Chapter 242: The Past
I took a few high-end looking gift boxes from the warehouse, took a taxi and went to Bandung Temple.
When I got there, Master Wu Nian had just returned to the meditation room after doing a ritual in front of him.
"Here we go!" Master Wunian smiled slightly and looked at the things in my hand, "Isn't it good for you to give these to those who need them?" ”
"You need it too!" I laughed, "These are all said to increase immunity!" ”
"Good!" Master Wu Nian accepted it with a smile, "Sit down!" ”
I sat across from him and looked at the face full of Buddha's light, and the chaotic emotions that had been in place gradually calmed down.
"When I saw Hongyan going north this morning, I knew that there must be a letter coming from afar, but I don't have it here, it must be your master!" Master Wunian said slowly.
"Yes!" I replied, taking out the piece of paper from Master from my bag and handing it over, "This is it! ”
Master Wunian took it and looked at it, was slightly stunned for a moment, returned it to me with a smile, and nodded, "That's true!" ”
I didn't answer, and took out Tang Tiande's letter that Tang Lian left with me, "This is Tang Tiande's letter to Tang Lian." ”
This time, the smile on Master Wunian's face really disappeared.
He looked back and forth at the two letters, and finally, he actually sighed and returned both letters to me.
"I still can't hide from it!" He sighed again.
My heart tightened, "What's the hard way to get by?" Is it a grudge between my master and Tang Tiande? Last time Tang Tiande told me that he and my master are brothers, why have they reached this point today? ”
"Everything in the world has cause and effect, and the cycle goes on and on, from generation to generation!" Master Wu Nian said meaningfully, "I was hesitant to ask you to tell you something, how much? How much to keep? It all depends on what the message from your master is! Since they've all sent back the same message, I'll tell you all about it! ”
I sat upright and listened intently.
"At that time, your division was very prosperous!" Master Wunian began to speak.
More than 50 years ago, China was in a chaotic situation.
Many foreign forces have run rampant in the country, and countless cultural relics and monuments have been stolen.
The most prestigious feng shui sect in China, everyone is familiar with Xuankong, Bazhai, Sanyuan, Sanhe, Jiuxing, Yang Gong, Jinsuo Yuguan (Yin and Yang) and so on, and the big sect is divided into a number of small sects.
There are also schools of thought among the people, and those are scholars who study Feng Shui, and according to the direction of their research, they are divided into formal schools and rational schools. And the division where my master and Tang Tiande were back then was not any of them here.
If you want to count, I am afraid that you must count the most original sect of all these sects and schools, the "Wei Sect" inherited from the Western Zhou Dynasty!
The tricky door is not the tricky door among the thousands of doors that are now circulating on the rivers and lakes, but the "tricky" door that performs weird tricks and can break the meaning of heaven.
This sect is very secretive, hidden in the depths of the Kunlun Mountains in Huaguo, a place where almost no one has set foot.
In the division, almost all of them were inherited by orphans who were picked up, learning art and skills, and when they were full of teachers, after passing the assessment, they left the division and entered the rivers and lakes, and never returned to the division in this life.
And after they go out of the mountain gate, some of them will establish sects, which are the ones that everyone knows on the rivers and lakes.
And some people will use their own skills to eat, like Wu Ming and Tang Tiande.
It's just that they grew up together since childhood, and they also came out of school together.
After traveling with the great rivers and mountains of the motherland, he chose Jiangcheng as his habitat.
Originally, the two planned to open a feng shui shop together, one helped people interpret hexagrams and look at their faces in the store, and the other went out to help people look at feng shui and choose a yin house.
Because of the personalities of the two, Wu Ming stayed in the store, and Tang Tiande would often go out.
It's just that as time goes by, the situation outside becomes more and more chaotic, and suddenly many foreign forces appear.
They searched for cultural relics everywhere in China, dug graves and dug graves, and I don't know how many national treasures were lost abroad in vain.
Wu Ming often asks divination to see when the situation will turn around, and he also takes the opportunity to hide many cultural relics.
And Tang Tiande has been going out for longer and longer, and every time he comes back, he will bring back a lot of national treasures and cultural relics.
Until the last time, after Tang Tiande left, he didn't come back for a long time.
Wu Ming asked the hexagram, showing that there was more luck and less luck, and he was anxious.
Because Tang Tiande has already married a wife and is already pregnant, if there are three long and two short, how can they live as orphans and widows?
Just as he was about to leave to look for Tang Tiande, Tang Tiande suddenly came back, and brought back two seriously injured people and a national treasure, a bronze wok.
This bronze wok, which was later donated to the National Museum of China by Wu Ming and other cultural relics, can still be seen when you look at it now.
But that's another story.
But when Wu Ming saw him come back with people and things, he was first surprised, and then shocked beyond words.
Although these two injured people don't know their identities, their bearing and physiognomy are actually righteous people.
Therefore, Wu Ming didn't ask, first help Tang Tiande settle the people, and then heal them.
After finishing his work, Wu Ming took Tang Tiandra aside and questioned.
"Senior brother, who are these two? How did you get hurt? ”
Tang Tiande drank tea and breathed a sigh of relief before saying: "We found that a group of South Asians were digging an ancient tomb, so we quietly followed, and after setting up a maze array to trap them while they were not paying attention, we brought this national treasure back!" The two of them were wounded by those South Asians! I think they all rescued them and brought them back to protect the national treasure. ”
After Wu Ming heard this, he was relieved.
"In that case, you'd better send them out as soon as possible, it's not safe here! My sister-in-law is about to give birth, so she can't make a mistake! Wu Ming said.
Tang Tiande nodded, "I understand, after today, when they wake up tomorrow, I will find a way to send them away." You look at the store first, and I'll go see your sister-in-law! ”
Then, Tang Tiande sent the people away, and the bronze wok was also hidden by them.
Tang Tiande didn't go out again, and waited for his wife to give birth to a son for him, and the moon was full of joy before he started to go out to do things again.
At that time, the turmoil outside became even more severe, and people came to the door almost every day to beg them to see the Yin Mansion.
Tang Tiande couldn't be busy alone, and now that his wife had given birth, Wu Ming also began to go out to do things.
Because the world is chaotic, there is chaos during the day, and there are many ghosts at night.
Therefore, the two agreed that they must come back before dark every day.
However, one day, Wu Ming helped a family come back early after seeing the Yin House, but he didn't expect to see Tang Tiande in a teahouse on the corner of the street.
Across from him sat a blonde foreigner, and between them sat a gilded statue of Guanyin.
The height of the ruler, combined with the appearance characteristics of Guanyin and the lotus seat, even if it is separated by a street, Wu Ming can recognize it at a glance, it is a thing of the Tang Dynasty.
He wondered if Tang Tiande saw a scene that made him angry when he wanted to buy the Guanyin statue back from this foreigner.
The foreigner actually took out a few gold bars and handed them to Tang Tiande.
After Tang Tiande took it, he turned it upside down, got up and left, leaving the statue of Guanyin.
Wu Ming hid in the corner, angry in his heart, he didn't expect that Tang Tiande would actually do the business of reselling cultural relics behind his back!
