Don't tell me, all the cleaning we did in the tower yesterday was in vain. My Xia Gao recovered from his illness last night and got sick again this morning, so he came here. When Du Juan spoke, the mole on her upper lip trembled.
My Sijin family is in the same situation as your Xia Gao family, so I found him. Come on, let's go in together to find Taoist Tan. As Hu Yingzi spoke, he took the lead in entering the arch of Pagoda Mountain, and Du Juan followed. However, it was quiet in the tower. Along the floors of the tower and up to the top floor, Taoist Tan was nowhere to be seen.
They leaned against the tower window and looked out again, and shouted to Taoist Tan at the top of their lungs. After shouting several times, there was no response, so they had to get down from the tower and go out of the tower door.
Hu Yingzi looked at the fragments of the incense burner that she took out and put aside yesterday and asked, is it because we only cleaned the pagoda yesterday and did not compensate the three children for breaking the incense burner, so we have not been forgiven by the pagoda god? Du Juan said that this is also possible. Let's go together and buy a new incense burner and deliver it to you?
Hu Yingzi pondered for a while and said, I still have to go to Taoist Tan and ask him what the reason is. Du Juan suggested going to Taoist Tan's house to find him. Hu Yingzi shook his head, let's wait here, maybe Taoist Tan will come. I just went to Tanjiazhuang, and Taoist Tan was not at home. His wife said that he had come to Pagoda Mountain, but there was no trace of him. Du Juan was impatient and said that if Taoist Tan didn't come, or if he didn't come today, wouldn't the wait be in vain?
They were discussing and hesitating, wondering whether they should wait here or look elsewhere. They were undecided when suddenly a loud and sweet song from a man came from the hillside of the pagoda:
The world of ordinary people laughs haha, why are you traveling around the world? After suffering all the hardships, I will correct my path and never stain the peach and plum blossoms in the world...
Hu Yingzi ran excitedly to the side of the mountain, stood on a boulder and looked down. Sure enough, it was Taoist Tan who was wearing Taoist robes. He seemed to be carrying something in his hand, which could not be seen clearly from a distance. I asked Du Juan who was also following me. Du Juan might have better eyesight and said that I could see clearly. He was holding a cardboard box in his hand.
At this moment, Taoist Tan, who had reached the mountainside, found someone on the pagoda mountain, so he stopped singing and walked faster to the top of the pagoda. Hu Yingzi went up to him and said, "Taoist Tan, we have been waiting for you for a long time. Where have you been?" Taoist Tan immediately raised the paper box he was holding in his left hand and said, "I went to the county town to buy an incense burner. The incense burner in the tower was broken by three naughty children. If I don't buy an incense burner now, where can I burn incense?" Sacrifice to gods?
Hu Yingzi looked at Dujuan and smiled, meaning: That's what I said! Our children damaged things in the tower and there was no compensation, so the tower god did not forgive our children, and the madness relapsed.
Du Juan understood this meaning and felt guilty, and asked Taoist Tan, how much did the new incense burner you bought cost? We are willing to pay because the incense burner in the tower was damaged by our children, and we should be the adults to pay for it. Hu Yingzi also echoed that it should be compensated by us as parents.
Taoist Tan said as he walked, "You don't need to compensate me. I have already bought it with the money from the incense put out by the pilgrims." Having said this, he put down the paper box containing the incense burner, and saluted with clasped hands, saying thank you. It was really hard to clean the inside of this pagoda yesterday. On behalf of the pagoda god here, I would like to express my gratitude to you. thank.
Hu Yingzi smiled bitterly and said, "No need to thank you. This is what we should do. Now we just ask the Tower God to forgive our children and let their madness recover quickly." At this point, she told Taoist Tan about the symptoms of madness that her child Si Jin and Du Juan's child Xia Gao had returned to normal last night and relapsed this morning, and asked Taoist Tan repeatedly, "What is the God of the Tower doing?" Still haven’t forgiven our children?
Taoist Tan did not answer immediately. He only went into the pagoda, took out the newly purchased incense burner from the carton and placed it in its original position. He then asked the two pilgrims who followed him to burn incense and worship in front of the pagoda god, and then pulled Hu Yingzi aside. Said something quietly. Hu Yingzi nodded, pulled Du Juan down from the tower and out of the tower door. Du Juan asked, what did Taoist Tan say to you just now? Can our child's madness be cured?
Don’t talk, don’t talk, don’t talk until everything is done. Whatever I do, you do, just follow me. Hu Yingzi said so, Du Juan didn't have to ask any more questions. She followed Hu Yingzi and left Pagoda Mountain, crossed the Longpan River and went to Qijia Village and Tubao Yucai School together. They felt that their faces were dull but they needed to do something. A very happy thing to do.
Three days later, Xu Sijin and Xia Gao were completely cured of their illnesses and returned to school again. Their parents sent them there. Principal Tian asked Du Juan, Xia Gao's parent, why didn't classmate Long Lai come to school?
His illness may not have recovered, and he has now been transferred to a psychiatric hospital in the provincial capital. Cuckoo replied.
However, Principal Tian wanted to break the casserole and ask (wen) the truth, saying that the three children were playing truant and went to Pagoda Mountain to cause trouble. How come Xia Gao and Si Jin were cured of their illnesses? Why wasn't Long Lai's disease cured?
Dujuan told him that when my child became ill, he was sent to the county mental hospital for treatment, but he could not be cured. When Hu Yingzi’s child became ill, she was not sent to the county mental hospital for treatment at all. Taoist Tan apologized and cleaned the pagoda. I also followed Hu Yingzi's example. As a result, that night, both my child and Hu Yingzi's child were cured of their madness, except for Long Yue's child's madness. Crazy is not good.
Seeing that our children's madness was cured, Long Leap also planned to find Taoist Tan Taoist who was guarding the tower to apologize. But the next day, my child's madness relapsed. The madness of Hu Yingzi's children also recurred.
In this way, Long Tiaoyu didn't believe that asking Taoist Tan to accompany him to apologize would work. He was afraid that it would delay the child's treatment, so he transferred his child to the provincial capital psychiatric hospital. In fact, I also want to transfer my child, but I don’t have the money. Long Yueyou is a famous boss in Longpan Town. He is rich and can handle it.
The madness of Xia Gao and his classmate Sijin relapsed. How were they cured later? Principal Tian looked at her strangely and asked.
Du Juan stuck out her tongue, smiled mysteriously, and said that there was no cure at all, she was just following Hu Yingzi's example, and what Hu Yingzi did, I did. Hu Yingzi asked a clerk in the village to write a letter of apology for her family, Sijin, admitting her mistake and saying that she would not go to Pagoda Mountain again to mess around. It can also be said to be a letter of guarantee! I made more than a dozen copies and posted them on the most conspicuous walls or telephone poles of each village group. I also did what Hu Yingzi did. I copied down the self-criticism letter, signed it with my family’s name, Xia Gao, and made more than 20 copies. , deliberately made more copies and posted them everywhere, even in front of the school. Doesn’t Principal Tian know?
I know that many classmates gathered around to look at it, and I also looked at it, including Xia Gao's and Xu Sijin's. I thought at that time, why didn't I see Long Lai's letter of apology? When Principal Tian answered, he blinked, still looking puzzled.
