Chapter 157: One More More
On the return trip, because there were three more people, Jin Hui, Liu Hongfang and Hu Xiu, Chai Shien and Liao Shui could not travel with their swords, so they had to hire a carriage. In order not to let Liu Hongfang scare passers-by, Chai Shien had to put the black cloak that originally belonged to Hu Xiu on Liu Hongfang's body, plus a black veil, which looked much better from the outside, but it still caused passers-by to turn around, thinking that this person had some strange disease, so he couldn't see people. Even the carriage driver quietly asked the god of firewood, "Childe, is there something wrong with this friend of yours?"
Today's Wuxuan Palace is different from the past, not to mention the strict guards, and it is not easy for even disciples like Chai Shien and Liao Shui to enter. In order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, in a remote place more than two miles away from Xianyou Mountain, in a remote place where no one is around, several people got out of the carriage.
Jin Hui and Liu Hongfang both looked very excited, one of them said, "I didn't expect to be able to go to Xianyou Mountain Mist Xuangong in my lifetime to open my eyes, I must have done a lot of good things in my last life!" The other said, "Wherever Engong goes, I will go, Wuxuan Palace, that is the place I longed for when I was alive!"
Liao Shui rolled his eyes and said, "We have to say the ugly things in front, this Fog Xuan Palace is not something that Senior Brother Chai and I can call the shots." Now Senior Brother Yun Songyun, who is in charge, will go to see him first when he arrives in a while, if he nods, everything is easy to say, if he does not agree, you can only go back obediently!"
"I think that as long as they are people from the Fog Xuan Palace, they are all kind-hearted and good people. Jin Hui pulled Liu Hongfang, the two stood side by side, and said pitifully, "I won't drive out these two desperate poor people!"
A few people walked as they spoke, and suddenly, a weak and helpless figure came into their sight. In the desert of the desert, on the winding dirt road, a child wrapped in a shabby and ill-fitting white robe was kowtowing step by step.
The yellow sand is all over the field, the barren grass is overgrown, the autumn is cool, and everywhere is the color of decay and decadence. Only this child, like a vigorous newborn grass, firmly and resolutely bowed in the direction where he was going, and bowed again.
Chai Shien felt a little strange, there are no temples and Taoist temples here, this child is alone, why did he come here? Liao Shui trotted a few steps after him, and stopped the child, "Hey, why are you here alone, where are you going, your father?"
The boy stopped kneeling and turned to face Liao Shui with his face raised. Just a glance, Liao Shui only glanced at it, and was attracted by this face and the pair of eyes on this face.
This is a little girl who is only three or four years old, and her face is pure and beautiful, and people will be fascinated by just one glance. Especially a pair of big eyes, as if hiding the sea of stars, even Liao Shui is my pity.
"Sister, are you talking to me?" the little girl tightened her already very shabby robe, revealing a pure and beautiful smile, "I don't have a father, so there is only one person." However, I am going to a place where I will forget all my worries when I hear about it. But the heart must be sincere, and it can only be reached by prostrating the head one step at a time. ”
"What kind of place are you talking about?" Liao Shui had the same question as Chai Shien, except for Xianyou Mountain, there were only barren mountains and wild mountains. The little girl said to her, "It's the Fog Palace, I'm going to the Fog Palace!"
At this time, Chai Shien also came over, and when he heard the little girl say the words "Wuxuan Palace", he became as alert as Liao Shui. Could it be that this little girl also has a map of Xianyou Mountain in her hand? Liao Shui squatted down and looked directly into the little girl's eyes, "What's your name, where did you hear about the Wuxuan Palace, do you have a map in your hand?"
Liao Shui said while gesturing, hoping to make the little girl understand. The little girl said, "Sister, my name is Qingbu. I was told that the reason why people suffer in this life is because they have done too many wrong things in their previous lives. I think that everyone else has a father and mother, but I don't, it must be that I have done something bad in my previous life. I heard that all the immortals live in the Wuxuan Palace, and I want to go to those immortals and ask them what I can do to stop suffering. I don't know what the map you are talking about, sister, is that map important?"
Chai Shien watched coldly from the sidelines, Qingbu's little face was dirty, except for the white shabby robe, there was only a small cowhide kettle, and there was not even a baggage. Liao Shui took the opportunity to talk about Qingbu, and then shook his head at Chai Shien, Qingbu didn't have that map.
"Brother and sister, are you also going to the Fog Xuan Palace?" Qingbu's lips were oozing blood from the dry cracking, and she blinked her eyes and said, "I've been here for two days and two nights, but I haven't seen anything in the Fog Palace. ”
For two days and two nights, even if an adult keeps looking for kowtows, he will not be able to bear it, let alone just a weak girl of three or four years old. Chai Shien asked Qingbu, "What have you eaten in the past two days?" Qingbu thought for a while, "The day before yesterday, I found two fruits, although they were sour, they were still edible. Yesterday I didn't find anything and ran out of water......"
She looked at the burden on Chai Shien and Liao Shui, her throat moved, and she still didn't say anything after all. Liao Shui couldn't bear it, took out some water and a baked cake and handed it to the green cloth. Qingbu thanked him very politely before taking it, and instead of gobbling it up as he imagined, he ate it very cherished in small bites. Chai Shien pulled Liao Shui aside, "Senior sister, what are you going to do with this child?"
"Jin Hui and Liu Hongfang are already a headache, although this child is pitiful, he can't bring it back to the Fog Xuan Palace to cause trouble for Senior Brother Yun. Liao Shui felt very sorry for Qingbu, but taking someone back to the Wuxuan Palace at will was not something she should do or could do. Chai Shien said, "Senior sister, have you ever thought that such a young child who needs the help of his parents appears here, and keeps saying that he wants to find the Wuxuan Palace, is it really as simple as it seems on the surface?"
"What do you want?" Liao Shui saw that he seemed to have an idea, Chai Shien said, "I want to take her back and hand her over to Senior Brother Yun, if there is a problem, you can also find out the black hand behind it." If there is no problem, you can also give her a place to stay for the time being. Senior sister, in fact, you also feel very sorry for Qingbu, right?"
Liao Shui rolled her eyes at him, and she had to say that Chai Shien's words entered her heart. Liao Shui walked up to Qingbu and said, "Qingbu, brother and sister know where the Wuxuan Palace is, are you willing to go with us?"
