Before meeting Xu Jiaorong, Zhang Yutang always felt that deep down in his heart, there was an obsession complex, obsessed with every beautiful and kind-hearted woman in The Legend of White Snake.
These women are beautiful, passionate, kind, and benevolent, and they are like holy angels coming to the world.
After seeing them, I felt down-to-earth. It turned out that these women were so real and were living beside me.
In an instant, the obsession has become far away, and the inexplicable emotions are no longer the same as before.
"A twelve-year-old girl is not what I want. Maybe one day, I will really fall in love with you, so when that day comes, let me let go and chase you."
After getting rid of this inexplicable complex in his heart, Zhang Yutang felt that the sky was blue, the wind was blowing, and a feeling of comfort permeated his whole body.
The unreal feeling I had when I first met Xu Xian disappeared at this moment.
"In this era where humans, demons, immortals, Buddhas and ghosts coexist, I want to live my own wonderful life."
Zhang Yutang said silently in his heart:
"If you want to live a colorful and unrestrained life, you must have your own strength."
In their thoughts, the master and servant walked leisurely towards Zhang Mansion in the afterglow of the setting sun.
"How about it, have you taken a liking to the Xu family's daughter? If so, your father will find someone to talk to you about."
During the meal, Zhang Yuanwai looked at Zhang Yutang with a smile. Mrs. Zhang sat next to her husband and stared at Zhang Yutang:
"Don't be embarrassed. I have met the daughter of the Xu family. She is smart, hard-working and kind. She is a good girl, but she is a bit older. She is already twelve years old this year, five years older than you."
Zhang Yutang waved his hand and said:
"Mom, forget it. She is just a twelve-year-old girl. What can she know? What can you do if you marry her? Besides, my son is still young. When he grows up, he will be successful in school. What kind of wife will he be?
Can’t find it?”
"A good son with great ambition."
Zhang Yuanwai nodded happily and said:
"You have been paying attention to yourself since you were a child. I won't force you. You can do whatever you want. As long as you stop the incense of my Zhang family and let me have a face to meet my ancestors a hundred years later."
Mrs. Zhang had already gotten out of bed on her own. It was just a false alarm and her body was weak. Now that she heard about Zhang Yutang's Taoist studies, she looked at her son with some worry and asked with concern:
"Yu'er, are you really going to learn those deceptive tricks from some wild Taoist priests? I heard some storytellers say that those Taoist priests all live in the mist and have no connection with the world. Don't delay your future.
"
Facing his mother who cared about him, Zhang Yutang smiled and comforted:
"Don't worry, mother, I just like those things, but I won't delay my studies. When I grow up, I want to shine in the family and win a royal wife for my mother."
Mrs. Zhang suddenly smiled when she heard this: "My good son, you are indeed my mother's good son. Eat more and grow taller and fatter quickly. My mother is waiting for you to fight for me to be my wife."
…
After dinner, Zhang Yutang returned to his room and asked Li Yong and Abao to move a desk outside and place it in the middle of the courtyard.
I first washed my hands and face, and changed into a new set of clean clothes, then walked to the yard and ordered:
"Li Yong, go buy an incense burner or put a bowl of rice in it, and then bring a bunch of incense and a few stacks of longevity gold."
Li Yong was a little confused as to why his young master wanted these things so late at night, so he didn't say anything and just responded respectfully:
"Yes, sir."
The Abao next to him is just a child after all, and he can’t hold himself back:
"Sir, are we going to worship the gods? I remember that every time when the New Year comes, madam, the master also worships the gods like this."
"Just watch from the sidelines and don't talk too much."
Zhang Yutang smiled calmly:
"While Li Yong hasn't come yet, clean up the surrounding area quickly."
"Come on, sir, just wait, it will be ready soon." Abao responded and went to clean the floor.
Zhang Yutang pondered for a moment, asked Abao to stop, and said:
"Abao, don't be too busy cleaning. Go to the room to get the four treasures of the study."
"yes!"
Putting down the broom, Abao went to the room to fetch the Four Treasures of the Study, and placed them on the desk in the courtyard as instructed by Zhang Yutang.
Two oil lamps were lit on the desk, and the lights flickered and were very bright.
Taking advantage of the bright light, Zhang Yutang spread out the paper, raised his brush, and wrote an article in a rustling manner. After writing, he picked up the paper and read silently and carefully:
"Disciple Zhang Yutang, I swear before all the immortals, Buddhas, Taoist ancestors, saints, and Bodhisattvas to learn talismans and incantations to protect yourself, protect your family, control your home, help the world, save people, and do good deeds."
"From now on, I will be loyal, filial, benevolent and upright, and will never act against heaven. I hope that I can learn from it. I hope that the gods and Buddhas will protect my disciple Zhang Yutang and help him succeed in learning the Dharma. The talisman he painted will be a miracle and a shining light, blessing all people."
.
Vower: Zhang Yutang.

"I don't know what this article of oath is like. Anyway, as soon as three pillars of incense are burned, those gods, Buddhas, and Taoist ancestors will not care about a little person like me."
After waiting for a while, Abao had already cleaned up the yard and asked him to take the four treasures of the study back to his room. He waited for Li Yong with the sacred writings of oaths. After a while, Li Yong brought an incense burner, several stacks of longevity gold, and a bunch of
Qingxiang came over and put it on the table.
I don’t know where Li Yong found this incense burner. It has three legs and two erect ears. The glaze is smooth and light blue in color.
He took the incense burner and placed it between the two oil lamps. Immediately he said the same thing with his heart, said the oath clearly and reverently, recited the oath clearly and firmly, then pressed his fingerprints, lit the incense candle and inserted it into the incense burner.
When about half a stick of incense has been burned, pick up the sacred inscriptions, circle the incense three times, and burn it together with the longevity gold.
After burning, put your hands together and say silently, thanking the gods and Buddhas in the sky, and all the immortals and saints in the past for their blessings.
"This is just like a leader taking an oath before taking the stage to show his responsibility. There is a long way to go. Once he takes the stage, he still has the final say on what to do."
After swearing to God, he asked Li Yong and Abao to pack everything up and return to the room:
"Now that I have finished swearing to the gods, I can practice drawing the talisman. The way to draw the talisman is meditation and induction. I have finished swearing to the gods. Now I only need to figure out how to draw a good talisman."
The moon outside the window has already reached the zenith, and silvery white light pours down, covering the streets and alleys. At this time, everything is silent and vast.
After finishing his vows, Zhang Yutang felt a little tired:
"After swearing to the gods, you have to draw talisman with pen. There are many ways to draw talisman. You can use pens to draw on paper, you can use your fingers to make imaginary drawings, and you can use swords to draw talisman out of thin air. I am now a beginner in drawing talisman, and the most suitable way is to use pen and ink to draw it.
.”
"It is said in "Hua Fu" that if you can draw a talisman successfully, you can make the world move with one stroke, scare the ghosts and gods with two strokes, level the world with three strokes, and save the common people with four strokes. When will I be able to move the world with one stroke, scare the ghosts and gods, and bring peace to the world?
, the state of living the common people."
"Hehe, as long as I practice hard, I will do it one day, but it's too late now, and I have to go to class tomorrow, so it's time to rest."
