Outside the main gate of Dugu Immortal Mansion

Four red carved lacquer gates, two main doors in the middle, one side door next to each side, and a gold-inlaid plaque hanging directly above the main entrance,

It reads: "Dugu Immortal Mansion"

Four words, there is also a royal seal in the lower right corner, which is the imperial seal of the former Virgin of Pilgrimage.

In front of the four carved red columns of wood, each carved with colorful painting:

A pair of blue and white holy fairy peacocks, and a pair of golden and jade holy fairy unicorns.

This style is almost half of the palace gate of the Holy Immortal Palace, after all, this Dugu Immortal Mansion was given by the former pilgrim mother, and it is extraordinary!

I saw two fairy daughters walking out with oil-paper umbrellas in the distance through the crack in the door.

There was talk and laughter, and the laughter was like a wind chime, gradually getting closer.

It turned out to be the two fairy daughters in charge of the fairy mansion, one called Red Candle and the other called Xiaowen.

The two walked out of the door and took their umbrellas.

Xiaowen took the umbrella: "It's raining so hard today!"

Red Candle replied: "Not really! I don't know when the second son will come back today! ”

(These two sons are the Dugu Xingjia in the Dugu clan, who just became the immortal official of the immortal clan a few years ago,

It is specially responsible for recording the major historical facts in the Holy Immortal Palace.

This seat has been vacant for more than ten years since the handover of the former Virgin and the current Virgin for some special reasons, but recently it has been suddenly reopened.

After many considerations and recommendations, Dugu Xingjia was finally selected, and this Xingjia is the latest generation of the Dugu clan.

There are still more than two years before the crown, and he is young, but he is talented and appreciated. ）

As she was talking, Xiaowen hurriedly beckoned to the guards on both sides: "You two, you don't have to guard today!"

Our national teacher and immortal master said that the rainstorm is forgiving you for fear of catching a cold, and there is nothing big in the house, so you should rest first! ”

The two guards hurriedly thanked: "Thank you for the grace of the Immortal Master!" ”

And he rested.

(This national teacher immortal master has a great background, he is the immortal clan as the national teacher,

Dugu Huanyu, known as the most beautiful man in the world.

He is also the godfather of the Holy Woman. Xingjia is his nephew. ）

No one noticed that in the distance, there was an old beggar who was limping on crutches in the rain.

Red Candle was very worried and said: "It's raining so hard, and our second son is still working outside on official business.

What if you catch a cold! ”

Xiaowen sneered and said: "What are you worried about, our immortal official is the new official who has taken office with three fires, and his passion is high!"

Now I must be discussing business with the imperial painter in the lacquer carving mansion, and I can't get rainy, what are you afraid of?

Besides, the people of our Dugu Immortal Mansion are all hard enough, and it's nothing if it's really raining.

It's just that our national teacher and immortal master are kind-hearted, so they let those two Xiao Si go to rest first. ”

Red Candle thought about it carefully: "It's true, but this gatekeeper is gone, who will open the door when the second son comes back in a while?" ”

"Are you stupid, why don't we just leave a crack in the door?"

As he was talking, he suddenly heard a trembling voice: "Two little fairy daughters..."

The two looked back,

I saw a man in rags, with gray hair, and a wooden cane,

A beggar old man with a broken bowl, his back was so badly lumped that his whole body was wet.

Red Candle couldn't bear it for a moment when she saw it, so she snatched the umbrella in Xiaowen's hand and walked down the steps quickly.

Walking into the rain, holding an umbrella for him, he said, "Old man, if you have anything to say, let's go up and say, so that we can avoid the rain!"

"Thank you, girl!"

helped him up the steps, but at this time, Xiaowen looked at him vigorously, thinking in her heart:

(This old beggar must be here to make some money!) ）

Then he asked: "Excuse me, do you have anything to do with our Dugu Immortal Mansion?" ”

The old man smiled and asked, "May I ask if Dugu Xingjia Gongzi lives here, right?" ”

As soon as Xiaowen heard the name of her second son-in-law, she affirmed his intention, and secretly thought:

(Hmph, if it's not surprising, it must be that I listened to my fairy officials doing good deeds in Su Ri, and I have only been in office for less than three months.)

Half of the two months' Yulu were taken to help the poor, and it was not enough to intercept them halfway.

There is still someone who comes to the door today, and I am not worth it for the second son! ）

Thinking of this, I decided to make it difficult for him.

Then he asked him again: "There are several big-character plaques hanging here in this Dugu Immortal Mansion, aren't you knowingly asking!"

Just tell me what the matter is looking for my immortal official! ”

The old man smiled and said, "Ah, the old man has something important to ask the son to come out and meet the old man." ”

When Xiaowen heard this, she completely confirmed her conjecture and thought:

(Humph!) How can my immortal official be a broken beggar who you say you will see when you see it, and today I will come to vent the evil anger for my immortal official! ）

So he took two steps forward, copied his hands and said, "My immortal official is not a guest today, please rest!" ”

When the old man heard this battle, he was not convinced, and he straightened his back with his crutches and stepped forward and said, "You,

You little fairy daughter, how can you be so unreasonable! I'm here today, I still have to see your immortal official!"

Seeing this, Red Candle was in a dilemma, and when Xiaowen saw him say this, she said angrily: "That's done!"

You are waiting here for my fairy official to eat and drink, when do you want to go out and come to see you again!"

The old man was angry for a while: "You, you..."

Seeing this, Red Candle had to step in and hurriedly pull Xiaowen: "Xiaowen, don't be unreasonable!"

Xiaowen was very unconvinced: "Red Candle, where are you!"

"You're enough, Xiaowen, how does the fairy lord teach us on weekdays, to be kind to others!

Allow me to say a few words to the old man alone!"

Xiaowen snatched the umbrella and walked to the side very unconvinced: "Hmph! ”

Red Candle helped the old man and said, "Old uncle, Xiaowen, this girl has always been a rectum, and she is anxious, and she bumps into you when she speaks!"

But her heart is not bad, I will accompany you for her, and I hope you don't go to your heart!"

The old man instantly turned angry and smiled: "Actually, it's nothing, the old man is also in a hurry and out of proportion, and he still looks at the girl Haihan!"

"Uncle, where is this, but I won't tell you, my second son is really not at home today......"

Before the words fell, Xiaowen shouted very impatiently on the side: "Red Candle, you are still finished,

What do you have to talk to a beggar old man, you forgot that we still have to talk back to the national teacher and immortal master!

If it is delayed, can you afford it? Hurry up and send him a few taels of silver!"

Red Candle said angrily, "Xiaowen..."

Before he finished speaking, the beggar old man hurriedly asked, "The national teacher immortal master you are talking about is Dugu Huanyu?"

If the prince of Xingjia is not there, please ask the girl to go and make an accommodating gesture to your fairy master,

Your second son doesn't recognize me, but this phantom has seen me!"

Xiaowen was even more angry and funny when she heard it: "Yo, old man, your tone is really not small!" I'm going to say, where did you get so bold?

Others only dare to stop my Xianguan'er's car halfway to pass the porridge money, and you are the first to run to the house in person.

It turned out that I had prepared enough homework and checked all the family backgrounds of our Dugu Immortal Mansion!

Even the name of my family's national teacher is clear, and the names of my family's immortal master and immortal official are also called by you beggar old man!?

What else do you say that my immortal lord recognizes you, why don't I know when my immortal lord will have such a broken relative or old friend as you! ”

crackled and said a lot like this, and Red Candle really couldn't listen to it: "Xiaowen, what's wrong with you today?"

Such a heavy rain is not enough to bring down your anger! I can't say a few words, let myself be idle!"

Xiaowen just rolled her eyes and ignored her.

Red Candle apologized to the old man again and again: "Old uncle, it's really rude today,

It's because my family is not strict with discipline, and when I go back, I will definitely explain to the fairy lord that she will be punished well!"

The old man hurriedly said, "Eh, girl, why bother, I understand that the girl is just talking angry, and the old man won't take it to heart!"

As he was talking, he saw the red candle take out a few taels of silver from his pocket and stuff it for him, and the old man hurriedly refused: "Eh,

What is the girl doing, the old man is not here to ask for money, the old man really has important things..."

Red Candle hurriedly said: "Old uncle, I know you are not here to ask for money, it is really my sin to let you suffer such a big grievance when you come all the way today.

These pieces of silver are regarded as my filial piety to your old man, and I usually don't give you much if I don't go out. ”

"No, girl, I'm not here to ask for money!"

The red candle was forced into him and said, "I know, uncle, you can take it, I know that you are here for my second son!"

But it's really not a coincidence today, my son-in-law is really not at home, and my fairy master has a guest today,

It's not convenient to see you again, you think it's good, you can come again in a few days, and you can see you in a little bit! ”

"Girl, don't be so troublesome, in fact, the old man is just ......"

As she spoke, she seemed to want to find something out of her bag, and Xiaowen became even more impatient: "Red candle,

If you don't leave, if you don't leave, I'll leave by myself and leave you alone in the rain with this old man!"

"Xiaowen, you wait, it'll be fine soon!"

Xiaowen didn't want to hear her say a word more, so she walked up and dragged her away.

Red Candle wanted to break away but couldn't resist her: "Oh, Xiaowen, you let go of me!" You let go..."

As he spoke, he looked back at the old man, and the old man hurriedly said, "Hey, girl, there is, there's something..."

Before she finished speaking, Xiaowen had already dragged her into the door.

The door closed with a "snap".

"Hey, girl... This, how good is this! ”

Then I saw that he was holding something wrapped in old paper in his hand, and I don't know what it contained.

He walked to the door and fumbled for a long time, finally tucking it into the small crack in the door.

turned around, looked at the few taels of silver in his hand, and sighed: "Hey~"

Shaking his head, he limped down the stairs with a cane again, and slowly disappeared into the rain.

As quietly as he came......
