The roommate was taken aback, then turned from surprise to laughter, and said, "You are really joking!" I'm here for the same purpose as you, just to see the scenery, not to go into the temple and become a monk! Besides, my family is well-off, and I am going to marry the most beautiful girl in our county as a wife when I go back, how can I be a monk? ”

Grandpa was confident, and he didn't mean to joke: "You won't have a family." You will definitely become a monk. Soon after, you'll come back here with the Green Lantern Ancient Wall as your companion. ”

The roommate was annoyed and slapped the table and said, "Are you cursing me?" ”

"Not a curse. I learned about reincarnation the other day, and I can predict the future. ”

The roommate was even more angry and shouted: "Haven't you been here during the day these days? I shared a room with you, and I didn't see you reading any strange books at night. Where did you learn what size reincarnation? I think you're a gentleman, and I think you've read a lot of sage books. I didn't expect you to lie to people and not to type drafts! Lies come as soon as they open their mouths! ”

Grandpa knew that he had lost his words and was busy apologizing.

Fortunately, the roommate was magnanimous, and when he saw his grandfather admit his mistake, he no longer pursued it.

After a while, the roommate actually admitted that he came to Mount Emei this time to find a source for himself. His family background is really good, but his childhood sweetheart, who is about to start, suddenly fell seriously ill and died. He was discouraged and deliberately escaped into the empty door.

"Do you know how to look?" The roommate asked.

Daddy shook his head and nodded again.

The roommate smiled wryly.

Before going to bed, Grandpa found a few pieces of wood that the monk had chopped and stacked them on the threshold. Wood is slightly shorter than the threshold, and it is easy to scatter when placed on the threshold, and it is not easy to fix it with nails. Grandpa had a flash of inspiration, found a few wooden blocks and inserted them in the gap between the door frame and the wood, and then hit the wooden blocks with the wood, so that the two ends of the wood were against each other and were not easy to scatter.

After raising the threshold, my father suddenly remembered what he had seen at the temple in Nyingchi, Tibet. It turns out that the wooden blocks in those crevices are not useless!

Facing the heightened threshold, Grandpa froze. If you were really an ascetic in your previous life, then your thoughts at this moment coincide with your previous life, and you will end up on the same path! Could this be what the monk of the sea said about the past, which is the future?

The roommate saw that his father had raised the threshold very high, and asked curiously, "Why are you making the threshold so high?" ”

"There's a weak man chasing me."

"Zombies over there in Tibet?" The roommate is from Sichuan, and Sichuan borders Tibet, so it's not unusual for him to know what a weak man is.

"Yes."

"Then you should go to Munigou."

"What are you doing in Munigou?"

"There is a second sea in the north of Munigou, and there is a boiling pearl lake in the southwest of the second sea, which is said to be a bathing pool created by the Nine Heavens Fairy boiling bead refining spring. When you take a bath there, it's like being reborn. The weak man will not recognize you, and he will not be able to find you. The roommate said.

"Really?"

The roommate sighed and said, "You know that I am a disheartened person who is about to become a monk, what else am I lying to you for?" But I've heard people say that, too.,I don't know if it's really unrecognizable to the weak man.。 ”

"Thank you for your advice. Whether it's true or not, I'm going to give it a try. ”

"I think it's kind of credible. The lake is actually a hot spring with a high sulfur content, and the temperature is relatively high. It is estimated that after the human skin has been washed with sulfur, there is a faint smell of sulfur, which masks the previous smell. In this case, it will be difficult for zombies to tell. Also, isn't sulfur commonly used by Taoist priests when they exorcise evil spirits or make pills? Maybe the zombies themselves are afraid of brimstone. The roommate said.

"Looks like you're familiar with brimstone."

The man smiled bitterly and said, "I used to go to a church school founded by foreigners, and I didn't read the Four Books and the Five Classics, but I learned some simple chemistry. If the marriage went well, my family originally planned to let me go abroad for further study after I got married. ”

At that time, it was no longer uncommon for foreigners to be active in China, and church schools and even industrial schools were established in some places. Although the number of these schools is very small, more and more people are enrolled in such schools. The foreigner school is like a spark, but it already has an inextinguishable tendency to burn the prairies.

Before my grandfather was born, the Qing Dynasty government had begun to send foreign students abroad, and some Jinshi were also sent abroad to learn the science and technology of foreigners. Many children from wealthy families go directly to foreign church schools and no longer enter private schools.

Soon after my grandfather left Mount Emei, the imperial court announced the cancellation of the imperial examination. The official selection system, which had been used by the feudal dynasty for more than 1,300 years, was abolished.

After hearing the news, my father's father seemed to have been relieved of his heart disease that had been depressed for many years, and asked someone to bring a message to my grandfather, who was traveling abroad, hoping that he would return to Thrush Village by Dongting Lake as soon as possible.

After listening to the words of the would-be monk, my father canceled his plan to go home and went to Aba Prefecture in Sichuan again, where Munigou is located.

This time I went to Munigou to open my father's eyes again, and he almost thought that he could completely get rid of the weak king. But in the end, this hope suddenly burst when it rose to its highest point, like the geothermal bubbles that bubbled out of the ground in the Munigou Boiling Pearl Lake.

As soon as he arrived in Munigou, his father met a strange person. The man came to boil Zhuhu Lake every day and soaked more than a dozen crockpots in the hot springs. As soon as the crockpots entered the hot spring, they trembled as if they were alive, as if they had been burned by the hot spring, and they wanted to escape from his hands. The man held the crockpot tightly and kept the mouth below the water's surface.

Grandpa watched the man immersed in the crockpot, just as I was surprised when I saw my grandfather put millet into a purple sand teacup many years later.

The man was dressed as a Qiang person, but he was familiar with Chinese, and at first glance he was not a simple character who traveled south and north. Grandpa initially thought that the person was a Miao person, but in his opinion, there was really no difference in the dress of Miao and Qiang people. Later, I learned that in addition to the Tibetans in this place, it was the Qiang people, and my grandfather knew that the person was a Qiang people.

Grandpa wanted to find out the secret of the man's crockpot, so he asked someone to inquire.

As soon as I inquired, I learned that the person was the famous local "Abbash". "Abbaxu" means shaman in the Qiang language. The Qiang people do not have religious organizations and temples, and when they encounter more evil things, they will basically ask "Abbaxu" to solve them. In the Qiang village, all the mountain sacrifices, crown ceremony, vows, soothing the nerves and exorcising ghosts, curing diseases, unexpected filth, summoning spirits, eliminating disasters, watching feng shui, and even repairing houses and building houses, men and women marrying, naming newborns, and super-undead, etc., must invite "Abba Xu" to preside, so his status in the Qiang people is relatively high.

Daddy asks why Abba Xu's crockpot is shaking.

Others don't know.

Grandpa asked again if someone was chased by a weak man, could Abba Xu solve it.

Others say that all things related to ghosts have not yet been solved by Abba Xu.

Daddy was pleasantly surprised. Coming here to soak in the sulfur hot springs is just a fluke, and it is uncertain whether it can make the weak man unable to recognize it. But if Abba Xu can help solve the problem once and for all, it will be great.

Grandpa secretly observed Abba Xu's face, but he couldn't see why. My grandfather once said in the words taught by my grandfather that some people are easy to look at, one by one. Some people have ugly faces and may be biased. And the physiognomy of a few people is extremely ugly, and if it is not combined with the palmistry or even the bone physiognomy, it is impossible to predict.

To use a bad analogy, this fortune telling prediction is like a thief stealing something. A clever thief only needs to look at what you are wearing to know whether you have any money, whether it is worth stealing, whether your money is hidden in your chest or hem or in your trouser pocket or on the bottom of your foot, or whether it is sewn in a more secret place. Born in the world, the password of human destiny is hidden in the face and palmistry. The fortune teller is to judge your future from these aspects, and to peek out the information that the heavens have deliberately hidden.

Of course, some people are born with few natural opportunities for face leakage, but some people will hide.

Abdash clearly falls into the latter category.

Daddy plans to meet with Abba in person.

After inquiry, Grandpa learned that Abba Xu lived in Wazige, which means radish in the Qiang language. Outsiders call that place a radish village.

Before entering the radish village, my father looked down from a high place and found that the shape of the village was like a fish. After entering the village, my father found that the gate of the radish village was quite special, with a sun-shaped pattern and white stones on the door. Among them, the white stone can be seen on the roofs of every house in the radish village.

Grandpa didn't understand the Qiang language, so when he saw someone, he asked, "Abba Xu?" Abba? ”

The people in the stockade showed him the way.

Grandpa stood outside a wall made of yellow mud, and at this moment, a man came out of the wall. That person was Abba Xu, who Daddy was looking for.

"Are you looking for me?" Abba Xu asked in Chinese.

Grandpa was surprised: "How do you know?" ”

Abba Xu asked his grandfather in the direction of the gate and replied, "I knew before you entered the gate of the village." ”

"Did anyone give you a message?" Daddy asked.

"Takeyoko told me." Abba Xu stretched out his palm, and a small mouse hid in his palm.

"Mouse?"

Abba Xu nodded, and with a flip of his palm, the little mouse fell to the ground, rolled out like a small ball, and then suddenly stretched out its limbs, and suddenly slipped away.

The so-called rats cross the street, and everyone shouts and beats. This is especially true among the Qiang. Grandpa came to Munigou for only a few days, and he knew that the Qiang people were particularly disgusted with the bamboo slip and regarded it as a bad thing, just as the Han people regarded the crow as a bad thing. However, as Abba Xu, he kept an hoodoo to ventilate him.

So, Grandpa asked him puzzledly: "Abba Xu, how can you raise such a hoodoo thing?" ”

A smile broke out on half of Abba's face, and half of his face was stiff, and he said, "If you want to control them, you have to borrow their own power." It's the same with exorcism. I don't have to do it myself, I have my own demons to deal with its kind. That's why I can do things that other wizards can't. ”

"I see!" Grandpa suddenly realized.

Abba Xu asked, "You came to me for something similar, right?" ”

Grandpa nodded and said, "If you have nothing to do, you will go to the Three Treasures Palace." When I was in Nyingchi, I was looked at by the weak Lang King, and it is said that it will not let go of anyone it has seen, and it will always track the person it has seen, and will kill him as soon as there is a suitable opportunity. I'm coming to you to ask if you can get me rid of the weak king. ”

Abba Xu looked embarrassed.
