"Where are you going?" Bullnose asked me. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Looking for someone, what about you?"

"With you!"

“……”

"Why do you want to stay with me?"

"I don't know where to go when I'm idle, so I just go with you, and it's not interesting to play alone." He said casually.

“……”

I talked to that bull-nosed gossip for a couple of words, and I knew each other. I asked him about the white-clothed monk. He told me that he knew all the famous monks in the temples of the world, and he had not heard anyone say that there were monks wearing white robes. It must have been a small temple. I was skeptical of his words.

"Then tell me about the temples in the world and the monks in the temples?" I glanced at him and deliberately made a fuss.

"This is a lot, first of all, the White Horse Temple, located between the north bank of the Luo River at the southern foot of the mountain, the host of the master, is my old friend. The second is Famen Temple, in Fufeng County, where there are Buddhist relics. Third, it is the Jokhang Temple, where the host of the hanging master we often learn martial arts together. Of course, there are also Shaolin Temple, Taer Temple, Guandi Temple, and so on......"

Seeing his endless talk, I felt that he should have some knowledge. However, there is also too much exaggeration. He's a little hairy kid who is not a few years older than me, and the presiding officers of these temples have dealings with him? It's when you hear it.

I wasn't in the mood to hear him continue. As we passed through a village together, we saw a mother leading a son of six or seven years old. The mother coaxed her son as she walked. The little one is very cute. I think of when I was a child, probably like this child, growing up happily under the warm care of my mother. However, with that sudden turn of events, everything was gone. My heart was already scarred and numb from pain.

After a day's walk, we came to a small village again. We decided to live in this village, and found a farmer surnamed Liu, the landlord was an old man in his fifties, who spoke amiably and always kept a smile on his face, but his clothes were a little sloppy. Cownose gave it some money, which was kind of renting for a few nights. Like a normal farmhouse, the house has a large courtyard surrounded by a wall made of stones. I walked into the house and it was spacious, bright, neat and clean, nice. A shrine enshrined on the west side of the house, and a table with various fruits and sweets and other offerings. The tablet on the shrine reads "The Position of the Explorer Arhat". A semi-circular circle was drawn between the perimeter of the table and the wall, and I don't know what to do.

Niu Nose walked over, clasped his hands together at the shrine, performed a Buddha salute, and recited the phrase "Amitabha Buddha" in his mouth.

"Aren't you a Taoist?" I asked him disdainfully.

He smiled slightly and said: "This is called following the customs of the locals, which temple to enter, and which Buddha to worship." ”

I'm speechless.

However, it is really strange that this family does not offer Bodhisattvas, but only Arhats. After a day's walking, I was tired, ate some food, lay down on the hot kang with the ox's nose, and fell asleep leisurely.

Lately, there have always been some strange encounters and strange dreams. This time, I dreamed again that I was in a dark place, and I was stuck there and couldn't move. I heard someone say to me:

"Hmph, you're the reincarnation of the Floating Spirit Immortal? Hurry up and marry my daughter, or I'll kill you!. The voice seemed to echo in the empty valley, a little cautious.

I thought I might have been hit by a ghost hitting a wall or something, so I couldn't move. According to the village when I was a child, I bit my finger hard. Blood dripped out. I can really move. However, the situation next got even more out of control. I ran for my life in the dark tunnels, and as the blood on my fingers fell, more and more goblins sniffed blood.

I was trapped in the dark tunnels by hundreds of goblins, all of them terrifying. At this time, the voice floated in the air again.

"How? Floating Immortals, have you thought about it? Be the son-in-law of my ghost king. With my power in the ghost world, and with my daughter's appearance, you kid can be regarded as picking up a big bargain. ”

"I'm not a floating spirit immortal, I'm Ling Fei, and I already have a fiancée." I remembered Xiaolian.

"Haha, it's okay if you don't marry my daughter. Then you don't want to go back alive. He put the "don't want to go back alive" tone, emphasizing the consequences of my inaction.

I had no choice but to say yes first. When you wake up from a dream, look for Niu Bi and discuss help.

The next day, early in the morning, I woke up. told this dream to Niu Nose, Niu Nose didn't say anything, but it could be seen that his expression was solemn.

After breakfast, he said that there was something to do, go out for half a day, and come back before the evening. I scolded in my heart: "I'll go, it won't be because I'm afraid to escape." On second thought, it was just a dream. It doesn't have to happen.

After he left, I felt bored and lay alone thinking about this and that dream. That ghost king called me the Floating Spirit Immortal, who is the Floating Spirit Immortal? If the dream is true, why did the ghost king force me to marry a poor rural boy with no father and mother, he is the ghost king, presumably his daughter must look like a demon, no, it should be more terrible than the evil ghost, otherwise he would not be able to marry, forcibly forced to marry, what will the woman who is not even willing to marry the demon and the monster want to marry? I'm alone and thinking nonsense.

In the dark, there was a voice in my ears. "If you are in trouble, you must take refuge in this circle next to you."

"Who, who, who's talking." I looked around. No one.

I subconsciously remembered the other circle next to the shrine. Is there a master to point out?! Hurriedly got up and knelt on the futon in front of the shrine and kowtowed. I silently said in my heart thank the gods for saving me, thank you to the gods for saving me.

It's dark, and Niu Nose hasn't come back yet, I'm afraid it won't come back. I sat alone on the kang, my body trembling, because I felt more and more that the marriage I had said in my dream was very likely to happen. The lights were dim, and my mood was dim.

Suddenly, I found that outside the window, at some point, a red light lit up, as if there were a lot of red lanterns hanging outside, and the sound of suona came intermittently in my ears. It seems that the ghost king is really here.

There was a creak, and the door was pushed open. A woman walked in, and before she saw anyone, she shouted, "Oh, is the bridegroom at home?" ”

I didn't answer. She walked in. This woman is wearing red makeup, holding a red handkerchief, with exaggerated red lips on her mouth and red on her cheeks, which looks like a matchmaker. But she still has some human form, and the people who follow her almost scared me to death.

They have a bull's head, a horse's face and a toad face, all of them are human bodies, and they are followed by a few retinues, each of which is extremely ugly.

Seeing this, I quickly ran into the circle near the shrine. When the matchmaker saw it, I hid and laughed, "Oh, the groom is still shy, haha...... You see you're still hiding, so put on your clothes so that you can get married. The bride can't wait, haha......"

With that, he walked towards me. When she was about to step into the circle, she felt like she had been hit by something, and her body flew backwards, crashing into the monsters that came with her. A group of people fell to the ground in response.

The matchmaker screamed in pain and told the others, "Hurry up and get him for me." ”

At this moment, five or six of the attendants stepped forward, some of them were kicked and flapped by something, and they fell to the ground one after another, and none of them could come close. At this time, a man dressed in black walked in, this person was burly and handsome, but his gestures were a little serious, which made people shudder.

When the people around him saw him come in, they dodged left and right, bowed their heads and shouted, "Great King." He looked at his subordinates, snorted, and walked straight up to me and said, "Don't toast or eat, you kid." ”

"I won't marry your daughter, what I like is Xiaolian." I whispered.

"Today, you're either going to marry my daughter, or you know." He threatened me.

When he saw that I did not answer, he came to me. Just like a circle, but it seems to be blocked by something, and it can't be stepped into.

"Old thing" The ghost king said silently, and then with a wave of his hand, he knocked over the offering table and walked into the circle.

At this time, the landlord Lao Han somehow got out from behind the shrine, jumped out of the window in a puff of smoke, and then his voice came: "Floating Spirit Immortal, I can only help you with this, and then it depends on your destiny." "It's gone.

When the ghost king heard his words, he sneered and said, "Dog thing, run for your life quickly." With that, he grabbed me by the collar and suspended me in mid-air. Let me choose whether to marry or die, and just then, I heard the sound of a fight outside the house.
