Chapter 267: The Legend of Mother-in-law
Not long after Kimono lay down, there was a knock on the door.
I got up and went down to the ground, opened the door and saw Xiao Yong and his daughter-in-law standing at the door, with a little anxiety and hesitation on their faces.
As soon as I saw that there was something wrong with these eighty percent, I quickly let them into the house and invited them to sit on the kang, and then I asked, "What is the matter with the two of you coming together?" ”
Xiao Yong nodded, glanced at his daughter-in-law, and said to his daughter-in-law, "Juan'er, you can tell the Taoist." ”
Different from Xiao Yong's shyness, his daughter-in-law is a hearty "man", hearing Xiao Yong say this, he glared at him, then turned his head to look at me, and said: "Dao Chief, you see that my Xiao Yong is not outstanding, everything has to be done by my old lady, if there is something that can't be said, Dao Chang you have to take care of it." ”
I smiled slightly and said to Xiaoyong's daughter-in-law, "It's okay, just say it." ”
"Dao Chief, are you here this time for the Lord of the Mountain?" Xiao Yong's daughter-in-law looked at me with blazing eyes and asked.
My heart moved, and my right hand, which was tucked into my sleeve, immediately pinched the palm of my hand.
I think that I only mastered the method of calculation that Hu Feixue taught me back then, although I am not what it used to be, but I still don't know much about this method of calculation.
Therefore, we can only know an approximate idea of what is being measured.
So I asked Xiaoyong's daughter-in-law, "Are you here for your girl?" ”
The trick falls on the heir, and the heir falls in the fierce palace, that must be that there is a girl in his family, who has not yet married, and is facing the mountain sacrifice lottery.
Hearing me say this, Xiao Yong and his daughter-in-law immediately nodded like chickens pecking rice, and said in a loud voice: "Dao Chang is really powerful, aren't we just for my girl!" ”
"Do you want me to calculate whether I can be selected to worship the mountain?" I asked with a smile.
Xiao Yong and his daughter-in-law were stunned again, and his daughter-in-law hurriedly said, "That Taoist chief will help you calculate, see if my daughter can escape this catastrophe?" ”
I nodded lightly and said to Xiaoyong's daughter-in-law: "From the two of you, your children do not account for the ...... of death."
Hearing me say this, the two of them immediately breathed a sigh of relief, their eyebrows were overjoyed, and just about to say something to me, I continued: "But it has fallen into the fierce palace, and it is difficult to get out." ”
"This ...... What does this mean? Xiao Yong asked puzzled.
His daughter-in-law frowned, glared at Xiao Yong, and said, "Don't you understand what this means?" How accurate is the Taoist chief's calculation, our children have reached the age of drawing lots, which cannot be pushed off by life or death, isn't this just falling in the murderous palace, and it is difficult to get out? But didn't the Taoist chief say it too? Our children don't die, that is to say, our family has escaped, and in the end it was a false alarm! Right, Daoist? ”
After Xiao Yong's daughter-in-law taught Xiao Yong a lesson, she turned her head and asked me again.
I shook my head and said to her, "No, no, no, it's not that you interpret the hexagram that way!" ”
"Huh?" When Xiaoyong's daughter-in-law heard this, she hurriedly asked, "What do you mean, that chief?" ”
"Falling in the murderous palace, does it mean that this lottery was still drawn by your child." I stroked my three-inch black hair and said to them, "You can't get out, you have no other way but to send your daughter up the mountain." ”
"What?!" Xiao Yong immediately jumped up: "Dao Chief, you, you, didn't you just say that my child is not like that?" ”
"Yes, yes, Daoist, what's going on?" Xiaoyong's daughter-in-law was also a little anxious.
I stretched out my hand and motioned for them to be calm before I said, "Don't worry, listen to me." Although your daughter is in the murderous palace, it is difficult to get out. Fortunately, crape myrtle is at the head, and there is no danger. ”
"Ziwei Star?" Xiao Yong's daughter-in-law looked at me blankly and asked, "Dao Chief, can this Ziwei Star save my daughter?" ”
"Which star is that?" Xiao Yong scratched his ears and cheeks, and couldn't wait to run out now to see which crape myrtle star was.
"Crape myrtle is far away in the sky, close in front of you!" I looked like a man out of the world, and smiled at them.
After hearing this, Xiao Yong looked at his daughter-in-law and asked her in surprise, "Are you Ziwei?!" ”
I'm grass, is this guy only his daughter-in-law in his eyes? His daughter-in-law is Ziwei, does he think he is Erkang?
Or Xiao Yong's daughter-in-law is sober after all, knowing that she is not Ziwei, after glaring at the cute and stupid Xiao Yong, she asked me with some surprise: "What does the Taoist mean, you are our nobleman?" ”
I smiled and nodded, silent.
Xiao Yong also reacted at this time: "It turned out to be the Taoist Chief?!" ”
"It's also fate that Zi Weixing suddenly rose and shone on the fierce palace, so that your children will be in danger and turn evil into good fortune." I smiled and said to them, "If I hadn't come on a whim, looking for legends, and wanted to find out, then your child's purple microstar really wouldn't have been able to rise." So, this is providential! ”
"That's great." Xiao Yong exclaimed excitedly: "Dao Chief, is our daughter necessarily fine?" ”
Although Xiaoyong's daughter-in-law was also very excited, she still grew a little brain, and after the surprise that came suddenly, she asked me with a frown: "Dao Chief, will it ...... Something else is going on? ”
"Leave it alone if anything else is going on, I'll ask you first." I asked her curiously: "There are only dozens of families in your village, how can you sacrifice a girl to the mountain king every year?" I can't figure this out! Supposedly, your birth rate is not enough to worship the mountain, right? ”
"This ......" Xiao Yong and his daughter-in-law were both shocked, and their eyes were very flustered.
"Is it difficult, what is inconvenient to say?" I asked.
Xiao Yong and his daughter-in-law lowered their heads in unison, and I groaned: "Then it will be difficult for me......"
"Don't ...... Don't make it difficult, Chief. Xiaoyong's daughter-in-law raised her head and said to me anxiously: "Dao Chief, this matter is really hard to say, but there is nothing to hide, I will say it directly......"
"Juan?!" Xiao Yong suddenly raised his head and looked at his daughter-in-law in a panic: "Don't forget what Granny Shan said......
"Granny Mountain?" I raised my eyebrows: "Who's that?" ”
"Don't forget what she said, what about our daughter?" Xiaoyong's daughter-in-law angrily scolded her husband and said, "Is the mother-in-law of the mountain important or our daughter?" Do you want to watch our daughter die? ”
Xiao Yong's daughter-in-law was furious, Xiao Yong immediately wilted, muffled, and his daughter-in-law looked at me again, still not very relieved to ask me: "Dao Chief, can you really help my child get out of danger?" ”
"I said yes!" I pretended to be profound and said to her, "Lying son! ”
Xiao Yong's daughter-in-law was obviously stunned, and then her eyes began to be wrong, and her suspicious expression was revealed on her face, and I also reacted, as a yin owl old man who is over half a hundred years old, she really shouldn't talk about everything, and the mantra "my son lies" came out of my mouth, and it was still a little waved!
I hurriedly said to her, "If you don't believe me, look at me!" ”
Xiao Yong's daughter-in-law was staring at me, and when she heard me say this, she was puzzled.
I don't care about that, as soon as the black light in my eyes appeared, a golden sun shining immediately appeared behind me, holding a round of red sun with four arms, and it was extremely sacred.
Seeing this, Xiaoyong's daughter-in-law opened her mouth to stuff the eggplant, jumped from the kang to the ground, and her legs were about to kneel as soon as she was weak.
The statue of Da Ri Rulai only flashed for a moment and disappeared, Xiao Yong didn't have this eye, so he didn't see it, and when he realized it, he saw his daughter-in-law standing in the middle of the house with her legs bent, looking at me excitedly.
Xiao Yong hurriedly asked his daughter-in-law: "Juan'er, what's wrong with you?" ”
was asked by Xiao Yong, and his daughter-in-law came to her senses, pulling Xiao Yong's arm and being so excited that she couldn't control herself: "Her father, let's touch the living Buddha!" ”
"Living Buddha?!" Although Xiao Yong is a man in the countryside deep in the mountains, he can also distinguish what is a Buddha and what is a Tao.
So Xiao Yong asked his daughter-in-law with a smile: "But this is obviously a Taoist chief......"
This not only reminded his daughter-in-law, but also reminded me, yes! Am I not an old man? Isn't it good for me to transmogrify the three clears? Why do you want to transform the great sun?
Seeing that his daughter-in-law was about to ask me this embarrassing question, I hurriedly coughed lightly and said to the two of them in an unfathomable manner: "I am a dual cultivator of Buddhism and Taoism, and your daughter-in-law just saw my Dharma incarnation, which is why she is so excited." ”
"Then why didn't I look at it?" Xiao Yong asked puzzled.
"Everyone's chances are different!" I stroked my beard and said secretly in my heart, Lao Tzu is not a street juggler, is it possible to show it to whoever wants to see it? Do you want to pay for the tickets?
Xiao Yong's daughter-in-law almost doubted it just now, but now when she heard me say this, she was even more sure that I was really not an ordinary person, and she was as excited as if she was something.
"Dao Chief! Living buddha! Living Immortals! How much virtue has my daughter accumulated, and she can meet a master like the Taoist! "Xiao Yong's daughter-in-law changed my honorific title three times in a row, which is enough to show that the shaking just now is worth it!
"Don't get excited, it's all providence." I smiled and said to the two of them, "Sit down and tell me about Granny Shan." ”
This time, the two of them didn't dare to sit down, so they stood aside respectfully, saying that they didn't sit at anything, and it seemed to make sense that they couldn't sit on an equal footing with me......
Since they weren't going to sit down, I didn't dwell on it, and motioned to which of them would answer my question, and Xiaoyong's daughter-in-law stood up and said to me, "Dao Chief, that's the case. You listen to me and learn from you slowly......"
"Our village is small, but we have everything. There is also a temple in the village that I don't know what age it is, it seems that there is this temple in this village, and there are also people who say that this temple is earlier than the village, which no one knows. Xiaoyong's daughter-in-law said: "This temple is called Mother-in-law's Temple, and it is dedicated to Mother-in-law......
"It's weird!" I stroked my beard and asked her, "This mountain mother-in-law and the mountain king's master...... Is it possible to become a family? ”
"It's hard to say whether it's a family or not, but there is such a saying." Xiaoyong's daughter-in-law said: "Legend has it that the mountain mother-in-law and the mountain king used to be two people, the mountain mother-in-law is gentle and virtuous, three outlines and five virtues, and the mountain king is handsome and chic, and the spirit is extraordinary. After many years of the two of them, they couldn't have it, which made the originally harmonious two people start to quarrel, and the mountain mother felt that she owed the mountain king, and out of helplessness, the mountain mother had the idea of taking a concubine for the mountain king. So she moved to the bottom of the mountain, and specially lobbied the families of those unmarried daughters, so that they could marry their daughters to the lord of the mountain, and in return, one of their wishes could be fulfilled......"
"I see!" I nodded, that's right, that's the case with folklore, whether it's right or not, someone will always perfect it.
Xiaoyong's daughter-in-law nodded and said: "Because the mountain king was already old at that time, many families did not want to marry their daughters to the mountain king, and the mountain mother-in-law said that the mountain king has a long life, what is this age, compared with his endless lifespan, or a little doll who can only eat milk, this makes the mountain people naturally laugh when they hear it, who can believe this?" Granny Shan then got angry and let out the words, as long as she can give her daughter to the king of the mountain as a concubine, then Granny Shan will ensure that this side of the water and soil will live a long life! ”
"Daoist, you also know that in ancient times, let alone live a long life, it would be good to live to fifty at that time. Doubling the life span at once is tempting, although I don't believe it so much, but I still agree to marry my daughter. Xiaoyong's daughter-in-law said: "When the mountain mother-in-law took the little girl back and told her about taking a concubine, the mountain king was immediately unhappy. He didn't have the idea of taking a concubine, but it was not good not to accept the favor of Granny Shan, so he made an agreement with Granny Shan, that is, to stay only one night, if he could conceive, he would be pregnant, and if he couldn't conceive, he would be pulled. ”
"When the mountain mother heard this, the mountain king was still reading herself, and she was immediately moved to the mountain king, and said to the mountain king, if we don't succeed this year, we will come back for another year, and there will always be a time to conceive his seed." Xiao Yong's daughter-in-law sighed and said, "So this mountain king has not planted a seed until now!" Dao Chief, you said that if this mountain king had gone to the hospital in the big city earlier, would there not have been such an old and unjust death of his daughter for more than a hundred years? ”
I nodded, Xiaoyong's daughter-in-law's idea is quite scientific, what Kyushu fraternity or something, isn't it specialized in treating this? If this can cure the illness of the mountain king, then what kind of advertising is there, directly let the mountain king endorse and see the curative effect!
"But this is the recipe of the mountain mother-in-law you told me...... What does it matter? "I still haven't figured out what Xiao Yong's daughter-in-law said before.
"Isn't that not done yet?" Xiao Yong's daughter-in-law smiled embarrassedly and said to me, "Dao Chief, don't worry! Tell you about the legend first, and then talk about the following things, and you will understand it, so that you will not be confused! ”
"Well, it seems that I'm still in a hurry." I smiled and said to Xiaoyong's daughter-in-law, "Then please continue......"
