The back of the idol will open a hole to reach the chest, and then fill it with something that gives the idol powers, this process is called ' There are only seven categories of dirty', the first category is filled with grains, symbolizing that the idol can bless the wind and rain, and the five grains are abundant; the second category is the classics, in order to show the supreme wisdom of the idol; the third category is the bronze mirror, to indicate that the idol can perceive good and evil; the fourth category is the five-color line, to indicate that the five elements are complete; the fifth category is cinnabar and yellow to indicate that the idol can avoid evil and drive away evil; the sixth category is gold and silver jewelry, to indicate that the idol can bless the believer to attract wealth and treasure; the seventh category is the magic sword and other magic weapons, in order to show the supreme power of the idol, which can punish evil and promote good.

After the old man handed me the scissors, Huang Yunqiu motioned for me to do what the old man said, went around to the back of the statue, opened the small box, took out the rune paper that was originally placed inside, and then put the scissors in it. As he spoke, he bowed to the idol a few times and put on a stick of incense.

It's the first time I've seen him, but it's not the first time I've heard about him, the credit knife man has the ability to predict the future, this old man predicted the old dragon squeezing out the little dragon decades ago, and predicted the old dragon's decapitation of the little dragon's guts, and now he only uses a pair of scissors, so that this headless god statue can play a role again, which shows the great ability of this old man.

Huang Yunqiu understands this better than us, and now that Liu Cheng is in the dark, she has no choice but to turn to the old man for help, and immediately bows and salutes, "Please also ask the old gentleman to help us." ”

The old man just smiled, looked us up and down, and after a while, he spoke, "You Taoist things talk about fate, plant cause and get cause, plant fruit and get fruit, I have nothing to talk about cause and effect with you, help you not conform to the rules, and then say, the people who follow you around you are terrible, where do you need my help from a person buried in loess to the center of your eyebrows." Said and waved his hand, "I won't mix, I'm here to collect the knife money this time, I left two sentences at the time, and now I have realized one sentence, and there is still one sentence left that the old dragon's decapitation has not been realized, and the knife money cannot be recovered for the time being, if you can help me get the knife money back, I may be able to teach you a wonderful method, but you can be safe." ”

I was surprised and asked, "Haven't the old dragon's beheading and the little dragon's loss of courage already been realized?" Why can't you still collect knife money? ”

The old man looked at me with a smile, stretched out his dry hand and touched my head, "The old dragon's head is broken until the old dragon is really cut off to count, but it can't be counted by cutting a paper figure." ”

Cutting the paper man doesn't count, doesn't he mean that he really wants to cut Liu Cheng so that he can collect the knife money?

A few of us immediately shook our heads, we would rather not want him to help us, we will never really cut off Liu Cheng's head, we can't be that ungrateful person, besides, although this old man is very capable, but if he really compares, he may not be able to compare with Liu Cheng, and we will never cut off Liu Cheng's head in order to let him help, the gains outweigh the losses.

However, almost all the things predicted by the credit knife man came true, he predicted that the old dragon would be beheaded, could it be that he had predicted that Liu Cheng would definitely be beheaded?

Huang Yunqiu thought for a while and asked, "Did you predict that the old dragon was really going to be beheaded?" ”

The old man fixed his head, "I really want to be beheaded." He pointed to the bag he had placed outside the door, and then said to us, "Well, let's not talk about the old dragon's decapitation, I'm so tired that I can't lift the bag, if anyone of you can help me carry the bag in, I'll promise to help you once." ”

I've tried it just now, but I can't lift it anyway.

Huang Yunqiu and Chen Yingying naturally won't let go of this opportunity, the two went out together and tried them one by one, this bag doesn't seem to contain anything, it shouldn't be heavy, but Huang Yunqiu and Chen Yingying tried it in turn, but they couldn't move the bag for half a minute.

The old man watched silently, and when he saw that the three of us couldn't lift the bag, he could only laugh, "It seems that you can't help us bring the bag in, and I can't help you." So saying, he stepped out and carried the bag himself.

At this moment, I saw a gray figure appear outside the mountain gate, and the gray wolf who had asked Huang Yunqiu for a seal appeared in front of the mountain gate, because he was walking too quickly, he actually knocked the bag and moved a few points, but the gray wolf didn't care about the bag, and was about to walk towards the Taoist temple.

Just about to step in, the foot he was carrying hovered in mid-air, the copper bell at the corner of the eaves of the Taoist temple jingled, and those town house charms that had been invalid before turned back to their true colors again, and the gray wolf hurriedly put his front paws back, standing in front of the mountain gate and hovering, as if he had something to say.

The old man saw the gray wolf knock the bag and move it a little, his face was shocked, and he muttered, "This is bad, how can it be moved by a beast!" ”

Last time, it was because the thin and tall Taoist priest was there, and the Taoist priest was a person recognized by the Taoist temple, so he could naturally bring them in, but now that this gray wolf came alone, he definitely couldn't get in.

Huang Yunqiu saw that the gray wolf seemed to have something to say, and stood in the Taoist temple and asked the gray wolf, "Do you have something to tell us?" ”

The gray wolf listened to Huang Yunqiu's words, and immediately wagged his tail outside the mountain gate, and we were dumbfounded, living in the countryside for so many years, I naturally know how to distinguish between a wolf and a dog, a dog will wag its tail, but a wolf will not.

The gray wolf actually learned to wag his tail as if to express something.

Huang Yunqiu looked at it for a while and said, "Dog? ”

The gray wolf nodded again and again, Huang Yunqiu was right, it stopped wagging its tail and ran to the other side of the Taoist temple, not long after, but out of nowhere came a stone statue about thirty centimeters long, the statue was the image of a dog, and the statue was red.

We guessed at a glance that this was the dog that the thin and tall Taoist asked Zhao Shide to carve out of dragon stone.

The gray wolf took the stone statue of the dog and put it on the ground, but he didn't know what to say next, so he was so anxious that he circled around the mountain gate, and we didn't know what it meant, so we had to watch silently.

When the gray wolf was spinning, his head kept looking at his chest, and he was so anxious that he whined.

We looked at each other for a while, but we didn't understand, and I looked at it for a while and said, "Is it talking about its wolf heart?" ”

As soon as I said this, it immediately stood up and nodded, and then offered the stone statue with its nose, and after a short time opened a box behind the stone statue of the dog, opened it without saying a word, took a few steps back and then rushed towards the mountain gate, and slammed into the mountain gate with a bang, only to whine, stiffen and lie on the ground, and instantly lost its breath.

A few of us hurried over, and when we saw the gray wolf lying on the ground, we didn't understand what it meant, but the old man said, "It means, use its wolf heart to replace the dog gall in this stone." It seems that you have been gracious to it, and it has come to repay it. ”

The old man didn't discuss with us after speaking, he took out the knife he had struck before, and slashed at the gray wolf's belly, and we frowned.

The old man didn't react, he reached in and told us, "My body is cold, I don't know how long it has been since I died, someone has made it a 'hairy dog'." As he spoke, he pulled out a small half-fist-sized black stone from the gray wolf's body, which looked like a heart.

We were dumbfounded, this gray wolf's heart turned out to be made of stone.

The old man then handed me the bloody stone and urged me, "Go and replace it." ”

I hesitated, walked to the dog stone statue with the stone, reached into the stone statue's box and pulled it out, a blood-red stone was taken out of the stone statue, and then quickly put the black wolf heart into it, and then closed the box.

The old man said to me again, "This is gentian, you must keep it well, and you can't lose it again." ”

I nodded.

Huang Yunqiu looked at the corpse of the gray wolf on the ground, his face was not quite right, and he was quite sad, and asked the old man, "Is it really dead?" ”

The old man smiled, "It's long dead, if it's alive, how can it be a stone heart." Besides, it helped me move this bag, so I can't die like this, and I have to ask it to help me kill the old dragon. The old man took out the needle and thread from his body again, sealed the gray wolf's belly, and slapped the gray wolf again, "In the future, you will have no heart, and no matter who asks you what will happen to you in the future, you will not be able to reply." ”

The old man patted the gray wolf again, and the gray wolf really slowly opened his eyes, stood up again, looked at the old man vigilantly, and found that I was holding a red stone gall in my hand, and staggered towards the stone statue of the dog, and walked away with the stone statue of the dog in my mouth.
