My years as a fortune teller

Two days later we boarded the train going north.Before I went, I dragged Old Zhao down the bathhouse once, my God!I thought I was dirty and sloppy enough, but I didn't expect there to be someone dirtier and sloppier than me.

Fortunately, I was looking for a relatively small hot spring bath that I could soak in.The person rubbing the old man's back kept looking at me strangely.That look may be saying: "My son also looks quite clean, why is I just like a beggar."

I just looked at the dirt that the back scrubbers had rubbed off of Old Zhao's head. It might be enough to build a house.Fortunately, there were not many people taking a bath at that time, otherwise I must have found a mouse hole and got into it.I told the master and the teacher about this later, and the two old men were so happy that they didn't shut up for a whole day.

Old Zhao's face was leisurely and complacent, and he kept nagging: "Hey, I said it's the first time that your kid is so kind to you Mr. Zhao. Later, I will find a pedicure for you Mr. Zhao. Put the above The corns have been removed, otherwise my feet hurt and I can’t walk.” After a while, he said: “Boy, get some wine and vegetables. Drink some wine after soaking in the bath. It’s not appropriate to squint for a while.” The waiter said: "Go and tell your boss that the water in this pool is dark, and ask him to change it to another pool. If you return it, we will have another meeting!"

At that time, I really felt that I brought the old man to the wrong place. Others should at least wash it down after taking a shower.This man went straight into the pond, and changed the water when it was dirty.He also yelled at me.The most depressing thing for me is that I don't wear clothes when I go out.Make me go buy a new one!Uncle's young master, I took an hour's car ride to replace him from the inside to the outside.

In the end, the waiter desperately asked me to take away a pile of stinky clothes.I took out the clothes with a dark face, found a place and set it on fire.To be honest, this is the thing I regret the most, and I will never do such a thing again.My master and teacher would take a cold bath before offering sacrifices to the gods on the first and fifteenth day of every month.This old man probably hasn't taken a bath since he was a farmer.

But this old man does have a hand. He saw Mr. Guo's situation in my room.He drew a talisman, burned it and put it in a water glass for Mr. Guo to drink.

When it was over, Mr. Guo was actually locked in the bathroom. Within half an hour, he heard a sound of "boom tom" in the bathroom.At first I thought something was wrong in the toilet, I was going to have a look.

Old Zhao grabbed me, and said to me: "Why do you want to go, kid? If you don't think it smells bad, you can go. I'm telling you that there is a body smell inside! It smells bad, so you'd better not go."

I almost jumped up when I heard this, and shouted to the old man: "Old Zhao, you are a typical revenge. Thanks to my young master who treats you so well. I even took you to take a bath. You don't even look at how... Before I finished speaking, Old Zhao covered my mouth with his head.

Then the old Zhao head said to me quietly: "Okay, don't talk about it, I was a little reckless just now and didn't tell you in advance. Let's stop here!" Second Master's side.

It is right for the cursed person to discharge the stench of corpses through farting.But the toiletries in my bathroom must have been stained with the stench from the exhaust.This smell can't be washed off, so I can only throw these away.Can you tell me not to be angry?

About twenty minutes later, someone knocked on the bathroom door.No need to ask, I know who it is, but this will open the door and the stench will come out. At that time, it will not be my fish that is smoked to death.

Thinking of this, I knocked on the door and said to the inside: "Mr. Guo, don't come out first, there are bathing facilities on the facade. You take a shower first, and I will turn on the exhaust fan to let the air out. I will talk about it later. Don't wear your own clothes, wear mine first!" Guo Yi couldn't help it, the bathroom door was locked from the outside, and I wouldn't let him out unless he took a shower.

After I went back to the study and sat down, Erye Cui asked why I did this.I pulled Old Zhao's head, and he introduced him to Cui Erye with a smile.

After this incident, Mr. Guo treated Lao Zhaotou just like his own father.When getting on the train, what Old Zhao wants, he immediately rushes to buy it.This old Zhao head is so good at making moths, he bought a soft sleeper in the first place.

He will drink with Mr. Guo and Mr. Cui in a while.After a while, he sang and talked about history.After a while, he asked Mr. Guo to buy this food and that food.This is the first time I saw that a sixty-year-old man could eat so much that his mouth hardly stopped.I didn't have a good rest the whole time, but luckily I was close to my goal.If you sit for more than ten hours, you must eat all the food on the train.This old man is so good at making moths!

Mr. Guo's home is a small county in northern Shaanxi. This place is not as good as the most affluent Shenmu and Ansai with a long history of revolution.However, with the development of energy industries such as coal and oil in recent years, people here have gradually moved away from the life of facing the loess and turning their backs to the sky.

Since ancient times, the land in northern Shaanxi has been relatively barren, with sparse vegetation and heavy wind and sand.Drought and little rain every year, even in the revolutionary era, even though it was a revolutionary base, it was inevitable that the dragon king was carried to pray for rain.

In the past few years, with the discovery of coal mine resources everywhere, the excavation of oil wells.The people here are gradually getting rid of poverty and living a life that they could not even imagine in the past.

Although life is better, there are still many cave dwellings here.Cave dwellings are divided into earth cave dwellings, stone cave dwellings, brick cave dwellings, soil base cave dwellings, willow rafter Liubazi cave dwellings and interface cave dwellings.Our ancestors thrived in cave dwellings and grew gradually.

Although Mr. Guo lives upstairs in the county seat, his parents still live in a cave dwelling in the countryside.However, this cave dwelling is a typical brick kiln, no worse than the tile-roofed houses in the rural areas of the Central Plains.

Mr. Guo took us back to his hometown, where his parents were.I was completely intoxicated by the scenery in front of me, a piece of green grass, tall and straight poplar trees.Seeing such a scene, I really want to ride a horse and gallop in the fields.

Slowly down the hillside along the field path, it is a courtyard of each family.There are four or five cave dwellings in each courtyard.There is a fruit tree in the courtyard. I only found out it was a persimmon tree after I asked.

The cave dwellings are clearly divided, and the one facing the courtyard door is the owner's cave dwelling.Next to it is a cave dwelling for children, a toilet, a kitchen, and a cave dwelling for raising livestock.I took a look, and there was a small square hole under the windows of the cave dwellings. Needless to say, I knew it was a kang cave.It is used to burn kang in winter.

When Mr. Guo saw his parents, he kowtowed to his luggage.Mr. Guo's parents are authentic farmers in northern Shaanxi and cannot speak a word of Mandarin.It was very difficult to listen to the three of us!However, the language is close to my hometown, so I can probably understand the words of "fucking balls and the like."

Finally, I secretly asked Cui Erye and found out: "Mr. Guo's nickname is Maodandan!" I almost laughed out hearing this nickname.This is too local.

As soon as the old man heard that we had cured his son, the old couple knelt down and kowtowed to us.I pushed Erye Cui over.Cui Erye pulled and tugged again and again to pull the old couple up.Then the most ridiculous thing was that the old couple couldn't understand what Cui Erye said, and Cui Erye couldn't understand what the old couple said.

In the end it was Mr. Guo who helped us explain.The old couple helped us into the cave, pushed and pulled us to sit on the kang.Before he could sit still, the small kang table was covered with red dates, walnuts and other things.

I glanced at Old Zhao, and while drinking tea, I listened to Mr. Guo's father chattering.To be honest, I can only hear a sentence or a half even if I guess.

After a short time, Mr. Guo's mother brought the meal.Looking at the dishes on the table, I didn't know how to eat them.

It was Cui Erye who told me with a smile, this one is yam chacha, that one is stir-fried local vegetables with local eggs, there are wild vegetables with peanuts, and there is a kind of steamed bun that looks like it is baked.Bite down and almost broke my teeth.Finally, I saw a stick thicker than chopsticks inside!After asking, I found out that this bun is called stick bun.It's killing me!However, the potato and wild vegetable paste is still delicious.

The old man talked for a long time while giving way, but I didn't understand a word.In the end, Mr. Guo said that his old father said that we came in a hurry and were not prepared, so he made us mutton stew and stewed mutton at night.

After dinner, Mr. Guo showed us around, and only then did I know his name was Guo Yulin.Cui Erye secretly told me that this boy was originally called Guo Gouzi.Elementary school culture, the current name was changed by the teacher at that time.When I heard this, I was even more skeptical that Guo Yulin must be Cui Erye's godson.

After walking around for a while, I suddenly saw an antique building not far away.There are generally no buildings on the ground nearby, but this building is on the ground.Only after I asked Guo Yulin did I know that it was a temple.There are temples, for practitioners like Lao Zhao and me, they must go to visit and worship.

When Guo Yulin saw that we were going to the temple, he refused to let us go.After asking for a long time, I told us hesitantly that the temple is very evil, and it is easy for people to enter the evil.

Old Zhaotou and I glanced at each other, smiled and left without looking back.What are the two of us doing, aren't we exorcists?Is it still possible to be afraid, let's talk about it here, it's not right to go to the temple to worship because of emotion and reason.

Walking to the gate of the temple, there are three big characters "Sanhuang Temple" written on it.When I saw the "Three Emperors", I immediately understood that this place is actually a Taoist temple.People in many areas don't distinguish between temples and Taoism, and they are all temples.

Old Zhao looked at me and said, "Boy, do you know who the Three Emperors are? When did they first arise and which faction do they belong to?"

I sneered and said: "The three emperors are the emperor of heaven, the emperor of earth and the emperor of man. It's just that the identification of the three emperors is not very unified in ancient times. "Zhou Li" says that the three emperors are Fuxi, Shennong, and Huangdi. "Lu Shi Chunqiu" Fuxi, Shennong and Nuwa. Ban Gu said in the book that they are Fuxi, Shennong, Zhurong or Suiren. My Taoism generally focuses on Fuxi, Shennong and Huangdi."

At this point, I looked at the old Zhao head, and then said: "The Sanhuang sect also belongs to the Zhengyi sect, but it didn't develop later. According to the actual records, the silk harmony of the Silk family Taoism was obtained from the scriptures on the stone walls in the mountains. Created. But there are two kinds of scriptures, one is called "Xiao You San Huang Wen" also known as "Xiao You Jing". The other is Bao Liang's secret collection in "Da You Palace". "Da You Jing". So at that time, some people said that the scriptures of the Three Emperors were obtained by Bao Liang in Songshan. He was also a teacher of Zuo Yuanfang. Ge Hong, its main content is to impeach ghosts and gods and so on, as well as the technique of thinking about the true form of gods. It can be said that it was a major scripture school besides the Danding School and the Fulu School in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Later, it gradually disappeared. Inheritance and development. It is a pity that only a small part of the scriptures of the Three Emperors are recorded in the "Orthodox Daozang."

Old Zhao nodded and said, "Your knowledge is comprehensive, but I can tell you. The fact that the Three Sovereigns didn't pass on at the end has something to do with Chumaxian. There are many people who recruit ghosts or monsters. Mantras and spells. This is mutually exclusive to the development of Taoism, so it has gradually lost its inheritance. However, some Taoism is still inherited by Maoshan and other sects."

I nodded. It turns out that the Three Emperors School has lost its inheritance.
