As soon as I heard what the master said, I knew that there was no chance of digging into the fish nest today, so I had to reply angrily, "Yeah, I understand!"
I went to the back room and found out the things that the master always brought with him every time he went into the mountains, such as medicine baskets, sickles, etc. The master always took me into the mountains before, so I knew these things well.
After I packed up my things, the master also wiped his face with water. Before leaving, my father was still sleeping soundly. He must have been drunk last night.
My father is really a bad drinker, and he always likes to drink. But he drinks well. After drinking too much, he doesn’t cry, make trouble, or sleep. One time after drinking too much, he sat up in the middle of the night and said to the door, "You
It’s coming!”, and then lay down again and fell asleep. I was so scared that I didn’t dare to sleep all night.
The master lives at the east end of the village, with mountains right outside his door.
I helped the master carry the medicine basket and ran ahead, quickly climbed up the slope into the mountain, and trotted along the hairy path in the woods. The master was old and had slow legs and legs, so he was far behind me soon.
It's so cold in the winter morning that my breath is filled with ice.
As I was running, I heard the sound of something stepping on dried leaves from the forest not far away from me. It was a "clatter, clatter, clatter" and the sound was quite loud.
I was curious about what it was, and it made such a loud noise, so I leaned over and quietly touched it to take a look.
The old forest is deep, and the leaves that have been rotten for many years are piled together. If you put a foot down, the ridge cover can be covered!
When I quietly came closer and took a look, oh my god! I have never seen such a scary scene!
Where I am is on the top of a slope, facing the bottom of the slope is a large stone cellar. It is densely packed with hundreds of yellow leather husks walking around in a big circle, and the leaves of the trees are clattering when they are stepped on.
"It was a loud noise! It made my hair stand on end!"
I saw among the group of yellow-skinned ones, there was a big yellow-skinned one named Kachi. He was as big as a native dog, obviously a few thicker than the ordinary ones, and his hair was white. He was squatting on the ground like a human, with his mouth full.
It's bloody!
There was a big roe deer lying next to him. He was kicking his legs and panting heavily. His air intake was less and his air was more out. It was obvious that he was dying!
I was lying in a tree nest on the top of the slope, and I could just see the old yellow man biting its neck and sucking blood!
I was trembling all over and wanted to leave this scary and scary place quickly and go find the master!
The cat hunched over and just got up, out of the corner of his eye, he saw the old yellow cat stopped sucking blood and was staring at me, grinning with its mouth wide open!
Not good! I was discovered!
In a panic, my feet suddenly slipped and I went out!
"Ahhh...fuck...fuck...ahhh..."
I stumbled several times, turned over several times, and slid along the slope. I reached the bottom of the slope and fell into a thick pile of leaves before stopping!
After finishing the calf, I thought that this one would be very miserable. Instead of running out, it fell into the pile of yellow skins. Wouldn't this be a chicken giving New Year greetings to a nest of weasels? It will definitely come back and never come back!
Regardless of the pain all over my body, my first reaction was to run and escape from here!
Who knows if so many yellow skins will suck my blood dry? After all, my body is much smaller than that of a big roe deer!
As soon as I thought about this, I quickly got up. Fortunately, in winter, I wore leather pants over cotton pants, which were thick, so even if my body hurt, it was no big deal.
The group of yellow-skinned men suddenly looked at someone falling out of thin air, and they were probably quite frightened. "Zhizhi" screamed and ran away, then slipped into the cracks of the stone cellar and hid, probably making a nest there.
But the old yellow guy didn't run away. It didn't seem to be afraid of me at all. Instead, it slowly stood upright and stood like a human!
It stood straight on its hind legs and took a few steps forward. It stretched out its front paws to wipe its mouth and wiped the blood from the corners of its mouth. It stacked its two paws up and down and made a strange move towards me.
.
I was trembling with fear, what was this going on?
Are you planning to knock me down and suck my blood?
I watched it suck the blood out of the roe deer!
My legs were so scared that I didn't dare to move at all, fearing that if I turned around and ran away it would jump over and bite me.
We just stared at each other, and after waiting for more than ten minutes, we didn't see any movement from it. It still had its two paws stacked up and down, as if it was bowing to me.
Suddenly I remembered a story my master told me, which was about Huang Pizi asking for a seal. Could it be that this old Huang Pizi also wanted to ask me for a seal?
A gust of wind blew by, causing the dry leaves of the trees to rustle, as if countless ghost hands were clapping.
The more I think about it, the more scared I get!
"Bang... bang... crackling... crackling..."
The moment I was stunned, I heard a few explosions not far away, followed by a series of firecrackers.
It shocked me so much that I immediately came back to my senses.
According to the village custom, I know this is a funeral, someone has died!
The old man Huangpi was also shaken by the sound of firecrackers. He put down his paws and walked slowly on his stomach. After a while, he disappeared into the jungle. He just glanced back at me before leaving. There was a clear smile on his lips, which was very common.
human nature.
There was only one dead roe deer left on the pile of rocks in front of me, twitching all over as its blood was sucked dry!
Without thinking too much, I rolled up the slope without daring to look back. I kicked and ran out of the forest towards the previous trail.
I happened to meet the master head-on. He seemed to know that I was nearby. He stopped there to smoke his pipe and rest, probably waiting for me.
I was so scared that I cried "Wow". The master patted my back, touched my head, and muttered, "Touch my hair, it won't scare me..."
I told the master what I had just experienced in an exaggerated manner. The master puffed on his cigarette and said with a smile, "That's bullshit asking for a title! This is the age of the end of the Dharma, and animal spirits are not allowed to become immortals! You two are destined, so it is worshiping you.
!”
I was puzzled and asked: "Why does it worship me?"
"It's normal for it to worship you. You are destined to bring immortality to it. Sooner or later, it will have to go to your camp to practice. This is a chance and a destiny!" The master put down his pipe and pot and knocked the ashes. His eyes became profound, as if he was looking at the vast sky above his head.
The sky is so unpredictable.
I scratched my head and asked in confusion: "Master, what is immortality?"
"Ahem...ah bah"
The master spit out the thick smoke, sighed and said: "When it comes to immortality, we have to mention the immortals in the Northeast. There are three types: Baojiaxian, Chumaxian and Chudao immortal."
"The Baojiaxian does not come out, nor does it directly treat people. Many families offer the Baojiaxian to pray for the safety of the whole family. The Baojiaxian is often posted on the wall or carved with a tablet to enshrine it, and Huhuangpython is often the most common.
You see, there are also some wild immortals from the outside world."
"I know this. There are many houses in the village. Mrs. Zhang's family has Chang Xian'er, and Old Sun's family has Fox Fairy'er... I've been to their houses and seen them, and they are all posted on the wall." I interrupted the master,
He rushed to say.
"Well, here are the horse immortals. They possess the body of Xiangtong's younger brother, horse, and see things and practice merit. A hall has a red hall, a hall head, a hall eye, a leader of the hall, four beams and eight pillars, and a clear breeze and smoke soul.
, composed of military report horses and so on, what I want is to cultivate my true nature in the deep mountains, and become famous all over the world when I come out of the ancient cave!"
"Hey, these two sentences seem to be a couplet, right? Master, there is an old lady Ma who is a great dancer!"
"Yes, that old lady Ma is Chuma Xian'er!"
"And the Taoist Immortal..."
"Are they any different, Master?"
"Of course it's different. Baojiaxian doesn't need to go out. What needs to come out is Chumaxian and Chudao Immortal."
The master waved his hand and used a sickle to cut off a few thick branches blocking the road, and told me to look at my feet and don't get stuck and fall.
"In fact, the most essential difference is that my younger brother Ma Xiangtong has different origins, and the power and mission behind him are also different. The fate of being a Taoist immortal has been with me since birth, so I have had the experience of turning danger into safety since I was a child. Just like you,
I almost died when I was three years old." The master held my hand and said as we walked.
"The focus of the Taoist Immortal is to sharpen the heart. Through all kinds of ups and downs, all kinds of tribulations, all the shortcomings and weaknesses in the character are worn away. The more you care about something, the less you can let go of it. The more you cling to something, the more you polish it, until
Smooth your xinxing and become enlightened. So only when your xinxing reaches the standard, can you practice the Tao and complete your mission."
"Most of the fate of Chumaxian is inherited from the family, and some are combined with one's own innate or acquired fate, and the physical pain and suffering are particularly severe. Most of the purpose of coming out is that the power behind you wants to become famous and accumulate merit in this way.
"
After listening to the master for a long time, I was still confused and half understood.
The master smiled and said to me: "You are still too young now and don't understand many things. Even if you set up a hall, it can only be a secret hall. I am telling you this to give you a general understanding first.
He is not an ordinary person, he comes with a mission in this life."
"..." I was a little confused for a moment. I listened to the master talking for a long time, and the more he talked, the more confused I became.
"Feng'er, remember what Master said, remember it with all your heart! No matter what kind of immortal you are, you must first learn to be a human being and have kind thoughts in your heart!" Master stopped and said to me meaningfully, I have never seen this before
Master has been so serious!
"Well, I remember Master!"
"You little brat, didn't you have a lot of questions to ask last night? Just ask them!" the master said with a kind face, touching my head.
Looking at the kind old man in front of me, I feel warm in my heart. I have never seen my grandfather since I was born. I think it should be the feeling of being with the master, warm and happy. Subconsciously, I have already regarded this old man as my grandfather.
The master gave me a shock and asked me cheerfully: "You little kid doesn't know what to think about every day, you are so weird. What's wrong? You don't ask again?"
I shook my head and felt that all those questions were suddenly unimportant. Nothing was more important than the master accompanying me.
When the master saw that I was silent, he didn't care either. He just said that he went into the mountain today to find some authentic medicinal herbs that were old enough to help me heal my body. When the preparation was done, he would set up a dark hall for me and collect some immortals.
Go to the hall to get acupoints.
Fortunately, the deep mountains are rich in products and there is no shortage of medicinal materials. It didn't take long for the two of us to find enough medicinal materials to go down the mountain.
As soon as I returned to the village entrance, I heard a bunch of idle old ladies chattering, saying that someone had died in Wangjiagou. The deceased was a pregnant woman who suffered from dystocia and massive hemorrhage. On the way to the county hospital, she was overturned and killed. The poor child was not born yet.
He was born and died after a fight!
It turns out that the firecrackers I heard in the mountains just now were set off by that family, and it turned out that someone was dead!
The master frowned, let out a long sigh, and said inexplicably: "What a sin!" This chapter has been completed!
