Please calm down and speak slowly." I grinned and lowered my paws, trying to comfort the old man.
"Who are you?" the old lady said, looking up and down.
"I am... a Taoist priest from the Maoshan sect." I said with a silly laugh.
"Maoshan? Are you from Maoshan too?" the other party said, with a look of shock on her face. Seeing that she didn't quite believe it, I smiled and said, "Why, do you also know people from Maoshan Road?"
"I know, of course I know, our old man is from Maoshan." The other party said, with a proud look on his face, and then said: "You said you are from Maoshan, how can you prove it? These days, there are many people pretending to be Maoshan disciples.
, don’t discredit Maoshan here, I can see that there are seven golden lamps behind you, I wonder whose skills you learned from?"
When she said this, she actually pointed at my back, but when I heard these words, I was really shocked. After thinking about it, I suddenly understood that the other party had yin and yang eyes, so naturally
I can see the seven pillars of fire behind me. Thinking about it, this is not a big deal.
"I am really a disciple of Maoshan, certified by the general altar." I said, took out the Maoshan token from my pocket and waved it in front of the other party. When the old woman saw it, her face changed and she suddenly hid behind her.
He was lying on the ground with a look of fear.
"What are you doing?" I looked up and down and said with a smile.
"The old woman is blind and doesn't know where the envoy is." The other party said, prostrate on the ground without raising his head.
"Do you recognize this thing?" I asked in surprise after hearing what she said.
"To tell you the truth, the old man in my family is really a descendant of Maoshan." The other party said, and kowtowed to me again. Seeing her like this, I was not used to it, so I hurriedly asked her to raise her head and asked what happened.
Understand, it turns out that this old couple is really legendary.
This woman's surname is Ma, and her name is Ma Rulan. Her ancestral home is Shandong. Her family is a performer and is good at juggling. When she was born, her parents still lived a life of no fixed abode. Later, they experienced turmoil.
Life is very sad, they are running around
The girl was even missing. When Ma Rulan was born, it was raining heavily. In order to take shelter from the rain, her parents went into a long-abandoned small temple in the forest. They were expecting a baby in October.
She was born in front of the Bodhisattva in the temple.
When she was born, her mother died in childbirth, and she was born with a pair of yin and yang eyes. A fortune teller said that the child was a lone star, and whoever met her would be unlucky. Because of this, when the child was little, the doll
He was abandoned by his father,
Just when the child was about to die from hunger, he suddenly met some fat old nuns in the middle of the night. Those nuns were different from ordinary Buddhist disciples. They dressed strangely, did not chant sutras, and practiced some seemingly superficial things every day.
Very strange ability.
When they saw the child, they didn't say much. After testing the child's breathing, they picked up the doll. The name Ma Rulan was given by the nun.
When Ma Rulan was a teenager, the nuns began to teach her some very special skills. She said that the skills she learned were for the purpose of immortality. The method was similar to refining elixirs and cultivating Taoism.
People often have to eat the reproductive organs of boys and girls, which is very scary.
When she said this, I actually understood that 10% of the time, those nuns were most likely disciples of the "Yi Guan Dao" that was popular at the time. Only this "Yi Guan Dao" was always interested in the reproductive organs of boys and girls.
It's interesting to say that this "Yiguandao" is different from other religious schools. It has always advocated the "unity of five religions". They believe that Jesus
Christ, Sakyamuni, Muhammad, Confucius, and Laozi are actually the same person. This person is the "***" in their hearts. Whether it is Sakyamuni or Laozi, these are all incarnations of that god.
Because of this, they generally advocate the "fusion of five religions" and through various methods, they have attracted many folk experts to expand their strength and influence.
Objectively speaking, this attitude is more inclusive than the idea of "the fusion of three religions" that has existed in China for hundreds of years. Those who promote this also have some tricks. As far as I know, from the time of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom to the founding of the People's Republic of China
In the beginning, this "Yiguandao" had been popular for many years, but those who ruled the church were blind and did things that were too arrogant and vicious. In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, this sect was labeled as a cult and banned.
However, as the Chinese saying goes, a broken ship still has three nails. A force that has been passed down for hundreds of years cannot be uprooted so easily. It is said that there have always been people who believed in this. However, today, its influence has gone far.
It can't be the same as it was back then.
Ma Rulan told me that when she was learning her skills, she discovered that her masters often traveled around, and when they had the opportunity, they would bring some younger brothers and sisters back to play with her.
The younger brothers and sisters who play together, within three days
It wasn't until she grew up that she realized that the little dolls she played with back then were all children kidnapped by these fake nuns. Some of them were sold for money, and some of them were...
It directly turned into the steamed pork they often eat.
Ma Rulan was young and had been kept in the dark. By the time she realized it, it was actually too late. After eating human flesh for more than ten years, she seemed to be addicted and couldn't stop. In her opinion at the time
, the most unforgettable thing in this world for her is the meat of children. She is in pain because she knows that it will not work if it goes on like this. But on the other hand, as long as she does not eat those things for a few days, she will feel extremely uncomfortable.
After a few years like this, she was struggling hard between the self-blame of her conscience and the battle between her appetite and appetite. Finally, on a dark and windy night, she couldn't stand her nausea and got a taste of her from the group of old nuns.
Escaped from inside.
At that time, the whole country was suffering from famine, and the roots of bark and grass in many places had been eaten up. In addition, when she came out, she was anxious and did not have much food with her. When she was about to starve to death, she once again
Focusing on those sallow and skinny children...
Fortunately, at this time, the only man in her life appeared.
He was a Taoist priest who traveled around the countryside. His ancestors were also from the Maoshan lineage. However, what he learned was different from mine. What he learned was the "medicine" formula among the five Taoist arts. When the two met, they fell in love with each other.
