"These foxes can't speak!"

"It's just an ordinary wild fox in the mountains." Song You replied casually, "If you can also speak, you are a vixen." ”

"Do they know how to play the piano?"

"I can't even speak, let alone play the piano."

"They're not smart!"

"How can it compare to the three flower girls?"

"And do they play with their tails, too?"

"Sanhua Niangniang go and ask them."

At this time, two figures, one large and one small, were sitting in a stall on the side of the road, each with two bowls of green tofu on the table, with a wooden spoon, and a swallow standing next to the table.

The stall owner was still shouting in front of him:

"Madara ~ Dove ~ Tofu ~"

The first two words are dragged with a long tail note, the sound is sharp, and the last two words are spit crisply, such as repeated constantly, the tone is abrupt, the rhythm is clear, and it is very charming.

It is the survival wisdom of hawkers in these years.

It may come into the memories of many people.

"Hmm......"

The little girl didn't ask any more questions, only lowered her head, poked and poked all the dark green tofu in the bowl with a spoon, mixed it with the seasoning, and then scooped it into her mouth.

I frowned, and I didn't think it was delicious.

So he turned his head again and asked the swallow if he would eat it.

Swallows naturally don't eat either.

Only Song You ate very happily.

The so-called turtledove tofu is tofu made from turtledove leaves.

Now in the middle of summer, it is the best time for the leaves of the turtle dove tree, pick it and wash it, knead it into green pulp, some add grass and wood ash, and some directly rub it with the pumpkin leaves, it will naturally solidify, and the result is the dark green turtle dove tofu.

It is said to be tofu, but in fact, it is more like cold powder, its taste is refreshing, and it is mixed with ingredients to cool and relieve the heat.

I don't know who discovered it first.

It is also the survival wisdom of the ancient people.

Song You heard someone selling turtledove tofu, thinking that it was noon, his stomach was empty, so he came over and asked for the price, so he sat down and asked for two bowls.

This stall is also very simple, just a little soy sauce and vinegar, into the bottom taste, finely chopped sauerkraut and a little sesame oil is the finishing touch, stingy, so that the taste up to several levels.

Although there is no oil and water, it is also sour and appetizing, and it is very comfortable on this hot day.

Song You sat and ate slowly, tasting slowly.

I also appreciate the fireworks on the streets of this strange town.

The small bowl was eaten quickly.

"Brush ......"

The sound of the bottom of the bowl rubbing against the tabletop.

A white and tender little hand, with thin and white arms, pushed her bowl of turtledove tofu to the Taoist, who had only eaten one bite, and learned the Taoist's usual tone and expression:

"Give it to the Taoist priest."

"Don't you eat Sanhua Niangniang?"

"Made of grass." "Swallows don't eat grass, and cats don't eat grass either." ”

"Swallows don't eat grass." Song You turned his head to look at the swallow next to him, and then looked back at the cat, "But do cats really not eat grass?" ”

"Three-flowered cats don't eat."

"But how have I ever seen Sanhua Niangniang eat?"

"Three-flowered cats eat occasionally."

Sanhua Niangniang's words were corrected quickly.

"Occasionally......"

"Eat as much as you want, eat as fast as you can." The little girl sat upright and looked at him seriously, "The Taoist priest gave the meat and fish to the Sanhua Niangniang to eat, and the Sanhua Niangniang also gave the grass to the Taoist priest to eat." ”

"I thank you......"

"You're welcome!"

The girl replied without hesitation.

The Taoist shook his head and continued to pick up the spoon.

The girl lowered her head, opened the gap, took out a small dried loach, took it in her hand, and nibbled on it, breaking a small piece from time to time, and handing it to the swallow.

"Turtledove tofu is very delicious, when I was in the Taoist temple in the past, there were no snacks on the mountain, so I had to go to the mountain to make an idea, every summer, I have to pick turtledove leaves to make." Song You looked at her while eating, "When you go back in the future, you can try to make sweet for Sanhua Niangniang." ”

"Sweet!"

"I don't know if it's good or not......"

"Sweet and delicious!"

"Try it."

"Add some dried loach powder to you, it will definitely taste good in it! It's like a sun-dried shrimp cub! ”

"No need, thank you."

"Don't add ......"

One big and one small finally quieted down.

Foxes still run through the streets of the town.

The Taoist silently ate the turtledove tofu, showing his memory, and the girl gnawed on the loach and twisted her head, watching these foxes running from one side to the other, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

……

Back at Xufu, it was already half of the afternoon.

Xu Fu had already prepared yellow paper for him, and when he saw him, he was concerned, and he had lunch outside at noon, and he was a little anxious to come.

"Although Fuyao County is not big, it is also prosperous and lively, quite shopping, we forgot the time while shopping, so we let you wait for a long time." Song You replied with a smile, turned his head to the boy beside him and said, "Please ask Sanhua Niangniang to go back to the room and get cinnabar and a paintbrush for me." ”

It didn't take long for the cinnabar brush to arrive.

In the crowd of the Xu family, Song You raised the pen and drew the talisman, and the pen walked the dragon and snake, relaxed and casual.

The pen is written and there is a spiritual light, and the words are clear and the breeze rises.

The breeze blew the grass and trees in the courtyard, and also lifted the sleeves and long hair of the clothes and robes of the crowd.

When the charm is completed, the luster looms and the ink dries on its own.

Song You painted fourteen pictures in a row.

All on a large piece of yellow paper.

He immediately put down his brush, used his fingers as a knife, and drew a few lines horizontally and vertically on the yellow paper, and the rune paper was cut into long strips three fingers wide and arm-long, almost the same size.

Song You carefully folded them.

"There are two kinds of charms folded into triangles are the yin repellent talismans, the most grammatical evil spirits, and the exorcism talismans folded into squares can cure demons and evil spirits to distinguish them." Song You handed it over to the head of the Xu family and advised, "Hanging the talisman in the room can make the yin ghosts and demons dare not approach, and if you carry it on your body, it will also have a similar effect, and you can also ensure that you are not harmed by the yin ghosts and demons." Among them, if the yin dispelling charm is carried on the body, then the ethereal yin ghost that ordinary people can't see or touch can also be seen and touched. ”

"Is there only seven? I don't know ...... immortal master."

"There are only seven sets of talismans." Song You naturally knew what the old man meant, "But those who hold talismans can not only see the yin ghosts, but also not be hurt by the yin ghosts and demons, as long as they are used well, don't say that there are only seven of the two talismans, even one for each, which is enough to protect the Xu Mansion." ”

"Old decay writes down ......"

"I've been shopping for a long time today, and I'm a little tired, so I'll go back and rest first." Song You gave up his hand with him, "I have to remind the head of the family that the talisman is not omnipotent, it can only keep the integrity of the holder, as for whether it can get rid of the yin ghosts and demons, it will take a lot of thought, test some wisdom and strategy, and need some courage and bravery." ”

"I'll be cautious!"

Song You took Sanhua Niangniang back to the room.

Sit cross-legged and practice with your eyes closed.

Really ignore the outside world.

Night slowly fell, and even dinner was sent by the Xu Mansion.

I only knew that that night, it was busy outside the door, the atmosphere in the courtyard was tense, and everyone was waiting for it.

It wasn't until the bright moon was like a branch that the old woman came.

Immediately, the courtyard suddenly became lively.

First, there was the sound of talking, the sound of debate, then the angry scolding of both sides, and then the fierce shouting, accompanied by the screams of ghosts, and the noise was heard by half of Fuyao County.

After more than a quarter of an hour, the sound of scolding, debate, and talking resumed, until everyone returned to the room, and the ghost hunting drama that woke up half of the city came to an end.

The three-flowered cat leaned on the window and looked out from beginning to end.

Taoists practice with their eyes closed from beginning to end.

……

The next morning, the Xu Mansion was as quiet as if nothing had happened last night.

When Song You opened his eyes, the three-flowered cat was no longer around, but he heard the sound of talking outside the door, the sound was not loud, whispering, it was really like the bird cry in the courtyard when he was practicing in the Taoist temple on the mountain, and he woke up every morning - he could hear it if he listened carefully, and he could easily filter it if he didn't want to listen, and he wouldn't feel noisy at all.

"Sanhua Niangniang watched the ghosts fight last night, and she fought for half the night."

"Yes, I fought until the fourth watch, but fortunately, the matter was finally resolved, and the house could be peaceful for a while."

"My Taoist priest told Sanhua Niangniang not to help, otherwise Sanhua Niangniang will help you fight, and you will kill that ghost in one fell swoop!"

"The Immortal Master has helped us a lot. And it didn't just help us this time. Since then, there have been many evil ghosts and monsters in the city, and there has been an endless stream, and the immortal master has already helped us think of a way in advance. This is really helping us a lot, whether it is the main family or Xu, we should be grateful. ”

The girl's voice was heard for a moment.

"Sounds like a lot of power~"

"The immortal master thinks far-reaching, and he is naturally powerful."

"It's not him!"

"Huh? But I don't know ......"

"It's you! You sound like you're amazing! My Taoist priest said that you will definitely be very powerful in the future! ”

"Huh?"

"Did Sanhua Niangniang give you a rat?"

"Ate one last night. Don't hide the Sanhua Niangniang, it's not a boast, after Xu finished eating, he only felt that the fragrance was long, the taste was excellent, and the aftertaste was endless, which was really the top delicacy that Xu had eaten in his life. ”

"Sanhua Niangniang added spices, the best spices, learned from Taoist priests, no one else can do it, and it is very expensive."

"I see! No wonder, no wonder! ”

"...... at noon today"

Before the female fairy tale was finished, she heard another squeak.

The door behind him was pushed open.

The Taoist was dressed and washed.

Sanhua Niangniang is still talking to the guests at the door, still separated by a pillar, one is lively and talkative, the other is respectful and restrained, and the swallow is watching the play in the tree.

"Is the gentleman awake?"

The scholar surnamed Xu breathed a sigh of relief again, and hurriedly saluted: "Xu came to invite Mr. to breakfast, the head of the family should thank Mr. for his help, and also report to Mr. about last night's incident." ”

"Let's go." Song You took a step, "It's just right, staying in the house for three days, thanks to the hospitality, we should also leave, and we should go to say goodbye to the head of the family." ”

"Sir, this is leaving?"

The scholar surnamed Xu was very surprised when he heard this.

"Let's go today."

"Mr. has a great favor to the Xu Mansion, why not stay for a few more days, not only let me wait for the friendship of the landlord, but also let the head of the family say thank you?"

Song You's expression was calm, and his pace did not stop: "The way of the world has changed, it is better to move forward, not to stay longer." ”

"This ......"

When the scholar surnamed Xu heard this, he immediately didn't want to say more, not to mention that he was not from Xu's mansion, so he had to say: "The head of the family has set up a luncheon, and I will invite Mr. to have lunch before leaving." ”

At the same time, the child's delicate and crisp voice immediately came from the side, which was full of anticipation:

"Let's go after lunch!"

“……”

The Taoist was very helpless, but he had no choice but to respond.
