#1024 - Qian Kai
Upon entering, they encountered a woman with tear-streaked face walking out. A slightly chubby man in a Taoist robe quickly followed, solicitously advising, "Madam Liu, your husband has already died unexpectedly. His three souls and seven spirits are nowhere to be found. Even if you use ginseng soup to sustain his life, he won't live beyond seven days. You should make arrangements for the funeral as soon as possible, to avoid being caught unprepared when the time comes!"
The woman turned back and said, "Reverend Qian, is there no way to restore my husband's soul? He really doesn't have any injuries on his body. He was just frightened by something and lost his soul!"
The Taoist shook his head regretfully, "The method of calling back the soul differs from sect to sect, but in essence, it's not too difficult. It's just that your husband has been in this state for too long.
From the separation of his three souls and seven spirits to now, it has been more than three months. The body's original essence has been exhausted. Even if the soul is stuffed back, he won't live for more than two months.
Moreover, he will be in a coma for more than half of the time. Why make your husband suffer again? Just let it be.
It's better for the living, better for the dead, better for you, and better for him!"
"Thank you for your guidance, Reverend Qian, but my heart..."
The woman couldn't express herself for a moment and choked up a few times. Then, she covered her face with a handkerchief and staggered away.
The Taoist still looked regretful, muttering to himself, "Taking people's money and helping them avoid disaster, this was originally an excellent deal. But alas, the deceased's soul has disappeared without a trace. What a pity, what a pity!"
At this moment, the Taoist suddenly noticed several people standing at the door. He hurriedly took a few steps forward to greet them, cupping his hands politely, "What brings you two here?"
Those who wander the Jianghu have sharp eyes.
Being a member of the Three Religions and Nine Schools, he naturally mingled in the Jianghu. To make money, he had to contact all kinds of people. Although the two children in front of him were not old, their attire and demeanor were different from ordinary people. So, he spoke with a bit more politeness.
Qi Shan remained silent, while Xiao Douzi stepped forward and said grandly, "Our young master heard that you recently reunited Old Zhang with the netherworld and was curious, so he wanted to pay you a visit!"
"So, this is the young master. May I ask which family's young master you are?" The Taoist sized up Qi Shan and asked.
"You Taoist is so blind! Coming to Beizhuang and not recognizing our young master? Our young master is an immortal child even the county magistrate treats with courtesy. Who in these ten miles and eight villages dares to disrespect him?"
Xiao Douzi's chin was almost raised to the sky, feeling extremely proud.
The Taoist was slightly startled, "So it's Young Master Li in person. Please forgive my poor eyesight!"
Qi Shan waved his hand and said, "Reverend, you don't need to be so polite. Since you've heard of my reputation as an immortal child, you should also know that I'm different from those with real magic power. But I've admired cultivating immortality and seeking the Tao since I was young, but I've never found the right method. I wanted to find a real master with real skills to learn from.
So, after hearing of Reverend Qian's great name, I rushed over here without stopping!"
Reverend Qian was slightly stunned, thinking, 'He actually wants to become a disciple?'
This is interesting. This little baby in front of me is obviously from a wealthy family. Looking at his attire, demeanor, and expression, his family must be rich.
If I really take him in, the annual offerings will definitely not be a small amount. But rich people are also whirlpools of trouble, and it may be difficult to serve him in the future.
With a thought, he had already made up his mind and said politely.
"Young Master Li is too kind. I've only learned a few Maoshan spells, helping people read their palms, calculate their destinies, and occasionally dealing with Yin and Yang affairs. I really can't be considered capable.
If Young Master Li wants to find a master, perhaps you can go to Qiantang. The Buddhism and Taoism there are extremely prosperous. You might be able to find a truly capable master!"
Seeing him refuse, Qi Shan smiled.
His surname is Qian, his given name is Kai, plus he's a Maoshan Taoist, and looking at his round figure, wearing a yellow robe, and sticking on two eight-character mustaches, he's exactly like the senior brother who appeared in 'Encounter of the Spooky Kind'.
It seems that this world is not only 'The Legend of the White Snake' but also some other movie worlds.
This is interesting!
I remember in the movie 'Encounter of the Spooky Kind', Master Ye described Reverend Qian like this.
This person's surname is Qian, his given name is Kai, truly living up to his name, 'seeing money opens his eyes'. As long as you give him money, he'll do anything.
Other things like using zombies to harm people are nothing in his eyes, let alone teaching disciples and passing on spells.
Continuing the Maoshan Taoist arts and spreading the branches and leaves is originally the responsibility of Maoshan disciples.
Qi Shan said directly: "Stop, let's not go first!"
Xiao Douzi and the two people carrying the sedan were stunned. They subconsciously took a few steps forward before slowly stopping. Eight-character Hu was a little nervous and asked with a smile on his face: "Young Master, what's wrong with you? Is it because you are not comfortable sitting inside? I will go back and find that girl. The cotton cushion was just made yesterday, but it is uncomfortable today. This is terrible, I have to tear down his door!"
Qi Shan impatiently said: "Okay, what are you involved in? Shut up first!"
"Okay, okay, Young Master, you command!"
"Don't go to Guandi Temple, go home later!"
"Okay!" Upon hearing this, Eight-character Hu shouted, and the two people in front and back used their strength to lift the sedan chair up again, turned it one hundred and eighty degrees lightly, and shook and trembled back.
Xiao Douzi followed outside and said strangely: "Young Master, why aren't you going again?"
Qi Shan shook his head: "Today's timing is wrong. I still lack something, even if I go, I guess I can't handle it. The most important thing is that I have guessed the true identity of this Taoist.
Go to the Yamen and run an errand later, and tell Wang Bantou that I asked him to find two people to investigate the Taoist and collect information about the people he has recently contacted and what happened!
Just ask a few questions, don't embarrass him!"
Xiao Douzi was a little unclear, but he still nodded.
"This matter is easy to handle. You helped Wang Bantou out of trouble last time, and he owes us a favor. He will definitely not say anything about this matter, but Young Master, what are you singing here?"
