Chapter Twenty-Eight: Ragged Clothes and Ground
Everyone is welcome to visit us, please remember the address of this site:,, so that you can read the latest chapters of "Maoshan Academy" at any time...
The fat man is thick-skinned, and he has already forgotten all about the reprimand he has just been reprimanded by the principal, and as soon as he sat down, he asked me:
"I understand the comb, the mantra and the amulet that the headmaster recited, but what does he mean by burning three holes in our clothes?"
"How do I know?"
As I spoke, I looked at Xiaobai again and asked Xiaobai with my eyes.
I have long seen that Xiaobai is not simple, and he knows far more than us.
But Xiaobai also shook his head blankly, meaning, he didn't know either.
Then you have to ask the principal.
But we all saw the headmaster's anger just now, not to mention that the headmaster was resting, so we didn't dare to hit the muzzle of the gun anymore.
But just then, the headmaster came to his senses and said to us:
"Our Maoshan Taoist priests, there are ragged clothes and the saying of the ground, the ragged clothes, that is, do not wear neat clothes, do not leave overnight money, the person who stops the ground, to step on the ground as the number, so that the god possesses the body, with the power of God, to seek good fortune and avoid evil, kill demons, and subdue ghosts and catch monsters."
It dawned on me that it was no wonder that those Maoshan Taoist priests would pause on one foot and chant incantations before casting spells to catch ghosts, which turned out to be inviting God.
As soon as the headmaster's words fell, the fat man stood up "rubbing", followed the example of the Taoist priest of Maoshan, raised his right foot, stepped lightly on the ground, and read in his mouth:
"Master Zu is possessed!"
But after doing it for a long time, there was no response.
"Bao Renzhi, what are you doing?"
"I, I want to try and see if it works."
The principal smiled and explained:
"Nothing happens overnight, you are just enlightened, how can you have a spell to please move the gods?"
"How long will it take?"
"It depends on your personal creation, and of course, you have to study and practice Maoshan Technique diligently."
The fat man sat back in his seat disappointed.
I teased:
"Fatty, with your qualifications, I don't feel that in ten years, you will definitely be able to invite Master Zu."
The fat man didn't hear my voiceover, and he looked proud:
"That's it, my qualifications, I dare to say, except for Xiaobai, I don't think I can compare with him, but compared with you, I still have a great advantage, do you know what to rely on for this thing? That's by blood, that's genetic, you know, what did my ancestors do? That's an authentic heir who ignores the dog, if the qualifications are poor, will it be passed on to my ancestors? ”
A few of us laughed and laughed, letting the fat man brag.
However, what I am curious about is that if according to the usual situation, Yin Mo and Wang Zhihe, the two rich second generations, have long been tired of the boasting of fat people, and they began to mock, but the two of them are surprisingly quiet today and don't say a word.
Maybe I was shocked by today's scene.
Anyway, they're kids who just graduated from high school.
Then the headmaster commanded:
"Then take out that yellow paper talisman of yours, I think you've all made a decision. Here, I would like to emphasize one more sentence, lonely, young, poor, must receive a word, once chosen, there is absolutely no possibility of change, no matter what your fate is in the future, you can only accept your fate, understand? ”
"Understood."
"Okay, now write your birth date on the back."
We were stunned.
I've only heard of the eight characters of birth, but how do you know what the eight characters of birth are.
But this is when I saw that Xiaobai had already taken out his pen and neatly wrote eight big characters on his yellow paper note.
The fat man hooked his head, wanting to see what Xiaobai wrote, but was blocked by Xiaobai's hand, and quickly put it away after writing.
The fat man said disdainfully:
"Stingy, take a look at what's wrong, I don't want it."
Xiaobai said calmly:
"It has nothing to do with being stingy, my birthday, you better not look at it."
"So mysterious? Then do you know what my birth date is? ”
"As long as you tell me your birthday, I can figure it out."
"Okay, you can help me calculate, my birthday is ......"
But before the fat man could say anything, he was interrupted by the principal:
"The so-called eight characters of birth, simply put, is the year of birth, month, day, and time of the heavenly stem and earthly branches, a total of eight characters, that is, the eight characters of birth.
"Gan" refers to the heavenly stems, and there are ten in total, namely A, B, C, D, E, G, G, XIN, NON, and DEC.
"Branch" refers to the "earthly branch", including the 12 Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu, and Hai.
The heavenly stem and the earthly branch each take a word and match it in order, that is, from Jiazi and Yichou...... All the way to Guihai, exactly 60 groups in a cycle. Therefore, it is known as "sixty sixtieth nails".
The lunar calendar, also known as the Ganzhi calendar, which has been used in ancient China, is to record the year, month, day and time with the "sixty flowers", so as to record a person's birth time. Year, month, day, hour, each with two words of dry branches, together is eight words, commonly known as "birth eight characters".
So you can deduce your birth date based on this. ”
After we listened, we were still staring at each other.
Principal, consider those of us who grew up in the 21st century.
We really don't understand what you're talking about!
But I won't be like a fat man, asking Xiaobai to calculate the birth date.
I don't understand it, but I also know the importance of the eight characters of birth to a person.
I've watched too many movies in which I stole other people's birthdays and cast spells to harm people, so in ancient times, the birthdays would never be leaked to others unless relatives knew about the accident.
Although Xiaobai is not that kind of person, he is indispensable to guard against others, and I still understand this truth.
I wanted to stop the fat man, but at this time, the aunt next door teacher came to the front of the stage, came to the principal, and said something to the principal, and saw the principal nodding constantly, and finally the aunt next door stepped aside, and the principal spoke again:
"Teacher Gao said that the current underworld has also begun to use the year of the Common Era, and it will work without the eight characters of the birthday, since this is the case, you should write down your date of birth, remember, you must not write it wrong."
We breathed a sigh of relief when we heard it, and we didn't think that the underworld is not an old-fashioned place, and we know how to follow the trend.
A few of us wrote our birthdays on the back of yellow paper and waited for the principal's next instructions.
The headmaster got up from his chair, came to the altar, grabbed a handful of coins, and threw them into the air.
The same lit three incense sticks, inserted in the incense burner, and sat down in front of the bronze statue of the grandfather, sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, seemingly abandoning distracting thoughts, lifting the dantian, hooking the ring finger on the little finger of both hands, pressing the middle finger on the thumb, bending the middle finger with the middle finger, and the two index fingers like a palm-like counterpart, slowly lifting the palm, touching the eyes with the hand.
Then the headmaster recited a mantra in his mouth:
"One please, two please, two please,
Burning incense in three dynasties, worshipping the altar of the head,
The Emperor of Heaven and the Emperor of the Earth, the Moon and the Stars,
Yin and Yang psychic, smell my incense letter,
Come and fly to the altar,
The disciple should be invited
Hopeful descent is coming,
Haste as the law......"
As soon as we finished speaking, we heard the clumsy and heavy wooden door "creaking" open.
You immediately turned our heads to look at the door of the conference room, but the door was closed, and it was not the sound of the door at all.
Which door was opened?
Immediately afterward, we saw a thick layer of fog gradually rising from the floor of the conference room.
This mist is different from the fog we usually see, it is silver-gray, faintly revealing a fairy aura, but it is not as sacred as the fairy aura, it looks lifeless, cold and swishing, and people can't help but shiver.
In the middle of this mist, the silver light opened up, piercing our eyes.
The fog became thicker and thicker, and the silver light became brighter and brighter, and gradually, in the middle of the mist, two officials appeared.
These two people are dressed in red official robes, with red and yellow eyebrows, their eyes are red and silky, their angry hair is like an iron brush, and they are as hideous as a cunning.
But it was this official robe that made them suddenly have a kind of majesty, and they were not angry and arrogant.
We are talking about it below, speculating about the identities of these two people.
"Immortals?"
"Maoshan Five Ghosts?"
Finally, the small white dot breaks:
"This is the Yin Official."
"What ......"
We shouted in unison.
But then he realized his recklessness, and hurriedly retracted his voice, and buried his head in his body in a panic, motionless, and did not dare to gasp.
