After Lao Bai walked away, I quietly leaned towards Grandpa and said, "Grandpa, is it really because Lao Bai is too fat that you refused to accept him as your disciple?"
"That's bullshit!" Grandpa curled his lips, "That's all what I fooled him about. I just made it up casually about maintaining a calm Taoist heart. When you were a child, you were a typical carnivorous person.
It doesn’t work without meat. And you secretly read those movies and pornographic magazines behind my back, so why don’t I still teach you Maoshan Taoism?”
I blushed, but still said stubbornly, "You're talking nonsense, I didn't read those things!"
Grandpa sneered, "Okay, stop pretending, kid. Do you think I don't know about the things you hide under the bed? Every time I pass by your room, I can hear, 'Macau's first online casino is online!'
'At first, I thought you were gambling secretly on the Internet behind my back! Later I found out you were watching that kind of movie."
If there is a crack in the ground now, I will get into it without hesitation. If there is a piece of tofu in front of me, I will hit it without hesitation.
I didn't want to dwell on this topic any longer, so I quickly changed the subject, "Grandpa, since Maoshan has no regulations in this regard and Lao Bai has helped me many times, why don't you want to teach Lao Bai Maoshan Taoism?"
"Where do I have time?" Grandpa shook his hand. "That guy Ito Saji has been running around, looking for a way to restore his strength. Your uncle Sanlong has been tracking his traces, and I have not
In my spare time, I have been looking for the whereabouts of the remaining Japanese ghost soldiers. Now you may not be able to see me often, how can I teach him Maoshan Taoism!"
Then grandpa added, "And I didn't lie to him one thing, that is, he was indeed contaminated by too much dust. Think about the pain you suffered when you were learning Maoshan Taoism. You had to get up early every morning and take the trouble to do it over and over again."
Drawing all kinds of yellow symbols, do you think he can persevere?"
After careful analysis, my grandpa was right. Learning Maoshan Taoism is indeed a very difficult task. I almost didn't persist at the beginning. If it weren't for the huge pressure on me, I would have given up long ago.
Already.
Then grandpa changed the topic and stopped discussing Lao Bai's affairs with me. "When we came here, I heard that you were going to Shonan. What were you doing there? Are you going to travel or do something else?"
I didn’t have any secrets from my grandfather, so I told him everything about the ghost child without reservation.
After listening to this, grandpa frowned.
"What's wrong, Grandpa, don't you agree with what I'm doing?" I felt a little uneasy.
"No." Grandpa shook his head, and then breathed a sigh of relief, "You are no longer a child. Although I am your closest relative, I cannot always make choices for you. You need to make the decision in your life, but
After all, Grandpa is a person who has been there, and I still have a lot of life experience to tell you. That is, you can make any choice without asking for anyone's opinion, but before making these choices, you must think about the consequences.
consequences, do you understand what I mean?"
I nodded, "I understand what you mean, but I really want to help Guizi find out how he died, and I'm worried that Guizi's incident is not an accident. Someone is plotting something secretly. Then
This is just the beginning."
Grandpa smiled and said, "I said, you can make any choice without asking for other people's opinions. Just do what you think is right."
Then grandpa quickened his pace and walked to the front, leaving me alone at the back, thinking about what he said to me.
After returning to Li Sanqiang's home, Li Sanqiang couldn't wait to greet us and asked us if the Hanbao had been eliminated.
When he learned that Hanbao had been burned to ashes and that it would rain here in ten days, he was very happy and jumped up with excitement.
He repeatedly asked us to stay with him for a few more days, but Grandpa said that he had other things to do and had to leave immediately, and the things here were almost settled, and I had to prepare for going to Shonan.
So after returning to Li Sanqiang's house, we really rested for a while, and then we all left Leijiazhuang.
I originally wanted grandpa to go back to Dongcheng City with us, but grandpa refused and insisted on going alone.
I had no choice but to cancel this plan.
Finally, before we left, Li Sanqiang also prepared a lot of local specialties for us, but the local specialties are nothing more than corn, salted duck eggs and other small things, but in any case, this is also Li Sanqiang's intention.
It's better to collect them all and put them in Lao Bai's trunk.
"After Dongfang arrives in Dongcheng City, will you go back to Zhaojiacun or to school?"
I thought for a while, "I'm going to your house. I plan to leave for Shonan tomorrow. I'll get there today and ask about the ghost child's specific situation."
Lao Bai nodded to me, "Don't worry about your luggage, just leave it all to me. I've prepared the tent, flashlight, various tools, Red Bull, Snickers and other things. You just need to bring someone with you on time."
Just get in my car."
Although Lao Bai and I have just met, I basically have a clear understanding of his style of dealing with people, and his handling of things is quite reassuring."
Then Lao Bai suggested that since we were going to set off tomorrow, we could stay at his house tonight and call Loach to save us from having to gather together one by one when we arrive.
After arriving at Lao Bai's house, I asked Lao Bai to open his locked door. I wanted to see the ghost child.
After Lao Bai helped me open the lock, he hid far away, as if a ghost child might rush out from inside at any time and eat him.
I walked slowly into the bedroom. The most conspicuous thing in the bedroom was the huanghuali cabinet. Compared with the last time, the huanghuali cabinet had not changed much.
Because I knew that the ghost child was in the Huanghuali cabinet, I cleared my throat and said directly, "I plan to leave for Shonan tomorrow. You said you grew up in a small mountain village in Shonan. What kind of small mountain village is it?
, please tell me clearly so that we don’t get lost when we go there.”
After I finished speaking, my eyes were fixed on the huanghuali cabinet.
The Huanghuali cabinet began to undergo some changes. The door that had been closed opened by itself, and then a figure slowly appeared in front of the Huanghuali cabinet.
