Yizhi arrives

Chapter 6 We Call It Fate

Lvyi City is very lively today, looking around are all the delicate little girls like A Piao, wearing peach red willow green as if spring has come.But now it has not even passed the year, I shivered in the cold wind, slightly surprised, could it be that I forgot some festival related to women?
The female storyteller who was telling the story in the Taozui Building just happened to come across. She was wearing a snow-white cloak, she kept a fan in her hand, her hair was tied up like a man's, and she was very heroic. She was about her early twenties.When she saw A Piao and me, she raised her eyebrows, looking very interested.Looking at her expression, I gave her a chance to strike up a conversation and asked her: "Mr., what day is it today, why is it so lively?"

She was similar to Jianghu Bai Xiaosheng, she shook her fan, and immediately replied: "Little sister, don't you know? The servant Yushi, who was drafted in the morning, came to our Green City, and is currently competing with the county magistrate in the yamen. A list of 13-year-old girls." She spun around me and A Piao as she spoke, smiling brightly, "I see you are both about 13 years old, right?"

There were two blushes on Ah Piao's face, she lowered her head and did not answer.I was used to being cheeky, and when I smelled the faint weasel smell on the female storyteller, I denied it: "Unfortunately, I haven't reached that age yet, it's just that I have a precocious face." After that, I cupped my hands and planned to part ways with her.

When I passed by, the nondescript female storyteller suddenly asked me: "How is Boss Ji?"

I turned my head to look at her again, and sure enough this month's NO.15 was winking at Ji Yue while telling a story!It's just that the master seems to like the enchanting woman with the water snake waist and fat buttocks. Although the facial features in front of him are quite good, he is not the type that the master will like, so he sighed, "Master is very busy."

She didn't say much, the corner of her mouth hooked up, as if she knew what he was up to, she left with a fan.Do you think it is necessary for her to tell me a nonsense to prove her own omniscience? !On the other hand, Ah Piao was more gossip than I was, turning her head every three steps to see the storyteller's back, looking very interested in her.

I wondered: "Do you like her mouth?"

Ah Piao shuddered and said angrily, "Sister Mi, did you see the pattern on that person's fan just now?"

Ok?
Every time I see a female storyteller in Tao Zui Lou, the fan in her hand has never been changed, with a white face and peach bones, but there is a black circular pattern drawn in the middle of the fan, which is similar to the evil-suppressing patterns on the roof tiles. It looks so big, with complicated patterns on the outside, and there is a shadow of a beast hidden inside. It is impossible to tell what kind of beast it is, and it is stepping on a lotus flower.Because the appearance is quite special, but I remember it very clearly.

"what happened?"

I originally thought that the pretentious people in the world like to make some unique things to show off.

But A Piao said, "This is the picture of rebirth of Jiao Jiao stepping on the lotus. It is usually engraved on the coffin of the most vicious person who died unjustly."

Oh... that black beast is called Jiao.

Sure enough, it is very unique, but how to write the word "猰貐"?
She saw that I was confused and didn't find the point at all, so she explained to me in a very understanding way: "It is said that this Jiaojiao was a god in the past, but he was killed by another god. He was resurrected by the water, but after it stepped on a lotus flower in the weak water, it became a man-eating beast and was killed for the second time. We will prepare one or two engraved coffins in the store. The coffin of this beast, sister, you also understand, it is inevitable that some people who should not die die, it is very fierce, and we can only overcome poison with poison..."

I finally found Bei, trembled all over, and answered: "Dare you think that female storyteller was transformed by a ghost?!"

"..."

Maybe it was because the topic we were talking about was too gloomy. I was about to pass the corner of the intersection, and someone passed by at a [-]-degree position.

Afterwards I will call it destiny.

"Female benefactor, are you okay?" The spring breeze turned into rain and asked, blowing directly into the soft heart.

The sight is a bald head, the eyes and nose together are really more beautiful than Guanyin, and there is compassion hidden in the eyes. The man is wearing a golden cassock, and four words emerge from the mind unconsciously—— A monk who has attained enlightenment.

It's just that this monk is so young that people can't believe that he is an eminent monk.Could it be that he has obtained Buddhism and is a god?I am delusional.

The sudden appearance of this fairy-like monk seemed so incompatible with the previous topic between me and A Piao.

At this moment, I could feel that Ah Piao was pulling my sleeve desperately beside me, probably the expression on my face at this moment was too unsightly.But I really can't clean up my own face, seeing that there are clusters of golden lights behind the little monk.

Brilliant, dazzling, mind-blowing, soul-stirring.

"Monk..." Have we met somewhere? !

I haven't uttered my vulgar strike-up words yet. Unexpectedly, a big fat man appeared behind him, dressed in an official uniform. He was the well-known magistrate of Luyi City, known as Fat Zhixian. He pointed at my nose He scolded: "Whose girl, is there any rules? What kind of monk is not a monk, this is the servant Yushi who is here to draft girls this time!"

......=^=
Have you ever seen a monk come to choose a wife for the emperor? !
You haven't seen it, so you can't understand the turmoil in my heart after hearing what Fat Zhixian said.

A group of girls in pink and willow green on the street heard the magistrate's lion's roar, and suddenly swarmed to my side, half-hid their little faces with a handkerchief, and sneaked a peek at the monk pretending to be shy.

I couldn't help but slander, you little goblins, I don't know if you are shy about being a draft girl or shy about thinking about monks.The customs of the Great Zhou Dynasty have been opened up to the point where I can't bear it. The one in the palace, don't you care about your daughters-in-law? !

After a long, long time, I passed by and spit out a lie again to the monk: "The monk serves the censor, I am not yet 13 years old this year." possible!
There is no such thing as 300 taels of silver here.

But this good-looking and compassionate monk didn't even twitch his brows. He just nodded and accepted my words with a calm expression and a smile.I was so hurt by his too pure smile that my heart was pierced many times, and I said sorry to the Buddha while bleeding.

"Master Rukong, it's getting late. The meditation room on Xiangshan Temple has been prepared. You can start working tomorrow after you rest early." Fat Zhixian asked the yamen servants behind him to disperse the surrounding crowd, and flatteringly asked the monk to leave.Ah, it turns out that his name is Rukong, form is emptiness, and emptiness is form!The county magistrate probably disliked me for being so close, especially for being in the way, so he pushed me away with a little more force, "Hey, I was not in a hurry, I sprained my foot, and I was about to twist to the ground.

Zhixian, you are too wicked!

Just as I was trying to grab Ah Piao randomly to save the situation, it was too late and then soon, an arm lifted my arm steadily, and put my body's center of gravity back to the right place, just in time the wind caught the fragrance around the Buddha Into the nose, smelling refreshed immediately.

Ah Piao later said that it was just freshly baked sesame seed cakes from the sesame seed shop next door, of course I didn't believe it!
All of Rukong's movements were just right, he let go of my arm, and said: "The benefactor, be careful." I'm not used to seriousness, but I have to seriously say something for him right now. In other words, Rukong is as defiant as his dharma name, and all living beings are roughly the same as him, and there is no distinction between male and female, beauty and ugliness at all.

Who the hell taught him to be like this? !

It's even worse than Ji Yue.

After he finished speaking, he nodded and bid farewell to me. It was A Piao who desperately held me back, so I didn't go to Xiangshan Temple with him.

After this chance encounter, everyone in Luyi City knew about this special censor, and you should never underestimate the common people's ability to catch gossip, that's why I wandered back to Yushihang with Apiao in a state of uncertainty, On the way, I heard other people revealing Master Rukong's old background.

They said that Rukong is the closed disciple of master Fangyuan, he is only 17 years old this year, he is the son of a famous family, but the fortune teller said that this child is destined to be robbed, if he does not leave home, he will not live to be 25 years old.You said that in this world, how many stories are there that threaten to live beyond the age of 25?It must have been about 5000 years, but the old man actually believed it and sent Hao Duanduan's son to Xiangguo Temple. Master Fangyuan said he had the root of wisdom and accepted him as a closed disciple.

It's rare for me to be clear-headed, and I silently turned around and typed up a draft. Is this a coincidence?In the Yizhi decree half a year ago, what Master Fangyuan said to the former Empress Dowager about Qiyuan Xie Xingjun and the Empress, this time a monk was sent here, and he was also Master Fangyuan's closed disciple. How could there be such a coincidence?There is also a basis for the official explanation. The words of the year were released by Master Fang Yuan. Of course, it is the turn of Master Fang Yuan to find the queen.

It's just that it's very strange to run together like this, why does the queen need to find it?
It's like catching Jiangyang robbers...

But it's none of my business.

Jiang Jiang walked to the gate of Yushi Store, bumped into Ji Yue and was about to go out, Apiao Lima raised his own eyes and shouted: "Master Chicken!"

Ji Yue didn't even look at her, and said to me: "Don't go out in the next few days. If someone from the yamen comes to ask your age, don't tell the truth." His words won my heart, and I also Not wanting to tell the truth, nodding his head like pounding garlic, it's rare to be so obedient.Ji Yue paused, didn't go directly, seemed to think of something again, looked at me but pointed his finger accurately at A Piao, this time he didn't say anything, just moved the index finger pointing at A Piao back and forth.

But based on the tacit understanding that Ji Yue and I have cultivated in the past few years, if I guess correctly, he is saying: If something happens, use A Piao to block the arrow.

"Master, please rest assured." I nodded and accepted his idea.

He looked at me like a big bad wolf, his serious and handsome face relaxed slightly, he flung his sleeves back, and went out.

I looked at his back, and my thoughts drifted far away again.

When I was young, I lived with Ji Yue without a fixed place, and the mountains and forests were cold and poisonous, so it was inevitable that I would get sick. Every time he would find a few cool pills from the bag and stuff them in my mouth.He never asked: "What's wrong? Is it better after taking the medicine?" Ji Yue is not a caring person, even if I cried uncomfortably in the middle of the night, he would not open his eyes to take a look.

I thought I was smart enough to classify him as: at the beginning of a person, he was sexually frigid.

At that time, I especially missed Kou Yuan and Zhao Xiaocong. Although they were also wicked, they still loved me.You have to know that girls are no better than boys, and girls always hope that people around them will treat her as a princess, even if she knows in her heart that she is just a wild flower.For this reason, I also made a fuss, and Ji Yue took me back without any difficulty, so I quarreled with him:
"I want to sever the master-student relationship with you! I'm going to find Kou Yuan and Zhao Xiaocong!"

"..." Ji Yue didn't like me.

"You are the worst master in the world, woo woo woo!"

"..." Ji Yue still doesn't like me.

"Ji Yue, I curse you for not being able to marry a daughter-in-law! Not having a son!"

"..." Ji Yue threw me into the room, locked the door, and didn't care about my curse at all.

When I cursed him, I didn't think of an idiom called "a word makes a prophecy".

And when he grew up, he was forced by Ji Yue to strengthen his body, and he fell ill less often. Unfortunately, he woke up one day and found that he woke up in the wrong way, so he got up and went to the medicine box to take the medicine silently. What to do.Oh, and the bad habit of me liking to take advantage of other people's quilts to keep warm was also forced by Ji Yuejian to get rid of it, even though every night in the middle of winter is still really cold.

I don't want to say good things to Ji Yue, but in these years, he has indeed taught me how to be independent and tenacious in a cruel way.Live well, even if everyone leaves you, even if the loneliness is like an eternal night, there will still be stars shining with hope.

But just now, he said to me, if people from the yamen come to check my age, don't tell the truth, isn't that the subtext, he still cares about me, a worthless apprentice?Don't want me to be seized as a vase in the palace?Oh, dig a little deeper. Although he didn't praise me for being good-looking, he subconsciously felt that I could be selected as a show girl, so he still praised me for something, right? (Ji Yue: Please don't be smug! Enough is enough!)
