Chapter Two Hundred and Four: Gift-giving

On Chinese New Year's Eve, the gloomy sky began to rain in winter, sprinkled all over the earth, as if casting a haze over the upcoming New Year, making people unhappy.

The reckless mountains are deserted, and there are many pine and cypress trees that do not wither in winter, bathed in rain, and the branches and leaves become more and more fresh and spiritual.

Call!

A flash of light suddenly appeared, as if it had suddenly emerged from the ground, and it was particularly alarming.

The rain was sprinkled, and it was blocked by the light three feet away, and it could not fall in. In a moment, the light dissipated, revealing the people inside, short in stature, but a robe that was excessively wide. Its hair and beard were all messy, but all over its body were fiery red, like a bunch of humanoid torches.

Firebird Ancestor.

After entering the mountain stream cave, the Firebird Ancestor came out again, but compared to before he entered, he now seemed to be very embarrassed, the magic robes he was wearing were torn in several places, and his thin face was still stained with mud, which did not seem to be in line with his status as a warlock at all.

"Well, how is that good?"

He suddenly sighed and muttered.

"I thought I had an opportunity to create nature, but unexpectedly, there was a bad ancestor living in it, and in the middle of his hand, he was taken down, and he was also banned and became a prisoner of the ranks......"

Recalling that bleak encounter, the Firebird Ancestor showed a depressed look: since his debut, after he became a warlock, he has never suffered any losses because of his cautious and treasureless temperament. But this time, he almost lost his life.

"However, Lord Shazu has entrusted me with his ability to reach the sky, and with a few fingers, he has helped me get through nine extremely difficult knots, which can be regarded as a gift...... Tsk, it is rumored that the ancestor has lived for a thousand years, and he thought that after the catastrophe of thirty-three days, he was no longer alive, but he never thought about it, but he hid underground to retreat and heal. If the news spreads, I don't know how many waves it will make......"

He silently sorted out his thoughts and weighed the pros and cons: "I just don't know, where is the person that Lord Shazu is looking for now?"

Thinking of that person, the Firebird Ancestor immediately took out a piece of plain paper from his body, opened it to watch, and saw a few pens on the paper, vividly outlining a person's face and figure, very young and upright. If Guo Ye Jun was born here, he would definitely be taken aback: without it, it is all because of the human appearance on paper, which is similar to him.

"This person looks like a scholar, but Lord Shazu also said that he is a warlock, and his cultivation is good, if he finds his whereabouts, he will immediately fly to the book to tell him. Pondering, how can there be mysteries everywhere?"

The Firebird Ancestor touched his chin, and his eyes were rolling around, showing that his mind was racing rapidly:

"Oh, what do you think. That's the person designated by Lord Shazu, I just need to complete the entrustment, and then the ban will naturally be lifted, and Lord Shazu will also be rewarded. Maybe you can still worship the door, then it's a big deal. ”

Na Shazu took him down, and did not make much trouble, but just planted an extremely powerful prohibition and ordered him to go out to find Ye Junsheng, just like that.

At the same time, he opened up the nine knots of the Firebird Ancestor to help him improve his cultivation. He also made a promise that if the Firebird Ancestor completed the task well, there would be a rich reward.

The Demon Cultivator Sect is certainly vicious and ferocious, and it is credible to follow the way of nature, and it also attaches great importance to the promise of oaths and the like. Especially those of the level of the ancestor, they will not deceive the juniors.

For this, the Firebird Ancestor was not worried.

Knowing this relationship, he made up his mind and didn't dare to speculate anymore, lest he accidentally provoke the taboo of the ancestor, and then he couldn't eat and walk.

"Well, let's look around for now...... By the way, this place is not far from Yangzhou, so stop by and take a look to see if you can find this. ”

Having made up his mind, the Firebird Ancestor no longer hesitated, and left quickly with his retreat - he found out early in the morning that the nearby area was inaccessible and remote, and there would be no gods patrolling at all in normal times, so he could act boldly. Besides, he is no longer without a sect now, and there is a Evil Ancestor behind him, which is very hard.

......

"The king regards the minister as a sibling, the minister regards the king as the heart, the king regards the minister as a dog and a horse, the minister regards the king as a countryman, the king regards the minister as a mustard, and the minister regards the king as an enemy......"

The sound of reading was so loud that it even drowned out the sound of the rain.

What Ye Junsheng read was from the scriptures in Mencius, which expounded the relationship between monarchs and ministers.

According to the scriptures, there is no so-called "foolish loyalty" in later generations, but is upright and almost equal.

This is the truth of a real reader, who fights based on reason, has the courage and courage. In contrast, clichΓ©s such as "the king wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die" are simply weak.

Ye Junsheng is familiar with the scriptures, but he not only memorizes them for the imperial examination, but also mixes in his own position understanding and interprets them for a second time.

The virtuous path he cultivates also has certain requirements for the scriptures and righteousness, and it is beneficial to review the old and learn the new, which can condense the soul and improve the cultivation.

"Study, you can cultivate. ”

In a word, Nakagi.

Reading and reading, Ye Jun's business was stimulated, and he sat upright, and directly came out of his body, with the Xuanhuang stubborn stone seal of heaven and earth on his head, so he was not afraid of being noticed by Yangzhou Dachenghuang. As long as you control the range of activities and don't go close to the City God Temple, you will naturally be fine.

Since breaking through and stabilizing the realm of the law phase, he has set his sights on the Scattered Immortal Realm, but the demand for the people's hearts and minds in this realm is huge, and he can't be in a hurry. At present, there is only a little bit of preparation, and slowly accumulate.

Having said that, at his current age, stepping into the realm of the Law is already a heavenly posture, even if it is placed in thirty-three days, compared to many children of the immortal family who are born in the "root and Miao Hong", it is not much better.

The image of the soul floated quietly in the room, sitting cross-legged, and the outline of the body was much more condensed than when it was the first time I went out of my body in class. The skin and flesh are skinny, tending to the real body, but on the whole, there is still a sense of frivolity and lack of charm.

Looking at it, it's like a person in a painting.

This is also the reason why his cultivation is not enough.

On the top of the head, the heaven and earth Xuanhuang stubborn stone seal is brilliant, and the wisps of breath are falling, forming a circle of misty, original shape, as if it must be a strange hat, protecting, not letting the breath leak. Under the aperture, a small tripod with three legs and two ears loomed, which was the observation formed by Ye Junsheng's cultivation qi.

Jiuding world, this thing has been known as a symbol of power since ancient times. It is not a sword, nor a sword, nor is it another form, but a tripod, combined with the characteristics of the virtuous way, the meaning is self-evident.

Between the small dings, a touch of cold light suddenly appeared, it was the flying sword "will enter the wine", hanging over, and many Dao qi were uncertain.

If the small tripod condensed by Qi is the internal foundation, then the wine will be the natal means of external performance, and the combination of internal and external is indispensable.

The name "will enter the wine" comes from Ye Junsheng's favorite ancient style poem, which was originally the name of Yuefu tune.

"Brother, it's time to eat!"

Outside the door, Ye Junmei's call suddenly came.

Sou!

The brilliance was exhausted, and the soul was returned, Ye Junsheng covered the scroll and replied with a smile: "It's here." Looking out the window, the light rain gradually stopped.

Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, which is a big day, but the dishes on the table are very simple and simple, and there is no meat. Sitting down, Ye Junsheng swept his eyes and suddenly asked, "Sister, the family almost has no money." ”

"Hmm. ”

Ye Junmei didn't hide it, and he knew that he couldn't hide itβ€”the 100 yuan he spent last time had already been spent.

Living in the city, it is not easy, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, all need money. If you don't have a regular income, you can't make ends meet, and spending money is like running water, which is not durable.

"How many more?"

Ye Junsheng asked again.

Ye Junmei lowered his head slightly: "There are only eight cents left." ”

A very shabby number, so cold that I can't even afford the next meal.

"Oh, I see. ”

Ye Junsheng's answer actually contains another meaning: Don't worry, I will make money. It's just that he didn't say it explicitly, but he knew that his sister would definitely understand.

Ye Jun smiled, not worried at all, this time is different from the past, there is no need to worry.

"Papapa, is anyone home?"

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door and shouts from outside the small courtyard.

At this time, who will come?

Ye Junsheng frowned, got up and went out to open the door.

As soon as I opened the door, I was greeted by a fat face full of a warm smile:

"Who are you?"

Behind the fat-faced owner, there are also three small servants, all of whom are carrying burdens, looking at the packaging, gorgeous and glamorous, all of them are gift scales.

The leading fat-faced man smiled, and bowed his hand and said, "This must be Ye Gongzi, I'm here to give a gift." ”

"What gifts?"

"No, here is a list of gifts, and I also ask Ye Gongzi to count and smile. The man took out a piece of paper.

Ye Junsheng didn't answer, nor did he look at it, and asked indifferently, "Who gave the gift?"

At this time, the neighbors were alarmed, and they came out to see it one after another, and there were many discussions, basically in an envious tone:

Although the gift of the three dans is wrapped, it can still be seen that the approximate varieties are nothing more than silk and satin, gold and silver jewelry, etc., which are of extraordinary value.

This Ye brother and sister looked simple and down, and they really didn't expect that there were rich relatives and friends outside, so they would give big gifts on Chinese New Year's Eve.

Don't be a man.

The fat-faced man smiled and said, "After the son accepts the gift, he will know the name of my master...... Ahem, please let me give you the gift to the house. ”

Ye Junsheng suddenly asked, "Is your master Gu asking?"

The fat-faced man smiled in surprise: "Ye Gongzi is really smart, and he guessed it at once." ”

Ye Junsheng didn't have a smile on his face, looked at him, and then said word for word: "Go back and tell him that I don't know him well, so don't send things...... Also, if you send it again, you will bear the consequences. ”

Before the fat-faced man could speak, there was a babbling sound, and the courtyard door was closed in front of him, and he touched a gray nose, speechless, and half-paid speechless.

"Let's eat. ”

Ye Junsheng walked back to the dining table, sat down, picked up a green vegetable with chopsticks, picked up the white rice, and chewed it with relish.
