When Jing Shi said this, he sealed the paper and pen in the tube and put them all in his arms. Gu'erwan looked up at him and said, "Xin Guan'er, you have those gravels and this little bamboo pen in your arms. How many things have you put there? Could it be that there is a treasure bag hidden inside?" He said with a slight smile on his feet. Standing on tiptoe, eager to try, he wanted to jump on Jingshi.
Jing Shi also took two steps back to prevent him from making a sudden attack: "There is no treasure bag, just some light things." After saying that, he took out a few small things from the secret pocket in his arms, which were nothing more than kerchiefs, fire folds, and bamboo pens. There was also the broken jade wrapped in the handkerchief, which was immediately put back into his arms. Who knew that Gu'erwan's eyes were treacherous, and he suddenly pulled at the hem of his clothes and said, "Wait a minute, there is one more thing." Then he pointed at his neck and said, "There is one more thing here, what a treasure it is."
Jing Shi looked down and realized that he had taken out a piece of white ribbon from his neck. He immediately stuffed it back under his clothes and said, "It's just a jewelry."
Gu'erwan said: "Since it is your personal accessory, don't you know it is a treasure for me to take a look at."
Jing Shi turned a deaf ear and leaned over to pick up the bamboo tube containing the drawings and put it into his luggage. He wiped his face and combed his hair with the lake water he had stored the day before, and then walked towards Dongquan Village. Gu'er Bowl has a monkey temperament. The more he doesn't let him see it, the more he becomes itchy and unbearable. On the way, he picks and rubs against the thorn stones and asks questions in every possible way. He has to take out the thing on his neck to have a look. Seeing that he couldn't succeed, he suddenly jumped up, put his arms around Jing Shi's neck, hung it on his back and said, "Let me have a look, let me have a look, and I won't steal it from you."
Jing Shi had been swooping at him like this several times before, and although he still felt heavy, he was finally getting used to it. No matter how much Hu Hun was pestered by Gu'er's bowl, or even when he was itching and breathing, it was all like a stone sinking into the sea, without any response. Only when Gu'erwan quietly picked up the rope around his neck did he reach out and pat the furry claws away. They went back and forth like this several times. Even though Jing Shi was not afraid of his teasing, he still had trouble walking. He had no choice but to grab Gu'erwan's arm and say, "Don't be ridiculous."
The bone bowl was hung behind his back and he said: "I'm not messing around. New official, if you don't want to show me the treasure, then tell me about your childhood. Just now you said you were in trouble, what happened? "
Jing Shi didn't want to talk about it at first, but because Gu'erwan repeatedly grabbed his collar and was really pestering him, he just said, "Come down and walk, and I'll talk to you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu'erwan immediately slipped down, took out the wooden stick from his back, and walked in front of him. A pair of eyes were looking forward to Jingshi, but they were waiting for him to uncover the details. Seeing him like this, Jing Shi couldn't argue with him. He thought about it and said: "On the land south of the Middle Earth, there are three princely states standing side by side, namely Lulan, Lehua, and Feixun. Twelve years ago, Lulan The third princess of the country was suffering from a terminal illness. The king invited famous doctors from the south and visited hermits in the mountains, but they all said that it was incurable. However, the third princess came up with a plan and cured the disease. Guess what method she used?"
Gu'er Wan was listening carefully, his eyes widened and he said: "I heard old lady Shui Hua say that you mainlanders are weak and will get sick all your life, and you have a lot of flowers. How could you guess that you mainlanders are sick and you can get sick?" Take the medicine"
Jing Shi responded: "Yes, since she is sick, it is natural to give a cure. But the medicine used by the third princess is not Caozhi plaster, but the heart of a ten-year-old child."
Gu'erwan was naturally shocked when he heard what he said. He opened his mouth and stuck out his tongue, stared blankly at the Jingshi, and almost hit the tree. Jing Shi helped him by the shoulders, walked around the tree, and said, "Be careful when you walk."
Gu'er Bowl lowered his head and jumped a few steps away, and said calmly: "Xin Guan'er, how can a child's heart be cured? You mainlanders are all taking medicine like this when they are sick?"
Ever since Jing Shi got acquainted with Gu'er Wan, he had often seen him acting out and acting without any taboos. He didn't expect that his words at this moment would actually make this golden retriever look worried, and he was also a little surprised in his heart. But seeing that Gu'er Bowl was really scared, he smiled and said, "No. When people on land get sick, they just pick some herbs and earthly treasures to treat them just like you. If you can cure diseases by eating human internal organs, then how difficult it is in the world." The third princess of Lulan Kingdom was able to do this because she was not an extraordinary child, but a shaman who had learned spiritual arts. She wanted to use human blood sacrifice, but she was afraid that the monks in the Celestial Master Temple of Lulan Kingdom would notice. , they secretly sent their cronies, disguised as bandits and ferocious beasts, to massacre border residents and rob children. I was just eight years old at the time, my adoptive father had died, and I lived on the border of neighboring Lulan, relying on the help of my neighbors for a living. That day Her cronies broke into the countryside and massacred the villagers. They took only the children under ten years old to the capital of Lulan and hid them in the Qingxian Terrace. I lived in Taichung for several months and saw the older children going out one by one, saying They were sent to good families for placement, and never came back. Naturally, I became suspicious, so I deliberately reported my age and inquired about the information, only to find out that they were all sent to the third princess. I saw the villagers being slaughtered with my own eyes, and I expected that those children who went out would also There will be no luck, so I delay in every possible way and wait for the opportunity day by day."
Gu'er Wan said: "Since the new officer is here now, he must be the last to escape."
Jing Shi shook his head and said: "No. At that time, the people guarding the platform were not only ordinary soldiers, but also several corpse puppets. I didn't know what they were at the time, but I helped a man dig the ground to escape. As soon as he reached the courtyard wall, he was killed by the corpse puppets. I found out and flew to kill him. Not to mention that I was young and weak that day. Even if I met him again now, I might not be able to escape. Since I knew that I couldn't escape, I made arrangements with the other children and tried to collect wooden and stone knives. , wanted to take the opportunity to assassinate the third princess. Unexpectedly, we were taken out of the invitation platform just after the completion of the matter. The invitation platform on land was originally used to welcome monks from Qingdu. If there are no prayers on weekdays, it will inevitably be empty and deserted. Therefore, the three The princess hid the sacrifice in Taichung. But that day, a monk from the South China Sea suddenly arrived. He said he had noticed the activities of monsters and beasts in the land, slaughtered the border people, and wanted to inquire with the clans of various countries. The person who came at that time was a very senior monk. According to the etiquette on land, we should rest at Sendai to meet the king, so we had to be taken away. I didn’t know what happened at that time, but when I saw that several corpses had gone, and only the mortal soldiers were left to escort us out, I guessed that this was what happened. It was all due to fate. If I had left the Immortal Platform at that time, I would have been killed later. So I pretended to be asleep after taking medicine, and launched an attack on the way. I first blinded a soldier with a wooden thorn, then overturned the candle and lit the wooden tower spiritual flag. The monk turned out to be me. Alarmed, he rescued us from the sergeant’s knife.”
After he finished speaking, he walked straight ahead, his expression as calm as usual. For the first time, Gu'erwan didn't make any noise. He followed quietly for a long time and then said, "Xin Guan'er, I never thought you would suffer so much when you were a child."
Jing Shi replied: "I haven't seen any suffering. Since the three princesses need living sacrifices, they will not starve to death. The food and clothing provided in Taichung is sufficient, which is far better than the suffering of being homeless in the famine years."
Gu'erwan was born in Juhui since he was a child. He didn't know what it was like to be a refugee in the lean years. He seemed to understand what he heard, but scratched his head and said: "When I was talking to the old official when I was a child, I often heard him talking about ghosts, strange things, and spooky things. It's so scary. I asked him if it was true or not, but he refused to explain it clearly to me. New officer, I think you are more decent than that old man, and you are not talking nonsense. I heard you say such things, but at night Can't sleep."
Jing Shi said: "I have experienced it myself, so I won't lie to you. But I was still young at the time, so I didn't know many details. I mostly reflected on it afterwards and speculated to make up for the omissions, which may not be fully accurate."
After hearing this, Gu'erwan put the wooden stick on his shoulder and said dullly: "The third princess is a bad person, what will happen next?"
Jing Shi said: "Since she was captured by the Nanhai monks, she was naturally executed. When she died, she cut her neck off with an iron fan, cutting off her head and body. It was extremely cruel. If you have evil intentions in the future, you want to peek at my neck. Maybe she has a spirit after death and turns into a ghost to seek your revenge."
Gu'er made a sound with his bowl, jumped to his feet and said: "Nonsense, I don't believe the decapitated female ghost. Since she could be caught by that Lao Shizi monk, it's not that big of a deal. If you dare to come to my door, I'll pick it up." With the stick, beat her till she peeed."
Jing Shi didn't argue when he heard what he said, he just watched him laugh. There was a fuss in the bone bowl for a while, but in the end it was boring to sing alone, and not willing to be underestimated, he poked Jingshi with the head of his stick and said: "Xin Guan'er, you said that the monk could kill the female ghost, although he may not be as powerful as me, think about it." He also has some abilities. Can you tell me what those monks are capable of?"
Jing Shi responded and said casually: "There is no great power. The monk is a woman. She likes to wear red clothes and wear them loosely. She looks like she is in her early sixteenth year. She pays no attention to adults and only talks a few words to children. She seems to be good at making fire, flying in the clouds, and riding in the mist. In addition, she has a jade sword that can create thousands of clones."
Hearing this, Gu'erwan couldn't help but be speechless. He still refused to admit defeat and said to himself: "These things are not very unusual. If I bump into him, I only need to hit him with a stick and it will be safe." Tell her to flee on the clouds." Before he could finish what he said, seeing Jing Shi's face smiling, he finally became angry and jumped onto Jing Shi's back, hugged Jing Shi's neck and said, "You are smiling so much that you are smiling so much. I'm not allowed to laugh because you've underestimated me." Jing Shi was entangled so hard that he finally had a straight face and solemnly said: "You are invincible with the stick, you are much stronger than her." Just then he was freed from the bondage.
