Chapter 81: Auspicious Angel
Ten zhang away from the shed, there is a five-story towering tree, I don't know which generation planted it, there are enough three adults holding hands and hugging so thick, the lower end of the branch is less, the upper end of the thick branch stretches, covering the sky and the sun, forming a huge three-strand branch.
Between the branches, two magpies toiled to carry them towards the twilight, and had accumulated enough twigs for an adult to carry a large basket, and they became a coarse nest with a rough exterior and a comfortable interior.
The chattering and poor ghost Mao Changsheng's sound full of mockery sounded from the black and white crow couple standing next to the nest - the pair of auspicious angels crying freely, just to express the happiness in their hearts, but some things have always been "the speaker is unintentional, the listener is intentional".
The poor ghost was frustrated again and again, and his stomach was full of discomfort, and when he heard the cries of the two magpies, he felt that he had found a punching bag, and after a little hesitation, he jumped towards the tall tree with a "whirl".
Fooled by the round-haired beasts, and ridiculed by the flat-haired beasts, the beasts of this world are too ghostless.
"Why do you want to laugh at me?" said the poor ghost, who landed on a branch beside the magpie's nest, and asked straight to the point, "have I offended you somewhere?
"We didn't laugh at you," said the mother magpie in surprise, "we are newlyweds, and we live very happily and happily, so how can we laugh at others harshly?"
Oh, and the magpie turned out not to be a couple, but a couple.
The male magpie also urgently explained: "Mr. Ghost, we have no intention of offending the honorable driver. You think we're laughing at you, could there be some misunderstanding?"
The poor ghost originally wanted to ask the teacher for his guilt and make a big move, but when he saw that the magpie couple had good words and were very sincere, most of the anger in his heart disappeared, and he said helplessly: "I've been a little tired lately, maybe I'm too careful." Those who are clear are self-purifying, and those who are turbid are self-turbid, so I blame you wrongly. ”
The magpie and his wife approached, stood side by side by the nest, and said, "You are a good ghost, I wish we could do something for you." ”
"Your ability is limited, so you don't need to help, but I want to give you a little advice. The poor dead man looked indifferently at the shed, and then at the big poplar whose leaves had fallen bare, and his brows were twisted into pimples, "Look at you two are busy building a nest and spending the winter, as if you are busy raising children after spring." But I tell you, it's all in vain. ”
"Ah, Mr. Ghost, what does that mean, let me be clear!," asked Mrs. Magpie nervously.
The magpie's husband was also anxious, and said, "Dear Mr. Ghost, please give us some guidance!"
The poor ghost pointed to the shack and said with a sad face: "This place is not a good place to live and work in peace and contentment, the big businessmen want to come here to build a resort, and the underworld wants to build a nineteen-layer hell here." Everything here will be changed beyond recognition, and this big tree, which currently seems to be intact, will inevitably be uprooted by excavators......"
"Oh, is that really the case?" said the magpie and his wife, their faces full of sorrow, "this is miserable, we will have no fixed place to live!"
"It's really unfortunate, and it can't be avoided. "So, instead of being so busy here that you are homeless in the middle of winter, you two should abandon this tree as soon as possible, and go somewhere far from this village, and find a safe and secure place to build your home as soon as possible, so as not to waste all your time, energy, and effort." ”
"Thank you, sir, for your advice!" the magpie couple bowed three times in a row to the poor ghost, "Thank you so much for telling us the truth, otherwise we will do a lot of useless work!"
"No thanks!" the poor ghost smiled faintly, "Go and find a good place for you to settle down! The plan of a life lies in diligence, and the plan of a day lies in the morning, and it is still morning, and today is a sunny day, which is very suitable for you to move to a new house." ”
"Alright, we'll listen to your advice and take action!" the magpie husband flapped his wings, "It's better to act if you are tempted, find a suitable branch today, and you can also hold a lot of paper to nest in." However, look at you, sir, even if we fly away, we will be worried about you, a kind gentleman. Even if we can't help you physically, we may be able to help you ideologically. The ruler is short, and the inch is long, isn't it?"
Mrs. Magpie also urged softly: "If there is any difficulty, let's listen to it! You have treated us sincerely, and we will not repay us with false affection, and we will not watch our benefactor be depressed, and we will be at ease ourselves." ”
The magpie couple was very sincere, and the poor ghost was greatly moved, thinking that it was also self-suffering and useless to be depressed, so it was better to talk and relax, so he said briefly:
"The dogs, the cows and horses, all want to attack the migrant workers, and I need to drive the animals away in order to protect the workers. However, the abdomen of those beasts has been completely manipulated by a mysterious warlock who has pasted a spell, and even their true nature has been lost!
"If you want to get rid of those beasts, you have to remove those charms, but I try to do everything I can, and I can't get my wish, and my heart is depressed.
"It stands to reason that I am a ghost, I can disappear from time to time, and I can be ghostly, but those spells have a great damage power on me, so I can't get close to the range of two feet at all. ”
Speaking of this, he pointed at those beasts again and again, shaking their heads again and again, looking helpless.
"Oh, is it just such a small thing?" said the magpie husband and wife, who smiled at each other, and Mrs. Magpie said unhurriedly, "I thought it was a big deal, but it turned out to be a small matter, and we can help you." ”
"Now I can't afford to joke a little!" said the poor man wearily, yawning, "go and go about your own livelihood, my own business will be settled by myself! Thank you, kind magpie couple, for comforting me with warm words! I sincerely wish you a good home! I sincerely wish you happiness!"
"Sir, don't you believe in our abilities?" Mrs. Magpie was a little angry, "We won't be comforting with empty words! Husband, let's go, take action, and do something practical for this kind-hearted benefactor! This gen has helped us avoid a lot of pain and sadness in the future, and if we don't repay the favor, it is an incorrigible flat-haired brute, not an auspicious angel!"
Mrs. Magpie left the branch and flew to the shed.
"The good wife will do whatever she says, and I will follow the way of the wife and the husband. The magpie's husband also flew away from the branch to the shed.
"Are you really here?" cried the poor ghost in astonishment, and then floated up, "be careful, I don't want any mishaps and injuries from my friends who stand up for me. ”
The two magpies glided around the shed, getting a glimpse of the roof and the ground, and then chirped three times, and quickly descended to the big bull and horse.
The poor ghost did not come near high, nor could he dissuade him, but watched from a place not far away.
Even two magpies flew down on the back of the cow and horse, and when they saw that the cow and horse were not moving, they jumped to the ground, and when they saw that the cow and horse were still motionless, they jumped lightly, and jumped under the belly of the cow and horse.
The yellow paper cinnabar charms were all pasted on the belly of the cow and horse near the thighs, and after the two magpies saw it clearly, they pecked it with their beaks......
Whether it was a big cow or a big horse, once the spell was pecked, it immediately woke up as if it had just woken up from a dream, shook its head, and soon ran to the wilderness.
In about fifteen minutes, the herds of bulls and horses were all pecked out of the spell, and none of them were gone.
The poor ghost was surprised and excited, and soon danced with his hands and feet, and constantly "snapped" and applauded.
The cows and horses barely resisted, and the two magpies flew into the air, wanting to attack the dozens of dogs on the roof of the shed, but they seemed a little hesitant, circling and flying, looking worried.
"Two, stop here, thank you for your hard work!" the poor ghost shouted, "I'll deal with the rest slowly, you go about your own business first!"
The dogs are ferocious and hideous, and the poor ghost really doesn't want any bad accidents for the auspicious angels.
However, the two magpies did not listen to the dissuasion, circled for a while, rested, and immediately flew to the roof of the shed, with different sizes and coats, and different kinds of dogs.
When the dogs saw that the cattle and horses were gone, they were a little restless, and when they saw the two magpies flying towards them, they all opened their teeth and claws, and grinned their teeth, as if they wanted to swallow the two magpies and eat them, and the form was very dangerous.
However, the two magpies are so smart and agile that it is more difficult for the dogs to catch the magpie than it is to catch a fly.
Mrs. Magpie was busy pecking the dog's eyes, the dog stared at the top, the magpie's husband was like lightning, and pecked the charm on the dog's belly......
Or, two magpies approach the dog and circle rapidly over the dog's head, the circle gets smaller and faster, and the dog turns its head and eyes with it, and soon it is dizzy and uncontrollable to roll to the ground, and before it can be stopped, the spell is pecked off again, and it can only scream and flee far away......
In half an hour, the dogs had all broken the spell and disappeared without a trace.
The two magpies, exhausted, rested on the shed, and did not even have the strength to fly into the sky.
"Oh, thanks to you!" the poor ghost was grateful, and took the two magpies in his hands, and flew to the nest in the big poplar tree, and secretly used his ghost power, and when the two magpies lay down in his house, he became full of energy again, "Thank you so much!
The poor ghost was grateful, but the magpie couple said in unison: "It's a trivial matter, but it's not enough to worry about it!
"I'm so tired of you today. The poor dead man looked at the rising sun, at the workers who were coming out of the shed, and pulled his hair, "There will be no big trouble in three days, and after three days, you must get out of here." This little meaning can be used to buy some small bits and pieces for the winter!"
The poor ghost put a thousand dead coins next to the magpie's nest, smiled apologetically, and then floated to the mountain bag where the gut-pumping ghost Meng Haodong was sleeping.
"You're welcome!" said Mrs. Magpie, flapping her wings, "husband, what is this? I don't think it's warm when a blanket is at the bottom of the nest." ”
"It doesn't matter what it is, as long as it's given by the father-in-law, it's always collectible!" the magpie's husband picked up the coin to the bottom of the nest and covered it with some dead branches, "We should go! This monument should be placed here, and when we have built a new nest, we will take it with us—maybe we can make our children happy in the future." ”
The morning breeze was slight, and in the golden sunlight, a couple of magpies who loved each other spread their wings and flew leisurely to the golden mountain forest bathed in sunlight outside the village.
