My Taoist Career

Chapter 1 The Mysterious Birthmark

My profession is a warlock, of course this is a nicer name, in today's society, people are more willing to jokingly call people who engage in this kind of profession 'magic sticks'.

Sometimes I feel a little helpless. After all, there are very few people who really understand the "metaphysics" left by their ancestors and have goods in their stomachs. Moreover, because of some taboos, how can the so-called masters be willing to serve ordinary people?

Therefore, people have seen a lot of swindlers, and the saying of the magic stick is naturally deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

I also don't want to be hypocritical. In recent years, I have done 37 transactions in total, but the clients I serve are basically either rich or expensive, except for 2 transactions which are special cases.

Today, I am free and do not take any orders anymore. Of course I like money, but the secret must not be leaked. If you have a life to earn, you have to have a life to spend, right?

It’s just that a too comfortable life is a bit boring. Looking back on the forty years of my life, the only regret is that I am ashamed of my master, because the lifelong wish of his old family is just to be a real warlock. , and even carry forward the 'metaphysics'.

is it easy?In today's society, I want to say that it is really not easy!In fact, the real high level of the country attaches great importance to "metaphysics", and even treats people who really know how to do it as treasures.

But this is something that is kept under wraps, and the common people cannot be allowed to know about it. Don’t ask why. Those who can trust me on this point should just trust me.

Thinking about it, the only thing I can do is to write about my experiences over the years, so that people can understand what a real warlock is all about, and let people see what real metaphysics is all about.

Of course, I won’t write out the very specific methods. If everyone can learn this stuff, it won’t be lost by now. I don’t want to mislead anyone, or even make anyone follow suit out of curiosity.

As for whether the things I recorded are true or not, I just want to say one thing, think about it in comparison with your own life.

Well, without further ado, the following is what I have compiled over the years.For some special reasons, I will do some literary treatment of some key places, that's it.

I am from Sichuan. I was born in a poor village in the southwestern part of Sichuan in the winter of 1967. My exact date of birth is out of professional taboo. Just to mention, I was born at exactly twelve noon, not more than one second, not less than one second.

Speaking of this, some people will definitely ask, isn't it so mysterious?Not more than one second, not less than one second, who can guarantee?Even if my dad was holding a watch and staring at the time, there is no guarantee, right?

It is indeed such a principle!

So, what I want to tell you is that this time was pushed out by my master according to my horoscope later.

I would never doubt anything my master said, and later facts proved that his old family told me, and I never missed it.

So what's so special about people born at [-]:[-] noon?This will be mentioned shortly.

However, I still have to say something first, people born around this time period should not panic, in fact, there are not many people born at this hour in China, really.

Let's continue.

The winter when I was born was a very cold winter, so cold that my parents are still very impressed.

Regarding that winter, my dad described it like this: "It's so cold, so cold that even the old hen in the yard walked on tiptoe."

I can't imagine what a funny sight a hen walking on tiptoe is, but in my hometown where there is almost no snow, the cold winter to this degree is unforgettable, and it is precisely because there is no snow that the cold way Compared with the cold north, it is even more uncomfortable. It is a kind of cold, damp and cold, which is different from the cold, and it is cold to the bones.

I was born in such a winter. When I was born, my parents almost thought that I could not support me, especially in this abnormally cold environment.

why?There are three reasons.

First, I am very thin. My mother said that when my father hugged me in his arms, he yelled, why is this no different from holding a kitten?

Second, my crying at that time was very weak, and there was no sound, as if something was strangling my neck, and I felt like I was struggling desperately and panting.At that time, the experienced woman who delivered my baby thought I was choking on amniotic fluid, and even patted me upside down a few times, but it turned out to be useless.

Thirdly, when my dad and that steady woman were taking a bath for me, they found a birthmark on the back of my head.Ordinarily, the birthmark is not a big deal, but the color of my birthmark is like blood. If you look closely, it looks like an eye.

Rural people are superstitious. At that time, the Wen woman was a little scared, and said: "It's fine that this birthmark looks like an eye, but when I look at it, it looks like it is staring at me? With this thing, do you want someone to look at it?"

My parents haven't read any books, and they were frightened when they heard what Wen Po said and saw the baby like this.

Especially my mother, who just gave birth to me, was weak at first, and spread out on the bed in a panic, but my father still had an idea, and asked quickly: "Grandma Liu (Wen Po's surname is Liu), what do you think of this baby? What's the problem with my son? Who should I go to see? Should I go to the township health center to call a doctor?"

The rural people were poor, and the medical conditions at that time were not good. In the eyes of my parents, this experienced Liu Wenpo was undoubtedly the greatest authority and very convincing.

Seeing my dad asking this question, Liu Wen's mother-in-law first looked around in a daze, and then whispered to my dad: "A newborn baby, that thing is easy to take advantage of loopholes, you know, that thing is for Those who leave marks. For example, if you are caught, you will have a few black finger prints on your body, and you will have footprints when you kick it. You have all seen the kind of people who are pulled by water ghosts as substitutes. Right? Most of the fished-up corpses have hand marks on their feet."

Hearing this, my dad shuddered at the time, and immediately understood what the thing in Granny Liu Wen's mouth was.If it was said that Liu Wenpo left a mark on her, my dad would think she was nonsense, but the later sentence that the water ghost is looking for a substitute has a mark on her body, but my dad had to believe it, because he had seen it with his own eyes.

That happened in the summer more than ten years ago, and my dad was only in his early teens at that time, and the children in the mountains had no tricks. Who would not take a bath in the river ditch in summer?

The day when the incident happened was the same as usual. After my dad finished his work, he invited 5,6 or [-] of us to take a bath. Among them, there was a pair of twin brothers, simply called big twins. Xiao Shuang, things happened to them.

What was it like? My dad didn’t see the details. He only remembered that he was fighting mud fights with another kid by the river, and he heard Xiao Shuang shouting: “My brother is going to sink. , come on, come on, help me..."

Hearing the shout, my dad turned his head in shock, and when he turned around, he saw Da Shuang's body sinking toward the middle of the river in a daze. In an instant, only the top of his head was left, and he didn't even struggle.

And Xiao Shuang was already swimming towards his brother quickly, and there were two people following behind him quickly...

At this time, my dad couldn't care about anything else, he was all Fa Xiaoer, how could he not save him, and swam towards Da Shuang's direction. After a few steps, Xiao Shuang grabbed Da Shuang's head and put it on top of him. Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, he heard Xiao Shuang roar: "My day is so heavy, Wang Gouer, come and give me a hand..."

Wang Gou'er was the one closest to Xiao Shuang at that time. He heard Xiao Shuang's yell, but he didn't think much about it. He quickly swam 2 steps and managed to grab Xiao Shuang's struggling hand on the water.

"Go hug my brother, I'm going to lose my grip..." Xiao Shuang couldn't even take a breath, so she shouted loudly, the scene at that time seemed to have exhausted all the strength in her body.

Then there was another flurry. After all, there were 5,6 or [-] people, and a few adults who were working not far away were alarmed. After all, the twin brothers were rescued.

After being rescued, Da Shuang fell into a coma and did not know how much water was poured into his stomach. His entire stomach was swollen and round, while the little Shuang's face was livid, and he was still trembling slightly in such a hot weather, but people thought It's scary.

At that time, people didn't bother to ask anything, they were all busy saving Da Shuang, and none of the people living in this village by the river had any common sense in dealing with drowning. After a quarter of an hour, Da Shuang finally woke up.

Da Shuang, who had just woken up, had dull eyes, as if he didn't quite believe that he was still alive. Before he could say anything, Uncle Li slapped him on the head and scolded: "F*ck naughty doll, come on!" What are you swimming in the middle of the river? It doesn't matter!"

This is a real reproach with concern. People at that time were simple and honest, and most of the people in a village knew each other well, and the relationship was really good. Who would want to see which doll have an accident?So a few words of scolding are indispensable.

Da Shuang didn't reply, my dad watched from the side, and understood that this kid hadn't recovered yet, but Xiao Shuang, who had been trembling slightly by the side, couldn't help but say something; "Fourth Uncle, I think I Brother didn't want to swim in the middle of the river, he was dragged there, really."

Xiao Shuang's voice was not loud, but as soon as he uttered these words, the surroundings became quiet, and even Fourth Uncle Li was stunned.

Rural people, who hasn't heard of some strange things in the mountains? Didn't Xiao Shuang make it clear that there are water ghosts looking for a scapegoat?People have heard a lot about it and talked about it a lot, but when they actually saw it, they were puzzled and refused to believe it.

"What are you talking nonsense, little brat? I'm afraid that your old man (dad) will beat you when you go back. Don't talk about these things to scare people." Uncle Li's face was quite serious. To shirk responsibility, I'm afraid it will be unlucky.

"I didn't talk nonsense!" Xiao Shuang was excited all of a sudden, he jumped up and shouted: "I watched my brother swim down and couldn't move for a while, and watched him sink into the middle of the river in a while, as if he was caught Something dragged on. And, and..."

"And what?" Fourth Uncle Li's expression turned ugly. He knew that the kid wasn't lying, and it was a bit weird.

"And I went to save my brother. As soon as I grabbed him, I felt that his body was so heavy, as if someone was robbing me of my brother. It was still cold, and as soon as I grabbed my brother, I felt cold all over..." Xiao Shuang While talking, trembling at the same time, everyone believed it a little bit at this time.

My dad was also the one who helped drag Da Shuang up at the time, and he knew that Da Shuang's body was cold like ice.However, my dad and the others were not affected.Thinking back afterwards, it might have been a few half-sized boys with strong yang energy, and the thing retreated, otherwise, how could it be so easy to rescue the person who was entangled?

At this moment, Da Shuang finally spoke: "I saw a fish in the river, and I went to catch it. As soon as I got there, someone was grabbing my ankle. Once I grabbed it, I couldn't move. My whole body moved No, it's too cold to move..."

When Da Shuang said this, his eyes were still a little dull, but there was an expression of obvious fear on his face. At this moment, my dad saw a scene he would never forget in his life. He followed Da Shuang's words and subconsciously looked at it. On Dashuang's ankle, there are three obvious thumbprints on the ankle, which are black and blue, and they all look weird.

"*** baby, it's your fate..." Everyone saw it, and Fourth Uncle Li obviously saw it too. He held back for a long time, and only said one sentence, and then couldn't say anything else.

This is the end of my dad’s memories. Thinking about this, he was even more anxious, because our family already had two daughters at that time. My dad was very eager for a son. Seeing that he finally had a son, he couldn’t I can't help but watch.

"Grandma Liu, what do you think is wrong with my baby? Look at me..." My dad was already anxious and at a loss.

"This mark looks like an eye. I'm afraid this is the reason for being targeted?" Liu Wenpo lowered her voice and said uncertainly.

"Then what's the matter?" My dad obviously believed in this uncertain statement, and rushing to the doctor in a hurry was my dad's mentality at the time.

"What's the matter? You're going to invite..." At this point, Liu Wenpo stared around and carefully whispered in my father's ear, "Please take a look at the widow of the Zhou family."

"Ah, Widow Zhou?" My dad couldn't help but whispered when he heard the name, and frowned, obviously he couldn't make up his mind.

"Widow Zhou?" Originally, my mother was lying on the bed. When she heard the name, she couldn't help but struggled to sit up, and said in a repeated voice: "No, no, his dad said it at the village meeting the day before yesterday. Yes, ** said that all ghosts and monsters should be swept away, and the four olds should be broken, and feudal superstition should not be practiced."

When Liu Wen heard my mother say this, she immediately got up and said: "Old Chen, I am doing this for your family. It is not easy to hope for a son. As for what I said, you can decide for yourself, and I will leave now. "

My dad glared at my mother, and quickly got up to see off Liu Wenpo. When he was almost at the door, my dad grabbed a chicken and insisted on stuffing it to Liu Wenpo: "Liu Granny, I, Chen Da, know how to get rid of it." Don’t worry, I’m not allowed to do that thing without an asshole. When my youngest son grows up, I’ll thank you by mentioning Lao Barou.”

"Yeah, it's from the folks in the village. On the contrary, everyone is not close now. Speaking of which, who really hopes that the other is not good? This world..." My father's words were cryptic, and Liu Wenpo still Understood, muttered a sentence, and left.

Of course, these things can't be blamed on my mother, she is a timid woman.It must be no wonder that my dad and Liu Wenpo are so cautious, they have to turn corners when talking. Everyone knows what kind of era 67 was.

My dad just said to Liu Wenpo that he thought of her well and would not do such immoral things as exposing others, and Liu Wenpo just sighed that in today's world, there is no relationship between people. No matter how close you are, you dare not talk to each other.

But compared to the madness of the outside world, this poor village can already be regarded as a paradise-like existence. At least the people in this village are still somewhat human, and everyone is still emotional, and they have not been invaded by the madness outside. too deep.

After sending Wen Po away, my dad entered the house with a heavy face, and at this time, my two older sisters who were avoiding in the woodshed were also in the house.

When a woman gives birth, the child should avoid it. This is a custom that has been passed down in our area for a long time, and my family is naturally not exempt from it.

As soon as I stepped into the door, my dad saw two sisters lying on the bed, looking at me very curiously, with a cautious look, especially when the eldest sister who was only 5 years old reminded me in a low voice that I was only 3 years old. The second elder sister who was [-] years old: "Second sister, don't touch your younger brother, and don't touch your younger brother, he looks so small."

This sentence aroused my father's thoughts. He walked over and hugged the second sister, stroked the head of the eldest sister, and looked at the little me, frowning tightly.

"Old Chen, are you really going to invite Zhou..." Mom still remembered that, and hurriedly asked Dad as soon as he entered the room.

My dad coughed, interrupted my mother, then put the second sister down, and said to the two sisters: "Big sister, you take the second sister to the kitchen to guard the chicken soup, and if you boil it dry, you will have no chicken for two nights." ate."

At that time, because my father was capable, my mother was hardworking, and the conditions of the family were not bad in the village. At least every time my mother gave birth, she could have a pot of chicken soup stewed by old hens to replenish her body. It was for two sisters.

When I heard about eating chicken, my two elder sisters were very active. They agreed to my dad and went to the kitchen, guarding them.

"You can't say these things in front of your children. If the children don't understand and miss it, not only our family, but also others will be involved." My father said softly to my mother.

"Aren't I worried? Look at the youngest, who is thin and small, and I don't have a grandma, and it's been so cold this winter, I..." My mother couldn't go on, she was already hugging her Sleeping in my arms, as if I was going to leave her the next moment.

"Widow Zhou is now a ghost and a snake spirit, with a bad reputation. Although the village head and the people in the village thought of love and saved her, the cadres from above are not staring at her, hoping for something to happen. They It’s good to earn credit.” My dad was able to read a little when he was literacy, but when it comes to people and the world, my dad is very good.

"Then what should we do?" My mother suddenly lost her mind, and then muttered: "What the **** said not to do, are we really going to do it?"

My dad is angry and funny, and my mom is just an ordinary woman. Apart from my dad, she is most convinced by **.

"This is the case of the youngest in our family who doesn't know. If you know, you think his old family is so great, would you agree to save our youngest? Don't think about it. Let me see it this way. I will take care of it tomorrow. The youngest go to the township health center, if the doctor is useless, I will find a way to get Widow Zhou to help." My father comforted my mother a few words, and then sighed, what he was worried about at that time was that Widow Zhou would not Ken can help.
