Chapter 41
"Okay, aunt." The little Taoist seemed to be in his early twenties, and his face was pink and white, as if he could pinch water.The thick eyebrows seemed to be dyed with ink, with a sense of uprightness.A pair of dazzling black eyes that seem to be able to see past and present lives, smiling like a crescent moon, and solemn like a cold star.Straight nose bridge, bright red lips, when she chuckles, she looks like feathers falling, sweet as sugar, and when she is silent, she is as cold as ice.The profile of the side face is as sharp as a knife, with sharp edges and corners but still soft. If you wear a light blue robe and hold a whisk in your hand, you will really look like a master outside the sky.

"It's okay, it's just a collision with a wandering soul. In the future, you will be less likely to touch the things of the dead. That old man got on your body because of a predestined relationship with you, and talked through your mouth." I didn't see how he did it, so I just said it was an old man , it can be seen that there are still some real skills.

Old man Wang asked some more about his son, and asked if he could give his son a message. The Taoist said that he was going to find a person who can pass through the shadows.Regarding the water ghost in the weir pond, the Taoist priest said that he could help collect the soul, and all the attention was attracted as soon as the words came out.

"Recover the soul?" Everyone said in unison, as if they had heard something incredible.You can still collect souls, Maoshan faction is orthodox!
There are also self-proclaimed Taoist priests in our area, but these Taoist priests in the village just look at feng shui to tell their fortunes, and they are all fake Taoist priests.They only know some miscellaneous things they learned at school, spells, etc., and they know a little bit. If they have nothing to do, they can show people the house and tombs, and they can dance a few times at the funeral.

The little Taoist turned and left calmly, as if he was used to being questioned and respected by others, and he was no longer surprised by anything.

"Why did he go in there?" Father asked Xiao Si, did he go in to get something? "Si Er, is this cousin of yours a true Taoist priest?" Father really wanted to ask an expert to be his teacher, and he would not come again if the opportunity is not lost. If this is really someone with magic spells, he would immediately learn from a teacher. Thinking about it, he felt that the future was bright Light!

The Taoist didn't know whether he heard his father's words or how he looked back at him. The look in his eyes couldn't tell whether it was disdain or contempt, which made his father feel embarrassed. "It's been five or six meters, and you can hear such a small voice?" My father wondered in his heart, because he couldn't hear it after practicing the wind.

Now it's almost time for lunch. When my father left, my grandma was already preparing in the kitchen. Almost all the dishes were on the table and waiting.The Taoist seems to be trying to collect the wronged souls in the water. Do you want to see it?The bottom of my heart was suddenly tangled.The tempting aroma of vegetables wafted in the air, and many people in the village were busy eating lunch, and their stomachs also growled.

Xiaosi's mother saw that it was getting late, so she forgot to cook while watching Old Man Wang and his nephew talking about the red fish and water ghost. Really neglected people.After thinking about it, he shouted to the back of the little Taoist: "Nephew, don't mess with it first. Auntie goes in to cook. Let's talk about it after eating." After speaking, he smiled and asked his father: "Ping'er. How about you I’m also eating here, and Er Huzi, I haven’t eaten at my house for a long time, and it happens that my aunt is going to make delicious food today.”

"Hey, auntie, no, I'll come back this afternoon when the Taoist elder brother collects his soul. The food is ready now, and you have guests at home, so it's not good for me to go. Thank you, auntie, for your kindness. I'll go back right away." "The father said to Xiaosi again that his cousin remembers to call him when he does the method to collect the soul, and then he turned and left.Huzi also said good-bye, auntie, and walked to Shangcun with his father on his shoulders. After leaving, he turned his head and winked at Xiaosi, indicating that he must call him in the afternoon.

After entering the volts, the weather gradually warmed up, and the big tree next to the village was as thick as five people hugging each other, with luxuriant branches and leaves covering the sky and the sun.Walking under the shade of the trees, even the hotness is not so obvious, and the sound of cicadas is like a never-ending sonata, which makes people feel a little upset.The life in the countryside is always so comfortable and dull, and today I finally saw something new, and both father and Huzi were a little excited.

"Brother Ping, maybe the Taoist priest has magic powers. Do you really want to worship him as a teacher? If he accepts you as an apprentice, will you follow him to the Taoist temple and never come back? Then I Couldn't it be that I won't see you for a long time?" Er Huzi pursed his lips, his tone full of reluctance, as if his father was about to pack up and leave immediately, this child always thinks too much.

"Are you so sure that he will really accept me as an apprentice? Didn't people say that this is all about root and fate? Besides, I can learn Taoism, but I will not leave Wusi Village. I am I want to learn something simple and effective from him, so that I can resist when I encounter things like yesterday. He will not teach me too many things. After all, I don’t want to be a Taoist priest wholeheartedly. Do you think I Are you really willing to part with my family and you?" The father really couldn't stand Hu Zi's dejected expression, and those who saw him wanted to twitch.Why does this child think so far-reachingly? It's really worrying.

In this way, the two returned to their respective homes while talking and looking forward to it. As soon as the father entered the door, he yelled: "Xiaosi'er and his Taoist cousin are going to collect the ghosts in the pond in the afternoon. Who of you wants to go see it with me?" !” The father looked at the two aunts who were stealing food with their hands on the table and the uncle sitting beside him, and mischievously shouted: “Mom, come out quickly, your girl is stealing food. Haha, come and teach me a lesson.” them."

Before my father could finish speaking, my sister-in-law punched him hard on the waist a few times, and the little fist probably didn't have much strength, "To tell you to talk too much, to tell you to talk too much, I just ate a piece of lotus root. This is not called stealing. It's just that the chopsticks haven't been taken out, so I can't eat two yuan."

"Haha, hit me if I find out." My aunt chased and beat my father, who ran around the main room.

"Why are you running? There's ash everywhere. I need to eat!" the uncle said solemnly, his appearance was a replica of his grandfather.The aunt was also talking and laughing at the side. There are many children in the family, so it is lively.

"Are you back? How do you look?" Grandma asked while walking with a bowl of egg custard. The porcelain bowl must have been a little hot, and she was blowing and shaking her hands, and there was still a sound of tsk tsk in her mouth. .

"It's nothing, Xiaosi'er's cousin is a Taoist priest of the Maoshan School, named Qingfeng. When I went to see him, he was talking about the red fish and water ghost with Uncle Wang in Xiacun. It was too far away and I didn't hear clearly. When I went It's almost finished, I didn't say a few words, Xiaosi's mother is going home to cook, I just took a look and came back, saying that I will do a method to collect the soul in the afternoon, and Xiaosi will call me when the time comes. Mom, why don't you tell me To open your eyes?"

"I'm not going. There's still something to do in the field. Come back and let me know when you go to see it." Grandma set up the dishes, went to the kitchen to get a spoon, and said, "I don't know if the trick is true or not! I don't like You have nothing to do all day."

Grandpa went to help someone else's house today. An old man in a neighboring village died. He went to help carry the coffin in the morning, and stayed there for dinner at noon. There were only four children and grandma left at home.There were eggs today, so I had a good meal.Soon after eating, my father sat at the door and waited. Grandma didn't want him to take a nap, for fear of missing the Taoist priest's collection of souls.

When it's hot, people tend to get sleepy. During the half-dream and half-awake period, my father felt that he had entered a pure white world, surrounded by white clouds.The body is also shaking like duckweed in the water.After walking a few steps forward, I was surprised to find that there was a person standing in front of me. I couldn't see the face of that person clearly, but I thought it should be a young man.An inexplicable voice began to come from my ear, and I don’t know what that person was talking about. After listening carefully, it should be chanting a mantra. The person is clearly in front of me, but it seems to be thousands of miles away, and the voice fluctuates. Only when you concentrate can you vaguely hear "Humanity is slim, immortality is vast. High and clear, spiritual and beautiful, sad songs and space, I hope the heavens will come true, and I don't want the human world to be poor..."

Suddenly the man disappeared in the blink of an eye, and there was nothing in front of him, only the aftertaste of his voice was still echoing in his ears, the surrounding white clouds became thinner and thinner, the light in front of him became more and more intense, and a golden light flashed, stabbing his father from Waking up from a dream.Rubbing my sleepy eyes, I realized that it was my aunt who took a mirror to reflect the sunlight onto her face, and she smiled while covering her mouth when she woke up. Which girl is so naughty, worse than when she was a child .

But the man in the dream caused my father to doubt, could the mantra be from Taoism?I heard some kind of Taoism inside, but I woke up and the others forgot and only remembered mentioning the word Tao. Could it be that I really have a predestined relationship with Taoism?

An inexplicable dream made my father puzzled. They all said that the dream was unconscious, but there was a voice in the dark center that kept telling himself: Yes, you are destined to be with the Tao.I have never had such a strange dream before, and the spell seems to be still narrating in my ears.Weird, daydreaming?Forget it, don't worry about it, look at the sun, it's probably three o'clock in the afternoon.Father got up quickly, began to wash his face with cold water, and waited for Xiao Si to come over to call him. He didn't even bother about waking him up. It was more important to watch the Taoist priest recover his soul.

I don't know if it's because the ghost was still a little scared yesterday, but my father is more sensitive to the surrounding environment now, and he can immediately find out if there is something strange.For example, now, he noticed that there seemed to be a person standing behind him. That person had an indescribable sense of familiarity, as if there was a kind of love bound between the two, from the previous life to the present.

who is it?The surrounding air seemed to fluctuate slightly, and my sister-in-law's laughter was still echoing in the house, but my intuition clearly told my father that there was something there, maybe a soul.There was a breeze blowing past the ear, like a greeting from the other party indicating that he was coming, it didn't carry any dangerous aura, but it made people's scalp tense.

Father's body was stiff, and his expression showed a hint of panic. He was not only frightened by his own keen senses, but also frightened by the strange things that could be perceived without a trace of existence.Who is it?The hair next to the ear trembled slightly with the other person's breathing, which was obviously not an exaggeration, because the wind chime on the top of the door didn't even make a sound.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?" My sister-in-law was very surprised seeing her father standing still like a puppet. Is this practicing standing posture?But why is the expression so serious?

"It's okay, my back is itchy, please scratch it for me." I thought it would be good for my sister to stand behind and push the man away, but suddenly a chuckle "hehe..." came from my ears, Even that strange feeling moved in front of him, as if a person was looking at him just a few centimeters away from the tip of his nose.The air fluctuated, as if someone walked from behind to the front in an instant, and every step he took could be clearly felt.

Is it an illusion or?Sweat was already slowly rolling along the spine on the father's back, flowing from the neck to the waist, and his throat couldn't help but tighten.A feeling of being watched came from in front of me, but the transparent air reflected the scenery behind. The great discrepancy between the feeling and the reality made my father almost fall into a state of insanity. What's wrong with me?
