Chapter 493: Collecting Birds (14)
That Lang Gao looked at the place of my finger, his brows furrowed, and he didn't speak, he was silent for about a minute, he looked around, and asked for the name of this tower.
And the man said, This tower is called the Tower of Ten Thousand Things.
It was this sentence that made me wonder in my heart, could it be that there are two towers with the same name in Phoenix?
So, I asked passers-by, and the answer was very disappointing to me, this Phoenix Ancient City has only one tower, called Ten Thousand Towers, and there are no branches. More importantly, this 10,000 pagoda is a symbol of Phoenix City, and it is rumored that every year during the Double Ninth Festival, Gu masters from all over Xiangxi will gather in the 10,000 pagoda to pray.
In desperation, Lang Gao and I circled around the Ten Thousand Towers, but failed to find the house that Su Mengke was referring to. This made me anxious, knowing that she was getting married today, but I couldn't find a place, this feeling was really uncomfortable.
Finding, finding, we were a little tired, so we rested on the stone bench under the tower for a while, and Lang Gao asked me for a cigarette, and said, "Chen Baxian, it's not a matter for us to look for it like this!" ”
I handed him a cigarette, lit it for him, and said, "We don't know this Phoenix well, where else can we go but wander around here?" ”
"Ai!" He sighed and said, "So what now?" ”
I shook my head, said I didn't know, and smoked three cigarettes in a row, but I couldn't figure out anything.
When I thought I was going to return without a return, Na Lang Gao spoke, he looked a little excited, patted me on the shoulder several times, and said, "Chen..., Chen... Eight immortals, who do you think is that? ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the left side of the Ten Thousand Towers.
I was a little depressed, and I didn't pay attention to him, after all, how could we meet acquaintances in Phoenix for the first time?
Seeing that I ignored him, Lang Gao slapped me a few more times and said, "Look at it, that portrait doesn't look like Qingxuanzi Daoist?" ”
As soon as I heard this, I looked at the place where he pointed out, and a few dozen meters away from me, there was a Taoist priest, who was white and pure, dressed in a black robe, with golden lines embroidered on the sides of the black robe, with a black Wuyue crown on his head, and a pair of eyes staring at the Ten Thousand Towers, as if thinking about something. (Wuyue crown: covered bucket shape, engraved directly above, Wuyue true shape map, it is worth mentioning that this kind of hat must be ordained Taoist priests to bring, and to put it bluntly, you must have a degree plate.) )
As soon as I saw the Taoist priest's outfit, I took a closer look at his face, not to mention, from the side of his face, he looked a little like Qing Xuanzi. However, I remember that Qing Xuanzi was only a Taoist priest in the countryside, and he couldn't wear that kind of Wuyue crown.
Thinking of this, I stopped at Lang Gao and said, "Director Lang, you are mistaken, that is not Daoist Qingxuanzi, he... His level is not enough to carry that kind of five-mountain crown. ”
"Impossible, he is definitely the Daoist of Qingxuanzi." He was stunned for a moment, stood up, stretched out his hand and pointed at the Taoist priest, and said: "When I was in Dongxing Town, there were many cases because of funerals, and I have dealt with many cases of that kind, and I am quite familiar with the Taoist chief Qingxuanzi, he is Qingxuanzi." ”
As he spoke, he walked towards the priest.
This time, it didn't frighten me, I remember Lao Wang said, he said, the human nature here in Phoenix City is not good, once you annoy the other party, you will have to pay the price of your life if you don't do it well. There is no way, the Gu here is too terrifying, even if we are local people in Hunan, we are talking about Gu color change, for us, there are many things in this Phoenix City, which are very mysterious, and we dare not touch them easily.
I hurriedly grabbed Na Langgao and said angrily: "Don't die, if you recognize the wrong person, aren't you looking for death?" ”
"Absolutely no mistake!" He was stunned for a moment, and promised again and again.
To be honest, I also think that Taoist priest is Qing Xuanzi, but the Taoist robe and the Wuyue crown on his body are definitely not something that Qing Xuanzi can wear.
At that moment, I said, "Let's pretend to pass in front of him, look at his face first, and remember, don't have physical contact with him." ”
"Good!" He answered, and pulled me towards the priest.
When I came to the Taoist priest's side, I deliberately kept an eye on it and pulled the senior guy to the other side, mainly for fear that he would offend the Taoist priest and cause trouble when he was excited.
The Taoist priest didn't know what was going on, a pair of eyes stared straight at the ten thousand towers, always leaving us with a side face, we walked over a little, he would twist his face to the other side intentionally or unintentionally, which made us not see his full face at all.
The distance between us and the Taoist priest was about thirty centimeters, and I could clearly see the face of the Taoist priest, he was about forty years old, his skin was very white, he did not look like a Taoist who had lived in the countryside for many years, and he had no beard on his chin, this Taoist priest should not be Qingxuanzi, maybe it was just a little similar to the side of his face.
Thinking of this, I pulled Na Lang Gao and walked in the other direction, and said softly: "Is Qingxuanzi Dao Elder so white?" ”
He was stunned for a moment, and sighed: "It seems that he recognized the wrong person, Qingxuanzi Dao Chang is indeed not so white." ”
At the moment, we walked in the other direction with a little disappointment, and glanced back at the Taoist priest from time to time, the two of them really looked alike, could it be Qing Xuanzi's brother? No, I remember my father told me, he said that Qing Xuanzi is the only son in the family and has no brothers.
suppressed the doubts in his heart, and didn't bother with the Taoist priest anymore, after all, there are still people who look similar in this world, for example, Li Yuchun's side face is a bit like Yao Ming.
"Two, please stay!" At this moment, a voice came from behind me, this voice was a little hoarse, a bit like our Hengyang dialect, and a little bit different, very weird sound.
I was slightly stunned, turned around to look, and saw that the Taoist priest was looking at us, and to my surprise, the Taoist priest's appearance was simply like a mold poured out of Qingxuanzi. What the hell, how could there be two people in the world who are so similar, if it weren't for his robe, Wuyue crown, skin and jaw, I have no doubt that this Taoist priest is Qing Xuanzi.
"Daoist Qingxuanzi, why are you here?" Lang Gao shouted excitedly and ran towards the Taoist priest.
I grabbed him, shook my head at him, and whispered, "There are some people we can't afford to mess with." ”
After speaking, I pulled Lang Gao behind me, so that he should not be excited to see an acquaintance, in case he offended this person, the two of us would be entertained here, that Lang Gao seemed to remember something, nodded, followed behind me, and did not speak again.
"Dao Chief, what's the matter?" I asked politely bending down to the priest.
The Taoist priest was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect me to be so polite, and he also bent down at me and said, "Xiao Daoguan Er is impatient, is there something wrong?" ”
