Chapter 12 God Stick
The Xingjiao Temple in Shitoucheng is solemn and is a typical Zen temple building. The main hall adopts the Tang Dynasty Han-style beam frames, brackets, caissons and other architectural forms. The beams, beams, columns and door frames are covered with flying skyscrapers, and figures have a strong Tang style relief. The golden roof and brackets are also typical Han-style structures.
Shu Yi and Ximen Wuwang came to the temple, and there were many small stalls selling incense and candles, with pilgrims everywhere.
However, Shu Yi's eyes were attracted by a small stall, "Testing and fortune telling"! The stall owner was a man of twenty-seven or eight, dressed as a Taoist priest. Ximen Wuwang also discovered: "This kid is a little interesting. He actually pretended to be a ghost outside the temple." Shu Yi smiled: "It must be a fake Taoist priest who wants to borrow someone's treasure land to cheat money." Ximen Wuwang said: "Don't interfere in the temple?" Shu Yi said: "Often people can't do it if they smash people's jobs, let alone monks."
The two passed by the Taoist priest and entered the temple.
Shu Yi glanced at the Taoist priest intentionally or unintentionally, and the Taoist priest also frowned and looked at Shu Yi.
A little monk was adding lamp oil to the hall. Shu Yi walked up and asked, "Master Huiyin is here?" The little monk glanced at Shu Yi, put down the oil bottle in his hand, and bowed: "Is there anything that the donor has to ask Master Huiyin?" Shu Yi said, "I want to ask the master for advice on some things." The little monk said, "Master Huiyin no longer cares about the world. Donor, please go back."
Shu Yi smiled and said, "My little master, can you bring me a word to the master? You just need to bring the words with you. If the master still insists on not seeing you after hearing this, we will turn around and leave." The little monk looked at Shu Yi in confusion: "Please say the donor." Shu Yi said, "Brahma Liuliqin." The little monk nodded after hearing this: "Okay, donor wait, I'll come."
The little monk went in. Shu Yi and Ximen Wuwang were wandering in the hall. An old monk who was decorating the signature was testing the signature for a group of good men and women, but he did not notice Shu Yi and the others.
It took about a quarter of an hour before the little monk returned to the hall.
"Two donors, please follow me." The little monk said to Shu Yi and the others. The two followed behind the little monk, walked through the hall, and went from the corridor to a small archway. After leaving the archway, it was a small slope. When they climbed up the stairs, there was a lonely small courtyard. The gate of the courtyard was open, and the little monk led the two into it. There was a small vegetable field in the yard, a two-foot-high small table, and a few small stools. On the small table was a large blue and white teapot and a few small teacups.
The doors of the two bungalows were open. The little monk walked to the door of one of them and said, "Master Huiyin, the two donors are here." "Well, go." The little monk said goodbye to Shu Yi and the others and went out, and gently took them to the yard gate.
An old monk walked out of the room. The gray monk's robe was worn out, several patches were applied, and a pair of cloud shoes had holes. The old monk's eyes were kind, his beard was gray, and his face was full of wrinkles.
He looked at Shu Yi and Ximen Wuwang and smiled and said, "Please sit down, two of you." Shu Yi owed his lower body: "Master, please." The old monk was not polite, and sat down. Shu Yi and Ximen Wuwang then sat down. The old monk was Huiyin. After everyone sat down, he picked up the teapot, poured a cup for Shu Yi and Ximen Wuwang first, and then poured it on himself: "Please have tea!"
Shu Yi picked up the teacup and sipped it gently: "Yu Qing Xiaoye is bitter. This kind of weather is really quenching thirst." Huiyin said: "Is that so? Just quench thirst. Tea is a common thing that makes people quench thirst. It should not be taken seriously, nor should it be taken seriously." Shu Yi said lightly: "Don't the master think that speaking is a bit pretentious?" Huiyin asked: "How is it pretentious?"
Shu Yi smiled and said, "I won't talk about tea. Just a master, teapot and tea cup are also objects that are of particular importance. Should the master pay attention to it or not?" Huiyin said, "Why did the donor say this?" Shu Yi said, "If the master said it correctly, it should be made by Jingcheng Pavilion in the Qing Dynasty. These cups are a bit older. If the master is considered to be unspecified, there will be no one who pays attention to it anymore."
Huiyin was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "It seems that I am guilty of possessing a jade, but these things are really common things for me. It is not a pity to lose them by chance." Shu Yi said: "I just said something disrespectful, so I hope the master will forgive me." Huiyin said: "The donor just said a fact, why is it disrespectful? I don't know why the donor visited me."
Shu Yi replied: "Master Wen knows rhythm and is good at guqin, so I want to ask the master for someone." Huiyin said: "It's not a question of knowing rhythm, and there is no way to start with a good guqin. I'm afraid it will disappoint the donor." Shu Yi said: "I am just curious. The Brahma Glazed Piano is just a record of Buddhist scriptures. Is it really a thing?" Shu Yi said: "I also want to figure it out, so I came to find the master."
Huiyin said, "Donor, I don't know what I can help you?" Shu Yi said, "I heard that there is an old piano master who can make ice strings in Stone City, Qingliang Mountain. I wonder if the master can introduce it to the younger generation?" Huiyin said, "You are asking the right person. Even the old people in Stone City may not know him." Shu Yi said, "I also heard from an elder. He said that the old piano master opened a piano shop in Stone City, but we inquired all the way, but we didn't find it."
Huiyin smiled and said, "It must be that girl Yu Li who asked you to come here?" Shu Yi nodded, and Huiyin said, "Okay, we are destined to find me, but tell me why I am looking for him. What does this have to do with Brahma Liuliqin?" Shu Yi did not hide anything and told Huiyin in detail the two cases.
After hearing this, Huiyin's face was slightly angry: "I understand Xiaoxiao, but I dare to blaspheme my Buddha like this." Shu Yi didn't say anything, Huiyin said: "The person you are looking for is Yanziji, and the Yi family in Yanziji is very famous in the local area. The old man's name is Yi Huayang, so he should be over 80 years old. He is the person you are looking for. But I heard that he is a little confused now, and I don't know if he can help you."
Shu Yi said, "No matter what, we have to go and see, Master, thank you." Huiyin said, "Since the matter is urgent, I will not leave the two donors, but I have a ruthless request." Shu Yi said, "Master, please tell me." Huiyin said, "After this matter has a result, I hope you can go to Jinling again to relieve me." Shu Yi said, "Well, it must."
Shu Yi and Ximen Wuying left the temple. When they walked by the Taoist priest's stall, the Taoist priest shouted: "Please stay, please stay."
Shu Yi and Ximen Wuwang stopped and looked at the Taoist priest. The Taoist priest said, "Two, you should be looking for someone, right?" Ximen Wuwang said, "How do you know?" The Taoist priest said, "Not only know, but you also know that you are in big trouble." Ximen Wuwang looked at Shu Yi, and a smile appeared on Shu Yi's face. The Taoist priest said, "What? Don't you believe it?" He asked Shu Yi.
Shu Yi asked, "Who do you think we are looking for?" The Taoist priest calculated with his fingers: "You are looking for an old man." Shu Yi was secretly shocked. It seemed that this charlatan really had some skills.
Shu Yi said, "Then can you figure out where he is?" The Taoist priest shook his head: "It's not easy to know these things just by his eye." Ximen Wuwang sneered, "Since you can't figure out, what are you trying to hold us up? Could it be that you want us to pay for these two sentences?"
The Taoist priest said, "If I can figure out where he is, are you really willing to pay?" A trace of cunning appeared on the little Taoist priest's face. Shu Yi said, "As long as you can really calculate it, we will definitely pay." The Taoist priest said, "Okay, you can write one word for me, and then I will test it for you, and there will be an agreement." Ximen Wuwang said, "Write it." After that, he picked up the paper and pen on the Taoist priest's stall and wrote the word "rock" casually, and Shu Yi also calmly wrote the word "she".
The Taoist priest picked it up and took a look, but he didn't say anything for a long time.
Ximen Wuwang sneered and said, "What? Are you stunned?" Shu Yi was also a little disappointed. It seemed that he was a little respectful to this little Taoist priest. He said to Ximen Wuwang, "Ximen, let's go." The Taoist priest said, "Let's wait!" Shu Yi said lightly, "At this level, how dare you come out to cheat?"
The Taoist priest said, "Give the money!" Ximen Wuwang said, "You haven't mentioned the place yet, how can we get the money?" The Taoist priest said, "Get the money first, I'll tell you the place." What else Ximen wants to say, Shu Yi said, "How much do you want?" The Taoist priest said, "Two hundred yuan." Ximen Wuwang said, "You might as well go and grab it." But Shu Yi really took out two hundred yuan from his body and handed it over: "Tell me."
The little Taoist priest said, "The person you are looking for is Yanziji." Ximen Wuwang was completely shocked: "How do you know?" How could Shu Yi's face become more intense? This little charlatan really seems to have some Taoism.
The little Taoist priest did not answer Ximen Wuwang's words, but put the money in his pocket.
Shu Yi said, "Ximen, let's go." But the little Taoist priest said, "Sir, please stay." Shu Yi said, "The money has been given to you, what else do you want?" The little Taoist priest smiled and said, "I'm just curious. The sir seems to be a person who is a transcendent. How could he bother the worldly disaster?" Shu Yi said, "It seems that it doesn't matter to you, right?"
The little Taoist priest shook his head: "I'm just worried about sir. This is how you want. If you are willing to pay, I can resolve the disaster for you." Shu Yi smiled and said, "Oh? Is it? How much does it cost?" The little Taoist priest said, "It's like this, you're destined to meet me. As long as you take out two thousand yuan, I will definitely do a way to eliminate disasters for you and turn you into good fortune."
Shu Yi smiled: "Boy, you have some small skills, so I won't care about you anymore. But I'll give you a piece of advice. If your mind is correct, your law will be correct. If your mind is evil, your law will be evil, and it is easy to enter the path of demons." The little Taoist priest was stunned for a moment: "What do you mean?" Shu Yi said: "This way, you have tested the words for us, and I'll give you a look."
Before the little Taoist priest could speak, Shu Yi said, "Your parents died early, were lonely since childhood, grew up eating a hundred families, and they could not end up doing good deeds. Only by finding a non-stop can you gain something. You have a solid disease and need to maintain it. You need medicine to understand the principles of Yi, but you are a fake Taoist." After that, he left the little Taoist priest and took Ximen Wuwang away.
The little Taoist priest was completely stunned. Looking at Shu Yi and the others' backs, he couldn't speak for a long time.
Shu Yi and Ximen got into the car, and Ximen asked, "Shu Chu, are you a fool?" Shu Yi said, "Who said that, although I dare not say 100% accurate, it is almost certain." Ximen was about to start the car, but found that someone was slapping the window, which was the little Taoist priest. Shu Yi rolled down the window and said, "What else is there?"
