My years as a fortune teller

Unexpectedly, Master Gou could tell at a glance that the skeleton belonged to a dragon. This thing had only appeared in legends for thousands of years, but this old man could tell it at a glance from the photos.But this is not what I am most concerned about. My purpose is to invite him out of the mountain.

But the old man told me very tactfully that he is getting old now.Although I know this is a refusal, I still want to try again. Without his help, I really don't have any confidence in this trip.

So I said to Lord Gou, the "Fire Eye Dragon King", "Forget it, you old man is self-effacing. I don't know your ability yet, are you just trying to make me want to go? But Lord Gou, you old man thinks I thought, if I hadn’t encountered difficulties, could I come here to ask you to come out of the mountain?”

The old man looked at me and said to me angrily: "I'll tell you the truth, since I came back last time, my health is not as good as before, so I really can't promise you this time. If I am in good health, I will There's no need to soak in mud either."

Seeing how sincere the old man said, I didn't know what to say for a while.He Simin knelt down suddenly, and said to the old man: "Old man, although I don't know how powerful you are. But since Brother Hu Hu must find you, I believe you must have extraordinary abilities. I hope you can see that you are so powerful when I am with you. For the sake of the child in your belly, come out and help us!"

When the old man heard this, he jumped back and said to me: "Little fat man, help this girl up quickly, I can't afford such a big courtesy. I told you I'm not in good health, so don't make things difficult for me." !"

I hurriedly helped He Simin up, then smiled and said to the old man: "Since this is the case, let's not embarrass Lord Gou." Then I took out two small porcelain bottles from my bag and said to him: "Master Gou, this These are two bottles of elixirs that I got by accident, refined by senior masters, and they have a history of a hundred years. There are six pills in each of them. If you are old and feel uncomfortable, you can take out one pill. The teacher asked me to give it to you, so you can rest assured to eat it."

After speaking, stuffed it into his hand, and led everyone to prepare to leave.The old man suddenly said to me: "Xiao Pang, I should know the place you mentioned. I hope you guys don't go there. The danger there is beyond words."

I stopped and thought for a while, then turned around and said to him: "Master Gou, we know that doing some things is dangerous, but we still have to do it, because there is not only friendship, but also a responsibility." Looking at He Simin, he said: "This girl, her father and husband are in the archaeological team. She is pregnant with Liujia now, but in order to save her father and husband, she came here regardless of her own safety. Master Gou can do this, you What else can I say? Hey, let’s not talk about Lord Gou. We will stay at the foot of the mountain for one night, and we will be on our way tomorrow morning. If I can come back alive this time, I will definitely come and stay with you for a few days.”

After speaking, he gave him a big gift, and led everyone down the mountain.I don't know how the old man behind me feels, but I can understand his difficulties. When we broke up last time, my teacher and I knew that he was not in good health.So this time, if he can help, I will be very happy, even if he can't help, I won't blame him.

We didn't say a word all the way.Back in the hotel room, Gao Shengwen and I shared a room, and Su Huier and He Simin shared a room.Using the time of dinner, we sat together to discuss the next step.

As soon as Su Hui'er sat down, she said to me: "Don't be so sad, fat man. An old man who is almost scum, how capable can he be? Don't worry about it. Even if you can't beat me, there is still me!"

I gave her a disgusted look and said, "Aren't you afraid to stick your tongue when you say something so big? How long can you stay in the water? At this age, Master Gou can stay for a day. I still have reservations! You have seen snakes and boa constrictors, but have you ever seen water lizards? The first step for a snake to become a dragon? Do you know how many unspeakable ghosts live in a Yellow River? Let me tell you that Lord Gou knows it all, and he has seen it himself. I've caught, caught, and killed. Let me put another bad word, even the mandrill next to Lord Gou, you are no match for it."

Su Hui'er stopped talking because of what I said, her face was flushed and she lowered her head to play with the corner of her clothes.I patted her on the shoulder and said to her: "Little girl, since you have come out to practice, put away your eldest lady's temper. There are mountains beyond mountains, and your grandparents may be among the best in some aspects. But China has a vast land and abundant resources, and Taoism has been developed for thousands of years. There are too many high-ranking people in the world, and it is impossible to count the rookies. We who learn Taoism must have a compatible heart, otherwise, we are not as good as a man who sits in a well and watches the sky frog."

Su Huier nodded, she just lowered her head without speaking.I looked at He Simin and Gao Shengwen and said: "Master Gou must have his own unspeakable secrets, otherwise he would not reject me. Even if he rejected me, he would agree to it for the sake of the teacher and master. Since he can't come , Let’s go as planned.” The two nodded.

After dinner we chatted for a while, and I called Master.I didn't expect the call to get through this time.I immediately told the story of asking "Fire Eye Dragon King" to come out of the mountain, but was rejected.

Master on the other end of the phone, after discussing with the teacher, said to me: "Son, are you worried about the danger over there? If you have no idea, just wait there for two or three days, and we will deal with the matter in hand." Tell me and hurry over."

I thought about it, and said to the master: "Master, what are you talking about, old man! Do you think the disciples will be afraid of such a little danger? I just want to report to you. We will set off on time tomorrow morning. Master Gou is not in good health. Well, I can understand, it is definitely the best to have him around, but I will save people without him. And this time I will mainly save people, and I will explore the way by the way. It's time, let's come and have a look."

Master smiled on the phone, talked to me a few more words, and hung up the phone.I took the phone and walked around the house a few times, and said to Gao Shengwen: "When Brother Gao arrives at the destination, you stay and help me look after these two girls. I will bring some dry food to find Professor He and the others. If it takes three days I haven't come back within a few days, so you take these two women back first. When my master and the others have time, you can bring them here. I will leave a mark of the master's door on the road, and they will come back when the time comes have witnessed."

When Gao Shengwen heard this, he jumped up from the bed and said to me: "Huzi, what do you mean? Do you think I am a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death? Let me tell you, I disagree with this. I must follow you wherever you go , I am not someone who leaves my brother and flees for his own life."

I smiled bitterly and said to him: "Brother Gao, I have no other intentions. If you think about it, if it is really dangerous inside, I will take the three of you in, how much can you help me? Besides, He Simin is pregnant now. If something happens to her husband, do you think you want to save him some flesh and blood? So I will find an excuse to leave at that time, just play it by ear. Besides, you have never seen such a big storm, do you think I can fall here? In a small ditch?"

Gao Shengwen laughed dryly, and said to me: "Huzi, I reserve my opinion, and I will try my best to help you when the time comes. He Simin is easy to talk about, but the clever and eccentric little girl you brought is probably not so easy to deceive. "

In fact, this is what I'm most worried about, but forget it, let's take a step at a time!Thinking of this, I went to take a shower, and then came back and lay on the bed tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.I know that the road ahead is very difficult, but since we are here, we must go on.

It was finally dawn, we packed up and had breakfast before getting in the car and getting ready to go.Just as Gao Shengwen was about to drive, he suddenly pulled me and said, "Hu Zi, look over there!" I heard his voice and followed his voice, only to see "Fire Eye Dragon King" Gou Ye standing not far away. The place watches us.oops!Why did he come here, even if he came to see us off, he didn't have to come here early in the morning! ...
