Becoming a fox fairy from Liaozhai

Chapter 13 Saying Goodbye
What Gong Mengbi wants to talk about is far beyond Shen Shan's imagination.

Shen Shan traveled far and wide, so he was well-informed, but Gong Mengbi asked: "Master Shen, what do you think of the current world?" He didn't know how to answer.

Just thinking about it, he said: "The world is difficult."

"Nowadays, the sky is unstable, and the rivers and seas are not clear. Since I went on the commercial route, I have encountered exploitation from all over the world, and the bandits, big and small, have never stopped."

"There are refugees everywhere, and there are dead people everywhere."

Shen Shan stopped talking to the point and did not dare to discuss government affairs indiscriminately.

But he is a businessman, and his sense of smell is not insensitive.

A few years ago, Wang Xianggong said that he wanted to reform the law, reform the system, and change the tax, but now Wang Xianggong's soul tomb has been deserted.

Another southwestern chieftain rebelled and killed the king of Jiannan and made himself king.

The emperor's right to withdraw troops was not revealed, Yuan Fasheng, the great general of Jingbei, escaped from the capital overnight, led troops to occupy thirteen counties in the northwest, and fought against the imperial court.Although he didn't become king, it was a matter of time.

The peace of the world today is like the rotten roots of trees.On the surface it looks like a brocade, but in fact it’s just that the skin has not been pierced, and the pus and blood inside cannot be seen.

Even in Wuning County, and even Dongyang County, there are many people who don't know the current sage, but only know the King of Wu.

Shen Shan dare not speak nonsense, and Gong Mengbi will not force him to speak.

Seeing that Shen Shan understood in his heart, Gong Mengbi stood up, pointed at the tiny sentient beings under the bright moon, and said: "The furnace of heaven and earth, sentient beings are refined. In this world, Shen's family can live in peace with a small fortune, but if there is a storm, just I'm afraid that the boat is small and easy to capsize, and peace is rare."

Gong Mengbi looked at Shen Shan with deep meaning, and Shen Shan was terrified in his heart.

Shen Shan hastily bowed down: "I also ask the fox fairy to express it clearly."

Gong Mengbi helped him up, but refused to say anything, just pointed to the sky and shook his head.

Shen Shan was terrified, paced back and forth, and after a long while, he came up with a clever way: "My Shen family is just a small rich merchant, and a small role in Wuning County. The boat is small and easy to capsize, so the big boat may be able to withstand the wind and rain? "

Gong Mengbi glanced at Shen Shan approvingly, "That depends on how capable you are and how big a ship you can build."

Gong Mengbi didn't say it clearly, but mentioned another thing: "Before that Xu Banxian told your fortune, he once said that the Shen family has two precious lives. Although he was just trying to fool you, he had no intention of breaking the secret."

"Whether it's Shen Qiao or Shen Yan, life is precious. You should be well educated, but don't stay by your side.

To grow your life, you have to go through calamity.In today's turmoil, both dragons and snakes will come out to stir up the wind and rain. Your boat is too small to carry them across the wind and rain, so you can only let them fight for it by themselves.Otherwise, the boat will only capsize. "

Shen Shan was both happy and worried, he was happy because he hoped his son would become a dragon, and worried because the future was dangerous: "Although life is good, I am more worried about their safety."

Gong Mengbi said: "So we have to split things up, send them out to learn skills, and fight for the ferry. Only by building a big boat can we protect the whole family and protect them from the wind and rain."

Shen Shan prostrated himself on the ground: "It's hard to build a big ship, please let the fox fairy guide you."

Gong Mengbi said: "It's not worth mentioning that it's broken, it's nothing more than wealth and power. To do business, to do big business, to be an official, to be a high-ranking official."

Shen Shan's heart beat like a drum, he felt that his brain was congested and it was difficult to breathe.He breathed a sigh of relief, and sighed: "It is difficult to do business nowadays, and it is even more difficult to be an official."

Gong Mengbi: "Business is nothing more than buying and selling. Buy at a low price, sell at a high price, and communicate with each other. On the dark days of every month, you can burn incense and worship me, and I will hear for you where the business opportunity is. Yes If you have the money, you can find a way to donate to the official."

A fire gradually ignited in Shen Shan's heart, with the help of the fox fairy, there will be no disadvantages.

He suddenly knelt down in front of Gong Mengbi, bowed his head and said: "May the fox fairy be worshiped from generation to generation and a temple be built for the fox fairy."

"It is to build a temple, but it is not for me, but for the Empress of Mount Tai. The Empress of Mount Tai is my benefactor, you need to sacrifice diligently, and you will have your own spiritual response." Gong Mengbi said.

Shen Shan stretched out his hand and swore: "The Empress of Mount Tai is merciful and merciful, of course she is worshiping the main god, but the fox fairy is the benefactor of the Shen family, so the fox fairy must be invited to share the sacrifice."

Gong Mengbi laughed, although he did not plan for the sacrifice, but what Shen Shan said made him satisfied.But if you are satisfied, you still have to beat it: "You can handle it yourself. But I said ugly things first, business accumulation and good deeds are the foundation of your roots, and both are indispensable. Otherwise, the more prosperous the yang, the more the yin. Lose, you will have your own retribution."

Shen Shan quickly responded: "In the future, we will do more good deeds, and we will not lose righteousness for money."

"Okay." Gong Mengbi stretched out his hand, and a flock of sparrows flew over and landed on the eaves of the pavilion: "From now on, except for poultry, your house must not catch or hurt birds. If there are birds begging for food, you must do so in time." worship."

Shen Shan looked at the group of sparrows, and saw that the sparrows also tilted their heads to look at him, very spiritual.

Surprised in Shen Shan's heart, he said: "Follow the instruction."

Shen Shan was about to continue asking, but suddenly heard a cock crow.

Gong Mengbi listened intently, smiled, and said, "The time has come, I'll be leaving first."

Shen Shan saw the bright moonlight, and his eyes were white in an instant.

When I opened my eyes again, it was already dawn.

Madam Shen saw him in a daze, and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Shen Shan hid the strange dream last night in his heart, and said: "It's nothing, I had a dream."

Mrs. Shen shook her head, and the two of them washed up and went out, when they saw a group of sparrows flying from nowhere, standing on the eaves and chirping.

When Shen Shan and Mrs. Shen got close, they were not afraid of people, they even landed on Shen Shan's finger, tilting their heads to look at him.

Mrs. Shen said in surprise: "These little things are not afraid of people."

"Maybe you're hungry," Shen Shan ordered someone to fetch millet and sprinkle it on the ground, letting the sparrows eat it.

After a while, the full sparrow flew to nowhere.

It was almost time for dinner and the two children were not there, so Shen Shan knew without guessing that they must have gone outside the east courtyard to say hello.

But before he could sit still, he saw Shen Qiao running towards him in a panic until he said, "It's not good! Father, the door of the east courtyard is open."

Shen Shan was startled, recalling the dream last night, but felt it was expected.

He followed Shen Qiao to the east courtyard, and saw that the old wooden door was wide open, revealing the mugwort and sedges hidden in it.

The sedge was so dense that there was nowhere to step down, and the mugwort was taller than a person.

There is a small path exposed among the sedges, which is exactly where Shen Shan walked last night.

"It really wasn't a dream." Shen Shan sighed.

Shen Qiao was about to cry, and asked anxiously: "What's the matter, has the fox left our house?"

Shen Shan touched his head, and said: "Last night I dreamed of a fox fairy. He is valued by the empress of Mount Tai, and he has already become a fairy. If you miss him, go to the god card and pray more, he will bless us of."

Shen Qiao looked at the empty barren garden, filled with sadness in his heart.Although it was only a one-time relationship, the impression Gong Mengbi left on the two children was too deep.

From the bottom of their hearts, both Shen Qiao and Shen Yan regarded Hu Immortal as a very close person.

This farewell was a bit hasty, and to the Shen family, it was more than enough, but to Gong Mengbi, it was already too much.

After Gong Mengbi left, the East Garden of the Shen Mansion remained as it was, not because it was unusable, but because this was Gong Mengbi's old residence, a humble and cozy room.

It is also their thought, hoping that the fox fairy can return one day and live here again.

　The double shift is 11 in the morning and 8 in the evening.Also, do you think the title Fox Fox is too cute and not intuitive enough?
