Volume 1: I Am the Heavenly Master Chapter 59 Nan Wuguan
I didn't ask any useful news all the way, but I learned that there was a Taoist temple in Nanxi Village, and the scale was not small. But everybody unanimously denied that it was the Namor we were looking for.
Before I knew it, it was noon, and we still didn't have any eyebrows. Just head towards the Taoist temple that a few people said, and even if it's not, it's okay to go to the neighborhood for lunch.
When I arrived at the destination, there was indeed a Taoist temple building, not big, it looked good, and the plaque said Nanwuguan, which was indeed not what I was looking for.
There is a small venue in front of the Taoist temple, and there are some shops selling ingots and incense candles around, as well as small restaurants. I chose one at random, and Zhuang Yan and I walked in.
After ordering, I asked the boss about Namoguan, and the boss scratched his head and said: "Within a radius of five miles, just this Taoist temple, I have never heard of Namoguan what you are talking about." More than 30 kilometers to the south, there seems to be a Taoist temple. I can't remember the name, but it's definitely not Namo, such a mouthful name, I must remember it at first glance, absolutely not. โ
Zhuang Yan and I looked at each other and smiled, I think thirty kilometers is definitely not, so far to come to Xinxing Library to work, impossible.
Zhuang Yan picked up the phone and contacted her colleagues to ask about the Taoist temple.
She looked a little tired from driving, put her phone on the table, and pressed the speakerphone.
"Ayan! When will the manuscript of the interview be given to me. As soon as the phone was connected, the voice of the editor-in-chief was heard.
"Editor-in-chief, just spare me, I'll do it as soon as possible! Now there's something I want to trouble you, just tell me if you know, and if you don't know, help me ask the other colleagues in the office. โ
"What's the matter? They've all gone to dinner, and I don't know, so I'll wait for them to come back and ask them, and I'll call you when I know. โ
"Speaking of the south of Xinxing, there is a Taoist temple called Namo Temple, do you know where it is?"
"Namo, such a strange name? You wait for me to think about it. โ
"It's okay, if you can't think of it, wait for them to come back, and call them to think about it together." I feel that Zhuang Yan is not polite to the editor-in-chief, maybe their relationship is like this.
"I'm not very familiar with the Taoist temple, but I remember that there is a Nanwu Temple in Nanxi Village, could it be the Namor Temple you are looking for? Oh, it must be! โ
The editor-in-chief's tone made Zhuang Yan and I both sit up straight.
"In my impression, the two words of Nan Wu in Buddhism Amitabha Buddha, the Sanskrit pronunciation is Namo, but why does Taoism have a Buddhist meaning, you have to ask ......"
"Thank you!" Before the editor-in-chief's words were finished, Zhuang Yan hung up the phone excitedly, "That's it!" โ
It also dawned on me, hehe, there are still knowledgeable and literate people, and I even thought of the pronunciation in Sanskrit, which helped me find this legendary view of the south (nฤ) without (mรณ) just name.
The two of us quickly finished lunch and walked to the Taoist temple on the mountain.
Because we had just eaten enough, we didn't walk fast and walked up the stairs.
When I arrived at the Guankou, the old Taoist friend happened to come out of the Guanli, saw me and Zhuang Yan, and hurriedly walked two steps to meet him.
I hurriedly greeted him, but I didn't know how to talk.
"Daoyou come from afar, rude and rude!" The old man is the same as the last time, nothing has changed.
"Hello, hello, the Taoist temple of Taoist friends is so hard to find." I folded my hands together and saluted him.
"There is nothing difficult in the world..... I don't know what is the matter with friends coming?" The old man didn't mean to let us in, but stopped us at the door.
"That's right, you gave me a baby last time. It's too precious, and besides, I haven't been able to figure it out. I don't want the baby to be buried, so I want to return it to Daoyou. โ
"Oh!" The old man looked surprised.
"It's not a secret, this is called the Tiangang Mirror, and there are only three sides in the world. But I really don't know the mystery, and I feel that staying with me is also tyrannical, and it is better to return it to its original owner. I respectfully handed over the Tiangang Mirror with both hands. To tell you the truth, I'm sincere, and I'm much better than them in terms of the convenience of exorcism and finding exorcism commissions. Even if the spirit world withholds my merits, it really doesn't affect me much.
The old man took the Tiangang mirror, looked it up and down twice, and said to me: "To be honest, I also got it by accident, and I really don't know the specific use. I just think it's a baby.,It should be used by people who have a chance.,Last time you said you opened your eyes congenitally.,I think you're a person with a fate.ใ Whether it's just three sides or one side, I think it's up to you to unlock the secrets. โ
After speaking, he forcefully returned the Tiangang mirror plug to me.
I couldn't push it, so I had to hold it in my hand again.
"Are you going out? If you want me to help, please feel free to speak. "Take the mirror and install it, and I will be polite to the old man.
"I'm going out, it's not necessary to help, just let the bad guys practice."
"Then don't bother." I saluted the old man and said goodbye.
Seeing that the master and apprentice, one old and one young, followed the client, Zhuang Yan and I decided to go around the Taoist temple.
As soon as he arrived at the door, the ancestor spoke: "Wait, I won't go inside, leave me outside, and come and take me when I go out later." โ
"Why?"
"Don't ask so much, there's a small shop over there, you go over, I'll hide there first."
I just remembered that the ancestor is also a soul now, and he can't see the light. I came to the Yin Si supplies store, pretended to ask the price of a few things, the ancestor entered the small shop, and Zhuang Yan and I turned around and went back to the Taoist temple.
There are also two Taoist priests in the Taoist temple, and there are not many good men and women, and only during some major festivals, it will be lively. Actually, I don't know much about Taoism in China, and the master basically didn't talk about anything, so Zhuang Yan saw it very well. The Taoist temple is not big, there are many stone tablets inside, I just walked and looked at the flowers, but Zhuang Yan almost took pictures of the stone tablets inside. Maybe it's because of her work, I don't interfere much, I just feel that when I enter the Taoist temple, I feel refreshed.
I found a Taoist priest who looked like he was forty or fifty years old, "The Taoist is polite, I want to ask a question, don't you know if it's convenient?" โ
The Taoist priest turned around and solemnly returned the salute: "Layman, please speak." โ
"This is a Taoist temple, I don't know why the name seems to be a Buddhist meaning, can you say it conveniently?"
"Oh! I don't know about this, it's so old that I can't verify it, so I'm sorry. The Taoist priest saluted again and went to work on his own.
It didn't take long for Yao to speak in the jade pendant, "Childe, why don't you go out first!" It's not comfortable here. โ
I hurriedly told Zhuang Yan to wait for her outside, let her appreciate it slowly inside, and went out with Yao first.
Out of the Taoist Temple, I went around the Taoist Temple, where people can go, and observed the Nanwuguan a little away, and found that the foundation of the Taoist Temple is a little strange, like a certain formation mechanism design, which has the effect of driving away evil spirits. No wonder Yao felt uncomfortable after staying inside for a while, and the inside was unusually clean, and there was nothing evil to do. At first, I wanted to go into the Tao to watch it, and I also said that if there was something, I would help them deal with it, but now it seems that it is completely my own passion.
In the Yin Si supplies store next to the Taoist temple, I took the ancestor back to my body, and asked him in my heart if there were any useful Heavenly Master supplies here, I wanted to buy some if it was suitable, I was too lazy to look at it myself.
"I won't see it!" The first ancestor didn't know if he was lazy or wanted to see what I was capable of, so he didn't answer me directly.
I looked at the drawn talismans, and it seemed that from time to time I could still see a few useful ones, and the boss asked for twenty-one, and sold at least five.
I don't think it's expensive, this rune paper is raised, and it's cheaper than raising it yourself to draw. I handed a hundred to my boss and was ready to pick five.
"Sir, I'm sorry, the minimum is five, you can't pick it, you can only take five in order." The owner kindly put away the money and explained to me with a smile.
'What kind of routine is this?' โ
"Why? Then I don't want it. I hurriedly reached out and asked the boss for my hundred dollars back. If you take it in order, you can only get one useful charm for 100 yuan, and I don't want to be wronged.
"Oh!" The boss looked unwilling, and took out the hundred yuan from the small satchel just now.
After collecting the money, I couldn't help but wonder, "Why can't you pick?" Did you do that in this transaction? โ
"Do you know, this talisman was painted by the master of Guanli, and he confessed that he can only sell five pieces in order, and he can't let the guests pick them. Why don't you take a look at my mahogany sword, this is a new purchase this year. "The boss enthusiastically took a few mahogany swords for me to choose from.
I understand what Daoyou means, that is, to let the person who buys the talisman buy a really useful talisman, and it can also make the boss earn some money. The charms interspersed in the middle with average effects should have been drawn by his apprentices, and the good ones were naturally drawn by him. Forget it, in order not to disagree with the boss's face, I began to pick up the peachwood sword.
"How many?" There is no doubt that the processing technology is okay, and the surface is polished very smooth.
"Forty-one, give thirty if you want." The boss made an OK or three gesture with a profiteer's face.
"One hundred and fifteen, take care of your business."
The boss gestured to change, "Four!" โ
I put down the peachwood sword in my hand and prepared to take a look at another one.
"Take it, take it! Seeing that you don't come often, I should give you more gifts. "The boss looked like he had suffered a big loss.
"Don't you have it?" Zhuang Yan didn't know when she came behind me.
Paying the money with one hand and choosing the sword with the other, I picked out five peachwood swords that looked relatively strong. "Buy more and be prepared, as the saying goes, plan ahead!"
"Give me a handful for self-defense!" Zhuang Yan saw that I took five handfuls and said happily.
"This is natural, the one at home will give it to you."
"Stingy, can't you send a new one?" Zhuang Yan looked like a layman, which made me want to laugh.
"By the way, how about this temple?"
"I didn't expect that this Nanwuguan actually existed in the Song Dynasty, and it is still a monument? Let the two big fools look for a long time. "Zhuang Yan smiles like a flower, really good-looking.
But I only dare to smirk at the 'two big fools' she said.
"What are you smirking at? โฆโฆ No, it was a fool who searched for a long time, and finally let a peerless beauty find it. โ
Unexpectedly, Zhuang Yan has no face and no skin, and she is better than me.
"What else do you see besides historical sources?"
"No, such a long-standing Taoist temple, I only found out today, and I felt strange. What about you! Do you see anything else? โ
"It's not a problem, it's just that I think this Taoist temple should be an ancestral heavenly master, or a Taoist priest, and it should be built to hold something, and it should have a great use. It's just that my current knowledge is not enough to solve the puzzle. The old Taoist friend doesn't seem to have any intention of communicating with me, forget it, it's good to know the place, and if there is something to do in the future. After speaking, Zhuang Yan and I walked down the mountain and went home.
