Happy New Year to all. One more on the shelf, 5,000 words.
The new year has begun, it is really time flies like electricity, it seems that a moment ago it was a famous doctor on the shelves, and another book was on the shelves, we have gone through more than a year together, and we are about to go through another year together, sighing.
**************************
The thunder was rolling and thundering, but compared to the overhead of Fang Cai, it was already far higher.
The house was already half-burned, and the rain was gradually extinguishing the fire.
The light of the fire flickered and dimmed, illuminating the figures crouched in the heavy rain in the courtyard.
Four.
The two children ran out of the kitchen at the same time as the fire started, they were panicked, and when they heard Cheng Jianniang shouting for the girl who ran over to squat down with their knees, they subconsciously followed.
The thunderstorm on this mountain comes and goes quickly, and when the thunder is quieter, Cheng Jianniang slowly wants to get up, but she really has no strength to get up after the heavy rain.
"Half celery." She weakly shouted, "It's okay." ”
When the girl heard this, she raised her head, looked at Cheng Jiaoniang, who was closest to the house, and rushed over with a roll, crying loudly.
She slid down the ladder and went straight over, but was stopped by the lady when she entered the courtyard.
Thinking about it now, what a dangerous and terrible situation it was, she squatted by the courtyard gate, and felt that her scalp was numb and her body was numb, and it seemed that something strange had penetrated her body, but she could think of Cheng Jianniang nearby.
"Lady, lady, you have nothing to do, right?" She cried.
"It's fine." Cheng Jianniang said, she didn't have the strength to pat the girl and hold her arm. Stand up.
The girl was even more tired and afraid of trembling, not so much holding Cheng Jianniang. It's better to say that the two are leaning on each other and haven't taken two steps yet. Just listen to the chaotic footsteps outside the mountain gate and the sound of banging on the door.
"We're here to put out the fire, is there anyone else? Are people okay? ”
A trembling female voice came from outside the door.
There was silence inside the door, only the sound of fire burning.
"Master, are they all burned?" The Taoist aunts wearing robes and hats, holding water basins, wooden buckets, and brooms, said in a trembling voice.
The viewer looked at the mountain gate, and then at the fire and smoke inside the gate.
Although people have had their lives, all things have lives, and if they are not saved in distress, they are unbearable.
"Bang the door." She said.
Several Dao Gu crowded around the door in unison.
"Listen to me." The viewer stood aside, "One, two, three." ”
Dao aunts are hi and delicate. Crash into the door together.
The door opened at this time, and several Dao Gu's exerted their voices turned into exclamations, and they stumbled into the door.
I don't know if it's because I'm in a happy mood or if these Dao girls look funny, the little boy who came to open the door couldn't help but grin.
That woman was struck to death by lightning! That woman was struck to death by lightning!
When they were desperate, the woman died first!
It's such a funny thing.
The more the child laughed, the louder he became, and he simply squatted on the ground with his stomach in his arms.
The Taoist aunts who were stacked on the ground in the rain looked at each other, and the Taoist temples were burned by thunder and fire, and they could still laugh? Scared crazy?
The girl wrapped Cheng Jianniang in a thin quilt, and immediately brought hot ginger soup, and both of them slowly drank a few sips and their faces improved a lot.
"Lady. Wait, wait a while and boil the hot water and soak it again. The girl said.
When I opened my mouth, my upper and lower teeth were still shivering, and I didn't know if I was scared or frozen.
There were footsteps outside the door, and the girl hurriedly turned to look. An elderly Taoist girl stopped under the porch.
"Good people." She said.
The girl was busy returning the gift.
"Lord Cheng Guan has ascended to heaven." Dao Gu said, "The fire has been extinguished, except. Cheng Guan Lord... And... There were no other casualties. ”
A man died in Aunt Dao's house in the middle of the night. I can't say anything about it.
"That, that. How is it good? The girl asked in a trembling voice.
Looking at the girl wrapped in the quilt stupid, this young girl was stunned, and the viewer sighed.
"In this case, it's better to let the Cheng family master decide." She reminded.
The girl suddenly said oh oh twice, and hurriedly turned around to look at Cheng Jianniang.
The lady is so tired that she hasn't said a word since she came back.
Is this okay?
Cheng Jianniang looked at this viewer.
"Dao Chief." She spoke.
The viewer outside the door was slightly surprised, she had naturally heard that this little Xuanmiaoguan lived in a silly girl from the Cheng family, and the silly girl could still speak, and her voice was not stupid.
She came back to her senses and hurriedly responded.
"I'm afraid I'll have to take a trip for you." Cheng Jianniang said.
The viewer was stunned.
"Okay, don't worry, lady, I'll call the people of the Cheng family for my mother, I saw the thunder fire yesterday, and it is reasonable to inform the people of the Cheng family." She said.
It means that she didn't enter the door and didn't know what the little mystical view of Lu Dao was, and naturally she didn't know that there was a man in Lu Dao who died inside, which saved the face and reputation of the Cheng family.
"Nope." Cheng Jianniang said, "What the viewer sees is what it is, and the viewer is benevolent and upright, and there is no need to hide it." ”
The viewer looked at Cheng Jianniang, and his surprise was hard to hide.
Idiot?
Fools?
"Dao Chief, Xiao Xuan Miaoguan, thunder and fire robbery for no reason, it is better to have a big Xuan Miaoguan to come to the town." Cheng Jianniang said.
Whether this lady is a fool or not is not a fool The Lord does not know the way, but the Lord knows that he is not a fool, and she immediately understands the meaning of this sentence.
The dream suddenly fell on his face, and excitement and disbelief appeared on the face of the viewer.
She felt like she was going to say something, but she was stunned for a moment, and finally leaned over to salute.
"Thank you for your attention." She said.
Last night there was thunder and rain on the mountain, the city was not so bad, the rainstorm came and went quickly overnight, and the early morning Jiangzhou City kicked off a lively prelude as always.
It was just a few horses hurrying through the city to cause a commotion in the quiet streets, attracting curses.
When Master Cheng was pacing in the living room for a long time, he finally saw the housekeeper who hurried in outside the door.
"How?" He asked busily.
The housekeeper nodded, stepped forward and said a few words, and Master Cheng's face was extremely ugly.
"It's really bad. Bad luck at home! He went back to the inner room and sat down. I was still angry.
Mrs. Cheng withdrew her head and held the tea herself.
"No one knows. It's fine. She reassured, and at this point she couldn't help but ask again, "Is that really the case?" ”
Master Cheng nodded with a dark face.
"I have found out that it is a man in a nearby village, the woman is looking for it, the housekeeper has already given the money to send it away, only said that she was hunted in the mountains and was caught by thunder, and the woman has no children, so she is very happy to take the money and sell the land and return to her parents' house to remarry." He said.
Mrs. Cheng let out a long breath.
"It's best to be able to press down, and it's best to be able to press down." She sighed, clasping her hands together and chanting the Buddha. "Thank you so much for Lord Sun Guan this time."
Master Cheng nodded.
"Look, that kid is still watching, what happened, take it back?" He asked.
Mrs. Cheng was silent and did not speak.
It stands to reason that this should have been brought back, but ......
The news that Aunt Xuanmiaoguan Dao was killed by lightning quickly spread at home.
Cheng Liuniang only knew what was going on.
"Oh, why was it so good that it was struck by lightning?" Cheng Qiniang said in surprise, turned her head to look at the nurse who was kneeling and serving outside, and pointed with a small fan, "Mom said. Those heinous ones were only struck by lightning, or those who were weird, oh, the viewer wouldn't be a fox spirit mountain monster, right? ”
What a child...
The sisters in the room glared at her helplessly.
"There are many thunderstorms in the mountains. There are also many wildfires, which are very common. Cheng Liuniang said.
"Then why didn't you split it before, but now that fool goes to split it?" Cheng Qiniang said unconvinced. At this point, he let out a sigh and sat up straight. Spotting something waving a small fan, "Oh. Oh, oh, fool, it's that fool, it must be that fool who brought it in! ”
At the same time, there is a lot of talk going on in other places.
"It's for the fool's sake."
"It's really who is next to whom is unlucky, since you entered the door, you count, how many people have been unlucky?"
“… The eldest lady and the second lady were scolded in front of people, and the old and young members of the old Tang family, Xiaoju and her father and mother were all kicked out of the house, all because of her, and there were already ten people. ”
"Just a few days after entering that temple, the good viewer was struck to death by thunder, tsk..."
Chirping and chattering came from behind the door, and the servant woman who led the way stamped her feet heavily with her face and coughed, and the laughter behind the door suddenly dispersed.
"Fairy Gu, please come here." The servant woman squeezed out a smile and said to the Dao Gu behind her.
Lord Sun Guan nodded, smiled indifferently, and walked a few steps slowly, but his heart echoed the gossip and laughter of the servants and women.
Because of that fool, many people have been unlucky...
A lot of people...
The housewife, the servant girl who serves.......
These people won't be unlucky for no reason, right?
This thought flashed, and Sun Guan was clever.
Provoke that fool to dislike?
So, that woman was unlucky enough to be killed by lightning?
"Fairy Gu." The servant woman called, interrupting her trance.
Only then did Lord Sun Guan see that she had entered Mrs. Cheng's house, and she was busy giving gifts.
"Thank you so much this time." Mrs. Cheng motioned for her to get up and said with a smile.
"Human nature, human nature." Lord Sun Guan saluted again.
"Although it is said to be our family's Taoist temple, it is not as thoughtful as the people in your cultivation, so what my master and I mean is to hand over this Taoist temple to Sun Guan to take care of." Mrs. Cheng said straight to the point, pushing over a deed.
Although he had already guessed that there would be this result, when he really heard it and saw it, Sun Guanzhu still couldn't stop being excited.
"Thank you, old lady, for your trust." She said solemnly.
I always thought that there were some things in this world that I just thought about, but I didn't expect that some unattainable things would be delivered to me in the blink of an eye.
How did all this happen? She was a little dizzy.
It's not uncommon for it to rain and thunder in the mountains, and that's the case at this time of year.
But this year, there was a night of thunder and rain, and Xiao Xuanmiaoguan was thundered and fired.
Then she took her disciples to save people and put out fires.
Then I saw a soaking wet woman who was being supported by a girl in the rain.
Then the woman told her that the little mystical temple wanted her great mystical view to calm down......
That woman!
Sun Guan was clever again.
"There is one more thing to say to Madame, Madame is easy to decide." She said.
"Fairy Gu, please speak." Mrs. Cheng said.
"The lady who lived in the small mystical temple before. Frightened, I knew a little bit about medicine. So, I want to take a look at her and be surprised. Besides, it is better to guard the incense in the view, I don't know what Mrs. thinks? Sun Guan said.
This is really a living bodhisattva given by God with eyes, Mrs. Cheng smiled happily, Amitabha, sure enough, as long as the fool is not at home, she can make everything come true.
Mrs. Cheng immediately went to tell Mr. Cheng, and invited Mr. and Mrs. Cheng to come over. Said the advice of the Lord.
This is a great suggestion for everyone.
"Master Sun Guan is a true cultivator, steady and credible, just do what she says." Master Cheng said.
Second Master Cheng also nodded.
"Back then, the Taoist priest said that he wanted to live in the Taoist temple, and it was really good." He said.
"Xiao Xuan Miaoguan is burning badly, allocate some money for people to repair." Master Cheng said, looked at Mrs. Cheng, and thought for a while, "Whoever you find and how to cultivate is left to Master Sun Guan to decide." ”
The repair workers are all oily and water-fishable. This Lord Sun Guan helped their family a lot, and he was so understanding and took the initiative to ask that fool to stay in Guanzhong, Master Cheng felt that he must repay this person.
There was no objection to this, and Mrs. Cheng got up and went to tell Lord Sun Guan. Master Cheng also invited the housekeeper to instruct the payment of wages.
Mr. and Mrs. Cheng Er left without incident.
"But that's weird." Second Mrs. Cheng thought of something and said in a low voice.
"What's weird?" Second Master Cheng said absentmindedly.
His appointment has not come down these days. It's accurate to ask again, but if you can't get it for a day, it's not accurate.
"The Taoist temple in Bingzhou was struck by lightning. Why did you come back, this Taoist temple was struck by lightning again. Could it really be something......." Second Lady Cheng said in a low voice.
"What's there? Nothing! Second Master Cheng interrupted her angrily, "It's good that you also listen to what those ignorant women say!" ”
After saying that, she flicked her sleeves and took a step ahead, and Second Mrs. Cheng pouted behind her and followed.
The girl helped Cheng Jianniang into the big mystical temple at the bottom of the mountain, Sun Guan personally led the way, and the Taoist aunts who had been instructed to disperse in advance were hiding in the house, and a few young people couldn't help but be curious and looked out through the cracks in the window.
"It's really that lady!" He whispered, "These are the two ladies I saw on the mountain that day." ”
"It turns out that they are from the Cheng family."
"That lady is really a fool."
"You come late and don't know how to go, I still remember that Mrs. Zhou of the Cheng family often went from the bottom of the mountain to Xiaoxuan Miaoguan, and when she passed by, she also came in and kowtowed, just to pray for this child, and every time she cried in it for a long time, it was very pitiful."
The others whispered, tiptoeing to see the woman covered with soap yarn from head to toe, and finally their eyes fell on the girl next to her.
"This girl is a kind person."
"It's not a well-meaning person, and I won't follow to serve this fool, if you want to be someone else, you must be disgusted."
"Yes, she will pull her face and be unhappy, you see how considerate she is now, she really takes care of this fool."
Sun Guanzhu personally took the straw mat and laid it, and watched the girl help Cheng Jianniang to sit down slowly, and then he knelt down on the side.
"I have done what the lady said, and the Cheng family let the lady live here temporarily." She said, her expression couldn't hide her excitement, "Thank you, lady." ”
This excitement has always existed when she saw the silver ticket issued by the Cheng family's housekeeper.
She didn't expect that the Cheng family would leave the repair of the little mystical temple to herself, which was really unexpected.
This money is more than enough to repair the small Xuan Miao Temple, as the owner of a Taoist temple where incense is not abundant, it is really short of money, with this extra money, she and her apprentices can change the Taoist robes that can no longer be worn.
"This is just the beginning." Cheng Jianniang looked at her and said.
The first step has been taken, firstly, the small mystical view is the industry of the Cheng family, and secondly, there are human relations, and there are only human favors, and there will be timely movement in the future, and then there is a good foundation for the Cheng family this time, and the sesame oil will naturally not be less in the future.
Sun Guan naturally thought of it, but ....
It's not strange to think about it, but she didn't say anything, but this lady seems to know what she thinks, and even what she wants to say.
She couldn't help but look up at the lady in front of her.
Cheng Jianniang has taken off the fence and revealed her face, this is the first time that Sun Guanzhu has seen her appearance clearly, and the last time she couldn't see it really at night when she was in a panic.
Sun Guan still remembers Mrs. Zhou of the Cheng family, at this time it seems that this child looks more like his mother, and he has integrated his father, removed the power fence and stirred the hair curtain to reveal a pair of ink eyebrows, as thin as willow leaves, narrow and long as a knife, and with that pair of almond eyes, it is a pity that the black pupils in the eyes are less than the white kernels, which adds to the cold atmosphere of the forest, which makes people dare not look more.
Sun Guan lowered his head.
"Thank you for your attention." She thanked her again.
"It is the contemplation of the Lord's benevolence that deserves it." Cheng Jianniang said.
That kind of thunderstorm, fierce thunder and fire, and a small mystical view with a bad reputation, she can still take her apprentice to the danger to rescue, which shows that it is indeed compassion and benevolence.
There is no need to be polite, Sun Guan thanked him.
"The lady will stay here for the time being, and then move over there after repairs." She said, apologetically, "The Burrow has wronged the lady." ”
Cheng Jianniang didn't speak.
Master Sun Guan didn't dare to say anything and retreated, and the apprentices who had been waiting impatiently and hurriedly gathered around, looking at the master as if he was relieved.
"Isn't that stupid thing scary?" The youngest disciple couldn't help but ask.
Will you beat people, scold people, cry and coax, can't be persuaded and have to be reasonable?
What a fool
The viewer couldn't help but look back, at a young age, sitting there, not moving, without moving, but it made her feel that she didn't dare to say more and didn't dare to look more.
The most important thing is that she always feels that this incident has something to do with that fool, but can the thunder fire be controlled by people? This is simply impossible, only immortals can do it.
But that kind of thought just lingered in her heart, and she didn't know why Lu Dao had such thoughts.
"yes, that's kind of scary." She muttered. (To be continued......)
