The Ancient City of the Desert Chapter 34 Luo Blind

"What's the situation?" Lao Xu looked at me suspiciously.

I smiled, life is really interesting, often you think it is very important, but the most inconsequential, and what you think doesn't matter, but the key to life. I told Lao Xu about the fortune teller I met on the way to buy masks.

"At that time, I only thought that the fortune teller was a liar, but I didn't expect him to really have two hits, at least he said that I would be in trouble recently, and I said that we are not in trouble?" I asked Lao Xu with a smile.

"This... Well, this is really a trouble..."Lao Xu obviously felt that he had grasped a life-saving straw.

"Dead horses should be treated as live horse doctors. Without further ado, let's hurry to the old fortune teller. I got up, pulled Lao Xu up, and was ready to go.

Lao Xu and I rushed away, but when we got to the fortune-telling booth, we saw that there was still the old man. I remember very clearly that on the way to the supermarket to buy masks, I could never be mistaken. But I didn't see any fortune tellers around.

Where the hell did the old fortune teller go?

I hurriedly asked a small vendor selling clothes next to me if he had seen this fortune teller. The peddler replied, "You said that Luo is blind, he has just closed the stall." While closing the stall, he muttered, 'I have friends from afar, so I have to drink'. At the time, I laughed at him for his dreams, and he said that people would come to him for a drink before the sun went down. Are you his friends? This Luo blind man really has two children. ”

I saw that the vendor knew the old fortune teller named Luo Blind, and hurriedly asked where Luo Blind lived and where I could find him. The peddler said that when he left, the blind man told him that if someone came to look for him, "from now on he will go north and be annealed when he encounters gold."

It's a fucking mystery. Lao Xu and I silently read these two sentences in our hearts, pondering the meaning.

Looking at the meaning of these two sentences, it must be that we go north, but what does this "annealing in gold" mean?

Lao Xu frowned and pondered, while whispering these two sentences in his mouth, and suddenly said, "I understand!" ”

"Lao Xia, this person named Luo Blind is a fortune teller after all. Fortune tellers must be proficient in the five elements of the eight trigrams, in the five elements of the eight trigrams, the east belongs to the earthquake, the five elements belong to the wood; The south belongs to separation, and the five elements belong to fire; The West belongs to the exchange, and the five elements belong to gold; The north belongs to Kan, and the five elements belong to water. This gentleman is telling us to go north from here, turn to the street to the west, and turn south. "After all, Lao Xu is a leader in the archaeological field, and his knowledge is really profound.

Whether it's right or not, you have to give it a try. Lao Xu and I immediately walked along the street to the north, and walked about three or four hundred meters, and sure enough, there was a path in the east-west direction. Turn left into West Road, and after walking a short distance, you will see a small alley facing south. When I walked in, I found that this alley was not long, and there was no doorway on both sides. There is a house in this small alley. Lao Xu and I walked to the front, it was a bungalow house, the gatehouse was low, the door was dilapidated, and an iron door was mottled with rust everywhere. Lao Xu and I stepped into the gate of this courtyard and were greeted by a wall. There was a large open folding fan hanging on the wall, and a few words were written on the fan with red paint, and I didn't understand it for a long time. Lao Xu stared at it for a while, and said that this was wild grass, and it was written "One yin and one yang is the way, and Lotte knows his fate so he is not worried".

It seems that this is the home of the blind man Naluo, and Lao Xu really has two hits. I thought that behind the wall was a house, but when I turned around, I saw that behind the wall was a small yard, and the ground was clean. The three bungalows sit north and face south, and the gate of this courtyard is set on one side. Lao Xu and I looked at each other for a moment, and then walked to the door together. Before he could get to the front, a voice came from inside: "Coming? Come in, come in. Look, what delicious food has the old man and I prepared? ”

Lao Xu and I entered the room, and there was a table facing the door, and a few dishes were already on the table. There was a man in the room who was busy in front of the pot, and sure enough, it was Naro who was blind.

Luo Blind Man smiled while stir-frying, and said, "I knew you would come, and the dishes were ready." Come on, come on, come on. Drink and chat. "He really doesn't treat us as outsiders.

Although I didn't know this blind man before, since he was so enthusiastic, at least sit down first, not to mention that we still have something to ask for.

The blind man served the dishes in the pot, and then beckoned me and Lao Xu to sit down, and while pouring wine, he said: "These two brothers don't need to say much, I have been walking the rivers and lakes for more than 30 years, following the master to learn yin and yang, perform the five elements, and criticize words and break my life. I already know the purpose of your coming today. Let's drink first, and after drinking this glass of wine, let me talk slowly and in detail. ”

It is better to be respectful than to obey fate, it seems that this blind man really has some Taoism, which is not comparable to those ordinary warlocks. Drinking this glass of wine, the blind man slowly introduced himself to us.

It turned out that this blind man was originally from Shandong, and his parents died early when he was a child, and he became an orphan at the age of five or six, and grew up eating hundreds of meals. Later, when he was ten years old, he met a Taoist priest. The Taoist priest saw that Luo was blind and had some talents, and his background was pitiful, so he was moved by compassion, so he accepted him as a disciple and taught while nurturing him. Luo Blind is a hard-working man, since he was a child, he relied on the help of neighbors to survive, as the saying goes, the children of the poor are in charge of the family early. This Luo blind man also knew a lot of things early on, plus he was smart and clever, but he really regarded the Taoist priest of Youfang as a teacher and a father, respectful and respectful, and filial piety. The Taoist priest of You Fang taught his Taoist skills such as Taoism, Five Elements and Bagua to Luo Blind. When the Taoist priest was in his twilight years, he ignored the punishment of heaven and forcibly made up a lesson for the blind man. Who knew that the hexagram divined that this Luo blind man would die in middle age. The Taoist priest of Youfang couldn't bear to suffer this catastrophe, so he used the forbidden method in Yin-Yang to change the life of the blind man.

To say that this method of life-changing transport has long been lost now. The reason is that the destiny of heaven is difficult to violate, and it has been a taboo to spy on the heavenly machine, and it is necessary to change the life and transfer, which in the eyes of Taoists is simply to go against the sky, so that it will be punished by heaven. But the Taoist priest loves Luo Blind too much, not to mention that he is a few years old, and he will save Luo Blind's life by fighting for this old life and the fortune of the next life.

I took a sip of wine and asked the blind man, "What happened later?" ”

The blind man's eyes turned red, he raised his head and drained the wine in the cup, and said, "The old man and I are fifty and three this year, and I am already an old man, right?" Tears fell from his eyes.

Lao Xu and I didn't speak, and watched silently, this Luo blind man is also a man of temperament, judging from these few words, his filial piety has not diminished back then, and it is worth handing over.

The blind man raised his head and drank the wine in the cup, wiped his mouth, and said, "Master, he drove away shortly after changing his fate for me, and I was only twenty-eight years old at that time. Relying on the fortune-telling skills passed down by the master and this house, he makes a living here. In the year of Hong Kong's return to the motherland, a strange thing happened in a nearby village. ”

"What's weird?" I asked hurriedly.

"There is a hard-working man named Lao Li in the nearby village, who relies on his hard work to make a living. People don't marry a daughter-in-law until they are forty, and this daughter-in-law is quite competitive, and the next year she gave birth to a big fat boy. Lao Li is also very happy to be able to marry a wife and have children in middle age. When the child was five years old, he ran out with a group of children, and when he came back, he began to have a fever and talk nonsense, and he didn't eat a drop of water for three days. Later, Lao Li heard about my master's ability, so he ran over to beg. But that year, my master was already immortal. Although my skills are not as good as my master's, I can't insult my master's reputation, so I packed up my guys and followed Lao Li. ”

"And then?" Lao Xu was obviously also interested.

"And then? Then something happened. Luo Blind pointed to his left eye, and then said: "I thought it was just a loss of soul, children, it is easy to lose a soul when you go out to play." As a result, I opened my eyes and looked, oh ho! There was a dark shadow on the child's back. Where do you understand this, this is a grievance, very difficult to solve! I hurriedly got off the incense case, counted the time, and prepared to collect the evil obstacle. Na Cheng thought, the evil obstacle is very resentful, but it is the resentment debt of this child's previous life, even if my master is there, he doesn't dare to pat his chest. ”

The blind man took another sip of wine and sighed: "This is also my fixed number, the sky is changing, and the number of places is fixed." I saw that Lao Li and the people in his room were begging me hard, and my heart softened, and I forgot what my master warned me before he died-don't care about things in the water. The obstacle was something in the water, and it was attached to the children when they were playing by the river. When I did it, I used the forbidden method, and then in addition to the evil obstacle, I violated the heavenly opportunity, attracted calamity, and damaged my eyes. But seeing that Lao Li's family is safe and sound, it's worth it. ”

Luo Blind has completely lost his left eye, I don't know if it is the effect of his master's change of fortune, or the favor of God, but the right eye remains, but the eyelids are always squinted into a slit, and at first glance it seems that both eyes are blind. Coupled with the strong evidence of Lao Li's family, the name of this blind man has spread far and wide, and it is already equivalent to a god in this vicinity.

"Daoist Luo, do you know the purpose of our trip?" I asked him tentatively.

"Hehe, little brother, don't call me Dao Chang, you call me Luo Blind or Old Luo Ducheng. Are you here for an ancient tomb? ”

"Lao Luo is really smart! We're here for an ancient tomb. We are an archaeological team, and we were ordered to conduct a scientific expedition to a nearby ancient tomb, and it was smooth sailing, but yesterday suddenly..."Before Lao Xu could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Luo Blind waving his hand.

"You don't have to say it, I know, come, let's have another drink!" Luo Blind Man is obviously confident, and he looks like he knows everything. Although this is the first time I have talked to Luo Blind, this fortune teller is dressed very earthy, and his words and deeds have a unique temperament. Of course, this temperament is not like those gentlemen and ladies, but it is very simple and simple, and it is pleasing and convincing.
