Old Fogey Goes Down The Mountain

Wei Xi didn't take the group of ghosts in Gangyue Building seriously at first, but unexpectedly, their business ability was surprisingly good.

As soon as the mediation activity was launched, it received enthusiastic responses. Many local Taoist temples even sent an olive branch to Taicangzong, an unknown sect that had just been established, through Kuang Zhiming. When you encounter such a difficult business that you have to do, when you encounter such a dojo, your mentality is actually similar to that of Kuang Zhiming.

Wei Xi heard a small industry story from Kuang Zhiming.

The protagonist of the story is Taoist Master Feng of Fengnian Temple. A few years ago, a family of believers invited him to do the Taoist temple.When Daoist Feng heard this, of course he immediately followed to do the ritual, set up a sacrificial table, and begged the souls of the family of believers to leave on their own.But the dead soul was very stubborn, refused to leave no matter what, and his attitude was so fierce that he couldn't communicate at all, and even tried to attack the owner.Daoist Feng didn't know what was going on, and of course he was protecting human beings when he saw this, so he fought fiercely with the ghost with a mahogany sword.

The female ghost was already very weak before she disappeared, she couldn't even speak, she could only stare at Daoist Feng with bloodshot eyes and weep.

When the owner's family learned that the female ghost had disappeared, they were grateful to Daoist Feng, and offered Fengnian a 3 yuan ever-burning lamp.Daoist Feng was puzzled by the ghost's tears before she died, and he still brooded about it after a long time, so one time when he had an opportunity, he asked someone to inquire about the situation of the owner of the house.

Unexpectedly, the final result was unexpected. Before the house was overturned, the wife of a hero lived in it.Her husband left home to fight, and there was no news of her, so she stayed at home all year round and refused to leave until she died.Before her death, she was worried that her husband's soul would not find her when she returned home, so she asked her relatives to bury her under the soil in front of the door.

The owner of the dojo later also said that he illegally built the basement before encountering evil. The construction team dug out a skeleton that had been buried for many years during the excavation process. The owner was worried about bad luck, and because of his illegal construction, If they didn't dare to call the police, they asked them to take them away and throw them away.

After that incident, Dao Feng fell ill and felt so guilty that he almost wanted to give up and continue to run the Taoist temple.

With a single thought, he buried a ghost that had been buried deep underground and had been waiting for her husband for decades.But even if this matter were replaced by Kuang Zhiming or any other Taoist, what could be done?

The contradiction between death and life is sometimes so irreconcilable. If a living person makes a big mistake unintentionally, isn't it a mistake?But as a cultivator, could it be possible to watch their family being liquidated and tortured?

The responsibility of Taoism is far heavier than the world's imagination. When right and wrong are not clear, any choice at both ends of the balance will carry evil that is difficult to eliminate.

However, this time, the owners of the three coffins were finally persuaded by several old ladies, and on the condition of a dojo offering and New Year's sacrifices in the next three years, they voluntarily agreed to have their bodies cremated and buried in a local mass grave garden.

Of course, the current owner of the house couldn’t wish for it, but without this, Kuang Zhiming would have had no choice but to expel those Taoist spirits into wild ghosts against his conscience based on the tough attitude shown in the early stage of the mediation. How could there be a win-win outcome today?

Therefore, although Kuang Zhiming still felt that the mediation team organized by Taicangzong was very speechless, he was somewhat grateful in his heart. Not only did he connect Wei Xi with several other Taoist temples he was familiar with, but he also offered to invite: "Fellow Daoist Wei, you Have you received a Buddhist ritual recently? If not, I have a well-paid job here, and believers have invited many Taoist temples, so I can recommend you to join together."

Wei Xi: "Huh? What dojo?"

Kuang Zhiming said: "It's an invitation from a film crew. The investor of the crew has strong financial resources. I don't know if you have heard of it. The person in charge is named Qiu Guokai. Their company recently invested in a supernatural fantasy movie. It is said that something happened after the film was launched. A lot of weird things."

***

As it turned out, Qiu Guokai had already come without his active recommendation.

After not seeing him for a while, he became even more unbelievably fat, and his whole body seemed to be dripping with oil.

Wei Xi only glanced at it, then quietly said to the second disciple beside him: "It seems that after his mother bought your charm, she really touched the spatula."

The second apprentice sat quietly beside him all the time, and he was not moved when he heard this. He only stretched out his arms to stop Wei Xi from approaching when Qiu Guokai rushed forward to greet Wei Xi enthusiastically as before.

Poor Qiu Guokai, an ABC who studied abroad since he was a child, has never been able to hug Wei Xi successfully since he met him.His forehead was pinned down, and his eyes couldn't help turning away from Wei Xi. He glanced at Wei Xi's handsome little apprentice who exuded an unfriendly temperament all over his body. After thinking about it, he flinched and begged. Second, embrace solidarity.

Tuanjieyi put his arms around his shoulders enthusiastically: "Mr. Qiu, your face is rosy and you look good!"

"Don't mention it." Qiu Guokai showed a sad expression, "The marriage can be regarded as divorced, and the child was taken away by her, but fortunately, it was not discovered by the media. Sigh, why do you think this happened? He was so innocent and innocent before getting married. , the hysterical appearance during the divorce... really hurt me."

His father was also so angry that he beat him hard.

However, thinking of being able to reunite with his mother who had passed away for many years now, Qiu Guokai regained his energy, and looked at Wei Xi gratefully: "Master Wei, I took the liberty to visit this time, but I still have something to ask for."

After struggling to move his whole body and sat down, he slowly explained: "At the beginning of this year, our company invested in a fantasy movie called "Scream", which tells the story of ancient goblins and ghosts. Turning on the machine, unexpected accidents kept happening, which made the crew panic."

He sighed: "It was okay at the beginning. The first part of the show was filmed in a studio, and at most it was not going well at that time. Later, when the filming began, the entire crew moved to Maohua Mountain in the neighboring province. From the hotel in the mountains to the shooting scene, the staff members often reported that the environment was gloomy. Our company didn’t pay attention at the beginning. You know, there are some elements of that in ghost movies. In the past Many ghost film crews have also reported similar news, saying that the actors have stayed in the crew environment for a long time, and they have been too involved in the play, so similar hallucinations will appear."

"I thought so too. But last week, the crew was going to film a relatively large fighting scene, probably a plot like a battle between gods and monsters. The crew didn't have enough people, so they pulled two cars from outside the mountain to perform it. Who knows that these groups have not been in the evolution for a long time, and they all said that they encountered ghosts and felt that they were being watched by ghosts. Some of them said that they heard scolding, and some said that the costumes they handed out were inexplicably It was torn into pieces. I guess it was because I was afraid, and I refused to shoot the scene, so I ran away with my own toll, and it didn’t take long to pass the news to the paparazzi. Anyway, this matter is now making a lot of noise on the Internet, and some netizens scolded us for hype Some scolded us for not taking actors seriously, and the impact was particularly bad."

"Actually, I just wanted to invite you to go at the beginning." Qiu Guokai said, "But the board of directors of the company means that the truth of this matter is not clear at present, so it is better to make the scene bigger. You don't know, there are several people in the group. The actors are so frightened that they want to run away, if you go more, it can make them feel at ease. You don't have to worry about the compensation."

**

The gold card member's request, coupled with the generous reward, naturally needless to say the result.

After Qiu Guokai finished his request, he put a stick of incense on the Taicang Zong's newly appointed Dedao Tianzun, and promised to light an everlasting lamp for the Zongmen's Tianzun after the matter was resolved.

Eternal lanterns are another criterion for judging the prosperity of Taoist temples besides incense. Wei Xi was immediately moved. According to Kuang Zhiming, there are more than a dozen believers lighting everlasting lanterns in their temples, but there is none in Taicangzong.

So before he left, he was in a happy mood. When he passed by the incense burner, he reached out to touch it, and said with a sneer, "Wait, you will have a lamp soon."

Although the wall of the incense burner in winter is made of brass, it is not cold to the touch for some reason. It is probably smoked by the incense of the increasing number of believers.

But Tuanjieyi took a strange look into the incense burner, and felt that he seemed to have an illusion, was it the cause of the wind?Why did the incense in the furnace suddenly burn so brightly?

Shuo Zong also heard the voice of Mrs. Wang, who had inexplicably consumed a lot of incense today, excitedly talking to others: "It's really a good spirit to get Taoism!"

"..."

Seeing his expression, Wei Xi asked, "What's wrong?"

Shuo Zong gave him a complicated look, and replied with mixed feelings: "...it's nothing."

This sect really makes people don't know what to say from top to bottom.

***

Huamao Mountain is located in a neighboring province, and the drive takes nearly five hours. It was already dark when the three masters and apprentices arrived there.

The other Taoist priests invited by Qiu Guokai's company arrived one step faster than them, and Tuanjieyi had reacted at this moment, and sighed looking at the cars in the parking lot: "Oh, although Mr. Qiu's attitude is very sincere, but their company would rather spend Even if you have to invite so many colleagues over here, you may still feel that our Taicang sect is not famous enough to keep the scene. Sigh."

This is the case for a small sect that has just started, and its deterrence is not enough. Recently, he has been complacent about the company's excellent performance, but now he is also calmed down by the reality.

Wei Xi heard the words, but his expression was calm: "Don't worry, sooner or later, the Taicang sect will be famous and have countless disciples."

Tuanjieyi laughed and said that his master is really optimistic. How can it be so easy to achieve the goal so far away?

Wei Xi turned to his two disciples, his curly hair and coat were blown violently by the mountain wind, but his figure remained unshakable: "This is your master's last wish."

The two apprentices looked at him silently. The eldest apprentice had just finished laughing, and seeing his rare seriousness, he couldn't help but grinned. The second apprentice looked at him for a while, but calmly raised his hand and pressed it on his shoulder.

"There will be, you want these." The temperature of his palm seemed to be ironed to the skin through the fabric, Wei Xi heard him turn his eyes away, looking at the hills in the distance, and replied so lightly, "Go in, It's windy."

There is only such a hotel in the mountains, with no village in front and no shop in the back. It looks lonely and weird, but it is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the scenery is really good.

Before Wei Xi stepped into the lobby, he heard Lu Wenqing's voice: "Wei Xi! Are you here too?"

Although Lu Wenqing's strength is not very good, but his family background is amazing, and he also knows a lot of local Taoists, so he is naturally on the list invited by Qiu Guokai's company.

Kuang Zhiming also took the initiative to say hello, and at the same time introduced Weixi's origins to the Taoist priests he knew around him. Some of the people who came this time had already met Taicangzong through the amazing mediation team, and followed him to get acquainted, and some had never Hearing the name, they asked each other about Wei Xi's background.

After learning that this is a newly opened Taoist temple, I am not interested anymore. I have never heard of the name, so it must be that.

At this time, the person in charge of Qiu Guokai's company came forward with the list, and said apologetically to everyone: "Masters, there is only such a hotel in the mountain, and some of the crew's staff are still living there. There are really not enough rooms, so I can only wrong you." The two live in one room."

Many older Taoist priests present frowned, but there was nothing they could do if they were reluctant. Everyone took the car all the way up the mountain, and the desolation was indeed visible. To be honest, it was surprising to have such a decent-sized hotel.

Wei Xi was taken aback, and turned to look at the two disciples: "Two people live in one room?"

He brought two apprentices, how should they be divided?

The second disciple also seemed to be stunned when he heard the news, with a complicated expression on his face.

Lu Wenqing, the fanboy, immediately got excited: "Wei Xi, you can live with me, let your two apprentices share a room, I can sleep peacefully, I don't snore or grind my teeth!"

The chief disciple of the Taicang Sect stared: "No way!"

The second disciple of Taicang Zong frowned: "...no way!"

The two rejected it almost in unison, and Lu Wenqing was puzzled for a while: "Why not!"

Tuanjieyi glared at him, looking like a thief: "Why do you share a room with my master? I share a room with him, which is almost the same! What are you trying to do!"

Lu Wenqing: "You must be sick, I think you seem to have an attempt! You are all gay! What do you want to do to Wei Xi!"

Tuanjieyi: "Gya what gay, don't fart!"

Lu Wenqing: "What's the matter? You still called Mr. Shuo Zong your husband! Don't you admit it?"

Unity: "..."

Tuanjieyi became angry with embarrassment, and Lu Wenqing refused to give an inch. The two glared at each other, and the atmosphere was tense.

The second disciple of Taicang Zong was silent for a while, picked up the key handed over by the person in charge, picked up the suitcase on the ground with one hand, lowered his head and said calmly to Wei Xi: "Let's go."

The room was on the sixth floor, and the old elevator was very narrow. When getting out of the elevator, Wei Xi saw the second apprentice suddenly looked up at the ceiling, and asked the staff leading the way: "Is it all empty?"

The staff was stunned: "How do you know? The above is a large suite in our hotel, and there is indeed no one living there."

Shuo Zong: "Since the suite is empty, why did you tell us that there are not enough rooms? There should be quite a few rooms in the suite."

Wei Xi also became puzzled when he heard this, and then looked at the staff member, who knew that the staff member's face changed suddenly, as if he kept secret about it, refused to say anything, and as if he was afraid of being forced to question, put the two of them together When he got to the door of the room, he hurried away, not refusing to stay for a moment.

Shuo Zong quietly looked back at the back of her leaving in a hurry, until he heard Wei Xi's voice: "What are you waiting for, open the door quickly."

He came back to his senses, glanced at Wei Xi, then stared at the room ahead, 609.

Stretching his arms, the access control card made a sharp beep, and the door lock was unlocked, but Shuo Zong stood where he was.He hesitated a little, a room...

After a while, I thought again, it's not a big deal, it's just a room.

I heard Wei Xi's voice from the front who pushed open the door: "Huh? Why is there only one bed?"

Shuo Zong: "........."

He was stunned for a moment, then looked up.

In the slightly cramped dark room ahead, there was only one double bed.

There is also a fake rose placed on the bed, which creates a honeymoon-like warmth in the space under the dim light.

Wei Xi didn't wait for his second apprentice to react, and found out again. He turned to the small space with the bathtub on the side, and his tone was very surprised: "Huh? Why is this place transparent?"

On the right side of the door, the frosted shower space is so transparent that the sink inside can be clearly seen. Of course, the bathtub and shower room are also clearly visible. This is the first time he has seen such a decoration since he went down the mountain.

Wei Xi is very naive, it can be seen that there is no yellow waste in his mind: "It's pretty pretty."

Shuo Zong began to feel that the box in his hand was heavy: "..."
