Borrowing your life? If it were me in the past, I would have agreed if I had to, but now I would never consider extending my life. The reason is very simple. I don’t think my own life span is enough. The obsession in my heart is Kunlun, which is mine. Master, I don’t know how much time it will take to do such an ethereal thing. I cannot allow my life to be spent borrowing life from others.
Besides, in my heart I don't want to lend my life to this girl. It would just prolong her pain. This is my idea, and I certainly won't tell Master Liu.
So, after just a moment of silence, I said, "I'm going to the ghost market, what do you need me to do?"
As if he had anticipated my answer, Master Liu turned around and said, "Of course it's best to go to the ghost market. If someone else lends his life to my daughter, the reaction of rejection will still be huge. Look at her, now My body hurts when I fall asleep with such a thick quilt. I feel cold even when I’m covered with such a thick quilt. It’s better to change something back from the ghost market.”
Of course I know that longevity cannot be borrowed randomly. It is not bad for a father to give it to his daughter. After all, the fate between father and daughter is deeply entangled with cause and effect. This kind of sacrifice is not too contrary to the law of heaven. How can other people's lifespan be changed? Borrowed randomly? At least the eight-character horoscope is very particular, so that the adverse consequences of longevity can be eliminated to the greatest extent.
Although Master Liu does business here all year round, his contacts are all Taoist priests. Who among the Taoist priests doesn't know that if you lend 10 years of your life, you can only use it on others for 1 year at most? Putting this aside, the pursuit of a true Taoist is to be able to achieve metaphysics. If your own lifespan is not enough, how can you lend it to others
Or if you really have an emergency and have to borrow it, the range of choices is narrow, so how can Master Liu have any room to choose other people's horoscopes? That's why his daughter was turned into like this nine years later.
I guess he couldn't borrow it himself. He was 59 years old and looked even more waning than his old age. He lent it out and then died. What would happen to his daughter? It's painful to think about the consequences.
Finally, he would not dare to borrow the life of a stranger or an unwilling person. The retribution would be astonishing, unless he thought that he and his daughter would live as pigs and dogs for ten lifetimes without ever being able to turn around! Although these things are vague, they are taboo for Taoists.
Just like my master told me, you must have respect for all things to maintain your kindness, and you must have fear of all things to restrain your behavior.
I didn’t know what Master Liu wanted to exchange for, and my understanding of the ghost market only stopped at the scene many years ago, and some things the master told me, so I said: "Master Liu, there is no problem in going to the ghost market. , but I only know that the ghost market used to be at your doorstep, but now I don’t know where the ghost market is?”
When Master Liu heard what I said, there was an expression of surprise on his face. He was silent for a long time, and then he said: "Your master has protected you very well. I'm afraid you haven't really been in contact with anyone in the industry for so many years." Human right?"
I was stunned. What Master Liu said was true. Looking back on my more than 30 years, except for a few people in the department, except for our lineage, Uncle Hui, etc., I have really never been in contact with any circles. My wife is living quite a lonely life.
But is this also called protection
I suddenly felt that I had a lot to ask Master Liu, because I suddenly remembered a past event. Master Li once vaguely mentioned some rules in the circle in his office meeting, so this circle really does exist.
Because I wanted to ask too many questions, I really didn’t know where to ask for a while, but Master Liu stood up tremblingly and said: "That's it, that's all, let's go to my room to talk. Let's talk about it." You are half a fool. I hope your master will not blame me. We are here by fate and we each have our needs."
At this time, I walked over to support Master Liu, and finally couldn't help but ask: "Why does my master blame you?" I couldn't calm down when my master was mentioned, so I couldn't help asking this question urgently. .
Master Liu glanced at me, laughed strangely twice, and then said, "Let's talk about it when we go back to the house."
Finally, Master Liu and I sat down in that room again, still separated by the table, but the distance was undoubtedly much closer now. The more I talked with Master Liu, the more I felt that there were too many things that I needed to know. After sitting down, I didn't know what to say for a moment.
"What do you think of a Taoist priest?" Master Liu suddenly broke the silence and asked me an incomprehensible question.
What did I think the Taoist priest was? I really don’t know how to answer this question. Do I want to answer those who support justice? Well, if I would have answered this way before I was 10 years old, as for now, after having been in business for so many years, it’s really not the case.
But Master Liu didn't need my answer. He slowly tapped the table with his fingers and said: "What are Taoist priests? Before they attained Taoism and transcendence, they were all human beings. Human beings have complex human nature. So Taoist priests There are also people's advantages and disadvantages, so the circle of Taoist priests is also the circle of people. Since it is a circle of people, there must be good and bad. To put it more mysteriously, some people follow the right path, and some people follow the evil path. In short, the great road Three thousand are all Tao, as long as you attain the Tao. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Understood." I said with a heavy expression.
"It's good to understand. Your lineage is too righteous and you are walking the most righteous path. Your Taoist heart is also the most righteous Taoist heart. So, I told your master not to blame me for letting you come into contact with the circle. What is in the circle? Is there such a person? Metaphysically, metaphysically, this is too ethereal. It is always good to live a few more years. It is a very realistic goal. So the goal is there, is the means important? At least many people think it is not important. To put it simply , when you enter the circle, you will know that the true face of many Taoist priests is nothing more than this." Master Liu said lightly. After saying this, he suddenly laughed twice and said to me: "What do you think? Do I look like a gentleman like this? I'm afraid I'm worse than an ordinary upright person, right? Hehehe... "
I remained silent. Maybe Master really protected me too well. If it weren’t for my business experience in the past few years, I’m afraid Master Liu’s words today would be enough to overturn some of my worldviews, because I would be confused because of Master’s teachings. The Taoist heart mentioned is the Tao of all Taoist priests, and the Taoist heart of all Taoist priests.
Perhaps, this was Master's intention that year in hastily letting me float around in society for three years. Unfortunately, I spent my time in the Black Rock Miao Village. He always said he didn't have enough time. At that time, his decision was that he didn't have enough time. The apprentice was still so immature.
"I'm not as fragile as you think. What other people say cannot affect me." I finally said this.
"I hope so. You are all the same. You should think carefully before saying these words. I want you to go to the ghost market. If you can't avoid it, you will come into contact with the circle. I still have to give you a vaccination, isn't it? ? You ask me where the ghost market is? There used to be that one at my door. Is it called the ghost market?" After Master Liu finished speaking, he grinned again, and the smile looked a little weird.
"Isn't that called a ghost market?" I suddenly felt like I was an idiot and didn't understand anything.
"What is the real ghost market called a transaction between ordinary people and ordinary ghosts? In my opinion, it is just a little trick where some people pray to Buddha and some people pray to ghosts. I think your master is also well aware of it. People in our circle The ghost market is a ghost market. As long as you can afford the price, you can almost find what you want, and wealth is not a dream. Doesn't it feel mysterious?" Master Liu leaned forward, and his eyes were burning. He stared at me like a witch in a fairy tale holding a poison apple to tempt people.
My heart beat violently. I found what I wanted. Can I also find clues to Kunlun
"Don't play Kunlun's mind, the ghost market is not omnipotent." Master Liu seemed to have seen through what I was thinking.
I swallowed my saliva and said, "It's very mysterious. Where is the ghost market?" Is it still in Tianjin
"Where? There is no fixed place, but it must be a remote place far away from human habitation. Let's see the news then. You are lucky. The ghost market opens once every six months. It has been more than 5 months and it will open next month. There will be a ghost market with insiders, so you don’t have to wait too long.” Master Liu said calmly.
It turns out that there is no fixed place. No wonder ordinary people don't know that there is such a ghost market. I have some expectations in my heart, but I don't know what I am expecting.
At this time, the weird woman whom Master Liu called Qiqi entered the room.
