The child's smile was so bright that the Taoist priest couldn't even see it. His smile became even brighter, and he immediately lowered his hand towards Qian, touched Manbao's head, and asked with a smile: "Master Qian is here.
We haven’t seen each other for half a year, and little layman Manbao has grown a lot taller, and he looks rosy and healthy.” Fastest update Computer version: https:///
When Qian heard this, she immediately became happy and said, "Yes, I took her up the mountain to fulfill her wish. Not only is her health much better, I also feel much better this year."
Qian said: "Other than that, I came here to seek the interpretation of a dream from the temple master."
The Taoist priest glanced at the basket in Qian's hand, thought for a moment and said, "Master Shouching Monastery is in retreat. Master Qian has to wait for a while. Why don't you and the young layman pay homage to the Taoist Master first?"
Of course Qian had no objection.
She put the basket aside, pulled Manbao to kneel down on the futon, and kowtowed respectfully to the clay sculpture of the Supreme Laojun.
Qian is extremely pious, and Man Bao is also very pious. She has been worshiping Master Tianzun since she was sensible. She worships in the temple, at home, and sometimes at the entrance of the village.
She prayed when she was sick, couldn't eat, couldn't sleep, and had to pray even when she had nightmares at night. She was already very skilled in the business of praying to Master Tianzun.
Even the wishes she made were exactly the same every time. This was the line that Qian had designed for her when she was still in her infancy. Man Bao had long been used to it and thought that this was the only wish she could make.
So she bowed down with great respect and said to Master Tianzun in her heart: "May Master Tianzun bless Man Bao for safety, good health, and a smooth life."
Man Bao kowtowed three times, and seeing that his mother still had her eyes closed, he kowtowed a few more times to Master Tianzun without hesitation. It was not until Qian finished his wish and kowtowed and stood up that she quickly got up.
The Taoist priest stood aside and watched with a smile. After the mother and daughter finished making their wishes, he led them to the backyard.
It is said to be the backyard, but it is actually where the Taoist priests live, in the third courtyard.
The Master of Shouqing Temple, who was said to be in retreat, had just carried two bundles of firewood down from the back mountain. He threw the firewood in a corner of the yard, and then immediately went back to the house to wash his face, wash hands and change clothes. When he came out again, he looked like that fairy again.
The master of Taogu.
Qian was not surprised at all and had already gotten used to it. She took Manbao and sat in the yard waiting.
After placing the cart in position, Zhou Lang stood behind his mother, looking left and right curiously as the light came in.
Except for temple fairs, he rarely came to Taoist temples.
During the annual temple fair, they would burn incense in the first hall at most, and occasionally visit the second hall. It was impossible to visit the backyard of the third hall.
So he is not familiar with this place at all.
Temple Master Shouqing came over in a hurry. Qian quickly pulled Manbao to salute him, then pushed Manbao in front of him and said with a smile: "Master, look at our family Manbao's fortune this year."
Master Shouqing squinted at Man Bao, then reached out to touch her little hand, and smiled lightly with Qian: "Yes, this child is much stronger than before, Qian can feel at ease."
As expected, Mrs. Qian breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "In the past, the temple master said that the age of seven is a hurdle for full treasure. Once you cross the age of seven, your life will be smooth. I still don't believe it, but today it seems to be true."
Master Shouqing smiled, his mind was racing forward, and he was very confused. Did he say such a thing?
It doesn't sound like what he said. How could he have accurately determined the age of seven?
"In addition to letting viewers take a look at my little girl today, I also had a strange dream recently..."
Master Shouqing was refreshed. Interpreting dreams was his specialty. He smiled and said, "Come and listen to what the layman has to say."
"I have had this dream for several nights, starting from the night of the Double Ninth Festival..." Qian's fingers trembled slightly as she tugged at the corner of her clothes, but her face had a look of reminiscence, "The dream was all white, I remember
It’s not very real anymore. It seemed like there was a fairy-like person who told me that my time limit had come and asked me to go with him. But not long after, a kind-faced old man came and said that I had raised fairies and had worked hard, so he allowed me to do more.
How many years to live..."
The face of the Master Shouqing Temple was as usual, but his eyes couldn't help but glance at Qian's fingers, thinking deeply in his heart.
Zhoulang's eyes widened, while Manbao sat aside and listened with interest. Seeing that his mother had finished speaking, he asked again and again, "What happened next? What happened next?"
Mrs. Qian lowered his head and looked at her with pity, touched her little head and said: "Later, my mother's health was in and out. You forgot, my ex-mother was infected with cold and coughed so much that she couldn't even sleep.
I took it, but for some reason yesterday I suddenly had a huge appetite. I even ate several pancakes and didn’t cough much anymore.”
The master of Shouqing Temple was listening calmly, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but become more serious. He stretched out his hand and said, "Show me your hand, layman."
Qian smiled and stretched out his right hand.
Temple Master Shouqing had noticed her nervousness a long time ago. At first he thought she was lying, but now he was a little unsure and reached out to feel Qian's pulse.
Yes, the master of Shouqing Guan will take your pulse.
As a Taoist priest, how can he not know some medical skills?
The Taoist priests in the Taoist temple and the old doctors at the foot of the mountain are the biggest competitors. What the believers come to the mountain to seek is only wealth, well-being and children.
The former can't help Taoist priests who are eloquent. Usually, believers who donate rice, grains and eggs can return with satisfaction, whether they get good results or bad results.
The middle one and the latter are in the same aspect, both are about the body.
Since it's about the body, it's natural to be able to see, hear and ask about it, and you need to know some pharmacology.
Taoist priests also often go to the mountains to collect medicine, and sometimes give some medicine to believers.
With so many believers, why can Qian be respected as a layman by Taoist priests?
Because she is one of the most devout believers in these ten miles and eight villages. Not only is she devout when she goes up the mountain to worship the old man, but she is also very devout at the foot of the mountain. But six years ago, like most villagers, she only went to temple fairs or when her family was really sad.
Come up the mountain and pay your respects.
She became the most devout believer in the Taoist temple six years ago. At that time, she went to the Taoist temple with a handful of copper coins, a basket of rice and eggs to pray for Man Bao's life.
The prescription for Man Bao's medicine at that time was the most suitable prescription that was figured out by Master Shouqing and the old doctor together based on the prescriptions prescribed by the county doctor.
Even a bowl of egg water every day was thought up by Shouching Temple Master and the old doctor together.
After Manbao successfully lived past his first birthday, Qian invited a portrait of Taishang Laojun back to the Taoist temple, hung it in the room all year round, and paid homage to it morning and evening.
Therefore, Master Shouqing Guanzhu is not only familiar with Manbao's pulse condition, but also familiar with Qian's pulse condition.
After all, he is the most devout believer in Shiliba Village, so he deserves some preferential treatment. Every year, the master of Shouqing Temple will take Qian's pulse and check his physical condition.
So he discovered something was wrong at the first touch.
He looked up at Qian in surprise and carefully observed her face. Sure enough, he saw that her complexion looked better under her sallow face than before.
