Chapter 1 Folk Masters?
I closed the gate of the courtyard, and then handed over the key to the courtyard to a staff member, who had lived here for several years, and was about to leave, only to find that I was actually a little reluctant to go to Beijing. (You can find this site)
Qin Huai followed me, helped me carry a bag of luggage, and said, "Chengyi, wait for me in Sichuan, and when my brother finishes some things, I'll come to you." ”
"Don't you do this, then your grandfather knows that you are going to wander with me, and you can't smoke me?" I said casually that in my heart, I really decided to live alone for three years and face this society alone, rather than having to be around anyone.
"You mean, you haven't decided on a place to stay yet?" Qin Huai raised his eyebrows and asked.
"yes, I don't know what I can do, how do I decide where to stay?" As soon as I finished saying this, there was scattered light snow in the sky, yes, time flies, when I finished dealing with some chores, I unknowingly have passed more than 2 months, from the end of August to the middle of November, Beijing has entered the early winter, watching the snowflakes fall, I only noticed.
In fact, it's not too difficult to live alone, isn't it like this for more than two months?
I was in a daze, and I didn't hear what Qin Huai said next to me, until Qin Huai called me: "I said Chengyi, you really don't think about it?" I reacted, "What are you thinking about?" ”
"Consider staying in Beijing, staying in our department. You know that you have also made meritorious contributions to the matter of the old village chief, plus the relationship between your master and me," Qin Huai said seriously.
"No, at least not yet. Don't worry about me, really, you see, isn't it more than two months? "I can't use Dao techniques in vain, this is what Master has given me. So, what am I going to do in that department? Like Qinhuai, be a civilian? It's just that I didn't tell Qin Huai about this, and if Master believed it, I just wanted to put it in my heart.
At this time, I had already walked out of the alley, and I took the luggage from Qin Huai's hand and didn't let him send it again.
This is what I told many people at the beginning, after all, for so many years, I also have a lot of friends in Beijing, I am leaving, naturally someone will come to send, but I have experienced too many partings since I was a child, and I don't want to touch them anymore, so I refused them all.
Only Qinhuai, he begged to come and give me a ride, but I also insisted on only letting him send him to the mouth of the alley, parting, I don't want to face it again in my life!! Is this also what a child's life must go through? Lonely!
Qin Huai still wanted to say something, but I had already taken the luggage, waved to Qin Huai, and walked away without looking back, there were scattered snowflakes floating in the sky, this time I forced down the desolation in my heart, I think loneliness is also something that everyone must face when they grow up, although I faced it a little earlier, and left home when I was young.
But if that's the case, shouldn't I have adapted earlier? Oh, it still hurts, this time I say goodbye to a life and some friends.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Because of the money, I only bought a hard seat ticket, in the train 'boom' forward sound, watching the crowd lively, I ripped off my hat, and closed myself again, I found that because of too many partings, I was already afraid of contact with too many people, because too many feelings can not be put down, and I am easy to be sentimental, what is wrong with this?
A few strangers next to me had already become one, blowing nonsense from all over the world, exchanging food, playing cards, and I was alone, out of place
Their hilarity is theirs, me? Maybe in the end, it's just one person after all! Leaving home, leaving friends, and Master leaving, is it a sign of my fate?
Thinking about it, a little bored, I walked to the junction of the train and lit a cigarette, and the passages along the way were crowded, and through these frictions and contacts, I felt that I had the feeling of being in the world.
It's been more than two months, and I've not thought about going back to Sichuan and my parents right away, but I don't think I've had the courage to put in a new life, so I've been living in a courtyard.
Every day, I practiced, studied the Taoist books left by the master, and then bought vegetables, cooked, and slept, and lived a somewhat closed life, and I didn't even have much contact with my friends, because I knew that I was about to leave, so I didn't want to add new sadness.
In this way, after thinking that I had adapted, I went to Uncle Master once and asked him to help contact some staff and help me transport some important things back to Sichuan.
But helplessly, this time Uncle Master was not there, saying that he was going to leave for half a year, and in the end, it was Brother Senior Brother who helped me do these things.
After the things were shipped back to Sichuan, I stayed for another week before I returned the courtyard and left.
Originally, I borrowed 500 yuan from Qinhuai, and I lasted for a month, but I couldn't hold it anymore, so I borrowed a little more, and now I have borrowed 3,000 yuan from Qinhuai one after another, after all, when I go home, I can't go back to see my parents empty-handed, right?
Master left me everything, but he didn't leave me a penny, thinking of this, I feel a little bitter in my heart, is this making money the first step for me to face life? Is there anyone like me? As soon as I left my own support for more than 2 months, I owed 3,000 yuan?
Hehe, Chen Chengyi, you are really poor enough! Thinking like this, the smoke also came to an end.
When I returned to my seat, I found that the original window seat was sat by someone else, it was a buddy who was originally sitting next to me, and when I came back, the buddy said to me embarrassedly: "Dude, I have some motion sickness, can I sit here?" ”
He spoke Mandarin, but there was a strong Sichuan accent in his accent, which I felt a little cordial, and I didn't plan to care about it, so I smiled in a friendly and silent way, and then sat down in his original place.
Maybe it was because I was embarrassed, but after I sat down, the guy took out a bottle of Jianlibao and handed it to me very enthusiastically, saying, "Come to a bottle?" ”
But I don't like to accept other people's things very much, and because I avoid cause and effect to the point of being extremely careful, I refuse in Sichuan: "I'm not thirsty, thank you." ”
"You're also from Sichuan?" That dude was a little surprised.
But I didn't mean to say anything more, nodded kindly, and then pretended to be very tired, tore off my hat, and pretended to sleep.
I guess my coldness is a little too obvious, and the buddy doesn't have much to say, continue to brag with others, I think about my own thoughts alone, thinking about where the master will be, thinking about Uncle Hui's injury, thinking about where Brother Sheng will be, what is that purple plant, and does it have anything to do with the formation of a corpse breeding ground in the south? I don't feel like time is sad.
But at this moment, the Sichuan buddy who sat in my place, the words he inadvertently reached my ears, but they caught my attention, and he said loudly: "I didn't lie, my mother-in-law (grandma) really knows some Gu techniques!" ”
Folk masters? I suddenly became a little interested, and my heart was tied to Miao Jiang, so I began to listen to my ears attentively.
"Gu art? What's that? Sounds like a hanging? ”
"You're not bragging, are you? I do know some tricks, and it's all witch stuff. ”
The people around obviously want to hear something new, but they definitely won't really believe it, everyone on the train is a short acquaintance, who can really believe whom?
"I knew you didn't believe it! Who said that Gu magic was done by witches? You don't understand this, do you? The guy continued to use Trump to blow to the people around him, but the topic obviously aroused everyone's interest, and no one tried to refute him.
Just urged him to hurry up, this guy was proud, and then said: "My mother-in-law is not from Sichuan, she married to Sichuan later, do you know where my mother-in-law is from?" It's a person from Miao Village in Xiangxi! Where is Miaojiang? It's in Xiangxi, Yunnan. It's not bragging, the people in Miao Village more or less know some Gu techniques, I didn't know it before, just when I was a child, once"
That buddy blew it open, but I felt unreliable when I listened to it, who said that the people in Miao Village must know Gu arts? You must know that most of the Miao people have been sinicized now, even if there is no sinicization, from ancient times to the present, there are not many Gu Miao, mysterious, some Gu Miao villages don't even come into contact with other villages, how did they become Miao villagers who know Gu art?
So, I thought that guy was bragging, so I didn't pay much attention to it, listening to him blowing, but I was a little dazed and wanted to sleep.
But his next sentence caught my attention: "Didn't I offend that person and have a stomachache all night?" And then my mother-in-law saw it, and she didn't know what herbs she gave me, and then guess I had diarrhea the next day, and what did I pull out? You don't believe it, pull out a strange bug, I've never seen it before. My mother-in-law said that it was a worm cultivated by the Gu man himself, but the technique was not very clever, hum, the Gu was hidden in the nail cover. ”
Yes, it was the last sentence that caught my attention, in the nail cover. If you are not a knowledgeable person, you will never be able to say this.
You know, although I don't play Gu, I'm like Ruyue, Grandma Ling Qing is a professional, but I've more or less heard them talk about some things that can be circulated, one of which is to go to Miao Village, and see people with dirty nails, stay away, because the Gu is hidden in the nail cover, mostly insect eggs, and with a flick, it will be in what you eat, and if you are smart, you will directly play it in your nose.
This is indeed just a very superficial Gu technique, and this kind of Gu is not difficult, because that kind of worm generally dies quickly, and many insect eggs may not be effective, so they are melted by stomach acid, but is this buddy's mother-in-law really a knowledgeable person?
Thinking of this, I became a little interested, so I tore off my hat and asked the buddy in Sichuan: "Brother, do you know a lot?" Is your mother-in-law really from Miao Village? I've been to Xiangxi, which village does your mother-in-law belong to? ”
