Volume 1 Crossing the Tang Dynasty Chapter 6 Picking Up Stones
In the early morning, Lu Xiaoxian was still dreaming.
In the dream, he returns to the familiar world of the afterlife, which is the world that truly belongs to him. The good times didn't last long, and the silver-ringed snake suddenly broke into the dream, and there was a magical pink miasma, and the world in the dream instantly became chaotic.
Lu Xiaoxian struggled to wake up, but he couldn't open his eyes.
Suddenly, an eerie voice rang out. Immediately after, a strange smell came to my nose. Lu Xiaoxian twitched his nose, finally opened his eyes, and he sat up.
There was an indescribable stench in the room, which made him sick to his stomach. I don't know when, the ghost of lack of virtue has already entered the house, and Bai Gongzi hides behind the ghost of lack of virtue, shaking his head and tail, with a wicked smile on his face.
Lu Xiaoxian looked at the immoral ghost suspiciously, and secretly wondered in his heart: What smells so bad, could it be that he has cast mustard gas.
"Wake him up!" The ghost of lack of virtue pointed to Zhang Meng, who was still asleep.
Under such bad air pollution, this guy can still sleep, Lu Xiaoxian has to admire him.
Lu Xiaoxian shook him awake, Zhang Meng rubbed his eyes and sat up, looking at Lu Xiaoxian and the immoral ghost at a loss.
"Got up later than the master, did anyone do this as a slave?" The immoral ghost reprimanded with a straight face, "Come with me quickly!" ”
With that, the ghost of lack of virtue turned around and walked out of the house, and Bai Gongzi followed out.
Looking at the back of the immoral ghost, Lu Xiaoxian snorted: "What's so angry, it's the same as the real thing?" ”
Lu Xiaoxian looked down on the appearance of the lack of virtue and the ghost's command, and wanted to dry him, but the smell in the house was too bad, so he had to escape from the house in a hurry.
The unpleasant smell didn't seem to have much effect on Zhang Meng, and this guy slowly went out slowly.
Outside the house, the immoral ghost breathed heavily. Obviously, he couldn't stand the smell of the house.
Seeing Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng coming out, the ghost who lacked virtue didn't speak, and walked forward by himself. Bai Gongzi is like a follower, and he tends to follow behind the immoral ghost.
Lu Xiaoxian wanted to know where the immoral ghost was going to take them, but he couldn't pull his face to ask, so he had to follow behind with Zhang Meng.
The lack of virtue ghost has a large stride and walks fast, and Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng almost have to trot to keep up.
After walking for more than half an hour, the ghost who lacked virtue had no intention of stopping at all. Zhang Meng really couldn't walk, and Lu Xiaoxian couldn't bear it anymore.
If it is placed before the crossing, this road is nothing to Lu Xiaoxian. But now he is only a ten-year-old child, and of course his physical strength is not the same. The sensation of the body was the most real, and he was already out of breath all the way.
Lu Xiaoxian didn't care about losing face, he shouted at the lack of morality: "Where are you going to take us?" ”
"Since you are a slave, of course you are going to work!" The lack of virtue and the ghost will not return.
"Where do you work? How far do you have to go? ”
"It's almost there!"
Lu Xiaoxian was helpless, so he had to hug Zhang Meng, gritted his teeth and continued to walk forward.
Along the way, Lu Xiaoxian kept asking, but the ghost who lacked virtue always used the words "almost there" to perfunctory him.
Finally couldn't hold it anymore, Lu Xiaoxian pulled Zhang Meng and sat on the ground.
I won't leave if I am killed.
The ghost seemed to have eyes behind him, stopped, turned around, and stared at them expressionlessly.
"Did you promise me that if I helped bury your father, you would be my slave? Now you don't admit it? The immoral ghost asked seriously.
Although they were forced to be helpless, Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng did agree.
Seeing that they did not speak, the immoral ghost asked again: "The master did not say that he was tired, so you two will not leave, are there any slaves like this?" ”
Lu Xiaoxian couldn't refute, he held his breath in his heart, he pointed at the immoral ghost with his finger, and didn't say anything for a long time.
The two of them are in a very bad situation now, and if they want to survive, there is no second way to go except to rely on the lack of virtue ghosts.
What's more, being a slave is also what they agreed to, the face of the immoral ghost is hateful, but Lu Xiaoxian is helpless.
Bai Gongzi was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, shook his head and tail, and circled around Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng, with a proud face.
Looking at the angry Lu Xiaoxian, the immoral ghost showed a meaningful smile.
In any case, the immoral ghost must not be allowed to see the joke. Lu Xiaoxian took a deep breath and tried to calm his emotions.
Lu Xiaoxian regained his composure, but the ghost who lacked virtue felt bored, turned around and walked forward.
After grinding for a while, Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng still stood up obediently and followed behind the immoral ghost.
When they reached a small river at the foot of the mountain, the ghost finally stopped.
Working here?
What do you do?
Lu Xiaoxian had a stomach full of questions, but he couldn't help but ask, the ghost who lacked virtue would definitely take the initiative to tell them.
Sure enough, the immoral ghost took out two things from his arms and handed them to Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng respectively: "Take it!" ”
The two took it, and Lu Xiaoxian took a closer look, it was a round pebble, about the size of a mountain date.
The immoral ghost solemnly commanded: "You two will go to the river to find a pebble by the river according to its size!" ”
This is very simple, Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng did it honestly.
Glancing at the pebbles that the two of them had found, the immoral ghost nodded, and handed each of them a small cloth bag: "Not bad!" Put it in a bag and we'll go back! ”
After saying that, the ghost turned around and walked in the direction he came.
Yes?
Get back?
Didn't you say you had to work?
Lu Xiaoxian had already made up his mind and would no longer take the initiative to talk to the immoral ghost, but he still couldn't help asking, "Wait, didn't you say you want to work?" Why did you go back again? ”
"It's done!" The lack of virtue and the ghost did not reply, "In the future, when you get up every day, you will come here to pick pebbles first." ”
"Pick a stone and go back, this is considered work?" Lu Xiaoxian's eyes widened.
"Where is all this nonsense!" The immoral ghost reprimanded unceremoniously.
Coming so far, just to pick a stone, Lu Xiaoxian was so angry that he almost didn't scold, he was simply nervous.
Back in the cabin where they lived, Lu Xiaoxian closed the door and didn't say a word.
Zhang Meng asked cautiously: "Xiaoxian, are you angry?" ”
"Nonsense, aren't you angry?" Lu Xiaoxian didn't have a good airway.
"I'm not angry! I think it's nice here! Zhang Meng wiped a handful of snot, "Daddy is dead, and I am also alone when I return to Kushui Village, so I might as well stay here!" ”
Lu Xiaoxian opened his mouth to refute Zhang Meng, but he couldn't think of any good words. People are under the eaves and have to bow their heads. Zhang Meng is right, if he really returns to Kushui Village, with the identity and age of the two of them, it is estimated that they will only be waiting to starve to death.
Even if you want to stay here, even if you are a slave, you can't let the immoral ghost do whatever he wants. Lu Xiaoxian made up his mind that he must carry it with the immoral ghost, he didn't let himself be comfortable, and he couldn't make him feel better.
On the flat ground outside the wooden house, Shaking Wind glanced at the closed door of Lu Xiaoxian's wooden house, and then turned to the immoral ghost and asked, "Senior brother, what do you think of him?" ”
"I can't say it yet!" The ghost who lacks virtue is noncommittal, "If the jade is not cut, it will not be made, only polish it for a while and then look at it!" ”
Shaking the wind reminded: "Senior brother, you take it easy, don't push it too hard, it's too late!" ”
"I know what I know!" The immoral ghost nodded.
