Chapter 651: Come in and talk
But thinking of curing the illness of the little official as soon as possible, he also hardened his head, he slowly walked to the well, lying on the edge of the well, looking at the calm well water, there happened to be a moon reflected in the well water, it was really beautiful.
Zhao Zheng watched, slowly held his breath, hehe, spewed out a fire, the fire was huge, straight to the water, maybe it was the reason for the night, the fire was extraordinarily bright and mellow, Zhao Zheng took out a fire, suddenly remembered something, involuntarily opened his eyes to see, expected to see something, sure enough, I saw that there was also a fire in the well water sprayed up from the well water, Zhao Zheng was startled again, hurriedly stopped, opened his eyes and looked into the well, only to see a bunch of fire in the well water, with Zhao Zheng spitting fire stopped, the fire also slowly retreated into the well water。
Zhao Zheng's heart was pounding, he didn't dare to stay here for a long time, and hurriedly got up and returned to his room.
A few days ago, he was startled when he saw the fire in the well, and gradually forgot about it in the past few days, but he didn't expect the fire to appear again just now, and he was taken aback again, thinking that it was a strange thing that there was a fire in the well.
He tossed and turned, but he couldn't sleep, and thought about it for half the night, and fell asleep with his eyes closed in the early hours of the morning, but suddenly thought in a dream: "As soon as I stopped, the string of fires in the well slowly retreated, could it be that the fire that I sprayed led out the string of fires in the well, and if I kept breathing fire, would the string of fires in the well also come out of the well?"
He thought about it again and again, until he came to his senses, thinking that there must be something strange about the well, and when he told Xia Jinhe about it before, he didn't care much, it seemed that the Xia family didn't know the strangeness in the well.
He scratched his head and thought about it for a while, but he still couldn't figure out what was going on, and he had the heart to run to try again, but he was a little timid for a while.
At this time, the butler Fu came to call Zhao Zheng to have breakfast, and told Zhao Zheng that the leprosy on the little official's body had all fallen off after sleeping all night, and now there is no need to drink limescale anymore, and it will be good to maintain it slowly.
Zhao Zheng listened to it and was really happy for a day, and hurriedly followed the Fu housekeeper to the dining room, Xia Jinhe was already sitting and waiting for him, and said with a smile that the little official's leprosy all fell off after sleeping all night, Zhao Zheng heard it and was overjoyed, it seems that he has finally been freed from the matter of spitting fire, and he doesn't have to ask for me anymore.
Xia Jinhe sealed ten taels of gold as a thank you gift to Zhao Zheng, Zhao Zheng refused to do it, Xia Jinhe said that he had sold the candlestick to Cistanche Valley for a price of one hundred taels of gold, these ten taels are really nothing, but he wanted to express his gratitude to Zhao Zheng, and Zhao Zheng had to accept it embarrassed.
Xia Jinhe also instructed the butler Fu to return the donkey to Zhao Zheng, and said that if Zhao Zheng was okay, he would stay for a few more days, Zhao Zheng listened to Xia Jinhe's words and clearly wanted to let him go, he was a little angry in his heart, just cured the illness of the little official, they felt that they didn't need themselves, and they wanted to send themselves away, alas, maybe they were not attractive, they felt that they didn't need to breathe fire anymore, so they felt that they were dispensable, he immediately said that he had been out for a long time, and it was time to go home, Xia Jinhe said a lot of polite words, and finally said that he was going to see his son's condition, and he couldn't send Zhao Zheng away in person。
Zhao Zheng listened to the heart is really aggrieved, he didn't say that he was going to leave today, but he didn't say anything at the moment, after eating, the Fu housekeeper really took the donkey out and gave it back to Zhao Zheng, Zhao Zheng saw that the donkey has been in a lot of spirit these days, he was very happy, and the donkey was also very excited to see him.
Zhao Zheng originally came to Xia's house to save the fox, but after he came, he didn't find the place where the fox was imprisoned, and this kind of thing is not easy to ask people, so this matter was delayed, and now he is leaving, he can't help but think of the fox again, he doesn't know where he is being held, he has been walking back and forth in the Xia family for the past few days, and he is already very familiar with the Xia family, but he didn't notice a trace of the fox.
He went back to his room dejectedly, took the basket, said goodbye to Steward Fu, and walked out of Xia's house.
When he came to the open place, he couldn't help but have a burst of melancholy in his heart, it seems that the matter of saving the fox has been in vain, why is he so useless, although he knows that the fox is here, but he is powerless, he hesitates and doesn't want to leave, and wants to go back to further observe the Xia family, find the location of the fox, he was thinking about how to tell Xia Jinhe the reason why he came back, and suddenly heard a shout from behind: "Zhao Dongjia, where are you going? ”
Zhao Zheng looked back, only to see that I ran up panting from behind, still holding a pack of medicine in my hand, it turned out that yesterday I drank too much wine and slept all afternoon, so I didn't go to Zhao Zheng, it was already midnight after waking up, today he heard the news that Zhao Zheng was leaving, so he hurried out, and came out to see Zhao Zheng holding a donkey in one hand and a basket in the other.
Zhao Zheng saw that it was attributed to me, so he stopped, and wanted to ask attributed to me why he didn't come yesterday, but seeing that attribution to me was running to himself quickly, he suddenly thought of something, attributed to me, I was not going to rob his donkey and shrimp sister, so frightened that he hurriedly jumped on the donkey, shouted to run, and didn't care about saying hello to me, and passed away.
Attributed to my panting, I only saw the figure of the donkey gone, hatefully threw the bag of arsenic in his hand to the ground, and watched the prey in his hand fly away like this, it was really a bit of a gritted teeth, he still wanted to stabilize Zhao Zheng first, and slowly seize the donkey and shrimp, but he didn't expect Zhao Zheng to be so weak-hearted, as soon as he saw himself, he ran, as if he was afraid that he would rob him, and he didn't want to think about where he could rob Zhao Zheng as a child.
He scolded an idiot in his heart, and hurried back to instigate him to hurry up if he didn't have to. The donkey carried Zhao Zheng and ran for more than ten miles in one breath before slowly stopping, Zhao Zheng looked at me and did not chase me, and his mood slowly relaxed, but thinking that he was getting farther and farther away from the Xia family, and the matter of saving the fox was already in the soup, and he wanted to go back, and he was a little jealous of me, although I was a child, but I always felt that it was not my opponent, if I went back, my donkey and shrimp would definitely be attributed to me using conspiracy to get rid of it, the donkey was okay, the shrimp was promised by himself to take good care of others, if he lost it, his sin would be great, so the shrimp sister must not be lost。
He wandered for a while, and finally despaired.
Looking back, he didn't look in the direction of the Xia family.
He sat on the donkey and walked slowly, the farther away from the Xia family, the heavier Zhao Zheng's heart became.
A man and a donkey, walking slowly in the desert without people, slowly moving away from the bleak and lonely south, towards the prosperous north.
Zhao Zheng enjoyed the scenery while rushing on the road during the day, and found a random place to rest at night, and the ten taels of gold given to him by Xia Jinhe were enough for him to spend on the road.
Walking leisurely like this, along the way, Zhao Zheng thought about his thoughts while walking, remembering that he had been away from Fushoumen for so long, and he didn't know what happened to the Bull Demon King; he remembered the spider monster he met in the broken garden, and he didn't know that the Xia family would treat her by himself; he remembered that he made a special trip to the Xia family to save the fox but couldn't even find out any news about the fox, thinking about this, he couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart, why couldn't he do anything well?
The more I thought about it, the more depressed I became, and I felt sorry for myself, and for a moment I really wanted to go back to the Xia family to save the fox again, but how could I save it when I went back? I didn't know where the fox was kept? The people of the Xia family would definitely not tell me. People often say that life is unsatisfactory in the world, but there are ten unsatisfactory things in their own unsatisfactory things.
He sighed all the way, walked all the way, and felt sorry for himself while walking, and this day he arrived at a capital, he walked a little thirsty, so he found a tea stall and sat down to drink a bowl of tea and then left, ordered tea, and the tea doctor poured him tea, he drank and rested for a while, and then he only heard a tea drinker next to him say: "There are two more girls in our city who have been kidnapped by monsters." ”
The other man who was drinking tea with him said, "Is it?
The man in front said, "It's been a few days." ”
The other nodded and said, "There are so many things like this these days. ”
The first person said: "We have to close the door of the house, and we must take care of our wife and daughter." ”
The other nodded yes.
The two of them sighed and gossiped about something else.
Zhao Zheng was suddenly shocked when he heard this, he was extremely angry all the way, and he had nowhere to vent, and now he was just going to save people to vent his depression.
Maybe it's because he's been too angry these days, but he's not scared at all now, but has some passionate feelings, as if a person is helpless about one thing, and when he will look for another thing to seek psychological comfort.
Zhao Zheng's current mood is almost like this, he originally traveled thousands of miles to save the fox, but he didn't expect it to backfire, he didn't even see a fox hair after running all the way, and the helplessness in his heart couldn't be expressed in words, and now when he heard such a hijacking thing, he seemed to have finally found an opponent to vent, and his depressed heart seemed to have found a place to vent, and he suddenly became heroic.
When he thought about it and wanted to inquire about the location of the monster, the two tea drinkers just now had already finished drinking tea and left, so Zhao Zheng asked Dr. Cha about it, but he didn't expect Dr. Tea to know about it, and he happily told Zhao Zheng at the moment, saying that it was on a barren mountain twenty miles away from the capital.
Zhao Zheng asked for the path, paid for the tea, and set off majestically.
The donkey ran fast, and it didn't take long for the twenty-mile journey to arrive, and sure enough, there was a continuous barren mountain in front of him, and the path gradually became more and more difficult to walk, so Zhao Zheng jumped off the donkey and walked slowly.
When he walked to the top of the mountain, the sun was about to set, and in the afterglow of the sun, Zhao Zheng saw a cave in front of him, and at the top of the cave there were three words: Jinguang Cave.
Zhao Zheng was a little dizzy, how did he come to the Golden Light Cave? Scratching his head and thinking for a while, he suddenly realized that the monster they were talking about was the Golden Light Cave Master.
I had been here before, but at that time, I was so panicked that I didn't remember the path here at all, and it wasn't until I saw the three words Jinguang Cave that Zhao Zheng remembered it.
It's like yesterday.
It's like a dream.
It's not a dream, it's a dream, it's not a dream.
Zhao Zheng stood at the entrance of the cave, because he suddenly lost all his passion because he saw the Golden Light Cave, the Golden Light Cave Lord was just one of his own defeated men, and now he would not achieve anything by subduing him again, Zhao Zheng's ambition was suddenly lost.
He looked at those three words, sighed, shook his head, and wanted to leave.
But when I turned around, I suddenly thought that there were still two girls suffering here, and I had to save them from the fire pit.
After thinking about it, he picked up a stone from the ground and knocked on the two closed stone doors of the Golden Light Cave.
"Anyone?"
He shouted.
There has been no movement for a long time, isn't the Golden Light Cave Master at home?
He scratched his head, and was wondering when he heard two stone doors creak open.
Zhao Zheng's heart jumped, and he condensed his mind, preparing to use the word heh as soon as he saw the Jinguang Cave Master, spewing fire to strike first.
The two stone doors opened slowly, stopped halfway open, revealing the face of a white-haired old man, looked at Zhao Zheng, and asked, "Who are you looking for?"
Zhao Zheng immediately wanted to breathe out the fire, but when he saw that the person who came was different from what he expected, he hurriedly swallowed the breath that was about to breathe fire, and his stomach was immediately hot.
The old man looked at him and asked, "Who are you looking for?"
Zhao Zheng stabilized his mind for a while, and asked in surprise, "Isn't this the home of the Golden Light Cave Lord?"
The old man said directly: "Yes, I am the Golden Light Cave Master." ”
Zhao Zheng's suppressed fire almost rushed up from his stomach, the Golden Light Cave Master he saw in front of him was seriously inconsistent with the Golden Light Cave Master in his memory, and he couldn't accept what he saw in front of him.
He swallowed hard, and said carefully: "How can you be the Golden Light Cave Master? Isn't the Golden Light Cave Lord ......" He wanted to say that the Golden Light Cave Lord is not a monster, but you are also called the Golden Light Cave Master but an old man, which is seriously inconsistent with the facts, he thought so in his heart, but he felt that it was a little inappropriate to say it, so he didn't say it.
The old man seemed to be a little unhappy, and said angrily: "Why am I not the Golden Light Cave Master, I don't know you, you can go." ”
Saying that he turned his head and was about to close the door, at this moment, the old man saw the donkey behind Zhao Zheng, the donkey was lowering his head and sniffing on the ground, the old man saw at a glance that the donkey had strange bones, different from the donkey, his heart moved, and he stretched out his head again, and asked, "Is the donkey yours?"
Zhao Zheng nodded, and the old man pulled the door open and said, "Come in and talk." ”
Zhao Zheng followed the old man into the cave, and the donkey also swayed in, only to see that the pattern in the cave had not changed much from when he came before, and the old man sat down in the middle, so that Zhao Zheng also sat aside.
