Chapter 2 A wanderer travels to the end of the world, loving relatives lean on the door of the hall
Xiaochong suddenly had an impulse, knelt on the ground, and shouted: "Mom, let's go together! I always feel that the village is not very safe, and I am worried that something will happen to my mother."
The mother smiled and said: "What nonsense is this child talking about? This is our old house, and the ancestral hall of our ancestors is here. Where can my mother leave?"
He tried hard to persuade her, but when her mother refused to listen and had nothing to say, he could only kneel down and kowtow twice, and bid farewell to her.
Children's attachment to their mother is innate, and now they have to be separated from their mother. Xiaochong is young and doesn't quite understand what sadness is. He just has a vague feeling that he is afraid that he will not be able to see his mother for a long time.
I feel very sad in my heart.
Ever since something happened last time and someone captured her son in the house, Wang Chong's mother has been worried about it, otherwise she wouldn't have sent her darling child to study in a foreign country.
She was a very decisive woman. Once she made up her mind, she took her son's hand and took him to the backyard without any delay.
The carriage, transportation, packages, as well as personal maids and bookboys have all been prepared long ago, and even the driver who drives the carriage is a well-chosen old man.
Poems and books have been passed down from generation to generation in the Wang family. Wang Chong's father was an official in the court. The family had hundreds of acres of fertile land, more than a hundred servants and maids, and a household of more than 100 people. In normal times, life was quite prosperous.
Wang Chong's mother was worried about her children, so she sent Uncle Wang, the most powerful family member in the family, to her son. The sixth son was Uncle Wang's youngest son. Both father and son were servants of the Wang family. They had served the family for several generations and were the most reliable.
Although Xiaochong was unwilling to leave his mother, he also knew that her mother had the most stubborn temper and would not disobey her. He said goodbye to his mother with tears in his eyes, got into the carriage, and hurriedly hit the road while it was still early.
Uncle Wang knew that his mistress was worried about the young master's safety, so he drove the carriage in a hurry along the way, hoping to reach the town where he was staying before it got dark.
There were three masters and servants in the carriage, Liuzi was fine, and Xiaochong was able to hold on with all his support. On the contrary, Yueyaer's pretty face turned pale, and she felt like she was shaken by the jolt, but she didn't dare to move, so she could only hold back forcibly.
How uncomfortable.
Yue Ya'er was originally Wang Chong's mother's maid. The little girl had delicate features and was a little beauty. Wang Chong's mother liked this little maid very much, and she was her son's default concubine. Once he grew up, she would make the final decision to consummate their marriage.
If he hadn't been worried that his son was away from home and had no one to take care of him, he wouldn't have pointed it out to Xiao Chong so early.
Xiao Chong saw Yue Ya'er's face turning pale, took a silk scarf from his sleeve and handed it over, whispering: "Sister Yue Ya'er, if you feel uncomfortable, just vomit on this silk scarf."
Yue Ya'er was about to refuse, but couldn't bear it any longer and spat it out with a loud sound.
Xiao Chong opened the silk scarf without missing a single trace, wrapped up the dirt, and threw it out of the car. He took out another silk scarf from his sleeve, asked Liu Zi to open the water bottle, dipped some water and handed it to Yue Ya.
Son.
Yue Ya'er wiped her mouth, then she felt better, and said with a shy face: "Yue Ya'er failed to live up to expectations and caused trouble to the young master again."
Xiaochong smiled and gave up, without any sweet words to coax the little maid. He had studied etiquette since he was a child, and had been taught by his mother, so although he was very affectionate towards Yueya'er, he didn't think anything wrong about her.
Don't dare to be overly enthusiastic.
Yue Yaer vomited it out and felt better. She drank a few more sips of water. Just as she was about to ask when she could arrive at the town where she would stay, suddenly the horse pulling the carriage neighed and the carriage shook suddenly, almost throwing the little girl out.
When they got out of the car, Xiaochong gave her a hand, and then Yue Yaer could sit firmly.
Without his young master saying anything, Liuzi opened the door curtain, took a look outside, quickly pulled back, and whispered: "We seem to have encountered a robber."
Xiaochong was slightly shocked. He had read a lot. He usually looked dull, but his mind was very clear. He knew that he was really being robbed and hiding in the car was useless. He got up and opened the door curtain and went outside the car.
Uncle Wang didn't know what to say at this moment, and he was trembling with fear. If he encountered a strong man who robbed him, Uncle Wang had traveled all over the country, and he was quite knowledgeable, so he would never be afraid like this.
Xiao Chong stood up in the car and looked forward, but where was the thief? He saw a monster with black hair all over his body and his bones exposed, breathing black smoke and chirping in a weird smile.
Such ferocious and fierce ghosts are like old corpses breaking out of coffins and walking around in broad daylight. I don’t know how profound they are. How come they are not scary?
Xiaochong was scared in his heart, but the monster just screamed but did not hurt anyone. He dared to salute, tried to slow down his voice, and said word by word: "Senior! You have already cultivated Taoism, so I don't expect you to do anything."
It will embarrass us mortals. I guess I don’t care about money in the world. If you need some blood food, you can take Wang Chong’s life and hope to let my family members go."
The monster chirped twice and suddenly backed away.
A short, middle-aged man wearing a black monk's robe walked out from behind the monster. He was blocked by the monster just now, so few people could not see him.
The middle-aged Taoist in black robe sneered twice and said: "You have some spirit of flesh and blood. I'm just asking for directions. Although this poor Taoist comes from an evil sect, he doesn't hurt others easily."
Xiao Chong cupped his hands, calmed down a little, and asked, "Where do you want to go, senior?"
The middle-aged Taoist in black robe sneered again, and then asked: "Which direction is Xiaohan Mountain?"
Xiaochong was slightly surprised to find that Xiaohan Mountain was where the stone tablet was located. He raised his hand without hesitation and said, "There are six or seven mountains nearby, and Xiaohan Mountain is an inconspicuous one among them.
Over there, there is an earth temple on the mountain."
The middle-aged Taoist in black robe nodded, patted the monster with black fur and bones exposed, and scolded in a low voice: "Follow me quickly."
The monster took a long breath and blew out a puff of thick black smoke. The black smoke condensed and wrapped around the middle-aged Taoist in black robes, and slowly flew into the sky.
Uncle Wang fell back, so frightened that his whole body collapsed. The bug screamed a few times, and then he stood up tremblingly and shouted: "I'm scared to death, old man! This is the first time I have seen such a ferocious monster in my life."
"
Uncle Wang took a few breaths, wiped his sweat, and said with some shame: "The old man is not as good as the young master. He can actually answer such a monster fluently without any fear."
Xiaochong just shook his head and said lightly: "Let's go!" He walked back to the car and sat down. In fact, he was already shaking with fear, and his clothes were soaked with cold sweat.
The carriage had only taken a few steps forward when Liuzi called out and shouted: "The old Taoist seems to have lost something, it must be a magic weapon!"
He jumped down and came up a moment later holding a copper ring.
Uncle Wang wanted to reprimand his youngest son, but because of the young master's reputation, he finally said nothing and drove the carriage on the road.
