The old man's words made me very ashamed, and I thought that I was actually dragging him down.

I remember the year when the old man took me to Wuxiang Village, someone asked him to go to H City to be a feng shui master. But at that time, I had already settled down and went to school in Qinyan City.

In order not to affect my university entrance examination, the old man resolutely declined the invitation. In this small mountain village, the villagers are not very rich and do not earn much.

Five years is nothing to me, I am still young, but for the old man, it is a time that can never be recovered.

So when I heard him say that, I couldn't help but cry. It's nothing, it's just that I feel sorry for the old man.

The old man may also be sad in his heart, but he didn't say anything later, saying that he was not very comfortable and wanted to go to sleep. I, as for it, sat on the couch in a daze.

This kid is also sensible, and cooks for us as if he were in his own home. I don't want to go, this is my own home, how can I let it be empty.

I packed up my emotions and went to help him. I'm worried that he will cook all the vegetarian food, and he will say that I will come, he is not good at making meat.

Who knows that Ichikong said that he was not a real monk in the first place, and he practiced shaving, that was also a lay disciple, not a real monk. So, his master didn't ask him not to eat meat.

Of course, he was a vegetarian when he was in the temple, but Yikong said that he was also greedy, so every time he went down the mountain to make a fate, he secretly ate meat.

This can be regarded as confirmed by me, and I said that he is indeed a fake monk. Ichikong explained to me that this is called wine and meat through the intestines, and the Buddha sat in his heart. I smiled and said, I'm afraid there are still beautiful women in their arms, and the Buddha doesn't serve them, right?

Ikku, knowing who I was talking about, blushed and said no.

He does it, I don't fight with him, he doesn't admit that he likes Huan'er, and I don't bother to care.

I remembered that he and Bukong were brothers, and I never asked him carefully. Why is he called empty, and the senior brother is not empty?

Yikong told me that in fact, this was the case, Bukong worshipped the master in front of him, but the master said that his six roots were not pure, and he refused to let him be a real monk, and he also became a lay disciple. It is because his six roots are impure that he has such a Dharma name.

But after shaving, Bukong's performance is very good, he doesn't stick to meat, he doesn't drink, and he has never violated the temple rules, and every time he goes down the mountain, he can complete the task well.

Therefore, for a while, his master looked at him differently. I think he would be a useful person if he could keep it up. Therefore, his master also taught a lot of things to Bukong.

Later, when Yikong entered the school, the master said that he was also impure with six roots, but there was one thing that was very good, that is, he was obedient, did not fight, and did not fight for anything.

The master said that he had done this, so he named it empty.

Hearing this, I couldn't be happy, it turned out that the two of them were not pure, and they were not the material to be monks, so they were named like this. According to Buddhism, the five aggregates are empty before they can be regarded as having cultivation.

It's a little bit of a thing, but his master is really prescient and knows that these two apprentices are not good materials. Otherwise, why do other people take the Dharma name well when they apprentice, and they just take such a name?

Ichiku said that he also understood that his six roots were impure and had been working hard.

He said that in fact, Bukong was very good to him at first, but once, after Bukong came back from the mountain, he had scars on his body, and he didn't know why, so he suddenly changed his attitude towards him.

From the beginning of the care to indifference, not empty often in the yard in a daze. Ichiku said that his master had said that there were many unclean obstacles in the non-hollow mind, which hindered his cultivation.

At that time, Isaku didn't understand anything, thinking that what his master meant was that Bukong was possessed by something or something. Until his master calculated that the world was about to suffer a catastrophe.

Handed over the Eight Net Money and the Demon Suppression Pestle to him, he went down the mountain and was attacked by Bukong. Only then did he suddenly realize that the so-called demon barrier actually refers to the demon in the heart.

After listening to Ichikong, my curiosity about not empty became even heavier. I feel that he is a person with a lot of stories, and he hides too many secrets, and these secrets have something to do with me.

Otherwise, I can't figure out why he let me go one after another, and in the cemetery village, his behavior is also very puzzling, and it feels as if this person is deliberately helping me.

I asked Yikong if he knew his life experience, and Yikong shook his head and said that he didn't know, Yikong himself died when he was a child, and it is said that he was also adopted by an orphanage, and later met his master, and was taken away by his master.

Bukong was four years older than him, and Ichiku was ten years old when he arrived at the monastery, so it can be said that the two of them have been together for many years. Moreover, I was clumsy before, and I was really seventeen years old, and if I was not empty, I was twenty-one, one year older than me.

I even thought that Bukong was actually not an adult, uh, far away, in short, Ikong spent a lot of time with him, but Bukong never told him what his life experience was, and even the common name of Bukong was told to him.

Ichikong was also curious and asked the master, but the master never told him.

Anyway, this is a mysterious death, I don't know anything about him, but he seems to know about me.

I don't know if it's the Eternal Life Cult staring at me, or if it really has something to do with me.

As we talked, and the meal was ready, I went to get the old man up to eat, but he was not sleeping, but sorting out his books, two of which I was never allowed to touch.

One is the secret technique of Maoshan Mountain, and the other is the secret technique of Lingbao. The old man gave me both books and went out to dinner with me.

During the meal, out of curiosity, I asked the old man why he gave it to me, I couldn't learn Taoism. The old man said that this is not the case, saying that I have a lot of wisdom, but I am afraid that the ghost king will wake up, so I will not be allowed to cultivate.

Give me these two books, so that I can first familiarize myself with the ghost and evil, and know how to deal with the ghost and evil, since there is a way to get rid of the ghost king, let me come to practice after getting rid of the ghost king.

The old man said that he couldn't practice these now, these two books were the source of his life's learning, he had learned all his life, and in the end he only learned a little bit of the skin. I hope I can do a good job of enlightenment.

Rub, the old man cared so much about me at first, and now he passed on his treasure to me, which really touched me.

So, we chatted while eating, and soon became acquainted with the old man.

While I was happy, I actually had a lot of questions, and I wanted to ask the old man, for example, why he was a Zhengyi sect, why there was a secret technique of Maoshan.

The old man had actually told me a lot about the Orthodoxy. Zhengyijiao originated in the late Han Dynasty, and its predecessor was Tianshi Dao, that is, Taoism created by Zhang Tianshi.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, due to certain internal contradictions, it evolved into the later Wudou Rice Road. The origins are quite deep, so I won't explain them one by one.

The old man saw that I was interested, so he told me that when the Zhengyi Sect was officially formed, it was divided into Maoshan, Lingbao, Qinghui, Jingming and other factions.

However, these are not immutable, and today, the Zhengyi Sect is actually very weak, and on the contrary, it is the Maoshan branch that has risen. But the old man said that the Maoshan of the Zhengyi Sect is different from the real Maoshan faction.

The real Maoshan faction was actually the Shangqing faction, which was later divided into northern and southern factions, with North Maoshan being the founding and South Maoshan being founded in Guangdong.

But the old man said that although it is not the same, there are also some unclear and unclear origins. He gave me the secret technique of the Zhengyi Sect to assign Maoshan.

But the old man's real treasure is the Lingbao secret technique, and the old man is assigned by the Lingbao branch. He told me that when he was young, he relied on his skillful Five Thunder Palm Technique to achieve the position of sacrificial wine from a ghost pawn.

Those who have a certain level of cultivation, are appreciated, and have a certain ability to manage other believers, are called listeners.

When the ability is sufficient, he will be promoted to manage many believers, and be responsible for some sacrificial ceremonies in the church, as well as the supervision of the righteous house. It is called sacrificial wine.

Further up, that's the elders.

The old man was quite proud when he talked about the past, and he also told me that when he was living in seclusion in Wuxiang Village, a respected elder came to ask him to be the new elder, but the old man refused.

I asked the old man why he refused, isn't it very majestic to become an elder? When the time comes, he will pick me up, and I will be blessed with it.

Who knew that the old man sneered at me and told me that the blessing was not so enjoyable, that there were three great elders in the Zhengyi Sect, and the remaining seven were just ordinary elders.

And the three great elders were not in harmony, so the internal struggles continued, and he was also tired of these, so he chose to retire.

The old man told me that the Lingbao Secret Technique contains the Divine Spirit Method, which can save my life when I kill the ghost king with the Vajra Demon Pestle that Ichikong said, so that I can consider it carefully. There is also a black tie method that can increase the power of the Halloween whip.

I asked him what the black zafa was for, and the old man told me that it was mainly to strengthen my arm ability, so it was very helpful for using the Halloween whip.

I'm so happy, it's like a treasure. The old man immediately said to me, let me never cultivate casually by myself, now I just need to be familiar with it.

Of course, I don't want to die so early, the old man showed me some ordinary Taoist techniques, exorcism methods and the like. Now that I'm finally willing to give me the real thing, I'm almost excited.

Yikong, who had been listening from the sidelines, suddenly had a question, saying that when he went to Huayuan before, he met people from the Zhengyi Sect, and those people chatted with him for a while.

I asked him what he had said, and he said that these people complained that the Zhengyi Sect was too cowardly, and that they were all appeased and expelled from all kinds of demons. When they encounter powerful ghosts, they can only run.

I also wonder about this, because the old man told me that the Zhengyi Sect is very powerful, and it has always been his mission to exorcise demons and subdue demons.

After hearing this, the old man slapped the table, and before we could ask, he couldn't help it. The old man said, "What kind of serious disciples are they?"

It's just that some people who don't know how to calculate it, and when it comes to them, it can't be regarded as exorcism and demon subjugation, what they can do is to mix in the countryside and help others recite scriptures to overtake the dead souls or something. Of course, I didn't dare to exorcise ghosts, so I could only focus on appeasement, supplemented by expulsion.

The old man also said that there are indeed many such industries now. I also think that sometimes they may not know what they are reading.

The meal was a great drink, and we had a good conversation. Taking advantage of our happiness, Yikong said that in fact, their Buddhism also has some spells for exorcism and demon subjugation, but he didn't learn much.

He said that his master had a senior brother, and he was very good at this. And in his early years, he taught an apprentice, who was also quite powerful, but unfortunately died later.

After eating, the old man and Ichiku sat on the sofa and chatted, while I drank a little more, thinking of coming out to blow the cool breeze.

I moved a chair and sat in the courtyard, and at this time, I saw an acquaintance, who was it? Song Qi. That is, the only son of the old man Song.

This kid didn't know where to find a girlfriend, and the two of them walked through the door of my yard very sweetly with their arms hooked, but they didn't see me.

"Ahem." I faked a cough twice to get his attention.

Song Qi turned around, saw me, and immediately laughed: "Leng Feng, when did you come back?" Don't tell me a word. ”

"I just came back today, okay, your girlfriend is very beautiful." I said from the bottom of my heart that his girlfriend was very beautiful.

He is tall and thin, but his body is extremely shapely. Big eyes, red mouth. It seems a little shy to see me.

Song Qi led her over and said to me: "Her name is Gu Xiaobei, and I met her in the cinema. ”

Then he introduced me to her: "He is Leng Feng, my good friend, good buddy." ”

"Did you know from the cinema?" I was curious and asked, "Which movie theater?" The one at the head of our village? ”

"No, it's from Qinyan City, not far from the train station." Song Qi said to me proudly, "How is it?" Pretty, right? ”

I nodded, and began to look at the girl closely. Because of Song Qi's words, she was even more embarrassed, and lowered her head and said what Song Qi was talking nonsense.

"She's just shy with the living, and when she's familiar with you, it's fine." Song Qi explained to me. "Dude, how's it going? Staying at home for a while, right? ”

"yes." I nodded to him, "I'm going to stay for a few days." ”

"That's right, let's go to the movies together tomorrow." Song Qi said, and handed me a movie ticket.

I'm not good at answering, you said that the young couple went to the movies and had fun, and I followed, isn't that a huge light bulb? "Go ahead, I won't go."

"Dude, we've seen it a few times. It's almost becoming a daily thing, and it's boring. I bought a few more tickets today, and I originally wanted to call a few good friends to go with me. Song Qi said, and pulled out several movie tickets from Gu Xiaobei's bag.

"Okay, it's okay to go, but have you chosen someone? I also have a friend here. "I guess I can't go without it, right?

"What's the matter, your friend is my friend." Song Qi immediately handed me another movie ticket. Then the thief asked me slipperily: "Is it the beautiful Heavenly Master Bai Muling last time?" ”

"Go, go, what nonsense?" I waved my hand, thinking to myself, and mentioning Bai Muling, she has the heart to kill me now.

"This is not my gossip, it was you who told your grandfather that day, it was his granddaughter-in-law." Rub, Song Qi actually remembers this.

If I continued to talk about it, I guess I could figure it out, so I hurriedly drove him away: "Okay, you see that your girlfriend doesn't seem to be feeling well, you better take her to see it first." ”

When Song Qi heard me say this, he noticed that Gu Xiaobei's expression was a little ugly, "Yo, really, what's wrong with you?" What's uncomfortable? ”

"No, it's just a little stomachache." Gu Xiaobei replied.

"She's like that, a little stomach problem, that buddy said okay, tomorrow at six o'clock in the afternoon, I'll come to you together." I'll take her back to take some medicine first. ”

"Let's go." I waved at him.

"Gone." Song Qi took Gu Xiaobei away, but after a few steps, Gu Xiaobei suddenly turned around and said something to me.

But I didn't hear anything, because she just opened her mouth and didn't make a sound. It wasn't until they were gone that I pondered the shape of her mouth.

After thinking about it for a long time, I think the most likely thing she said is: finally waiting for you to come.
