Chapter 264: Go to the Sanqing Palace to find Yun Niang
I remember Yun Niang said that there are masters in the Taoist temple, if you enter rashly, you may be discovered, if, I enter according to Yun Niang's previous method.
Just as I was looking at the door and thinking about it, a voice sounded next to me: "Little girl, are you here to tell fortunes?" ”
I glanced at the person who spoke, and there was a small table next to the steps of the Taoist temple, and a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone were placed on the table, and a bamboo was erected next to it, and a piece of cloth was hung on the bamboo, and the words were written on the cloth - Zhou Yi Qiankun, Yi Long Shenji.
It's kind of interesting.
I looked at the sky, it was still early, and since he stopped me, I went to see.
So, I walked up to the stall: "Are you talking to me?" ”
The man nodded, dressed in cloth, ordinary, ordinary, all ordinary, only his eyes were very bright.
I looked at the Taoist temple where people came and went, and asked curiously: "The incense here is vigorous, and there are many believers coming and going, why did you just call me?" ”
"Maybe it's fate with you." He smiled slightly, pointed to the stool in front of the table and said, "Girl, please take a seat." ”
I sat down calmly.
"I heard that the Taoist priest can tell fortunes, you actually set up a stall at the entrance of the Taoist temple, isn't this deliberately robbing other people's jobs?"
"No, no, no. Taoist priests can tell fortunes, and I can also tell fortunes, which is not a conflict. Could it be that if a monk can recite sutras, I can't recite sutras in front of monks? ”
My eyes lit up, I was a little eloquent, and as soon as I came out, I met such interesting people.
"Then you've been setting up a stall here for a day, how many people have come to tell your fortune?"
He was stunned when he heard this, and took a deep breath: "It seems that until now, you are the only girl." ”
"Hahaha," I couldn't help but cover my mouth and laugh, my long hair hanging to the side with my movements, I shook my hair, "If you don't go to fortune telling, you can become a storyteller." ”
Although I had never been out of the mountains before my transformation, I had heard my sisters talk about the outside world.
"What I learned is fortune telling, my master is a fortune teller, he taught me the skills of fortune telling, how can I become a storyteller?"
"But you're so eloquent, it's a shame not to tell a story. You see, on this day, no one has come to you to tell your fortune, and no matter how good your eloquence is, it will not come in handy. ”
"So, does the girl want to give her next chance?" He looked at me, a little excited.
I bowed my head and muttered, "I heard that fortune tellers want to give copper coins, but I don't have any money on me, are you still willing to let me give you this opportunity?" ”
He was stunned, he didn't expect that I was wearing good clothes, and I couldn't see that I didn't have a penny.
"Don't laugh, girl, just look at the girl's bracelet, and you know that it is impossible for a girl not to carry silver on her." His eyes fell on the bracelet on my wrist.
"You're a knowledgeable person." I nodded, "This bracelet was given by the elders of the family, and it is extremely precious. But I really don't have any money on me. ”
"But I can't let you tell my fortune for nothing, so be it." I smiled and said to him, "I remember you, and I'll come back to you when I have the money later." With that, I was ready to leave.
Talking and laughing with him also removed most of the nervousness I felt when I first met the Taoist temple.
When he saw that he was leaving, he suddenly became anxious, and hurriedly said: "That's it, I said that I am a good fortune teller, and you may not believe it, since you and I meet is fate, I will send you a hexagram, how about it?" ”
"Give me a hexagram?" I sat down again, "That's not necessary, so let's do it, I'll give it to me." ”
He sighed: "It's okay, you can't count all the hexagrams today, and the ones you send will also count." ”
"Tell me, what are you going to count?"
"I want to count if I go to the Taoist temple today to make a vow, whether it is auspicious or unlucky."
He was stunned: "Count this? ”
"yes, that's all."
He frowned and said, "Then please write a word first." He gestured to the brush next to him.
I was stunned when I saw the pen, although the elders of the clan taught us to read, but they didn't teach us to write, I was a fox before I was transformed, how to hold a pen, how to write?
However, I couldn't show my timidity, so I took the brush, dipped it in ink, drew a circle on the paper, and then put down the brush and looked at him.
He picked up the piece of paper, saw the circle, thought about it, looked at me again, and said, "Would the girl mind showing me your palmistry?" ”
I nodded, "Mind me." ”
He was petrified.
"This ...... This...... How is this calculated? ”
I put on an innocent expression and said, "The elders in the family don't let me show my palmistry to others. ”
He took a deep breath again, took the paper with circles in his hand, and looked at it repeatedly, as if a flower had bloomed on it, and then put it down and said, "In this case, I will estimate it." The girl came here to make a vow and drew a circle, naturally hoping that the ending could be reunited. ”
It's just that this circle is not round enough, and the sealing pen is not smooth enough, so it can be seen that although the ending may be reunited, the process may not be beautiful. That's all I can see. ”
He raised his head and smiled apologetically: "I am not good at learning, if I can't calculate accurately, I hope the girl will forgive me." ”
Seeing this, I nodded and smiled: "If you don't show palmistry and want to test words, it's also difficult for you." But you said that the ending may be reunited, which has made me hopeful, thank you. In the future, if there is a time to see you again, I will give you a wish. ”
With that, I smiled and left, leaving him dumbfounded.
I followed the crowd into the temple.
At the door, a large copper incense burner was placed, filled with incense and smoke.
Slowly walked into the main hall, there were not many pilgrims in the main hall, but they were all religious, and a few knelt on the futon, muttering to themselves.
I looked at the statue of Sanqing in the middle of the main hall, and I was curious about what kind of cultivation the host of this Taoist temple is, most of the people who dare to worship the Sanqing are Daguan, and this Taoist temple occupies an area that is not too large.
It just so happened that there was a person in front of me who bowed and left, and I also followed her example, walked in front of the futon and knelt down, and said sincerely: "Please be merciful to Shangxian, so that Hongyan can find her sister as soon as possible." ”
Suddenly, I felt that there was a little Taoist priest next to me, who had been staring at me, and I followed the induction, and he lowered his head again, pretending not to look at me.
I stood up and walked around slowly, and when I was about to walk to the backyard, a Taoist priest stopped me and said, "Donor, please stay, the backyard is not open to outsiders, and please move somewhere else." ”
I saluted and said, "Hello Dao Chief, I'm here and want to find someone, can you trouble Dao Chang to help me pass it on?" ”
The Taoist priest was curious: "The donor knows the Taoist priest of our Taoist temple?" I don't know which Taoist leader the donor wants to find? ”
"Xuanqingzi Dao Chief."
The Taoist priest was shocked when he heard this, but he instantly recovered his expression and said: "Is the donor looking for the wrong Taoist temple, there is no Taoist master named Xuanqingzi in this temple." ”
I knew by looking at his face that he must be hiding something from me, but at this moment, what could I do, I had to pretend to be surprised: "Oh? There isn't a Taoist named Xuan Qingzi here? Maybe I misheard the name of the Taoist temple and disturbed me. ”
With that, I turned around and left.
When the Taoist priest in the back saw me leave, he turned around and went to the backyard.
This is a Taoist temple, and I don't dare to let go of my divine sense, so I have to think that I will come back later to find out.
As I walked, I came to the bottom of a large tree in the temple, which was so leafy that its roots had been there for about a few hundred years.
I touched the trunk of the tree, thinking about where Yun Niang was, why the people here looked like a taboo when they talked about Xuan Qingzi, and what happened in the middle.
"May I ask this benefactor, do you want to find Daoist Xuanqingzi?"
Suddenly, a relatively immature voice came from behind him.
As soon as I turned around, I saw a young Taoist leader, the same one I had been staring at in the temple just now.
I was about to speak, but he shook his head and led me to a more secluded place, which was hidden by the big tree next to it, and if I didn't look closely, I couldn't see that there was anyone here.
I waited for him to stand still and asked, "You actually have a Taoist named Xuan Qingzi here, right?" ”
He was silent for a long time and nodded.
With a serious face, he said: "I saw you as soon as the donor entered the hall, not because of how beautiful your appearance is, but because you reminded Poor Dao of a person." ”
"Daoist chief is saying that my appearance reminds you of another woman, who is similar to me?"
He nodded again.
My heart is beating faster, could it be?
"What does that woman look like, can you describe it to me?"
"She is as young and beautiful as you, and the reason why she impresses Poor Dao is because she has always been the same as you, wearing her hair, but simply combing her hair in a bun, although she is gorgeously dressed, she does not have any accessories on her body."
"Is her name Yun Niang?" I asked word by word.
He was silent for a moment, then nodded again.
I took a deep breath and found the right place.
It turns out that Yun Niang's disappearance is really related to here.
"Where is she? Where is the head of Xuanqingzi Dao? I asked.
He shook his head: "The host won't let me say it." ”
"But, you know, right?"
"Poor Dao doesn't know where they locked up Senior Brother Xuanqingzi, and only a few senior uncles know about this matter."
"Off?" I think I've got the point, "Why off?" ”
"Poor Dao was still young, and he didn't remember many things very clearly, but he only knew about it, which made the host extremely angry, and later, Senior Brother Xuan Qingzi and Yun Niang disappeared together." His voice became smaller and quieter, "Senior Brother Xuan Qingzi treats Poor Dao very well, and Poor Dao has no cultivation, but Poor Dao feels that Senior Brother Xuanqingzi is not wrong. ”
"Poor Dao doesn't know what the relationship between the girl and Yun Niang is, and I don't know why the girl came to Guan Nei to find Senior Brother Xuan Qingzi, but since someone comes to them, it's always a good thing, at least it can let Poor Dao know where they are now."
I frowned, I was also a Taoist priest in the Taoist temple, and I didn't know where they were being held, so it can be seen that the place is an extremely hidden place, and if I want to find this place, I must find out why.
