Let's talk about my economic situation at that time: at the end of 07, I did have a car and two houses, but in fact, because I was optimistic about real estate, I borrowed some foreign debts from Agen's cousin Gu, and I still had a mortgage to repay, so in fact, I didn't have a lot of money on hand, and there was a lot of pressure to repay. Even the 20,000 yuan nutrition fee for my uncle is a little painful.

Of course, if I take out the shares of the jewelry store, there will still be some money, but that is the foundation of my life, and I dare not mess around.

When it comes to the people I want to be grateful for in my life, there are really too many, but in 05 and 06, the person I want to be grateful to the most is Agen's cousin Gu Xianxiong Gu's boss. I have always respected Boss Gu very much, if he hadn't given me the opportunity, maybe I would still be running a fast food restaurant in a village next to an industrial park - people should know how to be grateful.

At the end of September 2007, I returned to my normal life, inspecting the store every day, purchasing goods, soliciting customers, settling accounts, and expanding my business...... This kind of life is busy and busy, and it is actually idle when it is said that it is idle, mainly because I am reluctant to let go.

In the past, I was a person who did everything by himself, and I did many things by hand, on the one hand, because Agen was relatively simple and kind, and his temperament was relatively weak, and on the other hand, because I regarded it as my own career. As a result, many clerks said that I was a "desperate Saburo" and "Lu Papi"...... However, because I am used to being strict, and I lead by example and do things fairly, the people below are more afraid of me and obey me, so that although Agen has more shares than me, others regard me as the leader.

When I came back this time, I started to let things go to the people I had cultivated before and trusted more, and I was basically on the defensive except for the daily inventory of the cash flow. Many people say that Brother Lu went home and changed his personality.

I started to have some leisure, so I studied the 12 methods in MP4 during the day every day, and when I went back at night, I read them on the computer. Sometimes I am so obsessed that I forget to sleep or eat. As time went on, I gradually found that my brain began to become smarter, my memory increased, and I remembered things like pictures, and those obscure things began to understand.

Of course, my main energy at that stage was still on recruiting Toshiko's earth soul back and restoring her intelligence.

In Taoism, there is a saying of three souls and seven spirits - the human spirit can be called the soul, and its soul has three, one is the heavenly soul, the second is the earth soul, and the third is the life soul. There are seven spirits, one is the sky, two are the wisdom, three are the qi, four are the force, five are the center, six are the essence, and the seven are the Ying. The soul in this refers to the spirit that can exist without the human body; 魄 refers to the spirit that appears by attaching itself to the body.

The three souls in ancient times were also called "fetal light, cool spirit, ghost", and some people called it "the main soul, the soul of awakening, the soul of life" or "the original god, the yang god, the yin god", in short, the flower by the human that is, the ghost, experienced life and death, the main consciousness that was retained, only the soul, also called the yin god, at the beginning like a fire candle in the wind, can be extinguished in an instant, not left in the world, but reversed by the secret method, after thousands of sufferings finally remained, but also washed by the yin wind, some of the memory, family and human nature, and these will gradually fade with the growth of age, Eventually turned into a ghost. Only by recalling and fusing the earth soul that has left its body can it survive for a long time.

How to recall the ethereal earth soul, Granny Luo has her own secret method, and for this reason, she retains one of Duoduo's oldest baby teeth.

According to her method, I still need to find other materials, the most important one is called the Ten Year Soul Rejuvenation Grass.

Soul grass is actually a kind of Chinese herbal medicine, belongs to the whole grass or leaves of the three white herbaceae plants, the main treatment of bruises, the whole plant to treat breast sores, and the leaves to treat centipede bites, in the "Guangxi Traditional Chinese Medicine" and "Guangxi Medicinal Plant Directory" are recorded, this is a very good looking for medicinal materials, however, it is difficult to be in the front of the word "ten years".

Soul revival grass is distributed in Guangxi, Yunnan and other southern warm and humid mountainous areas, is a creeping herb, the whole plant has a fishy smell, smooth and hairless, the growth cycle is one to three years, as short as a few months. These do not have a wonderful effect, only when they have grown for more than ten years, the stamens are more than six, the filaments are thick and short, and the grass body is purple, can they have the strange effect of rejuvenating the soul.

I am burdened with the burden of life and trivial matters, where can I find it?

I was really helpless, so I had to call Boss Gu, who has been running around Guangzhou, Southeast Asia and Hong Kong all the year round, and asked to help me find it through his connections. Boss Gu agreed, saying that he had a friend from the Southern Pharmaceutical Factory and could help me ask. He asked me again what I was looking for, but I didn't dare to tell the truth, so I said I would help my friend find it.

Every time the yin qi is at its peak on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, there will be a period of consciousness dissipation, and it is possible that he will go crazy at this time. Of course, Duoduo is not an aggressive (this refers to natural aggression, not driven by people) imps, and will not harm people, but at this time it will become green and fanged, and the shape is as terrifying as when it died, and it is washed by the yin wind and painful.

Ten years of soul grass search period is far away, far water can not quench the thirst, how can I bear my little Lori to endure pain, so in the twelve methods of the body epidemic to find a way, with wicker branches and leaves dipped in water (also called rootless water, in ancient times often to rain dew ice Ling is better, and I use the distilled soda in the rice cooker) patting, every night to recite ten minutes of pure heart mantra, and then knot the inner seal, chant the Buddha's Padmasambhava six vajra mantra, three times a night, to stabilize the body.

With my persistence, Duoduo was still crying in pain on the fifteenth night, and she was already able to bite her lip and endure the pain in the first year of junior high school.

Although there is still a bag of tears in the eyes, there will be no drops.

The longer I study The Twelve Methods of Suppressing the Mountains, the more profound I feel.

Although there are a lot of difficult and difficult places to understand, there are also ignorance in random stuffing, I still think that the author of the mountain pavilion is using the Spring and Autumn penmanship to fool people, but there are some places that can be understood, but it is like drinking sweet springs, and the hut is suddenly opened. As I said before, this is not a book that focuses on the witch Gu of Miaojiang, and many of the places even involve some theories and principles of Taoism and Buddhism in the Central Plains, so that I can compare it with the metaphysical Taoist collections I bought and corroborate each other.

At that stage, what benefited me the most was not the text, but a large number of notes and supplements, the text was the Tao, and the commentary was the technique, the Tao was correct but difficult, and the technique made the specific method criterion, clear and easy to understand, and had practical operational feasibility, the person who had the most was called Luo Eighteen. He was my father-in-law—of course, I didn't know anything about it at first, and I had a certain disagreement with his surname, which I once thought was a pen name.

That's an afterword.

Life is still going on, October is the active period of the consumer goods market, the business in the store is starting to improve, and I am getting busier and busier, sometimes it is already eleven or twelve o'clock when I get home, but because of the fat worm in my body, my spirit is getting better and better, and I am not too tired. Duoduo would still live in her porcelain jar during the day, staying for about twelve hours a day, and at night she would pop out and play in the house, work, help me with laundry, mop the floor, and clean up.

As the days go by, I don't think of Duoduo as an anomaly, I just feel like a little nanny, a little daughter.

Although the Golden Silkworm Gu is my natal Gu, it is washed and warmed day and night with my flesh and blood essence (to be honest, I have doubts about this, the so-called flesh and blood essence are all vain things, and I only feel that the daily arrangement is reduced), but it is lively by nature, and likes to come out for a walk without anything to do, once every two days at the beginning, and once a day after that, it will slip out of the valley road and jump in the room. I will buy some offal flesh and meat, mix it with a 52-degree two-pot head and feed it, all licked and eaten cleanly, no residue is left, and the bowl does not need to be washed.

The Golden Silkworm Gu is a poisonous thing, but it already has wisdom, and he likes to play with the little ghost doll Duoduo, but the Golden Silkworm Gu is yang, Duoduo doesn't like it, and is always unwilling, so the two often chase peek-a-boo in various rooms, which has their own fun.

At first, I thought that the positive of the Golden Silkworm Gu would burn Duoduo, and then after a few times, I found that Duoduo's divine soul was actually a little stronger, although it was slight, but I had already contacted her through the technique of the talisman, and it was naturally clear, so I let it go. However, once two small things actually ran to someone else's house, scaring a middle-aged woman into fainting. When I heard about this in the property management office downstairs, I was very annoyed, so I strictly ordered them not to run around, and the golden silkworm Gu looked at me with a pair of black bean eyes, while Duoduo nodded like a chicken pecking rice.

Within a few days, however, such complaints were frequent, and even one family began to move out.

Housing prices plummeted, and my heart ached. However, which one is not the fault of the two of them this time, this is a later story, and I will not mention it here for the time being.

Every Saturday, I take the porcelain doll to the nearby people's hospital to hang out.

Why is that? The Golden Silkworm Gu has a double meal for one worm, and it is often warm, while the flowers are spirits, they can't eat mortal things, and they don't need metabolism like living creatures, but over time, they will naturally be damaged. Ordinary people raise little ghosts, sharpened their minds, perverse temperament, and jealousy, so they often put a pair of small dishes and chopsticks on the table during meals, add more beautiful children's clothes and toys, and play day and night, and Duoduo has my talismans and worship gods, and pray and hold mantras every day, and her nature is not lost, but I always want her to be better, so I thought of a way to go to the hospital to collect the heavenly soul and nourish Duoduo.

What is the heavenly soul, in fact, it has been mentioned before, people are divided into three souls, which are the heavenly soul, the earth soul, and the life soul. The three souls live in the spirit, so the human body dies, and the three souls return to the three routes: the heavenly soul returns to the heavenly road, which is the immortal "Wuji", because of the causal involvement of the body, so it cannot return to the origin of the ancestry, so it has to be taken away to the sustenance of the heavenly road in the upper space, and temporarily detained by its main god; When the soul of the earth returns to the underworld, that is, he enters hell and understands the cause and effect of good and evil; Human souls wander between cemeteries......

The root of the three souls is "truthfulness" (the reality of life), which is a form of energy generated by "truthfulness and thought" and absorbs spiritual essence and takes shape, which belongs to the spiritual realm. Once a person dies and dies, the three souls will disperse when they return to the center, and the earth soul and human soul cannot be used due to memory and personality rendering, but the heavenly soul is pure energy, and it will remain in the physical body for a period of time and overflow from the side.

This thing is a great complement for Duoduo. 02

In the morgue of the hospital, the three souls of the dead dissipated, and the fastest was the heavenly soul, which was less than an hour apart, and the hard-lived ones were only half a day, and they were scattered above the stars, leaving no one behind. So I'm also lucky, when the timing is good, I can absorb a few pieces of soul energy in a few hours, and when the timing is bad, I don't have a trace at all, I carry the porcelain jar back, Duoduo looks at me pitifully, and the eyes of the black pearl make me not only look forward to more people in my heart.

Well, there's something perverted about that......

Of course, regardless of whether there is or not, squatting in the hospital every Saturday has become an entertainment activity for me, Duoduo and Golden Silkworm Gu. Because they are outside, they dare not show themselves, one is afraid of the presence of high-ranking people, and the other is afraid of frightening the world. I went a lot, although people came and went, but there were also people who were suspicious, so I went to a few nearby hospitals to change turnovers, but relatively speaking, I went to Sha Tin more, so that there was a female doctor who looked like an iceberg thought that I was secretly in love with her, and nothing gave me a white eye.

In other words, this royal sister looks pretty good......
