Only the child found it interesting. He let go of the jade Ruyi, and the yellow light gradually disappeared. He pressed a finger on the Ruyi jade, and the Ruyi suddenly emitted a bright yellow light. Then his finger left Ruyi again, and the yellow light returned. Disappeared.
He felt very novel and even more amused, so he kept tapping Ruyi with his fingers, the speed getting faster and faster, making the yellow light flash back and forth like a thunderbolt on a sunny day.
Old Man Tang gradually recovered from the shock, and found that his magic weapon was being played around like a toy by this child who needed to be beaten. He was a little annoyed, so he casually smoked the cigarette bag in the child's hand and put away the jade Ruyi. got up.
When the child saw that Yu Ruyi was gone, he muttered something stingy, stood up and turned to leave. He saw that his brothers before came and touched Ruyi and were sent away. He had also touched Ruyi, so why wait for him if he didn't leave?
"Stop!" Old Man Tang had no choice but to hold the child back. Then Mr. Tang turned around and said to Master Lu with a smile, "Congratulations, Master Lu."
As soon as he said congratulations, he saw that Master Lu was already so excited that the wrinkles on his face were trembling. He saluted Mr. Tang in a trembling voice and asked, "Master Immortal, so my grandson can go with him." Learn skills?"
"This kid has good qualifications, so he can certainly do it." Old Man Tang also said happily.
"Ah!" Zhuangzhu Lu exclaimed, as if he was surprised and didn't know what to do. Although this immortal master was a bit stingy, he was willing to take his grandson to learn the magic. This was a great thing. He was so happy that he didn't know what to do. Suddenly, he saw his son, Lao Si, standing beside him stupidly, so he put his foot in Lao Si's knee and shouted, "Why don't you kowtow to the immortal master to express your gratitude!"
In fact, there is the last step in the normal selection process, which is to ask the child if you are willing to follow me to my sect to practice. If you are willing, you can go naturally. If you don’t want to, no one can force you. However, Old Man Tang glanced at I glanced at the child and thought to myself that this dim and dull boy would really say no if he couldn't protect himself. That would be shooting himself in the foot. No, this child has such good qualifications that I haven't seen in many years. He can do such a good job. A child with an unlimited future is brought back to the sect. No matter who he is accepted as a disciple, he will have to accept my favor. From now on, I can look at the sky with my nostrils when walking in the sect. This last step is unnecessary.
Thinking of this, Mr. Tang was ready to let the child get in the car early, and then leave quickly, first making the raw rice into cooked rice.
When he was about to speak to the child, the child spoke first, "I'm not going!"
Elder Tang secretly screamed something bad, and almost at the same time he asked the angry Master Lu: "Why!"
The child looked at Mr. Tang and his grandfather and father who were still kneeling, and said loudly and aggrievedly: "I am already fourteen, and in two years it will be time for me to have a wife. My father has already told me." , let me wait another two years, get more skins, dig more herbs, save money, and then go to the county town down the mountain to find a good-looking wife. After I leave with him, what skills do I need to learn? How long does it take to come back and forth! Doesn't this delay me from marrying my wife? No, no, no!" After saying that, he glared at Old Man Tang fiercely and stood there angrily.
There was silence.
Bursting laughter could be heard from time to time in the crowd, first the children, then the adults, and then the adults and children burst into laughter together.
Master Lu was so angry that he was trembling all over. He stretched out his hand tremblingly and pointed at the unfilial grandson. He wanted to go and beat him, but he felt that his heart was burning and he couldn't move at all. When he glanced at his son, Laosi, who was kneeling beside him, he was so cruel. He slapped the fourth child hard on the back, almost knocking the fourth child to the ground, and cursed angrily: "You have raised a good son!"
Old Man Tang also suppressed the urge in his heart to beat up this kid, calmed down and asked, "What are you doing with your wife?"
After hearing this, the child rolled his eyelids and replied loudly: "Of course it's a baby!"
The crowd burst into laughter again.
Old Man Tang was so choked that he rolled his eyes. The original meaning of his question was: I have practiced hard for more than a century before I can achieve what I have achieved today. Apart from my own high intelligence and painstaking practice, it is all thanks to my husband Yuanyang Wei. After all, I am still a child. It's not that I don't want to find a Taoist companion, but I'm afraid that once Yuanyang leaks, the progress of practice will not be so smooth. You don't want to make progress at a young age, you always think about finding a wife, and you also want to find a good-looking wife. But you don't know how much harder it will be to practice cultivation when your Yuanyang falls?
But you can't say this to the child, even if you say it, the child won't understand. They are right, marrying a wife is naturally to have children.
Old Man Tang realized that he was wrong. This boy's temperament was that of a donkey. He would not go away if he was being led, and he would move backwards. If he wanted to make him obey, he had to obey him. So he thought about it for a moment, and then said: "Your father said Do you want to find you a good-looking girl from the county to be your wife?"
"yes."
"Then do you want a wife from the county or a good-looking wife?" Mr. Tang continued to ask.
The child had never thought about this problem. He stood there thinking about it for a while and said shyly: "Of course I want to find a good-looking one, but my father said that good-looking women are all in the county."
The crowd burst into laughter again. Master Lu slapped his son again.
The fourth child was kneeling there, wishing he could rush over and beat up the traitor. He said that, wondering if his wife would let him enter the house tonight. He raised his head slightly, and then faced two sharp shots from the crowd. The look in his eyes made him hurriedly lower his head.
"Oh," Mr. Tang nodded, and said in a persuasive way, "If you say that, you should come with me."
"Why?" the child asked puzzledly.
"Boy, let me tell you, not to mention the entire cultivation world, even in my Wuling Sect, there are many female monks and female disciples. Which one of them is not beautiful and fragrant, charming the country and the city, and is not thousands better than the women you can find in the county. Ten thousand times?"
When Elder Tang said this, he sighed in his heart, how could he seduce this child like this? When he returns to the sect in the future, he will let the lower-ranking female disciples and female monks of the same generation think of him. He is afraid that he will look down upon him. My spine was about to be broken by someone from behind, alas!
But it's...what a great idea!
"Really?" The child obviously didn't believe it.
"You bastard!" Master Lu couldn't help it anymore and scolded sternly, "When people say a woman is beautiful, they say she looks like a fairy! When they say a woman is beautiful, they say she is as beautiful as a fairy. Wherever the fairy master wants to take you, Naturally, there are so many fairies that you can't pick one. If any one of them is no better than the ordinary women in the county, are you stupid? Don't you understand this?" It seems that Mr. Lu is not a fuel-efficient lamp either. When talking about beautiful women, she immediately doesn’t look like an old farmer in the mountains.
After hearing this, the child scratched his head, thought for a moment, and said, "What my grandpa said makes sense."
"Have you figured it out? Then come with me!" Old Man Tang quickly got off the slope.
"I'm not going!" Unexpectedly, the child said firmly again.
"Why?" Master Lu said angrily.
"I heard people say that immortals often train their buttocks. Once their buttocks are well trained, they can go without eating for a year. From my point of view, immortals are nothing special. Isn't it just a matter of practicing food-saving skills? ? No, I love eating meat and drinking wine. If I can hunt, I won’t be short of meat. I can sell my skins in exchange for wine. I’m too lazy to train my butt!"
The child had one butt on the left and one on the right. The old man Tang was confused and didn't understand what he was talking about. When he understood what he was talking about, he became furious. He stood up and hit the child on the head with his pipe. He said angrily: "Shut up, what nonsense are you talking about? Who told you that immortals practice butt/butt training? It's called bigu (sound: avoiding the valley), it's called Juegu, it's called removing grains, it's called removing grains, it's called resting grains, do you understand? ! It means not eating grains, inhaling wind and drinking dew. It is an auxiliary method for practice. Who told you that immortals can only practice... practice the art of saving food. There are many kinds of practice methods, and there are countless magical powers. Watch!”
As he said that Old Man Tang wanted to show off, he glanced around and had an idea in his mind, and saw him hooking his hand.
Everyone didn't understand it at first, but soon they saw a rugged boulder rising slowly from the peak on one side of the valley, and then came with the sound of wind and thunder. When it arrived on the field in front of the ancestral hall, it was floating lightly. It levitated and did not fall, causing people to run away in fear.
But he saw the old man Tang flicking his sleeve, and a small blue sword with brilliant colors flew out from his sleeve. It swelled in the wind and was suddenly about ten feet long. With a "click", the sword split the huge stone into two halves. Then the long sword became smaller and split into two. Each of the two small swords began to cut on half of the boulder. As the gravel fell one after another, people dodged. In a moment, the two small swords merged into one and flew back. When people looked again, they saw two ferocious and powerful stone beasts slowly falling to the ground.
Elder Tang turned to Master Lu and said, "Seeing that your ancestral hall is a little deserted, I will give you two stone beasts to guard the door." Master Lu was overjoyed and thanked him profusely.
After showing off, Old Man Tang looked at the boy's dumbfounded look and said with some pride: "Boy, this is just a small trick, not even a magical technique. You are short-sighted and you don't know the truth of the three thousand avenues. But you can’t just follow what others say and just do what they say. Who the hell told you that immortals practice butt/butt training?”
"My dad!"
Old Man Tang was furious again. The child's father, the fourth child, was really a loser. If it hadn't been for him, the child would have been taken away by himself, and he would still be busy here juggling. As he thought about it, Old Man Tang glared at the kneeling fourth child, wishing that thunder would strike him into charcoal.
Master Lu became even more angry when he heard what the child said. Seeing that the immortal master was angry, he cooperated and slapped his son hard again.
(Continued Cup)
The fourth child feels so miserable!
His head was buzzing from the slap from Master Lu, and his back was in burning pain from the slap from Master Lu. How the hell did I give birth to such a son? You'd better follow the immortal master. If you don't leave, without your grandfather doing anything, I will beat you half to death and then throw you into the mountain stream to feed the wolves!
"Boy, it is true that monks can practice fasting after a certain period of time, but not all monks are fasting. Our Five Spirits Sect has a practice method that is very different. Those who practice this method must not only eat meat, but also eat more. Not only do you have to drink, but you also have to drink more. Only through this method of tonic can you build an indestructible body. What they eat is not ordinary meat. Your wild boar is not in their eyes at all. What they eat is... Only by becoming a monk can you catch and cook Taoist spiritual birds and monsters. The wine they drink is made from fairy fruits and grass. A drop of it in your throat can make you travel thousands of miles!" In addition to his profound cultivation, Elder Tang In addition, he is also good at brewing various spiritual wines and is very famous in the Wuling Sect. These words are not a lie to him.
At this point, the child was really moved by what he said, and asked Mr. Tang, "Is what you said true?"
"Of course it's true. At such an old age, why should I lie to you about a child?" As he said this, Old Man Tang thought that this child was very qualified and should be able to withstand the alcoholic power of the fairy wine he carried. He took an empty tea cup on the table, and took out a small vermilion jar from his body. After opening it, he poured a cup into the tea cup. The aroma of wine immediately overflowed, making people intoxicated.
Elder Tang raised the tea cup and said, "Although I live without food, I still drink alcohol. Today is also your fate, so just try this glass of wine." Then he handed the cup to the boy.
The child was overjoyed. He took the cup, put his nose to the rim of the cup and took a deep breath. This breath was as long as a whale sucking water. With the "hissing" sound of inhaling, the kneeling Lu The owner of the village and everyone present swallowed with greed.
"It smells so good!" The child praised after exhaling, then closed his eyes and raised his neck and poured a teacup of wine into his mouth.
When he opened his eyes, the child found that he was floating over the valley. The sun in front of him was not dazzling, it was just a yellow, bright and soft circle. The sunlight was very warm, and it fell on his face and hands, just like rain falling on his face. The long-term dry land penetrates into his skin and flesh, and he can feel the rays of sunlight swimming along his blood vessels and reaching his limbs and bones. Everywhere is warm and comfortable.
In my ears are the whistling wind, the waves of pine trees in the mountains and forests, the tinkling of mountain springs and the croaking of deer. The nose can not only smell but also distinguish the aroma of various unknown wildflowers and the slightly fishy smell of the soil beneath the wildflowers, as well as the mellow aroma of resin dripping from the forest and the sweet honey of wild beehives.
I don't know if it was the sun or the wind that made my face itch slightly.
The mountains below me are winding and undulating like giant snakes, and there are wild animals running in the mountains and forests. The mountains in the distance are endless and endless, like static waves.
Looking down, he also recognized that the small squares at his feet were his Lujiazhuang. He recognized the Lu family's ancestral hall and the clansmen gathered there. He also saw his grandfather giving his father another slap in the face. , saying that this boy is not filial, he only cares about drinking the fairy wine without respecting the old man first.
A little dizzy, but so comfortable! He felt so comfortable that he closed his eyes again.
When I opened my eyes again, I still saw the immortal master in front of me, looking at me with a smile, "How about it! I'm not lying to you. Although you haven't practiced yet, you have good qualifications, so you can drink my lightest cup of spiritual wine." .As for meat, you won’t know what the best taste in the world is until you eat it!”
Done! After making up his mind, he handed the teacup in his hand to the immortal master, "One more cup!" The child said decisively, "I'll follow you right away!"
The dust has finally settled!
Seeing the child named Lu Pingchuan kowtow to his parents and then climb into the carriage carrying a big burden, Mr. Tang's heart finally dropped. This child came out to host the first-class selection this time, which cost me a lot of words and gave me a headache. However, although it was a headache, it was also the biggest gain.
When Mr. Tang was about to get in the car, he looked at the people of the Lu family and felt a little unbearable. After all, he had coaxed and deceived their children and ran away, so he wanted to leave something to make up for it. When he thought of this, he took out a pen and paper and wrote a Fang Zi, called Zhuang Lu and said to him: "I leave you a recipe for brewing medicinal wine. You should have the medicinal materials in the mountains and forests nearby. You can buy them even if you don't have an estimate. According to my instructions, Make the recipe and drink it. Although I can’t guarantee that everyone in your village will live a long life, it can at least make your Lujiazhuang a place of longevity. Take it, and don’t think of me as a stingy person anymore. .”
Master Lu burst into tears of gratitude and led the entire clan to express their gratitude.
As expected, Lujiazhuang has become a veritable hometown of longevity. It is common for five generations to live under one roof, and it is not uncommon for six generations to live under one roof. I don’t know how much time has passed since then. Every year, the Lu family worships their ancestors. Before worshiping the ancestral tablets, they first worship a pair of ferocious stone beasts outside the ancestral hall. The pair of stone beasts are covered in red and decorated, and firecrackers are set off. It is very lively. It is said that the pair of stone beasts are The beasts were transformed into two mountain monsters caught by the immortal, and they were specially sent to protect Lujiazhuang and ensure the safety of the place. They have been receiving incense for so many years, and they are known for their ability to respond to all requests and their efficacies.
But Lu Pingchuan was surprised when he entered the carriage and murmured: "My dear, it's really big in here!"
He is a person with a simple mind and a rough personality. Such a person is the easiest to be surprised. Although he is curious, he is not surprised. He took a step forward and walked in, looking around as he walked. He didn't care about the decorations and scenery in the carriage, but he was interested in the people inside. He looked around with his big eyes open.
Li Jian was sleeping against the wall near the entrance of the car. When he saw the big man coming, he couldn't help but take a second look, secretly thinking that this guy seemed to be brave.
Lu Pingchuan was a little disappointed. This was the car of the immortal master. These people inside were all immortals, right? The girls in this row look pretty, but why are they all so skinny and weak? Can they get married?
After walking for two steps, he stopped and looked to see where he could sit. He likes to be lively by nature. There are many brothers and sisters in his family. They play together every day. All he wants is to find a place with many people to sit down. As soon as I saw an empty futon in a crowd, I was about to go over, when I heard a dissatisfied voice coming from below.
"Hello!"
He looked down and saw a young lady with a pink face full of displeasure.
"What are you doing?" he asked in a muffled voice.
He thought his voice was not loud, but it sounded like beating a drum to the little lady's ears. In addition, the two big bull's eyes stared at him side by side, making her speechless in shock.
Seeing that the girl didn't speak, Lu Pingchuan ignored her and walked over. As he walked, he muttered, "You are as thin as a plucked monkey, why don't you eat more meat!"
In Lu Pingchuan's opinion, the so-called fairies should at least have a front and a back, or preferably a front and a back before they are called fairies. Can these little girls with washboard-like figures in the movie be able to have children? He vaguely felt as if he had been tricked by the old man.
But after hearing what he said, the little lady felt aggrieved and burst into tears, not forgetting to tug on her skirt.
After walking two steps and arriving in front of the group of people, Lu Pingchuan shouted: "Make way, give way" and sat down among the children of the aristocratic families. His body was naturally broad, and coupled with the large burden on his back, he pushed the people sitting on both sides outward.
The group of children from aristocratic families were also extremely depressed. Originally, each of them had their eyes set on their own due to their respective family backgrounds, but first they were beaten down by a cunning and ferocious money boy. They were dejected, and then another man who was obviously from the world squeezed in. The guy insisted on sitting with him, and he was dissatisfied. Seeing the guy's bear-like figure, no one dared to object.
"Brothers, where are we going and how long will we stay?" Lu Pingchuan sat down and asked the boys around him. But no one paid attention to him. All the boys around him lowered their heads, not looking at him, but looking at him with evasive eyes, which made Lu Pingchuan very unhappy.
Suddenly his nose twitched and he smelled the smell of fragrant powder. He smelled it again and again. Sure enough, it was the smell of fragrant powder. He looked around suspiciously. The children's hair was as smooth as those of the female dolls opposite. Generally, the face has red lips and white skin, but none of them is the color that a normal man's face should have. One boy even had a flower in his hat. He suddenly felt a chill, so he stood up and muttered: " Damn it, grandma, you are so unlucky, why are you a bunch of dumb people!"
When he was turning to leave, a child couldn't help but stood up and scolded: "You are the mute! Why are you so rude and rude!"
Lu Pingchuan looked down at the boy. He was not short among the group of people, but he only just reached Lu Pingchuan's chest and abdomen. He stretched out his left hand and pinched the child's collar, and lifted it up. The child was lifted up to face him. The kid didn't expect that this big guy would actually take action directly. He immediately regretted it and secretly cursed himself for not being calm. What did he do to provoke this guy?
"You... put me down... what are you going to do!" The child was so scared that he couldn't help but struggle.
Lu Pingchuan ignored him, and after carefully looking at the boy's face, he stretched out his right index finger and scratched the boy's face, then brought it to his nose and smelled it. He had been hunting in the mountains and forests all day long. When had he smelled this? The scent on my fingers made my nostrils itchy and I suddenly sneezed loudly.
Fortunately, the child was in the way, so there was no damage at all. It was all sprayed on the child's face. At this moment, the child who was picked up turned pale, his eyes were blurred, and he almost died.
"Look at you, let's say you are a man. You have powder on your face, incense on your body, and the makeup on your eyebrows. You are more elegant than those female dolls over there! Let's say you are a woman. You have a sore throat. It’s quite big, with thick hands and feet, and it’s uncomfortable to look at.”
As soon as he let go, the child fell to the ground. I don't know whether he was angry or frightened. He lay on the ground and trembled all over, not even bothering to wipe his face.
This time, almost all the young masters from the aristocratic families were scolded. Eighty percent of the young men from these aristocratic families considered themselves to be handsome young masters, beautiful young men from troubled times. All of them had a light layer of powder on their faces, and some even used rouge. . Their clothes were even more smoked with incense, and some used charcoal to draw two sword-shaped eyebrows on their temples, and then added them with knife-like temples. They held a precious folding fan in their hands, thinking that they were elegant and well-groomed. Excellent, I didn't expect to be scolded as a man or a woman, so I wanted to find a crack to get in.
Hearing this, Qian Chao was fine, but Tang Ping burst out laughing and stared at Qian Chao's face, as if he wanted to imitate the big man and scratch Qian Chao's face with his fingers. , making Qian Chao hide and shake his head.
Lu Pingchuan walked inside again, and further inside was the Fourth Young Master Wei and his group. However, no matter how scheming the Fourth Young Master Wei was, his courage dropped when he saw this big guy and he did not dare to act rashly.
Lu Pingchuan didn't look at the Fourth Young Master Wei. As he passed by, he inadvertently glanced at a little guy sitting outside. He immediately shouted with a trembling voice: "I don't know where I'm going... let alone how long I'll stay!"
Lu Pingchuan snorted and walked to an empty futon to sit down. He didn't eat properly in the morning and only took two random bites. Before he was full, his father grabbed his ear and came out to participate in some competition. Although he drank two glasses of wine from the immortal master, he didn't feel full because of the wine. Now he was hungry again. . He opened his bag and found that except for a few clean clothes, it was all food. There were all kinds of dried meat, bacon, roasted chicken and elbows. He stuffed them into his mouth one by one and ate heartily.
After eating and tidying up for a while, as if he was drunk, he started to pack up several futons nearby and spread them together, using the big bundle as a pillow and lay down to sleep.
As soon as he fell asleep, it became more lively, and the snoring sound was like thunder.
Yanxuan, who was leaning against the pillar, suddenly woke up. He squinted his eyes and asked Tang Ping drowsily: "Why is there thunder?" Tang Ping almost fell over with laughter.
I don’t know how long it took, but Lu Pingchuan was still sleeping. He felt someone pushing him, so he was very unhappy and muttered: "Don't make trouble, it's not dawn yet!"
"Brother, brother!" Seeing that he was unconscious, the man pushed him a few more times.
Lu Pingchuan sat up and looked at the person pushing him drowsily, a little annoyed that this person disturbed his good sleep.
"What!?" He said angrily to the little boy in front of him.
"We're at the place, it's time to go down." The little boy said to him.
Lu Pingchuan took a look, and sure enough, there was no one around him. Only some people were walking out one after another at the door. He still remembered that there were people around him before falling asleep. Why didn't anyone call him? Thanks to this The little guy is kind, otherwise he might have made a mistake.
"It's so unreasonable that none of these guys woke me up. It's all thanks to you, brother." After saying that, he got up, picked up the bag and walked out with the little guy.
"What's your name, brother."
"My name is Qian Chao, Qian Cai Qian, Chao Shui Chao, I haven't asked my brother for advice yet."
"What's the meaning!"
"Uh... I'm asking for Xiongtai's name."
"Oh, I knew it if you said so. My name is Lu Pingchuan."
