Volume 1 Evil Stars Chapter 18 Wandering the Old Way
Ever since the chief Yin Chunhua and several elders came, Bai Douwen had been bedridden. He tossed and turned, distraught, and spent day after day in melancholy and melancholy.
The people in the village regard Bai Qingyun as a "disaster star", and in Bai Douwen's opinion, this is simply nonsense. But then he thought that it was no wonder that they were not to blame, because those strange things were always inextricably linked with Yun'er, especially the case of the bald mountain landslide, why was he the one who scribbled on the face of the mountain god? Now, Yun'er's existence has become their heart disease, and they want to force Yun'er to leave this village, which makes the old man very embarrassed. Besides, who will take care of the child when he is so young? Unless our father and son move with their families, but I am in the twilight of my life, and the bones of my wife and son are still here, I really don't want to leave!
Bai Douwen obviously felt the desolation and pressure from Shuangquan Village, and for many days, his mood had been tormented painfully in this contradictory entanglement.
One afternoon, Bai Douwen was holding a scroll in his hand and pointing at it, using the ancient family rules to teach Yun'er and Gan Yu to read and write, and Steward Lu stepped into the threshold with his hand on the door frame and shook his legs, saying that a guest had come to the door to ask for a meeting.
"Who?"
"A Taoist from out of town. ”
"Ask him to come in. Bai Dou said warmly.
"Okay, sir!" Steward Lu turned out again.
Bai Douwen walked to the door of the living room and saw Steward Lu in the courtyard accompanying the Taoist chief who was walking towards this side. The Taoist was in front, but Steward Lu limped to the side, looking like the lame pet of the Taoist chief.
The Taoist chief is an old man, dressed in a plain white robe, with a huge black and white picture of a yin and yang fish embroidered on his back. He holds a silver white whisk in his hand, looks like a crane with a childish face, fairy wind bones, silver hair fluttering, and extraordinary temperament.
The two looked at each other, both of them had white hair and white beards, and they were the same age, so they laughed and bowed.
The old Taoist claimed to be from Huashan, a real person of cultivation, and the Taoist name was quiet. In the past few years, he climbed to the top of Huashan, watched the astronomy at night, and found that the southwest sky was strange, so he searched all the way and came here.
Bai Douwen invited him into the living room and let him sit to watch the tea.
After they sat down as guests and hosts, they began to talk about the scriptures while sipping tea.
"May I ask the old man, what kind of place is this?" asked the old man of Huashan with a smile.
"This is a small mountain village in Hanzhong, Shaanxi, called Shuangquan Village. Bai Douwen replied.
"Oh, this is a good place! Before entering the village, I first went to the mountain peak at the entrance of the village and looked down, this village is green mountains and green waters, surrounded by mountains and greenery, and the terrain and landform are extremely peculiar, it looks like a yin and yang Taiji diagram. Oh, what a treasure of feng shui! That's amazing, it's amazing, it's amazing!"
"The old man took a fancy to this in his early years, so he settled here. Bai Douwen looked proud.
"Oh, the old gentleman is really a good eye!" praised Huashan Laodao.
"The Taoist has won the award. If you want to talk about the magic here, you have to count that Mid-Autumn Festival night twelve years ago. ”
Then, Bai Douwen recounted the strange celestial phenomena of the night when Yun'er was born, storms, thunder and lightning.
After hearing this, the old Taoist of Huashan was very excited: "The Taiji cloud map from the sky coincides with the topography of Shuangquan Village, old man, this is a meteorological wonder that has not been encountered in 10,000 years!"
Subsequently, Huashan Lao Dao took a sip of tea and began to talk about it.
"Sir doesn't know, the white clouds and dark clouds in the Taiji cloud map are yin and yang fish! The white clouds are yang, the dark clouds are yin, and the yin and yang fish are close to each other, indicating that all things are balanced!" Huashan Lao Dao excitedly left the seat, walked back and forth on the ground, and talked boastfully: "The five stars around the clouds that Mr. saw that day are the essence of the five elements, the son of the five emperors!"
"Does the 'Five Elements' refer to metal, wood, water, fire, and earth?" Bai Douwen asked.
"Exactly. ”
"What about the 'Five Emperors'?" Bai Douwen asked again.
"The five emperors are Taigao, Emperor Yan, Yellow Emperor, Shaohao, and Zhuan. In the Taiwei Wall, there is a seat of five emperors, each sitting five gods. These five gods are the god of the Yellow Emperor's central hub, the god of the Cangdi Eastern Lingwei, the Red Emperor's southern red anger, the White Emperor's western white Zhaoju god, and the Black Emperor's northern Ye Guangji. Huashan Lao Dao walked to the table, took a sip of the tea bowl in his hand, choked and coughed a few times, and then said: "The five stars that Mr. saw are the messengers of the sky, and they often walk in the Liesha, and they are the people who have no way. If the king of the people is gracious, upright and empty, then the five-star smoothness, in and out of the time, the world is peaceful, and the chaos is not born; if the people have no virtue, the distant gentleman, the near villain, all the evil, then the five stars retrograde and change color, from time to time, the horns of the mangjiao are angry, the landslide earthquake, the river exhausts the rain and blood, the demons come out, the world is in chaos. The old gentleman saw the dark clouds covering the sky, and the five stars were shining, which was the image of the five-star prisoner and the victory of the guard. ”
"What is a 'five-star criminal list'?" Bai Douwen wondered.
"The stars of the year guard the earth, the glow guards the gold, the stars guard the water, the white guards the wood, and the stars guard the fire, which is for the five-star criminals. ”
"What about the five-star criminals?" asked Bai Douwen casually.
"This is a bad omen! First, the imperial court has a lot of endowments, a large number of servitudes, and the people are exhausted, and they are unable to provide for them, which leads to evil among the subordinates; second, the government bullies the weak and tyrannizes the widows, resulting in a large number of thieves and a military revolution. At that time, the country will be in trouble at home and abroad, and the country and society will be in danger!"
Bai Dou Wen was stunned and said, "When will the astrological omen happen, does the Dao Chief know?"
Huashan Lao Dao silently pinched his fingers and calculated the number of the five elements and the principle of the five stars, and said: "The strange astrological phenomenon appeared when Ling Sun was born, and this matter must happen after Ling Sun became an adult." ”
Bai Douwen was a little uncomfortable listening to it, so he called Xiao Cui to come in and refill the tea.
This old way of Huashan said some clouds, mountains, fog and seas, fairy and fantasy things, which sounded confusing, so that the ghosts and gods of heaven and earth could not guess it, and Bai Douwen was even more confused.
"Dao Chang has come all the way to this place, not just for sightseeing, right?" Bai Douwen wanted to know the real purpose of his visit here.
"As the saying goes, 'deep mountains give birth to dragons and snakes'. Judging from the strange astrological signs when Ling Sun was born, that child is not an ordinary person, but a strange person from the sky!" said Huashan Laodao, walked to the chair, lifted his robe, and sat back on the chair.
"My grandson wasn't the only one who was born that night. Bai Douwen felt that this old way of Huashan was playing tricks, so he deliberately pulled out Gan Yu to expose his lies.
"Why? and, "Why, and was also born in this village?" asked Hua Shan Lao Dao in surprise.
"Yes, there is another one, born at the same time as my grandson. After the thunderstorm that night, two lightning bolts were struck, and it is said that the other lightning bolt stirred up a column of water seven or eight feet high from the other spring of the 'Sister Spring'. At that moment, the family that lived by the spring also gave birth to a child. ”
"No wonder, judging from the celestial phenomena, it should be so. Huashan Lao Dao pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Is the other child a boy or a girl?"
"It's also a man. ”
"Oh, that's bad, how can this be......? It shouldn't be!" Huashan Lao Dao shook off the dust, stood up and left the seat, and chattered while turning around on the ground: "Mr. doesn't know, the difference between yin and yang in this Taiji cloud map is also the difference between men and women, yang is male, yin is female, men and women love each other, pursue each other, the world will be peaceful, this is the birth of two boys at the same time, it really shouldn't be!"
"What's wrong with that?" Bai Douwen was a little confused.
"Alas! I won't tell you, these two boys are the reincarnation of Tiangang and Earth, one is Tiangang Star and the other is Earthshatter Star, because they descend in the same place, they are born and restrain each other!" Huashan Lao Dao shook his head and sighed again and again. Then, with a deep sigh, he asked, "What's that...... Where's the other kid now?"
"It's right in my house. ”
"At your house?" Huashan Lao Dao's eyes widened in surprise, and he shook his beard excitedly and said, "Look at it, look at it, now you let the two of them live under the same roof, this ...... It's inappropriate, it's inappropriate!"
Hearing the words of the old man of Huashan, Master Bai was very surprised. He asked in a panic: "What is the trick of the Taoist chief, I hope to give me advice!"
Huashan Lao Dao pondered for a moment and said: "If Mr. is not strange, the poor Dao can speak directly." ”
"A gentleman asks about disasters and doesn't ask about blessings, so why should he hide it? The Tao is long, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it!" Bai Dou Wen said.
"These two boys can't be in the same place, and one of them has to disappear from here. "Huashan Lao Dao's face is unpredictable.
"What do you mean?"
"Forgive me for taking the liberty of being poor...... Take your beloved grandson as a disciple. Huashan Lao Dao asked tentatively.
"Huh, you're going to take my grandson out of here?"
"To tell you the truth, old sir, this is the purpose of this trip. ”
Bai Douwen seemed to wake up suddenly, it turned out that this old road of Huashan came to the door in person, just to take Yun'er out of here. How can this be done? The old man resolutely refuses to agree!
The Bai family has been passed down from generation to generation, and now there is such a grandson, but he is asked to join some Taoism, doesn't this make the Bai family go to extinction? Bai Dou Wen thought again, but ...... If these two children are really incompatible, staying together every day is not a long-term solution. Otherwise, let Gan Yu go with the Taoist...... Speaking of which, this poor child is also his grandson, and he is also the blood of the Bai family!
These two children are half-siblings, and the people in the village have long gossiped about it, but that is just their speculation, but Bai Douwen is a real witness, which is also a secret that he will always hide in his heart.
