Chapter 267: Together
If it hadn't known that this was not a place for beating, it would have slapped its paws on the little fox that was licking its paws leisurely.
We're worried, but you're stealing?
Kill you fishy fox!
"Chirp!" whispered twice, and the fox got out first.
In the night, it went to a remote part of the courtyard and sat down, although it was a fox, it looked quite dignified and charming.
After a while, a petite white fox came running after him and sat down opposite it.
Sure that there were no outsiders nearby, the fox opened his mouth: "Chirp"
"Chirp"
Although people can't understand it, there is no problem for the two foxes to communicate.
"It turns out that you really met a nobleman, Su Ziji is the one my clan is waiting for?"
The little fox was a little unsure: "I don't know if it's for the time being, I still need to wait a while to be sure." ”
"So you just stayed because of this golden olive?" the fox reminisced about what he had just tasted, but gave him understanding: "If I can get such a great opportunity, I am afraid that I will be reluctant to leave." ”
"However, why don't you go back and report this?" Immediately, it narrowed its eyes again, and said dissatisfiedly: "Do you know that the situation in Qingqiu is sad day by day, and with such benefits, you didn't go back immediately to report the clansmen, which is really hateful." ”
"You know, even if there is no such tribulation, many young foxes will have to line up to absorb this aura. ”
"Many young foxes have postponed their metamorphosis!"
"I'm not, I don't, I haven't noticed it for long!" argued the little fox, "and it doesn't happen very often, every once in a while, there is a change." ”
"I'm still shallow, so I will stay in this house, but I have to be taken in because I was hunted down by alchemists. Later, I was brought into the capital, there are many masters here, and I didn't dare to move around at will, let alone break through the capital barrier at will, for fear of touching and attracting attention. ”
He told the fox about the encounter with the Kraken.
"The Kraken is powerful, it is a big monster, I was about to leave Su Ziji that day, and I was found and caught by it. If he hadn't escaped while he was devouring the wild gods, at this moment, it might have caused trouble for Qingqiu, and it was obviously eyeing Qingqiu, saying that it was to recover Wei Shizu's treasures......"
"Wei Shizu's treasure?" the fox really didn't know much about this, but it didn't doubt the little fox's words either.
Some things have appeared, and they will know the truth and falsehood when they are checked, and if they tell a lie, they will be punished.
"Since you have encountered this incident, it is the right decision to stay in the capital. However, in the city, it should not be taken lightly. When I came, I found that there were also big demons in the capital, although they were also suppressed like us, but they were really killed, and before the human Taoist priests arrived, we were dead and had no place to be buried. ”
Thinking about it this way, sure enough, the little fox is the best choice to nest in the Su Mansion honestly like this.
"Not only that, but there's another reason. The little fox showed a thoughtful expression, which was particularly ridiculous on the fox's face.
"The Tao should not be passed on lightly, and the Dharma should not be taught lightly. ”
"You say, this golden olive, the value is so high, we eat it, what is the equivalent price?"
Hearing this, the fox was silent at first, then came to his senses, pounced on it, and tore the little fox with his grab: "This is why you eat alone?"
"Chirp"
"Chirp"
They were in a mess, and in the bedroom full of golden olives just now, Su Ziji, who was lying asleep with Ye Buregret, had already arrived at the Dragon Palace again.
There is a faint fog around, but the fog is not thick at this time, and the surrounding scenery can still be clearly seen, Su Ziji has long been accustomed to such a situation of dreaming of entering the Dragon Palace at night, and he did not panic, and walked towards the front.
But to Su Ziji's surprise, not far away, there was a force projected from the sky, and the traveler who was shivering in the cold weather was suddenly enveloped by the bright sunshine, and the feeling of bathing in a very comfortable state made Su Ziji have a feeling of wanting to close his eyes and fall asleep.
And he did.
"Rainbow?" Glancing at the rainbow that suddenly appeared in the sky above the Dragon Palace, Su Ziji could feel that it was calling him, and there was no danger.
He followed his instinct and let it go, and at the moment he closed his eyes, he only heard a "poof", and at the first dragon case in the main hall, a gold seal was hanging above, and at this time, the subtle golden light flashed, and suddenly flew away from the main hall, as if he was alive, and he actually greeted Su Ziji directly, circled around Su Ziji happily, and flew towards the rainbow.
And Su Ziji, who was surrounded by the golden seal, seemed to have an invisible connection with the golden seal, and actually floated towards the rainbow.
In another place, a young white-scaled dragon also floated up with its eyes closed, as if sleepwalking.
Separated by a golden seal, Su Ziji and the young dragon were both floating on the rainbow, and the thin mist below was actually falling from the sky, but now there was fog around, but it was obviously a little different from the fog on the ground.
In the ethereal mist, it quickly transformed into a shrine and a small temple, and sometimes the mist would float to Su Ziji or the young dragon, once it came into contact, Su Ziji or the young dragon could immediately hear the murmuring prayers coming from inside.
"Zhang Erzhu, a believer, pray that the god of water can bless Zhangjia Village with smooth wind and rain, and this year there will be no drought or flood, and the crops will be ...... well."
"Believer Zhao Wang, pray that the gods can bless me to give birth to a child in my womb safely......"
"Believer Jiang Yang, pray to the gods to bless my son to return safely......"
"Nobu ......"
When Su Ziji came into contact with the fog and heard these voices, his eyebrows sometimes stretched, and sometimes suddenly, as if the joys and sorrows of the world had turned into countless sounds, from his ears to his heart.
There are still a hundred miles away from Shun'an Mansion, and the night is dark, and the travelers who did not arrive at the inn in time can only try to choose some shrines and temples to stay temporarily.
Although these places, especially those located in the countryside, often have some strange legends, the Qi family and their group of more than a dozen people who did not catch up with the inn have no other way than to live in the shrine.
"It looks dilapidated, but it's clean inside. Qi Hongxin took a closer look, it was an ancient ancestral hall, and looking around at it, it was not too dirty, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
Because it was dark, the shrine was very dark, there was a smoky black stele in the courtyard, there were two rows of side houses on the left and right, the rain was still endless, Qi Hongxin walked into the main hall and bowed to the black statue smoked in the shrine: "It seems that this is not dilapidated, there is incense, but why don't you see the temple?"
"I don't know, there was a big drought in the local area last year, everyone fled, or the temple was dispersed. ”
"Then let's stay for one night!" Qi Hongxin looked at it: "There will be no one, the window paper is freshly pasted, it may be taken care of by a nearby village." ”
If it weren't for his poor health, he slowed down during the day, and he wouldn't have had to let his family servants accompany him to live in such a place at night.
Seeing that his wife ordered someone to put sacrifices on the statue of the god whose face he couldn't see clearly in the shrine, because he lived here in the end, Qi Hongxin, who wanted to preach, swallowed back what he wanted to say.
"Hey, I originally thought that my father would take us back to Beijing this time, but I didn't expect that I would go to Xinfu to take office again. I heard that Shun'an Mansion is not prosperous, it is worse than the previous mansions where you stayed, Dad, everyone else is a person who walks to a high place, why are you stuck in this prefect's official position?"
His son, a teenager, couldn't help but complain.
"In this world, how can there be a reason for not being promoted if you are rotated in the prefect again and again? Son, I am afraid that someone is deliberately making things difficult for your father and making you stumble. ”
Qi Hongxin smiled bitterly, he should have been a dignified father, but because he has been rotating in the prefect for more than ten years, he has obviously done a good job, but he has never been able to be promoted, and he has also caused his son to lose the opportunity to study in the capital, so that his wife from the family can run with him, and he is really uncomfortable in his heart.
But in the face of his son, he couldn't say any complaints, and he had to scold him seriously: "If you say this, don't say it again in the future, I can be a Baili Marquis again and again, and it is already the emperor's grace ......."
As soon as he said this, he suddenly had an itchy throat and coughed violently.
The wife, who was directing the little maid to clean up her things, immediately came over, patted her back, and helplessly persuaded: "He is a child, I don't understand your suffering, but I understand that I don't blame you for this, and it is good to be the prefect again and again, as you said, it is the emperor's grace, we don't have to compare with others." ”
then educated his son: "You don't understand the things in the officialdom, my mother doesn't blame you, but you should know that your father is a good official, no matter how big or small the official position is, as long as he can do something practical for the people, he has fulfilled his duty as an official." As for whether to be promoted or not, this is not something that officials should think about themselves, this is a decision from above. Thunder, rain and dew are all Jun's grace, if you want to take the imperial examination in the future, you must first control your mouth, you must not change your temperament, only a grievance remains, you know?"
said that the young man bowed his head and admitted that he was wrong, and Qi's wife went to work elsewhere.
Then she didn't take a sip of water, and after being busy, she bowed to the statue of the shrine and muttered prayers, obviously she was also worried about this trip to Shun'an Mansion.
Originally, it was just to calm down with this action, and I didn't expect to get a response, and I didn't want to suddenly look up and startle the lady.
"What's wrong?" Qi Hongxin, who heard the prestige, looked at it, and stood up in shock, it turned out that the black statue was lit up, and on the half-old statue, there was a pale white light lit up, and there was a faint murmuring sound, as if there were believers praying for wishes.
Seeing this, except for Qi Hongxin, everyone immediately knelt down and bowed again and again.
“......”
"What is the sign that this vision appeared when you checked in?"
Qi Hongxin has been an official in the local government for more than ten years, and because he knows that it is impossible to be promoted, he simply does not go to the camp, and concentrates on studying and governing the people, and gradually becomes stronger, and he can't help but be shaken at this time.
