Chapter Eighty-Eight: Ding Hao's Talent
It's better to act than to be excited, and the little fat man immediately took Ding Hao to meet the prefect. When the prefect saw the little fat man coming, he was also very surprised why he came during the holidays. When the prefect knew the intention of the little fat man, he examined Ding Hao up and down. Although I didn't see anything special about this little man, he was a disciple from the first village in the world, and he had made many miraculous achievements recently, and he had been recommended by the little fat man, who he regarded as the most powerful assistant. If you don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, you can't say anything to brush the face of the little fat man. It's a big deal to be a full person, there is a little fat man, and the day of his own power will not be long. Thinking of this, the prefect agreed to the little fat man in one bite, and promised the little fat man that Ding Hao would come over tomorrow.
The little fat man listened to the words of the prefect, and his heart fell to the ground like a stone. After thanking the prefect, he took Ding Hao out of the yamen.
Walking on the road, the little fat man was very curious about Ding Hao picking up his Qiushui Yanling knife, and asked: "Xiao Ding, as far as I know, the cliff in Vulture Mountain is bottomless. Even some old hunters who climb mountains all year round don't dare to climb easily, how did you pick up my knife?"
Ding Hao smiled and said, "Brother Zhu, you don't know anything. Don't look at me because I'm small, but I have a special skill that no one else has. It was as if I had a sucker on my body, and I was climbing the cliff as if I were walking on flat ground. ”
When the little fat man heard Ding Hao say this, his face showed an unbelievable look, he looked Ding Hao up and down again, and looked Ding Hao a little embarrassed. If it weren't for the little fat man's righteous face, maybe he would wonder if he was from the back mountain.
"Brother, do you really have this ability?" the little fat man asked, and listening to his tone, he didn't seem to believe it yet.
Ding Hao nodded, and in order to prove that his words were true, he said, "Brother Zhu, if you don't believe it, I can give you a live performance." ”
These words are entering the little fat man's heart, and he also wants to see if Ding Hao is a man with a suction cup as he said. So, the little fat man took Ding Hao to a wall where there were fewer pedestrians. Standing here, there was no one in sight, only a few steps away, a few willow trees, rustling in the wind.
I saw Ding Hao standing under the high wall and glanced up. This is a large family manor in the city, with a vermilion high wall, about two feet high. Ordinary large households are only about one zhang and five zhang, and this family deliberately increased their height in order to show their strong family assets. It is precisely because of this that the little fat man chose this place as an environment to test Ding Hao's climbing ability.
Ding Hao took a deep breath and spread his right hand. Slowly place it on the wall. Then, spread your left hand into a claw shape and place it on the wall. Then, the little fat man saw that Ding Hao raised his right leg and pressed it flat against the wall. Next, I saw Ding Haoyun take a breath and slowly lift the left leg on the ground. At this moment, Ding Hao's body was completely suspended.
The next scene surprised the little fat man even more. I saw Ding Hao alternating his limbs, slowly crawling upward, and his body was agile like a magnified gecko. The wall is more than two feet high, and it took a few breaths to climb to the top of the wall. It may be that Ding Hao's figure made the wolf dog inside see it, and there was a rapid barking sound from inside. Ding Hao was afraid of being discovered, so he hurriedly slipped down.
After Ding Hao climbed down from the wall, his face was not red or panting, as if he was walking on the ground, looking leisurely. The little fat man was envious, he just wanted to lie on the ground, hugging Ding Hao's thigh and begging: "God, let's be friends!"
The little fat man looked excited, as if he had picked up a treasure, and said to Ding Hao: "Let's go, brother, let's go and talk in the shade over there." After speaking, he couldn't help but say, the little fat man pulled Ding Hao under the willow tree not far away.
"Brother, doesn't anyone see this talent of yours and ask you to do things?" the little fat man asked Ding Hao.
Ding Hao was stunned and said: "I have never mentioned my talent to anyone, sometimes my family is poor, I will climb the cliff and pick some herbs for money to maintain the family." ”
The little fat man suddenly realized, and then he understood why Ding Hao was at the bottom of the cliff yesterday. This may be destined in the dark, destined for the little fat man to meet this talented friend.
The little fat man patted Ding Hao's shoulder and said in an old-fashioned manner: "Brother, follow me and do a good job." After a year and a half, brother, I will help you marry a daughter-in-law. ”
When the little fat man said this, he was not afraid of flashing his teeth. He is an old man himself, and he dares to promise to find a daughter-in-law for others.
Ding Hao listened to the little fat man's words, his face turned red all of a sudden, he looked a little embarrassed, and whispered: "Actually, I have someone I like." ”
"What?" This time it was the little fat man's turn to be surprised, since he had someone he liked, how could his parents worry that he couldn't find a daughter-in-law and ask Lao Li to find him a job.
After the little fat man expressed the doubts in his heart, Ding Hao told the little fat man the ins and outs of the matter. It turned out that Ding Hao had a girl next door who grew up together, surnamed Su Yinyin. The two grew up together, and they can be described as childhood sweethearts, and the two have no guesses. These two have also been in love for a long time, and the two grew up slowly, and seeing that they were about to reach the age of male marriage and female marriage, Ding Hao begged his father and mother to find a matchmaker to go to the Su family to propose marriage. The second elder of the Ding family also watched Su Yinyin, a girl, grow up, and knew that she was well-behaved and sensible, and he liked her very much. So, the old couple found a matchmaker and went to Su's house to say goodbye to their son. It was a very good thing, but who knows, when the matchmaker went to the Su family to propose marriage with Ding Hao's birthday, he was rejected by Su Yinyin's father. The matchmaker asked him the reason, and the reason given by Daddy Su was ridiculous, but he was helpless. It turned out that Ding Hao belonged to the ox in the year of Yichou, while Su Yinyin belonged to the tiger in the year of Bingyin. Father Su is a very superstitious person, he believes that the ox people are stubborn, can't listen to other people's opinions and suggestions, and insists on going their own way. And the tiger people are more domineering, and they like to be self-respecting in everything. If the ox and the tiger get married, they must not have a common language, and they will definitely fight because of some trivial things. For the sake of a woman's lifelong happiness, he rejected the Ding family's proposal.
After listening to Ding Hao's words, the little fat man was also at a loss, and he could only express sympathy for Ding Hao's fate. After all, Daddy Su is also thinking about a woman's lifelong happiness. Yes, seeing two sentient beings/people, but unable to live happily together, the little fat man's heart is also full of pain.
"Hahaha......" A burst of unbridled laughter broke the little fat man's thoughts, how could he hear the laughter when he saw no one around just now, and this laughter seemed to be very close.
"Who is it?" the little fat man shouted, and looked around, but saw no figure. Could it be that you have met a ghost? The little fat man thought, and a chill rose from the bottom of his heart.
"Where are you looking, young man?" the voice came again, and this time the little fat man was quite clear, it was from the top of his head.
The little fat man looked up and saw a person lying across the treetops more than a foot high. This person was wearing a green robe, holding a wine gourd in his hand, and was looking at them with playful eyes.
When the little fat man saw this man, he was overjoyed. The one lying on the tree was none other than the little fat man's long-term search, but found nothing. I didn't expect to see him here, this is really: I have the intention to plant flowers and flowers, and I have no intention of planting willows and willows! I think it was because the weather was too hot, and the head of the Liuyun Road climbed to the tree to enjoy the coolness. Seeing the leisurely and leisurely look of the head of Liuyun Dao, the little fat man was envious.
"Hello, Dao Chief!" the little fat man greeted under the tree.
Liuyun Daoist didn't answer, only to see him jump slightly, like a dexterous swallow, and landed lightly in front of the little fat man.
"What a fart! My old man is sleeping beautifully, I don't want to, I was woken up from my sleep by you two little rabbit cubs!" Obviously, he was joking with them.
"Hey, hey. The little fat man laughed dryly twice and then asked, "Why did the Taoist master laugh just now?"
Daoist Liuyun smiled slightly and said, "I listened to this kid's words, and I felt funny in my heart, so I laughed. ”
The kid in the mouth of the head of Liuyun Dao naturally refers to Ding Hao. Then the reason why he laughed is what Ding Hao said about Su Yinyin.
The little fat man's heart moved, and he asked, "Could it be that Dao Elder has a solution?"
Liuyun Dao Chang touched the mustache on his chin, looked unfathomable, and said slowly: "Piece of cake." ”
As soon as he heard that Daoist Liuyun had a solution, Ding Hao was so excited that he almost cried, and hurriedly asked, "Uncle Daoist, may I ask, how to resolve it?"
Daoist Liuyun's title of "Daoist Uncle" to Ding Hao was obviously the first time he had heard of it in his life, and a smile appeared on his face, and he said: "This is easy to do, as the saying goes: the law is not Xuan." That is to say, those birthdates in the world, as well as face and palmistry, etc., have no effect on the authentic people of Xuanmen. ”
"Xuanmen Authenticity?" Ding Hao was stunned for a moment, obviously he had never heard of this kind of sect before, and said to himself: "But, where should I go to find Xuanmen Authenticity?"
As soon as Ding Hao's words fell, he felt that someone had kicked on the crook of his leg, and one stood unsteadily and fell to the ground. Ding Hao looked back and saw that the little fat man had just landed his feet on the ground. Obviously, he kicked the kick just now.
Ding Hao looked puzzled, he didn't know why the little fat man kicked himself, and before he could ask anyone, he heard the little fat man say: "Silly brother, don't kowtow to the teacher!"
Ding Hao listened to the little fat man's words, and after a little thought, he already understood that the Taoist in front of him should be an authentic person from Xuanmen.
"Boy Ding Hao, beg the Taoist to accept me as an apprentice. As he spoke, Ding Hao jumped and kowtowed to Liuyun Dao Chang three times.
