My years as a fortune teller

Cui Erye grabbed the wine and opened the lid with his teeth. The wine in the 70s is not like the current wine that can be opened with a twist.Like a beer lid, use a wedge.Unexpectedly, Cui Erye opened the wine with his teeth at such an advanced age.

Cui Erye opened the wine and poured it, and said: "Ah Zhang! I know you are not completely true, and you don't have so many taboos. So today I took out the old wine that I have treasured for many years, and let's chat casually while drinking some wine. In my heart, Second Master, you and Fatty Liu are the only ones who are truly friends. Let’s do it.”

Speaking of which, Erye Cui raised the glass in his hand, and Fatty Liu and I also raised the wine glass.The three wine glasses touched each other lightly, they talked dryly together, and then they drank a glass of wine with their heads raised.

It's been a long time since I drank, and I almost forgot what wine tastes like.I didn't know the taste of baijiu until the pungent smell rushed into my throat.

Because of my injury, I drank very little afterwards.It’s almost enough to sip it on the mouth, and the two of you have a cup and I have a cup.After a while, the bottle of wine was bottomed out, and Fatty Liu was still enjoying himself. Seeing that Cui Erye didn't take the wine, he ran out by himself to the small shop in the village, and sold another bottle of Taibai wine.I saw that I had to let them continue to drink. I drank some chicken soup, ate some rice, and went back to the house.

Back in the house, I fetched a basin of water and scrubbed my face.Then I sat by the bed and carefully read every word on the rubbings.Even the above map of the true shape of the Five Sacred Mountains is somewhat different from the stone carvings on the top of Mount Tai.

In the earliest book I have read that records ancient talismans called "The Collection of Five Talismans", it discusses the origin, function, and training methods of the five talismans.We are also called the innate five symbols.

The characters in the five talismans recorded in the book are very similar to the characters on the sarcophagus.It's a pity that what I saw was a fragmented copy, so the previous ones about how the five talismans were produced are just a few words.If it wasn't for the fact that the book was handed down secretly by my ancestor, I would definitely think it was a fake.

It may be the effect of alcohol, or it may be too tired to watch these things, a burst of drowsiness hit me, and I fell asleep lying on those rubbings before I knew it.

Suddenly, there was a sound of waves hitting the shore in my ears. I opened my eyes and saw that I was standing on the sea.A gust of sea breeze hits, chilling my body.Am I not sleeping, why did I come here?Could this be a dream, but why does it feel like the one in front of me is so real.

I was thinking wildly, and the ground I was standing on shook.Just look at the sea water rolling up and down like boiled water.It's like something is about to come out of the sea.

At this moment, I felt like there was someone behind me, and I turned my head abruptly.I saw the old Taoist priest with white beard who appeared in my dreams many times, standing behind me and looking at me with a smile.

Out of politeness, I bowed to the old Taoist priest with one hand and said: "The old Taoist priest is merciful, the younger generation is polite." I bowed deeply while speaking.

The old Taoist put his hands lightly, helped me up and said: "Get up, child, you are finally here." The old Taoist's words surprised me.

I stood up straight and didn't speak, just watched the old Taoist caress my injured right arm, muttering words.I felt a rush of hot air from the palm of my hand directly to the top of my head, and then circulated in my body a few times downstream, and then disappeared without a trace.

"Child," the old Taoist priest said to me: "You can take off the hard things on your arms. Your master is a bit harsh. Do you blame him?"

I took the bandages off my arm as the old Taoist said, and said to the old Taoist: "I don't blame the old man, he did it for my own good. I saw him cry at night." It’s over.” I felt extremely happy when I said this.

The old Taoist laughed when I said this, and then took my injured arm and looked carefully: "Move more, it will be better in ten days..."

Before the old Taoist finished his words, he heard the sound of rumbling on the sea.The old Taoist took a few steps forward, looked at the sea, and saw five stone pillars rising slowly from the sea.

The five stone pillars are cyan, red, yellow, white and black, arranged in a circular order.Seeing it, I couldn't help blurting out the sentence "Five Elements Stone Pillar".

The old Taoist stood on my body and said softly: "Yes, you can call it the Five Elements Pillar. Take a closer look at what is on each pillar?"

When I listened and looked closely, there seemed to be a line of words engraved on each pillar, but I couldn't make out a single word.Just when I was bored, suddenly I saw a place closer to the sea surface. Due to the reflection of the sea water, I vaguely saw a character that looked like a rune.

I just thought of the talisman, and immediately thought of the rubbing.I hurriedly touched the rubbing, but I couldn't find where to put it.

I was in a hurry, when the old Taoist said: "Fool, isn't that what you are looking for on the pillar?" I raised my head and said, "I can't see it!"

"Don't look with your eyes." The old Taoist said softly: "You have to look with your heart, you have to look with the eyes of your heart. Only the eyes of your heart can see this god of heaven and earth."

As soon as I heard it, I immediately closed my eyes and slowly fell into meditation.Feel it with your heart.Slowly....slowly....I suddenly felt a golden light in front of my eyes, and the words on the stone pillar became huge, and all of them appeared in front of my eyes...

Yes, these enlarged characters are the characters on the rubbings, which are clearer than those on the rubbings.Although I don't know what each word stands for?Don't know how to pronounce it?

Suddenly I saw a special word, which I hadn't seen in the rubbings.But I am looking carefully to see if there are any bad characters, because it is constantly changing.Every time I move it, a new character is formed, but before I can see it, I move it again and it becomes another character.

Naturally, I couldn't meditate if I had doubts in my heart. In order to see the spinning word clearly, I opened my eyes and took a step forward.I didn't expect that I would fall when I missed a step.

I didn't expect that there was an abyss below, and I fell quickly...

"Ah" I woke up from my dream.Another similar dream.I wiped the sweat from my brow, and my whole body was wet.I was about to stand up and look at the watch on the table when I suddenly found that all the bandages and other items on my injured arm had fallen off. "Is this a dream?" I asked myself in my heart.

I raised my injured arm and moved it, and it seemed to be really healed.I didn't pay attention to it either, and looked at the watch below after three o'clock in the morning.I couldn't sleep at this time, so I wiped my face with a towel, then sat on the edge of the bed and looked at the rubbings carefully.

I still followed the old method and copied them one by one into the notebook.But gradually I discovered a problem. Although these characters are very different from the characters on the talismans we use in modern times, they are vaguely similar to the characters on the current talismans.But the order is messed up.

It seems that these two characters are commonly used in fortune-seeking talismans, but the third character is very similar to the one commonly used in modern exorcising ghosts and evil spirits.Why does this happen, is it our fault or...

Just when I was puzzled, a flash of fire suddenly flashed in front of my eyes.I immediately looked around, wondering if I didn't smoke, where did the fire come from.

"Firelight" I kept thinking in my heart, "By the way," I yelled.Isn’t fire one of the non-actions?And just dreamed of the last five-element stone pillar.

Thinking of this, I patted my thigh. Doesn’t that sarcophagus also have a lid, a bottom, two walls, and two ends?That way I can find out the secret.

So I looked at it according to the rubbings, and I actually found that according to this, there is a rule in their arrangement, and the characters with the same shape are grouped together and form a formation.

I slowly used the pen to outline the formation formed by the glyphs, and put them out as they were. I didn't know them, and I still didn't know them if I put them upside down.

Hey, it seems that I am talking too much too early.At best, I can recognize these ghost characters. I can't decipher its arrangement and use. It seems that I have to ask Master and Teacher Mad Taoist to help.

Thinking of this, I slapped heavily on the bed, and the hand stamp was pressed on a chapter of rubbings.The rubbing paper was a little thin, and it was actually torn.I gently picked up this rubbing, and looked at the true shape map of the Five Sacred Mountains in the center of the coffin lid, surrounded by a dozen characters on both sides.

Seeing that it really hurts, a light flashed in my head.By the way, is this formation arranged according to the method of the Five Sacred Maps?

Thinking of this, I immediately placed the five rubbings in the order of the true shapes of the Five Sacred Mountains.It doesn't look right, it's completely out of order.Then place them counterclockwise, and you can see that every line of the formation fits perfectly.

I was overjoyed, that's right, that's it.I picked up a glass of water on the table and drank a few sips, then looked back at my formation, it was okay if I didn’t look at it, but I was shocked when I saw it.This... this... this is actually the Wuyue Soul Locking Formation...
