"Dad, let's ship a few more times in the future. Maybe we can catch another snow Koi and change it into a jade pendant like dad." Lu Pingxing said excitedly.
"Snow carp is a spirit, not a cabbage. It's not easy to catch, silly boy!" Lu Yong was amused and scolded.
"Dad, take out your jade pendant and see what's different." Lu Ping said with a smile.
Lu Yong took out a red brocade bag from his arms, took out a white jade pendant and handed it to Lu Pingxing. After Lu Pingxing took it, he put it in the palm of his hand and compared it with the wooden spirit pendant he just got to see the difference.
The white jade pendant is the same size as the wooden spirit pendant. The front is carved with a portrait of Jane Moon Fairy, and the back is engraved with the Bagua Dharma array, in which the word Lu Yong is engraved. But it is more exquisite than the wooden spirit pendant, and the fairy portrait is more realistic.
This white jade pendant is also a kind of Jian Yueling pendant, but it is more advanced. In addition to its simple body protection effect, it can also strengthen the body for a long time. The jade Lingpei is carved from Qingtian white jade. Qingtian white jade can emit a kind of natural jade gas, which has the wonderful function of consolidating the foundation and cultivating the yuan after being absorbed by the mortal body.
The jade made simple moon spirit pendant is very rare and can only be given to pilgrims who have made great contributions to the Taoist temple. The jade made simple moon spirit Pendant of old man Lu was only obtained after good luck.
Lu Yong is a fisherman. He was born in Hongyan village next to Fusha lake. All the villagers in the village live by fishing. Lu Yong is a good hand in the village. He gains a lot every time he goes out of the boat. He knows exactly where the water is urgent and where there may be fish schools in such a large Fusha lake.
Lu Yong clearly remembered that day when it was drizzling and many villagers were reluctant to leave the boat. After a simple breakfast, Lu Yong swam to the middle of the lake with his small fishing boat.
Fusha lake is extremely vast, nearly 800 miles wide. At this time, the lake was covered with a thin layer of rain and fog, and Lu Yong's lone boat was seen on the lake.
Lu Yong, dressed in a coir raincoat, stood at the stern of the boat, his hands red, and struggled to support the pole forward. It's winter and the drizzle is freezing on my face. Lu Yong's waxy yellow face was wrinkled and sad.
Lu Yong had two daughters and always wanted a son, but he couldn't conceive, but he was worried to death.
Therefore, Lu Yong often goes to Gaoyang Taoist temple to pray for incense, hoping that Jane Moon Fairy can bless him in his later years.
Lu Yong is just an ordinary fisherman with a poor family. He often went to the Taoist temple to pray for blessings and offered a lot of sesame oil money, which made him even more embarrassed. But Lu Yong gritted his teeth and insisted on frugality on weekdays. It was harder than anyone to go out early and return late when fishing.
Because Lu Yong is the only son, the incense of the old Lu family points to him. He is nearly 50 years old and still has no son under his knee. How can he not be in a hurry? Lu Yong was afraid that after the old Lu family broke in his hand, as soon as he had spare money, he ran to Gaoyang Taoist temple.
Lu Yong put down the bamboo manuscript, the wooden boat floated forward slowly with the water flow, picked up the heavy twine fishing net, soaked it in the lake water first, lifted it up, slightly trimmed it, and then sprinkled it on the lake. The fishing net was turned into a large circular net, laid on the water surface and sank slowly. When the fishing net sank to the bottom of the lake, Lu Yong slowly pulled it up and slowly closed the fishing net.
After the fishing net was closed, Lu Yong began to pull it up hard. He felt the weight of the fishing net in his hand through experience. Lu Yong's face showed a lost color. The fishing net was too light. The net could not produce much goods, at most three or two small fish.
The fishing net slowly surfaced, and as Lu Yong guessed, several small fish hung scattered on the net. Lu Yong tried to lift the whole net out of the water to prepare for the next net.
Suddenly, the water in the net splashed with a splash. Lu Yong was happy that a big fish had entered the net! Lu Yong quickly grasped the fishing net in his hand and suddenly lifted it. The whole fishing net was put out of the water.
A bright red one foot fish in the fishing net is jumping in the boat. It is covered by the fishing net and can't jump high. This big fish is afraid to weigh ten kilograms. It is very fat. The fish is red and has white patterns, like printed snowflakes.
Lu Yong suddenly an exciting spirit, rushed up, pressed the big fish, showed a surprised color, and looked very excited. The big fish caught as like as two peas in the snow white Koi.
Lu Yong couldn't believe it. He caught a "snow Koi" from his net and slapped himself. He wasn't dreaming. Lu Yong showed a giggle.
There is a spirit fish "snow Koi" in Fusha lake, which is occasionally caught by fishermen and offered to Gaoyang Taoist temple. You can get rich rewards from Gaoyang Taoist temple. You will be given a lot of silver, a jade made simple moon spirit pendant, and can also put forward a wish to the Taoist temple. The Taoist temple will try its best to meet it.
This biography has been heard by Lu Yong since he was a child, and it is true. Ten years ago, a fisherman in Yulin village, not far away, caught a snow Koi, which was presented to Gaoyang Taoist temple and received a lot of rewards.
Lu Yong didn't want to fish. He rowed excitedly to the dock next to Gaoyang Taoist temple with a small fishing boat. He didn't even go home. At Gaoyang Taoist temple, it was identified as snow carp by immortal master.
Lu Yong presented the snow carp to the Taoist temple on the spot, and put forward his long cherished wish to the immortal teacher, that is, to have a son in his old age, so as to continue the incense of the Lu family.
The immortal Master said he understood. After seeing Lu Yong's body, he gave Lu Yong two elixirs. One pill is called "sending son pill", which is for Lu Yong. The immortal teacher promises that after taking this pill, he will have a precious son. A pill called "pregnancy protection pill" told Lu Yong to take it home and give it to his old wife at home. It has excellent health care effect.
Snow carp, a second-class low-level spirit beast, is not aggressive. It is born with the ability to resist the water. It swims very fast in the water and is difficult to catch.
White snow Koi has delicious meat. It can be eaten directly or used as medicine. Moreover, snow Koi contains a share of Koi essence. After eating and absorbing, it can greatly melt the Qi and identify the pulse, and help the cultivator to quickly promote from the fourth layer of Qi practice to the fifth layer of Qi practice.
It is precisely because of such mysterious characteristics that snow Koi are extremely rare and can often sell at sky high prices during market visits. Gaoyang Taoist temple will make a promise and give a lot of rewards to those who offer snow Koi.
Immortal master didn't break his promise. After the couple took pills, they soon became pregnant with Lu Pingxing. After this, Lu Yong believed in Gaoyang Taoist temple more and more, and he would go to sacrifice every new year and festival.
"Dad, let's go in!" Lu Pingxing said to his father after playing with the jade pendant, which also interrupted Lu's memory.
They followed the crowd into the Fushan hall, which is the canteen of Gaoyang Taoist temple. The whole Taoist diet is supplied by the Fushan hall. Moreover, the blessing food hall also provides vegetarian meals free of charge for pilgrims who come to the temple to pray for blessings, one meal at noon and one meal in the afternoon.
The Fushan hall is made of green bricks and red tiles. It is spacious, bright and simple. It is not as magnificent as other palaces of the Taoist temple. The inner hall of the blessing dining hall is huge, filled with tables and chairs. The long tables and chairs are neat, and can accommodate thousands of people to eat at the same time.
At this time, nearly half of the tables and chairs in the hall were filled with pilgrims, which was very lively. The old man Lu took Lu Pingxing to the front hall and lined up to receive vegetarian food. The front hall is the kitchen, which is separated from the inner hall by a wooden wall. Dozens of windows are opened on the wooden wall. Pilgrims can get a delicious vegetarian meal from the window.
Today's vegetarian meal is very rich. There is a bowl of white porridge, two yellow steamed buns and a dish of pickles. The old man Lu took Lu Pingxing with him and soon received the vegetarian meal. Carrying a wooden tray, they found an empty seat and sat down to enjoy the exquisite vegetarian meal.
The white porridge is boiled from millet into a thick shape. The Yellow steamed bun is soft and steamed. With hot and sour pickles, the pilgrims around eat it with relish. On weekdays, the old man of Lu can't afford this kind of refined grain. He eats rough noodles, Wowo and wild vegetables. He can only be extravagant on New Year's festivals.
