Huai'an Temple

"Fire and thunder bite, and the shock is thunder. Wife's wealth Wuxu Gouchen, official ghost Youjin, brother Yinmu Suzaku. Yang Yao nine, Yin Yao six." Shen Tuan's left thumb quickly poked the three joints of the other four fingers , a total of twelve segments, representing the twelve earthly branches.There is a plum blossom hexagram in the right hand.

While counting, he read out the hexagram.

The man opposite the stone table looked at Xue Zhu in confusion.The old god Xue Zhu took over the conversation: "The immortal master has figured it all out! You left your brothers when you were six years old, and your parents when you were 15 years old. Your six relatives are like coals of ice. You just got married when you were 21 years old."

The fortune teller's expression was astonished, and he cupped his hands repeatedly at Shen Tuan: "The fairy master is amazing!! Not bad at all." Shen Tuan bowed gracefully.

Xue Zhu said again: "My lord, you have a good fortune all your life, so it's best to be a businessman. It's only in the year of Xu that it's easy to lose money, so you have to pay attention."

The opposite side nodded again and again in thanks.

Xue Zhu glanced at Shen Tuan: "Ah, there is nothing else. This is five coins."

If you are close, you will stay overnight, if you are long, you will be on the top.In July, there will be fire, and until the Mid-Autumn Festival.Shen and Xue really walked all the way, all the way.The mountains and rivers pay, borrow the moon to support the wind.

Seeing the fortune teller left, Shen Tuan turned to look at Xue Zhu: "He has been talking all his life, and at the age of 36 he lost his fortune and relatives. At the age of 45, his wife died and his son was scattered..."

Xue Zhu hurriedly shook his hands: "We are fortune-telling, not scolding. This cannot be said!"

Shen Tuan didn't seem to understand, so he closed his mouth and stopped asking.

After a while, another man dressed as an official, with a boy of five or six years old, sat down in front of the stone table and asked: "These two days I heard that a fairy teacher with excellent hexagrams came from another place. Show me." As he spoke, he took out a string of copper coins from his sleeve.

Shen Tuan stared at the boy for a while according to his words, and then took the birthday horoscope.With just one glance, he shook his head, pushed back the copper coins on the table, and said, "It doesn't count if Yinshou passed Wang Palace and killed Ding Mao."

Xue Zhu hurriedly grabbed Shen Tuan under the table, and rushed to say: "Ah! Well, the young master has a strong character and a masculine face. He has a brother from a concubine, right?"

The officer on the opposite side heard that Shen Tuan's words did not look good, and his face was not friendly. When he asked, he nodded and said: "There is indeed a brother and a brother."

Xue Zhu nodded and said: "That's right, him, Brother Yi Fangke, just keep them away! Best, don't see each other."

The official led the boy away with a look of disdain.

Shen Tuan looked at Xue Zhu again.Xue Zhu shook his head fiercely: "He died young at the hands of his brothers! I understand! But this is even more unspeakable, this is easy to be beaten!!"

Shen Tuan was stunned for a while, then suddenly smiled.Light rain and wind, bright moon and stars.Xue Zhu cleaned up the paper, pens and coins on the table, took his hand, and walked slowly.

At dusk, when he came to an old Taoist temple, Xue Zhu knocked on the door, but there was no answer for a while.

Xue Zhu scratched his head: "Master, why don't we go back to Yongji Town? Otherwise...I'm afraid we will sleep in the open."

Shen Tuan stared straight at him without any response.Xue Zhu hesitated, but also looked at him.Shen Tuan narrowed his eyes imperceptibly, and turned his cheek to the side.Xue Zhu was taken aback, turned around and lowered his head slightly, pressed his lips against Shen Tuan's face, and said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "Why are you happy, we have no place to live here."

The corner of Shen Tuan's mouth curved up, and he looked up at him.In the past two years, Xue Zhu's figure has gradually grown, and he is slightly taller than Shen Tuan.Sylphy is bright and beautiful, Fengshen is handsome.

Shen Tuan reached into his bosom, seemed to feel for a while, and took out two ultimatums.And a South China scripture.Looking at Xue Zhu, he said: "Untie the sword." Xue Zhu quickly untied both swords and handed them to him.

Shen Tuan put the two swords together and whisked the scriptures.They are all placed in front of the mountain gate of the small Taoist temple.He straightened his clothes, knocked on the door again, and asked loudly: "You know the guest is merciful." After a while, a sentence came out from the temple: "Be polite."

Xue Zhu was taken aback, he thought there was no one in the Taoist temple.I thought in my heart that I might not be able to become a monk halfway.Quickly bowed his head and stood behind Shen Tuan.

After a while, the door opened, and an old Taoist priest walked out, bowed to Shen Tuanji, and said, "Please sit down."

Shen Tuan returned the salute and sat on the ground with his arms folded.When Xue Zhu saw it, he hurriedly knelt down and followed suit, imitating the example.Look at the nose with the eyes, and watch the heart with the nose.I thought what is this for?Do I have to match the code for a one-night stay?

The old Daoxiu picked up the certificate and looked at the South China Sutra, and asked: "Isn't Xiugui up and down? Where did he come from? Did he live long? What Taoism did he cultivate?"

Shen Tuan replied: "The disciple's family name is Shen, and his single name is Tuan. He came here from Huai'an on a cloud tour. He didn't dare to bother him. He only stayed overnight. His Taoist name is Yiheng."

The old Taoist looked at Xue Zhu and asked, "Is Xianxiu up or down?"

Xue Zhu didn't say a word, Shen Tuan replied: "My apprentice, Xue Zhu, has been with me since he was a child. He is filial and fraternal, and he behaves respectfully."

In Xue Zhu's mind, Huang Zhong and Da Lu buzzed and hummed.His face was flushed red by the evaluation of these words.Hate the sky without thunder, hate the ground seamlessly.

The old Taoist turned over the Nanhua Sutra again, and said: "The old man observes the rules, but he memorizes the scriptures for the first time. 'It's just as it is, and if it is, then it's over'".

Shen Tuan then continued: "Plus, the water is not thick enough, so he has no strength to carry the big boat." Then he continued a few more sentences without stagnation.

The old Daoxiu saluted again: "You two, please go ahead." Putting down the scriptures and certificates, he went back to the meditation.

Shen Tuan stood up, raised his eyebrows, tilted the corners of his mouth, and looked down at Xue Zhu condescendingly with a teasing face.

Xue Zhu didn't dare to get up, he was at a loss, flustered and short of breath.I thought it was over, it was over, I kissed him just now!this this...

Shen Tuan bent down and said in a low voice: "Isn't it? This is called a pending order! You are still too young, Daoist Xue?"

Daoist Xue, Xue Zhu was even more sure, with a bitter expression on his face: "Master, Master...you, you...me." Speech was incoherent, and cold sweat broke out.Finally covering his face with his hands, he was so ashamed and angry: "Master, please forgive me!"

Shen Tuan kicked him: "Get up, why are you pretending to respect your teacher?"

The two had to enter the temple and found a wing room.Xue Zhu habitually followed him into the room, suddenly he was taken aback, and turned his head to escape.

Shen Tuan stretched out his hand and grabbed it back.Pressed to the edge of the bed and sat down, bent over and asked in his ear: "What are you running for? Where are you going?" The voice was deep and soft, hoarse and numb.

Xue Zhu talked about him from left to right: "Master, you, when will you recover? Don't tell me either."

Shen Tuan smiled: "Probably, probably last time, when you had to let me take a bath in the river with you. Or...the last time you had to let me count the time limit for that dog? Or... .that is..."

Xue Zhu thought that he was sober, seeing his misbehavior for so many days, his face was burning hot, and he dared not answer.Standing up, he picked up Nanming, and said: "Ah, that's right, yes, on the road of returning to the soul, I broke Nanming, and I can't forge it. Let's... fix it."

Shen Tuan took the sword and put it aside, nodded: "It's okay, as long as you are fine."

Xue Zhu turned around and didn't dare to look at him, Shen Tuan stretched out his hand to caress Xue Zhu's back, and said softly: "It's hard for you..."

Xue Zhu's shoulders twitched, and he turned around suddenly, barely knocking him down.Shen Tuan stood firm and put his hands around him in his arms.

Xue Zhu trembled all over, strangled him tighter and tighter, buried his face in his neck, his chest was pounding wildly.Shen Tuan bent down and picked up his legs, hugged him horizontally, put him on the bed, and said: "Today I will sleep outside, don't worry."

Hearing him say you don't worry, Xue Zhu collapsed on the bed, his eyes were red and his voice was hoarse: "Master, I don't want to sleep, I have a lot to say to you."

Shen Tuan smiled: "Why worry, we will have a long time to come."

Turning around, Xue Zhu chattered behind Shen Tuan, from Huangquan Road to Naihe Bridge to Cui Jianrong, from fierce gods to hungry ghosts.

"Master, as soon as Tang Zhenjun appeared on the stage, I cried on the spot! You don't know, I was so frightened that my legs went limp!" Xue Zhu said dancing.

Shen Tuan rolled his eyes and said, "You have already mentioned Tang Huanran three times, why don't you find an intersection? Call him?"

Xue Zhu waved his hands and said, "I'm fine. What are you calling him for? Whenever I see him, I cry until I get a headache."

Shen Tuan curled his lips and asked: "Are you still playing fortune-telling? Did you go back for the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

Xue Zhu said with a smile: "It's also your fault that you didn't slip away. You fooled around with me, saying that the palace killed Ding Mao, and Bo Shou died early."

Shen Tuan said: "Everyone has his own destiny, and I'm not wrong. Didn't you just say that there are no young and old on the road to Huangquan?"

Xue Zhu came up and pointed to his face: "Master Immortal, do the math for me too."

Shen Tuan lazily said: "Restrain fathers and mothers and wives and sons, study and kill classmates, farm and kill neighbors, work hard and lose money."

Xue Zhu's face turned green: "Stop it, stop it, Master Xian, do you think I live a long life?"

Shen Tuan had a weird expression on his face, and said in embarrassment: "What age do you think is longevity for me...?"

Xue Zhu was taken aback for a moment, and simply asked: "You just say when I will die!"

Shen Tuan's eyebrows trembled: "Didn't you die last year?"

Xue Zhu laughed loudly: "The immortal master really works hahahaha, that's right!"
