The spring rain falls quietly from the sky, just like the water drops falling from a woman's wet hair. The dry branches of the trees have a faint green shadow, and the withered paths become moist and exude a refreshing feeling.
The fragrance of the human spirit.
On a small road in the southwest of China, a young man in white was riding a big black donkey and was walking hard.
However, it is indeed difficult. No matter how gentle the spring rain in this southwest land is, the ground cannot withstand it for several days, and the path has already become muddy.
The big black donkey didn't like the nasty rain getting his smooth black hair wet, nor did he like the dirty muddy water under his feet staining his strong legs. However, when the damn rain fell for a few days,
This morning, the person in me wanted to experience the feeling of walking in the rain. What can I do?
The big black donkey was dissatisfied, but he didn't dare to vent his dissatisfaction directly on himself. Therefore, he could only find a reasonable way, such as deliberately not being able to see when walking in a puddle and letting the muddy water splash, or walking on a slippery road.
The ground slipped on purpose, and for another example, when the person on the body was intoxicated with the beautiful scenery, he yelled to ruin his mood of enjoying the beautiful scenery.
Looking at the puddle that appeared again, Dahei lowered his head, his eyes flashed with a cunning light, and he raised his front hooves.
"Dahei, you've gained a lot of meat recently."
A lot of meat? Putting it on a donkey definitely does not mean that you should lose weight if you are fat.
Dahei's cunning expression turned into grievance, and his fallen front hooves only made gentle ripples in the puddle.
A blue figure emerged from the young man's clothes. It was still covered by the spring rain on its furry body. It flew to the young man's shoulder and pointed at Dahei with its wings, chirping excitedly.
After more than ten years of getting along, Dahei can definitely understand its bird song, that is to say, Ye Chao, Ye Chao, I haven't eaten donkey meat yet, let's try Dahei quickly.
But Dahei's status is very low. In the ancestral hall, except for bullying the young man who later came to the old man to learn swordsmanship, anyone can be superior to it. Therefore, it is even more aggrieved, but it can also move forward more easily.
Be careful.
As for the little sparrow, it never gives up any opportunity to target the big black bird that competes with it for favor, and it is still chirping.
Ye Chao thought it was troublesome, so he grabbed it, wiped the rainwater off its head with his sleeves, and stuffed it back into his arms.
"The root map shows that Dawang Village should be arriving soon. We'd better get there before the meal. You must know that there is no inn there. If you miss the meal, you will be hungry."
When Dahei heard this, his timid ears stood up, he stepped forward with his front legs, and seemed to disappear in place like a bolt of lightning.
…
Dawang Village is located in the east of the southwest swamp. Due to the harsh environment, no outsiders are usually seen here. However, a few days ago, outsiders arrived one after another, either to rest or buy some dry food.
The villagers were naturally curious, and after asking questions in various ways, they learned the news that a treasure would be born deep in the swamp.
When Ye Chao, who was soaked to the skin, arrived at the gate of Dawang Village, the spring rain that had been falling for several days stopped.
The mist after the rain and the rising mist of cooking smoke plunge Dawang Village into a haze, like the Hongqiao in the morning or the Xiaozhu Peak in the evening.
Ye Chao took off the wine bag hanging on Dahei's body and took a swig of strong wine, then patted Dahei's neck and walked in.
Not long after entering the village, Ye Chao saw an old man in coarse linen clothes walking towards him with a smile on his face.
"This little brother also went to the depths of the swamp to hunt for treasure?"
Ye Chao nodded, took out a piece of silver from his sleeve, and asked: "What I said is right, but I would like to prepare some dry food in the village and take a rest. Is it convenient?"
Looking at the ingot of silver, the old man's smile became even brighter, and he hurriedly said: "Convenient, convenient, little brother, please come with me."
Following the old man, he walked through an alley and came to a simple courtyard.
There are three earthen houses and a pear tree full of silver flowers in the yard. Under the pear tree, there is a girl holding her chin in her hands and an old Taoist drinking tea leisurely.
After seeing someone arriving, the two of them looked at Ye Chao involuntarily. The girl's red lips were wide open, while the old man's eyes were wide open.
Xiaohuan thought about the scene of the man pinching his face when giving him candied haws many years ago. Zhouxian was shocked that this young man could cultivate the Xuanqing Tao of Tai Chi to the fourth level of Shangqing after ten years. Also, the man beside him
The big black donkey is obviously extraordinary.
"Are you Brother Ye?"
Xiaohuan was wearing a goose-yellow shirt, and her originally cute and delicate face had gained a hint of glamor after ten years. Ye Chao couldn't help but think of the scene when he pinched her face, but it was no longer suitable now.
"It's been ten years, I didn't expect you to still remember me, Xiaohuan."
Somehow, looking at Ye Chao's eyes as he looked at her, Xiao Huan, who was usually generous and generous, felt a hint of shame. She lowered her head, couldn't help pinching the corners of her clothes with both hands, and said something that only she could hear.
The voice said: "How could Xiaohuan forget Brother Ye?"
Zhou Yixian's old face changed. Looking at his granddaughter's shy look, and thinking about how he had always heard her talk about Ye Chao in the past ten years, he felt faintly unhappy in his heart.
"I really don't know what kind of magic power this kid from Qingyun Sect has. I've seen the girl three times and she looks like this. So if I meet her more often, why don't I follow her to Qingyun Mountain?"
Zhou Yixian thought unhappily, but walked in front of Xiaohuan without any discomfort, and said: "Little friend Ye, I haven't seen you for many years, but you have become a monk. This time you come to Dawang Village, you also want to go to the swamp."
Looking for treasure in the depths?”
Ye Chao patted Dahei, sat on the stool that the old man had just taken out, and said, "It is rumored that the Emperor's treasure house is there. Regardless of whether there are treasures or not, it would be good to have a look."
Zhou Yixian nodded, then looked at Dahei and said, "Your donkey has a long history. I don't know where you found it?"
The big black donkey never thinks of himself as a donkey. Although his appearance is no different from that of a donkey, Ye Chao once said that things will always change with the passage of time, and his appearance will also change with time.
Variety.
Therefore, when the young man who went to the ancestral temple to learn swordsmanship ten years ago said it was a donkey, it repaired that young man well, and it was also ready to repair the current Zhouxian.
Dahei screamed first, then twisted his body around and was about to lift his hind legs and kick him.
