Chapter 336: A Coincidental Encounter
Old man Zhuge got the Tongling Treasure Jade, and on the way back, he kept humming a little song in his mouth. The three of us were a little unhappy to follow behind the old man Zhuge , I came to this place for the things on the book of breaking the ground and the silk book, now he has a harvest, but I have nothing to gain, I don't feel that I can just go back like this.
Old man Zhuge should have sensed my thoughts, and he said, "Boy, you don't have to be unhappy, I told you before, you have gained here, not only you, but those two boys are not in vain." ”
Hearing him say that, I asked him to explain it to us.
"You also know this hexagram, when you tell people hexagrams, you tell others clearly, if you really do this, even if you kid is blinded by heaven, now he is a dead man, and God is not your father, and he will not get used to you."
What the old man Zhuge said is such a reason, showing people fortune telling is originally leaking the secret of heaven, if you say too much, you will be punished by God.
"Let me tell you, I don't know if there are immortals living on the top of the Cloud Peak Peak, but there must be people, you can go up there and have a look." Old man Zhuge didn't say anything after speaking.
I immediately understood what he meant, and quickly calculated in my mind, if there were people living on the top of this cloud peak, whether those people had migrated from this village, it was really possible.
The sting in Cloud Village is unusually clean and tidy, maybe they cleaned it up, as for why they moved out of here to live on the more inconvenient mountaintop, it may have something to do with the feng shui changes here.
We walked to the village, I looked at the stone man and stone horse parked at the head of the village, the eyes of this thing, how I looked at it and how I thought there was something mysterious in it, but I couldn't say it.
A few people returned to our accommodation, and Big Tooth was looking around, and when he saw that we were back, he quickly greeted us happily.
"It's great that you're back, I heard the cries in the mountains, and I thought something was in danger of you."
"We're fine, hey, what about the two donkeys." The old man Zhuge looked in the direction of the bolted donkey and asked.
"The bark was so loud just now that the two donkeys scared away." Big Tooth said.
"Run, run, I originally wanted to use the glutinous rice inside to suppress the stone man and stone horse, but I didn't expect the big array to break so easily." Old man Zhuge nodded and said.
Everyone rested here until dawn, and the next day, the old man Zhuge said that he still had to go back, and before leaving, he told me that he owed me a favor, saying that when I was in trouble again, he would pay it back to me.
The most difficult thing in this world is to repay the debt of favors, since this old man Zhuge said that he owes me a favor, I naturally have no reason to push it out. With this favor, it will be much easier for me to deal with the ghosts under my house in the future. However, this favor should not be used as much as possible, because it is only once.
After breaking up with Old Man Zhuge , we climbed towards the top of Yunding Peak. The summit of this cloud is very high, and the higher you climb, the steeper it becomes.
It took the three of us a day to finally climb to the top of the highest peak, Yunding Peak. Standing on the top of the mountain, I was suddenly surrounded by clouds.
Under the clouds, the top of the hill was exceptionally flat, and I could even see some sparse buildings and fields that had been reclaimed to grow crops.
In addition, on the top of the mountain, there is a small lake.
"This place is truly a blessed place." Zhou Ping looked around and couldn't help but say.
"This place is good, but it's too troublesome to go down the mountain." Yuan Qingguang shook his head and said.
Just as we were talking, a voice suddenly came, "Who are you, I don't know what kind of place this is, so leave quickly." ”
With this voice, a little girl with two whips and a strange costume appeared in front of us.
This little girl is about seventeen or eighteen, and her face is dark, but although it is dark, it is very attractive.
"Brother, there are really people living here, and they look like fairies." Yuan Qingguang stared at the girl with a pair of eyes.
The girl was a little angry by him, and suddenly a whip was added to her hand, and she whipped it towards Yuan Qingguang.
"Why is your little girl so temperamental, I just looked at it a few more times, how can you raise your hand." Yuan Qingguang grabbed the little girl's whip and pulled it forward, and the little girl was directly dragged along.
When the little girl just turned her face, another voice came, "Xiaoyu, don't be rude." ”
I pulled Yuan Qingguang and motioned him to let go of the whip, Yuan Qingguang let go of the whip, and the little girl who called Xiaoyu pulled the whip back. He came to the old man angrily and pouted, "Grandpa, they trespassed into our village without permission and made rude remarks to me. ”
The old man waved his hand and asked the little girl to stand aside, and then he came to us, looked at us, and said, "Have you been to Cloud Village at the bottom of the mountain?" ”
Hearing him say that, I nodded, "Well, I've been." ”
"So you have solved the feng shui problem in Cloud Village?" The old man continued to ask.
Yuan Qingguang said on the side, "That feng shui was repaired by my brother." ”
When the old man heard this, he immediately bowed deeply to me, but he startled me this time, and I quickly took a step back, "Old man, what do you mean by this?" ”
"Come with me into the village, you are the guests of our village." After the old man finished speaking, he said to the little girl behind him, "Xiaoyu, you hurry home and ask your grandmother to prepare more food, and say that there is a distinguished guest at home." ”
Hearing him say this, the three of us are a little confused, we followed the old man is the first time to meet, but also offended someone's granddaughter, how can he be so good to us, and call us honored guests.
Although the little girl was a little reluctant, he should have been afraid of his grandfather, and walked towards the village with some displeasure.
"Guys, come with me into the village." After the old man finished speaking, he led the way.
"Could there be any traps waiting for us?" Yuan Qingguang said in a low voice.
"Since you're here, even the Longtan Tiger's Den has to break in, let's go." After Zhou Ping finished speaking, he stepped forward and followed.
I also followed, we came here to solve the mystery of the book on the ground and the silk book, and when we came, we naturally wanted to break through.
The houses in the village are very poorly built, and they are basically made of a mixture of wood and stone.
Looking at the size of the village, there are probably dozens of households. When we followed the old man into the village, it was already evening, and at this moment the chimneys of every house were full of cooking smoke, in such a picturesque place, seeing such a scenery, it really made people feel relaxed and happy, forgetting all their troubles.
On the way, the old man introduced himself as Jiang and was a priest in the village.
The old man led us into the courtyard of a house, which was to be larger than the others. After entering the courtyard, he shouted inside, "Old woman, your distinguished guest has arrived." ”
Immediately, an old woman wearing an apron walked out, the old woman was holding a wooden shovel in her hand, he should be stir-frying, and when he heard the voice of the old man Jiang, he hurriedly ran out.
"Just now Xiaoyu came back and said that a distinguished guest was coming, so I asked me to prepare more meals, but I see that Xiaoyu's girl seems to be a little unhappy, what the hell is going on." The old woman came to Old Man Jiang and asked in a low voice.
"Don't worry about him, these are distinguished guests, you can prepare a few more dishes and treat our most expensive guests well." Old man Jiang was very hospitable.
The old woman greeted us and went back to the kitchen to cook.
The old man led us into the hall, and after everyone sat down, Old Man Jiang said, "Our village originally lived in Yunwu Village below, and our village is relatively closed and never interacts with outsiders. More than a thousand years have passed, and the people in the village are living very well, although they are not rich and rich, but they do not worry about eating and drinking. ”
Then, one day, suddenly, the people of the village began to disappear and fall ill inexplicably, and later found their bones in the cracks in the back mountain. Only then did we know that the village we live in had been changed by a python and salamander, and we moved to the top of this hill in order to survive and take care of our ancestors. ”
"Last night, I was standing on the top of the mountain and heard a voice below, knowing that you killed the python and the salamander, and repaired the feng shui here, you are the benefactor of our whole clan. In the future, we don't have to worry about going to worship our ancestors, we can also help to live below......"
After Old Man Jiang said this, I nodded, which was similar to what I had thought before. However, Old Man Jiang didn't tell us the secrets of the village, he should think that we didn't know.
I smiled a little and said to Old Man Jiang, "Priest Jiang, I won't tell you that I am a feng shui master and have some attainments in feng shui. ”
Hearing me say this, Old Man Jiang's face suddenly showed an imperceptible expression, that expression was just a flash, and he laughed dryly twice, "The village below has indeed arranged a feng shui array. ”
"Well, the Yin and Yang Shadow Feng Shui Array below is still there, I want to ask if the Feng Shui Array is arranged in your village?" I directly said the name of the Feng Shui Array, just to see what Old Man Jiang's expression was.
Old man Jiang heard me say the Yin and Yang Shadow Feng Shui Array, this time he didn't hide his expression, he was stunned for a moment, "You know this Feng Shui Bureau?" ”
"Yes." I replied directly and simply.
Old man Jiang sighed slightly, "Since you understand, I won't hide it from you, this feng shui array was not arranged by someone from our village, but by a person from the Central Plains." ”
"It was a long time ago, there was a Central Plains man who came to our place, he died at the entrance of the village, my ancestor saved him, this person is a person from the Taoist Gate, he talked to my ancestors about Taoist clothes, and stayed in our village for three years. My ancestor told him about the techniques of our witchcraft, and he left some of his own Taoism. Before leaving, he arranged a yin and yang shadow feng shui array in the village, saying that it was to repay my ancestors for saving his life. ”
"He said that this formation has been lost for many years, and almost no one can break it, I said everything that should be said, you shouldn't have entered Dao Smoke Village by accident." Old man Jiang looked at my face and asked.
Instead of answering his question, I asked, "Do you know who that person is?" ”
Old man Jiang shook his head, "I don't know the specific name anymore, I only know that his surname is Liu." ”
The famous person surnamed Liu in history should be Liu Bowen, who helped Zhu Yuanzhang unify the country. After Liu Bowen helped Zhu Yuanzhang conquer the world, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know why he killed Liu Bowen, which is recorded in the history books. But I thought that a person like Liu Bowen would definitely not die easily.
I heard the old man Jiang say that his surname is Liu here today, and I guess that it is him, he should have used some kind of trick to hide in the mountains, and then came to this place.
However, this is just my guess whether it is him or not, and I can't say for sure.
"Old gentleman, we didn't come here to break the formation, nor did we come to the feng shui array of Cloud Village, but we didn't come across it by chance, and today we came here to ask you to help me translate the words above." As I spoke, I took out the local book and put it in front of Old Man Jiang, "I don't know if you recognize the words on it." ”
Old man Jiang heard me say that he was just trying to help me translate the words in the book, his face immediately softened, he picked up the book and opened it.
After looking at it for a while, Old Man Jiang nodded, this is indeed the previous text of my Wu clan. I don't know where you got this book, but it seems to be some feng shui formations, as well as the ability to exorcise evil spirits.
When I heard the old man say this, I was overjoyed that I had finally found someone who could read the words in the book.
"Old man, can you please translate for me?" I said expectantly.
"That's fine, but I don't think I can do it if I have to translate it completely. I don't understand some of the words in it, but there is a shrine maiden in our village, and she knows more than me, so I'll take you there tomorrow. "Old man Jiang is very enthusiastic.
"Then it's going to trouble the old man." I saluted Old Man Jiang.
