【Lotus Cake】A husband and son fell from the sky

When Ao Bingshang was young, his master Shen Gongbao once taught him a word:

People do not frivolously despise young people.

But people are too frivolous to lie down for half a year.

Shen Gongbao warned him that if he went out in the future, he must remember to protect himself first and keep his mind off his own business. Don't forget his important responsibilities for the Dragon Clan because of a momentary soft-heartedness. At least his identity will be exposed, and his life will be lost at worst.

At that time, Ao Bing was only about three years old. Because of the Lingzhu, his stature and mind were no different from ordinary teenagers, so his rebellion was exactly the same as other teenagers. Apart from practicing diligently, the rest of the time, It is to secretly read the popular martial arts scripts in the world behind the back of the father and master.

Now Ao Bing really doesn't want to look back on himself at that time, and he doesn't know why he always left some shameful lines after saving people. After all, it's written like this in martial arts scripts—falling from the sky The white-clothed knights always have to say some compelling appearances, so that the halo of their protagonist will blind you and other dog eyes.He was thankful countless times that he was fortunate enough to cover his face with a hood, and no one saw his face, otherwise he would not have had to shut him up, and he would have no face to leave the East China Sea.

But there are always exceptions to everything.

It was probably an afternoon when no one provoked anyone. Ao Bing was wandering around the East China Sea as usual, and was thinking about going back home. From a distance, he saw a child in the East China Sea who was all red and looked like a lantern beating Hai Yasha violently. Yacha was cunning and difficult to deal with, he jumped into water and was about to jump back into the sea, the child was so angry that he couldn't do anything, when Hai Yacha was proud, he turned his head and saw Ao Bing standing behind him with his hands behind his back.

To say that Ao Bing is an honest boy, it would be outdated to read a martial arts script.When he saw it, the chivalrous men circulated in the market were still elegant and majestic in white clothes, but in less than a year, the painting style in the market changed, and they began to describe the slovenly beggar gang leader who "hidden in the city" .Therefore, in the eyes of Hai Yacha, Ao Bing, who is lightly furred and dressed out of date, is equivalent to eight words:

It's not cannon fodder, it's the villain.

So Hai Yecha, who didn't look down on him at all, said three words to Ao Bing that determined his own destiny——

He said: What are you looking at?

Ao Bing, who originally just wanted to snatch the little girl, changed his mind in an instant, raised his hand and froze the sea surface for a mile around, and directly beat Hai Yacha into a sea dog.

Before he hugged the little girl and wanted to return the "red lantern", he had already prepared various response lines, such as "You don't need to say thank you for your help", "Walk in the rivers and lakes, nicknamed Langli Baitiao", "No need to visit, I am home in the world" and so on, who knew that the lantern didn't play cards according to the routine at all, kicked him in the air without saying a word, and even took off his hood arrogantly with a raised hand.

Ao Bing, who was standing there, was stunned for a moment, and the first thought that came to his mind was "This plot of taking off the mask is so familiar, I must have seen it in some book, but am I wrong?" script?"

He turned around and saw the kid who was not as tall as his girdle looking at him lazily, and said casually, "Why, are you not convinced?"

A red mark on the child's forehead was in the opposite direction of his blue forehead lines, like two seamless lines drawn by the pen of fate, engraved on the vague and boundless path of fate.

Ao Bing was not polite to him at all. He rolled up his sleeves and had a hearty fight with the child. He was only three years old anyway, so he had no psychological barriers to bullying children. The fight was so hearty that he felt Much more enjoyable than beating Kaiyasha.

It was just that he was careless later, and accidentally fell into Hai Yasha's evil trick, and was petrified together with the little girl he rescued. At the critical moment, thanks to the child's quick response and adaptability, he saved his life. Became friends without a doubt.

In fact, Ao Bing had secretly imagined before that if he made friends in the future, the first friend would be like what was written in the martial arts book: a rough man with a thick back and a strong waist, swallow jaw and tiger beard, and he was not a decisive battle in Chen Tang The top of the pass is to discuss swords with him on Mount Hua.

He did not expect to be a child who has not yet grown up, with a head as big as a bucket, a body length of three feet, ears protruding, nostrils facing the sky, and no deciduous teeth. Shuttlecock.

But Ao Bing sometimes thinks that the afternoon of kicking the shuttlecock was actually more beautiful than all his previous imaginations about his friends.

Many, many years later, when Master Taiyi heard that this was the case when he and Nezha met for the first time, he couldn't help sighing, and made a precise summary for him: the running and kicking the shuttlecock in the sunset were Your lost youth.

Ao Bing: "..."

However, after he and Nezha became close friends, Shen Gongbao was furious when he learned of this, and pointed at him with trembling hands "you you you you you" for a long time, looking at Ao Bing's innocent and confused face, he finally made up his mind Determined, he gritted his teeth and told him that Nezha was the magic pill of his natural partner.

After Yuanshi Tianzun refined the Hunyuan Orb, he let Daoist Taiyi reincarnate with the Lingzhu to become Li Jing's third son. If he succeeds, he can become one of the Twelve Golden Immortals of Kunlun. Yes, the way of heaven has its own definite number.

Shen Gongbao was dissatisfied, and secretly used the puppet talisman to package the Lingzhu and Magic Pill. He stole the Lingzhu and threw it on Ao Bing, while the Magic Pill was mistakenly thrown into Nezha.Taiyi knew that he had made such a big mess by mistake after drinking, so he immediately went to heaven to plead guilty with Tianzun. Yuanshi Tianzun gave an understatement "Oh", and said: In this case, this is the result of karma, and it is also a merit for Taiyi to teach the magic pill well and let him go on the right way.

If the evil habit of the magic pill is really hard to change, the murderous nature is still alive, and it is a disaster for all living beings, and no one else needs to intervene, the heaven will send a catastrophe to smash the magic pill.

After saying this sentence, Tianzun escaped, and the matter was over, it was gone.

Shen Gongbao was almost so enraged by Tianzun's upright and eccentric approach that he swallowed Ling Xiao's blood on the spot

So he sternly warned Ao Bing, his beloved disciple whom he had cultivated with all his painstaking efforts: "How far away from a person like Nezha is! It will save you from being struck by lightning in the future!"

Ao Bing thought for a while, but couldn't bear it, he cupped his fists to Shen Gongbao and said, "But if Nezha is dedicated to goodness and becomes a generous and just man, he won't be punished by the catastrophe, and he won't need to be thundered." It's a pain in the ass."

Shen Gongbao hated that iron could not be made into steel, and was so angry that the hairs on his body exploded: "He...how he is none of your business! You are the body of the Lingzhu. In the future, you will accumulate merit, become gods and immortals, and drag your people away from the bottom of the sea Purgatory, as for whether Nezha is dead or alive, it has nothing to do with you!"

Ao Bing was silent for a long time, lowering his head and wondering what he was thinking, and then finally, as if he had made up his mind, he knelt down suddenly with a "plop", kowtowed heavily to Shen Gongbao, and his forehead was instantly black and blue: "Ah! I will live up to the expectations of my father and master, and I will always remember the kindness of the Dragon Clan, but Nezha, since I recognize Nezha as my only friend, I should naturally share the same promise with my father, Nezha is now at the mercy of his life. Worry, I really can't just stand by and watch, master, please forgive me."

After speaking, he kowtowed heavily to Shen Gongbao three times until the blood on his forehead burst and a thin line of blood appeared, then he stood up and took a look at Shen Gongbao, bowed deeply at last, turned his head, and ran away.

Poor Shen Gongbao, after being vomited blood by his master, he was stabbed in the heart by his apprentice. If it wasn't for his lack of cultivation, he wished he could kill both master and apprentice Taiyi with a whip.

Two masters and apprentices, one cheating my master and the other abducting my apprentice, they all deserve to die, I am!

However, after Ao Bing ran out, he didn't know what to do. Although he didn't know what to do next, he just felt that he had to do something for Nezha.Help him go the right way even at all costs.He was walking aimlessly, and before he knew it, he came to the vicinity of Li's mansion. A big willow tree was planted at the base of the wall of Li's mansion. Among the luxuriant branches, he saw the little Nezha sitting on the branch of the tree with his legs crossed. After a while, when he saw him approaching, Nezha's lips were already curled up, but he deliberately pretended not to care, and asked Ao Bing lazily, "Do you want to accompany the young master?" Shall we play shuttlecock together?"

Ao Bing couldn't help laughing, looked up at Nezha, and said, "Okay."

After a pause, he added sincerely: "No matter what you want to do in the future, I will accompany you."

Nezha looked at him a little funny, tilted his head and was about to tease something, but his eyes suddenly became terrifying, jumped down from the tree and jumped in front of Ao Bing, raised his head and asked him sharply: "What are you doing?" What happened to the forehead? Who bullied you?"

Only then did Ao Bing realize that the forehead that had just been smashed was a little painful, he patted Nezha's head indifferently, and comforted him: "It's nothing, I knocked on the door frame while walking."

Nezha narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Ao Bing with a half-smile, and said, "You really think I'm as foolish as you? But that's all, if you don't want to say it, I won't ask." Passing Ao Bing's hand, he said as he walked: "Go back to the house first and get some medicine. From a distance, I saw you swaying over with a dazed face. In all likelihood, you had a fight with your master, right? Oh no, With your temperament, you won't talk back, and it's not bad to be scolded by your master unilaterally."

Ao Bing was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help but sighed. He admired Nezha's sharp mind, and he guessed casually, but he guessed almost right.

He even boasted that Haikou wanted to protect him, but thinking about it, he was actually a bit silly.

But he didn't say much, he just let Nezha drag him into Li's mansion, and then he was arranged to stay by Nezha in a daze.

That long, long time with Nezha was the most peaceful and peaceful time since Ao Bing was born.It's like a light boat sailing up the water and going upstream, the past time is pushed away layer by layer like ripples, the mist clears, the morning light is peaceful, the lotus fragrance lingers in the water and dissolves, the lotus leaves are like green, and the crape myrtle flowers are thick.

That was supposed to be engraved in his mind for him to cherish and remember for a lifetime, but he didn't know when he discarded it in the corner, let it be dusty and chained, and let him never see it again. I don't know what those past looks like.

Back then, Nezha still wore a Qiankun circle around his neck, and his body was round and small. He looked like a red lantern with gold trim hanging under the eaves during the Chinese New Year.Although Ao Bingming knew that he and Nezha were older, but facing such a small Nezha, Ao Bing still couldn't help feeling sorry for him. Zha went out to cause trouble, and he followed behind to clean up the mess and apologize to others.Nezha was talking nonsense, he stepped forward to dissuade him with a good temper, and then wrapped him in his arms to comfort him.Whatever excessive demands Nezha made, he would try his best to fulfill them, and if he couldn't, he would try his best to make him happy.Sometimes even Li Jing and his wife couldn't stand it anymore, and they whispered to Ao Bing in private, saying, child, if it's really not good, just beat Nezha, anyway, Nezha can't beat you now, don't watch Too hard on their face.

Although Ao Bing was a bit puzzled, he still smiled gently at the couple and said, he doesn't feel embarrassed, Nezha is very cute and understanding, and he thinks it is very fun to play with Nezha.

Li Jing and his wife thought about their son's impetuous, irritable and hostile virtues in unison. It is really far away from the gentle words such as "cute" and "understanding". Knowing what was blinding Ao Bing's eyes, he would use these irrelevant words to describe Nezha.

But only Daoist Taiyi was so moved that he burst into tears. If Ao Bing hadn't appeared in time, Nezha's behavior had gradually restrained, and he would have written a book "My Road to Accepting Apprentices-From Getting Started to Giving Up" in tears.

So in order to express his gratitude, the real Taiyi opened a small stove for his nephew, and asked Ao Bing and Nezha to practice together in the Shanhe Sheji map.Shen Gongbao, who occasionally came to visit Ao Bing, couldn't help mocking Taiyi coldly when he saw this:

"Master Guo...you are really partial, and even gave you the map of the mountains and rivers!"

Tai Yihun didn't care, just looked at Shen Gongbao with a smile and said: "Master is actually partial to you. You stole the Lingzhu and Master never accused you. He even secretly gave you a pair of ice hammers and asked you to pass them on to Ao Bing." , it’s good that you can’t see Master like this, wouldn’t it make Master feel too chilling?”

Shen Gongbao rolled his big eyes: "That's because I'm not as stupid as Ao Bing, and I can't find Bei after being poured with some ecstasy soup by your apprentice."

Taiyi was surprised and said: "Ah? Who are you calling stupid? Ao Bing?" He couldn't help laughing out loud, then shook his head and sighed again and again: "Oh, brother, after practicing for so long, why don't you see it? What is stupid and what is smart? If you are scheming and tactful, you are smart? You are responsible, loyal, humble and polite, respect your teacher, and be open-minded. You good disciple has everything. How can you become a fool? Don’t worry about those petty cleverness, great wisdom is really rare. If you want me to say, you disciple is the one who is really smart and enlightened.”

As he spoke, he twitched the beard on his lips, looked at the two people feeding each other in the distance, nodded and said: "Of course, my apprentice has such a good vision, so naturally he has great wisdom."

Time slipped forward before they knew it, and slowly, Ao Bing found that Nezha seemed to have something on his mind.

The usually noisy boy gradually became taciturn, as if he was restraining something, and he seemed to be holding back something, but he would never flirtatiously pull at Ao Bing again and again relying on his small stature as usual. Hug again.Nezha, who no longer intentionally pretends to be a child and innocent, looks a bit gloomy even though he still has a dumpling face.

Ao Bing couldn't help worrying if something happened to him, but Nezha seemed reckless and impulsive, but if he was determined to hide things, Ao Bing would not be able to pry his mouth away no matter what.

So no matter how worried Ao Bing was, he could only wait and wait for Nezha to tell him by himself.

he waited

That night, just as Ao Bing, who was tired all day, was about to go to bed, he saw his quilt was rolled up into a small ball. He tiptoed forward to pick up the quilt, and saw the little Nezha lying On his bed, looking at him expressionlessly.

Ao Bing couldn't help but looked at him a little strangely, wondering: "Why are you still awake so late? What do you want me to do?"

Nezha was silent for a while and said, "I want to sleep with you tonight."

Ao Bing nodded indifferently, yawned, took off his shirt in threes and fives, and said while getting on the bed: "My bed is not big, if it squeezes you, you can push it." I give it a hand."

Nezha was a bit dark, and his face became ugly at a speed visible to the naked eye: "...Are you so unavoidable when I am in front of you?"

Ao Bing was a little confused by this question, and he was really sleepy, his mind was a mess, so his reaction was half a beat slower than usual. He didn't notice Nezha's unfriendly expression, but He closed his eyes self-consciously, and replied vaguely: "Why don't I avoid suspicion with a child like you."

"Don't forget, we are the same age, and I was born a few hours earlier than you."

"Okay~" It was Ao Bing's usual tone of coaxing children, with a gentle tone and soft voice, he said gently: "Nezha is not a child, but a little brother, go to bed early, and get up to practice exercises tomorrow morning."

Hearing Nezha seemed to sneer, he said to him: "If I change my appearance and be taller and more majestic, won't you treat me with this attitude?"

Ao Bing's heart suddenly moved, thinking that Nezha had never grown up and felt inferior to his appearance?Or do you feel that you despise his appearance?Then there is a reasonable explanation for Nezha's actions these days. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sighed a long time, turned around in Nezha's direction, held his temper, and said to Nezha earnestly:

"It doesn't matter how skin is. Why do men need to judge beauty or ugliness by appearance? As long as you do things with a clear conscience, open and frank, like the sun and the moon, it is enough to convince people. You are already very good, I like it very much, I value you Because you and I are congenial, so what if you don’t grow up all your life? I will still regard you as my only friend.”

Nezha was very speechless to his diametrically opposed answers, and after a while he said quietly, "What are you talking about?"

Ao Bing looked at him in bewilderment: "Huh?"

Nezha turned his head to look at him, was silent for a while, and asked directly: "Ao Bing, have you ever liked someone, but you don't know whether that person likes you or not."

After Ao Bing figured out this tongue twister with his sleepy mind, he also fell silent.

His friend fell in love with someone else when he didn't know it, and he suddenly found out sadly that he didn't feel that well either.

Actually since when has it been like this?He couldn't explain it clearly, and it wasn't that important. After all, comforting this obviously emotionally hurt friend beside him was the key. What happened to him was really insignificant.

Although he doesn't know how to comfort his friends, he has comforted himself in the same state of mind as Nezha day after day.

So Ao Bing said something very interesting:

"It's yours, it's yours," he said.

Nezha sneered nonchalantly, and looked at him with serious and paranoid eyes: "It's not my master's, so why can't I snatch it by force?"

Ao Bing shook his head and said, "It's not yours, even if you grab it by force, it won't work."

So Nezha stopped making a sound, and just looked at him steadfastly, with deep eyes, like a bottomless pool of black water.Ao Bing regretted that he had said something wrong just now, and Nezha must be very upset that he was so negative for no reason, so he thought about it, and added another sentence in response to his state of mind:

"If you think of the worst outcome, you are not far from thinking through it. As long as you think about all the causes and effects, there will be no difficulties in the world."

Nezha stared at him for a long while, then suddenly chuckled: "Ao Bing, you..."

Ao Bing asked in confusion, "Me? What's wrong with me?"

But I heard Nezha simply turned over and buried his whole body under the quilt, and a dull voice came out from under the quilt: "It's nothing, I'm asleep."
