Chapter 14: Born to be a Taoist?

It's strange to say, especially when my mother stands in the house and feels the deepest, with the sound of the old monk's chanting, the sound falls, and the originally cold room actually feels that it is gradually opening up, and even the original bone-penetrating coldness is slowly not felt. (The fastest update speed, remember this site to find this site)

It was estimated that only 20 minutes later, the old man Jiang stood up, walked into the west wing, looked around, and said to Widow Zhou: "Your Zhou Da is leaving, if you have anything to say, say it quickly." ”

As soon as Widow Zhou heard this, the tears of her original talent kept falling, and she shouted at the top of her voice: "Boss Zhou, you can go with peace of mind this time, don't worry about our two mothers (mother and son), I will be good to you in the next life." ”

Widow Zhou doesn't burp anymore?! My mother glanced at Widow Zhou suspiciously, but listening to Widow Zhou's words, she was aroused by the woman's family again, and she couldn't help herself, so she cried together.

"Yang Qi has finally fallen again, but it's a pity that it's too weak." Old man Jiang whispered, saying that the avenue is ruthless, and old man Jiang asked himself if he could not break the love of the world. So I couldn't help but remind Widow Zhou of the fact that Zhou Da's soul was about to leave, so that the affectionate couple could have the opportunity to say the last words for a while.

It is a blessing for Zhou Da to have the opportunity to set foot on Huangquan Road again, and he hopes that Widow Zhou can understand all this.

The room is no longer as cold as before, it feels like a normal room, I think Zhou Da's soul finally stepped into Huangquan Road, but the old monk's chanting still continues, and it still resounds in this room.

My mother asked Old Man Jiang softly, "Master Jiang, isn't Zhou Da gone this week?" Why is Master Huijue still reading? ”

"Zhou Da's soul is too empty, I'm afraid that I won't be able to cross the Huangquan Road, this old bald donkey wants to give him more mental power, and it can be regarded as sending the Buddha to the west, so that he can finish this Huangquan Road."

This old monk is worthy of being a monk, and he is really compassionate, my mother sighed, completely forgetting the old man who had to be the second uncle of Old Man Jiang.

The old monk chanted for Zhou Da for an hour before he finished the ritual, and the Zhou family was naturally grateful, and they must leave the old man Jiang and Monk Huijue to eat, but unexpectedly, the old monk Huijue said with a very serious expression: "No, no, it is my merit to do things, and it will become a business after eating, and it will not work, it will not work." ”

These words made everyone cry and laugh, why is this old monk so confusing when he speaks? It's still a sanctimonious look.

Only the old man Jiang said in surprise: "Don't pay attention to him, he is very calculating." ”

After saying goodbye to the Zhou family, my mother went back to my house first according to Old Man Jiang's words, and Old Man Jiang and Old Monk Huijue didn't know where to hang out, and they didn't come to my house until it was almost 10 o'clock in the evening.

After serving 2 cups of hot tea to the two masters, my father asked, "Master Jiang, Master Huijue, why did you come so late, which made me scared, thinking that you were not coming." ”

Old man Jiang took a sip of tea unhurriedly, and then said: "Although the people in the village are far away, I often go to your house, and it is inevitable that others will have a guess." So, sometimes it's better to be a little out of sight. ”

My dad thought about it, too, and in this environment, it would be better to be careful.

The two of them didn't sit for long, and the old monk Huijue was overdoing the ghost practice that the old man Jiang suppressed last time, and this superordinate ritual was done all night, and it was not over until the next day when the rooster crowed.

Accompanied by the old monk Huijue, my parents didn't sleep all night, and at the same time, my mother also specially told the two sisters that what happened at home was not allowed to be taken out and talked about, and not half a word could be revealed.

Old man Jiang is so interested, he didn't sleep all night, he just teased me, I slept, he stared at me silly, and occasionally my mother, who added tea and water to him, saw this scene, often went out with goosebumps, and my dad didn't see me so numb.

After the night, the ritual was over, the slightly tired old man Huijue washed his face, had breakfast with the old man Jiang, but did not sleep, and sat in the hall with the old man Jiang solemnly, looking like that, the old man Jiang was going to talk to my parents about me.

Who is my dad? Straightforward, honest but like a mirror in his heart, a person who is well versed in the world, seeing the posture of the two masters, he knew that he had something serious to say, and it was about his son, he immediately sat down respectfully in front of the old man Jiang, and then said: "Master Jiang, if my son has any problems, you say it, I can bear it." ”

Old man Jiang sighed, put down the teacup, seemed to be difficult to speak, and muttered for a long time before saying, "Do you remember what I said to you last time?" ”

"What's that?"

"Your child doesn't have any parental affiliation." Old man Jiang said this slowly, and his two eyes kept staring at my dad's face, wanting to see how my dad reacted.

My dad immediately became nervous: "Then Master Jiang, do you mean that my son is still in calamity?" We can't keep him, can we? ”

"The catastrophe is certain, he is a child's life, he should be robbed, born in response to the fate, the Taoist attitude in the face of the catastrophe is generally to cross by himself, which is unavoidable. I said that he has no parents, because he is a Taoist boy, and he will always return to my Tao, and it is not his fate to stay by your side, if he is forced to stay, he is afraid that he will not be able to survive these many disasters. Old man Jiang said very slowly, carefully considering the words, I was afraid that my parents would not be able to accept it for a while.

"Then Master Jiang, do you mean that I am going to send him to the mountains to cultivate?" My father's face was extremely ugly, which was simply unimaginable for him, and the only son who was sent to the Taoist path not long after the full moon? Impossible, absolutely impossible.

Not only my father, but my mother was also excited at this time: "Master Jiang, the child is still so young, I won't send him out, he is my son, the meat that fell from his body, I don't want this life, I have to raise him and feed him." I don't care what his life is, I'm damn in his way! ”

As soon as these words came out, the old man Jiang immediately became embarrassed, and the old monk Huijue on the side couldn't help but recite a Buddha name, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly cooled down.

"What are you talking about, you mother-in-law? How did Master Jiang help us? Why is it so ugly for you to speak? "The atmosphere in the room is dull, and my dad sees the embarrassment of the old man Jiang, in the affairs of children, women must not be rational, this is the nature of being a mother's natural protector, but my dad as a man can never do this.

Besides, to be a man, you have to know how to repay your kindness, Old Man Jiang not only saved his son, but also sent Huya and gave his son a merit, how can he embarrass others like this.

My dad rarely loses his temper with my mother, this roar, my mother was stunned at first, and then she heard the meaning, her face immediately turned red, and she quickly apologized to the old man Jiang: "Master Jiang, I'm sorry, I was really excited just now, after all, he is so small, I can't bear it."

Old man Jiang waved his hand, stood up and sighed, and said, "I don't blame you for this, if you change it, any pair of parents must not accept their son's body to be better, so they will be separated from him." Actually, it is fate for me to save your son, and it is my duty to be so good to him. There is a rule in our lineage, in the matter of fortune telling, the heaven and the earth are counted and the person alone is not counted as one's own body, but when the cultivation reaches a certain level, there will naturally be induction. ”

Speaking of this, Old Man Jiang paused, put his hands behind his back, walked back and forth in the hall, and thought for a while before saying: "As early as a few years ago, I faintly sensed that I would have a master-apprentice fate, and there would be disciples to inherit what I had learned. I'm lonely and adrift, and at this age there will be a disciple, which is also a happy event, I went to find a person to help me roughly calculate, indicating that my disciple will probably appear in this area, and he asked me if I would count again? I refused, after all, he had to pay a certain price, I don't want to owe him too much favor, this debt must be repaid, if I don't pay it back, this cause and effect is destined to be repaid on my apprentice, which is what I don't want to see. ”
