Chapter 022: White Bone Spirit Apprenticeship
Although Nuwa is a famous god, she is also not exempt from vulgarity, so in view of the fact that the heavenly court also has the saying "the mouth of the god is short, and the hand of the god is short", so while eating, she talked to the white fox affectionately. Later, because the white fox was indeed very smart, very well-behaved, and very likable to her, it didn't take long for her to officially accept the white fox as her second apprentice.
As soon as Nuwa saw that the white fox was already an adult, she asked first, "By the way, white fox, if you want to say that you are not young, are you married now?"
The white fox was stunned for a moment, and she quickly denied it, "Oh, Bodhisattva, I haven't gotten married yet, because I want to cultivate well, so until now, I haven't met anyone who likes God at all!"
Nuwa is now eating more delicious crabs, "Then that, white fox, are they all okay now?"
The white fox was slightly stunned again, and she suddenly "whimpered", "Bodhisattva, Bodhisattva, in fact, I don't want to tell you, I actually don't have a father and mother for a long time, because when I was about to cultivate to become an immortal, one night, a few wolves suddenly came to attack us, and as a result, in order to protect me, my father and mother were eaten by those wolves, and they died miserably, and they didn't even leave a few bones for me, woo woo woo woo ---"
Nuwa couldn't help but let out a long sigh, "Alas, in this way, then you are also a miserable white fox---
The white fox continued to "whimper" and narrated, "Also, Bodhisattva, I originally had an elder brother, and I wanted to say that my brother was kind to me, but he felt sorry for me, but in the fifth year after my father died, in order to protect me, my brother was eaten by two leopards, and he didn't even leave me a few bones, woo woo woo woo ---"
Nuwa's heart immediately softened, and she sighed again, "Alas, the hard-working white fox, otherwise this way, since you are helpless in the First Heaven, how about you go to the Nine Heavens with me to live in the future?"
In this way, the white fox hurriedly kowtowed to Nuwa three times, "Okay, master, since you are willing to take me in, then you will be my reborn father and mother in the future, and from now on, the slave family will definitely honor you!"
Nuwa also laughed happily, "Hey, you kid, I said that you should come with me to live in the Nine Heavens, but I didn't say that I wanted to accept you as my apprentice!"
The white fox is really good at kicking her nose in the face, and she hurriedly smiled at Nuwa, "Ouch, good master, you said that you are already a bodhisattva now, how can you not have a few apprentices? If you think that I am really not qualified, then you will accept the slave family as your apprentice, okay?"
Nuwa obviously really wanted to accept the white fox as an apprentice, so she not only waved her hand with a smile, but she also immediately laughed and scolded, "Ouch, you little hoof, you are about to go, you said that I only need one apprentice of Yaoji now, and Yaoji is not married yet, so how can I accept you as an apprentice? Since you don't want to recognize me as a master, then from now on, you Baihu will also be my second apprentice of Nuwa!"
As soon as the white fox heard Nuwa say this, she was even more overjoyed and shouted, "Ah, you, it turns out that you are actually Nuwa Bodhisattva!
As soon as the white fox's voice fell, she kowtowed three times again, because although she knew that there were now a total of eight Bodhisattvas in the sky, namely Manjushri Bodhisattva, Nuwa Bodhisattva, Guanyin Bodhisattva, Maitreya Bodhisattva, Void Bodhisattva, Puxian Bodhisattva, Vajra Bodhisattva and Jizo Bodhisattva, but whether it was in terms of qualifications or skills, then Nuwa Bodhisattva was definitely ranked first, and she could be an apprentice to this kind of first-ranked Bodhisattva, wouldn't that be a blessing for her in her previous life?
As soon as Nuwa saw that the white fox had knocked out blood marks on her head, she quickly helped the white fox up, and told her like this, "Ouch, you said you are a white fox, what do you say are you polite to the master? From now on, you should not be too polite in front of the master, and you should not always be you, in fact, my Nuwa does not have so many rules!"
The white fox quickly nodded again, "Oh, okay, I know, master!"
After Nuwa laughed with the white fox for a few more words, she suddenly asked quietly, "Hey, I said the white fox, let me ask you, if we only have one or two days, then how can we keep the two heavenly gates of this heavy heaven intact?"
"Well, this, this, you let me think about it!" After the white fox responded like this, because she knew that this was obviously the master who wanted to test her, so she hurriedly looked at the heavens, and because although Nuwa had spent more than half an hour of work just now, Nuwa had only smoothed out one ten-thousandth of the heavenly gate, so looking at it, she suddenly frowned and came up with a plan, "Master, otherwise, in order to save time, why don't we use clay to glue those gaps?" Because even if we just glue those gaps with clay, it will still be very strong, otherwise it will only take a day or two, and we will not be able to completely restore the Heavenly Gate to its original state!"
Nuwa was already laughing happily, "Well, it makes sense, it makes sense, White Fox, since you came up with this idea, let's go to Wucai Mountain to pick clay now!"
As soon as Nuwa's voice fell, she pulled the white fox and flew up the high colorful mountain, and because she grinded the colorful stones on the colorful mountain into powder, and then mixed them into mud, and then used these mud to smooth out the gaps on the Nantian Gate, so the myths and legends said that she was "using the colorful stones to make up the sky", which also has a certain factual basis.
Nuwa took two days to smooth out those gaps, but just when she was about to finish, she ushered in another messenger of Heavenly Court, that is, the fourth apprentice of Yuan Shi Tianzun, her junior brother Taiyi Zhenren, and as a result, under the repeated urging of Taiyi Zhenren, because the Great Emperor Haotian was about to ascend to the throne of the Jade Emperor, she hurriedly flew to the Nine Heavens with the white fox.
Before Nuwa left the earth, she looked at the devastated earth, and she couldn't help but sigh very sadly, "Alas, fourth brother, look at where this earth still looks like Asia? I think this place should be called Africa in the future!"
The white fox was not ashamed to ask, she hurriedly asked, "Hey, master, although you said yesterday that you called this earth Asia, which means that this earth is second only to our heavenly court, but now you want to call this place Africa, what does that mean?"
Nuwa let out a long sigh again, "Alas, my white fox, the continent refers to the mainland and its affiliated islands, which is a place where people can live, but now, since there are no more people living here, shouldn't this place be called Africa?"
The white fox also let out a long sigh, "Alas, this is also true!"
