Chapter 7 Weird Taoist Priest, Taiping Talisman Water
"I told you a long time ago that Wuzi is not good, his footwork...tsk, tsk, tsk."
“I can’t jog back and forth in time, and I often get lost.”
The few big men who gathered around didn't have any scruples, and they joked in front of others.
However, there are two big men among them who are obviously disabled, but they have a unique spirit of bloody courage, which is also impressive.
"I'm afraid I'll meet you halfway..."
There are also people who recognize Zhou Qingdu. In these years in Zhongnan Mountain, he is not just a prisoner. Naturally, he has traveled up and down, and he has some connections with the villages at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain.
To solve some troubles such as evil spirits and evil spirits, some people came to Zhou Qingdu when they got sick and couldn't afford medicine. Basically, they could get some relief and treatment. It's not that young Taoist priests couldn't save them.
The key is that for these ordinary farmers, only alleviation of some diseases is the most suitable solution.
If it can be cured, he will try his best to find a way, but isn't it difficult that one has no solution? Because of Zhou Qingdu's actions, the villages at the foot of the mountain will not look down upon him because of his young age.
On the contrary, people come up every year to offer incense.
I can’t say it’s the best thing to offer, but it’s the best part they can squeeze out.
Zhou Qing was well aware of this.
"The Taoist priest is here, so hurry up and go to the west of the village. I met another Taoist priest on the road, who said he can also get rid of evil spirits, but..."
The man who recognized Zhou Qingdu didn't seem to know what to say, but he still gave it an adjective.
"That Taoist Priest always has an evil smell about him. Although I am missing half a leg, I came from the battlefield in the west. I always feel that he is not a decent person."
Even though the men in these mountain villages don't seem to have a lot of meat, they are actually very lean, and many of them are physically disabled. They have been to the battlefield and returned after a trip to hell.
Especially since the imperial court has begun to implement restructuring, these families who have built up military and military affairs have been abandoned...
"A wandering Taoist priest?"
Zhou Qing showed a look of surprise, nodded to the big men at the entrance of the village, and then led the leading farmer towards the west of the village.
As for the two Li and Du who were behind Zhou Qingdu, perhaps because they were following him or because the scribes' uniforms they were wearing had an effect, the few big men at the door just looked at them and remembered their faces.
More obstacles.
On the other hand, Li Taibai, who traveled more and more across the country, had a bit of weirdness in his expression.
You must know that this is at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain, and not far above is Louguan Taoist Road. There are not many Taoist priests visiting, but they basically do not come to such a place to find believers and pilgrims to get rid of ghosts.
p>
It is already rare to have such a strange flower in Zhou Qingdu. Having seen this young Taoist priest, he knew that he was not like ordinary people and was almost given by heaven. Li Taibai could also understand the tolerance of the Louguan Taoist party for such a Taoist temple with only one person.<
/p>
But when wandering Taoist priests come to the villages below to interfere with their daily work, this means that it is not that simple.
Although Li Taibai seems to be not delicate enough, it depends on who he is competing with. In fact, he can feel that there is something wrong, but he just can't think it through and explain it clearly.
On the other hand, that young man Du Zimei, despite his good literary talent, was still very ignorant about these common things. His eyes were shining with clear light. He didn't know why the big man guarding the entrance of the village wanted to mention a wandering Taoist priest in particular.
It’s even less clear why Zhou Qingdu seemed to pay special attention to this.
...
The steps of these people are now extraordinary. Even the farmer called Wu Zi has the secret blessing of Zhou Qingdu, and his foot power is also very fast.
It usually takes a long time to walk to the west end of the village, but now we have reached it in an instant. Just as he was about to look for the courtyard called Wang Er's house, the leading young Taoist priest looked around and frowned.
I found a yard that didn’t seem to be cleaned very often.
The fifth son who followed did not point out the error. Obviously this was the family of the farmer named Wang Er.
Before I even pushed the courtyard door open, I could already hear the crisp sound of bells echoing continuously.
"Dingling bell" "Dingling bell"
A wandering Taoist priest wearing a robe painted with several kinds of rare birds and animals, with several runes painted on his face, was constantly wandering around the courtyard, his steps sometimes heavy and sometimes light, and he was lying around in the courtyard.
, the man who was so thin that you could see his bones kept walking around, performing some kind of sacrificial ceremony.
I saw him shaking his head, with a bell dangling in his hand. Together with the Taoist scriptures he was silently chanting, it gave people a weird and solemn and sacred feeling.
"If the elixir is bright and shining, it is the writing written in the sky, which can save the evil spirits. If it is healed ten to ten times, the writing in the sky corresponds to the true divine official, and the story is effective!"
"With this effect, the rest are all wrong words and cannot be used. Therefore, the words that support evil words should correspond to gods. Those who are not healed are misleading people and cannot save lives."
As his words fell, it seemed that some force in the dark was stirred, and soon a wave of Yanghe energy came. At this time, he took out a yellow talisman paper from the bag, and quickly used cinnabar to draw it.
Written as a spell,
When the yellow talisman was completed, he saw a force of vitality spreading out as the Taoist waved his hand, igniting the yellow talisman and turning it into dust. He then took a bowl of water and combined the powder with it, which is what the world calls 'talisman water'.
It was also the method used by Zhang Jiao, the heavenly master who set off a huge disaster at the end of the Han Dynasty.
Seeing the methods of the wandering Taoist priest, not only Zhou Qing recognized it, but Li Taibai was familiar with history books, military books, Zongheng and the Taoism of Legalism, Confucianism and Mohism, so he could naturally see the details of the Taoist priest at a glance.
Realizing that his virtuous brother was still confused and confused, he pulled Du Zimei aside, did not enter the yard, and explained to him in a low voice.
"This is the method of Taiping Dao, which is to make talisman water to save lives and drive away evil spirits."
"However, the book "Taiping Qingling Jing" has gone through various turmoils and has long been extremely low-key and hidden in the Taoist lineage, and has not been circulated outside."
"There are only a few people who practice it, and it can be regarded as the inheritance of this lineage. Now I actually see a suspected true inheritance in such a wandering Taoist priest. It is either an inheritance scattered among the people, or something that someone deliberately spread..."
When Du Zimei heard what her eldest brother Taibai said, she suddenly woke up a lot.
We must know that Taiping Dao is deeply connected with rebellion nowadays. How could such a lineage, which is a secret inheritance in Taoist sects, appear so coincidently near Zhongnan Mountain and in this village?
Even though he didn't like these intrigues and rarely had any contact with them, after staying in a wealthy family for a long time, he could still clearly smell the atmosphere of conspiracy.
As the wandering Taoist priest poured the talisman water into Wang Er's body, the purple lines visible to the naked eye had dissipated, and Wang Er, who was originally in a coma, began to move under his eyelids, showing signs of waking up.
Before the Taoist priest could show his proud expression, Zhou Qingdu had already stepped forward to Wang Er's side. Regardless of the exclamations of the people around him, he struck out with his palm as if there was a burst of rotating potential energy, and instantly struck the Taoist priest.
The talisman water that Wang Er swallowed was forced out, and it was sprayed all over the face of the wandering Taoist priest without leakage.
"Poof!!"
Almost at the same time, a stench suddenly dispersed, making the wandering Taoist priest's eyes turn red.
