Chapter 35. Get into trouble
When I saw what he was carrying on his back, I was taken aback. Because I seem to have seen something like this somewhere, but I couldn't remember anything at the time. I vaguely remember that when I was still a master in my early years, a master from a mountain master's family came to my master for help, and at that time he also lifted his clothes, and his stomach was surrounded by a navel, and there was a circle of flesh moles, but I don't remember if I saw the scar at that time. The master also helped the master for a long time, and he didn't let me watch from the sidelines, and I don't know what happened to the master later.
In order not to put pressure on Hu Zongren's heart, I pretended to be calm and smiled and said to him, yo, these moles of yours are really chic, everyone has big moles on their chests, you have a long back, you are really not ordinary. Hu Zongren turned around, and then while getting dressed, he said, This is what happened this time, it's a long story. After getting dressed, he picked up the cigarette from the windowsill again, took a few puffs, and the smoke narrowed his eyes, and then we threw away the cigarette butts and walked back into the house.
Sitting on the sofa, everyone didn't eat the offal. Hu Zongren said to everyone, I have something on my back, it is not a spell, but it is also a knot, and I must break this knot step by step, and now I have failed one, and there are still 7 left. I think I'm not good at learning, but I'm not willing to hang up so inexplicably, and the reason why I didn't tell you is not because I'm arrogant, it's entirely because I care about everyone and don't want to let everyone be affected by my troubles.
When Fu Yunni heard Hu Zongren say this, she immediately picked up Hu Zongren's clothes, and then when she saw the eight flesh moles, she opened her mouth wide and covered her mouth with her hand, looking very surprised. Fu Yunni slapped Hu Zongren hard again, and asked anxiously, what is this? Who got it for you? Why don't you tell me! Hu Zongren said with a smile, I didn't tell you, you didn't see it yourself, who told you not to pick up my clothes for so long hahaha.
I admire Hu Zongren very much, he is still in the mood to joke at this time, I really can't do it. I asked him, tell me carefully, how did this thing come about, the relationship between the two of us, even if you don't let me join you, I will find it myself, you can do it.
Hu Zongren said to us, do you remember, at the end of July, we helped Granny Huang together but made a wish. Did I say it was about the kid who was hit and killed? He said yes, it was the case that Mr. Liu's daughter was ghosted. I nodded, and Hu Zongren continued, after that incident, didn't the old woman say that she wanted one of us to personally send the little girl's straw body back to Shaanxi, to see the old couple, and also fulfill the little girl's wish, didn't she want to go home. I said I remember that, and I remember what madness you did to a brute that day. Hu Zongren smiled and said, I didn't want to go at that time, because it was too far away, and I felt troublesome, but then I changed my mind when you said you would go, because I could go back to Chengdu and visit my master. After all, he is so old, and he has the same disease as Granny Huang, which is diabetes. And didn't I tell you at the time that I still have some personal matters of my own to deal with? When Hu Zongren said this, he pointed to his back, and said with a wry smile, look, this is the result of not being able to do anything about it.
Only then did I remember that it was rare for Hu Zongren to take the initiative to go out that day, and it turned out that he had gone to settle his personal grievances. But before that, except for a small amount of information about the Xuanyuan Society from him, he didn't tell me anything else, and as an outsider, I didn't want to ask more, and after a long time, I gradually didn't take this matter to heart. Hu Zongren went on to say that this is the case, before we went to handle the case of Mr. Liu's daughter that day, I received a call from my master, who asked very strangely on the phone, in short, he repeatedly asked me if I was uncomfortable and if anything strange happened to me. I wondered how a good master could suddenly shush at me. Hu Zongren said with a smile, don't look at my master when he saw you that time, he was serious like a master in the world, he is an out-and-out old naughty, otherwise the personality difference between me and him is too big, and this master and apprentice will not be long. Although I am used to hip-hop with my master, after all, I am a teacher, and my father died early, so in this world, I treat my master as my own father to a large extent.
I am deeply touched by this, but I am luckier than Hu Zongren, after I ran out of the house aimlessly, almost without any setbacks, I inexplicably worshipped a master, fortunately, my master is a good master, a good old man, although he is also a stern look on weekdays, but if you really want to be happy, it is more hilarious than me. However, I am different from Hu Zongren, his master is only an apprentice like him, and it is natural to teach him everything, and he can also treat him wholeheartedly. But I also have a senior sister, although the senior sister is a little rebellious and has caused a lot of trouble to the master, but despite this, she is still my master's favorite disciple. I'm a filler at best. Although I knew that it was wrong for me to think so, I knew in my heart that no matter how good I did, I would never be able to replace my senior sister's position in the master's mind.
Hu Zongren went on to say that at that time, I felt that something was wrong with the master, so I asked him if something had happened. The master was hesitant, but he told me that he had recently settled down and not to cause trouble, and the master knew my temper, so he would never tell me this for no reason, and the biggest weakness of the stinky old man was that he wouldn't lie at all. I smiled and said to Hu Zongren, the Taoist family has always valued integrity, do you think everyone is like you, fooling around all day long? Hu Zongren went on to say, at that moment he asked Xing Yazi vigorously, and when he said later, he was even a little angry, and said to Xing Yazi, if you don't tell me, I will rush back to Chengdu overnight, and watch you every day to ask, I am still making some noise in Chengdu, see what you do!
So that's why I've always played well with Hu Zongren, and when you meet a madman, the best way for you to do it is to pretend to be a fool. Hu Zongren made a name for himself in Chengdu, and as soon as he said this, Xing Yazi was really worried that his crazy apprentice would really do such a thing, so he told Hu Zongren what happened.
Hu Zongren said that Master Xing Yazi took Hu Zongren with him in his early years and broke away from the Xuanyuan Society, because he was very stubborn when he left, so it caused dissatisfaction among many other masters of the same generation as Master Xing Yazi. As a branch of Taoism, the Yaoshan faction has other disciples and grandchildren in the Xuanyuan Society in addition to Xing Yazi and Hu Zongren. As soon as the two of them left like this, it was very embarrassing to let other people stay inside, and some of them were thick-skinned, so they pretended not to know the Tao and stayed, and most of the rest also left this organization, so in the Xuanyuan Society, an organization exclusive to Taoism, their Yaoshan faction became an alternative, this kind of alternative, as if they wanted to break away from Taoism and deceive their teachers and destroy their ancestors.
The temper of the Taoist priest is inherently stinky, of course I mean most of them. The withdrawal of the Yaoshan faction, for them, is like raising a child with all their hard work, but in the end they were eloped by others. I didn't get any benefits, and I took care of the childcare fees for so many years. Of course, this metaphor may be a bit inappropriate, but that's pretty much it. So I came to Master Xing Yazi several times to lobby, hoping that they could take into account the overall situation and return to the Xuanyuan Society. Master Xing Yazi is a relatively senior of the Yaoshan faction who is still alive, and he can basically represent the entire Yaoshan faction when he speaks, but Xing Yazi said that he is used to being idle, and he has never liked to compare himself with anyone. The implication is that I feel that this organization likes to be competitive and has no interest in getting involved.
Hu Zongren said that although the elders of the Xuanyuan Society were not happy with the master's approach, they also respected the master's reputation, and the master had not asked about the affairs of the rivers and lakes for many years, so it was not difficult for him. Until I quit, I continued to mix in this industry, and I could have been low-key to mix it, and last year I had a quarrel with people who had no way, so that everyone in my master circle in Chengdu knew the Tao, and I often followed my master to not bird them, and other disciples of my generation disobeyed me, so it was inevitable to say something to sow discord in the ears of my own master, so the people of the Xuanyuan Society decided, since I was in this line, I did not enter the Xuanyuan Society, and robbed them of a lot of business on the road, so I had to try me, Look at how many pounds and taels I have.
When Hu Zongren said this, he was very aggrieved. In fact, I am also quite aggrieved for him, this guy is simply because of his unruly personality to make enemies, and it is absolutely right for apprentices to follow the master, so in this matter, he has become an inexplicable person who lies on the gun.
Hu Zongren said that after the master told him these things at that time, it really caused his brain to short-circuit again, and he was furious all of a sudden. He felt that the other party was simply deceiving people too much, if the seniors of other sects wanted to test themselves, at least they had to say hello to themselves first, so they did it in the shadows, and the most annoying thing was that they didn't take Master Xing Yazi in their eyes at all. So he didn't show it to Xing Yazi on the phone at that time, but a few days later took Granny Huang's straw man, went directly from Chongqing to Shaanxi, and went to Chengdu on the way back, and found an old guy from the Xuanyuan Club in Chengdu.
I was speechless because I felt like he was a pig. Fu Yunni also scolded him and said, you treasure, what does it mean for you to be quick for a while? You're comfortable, people hate you, and now they're doing something to you, look, you can't get out if you want to, right?
Hu Zongren sighed first, and then the arrogance came up again, he said, if you provoke it, you will provoke it, so what, if you really want to kill me, Lao Tzu will not let him go if he becomes a ghost. I hurriedly calmed his emotions, and I said don't worry, I will personally tie you up and send you on your way when you become a ghost. Then I asked him, do you know what you are doing with this thing on your back?
He said Zhilu Dao, this is the Eight Pole Seal.
