Chapter 227: Persistence that belongs to a dog
Over the next few days, the weather became colder and colder, and the temple gradually became quieter.
Sometimes, I don't see a pilgrim going up the mountain for half a day, but Qingzhu is also happy to relax.
On this day, there was really nothing to do, so Qingzhu went to the kitchen to count the usual daily necessities, such as oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.
He found that there were some daily necessities that needed to be purchased.
"I want to go down the mountain to buy some things, you have to be honest and take care of the house in the Taoist temple, you know?" Qingzhu said to the small animals in the yard before leaving.
"Giggles, what are you going to buy?" asked the hen, flapping her wings.
"Some condiments, by the way, and daily necessities like toothbrushes and toothpaste...... Qingzhu replied.
"Tsk, humans are really troublesome, Mumu never needs these ......," Mumu said with some disdain.
"Okay, okay, you guys stay in the Taoist temple honestly, especially the ugly monkey and Mu Mu, you two troublemakers, be honest, supervise each other, do you know, I'll be back soon......"
In the end, he instructed again, and Qingzhu left with confidence.
……
Today's weather is not bad, the sky is clear, and the wind that is not too cold is quite comfortable on the face.
Qingzhu stretched his waist, he didn't plan to use the space door to teleport directly down the mountain, he was going to take a walk on the mountain and exercise.
At this time, Qingzhu's body can already be described as light as a swallow, and it is faster than when he went down the mountain before, I don't know how many times.
After descending the mountain, I walked all the way to the village market, and when I passed a house, there was a middle-aged woman who was slightly chubby and looked very kind, and she was picking vegetables.
This woman Qingzhu knows, although she is never reluctant to donate incense money when she goes up the mountain to burn incense, but every time she will bring some green vegetables and radishes to Qingzhu up the mountain, Qingzhu is naturally very grateful.
"Qingzhu, you have come down the mountain, do you want to sit at home?" The aunt looked up and saw Qingzhu, so she greeted and asked.
"Hello layman, thank you for the vegetables, Poor Dao wants to go to the market to buy some daily necessities, so don't bother first......" Qingzhu smiled and thanked.
"Qingzhu, wait a minute, Auntie has some things here that were supposed to be brought to you on the mountain, but the weather has been cold recently, and my leg always hurts, since I met you, you can bring it yourself!"
This aunt is very good, always with a smiling smile, very kind, to everyone.
As she spoke, the aunt ran into the house, took out a bag of radishes from it and handed it to Qingzhu, at least five or six catties.
"This is our home-grown purple heart radish, crisp and sweet, better than fruit, green bamboo, you must taste it...... aunt said.
"Immeasurable Tianzun, you really need vegetables in the poor kitchen, thank you......" Qingzhu didn't shirk, this is someone else's kindness.
"Don't get in the way, don't get in the way, what's polite to your aunt, when my millet had a high fever, or you carried my millet to the hospital for more than an hour on the mountain road, you were only a teenager at that time, and my aunt didn't know how to thank you......"
Millet is the youngest son of this aunt, and once she had a high fever when she was a child, the aunt went to the mountain to ask the old Taoist to help her.
At that time, the old Taoist was still there, but he was an amateur doctor after all.
The old Taoist chief is not sure that he uses herbs to reduce fever, and the fever reduction speed is also slow, and it is best to go to the hospital for fever injections.
So, green
Zhu Er didn't say a word, and went to the hospital with millet on his back.
Frankly speaking, if it weren't for Qingzhu's help, Xiaomi would have been really dangerous that time.
This incident was already seven or eight years ago, and if it weren't for the aunt mentioning it now, Qingzhu would have forgotten it a long time ago.
It seems that although Qingzhu has long forgotten about this matter, the aunt's family has not forgotten it, and until now, the aunt is very grateful.
My aunt's family is not very wealthy, and every time she goes up the mountain, she has little ability to donate money, but as long as she usually has some surplus, she will send a little vegetables and fruits to the mountain.
The rural women were simple and very busy, and after Qingzhu thanked her, she didn't bother much and left directly.
After finding a place where no one was around, and after putting the purple heart radish into the gem space, Qingzhu continued to walk forward.
Walking by the stream, there is the village road.
There is already a newly built cement road on the village road, and it seems that the old village chief Li Youfu has really helped the village in the past two years, and the entire backing village has looked much cleaner and tidier than last year.
Qingzhu hummed a song while walking, and walking slowly is also a kind of exercise, but also a kind of practice.
"Host, this system is really an accident, before this system was bound to you, I didn't expect that you would actually do good deeds when you were a child?!!" The system suddenly said out.
Qingzhu was stunned for a moment, and then complained, "I'll go, system, what do you mean, my character, is it so worrying in your opinion?!!"
"Ahem, please keep up the host's efforts, come on, yes!!" The system finished speaking and then disappeared.
Qingzhu didn't know what was going on with the sudden jump out of the system, so he smiled and continued walking.
Still humming songs all the way, walking all the way, it didn't take long for Qingzhu to come to the opposite side of a grocery store.
This is the only way to enter the city, the road is relatively wide, there are cars coming and going, and there are more stalls and vendors on the streets.
At this time, Qingzhu was next to a bus stop and saw a puppy squatting next to the platform.
Qingzhu couldn't tell what breed the dog was, with big ears, short legs, and not a big one, but his eyes were very serious and determined, and he didn't roar or bark.
This serious expression, although a little funny, is also very cute.
The dog's body was dirty, and his hair was sticky to a ball, and he couldn't tell what color it was, but the eyes were still there.
This dog's eyes are very unique, looking ahead, pedestrians passing by, traffic passing by, the puppy ignores it, as if it is waiting for something, very persistent.
Qingzhu didn't care, just treated it as a stray dog, as long as it didn't bite.
After crossing the street, I came to the grocery store, which was small and well-equipped, selling everything and at an affordable price.
"Yo, Xiaodao Chief, are you here to buy something?" the fat boss greeted.
"Yes, good boss, buy some daily necessities ......," Qingzhu said with a smile.
Subsequently, Qingzhu went to the shelves to choose some commonly used things and came to the fat boss to check out.
After scanning the code, the fat boss smiled and said, "22 yuan, is it cash or WeChat?"
Qingzhu paid, picked up a bag of daily necessities, and prepared to leave the shop.
Before leaving, Qingzhu subconsciously asked with some curiosity, "Boss, that puppy on the side of the road seems to be weird, has it been there all along?!!
The fat boss was stunned, looked out the window, and then sighed, and said, "Oh, Dao Chief, you said that little dog......"
"Yes, what's wrong, is there any other story......" Qingzhu felt that the fat boss had something to say, so he asked attentively.
"That puppy, it's interesting, it's been there for a long time, think about it, it's been about a year, that puppy is very well-behaved, and he wags his tail when he sees acquaintances...... Hehe, I once wanted to take it to the store for adoption, but the dog refused to leave the bus station, as if waiting for someone, very persistent, I just took something to eat for it from time to time......"
The fat boss complained casually, then took out a loaf of bread, handed it to Qingzhu and said, "Dao Chief, if it's convenient, can you help me feed the puppy, I can't leave people in this store......"
"Okay, this is naturally no problem!!" Qingzhu didn't hesitate, took a piece of bread, anyway, he would pass by there when he went back, just make it by the way.
"Thank you, thank you, ......," the fat boss smiled innocently.
After Qingzhu came out with the bag, he walked all the way to the station and looked down at the puppy.
Perhaps, the puppy was tired and did not squat, but lay on the stone steps, but his eyes were still looking ahead, without the slightest slack.
Qingzhu was worried that the puppy would be nervous, so he walked very slowly.
Fortunately, the little dog was not afraid of strangers, and when he sensed that someone was approaching him, he just turned his head to look, and did not bark, and continued to look at the crowded platform.
This puppy is very well-behaved, just like the fat boss said, he is not afraid of strangers, and he will not bark when he sees anyone wagging his tail.
"Come on, come on, Poor Dao brought you some food, it was the order of the fat boss of the grocery store, are you hungry?"
As he spoke, Qingzhu tore open the wrapping paper of the bread, broke the bread in half, and delivered it to the puppy's mouth.
The puppy sniffed it first, knew that it was edible food, and did not hesitate, and ate the bread in three or two bites.
After eating, the puppy wagged its tail at Qingzhu, stuck out its tongue, and his eyes glowed with gratitude.
Qingzhu smiled, feeling that this puppy was really human, so he handed the rest of the bread to the puppy.
The puppy also did not refuse to come, and quickly ate all the bread, and then licked Qingzhu's palm.
"Have you eaten enough, is it enough?!" Qingzhu asked casually.
Qingzhu recalled that those animals in his house were all big stomachs, and he could drink a pot of pumpkin porridge for a meal, but this puppy was very reserved.
After eating the bread, the puppy wagked its tail at Qingzhu, as if to say thank you.
Qingzhu smiled and touched the puppy's head, took out a piece of steamed pumpkin from the gem space and handed it to the puppy, this pumpkin was eaten by Qingzhu when he was hungry when he took it down the mountain.
The puppy still did not refuse and began to eat the pumpkin, but as soon as he tasted the delicious pumpkin, the puppy's eyes lit up again.
After eating Qingzhu's pumpkin, the puppy was still unsatisfied, Qingzhu shook his head with a wry smile, spread his hands, and said that there was nothing to eat.
The puppy wagged his tail again, but did not mean to stand up, but continued to stare ahead, licking his dirty paws from time to time.
"Puppy, Poor Dao asks you, are you waiting for someone here?!!" Qingzhu couldn't help but ask curiously.
