Facing the north wall is an antique shelf, on which there are some weird things, such as chains made of gold and silver, cyan needles over [-] centimeters long, milky white mist the size of a fist, red gourds and jade nets that are only seen on TV. Bottles... Ji Hesheng counted them, there were as many as thirteen pieces in total, and all of them were restrained by that invisible force without exception, making it impossible to get them.

After walking through the three rooms, Ji Hesheng wanted to go out through the main door, but he couldn't open the door. It wasn't locked, but just like the things on the shelves, there was an invisible barrier on the surface, and his hands couldn't touch the door frame at all. .

☆, birthday gift

Ai Leyi's birthday was very lively, and the scale was much larger than the class reunion two days ago. Because his home was hit by a thunderstorm, many people who usually wanted to curry favor with his family found an excuse and came to the door with heavy gifts. The parking lot in front of the gate was full of famous brand cars.

Uncle Ai’s arrangement is that elementary school students share a room, junior high school students share a room, high school students share a room, friends and buddies share a room, peers and relatives share a house, and elder relatives share a house... Ai Leyi can see that Ji Hesheng is unwilling to meet with high school students. So he advised him: "You haven't healed yet, so stay at home, don't get a headache from being quarreled by them, I'll be back in the afternoon."

Ji Hesheng suddenly felt a little weird, and he couldn't tell exactly what was wrong: "I came here to celebrate your birthday, otherwise why am I staying here for so many days?"

Ai Leyi wanted to say that the two of us would have another meeting when we came back at night, but he swallowed the words again.

The two went out to get in the car, and came to his uncle Ai Qingcheng's Yunlai Hotel again. The entire second floor became a birthday scene. The left and right rows of tables in the lobby were filled with red wine and pastries. What a super big cake.

As soon as Ai Leyi came in, he was surrounded by a group of people, some greeted his relatives, some congratulated loudly, and some praised him endlessly to his uncle next to him.

Ji Hesheng consciously took a few steps behind, left the encirclement, walked in along the wall, saw all the high school students gathered in the corner, and walked over.

"Ji Hesheng, did you come with Ai Leyi?" The music class representative He Meixin asked enviously with a three-pointed atmosphere of surprise.

"Hmm." Ji Hesheng was not good at words, especially when facing girls, he felt that he had nothing to say at all.

"Ji Hesheng, why didn't you come to the class reunion the day before yesterday?" This time it was Jia Hongchang at the back table.

"I'm here, it's just... well, I'm sick, I came quite early, and fell asleep in the private room next to me. When I wake up, you all left."

"Then you've been living at Ai Leyi's house for the past few days?" It was He Meixin again.Seeing Ji He nod his head, he stopped talking.

Having just passed the college entrance examination, the most talked about topics are each other's grades and the school they will apply for. A group of people are arguing over which school is better because of a topic, and the whole hall is the loudest.

"Ji Hesheng, do you know which school Ai Leyi applied for?" Chen Xiangyu, who claims to be a childhood sweetheart with Ai Leyi, walked over with a glass of red wine shaking.

Ji Hesheng shook his head: "I don't know, probably either going abroad or Peking University."

Chen Xiangyu was very dissatisfied with the result, and looked him up and down: "Hey, you robbed the bank? The clothes cost thousands of dollars, right? Did Ai Leyi buy them for you?"

Ji Hesheng knew that the clothes would not be cheap, but he was also secretly surprised to hear the price of several thousand dollars.

And Chen Xiangyu's words attracted the attention of the surrounding students. She looked at Ji Hesheng and then at Ai Leyi. They were all sure, because they were both of the same style, with white shirts, black trousers, and casual leather shoes. , even the color is exactly the same.

Chen Xiangyu looked at him sideways: "I said, I heard that you two are very good, but I even bought clothes for you. This... you won't be taken care of by Ai Leyi, right?" Smiling, he picked up the red wine and took a sip, but he didn't swallow it, he held it in his mouth, and pointed at his high heels thinking it was cool.

Ji Hesheng didn't get angry with him either: "I'm at his house, and my clothes are torn, so I'll borrow his clothes first, anyway, we're about the same size."

He Meixin looked at the clothes on his body, and said enviously: "Ai Leyi is so kind to you, but you look handsome in this suit, it fits you very well." She didn't know that this dress was Ai Leyi's at all. Yi had someone buy it according to Ji Hesheng's figure, so of course it fit.

Chen Xiangyu finally swallowed the wine: "Ai Leyi is so kind to you, he celebrates his birthday, what gift did you prepare to repay him?"

Hearing this, Ji Hesheng felt really uncomfortable.It is really stressful for him to be friends with a tall, handsome and rich man like Ai Leyi. Even if he doesn't care what others say, the daily courtesies are also very nerve-wracking.

Ji Hesheng kowtowed to Bodhisattvas along with his grandfather since he was a child, and he has also practiced calligraphy well. Every time Ai Leyi celebrates his birthday, he will send a Buddhist scripture copied by himself.The first year of high school is a copy of "Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva's Universal Gate", and the second year of high school is a copy of "Puxian Bodhisattva's Actions and Vows".Neither is very long, two thin volumes.It says wishing my friend Ai Leyi to be blessed by the Bodhisattva, to be merciful, to be virtuous, and so on.

This year is quite special. After school starts, we will go our separate ways. So he wrote the "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Fundamental Vows Sutra", which is more than the previous two combined. He started writing after the new year and finished it during the winter vacation. , all in neat lowercase letters, neatly cut and bound with thread, and made into a book bag with bright yellow fabric, with the title and date of the book embroidered on the outside with red thread, and words such as Ji Hesheng presenting Ai Leyi.

Originally, he brought this book with him, and put it in the backpack given by his eldest cousin, but that day, lightning was caught in the room, and not only his clothes were chopped into coke, but the backpack and the books inside were also turned into ashes. .

Seeing his expression stagnated, as if in a dilemma, Chen Xiangyu chuckled lightly, and pointed at him with a finger holding the wine glass: "Even if you give him anything, it won't be worth the money of this sleeve." She said that she was very cool He took a sip, "He, after all, he did a loss-making business."

Looking at the backpacks on the other students and the boxes in their hands, he thought that he would give Ai Leyi a gift no matter what.

He pushed away Jia Hongchang behind him, turned around and walked out the door.

"Why did he go?" Jia Hongchang asked in surprise, "Isn't it to buy gifts?"

Chen Xiangyu sneered: "Who knows! Maybe I have no face to stay here and go back to my hometown in the countryside."

Ai Leyi celebrates his birthday, and out of politeness, he asks everyone in the group to go over to talk and have a few drinks. He started with elementary school classmates, and soon he became a group of high school classmates. Everyone crowded around to say happy birthday, and They took out their gifts one after another.

Most of them are wrapped in gift boxes, and there are a few that don’t need packaging on purpose. Some give basketballs, some give gold pens, and some give PS2.What Chen Xiangyu gave was a bottle of men's perfume that was said to be bought from Europe.

Ai Leyi didn't see Ji Hesheng, and was a little surprised. He looked around but couldn't find it, and was about to ask someone, when he saw Ji Hesheng coming back from the outside, holding a gift box in his hand.

"Where have you been, Xiaohe?"

"No, I'm going to get you a birthday present." Ji Hesheng smiled and shook the gift box, then handed it to him.

Ai Leyi took it with some surprise, he knew about the burning of the Ksitigarbha Sutra, Ji Hesheng's whole body was chopped into ashes by the lightning, and he also knew about the fact that he had nothing on him, but Ji Hesheng didn't know Where did you get this gift from?

Chen Xiangyu smiled and said, "Hey, I was empty-handed just now, and now I have a box of gifts? It can't be a plush toy bought from the street, right?"

"It's not a plush toy, it's...well, you'll find out when you get home and take a look, I'm sure you like it." Ji Hesheng and Ai Leyi said with a smile.

"It's not a plush toy? What is that? To be honest, we are all very curious. You are Ai Leyi's best friend. This gift must be very special. We didn't see it when we were in the first and second grades of high school. This time is the last time, let us open our eyes!"

When Ai Leyi took the box just now, he heard the sound of glassware colliding inside, and recognized that the packaging of the box was prepared by the front desk of the hotel, so he guessed that Ji Hesheng felt ashamed to be empty-handed, so he went down to get some wine glasses for the front desk to help I wrapped it up and brought it up, so I said, "It's a gift, it's better to have a little surprise, and I'll unwrap one by one when I get home at night."

After Ai Leyi finished speaking, he was about to leave with a bunch of presents, but Chen Xiangyu snatched the box away, and said while unpacking the outside: "Hey, it's better to be alone than to be happy together. I want to surprise everyone and share it together... ..."

"Give that to me!" Ai Leyi's voice was a little heavy.

"Hey, are you still angry?" Chen Xiangyu dodged back, unpacking more vigorously.

Ai Leyi put the gifts from everyone on the table, and wanted to go over and take the box back from her, but Ji Hesheng stopped him: "Let her open it, don't snatch it and break it on the ground, I really want to get it as soon as possible." I know, do you like it or not?"

While speaking, Chen Xiangyu had already tore open the packaging with her long and pointed nails, and took out a teapot and four tea bowls from inside: "Hey, which private room did you steal the tea set from?"

Ai Leyi saw that she was holding it casually, and walked over to take the teapot back. Chen Xiangyu saw that he was defending Ji Hesheng everywhere, and his heart was already full of jealousy. Too slippery! Sorry..."

This time, Ai Leyi got angry: "You said you are a girl, why are you so annoying when you talk and do things!" Ai Leyi went over and snatched the box, and picked up the cup that fell on the ground. Fortunately, the floor was covered with thick The carpet and the teacup were not broken, so he picked them up, wiped them carefully, and put them back in the box.

Ai Leyi has always been gentle and refined, and never scolds others. Today, saying that a girl hates her is already the most serious thing everyone has ever seen.

Chen Xiangyu's face turned red immediately, and tears appeared in her eyes, glistening in the dark and thick mascara: "It's just a broken porcelain cup, and the one in any private room in this hotel is better than his! Broken One, I will accompany him in the car!"

"I just think this is the best." Ai Leyi said coldly.

"Oh, this is Xiao Yi, right?" A balding middle-aged man walked over accompanied by his uncle Ai Qingcheng, "You are so old! I hugged you when you were young."

Ai Qingcheng introduced from the side: "This is Uncle Liu from the capital city. He passed by Longcheng and heard that you celebrated your birthday. He made time to come and see you."

Ai Leyi immediately knew who was coming, stood up and shook hands with the middle-aged man: "Hello, Uncle Liu."

"Okay." Uncle Liu looked at Ai Leyi, "Young man is handsome, there must be many little girls writing love letters to you, right? Don't be embarrassed, this kind of thing, haha, everyone has seventeen, everyone has eighteen , Uncle, when I was young..."

His eyes fell on the box in Ai Leyi's hand, to be precise, it was the tea set, and he reached out to pick up a tea bowl: "This is the tuanlong gaiwan from the Qing Dynasty." He weighed it with his hand and frowned again Shaking his head, "No, it was from Tang and Song Dynasties? But Tang and Song didn't have this style?"

☆、Tuanlong Gaiwan

Ai Leyi smiled and said: "This is a gift from my classmate, it should be a counterfeit."

"No, your uncle, I have been eating blue and white real porcelain from the Song Dynasty since I was four years old. I haven't checked it for so many years. This thing is definitely not a fake. It must be before the Ming and Qing Dynasties, but the style of this tuanlong is like It’s from the Qing Dynasty, so it’s a little unreasonable.”

Ai Leyi looked at Ji Hesheng in surprise. He knew the importance of this third uncle Liu. Since the Qing Dynasty, his ancestors had opened pawnshops, and his ancestral treasure appraisal skills can be said to be an authority in the antique world. If he said it was true, he would definitely not will be false.

Ai Leyi was very surprised where Ji Hesheng got this thing, and obviously the two of them came out of the house together, and they were still empty-handed when they entered the hotel, so there was an extra set of antique tea sets in a while, it was really easy to make people feel bad Think about the direction.

At this time, Uncle Liu also asked: "I see that you are packing it, who gave it to you?"

Ai Leyi hesitated and said nothing, for fear of bringing Ji Hesheng trouble that he could not bear.

Chen Xiangyu said next to him: "It's him. He didn't have anything in his hands when he entered the room just now. He had this set of cups when he went out to go to the bathroom. I don't know which private room he got it from!"

Ji Hesheng smiled and said, "This teapot is from my family's ancestors, well, to be precise, it's from my master."

"What kind of master do you have? Did he teach you how to dig the ground to plant corn cobs?" Chen Xiangyu thought she had told a joke, but after she finished speaking, she found the surroundings were strangely quiet.

Ji Hesheng thought for a while and said, "It's my Taoist master." He said to Ai Leyi, "I believe in Buddhism, you know? In fact, I also practice Taoism, so I got this from my Taoist master."

"What age is it, you still deal with those gods and ghosts, and you still practice Taoism? You still believe in Buddhism? Why don't you see that you cut your hair and look like a bald man!" Chen Xiangyu spoke more and more meanly.

"I can draw symbols." To prove it to everyone, Ji Hesheng dipped his hand in red wine, took the wrapping paper and spread it on the table. He concentrated on the center of his brain, which is at the midpoint between the center of his eyes and the occipital bone. , a small room appeared, which was quickly and clearly enlarged in his consciousness. His attention was focused on the table in the Westinghouse, and the book "Nine Heavens Dulu" was automatically opened, and there was a ghost-slaying talisman on page No. Draw it on the wrapping paper with wine according to the above graphic.

The first time he drew a talisman, it was intermittent and crooked. Fortunately, the red wine dried up quickly, and it was painted on the pink wrapping paper again, which was blurry. The most important thing was that everyone couldn't understand the ghostly talisman at all. Just like that.

Liu Sanshu did some research on the talisman: "Well, yes, this is indeed a Taoist talisman. You see, this is the talisman seat, and this is the talisman foot." No matter how advanced he didn't understand it.

"Even if your master gave you this thing, can you please tell everyone where you put it when you came here just now? Ai Leyi came with you, and he didn't even know you had this thing. If you can’t tell, you’re stealing!”

Ji Hesheng looked at her and said calmly, "Whether I stole it or not has nothing to do with you, and no one lost anything. Even if the police come, they can't file a case, can they?"

"Okay, okay, today is my birthday, and everyone is happy. After I blow out the candles, everyone will go to the private room to play, and they are not allowed to leave until they finish drinking!" Ai Leyi asked Help him take the gift away, and then go to someone else's place to toast.

Uncle Liu looked at the tea set that was taken away very reluctantly, and then said to Ji Hesheng: "Does your master have any treasures besides that tea set?"

Ji Hesheng shook his head: "No, even if you have it, you can't sell it."

Uncle Liu handed over a business card regretfully: "I've lived for more than 50 years, and this is all I need. I always hug Tang Sancai when I sleep. Hehe, it's a ghost vessel for the dead. I don't care about it. If you If you have something good to sell, feel free to contact me, even if I can’t afford it, I will definitely contact you with a good buyer, so you won’t lose money.” Then he bid farewell to Ai Qingcheng, and he had to rush to the airport to return to the capital to participate an auction.

Today is different from the previous class reunion, only thirteen high school classmates came, and none of the few who had a good relationship with Ji Hesheng came, so he seemed relatively lonely and did not fit in with the group. After blowing out the candles, everyone went to the private room to play , he came to say goodbye to Ai Leyi.

"Your injury hasn't fully healed yet. What if you get a headache again? Maybe there's something undetected. Why don't you stay with me for a few days?"

Ji Hesheng stretched out his arms and legs with a smile: "I'm all healed, I can't be healthier than now, your birthday is over, I should go home, or my uncle and the others should worry .”

Ai Leyi had no choice but to nod: "Okay, be careful when you go back alone." He took out his wallet, took out a stack from it, thought for a while, and handed over five, "Your things were all smashed into pieces by lightning." You're scumbag, I'll take the money back and take a taxi for you. Remember, if there's anything wrong with your body, call me right away, don't hold on."

Ji Hesheng smiled and took out one: "I'll take the bus back, but ten yuan is enough." He also saw that Ai Leyi had no change, so he took a hundred and left.

"Little Crane!" Ai Leyi called out again.

"Huh? What's the matter?" Ji He turned his head.

"Uh...thank you for the gift."

"Little meaning, happy birthday, you go back and play."

"Little Crane!" Ai Leyi shouted again just after taking two steps.

"What's wrong?" Ji He turned around.

"Well... don't take what Chen Xiangyu said, she's annoying, I didn't invite her..."

"Don't worry." Ji He said with a smile, "My dad raised a mistress back then, and my mom ran away with someone. I grew up with my grandfather, and I've heard all the nasty things. Her kindness can't hurt me at all. You Leave me alone, go back and play with them, or someone will come out and look for it later." Ji Hesheng waved his hand, then turned around and strode away, and walked into the elevator.

After returning home, his uncle Ji Changqing came to him and said, "Your grandfather is gone, are you not afraid to live in such a big yard by yourself? Go live with me. Your brother is working outside. If you don't come back easily, you can live here." His house."

"I won't go. I'm used to living here, and it's fine. My own grandfather, I'm not afraid."

"Look at your child, what's the point of going to the uncle's house." Ji Changqing persuaded him a few more words, and seeing Ji Hesheng's refusal, he said, "Then don't start the fire yourself, burn it until it's smoking. Go up to my place for dinner, it’s not far from here.”

"I can cook by myself. When my grandfather was here, I made all the soup and vegetables, so he would stew some rice. Besides, there are vegetables I grow in the backyard. If you don't eat them, it will be a waste."

Seeing that he insisted on refusing, Ji Changqing had no choice but to give up. When he left, he dropped 200 yuan for living expenses.

In the evening, his cousin Ji Hongming came again: "My mother has stewed chicken, let me call you over to eat."

Ji Hesheng pointed to the kitchen: "I have already prepared the sauced eggplant and it will be out of the pot immediately, so I won't go there. You go back and tell my aunt, and just say that I thank her."

"What's so good about sauced eggplant? You'd better save it for supper at night. Go, go to my house to eat chicken." Ji Hongming came over to pull him, and suddenly said, "Brother, your clothes are not bad, how much did you pay for them? I saw the pants in the mall, one thousand and two pairs!" He pinched Ji Hesheng's pants with his hands, "Damn, you are real! Did you win the lottery?"

Ji Hesheng was helpless: "I went to celebrate my classmate's birthday, and his electrical appliances short-circuited and caught fire, ruining my clothes and pants, so I borrowed his ones and he didn't want them anymore."

Ji Hongming nodded: "That's about the same. Let's go, let's put down your frying spoon and go to my house for dinner."

As he spoke, he went down to grab the spoon, but Ji Hesheng insisted on refusing, filled the food, brought it to the back room, picked up the chopsticks and started eating: "Why don't you eat with me here too?"

Ji Hongming pursed his lips: "You, you are such an idiot, then I'm leaving."

At night, the courtyard door was locked, Ji Hesheng was in the room, and he focused his attention on the center of his mind again. The quaint house became more and more clear and grew rapidly. When he opened his eyes again, he was already sitting on the Arhat bed.

Regarding this strange space that suddenly appeared, he still had some doubts in his heart. First of all, it must have something to do with the thunder that day. After a few minutes, many nearby people took pictures of this strange scene and posted it on the Internet. Many experts even came to check it on the spot, but they only concluded that the thunder was relatively large.

Because of Ai Leyi's protection, Ji Hesheng, who was struck by lightning and survived, was covered up, otherwise he would be surrounded by reporters when he was in the hospital.

The second factor should be the relic. After being struck by lightning, the relic also disappeared, and Ji Hesheng had a subconscious intuition that the relic is now in his head, and this classical room is inside the relic. .

In addition, Ji Hesheng guessed that this incident was related to the prophecy about hungry ghosts that his grandfather told him in his dream. The first talisman on the "Nine Heavens Dulu Dafa" was the ghost-slaying talisman. He felt that he was in the dark. These all seem to have been arranged by some powerful gods and Buddhas.At first he thought it was a Buddha and Bodhisattva, but there was a portrait of Lu Dongbin hanging in the room, which made him puzzled, but he was sure of one thing, that is, whether it came from a Buddha or an immortal, The most important thing is that God gave him a chance to survive in the world where hungry ghosts will be rampant in the future.

Everything in the space is real. He took out the tuanlong gaiwan set from the arhat bed in the east room. Zongheng will definitely appear, and what I should do now is to practice that "Nine Heavens Dulu".

☆、Nine Heavens Dulu

When he was at Ai Leyi's house, Ji Hesheng had already roughly read this miraculous Taoist book. There are three volumes in the book: Dao, Dharma, and Art. .These two parts are the least, only a few dozen pages, and the following hundreds of pages are all about how to use Taoism, there are five fires, eight thunders, six guards, seven tactics... Most of them are aimed at ghosts and zombies.

According to the book, to practice Taoism, one must first learn how to draw symbols.To learn to draw talismans, you must first purify your mind. Taoist priests draw talismans just like monks chanting incantations. You must have a pure mind. Start from the head of the talisman and tap the pen down. This is called "creating the foundation of chaos". The higher, the greater the power.

If you are someone else, with distracting thoughts in your mind, learning, work, fame and fortune, it is difficult to achieve a pure heart for a moment.However, Ji Hesheng has learned to take everything lightly since he was a child. Hatred, fame and fortune are all dispensable, and he doesn't have the ideal of making a career in the future.

If others are cultivating immortals, they must first stay away from the world, go to a quiet place, let go of all the worries in the world of mortals, meditate for several days, or even several months before they can calm their minds, and Ji Hesheng has easily achieved this point , It took only midnight to draw the first qualified Ghost Slaying Talisman.

Drawing talismans is like practicing calligraphy. It consumes a lot of paper and cinnabar. After only two days, he used up all the materials in the space. Introduced later in the book, many Taoist arts need the help of talismans, so he decided to practice all the talismans until they are formed.

Cinnabar and talisman paper can be bought on Taobao, and the price is not very expensive, but he doesn't have any source of income now, so he can't ask his relatives for money to buy these. Thinking about whether he will have to go to school in the future, he worries again.

After thinking about it, he still took out the business card of Uncle Liu and dialed the number on it.

"Hello, who are you?"

Ji Hesheng was a little nervous: "Excuse me, are you Mr. Liu Mingzhang Liu?"

"Yes, I am, what's the matter with you?"

"Ah, I'm Ji Hesheng, Ai Leyi's classmate. I met you at his birthday party in Longcheng a few days ago. I gave him his set of tuanlong porcelain bowls."

"Oh, I remembered it, I remembered it."

"Well, what, it might be a bit presumptuous to call you this time. I have a pen holder that I want to sell. Can you help me? It's carved from ivory and has the Eight Immortals crossing the sea on it. How much can it be worth?"

"What's on it is not important, it mainly depends on the age, it depends on who made it and what background it has. And this kind of thing can't be explained clearly on the phone, otherwise, if you have time, come to the capital. Antiques, You have to see it clearly in person, and if you really want to sell it, you have to send it over."

"OK then."

I asked Liu Mingzhang for the address and hung up the phone.Ji Hesheng took his mobile phone and thought about where to get the toll. He didn't want to ask his relatives for money, but to find someone to borrow money. When he arrived in the capital, he sold the pen holder and he could pay back the money.If you open your mouth with your relatives, it will definitely be free, but if you have a legitimate reason for money, they will not agree to such a thing as going to the capital.

Just as she was thinking, the phone rang, and it was Ai Leyi: "Xiaohe, I heard you have a pen holder for sale?"

"Ah... how do you know?"

"Liu Mingzhang told me. Why do you want to sell pen holders? Lack of money? Or do you have a headache again?"

"No, no, I just thought... well, I'm going to go to university in the future, and I can't always rely on my uncle and aunts for support. Well, let me sell a few antiques that my master left me."

Ai Leyi was silent for more than ten seconds, and then said, "Bring the pen holder and sell it to me."

"What are you doing?"

"Don't get me wrong, Liu Mingzhang said that the tuanlong gaiwan you gave me is real. I have also found someone to identify it. It was more than 1000 years ago. And more than 1000 years ago, no such tea set has been found, so Its value is very high." After a short pause, "I'm talking about its archaeological value, once it is taken out, the country will be the first to find your master, and you must find out the origin, you know what I mean No?"

"Oh... I understand." Ji Hesheng was silent for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "I'll sell you the pen holder, which is carved from ivory. You can have someone identify it. If it's real ivory, you can give me 1 yuan." Money will do."

"I don't care how much it is, you have to find an expert to appraise it, and then I will give you the money according to the market price."

Putting down the phone, Ji Hesheng sighed, took out the ivory pen holder from the space, put it in a black plastic bag, and then went out, took the car into the city, and just got in the car when Ai Leyi's call came: "You are still here Is it the old house at home? I will drive to pick you up right now."

"Oh, no, I'm already on the bus."

"Why do you come by car, find a place to get off, my car has already left the city, hurry up, I will miss it later."

Ji Hesheng had to get off the car halfway, and after waiting for less than 10 minutes, Ai Leyi drove up: "Get in the car."

Ji Hesheng got on the co-pilot, and Ai Leyi turned around and returned: "Why are you in such a hurry? What are you doing with the money? Can you tell me?"

"I want to learn how to draw talismans, so I have to buy talisman paper and cinnabar." Ji Hesheng told his friend what he could say.

Ai Leyi was immediately shocked by the answer: "No way? Are you really practicing Taoism? You don't want to become a monk, do you?"

"Becoming a monk... I didn't think about it before, but what you said is really a way out." Ji Hesheng said seriously, "In the evaluation that day, my grades were at most two books, and I don't want to miss it."

Ai Leyi was silent for a while: "Now companies recruit workers, at least a bachelor's degree is required. If you don't study, you may not be able to find a job. Besides, you haven't turned eighteen yet, right? What are you going to do now? Have you ever thought about it? What difficulty, take it out, we will solve it for him, your relatives can't help you, and me."

"You have helped me a lot..."

"It's not a question of how much, we are good buddies, don't say I can help, even if I can't help, you should tell me, let's find a way together. Even if you study in three universities, it's better than not studying, and it's okay. Go through other channels and see if you can find a better private school."

"I understand what you mean, let's talk about it."

According to Ji Hesheng's meaning, Ai Leyi immediately called an expert to strengthen the pen holder. After the transaction, he returned to the countryside that night, but the expert did not come in time, so Ai Leyi stayed at Ji Hesheng's house for one night.

The next day, I waited for a long time. It was not until the afternoon that the experts came late. After identification, the pen holder was made of pure ivory. thing.

After sending the expert away, Ai Leyi gave Ji Hesheng a card: "The expert's suggestion for this thing is 60 yuan, but it's actually far more than that. I don't have that much money on hand, so I'll give you [-] yuan first."

Ji Hesheng took the card: "It doesn't need that much, in fact, the [-] is enough for me."

"Brothers settle accounts clearly, I owe you 50 yuan, which is already a huge advantage! I won't call you the IOU. After a while, I will get the money, and I will call you the card. The password is My birthday."

With the money, Ji Hesheng felt confident. When he returned home, he bought bundles of talisman paper and catties of cinnabar. Every day he either practiced drawing talismans or meditated.

I received the admission notice this day, and it really is a three-year university. Ji Hesheng really doesn't want to go to the university. Through these days of practice, he has already experienced the benefits of cultivating the Tao. The six senses such as vision and hearing have been greatly improved. Eating in the house, neighbors outside, wind and grass in the front and back yards, people and birds are all clearly known, and there is even an illusion that the surrounding world is getting clearer.

As for the body being light and healthy, not to mention being full of energy, there are some later in the Daoist scriptures. After cultivating the golden elixir and becoming a Sanxian, you can live without food. Life is nothing more than basic necessities, food, housing and transportation. The most important problem of eating is solved. He doesn't have to work hard to make a living like other people, and his parents are away, and no one needs him to support him. This life is just what he wants most, so it doesn't matter whether he goes to college or not. up.

But his uncle refused to do it, and came to call him home to tell him about it: "How can you be successful if you don't go to school? Your brother said that everyone must have a bachelor's degree in the future, which is the minimum standard. Besides, you are so old. Small and thin, why don’t you go to college and go home to farm?”

Ji Hesheng silently picked up the vegetables and didn't speak.

His aunt Li Huiying also said: "Listen to your uncle, you still have to study, no matter what you have to finish college."

Ji Changqing drank half a glass of wine, and his face began to flush: "You don't have to worry about the tuition fee, I have already prepared it for you, now your brother has graduated, and it will take a few years to get married, there is no place to spend money , Besides, there is still the third child, how could our two families confess you!"

Another day later, his sister-in-law Ji Changhui asked her younger cousin to pick him up again.The little cousin is called Lu Xiuhe. He is 15 years old this year. He is tall and thin when he is growing up. His legs are spread apart like a compass.Among these brothers, the little cousin is the closest to him.

When her little uncle died in a car accident, Ji Changhui brought Lu Xiuhe, who was only five years old, back to her natal home.Lu Xiuhe didn't have a playmate, so he was very attached to Ji He's voice, no matter where he went, he followed behind, even when he went to the toilet, he squatted outside to watch.

After a long time, Ji Hesheng became annoyed. For a while, he was bullied by the children in the neighborhood, and he was in a bad mood. He even said a lot of hurtful things to Lu Xiuhe, and often drove him away.

Once during Chinese New Year, Ji Hesheng went to other people's gates to pick up the silent whip crumbs, and Lu Xiuhe followed cautiously, and offered to help him dig up the whip crumbs on the ground. In the end, he found a There was only a loud second kicker, and the child held up half a firecracker to please his cousin, but the second kicker suddenly exploded in his hand, Lu Xiuhe was blown out on the spot and fell to the ground, Ji Hesheng was terrified , ran home and hid in the cabinet.

Later, Lu Xiuhe was sent to the hospital. When he came back, the middle finger of his right hand was shortened, half of his body was swollen, and he was lying on the kang so painful that he couldn't eat.Ji Changhui picked up the bamboo pole to hit Ji Hesheng, but was stopped by his grandfather.

Later, when Lu Xiuhe recovered, he was still attached to Ji Hesheng, and Ji Hesheng never chased him away, even because other children laughed at Lu Xiuhe's disability, he rushed over to scratch and bite him desperately.
