The tea is a tribute tea that must be placed when the people of Cheongju invite the statue into their homes, symbolizing that they invite the gods to drink tea and ask him to stay at home to bless peace. www.biquge.info As the saying goes, it is easy to invite the gods and it is difficult to send the gods, and it is actually a very serious matter to invite the gods at home, and it will cause considerable trouble if it is not good.

The New Year is approaching, but the business of the tea house is not as good as day by day, and the store has been "throwing off the gap" for several days, looking at the cash cabinet that is about to end the spider web, my heart begins to get nervous.

The so-called inappropriate family does not know the price of firewood and rice, usually the store is the old lady in charge, I just eat and sleep to spend money, now it is my turn to be in charge of the house to feel that everything is troublesome.

The store is currently fully stocked, but there is not much money in circulation, the family has to spend money on big and small things, there are three mouths in the house waiting to eat every day, and the glass door outside is also posted on the water and electricity bills that have been in arrears for two months, so it will not be able to live before the New Year!

If you are poor, you will think about change, and I am determined to buy a statue of the God of Wealth and put it in the store to attract wealth! (Don't scold me for being a loser, I didn't know if my brain was convulsive at the time)

Moon Dance and I were discussing how big the God of Wealth would be to come back, when the glass door was suddenly pushed open, and the long-lost customer finally came to the door!

Coming in was an old Taoist priest wearing a thick cotton robe, seeing that the fabric of his robe was exquisite, his clothes were neat, his face was full of red light, under the two long white eyebrows was a pair of vicissitudes but not lacking in smart eyes, and on the thin palm, two egg-sized jade balls were being pinched and turned skillfully by him in the palm of his hand.

I immediately rubbed my palms, squeezed a smile on my face, and asked Lao Dao with a smile, "What do you want from this guest officer?" ”

The old Taoist priest nodded at me and smiled slightly, stretched out his fingers and saluted me back, "Wuji Tianzun, I have seen the little post official, the old Taoist surname is Zhang, everyone calls me from Hokkaido, I have been a little uncomfortable recently, please give the old Taoist a pound of Mingyan tea with eye-catching effects."

"You know me?" Hearing the old way call me a little post officer, I curiously pointed to my nose and asked the Hokkaido people.

The old Taoist priest stroked his silver beard and said with a smile: "The old post officer is honorably retired, and the little post officer is taking office, who doesn't know about the yin and yang paths!" ”

I was overjoyed to hear the old words, but I didn't expect that I would become a celebrity, and after weighing half a catty of Mingyan tea for the Hokkaido people and carefully packaging it, I respectfully handed it to him.

Lao Dao happily took the tea, then looked up and asked me, "I just heard at the door that you are going to invite a statue of the God of Wealth in?" ”

Seeing me nodding to Moon Dance, the old Taoist priest sighed slightly, "I advise you not to invite back so easily."

"Why? Isn't it good to invite the God of Wealth into the house? "Moondance listened to the words of the Hokkaido people and didn't understand it.

Lao Dao sighed, and then told us a story.

A few years ago, in a city in a foreign country, a pair of brothers surnamed Shi partnered to open a bun shop, the store just opened business is not very good, for several weeks in a row, the small shop opened at the entrance of the community, it stands to reason that there should be no shortage of customers, but looking at the door of the shop, the brothers doubted whether there was a problem with feng shui, and found that the problem had to be solved, so the brothers decided to ask a statue of the God of Wealth to be placed in the store to increase some wealth.

The two brothers went to the stall to choose a god of wealth holding a banner of fortune and treasure, and hung the shrine on the high wall facing the door, I don't know if the two brothers made the buns taste good, or the statue of the god of wealth in the store really attracted wealth, the customers in the store gradually increased, but after a few days, the two brothers found that the leftover buns often disappeared from the cage drawer inexplicably, and there were often some leftover buns scattered all over the ground in the morning, so the brothers didn't take it to heart.

The bun shop is divided into two rooms, the brothers take the store as their home, work in the front room during the day to earn money, and go to the back room to sleep at night, one night, the younger brother got up in the middle of the night in a daze to go to the toilet, suddenly heard a strange sound from the front room, the younger brother vigilantly put his ear on the door, heard the sound that seemed to be chewing food, is there someone stealing their own buns, the store is a thief?

The younger brother hurriedly woke up the elder brother, and the two of them rushed into the front room with rolling pins in their hands, ready to clean up the thieves who did not have long eyes, but turned on the bright electric light, only to see that there was no one in the front room, the doors and windows were locked, and the half-eaten buns rolled down to the feet, and the meat filling inside was scattered all over the ground, no one knew what had just happened in the front room, only the God of Wealth who hung on the wall looked at the two brothers scratching their ears and cheeks on the ground with a strange smile.

The next day, they bought rat poison to get rid of the rat that had been eaten in the middle of the night, but every night the familiar sound of stealing food would still be heard, and the shop was still full of leftover buns, and the rat poison in the corner did not move at all.

The first thing they do every morning is to clean the mess in the front room, and the brothers can no longer stand the troublesome mouse, so they raise five big cats to help watch the store, these five are wild cats outside, can eat mice and fight, the brothers locked the five cats that had been hungry for a day in the front room, and went to sleep peacefully.

In the middle of the night, the cat's panicked screams woke up the two brothers, and they ran to the front room in the dark before they had time to put on their clothes, only to see a vague figure squatting in the dark corner of the front room, the figure lowered its head, as if gnawing on something, and the cat's screams came from the front of the man.

The dazzling light instantly filled the huge front room, the figure that was still vague just now had disappeared, and several bloodied cats were frantically running around the store like escaping from prison, and the brothers came to the corner, and saw two half-eaten dead cats staring at the brothers with a pair of lifeless eyes!

The brothers were frightened by the bloody picture in front of them, what was it that gnawed the cat like this? Looking around the front room, who is there a living creature other than the brothers and a few cats that have fled for their lives? The murderer can't be caught, but the business has to be done tomorrow morning, and the brothers can only clean up the blood stains in the house overnight.

At that time, the elder brother felt a chill in his back, his scalp was numb, and the statue of the God of Wealth in front of him was more terrifying than the wandering spirits floating in the cemetery in his eyes at this time, at this time, the black eyes of the statue suddenly turned to look at him, the God of Wealth was condescending, showing a strange smile and looking at him, so frightened that his brother's knees were weak and he sat on the ground, when he pulled his younger brother in horror to look at the shrine, but saw the God of Wealth sitting in the shrine with his eyes looking straight ahead, and the blood stains on the corners of his mouth were gone. It's as if everything you just saw was an illusion.

After that, my brother often felt that there was a pair of eyes secretly staring at him behind his back when he was selling steamed buns in the front room, and he also glanced at the God of Wealth hanging on the wall from time to time, looking at the statue of the god who still showed a festive smile, my brother always felt hairy in his heart.

That night, there was a slight restless sound in the front room, the high cage drawer was lifted by a mysterious external force, and the buns placed in the cage drawer were taken out by a blurred hand, at this time, the lights on the roof suddenly turned on, and the two brothers who had not slept and hid in the back room shouted loudly with kitchen knives in their hands, and rushed into the front room with murderous spirits, and the two of them saw that the front room was quiet, and there was no shadow of a living thing, but the high cage drawer did show signs of being moved, and there were two meat buns missing inside!

Just as the two brothers looked at each other, a half-eaten bun suddenly fell from the shrine dedicated to the god of wealth and landed right on the younger brother's head.

The two brothers took the bamboo ladder and bravely climbed to the shrine to take a closer look at the statue of the God of Wealth, which had not been bought for a long time, only to see that the shrine was full of meat filling and dough of buns, and a meat bun that had eaten a quarter of it was actually in the hand of the God of Wealth statue holding the banner!

The face of the God of Wealth fired by ceramic reflects the white light of the roof, the miserable white face, with the smile hanging on the skin, makes people feel uncomfortable, at this time, the eyes on the smiling face of the God of Wealth turned again, a pair of big black and round eyes glanced at the two brothers respectively, and then swung back to the front, as if the eyes that had just shaken were just the illusion of the two.

The two brothers were so frightened by the strange scene in front of them that their legs trembled and they almost fell off the bamboo ladder.

"Then what about later, did the two of them throw away the idol?" I asked curiously as I propped my hands on the counter.

The Hokkaido man nodded at me.

The next day, the two brothers who had not slept all night did not open the door, but paid someone to remove the statue of the God of Wealth hanging on the shrine on the wall and threw it to the garbage factory not far away.

The two brothers confronted the statue on the wall with kitchen knives in hand, and the next day, exhausted, the two came to the Taoist temple to find the Hokkaido people and beg him to help.

After hearing the two brothers' narration, the Hokkaido people frowned, shook their heads, and said, "It's all because the two of you were too rash when you invited the gods, if those statues don't have the master to open the light and invite the gods, they will become a place for the ghosts and ghosts, you invite it home and throw it out, it's strange if it doesn't come back to trouble you!" ”

The Hokkaido man came to the store with the two brothers, asked the two brothers to move the idol in front of him, and then closed the doors and windows, and then the Hokkaido man suddenly took out a Taoist talisman and stuck it on the forehead of the idol, and then the idol opened its big mouth full of fangs, and let out a strange and sad laugh at the Hokkaido, which frightened the two brothers on one side.

"Presumptuous!"

The Hokkaido people shouted angrily, waved the dust in their hands to wrap the body of the idol tightly, and then stretched out their two fingers with protruding joints, and slammed through the forehead of the idol, at this time the idol let out a terrible scream, and the body made of ceramics shook violently, if it was not tightly wrapped in the dust, the two brothers hiding on the side even wondered if the idol would have flown away with wings.

Slowly, the screams became weaker and weaker, and the frequency of the idol's shaking became slower and slower, and when the idol stopped, the Hokkaido people pushed with both hands and pushed down the idol in front of them, and the idol made of ceramics fell into countless small pieces on the ground, and a half-human-tall giant mouse lay motionless on the ground in countless splashed debris, and the fat mouse was actually hidden in the hollow idol! How did it get in?!

The Hokkaido people shook their heads in regret and grabbed the fat rat, only to see that there was a hole the size of two fingers in the mouse's forehead.

"Wuji Tianzun, Poor Dao wants to drive you away with a talisman, but he insists on harming people if he doesn't want you, and he has to take your life as a last resort, which is really a pity."

After the Hokkaido people instructed the two brothers to ask the gods to be sure to go to a serious place to please, and the gods must be sent sincerely, otherwise it is easy to cause disaster, after speaking, the old Taoist carried the corpse of the dead mouse back to the Taoist temple for cremation.

"Rich is a blessing, poor is a blessing, no disaster is a blessing, Xiaoyi official, the end of the year is approaching, there will be more customers who come to buy tea, and I hope you calm down and wait with peace of mind, you can celebrate the New Year if you have money, and you can celebrate the New Year without money, isn't it?" The Hokkaido man smiled at me and left the tea house in style.

After that, I dismissed the plan to invite the God of Wealth with Moon Dance, but within a few days, there were more customers who came to buy tea, but as soon as those guys entered the house, they stared at Moon Dance up and down in a daze, and what they said was inseparable from Moon Dance, needless to say, they were all womanizers attracted by Moon Dance's beauty, and I took the opportunity to raise the price and slaughter these people with other plans, which can be regarded as raising funds for the New Year.
