It's not easy being a master

His younger sister, not only did not inherit the roughness of his third uncle, but was gentle, delicate and tough, more like his father. I have to say that inheriting genes is really a magical thing.Thinking of his father, Shi Yi'an suddenly remembered the question he wanted to ask all the time, and asked in a low voice: "Why didn't my father practice any Taoism?"

"Ah, you ask this." Shi Yiming paused for a moment, with a complicated expression on his face.

"En." Shi Yi'an nodded, looking at Shi Yiming, eyes full of expectations.

Shi Yiming said: "Actually, we don't know much about this matter. When the second uncle left the teacher's house, we were not born yet. I have never seen the second uncle come back, but I just heard my father talk about him. "

At that time, Shi Yi'an also asked his father about the matter of his grandfather's house, but his father always had a look of embarrassment. At that time, Shi Yi'an thought that something bad happened to his family, so he didn't want to mention it, so he didn't dare to talk about it again. talkative.Now it seems that it is simply self-indulgent.

But these people either didn't want to talk about the matter of the father leaving the teacher's house, or they didn't know about it.Ghosts believe that there is no problem, no, in this house, ghosts don't believe it.

"But the eldest brother may know something more or less. You can ask him. I have to go to see grandpa, and we will see you later." Shi Yiming pushed the question and ran away in a hurry.

Seeing how my father mentioned the teacher's family, it doesn't look like there is any deep hatred at all.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

In the afternoon of the second day, Shi Yian sat in the Siwei residence to enjoy the cool air, waving a fan and drinking iced sour plum soup. It is ice-cold and cool when drinking, and the lips and teeth are fragrant after drinking.After Shi Yi'an drank three large bowls in one go, he spread out on the rocking chair and couldn't move.

The sound of the engine came from outside the courtyard. Shi Yi'an didn't know anything about the car and was not interested in it. He lifted the magazine on his face and continued to enjoy the cool air.

He heard footsteps coming from outside the door, and the sound of hard-soled leather shoes hitting the bluestone slab, with a clear rhythm.Shi Yi'an knew that this would definitely not be Yun Mo. Yun Mo never made a sound when he walked, and always appeared beside him silently. got used to it.

Shi Yi'an sat up, the book on his face fell into his hand naturally along the trend of gravity, and he really saw the person in front of him.

He has lived here for a few days, and I can't guarantee how much Taoism he has learned, but at least he has practiced the calmness of a mountain collapsed in front of his eyes without changing his face. A matching slim-fit half-sleeved shirt, a pair of denim half-leg pants, and a pair of lace-up leather shoes.

What the hell kind of dress is this? It's simply the hair salon designer's special style in the urban-rural fringe next door.This taste is almost as good as the red and green uncle who wears every day.

"You are?" Shi Yi'an stood up awkwardly.

"Second brother, I am Shi Yiqun."

Shi Yi'an turned on his dual-core CPU and tried hard to search for information about this Shi Yiqun in his hard disk, and finally found it in the recycle bin, Shi Yiqun, the son of the third uncle, and Yiming's brother.Frankly speaking, Shi Yi'an never thought that the third uncle's son would have such a feel.

"You live in this courtyard. It's so remote here, so you can get used to it." Shi Yiqun was not polite, poured himself a bowl of sour plum soup, sat on the wicker chair nearby, and drank it by himself.

Seeing that Shi Yiqun is the kind of careless and informal person, Shi Yi'an felt relieved, reclined on the rocking chair and fanned: "It's okay, anyway, I'm studying Taoism and reading books all day long. I don’t go out much.” Even if you want to go out, you have to go out.

"Listening to my uncle's lecture is simply a kind of torture. He is rigid and meticulous, which is too much of a headache. Moreover, he likes to go around in circles in his lectures, and he is determined not to talk about the key points until the critical moment, just like those university teachers now."

For Shi Yiqun's complaints, Shi Yi'an really felt the same, and nodded with a smile. This kind of common hatred for the same thing instantly brought the distance between the two closer.

"Are you working outside now or studying?" Shi Yi'an asked. This Shi Yiqun looked not much younger than him. He said it was work, but he felt that he lacked a sense of maturity, and he said it was study, but he didn't feel as stupid as ordinary students.

"Half and half, I go to work when I have a job, and go to class when I don't have a job. Fortunately, it's a university now, and those teachers won't complain because I miss a class or two." Shi Yiqun clicked his lips, as if I thought the sour plum soup was not bad, so I poured myself another bowl.

"What is your major."

"Architecture." Shi Yiqun paused and continued to explain: "In fact, Feng Shui has something in common with architecture, modern furniture, etc. Moreover, Feng Shui also involves geography, climatology, and psychology. There are many subjects in the same class, but of course there is also a part of metaphysics in it."

Shi Yiqun saw that Shi Yi'an was still cute and stupid, so he gave an example and said, "Have you noticed that there is no screen behind the gate of Shi's house?"

"No." No matter the entrance of the big house or the entrance of the small courtyard in the Shi family, there is indeed no screen wall. Shi Yi'an really didn't have much research on ancient buildings, and he didn't find this thing strange.

"Because the screen wall is used to block the way for ghosts to enter the door, those little ghosts with little cultivation can only walk in a straight line, so they can basically be blocked outside. Of course, this is from a metaphysical point of view. In fact, from an architectural point of view Speaking of this kind of ancient Chinese house, the main hall gate is directly opposite to the gate. As long as the door is opened, everything in the house will be seen by outsiders, so such a wall is needed to isolate the sight of outsiders from prying eyes. Because some little ghosts and demons often come to visit, so no screen wall is designed."

"Oh, I see those ghosts doing things in the yard can turn corners."

"Those who work in the courtyard of Shi's house are not ordinary little ghosts. Before they came, each of them was the soul of death in vain, but they were brought back by the ancestors before they became ghosts. This place is full of aura, and Shi's house The unique way of cultivating the mind can basically return to the way of reincarnation after a hundred years of cultivation."

Unclear, Shi Yi'an nodded cooperatively, expressing his understanding.

"Have you gone to the hospital to see Third Uncle? How is he now?" Shi Yi'an recalled that the brothers and sisters were busy with work and classes, and all came back because of Third Uncle's hospitalization. Presumably, they had already visited the hospital After passing the third uncle, I had to go to the hospital to see him, but my uncle stopped me.

"I had a minor operation, and I expect to be discharged from the hospital in more than ten days. I just didn't expect my dad to be tricked by a little corpse king. It's really careless." Although the members of the teacher's family have their own specialties, they can catch demons and eliminate demons. It belongs to the basic content, so everyone will know it more or less.

"It's fine."

Although Shi Yiqun and Shi Yiming are brothers and sisters, it can still be seen that the economic status of the two people is very different. Shi Yiming wears clothes of girls' brands. Although it cannot be said that life is difficult, it is by no means rich. .Although Shi Yiqun's taste is worrying, it can be seen that he wears all the famous brands.

"Looking at Feng Shui is very profitable." Shi Yi'an asked.

Shi Yiqun patted his hair and said proudly: "No, people who have no money don't care about this. Those who have money and power can't wait to move a table and invite a master to take a look. Some time ago, I Showed some real estate mogul's dad the graveyard, and he gave me the number as soon as he held out his hand."

Seeing the amount of money drawn out by Shi Yiqun, Shi Yiqun was slightly taken aback.

"It doesn't seem like you're making too much money by asking Mi Tongling." I always feel that Shi Yiming's shy personality makes it embarrassing to ask for two more.

"That's not what I said. In fact, most of the people in this business don't clearly mark the price, but they just look at the other party's wishes. So I don't know the specific number. In fact, after working for a long time, you will know that money is very important to our business. It is meaningless and unnecessary to say that, like some Taoist sects even require disciples not to save money, and all money should be used to do good deeds, and you understand karma.”

In fact, Shi Yi’an’s only understanding of metaphysics is that when he was in elementary school, the school organized a documentary about anti-feudal superstition. At that time, he felt that such feudal superstitions were not enough to cause public outrage.It wasn't until he came to the teacher's house that he had a new understanding of this profession, and he also understood why this kind of thing that has no scientific basis in the eyes of outsiders can be handed down in China's thousands of years of history.

Shi Yiqun was tired of talking, and Shi Yi'an was also tired of listening. The two looked up at the sun, and it was time for dinner.Shi Yiqun and Shi Yiming didn't stay at home for long, and they left with peace of mind when they saw that their third uncle was safe. There were only a few people and a large group of ghosts left in the huge Shi's courtyard.

The third uncle stayed in the hospital for more than ten days before he was discharged, but he was discharged from the hospital, but he still had to be raised at home.The uncle and the uncle each took part of the work of the third uncle, and the third uncle took the place of the two of them, teaching Shi Yi'an's Taoism every day.However, most of those pointers were just on paper, since the last time Shi Yi'an used the third uncle's talisman to fix the corpse king, it seems that it has never played a role.

For a period of time, the whole Siwei residence was almost submerged by talisman papers, and Shi Yi'an's Taoism didn't improve a bit.

Summer is coming to an end and winter is coming, and the end of the year is already here in a blink of an eye. Shi Yi'an has also started practical exercises from purely talking on paper.

"You can't rush this kind of thing. Look at the chemistry you have studied. How many years have you studied from junior high school to university? You are still not a top talent in chemistry. Now you just want to learn Taoism for a few months. It is simply impossible to become a teacher." In the bitter cold wind, the third uncle, who had just recovered from a serious illness, only put on a thin exercise suit.

Shi Yian hid in the down jacket, his nose was red from the cold, he took out a piece of talisman from his pocket with his stiff hands, gathered his spiritual power, and pasted the talisman on the scarecrow in front of him. There was a sudden sound, but before the scarecrow could be ignited, it went out with a pop.Let me go, this, this, this is not as powerful as a match.

Shi Yi'an took out another one, and poked it fiercely on the scarecrow's head. This time, the talisman paper was not at all, and it was stuck to the head crookedly by the snow water, and it was blown by the wind, flying around like It's the same as laughing at Shi Yi'an on the opposite side.

"Your mentality is wrong." Uncle San stood there motionless with his hands behind his back.

Frozen for a few hours in this kind of weather, who can have a good mentality.Shi Yi'an rolled his eyes silently, let out a long breath, calmed down his mood, and took the third talisman paper in his hand. The yellow talisman paper was lying in the palm, and the red cinnabar on it The drawn runes seemed to be so red that they were about to ooze out. Slowly, he felt that there was something more on this rune paper and the other two. It was clearly just a piece of paper, but there seemed to be an unusual warm current flowing , the feeling of being heavy in your hand is the same as that day.

"Post." Third Uncle shouted loudly.

Shi Yian was so frightened that he frantically pasted the talisman in his hand on the scarecrow, and the talisman and the scarecrow burned up under the strong wind, and soon turned into a pile of ashes.This is the first time that the talisman paper drawn by Shi Yi'an has had such a great effect.

"Today is not bad, let's end here." The third uncle summoned guards to clean up the ashes on the ground, and called Shi Yi'an to go back together.

In the evening, the university started to fall outside. Before Shi Yi'an could fall asleep, he heard the sound of snow sweeping outside.

"Yunmo." Shi Yian opened the door and felt the cold wind blowing snowflakes into the room desperately, making his teeth chatter from the cold.

Yun Mo was still dressed as a child, holding a broom taller than him with his hands in his sleeves, looking at Shi Yi'an at the door and asking, "Is there anything wrong?"

"Don't clean it at night, no one will give you extra money if you work so hard." Shi Yi said safely.

"I'll keep my voice down so I won't disturb your rest."

Shi Yi'an didn't expect Yun Mo to get it wrong, so he hurriedly explained: "I didn't mean it that way, you see it's still snowing outside now, if you sweep it, it will be in vain."

Although he knew that Fang Ling didn't need to sleep at all, but on such a cold snowy night, he slept under a quilt in a warm air-conditioned room, and let the other party sweep the snow outside, Shi Yi'an thought he couldn't do it. kind of thing.

"Thank you." Yun Mo bowed slightly, put down the broom, turned and went back to the room.

Shi Yi'an closed the door and sneezed several times, rubbed his itchy nose with his index finger, and went to rest.

Sleeping in the middle of the night, there was a sudden cry from outside the house. The cry was milky and milky, intermittent, which made the hair stand on end.Shi Yi'an lay sleeplessly under the quilt, listening to the movement outside with his ears open, where was the crying coming from Shi's yard in this winter.
