Chapter 3 Treasure Hunting
I looked out the door, and there was a boy in his twenties-fifteen standing outside the door, looking very gentle, like a good student in the school, and a bookish breath came to his face.
"Guest officer, please, there are many kinds of antiques in the shop, you can take your time." As soon as Lao Song saw someone coming, he stood up and greeted. Dad heard someone looking for him, walked out and asked the man, "I am, do you have anything to do with me?" The man did not answer his father's question, but opened his mouth and whispered, "How can you find the way without entering the world?" A thousand years into the red dust. Who is not a red dust guest? Crossing the common people is immortals. ”
We were shocked when we heard it, no? There are few people in Youfang Dao, but this one is a fellow disciple today? With a little surprise on his face, Dad asked, "Who are you?" Also a disciple of the You Fang lineage? ”
The man nodded, and said with a happy smile: "I finally found you, Uncle Qi, my name is Wu Tian, and I am also a disciple of You Fang's lineage!" Seeing that there was confusion on our faces, he told us the whole thing as it was.
May 1966 was an unusual day.
The Cultural Revolution was launched at this time, and countless precious cultural heritages were burned. And Taoism is the focus of the attack.
"Hit superstition! Destroy the cow ghost v snake god! Groups of Red Guards walked toward a Taoist temple, holding a picture of the chairman in their hands and shouting incessantly.
"Three junior brothers, today's Youfang is in a big disaster, and I'm afraid we won't be able to hold this temple. Let's go, or we probably won't end well. Shi Gong said with a wry smile.
There are three other senior brothers in the Taoist temple, and when they heard what the master said, the second junior brother Yuan Qianshan immediately stood up with an angry face: "We have saved a lot of people in the world, and we have never done anything that hurts heaven and reason, why do you want to smash our Taoist temple!" I'm not going! ”
"Alas, junior brother, now people say that we are feudal superstitions, can we be caught okay?" Shi Gong looked at Yuan Qianshan with a wry smile, and continued in a low voice: "If we don't leave today, maybe the inheritance of Youfang Yimai will be destroyed in our hands, if we leave, we can continue to pass on the Dao system in the future, and we can face the ancestor calmly after death." ”
Hearing what Shigong said, the other three senior brothers nodded heavily with red eyes.
In front of the statue of Master Zu, incense and candles were lit, and the four brothers lined up, knelt in front of Master Zu and shouted: "Master Zu, You Fang Yimai suffered this great disaster today!" Abandoning the view is purely helpless! Hope that the ancestor will bless, after this catastrophe, the four disciples will definitely promote the unity of my family! Don't let You Fang be ashamed! ”
As soon as the words fell, the four of them stood up, glanced at each other with red eyes, and hugged their fists: "Take care, senior brothers!" After saying that, the four of them scattered with their luggage, and when the Red Guards arrived at the Taoist temple, they found that only the statue of the ancestor was left, and the rest of the books and the like were all gone.
The third and fourth of the four died in Hunan and Hubei respectively. And the senior brother Zhen Yunzi, that is, my master, fled to Guiyang, and the second senior brother Yuan Qianshan ran to Chengdu, Sichuan.
At that time, when Wu Tian's father, Wu Jianguo, met his second senior brother Yuan Qianshan, he was only a fifteen-year-old child, and Yuan Qianshan was a Chinese medicine practitioner in the medical hall. By some coincidence, he accepted Wu Jianguo as a disciple and passed on all his skills to him.
Hearing this, we all sighed, after all, it has been decades, the predecessors have long been separated by yin and yang, and the younger disciples can still see each other, I have to say that it is fate.
"My father searched for a long time but couldn't find it, and then because of a serious illness, he unfortunately passed away four years ago, and before he died, he told me to find the remaining disciples and fulfill my master's last wish. Some time ago, I heard that someone in Guiyang claimed to be a disciple of the Taoist lineage of Youfang, and used the Taoist techniques handed down to drive away ghosts and evil spirits in the world, so I followed these clues to find Guiyang, and finally found you! Wu Tian said with a smile.
Dad patted him on the shoulder: "Xiaotian, come in and drink some water first and sit down." ”
"Uncle Shi, may I ask if Master Zhenyunzi is still there?" Wu Tian asked his father, and his father shook his head: "Master passed away more than ten years ago, by the way, did your father say that to fulfill his last wish, is to find other fellow disciples?" ”
Hearing his father ask, Wu Tian hesitated for a moment and said, "That's not the case, Shigong's last wish is to let us go and find the treasure of Shimen together." At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the inheritance treasure of our master was lost, and our disciples from generation to generation searched everywhere but did not find it, but the master found a little clue before he died. ”
Let's hear it, baby! Could it be a legendary artifact? Or is it the same equipment as the Kaihang?
"What kind of baby?" Lao Song asked curiously.
Wu Tian whispered word by word: "Immortal Ghost Book." ”
Immortal ghost book? What is that?
"According to my master, this book has been around since the Tang Dynasty, but I haven't seen it, and I don't know what it's for." Wu Tian saw that we were curious, so he explained.
"Ouch my v! The title of the book is so awesome, can you live forever if you have this book? Lao Song exclaimed excitedly. Seeing that Lao Song was guilty of the second, I hurriedly covered his mouth, lest he have to be beaten by his father again after a while, Wu Tian didn't mind seeing Lao Song say this, and smiled and said: "It shouldn't be, it may be a book that records the spells of the first vein of Youfang." ”
After listening to what Wu Tian said, Dad didn't say anything, lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking. After a while, he looked up at Wu Tian and said, "I haven't heard of this thing you said, but if you want to find it, we can help, after all, we are all from the same door." "As soon as we heard it, we felt a little uncomfortable, after all, we can find things slowly after looking for them, if we look for them during this time, how can we make money?
"Thank you, Uncle Shi, we have found some clues to this book, and someone sponsored us to find it, and we can also make money, the best of both worlds." Wu Tian saw that Lao Song's faces were a little stiff, and said to us with a smile.
Ouch I'll go, I can make money, I'm done!
I nodded with Lao Song and said, "We have done this, you can tell me how to find it!" Seeing that we agreed, Wu Tian said excitedly: "The clues of this thing are in several places, I will bring it tomorrow, and we will study it together." ”
"Wu Tian, you said someone sponsored it, who is it?" I asked him curiously, and when I asked, he smiled and said, "It's sponsored by a rich man, and that person likes antiques and other things, and we go to those places where we go to find ghost books, there are really a lot of antiques and whatever, and when the time comes, he will pay, and the antiques will belong to him, and we will take the money, and the ghost books will belong to us." ”
Lao Song and I heard that it was sponsored by a rich man, and the stone in my heart fell to the ground.
It looks like this poor life is coming to an end! Blessed by Master Zu! We are not far from getting rich!
