023 Tai Sui
After hearing Master's words, my heart fluctuated. This king is crazy in Jin, and he wants to become an immortal!
It must have been that he deciphered some clues from the painting after getting it, first faking his death to hide from everyone's sight, and then implementing his plan one by one. Not to mention whether there is such a thing as becoming an immortal, does 'becoming an immortal' have to kill someone? What is the message contained in this ancient painting?
Master said, as far as I know, there is another way to become an immortal through tribulations. Taoism has the theory of 'five hells', which are the five prisons of ice, fire pits, heart gouging and tongue pulling, and the return of those who commit great sins. There is a Taoist priest named Huang Shang, who relied on the benefit of his eyes to rob the five prisons, killed five "human spirits" respectively, sent them to hell, and then became immortals. But obviously, Wang Zaijin is different, so I don't know what exactly he deciphered from the ancient paintings.
"You know, Master is a cautious person, and he will never say anything that he is not sure of. The reason why the teacher didn't say it earlier was that he was afraid that you would be reckless and cause death. The second is because of this. Master's tone softened a little.
"I've made it clear, do you still suspect that Master wants to harm you?"
I bit my lip and didn't answer the question, "In that case, why did you hide the origin of your master from me?" What kind of sect and sect are we, the second master and uncle are flickering, and you don't tell me. And also...... Master, I don't know anything about your past, and you haven't mentioned any of this to me. ”
Yang Zhenchuan's face was not natural, and he coughed lightly.
"It's against you! Are you asking your master? ”
Not to mention Youke, as soon as he talked about this, Master was furious and slapped the table swaying.
Master trembled all over, and his gaze was as sharp as a knife.
I have always been obedient to Master's words, and this is the first time I have confronted him like this. In silence, I looked at Master like an invisible confrontation in the midst of saber rattling.
The sky is like a wash, the stars are dotted, and a lonely moon hangs high.
At this time, Yang Zhenchuan did not persuade, but looked at the night sky with hooked eyes and muttered, "I know!" ”
I didn't feel good and said, "What do you know? That's good, Master won't say it, Second Master, you tell me. ”
Yang Zhenchuan said excitedly: "No, I know how to save Dongdong." ”
Knowing that there was a way to save Yang Dong, I was excited, and my attention was unconsciously diverted, "What way?" ”
Yang Zhenchuan pointed to the sky and asked if I saw anything?
I took a closer look, well, the weather was nice tonight, I could see the stars, but nothing out of the ordinary.
Yang Zhenchuan was impatient and pointed to the northwest, and I followed the direction of his finger. Squinted and looked at it for more than ten seconds, it was indeed a little different, only to see a piece of black in a star, although the black area in the sky was very large, but in the starry, a black circle was vacant, like a dark cloud in the stars.
"If you see it, it's Tai Sui Yin Star!"
Yang Zhenchuan said that the ancients called the stars stars, but Tai Sui called them the yin stars. Moreover, the Tai Sui Yin Star is impermanent, and it can only be easily calculated. Moreover, where the Tai Sui Yin Star appears, at the corresponding position on the earth, a piece of Tai Sui will be produced.
In some classics, the ancients even believed that Tai Sui was the elixir of immortality, recorded as 'long food, light body, and longevity immortals'. Therefore, the emperors of all dynasties have tried every possible way to find it, among which Qin Shi Huang sent Xu Fu to lead thousands of boys and girls to find medicine.
Folklore has it that Tai Sui is a murderous thing, but in fact, Tai Sui is not so mysterious, and it is not an elixir, just a medicine, but it has the wonderful effect of reviving the dead. That's because the ancient emperor discovered the secret, and in order to prevent the people from taking it privately, he said that Tai Sui could not be moved, otherwise it would annoy Tai Sui Xingjun and cause disaster. Over time, a proverb was also born, which called Tai Sui's head to break ground, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead.
Regardless of whether I understood or not, I went back to the house and took a compass to look at the stars, and wrote and drew on paper. In the end, Yang Zhenchuan said that two days later, Tai Sui would be born in the southeastern suburbs of Beihai.
I listened to it and laughed at it, I really don't know if Yang Dong's life should not be extinguished or my fortune is great, the northeast of Beihai is Niutou Mountain, we only came back from there the day before yesterday.
Yang Zhenchuan said, "I'll be fair, the most important thing now is to save Dongdong, and put aside the grievances of your master and apprentice for the time being." When Tai Sui is retrieved, if there is any misunderstanding between your master and apprentice, you will make it clear one by one. As the saying goes, a teacher for one day and a father for life, how can two fathers and sons have an overnight feud? ”
I nodded reluctantly, and Master agreed, but there was still a layer of estrangement in my heart.
At present, there are only four of us, and it is not difficult to go to Niutou Mountain to get Tai Sui, but I am afraid that the old blind man will take advantage of the weakness, and Yang Dong is weak, so we have to leave one person to take care of it. After discussion, Master and I went to Niutou Mountain, while Yang Zhenchuan stayed behind to take care of his beloved daughter.
Two days later, Tai Sui will appear in Niutou Mountain, just a general direction, in order to be prepared, we first went to find Niu Taigong to familiarize himself with the local situation.
Because some time ago I helped the people of Niutou Mountain to dismantle the trick of fake warlocks to collect money, Mrs. Niu was polite to us, told us in detail about the terrain around Niutou Mountain, and personally took us to the vicinity for a walk.
At the foot of Niutou Mountain, there are natural villages such as Xiatian, Shangtian, Luolongkeng, and Futiandi, which have been relocated to the lower mountain due to inconvenient transportation and other reasons. These villages are built on the hills, and the old houses with civil and engineering structures are hidden among the ancient bamboo trees.
The houses here are mostly made of cedar columns, wide earth and gravel mixed walls, paved with green bricks fired by earthen kilns, thick and simple, living in it is warm in winter and cool in summer, comfortable and comfortable. Interestingly, there are still slogans written in the sixties and seventies on the walls of these rooms, which are faintly visible over the decades.
It seems that Mrs. Niu is here to play, so he is the friendship of the landlord.
I asked Niu Taigong if there had ever been Tai Sui in the area of Niutou Mountain. It is not the Tai Sui star, but the Tai Sui that can be used as medicine, and the folk call it meat Ganoderma lucidum.
Mrs. Niu pondered for a while and patted his head, "Oh, I've seen it." That was more than thirty years ago, though. ”
When I heard this, I said in my heart that Yang Dong was saved. Niutou Mountain has been Tai Sui, which shows that this matter is still reliable. No, wait a minute, thirty years ago?
Niu Taigong said yes, at that time I was still the captain of the production team, in response to the policy of breaking the remnants of feudalism, demolished a Tai Sui temple at the foot of Niutou Mountain, and dug an ancient tomb there......
I hurriedly asked Mrs. Niu to sit down and tell us about it carefully.
Mrs. Niu is 80 years old this year, and he speaks intermittently, and the preface does not match the afterword, and it took me a lot of effort to organize his words.
It turned out that thirty years ago, someone found a Tai Sui temple in the deep mountains of Niutou Mountain. Niu Taigong was the leader at that time, and took more than 70 people to dismantle it, but after a long time, he pulled down a few bricks. I don't know when this Tai Sui temple was built, not only did it lay a deep foundation, but also added glutinous rice soup and egg whites between the bricks and bricks, and the casting was more solid.
Seeing this situation, Niu Taigong frowned. He was born as a miner, and immediately ordered the people around him to go to the headquarters to get explosives, personally went into battle to bury the explosives, stuffed the detonator, connected the lead, dispersed the crowd, and detonated the detonator.
With a loud boom, sawdust flew and the air was filled with the smell of decay. The entire ancient temple was blown apart. Niu Taigong shouted slogans excitedly, and the crowd responded like a cloud and rushed to the ruins.
After demolishing the ancient temple, the next work is to clean up the site and put the useful ones into production and construction. Niu Taigong commanded people to clear out the complete green bricks for use, and the work was in full swing, when suddenly someone came to report that something strange had been dug up.
Mrs. Niu went with the man, and when he looked at the lively workers separately, he saw a small black hole under a big rock, and after digging it out, everyone couldn't help but be stunned.
Under this ancient temple, there is actually a Taoist temple.
The main hall and its west ear hall, the middle hall, the west side hall, the south room, the Kui floor are all available, and there is a stonemason inscription on the base of the main hall.
The nave is three rooms wide, six rafters deep, the beam frame structure is six rafters leading to the front and rear eaves, the column head bucket is paved with five, the tween bucket is applied obliquely, the garlic clove-shaped stone pillar is used, because of the age, it is full of dust, and it has been eroded by the years.
And on the stone base, there is an old Taoist who has a fairy wind and bones......
