"Master Zhang?"
Jiang Jiahao exclaimed and subconsciously walked towards Zhang Ling. After walking a few steps, he stopped and looked back at the side hall.
At some point, the door to the side hall opened on its own.
"this..."
The doubts in Jiang Jiahao's eyes became more and more obvious, if you push it back a few decades.
He may have thought that a sensor device was installed near the side hall to create a sensor door, deliberately to bring out the mystery of the side hall.
But this is the 1960s, so it doesn’t match!
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Jiahao ignored the weirdness in the side hall and turned his head towards Zhang Ling.
This time I turned around and found that Zhang Ling was missing.
"I..."
Jiang Jiahao was ready to curse, so he could only run quickly to the place where Zhang Ling disappeared and looked around.
Seeing Zhang Ling already in a side hall on the right front, she chased after him.
"Master Zhang, I have many..."
"How did you sleep?"
In the side hall, Zhang Ling had already put incense and candles on the statue, then sat cross-legged on the futon and took out the wooden fish.
Jiang Jiahao looked at the scene in the side hall and saw that there were only two futons on the ground. He wanted to ask, don't you have any chairs here?
This side hall is slightly larger, with an area of about 100 square meters, and houses eight statues of gods of different shapes, both male and female.
Jiang Jiahao carefully identified the clothes of the eight people and could not guess their identities, but he was certain that these were definitely not the Eight Immortals.
Because there is no Lu Dongbin carrying a long sword, Tieguai Li holding a wine gourd, and no Zhang Guolao riding a donkey.
Seeing Zhang Ling starting to knock on the wooden fish again, Jiang Jiahao was too embarrassed to interrupt, so he could only sit cross-legged on the futon in a depressed manner.
This time, Jiang Jiahao had no intention of sleeping, but as the sound of wooden fish continued to sound, his expression became more dazed.
At this moment, he thought of many old friends, parents, relatives and friends from his previous life, as well as the drug dealers and mercenaries he had killed.
These people were like a slide show, constantly appearing in front of Jiang Jiahao, making Jiang Jiahao's originally ethereal mood slowly become impetuous.
Until the person in front of him stopped at his ex-wife from his previous life, a surge of anger emerged in his heart, making Jiang Jiahao's breathing become a little heavier.
Gradually, Jiang Jiahao's breathing became heavier and heavier, and bloodshot eyes appeared, and the bloodshot eyes became more and more obvious.
Suddenly, Jiang Jiahao shouted loudly, grabbed the wooden fish in front of Zhang Ling and threw it out: "That's enough, stop knocking!"
The sound of the wooden fish stopped, the bloodshot eyes in Jiang Jiahao's eyes gradually receded, and the evil fire that suddenly rose in his heart slowly calmed down.
He showed an apologetic look to Zhang Ling and hurriedly retrieved the wooden fish, only to find that this ancient artifact had been cracked and broken.
"Sorry, Master Zhang Ling, I really didn't mean it."
"How much does this cost? I'll pay it to you."
After returning the wooden fish to Zhang Ling, Jiang Jiahao was ready to be killed by Zhang Ling.
Zhang Ling touched the cracks on the wooden fish and didn't care. Instead, she raised her hand to touch Jiang Jiahao's cheek.
Seeing this, Jiang Jiahao quickly squatted in front of Zhang Ling so that Zhang Ling's hand could touch him.
He said harmoniously: "Master Zhang, there may be something wrong with my body, and I become extremely angry. I couldn't control my emotions just now and broke your wooden fish. I'm really sorry."
"I am coming to see you this time. Arou must have informed you of my situation in advance. I hope Master Zhang can help me clear up my doubts."
Zhang Ling did not touch Jiang Jiahao's cheek, but grabbed his hand and repeatedly touched the palm prints in Jiang Jiahao's palm, shaking her head and mumbling to herself.
"It's strange, it's so strange. It seems that Master is right. There are thousands of ways in the world, but I'm still just scratching the surface."
After pondering for a moment, Zhang Ling stood up with the help of Jiang Jiahao, leaning on crutches, and pointed to the statue in the room: "The source of your suffering is your heart disease."
"Heart disease requires heart medicine. I'm not a doctor. I can't help you cure your disease, but I can delay your illness."
"Place incense on the statue of the gods. If you have a chance, the immortal will help you answer your questions. If you don't have a chance, don't force it."
When Jiang Jiahao heard this, his expression kept changing. He could only nod his head, took the incense candle and put incense on the statue.
After thinking about it, Jiang Jiahao stood devoutly in front of the statue, bowed respectfully, and looked at Zhang Ling.
Zhang Ling didn't speak, she just waved to Jiang Jiahao and walked out of the side hall.
"While you were sleeping, Xiaorou had already gone back. Before you go to court, you can stay here temporarily."
"Every day, we rise when the rooster crows and rest at sunset. We eat simple meals, read the Taoist scriptures, practice boxing and kicking, and often wipe the dust in front of the statues to wash away the depression in our hearts."
"When you can look down upon everything, maybe your heart ailments can be cured."
"Here, I'll let you stay in this wing for now. If you're hungry, there's firewood in the kitchen so you can cook for yourself."
"If you can't sleep at night, try to stay in the house and don't go out and walk around. You are not a practitioner and may easily conflict with the gods."
Zhang Ling took Jiang Jiahao to a side room, took out the key and opened the lock, handed the key and lock to Jiang Jiahao, turned and left.
Jiang Jiahao watched Zhang Ling walk away, stared at the lock in his hand for a long time, then looked up at the sky, turned around and got into the wing, locking the door.
"Of the two side halls, one made me have a good sleep and my mind was empty. The other made the negative emotions in my heart explode to the extreme, but it was restrained very well."
"This Zhang Ling is really not an ordinary person, so let's live here for a few days as she said."
“Maybe it’s really good for me to stay away from the hustle and bustle for a while?!”
The decoration in the wing room is very simple, with only a wooden bed, a wooden table, a wooden chair and a cabinet.
There was some dust floating on the bed. Jiang Jiahao blew it, took the broom and swept it again. He opened the cabinet and found a set of gray cloth quilts inside.
Taking out the bedding and laying it on the wooden bed, Jiang Jiahao leaned against the wall, staring at the flickering candlelight on the table, and fell into deep thought.
Since I came to Zhang Ling today, everything has conveyed two words to Jiang Jiahao: "Mysterious."
Zhang Ling is very mysterious, completely in line with all the characteristics of a goddess in Jiang Jiahao's mind, but slightly different.
Thinking back to the situation where he fell asleep inexplicably today, Jiang Jiahao was extremely sure that the reason why he fell asleep was because of the sound of the wooden fish.
Including later, when Jiang Jiahao's anger was aroused, he also heard the sound of wooden fish.
"Muyu..."
Jiang Jiahao put on his shoes and went to the ground to find the previous side hall, but found that the damaged wooden fish was no longer there.
Simply, Jiang Jiahao prepared to visit the shrine.
There are a total of five main halls, twelve side halls, six wing rooms, one toilet and one warehouse in the courtyard.
The decoration of the entire courtyard is in one word, old, as if this courtyard was not built in recent decades, but has existed for a long time.
In a main hall, a tall statue of a god is enshrined. The statue is wearing golden armor and red robes, with a sword on his waist, a long bow on his back, and a long spear in his hand.
The statue is about three meters high, cast in bronze, with majestic carvings and lifelike expressions.
Jiang Jiahao didn't know which god this statue belonged to, so he curiously walked into the main hall and was about to burn some incense when he saw a girl practicing drawing spells in the corner.
A blind girl could actually draw spells, which made Jiang Jiahao curious, so he stepped forward.
As Jiang Jiahao approached, the girl felt something in her heart. Her hand slipped and she drew the wrong spell. She felt a little aggrieved on her face and could only continue to draw.
Jiang Jiahao didn't dare to disturb the girl, he just took the futon, sat next to the girl, and watched her draw the spell.
The girl drew very carefully. Even though she couldn't see anything, she was able to draw very delicate spells. It was really amazing.
As time passed, the girl stopped the pen in her hand and lazily lifted the black eye mask on her face, revealing a pair of bright big eyes.
Seeing Jiang Jiahao staring at her with a dumbfounded expression, she smiled, revealing two shallow dimples.
"You don't think I'm blind, do you?"
"You are not blind, why do you wear a blindfold and use a cane?"
Jiang Jiahao was a bit arrogant, feeling that this little girl is not blind, she is pretending to be blind!
"There is too much filth in the world. If you look at it too much, your Taoist mind will become dusty."
"Grandma said that I am too young and should practice more while my mind is empty. When I can develop my yin and yang eyes, I can take off the blindfold."
"Oh, but it's so difficult. I've been wearing an eye patch since I was young, and I can only secretly take it off for a short while every day. I don't know when I will be able to develop my yin and yang eyes."
"Hey, do you want to stay here tonight? My name is Zhang Jing, you can call me Jing'er."
"What about you, what should I call you?"
