Chapter 43, Fahua Temple
Yang Qian gave the fat brother a look, and the three of them waited for those people to finish before coming to the old man's stall.
"Sir, I've had a bad deal lately, can you give me one too?" The fat brother sat at the table, handed out a wad of banknotes in a manner like the middle-aged man before, and looked at the old man with a smile.
The fortune teller saw the fat brother and the three of them looking at it from a distance for a long time, and he was not too surprised by this move, he looked at the three of them carefully and waved his hand;
"The money of the three of you is hot to collect, so let's take it back."
As the fortune teller spoke, he was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Zhou Qiao.
"Sir, why do you say that?"
Zhou Qiao looked at the fortune teller with a smile, and the glint in his eyes made the old man's heart jump, he coughed dryly twice, and pretended to be calm and said slowly: "The old man looks at the three of you with extraordinary faces, this fat guy has deep eyebrows, the bridge of the nose is high, and it is obvious that there are people who are officials in the ancestors, and the Yin Tang is smooth and open, which means that he has just survived the catastrophe of life and death and has a smooth sail and water, his face is fierce, and he has a fishy smell in his bones, I am afraid that he is engaged in underground work; ”
glanced at Yang Qian next to him again, his face was shining, and he confided a few big words: "This little brother has an extraordinary background, and he is afraid that he is a fellow person, and he is obviously worth a lot, and he is a blessed person at first glance." ”
"As for you, the fact that you can still be safe and sound with a corpse is enough to prove that the three of you are unusual, and please don't embarrass the old and old nameless people......"
After the fortune teller finished speaking, he was in a hurry to leave, but was stopped by Zhou Qiao.
"The old gentleman is as wise as a torch, he is not a mortal, but I am clumsy. I'm afraid that the old gentleman has already guessed what I mean, so don't hide it, I don't know what kind of method the old gentleman used to attract money for others? Do you want to teach you a thing or two? ”
When the fortune teller saw that Zhou Qiao had asked the question he didn't want to answer, he gritted his teeth, snorted coldly, and twisted his head to the side.
Zhou Qiao was not annoyed when he saw this, but continued: "I don't know if the old gentleman knows that everything in this world has a causal cycle and a wonderful principle of yin and yang complementarity; Old man, although your trick of fortune is powerful, but in the end, you still need to rely on the power of heaven, this heaven and earth are not benevolent, all things are not benevolent, all things are unkind, and the common people are dogs; The power of its backlash is not something that ordinary people can bear, and please don't do anything recklessly on the old gentleman, so as not to get into trouble. “
It turned out that Zhou Qiao had already seen that the old man's fortune tricks were using the "Five Ghost Fortune Method"
It is to use a spell to drive the ghost of the five directions in the southeast, northwest and northwest to carry other people's money for it, called fishing partial wealth, windfall, this kind of fortune method is a forbidden technique, although the effect is remarkable, but the sequelae of the disease is also extremely serious,
You must know that people use ghosts to collect money, and ghosts also absorb yang energy from mortals, and these five ghost fortune methods are like extracting the blood and yang energy of mortals to feed them.
When the yin and yang are unbalanced, the five ghosts will regurgitate, and the light will consume longevity, hurt the body, and hurt the soul; The most serious ones may even die in it.
Although this old man has some skills, he is not on the right path, so Zhou Qiao reminded him not to act recklessly.
The fortune teller's face changed after all, and he was silent for a moment, and finally nodded and sighed;
"The old man knows that he is wrong, and I hope that the little brother will ignore the past suspicions and forgive the old man this time, and he will not use this method again in the future!"
When he said the last sentence, the old fortune teller's voice trembled slightly, his heart was like a mirror, he really wanted to start his hands where was the opponent of these three people, the hero did not suffer the loss in front of him, and he recognized it when he met these people.
Zhou Qiao also breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the old man's words, as long as this person was willing to stop acting indiscriminately, he didn't bother to pay attention to other things, after all, it was better not to make enemies with others easily when walking around.
The three of them ate and drank well for three days before they planned to go to Fahua Temple to solve the problem of yin and yang ghost babies.
When arriving at Fahua Temple, it is the afternoon, the sun is shining, the majestic temple is particularly magnificent, and the people who go to Fahua Temple to pray for God and worship Buddha are also endless, and the incense is prosperous!
The three of them walked up the mountain slowly with the flow of people, and after a few steps, the fat brother's complaining voice came, "Damn, did you say that this person who repaired the temple was lacking in heart, why did you repair so many steps, I want to die of exhaustion fat brother."
Yang Qian glanced at the fat brother who was tired and panting after not climbing a few steps, and couldn't help but smile and quipped, "Fat brother, it seems that you should lose your fat, how can you climb a step so hard!" Where is this, not even halfway up the mountain! “
"The steps of this Fahua Temple have 108 steps, the Buddhist door is said to compare the steps to a method, every step means to get rid of a kind of trouble and a kind of hope, fat brother, as long as you hold a pious heart, work hard, insist on persistence, and you will soon be able to climb to the top of the mountain."
When the fat brother heard that there were 108 steps, he rolled his eyes at Yang Gan, and he didn't have a good airway; "Don't fool me there, you don't have a backache when you stand and talk, do my fat brother still have a life when these 108 steps climb down?"
"Or... You guys go up to do errands, fat brother, I'm waiting for you at the bottom of the mountain? “
After the fat brother finished speaking, a pair of big thief eyes stared directly at Yang Qian and Zhou Qiao;
Zhou Qiao looked at the fat brother's fat belly, the corners of his mouth twitched a few times with sweat on his forehead, and finally nodded helplessly.
"Fat brother, you are really lazy, with your physical strength, I really don't know how you fished out those bronze porcelain from the tomb alive in the first place?" Yang Qian leaned in front of the fat brother and patted the fat brother's shoulder speechlessly, muttering in a low voice.
"Hey...... The mountain people have their own tricks! ~Buddha said~Don't say~Don't say"
The fat brother laughed a few times, but the smile was really a little obscene, and Yang Qian and Zhou Qiao were both a little speechless.
In this way, the original threesome became Zhou Qiao and Yang Gan going up the mountain;
Arrive at the top of the mountain, only to see a cloud and mist, the fairy spirit is pressing, a big hall in the middle stands in front of you, the plaque of the temple is written with three big characters of Fahua Temple, there are sculptures left on the door wall, sculptures, each sculpture is lifelike, the whole temple lined with gold and splendor, without losing the majesty and solemnity. There is a faint sound of a bell in the distance, which makes people feel quiet and peaceful, and their hearts are relaxed.
Zhou Qiao stepped into the hall with his feet, the hall was simple and elegant, the sandalwood tables and chairs were readily available, many gods and Buddhas were enshrined, and the hall was filled with a faint incense, which was quite elegant.
In the middle of the main hall, there sat a young monk with round cheeks that looked very festive, knocking on the wooden fish, twisting the rosary in his hand, and pursing his lips, looking serious.
Seeing Zhou Qiao and Yang Qian coming in, the monk opened his eyes, glanced at the two of them, closed them again, and said something in his mouth, as if he hadn't noticed Zhou Qiao and the two at all.
Zhou Qiao and the two didn't mind, and walked straight to the center of the hall, Zhou Qiao arched his hand at the monk, and said straight to the point, "This master, our two brothers came not to ask God to worship Buddha, but to find a high monk in your temple, Master Puhui, we have a letter written by his friend Ji Zen Master, we have something to ask for, I don't know if we can pass it." ”
"Master Puhui? Master Puhui is doing homework for the monks, and there are no guests for the time being, so you should come back another day" The monk still had no expression and replied lightly.
Yang Qian's brows furrowed, and he was about to have a seizure, but Zhou Qiao on the side grabbed him and signaled him to be calm.
Zhou Qiao smiled at the monk and said, "Oh~ It turns out that Master Puhui is busy, so let's wait here for the two of us, wait for Master Puhui to finish something, and I'm tired of it!" ”
After speaking, he pulled Yang Qian and sat down on the table and chair on the side, without urging, looking leisurely.
However, when the young monk saw the two of them sitting down, his face showed a trace of impatience, but he didn't dare to attack easily because of the rules of the Buddhist temple, so he snorted coldly and continued to knock on the wooden fish.
