Chapter 42: Breaking Up
A middle-aged woman, with messy clothes and panicked, was crying loudly: "Little Erzi, where have you gone!
"Which is the fairy! She is my mother, and she is looking for me!" As soon as the child finished speaking, the middle-aged woman swept over at a glance, crying and running over, shouting as she ran: "Little second son, where did you go, but you can kill your mother in a hurry!"
"She's a fairy. Piaoranzi said. "Respecting your parents at home is better than seeking immortals from afar. ”
"You old way, what kind of immortal! Lie to me!" Xiao Erzi stared at the bulging eyes and said angrily.
The woman grabbed the child by the wrist, afraid that he was running.
"I didn't lie to you. You don't even respect your parents, what's the use of respecting me, an old man?" Piaoranzi smiled, "If you just leave like this, your mother won't be crazy in a hurry? Let's go home with your mother and live a good life, at a young age, what kind of cultivation will you learn!"
"Thank you two immortals! You are the reincarnated gods, Buddhas, and Bodhisattvas. The woman grabbed the child's wrist, knelt down with a pop, and kowtowed to Zhang Tianshi and Piao Ranzi.
"This sister-in-law, please get up, please get up. Zhang Tianshi and Piao Ranzi flashed to the side, and Piao Ranzi helped her up.
"Take the child home, don't let him run around again. Piao Ranzi said.
"Mother, I won't go! I'm looking for a fairy. ”
A slap of "snap" hit the little second son in the face.
"You come home with me, the whole family is crazy! I raised you so big, just leave, are you still human!" the woman took the child and walked towards the village.
The mother and son walked away, and Piaoranzi said to Zhang Tianshi: "Senior brother, this child is also 'forgetful', but there are parents who do not forget love, you have also seen it, did I do the right thing?"
"Hehe, hehe," Zhang Tianshi laughed dryly, "Okay, you did the right thing, senior brother admires." ”
"Okay, I still have to go home to see my mother, even if she is not alive, and her relatives and friends are not alive, I have to go back to my hometown to see, if I can't find Huiyun, I will definitely come to look for you again, how about it?"
"Hey, since you're hard-hearted, I can't force it. Well, it's up to you. Zhang Tianshi nodded. Just now, the brothers had a "fight", Piao Ranzi won by surprise, Zhang Tianshi knew that Piao Ranzi's vulgar thoughts were not over, and it was useless to force him, so he had to let him go.
"Senior brother, your accent doesn't match your body, and you will encounter a lot of trouble when walking in the world. Zhang Tianshi said.
"So what? I originally went to the Western Pure Land of Bliss when I was eighteen years old, and a thousand years have passed, and my voice has not changed, do you want me to learn the voice of the old man?"
"Also, I think change your appearance, otherwise, if you meet a god, you will be mistaken for Uncle Jiang. Zhang Tianshi said with a smile.
"Then there is Senior Brother Lao!" Piao Ranzi was very happy when he heard this. "Can you make me younger?"
"No problem!" Zhang Tianshi smiled. After speaking, Piao Ranzi closed his eyes, stretched out his palm, and recited a spell to him. Piao Ranzi felt the skin on his face squirm, and after a moment, Zhang Tianshi asked him to open his eyes.
"What has become of me?" asked Piaoranzi.
"There's a stream over there, look at the water. Zhang Tianshi said with a smile.
Piaoranzi came to the edge of the stream, bent down, took a photo, and smiled. In the water, the wrinkles on his face disappeared, his eyebrows were no longer white, and his beard was gone, like a young man in his twenties.
"Thank you, senior brother!" said Piaoranzi.
"Thanks for what. In the future, I will rely on you to teach me, and now, your voice matches your appearance, and it will not make people suspicious!"
"Then I'll go east, senior brother, where are you going?"
"Oh, okay, I still have to go back to Shucheng, I have something to take care of, let's leave it at that. Zhang Tianshi said. "You go back to Minzhou Shuicheng first, and when I finish handling the matter, I will go to Shuicheng to find you, and then arrange for you to apprentice. Along the way, you can't fly during the day, whether mortals, gods, or demons see it, it's not a small trouble, remember to remember. ”
"Noted down. The green mountains don't change, and the green water flows forever, then I'll leave it at that, senior brother, we'll have a date later!"
"Wait, before parting, Senior Brother still has a few words, explain to you, you have to remember. Zhang Tianshi said.
These days, Piao Ranzi has too many things to remember, thanks to his early reading of poetry and books, his family history, and his smart mind, so he didn't get dizzy, so he had to stand still and listen to what his senior brother had to say.
It is not difficult to push the avenue, and Er Cao only needs to be ambitious.
Dedicated to cultivating diligently, he has achieved three thousand ghosts and immortals.
"Senior brother, have you written it down?"
"Write it down!" Piao Ranzi recited it again, and the two broke up, Zhang Tianshi went west, and Piao Ranzi went east.
After returning home, he set foot on the way home again.
To the east of Shucheng, the terrain is flat, although there are parallel valleys, square mountains and hills, but it is located on the plain, and it is not difficult to walk all the way.
Piaoranzi only went to the east, and did not recognize the way. In the evening, I didn't find the village or town, so I had to sleep in the wilderness.
The red sun is gradually setting in the west.
There are no dead vines and old trees,
There are no small bridges and flowing waters,
Only the sunset is silent,
Leave the broken intestines at the end of the world!
Piaoranzi doesn't feel tired or hungry. When you are thirsty, you can drink some water from the stream.
It was getting dark, the moon was quietly rising, and in front of it was a hilly area, and Piaoranzi recognized the path with the light of the two eyes, and walked east. He thought to himself: I must find the main road tomorrow, and it is more convenient to walk along the villages and towns.
Suddenly, the wind blew around, and Piaoranzi felt a chill, and subconsciously looked around. If you don't look at it, you can do it, but when you look at it, you can see two shadows behind you shaking, high above the ground, and moving towards you quickly.
Piaozi was shocked: Could it be that there are people walking like yourself in this barren mountain and wilderness? No! If you are a human being, you can only walk on the ground, and you are definitely not an ordinary person if you look like that.
The two shadows were like ghosts, and they came behind Piao Ranzi in an instant, jumped in the air, and landed on the east side of Piao Ranzi, and that posture was obviously blocking his way.
These two men, who could not be said to be human beings, looked at them in the moonlight and felt a little terrible: one was dressed all in black and wore a certain black high hat, and held an iron sign with the word "catch" written on it, and the other was dressed in white and wore a white hat with an iron chain in his hand.
Piaoranzi didn't dare to look again, and wanted to walk past them. The two of them stretched out their hands and blocked the way.
"Brother Ren, why are you holding me back?" asked Piao Ranzi stubbornly.
"We're not human brothers, and it's useless for you to call us ghost brothers. Let's see how you run away tonight!" said a shriek voice dressed in white and wearing a white hat.
"I didn't commit Xiao Helu, what did I escape?
"If you want to say that the official is on the errand, we are also the official errand, and we have to arrest you back tonight!" said the rough voice dressed in black and wearing a black hat.
"Hahaha, you want to arrest me, but because I killed Shu Jing?" Piao Ranzi said, it seems that the shopkeeper must have reported the case to the official office, and now come to arrest him and go to the yamen.
"We don't care what you said about last night!" said the White Hat. "There were so many people last night that our brothers couldn't do it, you can be alone tonight, let's go, go back with us!"
"Since I'm not here for Shu Jing, why should I go back with you?" Piao Ranzi still had to hurry home, not wanting to deal with them.
"Toast without eating and drinking, and if you don't go back, we'll do it!" said the 'Black Hat'.
"You don't look like people from the government, if you don't get out of the way, I'm welcome!" said Piaoranzi. I thought to myself: It seems that these are two robbers, or bandits, I still scare them and let them retreat. So he shouted, "Listen, I'm not a human, I'm a ghost! ”
