Chapter 10 Not long to live(1/2)
Chapter 10 I won’t live long
Mianmian's palm was facing up, her big black eyes staring at the small gourd in her hand.
This little gourd was raised naturally and has a very special pattern that Mian Mian has never seen anywhere else.
Mianmian came closer and shouted softly: "Grandpa Calabash, Grandpa Calabash."
As soon as she finished speaking, a puff of white smoke came out of the little gourd's mouth, and then an equally small old man with a white beard appeared in front of Mianmian's eyes.
As soon as she saw her grandfather, Mianmian beamed instantly.
The old man touched his white beard and said with a smile: "Little Cotton, you look very happy?"
Mianmian nodded vigorously and couldn't wait to share her joy with her grandfather: "Grandpa Calabash, Mianmian has found her father. Daddy is very good to Mianmian."
"By the way, Mianmian also met her grandfather and several uncles, and they were all very kind to Mianmian."
"They also said they would not let Mianmian be bullied again."
Mianmian seemed to have opened up her chat box, chattering non-stop.
This little gourd was picked up by my mother in the palace and given to her to play with.
After her mother died, she accidentally discovered a Grandpa Calabash hidden in a small gourd. From then on, every time she encountered something, she would find a place where no one was around and quietly tell Grandpa Calabash.
In Fengning Palace, she could hardly find time to talk to Grandpa Calabash.
I was also afraid that if I took out the small gourd, grandma and the others would snatch it away.
Grandpa Calabash also told her to hide him well.
The old man just smiled and listened to Mianmian's words. At the end, he smiled very kindly: "I understand everything you said."
After finishing his words, the old man's smile paused again, as if he was hesitating: "It's just..."
"What's wrong?" Mianmian saw Grandpa Calabash showing such an expression for the first time, and her heart lifted involuntarily.
Grandpa Calabash sighed deeply, and after a short while, he said in a serious tone: "It's just a pity, your father won't live long."
Mianmian, who had just found her father, immediately turned pale when she heard this.
She asked with a trembling voice: "Why?"
Dad is so good, how could he not live long?
Thinking of this, Mianmian's eyes turned red.
"When I was in Fengning Palace just now, I felt it. He was covered in black aura. Someone had poisoned him, and it was so deep into his bones that no medicine or stone could cure him." The old man shook his head, with regret on his face.
"Besides, his killing was too serious, and his blessings will be gone."
Mianmian was so anxious that she almost cried.
She clenched her little hands urgently, and prayed in a crying voice: "Grandpa Calabash, since you know that daddy will not live long, you must have a way to save daddy, right? As long as you can save daddy, Mianmian will do anything."
willing."
It was Grandpa Calabash who saved her when she suffered from smallpox.
"Please, Grandpa Calabash, please save daddy..."
As he spoke, big tears fell down from Mianmian's cheeks.
She already lost her mother and could not lose her father again...
Mianmian cried so sadly that Grandpa looked very worried.
"If you want to save your father, you have to use your own blessings to minimize his bad consequences." The old man said solemnly.
But the way of heaven pays attention to cause and effect.
If you do an evil deed, you should repay it with a hundred times the good deeds, which is called merit.
He also relied on this to practice, because he admired Mianmian's pure and kind heart and formed a bond with Mianmian, which was more conducive to his practice.
In return, his gourd can contain gourd liquid that can cure all diseases, which saved Mianmian from smallpox.
It's just that all the gourd liquid accumulated in the gourd was used by Mianmian, so Mianmian needs to continue to accumulate it.
Mianmian didn't understand the cause and effect, she only knew that she could save her father, so she quickly asked: "What should Mianmian do?"
Grandpa Calabash knows how to talk about merits with Mianmian, but she doesn't understand.
So he said in a concise and understandable way: "I just want to do a lot of good things,"
After saying this, the old man reached out and pressed his eyebrows. His tone was a little tired. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a wisp of smoke and returned to the small gourd.
"Do a lot of good things?" Mianmian thought thoughtfully.
She put the small gourd into her sleeve.
Liu Fu, who was guarding outside the door, hurriedly turned around and bent down and asked, "What are your instructions, little grandma?"
"Eunuch Liu Fu, tell me, how can we do good things?" Mianmian blinked and asked confusedly.
She wants to do a lot of good things as soon as possible so that she can save her father.
Liu Fu was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting Mianmian to ask such a question.
When it comes to doing evil things, they are very good at it.
Liu Fuk was just thinking about how to answer when he heard the scream of a palace servant.
"I was wrong, I will never dare to do it again!"
Xiao Xiazi raised her foot and kicked it, "I've blinded your dog's eyes. This was the stew that Chitose specially made for my little grandma, but you, a frivolous waste, smashed it into pieces."
Xiaoxiazi kicked her twice more in frustration.
The palace man lay on the ground, trembling and begging for mercy.
The consequences of breaking the master's food in the palace can be serious or small, ranging from being reprimanded to fearing for one's life.
With a thought in her mind, Mianmian raised her head and asked Liu Fu, "If I save him, will it be considered a good deed?"
Liu Fu replied hesitantly, "Forget it."
To the little grandma, it's just a matter of words, but to people outside, it's really a matter of life and death.
Mianmian ran out happily, she could do good deeds, and if she did good deeds, she could save her father.
Liu Fu hurriedly chased after her, "Grandma, please slow down."
When Xiao Xiazi saw the little grandma, her attitude immediately changed completely, "Why is the little grandma here?"
"Xiaoxiazi, can you let him go?"
Xiao Xiazi looked at her godfather inquiringly.
Liu Fu didn't understand why the little grandma was obsessed with doing good deeds, but it was enough to make the little grandma happy, so he nodded to Xiao Xiazi.
Xiao Xiazi said with a smile: "My little grandma's words are more effective than the imperial edict. If my little grandma wants to let his slave go, let him go."
Xiao Xiazi turned around and kicked him with her toes, "You are lucky today. You have a little grandma interceding for you. Why don't you thank grandma quickly?"
"Thank you, little grandma, thank you, little grandma, little grandma is really a living Bodhisattva."
The palace man thought that he would definitely die, and even if he survived, he would be beaten half to death. Unexpectedly, he survived. He bowed deeply to Mianmian, and this bow contained all sincerity and endless gratitude.
A pure white star flew out.
Mianmian watched helplessly as the star sank into the gourd.
Eyes widened: Is this a blessing?
Mianmian seems to have opened the door to a new century. It turns out that doing good deeds is so simple, so can she do a lot of good deeds?
Mianmian's eyes were bright and she was holding the gourd in her hand without saying anything.
Liu Fu and Xiao Xiazi looked at the firelight and saw the light in the little grandma's eyes, as bright as the morning star in the sky. They were both in a trance and remained silent.
Mianmian raised her head happily, "Have you seen it?"
Liu Fu recovered slightly and asked with a smile, "What is it?"
Huh?
Is it possible that only Mianmian can see it?
Is it the same as Grandpa Beard, only Mianmian can see it?
Liu Fu watched the little grandma change from excitement to confusion without speaking.
"Eunuch Liu Fu, where can I save people? Can you take me to save more people?"
Liu Fu said with a smile, "Little grandma, why do you want to save people?"
Mianmian was struggling, Grandpa Huzi had told him not to tell others about her father's poisoning.
Liu Fu realized that he had said something wrong and hurriedly said: "It's not easy for little grandma to save people. I will take you there right now."
Mianmian was very happy, and then looked at him with a pair of twinkling eyes.
Liu Fu couldn't help but smile knowingly, "Go now?"
