Those years when I practiced Taoism in the magic capital

Chapter 561 Candidates

"Only a mother is good in the world, and a child with a mother is like a treasure."

In the mountains, tender singing echoes, echoing between mountains and rivers.

The sun is shining brightly, and the late autumn is bleak.

An eight or nine-year-old boy was walking on the mountain road with a yellow ox, facing the autumn wind, singing loudly and full of sadness. I don't know if it was the autumn wind blowing sand and dust that blinded his eyes, or because he was too self-indulgent, the boy's tears fell.

"If you throw yourself into the arms of your mother, you will not be able to enjoy happiness. Without a mother, you are the most distressed. A child without a mother is like a grass. If you leave the embrace of your mother, where can you find happiness?"

"moo"

The old cow's voice was deep and low. I don't know if he was affected by the boy's singing, or he wanted to comfort the boy. The old cow was very obedient and kept rubbing his head against the boy.

"Old Cow"

The boy smiled, although there were still tears on his face: "I only have you, I have a mother, and I don't have a mother, you know, I used to have a mother, but now I don't have a mother."

The old cow doesn't understand, he just rubs his head against the boy, there are a lot of yellowing autumn grass on the side of the road, the old cow is hungry
"Old cow, you go to graze, I'll go to see my mother."

The young man let go of the rein and patted the old cow on the back: "Old cow, let me go."

Although the boy was young, only eight or nine years old, he was very sensible and had a lot to say in his heart, but the old cow didn't want to listen to it and had already started to eat grass.The teenager continued to walk forward, wiping away his tears: "You don't know that I miss my mother."

"In the world, only mothers are good, and children with mothers don't know. If he knows, he will laugh in his dreams! In the world, only mothers are good, and children with mothers don't know. If he knows, he will laugh in his dreams!"

The young man sang, trembling, and crying. His eyes were full of confusion: "In the world, only mothers are good. You have mothers. You don't know. I didn't know a few days ago."

The boy came to the hillside. There were several tombs on the hillside. Counting them carefully, there were four of them.

One of them still had a wreath on it, so it was obviously a new tomb.The young man knelt down and lay on the grave: "Mom, what should I do? It's time to pay the tuition again, and the food is sold and it's not enough. They gave me the money and paid it off."

"I went to work, but people didn't want me. I went to school and there was no teaching fee. The principal said that my tuition fee would be waived, but my classmates laughed at me as a child without a mother, and they all laughed at me behind my back."

The young man's tears were like a flood that broke the embankment, and he couldn't stop: "It's good for you to live. Although you can't move in bed when you are alive, but I have a mother."

The sun moved, from the east of the sky to the west, and slowly approached the top of the mountain. The boy just lay on his stomach like this.

The old cow was full, and came to the young man wagging its tail, and stood still.

"Jinlai. Jinlai"

The call sounded, and an old man in his sixties, calling, came to the hillside and saw the motionless boy lying on the grave. The old man was not surprised: "Jin Lai, it's time to eat, you child, God It’s cold, and you’ll catch a cold.”

"Grandpa Village Chief, will my mother come back?"

Although he clearly knows the answer, or the young man doesn't understand the meaning of death at all, his eyes are full of hope: "I have never seen my grandparents. When my father was buried here last year, my mother told me that as long as I get three good students every year, Dad would go home, but after I got the three-good student award, Dad didn’t come back.”

The old man was moved, his eyes were full of sadness: "You child, go back to eat first."

The old man didn't know how to comfort this poor child. Today is the eighth day after Jin Lai's mother passed away. The child comes here every day. Although the village is not big, the child is pitiful. There are more than 100 households, and each family takes care of the child's meals for a week. .

It was Jin Lai's first day at his house. Fortunately, it was summer vacation and school hadn't started yet. This kid didn't have to go to school. Otherwise, how could he go to school in this state?The old man said against his will: "Now your mother is going to talk to your father. He must know that you are a good boy. When you get more awards, your parents will come back to see you together."

"really?"

The young man raised his head. He had just lost his only relative. The young man was terrified and very disturbed.

He needs to rely on, and needs a lie to support him to be brave.The old man took a deep breath: "Really, you will start school in a few days, and then Uncle Yinguang will take you to pay the tuition."

"it is good"

The teenagers got up, one old and one young walked home, the old cow followed behind.The boy’s singing sounded again: “Only mothers are good in the world. A child with a mother is like a treasure. When thrown into the arms of the mother, happiness cannot be enjoyed. The most distressing thing is without a mother. A child without a mother is like a grass. When you leave the embrace of your mother, where can you find happiness? ?Only a mother is good in the world, a child with a mother doesn’t know. If he knows, he will laugh in his dream!”

The boy's singing echoed, the old man's face looked pity, and the old cow wagged its tail.

After the sun set and the old and the young left, Zhang Qingyun and Yu He appeared in front of the grave.

"This child is so pitiful."

Yuhe looked at the old and the young going away, with a slightly sad expression: "Is this the child's attachment to his mother?"

When Yuhe was young, she was picked up by her master to raise her. She didn't know what her parents were like, and she never experienced their warmth, but her master, uncle and others loved her very much.

However, is the love of master and uncle the same as the love and affection of parents?

Yuhe doesn't know, Yuhe only knows that when her master and uncle became immortals, she was also very sad, but she is a monk, but she is not young, and she doesn't behave like the child named Jinlai just now. Thoughts on mom.

"He is unfortunate because none of his relatives are alive."

Zhang Qingyun's face was indifferent. Everyone will have Jinlai today, but sooner or later: "But he is lucky, the villagers in his village are simple, he has no relatives, but he has the love of the whole village. not lonely."

"His mother, can't be resurrected?"

Yuhe looked at the grave and asked with a frown.

Obviously, the softness in Yuhe's heart was touched by this young man, and they were attracted by the singing.

"It has been reincarnated and cannot be resurrected."

Zhang Qingyun has the means to revive Jin Lai's mother, but his mother has been dead for more than ten days, and her soul has been reincarnated: "The law of heaven shows that his mother suffered a lot all her life, but after reincarnation, she is not bad."

"Say, can we take this child away?"

Compassion together, the disaster contained, Yuhe obviously wanted to take Jinlai away: "Even if he has the villagers' love, but his spirit still has no sustenance, he is still a duckweed, he has no self-destined destination, and this child is destined to be with us."

Fate?

Zhang Qingyun shook his head helplessly, the two of them had a high level of cultivation, and a single thought could affect the laws of heaven, which would naturally affect the child's fate.Destined or not, isn't it just a word from Yu He?

Sure enough, following the exit of the word Yuhe Youyuan, according to the laws of heaven, the fate of the young man who came in became unpredictable, with a vague sense of detachment, but it was connected to the village.

As long as Zhang Qingyun nodded and the apprenticeship was successful, the connection with the village would be interrupted.

"You hesitated?"

Yu He sighed and said, "It is true that the child is cared by the village now. It is because of his tragic life experience that he has received the sympathy of the village. In the future, as the child lives with the villagers and conflicts arise, this kind of care will inevitably decrease. .”

People's hearts are like this, Yuhe can see clearly.

Zhang Qingyun smiled and said: "It is you who accept apprentices, not me. If you want to accept apprentices, it is your mind."

Yuhe nodded: "So, let's observe for a few more days."

Accepting apprentices is not a small matter, it needs future successors to pass on one's own mantle, accepting apprentices casually, on the contrary, there will be unpredictable changes in luck and fate, whether it is good or bad, all need to be considered.

The figures of the two disappeared slowly, and Jin Lai followed the old man home, seeming a little scared.

The old man is the head of the village, but he does not live alone with the boss. He has two sons. The eldest son is married and has no children. The second son is illiterate, idle, and has no stable job. hang out.

Entering the yard, the old man's second son grinned at Jin Lai and didn't say much.

The old lady gave Jin an apple affectionately: "You child, you haven't eaten this day, wash your hands and eat."

At the dinner table, Jin Lai was a little cautious. The old man's eldest daughter-in-law, with heavy makeup, looked up and said, "Dad, I went out to work in Changchun, and I can't come back several times a year, and I won't give me any money. You give me 3000 yuan, and I'll buy a new one." A gold ring."

3000 yuan?

There is no income in the mountain village, just relying on a few acres of land, how much income can one year have?
The old man frowned, and before he spoke, the old man's second son was a little dissatisfied: "You woman, you don't really live with my elder brother. My elder brother's salary card is in your hands. He works hard to make money outside, and I have never seen it before." What Qian looks like, you’ve been guessing, look at you, today you’re better than this one, tomorrow you’re better than this one, you’re even more beautiful with heavy makeup on.”

Well, sister-in-law and younger uncle don't like each other, the old man and daughter-in-law threw their chopsticks, stood up and went out: "You would rather spend money to raise other people's children than spend money on me, this family can't stay here anymore. "

"Fuck off, I'm sorry if you dare to act recklessly, I'll let you know how powerful you are, hum. Just like that little boy, break your leg!"

The old man's eldest daughter-in-law cursed, pushed the chair, and yelled at Jin Lai: "Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

Jin Lai started to leave without saying a word, and the woman left the yard cursing: "Motherless bastard, it's annoying to see you."

"Smelly Girls"

The old man's second son "Teng" stood up, as if he was about to hit him.

The old man yelled, "Sit down!"

"This bitch is rubbish."

The old man's second son scolded, and then grinned to appease Jin Lai: "Don't worry about Jin Lai, she is the worst in this family, she has no brains, doesn't do good things, didn't you see, she hasn't given birth to our family for several years .”

Jin Lai ate in silence, but the old man was dissatisfied: "Changqiu, that's your sister-in-law, at least respect it, let's eat."

"Jin Lai, don't worry about it, your aunt just has a bad mouth."

Come in and nod, live under the fence, some people treat him well, some despise him, some people talk about him behind his back, he is young, but he knows that the life under the fence is the most miserable.

"That bitch."

Jin Zhu cursed: "It's just that she has no good intentions. My daughter-in-law was ruined a lot by her. Parents, I will keep my money for myself in the future. I am afraid that when I marry a wife, all my capital will be wiped out by this stinky bitch. "

"Gold."

The second son Changqiu is a bastard, but this kind of person is the best to get along with. This kind of person may be fierce, but after seeing each other, he is the most loyal: "School is about to start, I will go to the city with me tomorrow, and I will buy you two Clothes and shoes."

Jin Lai nodded silently, good or bad, he kept it in mind, this second uncle Changqiu was a straight-hearted man, he showed everything and didn't hide it, even though he was kicked once, it was because he refused to eat at the table .

"This Changqiu's heart is not bad."

Zhang Qingyun was a little surprised: "And he has a rich life in his life."

"Hey"

Yu He was a little helpless: "Some people are good, some people are bad. After all, Jin Lai is a child who depends on others, and he is still very fragile. If this continues, he will eat a lot of food, and I'm afraid it will have a bad influence."

"Aren't you already planning to accept disciples?"

Zhang Qingyun felt it was funny, since he had already made a decision, why bother to say more?Zhang Qingyun smiled and said: "You pay attention to your future disciples, I pay attention to this Changqiu, our focus is just different."

"Tell me, Jin Lai, is this kid suitable for cultivation?"

Yuhe became a little worried about gains and losses. When she planned to accept apprentices, Jin Lai's fate, she could not see clearly and vaguely.This is what it is, personal and always elusive.

"You think a little too much. Is it suitable for cultivation? With us here, will his future achievements be poor?"

Yuhe is smiling, Zhang Qingyun has boundless supernatural powers and unparalleled realm, she is already in the Dao realm, and he arranges the way of heaven, the Dao and the way casually, and as Zhang Qingyun's wife and her disciple, Zhang Qingyun can't beat her. ask?
There is no need to care about the future.

"I'm just a little surprised. This Changqiu's character is not bad, and he can bestow blessings."

Zhang Qingyun said with a smile: "Now this child is destined to grow up eating a lot of food. In the future, he can be regarded as a small achievement. He can give back to the village. You are accepting apprentices now, but you have created karma with their entire village. This needs to be paid back." .”

This is inevitable, if you come in alone, no one cares about you, just take the disciples and leave.However, the people in the mountain village are simple and honest, so long as they are willing to support Jinlai, regardless of their sincerity, this is a merit, and there is a cause and effect between future transformation and Jinlai.

As for Yuhe's apprenticeship, Yuhe needs to repay some of these karma.If Jinlai can come back in the future, Yuhe will have less karma to repay.

But Jinlai is going to be their second home, the planet they named Green Star, and the probability of returning in the future is not high. All these karma and rain loads need to be repaid, otherwise it will be detrimental to their own practice, and it will be detrimental to Jinlai. Practice is not good.

"I have to think about this, how to repay it."

Causal repayment needs to be done with discretion and cannot be biased.

This depends on the causality between Jin Lai and everyone in the village. Yuhe thought for a while: "So far, Jin Lai has more causality with the two families in the village. After all, the other villagers haven't raised him, so the causality is relatively small. It's just about the future"

Karma repayment can only be done by oneself. Zhang Qingyun can help Yuhe, but Zhang Qingyun does not intend to intervene in this matter.

"Now, think about how to recruit disciples."

Zhang Qingyun pointed at the village: "Fate is fleeting, and I have extended the time limit for you, but in order not to affect too many people in the world, at most tomorrow morning, fate will end, so you need to do it before tomorrow morning." , try to determine the status, and Jin Lai is willing to go to the Green Star with you."

Today, the weather is not very good.

Overcast and cloudy, with continuous autumn rain.There is not much rain, but if you don't have an umbrella, your clothes will still get wet.

Jin Lai was the same as yesterday, he wanted to see his mother, but Chang Qiu's second uncle wanted to take him to the city to buy clothes, so Jin Lai hesitated, he wanted to see his mother, so he said to Chang Qiu: "Two Uncle, I want to go see my mother first."

Chang Qiu said: "You go first, take the umbrella, wait for the rain to stop, then we will go to the city, don't run around, forget about the slippery mountain when it rains, I will go with you."

"Thank you, uncle."

Jin Lai felt a little warm in his heart. People in the village didn't like Second Uncle Changqiu, saying that he was not doing his job properly, that he was a bastard and not a good person, but Jin Lai knew that Uncle Changqiu opened a small supermarket in the city. It's not too small, employs some people, and he doesn't have to go to the city sometimes
Second Uncle Changqiu, in the eyes of coming in, is more capable than any young man in the village, but his education is not high.

And, it's good for him.

One big and one small walked into the mountains with umbrellas, Changqiu saw that Jin Lai wanted to lead the ox, and hurriedly stopped him: "Little guy, you can't lead this ox, you must know that the grass with rainwater will make the livestock sick if they eat it. "

The key is that it is raining, and it is not good for livestock to be exposed to rain. Old cattle will also get sick if they are exposed to rain.

Jin Lai shook his head: "Don't let the old cow eat grass today. My mother cares about the old cow most. When she was alive, my mother always asked me: Jin Lai, have you fed the cow yet? I want my mother to see if the old cow has not lost weight." "

Chang Qiu felt a little helpless: "You kid, you have to take it with you."

One big and one small petunias walked into the mountains, there was water everywhere, when the mountain wind blew, Changqiu shivered: "Hey, little guy, you are quite stubborn, like me, I was also very stubborn when I was young, so you don't have to worry about it." I was beaten. I didn’t go to school well, now I have to find ways to make money, my reputation is bad, and I haven’t married a wife at the age of 35. My brother is stupid and stupid, people want to find someone like my brother, and they don’t want me.”

Jin Lai didn't understand, and Chang Qiu didn't explain, just persuading him: "You're starting school soon, I think you look like me, I'm luckier than you, I have parents, but you are a man, although you are young, but you Be strong, and if you have any problems in the future, tell me, Second Uncle can help you."

Jin Lai felt very warm in his heart, he just nodded, remembering everything in his heart.

Soon, the two arrived on the mountain, the rain was getting heavier, and there was still some distance from the tomb, Jin Lai stopped in his tracks: "Second Uncle, look quickly."

Chang Qiu looked towards the tomb. In front of the tomb, a man and a woman were dressed strangely, but what was even weirder was that they were sitting there cross-legged, half a meter above the ground, and the rain was falling. The two seemed to be supporting each other. Invisible umbrellas, the rainwater separated from the tops of the two people and fell to the ground.In such a situation, Jin Lai felt very curious and dragged the cow forward, but Chang Qiu shivered coldly.

Deep in the mountains, autumn rain, such a strange scene, still in front of the grave.

"Golden Gold"

Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Chang Qiu said, "Let's go back."

At this moment, many horror movie titles appeared in Changqiu's mind, and many ghost legends that he had heard since childhood emerged.The scenes of these horror movies, as well as many ghost novels, gradually overlap with the scene in front of me: "I feel that we have hit an evil"
