Chapter 14: Introduction to the Spirit Child
The little snake was captured by Master Jing Yuan, and my heart was empty, and I was more curious, was it the little snake that was talking in my ear just now? The departure of the little snake took away my mind of endorsement, and I hastily cleaned up and prepared for bed.
I fell asleep in a daze, and I dreamed of the girl in white, still looking at me with a smile, this time I heard what he said clearly, in the dream, she lightly opened her lips and said slightly: "Don't be afraid, I'm fine, I'm just here to see you." I hurriedly asked, "Are you a little snake?" The girl nodded and said, "My name is Liu Wujian, which is the little snake you said, hehe." ”
The little snake looks the same age as me, has grown so big, and has never been in contact with peers, let alone friendship, the appearance of the little snake makes me feel unprecedented warmth, the little snake said: "This master is not bad, I didn't treat me like this, I will go to see your master tomorrow, everything will be understood, I will go first." ”
After saying that, the little snake was gone, and I woke up from the bed as if in a dream, but I couldn't tell, I got up, blew out the candle, and went back to bed to continue sleeping.
The next day, the master came to knock on the door very early, and the master looked at me and said, "Are you still used to staying here?" ”
I haven't looked at the master for a few days, and I really miss him a little, so I sighed and said, "It's good to stay here, but my brain is stupid, and it's too difficult to memorize books." ”
After hearing this, the master touched my head, smiled heartily, and said, "Everyone is here like this, my brain is stupider than yours, isn't this also the master?" ”
I knew that the master was comforting me, so I didn't say anything, but asked, "Master, why do you have time to come over today?" ”
The master said: "Your master Jingyuan invited me to come, saying that there was something." ”
As soon as the words fell, Master Jing Yuan walked out of the room, bowed to the master, and said, "It's strange to be in charge of the early morning, I really have something to discuss." ”
The master hurriedly returned: "Master Jing Yuan said bluntly that it doesn't matter. ”
Master Jingyuan described to the master about the little snake looking for me yesterday, and after listening, the master looked at me and said, "Just do what we set before, I will set up a monument for it, and it will return to the mountains and forests." ”
I also knew that this was something that was set before, but I just didn't feel very comfortable in my heart, so I hesitated for a moment and said, "Master, I dreamed of her last night, and I have no ill will towards me, besides, if you believe in fate, then she saved me, isn't it also fate?" ”
The master raised his eyebrows rarely, and asked suspiciously, "You said you dreamed of her?" I nodded vigorously, but the master seemed a little unconvinced, and asked again, "I dreamed of her, did she say anything to you?" ”
I thought for a moment and said, "She said that her name is Liu Wujian, and she didn't say anything about the rest." ”
Master and Master Jing Yuan exchanged glances, and an imperceptible expression flashed on their faces.
Master Jing Yuan frowned lightly and said, "You are not a disciple of the horse, how can you dream of her?" ”
The master suddenly said, "No, there is a problem. ”
Immediately afterwards, the master pulled Master Jing Yuan and said, "You take out this snake, I have something to ask him." ”
Without waiting for Master Jingyuan to speak, the little snake swished out and took the initiative to run out, as if he couldn't wait to communicate with the master, who recited some incomprehensible spells, then closed his eyes tightly, and did not speak for a long time.
Suddenly, the master opened his eyes and said with a smile: "I'll just say there's something here." ”
Master Jing Yuan and I pricked up our ears at the same time, and Master Jing Yuan continued: "Let me ask you, who did you meet on the day you entered the mountain?" ”
Listening to me, I was a little dazed, and suddenly remembered the old man, and hurriedly told the master about the experience of meeting the old man.
After listening to this, the master's expression became more complicated, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or sad, and after a while, he said helplessly: "What kind of life is your kid in this life?" ”
Good fellow, what are you asking me for? I also wanted to know, and the master said, "I just communicated with this snake, and I don't even know what to say." ”
After a pause, the master said: "The old man you met that day was her, she just changed her image, she asked you, what is she like, this is called asking, thanks to you saying that she is like a god, you want to say that she is like a person, he is a vain practice." ”
Listen to me stunned, what about this exquisiteness? Did I make a mistake?
The master continued: "She saved you at the beginning, but it was also because you gave her instructions, according to the rules of her Liu family, she had to protect you for the third life, so she gave her life to save you that day." ”
After I listened, it was as if I had been empowered, and I didn't expect the old man who asked to be her, so I hurriedly asked, "Master, she told me that day, let you learn to be rich and rich, and you are almost a little red, what does this mean?" ”
The master suddenly laughed and said, "Sure enough, it's a positive cultivation, this is a couplet in front of the Holy Monarch of Fuzhen Mansion, which means that no matter how long she has been practicing, she must need someone to help her guide the way, otherwise she won't be able to enter the immortal class." ”
I kept repeating it: "Fuzhen Mansion Holy Monarch ......"
The master said impatiently: "Don't read it, he still has a name, called Zhong Kui." ”
Master Jing Yuan asked beside him, "Then look, how to deal with this matter." ”
The master thought for a moment with a little hesitation, and said: "This Liu Wujian has not done evil things for thousands of years, but has been guarding this mountain, I asked her just now, she is quite willing to stay, I think it is also Taoist fate, it is better to let her stay for the time being." ”
Master Jing Yuan still didn't seem to be very reluctant, and said, "I'm just afraid that I will miss his cultivation." ”
With that, he glanced at me.
The master looked into the distance, smiled, and said, "This kid showed the way to others, and they sacrificed their lives to save him, isn't this also fate?" I wanted to attribute her to the mountains and forests before, but isn't this just ruining the fate of others? ”
Master Jingyuan thought for a while, and it can be regarded as acquiescence, the master turned to look at me, and said, "Since it is fate, cherish it, and Liu Jushi will practice with you as your companion from now on." After saying that, he smiled at me.
This sentence was tantamount to a ray of hope ignited in my boring life, and Master Jing Yuan said suspiciously: "Liu Jushi? Doesn't the head of the family want to take her under the door as a spirit child? ”
The master said with an indifferent face: "What? Can't you? The three thousand avenues are all cultivation, and if they borrow the place of the three Qing ancestors, they can't be angry. ”
After the master left, I went back to my hut and began to memorize, even if I can read, it is particularly difficult to memorize, at this time, the little snake next to me showed her true body, this is the first time I have seen her, not tall, slender, with two balls on her head in a bun, looking a little cute, a pair of aura eyes flickering at me, dexterous little mouth smiled slightly, but her face was a little pale.
The little snake looked at me and smiled playfully, and suddenly, I remembered the image of her old man, which made me feel cold, and I also squeezed out a smile on my face, but the little snake was not visible, and said with a smile: "We will live together in the future." ”
I responded, "Well, you're welcome, little snake." ”
The little snake said, "Don't call me the little snake, just call me by my name." ”
I muttered, "Liu Wujian ......"
Liu Wujian walked up to me and said, "Master said, I am your companion, then I will learn things with you." ”
I raised my head suspiciously and asked, "Aren't you an immortal?" How can you learn Taoist things? ”
The little snake glanced at me and said: "Master don't say it, I am a spirit child, the spirit child is the spiritual object received by the Taoist master, and he will be a member of the Taoist family in the future, but the practice is not restricted, it is okay to cultivate or not, as long as it is the right way, I want to learn naturally, I can learn it, I am not optical, and I must learn faster than you, hehe." ”
After listening to it, I don't believe it, we are both laymen, why are you faster than me?
The little snake smiled slyly at me and said, "If you can't remember, I can help you." ”
