Chapter 228: Burying Father and Girl
I stayed with the Heavenly Monarch as a grass body, and with the tacit approval of the Queen Mother of the West, I stayed in peace.
The Heavenly Monarch wants to go on a trip and go to the world to observe the people's livelihood as before. In the past, his private interview with Weifu was silent and only brought one me, and he came and went quietly, but this time he brought a few entourages, Yang Jian and Tai Baixing were in the ranks.
And as a good herb that can cure Tianjun's headache, I am of course also one of the essential bags for Tianjun's travel. It's just that the Heavenly Monarch hid my grass body in his sleeve.
Staying in the sleeve of Tianjun, he listened to Tianjun and Yang Jian, Tai Baixing and others discuss what they heard and saw along the way in the world, and admired Tianjun's political views on life and death and taking precautions.
I was dizzy in the sleeve of Tianjun's shirt and was tossed by Tianjun's walking posture, and most of the time I fell asleep.
When I woke up suddenly, I found myself on the table in front of the bed of an inn in the world. Outside the window, the night was dark, there were no stars and no moon, and inside the window, Tianjun was lying on the bed and falling asleep. I hadn't eaten all day, and I was so hungry that a puff of smoke flew out of the lattice, trying to steal something from the inn kitchen.
Looking for the smell of food in the night breeze, I groped my way to the kitchen. A handful of fireflies were sprinkled into the air, and the kitchen lit up. The inn kitchen hygiene in the world is really not complimentary, although the food has not deteriorated, but it is not fresh, I will find a few steamed buns and vegetable buns, while gnawing out of the kitchen. The fireflies followed, dancing over my head and shoulders.
I ate so hard that I was so hungry that I ate too hard. Choked. I was looking for water to drink, when I looked up and saw Yang Jian standing in front of me, looking at me in astonishment. I choked on the steamed buns and couldn't speak, so I had to stomp my feet. Yang Jian hurriedly changed the pot of water for me, and I gulped and drank before pressing the steamed bun in my throat.
Patting my chest, I gasped for breath, and seeing Yang Jian staring at me, I stretched out the steamed bun in my hand to him suspiciously: "You...... I'm hungry too. Coming out in the middle of the night looking for something to eat? β
Yang Jian laughed "poof". "I'm curious why you're here?"
I only know that the Heavenly Monarch brought the herb down to earth, but I don't know that the herb is my Zhuzhu!
Yang Jian smiled, and then his expression became serious and serious. He dragged me under a big tree in the garden. He lowered his voice and said, "Don't you know that you can't go down to earth without the order of the Heavenly Monarch?" You're bold enough to follow us into the inn. If you are discovered by the Heavenly Monarch, your little life will be over. β
The fireflies' fireflies mapped Yang Jian's face into extraordinarily clean up. He looked so funny that I couldn't help laughing. And Yang Jian continued to urge me: "Take advantage of the fact that Tianjun and Tai Bai Xing have not discovered you now. Hurry back to heaven! β
Yang Jian said, pushed me, and saw that I was in place, he was a little annoyed, and said with a smile: "I let you go for the sake of Ying Li's face, otherwise if I were to be replaced by other fairy daughters, I would have already pulled me to Tianjun, what kind of big crime is it for immortals to go down to earth privately, do you know?" β
I bit my lip and chewed on the steamed dandruffs in my mouth, looking careless.
Yang Jian was anxious, "Hey, Fairy Zhu, the Heavenly Court Imperial Dining Room has eight treasures and jade food, you won't just come to this small inn to steal steamed buns, right?" β
"The steamed buns in the world are indeed different from those in Heaven, the pocket steamed buns in the heavenly court are one bite at a time, and the steamed buns in the world are so big as a fist that they choke me to death." I patted my chest as I spoke, shocked.
Yang Jian was about to roll his eyes, "When are you still in the mood to joke." β
"General Yangβ" The voice of Tai Bai Xing came from the corridor not far away.
Yang Jian was startled, hurriedly let go of the hand holding my arm, and whispered to urge me: "You hurry back to heaven!" Obedient-" said that he went to the platinum star. He walked in a hurry, probably because he didn't want me to be exposed.
"Tai Bai Xing, why don't you sleep so late, wandering around?" Yang Jian had already hurried to meet Tai Bai Xing, holding his shoulders and walking towards the end of the verandah.
"It's not because you woke up and didn't see General Yang, where do you think you went?" Taibai's shrill voice faded away.
I stood under the big tree, continued to eat the steamed buns in my hand, and went back to the guest room where Tianjun was staying.
As soon as I returned to the guest room, as soon as I returned to the grass, Tianjun woke up, and I forgot to take back the fireflies. Fireflies flutter up and down around my blades of grass, and it must be beautiful to think about. Tianjun walked straight up to me from the bed, a stunning smile on his lips.
"Other flowers and plants attract bees and butterflies, but your pearl grass actually attracts fireflies, what kind of special function is this?"
I remembered that I was imprisoned in the enchantment by him in the past, and he was afraid that I would be bored, so he put many fireflies from the entrance of the enchantment to accompany me, and my heart couldn't help but warm.
"What, asleep? Can't you hear me? Does Xiaocao want to sleep too? Tianjun's voice was full of pain.
I said, "Don't you want to sleep if you are a god?" What's more, I'm an ordinary little grass? β
Tianjun laughed, "I thought you were asleep, why do I think there is a trace of resentment in your words?" β
As soon as I thought that I had been hungry all day and had stolen two steamed buns in the middle of the night to satisfy my hunger, I felt congested, and I said angrily: "You have eaten and slept enough, of course you are in a good mood......
"Could it be that Xiaocao'er not only has to sleep, but also eats?" Tianjun looked at me with even more interest.
"Or what do you think?"
Tianjun said: "The rice that Xiaocao'er eats should be different from the food eaten by the immortals, right?" Shouldn't the grass be full of sunshine and rain? Do you want to eat big fish and meat? β
Tianjun's words made me even more congested. "Even if you can be full by eating some sunshine and rain dew, Lord Tianjun doesn't want to think that I have only stayed in your sleeve these days, and I haven't eaten any sunshine and rain, right?"
Tianjun's smile became even stronger, "Then I'll let you eat some sunshine and rain tomorrow!" β
From the second day onwards, the Heavenly King no longer let me stay in his sleeve, but held me in his hand and kept spinning my body like a dog's tail grass, until I was dizzy.
The sun was shining brightly, and it turned into a lot of golden ideas in front of my eyes. In the flash of gold, I saw the strange eyes of the gods. Tianjun has always been unsmiling, high up, such a smile at the corners of his mouth, playing with grass in his hand has never been before, like a very small child, no wonder the gods will be surprised.
Tai Bai Xing was a master of observing words and feelings, and there was no surprise at Tianjun's actions on his face, but Yang Jian couldn't help it and asked, "Tianjun, let your subordinates hold this little grass for you!" β
I suspect that Yang Jian is trying to take the opportunity to throw me away.
Tianjun waved his hand and played with me, putting my blades of grass to his nose and sniffing from time to time, making an intoxicated expression.
Yang Jian had no choice but to retreat abruptly, and I immediately heard Taibai whisper to him: "General Yang, do you know what kind of grass that little grass is?" β
"What grass?"
"The strange grass that can cure the headache of the Heavenly Monarch, the Heavenly Monarch Qin gave it a name, called the Zhuzhu Grass." Tai Bai Xing said mysteriously.
"Bead grass?" Yang Jian exclaimed in a low voice. Taibai immediately put his index finger to his lips and "shhh Yang Jian stared thoughtfully at my grass body and did not continue to entangle.
Everyone was walking to a prosperous place in the world, and suddenly they saw a vegetarian girl kneeling above the market, but eight or nine years old, born with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, but extremely thin, and a sign was erected in front of her: Sell yourself to bury your father.
Tianjun stopped, frowned, and said, "I didn't expect that there are still poor creatures in such a prosperous city who have not been redeemed. So saying, Jean Taibai gave the girl a piece of gold, enough for her to bury her dead father and make ends meet in the future.
The team continued to move forward, and Tianjun was sullen all the way.
Taibai carefully followed the side and said tentatively: "The Heavenly Monarch should be relieved, there are sufferings in the world, it is the emperor of the human world who has not done well enough, it is not about the Heavenly Monarch's heavenly benevolence and righteousness, and the Heavenly Monarch should not blame himself too much." β
Tianjun glanced sideways at Taibai, did not speak, and his frowning brows were slightly relieved.
At dusk, I was about to find an inn to rest, but at the door of an inn, I met the girl who sold her body to bury her father.
All the immortals were angry, and the Heavenly Monarch stared at the girl without saying a word. He silently walked into the inn, and the other immortals followed, still checking in.
When the shopkeeper led Tianjun to the best room of the inn, Tianjun placed me in a glass bottle on the table in front of the bed, and Yang Jian led the girl in. Tianjun sat down in front of the window, and the girl knelt in front of Tianjun: "The lord spares his life, and the lord forgives his sins!" β
Tianjun said: "Child, why are you deceiving people? β
The child's delicate face was full of tears, and the corners of his mouth twitched and cried. She wiped her nose and tears with her sleeve, and everyone noticed the bruised whip marks on her arms. (To be continued......)
