He and Zhu Tong made an appointment with a drink bar called MINT, Qi Huan had never been there, and the young lady who sold his bracelet enthusiastically pointed out the direction, and he had to take the escalator all the way up to the fifth floor.

To be honest, the shopping experience of the two boutiques made Qi Huan a little disappointed. The clerks and ladies are polite, and they don't despise him at all because he wears a school uniform for middle school students.

Qi Huan was standing on the escalator thinking wildly, and there happened to be a few Jinwan staff members pulling banners in the hall on the side, and he glanced at them casually, and saw that the banner was written to celebrate the new book signing of Professor Huang Maosen of Binhe Business School.

Isn't this Huang Maosen the one who once hosted a program with Dong Yue'er on a TV station? Dong Yue'er died in the rental house of the pig's head family a few days ago, and it seems that the death of his partner did not delay Professor Huang in signing and selling books at all.

At the entrance of the hall of Jinwan Square, several other staff members are working together to erect a display board printed with a large photo of Huang Maosen. Huang Maosen above is dressed in a Tang costume, with a childish face, holding a book in his hand, and the title of the book is "Wealth". In the corner of Huang Maosen's huge photo, the title of the book is also specially marked, which reads, "A gentleman loves money and is born in a good way." ”

Qi Huan was watching intently, and Xiao Liu'er's giggling laughter sounded in his ears: "Grandpa doesn't recognize this kid?" He is Huang Niba's apprentice, when this kid was a teenager, he saw your old side with Huang Niba, and this kid kowtowed loudly at that time. If it's about seniority, this kid is your apprentice's grandchild. ”

Huang Maosen is me, uh, grandpa's apprentice grandson? Qi Huan was aroused by Xiao Liu'er's words, although there is no trace of Huang Maosen in his grandfather's memory, but the three words "yellow mud" still have some impressions.

"Huang Niba" earlier claimed to be a Taoist monk, his family name was Huang, and he took a very crazy Taoist name called "Huang Ni Pill". The reason why the old guy is crazy is because Chen Nan, the fourth ancestor of the Taoist Southern Sect, is also known as "Chen Mud Pill", which is said to be because he rubs a mud pill with his hand, which is the elixir that saves people's lives.

When "Huang Ni Pill" first walked the rivers and lakes, he claimed to be the true disciple of the Taoist Nanzong Neidan, and claimed to be the Nanpai Neidan method taught by Chen Niwan, the fourth ancestor of the Southern Sect, but in fact he was an old man who specialized in Peng Zu's Yin and Yang collection tactics. And the technique of collecting war from Peng Zude's boudoir has always been denounced as the "muddy water pill" by the authentic Neidan family of the Taoist sect, and after a long time, more and more people know the details of the "yellow mud pill", and the "yellow mud pill" has become "yellow mud". The reason why the old faces of the rivers and lakes are called so also alludes to the meaning of his "yellow mud stuffed in the crotch of his pants, not but".

After going through the situation of Huang Ni in his mind, Qi Huan continued to communicate with Xiao Liu'er: "Huang Ni Ba should have been dead for several years, right?"

"It's been thirty years, to say the least. Xiao Liu'er's tone was full of schadenfreude, "It is said that the old man went to the countryside to be a private teacher for two years, and as a result, he harmed other people's students. Unexpectedly, it was a warm winter that year, and the river was not solid, and the yellow mud fell into the ice hole halfway through, and he has been soaking in ice water for more than half a month. After the beginning of spring, he was fished up from a hundred and ten miles downstream, and the whole person really became a mess of mud. ”

What Xiao Liu'er said is similar to what Qi Huan remembers, it seems that as long as it is not something that his grandfather has personally experienced, there are still many rumors like this kind of hearsay in his memory, but most of them are old yellow calendars, the closer the time, the less clear the memory. Qi Huan even wondered if there was already a precursor of Alzheimer's disease before his grandfather took the house, and the more recent it happened, the more he couldn't remember?

For example, the professor Huang Maosen on the banner of Jinwan Hall has no impression in his grandfather's memory. In a blink of an eye, Qi Huan thought that the yellow mud who was buried in the glacier was also his grandfather's nephew, although he felt that he had died a well-deserved death, but he should not gloat like Xiao Liu'er. Thinking that Li Qi had been sent to New Zealand by him, he could take advantage of this time of "being alone" with Xiao Liu'er to try to get more useful information from the big mouth of this goods.

"I remember that when Huang Niba kowtowed to me back then, he also said in a high-spirited manner that he had to cultivate into a terrestrial immortal in his life!" Qi Huan took out a little bit of his grandfather's posture, sighed, and recalled the past, "We still remember when we first cultivated, we passed by Wuyang City with our grandfather." At that time, we thought that our grandfather was the threshold of the rivers and lakes that tested us, so we truthfully returned to our grandfather and said that in our opinion, these children were not from the Dongdi Temple in Guangdong Province, but they were just some wild flowers without heels. ”

"My grandfather doesn't know if I can ask again, what do you think is special about these flowers?"

"Let's take a closer look, only to find that these flowers are either deaf, dumb and blind, or cripples with missing arms and legs. ”

"Our grandfather also sighed at that time, and instructed us to say, with my eyes, these crippled flowers in front of the city are all cultivators who failed to cultivate in their previous lives!"

Speaking of this, Qi Huan really felt a trace of melancholy in his heart: "Our ancestor said that cultivators are walking the road against the sky, and what they are doing is the business of taking immortality from heaven and earth. Those who cultivate the Tao should understand that it is a great blessing to be able to become attached to the Dao in this life, but if the Dao mind is lost, or even if they give up halfway, they will have to bear the suffering of poverty and incompleteness in this next life. ”

Xiao Liu'er listened to his emotion, and sighed faintly: "For Xiao Liu'er, even if she is reincarnated as a poor and crippled body, it is a great blessing. Xiao Liu'er doesn't ask for anything else, just wants to be able to give birth to a personal body in the next life, even if he is blind or lame. ”

Qi Huan didn't expect that the willow pimple, who only knew that he had such a hardship and desire, didn't know how to pick it up for a while, and wanted to say that Xu Xiaoliu'er would have to cultivate his body in the next life, but the problem was that after years of education, Qi Huan was still skeptical about the past life and the afterlife.

In her mind, Xiao Liu'er still said to herself: "So, Xiao Liu'er has followed her grandfather with iron heart in this life, as long as her grandfather's Taoism is achieved, there will naturally be a day when Xiao Liu'er cultivates her human body." ”

Qi Huan was silent for two seconds, and then changed the topic with a smile: "You guy, your Dao heart is still impure." Just now I swore that even if you are blind and lame, why don't you just mention the deaf and dumb? I see you, you still can't control your big mouth. ”

Xiao Liu'er was pierced by Qi Huan's thoughts, and she also giggled.
