Becoming a Demon [Comprehensive]
Chapter 22 Begonia Chunyan
On this day, an old Taoist came outside the Shen residence.Said that he wanted to meet the master in the mansion to thank him for his kindness.
Master Shen didn't believe in this at first, but ever since he got his precious daughter by praying to God and worshiping Buddha to do good deeds, he has a pious attitude towards people who are gods and gods.
However, this all means that the other party is really good. If the liars and the like have already called out, it's not like they haven't come to cheat in these years, and even the concierge has some knowledge.
However, this time Steward Wang personally reported to his master, telling him that the other party was really extraordinary, so Master Shen decided to invite him in to see him.
The Taoist priest had a long beard and white eyebrows, and was wearing a shabby but clean blue missionary uniform. Although he looked old, his face was ruddy and shiny, and he looked extraordinary.Master Shen knew at a glance why Butler Wang would help introduce him. This person really doesn't look like a liar just by looking at him.
As soon as the Taoist saw Master Shen, he said: "Passing through the precious land, I have exhausted all my money, and I am hungry, so I have a bowl of porridge."
Master Shen was shocked, well, he wasn't surprised, he just thought the Taoist priest was very interesting, his words were like doggerel, so he stepped forward and asked him where he came from.
The old Taoist said with a serious face: "Pindao came from Baiyun Temple and traveled around. This time I entered Yangzhou and got the kindness of the master's porridge, so I came to ask if there is any use for the poor."
The land of China is thousands of miles away, and there are many Taoist temples named after Baiyun Temple, but Baiyun Temple in Beijing is the most famous.Master Shen saw that the other party directly mentioned Baiyun Temple without mentioning the name of the place, so he preconceived that the other party was from the capital.
"So it's an expert." Master Shen said casually but respectfully.
But after finishing speaking, he changed his voice, "It's just that I have invited famous Feng Shui masters to look at it in my mansion. I think it's just a waste of time for an expert."
The old Taoist said inscrutably, "That's not necessarily true."
Master Shen's face remained unchanged, but he felt uneasy. Is there really something wrong in the family?
"Also ask the expert to give some advice."
The old Taoist stroked his beard and stood at the gate and said, "Although the feng shui in your house is excellent, not everyone can enjoy it. Mr. Shen built it in the house, so you think someone died innocently?"
Master Shen's complexion changed, and then he said coldly: "You Taoist priest is so unreasonable, don't talk nonsense, who has never died?" Master Shen was very angry. His garden is one of the best geomantic treasures in Yangzhou. What innocent people died tragically?
The old Taoist didn't care about Master Shen's attitude, but had a faint smile on his face, as if the truth was in his grasp. "I heard that there is a daughter in the master's family, aren't you afraid of harming your children?"
Master Shen was in a hurry, "What do you old Taoist say? How dare you curse my daughter?" Come on, when Master Shen heard the other party say this about his daughter, he expressed that he was very angry, and he stopped calling even an expert, and kept a cold face. Said to Steward Wang at the side: "Old Wang, see off the guests!"
Steward Wang also had a cold face, stretched out his hand and said to the old Taoist priest, "Please."
The old Taoist didn't take it seriously, and left a sentence, "Master Shen, don't shy away from medical treatment." He didn't force him to leave directly.
step
two steps
Three steps...
After walking to the third step, Master Shen's voice came from behind the old Taoist priest, "Wait a minute." The corner of the old Taoist priest's mouth curled up slightly, and when he turned around, he had an inscrutable expression on his face.
Master Shen squinted his eyes, tapped his fingers on the table and said, "The old Taoist priest had better tell you why, otherwise, don't blame me for sending you to the yamen without mercy."
The old Taoist didn't take it seriously, made a salute, and said directly: "The poor Taoist originally wanted to leave after repaying the favor of the porridge. Who would have thought that the master would be stained with Yin Qi as soon as he entered the door. Forget it, it should be someone in the mansion." It is appropriate, so I used the method of aggressive generals, and I hope the master will not blame you."
Master Shen was no longer angry at being beaten like this, he only said that he gave a reward at the porridge stall at the city gate, but the reward made him dumbfounded, this old Taoist's temper is really stiff, not like those who came to the door before High style.
After explaining the reason, Master Shen was not angry any more, instead he held some expectation, if this person is really talented, he could just help his daughter to check the marriage, as for whether it is a ghost or not, he really didn't care about it.
Firstly, he has not done anything to ruin his family in the past few years in self-cultivation, secondly, he is not afraid of anyone, is he afraid of a ghost?
Hearing the old Taoist priest say that there was something wrong with the family, his first reaction was that some bastard in the family had done something bad and let him, the master, take the blame.
"Have you asked about the Changzun name yet?" Master Shen and Steward Wang led the old Taoist priest into the garden and asked as they walked.
"The poor way is called good deeds."
Master Shen was startled, "Could it be that Shanxing Dharma Master Huashan won the Zen discussion with the Buddhist eminent monk?"
The old Taoist said indifferently: "It's just a false name, you two don't need to be too panic."
Master Shen was in awe, "I didn't expect to see Master Shanxing in Yangzhou. I heard that you went out for a trip after winning in Huashan last year. I never thought that you would come to Yangzhou. I wonder if the master intends to register in Yangzhou Taoist temple or not?"
The old Taoist still had a profound look on his face, "Pindao's law has not been completed, so I will continue to travel. This time, your mansion and the poor Taoist have a kindness. After this karma, the poor Taoist still needs to complete his unfinished journey."
Master Shen thought to himself that an expert is indeed an expert, if it were him, he would not be able to suffer so much.
A group of people walked around the garden for a long time, and Master Shen was too weak to walk, so he didn't even finish half of the garden.
In the end, a sedan chair was found to carry it, so that Master Shen could continue to accompany him.And the news that a Taoist priest came to the house was also spread. Zhang Maochun in the guest house didn't show his face, but his heart was full of complacency.
As for Shen Hanqing, it was like a lightning strike. Could it be that an expert really found something wrong with her?Shen Hanqing trembled, thinking whether to hide or hide?
Probably frightened, Shen Hanqing hid in the room, and even drove out the maid Qing He.
What if someone really found out about her abnormality?It won't be burned, will it?She is just repaying a favor, is it necessary to increase the difficulty?It's really a person sitting at home, and the disaster comes from the sky!
The old Taoist did some research, then stopped in front of a remote courtyard on the west side with a serious face, and said, "This is the place where the yin is the most gloomy. Master Shen also asked when this garden was closed."
Master Shen has a lot of things to do every day, so he turned to look at Steward Wang without knowing such a trivial matter.
Steward Wang took a step forward and said respectfully, "This is Aunt Bai's former residence."
Master Shen's expression changed drastically. Aunt Bai was his first woman, and he was only 13 years old at the time.His mother's former Mrs. Shen hated her for seducing her son, who broke his body and beat him to death. Before she died, Aunt Bai seemed to be imprisoned in a certain courtyard. He was detained by his wife at that time, and he couldn't save her at all.
He had long forgotten Aunt Bai's face in these years, and only vaguely remembered that she was a lively person. He thought he had forgotten her long ago, but he didn't expect that after someone reminded him, he realized that she had always been remembered in his heart .
Master Shen said in a daze: "23 years ago, the yard was closed on the third day of April."
The old Taoist closed his eyes and counted, Master Shen looked devastated, and Steward Wang stared at the old Taoist.
At this time, both of them believed in the old Taoist priest and felt that he had the power of intuition. Otherwise, after more than 20 years, many old people in the mansion would not have known about the intimate affairs of the family. They did not expect him to find out this yard directly.
The old Taoist frowned and made calculations for a long time without any results. Master Shen got rid of his depression and watched the old Taoist make calculations anxiously.
For a long time, no one spoke at the entrance of the yard, and the male servant who followed behind also felt that the place was a bit cold, and shivered unconsciously.
The old Taoist opened his eyes, and Master Shen stepped forward and asked anxiously, "How is it?"
The old Taoist glanced at Master Shen, then took out a talisman from the cloth pocket behind him and pasted it on the door, saying: "There are wandering spirits in this yard, I will do something to eliminate them at noon tomorrow."
Master Shen wanted to ask anxiously, but couldn't say it, so he hurriedly gave Steward Wang a wink.
Steward Wang took a step forward and asked, "I wonder if this yard is in the way of my house?"
The old Taoist straightened his cloth pockets and said: "The yard is a good yard, otherwise the wandering souls would not be trapped in this yard. It's just that this yard is located in the southwest, and it happens to hold down Master Shen's heir, so Master Shen always There is no heir. Fortunately, Master Shen has accumulated good deeds, and God blessed him to have a son. It's just that there is a yin in this courtyard, so this son should be a daughter."
Master Shen was overjoyed when he heard the words, rubbed his hands together and asked, "Then this yard is demolished, I wonder if I will have children?"
The old Taoist shook his head, "Master is destined to have only one heir, even if the yard is demolished, it will not help. What's more, the poor Taoist watched the golden light suddenly appearing in the sky above the master's mansion outside the mansion. I think the daughter-in-law has an extraordinary background. Generally, if fairies who have gone down to earth do not take care of it carefully, Still have to go back."
Master Shen immediately became nervous when he heard that, "Old Immortal, I only have this one daughter, and all the treasures can't let her go back to heaven, you have to help me think of a way."
The old Taoist shook his head, "Master, don't worry. Tomorrow, I will remove the wandering souls in this yard. Tomorrow, the master will bring the young lady with me, and the poor Taoist will help her do the calculations, and find a way to make her feel attached to the mortal world, so as not to Leave easily."
"Yes, yes, yes!" Master Shen nodded quickly. "Then invite the old god to stay in the mansion, and it will be easy to do it tomorrow." He forgot everything about Aunt Bai, and nothing was as important as his good daughter.
"Tomorrow, I need to prepare ten of the most energetic three-year-old chickens to get their cockscomb blood, a bowl of black dog blood, and a handful of new glutinous rice."
Upon hearing this, Master Shen hurriedly asked Butler Wang, "Have you written everything down?"
Butler Wang nodded, and Master Shen summoned a servant, "Send the old fairy to the guest courtyard, and serve him well at a high-class table."
The servant nodded and led the old Taoist away.
Master Shen glanced at the gate of the courtyard sealed by the talisman, and suddenly shuddered, "Go, go quickly." He got into the sedan chair and let the male servants carry him away.
When eating in the evening, Master Shen directly called his daughter over, whether the father and daughter had the same taste.
Master Shen looked at the good daughter, the more he looked at it, the happier he was. As expected of the good girl, she had an extraordinary background, and she had an air of ecstasy just by looking at it. Why didn't he notice it before?Immediately, Master Shen's face turned cold again, thinking that the good girl would leave him, he felt extremely uncomfortable.
Master Shen was happy and cold for a while, making Shen Hanqing restless. She kept guessing in her heart, could it be what the old Taoist priest who came today said?
What if the old Taoist decided that she was a demon?Glancing at Master Shen with an unpredictable expression, do you want to make the first move?She just wanted to repay her kindness. Is it necessary to be so difficult?
The atmosphere of this dinner was really depressing. After the meal was over and the maids removed the food, Master Shen cleared his throat and opened his mouth.
"Daughter, let's go meet the old god with Daddy tomorrow!"
Master Shen didn't believe in this at first, but ever since he got his precious daughter by praying to God and worshiping Buddha to do good deeds, he has a pious attitude towards people who are gods and gods.
However, this all means that the other party is really good. If the liars and the like have already called out, it's not like they haven't come to cheat in these years, and even the concierge has some knowledge.
