Chapter 387 The Blind Are Not Blind
At dusk, Blind Wang took advantage of the dim light, groping for the pots and ladles, and struggling to cook dinner.
The water has just been added over there, and a greeting comes from outside the fenced yard.
"Is anyone home?"
"Who?"
"I'm in poverty, I'm passing by a treasure land, I'm so thirsty, I'm here to ask for a bowl of water!"
"It turned out to be the Taoist priest, fast forward, fast forward, the water tank is in the courtyard, you can fetch water yourself."
"Thank you, old man, for your hospitality."
Da da footsteps, from outside the courtyard into the courtyard, fell to the side of the water tank, the old man listened for a long time, but he didn't hear the sound of water, he seemed to feel something in his heart, and sighed softly.
He was blind for a long time and could only see a glimmer of peripheral vision, living in a muddle, presumably the water tank must have been muddy already.
He couldn't see, and ate with pleasure.
In the eyes of others, I don't know what kind of filth it looks like.
"Daoist, there is a well in the village, you can go there to get water."
"Crash..."
As soon as the words fell, there was a sound of scooping water.
"Old man, you hide this melon so well, Gulu...gulu..."
While teasing, there was another sound of gulping water.
"The old man is blind, always forgetting things... Oh, look at my memory, the pot is still burning!"
As Blind Wang said, he slapped his head suddenly, as if thinking of something, hurriedly followed his memory, rushed to the side of the pot, fumbled to pour the ingredients on the chopping board into the pot, and accidentally touched the edge of the pot, as if it was very hot, Subconsciously withdrew his arm.
"Old man, this food is really delicious. I've been driving all day, so can I stay overnight?"
The Taoist's voice sounded beside him.
"The Taoist priest is polite, although you can live freely."
Blind Wang seemed very happy, and quickly responded, probably because there were few people to communicate with, he seemed very interested, and asked, "Where did the Taoist chief come from?"
"The fairy family came from the sky."
"The Taoist priest is really good at joking."
"How can I be so funny?"
"Where do ghosts and gods come from in this world? If there are no ghosts and gods, how can there be immortals?"
"How does the old man know that there are no ghosts and gods in this world?"
"Hey, Daoist, don't think the old man is blind. I was not blind when I was young. I have lived for more than 30 years, and I have never seen a ghost."
"I didn't see it, doesn't mean it didn't exist? Otherwise, where did those ghost legends come from?"
"Hey, Taoist priest, I said something that shouldn't be said, the ghosts and gods are the tyrants of the government!"
"Hey, how do you say that?"
"Hey, those bad breeds raised by animals do all kinds of bad things and don't tell them. We ordinary people feel uncomfortable. What can we do? We can only make up ghosts and gods to point and curse. Otherwise, why don't my wife and son come back to see us? ?”
Mo Chuan was stunned.
He especially remembered that when he stepped into this world, he had guessed countless times about the origin of myths and legends.
Only now did he realize in a daze that the old man's explanation might be the only correct answer.
That is not the legend left by monks;
That is the people's longing for beauty and fairness!
"Hearing what the old man said, Mrs. Linzi... has passed away?"
"...There was a famine that year, and there was no harvest. The government even came to collect taxes and robbed the crops. My daughter-in-law stepped forward to stop her and refused to let her go. She was kicked. At that time, people disappeared. Later, my son I also left, and I also cried and went blind, and I have lived until now."
Blind Wang's tone was calm and concise, as if he had told people countless times.
Mo Chuan was silent.
After a long time, he asked again: "Since the old man doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, why do you pray to God?"
"I, I can't do anything. If you don't believe in God, what can you do? Taoist priest, you are a Taoist, tell me the truth, is there a god in this world?"
"Have."
"Really?"
"real."
"Then why don't my daughter-in-law and my son come back to see me?"
"They died unexpectedly, the law of heaven owed them, and they must have been reincarnated into wealthy families."
"Really?"
"If you don't believe me, open your eyes and take a look?"
Blind Wang was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously rubbed his eyes. A little color seeped out of the hazy light in his vision, and the color became more and more colorful.
He saw it.
I saw a bunch of dead branches and leaves cooking in the mottled iron pot.
After the pot stove, the wall collapsed, and half of the collapsed village covered with weeds could be seen faintly.
"This--"
Blind Wang was shocked all over, and suddenly turned to look at the voice of the Taoist priest.
Then I saw a Taoist priest, who looked like a god-man, with a dazzling light all over his body, looking at him with pity.
"There are... really gods in this world?"
Blind Wang was stunned. In the next second, his face turned blue, and he pointed at Mo Chuan's nose and cursed:
"You gnat slave, you are not a god at all, you don't want to lie to me, if there is a god, how can you ignore us people, I pray day and night, you don't show up, what are you doing now..."
Mo Chuan watched Blind Wang yelling quietly.
While fingering and cursing, Blind Wang's body gradually became transparent, and a gust of wind blew past, dissipating like smoke and mist.
"After all, you still believe... I am a fairy!"
"No, you actually still don't believe that I am a god, you just believe that your daughter-in-law and son were reincarnated to a rich family."
Mo Chuan shook his head slightly as he looked at the blind ghost who vanished into thin air because of his obsession.
There is great suffering in the world!
"Crack!" The sound of crushing dead branches suddenly came from outside the collapsed building.
Mo Chuan turned his head to look, and saw two gas refiners, a man and a woman, came out from behind half of the thatched hut in disgrace. When he saw Mo Chuan, he said in surprise:
"You, who are you? Where is the earthbound spirit here?"
"Poverty Dao Zhiyi, I have seen two fellow Taoists, the earth binding spirit here has lost its obsession, and it has disappeared."
"What? Dead!"
The man and woman exclaimed in surprise, with ugly faces.
"Well, is there a problem?"
Mo Chuan asked.
"This earth-bound spirit is us..."
The female cultivator jumped up anxiously, and was about to criticize, but was stopped by the male cultivator: "Junior Sister, that's all, since we have lost our obsessions, our mission has been completed. Although there is no token, as long as the master sends someone to check You can testify yourself."
The female monk's complexion changed slightly, and she stammered: "Okay, okay, that's the only way to go."
Then the male monk turned around, cupped his hands towards Mo Chuan and said, "The three wonders of the Poor Dao Sect are disciples of the Wujian Sect. How dare you ask me, what sect and sect are you?"
Mo Chuan replied: "There is no school, no sect, just casual cultivators."
"It's a coincidence that our sect is currently recruiting disciples, would you like to be a colleague?"
"Fellow daoists are polite, poor daoists have a loose mind, and are used to wandering around the world, so I'm afraid they won't be restrained."
"It sounds like Fellow Daoist has been to many places?"
"It's natural!"
"Excellent! Meeting is fate, how about going to Benmenfang City and getting drunk?"
As Zong Sanqi said, he seemed to realize that it was too abrupt for him to invite you hastily, and he quickly explained: "The poor Taoist has not been out of the world for a long time, and he rarely goes out. ? Pindao is grateful."
"Well, whatever, it's dark, so it's time to rest for a while." Mo Chuan replied.
"Miaoji, friend Zhidao, this way please!" Zong Sanqi was overjoyed, and hurriedly greeted him warmly.
