It's not some delicacies or delicacies, just very ordinary three dishes and one soup.
The servants were called off, and the father and son sat on the table.
As a daily meal, it doesn't matter whether there are guests visiting. In fact, three dishes and one soup were considered to be eaten by the wealthy class in ancient times, not to mention that two of the dishes were meat.
If they really made too much, logically speaking, the father and son wouldn't be able to finish the meal. They're not emperors, so how could they be so extravagant and wasteful?
Mrs. Ye looked at Ye Bizhen, who was scolding Wangcai and picking up food for him, and said, "By the way, dad, you don't care about us reading banned books. Why did "Qingtian Dashengzhi" make you have such a big reaction?"
Ye Bizhen looked at him, frowned and said: "Ask me, who should I ask? In fact, there are banned books in all dynasties and generations. Although it is explicitly prohibited, there are still many private collections among the people, and there are not very heavy criminal laws, but private
According to the law, you will lose your head if you hide and spread the "Qingtian Great Sage". You are not allowed to be curious about it, just pretend that there is no such book at all!"
Ye Tai said strangely: "I'm just curious about what kind of content can make the court ban it so vigorously. Dad, to be honest, have you seen it?"
Hearing this, Ye Bizhen glanced around and whispered: "I am responsible for searching and burning banned books in Guangxiu County. Naturally, I have read it. It is a wonderful anecdote. It tells the story of the ancient green dragon, which turned into a demon when it fell from grass.
Saint, the story that finally angered all the gods and Buddhas in the sky. The ending is a bit confusing. It is said that the Great Sage Qingtian was surrounded by gods and Buddhas, and after overpowering Uncle Buddha and the heavenly soldiers and generals, he disappeared into the world. The story roughly goes like this:
, no one knows where the Great Sage Qingtian has gone, but he is already in our hearts.
The content of "The Fall of Grass Turns into a Monster" and "Fighting Against Heaven and Earth" can barely be considered a banned book, but why the investigation is so strict is unknown.
I am telling you the content of this book just to stop you from being curious. It is just such a fantasy story and nothing else."
Mrs. Ye nodded thoughtfully, without going into details, and said, "By the way, dad, you just said you had something to tell us. What is it?"
Ye Bizhen cleared his throat and said: "Don't you have to wait two months before going to Beijing to take part in the examination? I asked the madman from the north of our Guangxiu County to tell your fortune."
What did Mrs. Ye think was wrong, but she was such a cheap dad and still had such superstitious beliefs? Why did she need someone else to tell her fortune?
Although my divination ability is terrible, it is for the great immortals. If you are just a mortal, even an emperor, you can probably tell which day he will have good luck and which day he will have bad luck.
Ordinary people often say that heaven's secrets cannot be leaked. In fact, it means that Taoism cannot suppress the involvement of cause and effect, and it may backfire on one's body.
When the great immortals target human beings, as long as they are not at the level of emperors, they have actually revealed the secrets of heaven, and the little bit of cause and effect is actually nothing.
Ye Taidao: "Okay, Dad, I still have some confidence. Compared with ghosts and gods, children sometimes believe in their own abilities more."
"What do you know?"
Ye Bizhen glared and said: "You don't know about the madman in the north of the city? Although he is crazy, he will tell fortunes for the destined people every quarter, and he has never failed!
Ten years ago, he changed his fate and helped Mr. Li's head to be connected. Now Mr. Li is still alive and kicking, and he even took a concubine two days ago.
Do you know how much effort I put into letting the old madman tell you your fortune?"
Mrs. Ye still didn't take it seriously and said: "After calculating the result, maybe it's not a good thing."
Ye Bizhen looked like he hated iron and said: "Did you know that when I was young, the old madman looked like that? After all these years, he hasn't aged at all!
Before I went to Beijing to take the exam, I met him on the road. He grabbed me madly and said frankly that the last question in the exam would change my life.
What's the result?
As a result, the entire examination was about a failure. Your father failed to get into the top three because of his poor performance on the last question. During the palace examination, he did not let the emperor and ministers take a second look. Then he returned to his hometown and gave birth to the two of you.
Unworthy."
Mrs. Ye became a little more interested now. According to his understanding, the imperial examination was a general trend for selecting talents from the human race, which was favored by luck. The free Wenqu Xingjun was protected by the gods and Buddhas in the sky.
Ordinary alchemist, let alone miss the question, you can't even take a look!
Even if you are a golden immortal level boss, you can forcibly see the test questions, but if you dare to leak it, cause and effect will come to you.
The imperial examination room can be said to be a place where ghosts and gods make changes, and the higher the fame of those candidates, they will naturally be protected by the righteousness of heaven and earth, making it difficult for them to be murdered.
This is also one of the reasons why the human race can prosper. There is God's cause and effect behind them.
Otherwise, wouldn't the civil and military forces of this dynasty have long been occupied by demons and demons?
After becoming interested, Mrs. Ye directly used her spiritual thoughts to check the old madman's deeds in Ye Bizhen's mind.
This investigation really surprised him.
A strange man indeed.
The young master of the Li family that Ye Bizhen was talking about and Ye Qing, the identity of Wangcai, were relatively close to each other. They were both misbehaving and domineering young masters.
However, the Young Master of the Li family, because he was usually too arrogant and had no taboos, actually secretly hid a copy of the Qingtian Great Sage.
Not only was it kept secretly, but it was also spread among the young master's circle. Ye Qing did not participate in this matter because he had been mentored by Ye Bizhen since he was a child.
Later, the incident was spread by a certain young man who got drunk, and people from above came to hold him accountable, and almost even Ye Bizhen was implicated.
In the end, the young master of the Li family was sentenced to death. He burst into tears that day, was put on the execution ground, and had his head chopped off.
However, I don’t know if it was because the executioner was in poor condition that day. After one blow, the head did not fall off, but there was still a trace of flesh and skin connected to the body at the throat.
The Li family members took his body back and sewed his head with only a strand of flesh and skin attached.
Originally, I just wanted to give the Li family's legitimate son a complete corpse, but that day I invited an old lunatic from the north of the city to save Mr. Li.
Without saying a word, the old madman stepped forward, lit a handful of incense, and burned it around Mr. Li's neck.
All he could see was that the wounds that were originally full of flesh and blood gave birth to scars and flesh cocoons. Then, without saying anything, the old madman turned around and walked away, unable to hold him back.
The Li family was feeling sad when they suddenly heard Mr. Li, who had lost his head, murmuring.
Shocked, I turned around and saw Mr. Li, who was supposed to be dead, opening his eyes in confusion, muttering that he was hungry and wanted to eat.
The Li family fed him day by day. A month later, Mr. Li, who lost his head and was sutured back, gradually regained his energy and came back to life!
Except for the hard-to-disguise circular scar on his neck, he looks like a normal person!
Resurrection from the dead is a person's skill. When the people above knew it, they no longer made trouble for Young Master Li. They just gave him a stern warning not to keep forbidden books privately, and then the matter was settled.
Now Mr. Li, Mrs. Ye's spiritual sense detected that he was drinking flower wine in the flower house with his friends, just like a normal person.
Therefore, what Ye Bizhen said about changing one's destiny against nature is actually not an exaggeration.
Old madman...
Ye Tai swept his mind again and noticed somewhere in the north of the city, a crazy middle-aged man in tattered clothes, sometimes talking to himself, sometimes furious, sometimes dull and lifeless. Passers-by on the street all looked at him.
Respectful eyes.
Some people came up to strike up a conversation, but the old madman ignored them, or started to fight directly. This led to passers-by being in awe of him and not daring to go beyond the distance.
Mrs. Ye withdrew her spiritual thoughts and said to Ye Bizhen: "Okay, you can let him come at any time, and I can also meet this strange man."
Ye Bizhen glanced at him and said: "How proud do you think your father is? You want me to come at any time? They said they will come to your door within two days, so just wait!"
Mrs. Ye was noncommittal.
Ye Bizhen said again: "By the way, when you go to Beijing to take part in the examination, there is one more thing you should pay attention to, that is, if you encounter any temptations on the way, you should watch your nose, nose and mouth, and your mouth and heart. Don't act rashly or answer easily.
Every year on the way to the exam, there are weak-willed candidates who are persecuted by ghosts and monsters. When they are found, they have become mummies, or they have disappeared without a trace.
Certain obscene things like to seduce candidates, and Heaven and Earth Zhengqi and Wenqu Xingjun will not protect those who are weak-minded!
But as long as you don't waver and have your identity as a candidate, you will be immune to ghosts and gods.
In addition, we are located in the northwest, and it seems that we are far away from the important land of Gyeonggi. But as long as you reach the designated place, there will be a mysterious man from Gyeonggi who will take you on the journey. When you recover, you will be there.
Don’t talk casually, don’t be disrespectful to Xuanshi, don’t think wildly, don’t…”
