Chapter 40: Prayer
The first update, ask for collections, ask for recommendation votes, ask for rewards, three more today!
The drunken Taoist put down Li Chenhui and his wife, and immediately flew away.
Li Chenhui opened his mouth to speak, but saw that the drunken Taoist had turned into a small dot and disappeared into the distant sky.
I can only look at the sky and sigh.
"That's it, that's it, you and I can escape with our lives, it's already a great blessing, don't ask for anything more, it's just that this is going to Linbo Mansion, the mountains are high and the road is far away, there will be many twists and turns, but you and I are old and frail, there is no one to serve, are you entangled in your body, how can this be good?"
The two of them are now dressed in gorgeous clothes, brocade and satin, and they seem to be rich and noble people, but in fact, they are vain, and the gold and jade are ruined.
The old lady said, "As the saying goes, there is no way out of the mountains and rivers, and there is another village, sir, don't worry, let's move forward, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, maybe there will be some way." ”
Li Chenhui said, "Madam is right, there are always more ways than difficulties, but we are now dressed in gorgeous clothes, very dazzling, once we are seen by others, and Feicheng gets the news, it is impossible for us to enter Linbo Mansion to complain, and we also need to change this gorgeous costume and beautiful clothes, change into the clothes of ordinary people, and hide our identity and name, so that it is possible to enter Linbo Mansion safely to complain." ”
"Feicheng Governor Wei Zhong and Ciyun Temple of a gang of thieves, colluded, all evil, scourge the township, this time I filed a complaint to the prefect case, when the time comes, the officials are shaken, the officers and soldiers descend from the sky, they will be able to sweep the pear hole, exterminate the evil thieves, and return Feicheng to a bright future. ”
The old woman said, "In ancient times, officials and officials protected each other, officials and officials hid each other, there was such a big thing in Feicheng under the jurisdiction of Linbo Mansion, and the Linbo prefect must not be ignorant, and if the matter is reported, if it is known to the world, the impact on his official reputation is not good, but I am afraid that he may not be willing to help us with all his might, the master also needs to be cautious, and he must not let himself fall into a desperate situation again." ”
The two of them are considered to have died once, and they survived this time when they were rescued by the drunken Taoist, so they cherish their lives more than before.
Li Chenhui nodded and said, "Madame is right, I will pay attention, when the time comes, I will go to Linbo Mansion alone to complain, Madame will be invisible, if there is something discordant, Madame will immediately go to the capital to sue the royal court, I believe that there is still a place in the world that can be reasonable." ”
"Let's leave quickly, see if there are any towns ahead, and when we get to the town, we will take some clothes on us as some money, one will change some ordinary clothes to hide our identity, and the other will be able to buy some food to satisfy our stomachs. ”
Although it is an official road, but there are no pedestrians, there are high mountains on both sides, and the trees are verdant, not like a good place, the two support each other, all the way forward, but did not encounter any danger.
It's just that the two of them are old and frail, and they are unable to move, although they have been gritting their teeth and persevering, and they have not stopped all the way, but when it is about to dark, they are tired and panting, sweating, but they have not gone far.
As for the fireworks in the town, they have never been seen.
The sun hangs in the west, the sunset will rise, the cool breeze quietly comes, the whole world becomes a little shady, gray down, tired birds return to the forest, ten thousand beasts hide in the cave.
The night is about to begin.
"Now that the chaos in Chen Guo has appeared, there are many demons, if you walk at night, you will inevitably encounter mountain ghosts and tree monsters, let's find a place, stay overnight, rest, and stay until dawn, when the sun shines on the earth, how about you are in a hurry?" Li Chenhui looked at his wife, very distressed.
"Zitong, you follow me, but you have suffered a lot, you are old, and you have to leave your hometown with me, what will be the blessings and disasters in the future, it is still unknown, and I feel very bad in my heart. ”
The old woman took a breath, stretched out her hand to wipe the fine sweat from her forehead, and said angrily, "What did the old man say, we are husband and wife, we share weal and woe, blessings and misfortunes, follow you for a lifetime, enjoy all the glory and wealth, and suffer a little at this time, what is it? Besides, didn't the Taoist who saved us say that we will do good deeds and accumulate virtue in our lives, and we will be blessed by ghosts and gods, there will be nothing to do, but it is getting dark, and we really need to find a place to settle down quickly." ”
The mountains are vast and the providence is dim, Li Chenhui and his wife dare not slack off, while walking, they open their eyes and look around, looking for a place to stay.
However, there are mountains and mountains on both sides, until the sun sinks and the moon rises, and the sky is full of stars, they still haven't found a place to stay, at this time the two are cold, hungry, and exhausted, and they really can't walk, not only sad from it.
Glancing at each other, "Could it be that my husband and wife are really going to die in a foreign land, buried in the depths of the green mountains, no matter what, no matter what, a hard work and an empty one, return to the soil after death, why bury the bones in the mulberry ground, where is the green mountains in life, it is not bad to be able to be buried in the green mountains, and always follow the breeze and bright moon." ”
The old woman said, "The old man doesn't have to be discouraged, things haven't reached the time of despair, the starry sky is full of stars, and the mountains are like daylight, this is the providence of heaven, if the sky is dark and the moon is sinking, and you can't see your five fingers, it is despair." ”
Li Chenhui said, "Madam is right, you should not be discouraged at this time, you should grit your teeth and not relax, and move forward slowly." ”
The two gritted their teeth, relied on their will, and walked slowly for half an hour, when suddenly there were bright lights in front of them, shining from afar, and they were even brighter and abnormal at night.
Li Chenhui and his wife were overjoyed, "The hard work pays off, and there is vitality, there is a light on the road ahead, there must be people, let's get there, find something to satisfy our stomachs, borrow the night from the master's house, have a good rest, and after dawn, we are doing the place to go." ”
The lights are like hope, seeing the lights, the bodies of the two people who were originally exhausted seem to have infinite power, supporting each other, and the pace is much faster, looking at the lights and going straight to the sky.
About half an hour later, this is the place near the bright lights, a magnificent palace is located in front, the lights are bright, the inside is clearly illuminated, it is really a rich and noble family, the red lantern moves in the wind, the lights are swaying, look at it by the light, but see the eaves teeth are pecked high, the red wall is green tile, and there are green trees in the wall, and the branches and leaves are spreading.
"A good place, a good place, I can't imagine that we have such a creation, and there is such a good place in a place that is inaccessible. Standing in the distance, Li Yuanwai stroked his palms and smiled, and his eyebrows were happy.
Only the old woman frowned, and at the moment she only wondered why there was such a temple in the deep mountains and wilderness.
The two of them were just about to continue walking, intending to take a few quick steps and go to the temple to spend the night.
Suddenly, a gust of wind arose under their feet, and as soon as the two of them stopped walking, they saw a large poplar tree with a thick embrace, which fell to the ground with a thud, blocking their way.
After the tree fell to the ground, the sudden wind disappeared.
"Strange things, strange things, how suddenly a gust of wind happened to blow the big tree in front of us to the ground, blocking the way forward. Li Chenhui had a doubt in her heart, looked at the temple in the distance, and couldn't help beating the drum in her heart.
So he twisted the soil into incense and prayed to the night sky, "Disciple Li Chenhui Zhixin salutes, the sky is above, if the temple on the way forward is dangerous, please let me drop a branch that can be planted straight on the ground, if there is no danger, let me drop the branch and point straight in the direction of the temple." ”
He picked up a branch, put it between his hands, bowed three times to the night sky, and threw the branch in his hand to the ground.
