Taking advantage of the chaos of the Mongol army, Zong Zheng snatched a horse from the Mongol army and left Diaoyu City, riding all the way to the east.

The night was dark, and Zongzheng's heart was empty and dazed. Suddenly I felt that the world was so big that I didn't know where to go, so I ran all the way.

The morning sun is rising, pouring a golden glow, the horse gradually slowed down, after running all the way last night, the horse has been a little unbearable, Zong Zheng also felt a little tired, so he got off the horse, led the horse to a place where the water and grass are abundant, the dew on the tip of the grass has not yet dropped, and it glows with red light in the morning light.

When the horses had eaten almost, the hour had passed, and the dewdrops had disappeared without a trace, Zong Zheng felt very sleepy, and couldn't help yawning, and then bolted the horse under a tree, and picked up a cool and soft place under the tree, but fell asleep peacefully!

When he woke up, he found that the horse tied to the tree was gone, and immediately anxiously searched around, and after making sure that the horse was lost, he walked forward helplessly.

After walking all the way, the stomach became hungry, but there were no inns and people along the way, so I had to endure and continue to move forward, and it was going to be dark in a blink of an eye.

Suddenly, seeing a slight fire coming out of the mountain road in the distance, Zong Zheng thought that he would go to a place immediately, and then he could have a delicious meal, so he beat his spirits and lifted his breath and walked towards the firelight.

Zong Zheng followed the firelight but did not find any houses, stopped in front of a cave, saw the firelight coming out of the hole, a smell of meat wafted out of the cave, more and more he found that he was more hungry, thinking that there must be someone in the cave, so he walked softly to the entrance of the cave.

Zong Zheng looked inside and saw that the cave was very shallow, and there was a bald old man with a white beard roasting pheasants on the fire, whistling, and looking very happy.

That man was the Master of Sorrow.

Sadly noticed that someone outside the cave was looking at her, so she shouted, "If you want to enter, you can enter, what do you see?"

Zong Zheng thought that there was nowhere to go now, and if he could get half a piece of meat, he could be beaten for a while, so he stepped into the cave, took a closer look, and found that the person in front of him was a monk, just wearing a gray rotten cloak, so he mistakenly thought it was a bald old man, and saw that the old monk in front of him actually ate meat, and couldn't help but be a little shocked, so he asked: "The master is a monk, how can he eat meat?"

Smiled sadly: "Who said that you can't eat meat if you leave your family? Are you greedy and want to eat it yourself, so you use this to teach me a lesson?"

Zong Zheng swallowed his saliva and explained weakly: "Don't misunderstand, the younger generation has no intention of teaching. ”

glared at Zong Zheng sadly, and said angrily: "Then you just shut up for me, I hate others teaching me the most." ”

This is true, sadness often causes trouble, so he is often admonished by the abbot and several uncles and brothers, and according to his reckless nature, he naturally can't bear it.

Zong Zheng didn't dare to ask more when he saw that the master's temper and behavior were very strange, but just asked: "Master, can you give me a piece of meat?" The junior has been on the road for a day, and he has not eaten yet, so he is really hungry. ”

glanced at Zong Zheng sadly, and replied coldly: "Think beautifully! It's your own business to be hungry, what's my business!"

Zong Zheng saw that the monk in front of him had a very big temper and sharp words, and felt weak, so he found a place to sit down and said no more.

Sadly, he smelled the mountain chicken and said to himself: "Pheasant, pheasant, it's not that I want to eat you, life and death are fate, you are destined to be eaten by me, you don't blame me, I can only blame you for your bad life." ”

After saying that, he bit down hard on the chicken's buttocks.

Zong Zheng couldn't help but feel funny when he saw his sad words and deeds, so he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

After hearing this, Sorrow turned his body to Zongzheng and said, "What are you laughing at?"

Zong Zheng replied: "I laugh at the master, obviously you killed this pheasant, but you blamed the sin on the pheasant. ”

Sad likes to rub his tongue with others the most, so he defended to Zongzheng: "Of course it's the pheasant's fault, you think, I'm hungry, right, and then this stupid chicken ran in front of me, I was thinking, why didn't a bowl of rice or a bowl of noodles run in front of me, and then I realized that this pheasant was born destined to be in that place, and that time was given to me to eat." ”

Zong Zheng listened to it in a mess, he didn't understand it at all, and he didn't want to argue with this strange old monk, so he said lightly "crooked" and turned his head to get ready to sleep.

Of course I'm not happy to be sad, I've been suffocating crazy these days, and I finally found someone to fight with myself, how can I let it go. Then Chao Zongzheng kicked lightly in the back, and said, "Hey, boy, as long as you chat with me, I will give you half a pheasant." ”

Zong Zheng wanted to refuse, but his stomach was really hungry, and he turned his head and replied briskly: "Deal! Give me chicken first." As he spoke, he handed out his right hand.

Sadness didn't say a word, then pulled the chicken legs on both sides, divided the chicken in half, glanced at it, and handed the small portion in his left hand to Zong Zheng.

Zong Zheng got the chicken leg and stuffed it into his mouth, gobbling it up, and it didn't look ugly.

Sad admires Zongzheng's appearance of eating chicken, quite has his own style, and takes the opportunity to untie the wine jug on his waist and hand it to Zongzheng,

"Don't be in a hurry, come, take a drink. ”

Zongzheng didn't know what wine was, so he took the flask from Sorrow's hand and poured it into his mouth.

The liquor flowed through his throat, and he stabbed his throat with a spicy rush, and Zongzheng immediately spit the wine and meat on the ground.

"What is this? Why is it so bad. ”

Sad to see that Zong Zheng spit his wine on the ground, feeling that it was a waste, I wanted to teach this boy who didn't know the height of the sky, and then heard him ask a question, so he turned from anger to curiosity, and thought in his heart: "Does he really not know what wine is?"

Sadness took the flask from Zongzheng's hand, took a sip of it herself, showed a look of great enjoyment, and turned to stare at Zongzheng and replied,

"It's wine, and all the good things you've spoiled!"

Zong Zheng didn't think that wine was a good thing, so he just said 'oh'.

The fire gradually weakened, and the light of the fire faded slightly for half a minute, and a few more firewood were added to the fire sadly.

Subsequently, Sorrow poured out his strange experience of more than half a year to Zongzheng, Zongzheng listened to the sad chatter for a long time, and was really sleepy, but since he agreed to the sorrow, and ate the chicken into his stomach, it seemed unreasonable to not listen to him after talking, and it was not Zongzheng's nature, so he also listened to the sad chatter until he couldn't stay up in the second half of the night, and fell asleep after listening!

The next day, when the fire had been reduced to ashes, Zongzheng woke up and was about to leave, wanting to say goodbye to Sorrow to show politeness and respect, but when he saw the old monk meditating on the ground with his eyes closed, he didn't want to disturb his rest, so he tiptoed to leave.

Zong Zhengcai walked a few steps lightly, and said sadly behind his back: "Young people are really rude, and they won't tell me if they want to leave." "Half blame, half banter.

Zong Zheng hurriedly explained: "No, master, I didn't dare to disturb your rest when I saw that your eyes were closed, so I didn't say goodbye to you. ”

Sadness didn't mean to blame after hearing this, but just opened her eyes and asked Zongzheng's name.

Zong Zheng just wanted to speak, but suddenly thought that Mei couldn't use this name, so he casually named another name.

Zong Zhengzi replied in a straight voice: "Master, my surname is Mei, my name is out, the plum of plum blossoms is out of breath." ”

Sadness was overjoyed after hearing this, and couldn't help laughing: "Mei Izui, hahahaha, it's really sad that your father and mother gave you this name." ”

Zong Zheng laughed when he saw the sadness and asked, "Mei is sad when she comes out, so what is your name?"

Sorrow stopped laughing, and replied solemnly: "I don't have a name, the old man is sad, sad sad, sad sad. ”

Zong Zheng laughed after hearing this: "Hey, sad, it's really sad." ”

After hearing this, Sorrow knew that Zong was laughing at him, so he replied: "It's better to be sad than to be unproductive." ”

Zong Zheng saw that he was a little angry, and thought that he was an elder again, so he didn't say anything more.

Sadness moved her eyebrows and asked, "I said, where are you going to go?"

Zong Zheng was silent for a while, and was asked sadly.

"Master, to be honest, the world is so big, I really don't know where to go?"

"It's sad that I don't even know where to go. Sadness didn't notice Zongzheng's sadness and confusion at all, and joked as always.

Zong Zheng asked rhetorically, "Then master, where are you going?"

Sadness replied naturally, "I don't know where I'm going?"

After hearing this, Zong Zheng felt more and more that the master in front of him was ridiculous, he didn't know where he was going, and he had to laugh at others, which was really ridiculous.

Sadness since leaving Shaolin, he wandered alone and freely, and suddenly felt that Zong Zheng could fight with himself and have some fun, so he happily said: "Acquaintance is fate, since the two of us don't know where to go, why don't we go together, walk casually, and look at it, just go east, what do you think?"

Zong Zheng felt that he didn't know where to go for a while, so it was better to follow this monk and take a look, so he readily agreed: "Okay, just keep going east." ”

With that, the two of them walked together to the east mountain road.

On the road, sadness was not serious, the two talked and laughed, and after walking for a long time, the two came to a small town.

A burst of wine fragrance wafted by, sad and sensitive nose asked and then followed the wine to an inn, yesterday's wine has already been drunk, asked the air full of wine, sad alcohol addiction again, just not good to talk to Zongzheng, and Zongzheng said: "Look, we have been walking for a long time, this stomach is also hungry, we might as well go into this inn to eat something and then go on the road." ”

Zong Zheng felt a little hungry, but he was still a little hesitant, remembering the last time he was beaten in the inn, he was still a little jealous of the inn in his heart, but after all, there was sadness, and it was a sad proposal, so he felt that Sadness was naturally familiar with the inn, so he would not fall into the embarrassing situation last time, and he could learn about the inn with Sadness, and he would not make a mistake next time, so he nodded and agreed to Sadness.
