The ancestor's tablet must be at home, so if I want to consult him, I have to go back. So I closed the shop and returned home. It was already past three in the morning.
Although I remembered my hometown, everything about it was unfamiliar to me. Otherwise, how could I not even remember my mother? The door was unlocked, as if it was left for me. I sneaked in, and it was pitch black. I didn't know where the light switch was, let alone where the memorial tablet was.
He took a few steps forward and accidentally knocked over the coffee table and knocked over the water cup, making quite a lot of clanging noises.
Mom and Shen Bing both cried out in surprise at the same time in different rooms: "Who?"
"I."
"Why don't you turn on the light?" Mom complained. Shen Bing didn't say anything else.
I quickly said, "Well, I was afraid I'd wake you up." I couldn't think of a good reason for a moment, and when I said it I realized how lame it was.
With a click, someone turned on the light. Shen Bing stood at the door of the bedroom with red eyes, looked at me for a few seconds, then turned around and went back to the room silently.
I was actually quite afraid to see her, afraid that she would pick up the topic again, but when she returned to the room, I felt relieved. I first propped up the coffee table, picked up the things that fell on the ground, and then turned around to find the ancestor's tablet with a bronze mirror next to it.
This is a Bagua mirror. I reached out and touched it, and I felt something strange. Then I lit three incense sticks in front of the ancestor's tablet, and before I kowtowed, I suddenly thought, what if my mother and Shen Bing heard me talking to the ancestor
So I carried the tablet out again, went to the shop, and even took the bronze mirror with me.
When I got to the store, I put the tablet and the bronze mirror on a chair. This was the only way I could do. I burned three sticks of incense in front of the tablet and kowtowed three times respectfully. But after I kowtowed, I was stuck again. How should I invite the ancestors to come out? Just as I was worrying about it, a light flashed on the bronze mirror, and a guy with a rat-like face appeared. Damn, it was really a big rat!
I was so confused. The Bagua mirror is an authentic Taoist magic tool. How could there be a demon hidden in it? Besides, it belongs to my family. I stared at it in confusion. It tilted its head and stared at me with its eyes wide open. It looked funny.
"What are you looking at? Have you never seen me?"
Damn it, how could you take advantage of me right away? Do you want to die? I reached out to grab it in the mirror, but with a "bang", my finger was hit back by the mirror and I almost broke it.
"Good boy, it seems you are really stupid. Go buy five roast chickens for me, an old man, and I will help you solve the problem." The big rat smiled obscenely.
When it mentioned roast chicken, I remembered that the mirror god likes to eat roast chicken. Could it be the mirror god? I touched my nose and asked, "You are..."
"Of course I am the most handsome and caring mirror god in the world. Go buy some roast chicken. Your mother hasn't offered me any food these days, and I'm almost starving to death!" The big rat's eyes widened and he looked very angry when he said this.
I pulled my nose and thought, why do I have such a dead rat in my house? But it is a mirror god after all, it can help people solve their problems, although it looks a bit wretched. But it's the middle of the night, where can I get a roast chicken
So he shook his head and said, "I'll owe you the roast chicken first. Since you helped me solve the problem, I'll offer you ten roast chickens tomorrow."
