Chapter 15 The Grace of Saving Lives and the Grace of Writing
"What an old lady. The hunchbacked old man was obviously dissatisfied with this title, and called out to Muyang but asked him, "Who are you, do I know you?"
Muyang was stunned.
How can this old lady turn her face faster than turning a book, she just gave a penny yesterday, and she pretends not to know him today.
If you really don't know, what do you call him for?
"My name is Muyang. Mu Yang still said politely, "I want to go to Shushan to learn art." ”
The old lady frowned, and she didn't let go after listening to him.
Mu Yang looked at her denying the account and felt more and more distressed about the penny she gave out, and couldn't help asking: "I also gave you a penny yesterday, don't you remember?"
At that time, the old lady also praised him for being a kind and sensible good boy, and he would be blessed.
Where is the good fortune?
The old lady stared at him for a while, shaking her head in confusion.
Really, fake, this is a problem with forgetfulness, I don't even forget what to do when I stop him.
The eldest lady didn't forget, and when she walked in front of Muyang, she had something to ask for: "If you go to Shu Mountain, help me bring a message to Zhao Shouye, the senior brother on Shu Mountain, and tell him that there is a woman under the mountain who has been waiting for him for thirty years, and if he has a conscience, he will get down quickly." ”
Thirty years?
Muyang watched this old lady from beginning to end, and estimated that she was also a young aunt in her thirties thirty years ago.
"Also, I advise you, don't learn from those old guys on Shu Mountain. "The eldest lady is very resentful," Dao Dao, there is only one Tao in their eyes, and they are chattering endlessly. ”
Muyang nodded again and again.
The only thing I don't understand is that this old lady is the demon that Ermu mentioned to him? It's the one who fell in love with the cultivators on Shu Mountain, why did it become like this in just thirty years, aren't all demons immortal?
Even if you can't, you can change your appearance.
Do you have to put on such a face, do you want that Zhao Shouye to feel guilty when he sees it?
Muyang couldn't figure it out, he really couldn't think of this old lady and the person that the senior brother on Shu Mountain liked together, and after thinking about it, he felt that there must be something unspeakable, and when he thought about it again, the voice he heard last night appeared again.
"Benefactor. ”
Muyang heard the sound and looked over, and a young woman dressed as a village woman appeared.
There are trees on the side of the road, and it is full of greenery.
She had a smile in her eyes, and when she came, her body was light, the two braids in front of her shook slightly, and as soon as she came out, she said in a bright voice: "Don't you remember me?"
"Remember, remember. Mu Yang greeted with a smile.
Last night's voice is still fresh in his memory, in the face of such a big living person, he began to make excuses for himself, Xu is in the dead of night, the night is high and the wind is dark, and he feels terrible.
"I'm here to repay the favor. Hu Die smiled, and suddenly a fragrance hit.
Mu Yang smiled and nodded, listening to such a big sun was very comfortable and comfortable, and even forgot for a moment that last night's sound was not done by ordinary people.
Except for the cultivators, there are only demons left.
"You remember, why didn't you come out to find my butterfly. The old lady spoke again, pointing at Muyang's nose and scolding.
Mu Yang stretched out his hand and explained: "I'm not worried about demons, by the way, why are you two still in the village so late yesterday...... Outside the village. When her hand touched the old lady's fingers, she felt cold and piercing, and when she looked down and saw that she had no shadow, she was so frightened that her voice trembled when she bumped into a ghost in broad daylight, "Are you guys human?"
The old lady put down her hand, hunched her back and raised her head, and said, "Why am I not human? I have to wait for my son to come back to see me." ”
A man walked away in a huff, shouting loudly for his son everywhere.
"Your son?" Muyang is strange, and the ghost can still give birth to a son? Is this old lady a human or a demon?
Seeing that his benefactor was in trouble, Hu Die stepped forward to relieve the siege and said: "Benefactor, this is a poor woman, her memory is not very good. ”
Mu Yang glanced at the eldest lady, looked back at the handsome woman in front of her and nodded, "I can see it, where is her son?"
Hu Die shook his head.
He's dead?
Muyang knew in his heart, he didn't care about this old lady, and was busy going to Shu Mountain, so he picked an important question and asked: "Why do you call me a benefactor?
"Son, son, where are you, have you come back?"
The old lady gradually walked away, Hu Die looked at her back and Mu Yang said: "The benefactor once saved me, at that time I was not yet cultivated into a human form, just an ordinary butterfly, but my ambition is not among the flowers, rather than becoming a messenger among the flowers, it is better to find your own good fate as soon as possible, I have been to many places where ordinary butterflies will not go, that day I was trapped by cobwebs, it was the benefactor you saved me." ”
No wonder, there is no asymmetry on her body, and her whole body is so upright.
I was wondering about this just now.
Now it can be understood, Muyang believes that she is a butterfly demon, but she doesn't remember saving her, so she asked tentatively: "It was I who saved you in my previous life?"
Hu Die still shook his head.
Muyang couldn't figure it out at all, when did she save her?
"It was a benefactor from a thousand years ago. Hu Die turned to face the shocked Muyang, and saw that the benefactor was stunned and lowered his head and smiled to arrange his braids.
"A thousand years?" Mu Yang wanted to confirm.
Hu Die nodded: "It's a thousand years." ”
Muyang needs some time to digest this matter, it turns out that the things in the past and this life are true, is there really a underworld, there is Meng Po soup, and there is also, after knowing this, you can't do things as you want, what if you do something bad and be punished as a pig in the next life?
It's okay not to tell him about this kind of thing, but when you tell him, there are too many things to consider, in his previous life, did he owe his father a lot of money, and his mother didn't have his hair.
How does this make him calm down?
Enemies from previous lives won't be like her.
"Miss Butterfly, I have a very important thing to ask you. As a benefactor, Muyang pretended to be calm and said, "You said that I saved you, so did I offend the spider who wanted to eat you, is it still alive?"
Hu Die seriously thought about it: "I and it are both flying insects and beasts in the world, if you want to cultivate into a demon, you have to find a way by yourself, what is its way, I don't know, but heaven is constant, it is insatiable, when I was trapped in the web, I saw that there were many flying insects in its web that were tightly entangled by spider silk, and they still came to eat me, leaving no chance to break free, so I will be damned." ”
This one......
Mu Yang's face was embarrassed, he couldn't help the butterfly demon girl who called him a benefactor, and he couldn't help her count the spider together.
It's common for spiders to build a web to keep a rabbit on their side, and it's normal to save up what they eat and eat it slowly.
It seems that he is more than lucky.
Mu Yang mourned silently for himself, and complained silently, he really loves to meddle in his affairs for a thousand years.
Now it seems that the demon is enmity, and he must also hold a grudge, and the spider will turn into a demon to take revenge on him, and so on, maybe, it will become a demon because it resents Muyang in the previous life that was so nosy, and he is really wronged in this life.
This kind of thing is useless to find the government.
"Benefactor?"
Hu Die recalled Muyang's thoughts and had something to say.
Mu Yang felt that he was being played by God, hung his head weakly, and looked up helplessly: "You say, what do you want me to do?"
"No, I don't. Hu Die said, "I have asked the people of Shangshu Mountain to bring a letter to Shouye for me, calling the benefactor to repay the kindness, repay the benefactor for saving my life, and the kindness of the mercy woman." ”
Speaking of the poor woman, Mu Yang saw that the old lady was still shouting everywhere to find her son, and quietly asked Hu Die: "What is she now?"
Hu Die sighed: "According to the words of the world, it is a ghost, and when the poor woman died, she had a long-standing resentment in her heart, and the resentment was too heavy to be reincarnated. ”
"Then what is she doing with a penny?" Mu Yang asked.
The eldest lady didn't have her ears back, and when she heard Muyang talking about money, she immediately ran over with her back and legs neatly on her back, and asked, "Where is the penny, where is the penny?" Look at Hu Die, and then look at Muyang, as if she didn't know the two of them, she bowed her head and said to herself, "With this money, I can buy a bun to eat, I don't have to starve to death, I can, I can see my son." ”
Mu Yang understood a little, and his expression was solemn: "When the poor woman was alive, she went to find her son alone?"
Hu Die nodded: "But at that time, the poor woman had already forgotten, she didn't remember what her son's name was, and she asked if there was any news of her son, but without a name, how could others know who her son was." ”
The poor woman came to turn over Muyang's palm, and floated around him if she couldn't turn it.
Mu Yang spread out his palms: "I don't have any silver." ”
"I don't believe it, you're all stingy. The poor woman went to turn over Muyang's baggage.
Muyang simply took out the burden from the top of his head and gave it to her.
Hu Die saw that the benefactor was looking at her, so he explained the benefactor's doubts: "That year was the dry season, the bark on the road was stripped and eaten, that day, the poor woman walked alone on the road to find her son, the only silver and food on her body were snatched away, penniless and did not eat for a long time, the poor woman had to borrow a penny every person, but no one was willing to help the poor woman, at night, the weather was cold, and the poor woman left with her son in her mouth. ”
Muyang glanced at the poor woman sympathetically, there was no silver in the bag, so he still had to remind her: "My penny has been given to you, you rummage through your pockets, maybe there is?"
The poor woman immediately went to rummage, and muttered, "Pocket pocket." ”
Muyang asked Hu Die: "What about the poor woman's son, what did he do, why did he never come back?" ”
Hu Die said: "I came back, but it was only a day late, and the day after the death of the poor woman, the son of the poor woman came back, and he didn't even deal with the aftermath and left." ”
"Unfilial son. Muyang scolded.
The poor woman took out a penny, her spirit returned to normal, she couldn't get used to someone saying bad things about her son, and immediately scolded Muyang: "Stinky boy, what do you say? My son is a person who wants to do great things, and it is already good to come back occasionally to see me, and if you want to blame, it is all to blame others for not being willing to give that copper coin." ”
Auntie, there was a famine at that time, who was willing to give money to go out?
To blame, or to blame that son.
Muyang really wanted to say, but he didn't want to quarrel with people at the foot of Shu Mountain, so he could only ask helplessly: "Poor woman, do you still want this copper coin?"
"Don't. The poor woman put the money heavily in the palms of Muyang's outstretched hands, and complained, "Now I can't even buy a bowl of noodles with clear soup and little water for a penny, and it's useless to keep it, so I'll give it back to you, a poor boy." ”
How did he become a poor boy again.
Mu Yang asked for the copper money back, and he couldn't breathe a sigh of relief, did he still call him a stupid boy later? He is not stupid, it is not a way for this lonely ghost to stay in the world.
Is this matter to be dealt with by the Taoist priest on Shu Mountain, and it can be regarded as a good deed if you recite a scripture.
Alas.
Then he has become a nosy man.
I really don't know what trouble it will cause to future generations and future generations.
