Chapter 126: Night Talk
The three madmen hurried all the way, and with their previous memories, it was already midnight when they came to this temple. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"I just said don't worry, don't worry, look, this big night, there must be a lock on the door, and I have already slept a long time ago!" King Yama sat on the shoulders of the three madmen and complained, as if he didn't want the three madmen to go up now.
"Who said they all slept? The light was on. Looking at the flickering candle flame not far away, the three madmen retorted.
"Don't be too happy too soon, you have to see everything!" King Yama was not in a hurry to refute immediately, and still said leisurely, but there was indeed something else in his words.
After hurrying all day, the three madmen felt tired all over, and they were too lazy to argue with the king of Yama, and they couldn't understand the deep meaning of these words, so they paused and continued to rush forward.
When they came to the mountain gate, it was already more than three o'clock in the morning, and it was the time when the people slept most soundly, and the three madmen saw that the door was ajar, and there was moonlight shining through the cracks, as if someone had deliberately left a door for them.
"Look, what did I say?" The three madmen pushed open the half-hidden door and said with a bit of pride.
"Why are you so sure, in case the world is peaceful, people don't need this door lock!" The king of Yama has some meaning of picking bones in eggs.
"Humph! You! It's just a hard mouth. The three madmen turned around and said with the door, but he didn't forget to glance at the door again to see if there was a lock behind the door.
It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, I really feel a little uncomfortable when I look at it, I just feel that my face is hot, and there is really no lock for this door.
"Stinky boy, I'm right!" King Yama glanced at him and said with some smugness.
"Little brat, what's wrong, hurry up and follow me." The three madmen said angrily.
"I don't know, who is that little brat."
"Do you need to say anything more when you look like this?"
"I'm too lazy to change back......"
……
The two of them are fighting each other like this, and they really have a feeling of being four people in the moonlight.
The Taoist temple is very quiet, and there is only the sound of insects along the way, although it is silent, but the quiet room not far away is a lamp, where it is swaying, it seems that it is about to go out, but this is a signal, telling the three madmen that there are still people who have not slept.
The three madmen remembered this quiet room, which was the room of Master Jingxuan, and when they remembered that he didn't bother the master less last time, and this time he came empty-handed, standing outside the quiet room, the three madmen couldn't help but blush, and felt a little embarrassed.
"You're here." The old man's faint voice came from the quiet room, but the three madmen did not feel abrupt, but felt a little kind.
"I'm so sorry to bother you so late!" The three madmen stood outside the door and whispered, for fear that the noise would be too loud and they would quarrel with the two senior brothers.
"Haha, it's okay, I've been waiting for you......" Old Man Jingxuan said kindly.
"You already knew I was coming?" The three madmen said in surprise.
"Needless to say! It's not obvious. King Yama said very calmly.
The three madmen glanced at this nonsense king of Yama and stood respectfully outside the door of the quiet room, waiting for the old man to speak.
"I don't know if I knew it earlier, let's hurry up and come inside when it's cold outside." The old man Jingxuan was still so kind in his words, as if he was the first sun, and he was very warm and comfortable in the hearts of the three madmen.
Listening to what the old man Jing Xuan said, the three madmen did not stick to those routines, gently pushed open the door of the quiet room, turned around and took two steps back and slowly closed the door.
In the room, the old man Jing Xuan sat at the table with his hands sealed, and his thin bones were cut by the light under the candle flame to become much thinner, like a clay statue, and the candle flame on the table met these three madmen like a little beast afraid of life, and began to dodge back and forth, as if he was about to jump out of the lamp.
"Sit down!" Old Man Jing Xuan smiled and pointed to the stool in front of him and said.
"Hmm!" The three madmen answered, took a few steps forward, and sat down on the stool.
"Please take a seat, too!" Old Man Jing Xuan looked at the three madmen and said politely again.
The three madmen didn't look back, knowing that the old man Jingxuan must be talking to the king of Yama, after all, such a psychic old Taoist, if he couldn't even see the king of Yama next to the three madmen, it would really be a little too much.
"I haven't repaid the elder for saving my life last time, and this time I came uninvited, it's really ......," the three madmen paused and said.
"It's okay child, it's already a great fate for you and me to see each other, why bother to see each other like this." Old man Jing Xuan said with a smile, he liked the polite and very likable kid in front of him very much.
"Then the junior will have something to say." The three madmen are not pedantic people, so they go straight to the topic.
"Ask whatever you want!" Old man Jing Xuan said with a smile.
"Stinky boy, hurry up and ask, there will be no such shop in this village after this village!" King Yama said urgically.
"You have known for a long time that I was coming, so you must have known what happened in Wang Zhuang." The three madmen asked.
"Hmm......" Old Man Jingxuan replied after a moment of silence.
"I want to ask the master, can you know where my parents have gone?" The three madmen nodded when they saw the old man Jing Xuan, and hurriedly asked.
"Don't you already have an answer to where you went?" Old Man Jing Xuan asked rhetorically.
"I only know where to go southwest, but I don't know where it will be!" The three madmen hurriedly explained.
"Where in this life do people know exactly where they are going and what they are doing?" Old man Jing Xuan said with a smile.
"But didn't you already know I was coming?" The three madmen continued to ask.
"I just had a strong feeling telling me that I was waiting for someone, but I didn't know that this person was you, and that was when you stood in front of me I knew that I was waiting for you." Old Man Jing Xuan said sincerely.
"You must know, otherwise how would you know what happened to our Zhuangzi, did my parents and brother have any accidents, don't you want to tell me if you hide it so much." The third madman was a little excited, he felt that Master Jingxuan had been arguing with him, just like the seventh uncle.
After the three madmen finished speaking, the old man Jing Xuan did not speak, and it seemed that he had acquiesced to such a fact.
"No, no, my parents must be fine, they are still waiting for me to come and rescue them." Seeing that the old man did not speak, the three madmen were a little anxious, and began to talk to themselves.
"They're all good, it's just that I don't know where they are, old man, so I don't know what to tell you." Old Man Jingxuan is still so kind.
"But you know I'm coming, how can you not know that my parents are there?" The three madmen asked.
"Where can someone outside the square casually say something they don't know, this will leak the secret of the heavens......" Old Man Jingxuan said with a smile.
"But......" As soon as the three madmen spoke, the violently beating fire was extinguished, as if the little beast had escaped from the bondage of the lamp.
"The stinky boy lights are out, ask again tomorrow!" At this time, the king of Yama finally spoke.
The three madmen did not speak, and were silent in this darkness, and the darkness that suddenly enveloped him was like a basin of cold water poured on his head, and he suddenly came to his senses.
