My master is the coffin

Chapter 160
The sloppy Taoist priest thought for a while and said, "It's considered to be seen, but it's also considered not to be seen."

I was puzzled and asked: "If you see it, you see it, if you don't see it, you don't see it. What do you mean by that?"

The slovenly Taoist priest explained: "When the man poisoned, it was in front of the two of us, but Master and I didn't realize it. After a few days, when the poison occurred, it was too late. Later we followed Following this clue, I tried to find that person, but failed, and my master disappeared at that time."

The fat man chuckled: "Brother, do you think the two of them are stupid? They don't go to the hospital after being poisoned, and they run around."

The thin man glanced at him faintly, and sighed: "Brother, don't call me brother from now on, I really can't afford to lose this man."

The sloppy Taoist didn't know much about Fatty yet, so he explained seriously: "The person who poisoned us has something to do with Taoism, ordinary hospitals can't do anything about it."

I was very interested and asked: "What is going on? Who poisoned you? Tell us, and we will analyze it for you."

The slovenly Taoist priest nodded and said: "This place used to be a Taoist temple. It wasn't a garbage dump. At that time, I was still very young. I stayed in the Taoist temple with my master, chanting scriptures and practicing every day. Occasionally, some rich people When someone dies, they will invite us to do rituals. They live a leisurely life. But one day, something happened."

When the sloppy Taoist priest said this, his voice suddenly changed, our hearts were in our throats, and we looked at him nervously.

The sloppy Taoist priest stared at the void, as if recalling the scene back then.He said: "It was winter, and the cold wind was blowing. Master and I were huddled in our respective quilts. I heard the wind in my ears, and I was just about to fall asleep in a daze. Suddenly someone The door was knocked on. Master was already fast asleep, snoring everywhere. I was young and woke up immediately. I called Master: "Master, someone is calling outside." Master's snoring stopped immediately, and then said: "It's so cold Oh my god, I don’t want to get up as a teacher, so we pretended we didn’t hear it. After a while, no one paid attention to him, and he left by himself.” After hearing this, I felt relieved and continued to lie on the bed.”

The fat man asked, "Did that person leave later?"

The slovenly Taoist smiled wryly: "If this person left, the following things wouldn't happen. But he didn't leave, and kept banging on the door. In the end, there was nothing he could do. The master got up cursing, put on his clothes and opened the door for him." I opened it. When that person walked in, I immediately felt a burst of cold air blowing in from the door, and I quickly shrank my neck into the quilt. Then I looked at that person under the light, on the top of the head, on the shoulders , all with snowflakes, it turned out that it was already snowing outside.

"As soon as the man entered the door, he said anxiously: "Master Dao, it's not good, something happened to our family. "The master closed the door, and said flatly: "I know something happened to your family, otherwise, you wouldn't have knocked on my door in the middle of the night, so tell me, what happened. The man looked anxious: "My wife is sick."It's caused by dirty things, so hurry up and take a look. "Master sighed, nodded and agreed. I know he doesn't want to go, but a cultivator has chivalry in his heart, and he can't shirk when encountering such a thing."

I couldn't help laughing when I heard this: "Cultivators, do you have a heart for chivalry? Why didn't you think of this when you master and apprentice set up a conspiracy to kill me?"

The slovenly Taoist didn't show any embarrassment on his face, instead he said plausibly, "Now we, master and apprentice, are no longer human, ghosts or ghosts, and we can't even keep ourselves, so what chivalry is there?"

Wushuang pointed at the sloppy Taoist priest and said, "Go ahead, Xu You don't interrupt."

The sloppy Taoist continued: "At that time, Master was about to leave the house, and although I have practiced with Master for several years, I have never seen ghost hunting. I always make dojos for dead people and leave. One is because of curiosity, The second is that I am young, and I am not afraid of going out in the cold, so I begged Master, saying that I want to go too. Master thought for a while, nodded and said: "I don't worry about leaving you alone in the Taoist temple. If someone kidnaps a child What should I do if I was kidnapped?Come on, put on your clothes and follow me." So I got up, put on my clothes, and followed the master and the man. It was very dark outside, but the ground was extremely white. I was wearing cotton clothes, and followed the master and the man. Walk on the road with a deep foot and a shallow foot.

"When I walked halfway, I regretted it. Because it was too cold, and the snow was thick, I was small, and my steps were small, and I had to struggle with almost every step. And the master and that person have been walking in silence. Then, neither of them spoke. You know, it’s scary to walk this kind of night road without talking. So I retreated several times. But fortunately, I have seen lights in the distance, and the place we are going will soon Arrived."

When the sloppy Taoist talked about this, he sighed resentfully, and said: "After so many years, I still remember that door clearly. The big red door has colorful door gods on it. When entering the door, the master first worshiped the door god. According to him, he has opened his eyes and can see ghosts and gods. However, the villager didn't think much of what Master did. The villager said: "If the door god is useful, I won't let the little ghost go to my wife's body." Chang, if you can save my wife, I will post your portrait on it.” My master smiled disapprovingly, and said to him: “Let me see the patient first.” Then he pulled me, Went to the yard.

"After the villager entered the door, he pointed to a bed in the suite and said: 'She is lying on the bed. There was a lot of noise just now, but it seems to be quieter now.' Master nodded and said to me: 'You wait outside. , I’ll go in and have a look.’ I was very curious and wanted to follow in, but the master didn’t agree. He said that I was too young and my foundation was unstable, and it would be troublesome if I got the Tao. I just nodded and let him go and myself, sitting on a chair outside, waiting for him.

"At that time, both of them went into the inner room, and I heard a rambling voice. I was the only one left in the living room outside. The electric light was also very dim. I don't know why, but I suddenly felt a little scared. My eyes were fixed on the room inside. Suddenly, out of the corner of my eyes, I caught a glimpse of a person standing beside me. But when I turned my head to look, I couldn't see anything.

"When I was wondering, suddenly a hand patted behind me, and I was startled. Turning around suddenly, I saw a kind old woman looking at me with a smile on her face. My heart was pounding Jumping, looking at her nervously, unable to say a word.

"The old grandma seemed to see that I was scared, patted my head and said: "Healed with your master? "As soon as my master was mentioned, I gradually gained confidence in my heart, so I nodded and said, "Yes, I came to treat illnesses with my master. The old woman said: "It is my daughter-in-law who is sick, and I am her mother-in-law." At this time, I suddenly realized, and said: "It turns out that you are a family."I am not so scared anymore. "

"The old woman picked up a glass of water from the table and said: 'The child must have been frozen. In such a cold day, there is no stove in the house.' I nodded. The family did not have a stove, and the house was cold and cold. .In such a cold day, aren't they afraid of freezing? The old woman handed me the water: "Come on, take the hot water and warm your hands. If it's still cold, drink the water. "

"You know, ordinary children are very reserved in other people's homes. They don't eat casually. But it was too cold that day. I drank the cup of hot water. The old woman was very happy and pointed at the table. Another glass of water and said: "When your master finishes his work, let him warm up too. "I agreed. Then the old woman opened the curtain and went into another room.

"In just two to three minutes, the master came out of the room. As he walked, he said, "It's not a big problem. Just get some sleep and you'll be fine tomorrow." The man was very grateful, and politely asked the master to sit down. The master frowned: "Your room is too cold, let me take a breath, slow down and leave immediately." "Then he casually picked up the glass of water on the table and drank it down. The man stood aside in embarrassment and said: "It's a little cold in the room, it's a little cold. The master said casually, "It's time to build a stove."You see, I am a Taoist, and there are coal stoves in Taoist temples. The man sighed, with a sad expression on his face: "It's not that I don't want to light the stove."Hey, the stove was still alive two days ago.But my mother caught gas and just died.Tell me, I don't even have the heart to light the stove. "The master also sighed after hearing this, with a look of sympathy on his face.

"At that time, although I was young, I could tell something was wrong. I asked the man, "Uncle, how many mothers do you have?" "The master was a little angry when he heard this, and said to me: "How does this child talk? I quickly explained: "Master, I saw an old woman just now and said it was his mother." The villager was taken aback and asked, "You saw an old woman?" "I nodded, and described the appearance of the old grandma. The villager's face was ashen, and he said in a daze: "It's really my mother. "

"Then I pointed to the water glass on the table: "This water is also poured by the old lady. "The villager was about to cry. My mother was the most kind-hearted when she was alive. She must have seen you coming to treat illnesses in the middle of the night, so I felt sorry and went out to pour a cup of hot water.

"My master nodded and said: "It seems that this is indeed the case.Otherwise, after you have been out for so long, the water is still hot, which is really unreasonable. "
