Chapter 177: The Taoist Priest on the Mountain
Fang's mother and Zhang Qiaoyin both looked at Zhang Youfu who suddenly exploded and then fell in shock, seeing his pale face and trembling lips, they couldn't help but be a little scared, and turned their heads to look at Fang Shi, there was nothing strange about it.
Fang Shi smiled: "Why are you here, it's like you've seen a ghost." ”
"No, nothing!" Zhang Youfu didn't dare to say that he just saw a weird, wrinkled old face on the top of Lin Shu's head, smiling at himself, maybe, it's really hell, maybe there really is that damn tree god!
Zhang Youfu stood up in shock, slapped his pants tremblingly, and secretly looked at Fang Shi, Fang Shi smiled brightly, and seemed to be a little sadistic, Zhang Youfu shook his head vigorously.
"Youfu, you haven't answered me yet."
"What? What answer? ”
"Do you believe in tree gods?"
"Well, I believe it."
"Very good, that's all, you take Qiaoyin to the police station in a while, send breakfast to your aunt, and tell the police by the way, it's the tree god who is doing it, and the aunt is just very unlucky to accidentally offend the tree god, as long as you ask someone to do a magic thing, everything will be fine, as for the doctor, I don't think it's necessary, this is a family dispute, not a criminal case."
"Brother?!"
"Okay, I'll go."
"What's the hurry, eat first, Mom, prepare a lunch box and decorate something for my aunt."
"Where's my dad?" Zhang Youfu asked.
Zhang Qiaoyin snorted, Fang Shi smiled, this guy should be hungry, is it really a big disaster to fly separately?
I don't know how Zhang Youfu's brothers and sisters told the police station, anyway, it's noon. Aunt Big Mouth happily returned with her children.
I don't know if Zhang Lao picked up at home again. It's late afternoon anyway. Aunt Big Mouth took the rich sacrifices, as well as her own family, to the big locust tree, pious prayer to the tree god to bless the sin, Fang Shi also stayed aside to watch, he also hoped that the man would come out to make trouble, so that he could be captured in one fell swoop, who knew that no one had made a move. How could they not take advantage of such an opportunity, perhaps, because the time was too tight to react.
Soon, the time for the reunion dinner arrived, everyone went back to their homes, and the sound of firecrackers in the village resounded in the night sky, and it was another lively New Year!
Fang Shi stood in the courtyard, stepping on the red paper all over the ground, smelling the good smell of gunpowder in the air, and listening to the hustle and bustle representing reunion and happiness with his face up. Thinking about my younger brother who is alone in the mountain city, and friends who are far away in the north and south. There are also the cute little faces of Niu Niu and Yun'er.
Fang Shi took out his mobile phone and sent a photo taken during the firecracker setting off to everyone, including two children, and then offered his most sincere wishes.
The next day, Fang Shi looked at the text messages on his mobile phone on the breakfast table, and he was surprised to find that his mobile phone was already filled with blessing text messages, Yun'er and Niuniu's were also indispensable, as well as Grandma Li's family, and Xie Yan and Xia Yuyao, it was really surprising, it seemed that he had forgotten these two beauties yesterday.
After eating, Fang Shi followed his mother to pay New Year's greetings to the elders, and then his mother went home, Fang Shi went to the acquaintance's house by himself, and sent a lot of red envelopes, fortunately, Fang Shi distributed only ten yuan in the red envelopes, which meant a little.
When I arrived at the village chief Fang Hongxi's house, there was a middle-aged Taoist priest in the village chief's house, it seemed that Fang Hongxi's movements were not slow, and he really invited someone to prepare for the practice.
"Uncle Hong Xi, happy new year, I wish you good health, a prosperous career, and a prosperous new year!"
Fang Shi handed a cigarette to Fang Hongxi, Fang Hongxi is in the prime of life, some ambitions, and this person is not a farmer who is dedicated to digging in the soil, the overall lease of the village is what he did, and the big vegetable basket project is also made by him, and the future vegetable base is naturally from his handwriting.
Speaking of which, this is also a capable person, and Fang Shi still admires this shrewd farmer very much.
"Yo, our college student is back, and I'll take your words."
After taking Fang Shi's cigarette light, Fang Hongxi's wife grabbed candy melon seeds to entertain Fang Shi, Fang Shi glanced at the Taoist priest who was sitting on the side and looked at him with a smile, and while throwing a Qi Hope Technique, he asked with a smile: "This Taoist chief is invited to help Aunt Dazui do things?" ”
"Yes, big mouth, the matter of the daughter-in-law of the Zhang family is very strange, and it was his family who begged to come to the door, so I went to the mountain Songfeng Temple and asked the Azure Daoist to help."
Fang Hongxi's mouth had some clear meaning, he was afraid that others would say that he was superstitious, some things could be done but not said, and some things could not be said or done, but it didn't hurt to let others do it.
"It turned out to be the Azure Dao Chief, fortunately!"
Fang Shi arched his hand, and the Azure Dao Chief was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly raised his palms as a salute: "Poor Dao Tianqing, it's polite." ”
The luck of the Azure Dao is '0,0,7,White'
This shows that he is not mistaken, this Taoist priest is basically a mixed meal, or a hard-working Taoist who has more than enough heart but not enough strength.
"The Taoist is a high-ranking person, I don't know what to think of these recent things in our village?"
Fang Hongxi's eyes shrank, Fang Shi was a little anti-customer, and his style did not look like a stunned college student, but more like an old Jianghu, Tianqing Dao Leader also put away his attitude of coping, and looked at Fang Shi with a straight face.
"This gentleman"
"I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Fang Shi, I am the nephew of the head of Fang Village, I went to school for a few days, and now I work in Pengcheng to live, but I have been very interested in practicing qi and seeking the Tao since I was a child, and subduing demons and demons, so I am curious to ask, hehe"
"Curious," Fang Hongxi breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "Although I am an atheist, there are a lot of unsolved things on this shijie, you say yes!" And the villagers' minds can't be reversed all at once, sometimes they have to follow the trend, follow the trend, hehe"
"Uncle Hong Xi is right, I believe that there are gods in the head three feet, people need to have some awe, if the sky is not afraid of the earth, it is difficult to say what people will do, of course, I am not superstitious, I just think that people like the Azure Dao Chief, they should be studying some things that we don't know and don't understand, the Azure Dao Chief. You say yes? ”
"That's right. That's right! What we cultivators seek is the Tao. As for the unknown things that definitely exist, we are committed to studying these unknown things, let's call them gods and ghosts, but it is just a name, the gods are the Tao, the gods are the supreme people, and they are still people. ”
Fang Shi looked at the Azure Dao Elder and waited for him to finish with a smile. Only then did he ask unhurriedly, "Daoist Tianqing, what do you think of what is happening in our village these days?" ”
"There may indeed be a tree god who is haunting, or it may be something else that is unclean, but no matter what it is, after the method is exorcized, it will definitely be able to return a peace to Shixi Village, and this point of poverty is still certain."
"What is the god of trees?"
"Some kind of unknown existence, everything has a spirit, not to mention the tree that has grown for hundreds of years, what does it carry. We can't guess for the time being. ”
Fang Shi smiled: "Then I don't know when the Dao Master plans to do it, but I need someone to help?" ”
"Does Mr. Fang want to help?"
"yes. It's just a good time to visit and fulfill the desire that has been saved since childhood, but isn't it appropriate? ”
"There's nothing inappropriate, in that case, Mr. Fang will stay and help, start preparing this afternoon, and open the altar tomorrow morning."
Tianqing Daoist glanced at Fang Hongxi, Fang Hongxi nodded secretly, it was no problem to help, he just wanted to send Fang Shi away as soon as possible, and then he still had a lot to discuss with Tianqing.
Fang Shi said goodbye very understandingly, saying that he would come to help after lunch, Fang Hongxi sent Fang Shi out of the door with a smile, and thought about Fang Shi's purpose, Zuihou didn't know the essentials, so he had to stop thinking about it for the time being, first put this sudden matter to rest, how could the development of this matter be a little uncontrollable, Fang Hongxi was indeed a little uneasy in his heart
Zhang Qiaoyin heard that Fang Shi was going to help the Taoist priest on the mountain, and he also volunteered to go, but was blocked by Fang Shi on the grounds that the woman was unlucky.
According to Zhang Qiaoyin, although Aunt Big Mouth is a little depressed, but the problem is not big, she is holding this breath to find the bad luck of those who spread rumors, seeing her full of energy, Zhang Qiaoyin is also relieved.
In the afternoon, Fang Shi really went to the courtyard of the village committee to help, the Taoist priest was preparing all kinds of materials, there were two people sent by Fang Shi and Fang Hongxi to help, the speed of the three of them was very fast, buying things to buy things, making preparations and preparations, and later Zhang Lao's father and son also came to assist, and when it was dark, even the three animal steamed buns and sacrificial offerings for the sacrifice were ready.
After getting the things and putting everything into the small warehouse of the village committee, the Tianqing Daoist sent the helpers back, and was about to go to the village chief's house for dinner, but found that Fang Shi was still standing by the door and looking at him with a smile.
"Mr. Fang, why don't you leave?"
"Daoist Celestial, what do you think will happen if these sacrifices are suddenly destroyed? And then how are you going to explain it? ”
"This? Will it? Daoist Azure asked with a frown.
"Daoist Tianqing, do you really think that Aunt Big Mouth's matter is a ghost or god?"
"This"
"What if it's man-made? I think it's not enough to just destroy the sacrifices, the best way is for you, the initiator, to go crazy too. ”
"What do you mean?"
Looking at the Azure Dao Chief's iron face, as if he had seen a ghost, Fang Shi smiled happily: "Azure Dao Chief, you don't think that I did this, do you?" ”
"When, of course not, just, yes, who?"
"How do I know, shouldn't you know better?"
"I, what do I know? You"
Fang Shi looked at the Azure Dao Chief with a smile, seeing that his forehead was sweating, and finally, Fang Shi spoke: "Azure Dao Chief, do ghosts and gods really exist?" Are you sure there is a tree god? ”
"Ang yes, no, no."
"So, does the god of the tree exist? Actually, I don't know if the god of trees exists, but I do know that the character of the god of trees must be very greedy, very greedy, a greedy god? Hehe, I'd love to ask the chief, is there still a god on the head of the god? Can he be so greedy that he is not afraid of karma? ”
The Azure Daoist swallowed his saliva, and a gust of wind blew, and the Azure Daoist only felt chills all over his body, and then he realized that he was sweating all over his body at some point. (To be continued......)
