My Taoist Career

Sitting in the car, I had a hallucinatory feeling, and I also had some doubts about my cheap master.

"Master, why can they get this kind of car for us?"

"It's nothing, they are officials. As for me, I helped their leader catch ghosts before." Old Jiang's answer seemed to be without any problems.

I was young at the time, so I didn't think too much about it. He just said what he said, and even that little bit of doubt disappeared.

"Third baby." Jiang old man suddenly called to me.

"Ok?"

"Don't tell your family when you go back, we took this car, let alone go to the town."

"What?"

"No reason, you want to take a car next time, just keep it a secret for me! Also, I am your master, and I will do whatever my master says, respecting my master, do you understand?" Jiang old man threatened me with temptation and threats. This doll is only 7 years old.

"Okay." I simply said, I don't know why I respect the teacher, I just know that I really want to take this car again.

When we got home, it was already around 8 o'clock in the evening. After all, the car only sent us to the entrance of the rural dirt road, and we had to walk the rest of the way back.

I was tired when I got home, and after I finished my meal, I snorted and lay on the bed, but my cheap master didn't even bother to eat.

I lay on the bed for a while, felt comfortable, and wanted to see what old man Jiang was doing. During this period, my parents came in to see me several times, and went out several times hesitating to speak, which made me feel a little nervous. Can't figure it out.

Thinking about it now, they probably wanted to ask what old man Jiang took me to do this day, but they felt that it was inappropriate. After all, they had given their son to someone else as an apprentice. As long as old man Jiang took me out, Then being able to bring it back safely is the greatest peace of mind.

When I got to the yard, I found that old man Jiang had lit an oil lamp in the yard, on which he was carefully pasting paper.

I ran over and saw that he had made a frame with bamboo slices, and was pasting paper on the frame now. Looking at the outline of the frame, he could tell it was a person at a glance!

"Master, what are you doing?" I asked curiously.

"Can't you see it? Where's the paper man." Old man Jiang did it very carefully. While pasting the paper, he also used a kind of ink with a strange color to write and write on the bamboo frame. Anyway, I couldn't understand it. up.

I squatted next to old man Jiang, watching him tie up the paper figurine seriously. After watching for a while, I became bored, and found two pieces of paper on the stone table next to me. I grabbed them curiously and found that One piece of paper is written with what year, what month, what kind of month, anyway, I can’t recognize it at the level of the second grade, and the other piece of paper is a photo of a person, like a photo, but it’s on paper, I know this , is printed, isn’t that what textbooks look like?

I carefully looked at this portrait (let's call it a portrait), on which is a very good-looking woman, with two eyebrows flying into the temples, a pair of narrow and long eyes with flowing eyes, a tall nose, and small and thin lips.

Looking at it this way, she looks like a good-looking woman and a handsome man. I am not stupid, so I guessed it all at once, and said to the old man Jiang: "Master, this is Yu Xiaohong, right? Take her What are the photos for?"

"Not only the photos, but also her birthday horoscope. I'm going to make a stand-in doll. I can't do without these two things." Old man Jiang answered me in detail after pasting up the last piece of paper.

"Stand-in doll?" I was a little puzzled.

"What is Li Fengxian's greatest wish? It is to stay with Yu Xiaohong until she grows old. To resolve her grievances, she can only untie her knots. This double doll is meant to replace Yu Xiaohong, and it can also be used as a Yu Xiaohong, go and accompany Li Fengxian."

"Can a paper doll replace it?" I scratched my head, somewhat puzzled.

"Of course a paper doll can't. It's not easy to make this stand-in doll! For example, the bamboo pieces used for the skeleton must be made according to the proportion of Yu Xiaohong's bone weight. The weight, and the skeleton must be written with the incarnation pattern, a special conversion rune. In ancient legends, the powerful incarnation pattern can temporarily turn decay into magic, just like you fold a bird and draw an incarnation If you apply your own skills, the bird can fly for a while. There are many other things to pay attention to, but it’s troublesome anyway.” Old Jiang explained to me tirelessly.

While explaining, he had already picked up a pen and began to draw on the rough embryo that had been pasted with paper, apparently preparing to draw a person's face.

Old man Jiang's painting skills are really good. After a while, he has already drawn the eyebrows and eyes according to the photo. Compared with Yu Xiaohong's photo, it is 7,8 or [-] points similar. Sometimes I really feel that I am Can't think of anything that my cheap master can't do?

After watching for a while, I became sleepy, lying on the old man Jiang for a while, and lying on the stone table for a while, yawning non-stop.

"Sanbai, go to bed for a while. I will finish this for an hour or so. After I finish, I will take you to do errands." Old man Jiang said casually, probably because he was impatient and I was like a little monkey. Yes, turn around and yawn around him.

I went in as promised, tomorrow is Sunday, although I can justifiably not go to school, but I can't stop me from being sleepy all day today.

Lying on the bed, I didn't even take off my clothes, and fell asleep within a minute. I just remembered my mother came to take off my clothes and covered me with a quilt.

I was woken up by my dad. After he woke me up, he whispered: "Sanbaer, hurry up, your master is already waiting for you outside."

While talking, he wiped my face with cold water. I was fully awake when I was stimulated by the cold water. I still couldn’t help muttering. Being a Taoist priest is also very hard. Not to mention running all day during the day, I still have to do errands at night.

After getting dressed, I walked into the yard, and sure enough, I saw Old Man Jiang waiting for me.

"Master, how long have I been asleep, and what time is it?" I stretched my waist and asked.

"Soon, about two hours, I tied up the paper doll, went up the mountain to get something, and then called your mother to call you. It's still about 10 minutes away from 11 o'clock." When talking, Jiang old man looked at his wrist , I saw a big shiny steel watch at once.

"Master, you are really rich." The big steel watch is a rare thing, it is definitely a symbol of rich people, and my master's piece is different, but I didn't look carefully,

"Hehe, you want it too?"

"Well, I want it." I'm just an honest kid.

"I won't give it to you!" Old man Jiang raised his head triumphantly, and left.

I'm so angry, doesn't this cheap master think it's boring to tease a 7-year-old child like this?

I was led by Old Man Jiang on the way to the countryside. He held me in one hand and held a paper figurine in the other. This paper figurine was wearing a pink costume and a cap. Miao Weiqiao, that face looks very much like Yu Xiaohong in the portrait.

"Master, then Li Fengxian won't come to see my sister tonight?" I was very worried about this.

"No, the three talismans have consumed at least half of her evil energy. It will take at least two or three days to find your sister. It's like staying up all night doing something by yourself, and being very serious in the process. The second time It is necessary to rest for a long time, if not, the spirit will be bad, it will hurt the spirit, and it needs to be nourished, and the ghost is the same."

"Oh, what about two or three days later?"

'啪' answered me with a slap on the head, I innocently looked up at the owner of the slap - my cheap master Jiang old man, who was beaten for no reason, but I saw him roaring with wide eyes To: "Does Lao Tzu seem to be such an incompetent person? Don't talk about two or three days, I can get things done tonight."

In this way, old man Jiang and I rushed to the cemetery on the country farm overnight, maybe because he thought I was walking too slowly, old man Jiang simply put me on his back and walked forward with big strides.

I lay on his back, and I couldn't feel how fast he was walking, but I felt that he could cover a long distance in the past in a short time.

"Master, you walk very fast, don't you?" I was on his back, and I was about to fall asleep comfortably, and I didn't forget to mutter in a daze.

"That's fast too? You haven't seen any real warlocks, but they can fly thousands of miles away." Old man Jiang snorted disdainfully.

"You are promoting feudal superstition again, Master! Could it be that you have seen it?" I also disdain.

"I haven't seen it before, but it's true. Traveling thousands of miles with spirit and soul can move the body to a certain extent. It's just that those people are powerful people. I'm afraid they have become immortals, and the world won't see them." Old man Jiang thought for a while , answered me very seriously.

"Hmph..." Even if I believe in ghosts, I absolutely don't believe in gods. I hummed to express my disdain for what old man Jiang said, but as a result, old man Jiang gave me a hard pinch on my ass, and I didn't dare to say anything .

Say it quickly, it’s really fast, usually I have to walk for an hour and a half, and I feel like I’m there in a while when I lie on the old man Jiang’s back. The old man Jiang looked at his big steel watch proudly, and smiled: "My lightweight kung fu is not bad, less than an hour, hehehe..."

I curled my lips, thinking I hadn't picked up food stamps again, but I didn't dare to say it.
