My years as a fortune teller

I knelt down and looked at Master Xuanhe, and gently wiped away the tears from my left eye with my sleeve.Uncle Xuanhe grabbed my sleeve and sniffed it, and said to me: "I have a smell all over my body, and you are still shaking in front of my nose."

I was stunned at the time, and I didn't know where to put my hand.I heard Uncle Xuanhe say: "Okay, I'm just kidding you. Don't think that Uncle Master doesn't know how to be happy when he's getting old. It's the way to train your heart in the world of mortals, and refine your temperament in the midst of laughing and scolding." fundamental."

I nodded and said to Uncle Xuanhe: "I understand what Uncle means, and Master has said it in the past. My Taoist teaching is to follow the way of heaven, so I laughed and scolded the Chinese side for showing human nature."

Uncle Master nodded and said to me: "Just understand, let's go and continue on our way. Before the sun goes down, we will go to the stockade in front of us to spend the night. Otherwise, we will sleep in the wilderness." I nodded , helped up Master Xuanhe and continued on his way.

I know that there are many missing parts in what Master Xuan He said just now.I know this is definitely what Uncle Xuanhe doesn't want to say, since he doesn't want to say it, there's no need to ask.

After walking for a few hours, I vaguely saw some roofs.I said to Uncle Xuanhe: "Uncle, is that the Miao village you mentioned? How I look at it, it is very similar to the tile-roofed houses in my hometown!"

Uncle Xuanhe smiled, and said to me: "Then what do you think is called a Miao village? The village is the same as the village in the Central Plains. It's just that the name is different, and now more bricks and tiles are used. Build a house."

I nodded and said to Uncle Xuanhe: "Uncle, you haven't been here for many years, yet you can still remember the environment here. You even know exactly where there is a place to stay."

Uncle Xuanhe looked at me sideways and said, "There is something in your words, do you think I have made some preparations in advance? Tell you that the people here have lived close to mountains and rivers for generations, and it is impossible to move out of here without natural disasters. Yes. Even the villages in the Central Plains look like this.”

I smiled hastily, and said to Xuanhe: "Uncle Master just said that he wants to follow the way of heaven, and now he is starting to be cautious. I just asked out of words, do you think you are so nervous? Let's talk about this time with you When you come out, you are just learning your skills. If you say go there, I will obediently follow you!"

Uncle Xuan He covered his eyebrows with his hand and looked at it, and said to me suspiciously: "What time is it? Why is the whole house so quiet? Could it be that the people in the village have all gone to work in the fields?"

Upon hearing Master Xuanhe's words, I hurriedly took out my phone and looked at it.Said to him: "It's not yet four o'clock. This meeting is going to work in the field, and there are old people in it. It's almost time to cook, it's impossible that no one will do it!"

After Master Xuanhe put down his hand, he frowned and said to me: "I think this stockade is a bit weird, so be careful when you pass by. Don't eat anything in it. If there is any problem, we will leave immediately." I ordered Lower your head, and follow Uncle Xuanhe and walk slowly towards the stockade.

But I didn't expect that after entering the village, there was no one there.I pulled Master Xuanhe and said: "Generally, when you enter a Miao village, don't you say that there are Miao girls serving wine and dancing to greet you? Today, not to mention the greeters, there is not even a dog?"

Uncle Xuanhe shook his head and said to me: "It's all made by the tourist. Whose girl is fine every day, standing here waiting for someone to toast. This is all made by the tourist. But don’t tell me, it’s quiet and scary inside. I can understand without people, but how can there be no dogs? There must be something wrong here, let’s talk about it after walking inside.”

It's so quiet here, it's a little scary.There is really not even a dog or a chicken.Did everyone in the village move home?Impossible!Although the doors here are all closed, there are still dried fish and meat hanging on the walls of some houses.

Uncle Xuanhe and I stood at the gate of the village, staring at the silence inside in a daze.Uncle Xuan He pointed to a door, and said to me: "Go in and see what's inside. After entering, remember to only look, not to touch. If there is danger, get out immediately."

I nodded and put down the bag in my hand.Touching the silver slave on his waist, he took a deep breath and jumped to the front of a house.After walking up the steps, I tapped the door lightly a few times.

"Is anyone there? Excuse me, is there anyone here?" I patted on the door and asked softly, "We are passing by here, I don't know if it is convenient for the host to stay overnight."

But no matter whether it was me knocking on the door or the question mark, no one answered.So I opened the door and looked inside.There was no one in the room, and there were bowls and chopsticks and a few fried dishes on the table.

I went over to test the temperature of the night the dish was served and it was getting cold.Then I lowered my waist and asked gently.The dishes were a bit rancid, it seemed that the owner of the house had been missing for a long time.

I went around the square table and walked slowly inside.The bedroom was kept spotless, and the bedding was neatly folded and put together.On the table next to the bed, there was still a glass of water and a few pills.

I frowned, and went to the kitchen again.It is still so quiet here, the fire has long been extinguished.The dishes in the pot were copied, and the half-cooked rice was lying in another pot.

Seeing this, I shook my head and retreated along the same path.He ran to Uncle Xuanhe, shook his head and said, "The rice is only half cooked, and there is still a dish in the pot. On the table in the bedroom, there are still white water and medicine for treatment. There is no trace left, as if It’s as if it’s evaporated. By the way, I smelled the vegetables, and it must have been a few days old.”

Uncle Xuanhe nodded, took my hand and felt my pulse, and said: "There is no sign of poisoning in the body, it seems that there is no poison in the vegetables you have smelled, and there is no Gu! But where have everyone gone?"

When I heard Master Xuan He say this, I jumped up happily and said: "Uncle Master, the poison in my body has been discharged? So my body has recovered, and I can go back to the same way as before, right?"

Uncle Xuanhe glared at me and said: "You haven't been poisoned in the first place, I'm just talking about it casually. It's for you to get more things so that you can exercise!" After speaking, he continued to walk forward.

I froze for a moment, I didn't expect Master Xuanhe to be able to fool people like this.Just as I was about to say something, I saw that Uncle Xuan He had gone a long way.He hurriedly picked up his luggage and chased after him!

Uncle Xuanhe looked back, and I came running out of breath and said: "Look, the whole village is empty, not to mention a cat, dog, chicken and duck, and there are not even some livestock." I nodded.

"Let's go, let's get out of here!" Uncle Xuan He suddenly turned his head and said: "When we figure out the reason, come here to rest. I always feel that the atmosphere here is not right!"

I nodded, without saying a word, I just silently followed behind Master Xuan He.But when we just walked to the entrance of the village, suddenly there was a loud thunder in the air.Then on the mountain next to the entrance of the village, rocks rolled down from time to time.

Uncle Xuanhe pulled me back a few steps, and said to me: "It seems that the heavens don't want us to leave here, so let's stay here, little fat man. See what's here, it's making trouble, okay?" With a sound.

Uncle Xuanhe looked back at me and said, "What's wrong with you kid? You haven't spoken since just now. Are you angry at me for asking you to memorize so many things. So this time you're getting angry with me and don't talk to me. ah!"

I shook my head and said to Uncle Xuanhe: "Uncle, I feel that there are two eyes staring at us all the time, and when we were in the village just now, the blood jade had a strong reaction. The smaller the reaction."

Uncle Xuanhe nodded, and whispered to me: "I also feel a pair of eyes staring at us. And I feel that those eyes seem to be able to see through me. So I said to leave here first, but no Come to think of it, God wants us to stay."

While talking about the rain falling from the sky, Uncle Xuan He glanced at me and said with a smile: "Let's go, later you can see where the blood jade has the strongest induction. Let's find a house to live in somewhere. I want to see what kind of evil is here."

I nodded, and came to the village with Uncle Xuanhe.But I didn't expect that at this time, the blood jade had no reaction at all.It seems that there is no evil here at all, lying quietly in my trouser pocket.

I told Uncle Xuanhe about this situation, and Uncle Xuanhe was silent for a long time.Then I looked up at the light rain in the sky, and said to me: "No matter how much, let's go to this room." He pointed to a house opposite him.

I nodded and followed Uncle Xuan He into that room.The scene in the room is exactly the same as what I saw just now.It's just that this family was cleaning up the dishes, and it seemed that the accident happened after eating.

Uncle Xuanhe looked around the house and said to me: "This house is old, look at the beam above your head." He pointed to my head.

I looked up and saw a few talismans stuck on the beam.I was about to ask Uncle Xuanhe, and I heard him say: "It seems that this is a Han family, or is it a Miao family. The talismans on it are all famous talismans in Chenzhou. Some are for inviting gods, and some are for expelling evil spirits."

I nodded my head and said to Uncle Xuanhe: "Uncle, why is there a person like a little ghost on the talisman here? This is somewhat similar to the Lushan Sect. Do you think there is some relationship between the two?"

Uncle Xuanhe looked at it and said to me: "It is very normal that a major feature of Chenzhou Talismans is that there are various characters on them. Some of them are like ghosts, or like emperors. This is similar to the witches that originated from the folk It has a lot to do with the arts, and the Lushan Sect also absorbed these contents. So at first glance, the two are very similar, but when you look closely, you will find that they are different."

I nodded and put my luggage on the ground.Following Uncle Xuan He came to the bedroom together, the same scene as the first room I visited appeared again, and there were still pills and white water on the convenient table beside the bed.

Uncle Xuanhe tried to turn on the light, and there was no remote cottage that was still powered on.Uncle Xuanhe looked at me and said, "I'll stay here tonight, and you'll clean up the place later. Borrow the pot and stove from my fellow villager and cook some meals."

I looked at Master Xuanhe and said, "Is the food here edible? Besides, where do you want me to get water? I'm not very familiar with this place, so you're here to help me."

Uncle Xuanhe nodded and said, "I'm definitely going to help you with this, otherwise you may not be able to cook cooked rice. Let's go to the back kitchen to see if there is anything we can use."

As he said that, he took me to the back kitchen and lifted the lid of the water tank to have a look.The water inside was actually full, and there were some potatoes and other vegetables beside it.Uncle Xuan He scooped out some water, put it on his nose and smelled it, took out a silver needle and tried it, and then poured the water in.

Then I looked at a few potatoes and said to me: "The vegetables and water are fine, we will use these for cooking. Go and see how much rice is left in the rice tank, scoop out some to wash and prepare for cooking."

I nodded, just opened the rice tank and was about to scoop rice.I found that although there was only half a tank of rice, there seemed to be a round spherical object in the middle.So I touched it with a bowl, and it felt heavy and active.So I slowly planed off the rice with my hands, and something that horrified me appeared...
