Chapter 15: Thou shalt not kneel
The footsteps were soft, accompanied by a tinkling sound.
The sound of ding dong was not hurried or slow, and the sound was in my ears, like the sound of heaven, which made my restless mood just now calm down a lot.
Pushing the door in, it was a Taoist aunt, she was dressed in a green robe, holding a whisk, and she seemed to be about the same age as the goddess Wang. The dingdong sound I heard just now came from a pair of green jade forbidden steps around her waist.
Green jade is invisible, natural and self-contained.
The sound of ding dong, such as big beads and small beads falling on the jade plate, is endless.
I was a little stunned, I had never seen a person with such a temperament, like a green lotus in the river, spotless.
Wang Shenpo said that she is the master of Baiqingguan and the master of Tsing Yi. I don't know if it's my delusion, but I feel that this Tsing Yi Guan is a bit similar to Wang Shenpo.
Of course, I also know that the relationship between Wang Shenpo and Bai Qingguan is very close. However, the problem to be solved now is my grandfather's matter, she invited the Tsing Yi Guan of Bai Qingguan, can she save my grandfather?
I don't understand some of the rules of the Taoist Gate, so when I saw the Lord of Tsing Yi, I had to bow and bow to advance the Taoist Temple, which my grandfather taught me to do. She smiled and walked over, and before I could ask, she asked me first, "Are you very interested in this green jade forbidden step?" ”
Indeed, when she appeared just now, the pair of green jade forbidden steps attracted my attention. In the dark, somehow, I felt an indescribable familiarity with the green jade forbidden step.
So, I didn't deny it and nodded.
"This forbidden step was left by my master back then, you should have seen him." When the Lord of Tsing Yi spoke, her expression changed subtly, and it seemed that at that moment, she fell into a memory.
I was thinking, how could I have met the master of the Tsing Yi Viewer? How is this possible?
However, then Mrs. Wang explained for her, and she said: "Child, when you were a child, you were terminally ill and your life was almost lost, but it was this master of Tsing Yi who saved you. ”
As soon as Mrs. Wang said this, I immediately remembered. When I was a child, there were many disasters, but the most memorable one was when I was eight years old.
Back then, the merchant came to my house to borrow water, and left a note after drinking the water. And only one day later, I was sick, I was very sick at the time, I was unconscious, and later when my grandfather mentioned this, he said that I was sick at that time and had only one breath left, if it wasn't for my grandfather to invite a Taoist priest to give me a bowl of runic water to drink, I would have been out of the world a long time ago.
When I was a child, I was full of longing for this legendary Taoist priest and thought that he was an immortal. But later, after learning some knowledge, I gradually felt that what my grandfather said was illusory, and even thought that what happened back then was made up by my grandfather, not true. But I never thought that today I would actually meet the apprentice of that Taoist priest, that is, the Taoist priest who saved my life exists.
In my consciousness, the Taoist priest is like a fairy. Now that the apprentice of the Taoist priest is here, she is still the master of Bai Qingguan, she must also be very capable, and she will definitely be able to save my grandfather.
Hope, once again, ignited in my heart.
I think this is also the purpose of Mrs. Wang inviting the Lord of Tsing Yi to come, and Mrs. Wang also wants to save my grandfather.
I didn't say a word, I was going to kneel down directly to the Lord of Tsing Yi and beg her to save my grandfather. As long as my grandfather can survive, no matter what the cost, I am willing.
However, before my knees could be bent, the goddess Wang looked frightened, almost rushed over, grabbed me, and said, "Child, don't kneel!" ”
The master of Tsing Yi was also stunned, and at that moment, her face was also tight, and then, she said as if she was joking: "Lin Yi, you can't even kneel to your ancestors, and now if you want to kneel to me, won't you want to torture the poor?" ”
As soon as these words came out, I didn't know what to do, and I looked anxious. Indeed, since I was a child, my grandfather didn't let me go to the grave, let alone kneel and kowtow to the ancestral tablet, I have always wondered why? Now, I knelt down to the Lord of Tsing Yi, and Mrs. Wang immediately stopped me, what kind of secret is hidden here?
"I heard that you just went out of the yin and met the merchant?" The Lord of Tsing Yi suddenly asked this, which surprised me a little.
I nodded, not understanding what she was trying to say.
"Isn't his pick heavy? He also told you that he won't go to your house to borrow water after his business is done today? The Lord of Tsing Yi asked again.
I didn't have time to say these details, even the goddess Wang didn't know, but I didn't expect the Lord of Tsing Yi to already know. I felt even more incredible and asked, "How do you know?" ”
"That's not the point, the point is that the merchant won't be going to your house tonight to ask for his life. If there is no merchant asking for his life, it means that your grandfather's limit of 29 can be unwrittenly extended. When the merchant will appear again and go to your house to ask for his life, then it will be your grandfather's limit. ”
At this point, the lord of Tsing Yi paused, glanced at the Wang Shenpo, and said: "However, according to the poor road, the merchant will not come again for ten days and a half months, you can rest assured for the time being." ”
"In other words, in the past ten days and a half months, we can still find a way to save my grandfather?" I asked, although the statement of the Lord of Tsing Yi did not save my grandfather, but she bought time for my grandfather, which is already very precious.
However, I can't figure out why the merchant waits for ten days and a half to show up?
However, when I was about to continue asking, the master of Tsing Yi said that this matter is related to the secret of Bai Qingguan, and I and Wang Shenpo are both outsiders, so it is inconvenient for her to tell them for the time being.
Actually, I can also guess that this has something to do with the heavy things that the merchant bears.
It's just that what is in the merchant's pick, which makes me more and more curious. Every time I put down the pick, a pool of dirty blood would appear on the ground, which felt very weird.
After that, he sent away the Lord of Tsing Yi.
I was worried about my grandfather's condition and was ready to go home. Originally, I wanted to ask Mrs. Wang to go to my house with me to help me see my grandfather's condition, but as soon as I was halfway through speaking, Mrs. Wang was kicked out again.
"I said, Lin Tianjian's life or death of that dog thing has nothing to do with the old lady, you old Jieling Village, he didn't let me go back then, and now, I will never step into half a step!" The originally kind Wang Shenpo changed her face all of a sudden, and she was completely different from her in a blue and white cheongsam with an elegant temperament.
Of course, then again, she said that she wouldn't help, regardless of my grandfather's life or death, but she actually helped me.
I couldn't help it, I went home by myself.
When I got home, Niu Rhubarb was squatting in front of my house, and in the second half of the night, he was holding a cigarette bag and pot and smoking. When he saw me go back, he immediately greeted me and asked me how the situation was, did Mrs. Wang help? I was frightened by the "Niu Da Huang" who locked me in the courtyard before, and subconsciously took half a step back. However, if I think about it carefully, it was what I experienced when I went to the yin, and it was not true, it was the evil method of the lame horse, so I was not so afraid.
After probably explaining to Niu Da Huang, I went to the house to see how my grandfather was doing. Niu Da Huang said, my grandfather's condition has not changed much, so what the master of Tsing Yi said should be true, and the merchant really didn't come to ask for his life.
After resting for half the night, as soon as it was dawn, I couldn't sit still at home, so I went to Dongwa Village again.
Although the Lord of Tsing Yi bought my grandfather ten days and a half months, my grandfather still didn't wake up, so I still have to find a way.
Mrs. Wang told me that there was no other way.
If you want to save my grandfather, there is only one way to go.
What she was referring to was naturally Ye Weiyang, but I failed to give a dowry gift last time, and I am afraid that I have offended her. At the same time, the pair of vermilion hairpins that Mrs. Wang gave me was also lost, and now I don't have the capital to see her at all.
Wang Shenpo said that the dowry is something outside the body, if she really likes it, even if there is no dowry, presumably she Ye Weiyang will not care, the dowry or something, her Ye family is not lacking.
Having said that, in a hurry, how could she fall in love with me as a poor dick in a poor ravine, and promise each other with her body?
Mrs. Wang thought about it and asked me, how did she leave when she left, did she just turn into green smoke and disappear, or did she look back when she left?
When I said the latter, Mrs. Wang's face showed joy, and she said: "There is a play!" ”
Just when I was talking to Mrs. Wang about this, someone suddenly called for the door outside, and when I heard it, it was the voice of the second fat, so I went out and heard him shouting: "Boss, you are not here, something big has happened in our village!" ”
When I opened the door and came in, I asked him what was wrong, and he was out of breath and said, "Go to the ball, boss!" There were a lot of Taoist priests in our village, and those Taoist priests were very rich and took a lot of gold, saying that they were going to buy the old tomb slope in our village. ”
"What? What are they going to do with gold to buy slopes? "I was surprised.
"I don't know! Now everyone is in the courtyard of our village brigade, Ma Weiguo's dog thing has a special conversation with those Taoist priests, he is not our Lin family, his ancestors are not buried on the mountain, it seems that he is really going to sell the old tomb slope! The second fat said, very anxious.
The Lin family in Laojieling Village accounts for more than half, and there is an unwritten rule that only the Lin family can be buried in the old grave. However, the current Lin family is not united, and the matter of the last cousin-in-law is almost an infighting, which makes the Lin family fall apart. Therefore, when those Taoist priests promised to give pure gold, many people from the Lin family also agreed to move the grave.
Moreover, those Taoist priests also promised to help them do a free ritual when moving the grave, which could appease the spirits of the dead.
When Er Fat finished speaking, Wang Shenpo's brows furrowed slightly, and after a while, she said: "If you really sell the old tomb slope to those Taoist priests, none of the people in the old Jieling Village will survive!" ”
I know that she is not joking, and because of the profession of Mrs. Wang, she will not make such jokes. The reason why she said this must be well-founded. I remember that she said at the beginning that Lao Fenpo hid a big secret, and if I didn't guess wrong, those Taoist priests bought Lao Fenpo for this big secret.
"By the way, boss, those Taoist priests went to our village, and it was Ma Er's grandson who led the way!" Erfat seemed to suddenly think of this and said it.
Ma Er is the grandson of Ma Cripple.
Could it be that the sudden arrival of these Taoist priests was the back hand of his lame horse?
Subsequently, I went back to the village with Erpang, and when I arrived at the entrance of the village, I met my uncle.
