The moonlight was cool, but it was very lonely in the Forbidden City, and the number of people who could go to the Forbidden City at that time was very small. At 5 o'clock, the Forbidden City began to clear the 720,000-square-meter majestic palace, and the number of people inside was even smaller.

Li Xiaoqing took advantage of the fact that no one was there at this time to hit a few sparrows with stones. And go to the cafeteria, so to say that I borrowed a place in the back kitchen from the master. He cleaned these sparrows many times, and after pickling, they were fried in boiling oil and were charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and then he stuffed a lot of chili peppers in the sparrow's stomach, watching Li Xiaoqing do this, the uncle in the back kitchen said with a smile: Young man, eat so spicy, be careful with the fire, when the time comes, the top will be refreshing, and the bottom will be uncomfortable.

Li Xiaoqing smiled embarrassedly, he didn't know what to say, he knew that these old Beijingers were very poor, and everyone was idle, so they ran the train with their mouths full, and talked to you from all over the world, Li Xiaoqing smiled and didn't speak, and this uncle wouldn't talk to him for too long.

These sparrows are naturally not eaten by Li Xiaoqing himself, he has long stopped eating meat, this sparrow is for the little beast to eat, why put chili peppers, you will understand later.

Li Xiaoqing didn't stay in the back kitchen for more, ran directly to his small courtyard, dropped the fried fragrant sparrow on the tree, and then hid far away, made a cup of tea, and took a book to sit there.

In the place where he put his teacup and teapot, he arranged eight golden lock arrays, and the eight gates: rest, life, injury, Du, Jing, death, shock, and open. In ancient times, this was originally a large array used by marching soldiers to fight, such as entering from the Shengmen, Jingmen, and opening the door; If you enter from the injured door, the shocked door, or the closed door, you will be injured; If you enter from Dumen and the Gate of Death, you will die. And Li Xiaoqing used only a trapped formation today, the purpose of which was to trap the little beast, and there was no killing intent, so this formation was only the size of a coffee table, and Li Xiaoqing also used a few teacups to block the door of death.

Li Xiaoqing sat there like an uncle, looked at a small black shadow, and jumped under the tree with sparrows. First, I tried to jump a few times, but when I saw that I couldn't reach the sparrow meat, I jumped up without saying a word and took the meat in my mouth. Then he left a few large sparrows, and swallowed all the small sparrows in one gulp, which seemed to be so delicious, as if he had not eaten such delicious meat for a long time.

But after a while, the little guy jumped up and down like crazy, this was spicy by the pepper hidden in the sparrow's stomach, looked east, looked west, and finally saw the teapot that Li Xiaoqing put beside him, the little guy ran over without saying a word, picked up the teapot and drank the water, and after drinking comfortably, he was ready to leave, but just about to go out, he was bounced back by the eight golden lock arrays.

The little beast roared and shouted, knowing that this was the way of others, and looked at Li Xiaoqing who was leisurely on the chair with a menacing attitude, as if he was an enemy.

"What's the matter, is it reasonable to steal my things?" Li Xiaoqing put his hand into the formation, grabbed the little beast, and asked with a smile.

"Squeak!" The little beast seemed to be very unconvinced, Li Xiaoqing didn't care, threw him into the formation, and then said, "Since you are not sensible, then continue to stay here, when you understand, when to let you out." Li Xiaoqing didn't pay attention to him, and prepared to go into the house.

"Squeak!" Although the little eared mouse was not convinced, but at this time he was soft, he was afraid that Li Xiaoqing would leave him here, at this time he raised his forelimbs, stood up, and kowtowed his head to the ground, the behavior of this little beast really surprised Li Xiaoqing.

This kowtow is exquisite, kowtowing three heads is a big gift, but if someone kowtows to someone with the top of the head, the etiquette is heavier than kowtowing three heads, as the saying goes, killing people is not enough to nod the ground, which is what it means.

Li Xiaoqing didn't say a word, and immediately withdrew the big array, although he was very greedy for this little beast and wanted to take it for his own use, but there is a way in the rivers and lakes, there is a way in martial arts, and there is a way to be a Taoist priest.

Seeing that Li Xiaoqing let him out, the eared mouse was also stunned for a moment, and bowed to Li Xiaoqing again.

Li Xiaoqing followed the mouse at this time, until he walked to the northeast of the Forbidden City and thought of a dry well, the mouse first climbed in, and Li Xiaoqing also jumped down.

As soon as he went down, he heard a hoarse and tired voice say, "Little ear, why did you come back so early today?" Li Xiaoqing followed the voice and looked over, only to see a skinny old man lying on the bed panting and asking. The eared mouse spit out a few sparrows from its mouth, and the sparrows looked like they had just come out of the pot at this time, and Li Xiaoqing was stunned for a moment, and his feelings were masterful.

"Hmm, you also brought back guests, you haven't brought people under the well for more than fifty years, have you?" The old man propped himself up with his hands, pointed to a chair not far away, and motioned for Li Xiaoqing to sit down.

"You don't have to ask me where I came from, I'll tell you!" the old man said indifferently as he looked at Li Xiaoqing's appearance of wanting to speak and stopped.

"Little ear, why are you still stunned? Serve tea to the guests!" As soon as the old man finished speaking, the little eared mouse cleverly took out a teapot and poured water directly into the tea bowl, to Li Xiaoqing's surprise, the water poured was cold water, but the tea leaves in this bowl slowly soaked and slowly sank to the bottom of the bowl.

"This bowl is Qianlong's favorite thing, it was given by Ban (chan) Erdeni, as long as you pour water into it, this stone bowl will boil it by itself, more than 90 degrees, not high or low, and it is the most comfortable to drink. The old man couldn't help but smile when he saw Li Xiaoqing's surprised look and explained to him.

"Senior, please forgive me for being rude, I don't know that this spirit beast has a master. Li Xiaoqing was apologetic, he wanted to catch other people's pets, and people treated him politely, which made Li Xiaoqing feel very unhappy.

"It's okay, I'm a person who is about to go into the ground, and my little ears have to have a good place, you are so young, you have such a cultivation, and your achievements in the future will be extraordinary!" The old man looked at Li Xiaoqing, his face was very ruddy.

Li Xiaoqing looked at the old man, but he was shocked in his heart, how could he, a mortal, see his own cultivation? Without waiting for Li Xiaoqing to calm down, he himself said: A father-in-law in our palace said in the past that people who can catch small ears are afraid that they are all living immortals on the ground, and Zhang Tianshi of Longhu Mountain once played with this little guy in his hands.

"I don't know what the predecessors said about Zhang Tianshi, but Zhang Xuanhe is the Taoist?"

"Oh, do you know?" the old man glanced at Li Xiaoqing with interest and asked with some expectation.

"Xuanhe Dao Chang is the uncle below. ”

"You're also from Longhu Mountain?"

"No, my master once sought Taoism in Longhu Mountain, and later became the head of another sect. Li Xiaoqing said and gave the old man a junior salute.

"Hui Shi is your master?"

"Senior knows my master?"

"I know, although your master was a Taoist priest back then, he was crazy and couldn't take it, and stole a set of copper coin swords from me, which was given to me by my Amma, but your master gave me that set of copper coin swords and took them away. As soon as he said this, Li Xiaoqing's face suddenly turned red, and the master's copper coin sword he himself boasted that it was from the hands of a real dragon, and it is estimated that there is no better one in the whole of China than his copper coin sword.

Kangqian Tongbao is cast by the Kangxi and Qianlong dynasties, thick and pure, and is now also valued by connoisseurs who collect ancient money. And Qianlong's Tongbao also engraved the province where the money was minted on the money with a word, and the emperor could see which province was the most attentive. Then there are a total of twenty pieces in different provinces, and they can also be made into a poem.

During Jiaqing, some people said that they could get together these 20 copper coins, saying that once they wore the red thread, they could dispel evil spirits and suppress shock. This matter is indeed spread in a good way, even the palace office has saved Qianlong Tongbao with red silk thread into a copper money sword, all underage Agogege, on Chinese New Year's Eve to the emperor and empress, will definitely be able to get in addition to a pair of peace and ruyi embroidered purses, that is, this copper money sword, hanging at the head of the bed until the lantern lantern falls. Even in the Republic of China, this good copper coin sword costs more than a dozen silver dollars.

"Senior, my master said that his copper coin sword was stolen from the real dragon's room, but since Tongzhi, the dragon vein of the Qing Dynasty has been broken, and the royal dragon has been broken, but the senior said that this sword is yours, if it is really the senior's, the younger generation will present the sword!" Li Xiaoqing took out a copper coin sword from the eight treasure bag on his waist, which was the one handed down by the Hui Shi people.

"Yo he, it's really you, Hui Lao Dao is really good to you!" The old man stretched out his hand and took the copper coin sword, and said while stroking: In the past, May was a fierce month, and the fifth day was a fierce day, and the child born on May 5 was an "ominous son" who would make the ancestors and fathers suffer misfortune and bring misfortune to the family, when I was born, my father was only 16 years old, and my mother was a lowly palace maid, and it was just in time for the chaos of the times.

My grandmother, who was my own grandmother, thought that I had brought misfortune to the Qing Dynasty and had a group of eunuchs come and kill me, and my mother hid me in the crack of my father's study, and I escaped, but my mother was beaten to death.

Li Xiaoqing couldn't help but sigh for this old man when he heard this, what he said was true, but in ancient times, it was another saying that "May 5 is as fierce as a tiger". Meng Weijun, one of the four gentlemen of the Warring States Period, was born on May 5, when his father was also going to bury him, but fortunately he was rescued by his mother and then raised as an adult; Hu Guang, a famous minister of the Eastern Han Dynasty, was also born on this day, and was put into a gourd by his family and thrown into the river, and was later rescued and named Hu Guang; and Zhao Ji, the son of Qinglou in the imperial family of the past dynasties, Song Huizong, that is, the one mentioned above who named Guo Pu Wen Xibo, was also born on this day, and in order to avoid secrecy, his birthday was changed to 10 days of the tenth month of the lunar calendar.

Li Xiaoqing was actually very angry about this, although May 5 is a fierce day, but only when the eight characters of the birthday clash with this day, there will be misfortune.

"Although my father was cowardly, he still protected me, and sent me to the house of a minister of military aircraft whom he trusted very much, and secretly raised me, afraid that my grandmother would know that he had sent someone to poison me, so he gave me the ear rat in this palace that can resist all kinds of poisons, but I didn't expect him to be poisoned by the blood of smallpox, it was really in response to God's will, and my parents died because of me.

In the past, when Amma was there every Chinese New Year's Eve, he secretly gave me some gadgets on Chinese New Year's Eve, and this sword was given to me on Chinese New Year's Eve before he died, when I was only three years old. The tears in the old man's eyes couldn't help but flow out slowly when he said this, and Li Xiaoqing felt sad for a while.

Your master, the liar, told me: I have the image of a dragon and a tiger, and it is the order of the Son of Heaven, but it will be a chaotic world, and the real dragon will be suppressed, although I cannot appear in the world, but the dormant true dragon is extremely long-lived. At the beginning, he asked me to give him this copper coin sword, saying that he could let me bury this old bone in the royal cemetery after I died, I am more than 100 years old, and I am about to enter the earth, but in this era, I have no identity certificate, and secondly, the imperial tomb is closed, and more than 100 people are guarding it, I want to die in it, let alone buy the imperial tomb!

Li Xiaoqing saw that the old man's face was square, the heavenly court was full, and his eyes were slightly hanging, like a flying swallow, his nose was like a hanging gall, and his earlobes were thick, and it was indeed a real dragon, and what the master said was really right.

It's going to be Qingming in the past few days, and it's also a bit particular about going to the tomb during Qingming, so here are a few points that should be paid attention to.

First, it is best to go to the grave in the morning, because at that time, when it is still the sixth yang, the yang energy is relatively sufficient, and it is not easy to be harassed by some dirty things in the cemetery

Second, don't eat anything heavy like garlic, because it's fishy and traditionally classified as meat. Generally, in order to show respect for ancestors when worshipping ancestors, they should relieve their food for a day (not so much now)

Third, don't dress too brightly! Some girls wear red and purple clothes to the grave, or dress too revealingly. One is to anger your ancestors, and the other is to provoke other people's interest in you. Especially girls who have their own yang qi decay, even more so.

Fourth, don't walk around or straddle around the cemetery. There were some people who were hit by this kind of chaos for many months of the year, and business was bleak. Even if you encounter something unavoidable, be apologic and mutter a few words to apologize or something.

Fifth, we must not linger or sigh at the graves of young adults and infants! Although it is a pity that they die young, they are more or less resentful because they left too early. If you want to grave such a person, it is better to say something nice, such as voting for a good person

Sixth, don't spit, defecate and defecate. "The gold and jade are in the nine emptiness, and the dead are immortal" In ancient times, after death, the body fortress nine orifice jade, some positions on our body are called yin orifices, and many upper bodies, and the entrance to the dirty things are entered from there.

Okay, don't scare everyone, have a good three-day long vacation, April 3rd book Sanjiang list is strongly recommended, everyone supports it!
