Return to the soul

Bai Tae-hwan dared to quit the association as soon as he said it, that is his ability to quit as soon as he said it.The Association has said for so many days that it will deal with him, but there is only thunder but no rain.

You Qingwei is different, she has a weak family and can't afford any risks, the association can't deal with Bai Tae-hwan, so it's easy to deal with her.At that time, just find any excuse, use her as a knife, and kill chickens to make an example to monkeys. She doesn't even have a place to cry.

It is easy to say retreat, but it is not easy to retreat so that the people of the association have nothing to say.

You Qingwei was not in a hurry to write his resignation immediately, but went out early the next morning with Lu Wugui to offer incense.

The place where she burns incense is a Taoist temple called Shangqing Palace, and the front of the Taoist temple is the front and rear view.The front view is a place to receive tourists and pilgrims, while the back view is the place where Taoist priests in the view live and practice.

You Qingwei was worried about being blocked by Mr. Ji Liu and the others, so he left very early.The road conditions were good in the morning, and when she arrived at the Shangqing Palace, the gate of the Shangqing Palace was not open.

With the development of tourism, Taoist temples have also developed into tourist attractions.On the left side of the entrance of Shangqing Palace, there is a big iron plate on the wall, which says the opening time: 9:00-17:00

After You Qingwei parked the car, he and Lu Wugui waited outside the door for a while, when a Taoist priest came to the door, and there were people selling tickets at the ticket office.

After she bought two tickets and stepped into the gate, she donated incense money and invited three incense sticks.After she entered the door, she burned incense first, and then led Lu Wugui towards Sanqing Hall.

Before stepping into the Sanqing Hall, she deliberately arranged the robes of the homeless, checked the Chilong Bagua plate and the Tai Chi Yin-Yang jade stuck in the middle of the Bagua plate, and said: "If you feel that there is any hindrance to you, you can do it right here. Wait for me outside the gate of the hall, I will go in and offer incense to the Patriarch of the Three Qing Dynasty, and then I will come out. If there is no hindrance to you, there are a lot of immortal families here, and it will not hurt us to offer more incense."

Lu Wugui said: "It's okay." She looked back at the three sticks of incense sticking in the incense burner, and asked, "You Qingwei, won't you let me burn incense now?"

You Qingwei glanced at Lu Wugui, teased her, and said, "Oh, I forgot, how about I go back and get you three?"

Lu Wugui hurriedly said: "No, no, you need to be sincere to offer incense. When I used to offer incense in the office, I always recited in my heart, 'I have 100 yuan, you don't have to deduct it'."

You Qingwei was speechless.When she entered the hall, she worshiped Sanqing first, and after she finished worshiping Sanqing, she saw Lu Wugui looking up at the statue of Sanqing.

Generally speaking, there are many supernatural beings in temples, and some places where incense is neglected are prone to attract ghosts and evil spirits.However, places like this with strong incense and orthodox Taoism have a sense of righteousness, and it is difficult for ghosts and evils to invade.

You Qingwei found that Lu Wugui was not at all uncomfortable standing in the Hall of Sanqing, and was looking up curiously at the Patriarch of Sanqing, without respect or fear, just like looking at the old man next door.

You Qingwei couldn't help but take a few more glances at this naturally bred ghost.Although she has a clear understanding of Lu Wugui's life experience, she always feels that Lu Wugui is different from ordinary ghosts and monsters.This difference is not only because Lu Wugui is cultivating the Dao of Incense, she is learning Taoist skills, and it is not because she has practiced for a long time.To be honest, who doesn't have hundreds of years of Taoism?When the Baoan Temple was still there, Dabai was already in the body of a snake, and in terms of Taoism, no matter how you say it, Dabai is superior.But she vaguely found that if the relationship between Dabai and Lu Wugui was put aside for that close friend, Dabai would be a little afraid of Lu Wugui.

Just like now, if it is an ordinary ghost, goblin or monster, even if it is transformed into a human form, if it enters the hall and sees the Patriarch of the Sanqing, it will probably have to kowtow and kneel.There was no way back, she looked up with her small face up, just looking at it calmly, without awe or fear.

You Qingwei doesn't know whether the road to nowhere is due to the fact that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, or other reasons.

The front yard of the Shangqing Palace is not big, but it is not small, and the two of them walked relatively quickly, and they finished shopping in about an hour.

Seeing that it was already morning, You Qingwei led Lu Wugui to look back.

When I went around to the back, I saw a wall and an inconspicuous double door.There is a sign next to it: Tourists are not allowed.

You Qing stepped up the steps slightly, and lightly knocked on the half-hidden backyard gate.

Not long after, a Taoist priest in his 40s opened the door, appeared at the door, made a bow, and asked, "Excuse me, what's the matter?"

You Qingwei bowed back and said, "Please inform that You Qingwei and Lu Wugui are here to visit Taoist Master Jinchen."

After the Taoist looked at them carefully, he said, "Wait a moment", closed the door and went in.After touching for about ten minutes, a Taoist priest came out and welcomed them into the back view.

The back view is different from the extraordinarily glamorously repaired front view. A courtyard gate separates the front and rear views into two different Taoist views and different worlds.

Mottled light and shadows penetrate the centuries-old trees, and the old wooden houses are hidden in the lush greenery. The neatly repaired stone steps, stone railings, and stone slabs are covered with traces of moss. Breathing the breath of time.

The Taoist temple is very quiet, and occasionally the sound of birds can be heard.

From a distance, You Qingwei saw an open space above the steps, where Taoist priests were practicing.

The two of them were welcomed into the living room, and a Taoist priest came in and served tea.

Within a few minutes, an old Taoist priest with white hair, wrinkled face and old Taoist robes walked in slowly.

Seeing this, You Qingwei hurriedly stood up to salute.

Lu Wugui was sitting cross-legged on a chair holding a cup of tea and smelling it. When she saw the old Taoist priest come in, she took a look and called out, "Hello, old Taoist Jin Chen." She went on to watch the tea.She said in her heart: "You liar, I'm here to offer incense, so I came to play with the old Taoist Jin Chen." She raised her eyes and glanced at the Taoist master Jin Chen, and saw that his injury seemed to have almost healed, even though his hair and beard were all intact. To put it bluntly, the whole person looks at least 90 years old, but the back is very straight, the eyes are not bright, but there is a faint gleam, as if a lamp is lit in the eyes.When he breathed, his breath was long and steady, and the tattered tattered Taoist robe seemed a little windless and automatic.

When You Qingwei saw Lu Wugui holding tea, squinting at Taoist priest Jin Chen, he couldn't help but glance at her.Fortunately, although Lu Wugui looks young, he has actually lived several times longer than her and Daoist Jin Chen combined, plus his ability and lack of worldly knowledge, this little impoliteness is not impolite.

Daoist Jin Chen invited You Qingwei to take a seat, greeted Lu Wugui kindly, and thanked her for helping her last time.Because there is no way to return the long eel, he is considered a blessing in disguise.

You Qingwei greeted Daoist Jin Chen with courtesy and greetings, and directly explained his intentions.Daoist Jinchen has lived to this age and has experienced countless storms and waves. You Qingwei did not dare to show off in front of him, and told Daoist Jinchen about the situation he is facing now.She said bluntly: "I don't want to get involved in the internal strife of the association for a position of vice president, and I don't want to put my family and friends in danger. After learning this skill and eating this bowl of rice, if it is right Going up against the demons and ghosts that harm one side, even death without complaint. If it is for a position and a little profit, the gain outweighs the loss. I thought, even if I give up the position of vice president, as long as I have the strength, I will inevitably be involved in this dispute. The only way to withdraw from this dispute is to withdraw from the association. However, because of Mr. Bai’s withdrawal from the association, I’m worried that someone will make trouble because of it. I’m in a dilemma, so I can only ask you for help with a salivating face.”

Daoist Jinchen understood that You Qingwei wanted him to be a guarantor.Just as he was about to say something, he caught a glimpse of Lu Wugui next to him looking a little strange, so he couldn't help but look towards Lu Wugui, and then he saw that the hair of the big ghost next to him stood on end.

Lu Wugui was really stunned when he heard You Qingwei's words.She knew that people in the association always thought she was stupid, always bullied You Qingwei when she was young, and dug pits for them to jump in, but she didn't expect that You Qingwei's situation would be so difficult that she would ask the old Taoist Jin Chen for help.She didn't know why, but when she saw You Qingwei pleading for help from Daoist Jin Chen so cautiously, she felt panicked and a little angry.

Daoist Jin Chen asked: "Master Xiaolu, what happened?"

You Qingwei quickly pushed Lu Wugui's bristling hair back for her, and stroked her head to smooth it.She found that the number of hair standing on the road has become more and more frequent recently.This is talking about things, so what's wrong with the road going nowhere?

Lu Wugui pushed back his bristling hair and said, "Get angry."

Daoist Jin Chen smiled and said, "I see." He asked, "Why are you angry?"

Lu Wugui said: "They bullied You Qingwei, and they bullied me." She thought for a while, and said, "I think they think we are easy to bully." She looked at You Qingwei and said, "You Qingwei, you don't need to ask Jin Chen for help. .You should have told me."

You Qing blinked slightly.She thought to herself, "You don't know what's going on in our family? You almost got yourself involved. Could it be that you still want to stand out on your own?"

Lu Wugui said: "What kind of eyes do you have! Let me tell you, everything has a cause and an effect, and there is something called retribution! From the point of view of cultivating ghosts, they want to harm us, I will kill them , This is karma. You see, it’s already June, we’ll hide and wait until July [-] when the gates of ghosts open, and kill them all when there are many ghosts.”

Daoist Jin Chen really didn't realize that Master Xiaolu, a big ghost, had the potential to become a ghost.However, it is not difficult to understand.The good and evil of ghosts are often just a thought, and they even turn into evil ghosts when they are provoked for a while.He said: "Master Xiaolu, even if you are practicing in the human world, it is better to use less of the technique of controlling ghosts. The closer you are to the ghosts in the underworld, the farther away you are from the people in the yangworld."

Lu Wugui felt that what Daoist Jinchen said was a bit wrong, but after thinking about it, he didn't know what was wrong.She frowned, squinting at Daoist Jin Chen.

Daoist Jinchen looked at You Qingwei, and said, "Master Xiaolu seems to have a lot of evil spirit."

You Qingwei said: "She has suffered tragic death twice, and she has slain demons and exorcised countless evils." People who die violently must have evil spirits.And there are too many demons and ghosts to kill, and the evil spirit on his body can't be lightened.The evil spirit is heavy, the murderous spirit is heavy, and the possibility of jitteriness is high.The fact that Lu Wugui wants to take advantage of the opening of the ghost gate to control ghosts and destroy the gate is really not alarmist, at least she has the strength.But if this happens, it will be difficult for the world to have nowhere to go.You Qingwei looked worriedly at Lu Wugui, and said to Priest Jin Chen: "I will take good care of her. Xiao Medai has never done anything evil in all these years."

Daoist Jin Chen nodded and said, "That's good." He changed his voice and said, "I'll write a letter later, and you forward it to President Yan. If you are in trouble, just go to Qingshan."

You Qing got up slightly, and thanked Daoist Jin Chen gratefully.

Daoist Jinchen also warned that although You Qingwei quit the association, she is still a student of Taoism, and she hopes that she can continue to maintain peace.

You Qingwei said that she is weak and weak, but if the association doesn't mind, she is willing to continue to protect the land that was assigned to her family before, and never let Sui Zijun and the others step on her land.

Daoist Jin Chen nodded, and asked someone to prepare a pen and paper, wrote a letter and put it in an envelope for You Qingwei.

You Qing thanked him slightly, turned his eyes, and asked weakly: "Master Jinchen, is Master Yimi here?"

Daoist Jinchen couldn't see You Qingwei's careful thinking, but he also understood You Qingwei's current situation, and said immediately: "Master Yimi has been able to get out of bed and walk in the past two days, and he still has the strength to write a letter. .” After speaking, he got up and went out.

You Qingwei was overjoyed, and bowed to Daoist Jinchen with a smile, thanking him.She waited for Daoist Jinchen to go far away, and then began to punish her for going nowhere.She pinched Lu Wugui's ear with her slender fingers, and said, "You are so courageous, you said in front of Taoist Master Jin Chen that you would control ghosts and destroy people everywhere." She originally wanted to pinch Lu Wugui's ear, Reluctantly, I pinched it twice, let go angrily, raised the folding fan, trying to get lost, thinking that this folding fan was specially used to fight ghosts, raised it and put it down again, and glanced angrily at nowhere Straight sigh.She said: "There are some things that you still have to avoid."

After touching for about ten minutes, a little girl about sixteen or seventeen jumped into the door bouncingly.She looked at You Qingwei, then at Lu Wugui, handed the two letters to You Qingwei, and said, "My master said, one letter is for you, and the other letter is for you to give to Chairman Yan." Yes." She jumped to Lu Wugui's side again, and said, "Are you very good?"

Lu Wugui saw at a glance that this girl was not human.Although she was blessed with the golden light of Buddha Dharma, her figure was still a little pale and transparent, and with her eyesight that could read countless people, she could tell at a glance that this girl must be young.She immediately waved her small hand and said, "Don't talk to me, newly dead ghosts."

You Qingwei read the letter in his hand at a glance, and immediately knew that this little girl was Shijiu, a lay disciple accepted by Master Yimi. Then, Master Yimi was injured and needed to rest, so he entrusted this little girl to her to look after for a while.You Qingwei is naturally happy.Then, she heard Lu Wugui say, "Don't talk to me, newly dead ghosts." She looked at Shijiu in amazement, and said to herself, "What's wrong with the ghosts in this day and age? Every one of them looks like a living person in broad daylight." Come out and jump." However, Master Yimi's disciples are not weak.Why did Master Yimi's student die at such a young age? He was still a new student.New dead? !You Qingwei vaguely remembered that Master Yimi's apprentice went to the ghost market with Master Yimi, and then, the seriously injured Master Yimi was found by the three ghosts and came back. As for his apprentice... I didn't hear anyone say it.You Qingwei immediately understood.Picking up the wine should be in the ghost market.Master Yimi's Dharma is profound, and he doesn't know how to gather her soul together, and then use the secret method of Buddhism, so that she can show up in the daytime without being afraid of the sun.

She understood instantly.Master Yimi entrusted Shijiu to her care because he needed to heal his injuries. This is because he has no experience in raising ghosts. He wants Shijiu to learn some experience from this big ghost who has no return!

She suddenly felt that Lu Wugui could open a shop in Ghost Dao to accept apprentices, and the business would definitely be booming.

So, Lu Wugui carried the letter from Daoist Jinchen and Master Yimi to her, and took two big ghosts and new ghosts of similar age who came out to dance in broad daylight, and went back silently.
