(48) Rebirth of the lotus pond

"You open your arms, and no matter how many spirits that come out of you call you, you must not make a sound, or you will be crushed."

After Meng Po repeated the advice, she held a desperate flower in each hand and threw it at Yang Shuixin.

Yang Shuixin suddenly felt a sharp pain like ten thousand arrows piercing his heart, and countless black shadows were stirring.

In a trance, she saw Liu Yulu and Wang Sijun in front of her, holding her hand and crying: "Don't leave me, Shui Xin, we are good sisters, we want to go together, go together-"

Yang Shuixin opened her mouth and was about to shout, when the red birthmark in her palm emitted a golden light, and the black shadow disappeared in an instant.

"Alright, those butterflies will stay with me!" Meng Po held a few black shadows in her sleeves and said, "I will be useful in the future, your demon skills have passed, hurry up and reincarnate!" ”

Before her words fell, Yang Shuixin had already floated to the end of the bridge.

"Wait, you have to hand over the Demon Demon Seal as well-" Meng Po looked at Yang Shui in the distance, and her heart straightened, "The Demon Demon Seal is in her hands, she is still a snake demon, alas, ......"

The sixth day of the seventh month. The streets are bustling with lights. Yang Mansion is no exception.

"Madam, Xiao Yu'er is ready, it's time to leave for Xilian Temple." The maid carried a small and delicate wax lamp and came to Mrs. Yang.

Mrs. Yang frowned slightly, reached out to take the lamp, and looked at it.

"Madam, if you still can't get an heir after begging the Bodhisattva, please be relieved." Yang Xuan on the side said.

"King Xuan, the concubine has not been able to stay for King Xuan, if you fail to find an heir this time, please ask King Xuan to take a concubine." Mrs. Yang said, and tears flowed.

"Say what? Madame, you will always be my St. Martha, and I will not ask for another woman. King Yang Xuan clasped St. Martha's hand and said, "Don't think about it, let's go with the magpie, Ming'er we have to go to Hanshan Mansion to spend the Chinese Valentine's Day." ”

King Yang Xuan motioned for the magpie to help Mrs. Yang up, the carriage at the gate of the mansion was ready, and the three of them walked towards the gate of the mansion together.

"King Xuan, do you want your subordinates to send a few guards with you?" Personal guard Yang Dongdao.

"No, Xilian Temple is only ten miles away from here, besides, your wife and I often go, so you can wait in the house." King Yang Xuan commanded.

Xilian Temple is on the outskirts. Not far from Yang's house. The carriage was there in a few minutes. Because it is daytime, the temple is full of people, and there are many good men and women.

King Yang Xuan helped St. Martha to the side hall. There is a middle-aged monk about forty years old in the side hall, who is the presiding Farong.

Fa Rong was originally closed with his eyes closed, his left hand twisting the Buddha beads, and when he heard the sound of footsteps, his eyes opened, and he looked at the door with a bright gaze.

"Master, here we are." King Yang Xuan hugged his fists and said, "Master, our husband and wife have added five hundred taels of silver to the temple again. ”

"Thank you to the donor, the donor will get your son this time. Amitabha, good, good! ”

As he spoke, Fa Rong got up and took out a yellow talisman behind the statue of the Bodhisattva, handed it to St. Martha, and said, "Ask the female benefactor to stick this talisman on the side of the bed in the dormitory at night, but in a month, you will have a noble son." ”

Saint Martha took the rune, knelt down with King Yang Xuan and saluted again: "Thank you, master, if you can get a son, you will be grateful in the future!" ”

"Amitabha, the donor doesn't have to be polite, my Buddha is merciful, the donor is invited to get up!" Fa Rong hurriedly helped the two of them up.

Leaving Xilian Temple, King Yang Xuan said: "Martha, behind the temple is the lotus pond, we haven't fed the fish there for a long time, the fish lamp has been brought, the fish food has been brought?" ”

Without waiting for Santa Martha to reply, the magpie replied, "Sir, bring it." ”

When I arrived at the lotus pond, it was early in the morning, and the lotus flowers in the pond were blooming brightly. Santa Martha couldn't help but chant: "Light new makeup, Yingying dynamics, who is a lotus." I think of fragrant skin, I can't help but fear the sun, and the green cover is covered. ”

King Yang Xuan continued: "I'll win and sing." Therefore, why is the heart ......?"

The magpie said, "Old lady, your poems are really good. ”

Santa Martha smiled: "Magpie, my lord and I are not composing poems, this is a poem by Chen Qianzhi." ”

"Oh, magpies don't understand." The magpie said, "But listening to the old lady read it, it really sounds good." ”

Just as he was talking energetically, suddenly, a gust of wind blew from the lotus pond, and King Yang Xuan hurriedly protected Santa Martha, and the two retreated to the pavilion by the pool.

The magpie couldn't dodge it and fell into the pool.

The strange wind came and went quickly, and when King Yang Xuan rushed to the edge of the pool, the magpie was already leaning on the edge of the pool, panting.

"Wow-wow-" A baby cry faintly came from the middle of the pool.

The water in the pond was not deep, and the magpie standing by the pool said to King Xuan, who came over: "Master, where is the cry of the baby?" ”

The lotus leaves are tingting, and the cry seems to come from the center of the lotus.

"Wait until the maidservant comes forward and has a look." The magpie said this, and waded cautiously into the middle of the pool.

"Magpie, be careful—" Yang Xuan said.

"Got it, sir." The magpie agreed and quickened his pace.

I saw a big lotus leaf in the center of the pool, lying on a white thing.

The magpie stepped forward to see that it was a chubby girl.

She happily hugged her hands, and the girl immediately stopped crying, and looked at her with a pair of big round eyes.

The magpie walked back with the baby in her arms and came to the edge of the pool.

King Yang Xuan and St. Martha, who rushed over when he heard the sound, looked at it and asked in surprise, "Where is the child?" ”

The baby looked at the two of them and suddenly smiled.

"She's going to laugh, sir, she's smiling at me." Santa Martha was overjoyed and took the child from the magpie with both hands.

"The Bodhisattva has appeared, and she has given it to our children. Master! Santa Martha said as she pressed her face against the child's face.

"Madame, wrap up the child, don't freeze her." King Yang Xuan took off his robe, and St. Martha carefully wrapped the baby.

"Our fish lamps and fish food haven't been put into the pool yet." The magpie climbed ashore from the pool, and ran to the carriage without caring about its wet body.

Looking at the fish lantern floating into the depths of the pool, King Huang Xuan hugged St. Martha, stroked the baby's face and said, "God gave me a daughter in the center of the water, then she will be called Yang Shuixin."

The magpie clapped his hands on the side and applauded: "Good name, Yang Shuixin, the master has taken a good name." ”

So they all happily got into the carriage and went home.

Inside the Yang Mansion. Late at night, Santa Martha looked carefully at the sleeping baby on the bed, and her heart was full of joy.

She wanted to open the baby's tightly held hand, but found that no matter how to touch it, her little hand was held tightly.

Santa Martha remembered the yellow talisman that Monk Farong had given her, and she took it out of her bosom and unfolded the yellow talisman paper.

Suddenly, a golden light shot out from the bed and hit the yellow talisman in her hand, which was instantly shattered by the golden light.

Santa Martha was dumbfounded.

It took a long time for her to recover, and she quietly picked up the debris herself.

After processing the fragments, she came to the bed again, only to see the baby's right fist loosened, and a birthmark like a plum blossom was printed on her small palm, which was bright red!

Santa Martha froze again.

At this time, King Yang Xuan came in, and he asked softly, "Madam, haven't you seen enough after watching it all day?" ”

Santa Martha grabbed the baby's right hand and opened her small palm for King Yang Xuan to see, and King Yang Xuan was also stunned.

"Recently, it has been rumored that the government and the opposition are bewitching, and the officers and soldiers have repeatedly strictly investigated all kinds of visionary people, and adults and children have not let go. If outsiders see the child's palm, I'm afraid it will lead to death! King Yang Xuan said worriedly.

"Master, why don't we send her back to the pond?" Saint Martha suddenly grabbed King Yang Xuan's servant in fear and said, "There was an inexplicable golden light on the bed just now, which shattered the monk's yellow talisman. I'm afraid she'll bring us harm. ”

At this time, Yang Shuixin suddenly clenched his hands again and cried.

Santa Martha stared blankly, motionless, as if looking at a monster.

"Why don't you coax the child?" King Yang Xuan hugged Yang Shuixin, and although Yang Shuixin still had his eyes closed, he immediately stopped crying.

Looking at the baby, Santa Martha said hesitantly, "Master, what do you say?" To stay, or not to stay? ”

The magpie knocked on the door and said, "Master, the housekeeper of Hanshan Mansion has something important to see late at night." ”

King Yang Xuan frowned and said, "I know, you arrange the guest room and say that I will go immediately." He thought to himself: Han Shanjun has always been at odds with me, and he usually has no contact, so why did he call the housekeeper to visit him late tonight?

Unable to think of a reason for a while, he handed the child into the hands of his wife and instructed: "Madame is good at taking care of the child, don't make a mistake, wait until I go to see the person who came and then make a decision." ”

"Yes, sir." Santa Martha took the child and sat on the bed with her arms in her arms.

"The housekeeper of Hanshan came to the cold house late at night, and he lost his welcome, disrespect, and disrespect!" As soon as he stepped into the guest room, King Yang Xuan immediately clenched his fists and said to the housekeeper of Hanshan.

The housekeeper of Hanshan is an old man of about sixty years old, with white hair and hair, but he looks athletic, and he seems to be a person who has hidden his kung fu.

He laughed, and also hugged his fists and said: "Lord Yang is polite, if it weren't for the fact that my lord came to have a distinguished guest, he wouldn't dare to disturb the adult late at night." ”

"Oh, distinguished guest? Who's the guest? Yang Xuan asked in surprise.

"When Lord Yang came to my master, he knew that Master Lao had come over with me." Hanshan Butler Road.

"This—" King Yang Xuan muttered.

"Don't worry about it, my lord asked me to tell my lord that this guest has a deep relationship with my lord, and my lord will be grateful if you come." The Hanshan housekeeper said again.

"Since Lord Hanshan said so, it seems that I am too narrow-minded if I don't go to my humble position. Okay, magpie—"

"Sir." The magpie came in. King Yang Xuan instructed: "You go and talk to Madame, and I will come back when I go." ”

"Yes, sir." The magpie replied.

King Yang Xuan only took the housekeeper Yang Weiwu and the housekeeper of Hanshan to Hanshan Mansion together.

Hanshan Mansion is not far from Yang Mansion, only one street away. It's just that in Yangzhou, because Hanshan Jun is the prefect, King Yang Xuan is just a doctor in Yangzhou's Assassin's Mansion.

On the way to Hanshan Mansion, he kept speculating about which distinguished guest had come to Hanshan Jun's mansion, and what magical powers this distinguished guest had, so that Hanshan Jun deigned to order the housekeeper to come to his little doctor's house, and he had to go to the door.
