July and a half, as if in a flash.

Puji Temple, which was originally half-hidden in the mountains, suddenly became lively because of the arrival of the Obon Festival.

And close to the mountain gate outside the Puji Temple, there is a small gathering at the entrance of Baoshu Village, which is as noisy as the world. On the way from Baoshu Village to Puji Temple, it was even more crowded, like an ant colony moving in a queue to a higher place.

Since the edict of the Emperor Taizu of the Chen Dynasty in the early years of the edict of the Taoist Buddhist Temple in the world to hold a festival on July 15, after sacrificing the souls of the martyrs who had established the Chen Dynasty in order to expel Hu Man, the incense offering that was originally only made by monks behind closed doors has gradually become a popular folk custom in the Chen Dynasty.

At this time, the puja of Puji Temple always ranks first in Fengjin, especially this year.

The pomp and circumstance of the Buddhist Obon Festival is much more out of the Taoist Midyear Festival, not to mention that the great monks in the Puji Temple have recently shown miraculous means to resolve the anger that entangled the family surnamed Zhou who came from afar, so that they can return to their hometown smoothly and no longer stay in Fengjin and harm this place.

Zhou Manyun, dressed as a boy, was crowded in the crowd of people who were burning incense and paper, climbing the long ladder leading to Puji Temple. Around her, just like that, from time to time there were piles of Fengjin people, and the women in the market talked about the legendary "Ah! Yo! Voice.

When he got up early in the morning, Zhou Manyun still remembered that the Taoist priest had said that he would bring his priest door in the middle of July, and his little heart was pounding, worrying about the mysterious and unknown sacrifice in his imagination.

As a result, the lie just asked her to change her clothes and go to Puji Temple with him.

And when she heard that she was going to the temple, there were several more travelers at once, just now. The incense group led by the second aunt Gao was still slowly swaying at the bottom of the thirty or forty steps behind. Gao's hat is worn tightly. With a healthy woman like Zhu's mother around, there is a lot less excitement around.

"Master! We just have to follow the temple rituals? The ancestors won't blame? ”。 Zhou Manyun's calves trembled, and she stepped up a step and asked the Void Daoist who was standing on the steps waiting for her.

"They already worship Buddha, and if you say hello at such a lively festival, they will be happier."

"Master is not a Taoist?" , Zhou Manyun asked knowingly.

The man in front of him was dressed in a moon-white kudzu cloth and a wooden hairpin, and his dress was almost the same as that of many young men he had seen along the way. It's just that his skin is a little more prominent, and he has attracted the blue eyes of many big girls and little daughters-in-law. If it weren't for a small Manyun helping to cool down the heat, maybe a matchmaker would have pounced on him.

"The world is looking forward to living in peace, this year, there will be parades around the eunuch monk road, the first two types of troublesome things, monks to shave inconvenience."

The identity of the Taoist priest is a false trust, and this point has already been revealed in front of Du Shi and others, and he wants to abduct someone's daughter as an apprentice. He is still very sincere. It's just that the little girl who doesn't know is weird, and she should have guessed something.

Thinking of the situation when he first met Man Yun, he lowered his head and smiled, and said, "My surname is She." She Ne, She Minxing. ”。

She Tongyu, the same snake sound. It is a semantic transliteration of Nanzhao Wuman, which has been used for more than 100 years. And his name and character were given by the enlightened Han master, according to the rules of the Han family.

"What? Your surname is She? ”。 Zhou Manyun's eyes widened, a little incredulous. The well-known "Xu Ne" in the previous life was actually fake.

"Can't you?"

"Yes...... Master can have whatever surname he wants......", Man Yun snorted dissatisfiedly, thinking about his own entanglements in his previous life.

In her previous life, after losing her surname Zhou, she also had the opportunity to change her surname and change her identity, but she resolutely refused. Although she is a daughter, Zhou Manyun doesn't want to go underground with the charge of forgetting her sect, but she never thought that this master was pretending to come and go, as if it didn't matter.

At dusk, on the Shi Gu platform at the entrance of Puji Temple, the spirit pretense swings with the wind, and the melons, fruits, millet and hemp offered by each family are crowded, and the monks who have finished reading the scriptures begin to scatter rice noodles and set off flames......

The believers from all over the world who came up to the mountain to participate in the ritual came down the mountain one after another, greeted Gao and others, and left the temple alone with Manyun temporarily.

"Your second aunt looks like I'm afraid I'll kidnap you and eat you." , Feeling dark and taking Man Yun to climb towards the higher cliff, looking at the little girl with a calm expression with a false smile, he was proud.

I'm afraid, if it were an ordinary child, I should have been scared to cry a long time ago! Man Yun rolled his eyes angrily.

In the middle of the night of July, I walked all the way up the mountain with the shirt of the false word, the forest was dark, the path was rugged, and after I was far away from the people, the sound of rustling on both sides of the road became louder and louder.

Walking to the mountainside, the ground that only allowed one person appeared to be like a ribbon of silver light that kept moving forward with them. The silver color of the activity was all snakes and insects, large and small, who had swallowed the medicinal powder scattered along the road by False Words.

"It's beautiful! Isn't it? Finally climbing to the top of the hill, False Talk led Man Yun to a large rock like a millstone, helped her to stand, and motioned for her to look at the wriggling points of light on the ground.

"It's beautiful!" , Zhou Manyun tensed his small body, smiled in response, and hid the screams that were about to exit. In her previous and present lives combined, she had never seen so many poisons gathered in one place.

Jumping off the boulder's false words, he had changed his hand to a handful of white powder, and he was immersed in drawing a picture on the ground, and as the powder fell to the ground, the snakes and insects that followed him honestly posed as if they were listening to orders.

"It's a star map!" , Manyun, who tried to let himself look at the picture instead of looking at the worm, gradually forgot the meaning of fear, looked at the pattern that was gradually forming in front of him, and exclaimed.

Chart! Posed with a poison body, it is exactly the same as the star map in the sky.

Man Yun, who was sitting on the stone, half-leaned back, looking up at the eternal firmament, the starlight in the sky and the silver on the ground, reflecting each other, making her fascinated for a while, and forgetting both things and me.

"Which star is what?" , asked with a false smile pointing to the unfilled point of the star map on the ground. At a young age, Man Yun seems to have learned a lot, allowing him to teach and save some effort, which he is very satisfied with.

"Fire!" , Man Yun lowered his head and pondered, and replied softly: "July Flowing Fire!" In May, Antares is due south of Zhongtian, and in July, the Great Mars is gradually moving westward, and the weather is getting cooler. ”

"Not bad!" , Falsely and affectionately reached out and touched the top of Manyun's hair to show affirmation.

Zhou Manyun's face turned red all of a sudden, and he secretly sighed in his heart. If it weren't for the fact that she was only a five-year-old doll now, she would have wanted to scream "Don't look at it, don't move it"!

Just finished painting with poisonous powder, the Void Taoist priest sitting next to Man Yun spread his hair, and the straight jacket on his body was also half open, and the strong chest and abdominal muscles were faint or visible, the night breeze was blowing, and the stars were shining, which was quite a bit of male and confusing. The body of a five-year-old does not understand, but the soul of a twenty-year-old understands it very much, and it is also ashamed.

Obviously, the false words of the teacher did not see the weakness of the apprentice's heart, but pulled the placket of his clothes a little wider.

A little vermilion demon broke out of his left chest, leaving no scars, and Man Yun, who wanted to advise his master to dress carefully at night, widened his eyes widened, staring straight at him, motionless.

A small red transparent scorpion, supporting a scorpion tail like a thick accumulation of red ink, lightly clicked, as if signaling to Man Yun.

"Tong! Natal Gu for the teacher! False words took Man Yun's little hand and rolled up her sleeve.

The little red scorpion proudly crawled onto Manyun's left arm, and when it reached the cinnabar mole on the inside of her elbow, it stopped, as if pleased with the color that matched it.

"Tong wants to be close to you, so that he will not be mistaken in the future."

Man Yun nodded dizzily, and then, her arm went numb suddenly, and when she raised her eyes again, Tong, who had put away her tail thorns, turned around again and crawled back to the body of the void.

"The poison in this mountain is weakly poisonous, and the spiritual sense is poor. Tong, go and help! Pointing to the star map on the ground, Tong turned around and lazily crawled towards the "Great Fire" star position vacated just now.

"If you were just a medicine man feeding money, that's fine. But if you want to inherit the poison technique, I suggest that you still take the silver as your own life Gu, just like me and Tong. Falsely explained, to Man Yun, who was looking at him with big eyes, and to the silver that quietly climbed from Man Yun's wrist to her shoulder.

"So I need to incorporate the silver into my body?" , Zhou Manyun thought of Tong who appeared strangely from the body of the void just now.

"Yes. People and Gu are compatible, live and die together, this is the rule of this door, if you are afraid, you can ......"

"Okay!" , Zhou Manyun turned her head to look at the silver, and immediately responded, the wet eyes of the little snake on her shoulder, she couldn't bear to regret it.

According to the false instructions, Man Yun walked towards the miniature star map on the grass with his feet in addition to his shoes and socks and coat, and the little snake silver was loosely on her neck.

Living and dying together? In his previous life, he also hoped that he could really have a love in the world, and that there was someone who could experience life and death with him without regrets. But after all, it is extravagant, and it cannot be sought. Men can't be trusted, but silver should be reliable, right? The small body was lying flat in the star chart composed of snakes and insects, Man Yun smiled slightly, slowly closed his eyes, and adjusted his breathing......

A little vermilion in the west of the star map moved, and the little red scorpion quickly bounced up, and all the silver on the ground also moved, and a map that was originally attached to the ground turned into a net that tightly locked Man Yun in the movement.

In the center of the net is a delicate little girl like a flower. Tong stopped on Man Yun's forehead, the tail thorn Xiangxia shook in vain, and a centipede next to it opened its palate teeth in confusion, clamped Man Yun's earlobe, and just as it was about to lower its mouth, a bundle of sticky spider silk wrapped around its body......

More and more snakes and insects pounced on each other with the instinct of being driven by Tong.

In the constantly shaking silver dots, the slender little body of the silver moved lightly, and occasional dangers were also solved by the sweeping Tong.

After waiting for the silver to be under care, after eating all the poisons, Tong successfully retired.

The silver coil was in the flesh of the manyun, like a full moon hanging lonely in the air. She leaned down and rubbed the soft skin under her, quietly coiled her body, and gradually sank...... (To be continued......)
