My mother was still worried when I was holding me, as soon as I heard the old man's words, her face sank at that time, she thought that I should find a university to study when I grow up, find a better job after graduation, and say a virtuous wife, I never thought of becoming a Taoist priest in the past, after all, our Li family got married and had children, and the inheritance had to rely on me.

And in that era, Taoist priests, Mr. Yin and Yang, fairy women, gods, and so on were all lowly professions that were looked down upon, and people looked down on this kind of people in addition to some awe in their hearts, and most of them looked down upon, and always felt that these people often dealt with demons and monsters and dead people, which was an extremely unlucky profession.

Moreover, often these people do not live long, and even do not die well when they are old, because they have been dealing with ghosts and dead people all their lives, and their bodies are often contaminated with death and resentment.

This is all light, serious point of feeling that he is profound, no one in his eyes, self-esteem is very high, a posture of Lao Tzu the first in the world, for a few money, I don't know whether to go out to help the bitter lord subdue demons, I didn't think that I finally ran into hard stubble, and was cleaned up by the other party in a few clicks, and finally ended up with a miserable end of untimely death.

Like my mother, my dad was also silent, obviously the old man's request was a bit excessive, if it wasn't for saving me, maybe he would give the old man a big ear scraper, I Li Guohua finally gave birth to a son, a handful of and urine, hard work, you will go with you to learn the Tao?

The old man saw that my parents were silent, so he smiled and said: "Alas, the two, I really don't hide from each other, this child was born with a psychic physique, and he should be a Taoist priest when he was born.

After speaking, he tilted his head, his eyes were aimed at the roof of my house, and he didn't know what he was looking at, and he put on a sad face, sighing from time to time, as if if I didn't become a Taoist priest, I might be about to hang up at any time.

"Master Jiang, is there no other way, Shuangxi has to be a Taoist priest? My Li Guohua is just this one son, if Shuangxi becomes a Taoist priest, the incense of my Li family will be cut off from me, how can I have the face to see the ancestors and ancestors. "When my dad heard what the old man said so seriously, he suddenly lost his bearings, and he was so anxious that his forehead was sweating.

The old man took a puff of cigarette, shook his head and said that there is no other way, a person born with a psychic physique was a cultivator in his previous life, and for some reason or to accept the task of going down to the mortal experience, he is destined to be a Taoist priest in this life, only in this way can he avoid being riddled with illness and harassment by a hundred ghosts.

When my mother heard this, she hugged me and cried, shouting that her life was so bitter, wow, she finally gave birth to a son and had to go home to be a Taoist priest, what kind of abuse did I do in my last life.

The old man looked at my parents' face with a look of defeat, as if he had a little conscience, he couldn't bear it, his voice changed, and he said with a pleasant face: "What are you crying about, I haven't finished talking yet, you two don't have to worry about the problem of inheritance, I am the only one left in the sect to which I belong, and there is no provision that Taoist priests cannot get married and have children.

After listening to the old man's words, my parents' faces looked better, although they were still a little reluctant in their hearts, but seeing that I was unconscious, in order to save me, they hesitated for a while, and had to reluctantly agree to the old man's request.

When the old man saw that my parents agreed, he immediately laughed, but the voice laughed sinisterly, treacherously, like an old fox who had succeeded in his plot.

"Tell me, what is the child's name, and what are the eight characters? I'll do the math on how far this kid has run. The old man took a puff on his cigarette and asked my parents nonchalantly.

When my mother heard this, she hurriedly said my name and birth date word for word.

"Li Shuangxi, it's a good name, it's festive when you hear it, you two are quite good at naming it." The old man complimented my parents, stretched out his fingers, and pinched them.

After a while, the old man put down his hand and said to himself: "Regardless of Huang Laoer, this guy doesn't dare to go, the place where the soul of the double happiness boy goes is really far enough, in the current situation, the conjuring will definitely not work, for today's plan, only the old man will go and pick him up in person." ”

The old man raised his eyebrows, and after thinking about it, he told my parents to hurry up and find a series of items such as colored paper, scissors, paste, brushes, bamboo, and sandalwood.

As soon as he gave the order, my parents dared to be lazy, and quickly got busy, racing against time to turn over these things, because they were in a hurry, and when they came back, my mother almost fell, which shows that they are eager to save me.

When they had gathered all the belongings, the old man ordered my father to cut the bamboo with a knife and make them one by one.

The old man here picked up the colored paper, and used scissors to cut the paper quickly, don't look at the old man's rough hands, the craftsmanship of paper-cutting is amazing, in my mother's words, the ingenuity is almost to catch up with the girl's house.

After a while, he cut out a pile of colorful pieces of paper, and then he used my father's bamboo strips to tie them into the shape of a small figure, and pasted the cut paper on it.

He flipped his hands up and down, fiddling left and right, and after a while, four living little paper figures were formed by him.

I saw that these four paper figures were more than five feet tall, wearing black coats and white scarves, and they looked like they had clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, vivid, but the strange thing was that the four paper figures only had eye sockets, no black eyes, and looked coldly, it was inevitable that they would lose a little aura.

After the paper figure was pasted, he used the remaining bamboo strips to weave a sedan chair frame, and after pasting it with colored paper, a colorful sedan chair was about to be completed.

My dad couldn't help but feel a little strange when he saw that the old man had been tinkering with it for most of the day, and he only made these things, so he asked, "Master Jiang, what are you doing with these paper figures and sedan chairs?" ”

"Of course, the old man used it himself, I'm so old, my legs and feet are not good, and I don't tie a sedan chair, is it possible that you want me to run to pick up the double happiness boy." The old man gave my dad an angry look and said.

My dad was stunned when he heard this, you must know that this paper man and paper sedan chair are burned for the dead, and the old man actually said that he used it himself, which made my dad not surprised.

Surprise is surprise, but since the old man said to use these things to save me, my father didn't bother to ask the old man again, but helped him to make it up.

After making the paper man paper sedan chair, the old man picked up the brush in a hurry, dipped in a little ink, and pointed to the eyes of the four paper people in turn.

At this point, some people may ask, why didn't the old man draw his eyes when he tied the paper? But only now?

In this way, it is said that it is not possible to draw the eyes immediately after the paper figure is tied, but if you give it an eye, it will come back to life.

Just like the legend of the finishing touch, during the Liang Dynasty in China, there was a very famous painter named Zhang Sengqiu, whose painting skills were superb.

Legend has it that one year, Zhang Seng Miao painted a golden dragon on the temple wall, and these dragons were painted lifelike, vivid, just like real dragons.
