Chapter 18 Is It a Story?

The kite was cut off, Li Yao put his hand on the pergola, stopped there, looked at the kite that kept moving away, and didn't move for a long time.

For her previous life, she said with some sadness: Just like the sisters and brothers who ruthlessly designed to let her kite fall into the water, if they don't like you, they won't cherish you, so they easily ended everything with a simple "I'm sorry", so it was easy to throw away and destroy the things that were full of your heart.

She didn't want to make a new idea, but in order to tie the past, she made a nine-tailed cat kite to fly, hoping to fulfill her wish to let go of the past. In fact, if you really want to put it down, why care about the style of the kite, it's her appearance!

She finally said secretly: Maybe in your eyes, I was as low as dust. But...... From now on, I want to be a woman like a sunflower, always living brightly towards the sun!

If he was not mistaken, his cousin Fang Cai's mood seemed to be a little low, and he also seemed depressed. Standing aside and watching for a while, in order to liven up the atmosphere, Li An stepped forward in a cheerful tone and said, "I've heard of the nine-tailed fox, but the nine-tailed cat has never heard of it." My cousin's nine-tailed kite, right? I'd be interested in hearing about it. ”

After a final glance at the kite that was far away, Li Yao lowered her head without hesitation, looked at her cousin and said softly, "If you want to hear it, I'll tell you." ”

"Naturally, I want to hear it. Is it just that this story is as long as the story of Sun Monkey? ”

Suddenly having the urge to talk, Li Yao looked at Li An with a smile and said, "It's not long, it's just a small story." ”

After that, she began to tell the story.

"It is said that the Buddha said that all living beings in the world who have seven knots can cultivate to become immortals. Cats are naturally among them. A cultivating cat can grow a tail every twenty years, and when the tail grows to the ninth, it will be able to cultivate into an immortal. But this ninth tail is not long.

When a cat has eight tails, it gets a hint that it has to fulfill a person's wishes. And every time a wish is granted, it has to lose a tail. As long as the eight-tailed cat helps people fulfill a wish, it will lose a tail, and then grow it again through cultivation, and then lose it again. So it's almost an endless loop, and it seems like it can only have eight tails and never grow a ninth.

However, there is a cat that is very religious. Although it has always had eight tails, and it doesn't know how many years it has lived and how many people it has helped fulfill its wishes, it still insists that it can cultivate into a nine-tailed cat. It also complained to the Buddha that if it continued like this, how could it cultivate the Tao? But the Buddha smiled and did not answer......"

Listening to Li Yi tell the story of Journey to the West, Ji Moxuan felt interesting, he finished flying the kite at this time, so he came over to let Li Yao finish the story, don't hang everyone's appetite. Unexpectedly, here he heard a strange story. He wasn't interested in the story and wanted to interrupt.

Fu Jingheng had deep thought on his face and seemed to be attentive. Li Ying glanced at him, quickly pressed his finger to his lips, and motioned to Ji Moxuan not to interrupt.

Everyone else was centered on Li Jin, so no one spoke to interrupt the story.

Immersed in his own thoughts, Li Yao didn't know that there were some people behind him. Even her fiancΓ©, Jian Yichen, was among them. She continued to tell the story in a calm tone.

"In one village, there was a boy who used to go up to the mountains to play, and when he was lucky, he could hunt some small animals on the mountains. But in a sudden summer rainstorm, the boy met a hungry wolf. But at the same time, he was also lucky, he was saved by the eight-tailed cat that appeared there.

The eight-tailed cat saw that the boy was the descendant of his first master, and in return for his kindness, he said to the boy, "If you have a wish, say it, and I can help you make it happen." But only one wish. ”

The legend of the eight-tailed cat was well known to many people in the era of juvenile life. The boy didn't think he would meet an eight-tailed cat. He could see that the cat was extraordinary, and although it was as big as a wolf, it didn't look scary at all, but very beautiful. It is snow-white, with graceful movements when walking, and its whole body is glowing with warm light, and the rain does not come close to it at all.

But the boy couldn't make any wishes at this time. Perhaps there were too many wishes, and he decided not to mention which one to mention; Or maybe he was more content, and felt that it was already a great blessing that he was saved by the eight-tailed cat, so he didn't have any wishes for the time being.

So the eight-tailed cat decided to follow the boy home, until the boy made a wish.

Of course, at this time, the eight-tailed cat also converged its tail and size, and became an ordinary kitten

The boy liked the kitten so much that he played with it every day. Since the boy was the offspring of his first owner, the eight-tailed cat was very tolerant of him, and he played happily with the boy for a while. But apparently the eight-tailed cat, which had lived for hundreds of years, did not want to stay here, and then urged the boy to say what he wanted.

Although the boy was reluctant to let the eight-tailed cat leave, he knew that the eight-tailed cat did not want to stay here. So he reluctantly asked, "Can any wish come true?" ”

The eight-tailed cat had a look of contempt, as if to say, "There is nothing in this world that I can't do!" ”

So after a long time...... The boy said in a sincere tone, "I hope you can grow a ninth tail." ”

When the boy said this, the eight-tailed cat was very moved. After a while, it leaned forward and licked the young man's hand with moist eyes. It feels like it's happy.

For hundreds of years, everyone who encountered it only selfishly demanded and demanded from it, but no one ever cared about what it needed. But this teenager simply and sincerely hoped that it would be good. And so at this moment, a miracle happened! The eight-tailed cat's whole body emitted a warm light, and it gradually regained its shape, and the tail behind it slowly grew a ninth. ”

After telling this story, Li Yao wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and continued with a smile: "It turns out that the heavenly opportunity to attain the Tao lies here, the eight-tailed cat meets someone who can give it perfection, and it can grow a ninth tail. But...... In fact, very few people are willing to waste their luck to complete the consummation of an eight-tailed cat. Its aspirations are persistent and simple, but no one thinks of fulfilling them. ”

Li An was still pondering, but Ji Moxuan's sarcastic voice sounded: "This story is simply unreasonable!" There are three things that make no sense of this: one is that this enlightened heavenly machine is unfair to the eight-tailed cat. As the saying goes, relying on mountains and mountains, relying on water and water to run out, and relying on others to achieve perfection, it is better to fulfill yourself. Relying on the charity of others, where can you stand up straight? But the eight-tailed cat never had that chance. ”

"Second, the young man ran to the mountain where there was a wolf if he had nothing to do, wasn't he looking for death himself? Doesn't he know the truth that the son of a daughter does not sit in the court? What a brainless person! ”

"Three, can realize a wish, if someone encounters this kind of opportunity, he will naturally seize it urgently, say what he wants to achieve the most, who will think of what the person who helps him realize his wish needs. I won't anyway, and I'm sure no one will! ”
