About seven or eight years ago, there was a family surnamed Li in Wenqu Lane, Taihefang, and the Li couple raised their eyebrows, but they had been seeking children for many years without success, because the Li family was always unwilling to accept the child, and the Li woman gradually passed the age of being able to have children.

On a cold day that year, there were snowflakes floating in the sky over a radius of hundreds of miles in Yujing City, and the cold wind was cold. The couple braved the cold to go to the great Wuxiang Temple outside the city to make a vow, and met the abbot Master Wuxiang in the temple, and the master said to the two: The Buddha has known the sincerity of the two of you, and has sent down good fortune, you must be kind to cause and effect in the future, and you must not be deceived.

Seeing that the snow still showed no signs of stopping, the Li couple hurried back to the city because they were worried that the snow would be congested. When passing by the Wangyu Pavilion outside the city, they found a small figure curled up in the pavilion, and the two hurriedly approached to check, only to find that it was a ragged and unkempt little baby, shivering all over his body, and his breath was weak. And in the arms of the little baby, he was holding a little cat.

The couple saw that they were pitiful, and they encountered cold and heavy snow, if they ignored it, I am afraid that this little baby would not be able to live.

Helplessly, the little baby refused to let go of the little cat, so Li Shi took it home together, and after feeding the little baby a decoction to ward off the cold, Mrs. Li took care of it.

I fed the little cat some liquid cat food, and it was able to run quickly, but the little baby still did not wake up. Li then hurriedly went to invite the doctor in the workshop, and after checking the pulse, although the doctor's breath was weak, he was not worried about his life, and he only needed to recuperate for two days and wake up. Only then did the Li couple put their minds at ease.

The little black cat had been silently guarding the bedside, refusing to leave half a step, and rarely eating.

After two days, the little baby woke up, and her spirit was much better, and after eating some liquid food, Li asked her what her name was, how old she was this year, where she was from, and whether there were relatives at home.

The little baby held the little cat in her arms, stroked it gently, and said sadly: "Auntie, my name is like this, I am twelve years old this year, I don't remember where I am from, and I have no relatives at home."

Hearing what happened to her, Li's eyes were also filled with tears, and she remembered what Master Wuxiang said in her mind at this moment, thinking that this little girl was the blessing sent to them by the Buddha, and she immediately smiled and was overjoyed.

So she asked her if she was willing to stay in the house, and the little girl could feel that the couple was showing their true feelings for her, not like a fake, and her heart was naturally willing, so she responded happily and called her father and mother on the spot.

Li Shi Wenyan comforted, "Good boy, you have suffered, this will be your home in the future, and you will be our child." ”

Since then, the old couple has regarded the little girl as their own, and they have taken care of her, and they will lick a few new clothes for her every year.

Once, the little girl made a simple bamboo flute at home, and when Li found out, he spent ten taels of silver to buy a new one for her at the musical instrument shop that day.

After two years like this, the little girl is almost in her prime, she is slim, knowledgeable and courteous, filial and obedient, just like a lady; At the same time, the little Xuan cat has also grown up, and the mice that used to appear in the kitchens of Wenqu Lane have rarely appeared again in the past year.

The Li couple became more and more happy and loving to her, and began to slowly look for a good husband for her.

Wenqu Lane is said to be the hometown of Emperor Yazi, but I don't know how many years have passed, and there has never been a decent reader in the alley. In the spring of this year, two nobles came to the alley, one was an official in a scarlet robe, full of official authority; One is a middle-aged Confucian man in a green shirt, gentle and elegant. The Confucian scholar and the Li family became neighbors.

After another two months, a guest came to the Confucian family, the two of them were drinking tea and discussing politics, and when they were talking happily, they suddenly heard Xiao Sheng in the courtyard next door, and their voices were like grievances and admiration, and crying and complaining. The two were immediately amazed and joined forces to visit. When the guest first saw Li Rushi, he was immediately shocked, and because of his rare voice in the world, polite conversation, and good temperament, he had a heart of love for talent, so he discussed with Li's family, and was willing to pay a thousand gold, and asked Li Rushi to go to Qingping Lefang to sit in the pavilion, without signing the deed, and without restricting his freedom. Although Mrs. Li was reluctant, Li was moved by her daughter and responded. Unexpectedly, the world made people, or karma created it, and the Li couple died of illness one after another, and Li Ru was homeless again, so he chose to stay in Qingping Lefang.

And the little cat, never abandoned, silently guarding the place she couldn't see.

......

Shang Qing dropped the bait in the Phoenix Wing Pavilion, and now he just waits for the fish to take the bait, everything is ready, and only the east wind is owed.

Before leaving, he still didn't forget to continue to tease Li Ru is a few words, which made Li Ru is pretty face crimson and ashamed and angry, but in addition to saying a few words of "Dengzi", he was helpless.

In the twenty-third year of Tianfu, on August 12, at the first moment of the first month, Shangqing went out of Qingping Lefang, the lights in the city are still there, people come and go, and it is a prosperous world.

According to the record of half of the "Ten Thousand Demons" of the Demon Hunting Division: "All demons must first enlighten their spiritual wisdom before they can practice." ”

The demons under this world are generally divided into three categories: those who have not been transformed within 500 years of cultivation, those who have been transformed within 1,000 years of cultivation for more than 500 years, and those who have practiced for more than 1,000 years.

After the end of the "Ten Thousand Buddhas and Demons" incident, the thousand-year-old demons in the demon clan were driven to the depths of the million mountains, in order to prevent the demon clan from harming the world again, the Buddha Gate built more than 100 temples in the periphery of the million mountains, and in each temple, there is a monk who is not less than the cultivation of the Arhat realm.

These temples scattered on different hills actually form a perfect defensive formation, and the demons want to come out unless they slaughter the Buddhist monks sitting in these temples.

This has also led to the fact that most of the unfinished demons that exist in the world today are those who have not yet transformed, and there are few demons who have transformed into shapes, even if they appear in front of people, they are nothing more than relying on illusions.

Moreover, at the beginning of the establishment of the Daqian Demon Hunting Division, with the help of the Qi Technique of the Qintian Prison Supervisor, a super-large-scale cleanup of the hidden shape-shifting demons was carried out.

In the territory of Daqian, there are almost no demons of transformation.

Unconsciously, Shang Qing came to the big peach tree, and when he looked up, most of the fading gibbous moon was covered by a dark cloud. The wind suddenly rises, and the red diamond on the peach tree moves with the wind, and if the beautiful woman dances, it is enchanting and colorful.

Those Hongling gradually turned into women of various appearances, all dressed in red, including Xiao Meiniang, Dongfang Xi, and the concubines of Zhufu... There are people who Shang Qing knows, and there are people who don't. At this time, all of them were around him.

For a while, he was in the midst of flowers, and it was also countless charming and charming flowers.

Shang Qing didn't care about the changes in the surrounding environment, he looked at Dongfang Xi in women's clothes, his eyes were very strange, and he had only known Dongfang Xi for a few hours, and it was a kind of almost child's play.

Suddenly, Dongfang Xi walked out of the crowd, put his hands on Shang Qing's shoulders, exhaled hot air in his ears, and his voice was soft, "Qinglang, would you like to go to Wushan with the slave family?" ”

Shang Qing suddenly felt chilled, and for no reason, he had goosebumps.

He shook off Dongfang Xi's hands and scolded: "Okay, you Dongfang Xi, I treat you as a brother, you actually want to have a monkey with me?" ”

Dongfang Xi was stunned, and then shook Shang Qing's hand affectionately, Chu Chu was pitiful, "Qinglang, how can you give birth to a monkey, the sisters all want to have monkeys with you, let's give birth to a lot of monkeys, okay?" ”

Shang Qing was instantly overwhelmed by flowers, and the pointer in the gossip plate on his wrist rotated wildly.

Under the peach tree, I saw countless red lings wrapping Shang Qing, and those red lings were shrinking tighter and tighter. And in the shadows not far away, there was a pair of dark green eyes, glowing with a monstrous and fierce light.

Within Hongling, Shang Qing was wrapped in a golden circle of light, and those Hongling failed to hurt him in the slightest.

Dongfang Xi's eyes were full of resentment and unwillingness, and his body began to become more and more blurry and gradually disintegrated.

"It seems that this kitten is still practicing, but I don't know where to learn this clever illusion."

The red lings around Shang Qing quickly dissipated, but another scene appeared in front of him. The sky was slightly dark, and countless snowflakes fell from the dome, falling on the Yujing City, on the Wangyu Pavilion, and on Shang Qing who was standing outside the Wangyu Pavilion.

In the Wangyu Pavilion, there was a little beggar curled up, and there was a little black cat in his arms. Shang Qing could feel that the beggar's breathing was getting weaker and weaker, and the little Xuanmao's voice was getting lower and lower.

A middle-aged couple came from a distance to step on the snow, entered the pavilion, and carried the little beggar into the city, and the little beggar still hugged the little cat tightly even if he was dying.

The scene in front of Shang Qing switched again, and he came to a family in the city, which was not a big family, but it was also a petty bourgeois family. He saw a little girl taking care of a little cat, and the little cat was also inseparable. The little girl was reading, and she was quietly on the desk; The little girl was giving a, and she was listening to it with great enjoyment.....

The little girl is slowly growing up, and the little cat is also slowly growing up.

Later, the little girl was taken away by a strange man, and the little black cat was forced to stay at home. Because of the absence of the little girl by her side, the little Xuan Mao became thinner and thinner, and later with the death of the Li couple, the little Xuan Mao became more and more anxious.

One night, the little cat went out of the house and quickly disappeared into the night.

For a cat, Yujing City is so big that it gets disoriented. For a long time, the cats were bullied by other cats, sleeping in the open, and it was very miserable.

That night, the cat was hungry and dragged its tired body into a house where the lights were brilliant and people came and went, and it was very afraid. Moreover, there are pavilions and pavilions in this house, halls and halls, hundreds of corridors turning, winding paths, trees, mountains and stones, and there are countless more.

The picture suddenly interrupted, on a high-rise building full of lanterns, as long as it was night, there would be a black cat lying on the roof of the building, rain or shine.

And this high-rise building is the Lefang building of Qingping Lefang on South Zuifeng Street.
