Chapter Thirty-Seven: Master Zu, Emperor of Xudu

I've come to terms with the fact that I'm about to become a corpse collector.

At this time, I didn't say anything when I heard Song Corpse say this.

As long as you can survive and earn money, you will collect the corpse.

It's better than dying and no one will send my father to the end.

Besides, Song Corpse didn't let me give up my studies.

Anyway, this semester has come to an end, and the next semester will start with an internship......

Song corpse head packed up the fishing gear at this time, and asked me to help him carry the box and fishing gear.

He's like an eye-popping bag.

Holding the big herring with his bare hands, he walked in front alone.

When he got out of the dock, he walked to the edge of someone's barbecue stall, for fear that others would not see him.

When he came out of the dock, he walked about four or five hundred meters, and forced him to walk out for forty minutes.

Finally, we came to a place called Yin Yang Street.

Walking along the street, the thirteenth store is the store of Song Corpse.

I looked up, and it wasn't what I had imagined.

I thought that the shop opened by Song Corpse, who collected corpses, should be a white shop.

For example, a dragon for red and white ceremonies, what feng shui hall and the like.

But as a result, the shop opened by Song Corpse turned out to be a fishing tackle shop.

I got the name and also made a special dirt "fishing tackle shop".

However, the scale of this fishing tackle shop is quite large.

There are three large entrances, and the decoration looks very luxurious.

Song Corpse stood at the door and said to me:

"Little ginger! This is my shop, so make do with it! ”

"Very good!"

I replied with a smile.

Song corpse head "hahaha" laughed a few times:

"In addition to collecting corpses, that's what I have as a hobby......"

As he spoke, he put down the big herring in his hand and opened the glass door.

I also followed Song's corpse into the shop.

After turning on the lights, I found that the interior space was quite spacious and decorated really well.

In addition to the display of various fishing rods, shelves of various bait and fishing gear, there is also a large aquarium ecological box.

He was obviously a corpse collector, but he set up a fishing tackle shop.

Song Corpse didn't introduce too much, but continued to say to me:

"Follow me upstairs, let's go and worship Master Zu."

I said "um" and followed Song's corpse head inside.

The shop is quite large, and it still has two floors.

On the innermost side of the fishing tackle shop is a kitchen and a small dining room.

And then there's a wooden staircase that goes up.

Stepping on the stairs to the second floor, this floor is more than one person high.

There are three rooms, one of which is locked.

Outside is the living room with a big TV.

On the side of the stairs in the living room, there is a shrine dedicated to the shrine.

Covered with a red cloth, I don't know what is being offered.

I could only see a small copper stove that was about to fill with incense ash.

Song took me directly to the shrine, took out three sticks of incense and lit them, and bowed to the shrine covered with red cloth.

The mouth said:

"Master Zu is on top.

The disciple Song Decai has a relationship with the boy Jiang Ning.

decided to accept him as a disciple and pass on the spell of the Yin Gate.

Looking at the patriarch's witness, the gift is auspicious. ”

After speaking, the corpse of Song bowed respectfully and bowed three more times.

Then three sticks of incense were inserted into the incense burner.

At the same time, he reached out and took down the red cloth that covered the shrine ranking.

That's when I saw what was inside.

A black shrine frame with a red tablet standing inside.

Six gold letters are written on it.

"The throne of the emperor of Xudu".

I know all this, Netherworld!

I don't know much about this Emperor of Xudu.

Just by looking at the name, I know that the ancestor I worship must be very powerful.

I was looking at the worship of the spiritual seat, and the head of the corpse of Song spoke;

"Jiang Ning, I will accept you as an apprentice in front of Master Zu today.

I hope that in the future, you will be a good person and study hard.

Don't take evil as small, don't take good as small. ”

Hearing this, I didn't hesitate any longer.

Seeing that there was a tea bowl next to him, he poured a cup of herbal tea directly.

knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to Song's corpse.

Pick up that bowl of herbal tea:

"Master, the apprentice remembers the teachings, please drink tea!"

In fact, when the master first started, he didn't care about these details at all.

It's just that I am suitable, and I have a bit of fate with him, and he just wants to accept me as a disciple.

But when he saw me so polite, he smiled at me:

"Good, good!"

After speaking, he took the herbal tea I picked up and took a small sip.

He finished his tea and put the tea bowl away.

Then he spoke to me:

"Little ginger!

Since I will accept you as an apprentice today, then as a teacher, I will give you a Dharma name.

With the Dharma name, you will have a clear feeling of the blessings you have received.

And the ancestor below can also know that there is a disciple like you.

When I go down later, I can take care of it somewhat. ”

I looked at the master and didn't quite understand.

But he didn't speak.

And the master thought about it, and then said to me:

"You are light, and your life is too thin.

If you are in trouble, you can call it misfortune! ”

Crossing the doom.

The name sounds okay, and it's auspicious.

And I don't mind that.

It doesn't matter what it's called, just save your life.

Seeing that I had no opinion, Master picked up the pen next to him.

Quickly on a piece of yellow paper, I wrote my birth date and my legal name.

In front of me, directly in front of the grandfather's tablet, I burned the yellow paper.

And motioned to me to kowtow to my grandfather.

He also said that he told me to stop, so I could stop.

I haven't ever worshipped the master, thinking that this is a rule of entry.

He bowed to the tablet of the grandfather.

One, two, three......

The master stared at the yellow paper in the brazier.

It wasn't until I had finished worshipping eighteen that the yellow paper talisman in the brazier was burned.

That's when the master told me to stop.

I felt like my head was spinning.

The master, on the other hand, looked at me with a look of surprise and said:

"Little Jiang, you're amazing.

When Yu Long and I got started, we kowtowed three times and it was over.

You worship your ancestors, and you kowtow eighteen times in a row.

One head is blessed, and the ancestor blesses eighteen rings.

It seems that the patriarch is very satisfied with you, a beginner disciple! ”

As he spoke, he patted me on the shoulder and motioned for me to get up.

Look at my eyes, full of joy.

I smiled awkwardly.

Eighteen kowtows on my head, blessed or not, I don't feel it.

I'm still wondering, is the paper too damp, so it burns too slowly?

The process of my apprenticeship was very simple.

kowtowed a few times, recognized the ancestor master, took a legal name of "crossing the doom", and burned the paper to be finished.

Master Song didn't teach me anything right away.

Just pointed me to a room.

Said I'd sleep in that room tonight.

When I woke up, he accompanied me to the school to check on the situation.

Finish my business first.

If there is something dirty, then ask for blessings and stabilize the four misfortunes on me.

Finally, take me to receive the blessings given by my grandfather.

When I heard this, I was stunned.

The front is easy to understand.

There's something to do.

Can you go to receive the "blessing" of the patriarch?

Is this thing really there?

I asked curiously:

"Master, is this blessing real? Can you still get it? ”

As a result, the master smiled:

"Nonsense!

I don't know anything else.

But we have this blessing in our vein.

Why else would you kowtow so much? ”
