Ever since Master Shang entrusted me to find this strange person, I often asked Master Shang why he was looking for this person, and Master Shang never told me. I only know that Master Shang has been looking for this person since he was found in seventy years and now in ninety-nine years, and he has not found it.

Once, I watched Master Shang tell fortunes by the fortune-telling booth he set up. The person looking for Master Shang was an old lady in her seventies and eighties, wearing the kind of blue clothes commonly known as "blue ants" that people in the sixties and seventies loved to wear.

Her face is full of wrinkles, and her snow-white silver hair is sad to look at.

Hearing the old lady say that her son was in his forties and suddenly went crazy, the doctor said that it was schizophrenia, but she thought it was a ghost, so she looked for a mage everywhere in the hope of curing her son.

For the sake of tranquility, Master Shang and the old lady walked into a secluded alley, and I naturally followed.

I saw Master Shang take out a bowl, pour some water from the mineral water bottle in the bowl, take out a pre-drawn spell and chant words in his mouth, I have never seen Master Shang make a charm, and look at Master Shang quietly at the moment.

After reciting the spell for about a minute, Master Shang took out a lighter and lit the charm and put it in the water bowl. The spell floated on the surface of the water and burned clean.

This completely shattered what little physical view I had. He was looking at Master Shang curiously. But seeing that Master Shang's expression was becoming more and more solemn, he solemnly asked the old lady, "Does your son sleep during the day and get up at night?"

The old lady nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, yes."

Master Shang asked again, "Has your son killed snakes and weasels before?" ”

The old lady kept nodding, "Yes, yes, he killed a white snake when demolishing the old house"

Master Shang listened to Zhengse's words, "I can't do this, your son is indeed not mentally ill, he just killed the snake spirit, and was possessed by the snake spirit's soul to seek revenge on him." ”

The old lady's tears flowed out at once, her whole eyes were full of tears, and her old face was full of sadness, a little joyful, and a little confused and anxious.

The old lady was originally sitting on a small stool, and after listening to Master Shang's words, she knelt down directly for Master Shang, "Master help, master help,,,,"

The old lady's tears poured out at once, and she was about to kowtow, but Master Shang hurriedly stopped the old lady and helped her up again.

Master Shang looked at the old lady and said, "My master only taught me to cure ghosts, and my cultivation of this kind of spirit upper body that has been cultivated for a long time is not enough, I will take you to see my master, whether he can save you depends on fate, alas"

Master Shang still has a master, I'm very curious, Master Shang is in his sixties and almost seventy, and there is a master, his master is still there, I must see it, but why can't I save it depends on fate, isn't saving a life better than building a seven-story pagoda?

I begged Master Shang if he could take me with him, and wanted to meet his master.

Master Shang looked at me and agreed.

Master Shang said that his master's surname was Mao and he was seventy-eight years old this year. Tell me to watch from the side, don't talk or move.

I must have said yes to this, so I followed Master Shang through the alley.

After walking for more than ten minutes, we finally stopped at the gate of a large compound, and it was not until Master Shang opened the courtyard that I understood what Master Shang said about whether to save or not depends on fate.

There was a wooden wheelchair in the courtyard, and on it sat an old man with a white beard with a somewhat haggard face, wearing a black cotton placket. A silver beard makes people feel that this old man is fairy-like, and then look at his eyes, although haggard, his eyes are like electricity, and there is a silver-white long eyebrow on his eyes.

I was a little alarmed to see the way we came in and looked at us, for he looked like a statue of King Kong in a temple, making people shudder and not angry.

This is Master Shang's master, Master Mao.

Master Shang introduced the old lady and me to his master, and Master Mao looked at me and kept looking at me. I never look away when a man looks at me, but Master Mao keeps looking at me, but I don't dare to look at him, I turn my head around and pretend to look at the scenery of the yard.

Master Shang told Master Mao about the old lady's situation, but Master Mao was very happy, Master Mao asked the old lady a few more words, looked at me again, and beckoned to me.

I walked towards Master Mao, somehow I was very afraid of this white-bearded old man, a little apprehensive, and walked carefully to Master Mao's side, Master Mao looked at me, and asked me kindly, "Young man, can you help push me?"

"Okay", it turned out to be to help push the cart, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Master Shang went to the back room and carried a large black wooden box on his back, this wooden box looked like it was some years old, and Master Shang, who was in his sixties, carried a large wooden box, which made me a little worried.

So I volunteered to stand up and say to Master Shang, "Master Shang, let me carry it."

Unexpectedly, Master Shang laughed, put down the big wooden box, and said to me, "Xiaoshuai, you can try it"

Master Shang's sudden change of calling me Xiaoshuai made me a little uncomfortable, usually Master Shang called me Xiao Li, and my elders and classmates called me Xiao Shuai. It's okay, it's a bit kind. I strode to the wooden box and went to pick up the wooden box, but the wooden box did not move at all.

Strangely, my forehead was a little sweaty, and my hands were lifted up with my waist, and I lifted one end of the wooden box, but the other end was still on the ground, which was simply ,,, too heavy.

I'm afraid it's more than 200 pounds, right? I was at a loss only to put down the wooden box.

Master Mao's voice came from behind him, "Young man, you come to push the cart for me"

When I turned around, I suddenly felt that Master Mao didn't make me feel too scared, and a large circle of white beard and wrinkles on my forehead made people feel very kind. But I still didn't dare to look him in the eyes, his eyes seemed to be shining outward, and the white eyebrows that were connected together were so stern in his eyes.

embarrassedly walked behind Master Mao and held the two handles of the wooden wheelchair. Master Mao said to Master Shang, "Shang Yun, let's go"

Master Shang went to the house, and then I saw a little old yellow cloth curtain hanging at the door of the house in the courtyard, and a huge charm was drawn on the door. This is to hang a huge charm in the doorway, strange that I only saw such a conspicuous yellow curtain at this time?

Master Shang opened the door curtain, I looked inside curiously, it was dark and I couldn't see anything, and then I saw that the window was closed, and there was a thick curtain inside. It's all so perverse.

I looked into the darkness behind the curtain, and there was a faint sense of invigoration in the darkness, as if it was beckoning me in, and I took a step forward with my feet.

With a "bang" sound of the door closing, the door of Master Shang's bar closed, and the wooden box on his back said to me, "Let's go." ”

As soon as the door closed, the feeling disappeared, and I pushed Master Mao out of the courtyard.

The old lady led the way to the monk master in front, and the old lady was happy and anxious, hunched over and walked fast with a pair of small feet, and after a while they walked in front.

I'm excited to collect demons. But pushing this wooden wheelchair, I didn't dare to push it faster, for fear of turning Master Mao underground, and the road in the alley was very bumpy. It was all cement that the residents applied to the outside themselves, and over time many places cracked, potholes, and many rat holes. I pushed more carefully.

There was a long downhill slope in front of me, and the slope was a bit big, so I turned the car upside down, and I was getting down, and the car was on top, and I slowly lowered it step by step.

Accidentally, I stepped on a pit, my foot slipped, I fell to the side, the wooden wheelchair block with a huge sound quickly slid downhill, I was shocked, my heart was about to jump out, watching Master Mao and the wheelchair slide down.

Yes. I suddenly reacted very quickly, screaming and rushing down the slope in three steps and two steps, with great horror in my heart.

The huge inertia took me down the slope, but Master Mao on the pulley in front of me had no scared expression at all.

I rushed to the side of the pulley, and Master Mao, who was sitting in the pulley, stretched out his right hand to me, and I grabbed Master Mao's hand with my right hand.

Suddenly, a tremendous force came from my arm, and I was pulled to the ground and fell down.

The silver-haired Master Mao stood firmly on the ground, and with this pull, Master Mao stood firmly on the ground from sitting in a wheelchair.

Another huge force came, and my posture of planting forward changed to planting down, this huge force came from Master Mao's hand, and I was like pulling a big stone, and I only pulled Master Mao two steps forward.

A ten-year-old man can have such strength, which made me very surprised in an instant, but I still didn't dare to stand firm with the strength of Master Mao's hand, and in a panic, my left hand stretched out on the ground and knelt on the ground.

Dozens of moods are mixed together. At present, I am most worried about Master Mao and Master Monk blaming me for not being able to push a cart well when a big man pushes a cart.

I secretly wondered in my heart, isn't Master Mao disabled in both legs? , obviously in a wheelchair is now stable

Stand firm on the ground.

Looking up, Master Mao didn't blame me, but it made me feel more uncomfortable, if Master Mao reprimanded me, I might feel better.

Master Shang had already pushed the wooden wheelchair up below, and Master Mao slowly sat on it and said to me, "Your name is Xiaoshuai, or you will push it."

This time I was more careful, slowly lowered the block to the gentle ground, and then turned around and carefully pushed the block behind Master Shang.

Master Mao, who was sitting in the front, didn't blame me at all, and said to me, "My leg is not paralyzed, but the cold invades my body and I can't stand for too long, so my big apprentice made me this wheelchair for me to sit on." ”

"Big apprentice?" I couldn't hear the sound of the pulley rolling clearly, so I lowered my head and listened to Master Mao say,

"Well, I also have a little apprentice, and the little apprentice is a monk."

"Ah, monk" thought to himself, what did the monk learn from Master Mao.

I was feeling strange, and Master Mao said, "You also think it's strange, I also thought it strange at the beginning, a monk learned Taoism from me." ”

"Master Mao, are you Taoist?"

"Of course, all spells are Taoist, otherwise how can they be called Taoism?"

"In the past few decades, I have been studying the common techniques between Taoism and Buddhism, and I saw that this little monk learned Buddhism well before accepting him, I taught him Taoism, and also learned Buddhism from him."

Turning a corner, Snow White, Snow came from the opposite side.

His heart began to beat faster again, and he lowered his head and pushed the pulley to speed up.

When I got closer, I looked up and saw that it was not snow, so I was relieved.

Master Mao asked in front, "Xiaoshuai, are you troubled?"

Could it be that Master Mao misunderstood that I was **? and quickly explained, "I thought I had met a classmate just now."

"If you have troubles, you can't avoid them, but you have to challenge your troubles and overcome your troubles, so that you will have no troubles."

Master Mao seems to be telling me something with Buddhism,

"Master Mao, isn't it just to avoid troubles and turn disasters into blessings?"

"If you hide from your troubles, your troubles will be gone. Chinese Buddhism tells you to hide from your troubles, but your troubles are still there. Tibetan Buddhism tells you to face your troubles directly, to challenge your problems, and to challenge whatever habits you have."

It seems that there are too few things in the books I read, and I heard Master Mao say that I understand a little, but I am still a little unconvinced, and I asked, "After the challenge, there will be no more troubles, and there may be more troubles?"

"That only means that you didn't give your best when you challenged and cringed. If you challenge for seven points, it will extinguish seven points, and if you challenge ten points, it will extinguish ten points. ”

Along the way, I reminisced about Master Mao's teachings, and Master Mao now seems to me not only a majestic Taoist, but also a monk with great wisdom.
