Chapter 21: Wanwan
"Bang, bang......"
It was dark, and a horse-drawn carriage walked down the quiet streets.
On the carriage, Gan Shiyi closed his eyes, looking surprised for a while, amazed for a while, and frowning for a while...
Mei Xiu, who didn't notice it at all, was caressing the Taoist robe in her hand while looking at him firmly.
Suddenly, Gan Shiyi opened his eyes and turned his head to look at Mei Xiu and said, "What is my sister looking at?" ”
"Huh?"
Mei Xiu was frightened, and hurriedly lowered her eyebrows and bowed her head: "The immortal chief can call me Mei Xiu." ”
Gan Shiyi's eyes were deep, and he looked at her quietly and said, "Do you still think there is any difference between the immortal chief and ordinary people?" ”
Mei Xiu was stunned for a moment, as if she remembered the conversation between the two before.
She shook her head a few times, bit her lip with a little hesitation, and said, "It's no difference." ”
Gan Shiyi nodded, looked up and said, "I usually think that monks should be people who don't care about the world and are dedicated to the Tao.
I also feel that mortals can't get rid of the world in their lives, and can only struggle back and forth in the human world.
But when I finally came to my senses, I realized how false it all was.
Sister Mei, you have a good quality, and none of the monks I have seen just now can compare to you. ”
Mei Xiu's cheeks were slightly red, and she suddenly remembered that day at the foot of the mountain, she saw a thin young man carrying a long bamboo stick, so she couldn't bear to choose him from the crowd.
Just as he was about to continue to think about it, he suddenly heard Gan Shiyi beside him ask a cold question: "Sister Mei, can you tell me what kind of person your young lady is?" ”
Mei Xiu blinked, only to feel that most of the strange emotions that had just risen in her heart quickly dissipated.
She glanced at Gan Shiyi, hesitated, and said softly, "I only advise the Immortal Elder not to believe what he sees.... It's best to stay away from my young lady. ”
After hearing this, Gan Shiyi nodded thoughtfully and did not ask again.
Huang Qiurong also felt very dangerous to him tonight.
When we first met, it seemed that humans and animals were harmless, but in the matter of trading, I had prepared a plan in advance.
Now goodbye, it seems that he has a good impression of him, and uses beauty as a seduction, and after seeing that he is indifferent, he makes a large seductive promise.
Spells, spirit stones, magic weapons...
Generous, he doesn't care about the property and people around him, and he only wants revenge on his family.
In all cases, it looks like a person who has been carried away by hatred.
But Gan Shiyi vaguely felt that Huang Qiurong might not have behaved like that.
Now that he asked Mei Xiu about something, he made up his mind to stay away from Huang Qiurong in the future.
The carriage traveled all the way and stopped at an alleyway.
At the time of parting, Mei Xiu took out a jade plate and handed it to Gan Shiyi.
"This is the practice of the young lady's cultivation entry."
Gan Shiyi glanced at it, and then immediately put it away in his arms.
This trip was really a bit of a surprise, not only did I gain those three spells, but I also got an entry method, which solved a lot of troubles at once.
After the carriage left, Gan Shiyi was a little impatient to check the three spells.
It's just that now the sky is getting darker, and he doesn't seem to have a place to stay.
Walking into the alley, I found that the courtyard door of Niu Er's house was closed, and the same was true of the third sister's house next door.
Just as he was about to turn around and go to the inn, he suddenly heard a little girl's voice: "Immortal Chief, is it you?" ”
Gan Shiyi was slightly stunned, and when he looked back, he saw the little girl from the third sister's family quietly opening the crack in the door and asking softly outside.
Gan Shiyi didn't move, just looked at the little girl and asked, "Are you waiting for me?" ”
The little girl was not ordinarily bold, and after hearing the inquiry, she walked out of the courtyard gate, came to Gan Shiyi and stood still, looked up in the hazy moonlight and asked, "Immortal Chief, it's dark, come to my house to rest." ”
Gan Shiyi shook his head, and suddenly asked, "What are you calling me?" ”
"Immortal Chief, I was in the house before, and I heard someone outside calling you Immortal Chief, so you left with someone."
Although the little girl said something calm, Gan Shiyi still saw the nervousness on her face.
Gan Shiyi shook his head and said, "You heard me wrong, I'm just an ordinary person, not an immortal." ”
The little girl nodded quickly, and said, "Then you can come in with me to rest." ”
Gan Shiyi wanted to ask 'why' again, but he looked at the little girl's appearance and nodded a little softly.
Entering the courtyard gate, the little girl was about to take Gan Shiyi into the house, but found that Gan Shiyi stopped in the courtyard.
With a little smile, Gan Shiyi urged: "You go into the house to rest, I'll just rest here." ”
With that, he sat down cross-legged against the chicken coop.
The little girl was about to say more, when she saw that Gan Shiyi had closed her eyes.
I had no choice but to turn around and go back to the house.
......
"Giggles....!!"
The rooster crows and the morning sun rises.
Wanwan slowly opened her eyes from her sleep, she sat up and looked at her drooling brother next to her, and was about to do something, when she suddenly remembered last night.
Quickly got out of bed with his clothes on, and ran out the door barefoot.
When I came to the courtyard, I saw that there was no one in the courtyard.
She walked around the yard anxiously a few times, and finally ran to Xiaohong's chicken coop to take a look.
Just as he was frowning, he heard a voice above his head: "What, are you afraid that I will steal Xiaohong's eggs, or are you afraid that I will go into the chicken coop and sleep?" ”
Wanwan suddenly looked up, and saw Gan Shiyi in a Taoist robe standing on the roof, looking at the morning sun on the horizon.
"Immortal Chief! Are you about to ascend? ”
Gan Shiyi smiled back, met Wanwan's gaze, carefully climbed down a ladder from the roof, walked to her side, patted her head and said, "It's all said, I'm not an immortal." ”
"But..."
Wanwan was about to say more, when she heard an exclamation: "Ah! Dao Chief, why are you here..."
Gan Shiyi turned his head and looked at the third sister who walked out of the house with a surprised look and said, "After I came back last night, I found that I didn't have a place to rest, but fortunately, your little girl invited me to rest in the courtyard for one night." ”
"Ahh
The third sister's face was a little blushing, she reached out and stroked her messy hair, and finally complained to Wanwan: "How can you not take the Taoist to the guest room to rest, and let the Taoist chief rest in the courtyard, in case you catch a cold...
Quick, quick, the Taoist chief will go into the house first, I'll go prepare a cup of hot tea for you, and go to the cold. ”
Gan Shi nodded and said, "Thank you, third sister." ”
......
"Ahh
Wanwan had just walked into the house with a cup of hot tea when she heard the sound of Gan Shiyi catching a cold.
She walked over and put down the teacup, stared at him firmly and said, "You are really not an immortal?" ”
Gan Shiyi nodded with a little smile, picked up the teacup and said, "Have you ever seen an immortal chief sneeze?" ”
"Ahh
Wanwan's calm face finally showed a look of loss, and she shook her head and turned to leave.
But at this time, she heard another question: "I don't have much to stay in recently, I wonder if I can continue to rest in your courtyard?" ”
Wanwan didn't speak, just turned and left.
