Chapter 1: The Boy and the Fat Man
Jinling is located in the eastern region of China, in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, near the river and the sea.
Since ancient times, Jinling has the saying that "the wealth of the world comes from the southeast, and Jinling is its meeting", with a history of more than 6,000 years of civilization, nearly 2,600 years of city history and nearly 500 years of history of building the capital, it is one of the four ancient capitals of China, and is known as "the ancient capital of six dynasties" and "the capital of ten dynasties", and is an important birthplace of Chinese civilization.
Jinling is mountainous, surrounded by mountains, there are Purple Mountain, Niushou Mountain, Shogunate Mountain, Qixia Mountain, Tangshan, Qinglong Mountain, Huanglong Mountain, Zutang Mountain, Yuntai Mountain, Laoshan, Lingyan Mountain, Maoshan Mountain, etc., and there are Fugui Mountain, Jiuhua Mountain, Arctic Pavilion Mountain, Qingliang Mountain, Lion Mountain, Jilong Mountain, etc. are gathered and scattered in the city, forming the geomorphological characteristics of many mountains and many rivers and many hills.
And among these famous mountains, there is a very inconspicuous hill that covers an area of only a few square kilometers, named Fang Mountain, Fang Mountain is a flat top mountain that is not too high, looking at it from afar, it is like a square seal, it is called Yin Mountain in ancient times, although Fang Mountain is not high, but because it is located on the plain, it still does not lose its majestic and upright.
In the dense jungle depths of Fangshan, there is a very inconspicuous Taoist temple, if it were not for the plaque at the main gate with the three words "Shangqing Palace" written with the traces of axe and chisel fire, I am afraid that the ancestors of Sanqing came in person, and they could not see that this was the place where mortals supplied him with incense.
Although as the saying goes, "the mountain is not high, there are immortals are famous", although there is a Taoist temple on the mountain, but there is no immortal to follow, in that ten years of catastrophe, the Taoist temple was burned down once, and then collapsed once because of disrepair, and it became more and more dilapidated.
"Alas, alas, why doesn't it ring?"
A ten-year-old man wearing a Taoist robe is sitting on the steps in front of the Taoist temple at the moment, patting a radio on his left palm with his right hand, but except for the "hissing" electric current sound, the radio has no second sound.
"Immeasurable Tianzun, I only replaced the battery yesterday, won't I take it to the city to repair it again?"
The young Taoist priest muttered angrily, raised his hand and wanted to throw the radio out, but after hesitating for a while, he still put the radio away, after all, this thing has been with him for ten years, and more than half of those lonely times are spent on it.
"Quack, even you are bullying me?"
Listening to the continuous sound of cicadas from the big tree above his body, the young man frowned, suddenly stretched his figure, kicked his feet, and stepped on the waist-thick trunk three times in a row, and when his body was about to fall, he slapped on the branch again, and his right arm stretched out like a long ape, and with a copy of his palm, he had already grasped the knowledge that was too late to fly away in the palm of his hand.
"Hehe, do you still scream?" After falling to the ground, the young man spread out his palm, looked at the one in his palm, and couldn't help but smile on his face, the unpleasantness that had just been caused by the broken radio had also disappeared.
"Forget it, let you go......"
After the boy and the cicada talked to themselves, he raised his palm and let Nazhi fly out, and the sunlight sprinkled on his face through the dense foliage, revealing a face with unusually handsome sword eyebrows and starry eyes.
"Other people's Taoist temples are called Shangqing Palace, and you are also called Shangqing Palace, but this palace is not the other palace, and you can't even eat......"
As soon as the young man turned around, he saw the plaque of the Taoist temple, and his face couldn't help showing a wry smile, the last grain of rice left in the temple was also boiled by him the day before yesterday, that is, the thin porridge that could be used as a mirror, and it was empty after three days, and the young man was already out of food today.
Compared with the Shangqing Palace of those famous mountains and rivers, the Shangqing Palace on Fangshan Mountain is undoubtedly a place where the head of a sheep sells dog meat, and the broken house dares to be called the Shangqing Palace, and there is no incense for more than ten years, if it were not for digging up some herbs, poisonous scorpions and other things that can be used in medicine and exchanging some food for the farmers under the mountain, the young man is afraid that he would have starved to death.
"Immeasurable Tianzun, there are still three days left in the time limit set by the master to go down the mountain, is it difficult to starve to death like this?"
The young man's eyes turned around, looking at the bursts of cooking smoke in the distance below the mountain, and he couldn't help swallowing his saliva, but he hesitated for a while, and the young man sat down on the stone steps in front of the Taoist temple again.
"Why doesn't that stupid rabbit appear again?"
A picture appeared in the young man's mind, the year before last, I don't know if it was the reason for the harvest of crops under the mountain, he drove a fat and big rabbit to the mountain, and crashed to death in front of the Taoist temple in a panic, which also gave the young man a good meal.
But this situation of waiting for the rabbit has only happened once in three years, and every day for three years, the boy will take a look under the big tree, but every time he is disappointed, the stupid rabbit never appears a second time.
"Brother Yi, you're not here, I'm here......"
Just as the young Taoist priest was hungry and ready to go up the mountain to catch some poisonous scorpions, a shout suddenly came from the path below the mountain, and with the shout, a figure had already appeared on the irregular stone steps.
This body is a little fat, and the horizontal development of the body makes the mountain path appear more and more narrow, but obesity does not mean clumsy, the person's body is quite athletic, and he climbed seventy or eighty meters high steps in one breath, and after coming up, he was slightly panting.
"Hey, fat man, why are you here now?Where have you died in the past year, I miss you to death......" After seeing the visitor, the young Taoist priest showed a trace of joy on his face, and there was no scruple of being a monk in his words.
"Come less, I see you're dying of hunger, you want me to bring something to eat......"
The fat man came closer to see clearly, the original age was not very big, at best about twenty years old, a pair of small eyes squinted are very godly, giving people a very shrewd feeling, but after he laughed, the shrewdness became innocent, and he couldn't see it anymore.
"Oh, my dad set a rabbit ......" The fat man raised his left hand and said, "Don't say that buddy is unjust, I just went home yesterday, and I sent you a rabbit early this morning, hey, what did I say you are doing?"
As soon as the fat man raised his left hand, he found that the rabbit he was carrying had changed hands at once, and the boy who had snatched the rabbit did not wait for him to finish his words, turned around and ran towards the Taoist temple, and in an instant, there was no one in front of the fat man.
"How hungry is this kid?"
The fat man shook his head with pity, he knew that this little Taoist priest was hindered by the teacher's discipline, and his scope of activities was limited to a few square kilometers within a radius of this mountain, and the daily necessities he needed were exchanged with the people in the village under the mountain, and this food shortage was a frequent thing.
"Hey, I said you're moving a little faster, right?"
When the fat man walked into the Taoist temple and came to the backyard, he found that the rabbit he brought had been stripped of his skin by the young man's disembowelment, and crossed with a large branch, and in the shallow pit on the ground, firewood had already burst into flames.
"Brother, I've been hungry for three days......"
Looking at the rabbit meat licked by the flames, the young Taoist priest couldn't help licking his lips, and said in a complaining voice: "Fatty, you kid is not authentic, this has been out for more than a year, brother, I am waiting for you to go up the mountain to deliver food every day......"
"Come less, you won't starve to death without me......"
For the young man's words, the fat man snorted, shook his head and said: "Fat man, I have also been a soldier, I can't be a farmer for a lifetime, right?
"Cut, who said that I am younger than you, you were born three days younger than me......" The young man said very seriously: "It's an hour younger, I'm also your brother, if you don't believe it, go back and ask your fat dad to ......"
Although the two of them are already ten ** years old, they are obviously very concerned about who is big and who is small, and the young Taoist priest said that he was anxious, and the fat man blurted out: "Come less, you don't even know where you were born......"
"Well, I'm ...... I didn't mean to, Brother Yi, I ...... Can't I call you brother?"
After saying this, the fat man knew that he had lost his words, so he hurriedly raised his hand and looked at the young man cautiously, the two grew up together in open crotch pants, so they naturally knew where each other's lives were.
"That's what you said, I didn't force you......" After hearing the fat man's words, the young man's face couldn't help but stiffen, although he laughed again, but the fat man who grew up with him in open crotch pants still saw the unnaturalness of the young man's demeanor.
In fact, the fat man was not wrong, this young Taoist priest really didn't know what month and day he was born.
Because when the boy was adopted by his master, he was still in swaddling clothes, and although his master lived a handful of years and was proficient in yin and yang five elements divination, he had never given birth to a child, and he didn't know how many months the boy was born at that time.
Because it was picked up outside the gate of the Taoist temple, and the Taoist temple was located in Fangshan, the old Taoist priest let the young man have the surname Fang, and the young man slept very sweetly and comfortably when he was picked up, so the old Taoist priest gave him a single name Yi, which was for Fang Yi.
Of course, the old Taoist priest refused to admit that he gave Fang Yi his name so casually, according to him, the surname Fang is to hope that the young man can be square, and Mingyi hopes that the young man can be extraordinary and outstanding when he grows up.
At that time, Fang Yi was at most two or three months old, so the old Taoist priest carried him to the bottom of the mountain, and asked the fat man, who was also born not long ago, to breastfeed Fang Yi, but the countryside was very poor at that time, and Fang Yi only ate milk for three months, and was carried back to the mountain by the old Taoist priest to feed the rice soup.
However, after having such a layer of origin, Fang Yi and the fat man have drunk a mother's milk, and they are unconsciously close, and they have a very good relationship since childhood.
