Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Past of the Master and the Captain
"Let's go back and talk" Old Man Liu smiled bitterly, sitting motionless on the boat in a daze,
Seeing this scene, we couldn't say anything, nodded sullenly and stopped talking,
The breeze is still there, but the relaxed feeling has disappeared, thinking of the matter between my master and Mr. Liu, my heart is heavy,
Shigong has been dead for more than 20 years, who would have thought that he would meet Shigong's eldest brother after many years,
After more than an hour, we arrived at the final place.
There are more than a dozen wooden houses here, built on the shore not far from the water's edge, and there are two dogs and seven or eight chickens outside the house, which suddenly makes us feel a unique atmosphere of the countryside.
Following behind Old Man Liu, he slowly walked into the innermost wooden house.
"Sit down and rest for a while, and I'll get you something to eat." The old man smiled, stood up and walked to the kitchen.
Seeing this situation, we can sit safely, and everyone is still cooking for our group of young people.
We hurried into the kitchen to help, and the old man didn't say anything when he saw us coming in, and stir-fried the vegetables without saying a word.
In a short time, the room was filled with the smell of food, because we had been hungry all afternoon and had not eaten anything, and now our saliva was about to come out.
My mother, this old man's cooking tastes too good.
"Hurry up, little ones, you look hungry, you're welcome." Seeing the reincarnation of Lao Song's starving ghost, the old man gently patted Lao Song's shoulder and smiled: "It's not enough, I'll do it for you." ”
After eating a meal, everyone was about to eat, and Lao Song couldn't stop burping and drinking water desperately.
"You deserve it, you grandson is in such a hurry." I saw that he was choked, and immediately laughed: "This is the consequence of grabbing vegetables from Lao Tzu to eat, choking will not kill your grandson." ”
Everyone else laughed, and at that moment, something that hurt my eggs happened.
"Quack" A toad sounded at our feet, it was difficult
"We misheard." Dad smiled calmly,
"Quack" Xiao Budian crawled up along my feet, screaming while crawling, and his dark eyes still had a hint of displeasure,
(Voiceover: I'm hungry and you still ignore me, whether there is a toad or not, I'm angry,)
The corners of everyone's eyes twitched constantly, looking at the little ones who were eating happily on the table, black lines appeared on their heads,
I resisted the urge to punch people and squeezed out a false smile: "Little one, you came here when you were a god." ”
Xiao Budian snorted coldly, turned around and ate the food, leaving a butt dangling in front of my eyes, ouch fuck, where did you learn this bad habit,
"I said why didn't I see it when I set off earlier, it turned out to be hidden," Dad smiled helplessly,
This little thing has also learned to play lurking,,I haven't seen it stumble along the way.,Why did you get out by yourself as soon as you eat?,What kind of habit is this?,It must have been taught by the old Song Dynasty.,
Old Song looked at us without tears and shouted: "This is not what I taught, don't you look at me with this kind of murderous look." ”
It's not who else he has, , I didn't know until many years later that I learned this trick from TV,
In the spy war movie, an agent stuffed the computer chip in his bag, evaded many inspections, and finally ran to happiness.
The TV series is not shallow, no, it should be a toad
The old man looked at Xiao Budian curiously, raised his chopsticks and kept holding the dishes for it: "The little guy comes to eat slowly, he can eat so much at such a small size, what an interesting little guy." ”
"Quack~" Xiao Bu shouted happily, looking at the old man kindly, don't mention the affection, it's like seeing his father,
This is a clear truth, whoever gives it food is its own father,
When everyone has eaten and drunk enough, it is already dark, and you can only rest here for one night and then continue the next day.
Sitting on the grass outside the wooden house, the old man told us about his past with his master.
They were twin brothers of the same mother, and their appearance was very similar, they were exactly the same when they were young, and they were a little different when they grew up.
The old man's original name was Liu Tianqing, and his master's name was Ye Tianqing, although the names are similar, but the personalities are too different.
Shigong has been fond of gods and ghosts since he was a child, and the old man likes to do business.
When they were ten years old, their father suddenly fell seriously ill and couldn't wake up, and they couldn't find many doctors, so they could only invite a Taoist priest to take a look.
This Taoist priest came from other places to settle in the local area, and lived there for about two or three years, and his reputation is not small.
Not many people know the road number and name, and the people nearby call him a half-fairy.
When the Taoist priest went to see his father's father, his face changed as soon as he saw his father: "The soul does not possess the body, which is really rare, but fortunately, only three of the seven spirits are lost." ”
It turned out that his father's illness was not an ordinary incurable disease, but that his soul had left his body and could not return.
This is not an ordinary loss of soul, there is a special reason,
For those who have lost their souls, their souls can return to their bodies, and even if they can't go back, they can call their souls back.
The soul does not possess the body, and the body is disconnected from the soul, and there is no way to get it back with ordinary magic.
This situation may be caused by evil magic, or it may be due to other reasons, the Taoist priest didn't ask much, and it took about half a month to cure Shigong's father.
From that day on, this Taoist priest was the idol of his master, and he ran to people's houses twice in three days, listening to the Taoist priest tell him stories.
Over time, under the influence of Taoist priests, Shigong also has the ideal of being a Taoist priest.
When he was twenty years old, Shigong followed the Taoist priest up the mountain alone to seek Taoism, and learned Taoism to exorcise ghosts and suppress evil spirits.
The old man followed his father around and started a business.
After the outbreak of the Cultural Revolution, the old man's father took a family of three to hide here, because of the sparse population, the rush of the Cultural V Revolution did not affect here.
"Alas, my little brother actually went to look for it for so many years, and I thought I would have the opportunity to meet" The old man laughed at himself, and sighed with a bitter face: "It seems that I can only go to the Huangquan family to reunite after death."
After listening to this story for a long time, we sighed with the old man, and our hearts were full of thoughts.
I haven't seen each other for decades, who knows that I finally got the news, but yin and yang are forever separated, this is creation and making people, or the way of heaven is ruthless,
Dad also slowly told the story of his acquaintance with his master, and told the old man all the same things from childhood to adulthood.
"It seems that my little brother is also very good, yes, I don't have a shame for being a big brother." The old man laughed, tears glistening in his eyes, and the pride in his tone was obvious,
"Master is a very powerful person." Dad smiled proudly,
"Little brother probably thought we were all dead, so he didn't come to us, after all, we haven't been in touch for so long."
"It's normal that I didn't tell you about the family, I don't know his temper yet, I'm afraid I'll be sad when I mention it, but fortunately I won't mention it."
Lao Song and I and others sat on the grass and listened to these stories quietly, sighing and feeling sad at the same time.
Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, who can know that the master is separated from his family and has been single for so many years,
