Chapter 30: Rumors
At that time, it was the day of the Gentleman's Examination and Archery Examination.
That night, Huangsha Road suddenly moved, and the Queen's Mausoleum collapsed.
That night, Xue Qing returned from injury again.
Guo Zi'an looked at the little girl who was getting closer and closer on the ox cart.
Then these orphans who were bound in chains appeared at the gate of the city, causing an uproar among the officials and the people, and everyone did not know whether it was a disaster or a disaster.
Then it was the little girl who stood up and said that the queen had apparitions and let them out.
Then the Huangsha Road and the collapse of the Queen's Mausoleum became an auspicious event, and since then the evil spirits have been removed, and the coffins of the Empress and Emperor Baozhang have returned to the Imperial Tomb.
Then one night there was suddenly an extra Huangsha Road orphan in Xue Qing's house, and then disappeared again, but he knew that the young man must be following Xue Qing......
He was a little distracted, and suddenly felt that everything around him was quiet, and there was a gaze to look at him, Guo Zi'an's body tensed and stared at him, and the little girl on the ox cart was tilting her head to look at javascript: he.
Guo Zi'an didn't speak, looking at her.
The eyes of the people around were focused on the little girl on the ox cart, and as the girl stopped, excited, puzzled, and then quiet, and the eyes fell on Guo Zi'an with the girl.
"Hi. The girl raised her hand and waved it, and smiled at Guo Zi'an, "Stranger, we meet again, welcome back." ”
Stranger.... As a local, it is not difficult to tell whether a foreigner is a local.
Especially these soldiers, they must be outsiders.
But meet again....
"Hey, you know her. The companions around him couldn't help but ask curiously.
Although I don't know what her name is, but knowing is also acquaintance, and the people who were watching at the city gate at that time should know her, but how could she know herself? At that time, she came to Huangsha Road, her identity was Xue Qing's scholar, there was no beautiful exam, and she rarely appeared in front of people, what did this girl mean? Guo Zi'an looked at her and didn't speak.
The girl didn't speak again, grinned, the reins in her hand shook slightly, and the old ox who was slowly chewing the grass continued to move forward.
The quiet sides were noisy again, following excitedly, and many people were still surrounding Guo Zi'an, looking very excited, Guo Zi'an was a little hairy, and the companions around him couldn't help but surround Guo Zi'an, guarding the surroundings.
"What are you looking at?" everyone glared.
"I even know the goddess!"
"Meet the goddess!"
"Little brother makes us blessed..."
There was a noise all around, and some people stepped forward to stretch out their hands and jump, but fortunately, everyone reacted quickly and waved him away..... What the hell is this.
"I knew her, but it was just a glimpse of the excitement at the city gates. Guo Zi'an looked at the excited people around him and reminded him of that time.
Not long had passed, and the people understood what the bustle in front of the city gate meant.
"If you know her, there are more people who know her...."Guo Zi'an frowned and continued, "But how does she know me?"
Yes, the companions were also curious, but the people around them were amazed.
"Goddess, of course everyone knows her. ”
"That's the goddess. ”
The uproar and excitement even flocked to the road, and the ox cart girls chased after them, like a tide.
Guo Zi'an and his companions were stunned.
......
.......
"What kind of goddess is this?"
"Why is she a goddess?"
Because many people watched and followed the goddess, there were many vacant places in the tea shed, Guo Zi'an and others sat inside, and asked while calling for a large piece of braised pork in the fragrant soup and tea oil cake.
"You are really a foreigner, and you don't even know the goddess Xiaorong. ”
"The goddess Xiaorong was hand-picked by the Queen's Holy Spirit. ”
Immediately there was a gossiping answer in the tea shed.
Guo Zi'an took a sip of tea soup, she did say that at the city gate, this sentence broke the predicament at that time, the gentleman tried to be a happy event, the queen was happy, the emperor's filial piety was commendable, the prosperous world was peaceful, and the evil spirit was lifted, everyone was happy...... He pricked up his ears and listened to the gossip that continued in the tea shed.
“.... These Wong Sha Dao orphans were adopted by the Salesian Bureau...."
“.... At first, I didn't find anything special about Xiao Rong..."
“... I remember that she always appeared at the Wong Sha Road ruins..."
“... Yes, yes, she doesn't know what's going on, so she said she came here for some reason..."
“... The first time he showed his divine power was when the mute grandson of Grandma Zhang's family in the east of the city got lost, right? After looking for three days, I didn't find it, and it was Xiao Rong who told the Salesian Bureau's ancient mother-in-law that the mute boy was in a dry well in the west of the city..."
“... Yes, yes, I also remember, it's really a god, the old man in that dry well city doesn't know, she knows at such a young age... At first, she didn't say anything when she asked, but in the end she was threatened that she had done something bad and was in a hurry, crying and saying that she was praying to the queen, and then the queen told her in a dream..."
What, Guo Zi'an took a bite of the oil cake and chewed it, do you believe this kind of thing?
"At first, people didn't believe it. The shopkeeper put the cut braised pork on the table, wiped his hand on the towel on his shoulder, and said, "Xiaorong didn't believe it himself, so he didn't dare to say it, and it took three days to say it..."
"The boss finished adding tea soup. The guest next to him said loudly, and also looked at Guo Zi'an and these people, "Then there was another incident, someone was sick, and he was going to die on the street, and he couldn't help when he called the doctor, and it was that Xiaorong who ran out again, and poked the patient's nose twice while he was unprepared, and the nosebleed for a long time, and a group of people on the street were in an uproar to arrest Xiao Rong, and as a result, the person who was going to die sat up with a nosebleed..."
There was a sudden commotion in the tea shed.
"Yes, that's right. ”
"I was there, and I was so scared that I jumped. ”
Listening to the surrounding sounds, Guo Zi'an and his companions couldn't help but look surprised.
"And this time she said it was the queen who taught her?" asked one of the soldiers.
An old man sitting next to him waved his hand and said, "No, no, she ran away, no matter who asked, she only said that she accidentally bumped into it, and she didn't know anything." ”
Ho... Guo Zi'an raised his head and drank a big sip of tea soup, how obvious is this..... But the soldiers around him babbled one after another.
"So?"
"Really?"
"And then?"
They think this kind of thing is very magical, they want to know more, and urge everyone to tell it, in short, several things happened later, Xiaorong who lost things can be found, and she will be cured of some strange diseases, and even someone in the government secretly asked her for clues to solve the case, and she really found the murderer....
But Xiao Rong never said that it was the queen mother who gave her a dream, and anyone who asked shook her head and didn't answer, so everyone didn't ask, but thought that it was the queen mother who asked her to guide her.
"You think, the queen's mausoleum has not collapsed for so many years, but it collapsed that night and appeared. ”
"No one let anyone see it, so Xiao Rong saw it. ”
"Xiao Rong was born at the site of Huangsha Road.... That's what the queen has grown up watching with her own eyes."
"O goddess..."
The tea shed became more and more lively, the people who spoke were excited, and the people who listened were also excited, and some people couldn't help but muttered about the blessing of the goddess.
"That's pretty impressive. ”
"It's magical. ”
Is it magical? Guo Zi'an frowned and looked at his companions around him, why did they all believe it.
"So young, only ten years old. A companion said, "If it weren't for the guidance of the Holy Spirit, how could she be so much?"
There are many people who are young, and there is one guy who is even more inhuman..... Guo Zi'an looked at his companions, well, maybe it was because of this that he didn't feel magical or shaken, because he had seen and touched ...... Youkai, the discussion in the tea shed in my ears continues.
“.... So Big Yellow Tooth said that the queen's coffin had moved away, but her old man still remembered our Huangsha Road..."
“.... Yes, yes, the queen has appeared..."
“.... With the blessing of the queen through the goddess, our Huangsha Road is a blessed land..."
Guo Zi'an swallowed the chewed cake and raised his head to drink the tea soup.
......
......
In the late autumn and early winter at night, Huangsha Dao City fell into silence.
There is no noisy night market until dawn, and the lights on the streets are sporadically swaying in the cold wind, and the light is like beans in the night.
A figure stopped in front of the gate of a courtyard, raised his head to look at the door plaque shining like a bean lamp, the word Salesian Bureau was barely visible, he crossed the door, and disappeared into the alley on the side.
Most of the Salesian Bureau was dark, except for one room with lights on.
A girl hummed a little song and put the wooden basin away, put the kettle aside, sat down and rolled up the sleeves of her trouser legs, exposed her little arms and legs, lifted her feet into the wooden basin, and let out a comfortable sigh.
"It's a good day to have hot water. ”
The sound stopped, and the man looked up at the door.
"This guest outside the door, do you want to come and burn your feet too? ”
As the words fell, the closed door was pushed open, and before he could see the figure, he was already in front of him..... The little girl's feet were still in the tub, and the person was picked up by the neck....
"Ah, ah, brother, it turned out to be you. She made a hoarse voice, grabbed Guo Zi'an's arm, and looked happy and pleading, "Don't pinch me." ”
Guo Zi'an looked at the girl in flower clothes and pants who was as thin as a little chicken, and said, "How do you know me?"
Xiao Rong's expression was not frightened, his little eyes blinked, and he said, "Because I am a goddess." ”
.....
.....
A year ago, there was a girl lying on the big bluestone on her side and looked at him with such a look.
"Little boy, I am the god of the Weishui River..."
The corners of Guo Zi'an's mouth grinned..... With a shake of his hand, the phantom dispersed, and the little girl in his hand swayed with the sound of water under her feet.
"You're far from her. He said lightly, his big hand tightened, "Say! Who told you!"
Xiao Rongren was hanged, she opened her mouth wide and stuck out her tongue ah ah retching,.
"Brother, I said, no one, I can see it myself... Brother, you look at me differently than others..."
