Tang Ying was startled. After thinking about it carefully, he realized that Xiao Naibao made sense. If he asked his second brother to sit down and read for an hour, he would definitely not be able to sit still.
"But my mother said that I have never been able to compare with the eldest brother and the second brother," Tang Ying was a little depressed.
The little girl was puzzled: "Why do you need to compare yourself with others?"
Tang Ying:......
"My mother has always asked me to learn from my eldest and second brothers and let me surpass them," Tang Ying was a little unhappy when it came to this matter.
Xiao Naibao: "But everyone is different. You all have advantages and disadvantages. Why do you have to surpass the eldest brother and the second brother?"
Tang Ying shook his head: "I don't know either."
He likes to read but not to exercise. He can learn from his eldest brother, but the second brother has always been lively and cheerful and loves sports. He feels that he can't do it.
When he said he couldn't do it, his mother always said he was useless.
Tang Ying did not say these words. He felt that it was not good to complain about his mother to others.
"I think you have surpassed the eldest and second brothers in terms of reading time," the little girl told him, "very impressive."
Tang Ying smiled sheepishly, "Thank you."
He likes to stay here very much. His sister will praise him here, and several other Taoist priests will also praise him. It's not like at home, where his mother always says that this is not good and that is not good.
Xiao Naibao and Tang Ying posted their books for about a week.
One night a week later.
The moon and stars are sparse.
The ancient books on the windowsill gave off a faint light.
The sleeping little girl seemed to feel something, and opened her eyes drowsily, and then she saw the translucent old man floating in front of the window sill of her room.
The old man has kind eyebrows and kind eyes. He is wearing a wide-sleeved robe. He looks fairy-like, with a silver-white halo exuding around him.
Although the old man does not look evil, anyone who sees such a person in front of the window at night will be frightened, including the little nanny who has seen many ghosts.
Little milk bag:......
She stayed there for a while, and then she stretched out her hand to cover her beating heart, which frightened her to death.
When the old man heard the little girl's movements, he turned around and thanked her solemnly: "Thank you for your help, little friend. I would like to express my gratitude here."
The little girl covered her heart and said, "You're welcome. If you want to say thank you next time, you can come out during the day."
Old man:......
He was full of apologies: "I'm sorry, I just think the moonlight tonight is good. When I woke up, I wanted to bask in the moonlight. I didn't expect it would disturb my little friend."
The little girl waved her hand, "Forget it, I'm already awake."
The little girl looked at the old man curiously and asked, "I heard from Third Brother that you want to find your friend?"
"Yes," the old man nodded.
Little Milk Bag: "Is it also a book? How were you separated?"
"My friend is an inkstone. After the old gentleman passed away, my friend and I traveled around the mountains and rivers until a hundred years ago the color of the world changed, the spiritual energy of the world disappeared, and the Age of Ending Dharma came."
"This is extremely harmful to little monsters like Lao Chan. In order to save their lives, Lao Chan and his friends found a place where the dragon energy was and fell into a deep sleep. We wanted to wait for the spiritual energy to revive and then wake up and continue to travel the mountains and rivers. "
Unexpectedly, when Shu Ling woke up from his deep sleep, he was already in a strange place, and his friend was nowhere to be found.
It tried to find its friends, but its own strength was so weak that it didn't even have the strength to move its body.
It could only wait quietly, waiting for its strength to recover before going out to find friends, until one day, Shu Ling's book was delivered to Tang Ying.
Tang Ying himself had a weak power, but he didn't realize it. Because of Tang Ying, the book spirit was able to appear in human form.
When the little girl heard this, she couldn't help but raise her hand to stop Shu Ling from continuing.
Shu Ling looked at her without knowing why, and Xiao Naibao asked: "So, the reason why my third brother became seriously ill before was because you absorbed his power?"
Having said this, Shu Ling felt very guilty: "Yes, little friend Tang Ying is young and spends time with me day and night. I unknowingly absorbed his power, causing him to become weak and sick."
After Tang Ying fell ill, Shu Ling was shocked and realized that he had harmed a good child.
Seeing that Tang Ying's high fever persisted, Shu Ling used his own power to help him recover. Tang Ying's high fever subsided, and Shu Ling's accumulated strength over the years was very little, and then he fell into a deep sleep.
It regained consciousness three days ago, but it still cannot move.
In the past few days, it has seen the two children get along with each other, and also knows that Xiao Naibao is a good child.
Xiao Naibao looked at it and put the talisman in his hand back under the pillow. Okay, this old man doesn't seem to be a bad guy, so give him a break.
The next day.
Tang Ying was very happy to see Grandpa Shu Ling awake and trotted up to Shu Ling: "Grandpa Shu Ling, you're awake..."
"Wait, don't come closer," Grandpa Shuling raised his hand in a panic to signal Tang Ying not to come close to him.
Tang Ying stopped and looked at him in confusion, his expression a bit confused and at a loss. He subconsciously looked at the little milk bag.
Xiao Naibao explained to him, "Grandpa is worried that he will harm you again."
"You hurt me again?" Tang Ying didn't quite understand.
Xiao Naibao told him the reason why he had a high fever before.
Grandpa Shuling apologized to Tang Ying: "Little friend Tang Ying, I'm really sorry. It was me who hurt you."
Humans are very fragile creatures. If it had noticed it later, Tang Ying would have been burned to death.
"No, it's okay," Tang Ying replied subconsciously.
Little Milk Bag: "It doesn't matter. If it saves you a little later, Third Brother, you will become a fool."
Tang Ying was shocked when he heard Xiao Naibao's words.
When Grandpa Shuling saw this, he stayed away. Tang Ying looked at him and then at the little baby bag, his expression even more at a loss.
Xiao Naibao added: "But there's no need to be afraid now."
Shu Ling and Tang Ying looked at her in surprise. Xiao Naibao pointed at the black bead pendant Tang Ying wore on his chest and said, "This bead was made by my third senior brother. It can bless my third brother, so There is no problem for you two to contact each other now."
Tang Ying listened to her words and touched the black bead pendant on his neck. This was the second time he stayed at the Taoist Temple. Mingyue Tong gave it to him and asked him to wear it without saying anything else.
Tang Ying asked Xiao Naibao with a worried tone: "This bead can protect me, but will it hurt Grandpa Shuling?"
The little girl shook her head: "As long as Grandpa Shuling doesn't have any intention of harming you, it won't be dangerous."
Tang Ying breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this: "That's good."
The book spirit also breathed a sigh of relief. It was really worried that if it accidentally got close to its little friend, it would turn into ashes.
"Now that Grandpa Shuling is awake, let's take the next step," Xiao Naibao thought of something and said.
Tang Ying: "Next step?"
"Look for Grandpa Shuling's friends," the little girl reminded him.
Shu Ling wants to find his best friend and continue to travel around the world with his friend.
