Chapter XXVIII
(a)
In the courtyard, under a few ancient trees, there are blue-green fireflies everywhere. A group of women, dancing under the moon, smiling.
There are so many mortal women, if they were snatched back from outside by the bully Feng Xi, shouldn't they be sobbing and miserable at this moment.
Master called me softly, "Xian'er." ”
"Huh?" I looked up, meeting his radiant eyes.
He pointed in front of me and smiled, "Look." ”
I followed his finger and was surprised to find that the fireflies that had been flickering under the ancient trees had somehow flown in the air and were haunting me.
All around me, there was a shimmer of blue-green light. I stretched out my hand, and the sparkling fireflies were not afraid of me, and gently tapped my fingertips.
This group of people who tend to be inflammatory, must have smelled the immortal energy on me and Master. I said, "Master, even this thing knows how to take advantage of Master. ”
"It's not that it's cheap. Master stretched out his finger, but I saw the fireflies bypassing his fingertips.
I am very puzzled, it stands to reason that the immortal energy on the master's body is purer than mine, and his identity is also nobler than mine, so why don't the fireflies rush to him. These little things are really ignorant.
At this time, on the ground of the courtyard, the women looked at Master and me one after another.
Didn't they see Master and me? I was so shocked that I almost couldn't hold on to it, and my feet stumbled, but it was thanks to Master who grabbed me in time to prevent me from falling to the ground.
A woman on the ground rubbed another woman on the side, and said sweetly: "Sister, look, the fireflies have all flown to the sky." ”
I breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that the mortal woman was not looking at me and Master. Then I quickly waved my hand and said to Firefly, "Go back quickly." ”
I don't know if these things can understand the words of the gods. But they did fly back obediently.
Later, we also went around the other big mansions in the city, and it happened that we went to the bride's house where the bully was about to pass through. The bride's name is Cen Xiao, and it is a show outside Cen in the city.
I went into her room with Master. The candles in the room flickered, and the candles and tears filled the candlesticks. I wondered what this woman looked like.
Cen Xiaoxiu sat in front of the dressing mirror, and a beautiful face was reflected in the bronze mirror, and the color was a little pale. She touched her belly.
Her haggard look was probably a stomachache.
A maid pushed open the door, brought in a stack of red clothes, and smiled at Cen and said: "Xiu, today Jinxiuzhuang sent Xiu's wedding clothes, Xiu will try them on first, and if there is an inappropriate one, it will be sent to Jinxiuzhuang for cutting." ”
Cen Xiao waved his hand and said, "Let's let it go first." ”
She sat there for a long time. I didn't get up to try on clothes and didn't rest, and I didn't have the joy and excitement before the wedding.
Could it really be as said outside, that the bully Feng Xi was able to get Cen Xiaoxiu, and what extraordinary means did she really use to force her to marry him so reluctantly?
(b)
When Master and I returned to the inn, the door was closed. There is a light in the lobby, flickering and flickering, probably which guest has come to stay so that he can serve at any time.
After running a lot of places outside in one night, my head was so tired that I was dizzy. Without much thought, I went up and knocked on the door.
A pajamas-filled voice answered inside, "It's coming, it's coming." Then the sound of footsteps of varying degrees approached slowly, and it was the drunken inside who came to open the door.
But before the door opened, suddenly my waist tightened, and the master beside me stepped forward, grabbed me and flew straight to the second floor of the inn incognito.
At the door of the inn, the drunken probe looked out, and said suspiciously: "Huh, why is there no one?"
In the house, there was not a single light.
I pushed Master away in a panic, and the strength on my waist loosened. The place on the waist that the master will hold over, there is a faint pain.
When Master is close to me, and when I smell His breath, I can't help but think of Master approaching me and touching my face gently in the peach blossom forest, and I will remember that I had a dream, and Master told me how many reincarnations he had waited for me.
A lot of it, it's all involuntary. But for Master, there can't be an involuntarily. Master's cultivation grace for me does not allow me to blaspheme it with my thoughts.
I also know very well that those things that I don't have are all because I am Master's little apprentice and he loves me. In front of Master, I must not be pampered and arrogant.
Thinking about it like this, I gradually calmed down. In the future, I will not be able to regenerate the slightest thought of making trouble with the Master.
I said to Master in a proper manner, "Master, the disciple has offended Master for his sins, please punish Master." ”
"Don't get in the way, I will knock on the door, if I really let the guy open the door and see us return when it is almost dawn, I am afraid that it will be in vain to guess and doubt. Master sat down on the ground slowly sliding against the wall.
It's still the master who thinks thoughtfully. But now that the master is sitting on the ground casually, the ground is dirty and cold, why can't he think about it?
I wanted to help Master up, but I was afraid of offending Master again, so I hurriedly said, "Master go to rest on the couch, don't sit on the ground." ”
For a long time, Master didn't even say a word to me.
"Master?"
I squatted down in front of the Master and called several times in a row, but the Master did not answer me. I gently tugged at the corner of Master's sleeve, but Master didn't respond!
"Master, Master, wake up Master!" Isn't it that Master came back from the Endless Realm and was injured, and then he had a seizure?! I was so anxious that I panicked, and I reached out and touched Master's wrist while calling him.
I couldn't feel Master's pulse, so I grabbed his wrist and pressed his chair and said, "Master, wake up, don't scare me anymore!" I didn't want to see Master hurt in the slightest, and I didn't want to see Master silently weak in front of my eyes.
In that case, all the limbs, every corner of the body, will burn, and I can't suppress it.
A hand gently grabbed the hand that I was holding Master's wrist.
I was stunned and raised my head, but saw that the master had woken up and was looking at me with his eyes down, with a clear and shallow smile in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth were curled with a smile.
He said, "When will the strings take the pulse?"
I grabbed Master's wrist tightly, my heart was extremely sour, and said, "The apprentice won't, the apprentice can't catch the Master's pulse, so I'm afraid." The master is always so silent, how should the apprentice deal with it. ”
The master's eyes were stunned, and he faintly fainted, and said, "It's just a short rest for the teacher, and Xian'er is so anxious." ”
Urgent, of course I'm in a hurry. Since the last time I saw Master faint in front of me in Master's bedroom, as long as Master was silent for a moment, I would be terrified.
I stubbornly pulled Master up from the ground and said, "Master, please go to the bed to rest, the ground is cold, for fear of freezing Master." Master listened to my advice and went to lie down on the couch.
When Master had fallen asleep, I crept out of the room. But the house was too dark, and I accidentally tripped over a stool. Behind him, the master murmured, "Xian'er." ”
I paused, and said, "Hmm." ”
I waited for a long time, and when I saw that the master had no more words, I carefully closed the door from the outside and went to sleep next door.
(c)
Seeing that there are still three days before the marriage of the bully in the city, this is an abominable thing for outsiders, and it should be a happy event for the Feng family;
This morning, I went out on the street with Master, and I learned that there were billboards everywhere in the city, saying that the Feng family was looking for a famous doctor. The mortals in the city speculated one after another, could it be that the Fengxi bully was sick and dying?
I couldn't help but think of the group of women dancing in the courtyard when I went to Feng's house last night, and the sparkling fireflies. I don't know if the bully Feng Xi has suffered retribution or is really blessed.
Master and I are the only ones who are willing to make a list, and it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.
On the way back to the inn, I asked Master, "Why does Master want to help a mortal?"
The master said: "Because there is a ghost on the list, this matter is inseparable from the ghost who only has obsessions." It must have been to the Feng family. ”
This evil ghost wants to kill the bully? The evil ghost is evil, and the bully is also evil, since they are both evil, they don't know how to help each other, so they still have to pinch each other.
However, as I passed a stall on the side of the street, I stopped. It was a street selling calligraphy and paintings.
The stall owner is sorting out the pen and ink calligraphy and painting, and wants to collect the stall. It's just that this stall owner is a middle-aged scholar, I know. When he came down, the first book he listened to in the teahouse was what he was talking about.
It's about the love story of a scholar and Xiu, and in the end Xiu marries a bully. I was stunned, still feeling that something was wrong.
I looked at the scholar, his face was pale, his body was emaciated, especially his cheeks, he looked like he was skinny.
Seeing me standing in front of the stall, the scholar stopped what he was doing, looked up at me and the master, was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Does Gongzixiu want to buy calligraphy and paintings?"
I flipped through the paintings and calligraphy that I was flipping through at random, and most of them were very ordinary. It's not as good as the ink blot that my Kunlun Mountain master gave me to draw a rabbit, and if it is compared to the Danqing of the Emperor of Donghua that was hung in the master's study before, I don't know how many lifetimes of skill I have not had enough.
However, it is really not easy for mortals to draw such ordinary calligraphy and paintings. It's just that I don't like calligraphy and painting.
So I asked the scholar, "Do you have a book here that specializes in telling the story of the scholar's show?"
(iv)
The scholar glanced at me lightly, lowered his head and continued to clean up, and said, "No." ”
I asked again: "What about the story you told a few days ago about Zhang Xiu's final marriage to a bully, where did it come from?
The scholar paused, his face was not very good, and said, "Tell the story?"
I said, "Yes, didn't you talk in the teahouse a few days ago?"
The scholar lowered his face, looked at me again, and said, "If Xiu wants to find a storyteller, let's go to other places to find it." Du has studied the Four Books and Five Classics since he was a child, yearning for elegance and far-reaching, how could he go to such a complicated place, and how could he go to tell stories!"
I really don't like to hear what he says. As soon as I heard it, I knew that he was a pedantic poor scholar who had no knowledge.
Before I could say more, the master beside me said, "Brother Tai, don't blame, we have recognized the wrong person." ”
When the poor scholar heard what the master said, his face eased and said, "It's okay." ”
Without saying a word, Master pulled me away. But I really didn't recognize the wrong person, the poor scholar didn't know what to do.
I explained to Master, "Master, the apprentice really didn't recognize the wrong person, he was the one who was telling stories in the teahouse before. ”
The master said, "The master knows that you are not wrong. ”
I said indignantly, "Is it such a shame to tell me a book?" ”
"Scholars are familiar with the Four Books and the Five Classics, and have been practicing the way of honesty and nobility all their lives, so they are naturally reluctant to go to the market to talk about books. However, he said that he had not been there, but he could see that it was true. ”
Is the practice noble...... As a result, he set up a stall on the street. I don't know how noble the pedantic poor scholar is. But the scholar's expression, I also see something strange. Especially his body, the last time I saw him, it wasn't as jagged as it was.
I saw that the master turned his fingers, and his fingertips gathered a little brilliance, and gently flicked it to the scholar. Hua Guang burrowed into the scholar's body.
Although I was so far away, I suddenly felt the breath of the scholar. Master wants to leave traces on the scholar's body, so that we can find it at any time.
I only heard the master say again: "He has absorbed too much yang energy. ”
My heart twitched and I asked, "But the devil did it?"
The corners of Master's mouth raised slightly, and he walked forward with his hands in his hands, and said, "We'll know at night." ”
