Chapter 160: Overnight Stay (1)
I was just about to fall asleep, but the door was knocked by something, and it slammed, and it was about to open for a while. The prince was inconvenient to sleep at this time, and he was not even sleepy, so he opened the temple door and looked out, but the sound of heavy rain was overwhelming, and other things were completely gone.
Can't stay here for a long time, but it's raining so heavily, how can you rush out, and there is no rain gear, this rushes into the rain curtain, and you can't get seriously ill? A fashionable and don't know how to be good.
Lying on a rock, cold and bone-chilling, and uneven, it was quite painful on the body. At this moment's helplessness, I suddenly heard someone talking, and the voice was not so obvious in the heavy rain, but it could be heard clearly.
"How is it possible, there is no one here at all, how can anyone talk to me?" The prince wanted not to hear this at this time, but he could not help it, and the words were still coming to his ears, and it was impossible to refuse.
"You're dying." A voice from the sky said to the prince, and although it was pouring rain, it was impossible not to hear the sound of this inauspicious solstance.
"Why am I dying?" The prince wanted to ignore it, but he couldn't, and he was dying in this situation.
After a while of heavy rain, it ceased, and the sound outside the temple gate could not be heard for a while, and the prince thought that this place might not be very clean, and perhaps there was something unsightly to live here, and he was sleeping here, isn't it a little stupid? Besides, the body is so bad that if you lie down any longer, you can't stand it anymore, no, you can't stay here anymore, even if it's sleeping in the wilderness, it's ten thousand times stronger than here.
I'm too hungry to eat, and if I don't eat again, I'm afraid something big will happen. At this time, I thought of Uncle Hua again, but it was far away, even if Uncle Hua did not refuse to give him food, he didn't have the strength to go to his house, so he secretly returned to Lu Town.
Along the long alley, the prince kept going, and the streets were bleak, and the lights flickered in the wind. On the bluestone floor, the feet stepped on it, and it was empty, but it sounded a little scary in the middle of the night.
At this time, he was extremely hungry, and after walking on the bluestone street for a short time, he suddenly found a light flickering, and in this scattered light, he heard a terrifying cough. The wind howled incessantly, and from time to time scraps of paper drifted on the streets, dancing, and teasing the prince from time to time.
Seeing that there was such a place at the end of the alley, and that there was only an old man in the flickering lights, who seemed to be simmering something delicious like bones, the prince leaned in. The weather is still a little cold, and I haven't slept all night, and my body is sleepy at this time, and I am afraid that it will be very harmful to my body if I don't eat some meat.
This old man may be living in this Lu Town, at this time the night is deep, he can't sleep for a while, and he coughs constantly, why is he in the mood to lie in bed? So he got up alone, lit a fire by the fire, simmered some bones and the like, and filled his weak body.
When the old man stood up, and suddenly found an uninvited guest standing behind him, he fell to the ground in fright, and he couldn't get up for a long time, and struggled on the ground for a while, and he still blamed angrily, and asked, "Who are you, why are you standing in front of Lao Tzu's house in the middle of the night?" ”
"Grandpa, I'm hungry." The prince looked at the old man and said smugly.
"What are you doing with me when you're hungry, get out of the way, don't you have long eyes, don't you see that Lao Tzu is busy?" The old man shouted angrily.
The prince did not dare to be silent at this time, and lay on the wall, smelling the fragrance of the simmered bones, and for a moment his saliva flowed, wondering if he could get some bone residue to eat. I'm so hungry that I can't do it, if I continue like this, it won't be long before I can only die in this Lu Town.
The night was still thick, and the sound of gongs and drums sounded from time to time in the sky, and I don't know who was dead again, and at this time the prince heard the sound of gongs and drums, and his mood was so sad, how could he use words to say. I don't want to leave, I can't leave, the only hope is pinned on this old man, in case the old man doesn't give him food, it is possible to die here.
A big yellow dog swaggered over, squatting beside the old man, sniffing his clothes from time to time, and wagging his tail wildly. In the face of this big yellow dog, the prince sighed to himself, if he was such a dog, presumably the old man would not be so unkind to himself.
The old man took a bone from the pot that had been tumbling for a long time, and threw it to the big yellow dog, and the prince smelled the fragrance, and at this time he also pounced on it quite shrewdly, and for a moment tore with the big yellow dog. However, the prince is more powerful than the big yellow dog, and the bone was obtained by the prince, but the big yellow dog kept barking at him, and tears were still flowing in his eyes, which could be said to be unwilling.
The prince was about to eat, but when a piece of wood swept over him and struck him on the back, he was in pain, and immediately let go of the bone in his hand, and hid and moaned. And the big yellow dog picked up the bones, whined for a while, and left triumphantly, but when he left, he still had to turn back in three steps, and he was very afraid that the prince would snatch the bones from his mouth.
The old man struck the prince with a piece of firewood, and the prince's back was already swollen, leaning against the wall, and the pain was unbearable for a while, and the old man saw that the second piece of wood was about to be struck again, if he didn't run at this time, how long would he stay? The prince limped away, and seeing that the prince was no longer by his side, the old man no longer pursued, roared, scolded his mother, and returned to his own hearth, and continued to simmer his bones.
Walking and walking, in a daze, I don't know how long I walked, and at this time I found that the night was still so thick that I couldn't dissolve, and I was walking around alone under the scattered lights, and I felt that it was not a way to do it. At this time, I thought of Uncle Hua, only by going to Uncle Hua's house can I have good food and wine, but after such a long journey, if I want to walk over with two feet, I don't know how to go to the Year of the Monkey.
No, walking and walking, he suddenly fell down on a street, and the bluestone under him was cold and piercing, and when he woke up at this time, the lights were only three or two o'clock, and there was no trace of pedestrians on the street.
At this time, when he looked up, he saw no one else, only the big yellow dog standing beside him, and the bones were still fine, and he didn't eat much meat. The prince knew what was going on, and the big yellow dog probably sympathized with him, so he saved himself from eating it, and gave up the bone to himself.
The prince didn't care so much at this time, he picked up the bone, bit it desperately, and in three or two strokes, he bit off all the flesh on it. At this time, when he looked at the big yellow dog again, he still kicked the fleshless bone with his own foot, of course, and kicked it to the prince's side, probably with the intention of making him eat even the bones.
The prince patted the dust on his hands and touched the head of the big yellow dog, and when he looked at the sky again, it was already a little dawn.
