Eryi briefly told Shitou what happened just now. Shitou Tingzong stood up and thanked the two old guys, but was stopped by Uncle Wen, so Shitou lay quietly and listened to our conversation.
I always feel that all this is so strange tonight. How could Uncle Wen appear there for no reason? It's not surprising that he knows Yuan Mei, because he should have known Uncle Yuan a long time ago, but the most important thing is that since he is also a disciple of the Bai sect, why does he hide the truth and defraud people of money all day long?
There are so many questions that I don¡¯t know what to ask. It¡¯s true that people always lose their temper at critical moments. Just like me now, I don¡¯t know where to start, so I spent a long time and just said: "Uncle Hangwen, your copper coin sword , no more?"
When Uncle Wen heard that I asked such an irrelevant question, he couldn't help but feel angry and funny. I saw this "old magic stick" said to me: "Anyway, those copper coins are almost scrapped, what's the use of them." I'm talking about you. Just don't hit me hard every time, okay? Your yang energy has been dispersed. Oh, if I don¡¯t say anything anymore, can¡¯t you ask me something that I should ask? "
After hearing what he said, I thought for a while, where to start asking, so I said to him: "Uncle Wen. Why did you lie to me. You are originally a descendant of the Bai sect, why did you pretend to be Landao to deceive me?" Where are the people?"
Uncle Wen heard me ask him this question. After taking a puff of cigarette, he held his cigarette and said slowly to me: "I knew you would ask me this. Well, I can't keep it secret today anyway, Xiao Fei. Listen up." , although we usually refer to each other as master and disciple, in fact, I and I are your senior brothers."
What? Senior brother? After listening to Uncle Wen's words, I was immediately shocked. You must know that the senior brother he is talking about is not the senior brother who is causing trouble in heaven. My master is Uncle Jiu. He has been dead for decades. How come these two old gangsters have become my senior brothers today? Yes, wait a moment. These two
I suddenly remembered that it was true, Uncle Jiu told me. I am indeed his third disciple. He once accepted two disciples during his lifetime. Because they were at odds with each other, he did not pass on the "Book of Three Purities" to them. Damn, it couldn't be such a coincidence. I looked at this scene in front of me. "Two old magicians, are they the two obscure apprentices of Uncle Jiu during his lifetime?"
Thinking of this, I said to Uncle Wen in surprise: "You said you are my senior brother, are you the ninth brother?"
When the two old masters heard me mention Uncle Jiu, their expressions suddenly changed, and a trace of astonishment appeared on their brows. Uncle Wen sighed and said to me: "That's right, we were Master's disciples during his lifetime. I am Your senior brother."
¡°Damn, I really guessed it right, but if they said that, it means they already knew that I was their junior brother, so why did they still act in front of me? This is completely illogical! !
Lao Yi and Shitou were listening to our conversation quietly, so I said to Uncle Wen, "When did you know my identity? Since you know it, why are you still pretending to be a fool and deceiving me?"
Uncle Wen sighed when he saw that I seemed a little excited. He said to me: "Actually, it was arranged in advance for you to come to my store. I didn't mean to lie to you. This was Master's intention. Do you understand?"
What? A colon suddenly popped up in my head, why is Uncle Jiu involved again? What's wrong with Uncle Jiu? He's still working as a ghost in the underworld. Does this matter have anything to do with Uncle Jiu?
Uncle Wen saw that I didn't understand at all, so he looked at each other with Uncle Lin. Although these two old guys are usually incompatible, they are still relatively reliable at critical moments. This was proved in Qitaihe. Uncle Lin Without saying a word, he nodded silently, and Uncle Wen said to me: "Xiao Fei, this is indeed what the master meant. You know what the "Pu Shi" is. What? These are the original words of his old man
I was confused by what Uncle Wen said. What "charge you fifty?"
Lao Yi who was standing by was also stunned. He asked Uncle Lin: "Uncle Lin, why did you two charge him fifty? Why do you two brothers recognize each other and still charge money?"
Uncle Lin glared at Lao Yi fiercely and scolded him: "Can you speak less and go out if you don't want to stay? Why do I feel so uncomfortable when I see you now!"
Seeing that he was being scolded, Lao Yi did not dare to say anything more, so he continued to lower his head and listen to the audience. Uncle Wen said to me: "What I'm talking about is the "Pu Shi of Rebellion." This is what Master said a year ago. What you said to me
After Uncle Wen finished speaking, he told us the reason for this. It turns out that this matter should start from when I first went to college. All of this must start from "well water paints mirror." rise.
We have said before that I can summon Uncle Jiu by smearing the mirror with well water, but I don¡¯t know that this is not my own patent. To say "coating mirrors with well water" is itself a Taoist method. Uncle Jiu wanted to preventIn addition, it had been taught to his two apprentices long before his death. When Uncle Jiu arrived in Yin City after his death, he was worried that this spell technique could not be passed down to others, but there was still hope in his heart, that is, hope. His apprentice would paint the mirror with well water, and now he is dead, so they will definitely find him through the mirror on the night of the 15th, and then he can pass the Three Purities Book to them.
But Uncle Jiu was still cautious. He was afraid that something would happen to his apprentice again, and it would be over if he didn't look for him, so he stayed more than half a step ahead and waited, but he didn't know that it would be the end of the world. However, this evil intention caused it to wait in the Yin Shi Kong for who knows how many years.
As introduced before, Yin City is the place where yin and yang meet, and it is a transit station between the yang world and the underworld. It is a place that is neither yin nor yang, neither dead nor alive, so Uncle Jiu is waiting here, let alone the mirror. Even soaking the mirror in well water was of no use. This was indeed Uncle Jiu's mistake. Uncle Wen and Uncle Lin had been painting the mirror for a whole year, and Uncle Jiu didn't even know it.
To say that this is really a mistake, even if Uncle Jiu goes to the underworld immediately after his death, he can still contact Uncle Wen. But the tragedy is that such coincidences exist in this world, and the tragedy is caused by this little old man's hesitation.
A day in the Yin City is equal to an hour in the Yang world. It can be seen how many years Uncle Jiu has been waiting. Finally, due to a strange combination of circumstances, Uncle Jiu gave up the idea of ??waiting for his two apprentices to apply mirrors. While Uncle Jiu was complaining about his apprentice's unfilial piety, he started to set up a small stall more than half a step ago and waited for the destined person who was not dead to appear.
I don¡¯t know how many years later, I, the unlucky guy who was still alive, showed up. Uncle Jiu passed on the "Three Purities Spell" to me as if he had found a treasure, and then we both went our separate ways. After I returned to the sun, it The old man then boarded a train and went to the place where he should have gone long ago.
A few days later, according to the date, it should be after I went to college and before I met Dong Shanshan. At that time, Uncle Jiu was already a daughter. It's about one night. Uncle Wen, who has reached middle age, is willing again. . People tend to feel nostalgic as they age. Under the stimulation of alcohol, this feeling will become more intense, so Uncle Wen didn't know what he was smoking, so he took out the mirror from under the bed and started applying it. You must know that after so many years, he had no success, so he simply I didn't have high hopes, but I didn't expect that we were connected that day. When Uncle Jiu's figure emerged from the mirror, Uncle Wen was immediately startled. Then he looked at the master whom he had not seen for many years and cried with joy.
When Uncle Jiu saw that the person who called him out turned out to be Uncle Wen, he immediately became angry and cursed this unfilial man for why he didn't look for him after he died. Uncle Wen was stunned when he heard this, and quickly told Uncle Jiu that he had been painting mirrors for a year. After listening to this, Uncle Jiu finally realized that this was what was going on. It seemed that there was a master in the dark and God had destined Uncle Wen and Uncle Lin to have no fate with the "Three Purities Spell".
So Uncle Jiu was no longer angry. After all, he had been dead for such a long time and had put his mind to everything, including matters of heaven. So after the master and apprentice reconciled, they couldn't help but talk about the old days. Uncle Jiu took my Uncle Wen told the matter. When Uncle Wen heard that he actually had another junior brother, and this junior brother was really interesting, he actually joined the sect without dying, so he became interested in this younger junior brother.
Especially after Uncle Jiu said that I was in Harbin now, Uncle Wen was even more delighted. He wanted to find me after dawn, and then the brothers would recognize each other and have someone to take care of me in the future, but Uncle Jiu did not agree with him.
Uncle Jiu said to him: "Xiao Fei is still in an unstable state of mind now. You'd better not go to him and let him practice in the world on his own. Only when he has tasted all kinds of pain in the world and knows the way of heaven between humans and ghosts can he be with you." Yes, you must know that a rough stone is an ordinary stone if it is not carved. If you want to carve it into a beautiful jade, although Xiao Fei is not very qualified. But I can see that if this child devotes himself to practice, his future achievements will be far beyond what he has done. Teacher, you must know that the unruly stone is the best carving knife for carving small things. He is lazy by nature. If you show up, he will definitely come to you to ask for help if he has any difficulties. In this case, he will accomplish nothing. It's better to let him suffer some pain. When he shows his talents in the future, you brothers will recognize each other again. You will not live up to my hard work as a teacher.
After Uncle Wen heard what Uncle Jiu said, he thought it made sense, so he promised Uncle Jiu not to come to me. Let me go out into the world and hone myself, but you have to know that although Uncle Jiu said this, we already knew that his character was not like this. He is actually a typical little old man who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, and likes to tell cold jokes from time to time.
Although it told Uncle Wen so harshly, it still loved me as its apprentice. It asked Uncle Wen what their master and apprentice were doing now, and Uncle Wen answered truthfully. He said that we now each have a Buddhist temple. He also helps many people in need on weekdays. But Uncle Wen kept it in mind and didn't take it seriously.He said that he wanted money to the death.
Uncle Ninth was very pleased to see that his apprentice had inherited his mantle and conquered demons among the people. Uncle Ninth thought about it. I still feel a little worried about its little apprentice. So I told Uncle Wen that in the future, if Xiaofei succeeds in his studies and enters the society, you should find ways to get him to come to your place, but don't reveal your identity. It's best to make an illusion that you are Landao. If someone comes to find you to resolve the evil, point him to Gong Xiaofei, and you are protecting him secretly to prevent any unexpected events. Do you understand?
Uncle Wen heard what Uncle Jiu told him. I have a number in my mind. I didn't expect that my master would still have the same temper after so many years of death. It was a bit funny to think about it, but as the saying goes, a master's orders cannot be violated, not to mention that his master had been very kind to him, and it was Uncle Jiu who brought him up. So he nodded firmly.
When I heard this, I was a little stunned. I didn't expect that there was such a process. Thinking about it, since I graduated from college, every time I chatted with Uncle Jiu, Uncle Jiu never asked me what I do for a living now. It turns out that It has long known that I work in my senior brother¡¯s shop!
Hearing this, my nose couldn¡¯t help but feel a little sore again. Uncle Jiu had really good intentions. It knows that I am soft-hearted and not suitable for this job. If I always rely on others, I will die one day, so it arranged such a scene between senior brothers, which is really difficult for it.
"Suffering from adversity, I muttered this sentence silently in my heart. I'm afraid this is really the case. I can only grow in adversity. If Uncle Wen had appeared a long time ago, I'm afraid I would never be able to see the tears of the female ghost and the sparrow of the night fox, and I really wouldn't be able to be like this.
Only by truly experiencing all the suffering in the world, feeling moved, contradictory and painful, gathering and parting, life and death, love and hate, can we know how to cherish and become strong and powerful, because only in this way can we be qualified to protect others.
It turns out that this is what happened. I finally understood the reason why this old guy, Uncle Wen, likes Landao. Although it sounds a bit absurd, it is not absurd, because this is a relationship between an apprentice and his master until death. Promise is also the good intentions of a master to a disciple.
Thinking of this. I smiled bitterly on half of my face. I really didn¡¯t expect that I was so stupid. Just give me a trick and I would get in. I thought I was always superior to others, but I didn¡¯t know that my road had already been paved by others. I I had despised Uncle Wen infinitely before. I thought this old bastard had no ability at all, but now I understand. In fact, he was just pretending not to understand. As the saying goes, "There are thousands of ways to practice, and they accumulate over time." This old guy is infinitely better than us. He is just giving us juniors an opportunity to hone our skills.
¡°But this training is not completely laissez-faire. He always provided me with conditions overtly and unintentionally, including the copper coin sword he took out while pretending to be drunk. In fact, Uncle Wen was awake that night and hid outside the garage. When we saw the Seven Dead Straw Man flying out, we no longer had any power. He stepped forward and destroyed it.
I looked at Uncle Wen, and I was infinitely grateful to him. You must know that he had helped me countless times in the dark. If it hadn't been for him, it would have been as early as the Seven Deaths. Dong Shanshan and I will both die.
Thinking of this, I actually shed tears of gratitude. Why didn¡¯t I realize it before, Uncle Wen? Thank you for your hard work, you "old bastard".
Lao Yi was dumbfounded on the sidelines. He didn't expect this matter to be so complicated. After thinking about it for a while. Suddenly he said to Uncle Lin: "Uncle Lin, what about me? What happened to me? Also, why was Xiaofei introduced by Yuan Mei?"
