Chapter 183: There is no successor
"What you said, I also remembered, when these people in the circle gathered the year before last, everyone talked about this problem, there should have been three spiritual children born across the country that year, one was born, the mother had a difficult birth, and the result was one corpse and two lives; When a family went back to their hometown to visit relatives, they also had a car accident, and none of the three members of the family survived; There is also a spirit child born after hitting the child twenty-four miles of the hundred days pass, within a hundred days out of the door and then possessed by a ghost, although the ghost zuihou let an old monk to degree, but because the initial sent to the hospital, the hospital can not diagnose and treat, the time is too long, the child has been rescued after no longer has any spiritual power, become an ordinary child, but this is also a good thing, never need to enter our line of work in the future. The fourth aunt added.
"Haven't you seen it yet?" Lao Dao asked the fourth aunt, "Do you mean artificial?" The fourth aunt gave her thoughts, "It's been nearly twenty years, and there are no newcomers in our line to add in, it's all our old guys who are carrying this banner and slaying demons everywhere." The current situation is that our group of old guys are dying one less than one, but there are more and more monsters, and one is going to be better. Poor Dao thinks that in the war to defend the way to eliminate demons, we have already lost, not in terms of ability, but in the fact that there is no successor. After Lao Dao finished speaking, the fourth aunt nodded in agreement, "That's right, everything is intentional by the Demon Dao, but it's a pity that you and I are still too busy to take care of ourselves, so where do we have the extra energy to protect these children." "The fourth aunt is also telling the truth, I can't say anything after listening to Brother Cao, after all, this is the older generation talking, communicating, so it's not my turn to intervene with Brother Cao, we are still young compared to others, and this topic is too heavy, at least for me and Brother Cao, who have not been in the industry for a long time to practice, it will bring greater psychological pressure, so the room fell into a deathly silence again.
I saw that the atmosphere was also depressed, and I planned to find a lighter topic to let everyone untie the knot, so I said: "Don't be sad, don't be sad, Brother Cao and I are not newcomers who have just been added, what is there to be sad about." ”
As soon as my words fell, the fourth aunt sighed, and then said: "Tree, do you know that you and I only have the status of master and apprentice, but have no status of master and apprentice? My brain quickly analyzed, there seemed to be no reasonable answer, I had no choice but to shake my head, the fourth aunt saw me shake his head, explained to me: "That's because I don't want you to follow our old path, this is the truth, so when I saw that the king praised you, I tried my best to prevent him from accepting you as an apprentice, just for fear that you would enter our line by mistake." The fourth aunt said helplessly, "But, fourth aunt, if you don't want me to enter this industry, what if Weishenme wants to teach me Zhu Youshu?" "I especially don't understand the inconsistency of the fourth aunt.
This time, the sloppy Taoist spoke, "Doll, most of the things taught to you are skills that allow you to protect your life, after all, your physique is too dirty, and without someone in the industry to protect you, it is almost a miracle that you can survive until now, but you don't know it." If I really want to take you as an apprentice, I will take you as an apprentice long before you are eight years old, so why wait until now? You know, it's too late for you to start learning these things now. "Lao Dao seems to be quite distressed.
"It's too late!" The fourth aunt also echoed the sloppy Taoist and said, "Now the fake monks and fake Taoists who are full of shijie, taking advantage of people's curiosity about our industry, are abducted and deceived everywhere, and the reputation of our industry is all stinky. Not to mention, if it is effective, it is fine, often they collect money but harm other people's lives, even other people's whole family, such villains are also very popular. "The fourth aunt summed up the current situation of our industry very tangledly." The dolls are all atheists nowadays, how many of them are willing to listen to us old guys? When you really encounter danger, you start to go to the doctor with illness, but you don't know that the missed opportunity is as difficult to collect as water. Lao Dao continued with the words of the fourth aunt.
"The fake monks and Taoists are their own evils, I don't belong to me, and it's not my turn to worry about this, what do I care about most is what do you two mean by saying too late?" I still didn't understand what these two people were saying, it was a miracle, it was too late, what was it.
The sloppy Taoist reluctantly continued to explain to me, "Take my Taoism alone, you need to enter the industry when you are young, from the initial physical fitness, internal strength, food tonic medicine, divination, acupuncture and massage, do talisman painting urns, pinch the recipe and chant mantras, open the altar practice, to the middle of the demon subjugation, eliminate the demon and defend the road, the ultimate purpose is to make good friends, help the world and save people, increase their own immortal roots or in folk parlance is to accumulate virtue and do good, of course, there are great achievements in it can seek immortality, and even feathering into immortals is not impossible." Whether it is poor or Liu Jushi, they are all small into this industry, and after years of experience, they can have today's attainments. But now you are almost thirty years old, and you have only begun to enter this realm, it is too late, the spirit has not been fully discovered, and the state of mind is also polluted by the world, the most important thing is that you have too many thoughts to meditate, and no matter which sect or sect in our industry needs to concentrate on cultivation, aside from meditation, you don't have so much time to learn these things in the world. After all, you have already entered the WTO, so when you said that you wanted to worship me as a teacher, the poor Dao refused it all at once, and this is the reason. ”
When I heard Lao Dao say that I planned to worship him as a teacher, I gave Lao Dao a look, after all, without the consent of the fourth aunt, I would privately recognize someone else as a master, which is not reasonable and reasonable, but the sloppy Taoist said him as usual as if he didn't see it. When Lao Dao finished speaking, I found that the fourth aunt's eyes were not so kind when she looked at me, mixed with a trace of anger, yes! I knew I would have to do my own dinner today.
Sure enough, after the fourth aunt heard about my apprenticeship, she asked me with a little anger: "Do you really plan to worship Wang Dao as a teacher?" ”
I rub, don't bring such a play. It's too embarrassing for me, the character of the old way, the style, and the ability are what I like, so I plan to learn more things by worshipping him as a teacher, but after all, the fourth aunt is also my master, if the fourth aunt disagrees, I will be tantamount to offending the fourth aunt and the old way at the same time, it is really self-inflicted.
Brother Cao, who had not spoken all this time, actually came out to play a round for me at this time, "Fourth aunt, you dissipate your anger, you don't know Jia Shu, this kid, how poor his mouth is, what's the matter, he just said that, and then he forgot, don't take it to heart." "At the critical time, I have to be a brother for many years, this round is really good, just Chong Brother Cao to help me like this, I will invite you to dinner today!
