chapter eight
The next day, we returned to the Taoist temple, settled down in the temple, and began our two-year pursuit of knowledge. As for why it was two years, it involved a lot, but it was still related to the female corpse. Since I was touched by her,
The body was always cold, and the cold disease could not be cured until the female corpse was relieved of the knot. Unfortunately, the four people who delivered the corpse that day were too worried and refused to explain their origins. Based on their spoken words, grandpa
The pursuit led me here. It happened that an old friend, Taoist Master Qingyu, had established himself here, so he came here. After a year of tracing, my grandfather discovered that the four of them did not belong here, and he was ready to take me away. But at this time, I had no choice but to
An important event in the town entangled Grandpa and he couldn't get away. Besides, staying in the Taoist temple was also good for curing the cold in my body, so I stayed for one more year, for a total of two years.
In the past two years, my grandfather asked me to learn some scriptures from the Taoist priest. Every morning, I listened to a section of the Purification Sutra, and in the evening, I listened to the Heart Seal Sutra. I can’t do it too much. It can only be used for self-cultivation, and I can’t read it all.
This is also where grandpa’s hope lies. His old man
I just wanted to be a layman, start a family, and recite these scriptures as magic weapons for future survival. After studying for half a year, I couldn't control my curiosity and begged my grandpa to teach me strange things. Grandpa couldn't resist me, so he promised to teach me something so that
I will be a "no separation person".
The ghost things that grandpa did can be divided into three parts: "cutting", "entering" and "fixing". The so-called "cutting" means "cutting yin and yang". A ghost thing must be connected with yin and yang. If yin and yang are not connected, you must find
This method can only be done by connecting yin and yang. However, if the yin and yang are combined too tightly, it will harm the common people, so it must be cut open to calm people's hearts.
The so-called "entering" means "entering into silence". Ghosts can be divided into yin and yang, but Grandpa is a figure in the world of the sun. If he wants to remove the soul, he must enter into silence, that is, enter the underworld before he can contact the ghosts. The last step is "sedation"
——"Determining a ghost" is also the most dangerous step. To determine a ghost, you need to judge the soul. Is the ghost good or evil?
Why stay in the human world, you have to give it a home. Generally speaking, the little ghosts can rest in peace after a little care. But when you encounter evil ghosts with overwhelming resentment, you have to be extremely vigilant. If you are not careful, you will feed back to yourself and your Yangshou will be swallowed up by it. Back then,
The old undertaker also made a mistake in his judgment and invited evil spirits to take revenge. He died of illness before he was fifty.
Considering the tragic fate of the old undertaker, my grandfather refused to teach me the "Three Swordsmanship" and just asked me to be a "Wu Li Ren". To explain "Wu Li Ren", we must first talk about the classification of ghosts. Ghosts
Generally speaking, they are not happy ghosts, funny ghosts, poor ghosts, little ghosts, resentful ghosts, or evil ghosts. Happy ghosts and funny ghosts have no ill intentions towards Yang people. They only scare them and have fun.
Poor ghosts and little ghosts generally do not harm people and only ask for some money. If you encounter resentful ghosts and evil spirits, you should be vigilant. The third daughter-in-law of the Zeng family belongs to the resentful ghosts, and the person they hate is the second son.
Targeted. But the female corpse that met me is an evil ghost. What she hates is not a specific person, but the entire society. She is the most resentful ghost.
To be a "no-separate person", you must first be "no-mind", forget about your heart, have no joy, no fear, no sorrow, sink like stagnant water, and have no ripples in an ancient well. Once you reach this point, it will be difficult for ghosts to hold your heart.
If there are no cracks, they can't attack. Moreover, ghosts are willing to accept unintentional people, just like you are a passerby. Whatever they do, you just don't provoke them. It's harmless to them, so they will naturally not provoke them.
You. The second step is to "leave the soul", stay away from ghosts, and just look at them from a distance. When the departed soul reaches a certain level, it is like the void. They do evil, and even if you stand next to them, you will not know your existence. However,
"Wu Li Ren" is only for ordinary little ghosts, and it will most likely touch the ghosts of resentment. You must not approach evil ghosts until you reach a certain level. Even if you have nothing in your heart, evil ghosts will still twist you into pieces.
I heard my grandpa say that I should be a "Wu Li Ren". I was quite happy because I have a relatively weak personality and a cold body, so I am not suitable for such vigorous things as "fixing the soul". Besides, I can develop my habits freely.
I don't want to come into contact with strangers, I just like to watch from a distance. Now my grandpa teaches me how to see ghosts, but I won't touch them anyway.
I've gone too far, but let's get back to it. During the first period of time when I first settled in the Taoist temple, my grandfather often went out to track down the whereabouts of the four people. I was mostly childlike at the time, and after visiting the Taoist temple, I got a little tired of it. Later, I finally found it.
Something happy is to follow Qing
Taoist priest Yu "sits on the street". Since there are few tourists in the Taoist temple, the expenses in the temple cannot make ends meet, so the Taoist priest has no choice but to go to the streets to make a living. The old Taoist priest is also always smiling. I don't have my grandfather with me, so I just follow him.
Behind him, he was running happily.
Every morning, the Taoist leader would carry a folding wooden table and a birdcage, with a thrush trapped inside, to the street and start "telling words and interpreting dreams." I carried a round stool and placed it next to it.
Squatting on it and watching from the side. In the small town at that time, the literati
There are very few, it is rare for someone to say anything. Instead, many common people come here to interpret dreams. Those common people do not dare to deceive Taoist priests, and they all tell the truth. Those strange and weird dreams can sometimes make people open their mouths in surprise, and sometimes they can
It scares me half to death, and sometimes makes me laugh for a long time.
I had only been there for a day when a farmer in his forties, wearing a sweatshirt, came over.
"I said, sir, please save me." The man must have dreamed of something unlucky.
"The old Taoist is very capable, tell me, what's the matter?" The Taoist Master smiled.
"I had a strange dream yesterday. The black dog at home dug up the field with its mouth and dug it up." The man was confused.
"Are you entertaining the Taoist? It's a good thing that dogs can plow the fields, it's a good thing! Why are you looking so sad! Go, go!" The Taoist drove him away.
"Is it really a good thing?" The man was doubtful and refused to leave.
"If you don't leave, good things will turn into bad things." The Taoist priest pretended to be angry and glared at him.
"But there are crops growing in the fields!" The man looked aggrieved. He couldn't hold it in anymore and was shaking. After hearing this, I couldn't hold it in anymore and burst into tears from laughing.
"Wait, wait. This is an allusion. Telling a dog to fetch mice means to meddle in other people's business. The same goes for dogs plowing fields. During this period, if there are things that are not your responsibility, don't interfere, otherwise you will cause disaster."
Start interpreting dreams.
"Oh, that's it. Thank you, Taoist priest." The man paid a dime and left in a hurry. After he left, I asked the Taoist priest: "Grandpa Taoist priest, why are you teasing him?"
Hehe laughed and told me: "Life is just nonsense. You have to laugh often and strive to get ahead. Do you understand?" I shook my head, saying that I didn't understand. The Taoist priest smiled and said: "You, in ten years
Understand it again."
What the Taoist said was right. After ten years, I really understood. I realized that the Taoist seemed to be cynical, but he actually guided people to be positive and broad-minded, and the evil obstacles in their hearts were naturally eliminated. But in the future, I was not as good as the Taoist.
