong said some words of thanks, and was sent out by the old Taoist.

didn't want to just get out of the old door, Zhao Xuedong's face immediately froze, one after the other, it seemed to be completed in an instant, and there was not even an overkill in the middle.

When he went out of the temple gate, there were already people waiting outside the door, and Zhao Xuedong didn't say anything to the old way, and got into the car without saying a word. Yuan Xiaosheng immediately understood what Zhao Xuedong meant, and he didn't say anything to Lao Dao, and turned to leave. Despite this, it still attracted the attention of those good men and women who came to ask for hexagrams.

At this time, the sun has risen slowly from the southeast, the morning of winter, giving people an extremely cold feeling, facing the warm sunshine, walking along the mountain road, Zhao Xuedong has never said a word, as if he is thinking about something. Yuan Xiaosheng sat in the passenger seat and scanned Zhao Xuedong's face from time to time, hoping to find some information through Zhao Xuedong's expression.

However, from Zhao Xuedong's tone before leaving with Lao Dao, Yuan Xiaosheng had already faintly felt that his careful planning was not a waste of energy and time.
