Chapter 92: The Fat Man's View of the Fairy Lake

In the morning, when I was brushing my teeth, I heard the fat man downstairs shouting: Daheng! Daheng! Hurry up! Let's go!

I ran to the balcony to see that the fat man was leaning against his cheetah car and calling me. Then a head sticks out of the window and beckons to me, it is Xiaoxia.

When the fat man saw that my mouth was full of bubbles, he pointed at me with a disgusted expression, and then got into the car. I went back to speed up and saw that the family and children were ready, all wearing sunhats and waiting. Children fight in the living room for hats.

When I was done, I picked up my eldest son and went out with everyone, and he was the naughtiest one. Downstairs, my brother-in-law was smoking and chatting with the fat man.

I asked Jiang Ming? The fat man said that he went to buy food, and he was afraid that Blue Moon would be hungry!

The fat man said hello to my parents and teased the son in my arms. When he turned his head and saw the brown sugar girl with a big belly, he shook his head and sighed, saying that if he has a child, he still can't catch up with you!

Jiang Ming drove over, lowered the window, and I said hello to Lan Yue. When he saw Jiang Ming's parents, he called out again, uncle, aunt, hello. Looking down again, I didn't see Xiaohua. Jiang Ming said that Xiaohua hasn't had a summer vacation yet.

Jiang Ming saw the brown sugar girl and said Daheng, you are really a thunderbolt! It's really appropriate to describe you with lightning speed, your brown sugar girl actually has it again. And Brown Sugar Girl and Blue Moon are happily chatting about pregnancy and exchanging pregnancy experiences with each other.

Mom and Dad went to ride the fat man's car, and then everyone set off. The four cars went out of the city and headed towards the Fairy Lake Temple.

The Immortal Lake View is in the Bajia Mountain, and there is a large lake with dozens of acres of water surface next to the Taoist Temple, which is called the Fairy Lake, and the Taoist Temple on the shore is the Fairy Lake Temple. It is a mid-mountain lake with a goose barrier in its back. Fairy Lake is like a Yao Pond far away from the world, the lake water is clean, clear and beautiful.

The land of Xianhu was originally called "Xianjiayuan". The vicinity of the Taoist temple was a long time ago a eunuch hall, a place where nuns retreated. Later, the nuns disappeared, and some ruined foundations of the nunnery remained.

The Taoist temple is named after the lake, the lake is colored because of the Taoist temple, and the Taoist temple surrounded by fairy spirit is very beautiful, giving people a sense of tranquility and comfort.

The fat man took us into the fairy lake view, and there were three or two Taoist priests in the view. When the little Taoist priest saw the fat man, he would salute and call the senior brother good. It seems that the fat man has a very high status in the view. When he saw the old Taoist priest, the fat man went up to say hello and called Uncle Shi.

Jiang Ming and I performed the Taoist salute with one hand, and then called out "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable".

I asked the fat man, how many people are in your view. The fat man said that there were less than thirty people, there were six senior uncles, more than twenty junior disciples, plus the master and him, less than thirty people.

The Immortal Lake Temple is also a thousand-year-old Taoist temple, but it is very small, about the same size as the Nanzhen Temple, and the temple production will be a little more. The whole Taoist temple is a blue brick and wood structure, which looks antique. There is a lot of greenery inside and outside the Taoist temple, and there are hundreds of years old trees outside the wall. There are also several rows of Taoist houses outside the view, and there is a large vegetable field in the distance.

Jiang Ming's Pavilion Soap Sect has more than 50 people, but the entire Pavilion Soap Mountain is the temple property of Chongzhen Palace, and the land is very large. The Pavilion Soap Sect used to be very glorious and had many temples, but they were all drowned in the long river of history.

The fat man's fairy lake view is less than 30 people, but it has been operating for thousands of years, and the sense of history is heavy, although the temple property is not much, but 100 people are self-sufficient. Moreover, the Taoist temple incense is prosperous, and from time to time I see believers coming in to burn incense and donate merits.

And my Nanzhen view is only me and the master. It is said that there is a lot of land around the temple, but there is no one to cultivate it in the barren mountains and mountains. If you want to develop, the foundation is still quite good.

Am I going to a university where I can get a group of juniors to come over? Well! This has to be on the agenda.

The fat man took me and Jiang Ming to bow to the Sanqing Patriarch, offer incense, and then kowtow to each god and bow down. This is called entering the temple to worship the gods, and entering the house to call people, which is a universal ritual.

The Sanqing Patriarch is the ancestor of Taoism, namely: Yuqing Holy Realm Supreme Enlightenment First Dengpangu Yuan Shi Tianzun, Shangqing Halal Realm Yuchen Daojun Lingbao Tianzun, and Wanjiao Mixed Yuan Sect Master Taishang Laojun Daode Tianzun. Let's just remember the three ancestors of Yuan Shi Tianzun, Lingbao Tianzun, and Daode Tianzun.

There are many sects of Taoism, and each sect has its own founding patriarch. For example: Ge Xuan, the founder of the Ge Soap Sect (Lingbao School), Tao Hongjing, the founder of the Maoshan Sect (Shangqing School), and Zhang Daoling, the founder of the Dragon and Tiger Sect (Zhengyi).

Ge Xuan, Zhang Daoling, Xu Xun, and Sa Shoujian are also known as the Four Great Heavenly Masters.

I am from the Heavenly Master Dao Shenxiao School, the founder is Wang Wenqing in the late Northern Song Dynasty, and Lin Lingsu, who wrote books and lectures for the Shenxiao School. The Sanqing Patriarch and the Four Great Heavenly Masters, as well as Wang Wenqing and Lin Lingsu, will all be worshiped when the Nanzhen Temple is built in the future.

Everyone often hears me mention Longhu Mountain, Mao Mountain, and Gesoap Mountain, mainly these are the three mountains of Fujing. They are the three most powerful sects that play talismans. Of course, other factions also play talismans, like the fat man's fairy lake view, but they are not professional.

The influential sects of Taoism are divided into Lingbao faction, Zhengyi faction, Jingming faction, Qingyin faction, Maoshan faction, etc. The true path is divided into the Southern Sect and the Northern Sect. Tribes such as Longmen faction, Yuxian faction, Nanwu faction, Suishan faction, Yuanshan faction, Huashan faction, Qingjing faction, etc.

Sometimes the difference between sect, sect, Taoism, and religion is not very clear, and a sect refers to a certain Taoist temple. Sects, Taoism and religions are sometimes not very clearly distinguished, and they can be interconnected. Taoism is not a line, but a tree with three branches, and then countless branches.

The West says that our Taoists have the most immortals, which is called polytheism. Indeed, it is true that anyone who cultivates the Tao may become an immortal, and future generations can worship it.

A Taoist priest of the Zhengyi can get married, but the Quanzhen Dao can't get married, and that's the difference.

The major sects have divided into many descendant temples and jungle temples. The descendants of the temple came out of the big sect and founded their own sect. The jungle temple is a family temple that is scattered or other sects in the long history of attachment.

Fortunately, I'm not a Quanzhen Taoist, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to get married. My Nanzhen Temple is actually the descendant temple of the Shenxiao faction, but the big sect of the Shenxiao sect has declined, and the descendant temple can only take care of itself.

After the worship, the fat man took us to the reception room for tea. After sitting down, the children are more noisy and are not used to playing here. The atmosphere of the temple is more solemn, and the incense is burning, and children do not like it.

The fat man said that his master wanted to see Jiang Ming, and then took it with him. I'll take everyone slowly, out of the parking lot at the door, etc.

There is also a Fairy Lake Hotel on Guanlai Road in Fairy Lake, and Lan Yue proposed to wait in the hotel, otherwise the child would have to make trouble. Xiaoxia said that the restaurant has delicious specialties, and the fat man has ordered three good dishes on the table. The three children love to make noise, and the hotel venue is spacious and casual to play.

Xiaoxia and Lan Yue drove with big bellies and took us to the hotel. The decoration of the hotel is not luxurious, but it is better than the good air and wide venue. You can see half of the fairy lake from the window, and there is a gazebo at the entrance of the hotel, and the summer wind is very cool.

When it was almost time to eat, Jiang Ming and the fat man came over. The fat man said, originally the master also wanted to meet you, since you came to the hotel, let Jiang Ming tell you!

The fat man asked the boss to serve the food, and everyone was hungry. Women and children sit around one table, and the elders divide into two tables. The fat man's parents are not there, they are both in the countryside.

The food is very delicious, there are grass carp in the reservoir, not fishy, less thorns, children love to eat. There is also farmhouse tofu, hand-ground, and fried flour skin, which is also a local specialty. The best is the local baccalaure, which is tender and crispy, and has a very good taste.

Of course, the local chicken! Roast duck! Cooking goose and these local specialties are indispensable. Of course, in the countryside, I eat Tujia food, and the fragrance and taste are very good.

I chatted with the fat man while eating, and he talked more after a few glasses of wine. It turned out that the fat man had a serious illness at the age of five, and the local barefoot doctor used the wrong medicine and almost couldn't save him.

Then he met the fat man's master passing by, and only then did he save him. His parents said that the fat man's life was saved by his master, and he had a Taoist fate, and he was sent to the Taoist temple to become a monk after taking care of his body.

When the fat man came over, there was still a master, and his master was the senior brother, and the following six junior brothers. Accepting disciples in the eighties was not an easy task. So the fat man came to the Taoist Temple at the age of five, and played in the Taoist Temple from childhood to adulthood, just like his own home.

In the nineties, the master and ancestor drove the crane to the west, and then the fat man's master became the head, and gradually accepted more than 20 apprentices. Some of the more than 20 junior disciples of the fat man are older than the fat man, but the fat man came early, so all of them have to be respectfully called the fat man's senior brother.

The fat man is the big apprentice of the master, and he has lived in the Taoist temple for nearly 20 years, so he can be said to know everything about it. So when the fat man helped us a few years ago, he stole a lot of magic weapons from the temple while his master was out. Accompanying these magic weapons since childhood, the fat man has long learned to use them.

After the meal, the fat man took us to play around the fairy lake, and he was very familiar with the nearby mountains. He said that when he was a child, he could play for a day, touch fish, catch birds, catch small animals, and do everything. Although he is a little Taoist, he is similar to a wild child in the countryside.

The scenery around the fairy lake is very beautiful, and there is a goose barrier along the road. It is a very high mountain, surrounded by primeval forests that cover the sky and the sun, and there is an abandoned barracks on the top of the mountain.

Then pass through the fork in the road, there is also a waterfall dozens of meters high, called Wufu Waterfall. We dragged the family with the small ones, so we didn't go, just to play around.

By the end of the afternoon, the child was tired and visually tired, and he was clamoring to go back. Then we said goodbye to the fat man and went home.

I stayed at home for a month, accompanied Brown Sugar Sister to have a prenatal checkup, and saw that there was nothing wrong at home. I didn't worry about the construction of Nanzhenkan, so I drove there alone. The fat man has already taken Xiaoxia back to work. Jiang Ming also returned to the Pavilion Soap Sect.

When I arrived at the county seat, it was already late at night, and I was tired from driving for a day, so I decided to stay for one night first. This county town used to just pass by, so I wasn't familiar with it at all, and I drove around for a while. Seeing that there was a hotel in front of me, and a parking space, I parked the car and checked in.

It's already early in the morning after taking a shower, and I want to go to bed after drying my hair. But there was the sound of suona outside, and I pushed the window to see, and the window could only open a crack the size of a fist. There is a suona sound in the middle of the night, which is generally a Taoist priest's practice of overtaking the undead.

I ignored it, closed the window, drew the curtains, and fell asleep. I slept in a daze, and I felt that there was a person standing in front of the bed, and when I woke up and looked up, there was nothing.

When I woke up in the morning, I saw the front desk attendant and the cleaner mysteriously discussing something. The cleaner took the mop and leaned on the mop head to speak in a colorful voice. Looking at her slightly trembling body, she should be very scared. It's a pity I don't understand the local language.

The waiter asked me if I checked out? looked at her solemn face, as if something bad was about to happen. But I'm going to take a look around the county, and I'll stay for one more day, so I won't check out.

The county is dozens of kilometers away from Nanzhenguan, and I will often come to the county seat to purchase in the future, so familiarize yourself with the environment first! When you go out, there is a suburb not far to the right, and there should be no place to shop. Then I walked on the left and followed the street wherever it was busy.

People on the street were in groups of three or five, all discussing something on the side of the road, but unfortunately they couldn't understand. Walking to a shopping mall, there are people selling at the door, and the stall owner speaks Hakka. I can understand most of the Hakka, so I bought some fruit at this stall.

I squatted in the corridor next to me while eating and listening, and the stall owner and a few middle-aged people were talking about last night's events.

It seems that a Taoist priest gave a priest to an old man last night, and then the old man's son also committed suicide by jumping off the building. This thing is also quite strange! My mother died, and while doing things, I committed suicide.

And listen to the stall owner's meaning, the old man also jumped off the building to commit suicide, last night was the first seven, generally according to the rules, the family closed the doors and windows at home to sleep, the old lady's soul came back to take a look, before dawn to leave. But her son jumped off the building and died, which sounds like a hair that stands on end in the daytime.

Although I am a Taoist priest, a Taoist priest who has become a monk halfway, I don't know how to read many scriptures. There is also a natural resistance to gods and ghosts. There are many kinds of Taoist priests, and those who give people excess are called Mo Lao, also known as Shi Gong Lao, and the names are different in different places.

The fat man is a serious Taoist priest, he knows everything, and he has seen everything. Although Jiang Ming is also a monk halfway, he has obtained the dream of his master, so he can do anything. And me? I read a few scriptures of the Lingbao School, and when I encountered the chapters of fasting, rituals, and sacrifices, I skimmed them all and skipped them.

Then the few books given by the master were mostly for the study of the Five Thunder Method or other techniques. The Shenxiao faction is a distinctive faction, and in today's terms, it is a practical talent. Catching ghosts and subduing demons is a five-thunder order, and there are not so many twists and turns.

Unlike Maoshan Sect, which catches ghosts and subdues demons, it is really catching and using gourds or tokens to collect ghosts. Or catch the demon and seal it, chant the scriptures day and night to sharpen the temperament, and turn it to your own use.

So when I heard the stall owner talk about the old lady's first seven years back, I was also so scared that my hairs stood on end, and the special code was really infiltrating! And another one died last night, which is quite strange, and it makes my scalp tingle when I hear it. Throwing the fruit peel in his hand into the trash, he quickly got up and entered the mall.

I bought a lot of daily necessities for the master and walked back with my things. When I got to the hotel, I stuffed all my things in the car, and then went back to my room to rest. Passing by the service desk, I stopped when I saw that the waiter looked like he wanted to say something.

"Sir, are you checking out?"

"Why?"

"A few guests had just checked out, and now the whole building is left with you. If you check out, I can take a few days off. ”

"It's summer vacation, and there are a lot of guests, why are you still thinking about taking a vacation?"

"I ......, I don't dare to watch here at night, I'm afraid. So please, go live somewhere else! ”

I stared at the waiter, it was really strange, there is still a saying of rushing guests during the tourist season. I asked her what she was afraid of, and she looked at me in embarrassment.

After holding it for a long time, she finally said, "I saw that thing last night!" ”
