My mother said this, finally dispelling the psychological shadow that I had for many years.
So, we spent two pleasant and short days in Longtan.
Soon it was time to say goodbye again.
According to Bada Shanren, it was because grandpa changed his destiny against heaven and was guilty of serious sins. Therefore, in this life, I am here to repay my debts. I must travel outside like the living Buddha Jigong, slay demons, rob the rich and give to the poor.
I stopped by a Taoist temple in the provincial capital to find a Taoist priest named Chen Qingyun. Only he could relieve me of my karma and guide me to achieve enlightenment. Otherwise, my destiny will be unstable and I will never live to be eighteen!
"Long'er, when you go out this time, in addition to apprenticeships, there is also an extremely important thing that you need to inquire about!"
"Mom! What's going on?" I asked.
"Six years ago, your grandfather's body disappeared. Even your eldest uncle and his second uncle don't know where it went. Until now, no one knows where his grave is. But there is a bad rumor recently. …”
"What rumors?"
"It is said that someone found your grandfather's grave and captured your grandfather's soul!"
"Is there such a thing?"
The mother said sadly: "I hope it's just a rumor. Because your grandfather did something that went against the will of heaven, it was not convenient for my father and mother to take action. What's more, your grandfather died because of you. This matter requires you to go personally. manage!"
"Okay! Don't worry, Mom, I will definitely find Grandpa's whereabouts!"
"Long'er, be careful on the road!"
In this way, accompanied by the blind master, I left Longtan.
When we arrived at a nearby town, we discovered that we only had a few copper plates!
"Master! That Young Master Long didn't give you any money in modern society?" I asked with a frown.
The blind master said angrily: "You ask me who should I ask? Even though Young Master Long is very capable, he is actually stupider than me! The old man just hasn't come out for hundreds of years. That Young Master Long is said to be trapped in Longtan for thousands of years." year!”
"How many...thousands of years?"
"That's right! The dragon clan and humans are two different worlds. There is no need for him to travel to the human world, right?"
"That's true!"
I was completely speechless.
Fortunately, Sister Wan'er has secretly read many foreign novels to me over the years, and I have learned a lot of social knowledge from them.
No, the knowledge in the novel will be used immediately!
"How about, Master, let's go tell people's fortunes? It is said that fortune telling is very popular now and you can make money!"
"You kid, why do you feel like you know more than the old man?"
"Hey! I knew I was going to travel, so I did my homework two years in advance!"
"Oh! Did you read those unhealthy books without telling me?"
"No! It's just some street-stall novels!"
So under my leadership, we first used a few copper plates to exchange some pens, inks, paper and inkstones with the bookstore owner at the entrance of a primary school, and then wrote two big "fortune-telling" words and hung them on bamboo poles, and then went to the vegetable market. Squatting at the door.
"Fortune telling! Fortune telling! No money required if the fortune is told!"
I shouted loudly.
When others see it, the blind master looks like an immortal. Not to mention his immortality, he is really blind.
At this moment, he sat down on the ground. His demeanor, without any packaging, made him look like a fortune teller!
As a result, it quickly attracted many people.
The first customer was a middle-aged man who coughed non-stop as soon as he arrived.
"Blind man, let me ask you, I have been coughing non-stop for several months, why is it still not good? I didn't find anything wrong even when I went to the hospital!"
The blind master took his hand, checked his pulse, and touched his head with his hand.
What the blind master does is called bone-touching!
"Oops! Young man, your illness is a combination of deficiency and excess! I say you are actually ill because you have a problem with your lungs and need some Chinese medicine. I will give you a prescription that will be effective in a few days."
The blind master took a writing brush and started writing. When people around looked at it, they all praised: "Oh! What a good calligraphy!"
“This master is very handsome, I don’t know where he came from!”
"Five liang of Bletilla striata, three liang of Luo Han Guo, and two liang of Polygonatum odoratum, boil in a casserole, take half a bowl each in the morning, noon and evening, one course of treatment a week. As for deficiency diseases! You overindulged, leading to kidney deficiency and aggravating lung diseases! "
The middle-aged man's face suddenly turned red.
"You... old man, you are talking nonsense. I... I don't even have a girlfriend, so you are overindulging!"
"Liar! Liar! Don't forget it, everyone."
The middle-aged man shouted and was about to leave.
I grabbed his hand. The middle-aged man wanted to shake me off, but found that my pulse had been seized.
"You...you...what are you doing?"
After struggling for a few times, the middle-aged man panicked when he couldn't get rid of my hand.
"It's nothing! Brother, sit down and just say a word, and I will give you a fortune for free."
"You? You can also count?"
"Of course! Grandpa is good at touching bones, and I am good at measuring words. Come on, say a word."
"Skinny! That's the word."
"Um!"
I raised my head, looked around, and asked, "Which of you is familiar with this big brother? The kind of buddy who knows everything!"
A man walked out of the crowd, patted the middle-aged man on the shoulder, and squatted next to him.
"Little brother, I know him well!"
"Oh? What's your relationship?"
"We... grew up together. I know how many moles he has on his butt."
"That's easy! Come and be a witness. If I'm right, then this big brother will pay five yuan and leave. If I'm not right, my pocket of antiques will belong to him."
After that, I looked at these two people again.
"But, then again, we, the grandfather and the grandson, have some occult skills when they go out to travel around the world. If you want to trick us, I will make it clear. We will definitely put a curse on him and make him have no descendants! "
"Well said, people in the light don't do secret things!"
"We'd better not offend people who are wandering the world, this is the rule!"
People around said this.
The middle-aged man couldn't wait any longer and asked, "Do you count?"
"Forget it! Of course it does!"
I closed my eyes, held a small bamboo stick in one hand, and wrote the word "skinny" on the ground. Then I knocked on it for a while, and then slowly said: "Brother, it's true that you don't have a girlfriend, but you I like your sister-in-law!"
"Also, don't smell your sister-in-law's shoes!"
As soon as I said these words, the scene was noisy and everyone laughed.
