Chapter 46 The Bell for the Suppression of Evil Spirits
Ma Chengfeng followed her with his head weakly, the rabbit didn't eat it, but he became a coolie, and he already held a lot of 'flowers' and 'flowers' green things in his arms, including food, clothing, play, and even children's 'waves' drums.
"Cheng Feng, it's so pitiful to have a child......" There was a little man squatting on the road called 'Hua', the child's face was dirty, and his clothes were also patched and patched. There is a small porcelain bowl with a notch in front of him, don't look at the stubble of the porcelain bowl, but the two big goldfish on it are particularly beautiful, and I don't know where he picked them up.
"Buy, buy, buy!" Ma Chengfeng agreed without thinking about it.
"Wow...... Your age is terrifying...... This...... Can you buy this too? Hu Xiaoxi thought that Ma Chengfeng was serious, so he stepped forward and stretched out his hand to drag the little 'flower'.
Ma Chengfeng was holding a lot of things in both hands, all of which were piled up in his eyebrows, where could he see what she was talking about? I had no choice but to throw away a new dress she bought and take a closer look......
"Auntie's 'milk' 'milk'! This...... I can't buy this! "He almost cried." Are we good foxes, good foxes who are good at cultivating, don't we eat people? ”
She looked at the poor little 'flower' with pity, 'touched' his dirty little face, and gave all the snacks she bought along the way. "Brother, these are all for you, is it okay for your sister to give this bowl of yours?"
The child is five or six years old. In those years, it was not like now, beggars were pure beggars, and children could exchange their rice bowls for so many delicious food, so they were naturally happy like 'flowers', and they picked up the broken porcelain bowl with stubble and handed it to Hu Xiaoci.
Hu Xiaoxi held it in the palm of his hand like a treasure, and ran away with a twist.
"Huh? Hu Xiaoci? Are you stupid? You give me back! Buy and buy, but it's not as hoho as you, right? Are you when my money is blown by the wind? Look at how much money you've 'spent' today? Ended up with a broken bowl? The angry Ma Chengfeng rushed up to reason with her.
Even if the bowl with stubble is good, it can't be used. The bowl is not only filled with food, but also symbolizes wealth. This is also a kind of culture, for example, you can't break the rice bowl during the New Year, and if you break it, you can quickly say "the year is safe" to take an auspicious. If you fall stubble, you can't ask for it. In the old days, I paid more attention to it, and I wanted to eat and beg on the street, and this bowl had to fall off, and if you had a new bowl, no one would want to give it.
"You don't understand, I dare to say that this bowl is older than me, I don't believe you sell it and try it, you can make everyone money, but you can't sell it, it's a baby, you smell it carefully." The little fox fairy put the broken porcelain bowl with stubble in front of Ma Chengfeng's nose and shook it.
Ma Chengfeng's nose has a very keen sense of smell, and he vaguely smells that there seems to be the smell of incense ash in the temple in this bowl. But even if it's an old product, it's already stubble, and it definitely won't sell at a good price.
"Cheng Feng, you keep it first, this treasure may be used in the future." Hu Xiaoxi put it in his bag.
There was no class in the afternoon, and Ma Chengfeng took her around the streets and alleys of Rehe. Don't look at her like to join in the fun, but there is one point, Rehe is an ancient cultural city, and there are many big temples and small temples in the city, but wherever there are temples, Hu Xiaoci will avoid it, and dare not approach.
Ma Chengfeng went to the market to buy two rabbits for her, these two rabbits were 'fat' and white, and Hu Xiaoci drooled when she saw it. He wanted to find an old chef in a big restaurant to stew it, but Hu Xiaoci said that it was not delicious if it was cooked. He followed Hu Xiaoxi to a deep alley, and saw that there was no one else in the alley. Hu Xiaoci picked up the rabbit and approached her mouth, sniffed with her nose, and she enjoyed it. The rabbit twitched all over, and kicked its legs with a snap, and within ten seconds it was not moving. Hu Xiaoxi threw it to the side and continued to replace the next one.
"You...... That's how you eat? It's the first time I've seen this way of eating! Ma Chengfeng was a little surprised.
Her expressions and movements were just like those black jokes that old people told their children. To worship ghosts and gods, offerings are placed on the offering table at home, and when the ghosts and gods come, they will suck out the 'essence' in the food. The offerings were still left on the table in good shape, and ordinary people couldn't see any difference. But if you want to eat an offering again, biting into your mouth is often like chewing on it.
Boom...... Knock Knock...... Knock knock knock...... At this time, there was a temple nearby, and there was a dull bell ringing from the temple, and it was three o'clock in the afternoon.
As soon as the bell rang, Hu Xiaoli immediately covered his ears and squatted down. His face was flushed, and he was breathing hard with his mouth slightly open, as if in pain.
"Quick...... Take me away!! She leaned on Ma Chengfeng's arms in pain and trembled, her delicate little face full of fear.
"Fox, are you sick? Do fox 'spirits' also catch a cold? Do you want to see a doctor? ”
"Nope! This bell ...... I can't hear it! ”
Ma Chengfeng turned his head and glanced in the direction of the old temple, which is called the Temple of Putuo Zongcheng, which is in the summer resort. It is old, rich in religious atmosphere, and is known as the Little Potala Palace. Although the little fox fairy has been cultivated into a human form, he is always a demon 'elf'. The Buddhism in the old temple is profound, so that her, the demon 'elf', can't get close.
He helped Hu Xiaoci back to school, and Hu Xiaoci finally regained his bloody face and shivered beautifully.
"Be honest, I'm telling you, I'm not at school these days, you'd better not get into trouble, don't you hear? Beware of coming back, I'll send you to the temple. Ma Chengfeng scared her.
Don't look at Hu Xiaoci as a fox 'essence' who has been practicing Taoism for 500 years, but she has a simple mind, and sometimes she is as cute as a little girl. It's best not to beat around the bush when talking to her, she doesn't understand. Sometimes your words of persuasion are better than scaring her like this.
"Huh? I'm not going! You are not allowed to go! She pouted.
"I'm a human, not a demon, why can't I go?"
"You really can't go to the old temple of Childe, there is an old monk there who is very powerful, I can feel the breath on his body dozens of miles away, his aura is contrary to Childe, it is Childe's life nemesis!" The little fox fairy said to him seriously, and that expression didn't seem like a joke.
Ma Chengfeng was confused and didn't take it seriously. He told the little fox fairy that he has to go out to the 'door' in the past few days, you can't follow me, you have to stay in school and take good care of Chang Xiaoman. If you behave well, I'll buy you something delicious when I come back.
With Hu Xiaoci, Chang Xiaoman is much safer. At night, she still lives in 404, and she has a soft spot for this dormitory, because there are no 'girl' children living on the fourth floor now. In the second half of the night, Hu Xiaoxi was going to absorb the breath of the moon to practice. And Chang Xiaoman happens to be a moon worshipper, so he has long been accustomed to this.
