After Bai Gui finished eating the glutinous rice balls, he handed the soup bowl to the vendor selling glutinous rice balls and thanked him smoothly.
Today is March 3rd, Shangsi Festival.
"The Analects of Confucius" says: "In late spring, the spring clothes are ready, five or six people with crowns, and six or seven boys, bathing in Yi, the wind is like dancing with the urns, chanting and returning."
So today is a good day for spring outing in West Lake, and there are many tourists.
Bai Gui had just been reincarnated and had awakened from his past life. He felt a little depressed at home, so he went out for a spring outing to relieve his boredom.
Maybe it's because of his deep blessings.
Unexpectedly, I met an expert selling glutinous rice balls by the West Lake.
This glutinous rice ball is actually an elixir, although the treasure is hidden.
But Bai Gui is already on the verge of the realm of the Earthly Immortal, and with the help of Fuxi's divine power and the Kunlun Mirror, it is feasible to find out the fate of this place.
However, although he could tell that the glutinous rice balls were sold by an expert, and they might be selling elixirs, everything depends on fate, and if he went to buy it in person, he would be out of luck.
He could see that although the glutinous rice dumplings sold by this expert were restrained in their brilliance and contained elixirs, not everyone would give them elixirs when selling glutinous rice balls. At least when he observed the dozen or so bowls he was selling,
There is not even an elixir in it.
The elixir is only given to those who are destined.
And a child prodigy should be regarded as a destined person.
Bai Gui made a little trick and asked these scholars to buy glutinous rice balls for him, avoiding the cause and effect, and enjoying the restrained elixir of glutinous rice balls.
"You little boy, you just talked about state affairs and made lofty remarks, which shows that you are a noble man, Long Wen."
"I wonder...whose noble son is he from?"
The old man selling glutinous rice balls took the pottery bowl, scooped out water from the bucket with a gourd and ladle, washed the pottery bowl, wiped it with a rag, and asked.
An amiable look.
骥子龙文, 骥子,千里马,龙文, the name of a horse. In the old days, it often referred to a child prodigy.
"A small family, selling silk at home."
Bai Gui replied.
In this life, his family situation is not as good as it was in the Tang Dynasty. He is just the son of an ordinary merchant. But his status is not bad, at least he has three meals a day.
"What about the name?"
The old man selling glutinous rice balls looked at Bai Gui with a more kind look. He could see that Bai Gui had immortal bones and was so smart now. It would be good not to teach and accept him as a disciple, but to leave some fate behind.
"Surname is Bai..., name is wealth."
Bai Gui hesitated for a moment and said.
In this life, because the merchant family he was born into was not as famous as the Bai family of Jinyang in the Tang Dynasty, the name was rather vulgar, directly referring to the word wealth.
Of course, this was already understood when he was reincarnated into this world.
"Bai Fugui?"
The old man selling glutinous rice balls looked slightly changed.
This name is quite familiar to him.
Bai Mudan, who plays Bai Mudan in his three plays, is the daughter of Bai Fugui.
It's just that the original Bai Fugui has passed away and has not become an immortal. His life span is at most a few decades longer than ordinary people.
Now this Bai Fugui...
He pinched his fingers and calculated, and it suddenly became clear.
Owe a cause and effect.
"You are a smart little boy. You probably didn't eat enough of the bowl of glutinous rice balls just now. I have a bowl of glutinous rice balls left here, so I'll give it to you."
Lu Dongbin pretended to be an old man selling glutinous rice balls and said with a smile.
Although Bai Gui ate his glutinous rice balls just now, the glutinous rice balls were bought by the middle-aged scholar in equal exchange. Although he gave the elixir as a gift, he actually sold glutinous rice balls, so it stands to reason that Bai Gui wanted to thank Yu.
He, but cannot say that the current Bai Gui owes him a favor.
These two are different!
The old man selling glutinous rice balls took out another bowl of boiled glutinous rice balls. The remaining bowl was handed to Bai Gui, urging him to take it and eat it.
"Elixir? Another elixir?"
"There must be something strange in this, but it cannot be repeated. Just now you gave me an elixir, and now you give me..."
Various speculations flashed through Bai Gui's mind, but his expression remained unchanged and he immediately took the glutinous rice balls.
But he didn't open his mouth and ate immediately.
First, the elixir he just consumed still has medicinal properties in his body, and he has just been promoted to the next level. Taking another elixir now will easily cause his foundation to become unstable.
The second reason is that he has concerns about this elixir.
Because Fuxi's divine power has the ability to deduce heavenly secrets, he has already felt that this bowl of glutinous rice balls is not simple. Although it will not be harmful to eat it, it may cause karma.
When monks reach a certain level, they usually act on a whim.
What's more, he has the spiritual talent of spirituality and wisdom.
The mirror has never been stained with dust.
"Where's the way out?"
Bai Gui used Fuxi's magical power combined with Guishance's magical power to deduce.
Suddenly, he looked intently at the two monsters who were cultivating under the water of the West Lake, a white snake and an old turtle. They had both practiced cultivation for five hundred years.
"It turns out that this elixir is a golden elixir refined by Lu Zu..."
"This white snake should be White Snake, and the old turtle is Fahai."
"No wonder Lu Zu would give me the elixir again after hearing my name. The reason is... I met Lao Taishan who changed his mind. This elixir means to end the cause and effect of the previous life."
Bai Guibao read poetry, Taoism, and Confucian classics. He didn't know these stories thoroughly, but he had a wide range of knowledge. With a little clue, he could guess at least seventy-seven or eighty-eight.
Not to mention the Kunlun Mirror to assist.
It is impossible not to find out clearly.
"Fortunately I took the dumpling."
"Otherwise... it is not a good thing to have a karmic relationship with Lu Zu, one of the eight immortals, the Donghua Immortal, even if it is a 'good karma'."
"It's best to be able to resolve this cause and effect!"
Bai Gui thought to himself.
If the favor is great, it will become an enemy. If you want to repay a favor, you have to see whether you have the ability.
He is only a few steps away from becoming an immortal, and he doesn't want to cause trouble.
This time it seemed like he was getting into trouble by trying to get the elixir, but in fact he just showed off his talent. As for the extra stuff, it was done by others and it had nothing to do with him.
But at this moment, he didn't want to eat the elixir contained in the glutinous rice balls.
Taking this second bowl of glutinous rice balls has already settled the cause and effect.
But if he eats it, firstly, the elixir is too strong, and it has not been fully digested in his body. Although it may be useful in the future, it is useless to use it now. It is a glutinous rice dumpling, and it cannot be saved. It is no fun to reveal the secret.
The second is that these glutinous rice balls are obviously the opportunity for White Snake White Snake to become enlightened. If he cuts off his beard, I don’t know what changes will occur. Maybe Lu Zu came to sell glutinous rice balls just for White Snake. White Snake has a good background and is a Li
A disciple of Mother Shan.
He delayed White Snake's practice, which was equivalent to making a grudge.
After thinking about the gains and losses, Bai Gui made a plan.
Rather than making enemies..., it's better to make friends.
Xu Xian is just a mortal, and White Snake can repay her kindness by repaying her with her own body, but he is a monk, and the gift of elixir will not be forgotten so easily.
"Thank you for this bowl of glutinous rice balls, old man."
"I'll eat it now."
Hearing Lu Dongbin's urging, Bai Gui immediately picked up the spoon and ate it in a hurry, not afraid that the glutinous rice balls would burn his mouth.
One or two glutinous rice balls go into the belly.
But when it came to the glutinous rice dumpling containing the elixir, he was so eager to eat that he accidentally burned his mouth and spit it out. The elixir fell into the water of the West Lake, causing ripples.
When the glutinous rice balls entered the water, the medicinal properties of the golden elixir inside were revealed, and the surrounding small fish and shrimps flocked over, as did the white snakes and turtles lurking at the bottom of the lake.
White Snake arrived first. She caught the dumpling in her mouth and swallowed it with a slurp.
She then got out of the water, took a steady look at the child on the shore, and disappeared in an instant. She was no longer at the bottom of the West Lake, and she didn't know where she went.
"The stall has been closed today."
"Little boy, if you want to come again, please come back tomorrow."
The old man selling glutinous rice balls said with a smile, he collected the bowls and chopsticks, pushed the truck and left directly.
