After picking up the daughter of the lucky star, the whole village prospered

The Taoist temple is on the mountain, and the road is not easy to walk because of the snow.

Yingbao refused to go after walking for a while, and sat under a tree by the roadside without moving her nest.

She didn't want to eat any glutinous rice balls at all, she just wanted to go home, then curl up in the warm cotton blanket and listen to her brothers' recitation.

Seeing that the dog-headed Jin refused to leave, Brother Kui had no choice but to come and carry her, but felt too tired to carry her, so he simply carried her on his back.

Ying Bao felt relieved, lying on Brother Kui's back and looking around.

A lot of people have already come to the entrance of the Taoist temple, and they are all here to deliver the fasting sacrifice.

I saw the believers put bags of food in front of the statue of Taishang Laojun, burning incense and praying.

Looking at the sacrifices, Brother Kui couldn't help swallowing.

There are glutinous rice balls, steamed buns and pastries, as well as whole chicken and fish.

Among them, chicken and fish will be taken back by worshippers, but scattered glutinous rice dumplings and pastries and steamed buns will not be taken away.

Brother Kui put Yingbao down, pushed her, and asked her to go forward to pick up the sacrifices that people didn't want.

Yingbao had no choice but to step forward, look left and right, and ran to the altar to pick up the steamed buns and pastries that had been dropped after the worship.

After the first wave of worship, the worshipers will take away their offerings, and then there will be a second wave of people to put them on.

During this period, scattered pastries will fall on the ground and no one will pay attention to them.

It was not a coincidence that Yingbao came, and there were other children picking it up next to her, so she had to wait beside her.

People lined up to wait for the sacrifice, and talked together in twos and threes.

Suddenly, a person in Taoist robes caught Ying Bao's attention in the crowd.

This man is in his thirties, wears a black headdress, has a handsome and kind face, and has a short beard on his chin, but there is a bulge the size of an egg on his neck, even though it is covered with a cloth scarf, Yingbao's sharp eyes can still be seen.

What caught her attention was not the bulge on his neck, but the big oily gourd slung across his shoulders.

There is also a five-color silk sash tied around the gourd's thin waist, with a tassel hanging from the end of the sash, and a few small jade beads knotted on the tassel.

It is obvious that this gourd is very popular with its owner if it can be decorated so delicately.

This is... Wu Daozi?

Wu Daozi, the gourd idiot who had met several times in his previous life, did not expect him to look like this when he was young.

If it wasn't for the big gourd he was carrying, Yingbao wouldn't have recognized him.

I think that when I met this person for the first time, he was already quite down and out, his hair was about to fall out, he was as thin as a bone, and the tumor on his neck was as big as a melon, and his head was pushed aside.

But this person is very talented, not only can he write good calligraphy, but also can play the piano and dance swords. It is said that he won the imperial examination when he was in his 20s.

But for some reason, he became a wandering Taoist priest, walking around the rivers and lakes with a big gourd on his back all day to treat people, and he is known as the gourd doctor.

I don't know if it's the genius doctor Yingbao, because he didn't cure the big tumor on his own neck.

However, this person honors his promises, is loyal, and is willing to do good deeds. When encountering those poor people who ask for a doctor, he even gives them money to buy medicines.

I didn't expect that I was so lucky to meet the young Wu Daozi here and now.

Yingbao was secretly pleasantly surprised, and walked up to strike up a conversation: "Uncle, your gourd is so beautiful, and I have a lot of this kind of gourd at home."

Wu Daozi took a look at her and saw that she was a little beggar, so he didn't take her words seriously.

Seeing that he ignored her, Ying Bao took another step forward and continued: "I really have this kind of gourd in my house, it's much bigger than yours, it's so big."

She gestured with her arms open.

Wu Daozi finally asked, "Where is your home?"

"My home is in Chuanhe Town, Qinchuan County." Seeing that Yingbao caught his attention, she smiled and said, "Our village says that the gourds in my house are gifts from gods, and touching them can bring good luck."

"Oh?" Wu Daozi smiled: "Then why didn't it bring you good luck?"

Ying Bao's face darkened, and she argued: "Because I met a bad person, she stole me and brought me here."

Wu Daozi looked at the little baby and asked, "Is what you said true?"

"Yeah." Ying Bao nodded, "Whoever tells lies is a rat."

Wu Daozi smiled and said, "I'm asking about your gourd."

Yingbao couldn't hold back his smile, and immediately said: "My family's gourd is also real. If you don't believe me, go to Simen Town, Qinchuan County. There is a cloth village owner who bought my family's big gourd for 30 taels of silver. Put it in the shop and store it."

Wu Daozi was thoughtful: "Really?"

"Really, really." Yingbao looked around and said in a low voice, "If uncle doesn't believe me, I can take you there."

Before Wu Daozi could answer, Brother Kui suddenly came over, his face was very ugly, he picked up Yingbao and walked out.

Yingbao struggled for a few times, but seeing that she couldn't break free, she looked at Wu Daozi with pitiful eyes and tried her best to squeeze out tears.

Sure enough, Wu Daozi followed.

"Little friend, please wait a moment." He quickly caught up with Brother Kui: "Who are you? Put this child down first, I still have something to say."

Brother Kui looked at him vigilantly, and said coldly, "What are you doing? She's my sister!"

Wu Daozi hesitated when he heard this.

Ying Bao struggled hard and shook her head desperately: "No, I'm not his sister, uncle save me."

Wu Daozi frowned, stepped forward to block the young man's path, and still said kindly: "Little friend, why don't you let her come down and talk slowly, whether it's your sister who asked her to talk."

Brother Kui was annoyed, and said sharply, "Midget your own business! Get lost! Otherwise, I want you to look good!"

Wu Daozi did not give in: "Young man, if this child is really your sister, I will not say anything, but she is clearly not..."

"I'll say it again, get out!" Brother Kui said viciously: "She is mine, not my sister, but I picked it up first! Follow me from now on!"

Wu Daozi: ...

Ying Bao was furious, and bit his neck hard.

Brother Kui was in pain, and quickly tore her off and threw her on the ground.

Ying Bao quickly got up from the ground and rushed to Wu Daozi, "Uncle, help!"

Wu Daozi also reacted very quickly, holding Yingbao behind him, and said to Brother Kui who was chasing him: "I know the head of the county yamen, if my friend dares to act rashly, I will take you to the county yamen to reason."

At this time, someone nearby noticed the situation and came over to check.

Someone also said: "Isn't this the beggar on the front street? What's going on? Did he want to hurt someone?"

"If you dare to hurt someone, send him to the county government!"

As expected, Brother Kui became apprehensive, took a few steps back, stared at Ying Bao fiercely, turned and left.

Seeing the young beggar leave, Wu Daozi squatted down and asked Ying Bao: "Now tell me the truth, where exactly is your family, and how did you get here?"

Yingbao really cried this time, sobbing and telling the whole story, and finally said: "I want to go home, can Uncle take me back? My parents will definitely repay you and give you gourd seeds. My family's gourds have grown so big, I will give them to you in the future."

Wu Daozi smiled and said, "It happens that I'm going to Qinchuan County too, why don't I take you along."

"Okay!" Yingbao smiled through tears and asked, "Uncle, what's your name, and where is your hometown? Later, my parents will go to your house to thank you."

Wu Daozi touched Yingbao's head and said with a smile: "My surname is Wu, and my hometown is far away from here. I'm afraid your parents won't be able to go."
