Chapter 2: The Three Views Are Broken
When he came to the bungalow, the old Taoist went straight to the middle door and pushed the door in.
Ren Ning hesitated a little and followed.
The room is not big, the furnishings inside are very simple, the most conspicuous is a bed, a table, two wooden chairs, and a wooden cabinet next to the bed, which is intended to be used to store clothes.
When he came to the table, the old Taoist chief motioned for Ren Ning to sit down, took two cups, poured water on them respectively, and pushed one of the cups in front of Ren Ning, and then sat down by himself.
"The old Taoist surname is Fu, and the legal name is Tiancheng, I don't know what to call the layman?"
Ren Ning hurriedly replied: "The boy's surname is Ren, and his single name is Ning." ”
He is somewhat restrained, after all, the education he received since he was a child, these Taoist priests or something, they are all people who engage in feudal superstition, clergy, and it is best to stay away.
Fu Daochang smiled slightly, and joked: "Ren Jushi doesn't have to be nervous, Lao Dao is not a tiger, and he won't eat you." ”
"I wonder if you can tell me about the process of getting this bronze mirror?"
I don't know if it was because of the special affinity on Fu Daochang's body, or for some other reason, Ren Ning gradually relaxed.
He pushed the bronze mirror from the table to the old Taoist leader, and then told him how he bought the bronze mirror from the flower and bird market, and also told him about the strange dreams he had recently.
Fu Daochang rubbed the bronze mirror in his hand, his eyes were full of memories, and he slowly said something that Ren Ning expected and unexpected.
It turns out that the Lotus View was still very big many years ago, and it was not only a small courtyard like today, but a building covering an area of thousands of square meters.
At that time, there were more than 20 Taoist priests of all sizes in the temple.
That year, when the Anti-Japanese War broke out, the Taoist priests in the temple went to participate in the war en masse, leaving only Fu Tiancheng, who was the youngest at the time, to keep watch.
At that time, Fu Tiancheng was seventeen years old.
Ren Ning was secretly frightened, the old Taoist in front of him, who looked to be in his seventies, wasn't his actual age nearly a hundred?
With the old Taoist leader's narration, it also confirmed his conjecture, and none of the more than 20 Taoist masters who went out to participate in the war came back.
It's not that I don't want to come back, but it's very likely...... All killed!
At the beginning, some of the Taoist priests who died in the battle sent their ashes back, and then there was no news of anything.
Fu Tiancheng guarded the Taoist temple alone, but he couldn't completely defend it. In that year, he was forcibly returned to the world, and the Taoist temple was destroyed.
It wasn't until the eighties that he came back alone and barely restored the main hall.
The purpose is to wait for the return of the same door, waiting for the possibility of that eventuality.
It's a pity that for so many years, none of the elders and brothers in the view have returned.
......
An inexplicable emotion bred in Ren Ning's heart, hot-blooded? Tragic? Or maybe it's something else, he can't tell the difference at this point.
I just felt very uncomfortable, and before I knew it, my eyes were moist.
After a while, he heard Fu Dao Chang say: "This bronze mirror is my senior brother Li Tiande's magic weapon, maybe it is related to you, and under the connection of the breath, you will have those dreams." ”
"Now, I will give you two choices, one is that I will take back this bronze mirror and give you eight thousand yuan; The second is that you keep the bronze mirror, I will dispose of the information in the bronze mirror, and you will not have those strange dreams if you stay by your side. ”
Ren Ning was a little entangled, originally came to the Lotus Temple to send the bronze mirror away, but after listening to the story, with an inexplicable feeling, he was very reluctant to send this bronze mirror.
Even if the price of eight thousand given by the Taoist chief is really tempting.
However, he also knew that although he bought this bronze mirror, although the real owner was not there, if he had to say it, the old Taoist in front of him was more qualified to own this bronze mirror.
Send back? Remain?
Suddenly, he remembered those scenes in his dream, and couldn't help but ask, "Dao Chief, are those scenes in my dream real?" For example, martial arts, such as spells, is it true? ”
Fu Tiancheng smiled slightly, put the mirror on the table, twisted his right hand in front of him, pinched it into a trick, pointed at the mirror on the table, and shouted softly: "Get up!" ”
In the next second, a magical scene appeared: the bronze mirror on the table floated up with the old Taoist's 'up', and with the old Taoist's gesture command, the bronze mirror actually circled around the two.
Ren Ning suddenly felt that the three views he had formed for more than 20 years had been ruthlessly shattered, and the fragments were thrown on the ground and crushed.
Unexpectedly...... It turned out to be true!
Spell! Magic weapon!
It's written in a novel, it's not a lie?!
Those scenes in the dream, aren't they unreal?!
He subconsciously rubbed his eyes, suspecting that the scene in front of him was just an illusion.
When he stretched out his hand and wanted to touch the bronze mirror flying in the air, the bronze mirror flew directly over and landed on his hand.
A little cold, and a little pressing sensation came, and he was sure that what he was seeing was not an illusion, but a real one.
For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
It's amazing!
At this time, the voice of Fu Tiancheng came from his ears: "Don't be too surprised, if you are interested, I can teach you." ”
Ren Ning was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed, put the bronze mirror on the table, stood up, pushed away the chair, knelt down directly in front of the old Taoist, kowtowed three times, and before he could shout "Master", he felt a surge of strength from the ground and helped him up.
Fu Tiancheng smiled and said, "I just preached you, but I didn't say that I wanted to accept you as an apprentice." ”
Ren Ning opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.
In fact, after the impulse, he remembered that he was an only child at home, and he really wanted to be a Taoist priest, but he was afraid that he would not be able to pass the level at home.
Next, Fu Tiancheng took the bronze mirror, stretched out his hand and wiped it gently, then handed it to Ren Ning, and said, "Okay, you can rest assured that the mirror will not be affected by it and have those strange dreams in the future." ”
Ren Ning took the mirror and thanked him again and again.
Only then did he find that the rust stains on the mirror that he couldn't wash off repeatedly with a steel wool ball had disappeared, and the whole mirror looked new, just like a brand new copper mirror.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes just now, he would have wondered if the mirror in his hand had been transferred.
Rubbing the mirror in his hand, Ren Ning asked weakly, "Dao Chief, is that...... I don't know how much study fee it will take...... That, red envelope? ”
A poor student who has just graduated and has not yet found a job cannot afford the high cost of tuition.
Of course, he didn't have any problem with paying the tuition, let alone such a magical spell. But, after all, spells can't be eaten, and he always has to think about how to live.
Fu Tiancheng glanced at Ren Ning and said with a smile: "You haven't worked yet, right?" Why don't you think about coming to Guanli to help do something? ”
