My plug-in is a fairy grass

Chapter 13 Tiezhu's Experience

"Brother Tie Zhu, how is your waist? Does it still hurt?"

"Fortunately, it doesn't hurt too much." Tie Zhu lifted up his clothes, revealing his lower back, where there was a circle of red marks, not too deep.After all, it was a child who threw the stone, so the damage caused was not great.

At this time, Yang Zhen and Tie Zhu were sitting on the big rock outside the Taoist temple, eating roast chicken and biting pancakes, drinking water with the evening wind blowing, and looking at the endless mountains in front of them, it was really pleasant Incomparable.

The group of beggars were knocked down by the two and abused by Yang Zhen again, begging for mercy and pleading guilty.After the two reprimanded and warned them, they let them support each other and went down the mountain crying.During the period, some beggars also said that the gate of the city was closed at this time, and there was nowhere to go after going down the mountain, so they begged to stay for one night.Before Tie Zhu could speak, Yang Zhen asked first:
"What would happen if we lost just now?"

So the two reached an agreement not to care about the life and death of these beggars!
……

"Brother Tie Zhu, how did you come to this Taoist temple, can you tell me?"

Yang Zhen wanted to ask this question when she just woke up, but she was not familiar with Tie Zhu at that time, so it was not easy to inquire.In the past two days now, the two have fought side by side twice. It can be said that they have a real friendship, so asking this question is much more logical.

"I used to be from Tianjia Village, not too far from here. There are many people with the surname Tian in our village..."

Tie Zhu leisurely told his story.

……

Two hundred miles away from here, there is a mountain village of more than 1000 people called Tianjia Village.This place already belongs to Xuanyang County on the other side of the Wei River.Four years ago in the summer, a plague of rats broke out near Tianjia Village. Countless rats, led by a group of demon rats, pounced on this mountain village.

These demon rats are exactly the kind of fire-breathing monsters that Grandma Chen once described to Yang Zhen, and the biggest one is even the size of a wild boar.There are no monks in Tianjiacun, only some mortal warriors, and Tie Zhu's father is one of them.In front of such a group of monsters, mortal martial artists have almost no resistance.In less than an hour, the village turned into a feast of monsters.

At that time, Tie Zhu was placed in a cellar with some children in the village, but this was of no use to the mice who were good at burrowing.It wasn't long before the demon rats found them, some of the children died, and some of the rest became lucky—the monks of Yunxiaozong finally arrived.

Suffering from such misfortune, Tianjia Village ceased to exist.As the last survivors, these children were sent to the Xuanyang County Government by the monks, and then arranged to go to some big households in the county.The older ones became slaves, and the younger ones were adopted as sons.

Tie Zhu was just ten years old that year, and was adopted as a foster son by a family surnamed Gu.There are several hundred members of the Gu family, which can only be regarded as a small family in Xuanyang County.However, this family is engaged in business, and the family assets are quite rich.Tie Zhu lived a comfortable life there.He has enough food every day, so he doesn't have to work much, and he is taught to read and write.It's just that he didn't like reading and didn't study hard.

But all of this ended in the spring of the second year...

"It was the Lantern Festival that day," Tie Zhu recalled: "On this day, a fairy came to the Gu family's house..."

After the immortal came to Gu's house.Tie Zhu, and five or six other children who were about his age—the children adopted by the Gu family were not only Tie Zhu, they all changed into new clothes, and led by the smiling Patriarch of the Gu family, they came to the immortal.But the owner's smile didn't last long.After the immortal looked at Tie Zhu and the others one by one, he sighed, shook his head and left.As soon as the immortal left, the Patriarch's expression changed immediately, and he cursed at Tie Zhu and the others for losing money, none of them lived up to expectations, they deserved to be poor all their lives, etc., and the new clothes they had just put on were stripped off.

From that day on, the situation of Tie Zhu and the others plummeted, and they lived a hard life of getting up earlier than chickens, sleeping later than dogs, eating worse than pigs, and working more than cows. Don't even think about it.Especially Tie Zhu, who is ugly and doesn't know a few words, and is rejected by the master's family, and being beaten and scolded has become a common occurrence.

"All of this is because we don't have spiritual roots, and we can't cultivate, so it's useless." Tie Zhu sighed a long time when he said this, with a somewhat depressed expression.

"Is that immortal here to inspect the spiritual root?" Yang Zhen asked.

"Ah."

The so-called where there is oppression, there is - run away!After living like this for half a year, Tie Zhu finally found an opportunity and ran away from Gu's house.He was lucky, secretly followed a caravan and came to the county town.Otherwise, in this wilderness haunted by monsters, a child like him would soon have no bones left.

Tie Zhu wandered in the county for a few days, and then met an old Taoist priest.This is a wild and unruly old Taoist priest with stains on his Taoist robe.At that time, he was walking and singing loudly as if no one was there, followed by some naughty children who threw bricks and rubble at him, but he ignored them.

But Tie Zhu felt that the song he sang was very interesting, like the slang of their village, so he followed the Taoist all the way to the present Taoist temple.

The old Taoist didn't chase him away either, and let Tie Zhu live in the Taoist temple.This Taoist temple is dedicated to the White Tiger God. It is said that it used to be a white tiger in Jushan, and later became a fairy. People here built this Taoist temple and asked him to bless him.Occasionally, someone would come to burn incense in the temple, leaving some incense money, and the old Taoist priest and he would use the money to buy some food...

"Sometimes the Taoist priest will go down the mountain to help people do rituals, get rid of monsters, and earn some money. Sometimes he will draw some talisman papers and sell them to the immortals in the county..."

"Do things? Eliminate demons? Draw talismans?" Yang Zhen asked in surprise, "Is this old Taoist priest also a monk?"

After listening to Grandma Chen's introduction, Yang Zhen sometimes referred to these immortals as monks.However, out of awe, the common people still used to call them immortals.

"of course."

"Really?" Yang Zhen became more energetic: "Our Taoist temple actually lived with people who cultivated immortals! What happened afterwards? Where did the Taoist priest go?"

"died."

"Dead?" Yang Zhen opened her mouth and straightened her body: "Killed?"

"Damned!" Tie Zhu was a little angry.

"I'm so old." Yang Zhen sat down again.

Both parents died, you met a mysterious old Taoist by chance, you were wild and uninhibited... Tie Zhu, your experience fits the template of the protagonist!

But why did this mysterious old Taoist who was supposed to be the mastermind behind the scenes die?
"Did the old Taoist leave anything behind, such as exercises, secret books or something?"

"No! Nothing! There were still some talisman papers, which were worth a lot of money, but he burned them all."

Speaking of this, Tie Zhu also had a look of displeasure.

"The old man wants to save face. He said that his time has come. In fact, I think he was bitten to death by a snake. He himself refuses to admit it..."
