Xie Lingya was joking, but Liu Yunyun had a dream the next night, dreaming that his grandfather Zhu Chengmei was.
Zhu Chengmei wore the new clothes that Liu Yunyun burned for him last night, smiled lovingly, and said, "I didn't want to dream of you before. You didn't like these things, and I was afraid of scaring you."
Liu Yunyun cried again in the dream.
Zhu Chengmei said, "It's alright, but I've been hungry for a few years. Didn't I feel full last night? It's because of you that you burned a lot of things."
Liu Yunyun cried and said, "Grandpa, how are you doing down there?"
"I'm queuing up to be reincarnated. I inquired about it. It's very likely that I will be reincarnated again." Zhu Chengmei shook his head and said, "Grandpa will try to reincarnate as soon as possible, maybe we can meet again in this world."
Liu Yunyun burst into tears and laughed, "Really?"
Zhu Chengmei said with a smile: "Really, don't let the boy from Wang Yuji's family do a dojo for me. After doing a dojo, they extradited me to the sky. I just want to re-enter the world."
"I can't talk for too long, Yun Yun, you found a booklet in the box where I kept the old things. It was my notes for studying Lushan Fa during my lifetime. Give this to Xie Lingya." Zhu Chengmei said, "Tell him, I've been looking for this all my life and can't find a successor, so I'll keep it there, so I'll give it to him as a reward."
Liu Yunyun nodded, and seized the time to say a few words to Zhu Chengmei. When he woke up, he found that his face was covered in tears.
Liu Yunyun thought of the words of his grandfather in the dream, and went back to the old house to look for it. Sure enough, in a box, he saw the booklet at the bottom, and there were some other magic tools.
So, Liu Yunyun and Huang Bin moved things to Baoyang Temple together, handed them over to Xie Lingya, and told his grandfather's words.
Xie Lingya took Zhu Chengmei's booklet to learn Lushan Fa, and felt a lot of pressure, and said, "The elders gave it, I dare not say no. Although Mr. Zhu said it was for me, I only did it part-time, but I will look for it in the Taoist sect in the future. The right person will pass down the Lushan Fa, so that his hard work will not be wasted."
He admired Zhu Chengmei's virtue, especially seeing the shadow of his uncle in Zhu Chengmei.
"Thank you." Liu Yunyun was very moved. Grandpa had already given up, but Xie Lingya took the initiative to promise that although he was a part-timer, he would pass it on to others in the future.
"I will also set up a tablet in the temple, so that the old man can enjoy the incense with the previous patriarchs every day." Xie Lingya said.
Liu Yunyun is now very concerned about these things behind him, and asked: "Teacher Xie, you said, if some of my ancestors have the same merits and virtues as my grandfather and have already gone to reincarnation, then the sacrifices I will burn...?"
She decided that she would sacrifice ancestors of all dynasties on every New Year's festival in the future, and also burn some offerings for those Yin soldiers, but because she didn't understand, she couldn't help but have some doubts.
"Because many people don't know where their ancestors are, they all hold the premise that they have not yet reincarnated. If he is still there, he can live better. For us, it is also a way to mourn."
Xie Lingya thought for a while and said, "Someone once felt food in their mouths in their sleep, and the fragrance still lingers after waking up. After asking the Master, he knew that it was his relatives in the previous life who were still offering sacrifices to him. Because of his strong beliefs, he still felt it. Although he had no memory of his previous life, he couldn't help but feel very moved. After so many years, the sacrifices have not been interrupted. Later, according to the vague scene in the dream, he found someone from the previous life and gave him a gift. This is the continuation of the front. "
Liu Yunyun thought of his grandfather's joke, saying that maybe he was reincarnated early and could meet again. At this time, Xie Lingya's words seemed to confirm it, and there was a trace of excitement, "Thank you, I understand."
Xie Lingya offered Zhu Chengmei's tablet and called him "Mr.". Although the two did not have the name of master and apprentice, and had never even met, Zhu Chengmei gave Xie Lingya Lushan Fa, and it was not an exaggeration to call him "Mr.".
Lushan Fa has a lot of research on all kinds of goblins and ghosts. They invite soldiers and horses from the Three Realms and Five Battalions, that is, whether they are heaven soldiers, Yin soldiers, or demon soldiers. There are many rituals in this regard.
Xie Lingya looked at it and said, "Well, in this way, the relationship between me and Ding Aima is very similar, it's just a verbal agreement, no oath. Look, I'll give them incense, and they usually help me too. Patrol…”
Zhang Daoting asked him, "That Ding Aima, maybe he's willing to be a shadow soldier all the time."
"Yeah." Xie Lingya said, he has already inquired about it. When you go overboard, there is no pain, it's just to wash away your guilt.
Moreover, if the mage's mana is sufficient, he can even be extradited to the heaven to enjoy the joy in the Dongji Miaoyan Palace.
This is another good place besides reincarnation, but unfortunately not everyone can succeed.
If you go to the six realms of reincarnation, not every dead soul can be reincarnated after death. If there is no merit, it is very likely that he will be a dog or an ant in the next life. What about the team of the year
Ding Aima listened and shook his head, "Teacher Xie, I listened to you about the rituals. At this time of transcendence, I will finally preach enlightenment to the dead souls, and then the dead souls go to live in some Taoist palace, that's not to abide by. The precepts of Taoism, and there is no entertainment in the world."
Xie Lingya: "...why, haven't you watched enough free movies yet?"
Ding Aima: "… "
Ding Aima really admitted: "It can be seen for a while."
Xie Lingya had nothing to do with him, and each ghost had his own aspirations. Like Qin Limin, he just wanted to reincarnate and eat more delicious food in the next life.
Ding Aima said: "Well, Teacher Xie, if you have a granddaughter in the future, I won't share your incense, I will help you protect her..."
Xie Lingya said straight: "Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you!"
On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Guanzhong finally became less lively. Many people returned to work on the eighth day of the first month. By this time, the students were about to start school.
According to Xie Lingya's statistics, in this blessing event, they sent out thousands of blessing characters every day, and the total number is very considerable.
He was doing the accounting that day, and he saw a family of three coming into the Taoist temple for the legal supplies that he consumed that day, "Is there a Taoist master here?"
The other Taoist priests were all receiving believers, and the volunteer lay monks were also busy. Xie Lingya watched by the way and replied, "I'm busy. You can wait or come later."
"Oh, then..." the family asked, "Is it still possible to sign up for the lantern offering tonight?"
"It's closed for registration." Xie Lingya said, this Shangyuan Dharma Conference is to prepare the sparse texts, butter lamps, etc. of the registered believers in advance.
The couple is very young, leading a little girl of seven or eight years old. The mother has a bracelet on her hand, the middle is a rope like a telephone line, and the other end is connected to the little girl's hand. scattered. But the little girl has been obediently bowing her head and following her mother step by step, it doesn't look like she will run around.
The father said, "Can you be accommodating? We only heard that the Fa meeting of Baoyang Temple is very effective, and money is not a problem."
"It's nothing, 200 yuan a piece, the same price, there should be a lot of lights." Xie Lingya said. In fact, he organized the preparations, and when he came back, he went to add a lamp and wrote sparse essays.
The couple breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Two hundred yuan? Isn't there anything more expensive?"
Xie Lingya laughed and said, "How expensive do you want?"
The husband embarrassed: "I saw other Taoist temples before, and there were 18,100..."
"Is it inlaid with gold?" Xie Lingya asked without hesitation, "We don't have it here."
The two of them looked at each other, "Okay, little brother, please give us a supplement."
"Well, come here at 8 o'clock tonight." Xie Lingya went through the formalities for them. Looking at the registered names, it turned out that the man's name was Qi Liang, the woman's name was Meng Siyu, and the daughter's name was Qi Xiaomei.
Xie Lingya looked at their daughter a few more times as she spoke, and always felt that this kid Qi Xiaomei was a little dull, not as lively as other children of this age.
"By the way, little brother, where can I ask for a talisman? We want to ask for another talisman." Qi Liang and his wife said.
"The talismans are sold out." The supply of spiritual talismans is in short supply at this time of the Chinese New Year, and neither he nor Fang Che can draw them, especially Fang Che who can't draw spiritual ancestral amulets.
"No?" They were disappointed.
"Wait, I'll go to the Taoist priest to draw a picture." Xie Lingya always felt that their daughter didn't look right, and was not sure for a while, so he put down the ledger, went to the backyard, picked up a brush and drew a picture, and then took it out .
When the couple saw it, the cinnabar imprint was not done, it was really freshly painted!
Meng Siyu was outspoken and asked, "Is there something wrong with the Taoist priest?"
Xie Lingya smiled: "Yes, I took the time to paint while doing things."
"Oh... Okay, thank you, please thank the Taoist priest for us." The two paid the money again, dried the talisman, folded it, and told their daughter to take it.
Xie Lingya was thinking about how to ask, because he just felt something was wrong, but he couldn't recognize it. It would be great if Shi Changxuan was there. But at this time, Xie Lingya saw his daughter's hand sticking out from the thick cotton coat and wiped her nose.
I saw a few bruises and bruises on the white and tender little hands.
Xie Lingya stared at the bruise, "What's going on?"
Qi Liang and Meng Siyu looked very unnatural, with a look of hesitating to speak.
At this time, Zhang Daoting was finally done. He came to the front and saw them, "What's the matter? Hey, what happened to the little girl's hand, did she fall?"
"Daoist." When they saw Zhang Daoting, they were willing to say, "My daughter has encountered some strange things recently."
Xie Lingya sat down beside him and listened to them with his face supported.
Qi Liang glanced at him, saw that the Taoist priest didn't say anything, and said, "At first, one night, my daughter's toy slipped under the sofa, and she stretched out her hand to get it. As a result, she felt that a hand was holding her and wouldn't let go. At that time, my daughter was crying and screaming. My wife and I came over and pulled her out together. Then we used the mop and stick to stab her under the ground, but nothing happened. It took a lot of effort to pull her out - I almost dislocated my hand. ."
It also left bruises on his hands.
Zhang Daoting's scalp was about to explode when he heard it, so it's hard to say. Zhang Daoting felt that he was about to leave a shadow. Who has no experience of dropping things under the sofa. When he thought of groping under the dark furniture where his eyes could not see, suddenly a hand grabbed his hand and tried hard. pull!
- Zhang Daoting could almost feel the tense atmosphere, very much hope that Xie Lingya can stand up and say something to spoil the atmosphere.
But at this time, the little girl who had been dazed heard her father's words, and her face immediately showed fear.
Meng Siyu hurried to hold the little girl's wrist, but the little girl immediately shook it off as if she had been electrocuted.
Her mother's hand was a little icy, which reminded her of the night when she reached under the dark sofa and was grabbed by an invisible, cold hand, and she refused to let go...
Qi Liang immediately came to his senses, regretting that he had mentioned it in front of his daughter, and asked Meng Siyu to take Qi Xiaomei out.
Only then did Xie Lingya know why they only tied her daughter's hand with a rope, winked at Zhang Daoting, and followed out. Just now the couple thought he was a volunteer or something, so let Zhang Daoting explain, he said it might work.
Xie Lingya picked a flower from a pot in the yard and put it in Qi Xiaomei's hand.
Qi Xiaomei glanced at him and took the flower timidly.
"Thank you, little brother." Meng Siyu forced a smile at him.
Xie Lingya clapped his hand with the official tactic and patted Qi Xiaomei's back a few times. At that time, the little girl felt that the coolness on her body was dispelled by a burst of warmth, and the fear entangled in her heart also faded a lot.
Qi Xiaomei stretched out her hand and hugged Xie Lingya's arm.
Meng Siyu looked at Xie Lingya in surprise. Since her daughter encountered that incident, it has been difficult for even them to get close.
"It's fine." Xie Lingya took Qi Xiaomei's hand and looked at it again, and took out some ointment. This was made by Hai Guanchao himself. He slowly rubbed the medicine on Qi Xiaomei, and Qi Xiaomei's expression became more and more relaxed. .
Inside, Zhang Daoting and Qi Liang were talking all the time, but outside Xie Lingya silently comforted Qi Xiaomei, and by the way, gave Qi Xiaomei a pulse, and calculated it with the Taisu pulse method.
When Qi Liang and the two came out of the hall, Qi Xiaomei was already supported by Xie Lingya to step on the flower bed to play, with a long-lost smile on her face.
Qi Liang also showed a surprised look, and looked at Meng Siyu, "Zhang Daochang said that he would invite his senior brother to go out..."
It was just him and Zhang Daoting who were inside just now. As soon as he said it, Zhang Daoting shivered with fright, causing him to look puzzled. Before he could recall his fear, Zhang Daoting was afraid first.
Then Zhang Daoting quickly explained that there is a specialization in the surgery industry, and his senior brother specializes in this, which is the one that went out just now.
Qi Liang just didn't expect that they mistook it for this little brother who was doing chores, and the effect was so fast, Qi Xiaomei's spirit was much better.
"It's this one, this is my senior brother." Zhang Daoting said quickly, reaching out to Xie Lingya.
Meng Siyu: "..."
She thought this little brother was doing odd jobs, but she didn't expect it to be a professional, but she didn't know why she didn't dress up as a Taoist priest. Meng Siyu felt that it was no wonder that he had a few words with his daughter, and her daughter immediately improved a lot.
"I was rude just now, Master, thank you." Meng Siyu said hurriedly.
Xie Lingya shook his head, "Nothing."
He didn't talk about his catching ghosts everywhere, people who knew it would just understand, so he avoided drawing talismans. Later, when I saw that Qi Xiaomei was frightened, I came out first to appease it, Zhang Daoting would explain anyway.
Zhang Daoting gave Xie Lingya a summary. After that night, Qi Xiaomei often encountered such things at night. As long as it was a dark corner, it seemed that a cold hand would pull her at any time.
Under the bed, under the dining table, the hand seemed to be everywhere. The bruises on Qi Xiaomei's hands are also getting heavier.
Qi Liang and Meng Siyu didn't dare to let her stay alone. The lights in the house were turned on at night, and then they went everywhere to ask the gods to ask the Buddha. They had already invited the monk to perform a ritual once, and they went to Baoyang Temple again today.
Xie Lingya asked Qi Xiaomei's birth date and guessed it by himself. Shi Changxuan was not there, so he tried to ask, "Is your house... a new move?"
"No, our family's old house." Qi Liang said, "My mother-in-law left it to my wife. Because the child is going to school, I renovated it and moved back."
"That's the ground breaking, right?" Xie Lingya was even more certain. He had counted Qi Xiaomei's life, and the variable should be related to the soil.
"Yes! Let's redo the patio!" Qi Liang almost broke his voice, "You mean there is something wrong with the house?"
Qi Xiaomei was taken by Zhang Daoting to drink water, Meng Siyu untied the rope and stood aside, and said at this time: "My grandmother told me before that things will become fine when they get old, is it something old in our family? It's my family's Wooden basin, or my rolling pin??"
In her memory, these are things that have been around for a long time, since she was there when she was a child.
"The old object may have spirituality, but this time it should have woken up the underground corpse. The patio, I'll take a look at the photos." Xie Lingya looked at the patio they had renovated and said, "The patio is too big and the area is too large. The wind gathers water, and it's uncomfortable to lie down." He remembered something, "Yes, dragging your daughter's hand, it all appeared from below."
Both Qi Liang and Meng Siyu felt like they wanted to faint, especially Meng Siyu, who had lived there since she was a child, "Well, are there bones in the ground?"
"Don't be afraid, human beings have developed for so many years, and many places have corpses underground, it's just the difference between buried deep or shallow. Your home may be right on the burial ground of other people's bones, and the ground has changed a little, and the deceased is buried. I woke up, this... how can I say it, people may have lived there longer." So Xie Lingya couldn't say who was at fault, "And this should just be a reminder, otherwise, you won't be able to drag your daughter back. "
Then there is the child's weak yang qi, so he chose Qi Xiaomei to start.
Xie Lingya was so comforted, Qi Liang and Meng Siyu didn't think it was much better, they looked at Xie Lingya bitterly: "Master, what should I do now, change the house back?"
"Wait for me." Xie Lingya said, turned his back and started checking his phone.
Qi Liang and Meng Siyu: "??"
Why did you suddenly start playing with your phone
Zhang Daoting quickly diverted the topic: "Maybe someone is looking for it, my senior brother is very busy."
I have been busy preparing for the re-examination of the postgraduate entrance examination recently... I will go to the re-examination in a few days.
After a while, Xie Lingya turned around confidently, "When I go to your house, find out where the corpse is buried, dig it up and bury it, and then there will be no future troubles."
When Qi Liang and his wife didn't notice, Zhang Daoting wiped his sweat.
…
Xie Lingya went to Qi Liang's house and used the technique of locating acupoints to determine the specific burial site. It was a corner of Qi Liang's bedroom. From this place, he dug four or five meters down, and sure enough, a white bone came out, and the soil was very moist. .
The old house of Meng Siyu's house was only one meter in foundation when it was built.
Xie Lingya wiped the bones clean one by one with white wine and yellow watch paper, then put them into a container, recited a few death-saving mantras, and asked Qi Liang to find a cemetery for burial. These days, buying a cemetery also costs money, but for Qi Liang and his family, spending money to eliminate disasters.
Including such a big hole dug in his bedroom, it has to be renovated after backfilling.
At this time, the time for the Shangyuan Dharma Conference had already passed, but Xie Lingya had written them a sparse text before, so he just had to let the Taoist priest take their place.
Xie Lingya looked at Qi Liang uneasy, and knew in his heart, "Forget it, I'll bring back the Taoist Conception Sutra first. When you want to bury it, I'll take it back."
Qi Liang was so grateful that he had to wait until dawn to find the cemetery. He really didn't dare to share a room with this corpse.
"Actually, you two lived upstairs and downstairs before, and you've always been in peace with each other." Xie Lingya said with a smile.
Qi Liang: "..."
Qi Liang bit the bullet and said, "Don't talk about it, I almost don't dare to live here."
"The family is about to move, don't be afraid." Xie Lingya said, "I also provided a lamp today. Tonight on the New Year's Day, the heaven officials will bless you, and your family will be safe and sound."
"Borrowing your auspicious words." Qi Liang finally felt a little more comfortable.
Xie Lingya said goodbye to them, and Qi Xiaomei held him reluctantly.
"Apply the medicine on your hands." Xie Lingya touched Qi Xiaomei's head.
…
It was past eleven o'clock in the evening when Xie Lingya returned to Baoyang Temple. There were many lanterns hanging on the pedestrian street, which was a traditional custom.
On the Shangyuan Festival, the heavenly officials rejoice, so they light up the lamps.
There are red lanterns hanging in the street market, with a hint of New Year's joy lingering, and there are also oil lamps in the Taoist temple, which complement the stars in the sky. The offering of lamps makes one's own wisdom lamp always shine, and the blessings are profound.
Xie Lingya stepped into the door, but the door was only closed. He pushed open the door and saw that the table in the courtyard was dotted with stars, and the light was on for seven days and nights, so it was confiscated after the puja.
At this time, the lights dimmed and dimly illuminated the shadow of a figure who was chanting sutras.
Xie Lingya vaguely recognized it, and coughed: "Is it the little cutie and the little cutie's master coming back?"
It was so late after finishing the ritual, and when he came back and saw that the door was not closed, he was independent, there was a feeling that someone was still waiting for him to go home, and he smiled uncontrollably.
Shi Changxuan raised his head abruptly, just in time to see Xie Lingya standing in the same place and smiling at him, with a pair of lying silkworm smiling eyes, extremely vivid, and it was unclear whether the eyes were full of stars or a courtyard burning lamps.
He didn't know how to speak for a while.
…
A few years later, Shang Lushen recalled it and said with his arms crossed, "Ben lovely then read a poem!"
Suddenly looking back, the man was in the dim light.
