Looking at the purple and blue finger marks on the ankles of the eighth sister Wan Xiaoyu, I was afraid in my heart, if it wasn't for me and my father, I'm afraid that the eighth sister would have been caught as a stand-in by the water ghost in the reservoir.

The little guy almost died, but he still muttered in annoyance: "That fish is big and swims fast, it's a pity to lose it like this......"

Dad also saw the clue, collected the fishing gear and hurriedly urged a few of us to hurry home, I pushed Xiaoyi and Dad to walk in front, and the wet eighth sister followed behind, chattering endlessly, still regretting the carp that had slipped away from her just now.

At dinner, Aunt Lu steamed a basket full of kidney bean paste buns, don't look at the small size of the eighth sister, this meal is not small, I ate twelve big buns with garlic paste, I also ate a mouthful of oil, and I didn't stop my mouth until I couldn't bend down.

"Seventh brother, you have gone to the south, and there will be no one to play with me. The eighth sister asked me with a full hiccup, her tone full of reluctance, as if the separation was at this moment.

I looked at this innocent little sister, touched her head with pity, and said to her, "There's no way for us to leave, after all, it's not a joke." I played with her and teased her, "This is God's will." ”

She looked at me with disgust, tsk, when did you become this virtue, Seventh Brother, which god are you talking about, is it the little doll that always follows you or the thing that Seventh Brother Dad follows?

I couldn't help but be surprised, endured the bloating and asked the eighth sister, I know that there are immortals in me, and my dad also follows immortals?

The eighth sister replied: "Seventh brother, don't you know? There is a yellow fairy on the seventh brother's father, I saw it when I came, and the yellow skin's little eyes are rolling around, and it looks like a thief." ”

I suddenly remembered that when I was a child, my father suddenly burned incense and worshiped the Buddha and gave people a doctor, could it be that the CD was done by Huang Xian'er on his body?

At dinner, there is a postman to deliver letters, several letters, I am used to this thing, although my father lives in seclusion in this small village in the northeast, but there is a wind and grass in Jiyang, the eldest sister will send a letter to inform, every month to say less also have to send a dozen or twenty.

As soon as the family put down the chopsticks, a heavy rain crackled and fell, and the air instantly became much fresher, I pushed Xiaoyi to the window to breathe fresh air, but my father came to me in a hurry with a letter and said to me: "Son, hurry up and buy tickets, let's go to Wuhan, your master doesn't have many days!"

Suddenly a thunderbolt sounded in my ears, so shocked that I couldn't slow down for a long time, the eighth sister pushed me before I reacted, picked up the backpack and ran out of the door, the eighth sister chased me behind, and went to the Pulandian train station with me.

Along the way, my heart was in a panic, thinking about the bits and pieces of my master from childhood to adulthood, and my tears were like a flood bursting, and I never stopped for a moment.

The eighth sister looked at me sadly, and didn't know how to comfort me, and kept telling me jokes in my ear, laughing to herself.

I scolded her: "You heartless person! Master is dying and you still laugh! He has been teaching you for several years!"

Seeing that I seemed to be really angry, the eighth sister put away her smile and said to me: "Seventh brother, I know you are sad, but I calculate that the master still has at least sixty years of yang life! ”

When I heard this, I felt curious, so I asked the eighth sister, "What do you say?"

The eighth sister said, Seventh brother, your lifespan always swings around the age of sixteen, and Master's Yang Shou has increased every time he calculates, from leaving the Taoist Temple to the present several years, Master's Yang Shou has increased by more than 60 years!

Listening to her say this, I remembered that since a few years ago, Master has either hid in the meditation room alone and closed the door, or he has gone down the mountain to travel, every time I see him, I feel that he is much younger than the last time I saw him, although he is nearly sixty years old, but he has always been in good health, I have only been down the mountain for less than two months, how could he suddenly be critically ill?

After buying the ticket, I went to the phone booth to call the sixth brother, but the little protector over there said that the sixth brother came to Jinping County after receiving a letter in the afternoon, and thought that he had gone to my house.

On the way home, the eighth sister kept sneezing, it is estimated that she caught a cold in the reservoir in the afternoon, she kept shouting cold, I took off my jacket and a thin shirt for her to wear, but it still didn't work, I touched her forehead, it was hot.

I asked her to stop, and then came to her and bent down with my back to her: "Come, Brother Qi carries you." ”

She is very light, twice as light as Xiaoyi, she seems to be burning very badly, and she has been talking vaguely, and the first sentence that sounds to me is very condensed.

"Brother Qi, don't mess with Xing Miao, okay, there is no good result. ”

"You were the best to me back then, and you bought me food when I was hungry, do you remember that time? You went to the bottom of the mountain to do odd jobs and paid your wages, and after I found out, I pestered you to let you buy me delicious food? In the end, you didn't have enough money to pay the bill, I ran away first, and you were chased and beaten by guys in the back? Seventh brother, you are the best to me, I don't want you to end up badly......"

"Master Liu Siyun is not my only master, I have also been named in the Zhengyi Sect, there are many masters, I specialize in cloth and clothing, I can't be wrong, the old man won't die so early...... Unless he makes a bad eye again......"

I didn't seem to hear the last sentence, and when I tried to ask her again, she was already asleep.

After arriving home, the sixth brother was already sitting in the main hall with a solemn face, and when he saw me come back, he began to wipe his tears: "Seventh, I'm almost without a father!" and then cried.

On the train to Wuhan, the sixth brother was depressed all the way, when the train stopped in Texas, my father went to buy a few grilled chickens to come up, and the sixth brother, who has always been greedy, couldn't raise his interest, just cared about grieving alone, except for the occasional words when I went to smoke with me, the rest of the time was basically silent.

When the three of us arrived at Chong'an Temple, I saw that from the bottom of the mountain to the Taoist temple, all the senior brothers and nephews heard that I and the sixth brother had returned, and they all gathered at the foot of the mountain to greet them.

Senior brother Fatong looked sad, after seeing me, tears fell down, the sixth brother ran up the hill quickly through the crowd, and heard him roar from a distance: "Dad!"

Master died, and he died five days ago.

According to Master's last wishes, his body was burned into ashes by my mother, who I had never met, that is, the mother of the sixth brother, and sprinkled it outside the Baiyun Temple of the Quanzhen Ancestral Court, so that the master's soul would accompany the ancestor for a long time.

"Old Seven, before his death, the master passed on the position of the presiding officer of the Chong'an Temple to you, and you will be the master of the Yiguan in the future. "Fifth Senior Brother Fa Yang said to me, his attitude was a little cold, I knew that he was ambitious, and he couldn't wait to eat at this time.

I said, "I went to worship Master first. ”

"Yo he! I didn't expect to meet an old friend here?" A tricky and mean male voice sounded from behind us, I turned around and looked, a man and two women, I didn't know each other, I just thought that one of the girls with eyes was quite familiar, but I couldn't remember where I had seen it.

The senior brothers didn't know the three people behind them, the second senior brother Fajie walked in front of the three people and gave a salute, and said: "Today's funeral ceremony of the family teacher, Chong'an Temple closed the door to refuse pilgrims to visit, please move a few donors to move to Changchun Temple not far from here, the scenery of Hankou is unlimited, the Yellow Crane Tower and Yu Boya Platform can also be walked by a few leisurely, recently Chong'an Temple suddenly encountered a white thing, I hope you will forgive me!"

The man also showed an expression of understanding after hearing this, but he ignored the second brother's words, walked straight to his father, and said arrogantly: "Since you refuse to accept pilgrims, can this big boss Ye not be able to step into this small temple?"

Dad said in a cold tone: "It's been thirteen years, Tao Zhu, haven't you put it down yet?"

When the man saw that his father had answered, he shouted angrily: "Ye Shou'an, how do you tell me to let go? If your father lets people kill you, can you still stand in front of the enemy who killed your father and be peaceful!"

Dad sighed, shook his head and said: "When you were young, I was indeed responsible for your father's death, but I was just not strict with people, not that I ordered Huzi to assassinate Lao Zhao, not to mention that it was your father who killed my Ye family first, and our two families were inevitably ...... fight."

Before Dad finished speaking, Zhao Taozhu interrupted his father's words and said slyly: "Okay, Ye Shou'an, I respect you as an elder, and I don't embarrass you, now among the gentry in Jiyang, your Ye family is no longer a climate, and the revenge of killing your father, let's calculate slowly, since you and I can't go up this mountain today, you might as well let me collect a little interest from you here first!"

Zhao Taozhu rushed to his father as he spoke, I stopped him with a dodge, and shook him with a big mouth by the way, I was upset about one thing after another recently, so the slap on his face was full of force, and I saw that after he was beaten, he rolled down the steps.

"Get out of here, dog-like thing, and don't look at what kind of thing you are, and your filthy soul is not afraid to pollute this quiet place. "I looked coldly at the business wizard in Lu Youcai's mouth, and I couldn't help but spread evil fire.

"Fulu, alright, let's go up quickly. "Dad was afraid that I would lose my temper regardless of the occasion, so he hurriedly urged me forward.

"Stop, boy, stop for me!" Suddenly a familiar female voice came from behind, and I suddenly turned my head when I heard it, and my heart was very excited, because I had heard this voice several times in my dreams, and it was the beautiful sister who cooked meat for me!

I looked back, but it was the long-haired girl with glasses yelling at me, I squinted my eyes and looked closely, only to find that this girl was about two or three years older than me, and the short-haired sister in the dream looked the same face, but she was mature in the dream, and she was immature in front of her.

Zhao Taozhu, who was grinning in pain when he saw the girl walking towards me, seemed to be afraid that she would suffer, and hurriedly shouted: "Bingbing, don't go over! Be careful that this kid hits you!"

Seeing my sister standing in front of me in my dream, I was a little nervous and overwhelmed, and my speech became stammering: "That....... Sister, I, I didn't mean to. ”

When the girl saw my embarrassment, she couldn't help but laugh and said, "A child, if you know your mistakes, you can change them to be a good child." They all thought that I would be angry, but they didn't expect that I would suddenly be docile like a sheep from the appearance of a tiger and wolf.

Dad awkwardly reached out and pushed me, motioning me to go up the hill, and I grinned at the girl, "Sister, can I go?"

The girl seemed to appreciate my humility, and didn't care about Zhao Taozhu's shouting below, and said to me: "Yes, I didn't expect you to really be a person, I asked you to stand just to say, isn't this Taoist temple refusing pilgrims, why can this Mr. Ye climb the Taoist temple?

I thought that this beautiful sister stopped me and wanted to ask for an explanation for Zhao Taozhu, but I didn't expect that she wanted to reason with me, interesting, really interesting, Zhao Taozhu, who was beaten, heard that the beautiful sister was not speaking for him, and suddenly changed his face, and sat on the steps without saying a word, and the other woman wanted to help him up, but he pushed the woman away and climbed up by himself.

The second brother said to the beautiful sister Shi Li: "This female pilgrim does not know, this Mr. Ye is a close friend of the family teacher, the family teacher said on his deathbed, specially invited Mr. Ye Shou'an to attend his funeral, and he is also the father of the next host of our Chong'an Temple, and he is qualified to climb the temple today, both in public and private." After seven days, Chong'an Guanhui opened the mountain gate to welcome pilgrims from all over the world. ”

The beautiful sister said "oh", smiled at me as if she didn't understand, turned around and walked down, I looked at her back, and reluctantly followed everyone up the mountain.
