Chapter 369: Heavenly Secrets Must Not Be Revealed
"Okay, Ruoniang, don't be upset about my words, since I dare to leave, I naturally have plans for the future, I know that you are all for my good, worry about me, can I not know this?" Lotus Ye saw that she was unhappy, so she pulled her affectionately and said good things again and again.
"If only you knew!" Lou's face looked a little better now.
"Okay, let's not talk about me, let's talk about yourself." Seeing that she was coaxed, Lotus Ye quickly changed the topic, not wanting to hurt the harmony between the sisters because of this.
"Me? What do I have to say? Lou looked at her puzzled.
"Didn't you just say there was something else? What the hell is going on? I see your eyes are red, you didn't sleep last night, right? Lotus Ye stared at her slightly bloodshot eyes and said.
"It's not a big deal." Lou Shi heard this, but hesitated, not wanting to say much.
"Look at you, you and I are like sisters, your business is with me, how can there be a small matter? What the hell is going on? When Lotus Ye heard this, he urged with some concern.
Lou Shi couldn't help but laugh when he saw her so anxious and worried.
So why has the relationship between their sisters always been so good?
Isn't it because of this sincerity that always takes the other party's business as its own seriously?
"It's really not a big deal, it's just that things haven't been going well recently, and I gossiped with my neighbor yesterday, and the neighbor said, I'm a villain, but I never have a bad relationship with people on weekdays, where will I commit a villain? But the neighbor said that sometimes it was not me who provoked the villain, but the villain who provoked me...... I heard her say something that made sense. Lou said, and brought out her troubles since the New Year.
"You're no small thing! The most taboo thing about the New Year is these seemingly innocuous little things! This pile of things together is going to cause a big thing, I know your temper, and I have always been good friends with people, but what your neighbor said is right! Lotus Ye immediately frowned and commented.
"That's right, this neighbor later said, let me go to an old Taoist, and say that it was the one who predicted before the Chinese New Year that Liao's tailor's shop would be punished by heaven, and he could understand the ...... of the gods" Then, Lou Shi said his dream last night.
"Dreaming of a poisonous flower snake? How could you dream of this? Lotus Ye thought about how scary the snake looked, and she couldn't help but feel creepy.
"Alas, I don't know, it's all kinds of things that don't go well, and I dream of this terrible thing again, and I feel a little uncomfortable in my heart." Lou said helplessly.
"Are you going to go to him today?" Lotus Ye nodded and asked again.
"Yes, I'll go look for him in a moment."
"I'll go with you!" When the lotus leaf heard it, he said.
"Oh, that's not going to work! My neighbor said that it was better not to bring his family with him, so as not to be discouraged......" Lou quickly dissuaded.
"Don't worry, I'll go with you, first, I don't worry about you alone, and second, I also want to go with you to find this old Taoist and ask me about my own affairs, think about it, if you go alone to ask but take me, maybe there is something wrong, but if I also want to find this old Taoist, then it's no problem?" Lotus said.
When Lou heard this, he thought about it for a while, and felt that what she said made sense, so he nodded.
The two cleaned up and went out together.
According to the neighbor, this old Taoist lived on this side of South Street, very close to Lotus Ye's residence.
It didn't take long for the two of them to reach the outside of a remote alley, and walked along the alley until they reached the end, and sure enough, they saw an abandoned courtyard.
"So shabby? Will there be people living there? Lotus Ye couldn't help frowning and muttering, Rao is house in her house is not very good, but seeing the dilapidated environment here, the mottled walls have collapsed in several places, or do you feel that this is too poor?
"Outsiders like them probably don't care about that." Lou smiled, then raised his hand and knocked on the door.
But no one answered.
The two of them looked at each other, and simply pushed open the broken half of the wooden door that could barely be hung, and as soon as they entered, they found that the inside was not what it looked like outside.
At least here, although it is still barren and overgrown, it has been swept out of a path, and the path is clean, and there is not a single barren grass and fallen leaves.
So they walked down the path to the house.
But before they could step on the threshold of the door, an old voice came out of the house: "Two good men, please stay." ”
As soon as Lou and Lotus Ye heard that the old Taoist hadn't seen them, they knew that they were two people, so they couldn't help but glance at each other, and then raised their eyes to look into the room carefully, but found that there was no figure snooping on them in front of them.
"Dare to ask two good people, come to find the poor road, but what do you have to ask? If in doubt, it doesn't hurt to say. The old voice inside didn't wait for them to respond, and then spoke slowly.
His voice is loud, and although he doesn't see anyone, he gives people a sense of trust.
Lou Shi and Lotus Ye glanced at each other again, and then said: "I heard from my neighbor that you have the ability to do everything, so I came here and wanted to ask you to watch the incense for me, and see if I have committed a villain in my life recently, and how to crack it." ”
"What about the other good man?" The old Taoist asked again.
"I ...... I've also encountered some things recently, and I would like to ask the Taoist chief to show me the way. Lotus leaves don't talk about their own business.
There was silence in the room for a while.
Soon, however, a breeze blew, and the old Taoist said again, "Please come in." ”
When Lou and Lotus Ye heard this, they cautiously stepped into the house.
Even though it was daylight, the room was still dimly lit.
The two of them stood there, and saw an old man with silver hair and white beard sitting on a futon inside, the old man was wearing a half-worn Taoist robe, his posture was straight, his eyes were gentle and a little sharp, and at first glance he was the master who waited for the Tao, which was very unusual.
"I'll ask the good man on the left to see the incense first." The old Taoist looked at Lou Shi and said.
"Thank you, Chief." When Lou Shi heard this, he was busy thanking him, thinking of his neighbor's instructions, he quickly took out a string of copper coins that he had prepared, and stared at the old Taoist with his eyes.
I saw the old Taoist get up and take out a bundle of incense, and set fire to the incense table where the candle was lit in front of him.
Then, he read the words in his mouth, and said a very sharp password, and then asked Lou's name and where his family lived, and after getting the answer, he read a series of passwords, and then brushed them, and inserted the incense into the incense burner.
Seeing this, Lou Shi hurriedly put the prepared string of copper coins next to the incense burner, and said respectfully: "Dao Chief, this is the incense money for you......
The old Taoist did not reply anything, but after a slight pause, he began to observe the incense, and asked Lou some questions according to the trend of incense burning.
The questions he asked were extremely ordinary, for example, how many children Lou had and asked if Lou had encountered a disaster when he was young...... Lou was extremely surprised that the other party could ask questions, and answered them one by one in surprise.
Then, the old Taoist frowned suddenly, and said, "Poor Dao knows where your predicament is. ”
"Dao Chief, what do you mean by that?" Lou's heart tightened, and he hurriedly asked.
"You are a villain, but the secret of heaven cannot be revealed, there are some things I can't say, I can only point you to how to crack it." The old Taoist stared at the incense with a frown and said.
