Chapter 3: The Journey to the West

On the other side, Xiaolong, twelve years later, also grew up, and after delivering meals to his parents that day, he also helped with farm work for an afternoon. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoAs the sun set, the afterglow dyed half of the clouds red, and Xiaolong returned home with his parents with his lunch box.

In summer, the night in the countryside is not as quiet as water, and the cicadas and frogs make a unique music. Liu San moved a small bench and asked Xiaolong to come out and sit in his fence yard, and he told the story of 12 years ago.

From the husband and wife asking God for a son to getting their wish to have Xiaolong, as well as the vision of heaven when he was born, and then the living immortal Lao Dao and Xiaolong's master-apprentice covenant. Liu San told Xiaolong all these things one by one.

"Although your mother and I are reluctant for you to go far away, but you are going out to learn the Tao from the gods, and you may be able to purify all sentient beings in the future, and we have no reason to stop us, so let's pack up our things and go west tomorrow!"

The next day, Xiaolong put on the new clothes made by his mother Wang Chunmei, and set off with the package packed by his mother on his back. Out of the fence gate, the little dragon turned around and knelt down, and the three heads knocked down heavily.

"Daddy, I don't know when the child will come back, you two elders must take care of themselves when they are old. The two dogs in the village, as well as the elders such as Aunt Wang and Uncle Li, if you greet me, I will not say goodbye to them one by one. ā€

After Xiaolong finished speaking, he finished the package and hit the road.

Although I often work with my father and mother on weekdays, my physical fitness is still okay, but this is the first time I go far away, and I am inevitably afraid. So the little dragon went all the way down the road to the west, hurried during the day, and at night made a fire on the ground, and he climbed to the tree to rest.

This is also an experience learned over a few nights, and there are many predators in the woods, often coming out at night to hunt. All kinds of howls echoed in the woods, and in such cases, people were often prone to hearing other strange sounds.

At first, when he heard this sound, Xiaolong was trembling with fright, and he hugged the package in his hand and leaned against the big tree, and the forest seemed even darker at night.

The leaves swayed, and suddenly a tiger sprang out from behind the little dragon, opening its bloody mouth like a small dragon pounced.

Although Xiaolong was terrified in his heart, he still did not forget to escape. But how can he outrun the king of the jungle, he fell to the ground, and the tiger bit him.

The shocking picture didn't happen, it wasn't someone who happened to pass by and save Xiaolong, it was Xiaolong's eyebrows that emitted a light, forming a golden light cover to block the tiger. This is exactly the golden light that the old Taoist priest dotted at the center of Xiaolong's eyebrows twelve years ago.

The little dragon looked back, and the tiger pounced with its teeth and claws a few more times, but it bounced off the golden light mask. The tiger thought that he could have a good meal tonight when he met a boy with fine skin and tender meat, but he hadn't tasted human taste for a long time, and he didn't know what kind of aperture appeared here, and he hit me with meat and eight vegetables.

The tiger wagged its tail in frustration and slowly left, and looked back at it in three steps. It suddenly occurred to him that there seemed to be a tigress coming from the eastern hill in this forest, and he didn't know if it was beautiful, and the tiger finally decided that it could not eat human flesh, so it thought of going to the tigress to flirt, and ran away quickly.

After the first night, the little dragon was so frightened that he had to climb a tree to rest. After that, every night when the beasts came to disturb him, he made a fire on the ground, and he climbed on the tree to sleep, and he was not used to it at first, but slowly he got used to such days.

On this day, the little dragon had been on the road for a long time, and he was hungry and thirsty, and suddenly heard the sound of water, and hurriedly ran in that direction.

He saw a large river that was very wide, but the water was very gentle, and the little dragon hastened his pace and rushed over.

Suddenly, he fell to the ground with an oops, and it turned out that an old tree stump on the ground had tripped him, and his leg had been cut with a long wound. Blood gushed out, and the little dragon screamed in pain, and then a miracle appeared, and a golden light flashed from the wound, and the wound healed. Only the remaining traces of blood indicate that it was not a dream.

Seeing that his leg was better, Xiaolong was not surprised to run to the river first, picked up the water and drank a few big sips. When you have drunk enough, take out the water bag and fill it with water. Touching the belly, just drinking water is not enough, Xiaolong can try fishing in this big river.

He took out the fishing line from the package, strung the bait on the hook and threw it into the river, and soon the buoy on the river moved. Xiaolong tugged at it for a while, and found that it was a big fish with a lot of stamina, so he relaxed and pulled the fish ashore. It seems that the river is also very rich in fish, and it was not long before I caught fish, and I came out for a walk to realize that there are many wonderful things in the world.

The dragon processed the fish, took the condiments from the package, sprinkled them, wrapped them in a few large leaves, and then wrapped them in mud and roasted them on a pile of fire. This is what he did when he and Ergouzi's friends were in Dashan Village, and Xiaolong looked at the burning flames and suddenly remembered the days in Dashan Village.

"Daddy, I don't know if you're okay after I'm gone, whether you're playing without me, whether you've thought about me, and those respectable and lovely uncles and aunts. The grass and trees in the village, the big millstone at the entrance of the village, the big yellow dog of the big Zhuang family, and the old farming cattle in the village. ā€

Thinking about it, the smell of the fish became stronger, and Xiaolong turned out the grilled fish on the fire. I cracked the clay skin, peeled off the leaves, and tasted the fish, "It's still the same taste, it's delicious."

After eating and resting, I wondered how to cross this river so wide. Xiaolong walked up and down the river, but did not find the boatman, perhaps pulling the boat regularly.

Just look to see if there is a village, and maybe find a ferry.

Don't bother so much, Xiaolong found that a lotus platform appeared on the river and floated towards him. Xiaolong stood on one foot first and found that he could support himself, so he sat down. The lotus platform carried him to the other side of the river, and many fish chased and frolicked under the lotus platform, and the little dragon did not run away from the fish when he pulled the water with his hands.

When he arrived on the other side, Xiaolong felt that it was very interesting to sit on the lotus platform and refused to come down, saying that I would come again. In this way, the lotus platform was tossed back and forth by the little dragon three times, and this time when it came to the lotus platform on the opposite bank, the little dragon was thrown directly to the shore and disappeared.

Xiaolong got up from the grass, rubbed his buttocks, spit out a piece of grass from his mouth, and said to himself, "This lotus platform will also lose its temper!" ā€

After crossing the shore and continuing westward, we walked for a few more days, and it had been a month since I came out of my home. Xiaolong passed by a Taoist temple, and it was not too early to see the sky, so he wanted to stay in the Taoist temple for one night.

Xiaolong knocked on the door first and found that no one answered, so he tried to push the door open and walked in, slowly closing the door. From the outside of the Taoist temple, the white mist gushes out around the Taoist temple to surround the Taoist temple, and when the white fog dissipates, there is only a small hill left here.
