Chapter 3 Xiaobai (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
When Xiaobai opened his eyes, it was already the evening of the next day.
Finding that the surrounding environment was unfamiliar, Xiaobai hurriedly got up and vigilantly observed the surroundings.
This is a room that looks like it was made of stone, and the reason why it is 'looked' is because the walls of this stone house have no traces of splicing at all, but rather look like a whole stone has been hollowed out.
Only the windows and door panels were made of wood, and at this point the windows were propped up, allowing sunlight to shine through the windows, bringing a glimmer of light to the rather modest stone house.
At the same time, a strong aroma wafted in from the window, and when he smelled this aroma, Xiaobai's stomach suddenly screamed.
I'm so hungry...... It smells so good...... I really want to eat it.
Xiaobai walked to the bedside, looked out the window vigilantly, and saw a ginkgo forest outside the window, and a strangely dressed short-haired man with his back to her was roasting a pheasant in a clearing.
The pheasant had been roasted to a golden brown, bubbling with oil, and the aroma was overflowing, and I didn't know what was smeared on it, making the aroma tempting and terrible.
"Now that the girl is awake, how about coming out and eating something?" The man who was roasting the chicken said suddenly.
Xiao Bai was frightened, and hurriedly hid behind the wall next to the window.
"If the girl doesn't want to eat it, forget it." The man's voice came.
Sensing that the man didn't seem to have malicious intent, Xiao Bai hesitated for a moment, and finally made up his mind and walked out of the house.
Slowly walking to a distance of ten meters from the man, Xiaobai stopped and asked, "Who are you?" Where is this? ”
"This is a ginkgo forest outside Yongzhou City." The man flipped the roast chicken in his hand and said, "My name is Huang Shang, Huang Huang, noble Shang." ”
After a pause, Huang Shang asked, "Who is the girl?" Where do you live? ”
"I ......" Xiaobai frowned, and his eyes gradually became a little loose.
Who am I?
"It seems that the girl has forgotten all about the past." Huang Shang said: "But the girl is full of demonic energy, and she must be a demon clan with successful cultivation." ”
"Me? Demon Clan!? Xiaobai was shocked.
"Don't worry, I don't care about race, I only care about good and evil." Huang Shang looked at her and said, "The girl's breath is pure, she shouldn't be a demon, otherwise I won't save you." ”
Xiaobai breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you for saving me." ”
"Not necessarily." Huang Shang waved his hand and pointed to the opposite side, where a clean rock seat rose from the ground: "The girl should be hungry, sit down and eat something." ”
Seeing Huang Shang's 'unintentional' revealing skills, Xiao Bai was shocked, and silently walked to the opposite stone chair and sat down.
The next moment, the flames dissipated, a stone table rose from between the two, and a white plate appeared in the center of the table out of thin air, and the sword qi was activated, cutting the roast chicken evenly into pieces and landing on the plate.
With a move of raising his hand, four thin branches floated over, and halfway through, he was cut into two pairs of chopsticks by the sword qi, one pair fell into Huang Shang's hand, and the other pair fell into Xiao Bai's hand.
Two small porcelain bowls appeared out of thin air, two small water balls fell into the two bowls, and two cold breaths fell into the water, which soon turned into cold pure water.
Huang Shang said: "The wilderness is simple, I can only deal with it, girl, please!" ”
“……”
A cold sweat broke out on Xiaobai's forehead: Does Engong have some misunderstandings about 'dealing with it'?
What did she just see? Earth law, fire method, sword energy, water method, and even spells that conjure plates and bowls out of thin air, this ...... Even the gods are nothing more than that, right!?
Huang Shang picked up a piece of roast chicken and stuffed it into his mouth, the meat was tender, the skin was crispy, and it was fragrant.
Xiaobai came back to his senses, hesitated a little, and still moved his chopsticks.
A piece of roast chicken is in the mouth, and Xiaobai can't stop anymore.
“……”
Huang Shang put down his chopsticks, picked up the bowl and took a sip of ice water, although there was no taste, but the ice was an invisible taste.
Eating only the roast chicken was still a little greasy, so he took out a plate of washed lettuce leaves from the ring and rolled the roast chicken with lettuce leaves to eat, which was much more refreshing.
Xiaobai saw his movements, and his eyes were a little eager to try.
Huang Shang pushed the lettuce leaf in front of her: "This is a lettuce leaf, it doesn't taste good, but it can relieve greasy, try it." ”
Xiaobai nodded a little embarrassedly, picked up a lettuce leaf, rolled a piece of chicken and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Hmm......"
Xiaobai frowned slightly.
Huang Shang chuckled: "It seems that the girl doesn't like vegetables, so she still eats **!" ”
"Hmm."
This roast chicken weighed almost three catties, and two catties ended up in Xiaobai's stomach. Huang Shang doesn't care, he is now getting closer and closer to the Bigu period, and one meal can last three days without hunger, this catty of chicken and some lettuce leaves is enough for him to last two days.
After the meal, Huang Shang placed a plate of fresh fruit on the stone table, peeled an orange casually, and asked, "What are the girl's plans in the future?" ”
Xiao Bai was accustomed to Huang Shang's ability to take things out of thin air, and when he heard this, he was silent for a moment and said, "I can't think of anything now, I don't know what to do?" ”
"If you don't know, follow me!" Huang Shang said: "I am preparing to enter the world to practice, come with me, and maybe you can meet someone who knows you." Maybe it reminds you of something, too. ”
Xiaobai thought for a moment and nodded: "Thank you so much." ”
"Since you agreed, then tomorrow morning, you will go on the road with me!" Huang Shang said.
Xiaobai hummed lightly: "Where is Engong going?" ”
"When you enter the WTO to practice, how can you go there?" Huang Shang ate the orange petal and said, "Wherever you go, you are where you go." ”
"Engong is really a master of the world." Xiaobai flattered.
"You don't have to always call for kindness." Huang Shang pushed the fruit bowl in front of her: "My name is Huang Shang, you can call me Brother Huang, Huang Shang or Brother Shang." ”
"That'...... I'll call you Brother Huang! "Xiaobaidao.
"Hmm." Huang Shang looked at her and said, "If you can't remember your name, then I'll call you Xiaobai!" ”
"Xiaobai?" Xiaobai looked at the white dress on his body, and couldn't laugh or cry: "This name ......"
"Bai is the surname, of course I can call you Miss Bai, but you call me Brother Huang, in order to be closer, I will call you Xiaobai." Huang Shangdao: "If you don't like it, I can also call you White Girl." ”
Xiaobai hesitated for a moment and said, "Then, Brother Huang still calls me Xiaobai!" ”
Huang Shang smiled slightly: "Actually, I can also call you Sister Bai, what do you think?" ”
Xiao Bai's face turned red, and he said coquettishly: "Brother Huang~~"
Even if you're good-looking, you can't tease me like that!
However, he was teased by Brother Huang...... It doesn't seem to be bad.
's invincible appearance always makes Huang Shang invincible on the road of flirting with women.
The night was getting deeper, and there was no word all night.
Early the next morning, Huang Shang took Xiaobai out of the ginkgo forest and walked in the direction of Yongzhou City.
"Brother Huang, are we going like this?" After walking for a mile, Xiaobai felt that this was not the same as the practice she imagined, and couldn't help but ask, "Can't you fly?" ”
"We are going to the mortal world to cultivate, not to cultivate." Huang Shang said: "To experience all kinds of earthly things as an ordinary person or an ordinary demon, this is cultivation. If it is a cultivator, you can fly to the deep mountains and old forests to find a hidden cave to cultivate. ”
Xiaobai was thoughtful.
"Don't you think it's boring to practice?" Huang Shang asked.
Xiaobai shook his head: "I just think that ordinary people are too bitter in the world." ”
"All living beings are suffering." Huang Shang said: "Even if you become an immortal and become a Buddha, it is just a higher level, and you are still not free. Cultivation is to let go of the paranoia in the heart, not to delusion about desires that are beyond one's ability, which will only make oneself miserable. ”
Xiaobai was silent for a moment and said, "Brother Huang is right, but how many people in the world do it?" ”
"Instead of delusional desires beyond the scope of one's ability, it is better to work hard and constantly improve oneself, and when you reach that realm, there will be naturally." Huang Shang raised his hand to pick a ginkgo leaf: "Just like ordinary people can only pick a ginkgo leaf, but if you reach my realm, you can easily subdue the flying eagle in the air." ”
As the words fell, Huang Shang soared into the air, and flew to a height of thousands of meters in an instant. In the next second, it had fallen to the ground again, and there was a huge eagle in his hand.
The moment he saw the eagle, Xiaobai's face turned pale, and he always felt very disgusted, and even a trace of fear from instinct.
Huang Shang pinched the eagle's wings, like pinching a chicken, "Look, what you want, you must always be within your ability, beyond the scope of your ability, either work hard or let go of obsession, this is the way to solve suffering." ”
Throwing the eagle into the air, the bewildered eagle hurriedly flipped its wings and quickly fled from this terrible place.
Huang Shang turned his head to look at Xiao Bai and asked, "If it were you, what would you choose?" ”
Xiaobai bowed his head in contemplation.
"Think about it slowly!" Huang Shang put the ginkgo biloba to his mouth and gently blew a tune, the style of the song is fresh and cheerful, if Xiaobai is a modern person, he must have heard this tune, it is "Bai Suzhen under the Qingcheng Mountain" that was once popular in China.
Xiaobai was dumbfounded.
Not only her, but also the animals in the ginkgo grove listened to the sound of the leaves, and they were fascinated by it.
After blowing the song, Xiaobai came back to his senses and clapped his hands vigorously: "Brother Huang blows so well." ”
"It's just a tune." Huang Shang smiled slightly: "As long as you are good at discovering, you can find happiness in the ordinary." ”
"Hmm." Xiaobai nodded repeatedly, picked a leaf casually, and tried to blow it, but all he could do was 'poof' sound.
(???? ω????)
Huang Shang chuckled: "Not everyone can find fun. ”
(???? ˇ?? ˇ????)
……
Just when the two of them walked out of the ginkgo forest and saw Yongzhou City in front of them, a group of soldiers suddenly surrounded them, looking at Xiaobai's eyes as if they had earned military merits: "Assassin!" Sure enough, it's you! ”
Xiaobai was shocked and scared: "What are you talking about!?" ”
"Don't quibble, Assassin, don't be caught yet! Otherwise, don't blame us for being polite! The soldiers showed off their weapons.
"Brother Huang!" Xiaobai hid behind Huang Shang.
"Huh? And accomplices? Take it all together! ”
Facing the soldiers with full body armor and sharp blades, Huang Shang shot out with a palm.
With a dragon roar, a golden dragon soared into the air, blasting all the soldiers away.
Xiaobai was stunned.
The dragon dissipated, and the soldiers had fallen dozens of meters away, groaning in pain.
