I fainted, and I woke up. Lin Xiao didn't get up, staring at the stars in the sky in a daze. Suddenly, he felt that life was so good. No one can be truly calm in the face of life and death. Everyone imagines the stars in the sky, shining forever and warmly, warming every person, every grass, and every tree around them.

"How long have I been dizzy?" Lin Xiao knew that the old man was sitting with his eyes closed not far from him.

"One day and one night."

"One day and one night you let me lie like this? I don't know if I'm going to cover something. ”

"If you feel cold, no matter how much clothing you cover, it will be cold. It's summer. ”

"Do I really only have two years to live?" Lin Xiao got up, brushed his messy hair, and asked with difficulty.

The old man opened his eyes and said slowly, "Yes and no." All the way in life, life and death are often in the same thought. The withered yellow leaves fall to the ground, do you say it is dead or alive? ”

"So, I still have a chance?" Lin Xiao was a little agitated in his heart and looked forward to it.

"You'd better think you're dying." The old man stood up and patted Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao was stunned, and immediately laughed, laughing until tears fell, and he couldn't tell the joy and sorrow in his heart.

"Either way, no matter what. It doesn't matter if it's two years, it's better than seeing Hades inexplicably. It's quite exciting to think about, ha, I'm also a ghost seeker. Thank you again. Looking at your obscene and trivial appearance, I didn't expect to have the ability to reach the sky. Oops, the old man is very bad. By the way, what's your name? "Lin Xiao's role as a scoundrel changed quickly.

The old man lifted his foot and scolded: "Look at you, you also look like an intellectual." The's mouth is too damaged. Also rural children? You don't have the simple appearance of a rural person. You kid must be a single, right? Yes, it's definitely singles. At first glance, he is a single, not only a single, but also an unlucky single. ”

When the old man spoke, it was like a machine gun, piercing the dignity that a man cares about the most.

Lin Xiao is bitter in his heart, the god stick is a god stick in the end, and his mouth is unforgiving. "The man Hejaz is in all directions, how can he covet the private affairs of his children?"

Against your will! As a healthy adult male, he scratches his heart and lungs countless days and nights. Lin Xiao asked himself that his appearance is also quite online, and there are also college girls who secretly send Qiubo, but the conditions do not allow it, it is a problem for rural children to make ends meet, what can I do? Only to cut off the autumn waves and pretend to be cold.

Throughout the ages, emperors and generals, literati and writers, and beauties are the standard. Therefore, Lin Xiao is a failure.

The old man glanced at Lin Xiao with disdain, too lazy to speak. Lin Xiao rushed to the old man, stared at the old man's eyes and said, "That's not right." You should be a bachelor too, right? ”

The old man's body trembled, and he stood with his hands in his hands, staring into the distance, and no longer speaking.

Lin Xiao rubbed his buttocks and said to himself: "The night of the heavenly steps is as cold as water, sit and watch the Cowherd and Vega." ”

"I'm Lin Xiao."

"Settle on a person."

So, two men, two singles, lonely figures, stood for a long time.

"Worship me as a teacher." Ding Yi said in a deep voice.

Lin Xiao listened, didn't speak, bowed his head, "dong dong" three rings, and a "master" was extremely solemn. Because Lin Xiao knew that Dingyi was a person who had never lived in his life, and he had no money or power, and he was a down-and-out college student, he was really good for himself to help himself like this. Being able to worship him as a teacher is a blessing for Lin Xiao. In his heart, Lin Xiao respects this old man.

Dingyi nodded, but his heart was mixed, and the silence just now was precisely his inner struggle.

Lin Xiao is a good boy, this skill of knowing people, Dingyi is still very confident. Although Lin Xiao is a little flamboyant and cynical, he must understand the bitterness in Lin Xiao's heart.

A rural child wants to take root in the city, and he has to bear and pay far more than his peers, especially this child has his own pride. Life is so bitter, you always need some sweetness to survive.

But Dingyi is still a little unwilling, and he chose thousands of things, and he chose such a thing for some reason. Maybe that's providence.

"Get up, come with me." Now that the title of master and apprentice has been established, Dingyi no longer thinks about it.

"Yes, Master."

I don't know how long I walked, the east gradually whitened, and far away, a river of turbid water ran through the east and west. The riverside is mostly dense forests, and in this summer, it adds a touch of coolness. Dingyi flashed into a dense forest path, and Lin Xiao hurriedly followed. After a while, he came to a small courtyard.

Red bricks and green tiles, a fenced courtyard, and a clear pond in the courtyard, coupled with this full of green, it is simply a paradise. Entering the house, the furniture is scattered and antique, and the environment is bright and clean, spotless. Lin Xiao couldn't help but secretly give a thumbs up in his heart, people can't look good, it seems that this master has good taste.

I went straight to a hut in the backyard, which looked like a Buddha hall but not a Buddha hall, and an offering table was not a Buddha statue but a painting. Lin Xiao looked at it, his head was a little confused, it was Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor! Is it ......?

Dingyi said at this time: "Incense, kowtow!" Lin Xiaoyi said.

After the ceremony. "Lin Xiao, I know you have a lot of doubts. Now that you've got through my door, there are some things I need to tell you. Ke Weishi now has an important thing to ask you, can you drink? ”

Lin Xiao was asked confusedly, which important question is this. It can't be a test, right? However, Lin Xiao still replied honestly: "Master, my family lives in a small mountain village in the Mengshan area at the junction of Sichuan and Guizhou. The climate there is humid and cold, and the wine can ward off the cold, so you can still drink some of it. ”

"It's good to be able to drink, it's good to be able to drink." Dingyi laughed, his eyes showed a rare sense of approval, "I think you're also a little hungry, you go to the front room to sit down, I'll get two snacks, and our master and apprentice will have a good drink to relieve fatigue." ”

Dare to love the master is still a drunkard! Lin Xiao was surprised, but the wine worm was also hooked, which was the first time he and his master had a common language.

Many people will say that there is something good about wine, bitter and spicy. Yes, wine is nothing more than two tastes, bitter and spicy; Drinkers are nothing more than two postures, pick up and put down. Life is like wine, if you can afford to take the bitter and spicy, you should also be able to let go of the bitter and spicy. Drinking, sometimes what is not drunk is wine, what is drunk is the taste of the world.

The action of the person was also fast, and after a while, the side dishes were ready to be eaten. Peanuts, mixed cucumbers, beef in sauce, plus a bottle of two-pot head was quietly served.

"Don't underestimate this bottle of Erguotou, a good wine that has been treasured for more than ten years, today, our master and apprentice will clean it up. Here, pour the wine. Dingyi boasted.

Lin Xiao hurriedly picked up the wine bottle, filled it with a given person and his own cup, stood up, raised his glass and said, "Master, apprentice toasts you." ”

"It doesn't have to be that way. There is no seniority at the wine table, drinking is the mood, don't fix these empty heads. Here, open up, kill it. ”

As soon as I drank it, the spicy food entered my throat, and the aroma of wine overflowed, and Dingyi people slowly opened the conversation.

The name of the sect of the Dingyi people is Tianyi. Lin Xiao's guess is right, the ancestor of Tianyi is Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor. Although a person is called a Taoist, he is not a person in the Tao.

To be precise, Tianyi does not belong to any of the three schools of Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism, but walks in the world beyond the three schools, and its history is much longer than that of the three schools.

Back then, Pangu opened the world, Nuwa incarnated into all things, and the earth began to be vibrant. But where there are people, there is fighting, and there is killing. At that time, the tribes were divided into separate formations, and the people were in dire straits, and the people were struggling to make a living, and blood stained the land. Among them, Chiyou is the most brutal, relying on the descendants of the gods, and assisted by eighty-one brothers, causing chaos in the world.

In the chaotic era, there are always heroic characters to relieve the people from hanging. The Yellow Emperor was the leader of the ancient Chinese tribes, and he was the master of the people, so he cultivated virtue and revitalized the army, Lixian corporal, took the queen of the wind as the phase, and the force of the herd as the general, and fought with Chiyou dozens of battles before and after, and finally killed Chiyou in the suburbs of Zhulu. However, in order to prevent its resurrection, the Yellow Emperor buried his head and limbs everywhere.

Although Chi You is dead, his soul is not scattered, floating away in the dark places, inciting resentment in the world, stealing people's minds, charming people's hearts, and continuing to bring disaster to the world. The Yellow Emperor felt this, and gave the five elements and eight laws of the pastor, and passed it on to the destined people to walk in the world. Take the road of the world, do exorcism of ghosts and evil things, and the right path of the world.

However, many of the five elements and eight methods of the year have been lost to the present, such as today, all of them in a door are "Tianyi Five Elements Technique" and two of the eight methods, "Suppressing Ghosts" and "Divine Calculation".

"Master, how can our Tianyi be similar to the ability of Taoism? Aren't they all exorcisms? ”

"You know!" Dingyi threw his hand and gave Lin Xiao a brain melon seed, "All laws have similarities, and all laws have uniqueness." When the teacher teaches you the Dharma, you will know. ”

"But Master, your apprentice and I only have two years to live, can I learn this to prolong my life?" This question is actually what Lin Xiao wants to ask the most.

Dingyi nodded, shook his head again, sighed, and recounted what the blue-faced ghost general Zhang Benchu had said. Lin Xiao was originally a person whose longevity was about to end, and it was also because of his kindness that he couldn't bear to ask Zhang Benchu to help save Lin Xiao.

In the day and night when Lin Xiao was asleep, Dingyi people couldn't figure out Lin Xiao's future after calculation, but he faintly felt that Lin Xiao and Tianyimen seemed to have a connection.

"Lin Xiao, you still have two years left in your life, this is true. Because ninety percent of your soul power is gone, the remaining one percent will gradually dissipate over time. So if we want to live, what we have to do is to reshape ninety percent of the soul power, which is tantamount to reshaping life. The difficulty is not something that can be explained in a few words. You have to be prepared for this. ”

Lin Xiao poured the wine in the cup into his mouth and said, "Master, I understand. How can it be so easy to change one's life against the sky. Still, it's always good to have hope. Isn't man living for a hope? Even if there is only one in 10,000 chances, I want to make it a reality. Grandma, I haven't married a daughter-in-law yet? I hung up like this, and I panicked about the loss. ”

"Well, a man must have the courage to sacrifice himself. I want to be a teacher back then, and I also used a sword to shuttle between the two worlds of yin and yang, killing ghosts and howling, and no one could stop me. Dingyi drank a little too much, and began to speak incoherently, "Oh mom, it seems to have been drunk." ”

"Bang", a certain person fell headlong on the table, and he snored.

"How much is this drinking? Still unstoppable? Damn, why am I dizzy? Then, there was another "bang".
