I looked at the bearded man twice, thinking that he was really a master, and he had already been noticed by her before he even walked in.

When Zhang Di heard Mrs. Zhang's call, he looked back at us proudly, as if to say, "Look, we are not talking nonsense. Then he pushed open the wooden door and motioned for us to follow in.

As soon as he entered, he shouted to a person sitting in the courtyard, "Granny Zhang, I brought two friends here to ask for help." ”

Mrs. Zhang was originally facing away from the door, and when she heard the words, she looked at us.

We also stood at the door and looked at Mrs. Zhang, only to see that this Mrs. Zhang had a childish face, listening to Zhang Di's description along the way, coupled with listening to her voice, I thought she was an old lady who couldn't be older, but she just had gray hair, her face looked very young, there was no wrinkle, she looked like a middle-aged woman, if you didn't look at her white hair like snow without a trace of impurities.

Seeing us looking at her, Mrs. Zhang also glanced at us lightly, and then said: "Sure enough, it is a distinguished guest coming, and your yin and yang physique is rare." ”

If I still had a trace of doubt about her ability before, now there is no one at all, and the people who can see my physique are all open-minded, and my ability is naturally not ordinary, I found a savior, and hurried over to her to ask: "Mother-in-law save me, help me save my husband Chongyong." ”

Lady Zhang listened to my words, obviously a little surprised, she raised her eyebrows, and spoke in her old voice: "You are strange, everyone else is killing ghosts, but you want to save ghosts." Then, she shook her head again: "It's easy to kill ghosts, but it's not easy to save ghosts." ”

With that, she got up from her chair and turned around to go in, when she turned her back to me and waved at me: "You better go, I can't do anything about it, I can't help you, old woman." ”

As soon as I heard her words, tears were about to fall, thinking that she was unwilling to save Chongyong, so I "pounced" and knelt on the ground: "Please mother-in-law save my ghost husband Chongyong, if you can't save him, then no one can help him." "In order to plant forever, kneel down, what is it without dignity, even if it is to pay with my life.

Zhang Di and the bearded man hurriedly came up and pulled me. Zhang Di pleaded with Mrs. Zhang: "Please, mother-in-law, you can help her." Lady Zhang turned to look at us, and then shook her head helplessly, a desolate look appeared in her eyes, but we didn't realize it at this time.

Mrs. Zhang sat down on the small bamboo chair again and said to us: "Sit down first, let me and I talk to you carefully." ”

When we saw that Mrs. Zhang was relieved, we quickly sat down according to her words. After I sat down, I found that there were four cups of tea on the table in front of me, probably made before we came. "I picked up the tea and drank a few sips, the tea is wild tea in the mountains, the taste is very strong, sweet with a hint of bitterness, it should be fried by Mrs. Zhang herself, it seems that she lived a very poor life in the mountains. I thought to myself, it stands to reason that she wouldn't be so poor with such great ability. You can make a fortune with this ability.

While thinking, Mrs. Zhang took out an ancient book from her arms. Mrs. Zhang beckoned to us: "Come and see, what is it?" ”

When I got closer, I saw a very shabby-looking old book with a large coffin painted on the cover, and I remembered the legend that my grandfather told me when I was a child, and blurted out: "Up and down!" At the same time, the bearded man shouted the same as me.

Zhang Di scratched his head in confusion and looked at us blankly: "Why do you all know what this is, why haven't I heard of it." He was coquettish to Mrs. Zhang again, shook Mrs. Zhang's hand and said, "What is this Granny Zhang, you can tell me about it."

It seems that this Zhang Di is indeed very familiar with Mrs. Zhang, and she has known her since she was a child, otherwise such a big man would be coquettish to her, and it would be strange if she didn't kick him out, I thought narrowly.

Mrs. Zhang smiled kindly, this Mrs. Zhang looked like she was only in her 40s, but her demeanor was indeed like an old woman, as if she had seen through the world, and the gods were full of love when she looked at us, I thought silently in my heart.

Granny Zhang stroked the book, not knowing what she was thinking, and slowly spoke for a long time: "This book is called "Upper and Lower Strategies", which is divided into two books. Those who learn to look at life and solve life and death (for everyone who learns Feng Shui). It is recorded in the above policy, do not be fateful, God will abandon it, which means not to try to change the life fortune of others, otherwise you will be abandoned by God.

It is recorded in the next policy that I have a destiny, and those who care about people are not heaven, which means that people's fate is in their own hands and not determined by heaven. You can't learn the two strategies at the same time, otherwise you will be cursed and the whole family will die. ”

I nodded and asked curiously, "Then Granny Zhang, which strategy did you learn?" ”

Mrs. Zhang replied: "I learned the best policy, speaking of my apprenticeship, there is another story, do you want to hear it?" ”

The bearded man hurriedly replied, "Yes, mother-in-law, you can talk quickly." "He was always interested in these things, otherwise he would have pestered me to be his teacher.

Mrs. Zhang looked at the excited beard, smiled, and said to us, "I learned art at the age of 15. Everyone says that the best strategy is useless, and the next strategy is useful. When I was studying, I burned 3 incense sticks and 3 pieces of paper money at the head of my bed before going to bed, for 3 consecutive nights, and on the third day, I > to the place where I couldn't hear the dog barking on the mountain, lit 3 incense sticks and burned 3 pieces of paper money, opened the first page of the book and put it behind my back to sit, and asked 3 times if the master had arrived. At this time, I will hear a "pop" and someone will reply, "Master has arrived". Then the master would teach me to read, and I would read a sentence when he read it. After reading it, he will ask me, "Will the apprentice will?" and he will say "The apprentice will not teach the master again" to the third time he asks "Will the apprentice will", I will say, the apprentice will thank the master, and finally I will listen to the sound of "pop" again, I can go home, and everything in the book will be gone home. ”

The bearded man asked curiously: "That mother-in-law Zhang, who is the master who taught you, have you seen her?" ”

Mrs. Zhang smiled at him mysteriously: "You can't look at the master, because the master looks very scary and will be scared." ”

After finishing her experience and getting back to business, Goddess Zhang told me: "Actually, your ghost husband Chongyong has begun to recover his will, but he is too weak now, and he only has a trace of soul, so he can't come out all the time, so you can wait for a while, and when he slowly gets better, you can imagine it." ”

I was pleasantly surprised: "Really, then when he is well, we can stay together and never be separated?"

Mrs. Zhang shook her head solemnly, and the style of painting changed: "How can it be so simple, you forgot that Chong Yong is just a thousand-year-old soul, sooner or later his soul will be gone, it is useless to wake up, it can't last long, and if he loses consciousness again this time, it means that he is really gone, and there is no way to save it." ”

I listened to Mrs. Zhang's words, my body was weak, and I almost sat on the ground, but fortunately Zhang Di saw it and helped me in time, I thanked him, and then couldn't wait to ask Mrs. Zhang: "Mother-in-law, is there any way to save me, you must say it to help me." ”

Look at my earnest eyes.

Granny Zhang said: "Originally, the secret of heaven cannot be revealed, but you and I are destined, and I can't see death without help, so I will take this risk today and use this book to help you find out the time of your husband's catastrophe." ”

I was grateful, and hurriedly said to Mrs. Zhang: "Thank you mother-in-law for helping." ”

Granny Zhang waved her hand at me and said, "No need, you guys wait here, I'll go in and check the "Upper and Lower Strategies", which will definitely help you take advantage of your husband's solution." With that, she picked up the ancient book and went straight into the house. With a "creak", the wooden door was closed tightly by her. We had to sit here with a nervous face and wait, although we were so anxious that we couldn't do it, but there was nothing we could do.

About a quarter of an hour passed, and with a "creak", the wooden door was pushed open by Mrs. Zhang, and we quickly stood up and looked towards the place where Mrs. Zhang came out.

This look, we were all surprised, between Mrs. Zhang and we just saw the appearance of the look is completely different, her face seems to be old in an instant, her face is loose, it is full of folds, her back is also hunched, the whole person looks like it has shrunk several times, she seems to be a very old and very old woman, so old that people can't see the age.

I went up to help her and asked her, "Granny Zhang, what's wrong with you, how did you become like this?" ”

Granny Zhang shook her head weakly: "It's not in the way, it's just the price of breaking the sky, God lets you know that one thing will inevitably make you lose something, this is destined by numerology, and you can't force it." ”

Listening to Mrs. Zhang's words, I still feel very guilty, if it weren't for me, she wouldn't have grown like this, in order to save Chongyong, I can give my own life, but how can I exchange other people's lives for Yong's life. Mrs. Zhang was silent when she saw me bowing her head. Seems to have guessed my thoughts.

She stretched out her old hand and stroked my back, and said to me kindly: "This is not to blame you, this is my original life, I am more than 100 years old, it is the most normal to become like this, this is what I should be, and I used to borrow my life like God, and now I will go back, you must not blame yourself." ”

Seeing what I was going to say, Mrs. Zhang opened her mouth again: "Don't say it again, we cultivators, it is our duty to save the dead and help the wounded, I have a fate with you, it is destined to save you and your husband, since you have found a way, you must cherish it in the future, live well, punish the evil and promote the good, so as not to disappoint my hard work, you can't do it." ”

I quickly nodded heavily and assured her, "Granny Zhang, I will, I will not disappoint your expectations." ”

Granny Zhang nodded and said to me, "That's good, you come with me, and I'll tell you how to crack it." ”
