one's door

Chapter 130
When Zhang Huiyuan knocked on the door for the third time and asked Zhang Yan to come out for dinner, Zhang Yan was able to reap the rewards.Responding again, he got up and opened the door.

"Bro! Brother, why are you so smelly? What's the matter with you?"

Compared with the previous breakthroughs, this time Zhang Yan's body was squeezed out more impurities during the formation of Dao Pill.When reading Taoist scriptures before, there were these related descriptions. Zhang Yan said with a smile that it was "spraying dung from the pores", but now I feel that these four words describe it appropriately.

At this time, Zhang Yan not only felt hunger in his body, but also had a foul smell all over his body.It's like crawling out of a cesspit.The moment he opened the door, his little sister Zhang Huiyuan was staggered.

"Sweat smells, sweat smells. You guys go to eat first, and I'll fetch water to wash myself."

Yesterday, he sent his attendant Zeng Hao to fill a tank full of water, and there was still half of the tank left after dinner. Zhang Yan walked out of his room awkwardly, and rushed to a small room next to the kitchen under the surprised eyes of the three at home. In the water room, just wash the body with cold water.It took three washes in a row to get rid of the bad smell on my body.

When he came out, the eldest brother Zhang Shun had already taken his younger sister Zhang Huiyuan to the store.

"Yan'er, is there something wrong with you?" Wang Lanping couldn't figure out how a person could smell so bad when he woke up.I was worried that my son had some strange disease.A look of concern.

"Mother, don't worry, it's okay. I'm practicing a skill taught by my old master before, to strengthen my body. If I stink now, I won't be like this in the future."

Although Zhang Yan pulled out "Master" as a shield again, he didn't talk nonsense.Because according to the miscellaneous records in the Taoist scriptures, the body will be continuously forged out of impurities during the process of practice, and gradually tend to be born in a state that is not polluted by the world's turbid air.This kind of process will not run through the whole process of practice, and generally [-]% of it will be completed when it reaches the middle and late stages of the Dao Dan state, and even if there are impurities to be forged in the future, it will not be as much and so smelly as this time up.

Sure enough, when Wang Lanping heard that this was a method taught by the "teacher", most of the worries in her heart disappeared immediately.A smile appeared on his face again.Looking at her second son so seriously, Wang Lanping realized that the second son's skin looked better than yesterday, and his handsome appearance was pleasing to the eye.If you go to the street secretly, you don't know how many girls will be fascinated.

no.Yan'er is no better than Shun'er.He is capable, good-looking, and a scholar of a wide range of studies, so he can't choose a marriage carefully?Wang Lanping secretly made a decision in her heart, she couldn't let her second son's marriage be hasty, she had to look higher.

The second son was eating breakfast, Wang Lanping sat on the side and watched, and found that the second son seemed to have a good appetite today, and eating three meatloaf was not enough, so she went to get two leftover rice balls from yesterday, and ate it before holding on.

What a day!Wang Lanping was in a good mood seeing her two sons eating happily.Now the eldest son's marriage is in full swing, and the second son said that he will change to a big house. The two fertile fields in the family are now growing gratifyingly and outshine all the surrounding land. Even the newly opened carpentry shop is doing very well. The store has been expanded.
These good things one after another made Wang Lanping laugh in her dreams.

All this began to change when the second son Zhang Yan escaped from the dead.Relying on the skills taught by the master, he came back from pleading guilty to soldiers all the way, and even took two pieces of military merit for his family.Later, those pills and wheelchairs were also made, all thanks to the great blessing of the master.Wang Lanping kept this in mind all the time.

Sometimes Wang Lanping also thinks that if she has the opportunity to meet the old master, she must kowtow to him, thank him well, and treat him as an elder in the family.

It's a pity that the second son said that since the old master said that he had taught him almost, he never appeared again.Not even a name was mentioned.In addition to adding to the mystery, Wang Lanping also regretted not being able to thank and repay her kindness in person.

"Yan'er, you said that the master has been so kind to our family, your life was saved by the skills taught by the master, and our family these days, how could it not be due to the kindness of the master? To the master Would it be good to hang a blessing of longevity?"

Fortune?

Zhang Yan was taken aback for a moment.But he reacted quickly.

There is no such thing as praying to gods and worshiping Buddha in Huangtianyu.But it does not mean that the people here do not have good expectations and sustenance on the spiritual level.For example, when Zhang Yan was tossing the "talisman" in Yubeishan Fortress, Huagou despised the "talisman" that Zhang Yan made was too ugly and said he had it himself.In fact, Huagou's so-called amulet at that time was a common spiritual sustenance in Huangtianyu.Originated from "ancestor worship".

Pray for the protection of the ancestors, pray for good luck and ward off disasters.In fact, there is a certain inevitability in the simple desire.

The blessing that Wang Lanping mentioned just now is a custom derived from ancestor worship.Not only in Langyuan City, but also in most places in Nanyuan Kingdom.

It is actually simple to say, that is, to hang the portraits of the ancestors in the middle hall of the home or in a special side hall, there will be offerings of melons and fruits, and some ceremonial worship activities will be performed on festivals or ancestors' birthdays and memorial days.In general, it is not much different from the situation of enshrining spiritual tablets on the earth.

It's just that not every ancestor will be hung up as a blessing and worshiped by future generations.Only those representatives who are highly respected in the family or have great significance can be hung up as blessings.

And what is said in Langyuan City is that one does not have to be dead to be a blessing, but one can also be alive.Even having a blessing while alive is still a great thing to pray for a hundred years old.

Seeing that Zhang Yan was in a daze, Wang Lanping asked again, and finally said: "Master has been kind to our family. He is completely qualified to be our family elder. Say something."

Although Wang Lanping thinks that the old acquaintance should be hung with a pair of blessings to pray for a hundred years old, but now the person who is in charge of the family is her second son, and the final decision must be made by the second son.Naturally, Wang Lanping knew the proportions.

Zhang Yan nodded and agreed with his mother's words.But what was on my mind was another matter.Because he himself knows that his own ability is not taught by any master, but from the background of the Longhu Mountain Taoism, and the learning he has learned on and off for so many years on the earth.

So whose portrait is hung on this blessing?
After Zhang Yan thought about it, he finally made a decision.Since you want to hang it, it's better to do it in one step.As for how to explain when, anyway, I have already told so many white lies before, so I don't care about adding a little more.

After breakfast, Zhang Yan went to the carpentry shop first. Seeing Zeng Hao, he came here to follow the busy work very consciously, and even had a heated fight with Carpenter Liu, so he didn't even notice when he entered the door.

So Zhang Yan didn't call Zeng Hao, and turned his head out of the carpentry shop. He was going to see the new house today, and by the way, he would get the good fortune arranged by Wang Lanping.
