I agreed with a smile, and chatted with the driver in a joke, and I arrived at the place soon.
After paying the fare quickly, watching the car leave in a hurry, I rushed up the mountain with my things and found the old Taoist priest.
Seeing me, the old Taoist shivered with his white beard and he was amused: "Just thinking about whether to call you, you guy ran over by yourself, come in, come in and do it."
I followed the old Taoist into the house, I put things on the table casually, turned my head and said to the old Taoist: "Master, I'm here to ask you for help, please help me analyze and analyze." Then I left the old Taoist. I quickly said aside. When I said that I had sillyly agreed to the deal with the ghost in red, I bowed my head with a guilty conscience.
After a while, without waiting for the old Taoist's response, I secretly raised my head and glanced at the old Taoist, only to find that his brows were tightened, and one hand was unconsciously stroking his white beard, apparently lost in deep thought. .
I didn't dare to move, for fear of disturbing the old Taoist's thoughts, even my breathing slowed down subconsciously. After a while, the old Taoist seemed to come back from deep thought, stretched out his arms, and turned his head to look around.
"How about Master, did you guess what?" I immediately leaned forward hopefully.
The old Taoist shook his head suddenly: "No, I don't understand the old Tao this time."
I lowered my head in frustration. I sighed and scratched my hair anxiously. What should I do next
After that, my wrist was grabbed, and I subconsciously shook my hand. After breaking my wrist free, I realized what I had done, and the whole person was a little startled at the moment.
"Hou San, your current mood is a little wrong, you may not be able to cope with future things, take a rest, and wait until I show you something tomorrow." The old Taoist pointed to the bed next to him, then turned around and went out.
Whenever an old Taoist priest calls my name, it means that the matter is serious. Couldn't it be me who was hit again unknowingly
With some trepidation, I lay down on the bed, maybe I was too tired, or maybe someone I trusted was by my side, and soon I fell asleep.
One night passed.
When I opened my eyes again, I felt a lot better. At least the restless feeling that I felt yesterday has faded.
, Opened the door, and breakfast was already on the table. The old Taoist was eating slowly. Hearing the sound of opening the door, he raised his eyes and glanced at me, then lifted his chin to one side: "When I get up, I will go to wash, wait for breakfast It's not tasty when it's cold."
After the obedient washing up, the old Taoist and I finished our breakfast in silence, and then the old Taoist took something out of my arms and threw it into my arms.
I hugged things in a hurry, I looked down, and suddenly smacked my tongue secretly. It was a book. The cover seemed to be a few years old. I flipped through it. There were words and pictures in it, and it was the vertical typesetting before the founding of the People’s Republic of China. It's barely a cultural relic, and I don't know where it was collected by the old Taoist priest. It feels good when I touch it in my hand.
"With your current ability, you can also take a look at the things on this. Keep it away. How much you can learn depends on your own ability. Okay, go back to your room." The old Taoist is like Throwing a trivial thing, waved at me, and then he opened the door and walked out.
I wanted to ask, but the attitude of the old Taoist priest was a bit strange. After hesitating, I still obediently returned to my room with the Taoist book and started to study.
It’s not the first time I have read this kind of linear book. Apart from the reading habit, it shouldn’t be difficult. But after reading it for a long time, I found that I didn’t understand a word, let alone study it. Content too.
After spending a whole morning in the room, the old Taoist greeted me to go out for lunch at noon. At the table, the old Taoist asked me how I was studying. I could only helplessly say: "I'm sorry, Master, the content of the Taoist book, I can't understand a word."
Hearing my return, the old Taoist priest who had stretched his face since yesterday actually showed a smile: "Do you think that book is so easy to get started? However, you guys really can't learn this situation. What? Don’t stay in the room in the afternoon. I’ll take you to the bamboo forest and calm down. Maybe you can understand the contents of the book."
"Yes." I have no other thoughts now, and nodded obediently.
After lunch, the old Taoist indeed took me into a nearby bamboo forest, threw me on a clearing in a bamboo forest, and then Shi Shiran left.
It’s actually not too far away from the residence of the old Taoist priests.
The division is clean, only the rustling of bamboo leaves when the wind blows. Sitting in the bamboo forest, it seems that I have come to another world, and everything in this world seems very far away from me.
After sitting quietly for a while, I felt a lot clearer as a whole, so I took out the Taoist book in my arms and read it slowly.
Sure enough, this time I didn’t read the heavenly book anymore. I couldn’t understand anything. Although it was very difficult, I still tried to identify and remember word by word.
Time left without knowing it. When it was getting dark, the old Taoist priest took me out of the bamboo forest again and went back to rest.
"Did you read it in the book this time?" During dinner, the old Taoist asked me with a smile.
I scratched my head, and I replied a little embarrassed: "Yes, thank you for your help." I guessed it after I got out of the bamboo forest. In that bamboo forest, the old Taoist must have moved some hands or feet, or arranged some formations, otherwise There will be no such effect.
In the next few days, the days became calm and regular. After breakfast every day, I was sent to the bamboo forest by the old Taoist priest. Until the evening, I would return to my residence to rest. As for lunch, I brought some steamed buns. Dismissed, it makes me read a lot faster.
After entering the bamboo forest as usual in the morning, a red figure suddenly appeared behind a piece of bamboo. My eyes widened in surprise, turning my head and looking in the direction of the old Taoist priest, and found that the other side's figure had disappeared.
"You really pick the time to show up." I sneered looking at the red ghost who appeared automatically again.
The red ghost grinned and showed a weird smile: "You are hiding here and clean. The person in the hospital will die soon."
There is no need to ask, I know who the red ghost is referring to, and frowning, I asked, "What does it matter to me?"
"Hahaha, if he really died, it was you who killed him, but this account has to go to your head, Hou San." The red ghost suddenly raised her head and laughed, her laughter piercing harshly.
I couldn't help but trembled, and I had the idea of whether to check it out, and then I looked up. There was nothing in front of me, and there was the shadow of the ghost in red.
After turning around two times in the same place, I still couldn't get through my inner voice after all. I didn't even say hello to the old Taoist priests, and I left the bamboo forest secretly.
