The fourth uncle's house is full of life. There are a lot of things placed everywhere in the house, including some children's toys. In the shoe cabinet at the door, there are also some young women's high heels.
The fourth uncle looked at me with a smile at this time: "When I was in the country, this house was given to my son and daughter-in-law to live together. The two of them lived at home. I, the old man, didn't disturb them, and I didn't bother them when I came here. few."
After sitting down in the living room, Liu Ruxiang told the story exactly what happened last night under the urging of the Fourth Master.
The fourth uncle's expression couldn't help but become solemn.
"This world is too chaotic," the fourth uncle grabbed my hand, "How about you all come over and stay with me."
"I have a lot of empty houses. You just came here to pick up your luggage."
Liu Ruxiang still declined the fourth uncle's kindness.
"I can just go back and do the rituals myself." Liu Ruxiang smiled.
At noon, I rested for a while at the fourth uncle's house, had a light meal, and immediately rushed towards the big hotel I mentioned before.
Wei Zhenna arrived first, with a servant taking care of him, leaning on a chair and resting.
Wei Zhenna smiled reluctantly, looked at us, and then cupped his hands: "I'm sorry, everyone, I still had some health problems last night, and I felt a little uncomfortable in my waist."
"My old bones really won't last long." Wei Zhenna began to smile bitterly.
Liu Ruxiang did not answer the call. Instead, she took the contact book next to her and checked the list of attendees one by one.
There are more than sixty people in total, including half of the leading figures in the metaphysics community in Guizhou Province. Each one of them is a master. Most of them live in the provincial capital, and a small number of them come from other cities.
Liu Ruxiang glanced at the list and told me about these people.
The first person on the list, Lin Zhenshan, does the same job as us, is also a master, and belongs to the Western School. Liu Ruxiang has a small friendship with him. He is a middle-aged uncle in his forties.
The second person, Song Zijun, is a geography teacher, good at looking after homes, and is said to be good at making money.
The third person, Deng Jiuyan, specializes in Zhu Youshu, which is relatively rare in Guangxi Province. He is considered a representative in this field. He is an old man in his sixties and a kind-hearted person.
Liu Ruxiang just introduced a lot to me, and Wei Zhenna who was standing by me also listened with interest, and from time to time he expressed his affirmation of Liu Ruxiang's remarks and evaluations, which was very interesting.
I don't know most of the people here, and occasionally there are a few whom I heard from Master before.
Today's meeting, if nothing else, is probably a rare gathering of industry insiders in this province, and the attendees are all "top-notch" people.
In the next ten minutes, people came one after another.
The fourth uncle stood at the door, and Wei Zhenna stood on the other side. They welcomed and complimented the visitor, and then began to arrange seats inside.
Liu Ruxiang stood in the middle of the venue and guided everyone to sit in the front.
There were a few people who didn't know Wei Zhenna, but there was the Fourth Master nearby, so everyone could greet him.
At about half past one, fifty-seven people came one after another, and they were all here.
The fourth uncle first went to the podium to warm up the audience, and then handed the microphone to Liu Ruxiang and asked her to stand on the stage and start speaking.
The topics we want to talk about today were all discussed yesterday. First, Liu Ruxiang began to introduce the Huang Weizhong incident that he encountered before, starting from Huang Weizhong and talking about his exposure to the Nanyang head-lowering technique.
Before I had even said a few words in class, the door was pushed open. It turned out that someone was late.
There were three people in total, one was a calligrapher, another was a practitioner of external alchemy skills, and one was a Taoist orthodox Crane Temple practitioner.
The other two people clasped their fists and apologized to everyone. One said it was because of the traffic jam on the road, and the other said that there was an emergency at home and the delay was delayed.
Only the man watching the white crane remained silent, and suddenly stopped when he reached the edge of his seat.
No one understood what the White Crane Temple man meant if he didn't do it. Liu Ruxiang smiled and asked, "Taoist Wang, please sit down quickly and let's continue talking about the topic we just talked about."
Who would have thought that Taoist Wang from Baihe Temple would have a cold face and said coldly: "Should I sit at the back? Is there no room in front?"
As soon as he said this, everyone was stunned.
I didn't understand it at the time, but later Liu Ruxiang said that I understood a little bit.
First of all, Baiheguan is one of the few authentic Buddhist traditions in Guangxi Province. It is a lineage of Buddhist traditions that came from Maoshan hundreds of years ago.
The representative of the White Crane Temple who came here today is called Wang Zhenhai. He is a true disciple of the White Crane Temple, the kind of disciple who has a degree of ultimatum. Moreover, his master is also the president of the first-generation Taoist Association in Guangxi Province, and his reputation is extremely high.
According to normal theory, they are true disciples of Taoism. If they come to contemplate and reminisce, they have to arrange special seats.
I didn't understand it at the time, so I just thought, wouldn't it be okay to just sit there for a while?
Liu Ruxiang looked helpless at this time and told me: "In society, some people just recognize this kind of etiquette."
"Anyone who has a position must come up and down in order. In this seat, there are rules for who is in front and who is behind, who is left and who is right. Especially some leaders in high positions are particularly concerned about this. If you make a mistake, you will be considered disrespectful by others."
Speaking of the scene at that time, except for Liu Ruxiang, whose face was not good-looking, the people in the front row of the venue were all a little cold-faced.
After all, it’s not because of great ability or who has a high status and who has a low status. It’s because today’s situation is complicated and there are all kinds of people. Basically, representatives from each family have been sent. If the people in Baiheguan want to If you grab a seat from the front, does it mean that the person who is kicked out will be lower than Baiheguan? That is serious, and he will probably have his head broken after the meeting.
Liu Ruxiang's face stiffened: "Friend Wang, we are here to discuss urgent matters today. It is not about seniority, and there is no need for everyone to come here. They are all on a first-come, first-served basis, so let's sit down and talk first."
Unexpectedly, the man surnamed Wang was disobedient, but sneered: "My master is the president of the Guangxi Taoist Association, and I am also the true successor of Baiheguan Taoism. Come to the meeting today, and you won't even give up a seat?"
Liu Ruxiang's face froze, and she looked towards me with a smile: "Wen Shan, go help Uncle Wang and move the chair to the front."
After I heard this, I walked to the back. Like a child, I moved a chair from the back to the first row in front. It just happened to be that there was a seat for me to sit on.
This king's face was gloomy. He originally wanted to speak, but he was probably persuaded by his friend next to him, so he stopped being aggressive.
Anyway, I saw how powerful this Taoist disciple is today. I really want to go up and give this guy a slap. He is really ignorant. Everyone is here first. It is reasonable to sit in the front. Why should you run to the first place? Go in line?
Of course, I also vaguely felt that the people in Baiheguan were not simple people, and they were probably very powerful.
Later, I felt more and more that my guess was correct.
After Liu Ruxiang finished talking about Huang Weizhong, he went on to talk about the hanging coffin incident in the Chen family's cave in Shuanghu Town. We encountered signs in the cave that seemed to be from Nanyang.
In case there was no evidence, Liu Ruxiang took out the strange pattern he had copied on the man in black robe.
"Look, everyone, this is what the corpse driver has."
As soon as Liu Ruxiang took out this thing, everyone was immediately ordered to be silent.
Putting this kind of thing in front of you, the impact is naturally indescribable.
Among so many people, there are also knowledgeable people. Some people can understand this Oriental language at a glance and help everyone translate the above meaning.
For a moment, many people began to curse in a low voice.
After all, the Oriental Kingdom was the initiator of the suffering that the Central Plains suffered a hundred years ago. This blood feud has not yet been avenged, but suddenly it was learned that it was about to come back again.
Many people were so angry that they blew their beards and stared.
"If I catch this stupid Japanese guy, I promise to punch him back to my grandma's house!"
"Yes, the old Taoist still didn't believe it yesterday, thinking how many years have passed. Sure enough, if the people of the East are determined to destroy me, the people of this country must perish."
Many comrades cursed angrily, wishing they could eat those Japanese people alive.
Liu Ruxiang gently pressed her hand down to signal everyone to be quiet.
"I have finished my words for the time being. Next, Mr. Wei Zhenna will talk about what seven stars surround the moon. Some of you may not know that Mr. Wei Zhenna is the leader in the study of astronomy and luck in our entire Guangxi Province. He has countless books at home, so he can be said to be a powerful person!"
Many people agreed. At this time, Wei Zhenna's servant pushed Wei Zhenna's wheelchair to the stage.
Wei Zhenna cleared his throat, apologized first, and then started talking about the seven stars surrounding the moon.
Although I said it on the phone yesterday, some Taoist friends didn't hear it. Now I need to say it again and let everyone understand it, so that it can be discussed later.
He talked for more than ten minutes and finished the story about the seven stars surrounding the moon in great detail.
Everyone is a little panicked. After all, every time there are seven stars surrounding the moon in history, the Central Plains dynasty is about to be overthrown.
It is said that the demise of the Song Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty was due to the phenomenon of seven stars surrounding the moon.
Many people expressed their opinions and took turns talking in a circle. Liu Ruxiang made a suggestion at this time: "My idea is that if you want to continue to explore and make a contribution to our province, we can go there again." Let’s go to the hanging coffin cave. After all, it’s only been four days since the incident. It’s very likely that the Oriental people haven’t evacuated yet. We should be able to find a lot of information now.”
Everyone agreed, and there was immediate support.
Four or five people raised their hands and agreed, and even the king of Baihe Temple was willing to go.
When I saw this scene, I felt relieved for the time being.
