Chapter 2 The First Encounter with the Immortals
"Little mute, it's almost time to get up, we're going out to beg. ”
Su Shu heard Xiaohua's voice in a daze, which made her originally confused brain wake up instantly. She opened her eyes suddenly, and saw that she was still in the dirty and dilapidated temple, the light in her eyes quickly dimmed, and her heart was full of loss, and she murmured:
"There's really no going back......"
"Little mute, what are you talking about when you come together, why can't you go back?" Xiaohua asked curiously as she looked at Su Shu's lost look.
Su Shu shook her head and said:
"It's okay!" Then he looked at Xiaohua again and said, "Don't call me a little dumb in the future." ”
Xiaohua asked curiously, "If you don't call you a little dumb, what do you call you?"
"Su Shu!"
Xiaohua was stunned: "What Susu?"
"My name, Su Shu!"
Xiaohua's eyes lit up, and then she asked with some curiosity: "Your name is so good, who got it for you?"
"Myself!"
Although Xiaohua didn't believe it, she didn't ask, she always felt that the little mute seemed to be different......
Su Shu took a deep breath, then took the broken bowl in his hand and followed Xiaohua out of the broken temple.
She thought about her next plan while walking, but she didn't come up with a reason when she walked to the most prosperous street, and in desperation, Su Shu had to sit on the side of the street with Xiaohua and continue to think about countermeasures.
Xiaohua saw that she was distracted, so she had to put her broken bowl in front of her, and then took out the broken bowl in Su Shu's hand and put it in front of her, waiting for others' almsgiving.
After a long time, just when Su Shu's mind was about to turn into a mess, a piece of silver fell into her bowl with a "bang", interrupting her thoughts.
Su Shu was stunned for a moment, and then her heart was very complicated and entangled. She looked at the silver in the broken bowl with a complicated expression, and then looked up at the person who gave her the silver.
It is a little girl about ten years old, dressed in a blue gauze skirt, with white and clear skin, a white and red little face with two small dimples when she smiles, and a pair of big and bright eyes, which looks very pleasing. He was followed by an eleven or twelve-year-old boy, who looked like a little adult, and his appearance was also very exquisite.
Su Shu looked at the two of them, and felt that her ears were a little hot for a while, and she opened her mouth and didn't know what to say, only felt that her throat was astringent. But the little flower on the side reacted quickly and said loudly:
"Thank you for your generosity, the two young ladies and young masters, good people will be rewarded!"
Seeing Xiaohua's groveling appearance, Su Shu couldn't help but pull the corners of her mouth self-deprecatingly, how could she be inferior to a child. No matter how much he doesn't admit it, he is now a beggar, no matter whether these two people are out of pity or charity, but for the current self, it is help, and a word of thanks should still be said.
Taking a deep breath, Su Shu stood up from the ground, looked up at the little girl in blue, and said very seriously:
"Thank you!"
Bai Yunxi looked at the eyes that looked directly at her, and was a little surprised in her heart, but she felt that she was not like other little beggars, her eyes were very clear and bright. Though they do begging, they do not beg. It was a very special person, so he tilted his head and said:
"The left and right are just pieces of broken silver, useless to me, no need to thank you!"
Su Shu was silent, lowered her eyes to hide the complexity in her eyes, and said:
"It's insignificant to you, but it's a relief to me. ”
Looking at the skinny little girl in front of her, Bai Yunxi didn't know why her heart moved, so she said:
"Tomorrow, there is an immortal gate outside the Cloud City City Lord's Mansion to recruit disciples, you can give it a try. Without waiting for Su Shu's reaction, he turned around and left.
However, the young man behind Bai Yunxi frowned when he heard this, and looked at the thin girl in front of him a few more times, except for being thin and small, there was nothing special about it, but he really didn't understand why his sister would help him three times and twice.
"Sister, what's so special about that little girl?"
"What's so special about it is that she doesn't behave like a little beggar. ”
.......
Su Shu looked thoughtfully at the figures of the two of them gradually moving away, and her heart moved, does the immortal gate mean cultivating immortals?
Originally, she didn't believe in these things, but when she thought that she could travel from the 21st century and change her body, she couldn't help but believe it.
If you can give it a try, then why don't you give it a try? What if? If there really is a so-called immortal in this world, then you have one more chance, right? Even if it is fake, it will not be worse than now, right?
After making up her mind, Su Shu looked at Xiao Huadao, who was still stunned:
"Xiaohua, did you hear what the little girl said just now? I plan to try it tomorrow, do you want to go with me?"
Xiaohua reacted after listening to Su Shu's words, she first blinked her big eyes a few times, and then entangled her little face with a look of wanting to speak and stopping.
Su Shu looked at Xiaohua a little strangely, this was a good opportunity for them to climb to the sky for little beggars living at the bottom of society, why did they get so entangled in Xiaohua.
"Xiaohua, what's wrong with you? Could it be that the fairy gate is fake?"
Xiaohua was frightened when she heard this, so she quickly covered Su Shu's small mouth at once, and looked around to make sure that no one heard before letting go of her hand: "You can't talk nonsense, how can that Xianmen be fake." ”
Su Shu endured the action of raising her hand to wipe her mouth, and finally when she glanced at Xiaohua's black little hand, she couldn't bear to pout vigorously with her fairly clean wrist. She is really a bit of a cleanliness habit, Su Shu feels that if she continues like this, her cleanliness will be gone.
She pouted and looked at Xiaohua with a little disgusted little eyes:
"Since it's not fake, why are you so entangled?"
Xiaohua was silent at first, and then said with a bit of inferiority and loss:
"But we are beggars, the fairy gate should not accept beggars, right? We are so dirty that the immortals won't even look at us, and we may not enter the fairy gate if we go!"
Su Shu understood Xiaohua's thoughts, it turned out to be inferiority, and she could understand it after thinking about it. The people of the world are more afraid of cultivating immortals than they yearn for, and the difference between beggars and immortals can be summed up as the difference between clouds and mud? Immortals are an unattainable existence for Xiaohua, and they are even more insulable.
Understanding Xiaohua's thoughts, Su Shu looked up at Xiaohua seriously and said:
"Xiaohua, I'm not sure if I can be chosen, but this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us, I have to try it anyway, it doesn't matter if I can't enter the fairy gate, let's go this way, not for anything else, just to not regret it." Besides, what about beggars, we can't give up on ourselves just because we're beggars, on the contrary, we should seize every opportunity to make ourselves better. ”
Xiaohua listened to Su Shu's words, looking at her black and white eyes flashing with a firm and unyielding look, as if something had broken through the ground in her heart, and the inferiority complex in her heart was gone for some reason. Xiaohua looked at the little bean sprouts that were a head shorter than herself, and always felt that something was different.
Seeing that Xiaohua was no longer drilling, she breathed a sigh of relief, she was going to give it a try tomorrow anyway, but she didn't want to leave Xiaohua alone, this was the first person she had released kindness to herself after coming to this other world.
After deciding to go to Xianmen early tomorrow morning to participate in the Xianmen apprenticeship, Su Shu took Xiaohua to have a full meal first, and then after inquiring about some basic information about the Xianmen apprenticeship, she went to buy two sets of coarse linen clothes, and then hid the rest of the money.
The two took a happy bath by the river, and Su Shu felt that she was alive again, and even her breathing was much smoother.
Looking at the clean little flowers, Su Shu understood why she made herself dirty every day, a melon seed face with a pair of big eyes, a full mouth under the delicate nose, eleven or twelve years old has begun to take on a girlish demeanor, and can't help nodding secretly: "It's a smart and beautiful little beauty!"
Seeing that Su Shu had been looking at herself, Xiaohua smiled slightly: "Only in this way will you not be bullied." ”
Su Shu didn't speak, just nodded in understanding.
