Chapter 14: A touch of sadness
The parrot was originally a talker, and when he heard Tan Yushu's command, he was overjoyed, and immediately said:
"It turns out that Daxian is very boring, then good, I'll tell you about me, and make sure you listen to it with relish!"
Tan Yushu touched the parrot's head with a branch: "Say, talk about your grievances and hatred with the vulture." ”
"Alas, that's a long story!"
The parrot cleared its throat and said:
"I have two brothers, and there is an honest brother above me. My brother's wife, my sister-in-law Lian'er, has some water-based poplars, and she is not clean with a magpie. In order to be together for a long time, this dog man and woman actually poisoned my eldest brother. In a fit of rage, I killed the dog man and woman to avenge my eldest brother......"
How is this plot familiar?
Tan Yushu asked, "Hey, your big parrot brother, is it called parrot?" Your name is Parrot Two, isn't it? ”
The parrot was taken aback, and said in amazement: "You also know this, it is indeed a sacred tree, a great immortal!" ”
Mom, think I haven't read the story of Wu Dalang and Pan Jinlian?
Tan Yushu felt bored and said, "Then in the future, I will call you Parrot Er." Parrot two, tell me about the vulture, why did it deal with you? ”
"The vulture is the fast catcher of the bird country, the master of Ouchi. I killed the dog man and woman, so the vultures came to capture me. Parrot II said.
"Okay, I know your story, don't tell it." Tan Yushu thought for a while, and then said:
"Well, tell me something about this world. For example...... Who is the boss in this world, how powerful is it, and so on. ”
Tan Yushu has almost no understanding of this otherworld.
His current gaze can't see the overall situation of Mopan Village.
Therefore, Tan Yushu hopes that through this parrot, he can learn more about the situation in this other world.
The parrot nodded hurriedly and said, "This world ...... Daisen, can you loosen the branch from my neck? It's hard for me to speak. ”
Tan Yushu let go of Parrot Er's neck.
The parrot moved its neck, seemed much more relaxed, and continued:
"The world is very big, I flew for three days and three nights, and I couldn't fly to the end. But to talk about the boss, there are many. Among the human race, the emperor is the largest; Among the beasts, the lion is the largest; Among the birds, I am the biggest ......"
Tan Yushu put the branch on the neck of Parrot Er again.
Parrot Er shrank his head in fright, and hurriedly smiled: "Daxian don't strangle my neck, I'm joking...... In the bird family, in fact, the Phoenix Divine Bird is the largest, but it rarely appears. ”
Tan Yushu thought for a while and asked, "Are there any immortals here, the kind of people who can fly around?" ”
"Yes, there are a lot of them. However, they are all in the Ten Thousand Immortal Mountains of the Immortal Race, not on the territory of the Human Race. By the way, Daxian, you are just a tree, why do you care about the affairs of the human race and the immortal race? The parrot said.
"Don't worry about it, let me ask you, where is Wanxian Mountain?" Tan Yushu asked.
"I don't know, I've just heard of it." Parrot Er didn't brag this time, and said honestly.
Tan Yushu was silent.
Parrot Er asked, "Great Immortal, why don't I go and ask you where this Ten Thousand Immortal Mountain is?" ”
Tan Yushu sneered: "You kid, you want to trick me into letting you go?" ”
Parrot Er hurriedly shook his head: "Don't dare, don't dare, I'm just a stupid bird, how dare I deceive Daxian?" Even if I want to lie to you, I can't hide the great immortal's eyes like electricity. ”
Tan Yushu thought about it, suddenly let go of Parrot Er completely, and said, "Forget it, I'll let you go." A parrot that can only brag about it, it's not much use to stay. ”
Keeping Parrot Er can relieve boredom, but it delays Tan Yushu's cultivation.
So Tan Yushu decided to let it go, so as not to lose his mind as a plaything.
The second parrot was overjoyed, flapped his wings and flew into the sky, circled twice over the canopy, laughed and flew into the distance, and said: "Your crooked neck tree is interesting, my second parrot left first, and I will come to you for tea when I have time!" ”
"If you lift my crooked neck again, and then fall into my hands, I will strangle your neck!" Tan Yushu scolded.
However, Talker Two has gone far away, turning into a small black dot and disappearing into the sky.
Tan Yushu hung down a branch and touched the nodule on his crooked neck, feeling a little sad in his heart......
In his previous life, he was also a handsome guy and a beautiful man.
But being reborn in the other world turned out to be a crooked neck!
Alas, when will we be able to transform into a human being and get rid of the ugly form of this crooked-necked elm pimple?
Suddenly there was the sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and it seemed that many horses were galloping.
Tan Yushu looked up and saw seven or eight tall horses galloping over, bringing up a cloud of dust.
Immediately they were all fierce bandits, with bright swords and guns.
These bandits had robbed Mopan Village last time, and Tan Yushu recognized them.
Moreover, among this group of bandits, there is another guy tied to a horse, it is Li Jia, the catcher in the county office!
This unlucky Li Jia, who didn't know what was going on, fell into the hands of the robbers.
The horses' hooves rattled, and in the blink of an eye, a group of bandits ran under the crooked-neck tree.
They all reined in their horses and jumped down.
One of the bandits at the head was a bearded one-eyed dragon with a long narrow scar on his face, which looked particularly fierce.
"Tie Li Jia to this crooked neck tree for me, and I will open his intestines with my own hands to pay tribute to our dead brother!" The bandit leader shouted.
Li Jia was immediately torn off his horse and tied to the trunk of a tree.
At this moment, Li Jia had long since lost the arrogance of the previous few days, his face was pale and trembling, and he trembled and said, "The king spares his life, your brother...... I didn't kill it, I really didn't! ”
"Fart!"
The bandit leader gave Li Jia a slap and scolded: "The villagers of Mopan Village, last time we built a road in Taisui Mountain, they all said that you did it!" ”
Li Jia wanted to cry without tears, and shouted: "The king listens to me...... When I came here that day, your brother was dead, and I didn't do it! At that time, I wanted to pretend to be a coercion and cheat twenty taels of silver, so I deceived the villagers and said that I killed your brother. I really didn't kill your brother......"
The bandit leader slashed over with an ear scraper again: "Bastard, my brother died here, you didn't kill it, could it be this crooked-necked tree that killed it?" ”
Li Jia was beaten and his mouth was bleeding, crying and shouting: "I don't know, I didn't kill it anyway...... Maybe it's really this crooked neck trunk, I've heard that some trees can kill people when they become fine......"
The bandit leader glared and shouted, "Okay, in that case, I'll kill you first, and then cut down this crooked neck tree." This is called preferring to kill mistakes and not letting them go! ”
"The king is wise!"
The other little bandits patted the ass together.
Tan Yushu couldn't help it, and said leisurely: "Wise fart, I think I'm also a fool!" ”
Originally, Tan Yushu was going to watch the excitement.
Anyway, Li Jia is not a good person, if he dies, he will die, don't be nosy.
But now, this bandit leader is actually going to cut himself, and Tan Yushu naturally can't let anyone slaughter him.
The bandit leader was stunned, looked left and right, and shouted: "Who is talking?" ”
Tan Yushu's voice came from the hole in the tree, fluttering, ethereal and long, and it was difficult for ordinary people to distinguish the source of the sound.
The little bandits changed color, and they all showed their weapons and cursed: "Who is talking, get out of here!" ”
Tan Yushu sighed and said, "Alas, I said you are all fools, I am right in front of your eyes, you can't see ......"
The bandit leader was stunned for a moment, and slapped Li Jia's face again: "Bastard, it turned out to be you!" ”
Syllable!
A few teeth flew out of Li Jia's mouth, and he cried: "Wang, it wasn't me who spoke just now!" ”
