A breakfast was also a black cake made of algae with the fish soup left over from last night, and after the three of them finished eating, the blue girl took the two of them to Dongluo City.
Along the way, the blue girl and the two continued to chat about the customs and interesting things about the Dongluo country, it turned out that there was no obvious change in the solar terms in the Dongluo country, so their work and rest time was completely determined by the fish in the river, and the fishing and breeding period of a large number of edible fish will be planned as 'Shangyuan' and 'Xiayuan' for a year, and the remaining days in the middle are used as holiday rest. Lan Yatou said that now is the beginning of the breeding period, and she has a small pond at home as a fish field, so her father and mother have to go to the water inlet of the town far away in the north to purchase fish fry for this year, and this season is the busiest, so the children in Dongluo Country do not have to go to school in this season, and have to stay at home to help their parents.
Because the teacher also has to eat, so teaching can only be regarded as a side job, and the gentleman usually takes up a job in the yamen, because the people here love peace, there has not been a case for ten days and half a month, so the yamen is also the most idle place.
Talking and talking, a few people finally came to the outside of the city of the East Luo Kingdom, the world looked at it, but saw that this city is different from the city of the outside world, although there are also city walls, but there are no soldiers to guard, the faces of the people are full of smiles, that smile is not pretentious, but sincere, the world sighed, and saw that the people in this snail live a really happy life.
Alas, if only the world out there could be like here. If that's the case, what more do you need to seek immortals and seek the Tao, what kind of magic weapons and Dao techniques do you need? It's already a fairyland, okay.
With this emotion, the three of them entered the city, after entering the city, Xiaobai always felt uncomfortable, it is no wonder, as a 'foreigner', their clothing and height are very different from the people here, so it is no wonder that they will stare at the two of them with the kind of eyes that look at animals, and they don't feel anything about this life, but Xiaobai, who is born with a keen sense, has read other feelings in the eyes of those people.
Those feelings were a little like fear, suspicion, and even a little disdain mixed in, which made her feel very strange, but these feelings were not visible on the blue girl's body.
Why is that?
Xiaobai didn't say anything, so he had to bow his head and follow Shisheng on the neat street, and at this moment, I saw the blue girl pointing her little finger ahead and saying, "Brother Shisheng, Sister Xiaobai, look, that is the statue of our god." β
In fact, before she could speak, Shisheng had already smelled a strange fragrance. The two of them looked up, but saw a strange building not far ahead, which should be their temple here, and there were three tall statues in front of the house, and there was no incense in this snail, so the statues were full of all kinds of strange flowers before, and the smell of those flowers was refreshing, and the smell was very useful in the heart.
Since Shisheng himself was also very interested in his ancestor, he and Xiaobai stepped forward, and the three statues were made vividly, although they were wearing clothes made of similar fish skin, but their faces were similar to those outside. The blue girl explained to the two of them, saying that the person in the middle was the 'Youyou Dao Man'.
Shisheng saw that this secluded Taoist looked very ordinary, a lean and lean young man, with long eyebrows, a pinch of beard on his chin, and an animal that could be vaguely distinguished as a monkey on his shoulder, this should be the old monkey of the Crane Dao, I really don't know what this demon monkey would think if he knew that his statue was pinched like this.
Shisheng looked at his ancestor, his statue was kind and smiling, and he suddenly had some good feelings, but when he looked at the other two, he was a little surprised in his heart.
Because the other two statues are not Taoist priests, the statue on the left hand side is full of muscles, bareheaded, with a swastika written on the forehead, and the hands are folded with beads on their hands, which is obviously the dress of a monk from the Western Regions. The other had a long shawl and a thin face, a Confucian temperament, his eyes were slightly open and straight ahead, a thin rope was tied to his forehead, his right hand was hanging and holding a small drum, and his left hand was indeed a skull with a row of feathers.
The blue girl said to the two of them: "Of these three immortals, the one in the middle is the Youyou Daoist, and the one next to him is said to be a 'monk' in your world, and the god name is 'Yanqian Monk'." And the one on the right, the god name is 'Shaopeng Witch Officer'.
In fact, before the introduction of the blue girl, Shisheng felt that the long-headed guy was a little familiar, and his dress was very similar to the 'witch' he had seen in his previous travels around the world.
The profession of witch is much older than Buddhism, according to legend, witchcraft was prevalent in the Yanhuang era, but then for some reason slowly declined, in this chaotic world of people contending with a hundred schools of thought in various sects of monasticism, the descendants of witchcraft are very low-key, so that they gradually faded out of the stage, only a few wizards silently in front of the folk exorcists, and their methods, but few people know.
I really didn't expect that my grandfather's friends actually had monks and wizards. This is good, Buddhism and Taoism let him occupy all, it stands to reason that the three of them pacified the last chaos in the world, the world reasoned: it should be like this, the time can be right, after the last troubled times, the ancestor Youyou Taoist created the incarnation of the Doumi Temple and then left the monkey to fly away, but what about the other two?
I'm afraid no one can know this, after all, it's been so long.
Anyway, now that he has seen Master Zu, it is also fate, so he kowtowed to the quiet Taoist three times in the strange eyes of the onlookers, and the blue girl saw that there were more people around, so she said a little unnaturally: "That, big brother Shisheng, sister Xiaobai, let's go." β
Shisheng nodded, and then the three of them got into an alley, and the blue girl obviously quickened her pace, and at this moment, Shisheng also felt that something was wrong, so he asked the blue girl: "Little sister, what are you running to? What's wrong with those people, how do you look at me as if there is hatred?"
The blue girl smiled embarrassedly, then sighed and said, "I'm really sorry, big brother Shisheng, you should also see it, but they don't have a grudge against you, but they hate you a little, or are afraid of you." β
Shisheng raised his eyebrows, thinking that I don't eat people, why do they hate me? But since the blue girl said so, there must be a secret in this, so Shisheng asked why.
At this moment, the teacher's house arrived, so the blue girl said to them: "I can't tell, let the gentleman tell you, he is the most learned person in the city." β
While talking, I saw the blue girl come to a large courtyard, open her mouth and shout, "Sir, is Mr. at home?"
After shouting two or three times, the door was pushed open, and a middle-aged man wearing a black fish skin walked out, this middle-aged man was tall and tall, his face was white, his head was neat, and he smiled when he saw the blue girl: "Blue girl, I usually have a headache when I see me, why do you want to go to school today?"
The blue girl smiled awkwardly, and then said: "Sir, don't laugh, yesterday I met two foreigners' brothers and sisters, and I specially brought them to you, hoping that you can give them guidance." β
After that, the blue girl turned her head to look, and Shisheng and Xiaobai also smiled a little embarrassedly, and gave a salute to the teacher, and the teacher looked at the two of them for a moment, and even his expression froze, fortunately, this person did not look at them like monsters like other Dongluo people, and soon he regained his original expression, only to see him say to the two of them: "Two distinguished guests, it is really a long way to welcome, please, please." β
As he spoke, he invited the two of them to the house, which was very large and elegantly furnished, obviously much more upscale than the blue girl's home, and the teacher invited the two to the living room, made a pot of tea-like aquatic algae for the two to drink, and then talked to them.
It turned out that this teacher was named Banan, and he had previously said that he was the most learned person in the whole city, and he usually taught, and also worked in the yamen to help the people mediate disputes, and looked at the way he talked to the two of them, it was obvious that he was a person who had seen the world, and after introducing each other, Shisheng told them how the two of them were sucked into this 'conch of the four seas' at the bottom of the lake, and then he asked: "Mr. Ba, why do the people in this city look at us with such strange eyes?"
I saw Mr. Naba looking at Shisheng, and after thinking for a while, he sighed: "Two distinguished guests, since you spent the night at Lan Yatou's house last night, presumably this little girl who loves to talk has already told you about the folk history of my Dongluo country, do you know that the two swordsmen came here to eliminate demons more than 30 years ago?"
When the blue girl heard that the husband said that she talked a lot, she pouted unhappily, but in fact she did talk a lot, so Shisheng nodded, and then said: "Well, if I am not mistaken, those two swordsmen should be my uncles." β
"Shaoxia is a disciple of Doumi?" Mr. Naba was obviously very surprised, after saying this, he looked at the two of them thoughtfully, and Shisheng nodded, he was also a little surprised, so he wiped out Doumi's waist card and asked, "Mr. Ba also knows about Doumiguan?"
Mr. Naba took the waist card in his hand and looked at it carefully for a long time, and then opened his mouth and sighed: "It's really fate, I didn't expect that more than 30 years later, another disciple of Doumiguan came here............ Don't hide it from the two, thirty years ago, we were brothers, and the two Taoist elders met each other and were still very good friends. β
It turned out that the two people who were laughing at the time came here to get rid of the demons, and after killing the spirit for the Dongluo Kingdom, they wanted to leave, but because the local people were grateful to the two of them, they didn't say anything and let them go like this, just begging them to stay here for a few more days, and they were also a little grateful.
And the two Taoist leaders saw that the people here were so enthusiastic, so they also agreed, and stayed here for more than ten days before leaving, and in the days they lived here, they can be said to be the first outsiders to come to this snail, the people should be curious, especially those young people, so in these days, many young people took the initiative to talk to them behind the back of adults, hoping that they could talk about some things outside the snail. And Mr. Ba was young at the time, so he was among those young people.
To say that these two Taoist chiefs are really worthy of being heroes and heroes, Mr. Ba's two eyes flashed with reverence when he talked about this, and he said to the two of them, that line of madness is heroic and uninhibited, and the line of laughter is polite and polite, and the two told those young people a lot of interesting things about the outside world, and for a while, those young people all yearn for the outside world.
Listening to Mr. Ba talk about this, the teachers and students and Xiaobai also smiled, they can fully imagine the heroic posture of the two uncles a few decades ago, if you want to say a few of the previous generation of Dou Miguan, which one is not a good man who stands up to the sky?
But Shisheng thought about it and it seemed that something was wrong, to say that the two uncles had helped them, they should be grateful, why should they be hostile to outsiders in the future?
Sure enough, after Mr. Naba said this, a sad expression slowly appeared on his face, and he sighed, and then said: "However, it may be because we trusted and relied on the two Dao Masters too much at that time, so that that unpleasant incident happened later." β
"What's the matter?" Shisheng saw that the drama meat was finally here, so he hurriedly asked, "Didn't there be any misunderstanding later?"
Mr. Ba smiled bitterly, then picked up the teacup and took a sip, and then decided to tell the two of them: "Yes, the two Taoist masters lived here for fourteen days before leaving, but when they left, one of our national treasures suddenly appeared in the yamen. β
When Shisheng and Xiaobai heard the news, they were shocked, and Shisheng almost jumped up from his chair!
It turned out that more than 30 years ago, the river demons of Dongluo Country were troubled by the people, and Dongluo Country had no emperor since ancient times, so the big and small affairs were all handled by the four 'yamen', and the monsters made waves at that time, they couldn't stop it, so they had to have expectations for the legend, and sent a warrior out of the snail to find someone who could subdue the demon and subdue the demon.
This man's name was Babianye, and he was the bravest person in the Dongluo Kingdom at that time. But they knew that there was no reason to invite someone in vain, so they asked Naba Bianye to bring a national treasure from Dongluo Country as a gift money to move the rescuers.
To say that the national treasure of the East Snail Country is also five conchs, these five conch appeared from the water a hundred years ago, not gold and jade, the back is engraved with patterns, and it can emit light at night, and after the country went abroad, please go back to the two of them, and the two refused to accept the reward after helping to get rid of the demon, only saying that it is the duty of the Taoist to subdue the demon and eliminate the demon, if you accept the gift and reward, then it will not make the world laugh off the big teeth?
At that time, after the two of them said this, the people admired them even more, but who would have thought that as soon as the two of them left, they would lose one of the five national treasures. How can this be acceptable to them?
Although that national treasure is not an uncommon thing, the two of them are really unchivalrous in their approach to face to face and behind their backs, so there is a lot of discussion among the people, but they are not treacherous and cunning outsiders, and they all like to deceive people?
At that time, many of the younger generation of Dongluo Country heard all kinds of beautiful rumors about the outside world from the mouths of the two people, so they couldn't bear the yearning in their hearts, these people didn't believe that the two Taoist masters would lie to them, but there must be another reason for the loss of the national treasure, so they organized ten people to go out of the snail, on the one hand, looking for two people, and on the other hand, they wanted to see the outside world.
Nearly half a month later, they returned, but only seven of them, and brought with them sad news.
They didn't find the two of them, and the outside world was completely different from what the two Taoist masters said, and the person who came back cried to everyone, only saying that the people in the outside world were insidious and cunning, and it was like hell.
Since then, everyone has been hit, this is to dispel the idea of contact with the outside, it is also strange, since the loss of the national treasure, for three consecutive years in the Dongluo River fish harvest, some people say that this is precisely because of the national treasure is gone, although the people of Dongluo are kind and simple, but after this incident is inevitably hit, over time, the greedy and insidious character of the foreigners is more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Shisheng finally understood why the people looked at them in that way after entering the city, and in their eyes, they were no different from liars, and Mr. Naba said this, and the blue girl also smiled a little embarrassedly, and then said: "After I first met Brother Shisheng, I was also scared because of this, but then I now, they are all good people, and my sister gave me this, sir, do you think it looks good?"
After that, she took out a handkerchief and showed it to Mr. Naba, who touched her little head lovingly, and then said to the world: "It is because of this that the people are a little afraid of you." β
"No way. I saw Shisheng suddenly stand up and say, "Although I haven't seen that laughing uncle, I dare to use this head to guarantee that he is definitely not the kind of person who steals chickens and dogs!
Mr. Ba looked at Shisheng with complicated eyes, and after a long while, he said: "Actually, I also think so, how could the two Dao Masters be such heroes, how could they do such a thing? But after what happened, everyone no longer believed in them. β
"What is the relationship between that Babeno and Mr., and where is he now?" Shisheng suddenly asked.
And Mr. Bai smiled bitterly, and then said: "You should also hear it, that's right, this Ba Bianye is my brother, and he is also missing now, I don't know where he went." β
It turned out that after the disappearance of the national treasure, Naba Bianye lived a very depressed life every day, only saying that he felt that everything was because of his second phase, so one day he left a note, saying that he was going to go out to find the national treasure, so there was no news.
I don't know why, after Shisheng heard this, the dream he had the night before suddenly appeared in his mind, so he pouted, and Mr. Naba continued to sigh: "My brother is a dead brain, and now I don't know whether he is alive or dead, he was originally the next candidate for the head of the yamen, so everyone feels sorry for him, but only I understand that he must not believe that the national treasure was stolen by the two Taoist masters, so this decision was made." β
Hearing this, Shisheng was also a little sad in his heart, although he believed in the character of the two uncles who had never met, but those people's descriptions of the outside world were still accurate, indeed, there were many selfish and insidious people in the outside world, I was afraid that those ten people were unlucky and met them, so they would bring back such negative news.
But there are good people in the outside world, isn't it too one-sided to generalize?
No, I have to do something, Shisheng thought to himself. Xingxiao said that he was gracious, if their reputation was disgraced all the time, then where would anyone do good deeds in the future?
And what is needed to prove it?
Just as Shisheng was thinking about this, suddenly a rush of footsteps came from outside the courtyard, and it seemed that many people had come from outside the courtyard, Shisheng thought to himself.
Sure enough, I heard someone outside the courtyard shouting: "Mr. Ba! Mr. Ba is not good! Something is wrong, come out quickly!!"
Mr. Ba frowned, then motioned for the two to stop talking, and then walked out of the door, Shisheng felt that something was wrong, so he got up and put his ear to the door and eavesdropped carefully.
Mr. Naba walked out of the courtyard quickly, only to hear him ask, "What is the matter with the thinness that makes you so alarmed?"
"Something is wrong!" I only heard the voice say anxiously: "Listen to the brother of the Yamen, there is a big demon in the town in the north!"
"What kind of big demon? You talk slowly, what's going on?" Mr. Ba also seemed a little impatient, only to see him continue to ask, "How can there be a demon? Where did it come from?"
"Don't mention it!" the voice scolded: "Listen to them, it seems that a foreigner has broken in and brought a man-eating monster, and it seems that many people have been injured! Now the brothers of the yamen have gathered, and the people in the city have just told me that a little girl actually brought two foreigners into the city just now, and they seem to be coming towards your house, have you ever seen them?"
Their conversation made the people in the room listen to it very clearly, and the people in their hearts exclaimed, why are there outsiders here besides us, wait, isn't it Senior Brother Tunan?
He suddenly remembered the missing Chen Tu Nan, but he thought about it again, this is not right, how could Senior Brother Tu Nan bring the monster? What is going on?
Anyway, he had to go to that town to have a look, and now the top priority was how to get out, Shisheng knew in his heart that he was misunderstood by those people, if he went out at this time, it would inevitably be difficult to explain, the more things were explained, the more chaotic things were, it would only delay time, and if he started, the consequences would be even more unimaginable.
So, now it's up to Mr. Naba to judge.
Shisheng and Xiaobai didn't speak, and the air seemed to condense for a while............ Can he trust us, Mr. Ba?
And at that moment, Mr. Naba opened his mouth at the door and said, "Of course I have seen them. β
