Chapter 290: Wandering to the End of the World
Xiong Lei's master said, "Yes, it was during the Zheng Dynasty......
"Zheng Dynasty? I've never heard of it......" Xiong Lei muttered......
"In the more than 5,000 years of history of our country, there have been many small countries, or dependent states...... There are many places, and a city is a country...... The Zheng Dynasty is located in the barren land of the south, and few people know that there are only a few hundred households in the whole country......"
After that, while eating the breakfast that Xiong Lei bought, Xiong Lei's master told Xiong Lei and Tong Xiaoyu about an incident that happened in the Zheng Dynasty at that time about the descendants of Chi Yan......
According to incomplete records, the Zheng Dynasty at that time was about the same time as our Qin Dynasty......
As we all know, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the whole society was in turmoil, and as the saying goes, demons come out of troubled times. At that time, although Zheng Guo was only a small country, it was still affected by the changes, and the people began to become restless......
At that time, there was a Taoist who traveled to various countries, and it was said that he was a god with a strong Taoism......
This man wears a white robe all day long, and often carries a large yellow buffalo by his side......
One day, when the Andon Daoist arrived in Zhengguo, he saw a little boy crying on the side of the road......
The little boy looked to be only ten years old, dressed in brightly colored clothes, and looked very sophisticated......
An Dengdao people felt that this little boy should not be from a small household, but seemed to be separated from his family......
An Dengdao man stepped forward and said, "What's wrong with you?" ”
The little boy who was crouching on the side of the road, holding his knees and crying, heard that someone was talking to him, so he looked up to see ......
The little boy found that there was a Taoist dressed in white standing in front of him, the little boy wiped the tears on his face, and said: "My name is Guo Donggao, I am from Nanyue, and my father is a merchant in Nanyue...... But who knows, on the way, I met robbers, my father and two brothers died, and the robbers robbed our family of gold and silver, and the people fled in all directions, leaving only my own ......."
Seeing that this little boy looked very clever and his words were also very clever, Master An Deng said to him, "Then do you have any other relatives?" ”
The little boy shook his head and said, "I don't know anymore, I heard my father say that I have an uncle in Zheng Guo, but I haven't been in touch for many years, and I don't know if they have moved, and if they can still find ......."
An Deng Daoist said, "In that case, would you like to follow me?" ”
When the little boy heard this, he hurriedly knelt down in front of the Daoist and said, "If the Taoist does not dislike me, I am willing to be an apprentice to the Taoist chief, or a small servant, before and after the saddle, willing to serve, I just hope that the Taoist can give me food ......"
Seeing that this little boy was so good at talking, he smiled and said, "Okay! Then I'll take you as an apprentice! ”
The little boy knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the Ann Dan Daoist again and again......
An Dengdao said: "Your name is Guo Donggao? ”
The little boy nodded......
"This name is a bit tongue-in-cheek, since you have become my apprentice, then I will change your name......"
The little boy said, "Please give the name ...... Master."
"The End of the World...... Shore...... Let's call you Yazi! ”
The little boy blinked and looked at An Dengdao and said, "Why did Master give the apprentice this name?" Anything to say? ”
An Dengdao shook his sleeves, helped the little boy up, and said, "When you grow up, you will slowly understand......"
The little boy nodded as if he didn't understand, and followed the side of An Dan Dao......
An Dan Daoist said, "You're already hungry, aren't you?" Haven't eaten in a few days? ”
The little boy said with some grievances: "Last time I ate...... It must have been seven or eight days ago, but two days ago I picked up a cake on the side of the road and ate it...... It's a little dirty, but it's barely enough to fill your stomach......"
"In that case, let's go to dinner now...... said the man of Andon......
An Dengdao took Yazi to a noodle restaurant, asked for two bowls of wontons, and ate them with Xiao Yazi......
But who knows, the Andang Daoist only ate two bites of a bowl of wontons, and the teenage Xiao Yazi had already drunk the soup, and was looking at the Andang Daoist with blank eyes......
An Dengdao said with a smile: "It seems that you are indeed hungry, do you want another bowl?" ”
Xiao Yazi nodded embarrassedly......
An Dengdao said, "Man, another bowl of wontons!" ”
"Okay!"
Another bowl of wontons was served, and An Dengdao asked, "How old are you this year?" ”
Xiao Yazi said while holding the wonton in his mouth: "I'm already eleven this year!" ”
It didn't take long for Xiao Yazi to eat more than ten bowls of wontons, and the empty bowls next to him had been stacked up in a thick stack @
An Dengdao said, "Yazi, haven't you eaten yet?" ”
Xiao Yazi looked at An Deng Daoren and said, "Master, can't I eat it?" ”
An Dengdao people sighed when they heard this, and said: "If you don't eat enough, just eat for a while, it's not that you can't afford to eat, but I'm afraid of you, I haven't eaten for a long time, and I have eaten so much at one time that I have broken my body......"
Xiao Yazi blinked, pursed his lips, and said, "I ate a lot when I was at home, and now I don't eat half of what I eat at home?!" ……”
An Dengdao looked at Yazi in front of him and said, "Then you can continue to eat......
The shopkeeper next to him was also dumbfounded, and said again and again: "Little brother, what a good amount of food!" ”
The shopkeeper said that Wen also gave Xiao Yazi a thumbs up......
Xiao Yazi smiled embarrassedly......
After that, at the age of only eleven, the lonely Ya Zibian began to live with his master, An Dengdao......
However, this Andon Taoist did not teach Yazi anything useful, let alone teach him Taoism, but just treated him as a small servant every day, and asked him to do laundry and cooking......
Although this is the case, Xiao Yazi didn't ask An Dengdao, because he had said before he apprenticed, "No matter what he asks him to do, as long as he is given a mouthful of food......
Every day, although Yazi follows Andang to travel north and south, travel east and west, and serve the life of Andang Dao people, Yazi has no complaints......
Time passed day by day, and one day after a few years, Yazi followed the people of Andon Dao to a big mansion, which was very magnificent, and it was a hundred times more luxurious than Yazi's previous home......
