Is Master happy?

A certain Kong Zhoushan Great Immortal led his little apprentice, he walked into a small teahouse with high spirits, and hurriedly took his seat. Before he could order anything, he stared at the old storyteller in the teahouse, wanting to see how he is today. Not to talk about myself again.

The old man didn't say anything about fairy tales, but took a sip of herbal tea, slapped the gavel, and talked about which county or alley a poor scholar abducted the daughter of a rich family and eloped. Look, the story of snatching into the palace and becoming a concubine.

Xi Ya listened very interestingly, but Yao Zhou shook his head again and again, saying, "No, no, this old man is obviously talking nonsense, let's not talk about how that weak scholar can climb a high wall to steal people, let's talk about that daughter Miss, she is obviously the daughter of a wealthy businessman in a state, and she was raised by a successor from a young age. She has never seen such a young man, how could she be cheated away by a scholar with a word, and the emperor, who claims to be the supreme in the world, but for a little girl Dismissing the harem, and even dismissing my queen, I'm afraid I feel that my throne is too secure."

"But one person is willing to give up everything, isn't it very touching?" Xi Ya propped her head on her hands, and asked her in confusion, "My mother only hopes that my father will only have her in his heart, but besides her, there is still a child in his heart. Although I haven't seen her girlfriend for decades, she still mentions it from time to time, so I think it's better to give love to only one person."

"Silly girl." Yaozhou stroked her head, with a little gleam in her dark eyes, and sighed softly, "The lifespan of a person is only a hundred years, and it is very difficult to be a couple for a lifetime, let alone Not to mention us immortals, with a lifespan of tens of thousands of years left, it would be very difficult for us to remember the person we first saw, let alone being emotional for only one person?"

Xi Ya looked at her, his heart tightened, and he asked her suddenly: "Then Master...does Master forget anything?"

Yaozhou smiled "puchi", "You said you forgot, so how could Master remember?"

She smiled vertically, but there was a little gleam in her eyes, a little bit of loneliness was deeply hidden in her eyes, and she refused to let go.

Xi Ya looked into her eyes, and felt her heart tremble, as if she felt as if she was going to leave him in an instant, her heart ached suddenly, she didn't know why, she just held Yao Zhou's hand tightly, wishing she could With a heart out posture, he whispered: "Even if tens of thousands of years, tens of thousands of years, I will never forget Master, even if Master forgets me, I will never forget Master, really, Master, I... "She was hotheaded, but she didn't know what to say next, so she blushed and stuttered.

"I know, Master knows." Yaozhou was startled by her serious look, but the next moment he was full of tenderness, pinching her petite and soft hands, "Xi Ya is a long-lasting person, and he will never forget Master."

Xi Ya pursed his lips tightly and nodded solemnly, then turned his head to the old storyteller. He was still sitting beside a long table, talking endlessly about the fate between the rich lady and the scholar emperor, but at this moment Xi Ya felt that It doesn't sound good, all she can think about is the momentary sadness in Yaozhou's eyes just now, and there is a trace of inexplicable discomfort in her heart, maybe Master also has a feeling of reluctance, but I don't know how long this feeling has tired her?Is the person she misses so much still in this world?

The waiter in the teahouse came up to inquire, Yaozhou chose a few exquisite and small teas, and most of them let Xiya come to eat, and he only held the teacup, looking at the layers of people surrounding the old storyteller, half bored and half bored Sitting wandering.

The storyteller said that when the young lady became a noble concubine and became pregnant, there was a sudden "dingling bang bang" sound of gongs on the street, and all the tea drinkers in the teahouse were led to the street to have a look. He squinted his eyes and sat upright, taking a sip of the herbal tea prepared for him by the store, probably waiting for the tea guests to come back before starting the lecture.

The tea drinkers stood in several rows around the door, and the people behind looked on tiptoe. The stream and the boat hadn't moved, and those who sat on their seats drank tea, and those who ate dim sum had dim sum.

The waiter came to refill tea for them, still looking outside the door, he said to the two: "There is a trickster outside, and he is holding a red fox in his hand, it's very rare, don't you two go and see it?"

"Do you want to go and see?" Yao Zhou asked Xi Ya instead of answering.

Seeing so many people around, Xi Ya didn't really want to go, but seeing Yao Zhou's interest, he nodded and said, "I want to go, Master."

"Okay, then let's go and have a look." Yaozhou took out the tea money and paid, and the two went out through the crowd. There were many people around on the street, and they all looked at the gray cloth long gown with white hair and white beard. He is an old man, holding a dust whisk in one hand and a rope in the other. A red-haired dog-like animal is tied to the end of the rope. At the moment, he is lying half-lying with his head down, his eyebrows lowered, and he is secretly looking at the people around him.

Seeing that the street was almost crowded with people, the old Taoist swept away his whisk, coughed lightly, and said loudly and authentically: "I have traveled all over the world, old Taoist, and have done fortune-telling, Feng Shui, selling calligraphy and painting, and catching demons in various cities over the years. That monster is so cruel to people that it really makes people want to get rid of it quickly, but the old man is kind-hearted and wants to save their lives, so he takes this beast to travel around the world, hoping that it can get rid of its hostility, and it is also considered a veteran. It is a merit, it is just that the journey to this Kongzhou city cost a lot of money, and now I really have nothing, so I have to disturb the people in the city."

He pulled the fox, and the fox got up obediently, limped and walked in front of him, looking at everyone with timid eyes.

"The old Taoist is not a beggar, so this statement is definitely not to ask the fathers and villagers to donate money. This beast knows some tricks. The old Taoist let him show one or two. If you like it, you can join the show and donate one or two."

There was a booing sound from the crowd. Seeing that the atmosphere was good, the old Taoist took out a wooden ball from his bag, and kicked the red fox lightly. The fox shivered, retracted its front paws, and stood up with its two hind paws. , very nimbly walked to the opposite side of the old man, stood still, waited for the old man coughed and threw the wooden ball in his hand, the red fox trot forward, jumped up and caught the wooden ball, and then fell back to the ground , trotted to Lao Dao's side, and handed the ball back to his hand.

People watched and exclaimed constantly. Wherever they had seen a fox walking on its hind legs before, they decided in their hearts that this must be a goblin.

The fox ran up and down several times, already panting and exhausted, Xi Ya frowned, feeling a little pitiful for it, thinking that the old man kept saying that goblins were hateful and that he was transforming the fox, but the fox was thin Dirty, but he was dressed neatly, beating and scolding this fox harshly, how can he talk about the kindness of being a thief and a monk.

Seeing her angry, Yao Zhou took her hand to comfort her slightly.

After performing acrobatics, the old man was still not satisfied, so he pulled the fox while the crowd was cheering. The fox had tears in his eyes, and whimpered in his mouth. It changed instantly, and the smoke suddenly rose, and it suddenly turned into a small fox. The donkey changed again and became a little rabbit.

When a mortal has ever seen such a strange scene, they immediately exclaimed, and the crowd dispersed, but they were curious and reluctant to leave, so they scattered far away, stretching out their long necks to watch.

The fox changed into dozens of animals before stopping. When the smoke cleared, it half sat on the ground, panting heavily with its tongue out.

The old man dragged it back to his side, stuffed a small copper pot in its front paws, kicked it, it wobbled, stood on its hind legs, followed the old man to the front of the crowd, and collected the reward.

After walking more than half a circle, the fox came to Xi Ya's side, held up the copper pot and looked at it pitifully, waiting for her to put in the reward.

Xi Ya was very angry in her heart, she glared at the old man angrily, and then looked at the fox, she always felt disgusted by bullying the weak when her family was in trouble, at the moment, she was only suffering from her lack of skill in spells, and she couldn't be as powerful as this old man, otherwise she would have to do it for the fox Exit.

She took Yaozhou's hand, shook it, and called Master softly, and wanted to ask her to give the fox a couple of dollars, maybe let it rest for a few days.

Looking up, he saw Yao Zhou staring at the fox, and after a while he turned back to look at her, with a smile on his lips, half jokingly said: "This fox is very well trained, how can this half-did Taoist be able to catch it? It's amazing."

Although she looked at Xiya, the words in her mouth were directed at the old Taoist.

When the old Taoist heard it, his face became unsightly. It took him a long time to suppress his anger, pretending to be profound, and said indifferently: "This girl has a very big tone. You said that this fox has a good cultivation. The old Taoist guessed it right." It’s just that you slandered the old Taoist cultivation base, so let me ask you, if I’m really a hypocrite, how could I subdue this evil monster?”

"I think... Could it be that you stole the demon trapping rope from Beiqiu Cave Mansion, and sneaked up on the fox when it was injured and weak?" Yaozhou looked at him with a pair of clear eyes, and his tone was more composed, but he could hear that. The old man turned pale instantly.

"Nonsense! Monastics don't tell lies, and the crime of stealing is the most despicable. How can I do this kind of thing?" He broke his calm appearance and stared at Yao Zhou angrily, as if suffering A great humiliation.

Xiya was already angry at him for bullying the weak creatures, but now seeing him staring at Yaozhou with an unfriendly expression, he felt even more annoyed, so he took a step forward and inserted himself between him and Yaozhou, never wanting such a person to pollute his master. Eye.

"That's all, the old Taoist doesn't care about you little girl." Seeing someone with an impatient face in the crowd, the old Taoist kept muttering that his heart was not old, pulled the rope in his hand, and raised his leg to leave.

Who would have thought that the fox would understand some of the ways of the world after becoming a spirit, and seeing Yaozhou realize the truth, made the old Taoist a little bit embarrassed, and suddenly felt that the day to escape from the sea of ​​suffering had arrived, and when he fixed his eyes, he felt that Yaozhou was full of immortality Huanbu, who had the temperament of a hermit, felt his heart beating like a drum. Seeing that the old Taoist was going to pull him away, he thought about it again and again, but he felt that he would lose nothing if he tried hard, so he broke free desperately, and crossed the three rivers at the end of the river. He ran to Yaozhou's side step by step, and pulled Yaozhou's long skirt with two skinny red claws, refusing to let go.

Yaozhou looked down at it, half-smiling, but he didn't stop it, but the old man was anxious, he pulled the rope with his hands and pulled it again and again, cursing, half saying that the fox had no heart and would not repay him. The kindness, on the contrary, made it difficult for him, half of which was to scold Yaozhou for having evil intentions, maybe it was changed by the fox tribe to bully his neighbors and dominate the world.

Yao Zhou laughed lightly when he heard the words, held the angry Xi Ya with one hand, and said gently: "You say I am. Then I will admit it. I am indeed a vixen. Won't the Taoist come to catch me?"
