Chapter 2: Trouble Again
After a while, watching the demons outside gradually retreat, Prince Zifeng accepted the spell. Then, he regained his face and said to the stubborn stone: "I want to inform you about the matter of my fairy sister and the seventh princess." β
The stubborn stone also changed to a mocking attitude and said: "Why don't you go and ask the Shenying waiter? He left as soon as his belly made your seventh sister bigger, and he was the one who started it; Seeing that Prince Peony's face was getting more and more ugly, the stubborn stone laughed and said, "You don't have to be unhappy. I think what a wise person the Seven Princesses of Ziyin are, who can see through the successes and disadvantages of all the relationships in the world, and sacrifice small interests for the sake of herself, but she plays exquisitely in all aspects of the rules, and is supported by the hearts of the people, and can inadvertently calculate people in the beginning and turn to that subtlety, so why should you worry about what will happen to her?"
"Hmph!" Prince Peony retorted, "According to you, that deviant and arrogant person who deceives the world and steals his name is actually good? No matter in the fairy world, why don't you take goodness as the root and love as your thoughts? With beauty as the goal? After all, it is good to have merit that benefits the human fairy world and all things in heaven and earth!" There is a sentence in his heart that is muffled and unspoken, that is, don't you also haunt yourself that you can't be a stone to mend the sky?
"Merle!" the stubborn stone repeated, and then said: "Your flower fairy world naturally takes beauty as pleasure, and we are stone and soil and the like... He paused, and the topic seemed to touch a sore point in his heart. So he said impatiently: "It seems that we are not in the same way." As for the matter of the seventh princess of your family, I have nothing to say. Please. β
At that time, the prince of Peony Zifeng was also very unhappy, even if he didn't give an eviction order, he didn't want to delay his work with him anymore. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Alas! What a difference in the way is not a conspiracy for each other! Words are not speculative for more than half a sentence. It was no good to stay any longer, so he whispered, "Those who know me say that I am worried, and those who do not know me say that I want something!" and he said goodbye.
He took his son Peony Yong along the path he came, bypassing Qinggeng Peak and preparing to go back to find another way. He silently planned in his heart: even if they came to visit the stubborn stone today, they had been out for two days. I went to the police fairy first, and then went to the Heavenly Palace to visit the Southern Dipper Six Star Monarch and the Big Dipper Seven Yuan Monarch of the main immortal clan, but there was no news... Now it seems that there is only one way to find the traces of the seventh sister, and that is to spend a lot of time going down to the mortal world to carefully find clues... This should be doneγγγγγγ
Just as Peony Zifeng was in deep thought, Peony Yong, who had been depressed because of accidentally leaking his fart, was attracted by the scenery of the Great Wilderness Mountain and its surroundings, and was addicted to the natural beauty here.
This was the first time he had gone away from home, because since he was a child, he was accustomed to seeing pavilions and jade flowers in the heavenly garden, but he had never seen such a vast and desolate and naturally occurring natural scene, he was really very surprised and amazed. Standing on the top of the Great Wilderness Mountain, the wilderness is so flat and vast that you can't see the end at a glance; all kinds of trees, wild grasses, and wild flowers grow freely, they are so unrestrained and stretching for thousands of miles; the visible butterflies, bees, flies, hares, colored birds, beasts and wild birds are also rushing and walking in their own hands; and this great barren mountain under your feet is steep and precipitous, with strange rocks and craggy rocks, and smoke is swirling; looking up at the sky, the sky is so blue and blue, and the white clouds are floating one by one, like a dream.
Ah, the warm sunshine, the steep peaks, the mist that swirls around, the vast wilderness, the beautiful flowers and green grass, the deer singing and the birds chirping, it is really refreshing!
The shadow of the green smoke pile, the white clouds and floating jade, and the light shaker piece Lanxia. Fanghua moves rabbits, strange stones lean on pines, milk bells and dragon balls hang together, lingering eyes full of yellow sand. There are traces of the ravines and cliffs, and the white yarn is sadly danced in the laurel stream. A few green vines often bring rain, and at three o'clock and five o'clock they look like plum blossoms. The sound of running deer is getting farther and farther away, and there are fairies in the barren mountains and wilderness. Diligent and distant to look at all hearts, the peony prince does not miss home.
Peony Yongzheng was intoxicated, and suddenly found that there was a long-standing pine tree under the Qinggang Peak, which grew vigorous and upright, magnificent, and unique. This ancient pine tree is set against the mist of green mountains, showing a style that is different from other similar trees, and it is very remarkable and eye-catching. This made Peony Yong very happy, and he ran a few steps closer to enjoy it. He thought to himself, "If only this tree could be brought back to the palace of Yaotai Garden", and he thought that if he saw this ancient pine tree at the bottom of the cliff, he didn't know how beautiful it wasβand while he was meditating, he suddenly heard a very small voice saying, "Do you think I am a man?" But the voice was still asking, "Is it a man?"
At this time, Prince Zifeng, who was lagging behind, also seemed to hear the voice of speaking, and in the time he rushed over, Peony Yong had already discovered what he was talking about.
It turned out that between the roots and roots of the great pine tree, between the leaves and rhizomes, stood a weasel that was more than half a foot long. I saw its two short front paws, laboriously grasping a broken slipper on top of its head, standing there, looking at Peony Yong with two shiny and dripping eyes, and said, "Look at me as a human?"
Looking at the weasel's funny appearance, Peony Yong felt funny and angry. There was nowhere to vent the frustration that had just been nested in my heart, so I rushed and said, "Aren't you just a thief and a chicken thief? Of course you're a rat!
By the time Peony Zifeng rushed over to stop his son, it was too late.
When the weasel heard this, he lowered his front paws, threw his slippers under the roots, and ran away in smoke.
Peony Zifeng looked at it in his eyes, sighed helplessly and said, "Alas, you kid, how can you talk casually everywhere! Do you know? You've ruined its thousand years of cultivation!"
"Ah?!" Peony cried out in surprise, he really didn't know about this trick. He hurriedly looked around, but there was no sign of the weasel, and then he hung his head and muttered, "IβI didn't know it would be like this." β
Prince Zifeng slowly squatted down in front of his son, held his shoulders with both hands, and said very sadly: "It has practiced for a thousand years, and it can get out of the beast body with just one sentence of a different person." But you have ruined its good deeds. Yong'er, don't you listen to your master's teachings on weekdays, so that as soon as you go out, you frequently make mistakes and transgress the rules? Even if there are some things that you don't have experience and don't understand very well, Yong'er, you should know that 'ordinary people fear fruits, and bodhisattvas fear causes', and you should understand this truth. No matter what people do or say, they must have good thoughts in their hearts, so that they can sow good causes, seek good karma, and finally reap good results. Alasβ" Prince Peony Zifeng stood up and said as if talking to himself: "'The house of goodness must have Yu Qing, and the house of bad deeds must have Yu Yang. "Especially the people of our royal family, we must know how powerful this kind of success is." β
Peony Yong nodded honestly and replied, "Yes, father, the son knows." β
Prince Zifeng stared at his son for a long time, and he felt that it was very necessary to give him some punishment, rather than just listening to him verbally admit his mistakes. So, Prince Peony's expression gradually became solemn, and he said to Peony Yong: "Peony Yong obeys orders!"
The little prince raised his eyes to look at his father's face, and said secretly in his heart: "Oops. As soon as I saw my father's expression, I knew that punishment was a fact that could not be changed. Reluctantly, he did not dare to resist, so he fell on one knee and bowed his head to obey the order.
Prince Zifeng said: "Because you don't respect the ancestral teachings, you have repeatedly violated the clan rules. That is, from this day onwards, you will enter the claustrophobic palace and think about it behind closed doors. Let you familiarize yourself with the recitation of the family rules and family laws, and the laws of the flowering period! Repair a copy of the "Book of Knowing Mistakes and Repentance", and within three days, you must not take a step out of the claustrophobic palace gate!"
Peony Yong agreed: "Yes." The sons respect their father's orders. But he couldn't help muttering in his careful eyes: Dad, don't let me go out for three days, won't I suffocate the baby?
