Chapter 30 The people's immorality is dry, and the ice meets the melting of the sun and the mustard seeds
When the Supreme Treasure looked back, he saw that the big boat was still nailed to the same place and suddenly spun around, and everyone on the boat shouted and beat themselves with the rotting corpses, and they had no time to care about it.
The boatman timidly raised his head and glanced back, pondered for a moment in his heart, and actually knelt down on the board with a puff, and kowtowed again and again: "Dao Ye! Dao Ye, please spare the villain, spare the villain! ”
"What do you mean?" The eighth master propped up the boat and glanced at it and said, "You came to support your boat to send us down, how could I kill you?" Pack your heart and put it in your stomach, and you'll be fine—come, I'll leave the oars to you. ”
The boatman took two steps on the board of the boat and took the oars but did not get up, and continued to plead: "Dao Master, Brother Pao will give an order over there, but no one is allowed to deal with the Taoist master of your City God Temple, whether it is buying and selling objects, delivering food, or pulling carts... The land is better, but this piece of the river is all within the scope of the Pao Brothers' Association, you say that this is if...", but the meaning is half-said, but the meaning shows that if he wants to be known to have given the Eighth Master Supreme Treasure, then the work on this river will have little to do with him in the future.
Speaking of this, he also kowtowed again and again, and the board of the ship clicked.
Seeing that this person was indeed honest and honest, the eighth master couldn't bear to cut off his life, so he asked about this person's birth date at the moment, pinched his fingers and carefully counted the fortunes, and immediately made up his mind. He looked around and saw that there seemed to be a small village by the river in the mountains, and he said to that place: "Okay, you can send us there, and then you can go back quickly—remember, if you can reach Rongcheng in three days, everything will be worry-free, if not, there will be a big disaster, remember!" ”
Seeing that the eighth master agreed, the boatman immediately stood up and rowed towards the village - later the boatman really rushed back to Rongcheng within three days, and when he was outside the city, he happened to meet the little young girl who took the maid out to swim in the river and rented a boat, and then felt happy and rented a boat for a few days. Early in the morning of the fourth day, Brother Pao will begin to check the whereabouts of the boat on the river in recent days, and when he went to other places, he happened to meet Xiaoqing's maid Lu Yao, and saw that the girl's beauty was not inferior, but he was taught a hard lesson by several soldiers left behind by Luo Zihan, and later Luo Zihan knew that he ordered someone to whip those scoundrels dozens of whips... So far, no one else dares to disturb the little young girl, and he has picked up a life.
We won't go into detail about this side branch, but we just said that the old man and the Supreme Treasure did not delay after getting off the boat in the small village in August, bought some dry food from the villagers, and went directly over the mountain after identifying the direction.
Just walked out of the village, suddenly a bird flew out of the forest on the side of the road, the eighth master pulled the supreme treasure, stopped and said to the empty place around: "In the eighth month of the lower onmyoji king, who is the honorable driver?" What is the matter of waiting here? ”
I only heard a few coughs in the forest, and an old voice replied: "It turned out to be a master of the Onmyoji, no wonder the Yin Ghost Servant in his hand is so skillful, and his magic skills are so clever - here is the Jiangzhong woman who was saved by Master Wang!" I am really grateful for the help of the emperor in the escape, but unfortunately I can't express my gratitude a little because I have no long things, so I can only wait here to ask the name of the teacher, and wait for the master to offer the immortal tablet to the next day, and pray for blessing and health every day. ”
Her words were like the words spoken by a village woman, without revealing the fact that she belonged to the same Fa, and the eighth master knew that there was privacy, so he just replied: "This is polite!" Seeing that the road is uneven, pulling out a knife to help is a matter for the people in my door, and I don't ask for anything in return, and I don't ask for incense - it's just that I seem to have been saved once by the Zun Driver, so it is not a grace to intervene, just to repay one or two, no need to thank you. ”
"Huh?" The woman in the forest seemed to be taken aback when she heard this, and paused for a moment before saying, "It turns out that you are the master of the Supreme Treasure and the disciple of the Onmyoji Five Wheel Sect?" ”
Hearing that tone was not good, August was also taken aback, and said, "Exactly! Listening to the words of the Venerable Master, it seems that there is a misunderstanding of my Onmyoji..."
"Misunderstanding?" Mrs. Lin snorted: "I don't dare to say anything else about your onmyoji, and I haven't seen many of them, but the Yandang Dingjia and Kunlun Wulun Erzong I've seen are just a little more superb, and the other characters are completely undesirable... I owe you my life to be saved by you today, and I will pay you back tomorrow! The feud between our two families is deep, and I don't want to talk about the rest - don't say goodbye, there will be no time in the future! ”
After speaking, I only heard the sound of the noise in the forest, and I didn't know what kind of spell was used, but I knew that the sound was getting farther and farther and softer, and it was far away in an instant!
The eighth master was puzzled but not easy to chase, so he could only continue to hurry with the Supreme Treasure, and on the way asked him to tell him the last time in detail, but he still didn't find any answers, and he had a question mark in his heart but he could only give up.
Although this Bashan is a large mountain, but there are also a lot of Orion mountain people in the mountain, Supreme Treasure and Wang August walked down the mountain road step by step, walking in the mountain for several days, every time they met the mountain people, they bought some yams, sweet potatoes and the like, plus the game in the mountain, but did not worry about eating and walked out of the mountain smoothly.
After leaving the mountain, Wang August hired a big car, pulled the two of them straight to Xianyang, and then went all the way west along the official road of the post station to reach Jincheng, and then went directly to the boundary of Yancheng through Ningxi City. On the road, I saw a shortage of soldiers and horses, and the warlords and bandits generally pointed at the people to oppress them, but fortunately, the two of them did not look like rich people in shabby clothes, so they were not very eye-catching. Occasionally, the unsightly people came to offend, and August casually used a confusion spell to fool the past.
The two of them hurried along the way, and the moon finally arrived—at this time, it was only less than two months before the ninth birthday of the Supreme Treasure.
On the way, the Supreme Treasure also asked the two of them where they were going many times, but Wang August just smiled, and finally opened his mouth after arriving here:
"Bao'er, this time our City God Temple suffered this catastrophe, one is because the fate of the water and soil has been exhausted for a long time, but the other is because there are tantric monks and monks who have come to commit it. The former is beyond reproach as determined by the mandate of heaven, but this monk has always been in the hinterland of China easily in Tibet, and this time not only came to the land of Sichuan and Chongqing, but also came with a master, and this matter is very interesting - we discussed and decided to go and find out what was going on, so I am going to send you to my master to study, and wait for my return. ”
The Supreme Treasure has been haunted by Yan'er since he came out of the village and failed to meet Yan'er, but when he heard that he was going to be separated from the master, he couldn't help but ask: "Master, don't you want me anymore?" ”
August has been with the Supreme Treasure for several years, and has always felt that although this child is alive and cute, but after all, he is a half-ghost person with three fires extinguished and an incomplete soul, and there is always some mustard in his heart. It's just that this trip is difficult, and it is dangerous for you to go with me, plus you are at the golden and jade season of learning magic, so you can't delay! ”
The Supreme Treasure pouted: "I'm not afraid of danger, and I don't learn those things - master, you take me with you!" I promise to listen to you, and I promise not to find something for you..."
August has always been clumsy and clumsy about this situation, and deliberately turned his head away from looking at it, but the Supreme Treasure has been entangled, so he can only change the excuse: "In this way, you stay in the Kunlun Mountain Master to learn first, and then come to pick you up after I meet them to explore-you have some ability, can you also give the master a hand when the time comes?" ”
The Supreme Treasure heard this and wanted to ask again, but when he looked back and remembered the events of the day, he also felt something in his heart, and he had come here to think that this idea in the master's heart had been thinking for a long time and was not easy to change, so he had to nod his head heavily and advised: "Then, master, you remember to come and pick me up!" ”
August said that the Supreme Treasure was also relieved, so he took him around the city, bought two or three new clothes, and then found a sturdy horse, and followed the old route towards the Kunlun Mountain Master.
After walking for two days and starting to climb the mountain, it was very slow, and the journey did not go dozens of miles after dark, and the mountain road was more and more rugged and difficult to walk. Coming into a wood, the two men got off their horses and rested on their backs. The eighth master carried some steamed buns and dry food in his arms, and was about to take them out and distribute them to the Supreme Treasure Ci, when he suddenly heard the thunder roaring in the sky, and the mountain wind blew much fiercely.
"Not good! Look like this is a heavy rain coming! The eighth master saw that the sky was not good, so he quickly stood up and looked around, and saw some light in the distance at the position of the ridge, so he hurriedly called the Supreme Treasure to rush towards that place.
There was thunder in the sky, and the wind grew stronger—and when the two of them were still three or two miles away from the lights, the rain finally poured down. August took out a robe of his own from his pocket and put it on the head of the Supreme Treasure, dismounted and led it, and touched forward with one foot deep and one foot shallow in the heavy rain.
When the fire came to the light, it turned out to be a village, and the total number was not a hundred or ten households, and the whole village was surrounded by a wall of bluestone high platforms, and all the houses were protected in it. The wooden gate in the center is all made of thick tree trunks, thick and strong, and above it is a watchtower and a crossbow tower, which is as strong as a small city.
In August, I remembered when I got closer: this place is called Kunshan Village, which is a first-class solid cottage in the Kunlun Mountains. The original cottage was built by a merchant house who came here to receive goods, and then developed into this scale over the years, there are several huge fur shops, medicinal herb shops, mountain goods stores, and inn wine shops, buying mountain goods from the Orion villagers in the mountains, and then selling some outside gadgets, wine, I also came here when I was studying art, how did I forget it?
In the midst of the storm, this is simply a blessed land!
PS: There is a cloud in "The Book of Songs, Xiaoya, Logging": "... The beans have practice, and the brothers are far away. The people's immorality is not good, and they are ashamed. There is alcohol
I am drunk, and I am not drunk...", which means: the people do not pay attention to morality and friendship with each other, and quarrel over a bite of food, and become idle.
The meaning of the whole article implies that there is no fundamental conflict between the mother-in-law in the boat and August, although they are evil, but they are also gradually resolved because of many helps.
