(Liu Xiaodao, that is, Liu Dagger's brother Liu in the text, his real name is inconvenient to reveal, so let's call him Liu Xiaodao.) ）

At eight o'clock in the evening, in a bachelor apartment, Liu Xiaodao, who had just finished a soul-sending ceremony, was hurriedly sorting out the cloth bag he used for his work, and said in his mouth: "The soul has been sent away, you can sleep well in the future, but I want to remind you that there is no shortcut in life, and crooked ways will not make you live a better life, but will ruin you inadvertently." ”

"Well, thank you, Master Liu, you've been busy for so long, I'll invite you to have supper." It was a young woman who answered.

Liu Xiaodao looked at the watch on his wrist, shook his head and said, "You're polite, it's too late, I still have something to do, so I'll leave first." The fee will be given to you a whole amount, two thousand, you give one thousand first, and then give me the balance after a month without this trouble, and I will send the bank card number to your mobile phone later. ”

He hadn't eaten dinner, he was actually quite hungry, and if he wanted to change to his usual life, he might have agreed to come down. It's just that today is the last day of his netherworld friend Liu Dagger in the yang world.

The female owner took out a thousand yuan, handed it to Liu Xiaodao and said, "Thank you." ”

Liu Xiaodao took the money, put it in his pocket, said goodbye, and left the woman's house.

On the way back, Liu Xiaodao's heart was empty, he kept thinking about Liu Dagger, as a person who was chosen by the underworld, he was almost broken up by the underworld. Although Liu Dagger didn't care about this on the surface, in Liu Xiaodao's own opinion, this was a little unfair. He was even thinking about whether he should do something for Liu Dagger at the last moment.

However, he also knew very well that if he was connived at a Taoist, he would not be able to meddle in the affairs of the underworld.

"Dididi......!" On a one-way two-lane road in the suburbs, Liu Xiaodao drove and lost his mind, and the car behind him honked its horn frantically, signaling him to either hurry up or pull over and don't walk in the middle of the road.

Liu Xiaodao put aside those chaotic thoughts, stepped on the accelerator and moved the car to the right lane.

Even though Liu Xiaodao sped up the speed, the car behind him still overtook him with a "boom", and when he overtook him, there was a woman in the back seat of the car who opened the window and shouted to Liu Xiaodao: "Drop the thunder Lou Mu." ”

"Your sister, hurry to reincarnate?" Liu Xian also replied loudly, and followed with one foot on the accelerator.

The car in front of it was getting faster and faster, and it seemed to be more than eighty on this narrow road.

Liu Xiaodao let go of the accelerator and said, "Forget it, if you don't want to die, I'll die." As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that the car that had thrown off him for dozens of meters suddenly threw a round thing from the back seat.

I took a closer look at the reunion thing, and it was still moving after it landed.

"Holy!" Liu Xiaodao secretly scolded in his heart, what they threw out was either a cat or a dog, at such a fast speed, that thing could still live?

Liu Xiaodao hurriedly pulled over and stopped the car, and quickly ran towards the small animal that was thrown from the car.

It was a small poodle, and the place where it landed was a pile of rubble, and inertia took it out more than ten meters, covered in blood, and already dying.

Liu Xiaodao quickly took off his clothes, put the puppy on it, then wrapped it up and got into the car, and drove quickly towards a small pet hospital outside his community.

At that time, it was already more than nine o'clock in the evening, almost ten o'clock in the evening, and the small pet hospital had already left work, Liu Xiaodao held the puppy in his hand, and anxiously dialed the contact number outside the store.

"Hello? Dr. Wang? My puppy is injured and the situation is dangerous, I am in front of your shop now, can you come over and take a look. Liu Xiaodao said anxiously.

"I'm Dr. Wang, but we're off work now, why don't you bring it back tomorrow?" Dr. Wang on the other side of the phone said lightly.

Liu Xiaodao hurriedly said: "Don't don't, it's definitely late tomorrow, so come over and help take a look." ”

"There is an additional fee for the evening visit, can you afford it?" Dr. Wang said unhurriedly.

Liu Xiaodao said simply: "You can afford it, you can come over now." ”

There was a pause and said, "Okay, in addition to the medical expenses, there will be an additional two hundred additional medical fees." ”

"Okay, come over quickly, how long will it take?" Liu Xiaodao asked.

"I live in the community, ten minutes away."

"Well, you hurry up a bit."

Liu Xiaodao hung up the phone and looked at the puppy that was already twitching, his belly had been cut by a sharp stone, and he could even vaguely see the intestines inside. He was in a hurry, and he didn't know what to do.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, the doctor arrived, his demeanor was not nervous at all, he didn't even look at the puppy and opened the door of the pet hospital directly, and said while opening the door: "I was called by you while eating, you put the puppy on the table first, and I went to wash my hands." ”

Liu Xiaodao held his breath, slowly put the puppy on the table, and waited for a minute, but the doctor still didn't come out.

"Doctor Wang, can you hurry up?" Liu Xiaodao said coldly, trying his best to suppress the anger in his heart, in his opinion, maybe one minute earlier treatment, it can be retrieved, one minute late treatment, maybe the best time for treatment will be missed.

The doctor heard Liu Xiaodao's urging before he dragged out, as soon as he came out, he looked around the puppy, and said: "The injury is too serious, it may take a lot of money to treat, first of all, a major operation, many wounds need to be cleaned and sutured, I didn't have much to save me, you sent it too late....."

"Doctor, you should do it quickly, don't think about the cost yet." Liu Xiaodao gritted his teeth and said, there is one sentence he didn't say, that is, if you hurry up, maybe it will be a different situation.

The doctor nodded, "I'll help him set the internal organs in place first, and then clean the wound and suture the wound, and give him a few injections of medicine, and..."

"Okay, don't say so much, do your best." Liu Xiaodao directly interrupted the doctor's words.

The doctor nodded, opened a small box and said, "The cost of the first time is about one thousand two, and I can't guarantee whether it can be saved." ”

Liu Xiaodao said: "Well, as long as you do your best, whether you can keep it depends on its own creation." ”

Seeing that he had no opinion on the price, he began to do the operation wholeheartedly. Liu Xiaodao walked out of the hospital and paced outside, on the one hand, he wanted to go home early to see Liu Dagger, and on the other hand, he was worried about the puppy.

An hour later, the doctor came out and said, "It's been bandaged, you can take it back for the rest of the night, and if you survive tonight and still breathe, then there is hope." ”

Liu Xiaodao nodded, took the initiative to count one thousand two and handed it to the doctor, the doctor said that there was still a difference of two hundred for the visit fee, and Liu Xiaodao took another two hundred to him. Also bought a pet crate over there for that puppy.

When I got home, it was already eleven o'clock. Liu Dagger didn't go out for a walk tonight, but sat on the sofa and watched TV and waited for Liu Xiaodao to come back.

After Liu Xiaodao came back, he put the puppy down, looked at the reluctant Liu Dagger and said, "What? Can't bear me? ”

Liu Dagger smiled and said, "Brother Liu, is there a dog in the box?" ”

Liu Xiaodao hatefully told those people about throwing dogs.

Liu Dagger sighed, looked at Liu Xiaodao and said: "Brother Liu, I will leave when I am finished, I will be reincarnated on time when I am ugly, and I will go to say goodbye to them when I am ugly." ”

Liu Xiaodao smiled, "Actually, you're still looking forward to it in your heart, I know that." ”

"It's a little expected, I want the ninth reincarnation to be over soon, I still have one more thing to tell you."

"What's the matter?"

"It's just that I saw my experience of reincarnation in the last ninth life, the first three lives were all beasts, and the next six lives were all alone."

"Isn't that exactly what you want, Yu Bingqing is the only one in your fate, and your ninth reincarnation should be like this."

"Yes, I'm not complaining, I'm just indebted to this ninth reincarnation for the shortcomings and courage, I don't know what will happen in the next two calamities of the Quelling Rebellion, Brother Liu, do you think the underworld is reliable? I'm afraid that something will happen before the reincarnation of the Ninth is over. ”

"The underworld should be reliable, you've already experienced it once, don't think too much, now that you've made your choice, go on bravely." Liu Xiaodao comforted Liu Dagger, who lacked courage, and said in his heart, if he were Liu Xiaodao himself, he would also be worried, not because he didn't have the courage to face it, but because he was afraid of losing the feelings that needed to span centuries.

Liu Dagger nodded and said, "I know all this, it's just ......"

"Boom... Boom! Before Liu Dagger finished speaking, the puppy in the pet kennel suddenly moved.

Liu Xiaodao felt that he got up and went over to see that the puppy just barked twice in pain, and then there was no movement, not even breathing.

"Alas, it can't be saved, its hour has come, and the soul has come out, and is greeting you and thanking you." Liu Dagger shook his head and said with a sigh.

Liu Xiaodao nodded, "Everyone has their own lives, and dogs are the same, let me help it do a small ritual to overdo it." ”

Liu Xiaodao invited a stick of incense to guide the road and helped the puppy do a supernatural ritual, which was very simple and only took three minutes.

After sending away the puppy's soul, Liu Dagger joked and said: "Brother Liu, I'm also leaving, alas, I will be an animal in the next life, I hope it will not be as miserable as this dog, and it will be killed directly." ”

Liu Xiaodao frowned and said, "Well, there is no banquet in the world that will not be dispersed, I can only wish you good luck." ”

"Well, Brother Liu, it's a pleasure to meet you, this separation, you may never see you again......"

"Wait a while, Brother Liu, I suddenly thought of a way." Liu Xiaodao said with a smile, and pointed to the pet box.

Liu Dagger looked at the pet box suspiciously, stunned for a moment, and then laughed out loud.

"When did you come to be reincarnated?" Liu Xiaodao looked at Liu Dagger and said.

Liu Dagger smiled and said: "When the time comes, it will be my hour, Brother Liu, you can use the eight characters of this hour, and then combine the eight characters and names of my life to make ......."

"I know this method, I don't need you to teach it, when the time comes, you just need to follow the guidance of the golden light and come over. Hahaha. Liu Xiaodao was still laughing, and he couldn't even straighten his waist with a smile.

Liu Dagger looked at Liu Xiaodao and said a little speechlessly: "Is it so funny?" ”

Liu Xiaodao forcibly put away his smile, and a small voice would still squeeze out from his lips from time to time, "This is a good thing for you, I can often take you over to see Wen Jing, although you have no memory, you can't speak......"

"Okay, it's such a happy decision, Brother Liu, I'll go to the underworld first, and there's still an hour to say goodbye to them, you are optimistic about the time, as soon as the time comes, the practice of attracting souls on time, don't make a mistake about the eight characters of two hours." Liu Dagger also interrupted Liu Xiaodao, and stood up, raising his hand to mark the passage to the underworld.

Liu Xiaodao nodded, looked at the sound of Liu Dagger disappearing, and began to raise the altar, preparing to lure Liu Dagger's soul into the beast path to this puppy as soon as the time came.

One hour is enough to make the body of a dog whose soul has left stiff, so after Liu Xiaodao prepared the altar, he turned on the heating at home to the highest, took out the little sun used for heating in winter, took a picture of the puppy's corpse, and constantly massaged the puppy's body with his hands to keep the puppy's corpse not stiff.

Although this puppy is covered in wounds, and even its soul has left its body because of this, this does not mean that the dog's body is completely lifeless, it can only mean that the time of this puppy has come.

Dogs are no better than people, the soul is relatively simple, and the three souls and seven spirits are not so complicated, so as long as the soul of the newly reincarnated Liu Dagger can be introduced, this body can be brought back to life, and then a magic thing can be done to stabilize the soul in the body of this puppy. After three hours, Liu Dagger's soul will adapt to this body, and thus truly become this dog.

This is a bit of cheating, but it is harmless, for the underworld, as long as Liu Dagger accumulates the reincarnation of the beast path three times, as for what kind of beast it becomes, whose beast it becomes, and how it becomes a beast, they will not interfere.

"Hehe, Xiao Liu, you are trying to lure souls and change your life to disturb the path of reincarnation." An ethereal voice came abruptly from behind Liu Xiaodao.

Liu Xiaodao turned his head to look, it turned out that his five rampant soldiers and horses had come out, and at this moment, he was watching the movements in Liu Xiaodao's hands intently, and seemed to be a little worried about him.

Liu Xiaodao smiled and said, "Master Wuyan, you misunderstood, it's not humane reincarnation, it's just a friend who threw himself into the animal path, I just lured his soul to it, this doesn't mean disrupting the reincarnation path, right?" ”

Wu was rampant, turned around and walked into the room, and said, "That's fine, but you need to be a little particular about choosing a name." ”

Liu Xiaodao snorted and continued to massage the puppy's body at a high frequency.

Three minutes before Yin, Liu Dagger had already bid farewell to his friend in the underworld, and came to the reincarnation entrance of the Animal Dao with Xiang Feilong. At the same time, Liu Xiaodao also stopped massaging the puppy's body frequently, and began to do soul-attracting rituals in front of the altar.

At this time, the indoor temperature had exceeded forty degrees, and he was sweating like rain, but he was still extremely happy when he thought of being able to protect his friend Liu Dagger I and even the third beast Dao reincarnation.

After the soul attraction ritual was completed, a faint golden light that only Liu Dagger and Xiang Feilong, who brought Liu Dagger, could see, flickered in the beast reincarnation path, Liu Dagger pointed to the faint golden light and said to Xiang Feilong with a smile, "Brother Feilong, please do me a favor." ”

Xiang Feilong smiled understandingly, raised his hand and took away Liu Dagger's natal spiritual wisdom, and sent Liu Dagger into the faint golden light in the reincarnation passage of the Animal Dao.

"Boom!" At the same time that Liu Dagger had just entered the faint golden light, the puppy lying in the pet box in Liu Xiaodao's house in the yang world suddenly twitched, and hit his head on the wall of the plastic box of the pet box, making a crisp sound.

The corners of Liu Xiaodao's mouth twitched, and he smiled slightly and said, "It's done." ”

The puppy opened his eyes slightly, glanced at Liu Xiaodao, and snorted lightly in response, Liu Xiaodao knew very well in his heart. It's not because the puppy knows him, because at this time, Liu Dagger's soul, which was fused with the puppy's body, has no memory, and it only understands instinctive life.

But these are no longer important, to be able to take care of Liu Dagger, who has fallen into the beast path, Liu Xiaodao has also made a wish. What's more, as a Taoist, he already has a special affection for dogs.

Another soul-stabilizing ritual was done for the dog, so that Liu Dagger's soul completely adapted to this seriously injured body, and then he had to rely on medical treatment to restore the puppy's physical health.

Some people may wonder why Liu Dagger has just entered the reincarnation of the Animal Dao, it stands to reason that his soul should be very weak and may not be able to adapt to the body of this seriously injured dog.

In fact, on the contrary, when a person enters the path of reincarnation, the divine consciousness of the soul is not weak, and it is not much different from when he was not reincarnated. So why are mammals so fragile when they are born? One is because the mammal's own body is not fully developed, and the other is because of pregnancy.

There are eight sufferings in life, the suffering of birth, the suffering of old age, the suffering of illness, the suffering of death, the suffering of resentment, the suffering of love and parting, the suffering of not being able to ask for it, and the suffering of five extractions. Buddhists call the process of pregnancy the suffering of the fetus, that is, the suffering of birth among the eight sufferings.

From reincarnation, the divine consciousness enters the womb, and the womb is suffering, and the scriptures describe that the divine consciousness is called the womb when it enters the womb, and that suffering is no different from hell. The child is in the mother's belly, the mother drinks a glass of cold water, the child feels like a cold hell inside, and drinking a cup of hot water is like a hell of eight heats, and the suffering is unspeakable, and the ten months are sinful, so after the ten months of the fetal prison and then being born, the things in his previous life are completely forgotten, this is too bitter, if there is no such pain, the things in his previous life should be remembered, so after we are born, we don't remember the things in the previous life.

This is a Buddhist statement, Liu Xiaodao did not have the opportunity to research, he just held a respectful attitude to appreciate it. However, he can be sure that the soul of Liu Dagger, who has only been reincarnated and has not gone through pregnancy (birth suffering), can control the body of this puppy more than the soul before this puppy. Even though the dog's body was already badly injured.

That night, Liu Xiaodao stayed awake all night, staying by the dog's side every inch, and as soon as the pet hospital went to work, he took it over to Dr. Wang of the pet hospital non-stop.

When Dr. Wang saw the dog, his face was extremely surprised, and he said: "This puppy's vitality is too strong, such a serious injury, it actually survived, not only survived, its eyes are so energetic." The speed of recovery from the wound is also amazing, and it is already slowly scabbing over. If that's the case, it won't take half a month to heal. ”

Liu Xiaodao smiled, very happy in his heart, although he was finally earned more than 4,000 by the pet hospital, but this money, he spent it too much.

Half a month later, the puppy recovered.

That morning, Liu Xiaodao got up early, deliberately cleaned up and went out with the puppy, because today was the weekend, he made an appointment with Wen Jing to meet, and wanted to bring the puppy over to Wen Jing to see.

Now Wen Jing has retired, so he doesn't plan to tell Wen Jing about this, he just wants to take the puppy to meet Wen Jing, and now Wen Jing's career is getting bigger and bigger, if she knows that this puppy is the reincarnation of Liu Dagger, she won't have time to take care of it, so relatively speaking, it's slightly better for Liu Xiaodao, a jobless vagrant who has no serious job, to take care of it.

The lifespan of a dog is only more than ten years at most, but Liu Xiaodao already plans to pinch Liu Dagger's third reincarnation in his hands. Even if he retired and couldn't do the soul-inducing ritual on his own, he would find a way to find a colleague to help him complete it.

The place where Liu Xiaodao and Wen Jing met was Wen Jing's house, Wen Jing's home Liu Dagger was very familiar, and now bringing it over is also a revisit, although Liu Dagger has no concept anymore, but this is a belief and a wish of his.

"Yo, Brother Liu, have you dressed up deliberately? Huh? What a cute puppy, this is what you recently raised? Wen Jing opened the door and looked at Liu Xiaodao, who had been specially dressed, and said.

Liu Xiaodao smiled and said, "Yes, big boss Wenjing, you deliberately dress up to look formal." ”

"It's not the first time we've met, so why are you so formal? Are you going to go on a blind date later? Wen Jing asked suspiciously.

Liu Xiaodao handed the puppy in his arms to Wen Jing's arms and said, "Your big kiss, it's not the first time you and I have met, but it's the first time you have met it." ”

Wen Jing smiled and took the puppy, looked at the puppy in her arms gently, and said while walking to the sofa in the living room: "That's right, puppy, what's your name?" ”

Liu Xiaodao changed his shoes and said, "Do you like it?" ”

Wen Jing nodded and said, "Of course I like it, look at this look, tsk, perseverance, and my junior brother."

"Hehe, Wen Jing, haven't you forgotten Liu Dagger?" I interrupted her, "Liu Dagger has been reincarnated, don't you know?" ”

Wen Jing pursed her lips, and then said with a smile: "Of course I know, can't I sigh?" The moment I retreated, I figured out that I had nothing to do with him after all. He has his mission, and I have my own path to follow. No matter where he is now, I will always keep him in my heart as a spiritual pillar. Not to mention that he has been reincarnated now, even if he is here now, I will not lock him and me with emotional shackles. Brother Liu, I thank you for everything you have done for him. If you have nothing to do in the future, if you don't dislike it, you can come to our company and give you a general assistant as a general assistant, hahaha. ”

Wen Jing's words changed quickly, she still looked serious at first, but she laughed out loud later, but it can be seen from her tone that she completely let go of Liu Dagger, and Liu Xiaodao was very pleased with Wen Jing's relief.

"Haha, forget it about being an assistant, I'm used to being free and lazy, and working in the company is not suitable for me. Besides, I'm going to really be your assistant, and others will designate me as a little white face. Liu Xiaodao also said jokingly.

Wen Jing covered her mouth and smiled for a while and said, "By the way, Brother Liu, what's the name of your little dog?" ”

Liu Xiaodao looked at Wen Jing, smiled and said, "The surname is Liu." ”

Wen Jing still smiled and said, "Ouch, it's still your surname?" So what's called Liu? ”

Liu Xiaodao said calmly: "Yin Shi is lifed, belonging to wood, gram soil, lifting soil and covering daggers, and overlapping twins, so that you can live a life safely." Therefore, it is called Liu Tuotuo. ”

Wen Jing's face stiffened after listening, and then she smiled with relief, looked up at Liu Xiaodao and asked: "Tuo, there is a dagger under the head of the treasure next to the soil, and the dagger is covered by the soil, Brother Liu, he is ......"

Liu Xiaodao looked at Wen Jing, who was obviously relieved, made a shushing motion, and then nodded with a smile.

Wen Jing's smile was still the same, her eyes were shining, and after a few seconds, she hugged Liu Tuotuo tightly and didn't speak for a long time.

......
