    no, 283 Wudang Town encounters false Taoism

    Wudang Town is a small town built at the foot of Wudang Mountain.  The town's population is only a few thousand people.  It can be said that the whole town knows if there is something unusual about a certain family, and there is no secret.

    There are two teahouses, two butcher shops, an inn and wine shop, and a small oil and rice shop in Wudang Town, which are the only open shops in the town.

    Huang Junming came down from Wudang Mountain and went straight to the inn.  The name of the inn is very simple. It is not the Yuelai chain or Youjian inn that opened all over the country in ancient times.  It just had an ordinary, slightly rustic name called Shuncheng Inn.

    As the only combination of wine shop and inn in Wudang Town, Shuncheng Inn has a greater sense of presence as a wine shop than as an inn.  After all, Wudang Town has a small immigrant population.  There is not much income from just operating an inn. On the contrary, as a wine shop, there is still a certain amount of profit to be made.  Wudang Town is such a big place. If any family has weddings, weddings, or weddings, they will be settled at the Shuncheng Inn. They are all from the village.  The price is acceptable to everyone.

    When I feel like drinking, it is something that people in Wudang Town are very happy to do if they ask two or three friends to have a drink at Shuncheng Inn.

    Huang Junming returned to Shuncheng Inn, first to return the room he had occupied these days.  Get your deposit back by the way.  Although the remaining deposit is not enough to buy all the things needed for daily life, at least I can buy some rice and noodles.

    On the other hand, Shuncheng Inn is the best place for Huang Junming to inquire about information. If there is any trouble in the town, Shuncheng can say that he knows everything about it, and he can convey the cause and process of the whole thing as quickly as possible.

    "Shopkeeper, Pindao's house can be vacated. Please settle the settlement, shopkeeper." Huang Junming said to the shopkeeper who was in a daze.

    "The Taoist Master is leaving so soon? Last time I heard Mr. Wang Carpenter say that the Taoist Master built a house in the mountains? I'm afraid he will stay here permanently, right?" the shopkeeper asked casually while calculating the accounts.

    "Isn't that right? Pindao climbed Tianzhu Peak a few days ago and really liked the feeling of tranquility, so he decided to take his apprentice to stay here. He will inevitably bother the shopkeeper in the future." Huang Junming also followed the instructions of the cabinet manager.  said.

    Living in the mountains always has some inconveniences, so I have established a good relationship with the people down the mountain.  There's always some use, right?

    "It's done! From now on, we can be regarded as half-neighbors. If you need anything, Taoist priest, just ask us! You stayed in the store for a total of six days, and the rent was twelve copper coins per day. A total of seventy-two Kaiyuan Tongbao. Xiao  The store's profit is very thin, so I will wipe off two copper coins for you. You paid a deposit of 100 yuan at that time. This is 30 yuan, Taoist priest, please keep it!" The shopkeeper is also a good person. Hearing that Huang Junming plans to live in the mountain permanently, he  I made a small discount on the relationship.  It was considered as a favor to Huang Junming.

    Huang Junming took the copper coins in one hand.  He held it in his arms and said with a smile: "To be honest, Pindao only has the thirty copper coins you gave me left, and he hasn't even bought the bedding, rice or noodles on the mountain yet! Pindao is pondering the news from the shopkeeper.  Well-informed, please let the shopkeeper tell us that there is no need for Pindao in Wudang Town, so that Pindao can make some money so that he can sell his rice noodles and live in the mountains."

    After listening to Huang Junming's words, the shopkeeper thought for a moment, and then said: "To be honest with the Taoist priest, there are really not many jobs suitable for Taoist priests in Wudang Town. You must know that there are many Taoist people like us. We don't even grind mirrors on weekdays.  It's suitable for someone like you who is in urgent need of money. Unless we are half-hearted, you go to do a ritual. Bah, bah, don't we curse others! To be honest, there are not many white things. At least there is no such thing recently. It's difficult.  !¡±

    It seems that there is really nothing that Huang Junming can do in Wudang Town?  Huang Junming couldn't help but feel a little depressed.  He who is also the shopkeeper regards Huang Junming as an ordinary Taoist, although Taoism is gradually integrating.  It is not easy for news to spread to the remote Wudang Town.

    When Huang Junming was about to walk out of the Shuncheng Inn and think of a solution, suddenly, the locker man shouted: "By the way! Taoist priest, two guests today mentioned that something seems to have happened to Zhu Butcher's house in the south of the town, and we are looking for him."  The Taoist is doing this, where can the Taoist go and see it!"

    It was really a torrent of mountains and rivers with no way out, and there was a bright future in another village. Huang Junming thanked the shopkeeper, asked for directions again, turned around and walked towards Butcher Zhu's house.

    This Zhu Butcher is said to be a military junior high school in the former Sui Dynasty. He also followed Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty on an expedition to Korea. Later, he made some war fortune. After his comrades were killed in the battle, he became a deserter and returned to his hometown.  Opened a butcher shop.  According to him, if you can kill a man on the battlefield, why wouldn't you dare to kill a pig?  It's just that Butcher Zhu's butcher shop depends on his mood. If he's in a good mood, he'll like you, and he'll cut you two more taels. If he's in a bad mood, he'll just show you a piece of meat without even weighing it, and give you the weight directly.  I want you to pay up and leave as soon as possible.  It's a bit difficult to weigh everything.  Fortunately, they were all villagers and neighbors. Sometimes when this happened, it was Butcher Zhu's wife who would help and apologize for Butcher Zhu.It's nothing.

    However, Butcher Zhu¡¯s son can be said to be a well-known coward in the town.  I am supposed to be a hero, but Butcher Zhu's son is even afraid of thunder and rain, let alone the sight of blood.

    It is said that when Butcher Zhu was killing pigs, his son once took a look at it from a distance. As soon as the blood of the pigs flowed out, Little Zhu fainted and the whole family was in a hurry.

    This time, Butcher Zhu¡¯s son was tricked into the mountains by some scoundrels and left alone next to the cemetery. Xiao Zhu was already timid, how could he not be scared when he was alone next to the cemetery?  Coupled with the fact that there was no one everywhere, it only took a while for him to panic.  In the rush, he somehow fell to the ground and happened to startle a giant snake.  He bit Xiao Zhu's neck.

    By the time Butcher Zhu brought someone to find him, he had already passed out.  After checking the child's whole body, he saw two tooth holes on the child's neck. Butcher Zhu immediately panicked. You must know that giant snakes are rare in the entire Wudang Town. Although there are snakes on Wudang Mountain, they are usually small snakes.  Although the bite is poisonous, the wound will never be that big.

    Such a big wound was on the side of the neck, but it frightened Butcher Zhu's family. No one forgot about the snake and thought, it was next to the graveyard and there was a tooth hole on the neck. There was only one legend in everyone's mind.  Something zombie.

    Since everyone thought that a zombie bit Xiao Zhu and Xiao Zhu was unconscious, they naturally asked a Taoist priest to deal with it.  But according to legend, anyone bitten by a zombie will turn into a zombie.  It would cause panic in such a big Wudang Town.  Butcher Zhu, who loved his son very much, also concealed the news. He only said that something happened at home and wanted to find a Taoist priest to help him.  So the transmission is not deep.

    By the time Huang Junming arrived at Butcher Zhu¡¯s house, he found that two of his colleagues were already performing rituals.  Huang Junming entered the courtyard and told Butcher Zhu the reason for his visit. Butcher Zhu thanked Huang Junming very much and invited Huang Junming to sit aside. Although there were already two Taoists doing it, one more person would be more insurance, wouldn't it?

    Huang Junming sat aside and frowned frequently as he watched the two Taoist priests jumping up and down.  For Huang Junming, although he is not familiar with all the Taoist rituals, they are inseparable. In addition, he has been sorting out the Taoist canon a few days ago, and he can be said to be more familiar with various rituals.

    But now, looking at the posture of these two people jumping up and down, how can they look like they are doing Taoist rituals?  , although both of them wore this robe and a bun.  What he was chanting was also Taoist scriptures.  It's just that this scripture is really unusual, or it can be said to be a pseudo-Taoist scripture that has long been recognized.

    The so-called pseudo-Taoist scriptures are the kind of Taoist scriptures that are written under the guise of gods, and the entire Taoist scriptures are written like Taoist scriptures, but have no actual meaning.  The most talked about words in this kind of Taoist scriptures are things like how the Supreme Lord is as urgent as laws and regulations, and how a certain deity can be used by me.  It's basically something to fool people.  A true Taoist would not even glance at this kind of scripture.  Or: No connotation!

    ??Looking at the way the two of them were jumping up and down, there was no trace of the seven stars on their feet, and there was no gossip in their chests. Fa Huang Junming looked carefully, but they looked like wizards from Western Hunan.  It can be said that it is very nondescript.

    Seeing these things, Huang Junming couldn't help but feel a little angry, but this ritual was just to make the victim feel at ease. Looking at Butcher Zhu like this, he was probably going to lose money.  And I came here in vain.

    Huang Junming didn¡¯t know the situation at Butcher Zhu¡¯s house. When he came in, Butcher Zhu nervously looked at the practices of the two pseudo-Taoists and didn¡¯t have time to explain clearly.  This caused Huang Junming's misunderstanding.

    In Huang Junming¡¯s eyes, it was just two hypocrites uploading and degrading practices to a young ¡°corpse¡± lying on the bed.

    Huang Junming was getting up and about to leave, but he saw two pseudo-Taoists muttering something while taking the talisman and burning it, then headed towards the body on the bed.  I saw that each of the two people dipped some talisman water and wiped it on the neck of the "corpse".  One person opened the "corpse's" mouth and fed it the talisman water.

    Suddenly, Huang Junming's pupils shrank suddenly. When the fake Taoist fed the "corpse" some talisman water just now, Huang Junming clearly saw the "corpse" swallowing!  What does this prove?  This means that the "corpse" on the bed is not dead at all!

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????  Huang Junming had some doubts in his heart.  But he was dismissed in an instant. Maybe it was also curing his illness?  !  But being tormented like this by these two Taoists might have hastened your death, right?  !  After all, it was a matter of life and death, and Huang Junming was ready to take action.

    Suddenly, one of the two false Taoists was heard saying to Butcher Zhu: "Master Zhu, the master's corpse poison has been cured. The master is determined not to become a zombie. Don't worry, as for the  When will the young master wake up? Pindao will come soon. It is better for the layman to pay the money for the ritual to Pindao first, so that Pindao and his junior brother can find a place to live in Wudang Town. By the way, it will be more convenient to take care of the young master."

    "The Taoist priest can't say anything else.If you don't like it, you might as well live here first.  As for the money, I have already prepared it, take a look" Zhu Butcher felt relieved after hearing Pseudo-Dao's words, and handed over the money with a slight smile.

    Before the fake Taoist took over the money bag, Huang Junming shouted loudly: "Slow down!"

    Damn little dark room!  !  !  (To be continued)
