Chapter 34 Luo Blind
"What's the situation?" Lao Xu looked at me in confusion.
I smiled. Life is indeed very interesting. Often, things you think are very important but the most irrelevant. Things you think are indifferent are the key to life. I told Lao Xu about the fortune teller I met on the way to buy a mask.
"At that time, I just thought that fortune teller was a liar, but I didn't expect that he would really make a fuss. At least he said I would encounter trouble recently. Lao Xu, do you think this matter is trouble?" I asked Lao Xu with a smile.
"Yeah, this is really a troublesome thing." Old Xu obviously felt that he had grabbed a life-saving straw.
"Die horses should be treated as living horses. Without further ado, let's go to find the old fortune teller." I stood up, pulled Lao Xu up, and then prepared to go out.
Lao Xu and I ran away, but when we arrived at the fortune telling stall, there was no old man. I remember very clearly that on the way to the market to buy masks, we would never get the wrong location. But we didn’t see any fortune tellers around us.
Where did this fucking old fortune teller go?
I hurriedly asked a small vendor selling clothes next to me if he saw this fortune teller. The vendor replied, "You said, "Lucky Luo, he just closed the stall. While closing the stall, he muttered, 'A friend comes from afar, so he needs to drink.' At that time, I laughed at him for being infatuated. He said that someone would come to him to drink before the sun sets. Are you his friends? This Lin Xiao is really a couple of times."
I saw that the hawker knew the old fortune teller named Luo Xiaozi, and hurriedly asked where Luo Xiaozi lived and where to find him. The hawker said that when Luo Xiaozi left, he told him that if someone came to search, "From now on, he will encounter gold annealing."
This is a mystery. Lao Xu and I silently recited these two sentences in our hearts, thinking about the meaning of it.
Judging from the meaning of these two sentences, we must be going north, but what does this "annealing gold" mean?
While frowning, Lao Xu was thinking, while whispering these two sentences in his mouth, he suddenly said, "I understand!"
"Lao Xia, this person named Luo Xiazi is ultimately a fortune teller. Fortune teller must be proficient in the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams. Among the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams, the east belongs to Zhen, the five elements belong to wood; the south belongs to Li, the five elements belong to fire; the west belongs to Dui, the five elements belong to metal; the north belongs to Kan, and the five elements belong to water. This gentleman is asking us to go north from here, turn to the west-facing street, and turn south." After all, Lao Xu is the leader in the archaeological world, and his knowledge is really profound.
No matter whether it is right or not, I have to try it first. Lao Xu and I immediately walked along the north street, walking about three or four hundred meters away, and there was indeed a small road in the east and west direction. Turn left and entered the west road, and walked not far away, and saw a small alley facing south. When we walked in, we found that the alley was not long and there were no doors on both sides. At one glance, we saw a courtyard door with the door open. It turned out that there was a house in this alley. Lao Xu and I
When I walked up to it, it was a bungalow with a low gate, the door was dilapidated, and a iron door was covered with mottled rust. Lao Xu and I stepped into the courtyard gate, and there was a screen wall facing us. There was an open large folding fan hanging on the screen wall, and a few words were written with red paint on the fan. I couldn't understand it after reading it for a long time. Lao Xu stared at it for a while and said that this was a mad cursive script, which said it was "One yin and one yang are called Tao, and I am happy to know my destiny, so I don't worry."
It seems that this is the home of Na Luo's blind man, and Lao Xu is really a little frustrated. I thought behind the screen wall there was a house, but when I turned around, I saw that behind the screen wall was a small yard, and the floor was cleaned. Three bungalows faced north and south, and were set on one side with the gate of the courtyard. Lao Xu and I looked at each other, and then walked towards the door together. Before we could even walk in front of us, a sound came from inside: "Come? Come in, come in quickly. Come in quickly. Look, what delicious food is the old man?"
Lao Xu and I entered the room. There was a table opposite the door, and there was a few dishes on the table. There was a person in the room lying in front of the pot and busy. It was indeed Na Luo's blind man.
While cooking, Luo Xiaozi smiled and said, "I knew you would come, the dishes are ready. Come on, come on, serve them quickly. Drink and chat." He really didn't treat us as outsiders.
Although I didn't know this blind man Luo before, since I was so enthusiastic, at least I would sit down first, let alone we have something to ask for.
Na Luo brought the dishes in the pot, then asked Lao Xu and I to sit down, pouring wine, and said, "No need to say more about these two brothers. I have been walking in the world for more than 30 years, following my master to learn Yin and Yang, play the Five Elements, and slander the word "severe" and it's not a big deal. I have already known the purpose of your visit today. Let's drink first, and let me talk about it in detail after drinking this glass of wine."
It is better to obey your destiny than respect. It seems that this blind Luo is indeed a bit of a Taoist practice, which is not comparable to those ordinary warlocks of the world. Drinking this glass of wine, the blind Luo slowly introduced himself to us.
It turned out that Luo Xiaozi is from Shandong. His parents died early since childhood. He became an orphan at the age of five or six and grew up eating a hundred families. Later, when he was ten years old, he met a Taoist priest in Youfang. Seeing that Luo Xiaozi had some talent and poor background, he was compassionate, he accepted him as his disciple and raised him while raising him. Luo Xiaozi is a miserable person. He relied on the support of his neighbors since childhood to survive. As the saying goes, children of poor people are early. Luo Xiaozi also knew a lot of things early, plus
He was smart and clever, but he really regarded Taoist You Fang as his master and father, respectful and filial. Taoist You Fang taught his Taoist Five Elements and Eight Trigrams and other Feng Shui Geography skills to Luo Xiaozi. When the Taoist was in his old age, he forced Luo Xiaozi to make up for a lesson on the hexagram without regard for the punishment of heaven. Who knew that the hexagram was divined that this blind man Luo would die in middle age in a bad life. Taoist You Fang couldn't bear to suffer this sudden disaster, so he used the taboo method in Yin and Yang studies to exchange his life and turn his luck.
If we say that the method of changing one's life and fortune has long been lost now. The reason is that the destiny of heaven is difficult to violate. It has been a taboo to spy on the secrets of heaven, and it has to change one's life and fortune. In the eyes of Taoism, this is simply a matter of destiny. In this way, it will definitely be punished by heaven. But the Taoist priest You Fang loved Ai Luo blind man so much, let alone being old, and fighting for this old life and fortune in the next life will save Luo blind man's life.
I took a sip of wine and asked Luo Xiaozi: "What's next?"
Na Luo's blind man turned red and he raised his head to kill the wine in his glass, saying, "Old man, I am fifty and three years old this year, right?" After saying that, tears fell down.
Lao Xu and I didn't talk, and looked at him silently. This blind man Luo was also a person with temperament. Judging from these words, his filial piety is not as good as that of the past and is worthy of his merits.
The blind man Luo raised his head and drank the wine in the glass, wiped his mouth, and said, "Master, he left shortly after changing his fate for me. I was only twenty-eight years old that year. I relied on the fortune-telling skills he passed down from my master and this house to make a living here. In the year when Hong Kong returned, a strange thing happened in a nearby village."
"What's strange?" I asked hurriedly.
"There is a miserable man named Lao Li in a nearby village who lives by working hard. He only gets married when he is forty. This wife is quite successful. The next year he gave birth to a fat boy. Lao Li is so happy that he can get married and have a child in middle age. When the child was five years old, he ran out to play with a group of children. After he came back, he started to talk nonsense and talk nonsense for three days. The child's parents took him to the hospital and only rely on infusions to maintain it. Later, Lao Li heard about my master's skills, so he came over to ask for help. But that year my master had already gone to the immortal. Although I was not as good as my master, I could not insult my master's reputation, so I dealt with the guys and followed Lao Li."
"What then?" Old Xu obviously became interested.
"Then? Then something happened." Blind Luo pointed to his left eye and continued, "I thought it was just a soul-lossing child. It was easy to lose his soul when he went out to play. As a result, I opened my eyes and saw that, oh! A black shadow was lying on the back of the child. How could you understand this? This is a resentment, and it is very difficult to solve! I quickly put down the incense case, forget about the time, and prepared to take over the evil deed. I didn't think that the evil deed was very resentful, but this child's resentment in his previous life, and even my master dared not pat his chest."
Blind Luo took another sip of wine on his own and sighed: "This is also my fixed number. The secret of heaven is circulating, and the number of earth is fixed. I saw that Lao Li and the people in his house were begging me hard, and my heart softened, and I forgot what my master told me before his death - don't care about the affairs in the water. That evil is just the thing in the water. When playing by the children, I attached it. When I was doing it, I used a taboo method. However, except for the evil, I violated the secret of heaven, which attracted disasters and ruined my eyes. But seeing that Lao Li and his family were safe, it was worth it."
Luo's left eye was completely blind. I don't know whether it was his master's fate and fortune change or the favor of God, but his right eye was left, but his eyelids were always narrowed into slits. At first glance, it seemed that his eyes were blind. In addition, the strong evidence of Lao Li's family, Luo's name spread like wildfire, and it was equivalent to a god nearby.
"Master Luo, do you know the purpose of our trip?" I asked him tentatively.
"Haha, little brother, don't call me Taoist priest, you call me blind Luo or Lao Luo. Are you here for an ancient tomb?"
"Lao Luo is really smart! We came for an ancient tomb. We were from the archaeological team and were ordered to conduct scientific research on a nearby ancient tomb. It was smooth sailing, but yesterday suddenly." Before Lao Xu finished speaking, he was interrupted by the blind man Luo waved his hand.
