The old Taoist priest's expression changed slightly, then he looked at me and asked, "So, Li Duanshou is your master?"
"No, he is my grandfather."
I said slightly embarrassed.
"I see, I forgot that your Xuanmen's five branches don't pass on foreign surnames."
The old Taoist priest said, patting his head, "I've been in the mountains for a long time, and my brain is a bit unclear."
I smiled awkwardly, not knowing what to say.
This old Taoist priest really gave people the impression that his thinking was not very clear.
"I had some friendship with Li Duanshou back then."
The old Taoist priest said to himself, and after speaking he looked at me again, "If you encounter any trouble in the future, you can come to Yashan Wuwei Temple to find me."
After saying that, he turned around and left immediately, leaving both Ma Youyi and I confused.
But after walking a few steps, the old Taoist priest turned back, then looked at Ma Boyi and asked, "You just said you met two corpse chasers? Where were they? Those corpses just now should have been controlled by them."
"In the village, there is someone who was trapped by my master's magic array."
Ma Yi said quickly.
"I'll go meet them. You should go back quickly and stop playing here."
The old Taoist priest said and walked directly into the village.
"Does this senior have some symptoms of Alzheimer's disease?"
I glanced at Ma Yi and asked with a frown.
"It's not Alzheimer's disease. This is what Taoist Xuanyuan is like. He wholeheartedly seeks Taoism and has been practicing alone at Wuwei Temple on Yashan Mountain. I heard my grandfather say that he almost became a Taoist, so his consciousness of human nature is relatively blurred and even more... Close to the Tao.”
Ma Boyi looked at the retreating figure of Taoist Master Xuanyuan and said.
"What is Hedao?"
This is the first time I heard this word, so I don’t understand it a bit.
"Taoism emphasizes tranquility and inaction, and pursues the Tao wholeheartedly. The so-called harmony with Tao seems to be to abandon human nature, step into the realm of Tao, and then move toward divinity. I don't know whether this is a realm or something."
Ma Yi said and touched his forehead.
Of course I was confused by what I heard, but from the point of view of abandoning human nature, it doesn’t seem like a good thing?
If a person abandons his humanity and moves towards the divine side, wouldn't that be equivalent to losing his original self? Were people still human at that time?
I shook my head and put this question behind me for the time being. It was too complicated.
Ma Youyi and I stood at the entrance of the village and waited for a while. Taoist Master Xuanyuan came out soon.
Then the old Taoist priest didn't even look at us and just left.
Ma Yi quickly caught up and asked, but then the old Taoist priest couldn't recognize him again.
I was speechless for a moment. Why does this feel more like amnesia? It shouldn’t be done through spiritual practice, right?
Ma Youyi repeated his previous self-introduction, and the old Taoist priest finally remembered.
"Those two guys ran away. Go back quickly and stop playing here."
Taoist Master Xuanyuan waved his hand as he spoke, then turned around and left again.
But after walking a few steps, he came back, then looked at me and said, "By the way, you are Li Duanshou's apprentice, right? I have some friendship with him. If you encounter any trouble in the future, you can go to Yashan Wuweiguan came to me."
After that he left again.
This time I really left and never came back.
Ma Youyi and I looked at each other and didn't know what to say for a moment. Is this really abandoning human nature? I feel like I'm not on the same channel as normal people at all.
When Ma Youyi and I came to the road outside, the big Mercedes-Benz was still parked on the roadside, but Jiang Yang was already asleep in the driver's seat.
I looked at the time and it was already late at night.
After waking up Jiang Yang, we rushed back to the county seat.
The car was driving very fast, and Jiang Yang would nap from time to time, which made me nervous all the way, for fear that he would drive the car into a ditch if he got confused.
He had faced so many dangers before and had not died. If he died in a car accident in the end, it would be such an injustice.
Fortunately, nothing happened along the way, and we finally got home safely.
After returning to Jiang's house, I quickly checked the injuries on my body. The wounds bitten by the zombies were not serious. They were all skin wounds. However, the places on my arms bitten by the zombies had begun to It was fester, and the corpse poison was obviously showing signs of spreading.
Naturally I didn't dare to delay this matter, so I asked Jiang Yang to find some glutinous rice for me, then filled the bathtub with water, sprinkled the glutinous rice in it, and got in to soak for more than an hour.
Fortunately, the Jiang family had some glutinous rice in the kitchen. Otherwise, they wouldn't know where to buy glutinous rice in the middle of the night.
It seems that I will have to keep some in the future. I am always walking in this industry, and I will inevitably encounter such tricky things. It is probably not uncommon to be bitten.
I looked at the time and it was almost dawn.
After soaking in glutinous rice water, a lot of the corpse poison on his body had dissipated.
I didn't close my eyes all night, and my upper and lower eyelids were already fighting now, and I almost fell on the bed and fell asleep.
When I woke up again, it was already afternoon. After experiencing such a strenuous exercise yesterday, today I felt so hungry and sore all over my body, and I didn't have any strength left in my body.
I got up and took a shower. When I went downstairs, I found that almost everyone in the Jiang family was present, and the old man of the Jiang family also looked high-spirited.
It seemed that they already knew that I had solved the problem. The whole family's faces were relieved, and they all looked very happy.
"I knew you definitely had this ability. I was right about you."
The old man from the Jiang family came up and patted my shoulder, and said slightly excitedly.
"Forget the polite words, you should be more practical."
I curled my lips and said.
Before the coffin was opened, he said he was willing to pay me a reward of one million. Now that the matter is settled, should I pay the reward?
One million, this is simply an astronomical figure to me. Just thinking about it makes me unable to calm down.
"Of course, the one million promised to you will not be less. In addition, I have a happy event to tell you."
The old man of the Jiang family said, taking a bank card from the table and handing it over.
"What happy event?"
I took the bank card and asked absently.
Because to me, nothing is more attractive than this million.
"I discussed it with my family and decided to marry Tingting to you, and her dowry is definitely worth much more than the card you have."
The old man of the Jiang family said and waved, and Jiang Yuting immediately walked over with a blushing face.
