Although the mountain people were shocked and discussing, no one could have imagined that the gods they suspected last night, except the evil god, were now on another mountaintop across the distance, enjoying a pot of delicious food with Tong'er.

It is a delicacy that does not belong to this era.

"Taoist! You lied!"

"Um?"

"You lied!"

"when?"

"yesterday!"

"What time was it yesterday?"

"You and those who offered incense! You lied!"

The little girl was holding a piece of chicken in both hands, but it was the piece with the crutches. It was a big rooster born and raised in the country for several years. This piece of chicken was strong and strong. She grabbed the crutches with both hands and pulled it forward, biting it with her teeth.

Pulling in the opposite direction, it took a lot of effort. When the crutches were broken, the whole upper body of the person leaned back violently, and his head shook for a while:

"Empress Sanhua heard it!"

"When Sanhua Empress speaks, she must swallow everything in her mouth before speaking."

"oh……"

Sanhua Empress is a good follower and does what she is told honestly.

It's just that the ribs are tough and hard and elastic when chewed. Fortunately, it is not simply laborious and tasteless. Instead, it tastes full of the aroma of local chicken meat. As long as your teeth are good, the more you chew, the more delicious it becomes.

Sanhua Empress is not a wasteful cat either.

So he spent a lot of time chewing it up, swallowing it in one gulp, and then continued to look up at the Taoist and said:

"Empress Sanhua heard it!"

"It can't be transferred..."

Song You shook his head helplessly and sighed, but he was not in a hurry and asked: "It was a temporary measure with good intentions, how can it be called lying?"

"Well?"

"It's like Sanhua Empress." Song You put down his chopsticks and said slowly, "When I was eating, I heard Sanhua Empress bragging about the scene of her outsmarting the mountain god in the temple. It was very charming, but in the process, Sanhua Empress

Didn’t Hua Empress also say a few harmless and untrue words?”

"Blow up?"

"that's not important……"

"Harmless untrue words..."

The little girl repeated, staring at him seriously.

"Exactly."

Song You admitted without any psychological burden, and then continued: "Can this also be called lying? Does this make Sanhua Empress a lying and dishonest cat?"

"Meow?"

"Of course not. It's just a method that Sanhua Empress usually uses to catch mice. Last night she was just to get rid of harm for the people and kill the evil gods. But in normal interactions with others, Sanhua Empress doesn't know how to use it.

These methods." Song You said to her, "So Sanhua Empress remains honest, and so do I."

"!"

The little girl suddenly opened her eyes wide again.

What an amazing Taoist priest! He explained such a complicated truth in one go!

Empress Sanhua held the chicken bones and was shocked.

"I'm stuffed……"

Song You put down the bowl and stood up, wiped his mouth, looked down at the half-eaten big pot, thought for a while and said: "Sanhua Empress, please put the pot here after you finish eating. You can have another meal at noon."

, wash it after eating, and then take it down the mountain and return it to its original owner. I didn’t sleep last night and I’m a little sleepy. Let’s get some sleep first.”

"OK!"

The top of the mountain is quiet and deserted, the wind is gentle and the clouds are light.

Song You took out the blanket from his quilt bag and spread it on the ground. He didn't need a blanket, so he lay down on it, using his arms as a pillow, and his eyes were filled with the sky.

The sky is always beautiful.

The white clouds are like smoke, faintly blue, and the blue sky seems to have no bottom and cannot be looked directly at. If you keep staring at it, you will feel that it is like a bottomless abyss, with a fatal attraction, and your eyes are

No matter how long we travel, we will never reach the end, so while we feel vast, we also feel our own insignificance, which inevitably leads to fear and palpitations.

Fortunately, this is harmless.

Song You liked to look at the sky very much.

"Suddenly..."

Swallows flew across the sky lightly.

The little girl next to me seemed to have finished eating, and she could be heard clearing away the dishes.

Song You stared at the sky for a while. When the sounds around him calmed down and he turned his head to look, he saw Empress Sanhua squatting alone in front of a clump of withered stipa grass. Her small body huddled up and became smaller than the clump.

The stipa grass was not much taller, but without saying a word, she really used the stipa grass threads as hair and was conscientiously braiding them into braids.

Knowing that Song You was sleeping and resting, she entertained herself.

Song You ignored her, put his head back, stopped looking at the sky, casually reached out and grabbed two grass leaves, covered his eyes, and fell asleep.

Maybe this is also a kind of magical day.

…

When he opened his eyes again, it was already mid-afternoon.

At this time, on the top of the mountain, which was one or two feet square, except for the Stipa that was pressed under the felt and used as a pillow, all the Stipa that could be seen had been braided, but there was no sign of the girl.

"..."

Song You sat up and climbed up again, and walked to the edge of the earth bag at the top of the mountain. Sure enough, he saw that the stipa grass on the slope was also braided, so he walked around the edge of the earth bag. After only walking half a circle, he found himself in the braid.

At the dividing line with the original Stipa, I saw a little girl sitting with her legs sideways and huddled in a ball - she was braiding the hair of a new Stipa plant, seriously, as if she was tireless.

"Miss Sanhua." Song You shouted.

"Hmm! Taoist priest, are you awake?" The little girl immediately raised her head and looked at him expressionlessly.

"What is Sanhua Empress doing?"

"Miss Sanhua is braiding their hair!" The little girl's face was still expressionless and fair, but she answered quickly and honestly.

"Why didn't Sanhua Empress sleep?"

"Because we still have half of the chicken we cooked. There are too many thieves on the mountain. I'm afraid they will steal our meat while we are sleeping." After the little girl finished speaking, she lowered her head and saw that half a day had passed.

Her proficiency in braiding skills has increased a lot, and the movements of her hands have not stopped at all. She only glanced at this, then raised her head and continued to stare at the Taoist priest, "Besides, Empress Sanhua looks at you like

She likes braiding Sanhua’s hair very much, so she also plays with it herself.”

"Is it fun?"

"have no idea……"

"Isn't Sanhua Empress sleepy?"

"Ms. Sanhua can sleep on the horse's back later."

"Thanks for your hard work……"

Song You shook his head and sighed.

It's not good for a cat to be too sensible.

Then he rekindled the fire and added a little more water to the pot to dilute the salty taste of the long-cooked turkey. After he heated up the remaining half of the pot of firewood turkey, all the withered or semi-yellow turkey on the top of the hill was covered.

Stipa also already has its own hairstyle.

Thanks to this big red rooster, one person and one cat had a delicious meal again.

Then Song You used some words to persuade Sanhua Empress to give up her thoughts of washing pots and dishes, and made her turn into a cat and go back to sleep in the swaddling clothes on horseback. She took the pots and bowls down the mountain to find the spring,

I washed the dishes and chopsticks and put them into my quilt bag, washed the iron pot, and replenished the drinking water. I also took out the face wash handkerchief and toothpaste chips, and took advantage of the cool mountain spring to tidy up my personal hygiene.

"Taoist priest~"

The calico cat poked its head out of the sash and stared at him in confusion: "Where are we going?"

"Going further, we will reach Yangzhou."

"Yangzhou?"

"Yes."

"The fox is in Yangzhou?"
