I am a female photographer

Chapter 5 Can You Take It?

……

I was in a coma for a long time. Grandma's official statement is eight days, which coincides with my destiny.

I'm not idle either, I've been dreaming, vaguely, I can always see figures dangling in front of my face...

I can't see the appearance clearly, but I can see the color of the clothes, the long gowns of Yishui, there are all kinds of colors, red, white, green, gray...

All of them are still moaning, talking about what happened.

I confusedly asked what happened, am I going to die?
"What?"

A voice came back to me, "It's early, you girl is early! I can't bear it!!"

I frowned, the voice was very thin, it seemed to be coming out of my throat, and the pitch was still uneven, with a feeling of yin and yang. I heard it awkwardly, sweating profusely and opened my eyes. The big grandma who was sitting beside my bed and crying.

"Grandma..."

As soon as I made a sound, I realized that my voice was very hoarse, and I was lying on my stomach, "Shoulder hurts..."

"Awake?"

The grandma wiped away my tears when she saw this, and helped me tidy up the gauze on my back shoulder, "You child, now you know the depth, and you know it's difficult to get started?"

"Grandma... I had a dream..."

I whispered, "There are a lot of people talking around me, they say it's too late, I pick it up too early..."

"That's because our fairy loves you!"

Grandma helped me to sit up, "Jingwei, do you remember that I hate you for whipping you?"

"Do not."

I shook my head, the pain in the back of my shoulders, I wanted to wipe her tears, but I couldn’t lift my arms. For some reason, when I looked into the eyes of the grandma, I felt a little guilty, "Grandma, I have never carried eight whips... ...Is it impossible to enter the Tao?"

"can."

Grandma sniffed and looked at me, "Jingwei, this whip has no time limit, it symbolizes the eight calamities in your life, and represents your determination to enter the Tao. As long as you hit eight whips, it means that you are ready to be a teacher." Prepared, I will be able to overcome any hurdles in the future...

Actually, what the old fairy said is right, you are indeed picking up early, the word determination is not as simple as talking about it, if you really put your foot down, it won't hurt so much. "

I listened carefully, without words or energy to say anything.

On that day, I finally figured out one thing. I don't know what disasters other gentlemen who want to enter the Tao will suffer, but I know that I will break!
Regardless of what kind of "breaking" you have to endure after entering the Tao, the foundation of walking the Tao is the bloody eight whips.

If I want to learn Taoism, I can't escape the Eight Whiplashes no matter what. Fortunately, it can be accumulated and divided into installments. That is to say, for the time being, I have taken one-eighth of my long journey.

Bitter.

It's really not a joke.

The first class I entered the Tao, I was made to lie in bed for a whole month before I finished it!

Grandma asked me afterwards that she didn't regret it, and I replied with certainty, 'I don't regret it. '

I've lost all my losses, is there any energy in saying 'regret'?

I didn't feel much before, I just thought that the grandma's profession was amazing and arrogant. No matter what she talked with the victim, I was baptized from the perspective of a bystander.

But ever since the whip was taken off, I seem to have been opened to some kind of spiritual aperture, and I will always look at the enshrined order flag on the hall when I am hooked...

The feeling of wanting to possess becomes more and more obvious, the palms will be hot, and the blood will be faintly boiling, as if before the stormy waves and waiting after the stormy waves.

Mentality, I really can't explain it clearly.

However, you don't care how contradictory my mood is, whether the whip is willing to be taken, or forced to be sentenced, our Harbin city has no answer.

Why?

Rehabilitation!
Indirectly, it can be regarded as allowing me to get what I wanted.

……

After recovering from the injury, I continued to study in the town. The most obvious change was that I was able to look at Xiangtou. When my shoulders itched, I felt it. The memorial tablets are incensed collectively, and after smoking, hold your breath and observe, and within 3 minutes, you will get the answer——

"The incense head is about the same level...higher than the middle third..."

The incense mist curled up, I stared at my mouth and muttered, "This is... Xian Ruixiang, within three days, there must be auspicious omens!"

I was overjoyed, I rubbed my hands and bowed to the old fairy, "This means that I will do well in the exam today, Jingwei would like to thank everyone here..."

"Jingwei!"

Grandma's voice suddenly came from behind, she turned her face away, and Grandma looked at me at the door speechlessly, "How many times have I said this, don't be so clever, the meaning of Xiangtou is so simple on the surface!"

I giggled, scratched my head and looked at the grandma, "Didn't I study, grandma, Grandpa Mao said that only by studying hard can I make progress every day! Xiangtou said, my monthly exam today will definitely be the first in the class." Ten! It's very auspicious to present Daphne Fragrance, so don't worry about it!"

"You, you just learned your smooth tongue from your third uncle!"

I couldn't stop laughing when my grandma mentioned the third uncle, raised my eyebrows like the third uncle talked to the grandma, "Aunt Hei, are you talking about me? I am a leader of the man who covers the world. The leader of the prodigal son, may Zhu Yan remain the same forever, enjoy the entertainment in the flowers, and forget the worries in the wine~~"

The third uncle was originally named Liu San'er, and he was also a Taoist gentleman. He respectfully called his grandmother "Black Aunt" and lived in Harbin. Said it was fate with me.

After I was sent to my grandma, he often came to see me, laying a floor in the store, and often lived in the eighth month, took me to play, took care of me, worked hard and didn't know how many streets away my father , the person is nice, but the wine is too good, and he starts singing and humming after drinking too much, a bit like a gentleman who doesn't care.

But to be honest, my deviating personality is indeed more influenced by him. He and grandma are like my two elders, one with a white face and the other with a red face.

"Grandma, when will third uncle come over this year?"

After I finished studying, I asked my grandma, "I miss him so much."

"He, he came here because he couldn't afford wine!"

The grandma was too lazy to pay attention to my appearance, and patted the black cloth bag on her body, "I received a call to go to Heishui Town to show people what happened, and I will be back in a day or two. Take good care of your home, and I will come back at night before going to bed." Check the gate."

I said oh, when I grew up, I was the one who looked at the store when grandma went out to look at things. I got used to it, and I even looked at the desk with my schoolbag on my back.

"Need not."

Grandma and I went downstairs together, "It's just to help the former old owner to look at the foundation of the Yangzhai, and I will go to his ancestral grave on the way, small things..."

Then, the grandma continued to tell me, "It will be Qingming in three days. When you come back from self-study at night, remember to put some leftovers outside the door, put incense sticks on the passers-by, and keep talking, don't let them stay in the shop." Wandering around the door doing things."

I nodded, I understand all of this, those who are in the business of dead people pay more attention to sewing the New Year and festivals, especially Qingming Festival, Ghost Festival, and cold clothes. These are all dedicated to commemorate the following festivals. ask for something.

Although they can't get in, they are also annoying wandering around the door. Sometimes passers-by with low luck will be confused, and things like ghosts blocking the wall will happen, so we will give small favors, throw a few pieces of burnt paper, or give some meals. , Indirectly do some good deeds.

"correct."

After closing the store door, the grandma looked at me as if remembering something, "Jingwei, your dad called again last night, I will take you to Harbin City after the high school entrance examination, just right, this time go directly there to study High school, save yourself the trouble."

"Milk!"

I immediately became anxious, "Didn't I tell you everything! I want to keep you by my side to learn skills, why do you want me to go to Harbin!"

The whip is in vain!

The eldest grandma threw out a sentence lightly, "There are still seven whips, can you bear it?"

"I……"

I let out a groan, and the healed wound on the back of my shoulder felt a faint pain again. After the seven whips, I have to go straight down to spend the Qingming Festival!
