Grandma appeared at the second uncle's house on the first day of the New Year, because the New Year went home to see, and then a paper man was burned on the grave next to it, my dad and my second uncle did not burn it when they were young, and it seemed that the person was thin, and grandma wanted to find the second uncle to ask two paper people to burn it to accompany her, just when I went to the second uncle's house to kowtow, grandma liked the little grandson, entangled me, and the old lady in the past took the child, and was eager to stuff all the delicious food into the mouth of her own child.

My grandmother is no exception, take candy to me to eat, but among those candies, not only the candy in my second uncle's house, but also some candy offered on other people's graves, she caught a lot of mixed together, I eat ghost food, eat the essence of candy, resulting in invisible food, plus contaminated with yin, young age, yin soul out of the body, the road I walked, is a particularly famous section of the road, called Huangquan Road, unfortunately I met two people looking for a substitute for the dead ghost, if it weren't for my grandmother and them desperately, I'm afraid I'll have to give my little life......

All of the above are what Zhang Qingshan told me, by the way, the Taoist priest is called Zhang Qingshan, according to him, he is a descendant of the Zhang family of the Heavenly Master's Mansion and belongs to the branch, if it weren't for his grandfather's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather...... He was very modest and gave up the position of Heavenly Master, and he is now Zhang Tianshi of the Heavenly Master's Mansion......

I don't believe Zhang Qingshan's words, because he is a little out of tune in our Northeast dialect, he said that he is a Taoist priest, but he is not taboo in wine and meat, and he is not allowed to say anything about the six whistles...... Still, I got along with him, because I was lonely, and since I escaped death, the people of the village hated me even more, and they stayed away from me even more, and when they saw me, they hid away like a ghost.

After I put on Zhang Qingshan's sachet, I can no longer see those dead people, but everyone is still afraid of me, no matter how to explain it, they all avoid me, only Zhang Qingshan does not hate me, and likes to tell me stories, in the half year when I was not in elementary school, I basically went to Zhang Qingshan every day, I wanted to learn how to draw with him, especially the weird symbols on the talisman he said, at first Zhang Qingshan just shook his head, and did not say agree or disagree, and finally was annoyed by me before agreeing to accept me as an apprentice, and asked me to bring two catties of soju to him the next dayas a gift for apprenticeship.

I went home and told my dad, my dad had no opinion, gave me two catties of corn liquor, packed it in a plastic pot, and the next morning I rushed to take the liquor to apprentice, a child who was more than six years old and less than seven years old, carrying two catties of liquor, that was also heavy enough, I was walking a breath, resting, and walked for almost an hour before coming to the mountain temple.

Although I am very tired, but the thought of being able to learn to draw the kind of symbols that look mysterious and magical, I am very excited, and my mind keeps coming to mind the scenes of those apprentices in the TV series, in my young head, the picture of apprenticeship should be like this, Zhang Qingshan changed into a new clothes, sat on a chair, very solemn, and then I knelt in front of him, kowtowed three times, shouted to meet the master, and put the wine aside.

Zhang Qingshan told me with a serious face, learn from his skills, and not do evil in the future, walk the rivers and lakes to do chivalrous deeds, and then give me a sword...... Lovingly touch my head, and the apprenticeship is complete.

What I didn't expect was that the picture I imagined didn't happen at all, and the process of apprenticeship was ......

I carried two catties of liquor to the mountain temple, but Zhang Qingshan was not in the temple, shouted a few voices and no one paid attention to me, ran out to find him, to the field he opened, the same no one, after I shouted a few times, Zhang Qingshan's voice came from the stream on the right: "Xiaowei, I'm here." ”

There is a particularly clear mountain stream behind the mountain temple, very shallow, it is also to the depth of the small belly, meandering from the top of the mountain to stay, the stream is clear, in the middle of the stream, there is a huge bluestone, on which all kinds of books are spread, are old ancient books, the page is opened, blown by the wind, the sound of the lala, Zhang Qingshan reclined on the bluestone, carrying a wine gourd in his left hand, looking at a book with his right hand, seeing the happy place and dancing twice, I ran towards him, he didn't even look at me, I ran close to the water, and saw the book clearly, My father taught me to read and write when I was three years old, so I could see very clearly that the cover was written on Jin Pingmei.

I didn't know that this was a strange book from ancient to modern times, so I climbed up the big bluestone and asked, "Master, what book do you read?" ”

"Good books, strange books, wonderful books, books that can understand the principles of all things in the universe, you wait for a while, and when I finish reading, we will talk about apprenticeship......"

Zhang Qingshan stared at the book, and when he was happy, he picked up the wine gourd next to him and drank it, after half a sound, there was no half drop of wine in the gourd, shook it a few times, poured the last drop into his mouth, sighed, put the wine gourd aside, put the golden bottle plum aside, and picked up a copy of the Lotus Sutra casually.

I waited next to me for a long time, and when I saw that he had changed the book again, I asked impatiently, "Master, when are we going to apprentice?" ”

Zhang Qingshan glanced at the Lotus Sutra a few times, threw it aside, sat up, and smiled at me, I thought he was going to take me seriously as an apprentice, but later I learned that the Lotus Sutra is not as beautiful as the golden vase. I saw Zhang Qingshan sitting up straight, and hurriedly said, "Master, I put the wine in the mountain temple for you, do I just kowtow to you now?" ”

"Don't worry, tell me first, what do you learn from me?"

"Paint, the talisman drawn by the master looks so good, I want to paint like that, it's amazing!"

Zhang Qingshan's face was a little not good-looking, and he coughed and said to me: "What I am saying to you now, it is difficult for you to understand, but you are Qingming's birthday, you have a heavy yin qi on your body, you can see yin and yang, and your understanding is not bad, um!" There's also a bit of literary temperament, I like to paint, and my qualifications are not bad, so it's nothing to accept you, but you have to remember. ”

"The talisman is not just a painting, but the Tao, the art of the talisman, ever-changing, it is the authentic sect of the Daomen, not only can subdue the demon and subdue the demon, the clouds and rain, pray for blessings and eliminate disasters, high depths, and even more immortal, when the old gentleman sent a letter to Guguan, his subordinate Xu Jia sued the old man, saying that he owed him wages, the old man said that you followed for more than 200 years, I gave you the Taixuan Qingsheng talisman, you can live forever, now you want to leave, tell me just that, why do you want to sue me? So he slapped Xu Jia, Xu Jia spit out a yellow talisman from his mouth, and then fell to the ground into a pile of dry bones. ”

"Yin Xi knew that Lao Jun was a god, knelt down and kowtowed to plead, Lao Jun threw the Taixuan Qingsheng Fu to Xu Jia, Xu Jia came to life in an instant, Yin Xi gave Xu Jia two million dollars and sent him away, it can be seen that the way of the talisman is also the way of immortality."

"The talisman is a carrier that injects the information of heaven, earth, man, and gods, and is the text of the gods, conveying the will of the gods, and can summon gods and impeachment ghosts. Subduing demons and suppressing demons, curing diseases and eliminating disasters, so as to command the ghosts and gods, so that all kinds of suffering in the world can be relieved, and thousands of wishes can be fulfilled. There are many types of spirit talismans, and their uses are quite extensive, which can be roughly divided into: blessing and good luck charms, town house charms, harmony charms, talisman talismans, fortune talismans, marriage talismans, human relationship talismans, evil spirit-dispelling charms, ghost slashing charms, healing charms, fetal charms, bone transformation charms, pain-relieving charms, ......"

"The usage of the charm is divided into 8 kinds, such as burning, wearing, pasting, eating, boiling, wiping, spraying, wiping, etc., of which in addition to pasting and wearing, the rest are used by fire......"

A child who is less than seven years old, if he can understand this, is he seeing a living ghost, I was confused, and I couldn't help asking: "Isn't the art of talisman just drawing on yellow paper?" Is it really as amazing as you say, master? Show me your hand and take a look! ”

Zhang Qingshan smiled, took out a crumpled yellow talisman from his broken robe, clamped it between his index and middle fingers, and said softly: "A talisman can draw a knife and cut off water!" The words fell, Huang Fu shot out from Zhang Qingshan's hand, the stream in front of the bluestone, one turned around, like a carp entering the water, relaxed and natural, the moment Huang Fu entered the water, the winding stream was actually separated into two places, the upper water still gathered, but it was blocked by an invisible barrier, and the downstream water gradually dried up.

I looked stupid, this is better than the tricks on TV, and I couldn't help but shout: "The master is very skilled." ”

Zhang Qingshan didn't look at me, and said loudly: "Fu can sail against the current!" The voice fell, the yellow fu went upstream, driving the water flow to turn upside down, I was dumbfounded, Zhang Qingshan was a little proud, his right hand pinched, pointed to the yellow fu in the stream, and said softly: "Can call the wind and rain, can shuttle through the nine skies!" ”

Zhang Qingshan's fingers flicked his fingertips, and the yellow fu shot straight into the sky from the water, flying higher and higher, like a cloud-piercing arrow, Zhang Qingshan's fingers bent lightly, and continued: "It can dispel diseases, kill demons, and drive away ghosts and ......serve gods."

I stared at the yellow talisman in the air, my face was flushed with excitement, and I slapped my hand vigorously and said: "Master is very good, not only can draw, but also can do tricks, I want to learn, learn to paint with you, learn tricks from you......"

Zhang Qingshan heard my words, poof! The sound of the old blood almost didn't spit out, staring at me, I didn't catch my breath, the talisman in the sky was like a defeated phoenix, losing its agility, fluttering and falling in the air like leaves. Zhang Qingshan picked it up with one hand, pinched the yellow fu, and his face was almost blue.

I'm young, and I don't know how to read people's faces, and I applauded excitedly: "The master is really good, the trick is so good-looking, teach me quickly, teach me quickly, I want to learn, learn the same as you, and also give my parents tricks to ......"

Zhang Qingshan's face turned blue and blue, he gasped a few times, and asked me through gritted teeth: "Do you really want to learn?" ”

"Learn!" I nodded firmly.

"Okay, then I'll teach you, now you meditate cross-legged like me, learn to breathe, and then go to see the white clouds in the sky, carefully observe the changes of the clouds, experience the changing trajectory, sit for two hours first, if you dare to move impatiently, Lao Tzu will beat you!"
