Chapter 7 Chen Daorong

Before the liberation of the Nam River, this place was called deuthangd by the local Miao people, which means beautiful canyon. The pen fun pavilion www.biquge.info 5 kilometers away from Qianxi County, with vertical and horizontal streams, deep canyons, waterfalls, and mountain ups and downs, towering into the clouds.

Nanjiang is just one of the many villages that are closer to the city, and in the eastern part of Guiqian, there are many villages, which are closed and isolated from the world. The development of the times is not linked to them, and the villagers still live their ancient life.

The sun rises and the sun sets.

Miao village is built according to the mountain, the river circulates through, the village is mostly stilted buildings, and every household has a horse head wall. The houses are full of colors and distinctive styles, and there are relics left by the inhabitants of ancient times.

The grandfather's name is Chen Daorong, and he came from the ancestor Chen Rong to consult the books himself. The word 'Dao' is taken from the Tao Te Ching, the founder of Taoism, Lao Tzu, 'Tao can be Dao, not Heng Dao'.

Chen Rong believes that everything will not be set in stone, and since his descendants choose Taoism, then of course he hopes to be open-minded and not stick to the rules.

Actually, I heard my grandfather say that when Chen Rong's ancestor chose his name, he also thought about it carefully.

In his view, those who learn the Tao are acting against the heavens, often doing things that are contrary to the heavens.

If you explore the heavens, you will be damned.

And grandpa is Chen Rong's only descendant, of course he doesn't want anything to happen to his descendants. In that way, the Chen family would be extinct, which made him faceless to face the ancestors below a hundred years later.

'Daorong' is actually a monk who attained Taoism in the Northern Wei Dynasty, when he was alive, he preached and praised the Buddha everywhere, and even went to the Western Regions and other places to worship the Buddha's relics.

A person who learns the Tao has taken the name of a monk, and the charm is only clear to Chen Rong himself.

Grandpa is nearly eighty years old this year, and his children and grandchildren are full of children, and the worries of Chen Rong's ancestors have long since disappeared.

Moreover, in this era of material scarcity, it is rare for grandpa to live to such an advanced age.

Grandpa is upright and upright. He walked with a long step, his waist was straight, and his voice was as loud as a bell.

In addition to being a Taoist priest, grandpa is also a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, but whenever anyone is sick, he basically comes to consult grandpa.

In my memory, my grandfather was just an ordinary little Taoist priest in the countryside. Take the pulse of the living, surpass the soul of the dead, chant the scriptures, and look at feng shui.

I was actually very opposed to feudal superstitions, but I saw more of them later, so I became less resistant. As long as you don't do things that harm society and reason, it's not a big deal.

After all, China's thousands of years of feudal superstition cannot be changed overnight.

In these small counties of Guiqian, there are many street gentlemen who tell fortunes and approve fortunes. Say they're Taoist priests, right? It's not, because they know a little bit of Taoist things, and they rely on one mouth to fool.

But people believe in this set, a fairy fight, the little ghost is difficult, and the man who came to tell the fortune told was dizzy and forgetful.

Thinking that these people just obediently took out their pockets and were grateful for metabolism, I felt more and more that feudal superstition was harmful.

Rural people have a low income, but for the sake of peace and peace of mind, they would rather eat less and use less. Several times a year, I have to enter the temple, burn incense and worship the Buddha, donate incense oil money, and gild the Bodhisattva.

Later, I saw a lot, but in fact, when I thought about it separately, I felt that it was clear. Isn't it popular to see a psychiatrist in the city now? Isn't the fortune teller on the street also an alternative psychiatrist?

At least, he made those doubts full of doubts, confusion, fear and other kinds of questions perfectly made psychological answers.

Fortunately, I have never seen my grandfather tell fortunes for people, because he has been busy with the dead. I support and agree with this, according to my hometown, this is a good thing to accumulate yin virtue.

Just doing this, grandpa also accepted three apprentices. The two eldest apprentices heard from their families that they should leave early. Went to the coastal city to develop. And I heard that the development is very good, and the bungalow car is driving, relying on the craftsmanship learned from my grandfather.

I smiled, grandpa overspent his soul and buried the dead, only a few hundred yuan at a time. In the 90s, a few hundred dollars was considered a high income.

As far as I know, those street fortune tellers only pay five cents for a fortune telling.

I haven't seen those two big apprentices, but I have seen my grandfather's three apprentices.

Everyone calls him Da Kui, as his name suggests, as long as Kuiba, Mu Na is honest, a typical dealer man. Da Kui is a Han Chinese, and he is only in his thirties. Grandpa followed him when he had a job, and when he had nothing to do, he farmed at home. But as soon as Da Kui was free, he went to his grandfather's house to help, no matter what he did, he did what he saw, and he was diligent and pragmatic.

I remember that in the past, my grandfather used to sit on the threshold, Bala this dry smoke. looked at Da Kui, who was busy with work, and said with a smile: "This reckless man, if he didn't kneel and couldn't get up back then, how could he accept him as an apprentice, now that I think about it, I really regret it." ”

Looking at my grandfather's smugness, I asked Da Kui disdainfully: "Brother Da Kui, you see that grandpa said you so badly, you don't object to two sentences." ”

Unexpectedly, Da Kui stopped what he was doing, scratched his head stupidly and replied: "What the master said is that fortunately, I insisted on kneeling at the beginning, or the master didn't accept me, I would be finished." It's because I'm too stupid to compare to the two senior brothers, just like the master said, we people who learn the Tao pay attention to talent. ”

Ay! I can only hate it.

It seems that Da Kui is another brainwashed and very successful person. For a layman like me, or for someone who is particularly resistant to me, I really don't know where the charm of this thing is.

I once asked my grandfather the question that many people have asked: Are there ghosts in this world?

Grandpa avoided answering, saying that there was, and it existed in people's hearts. There are ghosts in the heart, naturally there are, and the heart is open, where do the ghosts start.

After talking for a long time, I was very dissatisfied with my grandfather's answer.

However, whether my grandfather is a Taoist priest or a Chinese medicine doctor, I always admire him very much. Because he is in the Qianxi area, he has indeed done a lot of good things.

Grandpa knew that I was coming, he was very happy, laughed, and said that it was no wonder that the hawthorn bird kept calling today, and it turned out that my little Ah Lang was back. I thought to myself, why is grandpa still the same as before, talking in a crepe! It's not like the people in the village, but it's the same tone as those ancient ministers on TV.

"I said, Ah Lang, I need to send a letter before I come, why did I come here myself. It's no more dangerous here than anywhere else, and you can't be so reckless next time. ”

As soon as I was fine, my grandfather began to educate me in an instant. Grandma was even more excited, and said that this child was too inattentive, but fortunately nothing happened, otherwise what should I do!

The fifth uncle is the youngest son of his grandfather, the fifth in line, and has always stayed in Qianxi, although he did not live with his grandfather, he often came back. Usually the fifth uncle loves me the most and supports me in everything he does. Now standing next to my grandfather, he pointed at me with his hand and said, "You, you..."

As soon as everyone is like this, I am a little confused, as terrible as this is a bandit's den, is it so serious?

"Grandpa, now it's a legal society, do you think it's still before liberation, bandits and bandits are running all over the mountain? How can it be as serious as you say! ”

"Heh... Ah Lang is so unconvinced? The bandit cottage is not terrible, but you are afraid..."Grandpa scolded with a smile, but he didn't say anything anymore, just instructed: "Next time you come to say hello to grandpa, I'll pick you up, there are many famous halls in the mountains." ”

I said yes, and if I want to quibble again, I can't figure it out at all.

I was going to have a good chat with my grandfather, Lala is homely, after all, I haven't seen him for a long time, and I have a lot of questions about medicine to ask him.

But later, someone came from the village, saying that someone in the village had been hit by Gu, and asked grandpa to take a look. As soon as I heard about this thing, I became interested, although I didn't believe it, it was still good to look at it.

But as soon as I heard that I had to walk a long way in the mountains, I instantly cooled down, and I was really tired today. After a day in the car, and with so many things happening on the road, I really don't have the strength to walk at night again.

The Jinlong Daoist shamelessly followed me to my grandfather's house, and the purpose of his coming to the village was to find my grandfather. This liar monk, when did he meet his grandfather? It seems necessary to ask again when you are in good spirits.

The night was quiet, the evening breeze was slightly cool, and I fell asleep with exhaustion.
