Chapter 3 Taoyu
After making tea, the fat man and I carefully brought it to the two masters.
Uncle Qingsong asked us to sit down and explain to him what was going on.
I told the story of what happened in the studio building from Yao Yirong to that night, and Uncle Qingsong frowned after hearing it: "Are you really sure it's the insect master?" ”
I nodded and confirmed again: "It is recorded in ancient books that the soul is used to raise Gu, and when the Gu King comes out, he will devour the Lord of Life first. These two are the characteristics of insect breeders
After getting my confirmation, Uncle Qingsong raised his eyebrows, and said to himself with a solemn expression: "Could it be him?" ”
Who he is, we don't know. But when I saw Uncle Qing Song cast his puzzled eyes on the seventh master, the fat man and I also cast inquiring eyes at Yang Qiye.
In the face of everyone's inquiries, Yang Qiye held his cheeks and thought for a long time, and shook his head with the same solemn expression.
"It can't be him, although he survived that battle thirty years ago, he was seriously wounded when he fled, and he shouldn't be able to survive for long."
"Who is he?" The fat man couldn't help the doubts in his heart and blurted out.
Yang Qiye and Uncle Qing Song glared at the fat man at the same time, and said in unison: "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask." ”
The tone of the two was unanimous, as if some shocking secret was hidden from us. After discussing this matter, the two of them told me and the fat man a word, if the Yao family's affairs can be mixed up, they will not be reconciled, so as not to get into trouble.
The mysterious appearance of the god really makes us scratch our heads, and at the same time, it also makes me more curious about the Yao family in my heart, I have heard that the profession of insect master was eliminated in Guizhou by the ploughshare witch family, the Gu master, and the Chenzhou corpse chasing faction. And the spell that Yao Stationery gave me that day just shows that the Yao family is one of the successors of the Plowshare Witch family. Although I don't know if it is a white witch or a black witch, I expect that in that battle to annihilate the insect master, there must be the shadow of the Yao family in it.
Just when I was wandering around the world and thinking wildly, I suddenly heard Yang Qiye say such a sentence.
"I came this time, in addition to visiting Xia Xiaoqiang, I also want to tell you that I want to take him as an apprentice."
Yang Qiye's words made everyone really stunned for a long time, and then Uncle Qingsong slapped the table, glared at him angrily and said, "Old horseman, what do you mean by this, are you coming to rob my son openly?" ”
Facing Uncle Qingsong's questioning, Yang Qiye did not quarrel with him this time, but was silent for a while, looked at Uncle Qingsong and said word by word: "I am serious, although I am similar to what you have learned." But you have to admit that your medical skills are not as good as mine. Master did not pass on the Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate and the Medicine King Rune to you. ”
Yang Qiye paused for a while and said hoarsely: "Even if you don't think about Xiaoqiang, you have to think about our Huaguang lineage." Could it be that the medical skills of the five techniques will be lost in our generation? ”
Uncle Qingsong was silent, closed his eyes and thought for a long time before he opened his eyes and looked at Yang Qiye
"Have you not taken in apprentices for so many years?" Green Pine asked suspiciously
Yang Qiye shook his head and said with a smile: "I wanted to accept it, but I didn't let me meet the right one at all." Some of them seem to be sincere to the Tao on the surface, but to put it bluntly, they are just pretentious, without the slightest heart towards the Tao. ”
"Think about it first, there's no rush in this matter." After finishing speaking, Yang Qiye waved his hand.
Uncle Qingsong paused for a while, glanced at the fat man, and then turned his gaze to Yang Qiye
"Okay, I promise you." Uncle Qing Song pondered for a while, and had made a decision
In this way, Yang Qiye's acceptance of the fat man as an apprentice has become an ironclad matter. Until they finalized the matter, the fat man still couldn't get back to his senses.
"Well, don't you have to ask my opinion?" The fat man held his mouth and complained
"Oh, aren't you happy?" Yang Qiye looked at the fat man and smiled lightly and asked
It was this slight smile, but the fat man was frightened and changed his words instantly, and nodded quickly like a chicken pecking rice: "I'm willing, very happy." In order to show his sincerity, the fat man pressed his right hand on his lungs and repeated in an accentuated tone: "This is from the bottom of my heart, and I am completely happy." ”
It's just that where his right hand is covered is the lungs, which is obviously his conscience. I couldn't help but laugh at it. In the past, whenever a tyrannosaurus girl asked the fat man, am I beautiful? The fat man will quietly cover his heart with his right hand, and squeeze out a smile and say, you are beautiful, very beautiful. Others don't understand, but I understand his trick very well, covering my heart with my hand, looking like a gentleman, but in fact telling others that I said this with my conscience.
Seeing that I was holding back, the fat man pushed me with his elbow and said viciously: "Laugh at your sister, why don't you help me find a way to get out." ”
I stifled a laugh and whispered to him, "Isn't that nice?" If you think about it, there is one more teacher for no reason, a tough backstage, and your waist can be straighter when you walk in the future. ”
"Good for your sister...... You don't know that Lao Tzu's hard days are coming. The fat man pouted and smiled bitterly
As soon as the words were finished, Uncle Qingsong called the fat man to Yang Qiye.
"In a few days, hold an apprenticeship ceremony, you worship this old horseman as a teacher, and let him teach you medical skills."
The fat man replied respectfully, but his face instantly collapsed. I estimate that his good days are coming to an end, with Yang Qiye's fierce temperament, it is estimated that the disciple is also very strict, and it is easy to have a fat man.
"Uncle Qingsong, since there is nothing to do, I will go out first, I still have something to deal with." At this time, I remembered the Kunyu that Murong Jiajia confessed. It's been so long since I came out, I have to refine the Kunyu so that Murong Jiajia has a place to stay.
Uncle Qingsong nodded, waved his hand, and said, "Go ahead, I'll take care of it here." ”
I walked out of the Zen Yi Hall, and in the lobby, Uncle Qingsong and the Seventh Master were discussing the matter of apprenticeship. Occasionally, there are loud arguments between the two over differences of opinion and ...... The fat man's wry smile.
After coming out of the Zen Yi Hall, I was going to buy jade for Murong Jiajia.
Speaking of this jade, I remembered an incident that happened around me before. The location of the story also takes place in Guangdong, and the protagonist is a grandmother who is about to become seriously ill. When he was about to die, he took off the jade bracelet he was wearing on his wrist and gave it to his daughter-in-law for her to keep it carefully. She said that this was the dowry that her wife bought for her when she married her.
At that time, the fat man and I were invited to pray for the old woman, and we were both present. I also saw my grandmother hand the jade bracelet to her daughter-in-law. The quality of the jade bracelet is not precious, it is just the Nanyu that Xinyi is abundant, but the jade bracelet is scattered with four wrong vertical and horizontal bloodshots, which should not belong to Nanyu.
However, the next scene surprised everyone. At the moment when the old grandmother breathed, the jade in the daughter-in-law's hand suddenly clanged and suddenly broke into two.
Later, Uncle Qingsong told us that jade is a spiritual thing, and people raise jade, and jade also moistens people. If the quality of the jade is good, after being warmed for a long time, blood will gush out on the epidermis. This is a manifestation of the aura of the jade bracelet, after the grandmother died, the jade bracelet was also broken, because the jade bracelet had feelings for the grandmother, and he wanted to go with the grandmother.
It is precisely because of this that I learned about the spirituality of jade. Later, I learned that jade not only has spirits, but also has other uses, for example, the underworld channel used to collect ghosts is one of them.
And now, Murong Jiajia asked me to buy jade for her, the purpose of which is to let the spirituality of jade nourish her soul. Moreover, what she asked me to buy was not ordinary jade, but kunyu, also known as Maoshan jade. It is known as the beauty of jade and the beauty of stone. During the Kangxi reign of the Qing Dynasty, there are records in the "Jurong County Chronicles" and "Nangi Chronicles".
This jade is abundant in Jurong Mao Mountain, the cold water stream of the north of the jade morning view, generated in the cliff cave, derived by the essence of the sun and the moon, although it is not as good as Hetian jade in value, but in the aura, it is not inferior at all, after a little sacrifice, it can be used to warm the soul.
Although Kunyu is abundant in Jurong Maoshan Mountain, it is sold in Zhejiang and Guangdong. In order to find the best Maoshan jade, I ran to the antique street in the suburbs.
Although the antique street is an ordinary alley, there are a variety of shops on both sides of this alley, and there are all kinds of small stalls outside the shops, in addition to calligraphy, painting, jade and antiques, even some old books of the sect and the old compass used by feng shui masters.
It's just that where there is truth, there is falsehood, and some people do business with conscience, and some people take fakes to confuse the truth. Taobao in the antique street depends on personal eyesight. People who don't have some eyesight, when they enter this alley, they will definitely be slaughtered as Kaizi.
And I happen to be one of those people who don't have the right eyesight. It's just that eyesight doesn't mean everything, and sometimes relationships are better than eyesight.
The shop I went to was a time-honored store in the antique street, and I couldn't be more familiar with Uncle Qingsong. Even if he had the courage to lie to me, he didn't have the courage to lie to Uncle Qingsong.
So, I'm not worried that I'm going to turn into a fish (Kaiko).
Walking straight up, I walked into a shop located in the Cross Alley. On the left side of the entrance to the store, there is a bald man holding a child.
This is the owner of this antique shop, Lao Zhao. Uncle Qingsong is familiar with him, also because of feng shui.
That was one of the things that happened two years ago. As we all know, people who are generally engaged in antiques believe in feng shui. Lao Zhao is no exception, when the shop opened, there were two rows of copper gourds hanging on both sides of the door, a total of nine, the number of nine is gold, the gourd goes to the disease and turns the disaster, in fact, this gourd is also a meaning, in Lao Zhao's opinion, this is all fucking fakes, worthless things, so it is generously placed outside the door.
Lao Zhao didn't expect that after being in this industry for so long, he would lose his eyes for the first time in the world. Among these nine gourds, the ninth is a genuine product shaped during the Qin Dynasty. Moreover, the time and position of this gourd are just in line with his five elements, and it has become a gourd for gathering wealth.
Once, an old man came to Lao Zhao's shop to buy something. But the old man wandered around the shop for a long time, but he fell in love with the ninth gourd hanging at the door.
Although the price given by the old man is not high. But I'm happy when the guests are satisfied. Lao Zhao still took out the gourd and sold it to him.
What Lao Zhao didn't expect was that the old man who bought the gourd was actually an expert and recognized the preciousness of the copper gourd. He was afraid that Lao Zhao would be suspicious, so he bought it at a very low price. After that, it was sold for more than a thousand times the price. This kind of behavior is called picking up leaks in the antique industry.
The antiques that have been searched for decades have been picked up by others in their own hands. Although Lao Zhao is sad, he is not a stingy person. He took it as a lesson to himself. It's just that what he didn't expect was that this lesson was far more than just the loss of an antique.
The next morning, the bicycle at the door collapsed with a bang, crushing Zhao's five-and-a-half-year-old grandson and breaking the child's leg. In the afternoon, the plaque, which had been in place for less than three years, collapsed, almost crushing the customers who came in to buy something.
Two disasters happened in a row in one day, and Lao Zhao also felt that something was wrong, so he hurriedly invited Uncle Qingsong to show him feng shui.
As soon as Uncle Qingsong saw it, the problem came out. Lao Zhao's shop is located at the end of the cross alley, and in front of the shop is a straight road, and there are shops on both sides of the straight road. In Feng Shui, there is a saying that water comes and goes straight is the most ominous, and a straight road is a gun. A house in this pattern is equivalent to being held by a spear against the neck, and only if it is activated by the Flowing Year Fortune Bureau, it will bring blood and light to the lord of life.
Lao Zhao was in such a bad position before, not only was he not injured, but his business was prosperous. It is precisely because the evil qi is suppressed by the spiritual gourd, and now that the gourd is sold, it is equivalent to one less formation eye in the formation, and the other eight gourds are all wasted.
Later, under the conditioning of Uncle Qing Song, the feng shui in Lao Zhao's shop was improved, and there was no one who was smashed.
The two know each other because of this, plus Lao Zhao believes in traditional Chinese medicine, he thinks that too many Western medicine needles are not good for the body, and Western medicine is always too cold. If you are sick, you should still see Chinese medicine, take some bitter medicine, and the root cause will not hurt your body.
Therefore, once he has a family member who is sick, he will come to Zen Yitang to prescribe Chinese medicine to eat. In this way, everyone will slowly get acquainted.
