This Taoist was skinny and thin, hiding in a dirty Taoist robe. He himself was unkempt and looked like a feather duster that had lost its hair.
Only one pair of eyes, wandering around, looked very shrewd.
Zhu Yunxi was looking at him, and the Taoist was also looking at the group of people in front of him. The more he looked at him, the more excited he became.
These people are truly noble people. The furs on the leaders, an old man and a young man, are worth thousands of gold, and the guards around them all look like they are battle-hardened people.
Suddenly, Liao Chen's hand hidden in the Taoist robe shook violently.
Next to the old man opposite, the bow-legged entourage, as well as those tiger-backed Chinese characters, were all paired with official boots under their ordinary clothes. And the official boots of these people looked extraordinary at first glance.
"hiss!"
Liao Chenxin took a breath of air-conditioning. He lived in a mountain Taoist temple, so naturally he was not really pure and celibate. He used the surrounding villagers to help him spread his reputation. If he could attract real nobles from the capital to come and perform a show called Three Visits to the Thatched Cottage, his worth would naturally skyrocket.
Great reputation.
Even owning a Taoist temple of your own is easy!
"Who are these two grandsons?" Liao Chenxin thought quickly, "In the Ming Dynasty, there were only a few relatives of this age..."
Remember https://m in one second.
At that moment, the old Taoist calmed down and said, "May I ask your distinguished guest's name?"
Zhu Yunxi smiled at the sloppy old man and said, "Don't you know how to calculate? Can you calculate my last name?"
Liao Chen choked up in his heart and said with a smile, "Dear guests and Taoist cultivators, you can't pry into the secrets of heaven!" After saying that, he straightened his thin body and continued to speak, "You have come all the way to seek medical advice, or...
Ask about marriage and future. Also, do you want to calculate your fortune?"
"Ha!" The old man smiled beamingly, "You are such an old man, you have such a soft tone!"
"I have been cultivating Taoism all my life, and I have only done a little bit of it!" Liao Chen smiled mysteriously, and said sideways, "Please, sit in the room." After that, he said to the Taoist next to him, "Go and make some cloud dew for you nobles.
Come?"
The grandfather and grandson entered the house with their entourage. The already intolerant house was immediately overcrowded. There were books everywhere in the house, and these books had been read frequently and had some rough edges after being flipped through frequently.
(The rough edges mean that the pages are old and the corners are not so neat)
When it comes to pretending, you need to be 30% disguised and 70% skillful.
With these books alone, this old Taoist is much better than those fat-headed bald donkeys who only know how to recite Buddha's name and cheat money.
Zhu Yunxi asked casually, "What is Yunlu!"
"The dew of the morning glow!" Liao Chen sat behind the desk and said with a smile, "Take the water from sunrise and sunset, which means the harmony of yin and yang, and offer it in front of the statue of Laojun. Wait for seven to seven forty-nine hours until the yin and yang harmony is complete. Soak in it.
The fragrant tea picked at dawn is cloud dew!"
"Cloud dew can prolong life and strengthen the body. If you hadn't come all the way, you would never be able to entertain people with this stuff!"
Zhu Yunxi was startled when he was deceived. The dew in the morning and evening lasted for seventy-seven or forty-nine hours?
Then there are fucking bugs, right?
Liao Chen continued to show off, "This water is a Taoist secret method that can best wash away the dregs of the human body. After drinking it, it has the effect of detoxifying and nourishing the skin..."
Come on, it’s because your stomach is full after drinking too much!
Zhu Yunxi was not happy to see this old Taoist being shrouded in mist. What bothered him the most in his life were these guys who exaggerated their own worth and deceived others.
Then he stretched out his hand and said with a smile, "I heard that people's faces are the most accurate. Come on, let me see?"
After the words fell, the two guards stood silently beside Chen, touching their waists and staring at the old Taoist.
"Looking at the nervousness of these people, the young man in front of me must be a very favored junior in the family, and maybe heir to the title!"
He looked again and saw that the wealthy old man opposite him looked at this young man with an extremely doting look, and he already had some concerns in his heart.
At that moment, he stretched out his thin, dry hands, stroked his beard, and pondered, "May I ask your birth date?"
"Don't you know how to do math...?"
Before Zhu Yunxi could finish speaking, the old man suddenly spoke, "On the ninth day of the eleventh month of the eleventh year of Hongwu, on the third day of the Yinshi period, it was said that there would be snow, but it was cloudy all day, but it didn't snow at all. It was just windy. He was born
Then, the next day it was sunny and cloudless!”
After hearing this, Zhu Yunxi looked at the old man, his eyes full of tenderness, and said emotionally, "Grandpa, do you remember it so clearly?"
The old man also said softly, "If we don't remember, who else..." As he said that, he smiled silently.
"Fate is indescribably precious!" Liao Chen muttered, "It was supposed to snow, but it stopped because of you. Then the sky cleared up thousands of miles away, illuminating the earth. This kind of destiny is indescribably precious, and it cannot be seen by human beings." As he said, he continued.
He sighed and said, "Looking at appearances is vain, seeing people is the best. This distinguished guest, there was a vision in the sky when you were born. You are destined to be protected by hundreds of gods and have a body of ten thousand gold throughout your life."
"You said it, but you didn't say it?" Zhu Yunxi said with a smile.
"But!" Liao Chen changed the subject, "Your parents were not close, and you were a little bumpy when you were young, and you were often sick. It was your ancestors who carefully raised you to what you are today. Your ancestors had high hopes for you, but you have a bit of a naughty temper.
, If you mess around when you are young, you will become a great person as an adult. Your personality is a bit stubborn, and you may not be able to do well in the future..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhu Yunxi suddenly pulled his palm back.
On the other side, Pu Bucheng's face was filled with anger, "The Taoist is so bold and talking nonsense!"
"I told you!" Liao Chenxin secretly thought, he keenly captured some information from the conversation between the two men.
The child in front of me is probably the child whose parents are no longer here and is regarded as the apple of his grandfather's eye. He also has high hopes for his future success.
At this time, the old man stepped forward and asked with a cold face, "You just said that he may not be able to do anything in the future? Make it clear!"
"The fish is hooked!"
Liao Chenxin smiled and said, "Noble man, please don't worry, how about I give you a look?"
"you............"
The old man waved his hand to stop the anxious Pu Bucheng, stretched out his big rough hand and said with a smile, "Let's see!"
These big hands are covered with calluses, which shows that this person is obviously from a low background. The joints are thick, and he looks like a martial artist who has been wielding swords and guns all year round. However, these calluses have gradually softened, which means that this person has been pampered and pampered for many years.
"You come from a humble background and use swords and guns to gain wealth!"
As soon as Liao Chen opened his mouth, he was shocked by the old man's cold eyes and became panicked.
Steady your mind and speak again slowly, "You are a perseverant person with a persevering character. You are the most unyielding and fearless person in your life! Now, you are in a high position, above tens of thousands of people."
As he said this, he met the old man's gaze again, and felt a chill in his heart.
Those who read fortune tell mostly rely on their life experiences. If Liao Chen has such a great reputation among the people around him, he naturally has some skills.
"You are also a lonely young man, your family is poor, and you have suffered all the vicissitudes of the world!"
The old man smiled and said, "As you said, we are from the army. Those who serve as soldiers to eat food are not all children from poor families. Anyone who has a future will become a soldier!"
"You have a tough destiny, but you have great opportunities, and you can always turn bad luck into good luck!" Liao Chen said again, "However, you have killed too many people in your life... Tsk tsk!"
"Say!" the old man said coldly.
"If you kill too much, I'm afraid it will be retaliated on your descendants..."
"Is this what you said may not be smooth sailing?" The old man laughed twice, "Is there a way to resolve it?"
Liao Chen let go of the old man's big hand, closed his eyes and thought, then suddenly opened his eyes, "Do you have any offerings at home?"
The old man suddenly smiled and scolded, "What do you think you are capable of, and you still come here to do this? Are you saying that if our family has no worship, we should give away money, build a temple to worship Laojun, etc.?"
Liao Chen's words were actually very bluffing, because he had already said a few things, but what he met was the grandfather and grandson who least believed in these things.
If the old man believed it and loved his grandson very much, he would naturally ask him.
The old man directly told me that he was not upset. Instead, he smiled and said, "My lord, you are too stubborn and suspicious, which is not good!" After saying that, he asked again, "I haven't asked you yet, what is the name of your distinguished guest?"
"This is the second time you asked us what our last name is?" the old man said with a sideways glance, "Why do you always ask us what our last name is?"
"If you don't leave your name, how can I use it to increase my worth in the future?"
Liao Chen became a little anxious and said, "The passing geese leave their voices, and the passing people leave their names. The distinguished guest is destined to me, so he left his name and offered it to Lord Dao. I can pray for you day and night!"
The old man frowned and said, "Taoism cultivates one's character and nature, and follows the natural laws of heaven, earth, and all things. It talks about things coming naturally and having a clear conscience. You are a person who wears Taoist robes but is tainted with vulgarity. Although you are a little clever, you are not upright!"
"Ah..." Liao Chen was speechless for a moment. For some reason, he was fine just now, but the rich old man opposite him fell out whenever he wanted.
"Grandson, today we and I came out to play to watch Xue recite poems to compete with each other!" The old man smiled at Zhu Yunxi and said, "Your grandpa is a rough guy and doesn't have any ink at all. But now he came up with a poem. Let's do it.
Read it, you write it!"
"Okay!" Zhu Yunxi smiled and looked around, "Where is the pen?"
His eyes like splashing donkey copper turned around, and he said in a muffled voice, "Use this!" After saying that, he took out a three-edged dagger with a blood groove from his arms, turned the handle upside down and handed it over.
Pu Bucheng jumped to his feet and said, "You guys, you take everything out. I'll see how I deal with you when I get back!"
"It doesn't matter, it's good!" Zhu Yunxi said with a smile, "Grandpa, if you read it, your grandson will be engraved on this wall!"
The old man put his hands behind his back, walked to the door, looked at the green hills outside the house, and said loudly, "Kill all the barbarian soldiers in the world, and the sword on his waist is still bloody. The old man doesn't know the hero, so he only asks for his name!"
"What a poem!" Zhu Yunxi praised, using his arms to carve four lines of words on the wall.
After waiting for a moment, under the short knife that cut iron like clay, the words on the wall had been cut into three-thirds.
(This poem was written by Zhu Yuanzhang after he met a monk in a temple who was watching people serve dishes.)
"Let's go home!" The old man laughed, opened the door and left.
Zhu Yunxi turned around and looked at Chen, "You have no ability! From now on, don't pretend to be an outsider!"
"This..." Seeing the two of them walking away, Liao Chen was stunned.
In fact, he didn't know that it was a great blessing that he could save his life.
Grandfather and grandson went down the mountain as a group.
The old man said to Zhu Yunxi, "There are many people in the world who deceive others and steal their reputation, so be careful in the future!"
"Grandpa!" Zhu Yunxi suddenly took the old man's hand, "Thank you!"
"Why are you thanking us?" The old man was puzzled.
"When I was young, my grandson actually complained in his heart, why didn't you look at my grandson squarely?" Zhu Yunxi lowered his head and said with some grievance, "But, today my grandson knows that it turns out that you are always...
....."
"Idiot!" The old man tightened his eldest grandson's hand, "You are our legitimate grandson, and you are our life! It is only natural for a grandpa to remember his grandson. When you were a child, you acted nonsense and failed to live up to expectations. It is useless to talk about these things. You
It may not be in my heart. Now that you have become a talented person, we are very happy that you can express your gratitude to us!"
In the mountains, grandfather and grandson are walking hand in hand. Those behind are half a step behind.
Suddenly, the old man turned around and said, "Old Pu!"
"The slave is here!"
"Go back and ask people to renovate the Laojun Palace in the palace, and give an order to Longhushan to choose a few good Taoist priests to come and live in the palace for a while!" the old man said.
"My slave obeys the order!"
Zhu Yunxi smiled. He didn't believe anything the old man said. But in his heart, he still believed it.
The group of people arrived at the pavilion where they had just stopped in the mountains. Li Jinglong was waiting there with others. He had robbed someone else's things, so naturally he could not show up on the mountain again.
"My lord, I'd like to see you..."
"Get up!" Zhu Yunxi raised his head and said, "Old Li, you said that Taoist is not clever! Grandpa Huang has seen it, he is a person who deceives the world and steals his reputation!"
"No.........ah?" Li Jinglong was stunned.
Then, Zhu Yunxi took out the ancient jade, threw it to him, and said with a smile, "This thing is probably a trick! Give it back to you!"
After that, the grandfather and grandson took the others and continued to move forward.
Li Jinglong stayed where he was, looking at the ancient jade in his hand, and his face became very embarrassed.
"Grandma, are you deceiving the world and stealing your reputation? I have to ask clearly whether this thing is a treasure and whether it is a good fortune that has been worshiped for twenty years!"
Cursing in his heart, he waved his hand and said to the servants around him, "Come on, follow me up the mountain!"
