"Have you or your seniors encountered anything similar before this?" Qiu Lao asked, nodding.
"How should I put it? I've only been around for a short time, so I don't know many things. I only know a lot of past anecdotes. Specifically, it's hard to say whether anyone in the sect has ever encountered something similar. But,
, when we used to play
At that time, I heard a classmate say that there seemed to be another Zen monastery deep in the mountains at the border of Hunan and Jiangxi. In the monastery, there was a very big and old crocodile. According to the monks at the time, this...
It was during the Republic of China,
The government dug it out from an ancient tomb, and because there was no place to put it, it was temporarily placed in the temple. However, as time went by, the monks found that something was not right with it, because at midnight, the temple often
meeting
There was a strange noise. One night, a little novice monk went to the toilet because he had a stomachache. When he passed by a small pond built with funds raised by the lay people, he saw a huge thing lying on the edge of the pond. In the river, it was round and round, like a big pot.
I was startled and thought I had seen it wrong. When I walked in, I saw that the thing lying on the edge of the pool was the one from the ancient tomb carrying the stone wall. The little novice monk was young after all.
, I’m timid, I’ll give it to you with a exclamation
He was so frightened that he fainted. After hearing the news, the monks from the hospital came and shook him awake. He tremblingly told everyone what he had just seen. Everyone looked at each other with doubts, and they all came forward to check with lanterns.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t look at it,
When I saw it, I was shocked. It turned out that the crocodile that was originally lying on the base had one of its legs stepped under the stone monument, and it was leaning sideways as if it didn't have time to find a good position. Not only that.
,even after it
On the back, the upright stone tablet is tilted to one side. It is very obvious. It is said that that thing is still in the Zen monastery. Although there are not many monks inside, if you are interested, you can go
have a look."
I smiled and said.
"You know so many things." Mr. Qiu admired, being stunned by what I said.
"Listen more, watch more, accumulate more, anyone can do this." I felt very proud, but I didn't say it.
"That's right, you are right. When I was young, my favorite saying was: be knowledgeable and make decisions, and accumulate knowledge. As a young person, it is good to study more."
"Yeah." Seeing that the topic was a little far off, I apologized and smiled.
"Do you believe that there are really monsters in this world? Of course, I'm not talking about vixens. For example, stones, copper, iron, water, these things don't seem to have anything to do with living things."
"According to Taoism, there is indeed such a thing. Generally speaking, folk alchemists have a relatively unified view. Most of them agree with the saying that 'things become better with age'. No matter what thing, as long as it ages, there is a possibility of turning into a monster. In
Inside the door, we collectively call it "charm". It seems to be rare to see it now. Pushing forward a hundred years, this kind of thing was not common.
This is strange, because the Chinese people have always had a strong sense of risk. When they were at their peak, many big families would consider leaving a way out for their descendants. Such a way out would often involve secretly hiding money.
Silver treasures are the form. Over time, many deep houses and compounds will be hidden under the ground, in the walls, or in some unexpected places.
Some gold and silver are left to future generations. These things are inherently spiritual and close to the earth's veins, so they can absorb the earth's yin energy very well. Therefore, over time, they will become what we call "charm" or "charm".
'Not everyone can see it, only those who are destined or the descendants of the owner who buried the treasure can see it. Generally speaking, they will appear in different shapes.
They appear like little elephants, or run out of walls, or emerge from the ground. Although they are arrogant and domineering, they usually do not attack people actively. If you are destined, you can just follow them.
There are actually many examples of finding places where treasures are buried, but whether you believe it or not is a personal matter."
"Believe it or not, it's a personal matter. This is said very skillfully. Hey, Lu Li, since you are familiar with this, I would like to ask you, this kind of 'old things become good' thing, how do you do it?"
Do you believe it?"
"I am a Taoist priest, Maoshan Taoist priest." I said with a wry smile.
"But you can only be regarded as half a Taoist priest. You don't become a monk, you don't practice immortality, you don't fast, you don't ask gods, you don't ask heavenly masters to give you instructions, you don't chant sutras and meditate. You don't know how to do divination, but your ability to pick up girls is nothing like that.
Catching ghosts and subduing demons is a first-class job. How dare you say that you are a Taoist priest?"
"What you are saying is too far away. There is a saying in Buddhism, which is that meat and wine pass through the intestines. This is what Buddha kept in mind. Since the time of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, the monks in Shaolin Temple have become meat and wine monks. But look at the Shaolin Temple over the past thousand years.
How many Zenmentai have been produced?
Fighting? So, the details come second. If you follow the rules, you may not get the true essence. If you are a poor person, you will cultivate your mind but not your body, and your Tao will not cultivate your truth. Although some people question it and some despise it, what can you do to me?" I said and smiled.
.
"You..." He shook his head with a wry smile. Mr. Qiu gave me a helpless look, and then said, "To tell you this, you believe that gold and silver can become spirits."
"That's right." I nodded and said.
"Then I ask you, if the gold and silver object turns into a spirit, is there any way you can find it?" After hesitating, Mr. Qiu asked.
"I am a Taoist priest, a Taoist priest who catches ghosts and subjugates demons." The boss said something wrong, so I said.
"Hey...why are you saying this again?" Mr. Qiu said, turning around as if he didn't understand. I was not surprised to see him like this. I took a few steps forward and said slowly
: "Among the people, people with supernatural powers and abilities are not only Taoist priests, but also
Monks, alchemists, warlocks, nuns, lamas, goddesses, dragons, priests, believers, etc., etc., different schools use different methods, different people, and what they do are also fundamentally different. Our kind of people
, to subjugate demons and save people.
For the Lord, it rarely involves gold and silver. There are two types of people who specialize in looking for treasures. According to the ancients, they are all outside the eight elements. One type is the tomb robber, that is, the official of Faqiu.
Jin Xiaowei, this kind of people know the secrets of Feng Shui. Individuals
Those who are proficient in Qimen Dunjia can observe the stars in the sky, examine the earth's veins, find dragons and point holes, and specialize in digging graves to obtain foreign wealth. But besides these people, there is actually another group of people who seek wealth but do not rob tombs. They are not as famous as
The former, but the means are also extremely high."
