Volume 1 The Walking Boy in the World Chapter 23 Departure
Seeing this, Yu Yu hurriedly stepped forward to comfort: "Brother Ma, something has happened, don't be sad." ”
Ma Xiaoer sighed, felt sorry for himself, and looked at Yu Yu for a long time before he said, "I said Yu boy, what are your plans next?"
Yu Yu was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Let's see." ”
Ma Xiaoer covered his face with his hands, and scolded in pain: "You stunned green, why did I provoke you so well, did you see it?"
Saying that, he raised his hand and pointed ahead, Ma Xiaoer continued: "Do you see this road? Follow this avenue, go southwest for eight hundred miles, we will meet the first town, that town is built near the river, on the riverside, there is a ferry, when you get there, you take a boat down the river, I go upstream, as for why you want to go the other way, you don't have to wonder, because that ferry is the closest to our Wuzhi Mountain, and the scale is also the largest, and there is only a boat there that can take you to the East China Sea, when the time comes, I will send you on the boat, and we will part ways." ”
Yu Yu asked in surprise, "Brother Ma, are you going to leave here too?"
It's okay not to ask this, but this question immediately aroused Ma Xiaoer's sadness, his face fell instantly, and he said dejectedly: "Let's go." ”
Yu Yu didn't ask much when he saw Ma Xiaoer's appearance, and the two of them embarked on a long journey.
Leaving Wuzhi Mountain, walking out of Linshan Town, Yu Yu knew how big the outside world was, in the evening, Yu Yu turned around and looked into the distance, and found that Wuzhi Mountain was still clearly visible, Yu Yu secretly calculated the distance in his heart, and found that the two had walked nearly fifty miles unconsciously, but Yu Yu felt that Wuzhi Mountain was still in front of him.
Sparsely populated along the way, passing by one or two villages, Ma Xiaoer also turned a blind eye, leading Yu Yu to hurry, this will be nightfall, Ma Xiaoer directly found a leeward place, set up a pile of firewood and raised a bonfire in situ, Yu Yu took out some food in the bamboo basket behind him, baked a piece of dough and handed it to Ma Xiaoer, Ma Xiaoer was very disdainful, but he still took it, took a bite on the dough cake, stared at the bonfire in a daze, neither of them spoke, Yu Yu was thinking about his own thoughts.
"Yu Yu, are you scared when you are out alone?" Ma Xiaoer had nothing to say.
Yu Yu thought about this kind of question for the first time, thought about it seriously and said: "I was indeed a little scared and at a loss before I left the town, but after leaving the town, this feeling is gone. ”
Ma Xiaoer smiled, held a dead grass in his mouth, lay down on the ground, and said slowly: "You are the only one left in your house, what is there to think." ”
Yu Yu was not angry, because what Ma Xiaoer said was the truth, and after thinking about it, he didn't know what his mood was, so he opened his mouth for a long time and said, "I don't know why, but I just want to." ”
Ma Xiaoer felt bored, thinking that Yu Yu was just an elm pimple, and talking to him was really boring.
After a while, Ma Xiaoer asked again, "Do you know why I left?"
mentioned that Yu Yu was interested, and he felt a little guilty in his heart, so he asked, "Why?"
Ma Xiaoer squinted at Yu Yu and said: "I broke the rules that day just a joke, I just want to tease you, but I didn't expect to annoy the master, the master said a word, I will enter the Wuzhi Mountain to sweep the tomb for 30 years, and I will not be allowed to step out of the Wuzhi Mountain for 30 years." ”
"Sweeping the tomb?" Yu Yu was puzzled, but then asked, "Is there really a tomb of a saint in Wuzhi Mountain?"
Ma Xiaoer smiled mysteriously, and then said: "Yes, but it's mediocre, even more humble than the tombs of the common people." ”
"But why haven't I seen it?"
"Hehe, if you really want to see it, it will really become the grave of the ordinary people, but you don't have to be depressed, because the tomb has no monument and no grave, and it is normal that you can't see it. ”
Yu Yu understood, and immediately looked at Ma Xiaoer with a surprised face, and said, "Brother Ma, are you ......?"
Seeing Yu Yu's surprised appearance, Ma Xiaoer sneered, spit out the withered grass in his mouth, and said: "You don't have to worry, although I, Ma Xiaoer, am a little stubborn and comfortable, but I haven't been a bastard enough to dare to disobey the master's will, and I have to thank you for it." ”
Yu Yu was puzzled and looked at Ma Xiaoer puzzled.
Ma Xiaoer didn't sell it, and said directly: "Yesterday evening, the master went to your house, and after he came back, he changed his mind, let me send you on the ship first, and then, wandering away for 100,000 miles, expelled from Yinghai Longzhou, and you are not allowed to step into a step within ten years." ”
When Yu Yu heard this, he comforted: "Brother Ma, don't blame the old gentleman, I think the old gentleman must have his reasons for doing this." ”
Ma Xiaoer lay on the ground and shook his head and said: "The thing was that I broke the rules first and did something wrong, I don't blame the master, and I don't dare, but at this time, I feel the same as you, and I am also homesick, because the pharmacy is my home." ”
Yu Yu also felt uncomfortable in his heart when he heard this, and a strange emotion rose in his heart.
The two of them were speechless, and after a while, Ma Xiaoer continued to speak: "When you get on the big boat, your ordinary silver money will not be used." ”
Yu Yu didn't speak because he didn't understand.
Ma Xiaoer understood Yu Yu's character, so he explained: "If you want to live well, you have to rely on this." ”
Saying that, Ma Xiaoer took out a treasure coin from his arms, and Yu Yu knew it and knew that it was Tianyun treasure money.
Ma Xiaoer pinched the treasure money with two fingers, held it in the air and looked at it carefully, Yu Yu was very curious, what is so beautiful about this treasure money, could it be that this Ma Xiaoer is more obsessed with wealth than himself.
Ma Xiaoer's personality is lively and cheerful, so the whole person always looks like a comfortable feeling, after looking at it for a while, Ma Xiaoer turned his head to look at Yu Yu and said, "Do you know where to find ambergris?"
At the mention of ambergris, Yu Yu became interested and asked, "Where is it?"
Ma Xiaoer smiled mysteriously: "Donghai." ”
"On the sea?"
"Well, but you don't have to worry, this thing is not rare at sea, and when you get there, you will naturally find it. ”
"But ......"
"Rest assured, the world is big and magical, there are always things you can't think of, and when you get on the boat, you will understand. ”
"Are you talking about the big boat the kind in the river a few days ago?"
Ma Xiaoer smiled and said, "That kind is too luxurious, I don't have the money to let you sit." ”
Yu Yu thinks about it, and this is also the truth.
"Squeak"
The doll ran back in the dark night, and a smoke slipped into the placket of Yu Yu's chest, ignoring the two of them and sleeping directly in the placket.
Ma Xiaoer immediately came to his senses when he saw the doll, looked at Yu Yu and then at the doll, sat up and said flatteringly: "Yu Yu, how about I exchange the doll with you with ten treasure coins?"
Yu Yu showed a look of embarrassment on his face and said, "Brother Ma, the doll is not mine, and after so many years, I have long regarded it as my relative." ”
Ma Xiaoer immediately hung his head in frustration: "Alas, pitiful." ”
Yu Yu saw that Ma Xiaoer was unhappy and hurriedly comforted: "Brother Ma, you don't have to be sad, I'll catch one for you when you meet other smart spirits in the future." ”
Ma Xiaoer ignored Yu Yu, lay back on the ground, looked at the starry sky and said: "Yu Yu, there are a lot of spirits in this world, but this doll of yours is a little special, out of the range of this Five Finger Mountain, try not to let it attract the attention of others, if someone inquires about it, you don't have to worry, just treat it as an ordinary mountain charm." ”
"Why?"
Ma Xiaoer didn't answer.
There was nothing to say all night, Yu Yu didn't have much rest, it was a wilderness, not sheltered from the wind and rain, and he left his hometown for the first time, Yu Yu's mood was inevitably a little low.
Ma Xiaoer was much more active, and the next morning the fire woke up Yu Yu, and the two of them didn't eat breakfast, and rushed directly, in Ma Xiaoer's words, we can meet a small town if we walk another seventy miles, and when we get there, we must treat ourselves well.
Along the way, Ma Xiaoer jumped up and down, catching birds and chasing rabbits.
Yu Yu followed behind and watched happily, and it was inevitable that he would also mess around, not to mention the doll, it could toss more than Ma Xiaoer, go up to the tree to dig bird eggs, go down to the river to catch fish and shrimp, and even run to the rabbit nest to fight with the rabbit, there is nothing it doesn't do.
The two of them swept away yesterday's gloomy mood, like birds out of the cage, cheerful, but in this way, the journey of the two was naturally much slower, and when they arrived in the town, it was already completely dark.
Ma Xiaoer was familiar with the road, led Yu Yu to the door of an inn, and slammed the door without saying a word.
The inn has been closed, at this time I heard someone slamming the door naturally unhappy, there was a sound of scolding and scolding from the door, but I still opened the door, and saw two young people, these two people were dressed as countrymen, and the guy was immediately unhappy and said casually: "The room is full......!
Before he finished speaking, the shopkeeper's eyes were straight, and his face was immediately full of smiles.
"Yo, two masters, hurry up inside, please, look at my brain, there are two upper rooms upstairs, please go inside." ”
Ma Xiao carried a silver ingot in his hand, and looked at the shopkeeper with a smile: "Didn't you say that there was no room?"
The shopkeeper immediately nodded, with a bright smile on his face, and said: "This master, the villain has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, don't tease the little me, the little one is busy all day, this brain is busy and stupid, isn't this just remembering." ”
Ma Xiaoer shook his head, and said as he walked inside: "Good wine and good food, hurry up and entertain." ”
"Come on, sir, wait a minute, I'll be here soon!"
Ma Xiaoer sneered, found a table and sat down, and Yu Yu sat down next to Ma Xiaoer.
Not long after, when the wine and food were served, the doll smelled the aroma and crawled out of Yu Yu's clothes, and when she saw the table full of food, her eyes lit up and pounced on the table.
The shopkeeper didn't leave, at any time.
But how do you think that these two people are ordinary countrymen, but I didn't expect to look away, and I was muttering in my heart, when I saw a little monster crawling out of the young man's clothes, a thought rose from the heart of the shopkeeper, and I couldn't help but be afraid for a while, worried that the words just now would offend the two people in front of me, and hurriedly said: "Two masters, the villain has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, and I hope that the two masters have a lot of offended just now, don't go to your heart." ”
Yu Yu didn't speak, but Ma Xiaoer waved his hand and said, "First go and prepare two upper rooms, boil hot water, and walk for a day, and my body is very tired." ”
"Okay, sir, wait a minute, the little one will do it immediately. After speaking, the shopkeeper turned around and left.
Just came to the backyard and was dragged by the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper's low voice asked: "How is it? What the hell is going on with these two hillbillies? How do you look at it, how are they the two big guys in the countryside, why do they have so much money on them, don't be the bandits in the mountain nest." ”
After listening to the shopkeeper's words, the shopkeeper hurriedly covered the shopkeeper's mouth, and said with a panicked face: "My master, you can be quiet, these two are amazing, they are immortals who cultivate immortals, let's not provoke them." ”
"What? just like them!" the shopkeeper seemed to not believe it, and turned his head to look secretly into the lobby.
When he saw the doll on the table, he took a sharp breath of cold air, and said fearfully: "Tut-tut, it's true, this really responds to that sentence, people can't be good-looking." ”
