Chapter 83 Wanlong Temple
The tattoo death case is over like this. The rest of the interrogation and how it was handled have nothing to do with me.
Everyone has a dark side in their heart, but it is hidden very deep.
For kind people, the sunshine covers the dark side.
If someone is slightly dissatisfied in his heart, the dark side will be enlarged, even blocking the sunshine, and finally he will take an extreme path.
This is too much for me to see.
But in our line of work, we all have a saying, that is, the devil is in the heart of the person!
In fact, this is also true. If you don't do those evil things, ghosts will not come to you.
As the common saying goes, flies don't bite seamless eggs.
My master said, there is no ghost in your heart, no fear!
Finally, I told Cao Ying and others about the situation of the two tattoo artists. As for whether they could understand and accept it, it was beyond my control.
Fatty and I returned to the store.
It rained heavily all night, and in the early morning, there was still water on the old streets that had not yet been drained.
The fat man kept talking all the way. When he got home, Aunt Liu had already gotten up.
"It rained heavily that night, have you gotten wet?" Aunt Liu saw that our clothes were all damp, so she hurriedly urged us to go up, "Hurry up and take a hot bath and change clothes. I'll cook something for you right now.
Ginger syrup! It’s a serious cold!”
After taking a bath and changing clothes, Shi Dan also woke up.
We went downstairs to have breakfast and drink ginger syrup, then we couldn't hold on any longer and went back upstairs to sleep.
I lay in the black coffin, closed my eyes and fell asleep.
Last night I was really exhausted of my energy and my mana, so I didn't care about anything and just fell asleep.
In my sleep, I dreamed of my master.
He walked forward on a dark path, surrounded by jagged rocks and strange and eerie surroundings.
I quickly chased him and called him, but he never looked back.
Suddenly, a strong evil spirit appeared in front of me, and I was so anxious that I kept yelling.
My master looked back at me, smiled slightly, turned around and walked straight ahead.
He was enveloped in the evil spirit.
I heard my heartbreaking cry: "Master..."
"Ziwu! Ziwu? Is this child having a nightmare?" Aunt Liu's worried voice reached my ears.
I opened my eyes and vaguely saw that the last sight of my master was still in front of me.
After a while, the picture gradually disappeared and turned into the faces of Aunt Liu and Fatty.
"Ziwu, are you having a nightmare?" The fat man touched me with his hand, "The sweat is like being fished out of water."
"It's okay!" I wiped my face with my hands, took a few deep breaths and asked, "What time is it?"
"It's already two o'clock in the afternoon! Get up quickly!" Aunt Liu smiled when she saw that I was fine, "The food is still warm for you! I'm going down first, you take a shower quickly, the sheets are all wet, right?"
, I changed it after a while and I took it to wash."
I climbed out of the coffin, took out a set of clothes from the closet, and entered the bathroom.
The fat man helped me take out all the sheets and bedding inside.
He was still mumbling, "Hey, this sweat, if I hadn't seen it coming from you, I would have thought you wet the bed! I'll take it off!"
After I went downstairs feeling refreshed, I saw Fatty helping Aunt Liu stuff sheets into the washing machine in the yard, and saying something with a smile.
"Let's go eat!" Seeing me coming down, Aunt Liu took over the work from the fat man's hands.
The fat man ran in still smiling, "Are you energetic?"
"I have to go out later, will you go?" I sat down and picked up my rice bowl.
"Where are we going? Are we still going to the camels?" The fat man became more energetic.
"No!" I said, "We went because they encountered a problem that they couldn't solve. We had agreed with Uncle Huo at the beginning that I would only help them solve the problem and not care about anything else. They would be the ones to interrogate and finish the work.
of!"
"Oh! Where to go?"
"I want to go to Wanlong Temple!"
In the past, when we caught ghosts, my master would send them to Wanlong Temple.
Now that my master is not at home, I have to make this trip.
"Go! It's okay anyway!" The fat man didn't care, "Today is a working day and no one is coming to the store. Aunt Liu can just watch."
After dinner, Fatty and I cleared the table and put it in the kitchen.
"Aunt Liu, we have to go out for a while!" I shouted to Aunt Liu who was working behind me.
"I know! Can you come back for dinner tonight?"
“Come back and eat!”
As agreed, I put on my backpack, took Fatty out of the store, took a taxi, and went straight to Wanlong Temple on the northern outskirts of the city.
Before I turned eighteen, every year during the Chinese New Year or the Ghost Month, my master would take me to live there for a period of time.
During these two periods, my body was very weak. I didn't ask my master what was going on, and he didn't say anything. He just told me that we are usually exposed to too much evil energy, too frequently, and it will take a while.
, the incense in the temple will drive these away.
During the Chinese New Year this year, I stayed for a month, so there were no problems throughout the year.
During the ghost month, I went to Stone Village with my master.
But, I have never been alone.
The Wanlong Temple is very popular and has become a famous tourist attraction in China.
The tickets are very expensive, but I don’t use them.
I walked directly from the side to the back of Wanlong Temple, took out a key, opened a small iron door, and entered.
The people who manage the scenic spots in front of me may not know me, but all the monks at Wanlong Temple know me.
"Is Ziwu here?" A sweeping monk was sweeping the floor. When he looked up, he saw the fat man and me.
This is the backyard of the temple, and tourists are usually not allowed to enter.
"Senior Brother Qingxuan!" I quickly clasped my hands together, "I'm looking for Master Wu Nian!"
"Go! My master is in his meditation room!" Senior Brother Qingxuan stood with one palm on his chest and said to me. He also glanced at the fat man, "Young benefactor, don't be polite either!"
"Thank you, Master!" The little fat man actually behaved himself and bowed with his hands clasped together.
I pulled him towards the abbot's Zen room on the side.
When we arrived at the door, it was open. Master Wu Nian was drinking tea. When he saw us, he waved, "Come in!"
We took off our shoes at the door and walked in. "Master Wu Nian, my master is not here. This time I came by myself!" I took out the red cloth bag from my backpack.
"Okay!" Just put it in the alms bowl over there!
On the table next to the statue of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, there was an alms bowl that was neither gold nor jade. I placed the red cloth bag inside.
"Burn the incense!" Master Wu Nian said again.
I took out three incense sticks from the incense stick next to me, lit them on the candle next to me, shook off the open flame, bowed respectfully, and inserted them into the incense burner.
"Okay, come and sit!"
I returned to the tea table and sat cross-legged on the futon. Next to me was the fat man. He was doing it properly and his back was straight!
"Master Wu Nian, this is my friend Wang Debiao!" I quickly introduced, "Fat man, this is Master Wu Nian!"
"Amitabha! Master Wu Nian is in good health. I am an incompetent disciple of King Tianyi Guanzhen. Excuse me!" The little fat man performed the Taoist disciple's salute in a formal manner, and then bent down and saluted with his hands clasped together.
"Okay! Master Wang is also a strange man of his generation. The character of his disciples must be unmistakable." Master Wu Nian nodded with a smile, looked at the fat man up and down, turned to me and said, "Your master said that you have met a reliable person."
My friend, is he?"
"When did my master tell you? He left home a few days ago and said he was going on a long journey!" I asked in surprise.
Chapter completed!
