Chapter 214 Encounter(1/2)
"If anyone knows where spring comes, call back and live together."
Xiao Hei has followed his brother for many years and learned a few disturbing poems. He murmured softly as he looked at the spring breeze that was gradually moving outside the carriage.
After resting in the yard of the old man outside the town for only twenty days, Xiao Hei used spiritual medicine and spiritual wine to sort out the treacherous bodies of the two old men, so that they could enjoy their old age.
Just like Li Xiuyuan was in Prince Village at the foot of the Great Wall, he used spiritual medicine to nourish two old men who lost their sons.
In the eyes of the old Taoist priest, he didn't say anything.
Only in this way can the heart show the compassion of a young man who is not a Buddhist disciple and who lives in Buddhism.
The young Taoist priest in the Taoist temple on Qingniu Mountain is named Wang Daoyi. With the help of Xiaohei Lingzi and Lingjiu, although he was unable to reach the realm of the Golden Elixir, he also stood above the ninth level of foundation building.
In the eyes of the old Taoist priest, it is enough to maintain one Taoist sacred place with such cultivation.
The old Taoist priest himself also took advantage of Xiao Hei's help to stand in the eighth level of divine distraction. The old man who originally thought that being able to break one level would be a miracle, but he unexpectedly broke through two levels of natural dangers in a row.
Let him see the legendary threshold.
In this regard, he had to accept Xiao Hei's courage. Knowing that the Northern Qi national teacher Gao Long came to warn him all over the world, he actually went to Tiger Mountain.
The spring rain is endless but cannot withstand Xiao Hei, who is eager to return home. He wants to quickly return to the imperial city of Northern Qi and complete his practice.
Taking the last ray of spring rain, Xiao Hei rented two carriages in the town, left a bag of gold coins for the old man, and took two carriages with the old Taoist priest, got on the official road and got into the fog.
The old lady cooked more than a dozen eggs for Qingyu, wiped her tears and said, "My girl is easy to go, I'm afraid you can't spend all the money you give me."
Qingyu felt soft and looked at the two old men and smiled: "Since you don't have enough money to spend, let your child go home from Xifen City."
After saying that, he got on the carriage and waved goodbye to the old man.
After listening to Xiao Hei's nagging, Qingyu leaned against the car window and smiled slightly: "I didn't expect that you can write poetry?"
Xiao Hei smiled and said, "How could I do these things? They were taught by my brother."
Qingyu smiled faintly: "It seems that I have to meet your legendary brother."
Xiao Hei sighed, thought for a while and replied, "Then you have to depend on luck." Not to mention Qingyu, Xiao Hei missed his brother a little.
The carriages in Northern Qi were generally small, and the three of them sat together too crowded, so Xiao Hei had to find two carriages.
Qingyu doesn't care. She chatted with Xiao Hei for an hour, and then got into the old Taoist priest's carriage and asked the master for advice on how to practice in the future.
Seeing that the three of them had already set off, Xiao Hei focused on the two little guys at home.
I don’t know if anyone will go to the 17th day of my departure, and I don’t know if the old shopkeeper can take good care of the daily life of two good guys.
After all, Qingqing has already practiced swordsmanship with the old man.
He planned to find a closer academy in the autumn and let Qingqing go to school to study.
It turned out that he planned to teach him himself, but when he was with Master, he thought it would be more appropriate to give her a husband.
The carriage ran on the official road for two days. Just as Xiao Hei was thinking about where to stay overnight today, the driver who drove the car told him that he had arrived in Jianzhou.
Xiao Hei, who had seen the map, knew that less than five days later, the imperial city of Northern Qi was Yecheng.
I didn’t expect that the spring flowers were not blooming when I went out, and it was early summer when I came back.
It was still early after entering the city. After finding the inn, Qingyu yelled that she was so sleepy that she got into the guest room and was about to dream.
The old Taoist priest saw that his disciple didn't want to go out, so he stayed quietly in the inn.
There was no choice but to ask the coachman to push him out. He wanted to go to the market and bring some local specialty snacks to the two little guys home.
This is something he had agreed with Qingqing and Yan'er before going out.
Leaving the inn, the coachman pushed Xiao Hei all the way east, walking on the road of Jianzhou City, and sighed in his heart as he watched the bustling people coming and going.
Before he knew it, he had been away from his brother for nearly five years.
It was hard to bring candied haws, so Xiao Hei bought a large bag of donkeys and rolled around, and visited several shops to buy various pastries. It was not until the coachman reminded him that these pastries should not be kept for too long, and then he stopped.
Then I bought a few new skirts for Qingqing, and even two pairs of embroidered Xiaoman boots.
Finally, I bought two rattles on the street, one for Qingqing and the other for Yan'er to play with.
The coachman pushed Xiao Hei and smiled, "I didn't expect that you have a younger sister in your family?"
Xiao Hei smiled faintly: "There are two little guys. I have to take some things back when I go out, otherwise they will have to argue with me."
Qingqing was fine. If she didn't buy delicious food for Yan'er, she would probably be woken up in the middle of the night.
The hawkers from the street vendors rang everywhere, and Xiao Hei looked at the scene in front of him and felt deeply moved.
It would be fine if I had just come by myself before, so I didn’t have to ask someone to push him out.
The coachman originally wanted to drive the carriage over, but Xiao Hei wanted to see the last spring scenery in Jianzhou, and also wanted to take a good look at the customs and customs of this area.
How can you see carefully when sitting in a carriage?
Five years are not long, but not short. Apart from no change, I guess my brother and sister Shuzi have changed a lot, let alone the little tiger he is looking forward to.
If I get my brother back Xiaohu, I have to let the guy push him to the streets of the imperial city for two days and buy a few strings of candied haws to reminisce about the situation back then.
"Brother, I want to eat candied haws!"
A tender voice came, but there was a red dress not far away. The girl about five years old was pulling her brother two years older than her. In her big eyes, Xiao Hei's most familiar expression was in her eyes.
That was a very longing look.
Xiao Hei's mouth moved, but he didn't say anything because he saw the girl's brother's embarrassment.
The boy's little hand gently reached into his pocket, and after a while, he took out two copper plates. This was the lunch money he had given to him for three days to go to school.
Seeing the longing expression in his sister's eyes, as his brother, he still gritted his teeth and took out the copper plate.
Xiao Hei sighed in his heart, as if the boy was his brother, and the girl was the greedy self back then. It seemed that when they were both penniless, the brother would find ways not to let him go hungry.
The brother took out a copper plate, bought a bunch of candied haws from the vendor on the street, and handed them to the sister behind him.
The girl did not reach out to pick it up, but said softly: "Brother, take a bite first."
It was not until the boy took a bite that the girl took the candied haws with satisfaction, squinted her eyes and smiled: "It's better for brother."
The boy bit the candied haws in his mouth, and then laughed in a daze.
Naturally, the girl would not think about whether her brother would have money to eat tomorrow and whether she would be hungry in school.
In her world, candied haws are delicious and the best thing to eat.
A faint smile appeared on the corner of Xiao Hei's mouth. There is love in the world, and love is nothing more than family affection in a string of candied haws, just like when he met his brother outside the inn when he was about to die.
Those are memories that belong to him, and the warm scene in front of him belongs to the brother and sister in front of him.
At this moment, a rapid sound of horse hooves sounded on the long street. The horse stepped on the bluestone slab, making a sound like a summer rain, which made Xiao Hei very displeased.
This is a bustling street, and such sounds should not appear.
A sound of horse hooves started, and the streets were suddenly in chaos, and for a moment they were in chaos. Even the vendors selling candied haws had to lean towards the street.
"The imperial city is urgent, and the idle people are waiting to dodge!"
Before the horse arrived, a roar had already been heard, and the pedestrians were terrified for a moment. Obviously, this was not the first time.
Xiao Hei sighed in his heart, thinking that even if the sky falls, he cannot disturb the people, let alone there is no war at the moment!
As he saw his eyes, two horses rolled up a whirlwind, shaved down the vendors selling along the street, and scraped the candied haws in the girl's hand under the horse's hooves.
The horse galloped away like the wind. The girl looked at the candied haws on the ground that were trampled into mud by the horse, and couldn't stop crying for a moment.
The little girl looked at the trampled candied haws on the ground and cried sadly. He knew that it was not easy for his brother to buy a bunch of money.
The boy's eyes were dim because he wouldn't have enough money for tomorrow.
Xiao Hei's expression instantly turned like the cold winter. Looking at the horse galloping away and the owner on the horse's back, he even remembered the appearance of the two of them.
"Man, come a few candied haws!"
Just as Xiao Hei was about to pay for the brother and sister to buy it, he heard a nice voice sound in front of him.
But he was a boy about the same age as Qingyu, and bought a few strings of candied haws from the street vendors.
After paying the money, he squatted in front of the girl and whispered: "Stop crying, brother, please eat the food gourd."
The little girl looked at the candied haws in the boy's hand with red eyes. She wanted to pick them up but didn't dare, and turned around and looked at her brother quietly.
The boy laughed, handed the boy a string, and said gently: "Is it okay to give my brother a face?"
The boy was stunned at first, then looked at Xiao Hei who was staring at him in front.
In his eyes, Xiao Hei was even more pitiful than him. His brother, who was not much older than him, was sitting in a wheelchair and was pushed away.
But he just has no money in front of him, so he will definitely be able to make money for his sister in the future.
After thinking about it, the boy looked up at the boy and asked, "Brother, can I ask for an extra string?"
Xiaonian was stunned and then gave the boy an extra string.
The boy first thanked the boy, then gave his sister a string, then squeezed two skewers of candied haws to Xiao Hei, and reached out to hand them over.
He said softly: "Brother, this is what that brother invites you to eat. My sister's favorite taste."
Xiao Hei's nose was sore, he reached out to take the candied haws and hugged the boy, whispering in his ear: "You are the best brother in this world, remember to study hard."
