245 New heavens and a new earth
The sun rises in the east, the light rain last night is drenched, and the rising fog gradually dissipates in the sun, transforming into a colorful rainbow bridge. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe trees on both sides of the wide official road are tall, and the leaves are bright and full at this time, waving in the wind, fresh and lively. Except for the stone pavement in the middle, which is one zhang wide, the dirt road on both sides is semi-wet and not dry, and it feels a little muddy.
A person walked from afar, walking on the right edge of the stone road, his body was tall and straight, holding a green bamboo in his right hand, his face was as calm as water, Ning was calm and peaceful, the sun was shining on his face, the brilliance was shining, and it was a stream of clouds.
The fire scars on his face have disappeared, his facial features are handsome, and he is beautiful, if it weren't for the gray clothes full of cracks everywhere, he would have a bit of a dusty appearance.
But he obviously didn't care, and walked on foot with a green bamboo the thickness of his thumb, looking leisurely and complacent, not slow.
"Goo~" Xiyun's face was bitter, and he was hungry again. Last night, I finally caught a hare, but I had a heavy belly, and I was pregnant with a child, and seeing its pair of frightened and mournful eyes, Xiyun had to let it go.
Since I practiced the quenching technique, my waist is really not sore, my legs are not painful, and I can walk eight miles and ten miles in one breath - easily. But the stomach is easy to get hungry, and the more you eat, the more wild fruits or anything you don't use at all.
"Click~" A sound of horses' hooves came from behind, Xiyun ignored it, and listened to a young voice anxiously urging the horse to move quickly, "Drive~"
The horse was extremely fast, tall and long-legged, pitch-black as ink, with a diamond-shaped white spot on its forehead, very miraculous, galloping across the dirt road, "popping" twice, splashing two clouds of mud and falling on the hem of Xiyun's trousers.
Xiyun frowned, and the horse was already two feet away.
"Shh~" Immediately the passenger suddenly called softly, the horse's hind hooves paused, and immediately stopped, that is, no one stood up, and did not rush a foot more, but the front hooves stepped on the ground twice, which seemed to have extra strength.
Immediately, the passenger was dressed in black brocade, and suddenly turned around, revealing a white face, handsome with a sense of weakness, frowning, and looking worried.
"Little master, that's the official road, it's better for you to walk to the dirt road next to here, if you show it to the government personnel, you will cause trouble. ”
After he finished speaking hurriedly, he turned his head to leave, but suddenly turned back again, and his eyes fell on the mud on Xiyun's trouser legs, "Ah." I can't help it, I should have dismounted and apologized to you, but I was in a hurry to ......get home."
Xiyun said lightly: "It's not you, it's your horse." If you are in a hurry, why stop?"
The young man froze for a moment, and thought to himself, "This monk is so strange when he speaks, how can his clothes be torn like this, but he is still clean...... Oops, don't waste time. He took out a silver ingot from his sleeve and said, "I really have to hurry up in time, there are a few taels of silver here, and I have the right to compensate, please continue." "Throw it over, and urge the horse to go on the road.
Xiyun said, "Do you have anything to eat?" and his gaze fell on a burden next to the saddle.
The white-faced man followed his gaze, was slightly stunned, and said secretly: "Can he smell it?" "I took off the baggage and threw it away," there is. I'm almost home, these are all for you, there are a few steamed buns and oil cakes in it, don't throw them away if you don't eat oil cakes, ten miles ahead to Shuikou City, you give ...... to the beggars in the city"
Xiyun only thought it was funny, this person was in a hurry, and he seemed to be in a hurry, but he couldn't stop talking, interrupted him, and said, "Is there wine in the cowhide bag?"
The young man was stunned again, "Wine, oh, it's water." "Reach for the leather bag.
Xiyun said: "I don't need water, I'll eat oil cakes." ”
When the young man heard this, he lost his mind a little, and the monk suddenly reacted, secretly scolding himself for having a lot ......of trouble at this time, and hurriedly turned his head and raised his whip, and slapped his horse away.
Xiyun was holding the silver in his left hand, and the green bamboo in his right hand was hanging a burden, and he secretly wondered: This guy didn't notice that the horse had splashed mud on me before, and he suddenly stopped, could it be just to remind me not to walk on the official road......? Ten taels of silver to pay for a torn clothes, the shot is bold enough, and specially instructed me not to throw away the oil cake of a few pennies, what a strange boy, really like the sour rotten scholar that others say, but he rode a good horse, strange.
The strange boy in Xiyun's eyes also felt that this monk was strange, he looked so young and handsome, what was not good to do, but he was a monk, and it was understandable to be a monk, but he asked someone for wine, it would be too much.
Xiyun ate four steamed buns and three oil cakes, touched his stomach, and muttered, "I didn't eat enough." ”
After walking for three miles, a fork in the road appeared on the right. Xiyun looked into the distance of the fork in the road, and there was a manor about two miles away, and there were several clear horseshoe prints on the ground.
Xiyun stopped, thought for a while, and walked towards the fork in the road, "That kid is bold, give me a horse." ”
Gradually, Xiyun found a piece of land enclosed on the right side of the manor, and there were several tall horses running around in it, as fast as the wind, all of them were very powerful.
Strangely, however, the neighing of horses could be heard, but the vast manor was silent, and if it had not been for the sight of the horseshoe prints on the ground, a faint smoke rising from the left rear of the manor, he would almost have suspected that there was no one to settle here.
"That kid is in a hurry, and this place is so weird, it looks like something is going to happen. Xiyun smiled slightly, didn't shy away, and walked straight away.
"Returning to the Garden", Xiyun walked closer, the scale of the manor is not small, the white walls are white, the walls are white, the walls are black tiles, the two vermilion lacquer gates are closed, and there is no figure. He was about to knock on the door, but he stopped thinking about it, and his body moved slightly, and he swept towards the smoke.
Normally, at this point, I should have enjoyed a hearty breakfast with my grandfather, father, mother, brother, and sister in the dining room, but today I can only come to the kitchen hungry and look at it, the little boy is hungry and growls, and softly says, "Sister, I'm so hungry." ”
The boy looked like he was seven or eight years old, thin and weak, with a pale face, with a bit of a sickly color, but his eyes were very smart.
There was a one-foot-five-high chair on the stove floor, on which stepped on a little girl, dressed in a water-green dress, rolled up her sleeves, revealing two small hands like white lotus roots, and two small pigtails tied on the back of her head. ”
In the steaming water, the little girl looked beautiful, but her cheeks and forehead were black, full of soot, she laboriously put the thick wooden lid on the lid, jumped down from the chair, walked to the stove, and dialed the firewood a few times, the fire soared, reflecting her little face red.
At this moment, the little boy came with a small wooden basin in both hands, and put it on the ground with great difficulty and care, and a wave of water splashed out.
The little girl said, "What are you doing?"
The little boy said, "Sister, your face is full of ashes, wash it quickly." (To be continued.) )
