When I first met my master Ye Sanqi, he didn’t even have a name.
At that time, I was just a young member of the Kongmen who had not yet become a disciple. I followed Gao Maishun, and I was the seventh member of Gao Mai's group, so they called me Xiao Qi. Later, because the Buddha above me was called Qi Ye. , they didn’t even let me call Xiaoqi anymore, so I could only call out secretly when no one was around.
You probably won't understand what I'm saying. If I say that empty men are thieves, you will understand.
Gao Mai and Buddha are both slang words. Gao Mai is the leader of this small group, and only Gao Mai can lead disciples. Buddha is the leader of thieves in an area. As for why it is called that, I will tell you later.
Gao Buyi bought me from Paihuazi because my index and middle fingers are almost as long on one side. Such people are born to enter the Buddhist world. They can "poke through the skylight" after a few years of practice. Only Gao Buyi is willing to do so. Spend big bucks on people.
However, Buddhists have their own rules. If a person who worships Gaobai is still unable to become a monk at the age of ten, he will have to break his legs and sell them to beggars, and go out begging for food on the street.
The day I was ten years old, Gao bought me a hard-boiled egg and asked his apprentice Dagou to take me to the street and open the door.
I also knew that if I couldn't open the door today, I would be worse than dead when I went back, and I would be sweating all the way.
However, the rules of Buddhism mean that not everyone’s money can be stolen. If I break the rules, I don’t have to go back, the big dog can deal with me.
I walked around the streets for most of the day, but there wasn't even a single person who could do anything to me. Not to mention me, even the big dog is sweating.
The big dog told me: You have hit the door dead. This thing happened once many years ago, and the person didn't open the door for a whole day. When I got back, my eyes were gouged out.
Master said: If you hit the door to death, it's not because you are unlucky, it's because the ancestor refused to accept you and deliberately refused to let you in. If such people are not abolished, they will become Kongmen's enemies in the future.
I was also frightened at the time and kept asking what to do with the big dog?
The big dog gritted his teeth and said, "It's better to open the door if you can't find a suitable person than to go back and be beaten to death."
When the big dog said this, I could only bite the bullet and listen.
When it was almost dark between the two of us, the big dog finally took aim at a person eating wontons at a street stall: "Did you see that person? It's him."
I saw that the man looked polite and polite, and he looked like a cultured and distinguished person. I guess he wouldn't beat me to death if he caught me, so I bit the bullet and stuck to him.
When I got to him, before I could make a move, he grabbed my wrist.
Despite his fair appearance, that man's hand was like an iron hoop. He grabbed my wrist and wouldn't let go. I shook him three times in a row without shaking him off.
Even if I am trapped, no matter what that person does to me, I will die if I go back.
My face turned pale with fright, and I subconsciously glanced at the big dog, wanting to ask for help, but the big dog had already disappeared.
I could only close my eyes and accept my fate.
Unexpectedly, the man laughed and said, "She knows the rules quite well."
"Shopkeeper, serve all-meat wontons so he's full."
As soon as I heard this, I knew I was finished. I might have fallen into someone's hands! After this meal, there is no telling what will happen.
The rule in Kongmener is that if you miss something along the way, you can run away. If you can't run away, you have to let the person deal with it. Even if you are beaten to death, you can't fight back.
I've seen people beaten to death on the spot before.
This man made me eat so much that he was afraid he would kill me.
I thought to myself that I would have to live a full life, so I gritted my teeth and sat on the table, trying my best to shovel the wontons into my mouth.
I ate five bowls of all-meat wontons in one sitting, and I didn’t stop until I couldn’t eat any more.
That person didn't speak to me from beginning to end. He just looked at me eating with a smile. After calculating the money for the meal, he said: "Follow me. Help me do something, and forget about today's affairs." "
After the man finished speaking, regardless of my reaction, he picked up a black umbrella leaning on the edge of the table and turned around to leave.
Logically speaking, that person didn't care about me, so I should just run away, but I don't know what happened, but somehow I followed that person.
At first I thought that man was also a member of Kongmener. He arrested me so that I could help him get through the wall and open the door. But I didn’t expect that he was walking towards Tennoji Temple on the outskirts of the city.
That place is famous for being a dangerous place! Even beggars dare not sleep in Tennoji Temple. It is said that even if you die inside Tennoji Temple, no one will dare to collect the body.
I was curious before and went to Tennoji Temple once with people from Kongmenerli, but I came back as soon as I walked to the door.
That place makes people feel chilly in the summer, especially the door. As soon as I saw it, I felt my heart pounding and my scalp numb. I always felt like someone was waiting for us to enter at the door.
At the time, I thought I was scared because I was timid. Later, my brothers and sisters who went together said so, and I realized that Tiannoji Temple was not a good place to go.
If that person wants to enter Tennoji Temple, isn't that asking for death?
I hesitated for a long time before shouting from behind: "Don't go to Tennoji Temple, it's a dangerous place."
But the man seemed not to have heard anything, and walked in the direction of Tennoji without saying a word. He almost reached the entrance of Tennoji before he stopped, opened the black umbrella in his hand, lit another yellow incense, and put the two things together. They were all stuffed into my hands: "You just stand here and wait for me. When the incense is gone, you can leave whether I come out or not."
After the man finished speaking, he knocked on the door of Tennoji Temple without looking back. Just as I was about to remind him, "Don't go in," I suddenly got a jolt - there is no door at Tennoji Temple! Why is there an extra door leaf coming out in the middle of the night?
Someone at the door asked: "Who is outside?"
The man responded in a deep voice: "Qi Sect disciples are here, please gods to avoid them!"
As soon as his voice fell, the red paint of Tennoji suddenly fell to the ground, and the man walked into Tennoji through the red door.
As soon as the man left, the outside of Tennoji Temple became quiet. I felt chills all over my body, my scalp became tight, and the incense sticks in my hand flashed brightly and darkly. The umbrella I was holding seemed to be getting heavier and heavier. It felt like someone was adding something to my umbrella, and it became heavier and heavier every moment.
I wanted to throw away my umbrella and yellow incense several times and leave this hellish place, but I forced myself to endure it.
The longer I stood still, the more scared I felt, especially when the umbrella above my head seemed to be pressing down, and the handle was sliding down my hand.
Just when I was about to look up at the umbrella, I heard someone calling me from behind: "Xiaoqi, Xiaoqi..."
