Chapter 145 Today violates the ancestral precepts of Fulong Temple
Chapter 145 Today I violated Fulong Guan’s ancestral precepts
One day, the heroine came back from the county government again.
"It's done this time! The magistrate said that we will pay a bounty in one month!" Wu Nuxia said, "Your method is indeed more effective for this kind of thing."
"Where's that one?"
"For lying in court and deceiving the superior, even if he wasn't caught, he would still have received dozens of slaps. But I thought he was quite evil, so I said a few nice words to him, and he got dozens of slaps less."
"The heroine has a kind heart."
Song You smiled and found it interesting.
A few days ago, she was the one who said she wanted to go out of the city with a knife to trouble people, and it was she who said she wanted to kill them. From the looks of it, if she really went there and a conflict broke out, she might actually be able to kill him. But today
She was also the one who spoke good words for him in court. If you take a closer look, there are many interesting things.
"There's nothing kind-hearted, I'm just too lazy to talk to him anymore. I also think about when I first came to Changjing, I also had crooked thoughts in my mind. I just said a few words casually and didn't spend any money."
"Has the heroine been put into practice back then?"
"Of course not, but I did think about it."
"It's human nature to think about it."
"Hehe, it means I'm smart."
"..." Song You shook his head, and then said, "The bounty was collected very slowly this time."
"There is no way. If we can catch the ghost and bring it to court, we can cash it in on the spot." Wu Nuxia sighed and couldn't help complaining, "I said it's actually not necessary. We are all old acquaintances. When I went there today,
The county magistrate already knows me, and old acquaintances don’t even have this little trust.”
"Trouble the heroine every time you work hard."
"Don't talk about this. You still have enough money for this month, right?"
"That should be enough."
"Okay, let's go."
After Wu Xia finished speaking, she turned around and left.
It's so simple.
Song You got up to see the guest off, but didn't move. After she left, he walked up to the second floor and took out all the money that Empress Sanhua had hidden in the mouse hole to see how much money was left.
Speaking of which, the nearby neighbors are also blessed by Sanhua Empress - since Sanhua Empress came here, especially after she started hiding money in the mouse hole, she was afraid that the rats would steal her money, so half of the nearby
The streets have become a restricted area for mice, so she has to walk a long way to catch mice every night, and she doesn't find it too hard.
"More than a thousand dollars..."
This month's rent payment has already been paid, but with his current relationship with the heroine, it doesn't hurt to postpone it for a while.
Prices in Changjing are very high, and the cost of living is much higher than that in Yidu. Song You himself is not engaged in agricultural production. There is no grain in the warehouse and no vegetables in the field. He has to buy everything. This more than a thousand dollars can be spent for a month, just days.
Maybe we need to live a tighter life and eat less meat.
However, in the past month or so, someone might occasionally come to ask me to exorcise evil spirits, or someone might come to Sanhua Empress to catch rats, so I could still make some money, which could be used to improve my life.
After thinking about it, the Taoist felt relaxed and without any worries in his heart. He just piled the money on the table, went downstairs, closed the door, and prepared to come back and take a nap.
When I came back, I saw that the money on the table was gone, but there was a little girl wearing three-color clothes in the room.
"Empress Sanhua is back."
"came back!"
"Where's the money on the table?"
"Sanhua Empress is hiding it." The little girl stared at him seriously, as if she was a little serious, "Why did you put it on the table? It might have been stolen."
"It's so easy to be stolen in broad daylight."
"You should spend less money and don't run out of money. If you don't eat mice, you will starve to death." The little girl expressed her concern to him.
"knew."
Song You felt funny in his heart, but he still accepted the little girl's teachings. However, he looked at her carefully and suddenly said: "Empress Sanhua seems to have grown a little taller."
"Grown a little taller!"
"I think."
"real?"
The little girl immediately became interested.
"Maybe."
"Maybe?"
"I haven't measured it before, but I can measure it now. I'll know when Sanhua Empress grows taller in the future."
Song You pulled the little girl to the wall. The little girl was very obedient. She leaned her back against the wall and let him make gestures on top of her head. She tried her best to turn her eyes upward to see the top of her head.
When she left the wall, there was already an engraving on the wooden wall.
"What's this?"
"Miss Sanhua is so tall now."
"So high~"
The little girl stared straight at the engraving.
"We will take another test in a few months and we will know whether Sanhua Empress is growing taller."
"How can Empress Sanhua grow taller?"
"You will grow taller when you grow up."
"But Sanhua Empress is already a big cat." The little girl couldn't help but tilt her head and stared at him with doubtful eyes.
"Everything in the world will be different as long as it becomes a spirit and attains the Tao." Song You thought for a while and patiently explained to her, "I once heard that some monsters have become spirits even though they have grown up.
You may still look like a little person in the future, and then you will slowly grow up."
"How can I grow up?"
"When your mind matures, you will grow up."
"Can't understand."
"You have to learn." Song You thought for a while and said to the little girl with a smile, "If you want to learn, you have to read and read. How about I teach Empress Sanhua how to read?"
"What's the use of reading?"
"You can read."
"I seem to have heard it somewhere."
"Empress Sanhua asked me before."
"Is reading fun?"
“I can’t say it’s fun, but some people find it interesting.”
"Someone!"
"Some people find it hard."
"Hard!"
"yes."
"..."
The little girl rolled her eyes a few times and changed the topic: "Will Sanhua Empress grow to be as big as a tiger in the future?"
"I seem to have heard it somewhere."
"Empress Sanhua asked you before."
"Then Sanhua Empress doesn't know the answer?"
"What if it changes!"
"Will not."
"Then what will Sanhua Empress be like when she grows up?"
"When you turn into a cat, you will probably be the same as before, but when you turn into a human, you will grow taller, as tall as the heroine next door, you will become mature and rational, you will slowly have your own ideas, and you will find more
If you follow your own hobbies and your own path, you will become bold and calm." Song You thought for a while, "You may be trapped by other things, or you may find true freedom."
"What's your own way?"
“It’s about what you want to do, what you don’t want to do, where you want to go, and where you don’t want to go.”
The little girl tilted her head and thought for a while after hearing this, and then said in detail: "Sanhua Empress does not need to go where she wants to go, Sanhua Empress can just follow you."
"Maybe we'll know later."
"Then will Empress Sanhua leave you?"
The little girl stared at him without blinking as he spoke, her expression almost the same as when she turned into a cat.
Song You couldn't help but smile.
When I first met her, I'm afraid she just wanted to walk with him for a while, and when the scent of incense dissipated from her body, she would go to a mountain to continue catching her own mice, and be at ease, right?
The Taoist smiled and replied:
"Perhaps, maybe not, but those are Empress Sanhua's own thoughts, and it will be a long time later."
"Can't understand."
"Do you want to learn to read?"
"Very hard."
"But it will get smarter."
"You will become smarter!"
"It will become even more powerful."
"It's going to be great!"
"Want it?"
"want!"
"That's a deal……"
The smile on the Taoist's face grew stronger and he said, "When I take a nap, I will buy a sand table, break off a section of willow branches, and teach Empress Sanhua how to read."
"Does it cost money?"
The little girl's expression suddenly became condensed.
The Taoist was a little speechless.
To be fair, I have been with her for so long and have never conveyed these thoughts to her, and I don't know how she became so frugal.
A good night's sleep will lead to magical days.
He took a handful of money and went out.
The sand tray is not expensive, it is just a square shallow tray.
There are plenty of them outside the sandy city, and willow branches can be broken downstairs.
That evening, the door downstairs was closed and the windows upstairs were wide open. Taking advantage of the dusk light, the Taoist smoothed the sand on the sand table, pinched the willow branches, and said to the little girl:
"Let's learn the first word first."
"good!"
The little girl stared at the sand table seriously, ready to go.
The Taoist drew three horizontal lines on the sand table: "This is 'three', three horizontal lines, three, the three of the Three Flower Empress."
"three."
"Is not it simple?"
“It’s easy!”
"Has Sanhua Empress remembered it?"
"Remember it!"
"good……"
So the Taoist stretched out his hand and touched it, and the loess and dust on the sand table suddenly became extremely smooth. Then he handed the willow branch to Empress Sanhua: "Empress Sanhua, come and try to write."
"Miss Sanhua, try to write it."
The little girl repeated in a low voice, took the willow branch from his hand, and carefully drew three strokes on the sand.
My posture when holding the pen is not good, but I can write neatly.
It is not much different from what Taoist wrote before.
Song You didn't immediately correct her problem with holding a pen. She didn't write a few words on the first day today, so she couldn't develop a habit. It wouldn't be too late to teach her how to hold a pen tomorrow. As for today, she has more important things to do.
.
"Sanhua Empress is really smart. I only taught Sanhua Empress once and she remembered it. Moreover, she wrote exactly the same as me. She not only has a photographic memory, but also has extraordinary talent. She is truly a peerless genius."
"!"
The little girl's expression was condensed and her breathing was stagnant.
"Since it only took a moment for Sanhua Empress to learn the word "三" in Sanhua Empress, let's learn a more complicated one next, how about learning Sanhua Empress's "花"?"
"good!"
The little girl held out the willow branch to him without hesitation.
So the Taoist took the willow branch again and wrote the word "花". While writing, he softly recited the order of the strokes of "花".
"This is the flower."
"flower!"
"Ms. Sanhua, do you remember it?"
"..."
This time the little girl came closer to the sand table, tilted her head to the right, looked from right to left, tilted her head to the left again, looked from left to right, looked at it carefully for a long time, and then said:
"remember."
"That……"
"Miss Sanhua, try writing it~"
The little girl took the initiative to take the willow branch from his hand, and with great seriousness, she solemnly wrote on the sand table.
The writing is slow, but every stroke is accurate.
The word "花" gradually takes shape.
"Um?"
Song You was a little surprised now.
The previous three characters only had three horizontal lines, which was already simple. What Sanhua Empress wrote was almost the same as what she had written, but the flower characters were much more difficult. However, what Sanhua Empress wrote was not only regular, but also looked good.
Very similar to what I wrote.
"Is it right?"
The little girl looked at him quietly and clenched her fists.
"That's right!" The Taoist opened his eyes wide, and he couldn't pretend to be surprised. "I didn't expect that Empress Sanhua could learn such a difficult word in one go. She is indeed a peerless genius."
Having said this, the Taoist showed hesitation:
"I originally thought of teaching Sanhua Empress all three words at once, but learning two words in one day is already the limit for ordinary people. Even if Sanhua Empress is smart, it will be much harder to learn. I'm afraid Sanhua is now
Empress, you already feel like you can’t hold it in your head, right? Besides, Empress Sanhua’s ‘em’ is more difficult than ‘three’ and ‘flower’. I’m afraid that Empress Sanhua won’t be able to learn it, why don’t we learn it another day?”
"Learn today!"
"ah?"
"It can fit!"
The little girl is thirsty for knowledge.
"That……"
The Taoist frowned, hesitated for a long time, and then made up his mind: "Okay! Sanhua Empress's talent and eagerness to learn are rare in my life. In this case, I will go against the ancestral precepts of Fulong Temple and learn from Sanhua Empress."
Make a special case!"
"OK!"
"Please also empress Sanhua, please do what you can. If you really can't continue learning, don't be brave and stop in time!"
"OK!"
"Look carefully..."
The willow branches moved across the sand table, and the sound was really soft, just like the evening breeze outside the window and the murmurs of passers-by on the street.
The Taoist writes seriously, and the girls also read it seriously.
Today is extremely leisurely, but it is not wasted.
