Dual Cultivation Masters in Huadu

Chapter 6 Wine and Meat Taoist

"Didn't you see everything just now? Don't you believe it?" said the old Taoist.

"These days, there are all kinds of fakes. You can only count my own affairs." This middle-aged man is obviously not a vegetarian.

"What if I got it right?" The old Taoist was obviously a little angry.

Seeing the performance of the old man, the middle-aged man knew that the old man was a little timid, and said proudly: "If you really calculate correctly, I will pay you 500 yuan to solve the disaster for me. You count it, I am the number one at home What's the next one? Do you think it can be counted?" The middle-aged man was very sure.He has been traveling abroad since he was a child. His hometown is more than ten miles away from here. No one here knows him. If you want to calculate his ranking, there is no possibility of cheating.

The old Taoist smiled slightly, noncommittal, but instead smiled and asked the other party's birthday.That person also cooperated, and honestly reported a set of numbers.The old Taoist made another round of calculations.

"Ask for the name."

"Wu Zhongxian."

"This name is really elegant." The old Taoist nodded approvingly.Ye Ling completely understood the mystery of "clamping the gun", but she was still a little skeptical.

At this time, sitting in front of the old Taoist priest was a middle-aged man with a big belly. Judging from his appearance, he should be a person who has been doing business all year round.Now it's time to return home for the New Year.He took out a [-] note and put it into the merit box, then stretched out his right hand for the old Taoist to read his palm.

The old Taoist glanced at the palmistry of that person, and then said with a slight smile: "My benefactor, from your palmistry, you have a very long line of wealth and honor, and you have a lot of wealth in your life. It's just that you look at this wealth There is a break in the middle of the line, which means that when you are middle-aged, there will be a catastrophe, and the wealth behind you will be a little hanging."

The middle-aged man was startled, and hurriedly asked: "What should we do?"

"Old Taoist, since I can see your catastrophe, I naturally have a way to resolve it." The old Taoist said.

The middle-aged man knew the rules of fortune-telling, so he reached out and took out a hundred-yuan note, shook it and said, "Old man, let's be honest. I have seen quite a few fortune-tellers, and they are all nonsense. Don’t you just want to let me bleed to relieve my disaster? I’ve seen this a lot. I’ll only believe you if you show me some real skills today, otherwise I won’t be fooled.”

That person is obviously quite proud.In this mountain, in their generation, they got their names because of their wealth and status, and they were all dregs of the soil.There is no way, how can the country people have culture.

"Of course. My father said that my grandfather got this name. Back then, my grandfather was very knowledgeable, and his calligraphy was called a good one. Before liberation, people in the village called him a scholar." Middle-aged The man said proudly, "By the way, I asked you to count my rank in the family. Can you figure it out?"

The old Taoist sighed and said, "Such a superficial question is actually coming to me. Disciple, I will leave this question to you."

Ye Ling was still wondering.Ye Huiqiu already made a salute with one hand, and said: "Xiao Dao is superficial, just give it a try, if you make a mistake, please forgive me."If I count well, this benefactor is ranked second in the family. "

The man's mouth opened wide all of a sudden, and he said, "It's amazing, it's amazing. It's even calculated. Old god, offended, offended." Then he stretched out his hand and grabbed a handful of money and came out , About seven or eight hundred of them were thrown into the merit box.Said: "Old Immortal, Old Immortal, please do your best, and quickly relieve me of the catastrophe."

Only then did the old Taoist nodded in satisfaction, and said, "Since this benefactor is so honest, then I'll do it anyway, and show you the secret."

Ye Ling on the one side was really stunned this time, if the previous pinch was a bit of a word game, this time it was for real.Seeing this old Taoist priest's demeanor, Ye Ling could hardly believe Ye Huiqiu's words.She wanted to ask further questions, but when she saw pilgrims entering the hall one after another at this time, she suppressed her curiosity and went to the kitchen at the back to prepare lunch.

It was past twelve o'clock at noon, and there were still people gathered in front of the old Taoist's futon in the main hall.Ye Ling waited patiently until two o'clock in the afternoon, and the pilgrims who went up the mountain disappeared.

The old Taoist looked at the empty hall, and then jumped up like a civet.

"Bastard, Guan Shanmen, dinner is ready."

Ye Huiqiu was so hungry that his chest was sticking to his back. Hearing this, he immediately jumped out and closed the door of the main hall.At this time, the old Taoist priest had already rushed into the kitchen behind him.Ye Ling has already prepared a table of vegetarian dishes, tofu, vegetables and white water soup.

Ye Ling put down the bowls and chopsticks, and then saw the old Taoist quickly opened a secret cabinet, took out a large plastic bag from it, opened it, and found a roast chicken inside, and various All kinds of stewed meat, the smell of meat in the small kitchen for a while.

Ye Ling was dumbfounded on the spot.

"Master, isn't this Taoist abstaining from eating meat? Are you?" Ye Ling asked puzzled.

The old Taoist tore off a chicken leg and stuffed it into his mouth. He said vaguely: "Didn't Ji Gong say that the Buddha kept it in his heart after the wine and meat passed through his intestines. The old man is so open-minded." Let alone us juniors. Come on, everyone, hurry up and eat, I still have a lot here."

Ye Huiqiu was no stranger to this old Taoist's virtue.He reached out and took the roast chicken, then tore off the other chicken leg and handed it to Ye Ling, and began to eat a big piece of it himself.My family is poor, and it's rare to eat these things in normal times.While eating, Ye Huiqiu put the stewed meat into Ye Ling's bowl, piled up like a hill.

At this time, the old Taoist also took out a bottle of white wine as if by magic, and then began to drink for himself.

"Old Daoist Deng Cao, you are so uninteresting, why did you drink it by yourself, and pour some for me too." Ye Huiqiu said dissatisfied.

"You're a student, what kind of wine are you drinking?" the old Taoist said with wide eyes.

"I am no longer a student, I have dropped out of school." Ye Huiqiu said.

"What's going on, didn't I hear that your studies are very good?" The old Taoist asked in confusion.

"My family is poor. I will go out to work as a mason in the new year. I guess I will have little time to see each other in the future. So why don't you give me a drink?"

The old Taoist didn't ask any more questions, he found a cup and poured it for Ye Huiqiu.Ye Ling on the other side felt a little sad, and ate alone without saying a word.
