Volume 1 The First Entry Chapter 12 The Blind Old Way
The day of the Confucian and Taoist selection examination is getting closer and closer, and the little boy knows that the coming of that day is the difference between their brother and sister, so he has been with his sister in recent days, cherishing the time when the brother and sister get together for a while.
The brother and sister entered Tianluo City, and the medicinal materials they bought last time had been used up, and Bian Yufei's injuries had improved, but the impact emitted from the little boy's body that day once again injured his heart and lungs, so he needed new medicinal materials to heal his injuries. It's just that Bian Yufei didn't tell the brother and sister about this incident, they just thought that they had run out of medicinal materials and needed to go into the city to buy new medicinal materials.
The brother and sister walked to the door of a restaurant, where a crowd gathered around them, and they didn't know what was going on. The little boy also likes to join in the fun, pulling his sister to squeeze into the crowd when he sees the cracks. The little boy who squeezed into the crowd was very disappointed and didn't hear anything but what seemed to be an argument on the second floor of the restaurant.
Suddenly, a figure was thrown from the second floor of the restaurant. I saw that the man was gray-faced, without a bundle of hair, his hair was as messy as a bird's nest, half black and half white, and he was wearing a dark blue robe, but this robe was densely torn from the cuffs to the ankles, and none of them were good. His upper and lower eyelids seemed to grow together, and the gap between his eyes was connected by a piece of rotten flesh, which was very disgusting.
The blind Taoist priest was thrown down from the second floor, stood up and patted the soil on his buttocks, like no one else, and muttered a few words: "Isn't it just to drink a few bowls of wine from you, as for it." After saying that, he looked around, and then squeezed away the crowd around him and ran over with small steps, only to see him run to the corner of the wall, blow the dirt on the ground, and sit down with his legs crossed.
While sitting, he said: "My own land is damp, Zhongzheng is storing, I don't worry about Mu Sheng, I am not afraid of water madness, what a good place! No one wants this kind of good place, it's really a waste, hum, I'm not welcome! Fortune telling, fortune telling, no money, no money, you can use wine to pay for money!" The blind Taoist priest shouted loudly.
The shout of the blind Taoist priest attracted a burst of eyes from the people around him, you said that you have to wear a little bit of fairy wind bones to be decent for fortune telling, how can you wear tattered like this, just find someone who will tell fortunes to others on your back, and shout that you can pay for money with wine, isn't this purely a drunkard!
The two brothers and sisters looked at the Taoist priest sitting in the corner and sighed, aren't they the same with the two brothers and sisters, if it weren't for the noble man Bian Yufei, the two of them might be squatting next to the blind Taoist priest now to ask for food. The little boy touched the copper plate left over from yesterday's food on his body, pulled his sister over and threw the copper plate to the blind old man, "Grandpa, don't drink, take this copper plate to buy a steamed bun to eat." With that, the two of them left.
Lao Dao suddenly said, "Two little dolls for me to stop! Dao Ye, I am not a beggar, can I still accept the alms of your two little dolls?"
"That'...... What do you want?" said the little boy after a moment's hesitation.
"Little doll, Master Dao, I don't see too clearly with my eyes, let's tell your fortune by touching your bones. The blind Taoist priest said.
The little boy couldn't cry or laugh, and someone forced himself to tell his fortune, "This ...... Thank you for your kindness, but I don't think so, I don't believe it. ”
"No! I never owe anyone, I can't sleep if I take a penny from you. The blind Taoist priest said with a righteous face.
The corners of the little girl's mouth raised slightly, "Then why did you drink other people's wine for nothing just now?"
"Hey, why is your little girl's mouth so tricky, Dao Ye and I drank their wine for nothing? Dao Ye was afraid that their wine was poisonous, and Dao Ye tried the wine with his own body, how can this kind of righteousness be understood by children like you!" said the blind Taoist priest with a proud face.
"Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense. The blind Taoist priest didn't talk to the little girl anymore, and grabbed the little boy's arm and began to touch it. He touched it and muttered, "Ahhh
The little boy and the little girl glanced at each other, shook their heads and sighed in unison, "Well, let's borrow your auspicious words, grandpa, we still have something to do, so let's go first." With that, the little boy took the little girl and turned around and left.
"Hey, you don't have a name yet. The blind Taoist priest suddenly asked.
The little boy was stunned for a moment, then nodded "Hmm!"
The blind Taoist priest crossed his legs and lowered his head and said, "Since you don't believe in the fate that the Taoist Master told you, then the Taoist Master will give you a name!"
The little boy thought for a moment and said, "Okay, you can say it." ”
The blind Taoist priest was silent for a moment, "I studied under the Daomen, so I will give you the surname Li of your ancestor, as for the name, how about I give you the word "Dust?"
Li Yichen...... Li Yichen ......" the little boy repeated the name, "Okay, this name is very good, from now on, I will be called Li Yichen." ”
The little boy suddenly walked up to the blind Taoist priest and knelt on the ground with a "poof", "The grace of giving a name, the responsibility of parents, I have no father or mother, you gave me my name for my parents, today, I kneel to you." After speaking, he kowtowed three times to the blind old man.
The blind old Taoist did not stop him, so he bowed down three times, and when the little boy stood up, the old Taoist priest suddenly said: "Daoye, I can tell you in advance, Daoist I am blind, and I haven't seen anything, which means that I haven't been bowed down by you!"
The little girl was about to get angry at the old Taoist priest, and his brother knelt down on him so seriously, he still didn't appreciate it, if he was a noble person, it would be fine, but he was a blind Taoist priest, and he was knocked down from the restaurant for drinking other people's wine for nothing, why did such people do this! The sister was about to open her mouth to scold but was stopped by the little boy. The little boy didn't have a trace of annoyance, but nodded at the old Taoist priest with respect on his face, pulled his sister and left.
The blind Taoist priest's ears moved in the direction where the brother and sister had left, and the corners of his mouth raised into a smile, and he said to himself, "Li Yichen...... Li Yichen...... Tsk tsk, Dao Ye, there is more and more ink in my stomach, and in a few days, I'm afraid that those well-dressed beasts in Confucianism will be honored by me! Hahaha! Li Yichen, what a good name! I just don't know if you kid can abandon this red dust?"
Behind the brother and sister, the out-of-tune voice sounded again.
"Fortune telling, fortune telling, no money, no money, you can use wine to pay for money!"
