"This is what I bought back for two thousand yuan in the antique shop, I usually don't want to use it, I will give it to you today, you kid must keep it well" Uncle He pointed to the gossip mirror in my hand and said to me generously, this is also Uncle He's generosity, if anyone else is replaced, no one will give me such a good bronze mirror.

"Uncle He, what you gave me, I have always kept it well, you see" After I finished saying this, I took out the copper gourd in my pocket and showed it to Uncle He.

"This copper gourd was passed on to me by my master, it is a good treasure, you have to keep it well, and pass it on to your apprentice in the future" Uncle He pointed to the copper gourd in my hand and instructed me.

"I know Uncle He, by the way, Uncle He, how are you preparing for the New Year," I asked Uncle He casually.

"There's nothing to prepare, I've bought almost everything I should buy, and I'll buy two couplets tomorrow," Uncle He smiled at me as he took a sip of tea.

"This year has passed really fast, I still remember the first time I saw you, you sat at the door of Hongshan Hall and drank tea leisurely, as if it happened yesterday," I said to Uncle He vividly.

"Yes, it was September at that time, and it was quite hot, but it was already February in a blink of an eye, and half a year had passed" Uncle He nodded and said to me.

"Uncle He, I thank you for taking care of me in the past six months, as long as I ask you for something, you will always rush to the front" I said to Uncle He with a grateful face.

"You kid don't cause me more trouble in the future, which is the biggest thank you to me," Uncle He said helplessly as he looked at me.

"Uncle He, I promise to make you as little trouble as possible in the future," I said to Uncle He with a smile.

"I hope so," Uncle He replied to me with a sigh of relief.

I talked to Uncle He until half past four in the afternoon, I returned to the hall, I came to the kitchen on the second floor and began to cook, I plan to show my hand to the master and his old man, as the saying goes, the children of poor families are in charge of the house, I will cook when I am seven years old, at that time my grandmother went to do farm work for a day, and she will come back to cook for me at night, in order to let my grandmother come back at night to eat a hot meal, I ran to the next door neighbor's Aunt Zhang's house every day, let Aunt Zhang teach me to cook, Aunt Zhang is a good person, she not only patiently taught me to cook, When my grandmother ate the first time I cooked, her tears couldn't help but fall into the rice bowl.

"Grandma, how nice it would be if you were alive!" I muttered to myself and started cooking again.

In the evening, I made two dishes, one soup, one was braised chicken nuggets, the other was silver carp head in sauce, and the soup was tomato and egg soup.

"You're a good kid, you can cook," Master said to me with a smile as he sat on the sofa looking at the two dishes and one soup on the tea machine.

"It's just a simple peasant dish, not to mention that the food I went out to buy is expensive, and it's not hygienic, so it's better for us to make it ourselves," I said with a bowl of rice for Master.

"I'll try your craft," said the master, who picked up a piece of braised chicken and put it in his mouth and ate it.

"It's really good, I think it's better than what the restaurant makes," Master nodded at me.

"If it's delicious, you can eat more," I said, and then I used my chopsticks to clip two pieces of chicken for Master and put them in his bowl, and when others praised my rice for being delicious, I felt a sense of accomplishment in my heart. In the evening, Master ate two large bowls of this meal, and the two dishes and one soup on the table were swept away by Master and I.

"I'm so full of food," the Master muttered as he sat in his chair and touched his bulging belly.

"In the future, we won't go out to buy it, I'll make it for you every day," I said to Master with a smile.

"Liu Shou, since you cook so deliciously, then our Chinese New Year's Eve dinner will be handed over to you to make, I was thinking about going to the restaurant to order food for them to deliver, it seems that there is no need" Master looked at me and said.

"There's no problem with this, it's all left to me," I nodded happily to Master.

"I'm in a good mood tonight, I'll teach you how to draw amulets," Master said, beckoning me to the chair across from him.

"Okay Master" I quickly jumped up from the sofa and walked to the chair opposite Master, I had long wanted to learn how to draw talismans from Master.

"When I teach you to draw a fixed body charm, I have to remind you of two points, the first point is that the fixed body charm is only effective for ordinary mortals, and it is ineffective against Taoists like us. The second and most important point is that you can't do bad things with the immobilization charm, and if you dare to do bad things with the immobilization charm, I will not spare you. Master said to me with a serious face.

"Don't worry, Master, I won't use spells to harm people, I promise you," I promised Master with a serious face.

"The fixation charm belongs to a kind of intermediate charm, because this kind of charm is very special, so it has not been recorded in the talisman encyclopedia, and now there are not many people who can draw the fixation charm, when I draw it for a while, you have to remember how to draw the fixing charm and the mantra you read when drawing the fixed talisman" After the master said this, he picked up the brush on the table and dipped it in cinnabar, and drew the talisman on the yellow rune paper, and at the same time he was still reading the drawing spell in his mouth.

"The spirit of heaven and the spirit of the earth, the ancestor of the fixed body is coming. Set your head, fix your waist, fix your legs. The front does not move, the back does not move, the left does not move, the right does not move. Say don't move, don't move, can't lift your hands, can't twist your waist, don't shake your feet into the ground, I respectfully ask the six stars in the south, the seven stars in the Big Dipper, I am in a hurry like the law "When the master finished reciting the incantation, the talisman he drew was also completed.

"It's that simple, it shouldn't be difficult for you," Master said to me, pushing the immobilization charm he had drawn in front of me.

"I'll try" I first grabbed the talisman drawn by the master and looked at it, then I concentrated on lifting the brush and dipping it in cinnabar to draw the talisman on the yellow talisman paper, and when I finished reciting the spell, the talisman in my hand was also completed.

"Master, I've succeeded," I said happily, pointing to the immobilization charm I had drawn.

"Yes, that's good," Master said to me with satisfaction as he looked at the talisman in front of me.

"I ate a little too much today, I'll go out to square dance, and you continue to practice Taoist true qi at home" After the master said these words to me, he walked out leisurely with his hands behind his back, I thought to myself that this master is really leisurely.

After Master left, I picked up the Tao Te Ching on the table again and read it carefully, I felt that I had gained a lot from reading it during the day today, so I opened the Tao Te Ching and started from the second chapter. Later, I don't know how long I watched it, I felt that my eyelids were a little heavy, I closed the "Tao Te Ching" and lay on the sofa and fell asleep, maybe someone didn't sleep all night last night.

Early the next morning, the little aunt came with a big bag of things, and the little aunt made a red Tang costume for me, the master and Uncle He, which was quite festive to wear.

"Liu Shou, you accompany me back home in the afternoon, I want to bring some clothes and cosmetics, I won't leave for a few days during the Chinese New Year, I plan to live with your Uncle He, it's inconvenient for me to run back and forth in the province" The little aunt sat on the sofa and took a sip of tea and said to me.

"Okay, little aunt," I nodded to my little aunt in response.

"Why don't you come to live in a hall, you go to sleep in my bedroom, and Liu Shou and I can just sleep on the sofa," the master looked at the little aunt and said.

"No need for the second senior brother, I have already told the fourth senior brother to go to live with him" The little senior aunt smiled faintly at the master, the master was a little disappointed when he heard the words of the little senior sister, in fact, in the past so many years, the master has never given up on the little aunt, not only can I see it, but she can also see it.

In the afternoon, I accompanied the little aunt to her residence, the little aunt lived in the house divided by Jack's company, the house is not very big, about more than 80 square meters, but the decoration is very luxurious, I helped the little aunt pack up the things, the two of us went downstairs, we were not in a hurry to go to the 88th alley, the little aunt drove me to the mall, and I didn't know what the little aunt was going to buy.
