Let me introduce, I am a professional celestial master

Wu Wei was a little at a loss, not understanding why Ming Xingyan suddenly wanted to find the family tree of Ming's family.

Mingxing saw his doubts and explained, "Grandpa reacted strangely when he heard the name A Yuan, as if he knew this A Yuan. There is a sense of familiarity. Is there anyone who is known by my grandfather and I know it? And this person has probably not been seen for a long time, so I am both familiar and strange. Thinking about it step by step, I suddenly remembered ..."

Mingxing opened the Ming family tree, "The name A Yuan was seen in our family tree more than ten years ago when I was young."

Zai Mingxing stopped on a certain page of the genealogy, Wu Wei looked down and happened to see Ming Xingtian's name.And in front of Ming Xingtian's name, there was another name, but that name was crossed out with a red pen.

Although it was crossed out, from the cracks in the handwriting, the three characters below could barely be judged.

Wu Wei read it slowly word by word, "Ming-Guang-Yuan?"

Ming Guangyuan?

Yuan?

Wu Wei suddenly raised his head and looked at Ming Xingyan.

"I suspect that Xiexiu Ayuan is probably Ming Guangyuan." Ming Xingyan looked down at the name on the paper with a complicated expression, "I don't seem to have told you about our family's history."

The Ming family is not a family of metaphysics. The reason why Ming Xingyan and his grandfather knew metaphysics, and lived on metaphysics, and was able to tell fortunes for others, this history has to be told from Ming Xingyan's great-great-grandfather.

In the past, it was a time of war, and the flames of war raged, and the family with a strong heir eventually withered, leaving only this great-great-grandfather.When the great-great-grandfather was fleeing, he happened to meet a Taoist priest.Then the great-great-grandfather found out that this Taoist priest had some abilities and skills. In order to survive, his great-great-grandfather had the idea of ​​becoming a Taoist and worshiping this Taoist priest as his teacher.

Of course, the Taoist didn't intend to accept his great-great-grandfather at first, saying that he had no karma.The great-great-grandfather was at the end of his life at the time, and he was at the end of the road, so there was no reason for him to be destined, and he was very stubborn, and he would go all the way to the dark if he made a decision.If you want to enter the Tao, you must enter the Tao.

The great-great-grandfather was still a little clever. He saw that the Taoist priest refused to accept him, and he didn't force him. He just stayed by his side and rushed to help if there was anything he needed.Even in danger, the great-great-grandfather did not run away, but instead protected the Taoist priest first.

People's hearts grow with flesh, and gradually, this Taoist priest was also moved by his great-great-grandfather.

But it is a pity that when the Taoist priest was about to accept his great-great-grandfather as a disciple, another war broke out.In order to save people, the Taoist sacrificed tragically in the end.And what he left to his great-great-grandfather were only a few notebooks in his luggage.

Later, great-great-grandfather relied on these notes and handwritten letters to fumble and learn, but it was considered a small achievement, and he lived a peaceful old age.It is a pity that the great-great-grandfather was not married until his death.

However, although he was single all his life, in order to pass on what he had learned, his great-great-grandfather adopted his great-grandfather, Ming Yingping, in his later years.

With the precepts and deeds of his great-great-grandfather, and the notes and letters of that Taoist priest, Ming Yingping's knowledge of metaphysics soon surpassed that of his great-great-grandfather.

After the great-great-grandfather passed away, only Ming Yingping remained in the Ming family.But Ming Yingping was not alone, because he soon met a like-minded woman, his great-grandmother.After the great-grandfather and great-grandmother met, they quickly fell in love and lived a harmonious and happy life.

It's just a pity that Ming Yingping and his great-grandmother passed away in the seventh year of their love.Ming Yingping was only in his 30s at that time, because the death of his great-grandmother hit him too hard, so he gave up the idea of ​​remarrying.

Ming Yingping and his great-grandmother had no children because they had no plans to remarry, so Ming Yingping followed the example of his great-great-grandfather and adopted a child in order to pass on what he had learned.

Logically speaking, this child should be Mingxing's grandfather Mingxingtian.

But before Ming Xingtian was adopted by Ming Yingping, Ming Yingping actually adopted a child, Ming Guangyuan whose name was crossed out in the genealogy.

When Ming Guangyuan changed his surname to Ming, his surname was Rong Guangyuan.

At that time, Rong Guangyuan was adopted by Ming Yingping. He was already a boy of thirteen or fourteen years old.Coincidentally, the process of Ming Yingping adopting Rong Guangyuan is very similar to the plot of his great-great-grandfather worshiping a Taoist priest as his teacher.

Originally, Ming Yingping planned to adopt a baby under the age of five, whose personality and memory had not yet formed.For a young man like Rong Guangyuan who is already sensible and has his own ideas, it is actually not very suitable for Ming Yingping's choice.

This is the same as the parents in China, most of them prefer to adopt babies or children under the age of five or six, because children at this age will not remember things about their biological parents, and it is easier to develop relationships.

However, Rong Guangyuan was very similar to his great-great-grandfather. After knowing Ming Yingping's skills, he had the idea of ​​worshiping Ming Yingping as his teacher.In order to become Ming Yingping's apprentice, Rong Guangyuan is even more rascal and diligent than his great-great-grandfather back then.

As for Rong Guangyuan's fate in 11 years BC, it can actually be described as miserable and tragic.

The year Rong Guangyuan was born happened to be hit by a flood, and his father died in the flood.Because of the flood, the village fell into famine for a period of time. During this famine, his grandparents starved to death one after another.

At that time, the villagers may have been overwhelmed by the continuous disasters, so they directed their frustration at Rong Guangyuan's mother, claiming that the child she was pregnant with was a disaster, not only hurting their own family members, but also hurting them. people in the village.

Rong Guangyuan may really be the reincarnation of the disaster star.When he was born, his mother died of dystocia.

Later, thanks to his grandfather and grandmother, Rong Guangyuan did not starve to death.But he was not doing well at his grandfather and grandmother's house.Although they raised Rong Guangyuan, they did not regard Rong Guangyuan as a real family member.In their hearts, they also felt that Rong Guangyuan was a disaster star who could restrain his father and mother.

Rong Guangyuan can often see their fear and fear of him in the eyes of his grandfather and grandmother.

When Rong Guangyuan was five years old, his grandfather fell seriously ill. When he was sick, he cursed or complained to Rong Guangyuan more than once.The grandfather felt that it was Rong Guangyuan who restrained himself, so that he could face death.

In fact, everyone knows that the death of his grandfather has nothing to do with Rong Guangyuan, but out of the mentality of "my bad luck is caused by others", people prefer to set a target for themselves and vent their displeasure and resentment on it. Make yourself happy and cheerful.

And at that time, there was not enough to eat, and people were looking for something to divert their attention and vent their dissatisfaction.At the same time, don't forget that it was a very feudal and unpeaceful era, and even a bad name could make people avoid it and be superstitious.

After Rong Guangyuan's grandfather passed away, his grandmother may have been more indifferent to Rong Guangyuan because of the blow, whether it was the resentment of the dead husband or the oppression of life.Sometimes, grandma seems to have forgotten the existence of Rong Guangyuan, and only prepares her own portion of food, and Rong Guangyuan has been hungry several times because of this.

It can be said that Rong Guangyuan's life is even more difficult without his grandfather.

Rong Guangyuan endured white eyes and abuse from his grandmother at home, and he also suffered bullying from his peers and disgust from the villagers in the village.

When Rong Guangyuan was seven or eight years old, with the death of his only family member, Rong Guangyuan completely lost his home.

At that time, every family couldn't eat enough for themselves, let alone help raise other people's children, not to mention Rong Guangyuan, the disaster star who had always been disliked and feared by them.Moreover, the villagers were already very dissatisfied with Rong Guangyuan growing up in their village.

No matter what happened in the village at that time, as long as it was bad, the villagers would put their blame on Rong Guangyuan, thinking that Rong Guangyuan brought the bad luck.

Even when some family members got sick, they didn't have the money to treat them, and in the end, they would think that it was Rong Guangyuan's fault when the family members passed away.

Without the protection of my grandfather and grandmother, the only food and houses left in the family were quickly robbed by the villagers.Not to mention protecting the food, sometimes Rong Guangyuan couldn't even save his own life.As long as he shows a little bit of dissatisfaction, he will be beaten violently.

Later, nine-year-old Rong Guangyuan began his five-year wandering career because he couldn't survive in the village.

A nine-year-old child, even five years later, will be just a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, not even 15 years old.Because of his age and long-term malnutrition, Rong Guangyuan actually did very little work during his five-year wandering career. It's not that he didn't want to do it, but that no one wanted to hire him.

For the same price, others are more willing to hire adults who are stronger and more powerful than him.

From the age of nine to 12, Rong Guangyuan made a living by begging and the occasional petty theft.When I was thirteen or fourteen years old, I grew up a little bit, relying on my ability to speak well, talk to people, and talk to ghosts, Rong Guangyuan finally entered a place of love and moon through acquaintance, and became a little girl in it. fellow.This is the most respectable job in his wandering career.

Although being a servant sometimes gets angry with guests and madams, compared to the days of begging and thieves in the past, this kind of life with tiles covering your head and not having to hurt your stomach every day is so wonderful to Rong Guangyuan What a beautiful heaven and earth.

Rong Guangyuan finally got a good life, but God seems to be a little bit embarrassed.When Rong Guangyuan imagined that he would work hard, marry a wife and have children, and live a happy and harmonious future, the war broke out again.

The land of Fengyue was bombed into ruins.The madam who scolded him; the friends who joked with him and were fellow servants; those who laughed at him and rewarded him with pastries...all died in this war.

The dream was shattered just like that, and Rong Guangyuan was forced to start a wandering career again.

It was also during his wanderings that he met Ming Yingping.

After the boy's job was gone, Rong Guangyuan went back to be his beggar.And on the street where he was begging, rumors of ghosts spread in a high mansion compound.At that time, there was panic in the street, and everyone was worried that they would be implicated.

But Rong Guangyuan scoffed at such rumors very much, and even felt a little disgusted.But I have to say, because of the haunting, Rong Guangyuan has made things easier.

Due to the impact of the haunting incident, some residents on the street moved away, and some houses were bought and could not be moved here, so they packed up their clothes and dragged their families to their natal homes or relatives' homes to avoid the limelight.As soon as these people left, many houses were vacant on a street.

And these empty houses became Rong Guangyuan's target.

Rong Guangyuan would sneak into these empty houses in the dark and find a lot of food. In those few days, he really had a big belly every day, and he didn't worry about eating or drinking.Rong Guangyuan even regarded himself as half the owner of these houses, picking a room in turn every day to live in, sleeping in the largest bed and covering with the warmest quilt.

During those days, Rong Guangyuan sincerely hoped that the haunted rumors would continue, and even become more violent.

But happiness is always short-lived. The haunted family soon invited Ming Yingping, a ghost catcher.

Rong Guangyuan hated Ming Yingping very much at the beginning, thinking that Ming Yingping was here to destroy his job.He hoped that Ming Yingping would be a second-rate Taoist priest, like that old fortune-teller who pretended to be blind on the street before, with no real skills, just a liar.

I hope so, but Rong Guangyuan is somewhat worried when he sees Ming Yingping's demeanor.I'm afraid that the other party will really catch ghosts and let my beautiful little days slip away.

In order to ascertain whether Ming Yingping really had the ability, but also with the mentality of sabotage, Rong Guangyuan found an opportunity and sneaked into the scene when Ming Yingping tried to catch ghosts.

Rong Guangyuan didn't believe in ghosts at the time, and he originally planned to secretly release a mouse in the middle of ordering Yingping to do the trick, which messed up the matter.

Who knew that Ming Yingping would actually find out a female ghost later, and everyone present, including Rong Guangyuan, was terrified.Rong Guangyuan was so scared that he even forgot his original purpose.

Later, according to Ming Yingping's retelling, he caught the ghost, received the money, and just walked out of the employer's gate when he realized that someone was following him.That era was already very turbulent and chaotic, and Ming Yingping thought he had encountered robbers and thieves.

Unexpectedly, in the end, a dirty and muddy child threw himself at his feet, yelling that he intended to worship him as a teacher.

As mentioned above, Rong Guangyuan did not meet Ming Yingping's choice, so Ming Yingping did not agree to take Guangyuan in this meeting.

Rong Guangyuan was not discouraged either, so he set his sights on Ming Yingping and followed Ming Yingping all the way to the other party's residence.After knowing where Ming Yingping lived, Rong Guangyuan would always deliver a portion of food every day, sometimes a few fish, sometimes some fresh fruit and a few big steaming meat buns.

Ming Yingping had actually gotten to know Rong Guangyuan before, and knew that he was a beggar for a living, a little beggar who couldn't even provide for his own food and clothing.So he never understood where Rong Guangyuan got these foods.

Later, Yingping was ordered to take up a business of catching ghosts. When he passed a certain rice shop, he found out that Rong Guangyuan had found a job as a rice bearer by some method.

In addition to being a store, this rice store is also the largest granary in the city.The rice shipped and delivered every day is calculated in tons.It is conceivable how hard the people who work there are. Before Ming Yingping heard that a worker who worked in the rice store for three months almost broke his waist.

But after all the hard work, the rice shop pays a lot. If you work in a rice shop for a day, you can save a little bit of wages for that day, and you can feed your family for three days.

So no matter how tiring the work is, there are still many people who want to squeeze in when their heads are broken.Like the one who almost broke his waist, the three months' salary alone was enough for him to save a lot of savings.After that, as long as you save some money, you can live a peaceful life for a few years.

Rong Guangyuan works in a rice store, which can explain why he has money to buy food and send it to Ming Yingping.

Ming Yingping looked at the thin and frail Rong Guangyuan carrying big bags of rice in and out, sweating profusely and squeezed next to the taller and stronger workers, and finally felt a little pity.

But that's not why he agreed to adopt Rong Guangyuan.

Knowing that Rong Guangyuan worked in the rice store, Ming Yingping's attitude towards Rong Guangyuan was much gentler.Rong Guangyuan still sent him food every day. Ming Yingping didn't accept it before, but now Ming Yingping accepts it. But at the same time, he also sent Rong Guangyuan a few books for reading.

One evening later, Ming Yingping passed the rice store again and found that Rong Guangyuan was seriously reading the book Ming Yingping gave him during the rare break time when the workers were eating and chatting. I forgot to eat.

In the end, when the rest time was about to end and they had to continue working, the worker next to Rong Guangyuan stabbed him, and he came back to his senses and finished the dinner in a hurry.

When Ming Yingping was about to leave, he also heard several workers discussing Rong Guangyuan's forgetting to eat and sleep to read.What is it like reading a book while eating, and reading a book when others are sleeping, treating that book as a treasure, and others can't even touch it.

Ming Yingping was a little silent, and he didn't expect Rong Guangyuan to be so serious with just a few books.

Later, when Rong Guangyuan brought the food, he ordered Yingping to think about it and remind him from time to time.In the process of raising points carefully, Ming Yingping found that Rong Guangyuan has a very high IQ, and he is very smart.

For example, in the few books given to him before, without anyone teaching him, he was able to recognize the characters at least seventy-eight, and he was able to write them silently.

Who doesn't like this kind of talented and intelligent child who can be serious and obedient once he is taught?Ming Yingping is not an exaggeration.

While teaching Ming Guangyuan, Ming Yingping experienced great satisfaction in being a teacher.At that time, he almost regarded Rong Guangyuan as a half-disciple in his heart.

What really made Ming Yingping decide to take Rong Guangyuan in was when he saw Rong Guangyuan give the money he earned to a few beggars around seven or eight years old one day. Those little beggars were not grateful to the other party, but after the other party left, Ming Yingping was greatly touched by the scene of laughing and scolding him for being a fool.

Later, Ming Yingping learned that Rong Guangyuan was called a "disastrous star" because of rumors about his father and mother when he was a child. He was robbed of his house and food, and lived on the street at a young age. Ming Yingping's heart softened.

In Ming Yingping's eyes, Rong Guangyuan is already a helpful, tenacious, smart and kind child.

After deciding to adopt Rong Guangyuan, Rong Guangyuan took the initiative to ask to take Ming Yingping's surname.Ming Yingping adopted Rong Guangyuan as a son to pass on the Ming family, so he was very moved by Rong Guangyuan's initiative to change his name, and later taught Rong Guangyuan knowledge without reservation.

In this way, Ming Yingping adopted Rong Guangyuan, and the two began to live as both father and teacher.

And as they lived together for a long time, Ming Yingping hurt Rong Guangyuan even more.At the same time, Ming Yingping also realized more clearly how smart Rong Guangyuan is.

In just ten short years, Rong Guangyuan almost emptied the ink in Ming Yingping's stomach.At that time, the only difference between Rong Guangyuan and Ming Yingping was some practical experience.As long as Rong Guangyuan has more practice, when his experience increases, Ming Yingping may not have much chance of winning against him.

Ming Yingping is very happy about the growth of Rong Guangyuan's strength.At that time, Ming Yingping thought that under the leadership of Rong Guangyuan, their family could reach a new height.Who knew... Rong Guangyuan, who had been placed with high hopes, did not become the one who carried forward his fortune in the end.

When Rong Guangyuan was 26 years old, Ming Yingping was also old and had limited energy. In order for Rong Guangyuan to be an excellent family member and to allow him to accumulate more experience, he began to decentralize power appropriately. The land was handed over to Rong Guangyuan.

After the Ming family's business was transferred to Rong Guangyuan, everything was done very well. Slowly, Rong Guangyuan's reputation spread, and Ming Yingping was faintly suppressed.

Ming Yingping is very pleased and proud.Later, seeing that Rong Guangyuan handled things properly, he became a shopkeeper and seldom asked about business matters.

After a year like this, Ming Yingping saw a valuable pocket watch at home one day.Rong Guangyuan explained to him that this pocket watch was temporarily kept by one of his guests, and he would return it later.

Ming Yingping didn't believe this, and it was also this incident that suddenly made Ming Yingping realize that Rong Guangyuan and himself grew up, and the black and thin boy in his impression was different.

Every time Rong Guangyuan went out, he must wear a neat and sleek suit; he ordered Yingping to go out with him in a rickshaw, and every time he gave a very generous reward; Guangyuan took him to the best restaurant in the city, and he was very proficient at ordering dishes; when they were at home, they would eat meat every now and then; Accidentally ironed the clothes with a small hole, Ming Yingping was reluctant to throw them away, and when he took the clothes to sew and mend, Rong Guangyuan once said after seeing it, "Throw it away quickly, it won't cost much to buy one." In a word...

Previously, Ming Yingping only thought that Rong Guangyuan felt sorry for him, and didn't pay attention to these details.Now I feel that after Rong Guangyuan changed, some of the things Rong Guangyuan did in the past are now intriguing.

Later, Ming Yingping observed Rong Guangyuan carefully for a period of time, and found that Rong Guangyuan's words that "the pocket watch is someone else" were actually lying to him.The owner of that pocket watch was Rong Guangyuan, and Rong Guangyuan was more than just such an expensive item.Even the price of a set of suits in his closet is worth the annual expenditure of an ordinary family.

Ming Yingping even found several wads of coins in his room!
