Chapter 003: The Three Immortals of the Earth

In the second half of the time, after receiving a warm reception in the Yellow Mansion, he was ready to go home after eating and drinking.

When parting, Boss Huang did not forget to remind him that he would visit him in person in two days, and then tell him about the entrustment.

Thinking that these two days were enough time for him to turn his face and deny his account, he casually said, "Then it's time to wait for the driver" and left the Yellow Mansion.

After leaving Huangfu, he once ordered a roast chicken to take out at the inn and made a pot of old wine, and then left the city and returned home.

The dirt roads in the countryside were uneven and a little difficult to walk, and after drinking alcohol just now, I staggered as I walked, and I almost fell into the ditch by the side of the road several times.

The three ghosts were also shaken a little dizzy in the cloth bag, and shouted through the cloth bag: "Senior brother, senior brother......"

Hearing the call, he stopped, leaned against a big tree, retched a few times, and waited until he came to his senses before opening the mouth of the cloth bag.

"Come out, there's shade here, no one. ”

Three ghosts, one by one, came out of the mouth of the cloth bag, turned into human appearance, lined up all the way to lie on the ground, and slowly shook their bodies.

"Hehe, I said that you three immortals, you haven't drunk any wine, why can't you get dizzy?"

These three ghosts are called the three immortals of the earth, and they also have their own names, the tall one is called eggplant, the fat one is called potato, and the short one is called green pepper.

Is this their real name? Obviously not, but why are they all named vegetables? This is to ask their master, Zhang Tianshi.

Speaking of the master-apprentice relationship, in fact, only one was once a true disciple of Heavenly Master Zhang, and the Three Immortals of the Earth were just ghosts living in Heavenly Master's house. After living for a long time, he also developed a friendship with the master and apprentice of the Heavenly Master, and he began to call Zhang Tianshi the same as the first day.

The haunting of the Huangfu and the subjugation of ghosts were planned by their masters and apprentices to cheat people out of money, but when Zhang Tianshi was young, it was true that he was a "Yin and Yang Official".

"Senior brother, we haven't been drinking, but in this cloth bag, you are swaggering left and right, shaking us uncomfortable, so we are so dizzy. ”

"You fat potato, I didn't even say anything about you, are you embarrassed to blame me? When I was catching ghosts in the Huangfu just now, you seem to have beaten me with a black hand, right?"

Potato was startled, hid behind Qingjiao, and hurriedly explained: "Isn't that really a trick for me, besides, senior brother, your strong body, can I break it in one or two strokes?"

Hearing Potato's justification, Green Pepper and Eggplant also remembered that at that time, they also moved their real character and beat a few times, secretly covering their mouths and smiling.

Once squinted his eyes and was intoxicated, he pursed his lips and nodded his head slightly, and slowly shook his hands, indicating that he could understand the statement that he acted really for the sake of truth and did not pursue it. Suddenly, he said, "Oops, someone's coming!"

The three immortals of the earth didn't know if they were shocked by this sudden sentence, or if they were really afraid that people would see them, so they turned into a puff of smoke and wanted to get into the cloth bag, but they rushed too quickly, and the ghost was stuck at the mouth of the cloth bag and couldn't squeeze in.

As soon as he unhurriedly loosened the hemp rope tied to the mouth of the cloth bag, and when the three immortals completely got into the cloth bag, they immediately tightened the hemp rope. He hung the rope with his index finger and began to hoist the sack.

"What are you all thinking, don't I know what I am a senior brother for? Those punches of yours must be to avenge my revenge for bullying you on weekdays, right?"

Only then did the three immortals realize that they had been fooled, and no one came at all, but the senior brother wanted to trick them into the trap under the cloth bag.

"Senior brother misunderstood, we don't dare to take revenge......"

"Senior brother, don't throw the cloth bag, we know it's wrong......"

"Senior brother, spare your life......"

In short, he is a senior brother, only he can bully people, no one can bully him. In this way, Ma Yichao threw the cloth bag in one hand, carried the roast chicken and old wine in the other, and hurried home with drunken steps.

Zhang Tianshi lives in a small village more than ten miles away from the city, not so much a small village, but a family here. Originally, there were a few families here, but since Zhang Tianshi moved here, I don't know why, and now he is the only one left.

As soon as I came back, I saw the master lying on the rocking chair and napping, the broken fan with the missing corner in his hand was still shaking slightly, and on the coffee table next to him, the tea had already been drunk, leaving only half a cup of tea leaves that had been brewed and dissolved.

"Master may not be asleep yet, but don't wake him up. Once he thought that the master didn't find out when he came back, he hurried back to the house, and when he woke up and asked, he said that he had come back a long time ago, so that he could hide the matter of drinking and eating in the Yellow Mansion.

But no matter how much he tiptoed and how careful he was, he still couldn't avoid his master's Fa after all.

"What time is it?"

Zhang Tianshi's question was so frightened that he immediately broke out in a cold sweat, like a bamboo pole standing and didn't dare to move, and it took a few seconds to dare to turn around, smiled at the master, and replied: "Back to the master, the time of Shen has just passed, and the time has passed." ”

"How's it going?"

"Oh, it's all done, and the gratuity has been paid. This is what Master ordered to buy. ”

He once put the roast chicken and wine he was carrying on the coffee table, and then took out the money bag from his sleeve and handed it to his master, "I'll make a new pot of tea for my master." ”

"Stop, what about them?"

The master didn't ask that, and once forgot that the three immortals were still in the cloth bag, "Here." ”

The three immortals came out of the cloth bag, and because they were dizzy from being shaken, they couldn't stand on their feet and lay on the ground, unable to speak.

"What's wrong with them?"

I was afraid that they would pierce me, so I rushed to speak, "Heh, they are too homesick, they miss you too much, and they are so excited for a while, hehehe." ”

Indeed, the three immortals have been in the Huang Mansion for nearly a month for this "plan", but they look like this, how excited they look.

"You went out early in the morning, and you should have been back early as planned, what's wrong?"

"This ...... No accidents, it's just ......"

"Don't talk, you talk!"

The three immortals watched the master interrogate them seriously, and saw the senior brother staring at them from the side, and they really didn't know whether to tell the truth or the truth.

In fact, there is no need to ask, Ma Yichao's face has not disappeared, and the smell of wine on his body is also very tangy.

Old man Zhang stretched out his index and middle fingers, bent them halfway, and knocked on the table, knock knock.

Once he understood what the master meant, he came to the front of the hall and knelt down facing the spiritual seat of the ancestral master.

It turned out that this Heavenly Master's punishment for a dynasty. The index finger and middle finger refer to the human legs, and bending means kneeling, and a few knocks are how many hours you can kneel.

"I don't know how to wipe my mouth clean when I eat secretly. Old man Zhang looked at the three immortals on the side and smiled gloatingly, and also punished them to kneel together, "And you two, a nest of snakes and rats, get out of my way." ”

Being punished is also a common thing for the four of them, and it is the most comfortable to be punished by kneeling.

Once he came here to learn the Tao for several years, Old Man Zhang rarely taught him Taoism, more of some simple talismans, which were more than enough to deceive people. And the Three Immortals of the Earth, it is a wandering soul that Zhang Tianshi went out once and subdued in a certain place, and he did not harm anyone much before and after his death, so he can be regarded as a good ghost.

This family lives by pretending to be a ghost and defrauding the gentry of their money. There is a lot of money cheated every time, but their lives are still so poor, because Old Man Zhang is a well-known iron rooster.

Kneeling still, plus eating and drinking, he soon became sleepy, bent slightly and fell asleep, and time passed quickly in his dreams.

In the dream, he was still eating Haisai at the dinner table, and I don't know who suddenly slapped him, and the thunderbolt on a sunny day woke him up.

"Who dares to attack Master Ben??"

"Shhh——, Master is here!"

It turned out that the three immortals heard the sound of the door opening in the house, thinking that the master had come out, and after calling for a long time, the senior brother did not see a reaction, so he made this decision.

As soon as he heard that the master was coming, he quickly returned to his body, no matter how painful his flushed face was.

"You four, go out at once and catch a few seven-star fish. ”

"Catch a fish, catch a fish?"

"It's a seven-star fish with seven black spots and scales on its belly. ”

"Oh, Master wants to eat fish, just let the apprentice go to the fish market and buy it, what kind of seven-star fish and eight-star fish, I will buy them all for you. ”

"I can't buy the fish I want at the market, so you should hurry up and go, and don't eat until you come back before dinner." ”

"Then where am I going to catch this seven-star fish?"

"Wild mud ponds. ”

"Ah, in the wild, do you have to go to a far place, can you come back before dinner?"

"I don't care about this, remember, you have to catch six seven-star fish, five of which cost one tael, and one half tael. Don't want one or two more, and grasp one or two less. ”

"Master, your mouth is really tricky, how heavy do you weigh when you eat fish and pick fish?"

Old man Zhang scratched the itch on his back, ignored it, walked straight into the room, and ignored the door as soon as he closed it.
