In the next few days, this strange and cursed town ushered in a rare period of peace.
There were no emergencies, no dirty things, and no dead people.
It was also during this period that the shop that Granny Wen Mi left for Zhao Youliang was basically renovated.
Because Xiao Li, an expert, helped, the decoration cost was less than half of the budget.
In addition, Zhao Youliang was not willing to spend money to see the "skin disease" on the back of his hand, let alone burn it off with laser.
Otherwise, it would really become a joke on the Internet:
After hundreds of years of practice, my second grandfather finally reached the "golden elixir stage". As a result, he was diagnosed by the doctor as having gallbladder stones and underwent surgery to remove them...
At noon that day, Zhao Youliang and the big yellow dog, who had nothing to do, were lying side by side on the wicker chairs in front of the shop, drying eggs side by side.
Under the warm sunshine, one person and one dog fell asleep in a short time.
At this moment, a "shadow" shrouded the heads of the man and the dog, affecting their "great cause" of sharing eggs.
In desperation, Zhao Youliang could only open his eyes impatiently.
"If a dead person in the family buys a paper figurine, you can choose it yourself through the door."
"Don't go in there, the dog will scratch you if you go in... Oh, damn, ghost!"
Amidst the screams, Zhao Youliang jumped up from the wicker chair and hugged the big yellow dog next to him with a look of horror on his face.
"I-I said, Master, we are not the ones who killed you, so why are you looking for me?"
"In addition, I have done everything I promised you, and reported it to the police..."
No wonder Zhao Youliang behaved like this, because the person who came was none other than a Maotai veteran.
Anyone who finds that a dead person suddenly appears in front of him will have this reaction.
The old Taoist looked at the frightened Zhao Youliang with helplessness on his face.
"Fu Sheng Boundless Heavenly Lord, my little friend is Zhao Youliang, right?"
"My little friend has misunderstood. Pindao is not my brother who rode a crane to the west. I am his twin brother."
"Pindao Dharma name...forget it, just don't mention it."
"I just came here today to thank my little friend for reporting my brother's funeral. It's just a small talk to show my deep concern."
After the old Taoist priest finished speaking, he took out a simple mahogany box from his arms and handed it to Zhao Youliang, and then walked out of the town with his sleeves fluttering.
When traveling, it is like flying with the wind, without touching the ground, and has an air of immortality.
However, this immortal demeanor was completely shattered after Zhao Youliang asked the following sentence.
"Master Dao, you came all the way, don't leave in a hurry!"
"Besides, how can I call you if something happens in the future? Can we leave a phone number? What's your name?!"
The reason why he yelled and asked this was because Zhao Youliang still didn't give up. He still wanted to find a real master to guide him in practice and get rid of the entanglement of the paper shop.
Although in his mind, his first choice was the mysterious young general, it was still unclear.
To be on the safe side, you have to prepare a second plan.
However, Zhao Youliang's words seemed to hit the old Taoist's life gate, causing him to stumble and almost fall.
Especially the phrase "What's your name?"
After a brief hesitation, the old Taoist priest came back reluctantly.
After holding it in for a long time, he whispered in Zhao Youliang's ear: "Fu Sheng Boundless Heavenly Lord."
"My little friend has been kind enough to send a message to my elder brother. I have to answer any questions I have."
"Pindao Dharma name Mao Keng..."
"What, what the hell?" Zhao Youliang was completely shocked when he heard this, and couldn't believe his ears.
I thought to myself: Mao pit? Are you sure this number is serious?
You didn't mean to make me laugh, did you? !
Moutai is weird enough, but now there’s an even weirder one!
Your master is really a genius at naming...
Seeing Zhao Youliang's surprised face from ear to ear, the old man had obviously guessed what he was thinking.
After all, this kind of situation has not happened once or twice.
In order to explain clearly, Lao Dao quickly took out a pen and paper and wrote down his road number and mobile phone number.
"The name of the poor Taoist law is Mao Keng. It is a sonorous and powerful Keng, not the word in my mind."
"Blessings, blessings will be born to the Infinite Heavenly Lord!"
Seeing that the old Taoist was getting anxious, and since the explanation was clear enough, Zhao Youliang hurriedly acted like he had suddenly realized something.
And he tried his best to hold back his smile and nodded repeatedly.
Because he knew that if he laughed, he would probably get beaten.
Even if you are sophisticated and don't beat yourself up at the time, sooner or later you will have to settle the score later.
Seeing how Zhao Youliang was trying his best to endure, Master Mao Keng had a look of helplessness on his face.
Then he waved his sleeves and turned around to leave, but this time he no longer had the calm demeanor he had before.
"My little friend, you can laugh if you want to. Holding it in for too long can easily lead to bad Qi and affect your practice."
"Actually...actually Pindao has long been used to it..."
Looking at Lao Dao's desolate back, Zhao Youliang couldn't help laughing even though he was very sympathetic.
At the same time, he thought to himself: If he could really become a disciple of this old Taoist, he must not let his master give him a Taoist title!
Otherwise, according to Master's virtue, he might come up with some name that would make people hate him...
While Zhao Youliang was worrying unfoundedly, he opened the mahogany box given to him by Mao Keng Lao Dao. Inside was a token made of lightning strike wood (Note 1).
On the back is a portrait of Lord Sanmao (Note 2), and on the front are the two seal characters "En" and "Ke".
Hidden meaning in the book: This token is specially given by the Maoshan Sect to people who have helped their disciples.
Those who hold the token can get help from the Maoshan Sect.
Of course, you can't make too many demands.
Note 1. Lightning struck wood: As the name suggests, it is a tree struck by lightning.
Jujube, peach, willow, poplar, locust, persimmon, etc. can be called lightning-struck wood after being struck by lightning.
However, there is another important condition for becoming a lightning-strike wood, that is, it must still survive after being struck by lightning, otherwise it cannot be called a lightning-strike wood.
In addition, if the lightning is artificially triggered, it does not count as lightning striking the tree.
There are very few trees struck by lightning in nature, and lightning-struck peach trees and lightning-struck jujube trees are even rarer.
They are rare materials used by Taoist masters to make magical instruments.
Note 2: San Mao Zhenjun: also known as "San Mao Jun", the founder of the Maoshan sect of Taoism.
San Mao Zhenjun was originally three brothers born in Nanguan, Xianyang.
Damaojun Mao Ying, also known as Uncle Shen, abandoned his family when he was eighteen years old and went to Mount Hengshan in Beiyue to read Laozi and the Book of Changes. He practiced internal medicine for six years and then met the Queen Mother of the West. The Sutra, I learned it and returned home at the age of forty-nine.
Zhongmao Lord Mao Gu, whose courtesy name was Ji Wei, was promoted as filial and honest during the reign of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, and he moved to Wuwei Prefecture.
San Maojun Mao Zhong, whose courtesy name was Sihe, moved to Luoyang during the reign of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, and later became the fifth chief minister and the prefect of Xihe.
After Mao Ying ascended to the throne, both brothers abandoned their official positions and returned home, seeking their elder brother in Dongshan.
Mao Ying taught him the method of prolonging life and immortality.
The two brothers practiced Taoism for three years. After admiring the Nine Transformations of Returning Alchemy, they also ascended to immortality.
