Chapter 30: The Taoist Priest

After a month of leisure, Labor Day has arrived in a blink of an eye, ushering in the three-day holiday that everyone is looking forward to. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Everyone else is on vacation, only I am born to work hard!"

Seeing my classmates packing up and going home one by one, I couldn't help but sigh.

I have to take advantage of the three-day vacation to send Wu Xue back to her hometown in Y State, after all, it is still very inconvenient to carry a bracelet with her at all times. Besides, this folk has its own masters, and I'm afraid that Wu Xue will encounter an accident at that time.

What bothers me is that I don't know what kind of reason to think of to lie to my aunt that I won't come home for the holidays, which is still a bit difficult for me who is not good at lying. Fortunately, since I experienced Wu Xue's incident, my aunt's family's attitude towards me has been much better, so as soon as I spoke, my aunt agreed directly without even asking the reason.

I bought a bus ticket to Q city at the county station, and I was still a little apprehensive in my heart, after all, I had never been to Q city, and I was not familiar with where I was. But fortunately, Wu Xue was my guide, which made my heart settle down a lot.

While waiting at the station, I saw a somewhat familiar figure, a person wearing a school uniform of the county No. 1 middle school and carrying a small school bag, looking at the ticket while looking for something. The girl looked fresh and refined, her face was exquisite, and Zhenglian walked into the waiting hall step by step.

The appearance of the girl attracted the attention of many people, many of whom were women. Many of the boys vacated their bags and looked at the girl expectantly, hoping that she would sit next to them. When I watched the girls walk towards me, the boys in this direction were about to boil!

"Eh, aren't you Song Zijie? I didn't expect to see you here! As she passed me, she somehow caught a glimpse of me, and said with great joy.

"Uh-huh, you're ...... Yang Meng? I asked, somewhat uncertain.

"It's me, it's me, where are you going?" Saying that, Yang Meng put down her backpack and naturally sat next to me.

"I have something to do to go to Q City, I haven't seen you for many years, you are getting more and more beautiful, I can't recognize it!" I said with a smile.

"Really? I haven't seen you for three years, and you've changed a lot. I also happened to be going to my grandmother's house in Q City, so we could go together! Yang Meng said happily.

"Okay!" I laughed.

Yang Meng and I are talking and laughing here, which has attracted the hateful eyes of many men. If the eyes could kill, I might have been burned N+1 times.

Soon after, the car bound for Q City came, and Yang Meng and I got into the car together. Naturally, we sat together, so a lot of flaming eyes were focused on me.

It takes about two hours to take the highway from the county seat to Q City, and Yang Meng and I talked very happily along the way, talking about life from study, and finally talking about feelings. But the flame in the eyes of those who hated me along the way was never extinguished, and they all wanted to step forward and kick me out of the window and sit in my place.

said that it was a conversation, but in fact, almost all the way Yang Meng was asking, and I was answering. Time passed quietly in the conversation between Yang Meng and me, and in the blink of an eye, the car had entered the station.

After getting off the train, although Yang Meng was a little reluctant in his eyes, because the places we were going to were not in the same direction, we parted ways outside the station.

After separating from Yang Meng, I went to a sparsely populated corner and took out the bracelet that was in my personal pocket.

"I said Wu Xue, in which direction is your home? I don't know anyone here, don't sell me! I said to Wu Xue.

"Just go west, don't worry, even if you want to sell you, no one may be willing to buy it!" Wu Xueyu said with a smile in the bracelet.

"Am I abandoned?" I asked with a smile.

"It's not very good, at least that beautiful girl just now is definitely willing to buy you back!" Wu Xue said with a smile.

"Don't mess around, Yang Meng and I are only meeting for the third time! I think she should be grateful that I saved her, just grateful, not what you think. ”

At that moment, I told Wu Xue everything about Yang Meng, just to show that there is no love between men and women between me and Yang Meng.

"Come on, don't admit it! If it was in our time, she would have promised to be cheap, not cheap and good. Wu Xue pouted.

“……”

After learning the general direction, I first went to the nearby red and white ceremonial store to buy things like yellow mounted paper and incense candles, then went to the hardware store to buy a shovel, and then called a taxi.

"Master, go west out of the city!"

The taxi driver answered and pressed the meter and left, but when he saw the shovel in my hand, he had a strange look in his eyes.

After the taxi was stable, the master began to talk to me, and he was very enthusiastic to introduce me to some recent events in Q City, especially when he talked about the ancient tomb reported in the news a few days ago.

"Little brother, you don't know, that evil at that time. None of the people who went down to the ancient tomb came to a good end, and not to mention that those who did not come up also died unexpectedly! Later, I also invited nearby monks and Taoist priests to come to practice, saying that there was a problem with the feng shui of the ancient tomb, and there were unclean things in it! Therefore, those monks and Taoist priests were there for several days, saying that they wanted to overtake the spirits of the dead in the tomb! ”

The taxi driver spoke as if he had seen it himself. When he saw that I was not talking, he thought that I was listening vigorously, so he began to speak even harder.

"It is said that in modern society, we must believe in science and oppose superstition! But those who died couldn't find out the cause of death, don't you think it's strange? Later, there were unbelieving tomb robbers who wanted to get oil and water, but they also folded in it. In the end, the government had to ask those monks and Taoist priests to help them seal the ancient tomb so that no more accidents would happen! ”

It wasn't boring to hear the taxi driver say this along the way, but it was just his hearsay, and he couldn't take it seriously.

After walking for almost two hours, Wu Xue asked me to stop at a fork in the road.

"The young man is young and vigorous, but don't take chances to rob the tomb! That place is the ghost gate, and there is no return! Don't lose your life! The taxi driver looked at the shovel in my hand as he left, and said earnestly.

I was speechless for a while, obviously the taxi driver himself told me about the ancient tomb, how did I become a tomb robber now? I don't think I look like a grave robber anywhere in my body.

It didn't take long to walk along the fork in the road before there was no concrete road, replaced by a dirt-covered path. I really feel nostalgic when I see this kind of country road, and I think that when I was in the countryside, I had to walk this kind of road four or five times a day to school. If the weather is fine, if it rains suddenly, the soil on the road will be soaked by the rain and softened, sticky and slippery. Not to mention sticking to the trouser legs, if you are not careful, you will slip and fall to the ground, and your clothes will be covered with mud.

However, this path is much wider than the back road, and there are still many footprints and wheel prints on the path at this time, and it is hard to imagine who will drive to this place.

Skirting a small hill, a large river appeared on the side of the road. The river is so green that it is difficult to see the bottom at a glance.

"I said Wu Xue, we've been gone for so long, how long will it take to get to your house?"

It's not that I'm tired of walking, but I don't know the destination and I don't have a hope in my heart, which is easy to cause psychological fatigue.

"Come on, go up the river, it'll be there soon!" Wu Xue said happily.

At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in the distance, startling me. If it weren't for the fact that it's blue and white, I really think it's ghosts at work.

Relying on the audacity of the artist, I held the shovel tightly, and walked cautiously towards the figure, only to find that the person was wearing a Taoist robe, a Taoist priest!

"Don't let him find me!"

I couldn't contain the excitement in my heart, and I wanted to say hello, after all, this was the first fellow practitioner I had met since I became a monk! But Wu Xue immediately spoke up to stop me.

Hearing Wu Xue's eager voice, I reacted. That's right, if he discovers Wu Xue's existence, I'm afraid it will be complicated.

Dispelling the idea of greeting the Taoist priest and sitting down with this Taoist priest, I began to look at this fellow Taoist who suddenly appeared quietly. I was a bit surprised by his appearance, and he always gave me a very weird feeling.

While I was looking at the Taoist priest, the Taoist priest was also looking at me. When we passed by each other, I didn't feel the righteousness of being a cultivator in him, but there was a yin and evil aura coming towards me!

The Taoist priest has a small cloth bag embroidered with a gossip pattern pinned to his waist, which is particularly eye-catching, and there seems to be something squirming inside!

Just as I wanted to take a closer look, the Taoist priest suddenly stared at me with an extremely unkind expression, as if he was going to eat me in the next second.

I held the shovel tightly in my hand and immediately quickened my pace, until I turned another hill and could not see the shadow of the Taoist priest.

"That Taoist priest didn't seem to be a good person just now, his eyes looked a little scary!" I said with a sigh of relief.

"I feel that way too! You have to be careful not to run into him again. Just now he looked at you like he was going to eat you! Wu Xue said timidly.

"Okay, okay, I'm not a vegetarian either! I didn't bring a guy today, if he is really a bad way that hurts heaven and reason, I will definitely fight him one day! Now it's time to get you home! ”

"It's my house in front of me!" Wu Xue also breathed a sigh of relief.

Following the direction of Wu Xue's guidance, I saw an extremely dilapidated lonely tomb. The stones on which the tombs were piled up were covered with moss, and the tombstones were also severely weathered, and the contents on them could not be seen clearly, but some quaint lines and a few surviving traditional characters could be faintly seen.

Seeing my surroundings felt a little familiar, as if I had seen them somewhere. As I looked at the other side of the hill, I instantly remembered where I had seen it, and understood why the taxi driver had taken me for a grave robber!

Because on the other side of the hill is the ancient tomb that I saw on the news on my computer a few days ago, and the surrounding environment is also a quick glimpse of the surrounding environment in the report.

When I got into the car, I didn't specify the location, and I just asked the driver to drive the car to the west, which happened to be on this side. I carry shovels and incense sticks with me, so it's hard to explain them clearly.

The ancients attached great importance to feng shui, whether it was Wu Xue's tomb or the ancient tomb opposite, it didn't look like it was built by a poor family, so naturally it should pay more attention to feng shui.

But the feng shui in this area is not very good, especially where the ancient tomb is located, the dragon vein is cut off by the river, and it is simply a murderous hole, no wonder something happened.

"Has this river always flowed like this?" I lit the incense candle and asked Wu Xuedao.

"No, this river used to come from that side, until the mountains were bombed during the war a few decades ago, and then the flood collapsed in the middle, and the river was diverted!" Wu Xue said seriously.

"I see!"

If the river hadn't been diverted, it would have been a treasure of feng shui. It is really that people are not as good as heaven, a feng shui treasure hundreds of years ago, who knew that under the action of nature and manpower, it would become a murderous hole?
