The flame of the kerosene lamp was like a greedy tongue, constantly licking the handprint of the agreement, and soon licked it clean.

Watching the ashes of the agreement fall to the ground, Miss Xie's corpse asked, "Now you can let go of the hand on my neck, right?" ”

Daddy nodded and let go of his hand.

Luo Buzhai panicked: "Don't! She's going to be gone! Before, he tried to persuade his grandfather to let her burst, but now that the agreement has been signed, his attitude has also changed.

Grandpa retreated to Luo Buzhai's side.

Miss Xie's body was unharmed, and the rat-bitten hole in her neck was gone. The snow-white neck was like the first snow that fell in winter, without a single footprint, not even a single leaf.

Luo Buzhai looked at Miss Xie's corpse in surprise, and the imaginary scene of flesh and blood flying and stinking did not appear. He turned his head sideways and asked his father, "Will you fix your skin?" ”

Daddy smiled and didn't answer.

Luo Buzhai was relieved of Miss Xie's corpse, but he was worried about his father's marriage, and asked Miss Xie's corpse and his father: "Your agreement has been signed, but what about your marriage now?" ”

"Yes." Daddy replied briefly.

"Nope." Miss Xie's corpse immediately said, "I promised my parents to marry before, because I didn't want them to doubt my identity. What I originally thought was that after getting married, I would use the corpse qi in my body to invade the other party when I was in the cave room, so that he would fall ill. In the future, more corpse qi will be released, so that my man's illness will deepen day by day and he will die. In this way, I will be able to become a widow and continue my cultivation in peace, protecting my soul from being discovered by others. Ma Xiucai, do you want to get sick and die of corpse gas? ”

Grandpa was silent. The father has lost an eldest son who unfortunately died after winning the list, and if the younger son dies of illness after getting married, this will be too hard. This is all great joy and great sorrow, and my father will definitely not be able to bear it. But now that I have just signed an agreement with Miss Xie's corpse, it would be too unkind to leave her alone.

Miss Xie's corpse looked at her grandfather and said with a smile: "You are a benevolent and righteous person, I can't do unkind things to you." What's more, we just signed an agreement, I promised not to do evil again, I can't hurt you. Let's cancel the engagement. If you tell my father tomorrow that the marriage contract is canceled, you will say that you don't like me. ”

Luo Buzhai nodded beside him and said, "It seems that this is the only way." ”

Grandpa shook his head and said, "No." If I don't like you, it will ruin your reputation. A woman's reputation is important, and even if you don't value it, your parents will. Why don't you say to your father that you're not happy with me. It just so happened that my father was seen by your father when I went to your room today, so it makes sense for you to say something like this, and your father will understand. ”

Miss Xie's corpse said, "This will ruin your reputation." ”

Grandpa smiled and said, "It's out of the way." ”

Luo Buzhai saw the two of them letting go and sighed: "Hey, if you weren't parasitic grass parasitizing on the corpse, this marriage would be the best." The two of you are humble to each other now, and if you really tie the knot, then you can pay it back! ”

The corpse gas in the room suddenly became less viscous, and the flame of the kerosene lamp jumped.

That night, the three of them agreed to unify their voices and cancel the marriage the next day.

After the discussion, Miss Xie's body was going back to the boudoir.

Daddy said, "Don't worry. I heard you say that it is very difficult to dodge the lightning tribulation, and I can tell you a good way to dodge the lightning tribulation. ”

Luo Buzhai and Miss Xie's bodies were very surprised.

"Young Master Ma, you have never experienced the process of other beings cultivating to adulthood, how do you know the way to dodge the Thunder Tribulation?" Luo Buzhai asked.

Miss Xie's corpse's eyes flickered, and she had the same question.

Grandpa said: "But I can't tell you for the time being, and when I see that you are indeed no longer harmful, I will tell you this kind of trick." ”

"Okay." Although Miss Xie's corpse was suspicious, she still answered her father with great conviction.

Miss Xie's body got up and walked out the door.

When he walked to the door, Grandpa suddenly asked, "I take the liberty of asking, did you take a name before parasitizing Miss Xie's corpse?" ”

Miss Xie's corpse shook its head.

"Then I'll give you a name."

Miss Xie's corpse nodded.

"The road is more keen, and it is not added because of millet. You can call it Xiaomi. Daddy said.

Miss Xie's corpse smiled and chanted this poem: "I was sitting on a landscape addiction in my life, and the mountains are as sweet as honey. The ancient trees are smoky and black, and the sunset on the distant mountains is sharp. The danger is only the wanderer's concern, and the tranquility is enough to comfort the old man. The road is more tangible, and it is not added because of millet. It's a good poem. After I became enlightened, I used to cook on the branches of trees to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers. Thank you Xiaomi, I love the name. With that, she drifted away.

Grandpa and Luo Buzhai returned to the house.

Luo Buzhai stared at the jumping lights for a while, and suddenly grabbed his grandfather and said, "In the boudoir, didn't you let your husband marry after taking his name?" You just named her Xie Xiaomi, but you want to cancel the marriage contract tomorrow, this ......"

Grandpa was also stunned for a moment and said, "Yes." I forgot I couldn't name her! ”

"However, since she agreed, does it mean that she has a heart......" Luo Buzhai looked at his father with strange eyes.

Grandpa hurriedly said: "Then I'll talk to her tomorrow and tell her not to use this name." ”

"Forget it. After you cancel your engagement this time, I don't think she will marry anyone else. Since she agreed to use your name, she probably plans to do the same. Luo Buzhai was relieved and lay down on the bed. Tonight has changed dramatically. We thought we could take her, but we almost killed her. Just when I thought I was going to die, you turned the tide again. I now feel like I've died once. ”

Luo Buzhai let out a long breath.

After hearing Luo Buzhai say that he felt that he had died once, his father couldn't help laughing.

Luo Buzhai turned his head and said, "What are you laughing at?" I thought I was going to die. ”

Grandpa laughed for a while and said, "It's nothing, I also think tonight is very thrilling." Thankfully, your bamboo slipper appeared in time to hear my imitation of a mouse, otherwise we would have really been finished. Where did it go? We have to thank it for saving lives. ”

Luo Buzhai pointed to the beam and said, "It has been waiting on the beam for a long time, waiting for you to smoke." Its addiction to cigarettes is even greater than yours. ”

Grandpa glanced at the beam, and sure enough, the bamboo slipper was lying on the beam, and his two eyes were bright. Daddy took out his cigarette and started smoking. He smoked a cigarette and said, "Mr. Luo, do you know why Miss Xie was able to successfully cultivate from a parasitic grass? ”

Luo Buzhai said: "Because of that Zen poem? ”

Grandpa shook his head, lit the cigarette, took a puff, and said, "Definitely." Poems are just words and punctuation. Only when other beings experience profound emotions can they succeed in cultivating. This emotion may be compassion for all things, or it may be contempt for all beings, or it may be that everything is empty. When small beings experience big emotions, they have Buddha nature. With Buddha-nature, there is spiritual wisdom. ”

The bamboo slippers on the beams of the house are smoky and smoky.

Luo Buzhai said disapprerovingly: "Then you should tell me, what kind of emotions did this bamboo slipper experience in your smoke?" Is this emotion beneficial to its practice? ”

Grandpa smiled: "Then you can only know if you ask it." ”

Luo Buzhai didn't feel sleepy, and after tossing and turning in bed several times, he finally couldn't help but ask his father again: "You taught me the trick of catching chickens when you were in Radish Village, and I know that you have many other tips." How did you make Xie Xiaomi's neck recover so quickly just now? Also, do you really know how to dodge the lightning tribulation? If you leak the method of avoiding the Thunder Tribulation, how many elves and ghosts in the world who are eager to succeed in cultivation will reach the realm of cultivating adults according to this method? I'm afraid this will cause chaos in the Six Realms, right? ”

Grandpa laughed and said, "The truth in the world is true and false, false and true, true is considered false, and false is considered true." Even if I tell the truth, in the midst of so many falsehoods, who knows if I say it is true? Even if I tell a lie, in a world where so many people are in the same cloud, there are people who take it as true. Therefore, it is not up to me whether what I say is true or false, but whether the obedient person believes it or not. ”

Grandpa took a puff of cigarette and continued: "Whether Miss Xie has a wound on her body or not is not whether it is real, but whether she believes that it is. The way to avoid the lightning tribulation is not to really exist, but to whether she really believes it. Believe in it, but don't believe in it. ”

Luo Buzhai looked at the smoke spit out by his grandfather, and felt that his father's words were even more ethereal than these smokes. But although it is ethereal, it is real in front of us. Luo Buzhai reached out to grab the wisps of smoke, and the smoke easily avoided the fingers of his palms, making him scratch empty.

Later, when I listened to my grandfather tell about this past, I asked my grandfather if Xie Xiaomi's neck had a wound at that time. My grandfather also said he didn't know. I asked my grandfather again if he really knew how to dodge the thunderstorm. To my surprise, my grandfather said that there was really this method, and my grandfather not only knew about it, but also told my grandfather about it.

I was ecstatic and hurriedly asked my grandfather how he could escape the thunderstorm.

I thought that the Waild would refuse to answer me because it was not appropriate to say it casually.

Unexpectedly, my grandfather told me briskly.

My grandfather led me to the chicken coop. There is a broken basket on top of the chicken coop, the top half of the basket was sawn off by my grandfather, and the bottom of the basket is covered with a layer of straw. A hen sits on more than a dozen eggs and incubates them with peace of mind. When the hen saw me approaching my grandfather, she tilted her head and looked at us.

Grandpa pointed to the hen and said, "Here's the trick to dodging the thunderstorm." ”

I looked at the hen for a long time, but I couldn't see anything famous.

"It's hatching chicks, and now it's not thundering, and it's not making any strange moves." I said to my grandfather.

Grandpa said, "Think again." ”
