Volume 2 Lonely Heart Stirs Up the Wind and Dust Chapter 100 The Wind and Clouds Change
"Don't worry, the so-called most dangerous place is the safest place, the huge Zhongtianfu City, even if they come, they won't bump into each other so coincidentally. The two of them were resting in the inn, and when they heard the noise outside the window, Bai Wushou got up curiously and walked to the side of the bed and looked out. I saw the battle of the Heavenly Master passing by mightily, and the people on both sides of the street were all convinced and worshipped.
Seeing this strange scene, Bai Wushou couldn't help but smack his tongue and said: "There is such a strange scene in the world, this Taoist priest is really the same as the emperor Lao Tzu." Cen Du rarely drank a small glass of wine, a little drunk, and was quite curious when he heard the words, so he asked, "What's going on outside the window?" Bai Wushou returned to the table with a smile and said, "Big brother, go and see for yourself." ”
Cen Du got up to look, and when he saw Fang Tianshi sitting on the sedan chair, his face changed suddenly, his eyes were round, and he said to himself: "It's him? I didn't expect to be able to see it here after many years." These words fell into Bai Wushou's ears, and he asked casually: "Big brother, don't you know this demon way?"
"It's a bit like a friend I used to have. Rest here, and I'll go buy another jar of wine. After saying that, Cen pushed the door and left, Bai Wushou was also suspicious, still sitting at the table and pouring spirits one by one. Let's say that Na Cen turned around and went downstairs and came to the account desk. The shopkeeper, who was fiddling with the abacus, saw a guest approaching, so he raised his head and asked with a smile, "What does the guest command?"
Cen Duan stretched out a finger and said, "Another jar of wine." The old shopkeeper happily put down the account book and abacus, came to the cabinet and hugged a jar of wine, and handed it to Cen Du. Cen Du took the wine jar, but did not go upstairs, but pointed to the Heavenly Master Array passing by outside the door and asked, "Shopkeeper, dare to ask what is the matter with this Dao Chief? Everyone else goes out to worship, why don't you go to worship?"
The shopkeeper was also enthusiastic, and explained the ins and outs of this Heavenly Master and Cen Du clearly, and finally added: "There are many problems with others, so I pray for this Heavenly Master to cast spells, but my life is also nourishing, my family is happy, and my business is prosperous, so why should I worship him?" Looking at the shopkeeper's expression, he was quite disdainful. Cen Du nodded, and then asked, "Where do you dare to settle down for this Taoist master?"
"Yes, of course. There are not only Taoist temples, but also ancestral halls! This Heavenly Master can be said to be omnipotent in Zhongtianfu. Even our parents, Lord Yin, the official mansion, respected him for three points, and Hugh said that the city gate was closed, but Lord Yin had already given him the documents to let him go, no matter what time it was, as long as this Heavenly Master wanted to enter and leave the city, the officers and soldiers guarding the city gate would be released immediately, and it could be said that it was unimpeded!" The shopkeeper said helplessly with a smile.
Cen Du asked: "Where is the Daoist Temple located?" Recently, it has been quite unpleasant, so I want to ask the Taoist to cast a spell for me to ward off disasters and evil spirits. The innkeeper then said, "You, go out of the city from this south gate, and walk a mile west to the Huangquan Temple where the Heavenly Master has settled. There is only one thing I want to explain to you, the guest officer, although the Taoist priest has some spells, he is not a good person. You must prepare enough gold and silver and wealth and ask him sincerely, otherwise I am afraid that you will not even be able to enter the door of his Taoist temple. And if you want to go to him, go out of the city with him at this time, or you will have to wait until tomorrow. ”
"There are such things. Cen shook his head and snickered, "Thank you for the shopkeeper's advice." After that, he pulled a straw rope, tied the mouth of the wine jar, put it in his hand, and walked out of the inn quickly. It was expected that he would fall asleep all night when he was drunk, so he would be fine. So he followed the Taoist priest's team and went out of the city while he was in chaos.
But as soon as he left the city, Cen was stunned and calmed down, and continued to follow the team. The little boy and the old scholar who were standing beside Fang Tianshi flew up, stopped in front of him and said, "Who are you? Why are you following the Heavenly Master?" Cen fainted and retreated half a step, arched his hand and said: "I have admired the name of the Heavenly Master for a long time, but I want to see you today, and ask the Heavenly Master to eliminate disasters and difficulties for me." ”
The old scholar looked him up and down, and saw that Cen was dressed in shabby clothes, his face was haggard, and his hands were empty, and he couldn't prepare gifts at a glance, so he shirked and said: "Today, the teacher has worked hard all day, and he is quite tired. If you have the heart, and go back to prepare gifts and rewards, come to my Huangquan Temple tomorrow, and the Heavenly Master will naturally cast a spell on you to eliminate disasters. But Cen Di refused to retreat, and said stubbornly: "What if I want to see the Heavenly Master today?"
The hideous-looking boy beside him had a hot temper, and when he heard the words, he pulled out the broadsword behind his back, gritted his teeth and said, "Look for death!" After that, he slashed the sword in his hand towards Cen Du, Cen Di's pupils contracted sharply, but his face still did not change, just a smile as if he was nothing, kicked his left foot, turned a somersault backwards, and turned to fall. When I looked at it again, the little boy's sword and the old scholar's knife were already in front of me.
Cen Duan retreated again and again, and the two chased after each other. Slashed several times in a row, and slashed many swords in a row, but all failed. But Cen Duan didn't mean to do anything with them, and he didn't want to hurt the two, he just played with them, and didn't use real kung fu. jumped up again, stepped on the top of the two of them, somersaulted a few times in front of them, and flew to stop the sedan chair of the Heavenly Master. The two were shocked, and hurriedly shouted: "The thief is gone!" After that, they also opened their weapons and quickly chased after them.
Let's say that Fang Tianshi, who was sitting on the sedan chair, heard the movement behind him, tilted his head slightly, and saw through the brocade light gauze tent, but saw a person, fighting his right hand alone, more than enough, although he did not see the face of the person who came, but also knew that he was not an ordinary person, etc., so he waved the dust, and the brocade gauze tent on three sides of the sedan chair was swept up by a gust of wind, Fang Tianshi flipped his wrist, slapped down his body, flew up, and also flew towards Cen Du.
Just as the little boy and the old scholar were hit by Cen Du's two palms, their bodies retreated violently, and their legs took turns to unload the force, so Fang Tianshi held him behind the two, unloaded most of the strength for the two of them, and pressed their shoulders to block them behind them. At the same time, he waved the dust, and he was about to slash towards Cen Du. The golden light flashed in front of Cen Du's eyes, he chuckled, turned around and pulled out the thunder whip, and leaned in front of him.
The dust and the long whip of the muddy copper collided, and there was a sound of "bang", a puff of white smoke was raised, and both of them took three steps back, and when they stood firm, the Taoist priest saw the face of the person who came, as well as the familiar weapon, and there was a trace of disbelief between the joy, and exclaimed: "It's you!"
Cen Du laughed and put away his weapon, clasped his fists and said, "Old friend, I haven't seen you for a long time." "I didn't expect to meet Brother Xian here today, this is not the place to speak, hurry up and follow me to the Guanzhong to talk about it." The old Taoist priest also hurriedly saluted, couldn't hide his smile, stepped forward and took Cen Du's wrist and pulled him into the sedan chair. The little boy and the old scholar glanced at each other, didn't say much, and then told the sedan chair man to get up the sedan chair and hurried back to the Huangquan Temple.
Along the way, Cen Du couldn't help asking: "I haven't seen you for many years, I don't want to see my brother again in Zhongtian Mansion today, it's really a trick." The old Taoist priest stroked his beard and said, "How did Brother Xian recognize my disguise technique?" Cen replied with a smile: "When we worked together in the Golden Feather Evil Palace, who didn't know who didn't know that your Fang Shen's disguise technique was the most powerful. But whenever others are disguised, they must be boiled into glue with resin herbs to paste people, skins, masks, and masks, but not only that, but also use psychedelic incense and soul bells to do blinding methods to make their disguise more realistic. Today, I see you wearing a soap robe, lighting incense, and ringing bells, and I know that in this world, only my brother is like this. ”
Hearing this, Fang Shensai laughed and said, "Haha, it's still Brother Xian who understands me." Today, my brother will rest in my view for one night, and we two brothers will definitely catch up on the old days!" Cen Du patted the back of his hand and said, "It's easy to say." The two got off the sedan chair and entered the back hall of the hall hand in hand. When Cen Duan asked why Fang Shenxian was so loved by the people in Zhongtianfu now, Fang Shenxian said calmly:
"Don't hide it from Brother Xian. Many years ago, the Golden Feather Evil Palace Tree fell and scattered, and we were forced to leave in desperation, but this world has long been unable to tolerate us. I originally wanted to be an ordinary family, an ordinary person, but Nanjiang Mansion was oppressed by the government, and in a fit of anger, I killed the corrupt officials and corrupt officials, along with many local bullies and squires who oppressed the people. But who knew that when I passed through Anhuai Mansion, I found that Nanjiang Mansion had already issued a sea fishing document and wanted notice, and the chief catcher of Anhuai Mansion was also eyeing me. ”
Cen Duan asked: "Could it be that with the ability of the virtuous brother, why can't you catch the head of a mere district?" Fang Shensai waved his hand and smiled bitterly: "I am ashamed to say this, I fled all the way, and the head catcher chased me for seven days and seven nights, and finally I lost my footing for a while, fell into their ambush, and was caught by the head catchers of the state capital along the way, and was escorted to the Anhuai Mansion for justice." But let them torture me, how to torture me, I don't want to reveal the slightest truth. These lackeys of the government are all demons and ghosts, and they only have their righteousness and justice in their eyes, so who cares if we live or die?"
"Fortunately, I learned a skill since I was a child, so I used a trick to kill the officials and jailers, and got a fake corpse to get by, but I escaped alive. Came to this Zhongtianfu. But after all, I am still guilty, and it is inconvenient to reveal my identity, so I assumed the name of Fang Tianshi, and only told outsiders that I had been learning the immortal law on the mountain since I was a child, and I was able to go down the mountain to save all the people. I set up a Yellow Spring Temple here, and if a person comes to ask for a Dharma, I will help him to ward off disasters and difficulties, or if someone is sick and prays for blessings, I will also use herbs mixed with talisman water to heal him. It is said to be a Taoist technique, but it is just an ordinary medical technique. It's just that this group of people is stupid and refuses to be a doctor, but believes in gods and Buddhas. ”
Over time, the reputation spread. The people were all convinced, and the government was also friendly with me. Only then did I realize that this method was the only one that could be respected and not subject to the evil anger of the government. I also use this method to help the people as much as I can. As for the so-called immortal Taoism, the wind and rain are smooth, praying for Chang'an, curing diseases and prolonging life, but they are just some tricks. ”
Cen nodded thoughtfully and said, "Although this matter is not very decent, it is not your fault. ”
