Chapter 4 Masters
On the path down the mountain, two figures, one large and one small, were walking down the mountain, but what made people feel funny was that these two people were wearing clean robes, but they were not wearing shoes, and they were stepping barefoot on the muddy path.
The two of them also wore a Dao crown on their heads, covering up the wounds on their heads, if they didn't look at their feet, the old man really had a bit of fairy wind bones.
"Master, what are we doing here?"
Ye Tian knew that there were two pairs of brand-new cloth shoes in the bag on the back of the old Taoist, and he also knew the master's intention of not allowing him to wear shoes, but he was still very puzzled by the behavior of the old Taoist, he was dressed so brightly, he wouldn't be going down the mountain to cheat, right?
"Yesterday when I went down the mountain, I saw a white flag hanging in front of the door, I think someone died in the family, I will take you to do a ritual ......"
The old Taoist spoke, but the soles of his feet sped up a little, and it was a little closer to the main peak of Maoshan Mountain.
"Do...... What to do? Ye Tian was scorched and tender by the words of the old Tao, this seems to be the life of a monk, right? The Taoist priest went to do this, isn't it a bit of a dog meddling with a mouse?
As if he saw Ye Tian's thoughts, Lao Dao snorted in his mouth and said, "What's wrong?" I teach you to memorize the "Lingbao Immeasurable Human Superior Wonderful Sutra", referred to as "The Sutra of Saving People", which can save people in three ways, five hardships and eight difficulties, and transcend the three realms......"
Lao Tao said that it is reasonable, monks and Taoists can do things, especially in this Maoshan area, the popularity of Taoism is far better than Buddhism, there are white things at home, and more Taoist priests are invited.
It's just that he has just experienced that sensitive era, and the reform and opening up has not been long ago, and the average person has no spare money at home, so he doesn't pay so much attention to it, Ye Tian is young, so he naturally doesn't know this.
"Master, where does that family live?" Ye Tian asked, the child wants to save face, he doesn't want to be seen by his classmates in this dress, then he won't be laughed to death?
The old Taoist priest didn't know Ye Tian's careful thoughts, and said: "In Maolu Town, go faster, otherwise you won't be able to catch up at noon......
"Hey!"
After knowing where to go, Ye Tian happily agreed, and sped up a few steps, his school was not in Maolu Town, and he didn't know anyone, so naturally he didn't have to worry about losing face.
After coming to the bottom of the mountain, Lao Dao and Ye Tian found a stream to wash their feet, changed their shoes, and walked to Maolu Town, although it was only more than 20 miles away, the two of them arrived in the town at noon.
"Hey, it's a bazaar today......" After coming to the town, Ye Tian suddenly shouted excitedly.
In their place, every fifteenth day of the new year, there is a market in the town, people from ten miles and eight towns will come here to set up stalls to sell things, the most lively, relatively spacious town, at the moment is already crowded with people.
Located in the territory of Maoshan Mountain, Ye Tian and Lao Dao's dress does not look abrupt, because in the surrounding crowd, there is no shortage of Taoist priests.
"Master, look, there's a monkey ......"
"Hey, Master, look, popcorn ......"
Squeezed into the crowd, Ye Tian was already dizzying, and in Ye Tian's heart at this time, perhaps this was the most lively place in the world.
"Ahem, Master, isn't that our companion? It's still iron-clad, master, who is more powerful than you and that old man? Ye Tian's eyes were sharp, and when he saw a fortune-telling stall, he immediately stopped Lao Dao.
"Go, what's the comparison? Your master has been in and out of the mansion before and after, if it is mixed like this, how can he be worthy of the face of the ancestor? β
Lao Dao's face turned green when he was asked by Ye Tian's words, how could the descendant of the dignified lineage of Mai go to the roadside to set up a stall, although this divination and hexagram is the most common in the rivers and lakes, it is also divided into three, six, nine and so on.
Like this kind of roadside stall to look at the word measurement, a hexagram is the lowest in the industry, and most of them have no real talent, so the old way disdains it.
"Stinky boy, I'm tired of the old way......"
It took a lot of effort to pull Ye Tian out of the crowd, Lao Dao was also tired and out of breath, and pointed to the front angrily and said, "Hurry up, otherwise you won't have to eat lunch......"
Squeezed from the east end of the town to the west end, there were a lot fewer people rushing to the market, and following the old road's fingers, Ye Tian saw a family with a two-story small building.
In this era when we are in the transition from a planned economy to a market economy and are still using food stamps, it is a great thing to be able to build such a small building, at least it is a 10,000-dollar household.
In normal times, such a family is definitely enviable, but at this moment, the people passing by by the side look at this family with a lot of pity, and some unkind people have a little schadenfreude on their faces.
β¦β¦
In the small courtyard of the two-storey building, there is a mourning hall, and a woman in her twenties is holding a little boy who is already asleep, with a sad face.
"Uncle him, why don't you send Xiaojun to the county hospital to see, it's not a way to cry when you wake up......"
Looking at the little white-faced child in her arms, the woman was distressed, this husband is gone, if the child has three long and two short, how will she live in the future?
This is the fifth day, a few days ago there were many people to mourn, but I didn't have time to think about it, now that my husband has been out of the funeral, all the people who should have come have come, the yard has quieted down, and the cry of the little baby is more and more heartbreaking.
A man in his thirties was smoking a cigarette with his head bored, and after hearing the woman's words, he snuffed out the cigarette butt on the ground, stood up and said, "Okay, let your sister-in-law take care of it here, go back and eat something, and let's go to the county hospital......"
Boss Miao was a little depressed, since the year before last when he started transportation, this day is getting better and better day by day, not only has he become a well-known 10,000 yuan household, but more importantly, the second brother and daughter-in-law gave birth to a big fat boy last year.
For the Miao family, this is a great big thing, you know, the Miao family has two brothers, Miao Lao Lian gave birth to four children, all of them are daughters, as soon as the second son was born, he was suddenly treasured by the whole family.
But who would have expected that the sky would be cloudy and sunny, and people would have good fortune and misfortune, just when this little day was getting better and better, the second child went out of the car once, but he suffered a car accident, and even the corpse capital could not be saved.
What's even worse is that since the second child had a car accident, the little nephew has also begun to get sick, crying all day long, refusing to eat, and going to the hospital in the town but not seeing the clues.
A series of changes in the family have made Boss Miao, a seven-foot man, have a few more strands of gray hair on his head, and people in their thirties actually look a little rickety in their backs.
"Alas, Xiaojun woke up again, his uncle, what should I do?"
Perhaps it was the words of the two that woke up the child in the woman's arms, and the little guy opened his eyes and began to cry, and the distressed woman shed tears again and again.
"No, let's go now, go to the hospital!"
Boss Miao threw the cigarette he had just lit to the ground, stretched out his hand and hugged the child, and when he just walked to the gate of the yard, he found two people standing in front of the door.
"This real person, may I ask...... Is there anything wrong with you? β
As the first batch of people to get rich in reform and opening up, although Boss Miao was anxious, he did not lose his manners, and at the moment he was comforting his crying nephew, he looked at the old Taoist, and as for Ye Tian next to the old Taoist, he was automatically filtered out by Boss Miao.
"Immeasurable, this layman is polite......"
Lao Dao glanced at Boss Miao, took out his right hand, flexed his index finger (including the righteousness of one gasification and three purifications), raised it to his chest, and said: "My disciples and I passed by here and found that your house is extremely evil, and this place is located in a Taoist holy land, I don't know why this layman doesn't find someone to resolve it?" β
The old Taoist's words made Ye Tian secretly roll his eyes, "Find someone to resolve it?" So why are you running as fast as a bunny daddy? Isn't it just that you're afraid of being preempted? β
However, hearing Lao Dao mention Yin Sha, Ye Tian raised his head with some curiosity, looking like in the courtyard, he had also learned from Lao Dao about the knowledge of earth qi and public opinion, but he had never seen any dragon qi yin or anything like that.
"Huh? This...... What's going on? β
Just when Ye Tian was using the knowledge taught by Lao Dao to look at the courtyard, the turtle shell that appeared in his mind in the morning suddenly appeared again, and Ye Tian was so startled that he almost cried out.
It's just that unlike in the morning, after the turtle shell turned around in Ye Tian's mind, the lines on his back shone brightly, and suddenly turned into air currents, overflowing into Ye Tian's eyes.
"This ...... Is this what the master calls yin? β
When that air flow filled Ye Tian's eyes, the scene in front of him seemed to be a little different from just now, on the right side of the mourning hall, there was some faint gray mist.
Although the sun was shining at the moment, this position was blocked by the canvas of the mourning hall, and the faint mist was still condensed, and it was a little clear from the sunlight next to it.
"Could this be the ancients' interpretation of yin and yang?"
Looking at the strange scene in front of him, Ye Tian had this idea in his heart, as a young pioneer who grew up under the red flag, he would never believe in any ghosts and gods.
And this fog is only a little cold, and it is not a ghost in the strange tale of chatting about the Zhai, but it is a bit similar to the explanation of the ancient word "δΎ", that is, the fog that is "rotating and reuniting", cold, dark, and gathering.
"Boy, what's wrong?"
Just as Ye Tian was searching for a hundred thousand reasons in his mind to explain the vision in front of him, he suddenly felt that his arm was being pulled, and after coming back to his senses, he found that he was already standing in the courtyard.
"It's okay, Master, I'm observing what you said...... "Interrupted by the old Taoist, the scene in Ye Tian's eyes returned to the original state, but the faint mist was no longer visible.
"The little real person also saw it? Is there a problem with my house? β
After hearing Ye Tian's words, Boss Miao looked at this little Taoist priest with some suspicion, to say that the old Taoist does have the taste of a master, but what does this little hairy child know?
