Chapter 127: Once an affectionate young man
Cuicui broke the skin of the three sheep herders, and the three of them were in pain, and they knelt on the ground and begged for mercy! Cuicui just gave up.
Rushi asked everyone: "Brothers and sisters, what do you think is the best way to deal with these three people?" ”
Bi'er and Ran'er glanced at each other, and Bi'er replied loudly: "Sister, I deserve that it will be inconvenient for us to bring these three people to the hotel, but I don't think it should be easy to let them go." I thought it would be better to tie the feet of the three of them with ropes and hang them upside down in a tall tree, waiting for someone passing by to come and rescue them. If no one comes to save them, that's how they should be, and if they starve to death or get bitten to death by animals, it's none of our business. What does my sister think of me? ”
Rushi smiled and said, "My sister and I basically have the same idea, so let's find a taller tree and hang the three of them upside down with a rope." ”
The three of them were so frightened by the conversation between Rushi and Bi'er that they knelt on the ground and trembled, their lips turned white, and they couldn't even speak!
Ran Er and Dali found the tallest tree in the vicinity and hung the three of them upside down.
At this time, there were more and more sheep around several people, and the sheep who had just spoken just now said to Rushi again: "Benefactor, although we people say that we have restored our freedom now, we can't change back into human form after all!" How can we do it? ”
Rushi said: "In this way, for the safety of you girls, we will pretend to be sheep herders, and we will take you with us to the hotel in a while, and at night to ensure your safety, how about Ran'er and Dali guarding you by your side?" ”
The sheep nodded their heads in agreement. So the group of six took the flock of sheep and left the dense forest and went straight to the road.
After a few people stayed at the hotel, they had a simple dinner. Ziyan and Cuicui fed the sheep and ate some simple meals, and the two decided to take care of the sheep for a while, let Ran'er and Dali sleep for a while, and then let the two of them take care of the sheep when it was late.
Rushi and Bi'er rested and meditated in the room. Rushi soon entered the illusion, and she felt that she was already in a wooden boat in the vast ocean, and she looked at the blue sky.
In the middle of the boat, with his back to her, sat an old monk in a yellow robe, who turned around and looked at Rushi with a smile.
Rushi was pleasantly surprised, she quickly knelt down and said, "The master is above, please accept the apprentice's worship!" I wonder what instructions your old man has given when he comes to see me? ”
The old monk asked, "Rushi, are you going to meet the city venerable of the Brown City tomorrow?" And even if he wants an antidote, to save these girls? ”
Rushi responded with a smile: "Master, what you said is very true, and I have this intention. I don't know if the master has anything to tell me about this? ”
The old monk said, "Rushi, do you know that the antidote is no longer in the hands of that city venerable, but has been stolen by someone. In other words, even if he finds Chengzun now, he will have no antidote! ”
Rushi looked anxious and asked, "Master, how can that be?" What else can be done to save these girls? ”
The old monk said: "To save these girls, the first thing is to save this city zun, and the soul of the city zun needs redemption the most!" ”
Rushi asked curiously: "Master, isn't that Chengzun the culprit, the most ruthless person?" What are you doing to save him? What does it have to do with saving him and saving the girls? ”
After hearing this, the old monk shook his head lightly and asked Rushi: "Disciple, have you heard of a person who was born with the most heinous crimes?" ”
Rushi is a woman who reacts very quickly, and when she heard the master say this, she immediately understood what the master meant! Rushi replied: "Master, you want to say that this Chengzun used to be a kind person, but because of some encounters, his temperament has changed greatly, the good thoughts in his heart are gone, and the faith in his heart has been shaken, so he will repeatedly do things that hurt nature and reason, and he does not want to repent!" ”
The old monk said happily: "Rushi, you are really smart and clever!" That's right, that's exactly what it means to be a teacher! Speaking of which, when Chengzun was young, he was also a young talent. He had a deep affection for a girl, but the girl disliked him for being a poor scholar. also humiliated him in public many times, saying that he really wanted to eat swan meat because of the toad, and he didn't pee if he wanted to chase girls, and what kind of virtue he was! Later, the girl married the son of a rich and noble family, and the city was disheartened, and from then on he became angry and studied, and finally won the examination. At this point, the old monk stopped talking.
Rushi said: "Master, why don't you talk about it anymore?" What happened? ”
The old monk said: "Later, the career of the city honorable went all the way, and finally achieved the position of the city honorable. He was very happy, and after many inquiries, he finally found the girl he liked back then. The girl saw that his identity was no longer what it used to be, so she changed her cold attitude towards him in her early years, and turned to be gentle with him. So the city persecuted the girl's husband to write a letter of divorce and repaired the girl. Then he married the girl. But who knows, a few years after the two, the emperor sent a minister to visit Brown City. The minister was dignified, and the girl fell in love with the minister at first sight, so she fell into the arms of the minister! The minister of Naqin asked Chengzun whether he could give his wife to him! Na Chengzun is not a fool, he has already found out that his wife is in love with the minister of Naqincha, and she is very affectionate. Although he was a hundred unwilling in his heart, he thought about it again, women may be disgusted with the poor and love the rich, and it is impossible to offend the minister for a woman, so he actually agreed to the absurd request of the minister, and gave his wife to the minister with his own hands! When the old monk said this, his expression couldn't help but be a little painful, and he let out a long sigh.
Seeing this, Rushi said: "Master, I guess after this, the character of the city lord has changed greatly, he has become a man who regards wealth as his life, and he has become a hater of all women in this world!" In order to earn more money, he has become extremely powerful, even if he has done all the crazy things, he will not even feel the slightest disturbance of conscience! ”
The old monk said with a slightly sad expression: "Yes, like a poem." You're absolutely right. He has probably lost himself since then, from an affectionate man to a demon with blood on his hands! ”
Rushi asked again: "Master, how can I save him now that he is like this?" What is the inevitable connection between saving him and saving the girls? ”
The old monk said with a serious expression: "The antidote was thrown away by the masters, and even I can't figure out where to find it." So, I tried my best to calculate again, there is another antidote in this world, but I'm afraid it will be even more difficult to obtain! ”
Rushi immediately asked, "Master, what is the antidote?" ”
The old monk said with a solemn expression: "That antidote is the tears that moved the city!" Disciple, pay attention not to the tears from eating chili peppers, not the tears of pain when the eyes are smoked, not the tears of joy when you see too much silver! It must be the tears that Chengzun himself shed from the heart! ”
Rushi frowned and said, "Master, do you think this Chengzun still has the possibility of shedding tears?" ”
The old monk shook his head and was silent in thought, as if he couldn't give an answer......
