Chapter 33: The Goddess Speaks of the Matchmaker
Su Yang entered the inn room, greeted Master Li, greeted each other, and then sat down with Sun Li and looked at the stage together.
This inn room is a good place to watch a play, with a good line of sight, spacious left and right, and it is very different from the crowding and crowding below.
The big drama has begun, and most of the people below are looking up at the stage, Su Yang looked over and saw a piece of the back of his head, and the snake pupil who passed by him just now could no longer be found.
When passing through Wangjiazhuang, Su Yang helped Wang Dahu save his son, the body of the Huang woman at that time was occupied by a snake, and her eyes were like snake pupils, and when the snake demon was destroyed by Su Yang, the eyes of the Huang woman returned to their original state, and the eyes that Shi Cai saw were too similar to the eyes of the Huang girl.
"Alas, Xu Xuan is in the trap. ”
Master Li looked at the play on stage and opened his mouth to comment.
They have watched this "The Legend of the White Snake" many times, but the performance of each troupe has a different singing tune, but this is the same boat to avoid the rain, borrowing an umbrella and returning an umbrella are highly similar, but this version of the Legend of the White Snake has just sung, and it is expressed that Bai Suzhen is husband has died, and the widow lives at home, and when performing, she also shows that she confuses Xu Xuan with her appearance, so that there is less true love between the two.
Seeing that Xu Xuan had feelings for Bai Suzhen, Master Li claimed that he was in the trap.
The silver taels of the marriage are treasury silver, and before the silver taels have been spent, Xu Xuan was put on the case and was distributed by the official.
"Where is this troupe?"
Su Yang felt that this drama was really good, and the words were correct and round, even if Su Yang hadn't heard much of the play, he could be substituted into the story.
"Those from Henan have been singing with us for a long time. ”
Master Li said: "Their troupe master's surname is Hong, we were at the same table at a birthday banquet, that guy, exquisite, left and right, this troupe can eat here, most of them are still in the mouth of this troupe master." ”
"When doing business, what you want is publicity. ”
Su Yang smiled: "Three points to do, seven points to say." ”
"What three points to do, seven points to say. ”
Master Li disagreed with this point of view and said: "If you want to do business, you should do it with seven points, and say that you have three points, if you don't have the ability, even if you blow the pheasant into a phoenix, what can you do?
Su Yang shook his head and smiled, and said, "Why should the pheasant blow into a phoenix, isn't the pheasant quite beautiful?"
The two of them whispered a few words, continued to look at the stage, and after a while, Bai Suzhen had already shown her true body, and the white python with a big bowl mouth was winding and flowing on the stage, making strange noises from time to time, but the person who played the errand was still steady, holding a long knife in his hand and playing against the white snake, and he was defeated and fled after a while.
"I don't know how much money this troupe spent on this snake. ”
Su Yang sighed.
"There is a person in their troupe who specializes in raising snakes, and that person usually sings on stage, but he is paid more. ”
Master Li knows this troupe quite well.
The scene of the White Snake was sung in just an hour, and in the later stage of the story, Bai Suzhen's true body was recognized, Xu Xuan wanted to run away, Bai Suzhen kept pestering Xu Xuan, and threatened that if Xu Xuan did not obey, he would let the people in the city lose their lives, and finally it was Fahai who gave the magic weapon, so that Xu Xuan suppressed Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing under the Leifeng Tower, Xu Xuan also saw through the red dust, worshiped Fahai Zen Master as a teacher, and became a monk.
After the play, before the class leader came, he said that the next scene to be sung was the Baolong Tu Broken Wupen Case.
After reporting like this, the people below also began to disperse, and there was a gap of an hour before the next play started, so that the people of the troupe could trim, and it was also time for dinner.
Su Yang was the east, ordered roast duck cooked food in this room, and used it with Master Li, before leaving with Sun Li and going down to visit the temple fair.
There are many small merchants and vendors of all kinds in the temple fair, some sell food, some sell all kinds of farm tools, and there are many exotic flowers placed outside.
Sun Li did not stop at the flowers, but walked directly to the place where all kinds of farm tools were sold, took them in his hands and looked at them carefully, and made a few gestures from time to time.
"We don't do farming, what do you think these do?"
Su Yang pulled Sun Li away.
"You can collect medicine......"
Sun Li looked at the farm tools on the table, reluctant to give up.
The two of them walked and watched at this temple fair, as long as Sun Li saw things like farm tools, he couldn't help but take a few more looks, and for things like strange flowers and plants, calligraphy, painting, paper and inkstone, he turned a blind eye and passed by very indifferently.
Su Yang bought two inkstones, a few brushes, a few medical scriptures found at the bookstall at the temple fair, and a few Taoist scriptures.
"Huh?"
At a grocery stall, Su Yang saw a wooden doll, the image was almost the same as the one that the Huang girl of Wangjiazhuang gave to Su Yang.
Seeing it, Su Yang didn't move forward immediately, looked at the groceries quietly, played with them one by one, and then slowly leaned on the wooden doll, wanting to take the wooden doll in his hand without a trace and examine it.
"Where did you get this from?"
Before Su Yang approached, a shriveled hand picked up the doll, and his voice was hoarse, asking the stall owner.
Su Yang squinted his eyes and saw that it was an old woman, short and ugly, with a wrinkled face, a shriveled figure, bulging eyes, more white and less black, dressed in black, holding a cane in one hand, her age looked like she was sixty or seventy years old, but her hair was like ink, and she didn't see a little gray.
"Goddess. ”
When the stall owner saw this person, he was sincerely frightened and said: "This doll was accidentally dropped by a Taoist priest in my house, and I saw that there was nothing strange about this doll, so I wanted to sell it for some money to spend......
This old woman is the most famous goddess in the city, surnamed Ma, and she is also the temple official of this city god temple, which makes the people of the entire Yishui County in awe.
Ma Shenpo pinched the wooden doll and looked at it for a while, then raised her eyes to look at the stall owner and asked, "How much do you want to sell it for?"
"Don't dare to collect money, don't dare to collect money......"
The stall owner waved his hand again and again, and said, "If you like it, take this thing." ”
There are many people who have received money from the horse goddess, and then they have experienced some unfortunate things and strange things, so few people have been contaminated with the money of the horse goddess.
Ma Shenpo held the wooden doll in one hand, smiled at the corner of her mouth, and said: "I am a calamity for you, this thing falls into your hands, sooner or later it will be found by demons, it is not a good thing for you, you give it to me, it is your blessing." ”
"Yes, yes, yes. ”
How dare the stall owner refute it?
Ma Shenpo was on crutches in one hand and a doll in the other, with an irrepressible smile on her face, and she turned around to leave, but her eyes couldn't help but look at Su Yang and Sun Li.
"Let's go. ”
Su Yang tilted his head and said a word, and he wanted to leave with Sun Li.
"Stay. ”
Ma Shenpo stretched out her crutches and stopped in front of Su Yang and Sun Li, her yin eyes looked at Sun Li, the smile on her face became stronger and stronger, and she ordered: "You two, follow me to the City God Palace." ”
Su Yang glanced at Sun Li, and saw that her eyes were also puzzled, although she was dissatisfied with the attitude of this goddess, she still asked calmly, "What's the matter?"
"It's a great joy for you!"
Ma Shenpo's eyes looked at Sun Li directly.
Su Yang looked at Sun Li again, could it be that there was something strange about Sun Li's body that was seen by this goddess, although he was suspicious, he asked Sun Li's opinion and said, "If it's a happy event, we might as well go?"
Sun Li nodded in agreement.
Ma Shenpo immediately took the lead, and walked to the City God's Palace, she was short and stiff, but her footsteps were fast, she walked through the steps, walked through the main gate, Ma Shenpo directly retreated the people who were incense, closed the door of the City God's Palace, so that there were only Ma Shenpo, Su Yang, and Sun Li in this big City God's Palace.
In the city god hall, the middle is dedicated to the city god, the left and right are the civil and military judges, the east and west sides of the hall are enshrined in the fierce gods and evil ghosts, at this time it is the city god temple fair, the incense in the hall is very strong, the door of the hall is closed at this time, the green smoke is swirling inside, so that the hall is gloomy a little.
"I don't know what the goddess said, what kind of happy event?"
Su Yang took the initiative to ask.
"Hehe, this is a great opportunity for you to get rich and make a fortune, and let this little girl fly on the branches!"
Ma Shenpo first put the wooden doll in a corner of the hall, stepped forward with a cane, and said to Su Yang with her face up.
"Please be more detailed. ”
Su Yang said.
"Do you see that there is a missing lady in this City God Temple?"
Ma Shenpo laughed twice and said, "Today, the old body is a matchmaker. ”
Su Yang narrowed his eyes, looked at the Ma Shenpo, and then looked at the statue of the city god high above.
"The city god is in the priesthood, high up, recently I want to find a wife, as long as it is beautiful, the yellow flower girl is good, I have also observed pilgrims recently, I have never seen a girl of this color, you look like this, you can also climb the high branches of the city god......"
As she spoke, she took out two red threads from her arms, tied one of them to the feet of the city god, and said, "After you go back today, you will buy a wedding dress and tie this ball of silk thread to your feet. ”
"I'm afraid it won't work. ”
Su Yang directly refused and said, "She has been married." ”
When Sun Li met Su Yang, he said that her husband died.
"How dare the kid deceive the old man?"
Ma Shenpo threw this red thread on Su Yang, and said in a strange voice: "This girl is jade and bingqing, she can't hide the eyes of the old body, after you go back, you will buy a wedding dress, tie this red thread to her feet, and tonight, our city god will go to greet her." ”
"Hoo ......"
Su Yang took a deep breath, endured the rudeness of this goddess for the second time, looked at Sun Li, and asked her opinion.
Sun Li shook his head slightly at Su Yang.
Good!
Su Yang opened his mouth to read the poem and said: "I advise the world to stop loving sex, people who love sex are obsessed with sex, and their hearts are righteous and naturally evil, how can there be evil in the body to deceive? This white snake is sung to Chenghuang, then he can't understand the verses said in this play, because she is beautiful, so he wants to forcibly take it home, regardless of the etiquette of this world, the laws of heaven." ”
Crumpled the silk thread into a ball in his hand and threw it aside, Su Yang stepped forward with his left hand, instantly locked Ma Shenpo's throat, and broke the two front teeth of Ma Shenpo with his right hand, and directly broke off these two teeth.
Can you speak?
Is there any politeness?
