Chapter 4: Awakening from a Dream?

Xiaolong entered the Taoist temple and found that it was only an outer courtyard, and the inside looked much larger than the Taoist temple seen from the outside. There is a small stream in the outer courtyard of the pen%fun %pavilion www.biquge.info and on the other side is the door to enter the inner courtyard, but there seems to be no bridge to cross it.

Xiaolong is now going to try to see if he can get around, there is a small garden outside, and there is a strange ancient pine, it is estimated that it will take a dozen or so people to hug it.

At this time, two little Taoist priests suddenly appeared out of nowhere, of course, their age still looked a year or two older than Xiaolong.

One of the little Taoist priests spoke, "It's Liu Teng from a hundred miles away, right?" The master is waiting for you in the lobby of the inner courtyard, come with us. ”

The two little Taoist priests turned around to lead the way in front, and Xiaolong hurriedly followed, only to see the two Taoist priests walking to the stream and stepping on it directly. The little dragon noticed an old stone bridge under their feet, slowly expanding as they walked.

Standing on the bridge, I realized that the bridge was much longer than when I saw it below, and it seemed to have penetrated through the clouds. The rainbow hung directly on the bridge, and several unnamed birds flew past them, perhaps fairy birds.

After crossing the bridge, I went directly to the gate of the inner courtyard, and at this time the people stood in front of it and looked very small. Dozens of feet high door, Xiaolong thinks about people and needs to open such a big door?

After taking a closer look, Xiaolong suddenly found that there was no plaque for such a magnificent gate, and the place where the ordinary immortals were located was not every small courtyard, and every gate had a name? That's how folk tales are told, isn't that true?

Xiaolong still remembered that before he entered the Taoist temple, he seemed to have seen that this Taoist temple had no name.

"Didn't you meet a monster? But the monster won't ignore these, maybe it's a low-key fairy. It doesn't matter if it's a god or a demon, I can't run. ”

The two little Taoist priests led Xiaolong into the door of the inner courtyard, and as they walked, there was a sudden fog around them, and the two little Taoist priests disappeared.

"Hey, anyone? Two Taoist brothers, where did you go? ”

No one responded to him, so he had to look in one direction and finally walked out of the fog.

However, what caught his eye was Dashan Village, and Xiaolong was standing at the entrance of the village, and he entered the village. Aunt Liu, Uncle Li and others all greeted him, and a big yellow dog pounced on him to make trouble. A few children the same size as Xiaolong chased behind, and they were a group of friends like Ergouzi.

The two dogs came over and asked Xiaolong to dig out the bird's nest, but at this time Xiaolong was confused and wanted to hurry home to have a look.

When he returned to his fenced yard, he saw his mother doing laundry and his father chopping wood by the stove.

"Well, it's Xiaolong who is back, you go to the pot to find food by yourself, and the leftovers are hot for you." Wang Chunmei said to Xiaolong.

Xiaolong picked up the food from the pot and sat on the table in the small courtyard to eat, but he was wondering in his heart: Why didn't my mother and father ask me if I didn't go out to learn the Tao, why did I come back suddenly.

"Daddy, I finally arrived at a Taoist temple after I went out for a month, but I suddenly came back for some reason before I saw the host." Xiaolong said to his father.

How do you know that Liu San and Wang Chunmei said after listening to Xiaolong's words, "You kid, aren't you confused?" You didn't just go out with the two dogs in the morning, why are you confused for half the day. ”

"But didn't you tell me that when I was born twelve years ago, there was a vision in the sky, and then a living immortal appeared and told me to go west after twelve years to renew the relationship between master and apprentice." Xiaolong continued.

"Where, the weather was very good when you were born, and your mother is old, but it was smooth when she gave birth to you! This is where you heard this, after eating and sleeping well, you forgot these nonsensical words. Liu San replied.

Xiaolong can't sleep for a long time when he lies in bed at night, why don't even his parents remember this, could it be really a dream that I fell asleep somewhere when I went out to play with the two dogs?

The next day, the whole world seemed to change!

As the little dragon walked through the village, everyone either closed the door when they saw him, or threw stones at him. He scolded in his mouth, "Little monster, if you don't go back and hide in your own house, you still come out to be scary, right?" ”

"What's wrong with all of you? I'm not a monster, I'm a dragon. Why don't you all know me anymore? ”

"Phew, your father and mother are monsters, what are you not monsters?"

There was a lot of scolding outside, and many stones flew towards him, and the little dragon hurried home. I saw my father and mother hiding in the house and didn't dare to see anyone, and closed the windows to death.

Xiaolong took a closer look, only to find that there were many green scales on his father's arms.

"Could it be that Daddy is really a monster, but so what? I'm still their child, and it looks like we're going to move out and live in a place where no one is around. Xiaolong thought.

So Xiaolong's family moved away, but no matter where they went, as long as someone saw Xiaolong's father, they fell into the dilemma of being shouted and beaten by everyone.

Over the years, Xiaolong had to take his father and mother to move around. At last they came to a valley far away from the troubles of the world, where he and his father and mother could take refuge.

One day, when Xiaolong came back from hunting, he found that his father and mother were gone, and he searched everywhere. In the end, he found the remains of his father and mother in the woods, torn by something, but he recognized the clothes at a glance.

After Xiaolong buried his father's body, he carefully thought about who did it.

"If it were a person who saw his father's mother's appearance, would he do this, but no one came to this place. If the beast did it, there should be blood from near my house. All that's left is that possibility. ”

Before Xiaolong and his father settled here, they had heard that this large area of beautiful mountains and rivers was deserted, mainly because it was said that there was a monster on this territory who liked to eat human flesh.

After the first seven years of his father's mother, the little dragon took his hunting bow and spear and went into the woods. shouted loudly, "Youkai, come out for me, I will kill you to avenge my father!" ”

The little dragon shouted loudly in the woods, and finally the monster was lured out.

"Where did the yellow-haired boy come from, he can't find death, disturb your grandfather's rest. It just so happened that the king woke up and added food. ”

A demonic mist floated out and wrapped itself around the little dragon.

A bloody mouth was revealed in the demon mist, and he was about to swallow the little dragon, saying that it was too late, and then quickly, a golden light flashed.

A miserable scream came, and the demon mist dispersed in front of the little dragon, revealing the original form of the monster, which turned out to be a wolf demon.

I saw that a blood hole on the wolf demon's skull was bleeding, and it was a fatal blow.

"May I ask who rescued me? Xiaolong is willing to repay himself as a cow and a horse. ”

At this time, an old Taoist suddenly faded out in front of Xiaolong, "Little brother, why did you go to this forest alone to provoke monsters?" ”

"Dao Chief, I want to avenge my father, this monster killed my father."

"But, you, a mortal, came to seek revenge from a monster, aren't you looking for death?"

"But even if it is death, my father's revenge must be avenged, otherwise it will be in vain as a son of man."

"Okay then, you can go with the poor road!"
