The old man's face was solemn, and he knelt in front of the incense case and chanted words in his mouth. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

I had seen this kind of scene in the novel, and he knew that the old man was going to draw a talisman for me.

After the old man finished praying, he stood in front of the table, he stroked the paper with his left hand, held the pen with his right hand, and drew three talismans in one go. He lifted the three talismans, circled the incense three times, solemnly handed them to me, and said, "These three talismans, one is a peace talisman, you burn it when you go home, and then soak the paper ash in water and drink it." The second talisman is the amulet, which you have to carry in your pocket that fits snugly. The third talisman is the Ghost Suppression Talisman. When you encounter an evil spirit, stick it on the door of the demon's head. Remember: these three talismans are used for different purposes, so don't use them incorrectly. ”

I solemnly took the three talismans, nodded, and said, "Thank you, old man, I remember it clearly, and I won't be mistaken." With that, I carefully put the three talismans into my pocket.

When I lifted my shirt and picked up the talisman paper, I was revealing the keychain hanging from my waist.

"That's... What is that?" asked the old man, pointing to the keychain, in surprise.

"It's the key. I replied.

"I'm asking this little gourd. The old man bent down and looked carefully at the small gourd hanging from the keychain.

"Oh, it's my favorite little pendant. "I wonder why a small gourd pendant has aroused such curiosity among the old man.

The old man glanced at it a few times, and suddenly knelt down respectfully, and he kowtowed while saying, "Poor Dao to meet Sanmao Zhenjun." ”

I was confused by the old man, and thought: He bowed down to this little gourd, could it be that this little gourd is really a divine object?

At the beginning, when Liu Jian, a headless male corpse, saw this little gourd, he was so frightened that he retreated again and again, looking frightened. Now, when the old man saw this little gourd, he knelt down so reverently, it seems that this little gourd is not an ordinary thing.

The old man kowtowed nine times before he got up. When he saw that I was puzzled, he explained: "Young man, I am a Maoshan Taoist priest, and the small gourd on your waist is a divine object that has been opened by my Maoshan Taoist ancestor. Seeing things is like seeing people, so I just knelt down and worshiped the ancestor of Maoshan Taoism. ”

At this moment, I figured out that the old man was an old Taoist priest.

"Grandpa, you're not mistaken, this little gourd of mine is just an ordinary pendant. What Maoshan Taoism, what enlightening gods, I don't understand at all. When I heard the old man's words, I was very surprised, and I thought: Could it be that the old Taoist priest made a mistake and mistook an ordinary evil spirit-repelling thing for a treasure.

"Young man, I solemnly tell you: this little gourd is a treasure of my Maoshan Taoism. It is said that there are only three such treasure gourds, and it has boundless divine power. The old Taoist priest said with a solemn face.

"There are many such gourd pendants on Taobao, and the cheap ones are only a few yuan each. "I think the old Taoist priest is exaggerating a bit.

"This gourd is not the other gourd, don't look the same, but it's two different things. The old Taoist priest said solemnly.

"How can you tell?" I still didn't quite believe the old Taoist priest's words.

"Your treasure gourd is full of golden light, of course, mortals can't see the golden light, only we Taoists can see it. However, ghosts and gods can also see it. The old Taoist priest said.

"Yes. "I took the gourd the size of a finger from the keychain, held it in the palm of my hand, looked left and right, and didn't think it was amazing.

"Young man, who gave you this treasure gourd?" the old Taoist priest asked suspiciously.

"I don't know where it came from. Anyway, it's been around my neck for as long as I can remember. It's only been hanging on the keychain since I was in college. I replied.

"That's weird. The old Taoist priest pondered for a while and asked, "Are your father and grandfather from Maoshan Dao?"

"My father was a middle school teacher, and my grandfather was just a farmer and died a long time ago. I replied.

"Are you sure that my grandfather was just an ordinary peasant?" the old Taoist priest asked.

"My grandfather died before I was born, so I don't remember him at all. My father never told me about my grandfather. I thought, perhaps, that grandfather was an ordinary farmer, and there was nothing to talk about. I replied.

"Young man, your father never mentions your grandfather, and there's a lot of stuff in that. I can tell you: this treasure gourd is not something that ordinary Taoist priests can have. At least, it has to be a real-level Taoist priest in my Maoshan area. It seems that your grandfather is a real person from Maoshan. The old Taoist priest said solemnly.

I said suspiciously: "If my grandfather was a Taoist priest of Maoshan Mountain, there would always be rumors reaching my ears, and it would be impossible to cover it without leaking." However, I had never heard of Taoism. ”

"Alas, for more than half a century, this has not been the case. Therefore, my Maoshan sect is also gradually declining. The so-called Taoist priests in the world now are all gangsters who cheat and eat and drink, and pretend to be ghosts. True Taoist priests are already rare. The old Taoist priest shook his head and sighed.

"I'll take some time to go home and ask my dad what he does. "For the first time, I became interested in my unimpressed grandfather.

"If your grandfather's Maoshan is a real person, there should be other treasures. The old Taoist priest pondered and said, "The treasures I am talking about do not mean gold and silver treasures, but the treasures of our Taoism, just like this treasure gourd." ”

"You say this is a treasure gourd, so may I ask you: what is so magical about it?" I asked curiously, looking at this small gourd that did not look amazing.

I thought to myself: if only it could turn me into a house, into a car. When I was a child, I heard the story of the "treasure gourd", and the treasure gourd of other people can be conjured into anything you want, so it can be called a veritable treasure gourd. But this treasure gourd can only scare the ghosts. Alas, what a disappointment.

"Young man, not everyone can make the treasure of our Maoshan Taoism show its power. You've got to have a certain amount of skill to do it. As far as I know: this gourd can collect ghosts. Good ghosts can enhance yin qi and accumulate power. Bad ghosts can lose all their yin energy and die if they are put in. The old Taoist priest told the story.

When I heard this, I was startled and hurriedly asked, "Old man, I put the female ghost's head into the gourd, it doesn't matter, right?"

"You put the hair of the female ghost in the treasure gourd?" the old Taoist priest asked in surprise.

"yes. Isn't it okay?" I was a little scared, and thought: I shouldn't hurt Miao Siyu.

The old Taoist priest pondered for a moment and said, "When you go on a date with a female ghost, mobilize her to get into your treasure gourd." If she's willing to come in, she's in love with you. Otherwise, you will help her borrow the corpse to resurrect her soul, and she will not marry you. Try it, lad. ”
