Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Six Dragons
Only then did the ascetic understand that Lu was joking with himself, and said with a smile: "It's not that the poor monk doesn't want to say, but it's really time for you to rest, you are weak now, and you can't consume your vitality for a long time, otherwise the yin poison will be terrible." The rest of the story, the poor monk will continue to tell it tomorrow, okay?"
This great monk is casual and humble, but he is unwavering in what he should do. Although Lu Zheng still wanted to hear the next story, he had to go to sleep first.
After Lu Zheng fell asleep, he called "Tan Huazun, Xuan Miaotian" for a while, and called "Heavenly Demon and Earth Demon" for a while, and Zuihou called "Nine Brothers, Nine Brothers". The bonfire in the cave had been extinguished, but the jade pendant on his chest had begun to radiate brilliance again, helping him resist the yin poison.
The ascetic carefully inspected the condition in Lu Zheng's body, and found that the six air masses seemed to have expanded, and the brilliance emitted by the jade pendant was even more abundant, frowned, took off the monk's robe, covered Lu Zheng's body, and then returned to sit on the futon. He practiced asceticism and never slept endlessly, only meditating on the futon, while recuperating and pranayama, while guarding Lu Zheng, his mind remembered something.
After Lu Zheng fell asleep, he had a dream. In this dream, he and Tang Xiaojiu went to Qinglong Temple to steal money that night and there were no monsters, the two succeeded in stealing more than 20 taels of silver, and after saying goodbye to Mingkong, the two fled overnight. After many hardships and twists and turns along the way, he finally reached the northern border. Tang Xiaojiu took him to join the army, and the two became soldiers on the border of Huaxu State, and also participated in several battles with the barbarians. Tang Xiaojiu relied on his ingenuity and quickly became a squad leader, and Lu Zhengze was promoted by him to deputy captain and followed him.
Then, Lu Zheng dreamed that on a battlefield, he was wearing the military uniform of the deputy captain who was one size larger, with sleeves and trousers longer than his hands and feet, always dragging on the ground, rolled up seriously by him, and wearing a helmet that almost covered his eyes, carrying a military flag in his hand, and following behind Tang Xiaojiu. He complained annoyedly: "Brother Jiu, this military uniform is too big!"
Tang Xiaojiu was riding a white horse, holding a bright saber in his hand, and he was shouting loudly to the soldiers behind him, urging them to charge at those barbarians! And those barbarians were really as tall as the legend, and their eyes were really green fireballs. Dressed in animal skins and wielding huge sticks, they appeared on the battlefield in groups, screaming like cows, looking like a herd of big stupid elephants!
Tang Xiaojiu rode on the horse, looking complacent, looking at those giants with contempt in his eyes, and shouted loudly: "Brothers, follow the captain!" Lu Zheng rolled up his sleeves that were beyond the length of his hand, raised his helmet, waved the military flag in the air a few times, and shouted after Tang Xiaojiu: "Rush, follow the team leader!" rushed forward two steps, the hat on his head fell off to cover his vision, and the military flag didn't know what it was hooking, so he couldn't wave it.
Immediately, I heard Tang Xiaojiu scolding: "Lu Zheng, you are a pitfall, the military flag has poked the master's ass!" and then mixed with his scolding of other soldiers: "Silly hat, why do you have to fight with them, quickly poke their assholes with a spear!"
Lu Zheng hurriedly sorted out his clothes and helmets, waved the military flag again, and shouted: "Charge, charge with the team leader!" looked up, but found that he was no longer in the battlefield, surrounded by a vast white mist, and those soldiers and barbarians were gone. Lu Zheng was puzzled for a moment, and saw Tang Xiaojiu riding a white horse not far in front of him, waving a saber and rushing into a cloud of white mist, and hurriedly ran up with a military flag, shouting: "Ninth brother, ninth brother, wait for me, wait for me!"
But Tang Xiaojiu didn't stop, he used his saber to slam the white horse's buttocks, and shouted to Lu Zheng without looking back: "Lu Zheng, hurry up, Lu Zheng, hurry up!" Lu Zheng was behind, running out of breath, and saw Tang Xiaojiu riding a white horse and disappearing into the white mist, and shouted anxiously: "Ninth brother, ninth brother." While hurriedly chasing after him, he ran for a long, long time, but he never saw Tang Xiaojiu's shadow, but there was always the sound of kicking horses' hooves in his ears, and Tang Xiaojiu shouted with laughter: "Lu Zheng, hurry up, hurry up, Lu Zheng!"
Lu Zheng ran around in the white mist, throwing away the military uniforms and military flags that were in the way, but he couldn't find Tang Xiaojiu, he became impatient, he simply closed his eyes, followed the sound of horses' hooves in his ears and Tang Xiaojiu's voice, kept running, kept running, suddenly, stepped on his feet, fell into an abyss, and shouted out loudly in fear: "Brother Jiu, where are you!"
At this time, suddenly the surrounding fog dissipated, and six divine dragons appeared in front of him circling in the sky, roaring and roaring, and letting out bursts of dragon groans, which shocked Lu Zheng's mind. Lu Zheng was dizzy, and suddenly one of the largest golden dragons suddenly left the team and swooped towards Lu Zheng, opening his teeth and claws, the dragon's whiskers fluttering, his eyes staring at him, and his mouth actually shouted: "Lu Zheng!" Then a huge ball of fire spit out from his mouth, whistling into Lu Zheng's body.
Lu Zheng woke up screaming, only to find that it was just a dream, but the dream just now was so real, and Tang Xiaojiu's voice calling himself echoed in his mind. He turned his head to look around, and then remembered where he was, and suddenly saw that the futon was empty, and the ascetic was gone, and only he was left in the cave, and he chuckled in his heart, and hurriedly shouted: "Great monk, great monk, where are you? Where are you?"
screamed a few times, but there was no response, it seems that this ascetic must be gone, just like Tang Xiaojiu in the dream, he was in a hurry, tears welled up in his eyes, and he buried his head and cried sadly.
was crying sadly, someone in his ear called: "Little donor, what are you crying for?" Lu Zheng opened his eyes and saw that it was not an ascetic, so he immediately pounced, hugged his neck, and cried: "I thought you didn't care about me, left me and left, woo woo......"
The ascetic monk didn't know why for a while, and said, "The poor monk said that he would take you to a place that can cure the poison in your body, but now that it hasn't arrived, how can he leave you alone?"
Lu Zheng continued to cry: "Woo...... I woke up early in the morning, and I couldn't see you, you must be gone, don't want me anymore, don't care about me anymore. ”
The ascetic was a little stunned, and then smiled: "The poor monk is not here, you still hold the poor monk's neck!"
Lu Zheng reacted at this time, yes, isn't it good for the ascetic to stand here, and after a while, he quickly let go of the great monk, and couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. In fact, during this time, the ascetic took care of him patiently, ran around for him, and spoke gently, had no temper, was knowledgeable, and had very skills, and he didn't know how many thoughts had turned in his heart, and he felt that it was not bad to follow this great monk all the time, and he had already admired him, and faintly relied on him as a father.
He has been living since he was a child, he is used to seeing the cold, he is a child with many hearts, he just had a nightmare, and when he woke up, he didn't see the ascetic, and when he boarded, a feeling of abandonment suddenly came to his heart, and then he cried.
Let go of the ascetic, only to see the monk holding a verdant bamboo tube in his hand, there are water beads dripping down on it, it turned out that the ascetic was going to fetch water for himself, and saw that he was only wearing a single coat, not seeing the monk's robe, when he turned around, the monk's robe was on the haystack, rolled into a ball, and suddenly understood everything, Lu Zheng's heart was warm, and a basket of words turned in his mouth for a long time, but Zuihou just said: "Great monk, I thought you were gone, it turns out that you are going to get water!"
The ascetic guessed his thoughts, and ignored his child's temper, handed over the bamboo tube, and said with a smile: "Little brother, don't worry, the poor monk will do what he says, and he will not leave you." You drink some water, eat something, rest well, and then we're on our way. As he spoke, he handed over a steamed bun.
Lu Zheng took the bamboo tube, but didn't take the steamed bun, took out half of last night's steamed bun from his arms, and said, "Look, I still have it, you can eat this steamed bun!"
The ascetic still stuffed the steamed buns into his hand and said, "The steamed buns in your arms are hard, so let's eat this." Poor monks preach with asceticism, and the precepts are not allowed to eat. ”
Lu Zheng said curiously: "Great monk, do you really not eat?"
The dervish replied, "Neither eat nor sleep." ”
Lu Zheng bit the steamed bun and said, "Then you won't be hungry or tired?"
The ascetic monk folded his hands and recited the Buddha's name: "All desires are suffering!" The poor monk is devout to the Buddha, practicing asceticism diligently, blessed by the power of the Buddhas, eating and sleeping like demons, naturally subduing and liberating all desires. ”
Every time the ascetic said these words, Lu Zheng didn't understand it, but he felt that the ascetic was very powerful, so he didn't ask in detail, drank water and ate half a steamed bun, and the rest was stuffed into his arms with half of yesterday's steamed bun and put it away.
After the ascetic put on his monk's robes, he had been meditating and chanting on the side, and when Lu Zheng had finished eating, he also happened to stand up, took the wooden shelf on the side, and said, "It's time for us to go on the road." ”
Lu Zhengdao: "Great monk, I don't feel tired now, it seems that I can walk for a while, or when I am tired, you can carry me again." ”
The dervishew thought for a moment and said, "It's fine." Still carrying the wooden frame on his back, he took his hand, and the two walked out of the cave together.
At this time, it was not long after sunrise, and the two of them were on the top of the mountain, out of the cave, and saw a round of red sun, between heaven and earth, like a red pill, the breeze was blowing, which was refreshing. Lu Zheng was agitated by the cold wind, and couldn't help sneezing, the snake venom in him was originally cold, and he was the least tolerant of cold, and at this time, he couldn't help but feel a little cold in his heart.
At this time, a heat came from the palm of the ascetic's hand, and after a while, it traveled all over Lu Zheng's body, and suddenly the cold in the meridians was dispelled, and the limbs were warm. Suddenly, Lu Zheng felt that the cold wind blowing on his face was not uncomfortable, but a little comfortable, like a spring breeze.
The two of them were still moving forward on the mountains of these two realms, Lu Zheng looked at the strange mountain that was winding away, remembering the story that the dervishes said yesterday, and in an instant, it seemed that the scene of the shemale battle appeared in front of him, and his heart moved, and said: "Great monk, I know, when those ten villain monsters surrounded Tan Huazun and Xuan Miaotian, it must be the amazing person who planted the fence that the great monk said came to defeat the monsters and save them!"
