My years as a fortune teller

The mad Taoist looked at me and said, "Boy, do you want to know why the 'Tianzun' you met in Anhui called me brother? What is the relationship with your master?"

As soon as I heard that these three people were really old acquaintances, I immediately nodded and said, "Tell me quickly, I'm already sitting down!" s story.

It turned out that Madaoren's father was born in a Chinese medicine family, and later went to Japan to study and took a Japanese teacher's daughter as his wife. This is Madaoren's mother.

A year later, the mad Taoist was born. According to the genealogy, the mad Taoist's grandfather named the mad Taoist Li Keren.The family lived happily in the town. Although the relationship between Japan and China was deteriorating day by day, the whole family did not discriminate against the Japanese daughter-in-law at all.

Li Keren was over five years old this year, probably influenced by his ancestors, he not only likes Chinese medicine but also likes to read Book of Changes and other books.

Li Keren's grandfather saw that a five-year-old child was actually reading the Book of Changes.It was very strange, so he invited the famous Hu Tiezui in the town to do the math for his grandson.

Hu Tiezui saw Li Keren's horoscope, and quickly congratulated Li Keren's grandfather.It is said that even if this child is not very rich in the future, he will be a grand master of the generation.

Li Keren's grandfather was overjoyed when he heard that, and immediately took out a hundred silver dollars as a reward to Hu Tiezui.As the saying goes, wealth does not reveal itself.No one thought that the one hundred silver dollars would bring a bloody disaster to this family.

Just a few months after this divination, it was Li Keren's grandfather's birthday.The whole family is busy for this important day.But on the night of birthday celebration, a group of bandits not only killed Li Keren's grandfather, father and the rest of the family, but also took Li Keren's mother and son to the mountain.

The bandit leader entrusted Li Keren, mother and son to his military advisor.This military adviser is none other than Hu Tiezui who went to Li's house to tell the fortune of young Li Keren that day.

It turned out that while Hu Tiezui was telling fortunes in the town, he also served as a military adviser for these bandits.The last time I went to Li Keren's house, I saw that Li Keren's family was very rich, and I accidentally saw Li Keren's mother, although she had given birth before, she was still as beautiful as a girl.The main reason is that when Hu Tiezui saw Li Keren's horoscope, he was secretly happy. Isn't this the person he has been looking for for several years?

At that time, he wanted to snatch Li Keren's mother and son into his hands, so he returned to the village and made a plan with the bandits on how to rob and kill.

In this way, Li Keren and his mother were put under house arrest in the mountains.In the second year, Li Keren had another younger brother. Although Li Keren was not Hu Tiezui's biological son, Hu Tiezui did not embarrass the young Li Keren.

A few years later, Li Keren was also in his teens, and his mother told Li Keren all the family affairs, so that he would always remember the family's blood feud, and one day avenge the whole family's old and young.Then hanged himself one night.

While weeping, Li Keren quietly buried all the hatred deep in his heart.Because he discovered a big secret, that is, Hu Tiezui would secretly practice a kind of exercise in a secret room every night.Although Li Keren didn't know what kind of work it was, he still had a vague feeling that there must be something to tell.

Then one day, Hu Tiezui took Li Keren and his brothers down the mountain to do errands, and was attracted by an old Taoist who behaved strangely in front of the Guandi Temple in the town.

I saw the old Taoist perform three worships and nine kowtows to the big tree in front of Guandi Temple for a while, and hugged the big tree for a while and whispered something.For a while, I poured all the melted vegetarian food on the root of the tree, and for a while, I sang songs again and again, picking up the food that fell on the ground and eating it in my mouth...

The kind-hearted Li Keren thought the old man was crazy, so he bought a few hot pancakes and put them lightly in front of the old man. The old man looked up at Li Keren and nodded, grabbed them and ate them without saying thank you.

Hu Tiezui and Li Keren's younger brother laughed at Li Keren together, but Li Keren didn't take it seriously.The three of them stayed at a nearby shop that night...

In the middle of the night, Li Keren, who was drowsily asleep, heard someone talking.Li Keren turned over and took a sneak peek. He was standing there alone and said something to Hu Tiezui.

Li Keren secretly opened his eyes a crack, he vaguely saw that this person didn't seem to be a bandit, and there must be something shady about his appearance now.While pretending to sleep, he pricked up his ears to hear what they had to say.

But the two were talking too softly to be heard.Hu Tiezui talked to this person for a while, then blew out the lights and went out quietly.

The weird behavior of the two aroused Li Keren's curiosity, so he quietly put on his clothes and followed him out.But Hu Tiezui and that person walked too fast, and Li Keren lost his target without following a few times.

While Li Keren was looking around, a figure appeared in front of him.Li Keren used the moonlight to see that this person was none other than the old man who had given him a few pancakes in the morning.

The old Taoist seemed to have been injured, and ran towards Li Keren staggeringly.It was about to run in front of Li Keren, but he still fell in front of Li Keren because of his heavy injury.

Li Keren hurried over to help the fainted old Taoist.At this time, there was a faint light of fire moving towards this side not far away, and Li Keren exerted all his strength to drag the fainted old Taoist towards the alley not far from him...

Just after hiding in a dark corner, I saw four or five holding torches and steel knives running viciously from the entrance of the alley.

Although these people left in a hurry, they could still faintly see that one of them was actually Hu Tiezui whom he had lost just now.

Seeing the group of people running past, Li Keren felt worried.I am still under the supervision of Hu Tiezui, and the person I saved was hunted down by Hu Tiezui.I don't want to, but Li Keren, who is kind-hearted, doesn't want to.At this moment, the old Taoist who passed out coughed a few times.

Li Keren helped the old Taoist up and shouted softly: "Master Daoist, Master Daoist. You are awake!" The old Taoist priest did not answer Li Keren's question, but tremblingly took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms .

Slowly poured out a small red pill from it, and stuffed it into his mouth.Then he pushed Li Keren away, and began to meditate cross-legged.

After about two cups of tea, the old Taoist slowly opened his eyes.Looking at Li Keren who was guarding him, he said: "Little brother, I am grateful to you tonight. Otherwise, the bones of the old Taoist would have been left here. The old Taoist's body has basically recovered now, so don't let it go, Qingshan will not die." I will come back to thank the little brother for his kindness in another day."

Said that the old Taoist stood up and was about to leave, but Li Keren grabbed the old Taoist robe and cried, "Prince Taoist, please take me away with you!"

The old Taoist was taken aback. Although the child in front of him was not gorgeously dressed, he was still neatly dressed.But his eyes were full of humiliation and hatred.The old Taoist patted Li Keren's head and asked, "Son, why do you want to go with me instead of staying at home to serve your parents?"

Li Keren choked up, and at the same time told all about what happened to him.The old Taoist was angry and startled when he heard it. The one who was angry was Zhou Tiezui's insidious, cunning and viciousness; the one who was shocked was that there was any amazing secret about this child in front of him?Hu Tiezui not only raised the child in front of him, but also taught the child what he had learned, and didn't even change the child's name. Isn't this strange?

The old Taoist thought for a while and told Li Keren to let him go back with Hu Tiezui first.On the first and fifteenth day of every month, go to the Dragon King Temple in Houshan, where he will be waiting for him.

Although Li Keren was unwilling, the old Taoist turned around and disappeared into the night.Li Keren had no choice but to kowtow three times to the old Taoist priest while watching the disappearing figure, stood up and walked silently to the inn...

After Hu Tiezui returned to the inn, Li Keren lay on the bed in the inn, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.Li Keren didn't close his eyes until the rooster crowed, but he was pushed up just as he fell asleep.

Li Keren rubbed his eyes and saw that Hu Tiezui had returned.Without saying a word, Hu Tiezui asked the two brothers to wash up, and then took them back to the cottage.
