Volume 1 The Human World Chapter 6 At this time, the fate is over, and the mountain god sends people back
At this time, the outside of the temple was full of snow, and although there were broken tiles and leaky walls inside the temple, it was not as warm as spring, but Han Chi and Lao Zhang, the clothes inside were already soaked, and they were all in cold sweat, purely scared out.
Just talking about Zhao Ji's question, Han and Zhang had the illusion that all their thoughts were showing in front of Zhao Ji's eyes, whether it was because of this people's secret minds or whether there was a demon method that could know what people thought in their hearts, but the two of them couldn't figure it out.
In fact, when Zhao Ji was telling the story just now, Han Chi and Lao Zhang both followed Zhao Ji's tone, if he thinks it is good, then it must be good, and if he thinks it is bad, it must be bad.
It's not that I knew that this Zhao Ji was a big demon at the time, but the two of them have been mixed together for a long time, this prince has worked in the mansion, and he has worked hard in the Shangshu house, not to mention that he is working for this scholarly family, he is really a subordinate, if you flatter, you have to be twenty points careful, and the greedy for money is easy to say, those vassal and elegant you really don't know how to deal with it, a worker has to do some literature and art, isn't this embarrassing? It's just that it's not difficult for Han and Zhang, it's just the right medicine, and the rest is to earn a few points less.
Let's say that among these people, the lower the status, the more things will happen, even if they are a little unsatisfactory, they will have to let you peel off the skin, but the higher the position, the more amiable they are, and their temper will be much better, Han Chi and Lao Zhang don't know why.
But the so-called seeing the sages and thinking together, these two people are learning according to this high person, saying that these two people are inspired to be immortals in their hearts, and they learn more to speak, do things, and demeanor, and naturally have different feelings.
After such a tempering, not to mention these things, it is the contempt of ordinary people for these poor people to seek immortals, which is not something that ordinary people can bear, so how can there be many tacit understandings?
People can naturally find gods when they see more, of course, demons can also be discovered, not like people, they are not immortals, they must be demons, but how can they not find the extraordinaryness of this Zhao Ji?
Han Chi naturally knew that this question could not be fooled, so he replied truthfully in his heart, "Actually, not long after Mr. sat down, Mr. Zhang pointed to Mr.'s shoes again."
Lao Zhang heard Han Chi call "Old Zhang" Originally, he glared at Han Chi angrily, but his face improved a lot after hearing this, knowing that this was Han Chi being careful with himself.
Zhao Ji was a little confused, so he asked again, "What do you mean?"
This Lao Zhang was also frightened a lot, and he had the courage to be a thief, so he hurriedly replied, "Mr. may not have paid attention, the wind and snow are so big outside, this way to come, how can this shoe be so clean, that is, there is a kind of light skill called flying on the grass in the rivers and lakes, and if you can go all the way here, then it is not a fairy who is better than a fairy.
Zhao Ji was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, but he seemed to say to himself, "It's really wonderful, I think I, Zhao Ji, am the first in the world in all kinds of changes, but I don't want two mortals to see through it at a glance! Man is the spirit of all things, and this is true to me."
Zhao Ji said this, but Han and Zhang couldn't tell whether they liked it or disliked, so they could only lower their heads, like children who made mistakes.
Zhao Ji finished laughing but raised his hand casually, Han Chi fixed his eyes, but he was half frightened to death, there was no magic divine light shooting, but something flew in front of him, Han Chi hurriedly reached out to pick it up, but it was Zhao Ji who threw over a small white cloth bag.
This bag still has some weight, Han Chi opened it and saw it, and found that it was actually some scattered silver taels, about a dozen to twenty taels, Han Chi is always inaccurate about the weight of silver taels, to Lao Zhang, the silver can only be said to be an accurate number, at the beginning Han Chi was also a magic skill, clamoring to learn from Lao Zhang, thinking of this Han Chi handed the bag to Lao Zhang, Lao Zhang started to weigh it, the smile on his face unconsciously leaked out, stretched out two fingers to Han Chi, and shook it again, but the fingers did not move, still two fingers stretched out。
Looking at the gesture, Han Chi knew that the silver in this bag was twenty-two taels, which was really not a small amount.
Zhao Ji only thought that he didn't see the small movements of the two, but continued, "These silver coins are real objects, not conjured by me with spells, you two can use them with confidence, just don't be wronged by this Taoist priest on the road." The mountain gate of this Taoist priest is in Dafengling, Qianyuan Mountain, Dingzhou, and there is no magic prohibition in that mountain gate, so it is difficult for you two to come and go there. ”
Zhao Ji turned around and wanted to leave, but suddenly turned around and asked, "Do you two have anything else to ask?"
Han Zhang and the others shook their heads like rattles, but Lao Zhang's heart couldn't stand it anymore, and Han Chi was afraid that Lao Zhang would strangle himself before he died.
Zhao Ji looked at the two people who were in sync with God, and he didn't know what to say, in fact, with these two people, he understood what he should say and understood, and it was useless to say what he shouldn't say. felt that the fate was over at this time, and finally said, "That's it, the matter is over here, you and I will say goodbye, the mountains are high and the road is far away, and the end of the world will meet again." ”
After saying that, as soon as he turned around, there was a breeze in the temple, and the breeze lifted up, and this Zhao Ji disappeared without a trace.
Han Chi and Lao Zhang breathed a sigh of relief together, and the two of them spread on the ground, this dialogue with the big demon was too hard, it was really tiring and tiring.
Just a moment later, the two tacitly glanced at the money bag in Lao Zhang's hand, and the two exchanged glances, and they could read the meaning of each other's hearts.
Just look at the expressions of these two people who got into the eyes of Qian, who is this person who wants to cultivate immortals and seek the Tao, this Tao can't blame the forces of Han and Zhang, it's just that they are scared.
The two were not unvirtuous people, and after collecting the money, they began to take care of the body of the old Taoist priest, first moving it to a sheltered place from the wind, and then finding some straw to cushion under him.
Seeing that the old Taoist priest's face was withered and pale, the two of them were speechless for a while, so they only knew that the Taoist priest's surname was Deng, but he didn't even leave a full name, which was really uncomfortable.
The two of them guarded the body of the old Taoist priest, so they could only do this, but they couldn't do anything else for the time being.
There was a rare calm in the second half of the night, and the children's cries soon ceased, and the rough man in the middle woke up, but the woman whispered a few words, and nothing else happened.
But on this night, no one could sleep except the children.
When Han Chi and Lao Zhang Tian were bright, they got up early, went out of the temple gate, and found that the heavy snow had stopped, but the world was silvery white, which only made people's hearts open up.
The two of them found some suitable wood in the forest, and made a simple stretcher in the Taoist temple, which was not in the village and there was no shop in the back, so they could only carry the body of the old Taoist priest on the road, and wait in front of the market to buy some coffins.
If the price is right, you must buy a mule cart again, if the price is not suitable, you can only hire a mule cart before you plan.
The two of them hurriedly packed up and were about to go on the road, but they just walked a short distance with the body of the old Taoist priest, but found that the rough-looking man and the woman with a child in her arms had also packed up and left the temple gate, but the itinerary of the two groups was different, one to the north and the other to the south.
It's just that before she thought about it, after the woman went out, she called to Han and Zhang, "The two righteous men stay for the time being."
In fact, after the man woke up, the two sides did not warm up, this is human nature, the so-called usual meeting, the so-called defense of people is indispensable, so he said it thoroughly, this old Taoist priest saved the child's life, but it can't be said that it has anything to do with Han and Zhang, Han and Zhang sent the old Taoist body back to their hometown, but they were entrusted by Zhao Ji, and what does it have to do with others?
Han and Zhang stopped in the snow, and the woman walked over with the child in her arms, and there was still a distance of about three meters from the two, but she knelt down with a "poof".
"I'll take Xiaobao to kowtow to my benefactor a few times."
After hearing this, Han Zhang and the others hurriedly put down the body of the old Taoist priest and put it aside, but they didn't dare to stand it.
The woman kowtowed more than a dozen times, and then got up and said to Han and Zhang, "Thank you two Gao Yi, it stands to reason that the concubine should take Xiaobao to help the benefactor, but the concubine mother and son have reasons that they can't help themselves, so they can only wish the two righteous people a safe journey, if the two need our mother and son in the future, there should be nothing to do."
After the woman finished speaking, she saluted Han and Zhang again.
Han Chi and Lao Zhang glanced at each other, but they didn't say anything, it seems that this woman is also from a big family, she is a sensible person, she still has some opinions about this woman before leaving, but it is not her own business, how can she stand up for this old Taoist?
Now that the woman is chasing after these dozen heads, and these words are these words, Han Chi also feels that it is enough, and he must not be grateful to others for what the old Taoist priest asks.
The two didn't say anything, just returned the salute, and then carried the body of the old Taoist priest and continued on the road, where did the woman and the man go, what will happen to this child in the future, but it is not in the thinking of Han and Zhang, people are self-aware, but these two people understand very well, they can't manage other people's affairs, and they don't have the ability to manage, and they take this journey well.
Walking forward is the way down the mountain, Han Chi is in front of Lao Zhang in the back, Han Chi seems to see an old man in the forest saluting this side when he turns, but when he goes to see, he finds that the forest is empty, Han Chi hurriedly told Lao Zhang about it.
Lao Zhang thought for a while and said, "It may be that the mountain god feels the benevolence and righteousness of the old Taoist, and this is sending the old Taoist back to his hometown."
Han Chi thought about it for a while but felt that it was very possible, so the two of them quickly stopped their pace, and saluted to the forest just now, and after the salute was closed, they went on the road again, but they didn't think that they couldn't go far, they had already turned to the foot of the mountain, and there was someone in front of them.
The smoke rises, but it is a peaceful pastoral morning scene. Things are easy and difficult in the world
It's just that the two of them are a little strange, this mountain road seems to be much shorter than expected.
