Part-Time Taoist Priest

The next day, Tang Qilai picked up Xie Lingya and Shi Changxuan. This time, he had someone to help, so he could bring all the things he needed with him.

Tang Qi is a vigorous and resolute person. He pays attention to following him personally, and even uses a laptop to work remotely in the car.In the middle, I also paid attention to the scale of Baoyang Temple.

Xie Lingya even suspected that he was also interested in Baoyang Temple, but although Baoyang Temple has become popular recently, it is small and the surrounding land is expensive, and it cannot be integrated like his resort. It is very lonely and not worthwhile.

After Tang Qi left yesterday, Shi Changxuan told Xie Lingya. According to Chen Sansheng, Tang Qi wanted to contract the Taihe Temple before, but Chen Sansheng didn't agree. He sold the tickets and planned things by himself, and it worked out pretty well. .It can be regarded as a blockbuster contracted, and behind the scenes sits the Qingliu in the temple and Taoist temple of the private owner.

It is also because there are more incenses in Taihe Temple, Tang Qicai made up his mind, and now he is developing scenic spots, he chose the temple, and brought in eminent monks.Apart from the fact that Buddhist temples are easier to build, there is not such a big market for new Taoist temples in the local area.

It took about an hour from Baoyang Temple to the land Tang Qi bought. When he arrived at the place, he saw a piece of yellow mud and some two-story mobile houses beside it.

Several people took a rest first, put their things away, and then Tang Qi poured tea himself, and said with some complacency: "Master Shi, what is the situation of my mountain?"

Shi Changxuan nodded and said, "Ups and downs."

Feng Shui uses dragons to describe the changes of mountains, because mountains are as good at changes as dragons, and looking at mountains is like looking at dragon veins.The dragon veins originate from the ancestor of the mountain—the geologists call Kunlun Mountain the ancestor of the mountain. The ancestor of the mountain extends three main dragon veins, each of which has many branches.In addition to the three dry dragons, there are three great rivers, namely the Yangtze River, the Yellow River and the Yalu River, each holding the three dry dragons.

Before looking at the mountain, it seems that you only observe one place, but in fact, you have to know the dragon veins of the world in your heart, and know its "causes and consequences" in order to make a better judgment.

Most of the mountains in Queshan Province belong to the branch of Zhongtiao Qianlong in terms of categories.The mountain range where the piece of land Tang Qi bought is a "dragon", undulating up and down, very powerful, belonging to a very rich pattern.

Shi Changxuan looked behind, and asked again: "Where is the mouth of the spring?"

Yesterday Tang Qi said that he was going to build a hot spring villa here, so Shi Changxuan asked this question.Probably not easy to see, Tang Qi took out a map and pointed it to Shi Changxuan: "We are at this location now, and the mouth of the spring is over there."

There is an old saying that the lake has thousands of years of water, and the family has thousands of years of wealth.The method of Feng Shui is to get water first, and the hot spring water gathers in front to attract wealth and energy.

Shi Changxuan nodded, "You build the villa here, and the water gathers the heart of the sky. As for the Buddhist temple, if you want to get angry, walk around for a while and see where the energy is gathered."

"Okay, haha." Tang Qi was very happy.

After resting for a while, they put on their overshoes again and went to a higher place to look for breath.Several of Tang Qi's subordinates followed, all surprised.After following Tang Qi for so long, of course I know what Tang Qi likes, but in the past, Tang Qi invited all famous Taoist priests and eminent monks, each of them was at least 50 or [-] years old. These two people were dressed in casual clothes, unlike monks. That's all, he's as young as a student.

Of course, they would later learn that one of them was indeed a student.

Xie Lingya didn't come here originally, but he was too embarrassed to sit and wait alone, and he could learn something by following Shi Changxuan, so he went climbing the mountain together.

Although there is no vegetation to be seen here, there are photos and videos these years, which are enough to prove something.Generally, the vegetation is dry, of course it is not a good place, Tang Qi will rule it out from the beginning.

The temple should be built on the mountain, so first look at the shape of the mountain. Shi Changxuan has already seen the mountain on the way and from the map just now.Then it depends on the terrain, the Qi, and the location of the acupuncture points.

Shi Changxuan held a compass in his hand, it looked very old, after all his family had been Taoist priests for generations, Xie Lingya reckoned that this compass was also passed down from the elders.

There is no compass among the things handed down from Baoyang Temple.Although there is knowledge about Fengshui in Baoyang Notes, but probably not a major, not so professional.

The compass is oriented with poles, and Shi Changxuan is only for reference. After looking at it for a few times, he fixed his eyes to check the anger in the mountain.

Xie Lingya also looked over, but didn't see any difference, and now that there was no wind, he didn't know how to look angry.

However, after looking at it for a while, Shi Changxuan pointed to one place and said, "Mr. Tang, did you see the dizziness at that place? It should be the real acupuncture point."

Not to mention Tang Qi, everyone stretched their necks to see where he was pointing.

Tang Qi scratched his head, "Is that the place? It seems to be a faint halo...... Isn't that water vapor? "

The halo was vague, if there was nothing, but the shape was distinct, but if Shi Changxuan hadn't pointed it out, they probably wouldn't be able to see it if they observed carefully.

"This is Taiji dizziness, the manifestation of condensed anger." Shi Changxuan said, "It is because if there is nothing, it is called Taiji dizziness."

"It means where is the temple going to be built?" Tang Qihan said, "That one is at the highest point."

Shi Changxuan said: "Therefore, some repairs need to be dug out to form a hole, and it needs to meet the water."

Tang Qi nodded again and again. He had heard about Shi Changxuan's family's reputation, and Chen Sansheng had also heard about Shi Changxuan's temper.Although Shi Changxuan usually speaks very simply when giving advice on Feng Shui, but the result is absolutely guaranteed.

He works in a hurry, and everything he does is done simultaneously, so as soon as the ground is photographed, the design drawing is almost done, as long as it is modified according to what Shi Changxuan said.

Shi Changxuan told the angle, how to face the water.Based on the impression I have seen from the pictures, I said some things to pay attention to, such as where the bell tower of the temple should be built, and where the main hall should not be, so that activities such as bell ringing, burning incense, and chanting scriptures in the temple will not be affected. .

Let's wait and see, Qinglong Baihu Xuanwu Suzaku and so on.

Although Tang Qi listened roughly enough, Xie Lingya was curious and asked the question, "Welcome to the water because you want to get water? Gather money?"

Shi Changxuan shook his head, "It's just one of them. The water below gathers the sky's heart, which is already a sign of wealth. The reason is that the building here is a Buddhist temple."

Because it is to choose a site for a Buddhist temple, it is necessary to take their characteristics into consideration.Flowers bloom to see the Buddha and realize the inexistence. Buddhism uses lotus as a metaphor for practice and Buddha nature. Buddhas and Bodhisattvas all sit on lotus platforms. Lotus patterns are also very common in Buddhist temples.When Sakyamuni was born, he stood on a lotus flower, and when he practiced, he took a lotus flower step by step.

Moreover, the eminent monk Tang Qi wanted to invite was the mage of the Pure Land Sect, whose nickname was "Lian Sect".

The lotus needs water even more, so Shi Changxuan's designs all consider how to borrow the water from below to support the "lotus" above while gathering vitality.

——This kind of bureau didn't exist before, and it was nameless and nameless.After all, the Buddhist disciples themselves pay attention to Fengshui where I am, and some practice Fengshui in violation of the regulations. As a foreign religion, the study of Fengshui is not deep.And Daoist Fengshui masters don't have to think about how to build Buddhist temples.

This is completely a feng shui bureau designed by Shi Changxuan according to his needs.

Xie Lingya heard him speak in such detail that he suspected that he had already done Fengshui for the Buddhist temple, but when it came to the latter, he used the existing terrain, which was obviously an exclusive customization.

Xie Lingya was in admiration when he heard it, awesome, generous, don't look at Shi Changxuan who doesn't talk much, this service attitude is really good, he has considered the location of Shi Zong so thoroughly, it is so big that he created this "Landscape for Lotus" The office is as small as a bell tower or a lecture hall.

Although Tang Qi was the one who came up with the idea and asked Taoist priests to choose the site for the Buddhist temple very magically, but after listening to it, he couldn't help saying: "Thank you, Daoist Shi knows Buddhism very well."

This is not only to have a good service attitude and be generous, but also to have an understanding of Buddhism.

Shi Changxuan said indifferently: "My major is religious studies."

Although the main direction is Taoism, other religions are also involved.

Tang Qi was amused when he heard it, "It makes sense, it makes sense."

Those of his subordinates were also sweating like crazy. They didn't expect that they were really students, but they studied religion, so it sounded like they were right?

One of them even spoke to Xie Lingya: "Xiao Daoist, are you also a religious major?"

"I'm in finance." Xie Lingya smiled at him, "And I'm not a priest."

That person: "..."

Tang Qi laughed loudly: "Mr. Xiao Xie, don't be joking. Let me tell you, Lao Wang, although Teacher Xiao Xie is not a Taoist leader, he is also a master!"

The old Wang laughed and said: "I just thought, Daoist Shi still brought financial personnel with him."

At this time, Tang Qi said: "I heard from Mr. Gao that Teacher Xiao Xie can also tell fortunes. Why don't you let Lao Wang see it?"

He didn't know if he was bored, or he just wanted to see Xie Lingya show off.

Xie Lingya has nothing to be afraid of, "Then give me your hand."

Lao Wang stretched out his hand and said, "Are you looking at the palm prints?"

Unexpectedly, Xie Lingya's finger was on his wrist, and the other hand was still supporting it, so that his hand would not shake while walking.

Except for Shi Changxuan, everyone else looked at each other in blank dismay.I have received various masters, but I have never seen such a fortune-telling.

Lao Wang couldn't help but said: "Why does it look so similar... feel the pulse..."

"It's really a pulse." Xie Lingya smiled.

Everyone: "..."

Tang Qidao: "I made a mistake, Mr. Xie, he said you should do the math, just forget about seeing a doctor. The whole company only had a physical examination for employees last month."

"No, no, this is called the Taisu pulse method. One of my brothers taught me that I can judge whether someone is good or bad through the pulse condition." Xie Lingya explained.

Tang Qi: "??"

There are so many fortune-telling methods, and Tang Qi is well-informed. He has never heard of fortune-telling by pulse, and it sounds too mysterious, but Xie Lingya's words seem to be serious, which makes Tang Qi dubious.

It's autumn now, Taisu pulse needs to be diagnosed according to the time, Xie Lingya has made great progress in Taisu pulse method after a period of training, feel Lao Wang's pulse.

In this Taisu pulse method, the judgment of fate is determined by the lightness of the pulse condition and the heavy turbidity. Generally speaking, the lightness of the pulse is rich and noble, and the heavy turbidity is poverty.Look at the specifics from each part, for example, the man's liver Kibe determines the fame.

Lao Wang's liver is relatively light, and there is no intermittent feeling, but his lungs are relatively turbid, which should be due to lack of intelligence and strategy.In fact, it's easy to guess, if he is smart and strategic, then he will be Tang Qi's leader.

Xie Lingya didn't say anything, felt the clock pulse for more than a minute and said: "The result of the physical examination last month is not bad, it's just a little problem, nothing serious."

Lao Wang nodded, "Yes, they are all minor ailments like chronic pharyngitis and trachoma."

But if you know Chinese medicine, you can see this point, you don't need to feel the pulse, just look at your face, and everyone will not be surprised.

Xie Lingya said again: "But you can rest assured, your daughter—you have a daughter, right? She will pass the college entrance examination very well."

Lao Wang almost slipped his feet in fright and went to see Tang Qi.

Tang Qi: "...I didn't say you have a daughter." In fact, he went to see Shi Changxuan yesterday, and then met Xie Lingya, and he didn't tell Xie Lingya who would be here.

Tai Sumai is like this, not only can find out the master's life, but also calculate the situation of his descendants.Lao Wang himself has nothing to worry about, but the pulse in the part that symbolizes the offspring is warm and moist, but the breath count is a bit mixed, obviously at an important juncture, and the age of this offspring is just the age of the college entrance examination.

So it can be regarded as a seven-point guess, and a three-point guess.Xie Lingya doesn't know what kind of people are those who have practiced the Tai Su Meridian to the extreme, anyway, he himself can't feel it all at present, or feel it so meticulously.For example, if you ask him to take his pulse to calculate whether he can eat meat for lunch tomorrow, he will definitely not be able to feel it.

Even if this is the case, Lao Wang admires it very much. He had a child relatively late. If he guessed it based on his age, it must be impossible.

"Thank you, teacher, it's amazing." Old Wang praised.

"I'm sorry, I'm also a beginner." Xie Lingya said honestly.

……

The practice has to be done at night, and a spell similar to that of offering sacrifices to orphans, why is it similar, because in addition to offering sacrifices to lonely souls and wild ghosts, there are additional steps, that is, deterrence, so that this place will not be disturbed by lonely souls and wild ghosts in the future .

The fortifications in the mountains do require such rituals.When it's time for construction, a few talismans will be buried in the ground.

Xie Lingya first wrote all the talismans he needed for the night. To be an ordinary Taoist priest, it would take at least ten days and a half a month to prepare so many talismans. He finished drawing them after eating as leisure, and put them aside to dry.

——Although it was on the mountain, the meals were delivered from hotels in the city. After a good meal, Tang Qi enthusiastically asked them to "soak in the hot spring".

There are hot springs underground. Although they haven't been developed yet, the workers who prepared the site here have already collected some water. They usually use authentic hot spring water for bathing.

Tang Qi was going to live on the mountain tonight, so on a whim, he even sent someone to bring a bathtub up.

These days, the hot springs in many hot spring pools are just boiled water, and the temperature on the mountain is cooler at night, Xie Lingya is quite interested.

So not long after he finished drawing the talisman, Xie Lingya took Shi Changxuan to the first floor. Tang Qi put all the bathtubs on the first floor, and put them on the second floor. This is just a prefabricated room for fear of instability.

Before going down, Shi Changxuan thought about it, and took Shang Lushen down and put it in the room.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"

Tang Qi was watching people release the water, and when he saw Xie Lingya coming over with a handkerchief, he laughed and joked: "Mr. Xie is very white, is his body so white?"

"Yes, it's not tanned." Xie Lingya also grinned.

"..." Shi Changxuan couldn't help but think of what his broken ear god said, and he was a little speechless.

Although Shang Lushen is not here, his sense of presence has inexplicably increased, and Shi Changxuan seems to be able to hear it shouting word by word in his thin voice: Xie Lingya is so white.

At this time, Lao Wang suddenly ran over, saw Tang Qi outside the window, stopped and rushed inside and said, "Mr. Tang, that, that..."

His face was very strange, and there was a little panic in the depths of his eyes.

"What's the matter?" Tang Qi went to the window and pushed all the half-open windows open.

Lao Wang swallowed, glanced at Shi Changxuan and the two behind him, and said, "I'll ask someone to gather up the bones that were dug out earlier. Isn't there a way to do it later, and then I found that the head and skull Gone."

Xie Lingya and the others knew about the corpses that had been uncovered in the field, and they had made an appointment at the time, and after performing the ceremony together, they would choose a place for burial.Because of this, Lao Wang went to fetch the bones. The thing was weird, so it was not placed in the board room, but in a corner of the construction site.

Tang Qi couldn't help getting goosebumps, and said with a dark face: "Everything is gone? Have you looked around carefully? How did you clean it up before?"

Lao Wang said weakly: "There were originally five skulls, but three of them were missing. I asked, and they were packed in baskets and covered with tarpaulins."

"Who would steal this thing!" Tang Qi was hairy and irritable.

Old Wang Han said: "Could it be that 'they' don't want to leave, that's why they..."

"Take away your own skull?" Tang Qi thought it was ridiculous, "How is it possible! You can ask, in just two days, if some villager's child from nearby came and took it away."

He knows very well that children are the most timid and the most daring, and they can do anything when they get up.

"Okay..." Lao Wang had no choice but to turn around and ask again, feeling very depressed.If the bones can't be found, then tonight's ritual can't be done either.

At this time, the water was put away, but Tang Qi was not in the mood to take a bath. He was an impatient person. After turning around a few times, he couldn't help saying: "Mr. Xie, it can't really be 'them', You don’t want to leave, do you? But when we were preparing the land here, 'they' didn't show any objection."

"It's not possible." Xie Lingya also felt weird, "As you said, if you don't want to leave, there is no need to remove your skull."

"Yes, yes, I think someone else did it." Tang Qi thought for a while, "No, I'm going to ask. You, you two, don't worry about it, just play first, and I will pay for it if it is delayed. "

He said, and hurried out.

"It's going to be all right? I gave him a talisman, and I don't think there is any evil spirit in this place." Xie Lingya said, the experience of going down the mine with Shi Changxuan told him that you should not think about gods and monsters first in everything, otherwise you will be It's easy to lose face!

Shi Changxuan also felt fine.Although the bones were found, this place has a good feng shui, and it was not a mass grave before, and there would be no evil if there were lonely ghosts.

"It doesn't matter, I sweated while climbing the mountain during the day, I'll soak for a while." Xie Lingya said, he washed it in the room just now, and the ends of his hair were a little steamy, so it can be said that he was ready for a long time.

Xie Lingya took off his clothes and sat in the bathtub in two or three movements, so fast that Shi Changxuan didn't even realize it.

There were two barrels beside them, which were naturally for Shi Changxuan and Tang Qi. Tang Qi went out, but Shi Changxuan stayed where he was for a while.

"Damn, it's really hot, hurry up and go in." Xie Lingya was in tears, thinking he couldn't get hot by himself, so he called Shi Changxuan.

He was lying on the side, with his shoulders, back and arms exposed, his fair skin was slightly flushed by the steam, and the trajectory of the water droplets sliding down from it was so clear.

Shi Changxuan's thoughts suddenly drifted, thinking that luckily he didn't bring Shang Lushen down, otherwise his voice would probably burst again...

"Cough." Shi Changxuan's throat tickled, he turned sideways to take off his clothes, and sat in the bathtub without saying a word, his cheeks were also flushed by the heat, and he looked less cold than usual.

But he usually doesn't like to talk, so Xie Lingya didn't think it was wrong.

"It's still quite comfortable, but it's a little hot when I get off." Xie Lingya wiped away his physical tears and said, "After the repair here is completed, I will bring people from Quanguan to soak... Hey, you say they Would you mind if there is a temple here, it should be okay, it’s just in the same scenic spot.”

Shi Changxuan and him were separated by more than one meter. He stared at his moist eyes for a while, and finally looked away unnaturally. He felt that the hot spring water seemed to be soaking in the hot spring water, and it seemed to be hot to the bottom of his heart, almost boiling. .

……

"I'm back." Tang Qi trotted in, took off his clothes and put them into his bathtub, "Oh, I'm going, it's still so hot, jj is going to burn me!"

Xie Lingya: "..."

Shi Changxuan: "..."

Tang Qi glanced at them, and said embarrassingly: "You young people are in good health and can bear it."

Xie Lingya didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Everyone's ability to withstand heat is different..."

It's too embarrassing to talk about this topic with someone you don't know well. Tang Qi didn't see it, but Xie Lingya couldn't continue.

As soon as Shi Changxuan saw Tang Qi, he completely woke up from the charming atmosphere, and said indifferently: "What's the matter?"

"Oh, it seems that I saw children from a nearby mountain village coming to play. I asked someone to go to the village to ask, and I must come back." Tang Qi hated the feeling of this kind of plan being disrupted, and said unhappily.

Because it was relatively hot, he put his face close to the open window. Anyway, they were all men, and there were no lesbians on the construction site.

Xie Lingya nodded, "Then it's best to come back tonight, so don't delay doing things."

"That's what I thought, otherwise I would have to wait." Tang Qi shook his head, "Hey, it's really not as good as man's calculation."

Tang Qi curled his lips and stared outside.

"Their children are too bold, comparable to when I was a child." Xie Lingya couldn't help but sigh.

Shi Changxuan: "..."

Tang Qi didn't speak.

Xie Lingya asked again: "Hey, Mr. Tang, do you want water?" The mineral water was put on the side, and he planned to get a bottle, so he asked casually.

Tang Qi still didn't speak.

Xie Lingya felt something was wrong, he was next to Tang Qi, at first glance, Tang Qi's eyes seemed to be frozen, and sitting in the hot spring water, his face was blue and white, and his teeth were clenched tightly.

"Mr. Tang??" Xie Lingya put on the towel and stood up.

Tang Qi didn't dare to turn his head, and his breathing slowed down. His lips opened and closed slightly, and he whispered tremblingly, "You, come and see, is that that..."

that?There may be ghosts?Xie Lingya stepped out of the bathtub, walked to the window and looked outside.

There are many trees behind the prefab house, and the terrain is relatively high, forming a low cliff.The moonlight was shining all over the world, and Xie Lingya saw a strange scene among the vegetation on the low cliff.

Three khaki wild foxes squatted on the stone, with their front paws folded on their chests, all facing the direction of the moon, as if they were praying. The curved sheet is like wearing a hat.

Although they were separated by a certain distance, judging by the shape and size, it was clear that they were the skulls they had been looking for for a long time.

Deep mountains, wild foxes, bones.

In the darkness of night, this scene is simply eerie and strange.

Standing next to Tang Qi, Xie Lingya could clearly hear the sound of his back molars fighting up and down.
