Chapter 2 Fighting the autumn wind with a child
I saw a small-footed woman in a pink gown running out of breath, and the bun tied at the back of her head shook with the bumpy body, and it was about to shake away. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
There was also a five-year-old horse-faced man next to him who was wiping his sweat with his sleeves, panting and urging: "Granny Wang, hurry up!" ”
Zhou Bi and Zhu Chongba both knew that this Granny Wang was a famous midwife in the county, but the big man was not familiar with it, so he could only look at the servant of whose family he looked like through the linen short coat on his body. Looking at the anxious appearance of the two, it is estimated that which family is going to have a child.
Zhu Chongba hurriedly led the cow to the side of the road and made way of the way.
Zhou's nose, who was particularly heavy in gossip, shook in three steps, shook in two steps, and jumped to the middle to block the way, "Granny Wang, where are you going?" ”
"Oops, hey, let me go, Mrs. Liu Dashanren is going to give birth, I'm in a hurry to deliver the baby~ah~" While speaking, Granny Wang was dragged out more than ten meters away by the big man, and only the sound was lingering.
"Liu Dashanren's wife is going to have a baby?" Looking at the back of the two leaving, Zhou touched his nose and muttered to himself. The reputation of this Liu Dashan person can be described as thunderous in Su County, but it is a pity that Zhou Nose recognizes the other party, and the other party does not recognize Zhou Nose.
It is said that this Liu Dashan's parents died early, and he was the only son in the family. After several years of no news, the neighbors and clansmen thought he was dead outside. Who knew that a few years later, this person actually returned with a large amount of money and built a new house to marry a wife, which made people red-eyed. However, this person also has a heart, and when his family is rich, he does not forget his neighbors, not only to fund the construction of bridges and pave roads, but also to give generously when he encounters poor people. Everyone saw that he was kind and charitable, so they simply didn't call him ranked, and they all respected him as a good person.
Zhou Nose sighed with emotion, why didn't he meet Liu Dashan's generosity. Suddenly, his eyes lit up: Hehe, if the mountain doesn't come, I'll go to the mountain! Blessed by the immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, the opportunity to fight the autumn wind has come!
With his heart moving, Zhou's nose shook the tattered Taoist robe on his body, straightened out the knotted beard, combed the messy bun, wiped two handfuls on his face, and stood in front of Zhu Chongba with a dignified demeanor, and asked cautiously: "Little Ba, how do you think of me?" ”
"How's that?" Zhu Chongba hurried back to hand over the cattle without raising his head.
This kid also has no eyesight, is it because I haven't done well enough? Zhou Nose looked around while slandering his abdomen, saw a dead tree on the side of the road, pulled a branch to use as a dust, put one hand on his chest, pinched his flower fingers with the other, and then asked: "Little Ba, take a good look, what is the difference between me and me?" ”
"Different?" Zhu Chongba glanced at it casually, saw the withered branch in Zhou Bi's hand, and said with a smile: "Daochang Zhou, do you want to help me drive the cattle?" You are not in the right position, you can't put your hands on your chest, you have to raise them a little higher......"
Zhou's nose was really angry, and his mouth trembled, "Don't you think that Dao Chang I am extraordinary, magnificent, kind-eyed, calm, erudite, and heroic......"
Zhu Chongba looked up at the sky and yawned lazily, "Daochang Zhou, the hour is not early, tomorrow the boy will come to listen to your teachings." ”
The saddest thing about the cow playing the piano is that Zhou Nose drove away Zhu Chongba like a mosquito. As soon as I took two steps, I suddenly woke up to the fact that I hadn't done the right thing to fight the autumn wind, and I was patronizing to prove my style. But even a childish child can't conquer, how to conquer that Liu Dashan? He stared at Zhu Chongba's back as he gradually moved away, rolled his eyes, stepped forward quickly, and called loudly: "Xiaoba, do you want to eat baked sweet potatoes?" ”
Zhu Chongba's body suddenly froze, turned his head and stared wide, and Harazi flew around with the frequency of nodding, "Think!" Where? ”
"Hehe, as long as you cooperate with me well, don't talk about roasted sweet potatoes, roast chicken!" Zhou Nose smiled kindly and amiably, and whispered a few words in Zhu Chongba's ear.
"Really?" Zhu Chongba was half-convinced, and his two thin eyebrows were twisted into a figure.
Zhou Bi swore and promised, "Don't rub it, if you rub it again, the roast chicken will fly." ”
Zhu Chongba told himself not to believe Zhou's nonsense, but the temptation of roasted sweet potatoes and roast chicken was too strong, he sniffed and threw down a sentence "Wait!" He picked up the cow and ran quickly to Landlord Liu's house.
Half an hour later, two sneaky figures appeared near Liu Dashanren's house, the tall one was the slightly trimmed Zhou Nose, and the short one was Zhu Chongba, who led the cow back to the cowshed.
In order to eat roasted sweet potatoes and roast chicken smoothly, Zhu Chongba deliberately stole a pair of straw sandals from his brother and put them on his feet, and his bird's nest-like messy hair was combed obediently and pulled into a cupola. At this moment, he looked curious and excited, looked around, and asked again uncertainly, "Daochang Zhou, is it really as you said, as long as we go in and say a few words, Liu Dashan will give us food?" Don't lie to me, I didn't even drink the rice cereal that my mother served for the sake of roasting sweet potatoes. ”
Zhou Nose swallowed his saliva and said indignantly: "Just you stinky boy and rice cereal to drink, cough, cough, what is rice cereal?" As long as you listen to me, I promise that there will be roasted sweet potatoes and roast chickens. He took a deep breath, revealing an unprecedented solemn expression, and admonished: "From this moment on, you can't call me Daoist Zhou, just call me Master." Remember your identity, you are my apprentice Xiaoba, as a teacher, you are a master from Qingchengguan, and this time I made a special trip to guide the Liu family...... Yes! Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable! ”
Zhu Chongba nodded vigorously, for the sake of the legendary roast chicken, the head can be broken and the blood can flow, although he can't understand Zhou's words, anyway, it's right.
After the pseudo-master and apprentice discussed properly, they circled around Liu's house, looking for an opportunity to enter.
Although Liu Dashan has a good reputation, he is just a flat-headed commoner, of course, he can't repair a high-walled compound, he can only build an ordinary house, but although the wall of this courtyard is not high, the area is not small. The two of them walked with weak legs, but they saw that the front door was closed, and the back door was also bolted, and there was not even a dog hole around. However, the movement in the wall can be heard clearly, only to hear the shouting and running sound inside, the chickens and dogs jumping, very lively.
"Let's go over the wall and go in." Zhu Chongba can't wait to see the roast chicken.
"No, we came here to guide the Liu family, not to steal. If you climb over the wall and get caught, let alone eat roast chicken, you will even have to take your life. Zhou Nose warned solemnly, and despised Zhu Chongba eight hundred times in his heart: An ignorant child is an ignorant child, too unskilled, how can he be a thief in the autumn wind.
"Ah, what do you say, my stomach growls." Zhu Chongba had a bitter face and muttered in a low voice: "You can't tease me, you can't get in the door, what are you eating?" ”
"Don't worry, let me think of a way again......" Zhou Bi looked at the darkening sky, and secretly complained: If you don't act, you will be hungry tonight. Regardless of his three-seven-twenty-one, find a way to act and see the opportunity to act after entering! He ordered his temporary apprentice Zhu Chongba to step forward and knock on the two dark red doors of Liu's house.
Liu Dashan was wandering back and forth in the courtyard, his two big hands were rubbed red by him, sometimes loosened and sometimes clenched, the sweat on his forehead flowed like a winding stream, and the muscles of his cheeks beat with the cry of his daughter-in-law. If it weren't for the rule that women give birth to men are not allowed to enter, he would have rushed into the delivery room to give birth to a child in place of his daughter-in-law.
He is over 30 years old, and he has no descendants, which is a great unfilial piety. Therefore he forsaken evil and promoted good, relieved the people, and built bridges and paved roads...... Finally, the heavens have mercy, and the daughter-in-law is pregnant! The Liu family has a queen! At this moment, he looks like a virtuous husband and a loving father, who would have thought that this famous Liu Dashan in Su County was once a thief in the green forest who killed people without blinking?
"God, I must bless my daughter-in-law and children with safety!" The servants only saw Liu Dashan's hesitant expression, and no one knew that he prayed silently in his heart: God, although I, Liu, did murder and robbery back then, but I was forced by this world, and now I have changed my ways, please remember that I have done a lot of good deeds over the years, and let my child be born smoothly.
In anxious waiting, Liu Dashan couldn't help but think of his brother-in-law Guo Zixing, who fell into the grass together in the past. I heard that Guo Zixing is still doing businessless business in secret, and he is getting bigger and bigger, killing the rich and helping the poor, while spreading his wealth and making friends with the world's heroes, he has become a famous black and white scoop. I also heard that Guo Zixing married two beautiful ladies and had several children......
Thinking of this, Liu Dashan couldn't help but glance at the delivery room, when he and Guo Zixing were separated, they had verbally agreed that if they had a child, they would have a baby. Now he finally has a queen, if he gives birth to a boy, he will marry Brother Guo's daughter, and if he gives birth to a girl, he will be married to Brother Guo's son. But it's better to have a boy, the girl is raised by someone after all.
Just when Liu Dashan was thinking wildly, the servant came to report, "Master, there are two Taoist priests at the door, one old and one young, who ask to see him, claiming to be the master of Qingcheng Temple, and he came here for the guidance of our little son." ”
"Go, go, go, what is the master, the child hasn't come out yet." Liu Dashan waved his hand impatiently, suddenly stunned, raised his voice and asked, "What did the person say was 'small, male, and son'?" ”
"Yes." The servant nodded inexplicably.
"Huh? Quick, bring those two masters in! Rushing to the "little boy" sentence, Liu Dashan is in the mood to listen to the so-called maze.
Zhou Nose walked into Liu's house with a righteous face, and the slightly upturned corners of his mouth revealed the pride in his heart, as long as the other party was willing to open a slit, he could insert a needle, as long as the other party was willing to give him a chance to speak, he could blow the Milky Way for nine days! Today's autumn breeze is settled!
Liu Dashan blinked, what about the so-called virtuous people, how do they look like two beggars?
Zhou Bi saw Liu Dashan in a silk shirt as soon as he entered the door, and he also saw the doubts in Liu Dashan's eyes, and immediately took the opportunity to stand still, only showing an unfathomable smile and carefully looking at the other party, "The face of the poor Taoist benefactor, the heavenly court is full, and the earth pavilion is round, he is a blessed person, so your family will have a very noble son." Tell you the truth, the future of the little boy is limitless......"
Everyone loves to listen to good words, Liu Dashan stepped forward quickly, and did not dislike the strange smell emanating from the two masters of the Dao, and grabbed Zhou's hand tightly, very excited, "Dao Chief, are you sure that my child is a boy?" Hehe, but this kid is so naughty, and now he is still lying in his mother's belly and refuses to come out......"
Zhou Nose was stunned, more than an hour has passed since he met Granny Wang, and the child has not come out yet, he can really toss, but the more he can toss, the greater the chance of having a boy.
He steadied himself, and pointed upwards lightly, "Master Liu, please look at this heavenly wonder." Today's sunset is different from the past, with a ball of fire and blood in the middle, and the surrounding golden light is extremely dazzling, which is a good omen for the birth of your child. Poor Dao has already calculated, the little boy is the reincarnation of the greedy wolf star god, and he will definitely be powerful, resourceful, and rich in his life in the future. There is only one point, the murderous spirit of the greedy wolf star god is too heavy, and if you kill too much, it will cause trouble, so the poor road specially came to suppress the anger of the little son, so as to ensure that the prince turns evil into good fortune and becomes auspicious in death......"
Liu Dashan was in a trance when he heard this, and couldn't help but look at the sky and smirk, "My child actually has such a great creation?" The reincarnation of the Greedy Wolf Star God? No wonder I think it's hotter than ever, it's a miracle. ”
Zhu Chongba looked at the nose of Zhou who had a lotus flower, and couldn't help but look up at the sunset, and secretly wondered: The sun sets the same every day, why don't I see any good signs and the reincarnation of the greedy wolf star god?
