Text 43 The son-in-law is a pig
Sun Wukong said with a smile: "This is your luck, you met me as an expert, we are very coincidental to make up four and six, you don't have to travel far, don't spend silver, we are not the poor monk, pus-filled Taoist, little monk I actually have some means, used to take demons." This is just to take care of Langzhong, and secondly, to heal your eyes, you leave us to stay overnight, I have relieved your troubles, and everyone has their own place. I bother you to go back to your master, saying that we are the royal brother and holy monk sent by the East Tu to worship the Buddha and seek scriptures in the west, and we can subdue demons and bind monsters. ”
Gao Cai glanced at the short Monkey King with a little disgust, obviously not believing that Monkey King would have any ability to subdue demons and eliminate demons.
Gao Cai said: "You don't mistake me, I have already suffered a belly of anger, if you coax me, there is no means, you can't hold that goblin, won't it hurt me to be angry?"
Sun Wukong said confidently: "Discipline you correctly, you can take me to your house." ”
"Oh well. ”
Gao Cai also had no choice, anyway, he went out blindly to look for it, so he had to pick up his burden and take the umbrella, turn around, and lead me and Sun Wukong to his house.
People have agreed to take us to his house, but Sun Wukong's hand has never let go of Gao Cai's body, as if he was afraid that Gao Cai would run away.
I have to say, if Gao Cai's kid is really not a mortal, then his acting skills are too good, and his every move is a teenager with troubles, compared with the immortals I met before who pretended to be mortals, Gao Cai's acting skills are too much smarter.
Following Gao Cai, we walked into Gao Laozhuang, Gao Laozhuang is indeed very large, at least there must be sixty or seventy households, and there is a small commercial street in the middle of the village, and the three-story building in the depths is estimated to be Gao Taigong's home.
Because it was past dusk, although there were still many people walking around the streets of the village, no one cared about the ugly Monkey King, but a few people took a look at me, a foreigner riding a tall horse.
Since I left Chang'an City, I have never entered any city and village, after all, monks are not allowed to go close to the city and village, unless I want to spend the night I will find a family at the edge of the village, in fact, according to the regulations, the monk is not allowed to ride a horse, let alone ordinary people to go to sleep.
Walking through the village, listening to the barking of chickens and dogs, the barking of cows and sheep, and the occasional conversation and laughter, I suddenly felt like I was in a different world.
I have been away from the world of normal people for too long, before the age of eighteen I was just an ordinary son, after leaving home has been living a pure heart and few desires of the practice of life, Chang'an City after the land and water conference embarked on a thrilling road to learn the scriptures, these years have experienced an abnormal life, suddenly see this ordinary comfortable environment, I am a little uncomfortable.
Gao Laozhuang is not very big, and he arrived at the gate of the Gao family without doing a few steps, this Gao Taigong's house is indeed not at the same level as other portals in the village, just these two thick wooden doors carved with flowers, it can completely show that his Gao family's financial resources are extraordinary.
Gao Cai said: "Two elders, you sit on the platform for a while, and wait for me to go in and report to the master." ”
Sun Wukong didn't let go until now, and I stood by the door and waited.
I don't know what Gao Cai said when he entered the mansion and saw whom, but according to normal guesses, after entering the door, he must be scolded again, after all, let you go out to do errands, not long after you went out, you turned your face and came back, and whoever is the owner will be unhappy.
However, it is unknown whether the people in this Gao family are all ordinary people, and it is possible that the entire village is changed by immortal magic.
It didn't take long for an old man dressed in a gorgeous costume to go out of the gate with Gao Cai, presumably this old man was Gao Taigong, the owner of Gao Laozhuang.
Mrs. Gao came out and greeted him with a smile, "The two elders are in a hurry." ”
I returned the salute, but Sun Wukong stood still, not to mention ordinary mortals, even the immortal Sun Wukong in the sky is called a brother and a brother, where will he salute.
Gao Taigong's reaction when he saw me was quite normal, but when he saw Sun Wukong's appearance, he was obviously startled, and he was stunned for a few seconds and didn't dare to make a gesture to Sun Wukong.
When Sun Wukong saw it, he said unrelentingly: "Why don't you sing Old Sun?"
The old man was obviously a little scared, turned his face and whispered to Gao Cai in displeasure: "You little guy doesn't kill me? There is an ugly and weird son-in-law in the family who can't get rid of it, why do you lead this Lei Gong to harm me?"
Sun Wukong stepped forward and said: "Lao Gao, you are so old, and you are still so ignorant! My grandson is a little ugly, but he has some skills, he can catch goblins for your family, catch ghosts, take your son-in-law, and return your daughter, which is a good thing, why bother to talk about appearance!"
That is, don't look at my monkeys and monkeys are short and ugly, if you want to say that no one has ever been instigated in a fight, don't look at me as a jade tree and a dignified appearance, gentle and polite, cough cough, I can't beat anyone, including you.
However, judging from Gao Taigong's reaction when he saw Sun Wukong, he should be an ordinary mortal, maybe only Gao Cai is not a mortal in this Gao Lao Zhuang, if this is the case, then Gao Cai is not a powerful immortal, after all, he has been a family member in the Gao family for a few years, and generally anyone who is a Da Luo immortal will deign to be a servant in the mortal world for so many years.
The reason why I can now judge that person is an immortal change is because those immortals can't change their lofty attitude, no matter how the appearance changes, the subconscious arrogance can always be hidden.
Sun Wukong approached Gao Taigong to speak, and the little old man was even more frightened, and stammered and said that he wanted to escape.
Sun Wukong only led the horse, and handed the burden to Gao Cai with a smile, although his face was unhappy, Gao Cai still took it.
After entering the gate of Gao's house, the monkey did not lead the horse to the stable, but directly tied it to the pillar next to the door, which was not polite at all.
Sun Wukong and I followed Gao Cai to the main hall, looking at the mahogany furniture in the hall, it was all matte paint, I secretly sighed that this old man Gao is really rich, no wonder Zhu Bajie was unwilling to withdraw from the marriage after he came to the door, and he was unwilling to leave this solid family property.
Sun Wukong didn't wait for others to greet me and led me to sit on the upper seat, and he moved another chair to sit next to me, and he was so familiar that I was a little embarrassed.
Mrs. Gao said fairly: "This little elder is not a child. ”
Sun Wukong smiled: "If you are willing to keep me for half a year, I will not be angry." ”
Gao Taigong turned to me and asked, "Listen to Jiading, the two elders are from the east?"
I nodded, and said something I don't know how many times I have said, "Exactly, the poor monk came from the Tang Dynasty in the eastern soil, and was ordered by the court to go to the west to worship the Buddha and ask for scriptures. ”
Gao Taigong asked: "The two of you were originally staying overnight, how can you say that you will take the blame?"
Sun Wukong replied: "I'm here to spend the night, but by the way, I'll play with a few monsters, I don't know how many monsters there are in your house?"
Gao Taigong exclaimed: "Oh my God! How many monsters are there! Just this one monster son-in-law is enough for me!"
Sun Wukong said with a disdainful face: "You tell me how much means you have from the beginning to the end of that monster, and I will take him for you." ”
Gao Taigong sighed and said: "Our village, since ancient times, I don't know what sneaky spirits, evil demons are consumed, but the old and unfortunate have never had children, only three daughters, the eldest is called Xianglan, the second is named Yulan, the third is named Cuilan, the eldest daughter and the second daughter have been married to the Zhuang family when they are young, and only one younger daughter wants to recruit a son-in-law, counting on him to live with my family, to be a son-in-law for the elderly, to support the door and arrive at the house, and to do the work on errands." ”
Indeed, no matter how rich your family is, no one will give you a pension after all, no matter how many daughters you have, no matter how many daughters you have, there is no inheritance if you have no children and grandchildren in the family, and if your daughter marries out, she is someone else's family, and the daughter who marries out spills out of the water, so this old man Gao wants to recruit a son-in-law who comes to the door.
"Unexpectedly three years ago, there was a man, his appearance was also exquisite, he said that he was a family on Fuling Mountain, surnamed Pig, no parents, no brothers, and was willing to be a son-in-law with others. I was humble enough to see that he was such an unfettered person, so I recruited him. ”
Speaking of the surname pig, I only knew that there were surnames Zhu and Zhuge before I came to this world, and I always only thought that Zhu Bajie was surnamed by his own species, Sun Wukong's grandson was also taken from the monkey, and Monk Sha was surnamed by the name of the place, and even the Tang monk of Tang was also surnamed by the country.
But after coming to this world, I realized that the surname Pig is real.
Not only the pig surname, there are 12 zodiac signs, in fact, there are 12 surnames, but the animal surname is afraid of being ridiculed after all, some people have changed their surnames, rats have been changed to Su, Shu, pig has been changed to Zhu, monkey has been changed to Hou, sheep has been changed to Yang, dog has been changed to Gou, as more and more people change their surnames, some surnames have disappeared.
These twelve surnames are still available in the Shenzhou world where I am currently located, and of course, the surname Xiang Niu, the surname Ma, and the surname Long are still very common until now.
"When the man surnamed Pig entered the door, he was also diligent, ploughing the fields and raking the land, without oxen and harvesting the fields, without a sword and a staff. It's actually okay to faint and come to light, it's just one thing, and some will change their faces. ”
Sun Wukong said: "How to change?"
Mrs. Gao said: "When I first came, I was a black and fat man, and later I became a nerd with a long mouth and big ears, with a mane on the back of his head, a rough body and a fear of people, and his head and face looked like a pig." ”
Black fat man, speaking of black man, the first thing I think of must be Xiong Shanjun, maybe Zhu Bajie has become a humanoid appearance, and he looks good, at most he is a little fatter, otherwise this Gao Taigong would not have been able to take a fancy to him at the beginning. ”
"This monster eats intestines but is very big, you have to eat three or five buckets of rice at a meal, and you have to have a hundred and ten baked cakes in the morning, but fortunately you only eat vegetarian food, if you eat meat and wine again, it is the old clumsy family business and the like, not half a year, you will eat it clean!"
Yo he, I didn't expect this pig's head to be a vegetarian, it seems that in order to be able to adapt to the future life of learning from the scriptures, I started to prepare in advance, but the amount of twenty people in one meal is indeed a bit scary, and after thinking about it, I think this amount of food is okay, after all, in my world, there are many big stomachs that are popular on the Internet, and they eat more than Zhu Bajie in one meal.
I said in my heart, this one Zhu Bajie can be said to be equivalent to several agricultural machinery in your house, tractors, harvesters, rice transplanters, rotary cultivators, this person does the work of dozens of people, although he eats more, but people are contributing, just because of this you have to drive people away, it seems a little inappropriate.
I casually said, "He does more work, so he naturally eats more." ”
Mrs. Gao said: "Eating is still a trivial matter, and now he will make the wind again, the clouds come and go, and the stones and sand fly, bluffing my family and neighbors, and they will not be able to live in peace." and locked the little girl in the back house, and she never saw her for half a year, let alone how she lived or died. Therefore, knowing that he is a monster, he wants to ask a mage to retreat with him, and retreat. ”
It's just that since they are already about to enter Shamen, why do they still come to this Gao Laozhuang and marry someone else's daughter, this pig's head is really not a serious goods.
Sun Wukong said: "Why is this difficult? Lao Er, you can rest assured, I will hold it with you tonight, teach him to write a resignation document, how about returning your daughter?"
When Mrs. Gao heard this, she said happily: "I didn't care about recruiting him, how much I was ruined, and how many relatives I was sparse about." But you have to hold him, what kind of paperwork do you want? ”
Sun Wukong said: "It's easy, it's easy! When it falls at night, you will see good and bad." ”
