Say goodbye to Yandu and hike Yuezhou for thousands of miles
Mo Yue stayed in Bofu for half a month, and the injuries in the north and south were almost healed, Mrs. Su Jin was very reluctant to leave, and gave her a jade pendant before leaving, telling her to have time to take a look, and the old man Boqian was also reluctant to leave the north and south, and he had to play another game with the north and south.
This game of the whole Bofu up and down the house slaves came to watch, among them there are many old people who have a deep study of chess, of course, the old man Boqian finally lived up to expectations and lost, and everyone who watched sighed, where is this level, it is simply the confrontation between amateur chess players and national players, and the piece of armor that was killed was not left.
"Your chess skills are not bad, but the defense is more than enough, the killing is insufficient, and you are a little less sharp, if you make up for it, the little monk may not be able to win." Nanbei quietly gave Boqian a step down, so as not to let this usually stylish old man fall off the chessboard.
How could Boqian not know that the north and the south were polite, and if he lost, he would lose, so he waved his hand and let people collect the chessboard and said, "The little master has superb chess skills, and the old man is ashamed of himself, if he has the opportunity, he will definitely go to the temple to visit, and then play a few games with the little master." ”
Xiao Shu left with Xiao Yuhua early in the morning, he was not interested in watching the two of them play chess, he planned to go to the Cloud Temple of Guanlan Mountain in Yuezhou, first, he really wanted to hear how the Buddhist monks explained the injustice of heaven, and secondly, what is the origin of this string of Buddhist beads? What is the lotus flower in that realm? What is the pillar of light? Who is the person in the pillar of light? These questions are estimated to be only the people of Buddhism who can solve one or two.
"Are we going to find the immortals?" Xiao Xiaohua looked at Xiao Shu with a look of hope, and was inexplicably a little nervous in her heart, she didn't know what the fairy looked like, whether it was three heads and six arms, a hideous face, or a kind eyebrow and kind eyes, and the crane as a companion, would she also be disgusted that she was a flower child......
Xiao Shu couldn't help but smile when he saw Xiao Zhaohua's nervous and excited appearance: "I don't know where the fairy is." ”
"Didn't you say that you know the immortals? I still treat you as a brother, and you actually lied to me when Xiao asked for food! That's right, if you really know the immortals, how can you still be reduced to asking for food, as long as you learn what to turn stone into gold...... "The number of flowers is very powerful, and the atmosphere is not breathing, and it has been said for half an hour, which has attracted the eyes of people on the street, and they thought that this young man was abducting and selling children.
"Okay hero, are you tired, fairy, you should be a radish and cabbage on the street, can you see it if you want to?" Xiao Shu couldn't help but interrupt, if you want Xiao Yuhua to continue talking like this, I'm afraid that the people in the government will be attracted.
"No!" she said, rolling her eyes.
"I didn't say I wouldn't take you there, but it's too early. Xiao Shu spread his hands and said helplessly.
"When, a month or two months?"
"How old are you?"
Xiao Yuhua didn't answer immediately, but instead wrenched her fingers, and after thinking for a long time, she said, "Sixteen years old, what are you doing?"
"In another four years, when you are crowned, I will take you to see the immortals. Xiao Shu calculated the time and said.
"What crown?" Xiao Yuhua asked a little incomprehensibly, his parents died early, where did he understand this, he had learned all these things about stealing over the years, and he didn't understand any etiquette.
"That is, when you are twenty years old, crowning means that when you are old, you can marry a woman you like. Xiao Shu was silent for a moment, broke off a small branch from the willow tree on the side of the street, peeled off the bark on it, and straightened the messy hair of Xiao Yuhua one by one, tied a ponytail with the bark, and then divided it into two strands and circled it three or four times and fixed it with a branch.
"It hurts......" Xiao Xiaohua said in pain, I don't know if it has been covered by hair or because of nature, a little face is a little pale, pursed his mouth, frowning, if he changes into a Taoist robe, he really looks like a little Taoist child.
"I can't bear to tie your hair in a bun? Crowning is a lot more annoying than this, but unfortunately I haven't crowned either, it's all from my friend. Xiao Shu took a closer look, and was still quite satisfied with his hair tie technique, his hair should be tied tightly, and it looked like it was loose and baggy.
"I don't want to be crowned, it's so troublesome. Xiao Yuhua pouted and said, but she didn't take off the little hairpin, walked to the river and took a picture of her current appearance, and tied her hair up for the first time, it didn't seem so ugly, but without this hair in front of her, the sun was a little dazzling.
"Okay hero, it's very good-looking, it's going to be dark if you take it any longer. ”
"Where are you going?"
"If we can't see the immortals, let's go to Yuezhou to meet the Buddha and Bodhisattva. ”
Hearing this, Xiao Xianghua suddenly shook her head like a rattle, and looked like she had seen a ghost, "Don't you know that Yuezhou and Tongzhou are both western borders? Even I know that the Tuxia countries invaded Yueguo this year, and Yueguo forcibly levied grain taxes for military salaries, which is even worse than that in my hometown, and everyone who can run has run away, and the rest are about to be eaten by people, so I really can't go." ”
Xiao Shu couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, the appearance of the north and the south talking about the customs of Yuezhou before was still vivid, how could he become a cannibal in the mouth of Xiao Yuhua?
"Why don't you go, I want to see what kind of compassion method those Buddhism are, if you are afraid, hide behind me when the time comes, although my Xiao Shu's swordsmanship is rotten, but in the end it is still the Heavenly Xuan Realm, and even you can't protect it Isn't it a joke." ”
Another person may have retreated, but he Xiao Shu is really not afraid of you eating people.
"Who is afraid, I'm just worried about you, just go, when something happens, don't blame me for not warning you in advance. Xiao Yuhua said this, but there was still a little emptiness in his heart, that place was much worse than his hometown, and people couldn't live anymore, who cared about what Wang Fa.
Although Xiao Zhaohua has no concept of war, he knows that hunger will drive people crazy, and crazy people are no different from wolves, as long as they can survive, they can do anything, and finally came to Youzhou Yandu, although he is stubborn, but he still doesn't want to go to that ghost place from the bottom of his heart.
These days, living in Boyan's house has saved a lot of money, and Mrs. Su Jin also made two sets of clothes for Xiao Shu and Xiao Yuhua, Xiao Yuhua was reluctant to wear them, so she wrapped a piece of cloth and carried it on her back, saying that she was not used to wearing them, but in fact, she was still afraid that she would stain such good clothes, and she was still wearing the original dirty clothes.
Xiao Shu didn't care at all, he changed his clothes and was refreshed, although he was not as pretty as a woman like a white envoy back then, he was also called a gentleman just by looking at his appearance, warm as jade, and the only thing that made people feel uncomfortable was the eyes that did not show a trace of emotion all year round.
Xiao Shu bought a lot of dry food, he also wanted to buy a horse, only to find that he thought too much, even the worst horse cost thirty taels of silver, if these money are exchanged for food, can feed the family for several years, Fang Jin gave Xiao Shu a good horse casually, Xiao Shu also thought that this horse was just an ordinary thing, at this moment, the horse froze to death on the road, and I don't know how much silver was lost.
Xiao Yuhua followed behind Xiao Shu without saying a word, his expression was a little hesitant, although he knew that Xiao Shu was very powerful, but he had no idea how powerful it was, could he fight ten or a hundred? But there are far more than a hundred people in that kind of place, what is the difference between sending them to death?
"I'm also for some private matters, if you really don't want to go, forget it, you take this silver and this fan, and go to the Xuanji Gate in Zhongshan Mountain, Hengling, Qingzhou to find Linglongzi, just say that I asked you to go, I think she has more ways than me. Xiao Shu held the two strings of sugar gourds he had just bought, handed one to Xiao Zhaohua, and took out the only ten taels of silver left from his arms, along with the Xuanyu folding fan on his waist, and handed it to Xiao Zhaohua.
Xiao Yuhua didn't answer, took a bite of a sugar gourd and put it in his mouth, smiled like a child, picked up the fan and jumped up and patted Xiao Shu's head, and said indistinctly, "You still have to take me to see the fairy, I can't let you run away!"
How long has it been since I laughed like this, Xiao Zhaohua can't remember clearly, his parents have been gone since he was sensible, it was originally a poor and remote country, and food and clothing for every family have become a problem, no one wants to adopt him, go here today to steal a steamed bun, and go there tomorrow to ask for some food, always driven around like a mouse, but the disaster is getting more and more serious, everyone can't live anymore, even if he has no feelings for his hometown, but leaving his hometown is still an unimaginable suffering for him.
It wasn't until he met Xiao Shu that Xiao Yuhua remembered that he was not a mouse, he was still a person who could talk, cry and laugh, he was very afraid of the kind of life that a person was driven to and fro, and ate the last meal without the next meal, this kind of person can be relied on, and the feeling of standing behind you is something he has never experienced, and he is unwilling to lose.
Xiao Shu snatched the fan from his hand, slapped him on the head with his backhand, and pretended to be angry and said, "If you want to see the immortals, it's okay, but before that, you have to listen to me in everything, otherwise you don't have to talk about it." ”
"You're sitting on the ground!" Xiao Yuhua shouted unconvinced.
"If you love to listen or not, if you don't listen, I will send you to the door of the mystery to save your annoyance. Xiao Shu said with a smile.
“...... You said. Xiao Zhaohua seemed to be deflated, and responded weakly.
"First of all, change your clothes for me, and don't talk back. ”
“......”
"Then, you carry these dry foods, don't stare at me, I'm here to exercise your body, and young people will have to take on more responsibilities. Xiao Shu took off the dry food he was carrying and stuffed it into Xiao Yuhua's hand as a matter of course.
"I don't want it!" Feeling the heavy weight in his hand, Xiao Xiaohua finally couldn't help but blow up, and just wanted to smash the dry food on Xiao Shu's face, but found that Xiao Shu had already run far away with a flying stride, and he didn't give a chance at all.
"Hey, stop me, hey!" shouted at Xiao Shu's back.
"If you don't want to go hungry, don't throw it away. ”
A fluttering voice came from a distance, Xiao Xianghua gritted his teeth and picked up the dry food and chased after him, he didn't really carry it, he was always chased by people on weekdays and had already trained his foot strength, and the two of them left Youzhou Yandu one after the other.
