Volume 1 The Passing of the Flower House Chapter 35 The Young Man and the Meat Bun and the Buddha
The first snow of winter attracts many people to enjoy the snow-covered scenery, and they play like children on the thick snow.
The thin dry willow branches on the side of the road seem to have white leaves, and they look unique.
In the water moon flower next to the willow tree, the three of them stood quietly in a row, looking at the undiminished charm of Liu Xiao.
"The month you have spent under my cultivation method, your cultivation progress is not bad. Xiao Zilai has already condensed the sixth layer of the cultivation realm, and with the stick technique you have practiced hard, you can also fight with the people of the seventh layer. Liu Xiaoming looked at the three people in front of her whose temperament had changed slightly, and said with satisfaction, she also gave the three of them aliases.
Moving his gaze from Qiu Zilai to Ning Qinghuan, Liu Xiao said softly: "Xiao Qinghuan is already eight layers, your speed is almost catching up with me back then, it's very good!"
Ning Qinghuan listened to Liu Xiao call herself very affectionately, although it has been like this from the beginning to the present, but listening to it still made her face blush slightly.
"As for you, Xiao Yezi, I won't talk about you, you have to work harder!" Liu Xiao looked at Jingye, a little dissatisfied. In such a high-intensity cultivation mode, her pure karma did not break through the Yuan Vein Realm, which really made her heartbroken.
"Yes, teacher. Jingye said helplessly, he didn't like the title of Xiao Yezi very much, but he couldn't help it, who let him beat Liu Xiao.
Xiao Zilai, Xiao Qinghuan, Xiao Yezi, let others sound as if Liu Xiao had three cute pets.
"There was a heavy snowfall last night, you all pay attention to your clothes, although you are all cultivators, you are still human. Today, I will let you go out for a day, enjoy the snow scene of the capital, relax and relax, after all, you can't see you a few times a year, yawn~"
Liu Xiao stood up, looked at the three people waiting for cultivation again, curled the corners of his mouth, and spoke.
The three of them looked at Liu Xiao's appearance, and they looked very considerate of the students, but Liu Xiao actually yawned at the end, and the three of them understood.
It's not that I want them to relax and watch the snow at all, it's just that I want to sleep in!
......
Snow covered overnight, Chang'an white. White everywhere, white everyone.
The originally bustling long street lost a lot of people because of the heavy snowfall. Although the snow is beautiful, the people clearly prefer to stay at home, enjoy the silence with the fire on the stove.
Passing through the long street, a delicate and tall pavilion was also infected with snow at this time, adding another kind of beauty.
In the attic, there are still lingering shadows, and people come and go.
"With such a big snow, you don't know to come and see my ......" In a side room, Xiao'er was wrapped in a delicate brocade jacket, looking at the snow slowly falling outside the window, thinking of a handsome smiling face.
I don't know, the snow is pressing down on the city, you are doing well, will it be cold.
......
The business of Huamanlou was not affected by the heavy snowfall, but more people came to listen to the opera than in the past, and they were all children of rich families.
Someone outside the building passed by pushing a small wooden cart he had made, and he would also take a few peeks at the place. It's just that I never dare to think about whether I can go in and enjoy the beautiful face.
The small wooden cart exudes a hot smell and a rich smell of meat. The wheels passed, leaving two long tracks in the snow, and in the middle were the footprints of the owner running for life.
"Selling steamed buns, hot buns just out of the basket. Selling steamed buns, meat buns just out of the pot..."The man in the cart is very old, and the old cloth clothes are patched and patched, and they are covered with oil stains.
The face of the black light was against the wind and snow, and there was already a backlog of white flowers on his body.
It stands to reason that no one will go out to sell steamed buns on a snowy day, not only because the body can't bear it, but also because there are few people. But he couldn't help it, in the poor family, there was not only the old mother who was sick, but also the wife who was sick with wind and cold. The only child was dragged to the border to join the army last year, and the only one who can move in the family is himself. He made a cart of meat buns from the last noodles at home and the injured hares that he had unintentionally caught in the mountains, and sold them on the street with the last glimmer of hope, hoping to earn some silver taels.
"Selling steamed buns, hot steamed buns just out of the basket, selling steamed buns..."The man pushed the small wooden cart and walked forward slowly, shouting as he went.
But there are few pedestrians on the long street, and even if there are one or two, they are in a hurry to go home.
But he didn't give up and couldn't give up.
"Sell steamed buns, fresh hot steamed buns. ”
"Uncle, bring me two buns. ”
As the man was shouting, a young figure came up to him and whispered.
"Two pennies a piece. When the man heard this, he quickly took out the oil paper, carefully wrapped the two buns, and said with a smile.
The young man took out two pennies from his arms and handed them to the uncle, and by the way, he took the wrapped meat buns.
It's hot and hot, and the fragrance is hard to hide.
"Thank you, uncle. The young man looked at the man and thanked him softly.
"Here, this kid is here! Bunny, don't run!"
As soon as the man accepted the money, he heard a large man with a knife not far away rushing out of the corner, pointing here and shouting behind him.
The young man's face trembled, and he ran forward like a frightened rabbit with his bun in his hand.
The man didn't know what was going on, and hurriedly pushed his small wooden cart to the side of the street.
But there was snow under my feet, and the wheels were slippery.
Several big men rushed out of the corner, rampaged, and swept across the long street.
They knocked down the small wooden cart and knocked down the man.
The man fell into the snow and looked at the overturned wooden cart, all the buns in it fell into the snow and sank downward, only a few were still in the car.
"Ahh
This cart of buns is all he has, and he can only rely on these buns to exchange for some silver money, buy medicine for his wife, and let his old mother maintain food and clothing.
But all of this is gone, it's gone!
The snow is still falling, it has no feelings, the man is still screaming, he can't be without feelings.
"Uncle, get up first, it's cold on the ground. After a while, a warm laugh and a pair of warm and powerful hands helped the man up.
The man looked at the young figure in a daze, looking at his very delicate face.
Jingye squatted down, picked up the buns surrounded by snowflakes one by one, and put them into the small wooden cart that he lifted.
"Uncle, it's cold outside, but it's warm at home. Here are some of my thoughts, you take them and go home quickly. I miss your family and I want to see you come home safely. "Jingye took out a small package from the thunder ring, which had some weight. He thrust into the man's arms and said very gently.
Looking at the distracted man, and then at the footprints on the ground that were covered by snowflakes, he could probably guess what was happening.
The man slowly reached out and touched the package in his arms, looking at Pure Karma, wanting to say something.
Jingye smiled and followed the footprints and left.
The man looked at the back of the pure karma, and a Buddha light loomed behind him, as if he saw a Buddha walking in the world. Immediately took out the package in his arms, and when he opened it, it was white silver, which looked completely white!
Looking up again, the Buddha was gone. Remembering what Jingye said to him, the man wiped away his tears, put away the silver, pushed the small wooden cart, and rushed home like crazy!
"Heavy snow and wind cold, your family wants to see you go home safely!"
......
"Little rabbit, you should run for grandpa, aren't you quite able to run?" In a dead end, several men with knives surrounded a young man.
One of them went up and kicked the young man hard, then pointed a knife at the young man in pain and shouted.
"Uncle, I was wrong, I'll give you all the money back, let me go. The young man looked up at the big knives in the hands of several people, one lying on the snow, and begged for mercy in fear.
"Wrong? Now I know it's wrong! Do you think my brothers have been chasing you for so long because of those stinky money?" the big man looked at the young man lying on his stomach at his feet, spat out his saliva, and smiled disdainfully.
Several others also burst out laughing.
The young man was so frightened that he held his head and didn't know what to do.
"Hmph, rabbit cub, I'll let you die if you hadn't provoked a bunch of people from a big family, that little girl would have become the plaything of my brothers, you know, we are members of the Green Gang!" The big man looked at the young man who was afraid of death, snorted coldly, moved his neck, and said in a cold voice.
"Green Gang!" The young man didn't react much when he heard these two words, but he was afraid that he would die here like this. However, he is not reconciled, he still has one thing that must be done unfinished, how can he die here!
"The words are clear, since you choose to be a hero, then pay the price of being a hero, rabbit cub!" the big man held the knife in both hands, raised it above his head, and showed a ruthless face.
The young man covered his head, not daring to look.
"Why are you Green Gang everywhere!" Before the big man could start, a somewhat annoying voice sounded behind him.
The young man was a little familiar with this voice, and suddenly looked up from between the legs of several people, and a young man in white walked in, he looked at the latter's face, and for a moment, he was ecstatic.
"Brother Ye, Brother Ye, save me, I'm a thief, Brother Ye!" The young man lying on the ground was the thief who stole the pure karma silver before. When he saw the pure karma, as if he saw a life-saving straw, he shouted loudly without caring about the few big men in front of him.
"What are you shouting at your uncle!" a big man saw the big man who stole the sky and stepped on his back.
The thief was kicked and didn't dare to speak, but his eyes were tightly watching the pure karma.
"Who are you kid!" a few big men asked as they stared at Pure Ye and raised their knives just now.
"Didn't you just hear that? He called me big brother. "Jingye naturally knew that it was the thieves lying on the ground, but he didn't expect that this gang was also from the Qing Gang.
"What do you mean, you're his eldest brother? Okay, it's the same with you. You brother, you have ruined a few good things for our brother, and you, as his eldest brother, have to pay for it!" Dahan looked at Jingye and suddenly smiled. Seeing that Jingye was a little white face, he didn't take it seriously.
"Oh, you might as well talk about something, how to compensate?" Jingye said lightly, he also wanted to hear what good things these people from the Green Gang had done.
"Oh, my brother fell in love with a little girl, and they all got it, but because of your brother, they flew away! You said, you can't compensate us for one. I don't want your money either, if you have any sisters or sisters, just give it to us!" Dahan scratched his scum, looked at Jingye, with a disgusting face, still smiling.
But in the next moment!
"Bang!"
Jingye suddenly came to Dahan's face, his right hand was cashy, and a punch blasted out, directly piercing Dahan's chest.
There was still a smile on the big man's face, but it froze.
The other people's minds went blank when they saw this, and they didn't see when this person came to them.
The wall behind the big man was covered with dotted blood flowers. The snow under your feet is soaked in red. The surrounding debris, wrapped in snow and ice, emitted smoke and slowly sank in.
The thief lying on the ground, his back was warm, and he also opened his mouth wide, looking at the indifferent expression at this time, the sharp pure karma in his eyes, and slowly withdrew his right hand.
