Chapter 1: The Daily Life of Two Singles
In the southwest corner, on the north bank of the Wenjiang River.
Fertile soil is 100 miles, a county in Pingchuan.
This is a county called Chun.
But spring is not called.
That's right, the four seasons here are like spring, and the county is named after the season.
Spring County sits on a plain, debauchery and openness, and there is only a mountain in the north of the county.
It was a mountain called Barren.
However, barrenness is really called out.
The barren mountain is not high or big, and it looks like a dirt bag from a distance, but it is a cup.
The soil and rocks on the mountain are dry and hard, and the trees are sparse, making it unsuitable for farming.
What a barren mountain.
In order not to waste resources and adapt measures to local conditions, the people of Chunxian County regard the barren mountain as a place to bury bones.
Therefore, Barren Mountain is a veritable grave mountain.
In addition to the tomb, there is also a Taoist temple on the mountain.
The Taoist temple falls on the mountainside of the barren mountain, only an old mud tile house, with wood carved columns, eaves hanging corners, barely maintaining a bit of Taoist image.
Starting from the foot of the mountain, go up the bluestone steps, just over a hundred steps, you can see the pines and cypresses on the left and right of the Taoist temple entrance nailed with blue spray cloth.
Two lines of large red characters are printed on it.
Zuo Shu 'sit alone in the secluded fence, heaven and man are one.' ’
On the right, 'the three clears are above, and I look at the true spirit. ’
At the entrance of the view, a plaque is hung to criticize the 'True Spirit Taoist Temple'.
There are two straw futons in the view, three layers of pine steps are built in front of the futon, and on the steps is a wooden case with a length and width of one meter, on which is a seven-inch size incense burner, and there are six cans of sticks next to the incense burner.
"Xiaofan, someone is here, go to pick up guests."
After the wooden case, the middle-aged Taoist who was lying down and playing with his mobile phone was startled, tied the oily robe with a straw rope, straightened the hairpin made of bamboo chopsticks on the small bun, and narrowed his eyes slightly, stroked the chest-length goatee with one hand, and dotted the mobile phone screen with the other hand.
The young man who was called Xiaofan was sitting behind the merit box next to the wooden case and dozing off, and when he heard that there was a guest, he took out a handful of incense bags that had been bundled long ago from behind the stone carvings of the Sanqing Daoists, jumped down the steps directly, and ran out of the door.
The incense package is also three stacks of paper money, a handful of sandalwood and a short cannon.
The cost is only three yuan, but there is no upper limit to the selling price.
"Sell incense, sell incense, Sanqing Taoist people show incense .........."
Standing under the plaque, the young man stretched his neck down the mountain, and sure enough, he caught a glimpse of a man and a woman coming with shoulders on their backs.
The man is as short and fat as a ball, holding a briefcase in his left hand, holding Xiao Yanagi's waist with his right hand, and reaching into the woman's wide open collar with his palm in his hand, dribbling.
The woman is dressed coolly, her figure is hot, half of her body is leaning on the short and fat man, her small mouth is close to the fat head and big ears, she is blowing like an orchid, and she is constantly laughing.
The passionate interaction between the two reminded the boy of a poem.
The day is full of clothes, and the yellow water flows.
However, the spicy picture is not the focus at the moment.
The focus is on the diamond watch on the wrist of the short and fat man, the large gold chain around his neck, and the gold rings on both hands.
Cool women's designer bags and pigeon eggs.
In the eyes of the young man, these two people are simply golden pigs walking upright waiting to be slaughtered.
"Boss, boss, if you want to enter the true spiritual view, you must buy the true spiritual incense, first burn the wealth and roll the money, and then order the incense that responds to the request, and after putting everything into the wish, the future is immeasurable from now on, and the longevity is boundless."
Seeing the two of them come forward, the young man hurriedly greeted him, handing incense with both hands and smiling all over his face.
"It's amazing, even the wild children in the mountains are so good at talking, come on, I'll buy the incense, and the rest is a tip."
The short and fat man was torn open by the young man's yellow tooth and big mouth, collected the ball and pumped his hand, and took out a big red bill from the briefcase to exchange it for the sachet in the young man's hand.
"Thank you, boss, making a move is a good start, and you will definitely have good luck in the future."
The boy took the banknote, his eyes glowed golden, and his mouth became sweeter.
"Mr. Ma, now that information is so developed, just these blessings, open the mobile phone a lot, and you will give 100 yuan for a handful of incense for three yuan, which is too expensive."
The cool woman snorted softly, and her chest was shaking wildly with both hands holding the short elbow of the short fat man, and the voice was so sound that it could make Microsoft hard.
This is an opportunity to show his good character of thrifty housekeeping.
The young man was obviously well-informed, and before the short and fat man could speak, he answered with a grin:
"I didn't expect the proprietress to be not only as beautiful as a flower, but also so blue-hearted, at a glance I can see the cost of my incense is only three yuan, it is simply a female Bodhisattva in the world, if you use the Sanqing spiritual fragrance of our true spiritual view, you will not be young forever, and you will envy the immortals."
Before the young man finished speaking, the cool girl giggled and bent over, the three words of the proprietress had hit the cool point, and the follow-up praise made her go straight to the climax.
"Stinky brother, I'm so comfortable with your rainbow fart, come, this is my sister's reward for you."
The cool woman opened her bag briskly, grabbed a handful of red tickets and stuffed them directly into the young man's hand, and then entered the Taoist temple with the short and fat man.
Sent it.
That's got to be a thousand.
It's the first time I've caught so much money in ten years.
Sure enough, women's money is easy to make.
The young man thanked him loudly, and at the moment when the two of them entered the door to block the middle-aged Taoist, he suddenly pulled open his belt and stuffed the money into the crotch of his pants, leaving only a red ticket in his pocket.
In order not to expose the mystery, the young man walked to the door with his legs between his legs, not planning to sit back behind the plan.
But soon, he regretted it.
After the two gold owners entered the view, they lit the paper money, burned the sandalwood and inserted the incense burner, and knelt on the futon to worship the stone statue of the Sanqing Daoist.
The moment the cool woman bent down and knelt, her collar was wide open, making the middle-aged Taoist who was sitting on the steps widen her eyes, and white flowers flashed in her straight eyeballs, and saliva flowed down her goatee between the rolling of her Adam's apple.
This scene was seen by the young man, and his bowels were blue.
The master is too disagreeable, and the Sanqing Patriarch dares to forget to watch the ball, what kind of system it becomes.
The young man complained in his heart, and hurriedly ran up the steps, but the two gold owners had already stood up.
"Xiaofan, fire guns for the two donors."
The middle-aged Taoist chief coughed, closed his eyes and groaned, and out of nowhere, he found a feather duster-like whisk, shook it violently, raised a few pieces of chicken feathers, and switched his expression to the original.
The young man pursed his lips, took out the lighter, picked up the short cannon on the plan, lit the fuse, and before the spark splashed, he threw the short cannon behind the stone statue.
Seeing that she was about to set off the cannon, the cool woman had already covered her ears and snuggled into the arms of the short and fat man.
However, after waiting for a moment, no cannon fired.
Going up the hill to pay a visit and lighting a squib is not a good sign.
Even if people nowadays don't believe in evil, they still have to be auspicious.
"Boy, don't you say that this is a good luck cannon, how can it be a squib that eats Coptis chinensis."
The short and fat man immediately stretched his face, and the tiger glared at the young man, his eyes showing a fierce light.
"Don't panic this donor, this cannon is not dumb, but I don't know what the two of you want, it can't be realized, you might as well make a wish to take the lot, and then listen to the cannon when the sign lands, so as to know the spirituality of my true spiritual Taoist view."
The middle-aged Taoist chief stroked his long beard without changing his face, as if he had known that this would happen.
"What, you can still have a sign, okay, if it doesn't sound again, don't blame me for demolishing your temple."
The short and fat man obviously didn't believe what the Taoist said, and he felt like he was being fooled.
"Yes or no, ask for a sign to see it, there are six signs in front of you, which are asking for wealth, asking for children, asking for marriage, asking for blessings, asking for Lu, asking for longevity, the two of you according to what you want in your heart, please do it yourself."
The Taoist chief was not angry with the short and fat man's disrespectful words, and he still looked like an old god.
"Mr. Ma, since what this Taoist chief said is so effective, then let's draw one."
The cool girl had already asked to go up the mountain, but now she was even more interested in the middle-aged Taoist.
"There are too many superstitious liars now, and I guess they are all put on the sign."
The short and fat man snorted, raised his hand to pick up the sub-word sign holder on the plan, looked at the sticks one by one, and found that the size and shape of the sticks were the same, not all of them were signed, on the contrary, the sign was only one of the many signs, so he closed his eyes tightly and shook his heart thoughtfully.
The cool girl picked up a marriage sign holder and began to shake it in the same way.
Seeing the pious appearance of the two, the young man bit his lip and held back the smile that reached his mouth.
These sticks really don't see the problem, but except for the upper sign is copper, the others are iron sticks, and the bottom of the stick barrel is sandwiched with a magnet, and under the gentle shake, fools will shake out the copper sticks.
Two bells.
The two fools withdrew their hands suddenly, and the two sticks fell to the ground, and the young man who had been prepared for a long time pressed his fingers slightly on the pocket, and the crackling sound of firecrackers immediately sounded behind the stone statue, and there were faint sparks.
"God, the cannon really went off!"
"Mr. Ma, let's see what it is."
The two were stunned, their faces were full of surprise, and when they picked up the sign on the ground, they saw the three words on it, and the two hugged each other excitedly and enthusiastically, and almost cheered.
"The sincerity of the two donors, the firecrackers are flowers, it must be the sign of the good luck, the sign of the top, congratulations to the two of them for the blessing of the three Qingdao people, the merit is immeasurable, the merit is immeasurable, the merit is immeasurable, the merit is .........."
The middle-aged Taoist chief seemed to have witnessed a great happy event, and immediately smiled, full of praise, his eyes rolled, and finally simply hit the merit box with a whisk, and the word merit was heavy and heavy.
"Well, if there is really some spirituality, there will naturally be no less merit."
The short and fat man is also a clear-eyed person, who doesn't know the meaning of the long words, decisively opened the briefcase, grabbed a handful of red tickets and stuffed them into the merit box, and made a few gestures towards the stone statue, before hugging the cool girl and humming a little song down the mountain.
Seeing the two fat gold owners walk away, the middle-aged Taoist leader hurriedly opened the merit box, grabbed the red ticket in his hand, and counted it tremblingly, and the young man on the side reluctantly took out a red ticket, and only after being entangled again and again did he consciously hand it over.
The young man's name is Chen Bufan, when he was eight years old, his family was flooded, his parents drowned, and he was left alone to escape to the True Spirit Taoist Temple in the barren mountain, and was accepted as an apprentice by the middle-aged Taoist master, and it has been ten years in a flash.
As for the Taoist chief, he only knows the surname Jia, except for the charlatans, he has never taught the young man a little Taoism.
"I heard that you went to the Immortal Spring in the back mountain yesterday."
Jia Daochang took the red money handed by Chen Bufan and licked the copper smell all over his hands, and he was still unsatisfied.
Nowadays, big fish like this are rare.
"Yes, Master."
Chen Bufan lowered his head and answered honestly.
"Peeking at girls taking a bath, it's enjoyable to watch."
Jia Daochang narrowed his eyes slightly, and he looked forced.
"Yes, teacher....... No, no, Master, I just went to the back mountain yesterday to pick up materials. ”
Chen Bufan's face jumped, and he suddenly had a bad premonition.
"There's a girl named Long Ling, who has a really good figure, your eyes are straight."
Jia Daochang took two steps closer to Chen Bufan, and his tone became aggressive.
"There's really nothing to say about the figure, no, no, no....... I didn't see anything. ”
Chen Bufan almost entered the set, and his head shook like a rattle.
"It's all exposed, and it's still stubborn, this little cub actually did such a degrading thing, and took off his pants to serve the rules."
"Master, I'm so old, and I still take off my pants, I'm not ashamed."
"How can I get money without taking off my pants."
"Even this has been discovered by you, I admit it, can't I turn it in?"
"Things without conscience, your master and I haven't even got my wife together, and you still want to hide your secrets."
"Master, don't I learn from you, and I also want to save my wife's book."
"Rabbit cub, the hair hasn't grown together, so I miss a woman, see if I don't discount your three legs."
"Oh, the gentleman doesn't move his mouth, by the way, Master, how do you know that I peeked at the bath, and the dragon spirit."
"This, the secret of heaven must not be leaked, it must not be leaked."
Elder Jia Dao's face flushed, as if he was looking for a crack in the ground, and hurriedly walked behind the stone statue, and after a while, the voice came from behind the stone statue:
"Xiaofan, come here, I have something to tell you."
Get down to business!
Could it be that you are looking for a daughter-in-law for me?
Chen Bufan had never heard the old god stick talk about business, and he was really a little uncomfortable for a while.
