Chapter 144 The Writing Goat

Singing songs while carrying a shoulder pole, Wu Ming walked cheerfully, walking vigorously on two legs.

After walking for more than ten miles, a cool wind blew in the face, mixed with a little water vapor, and the sky gradually darkened.

Feeling that it was going to rain, Wu Ming quickened his pace, looking for a suitable shelter from the rain.

After walking for a few miles, there were dark clouds over the head, and there was a faint thunder.

Just when Wu Ming thought that today was going to be a ruined chicken, a dilapidated temple appeared in sight.

Seeing the existence of a temple, Wu Ming was overjoyed.

After all, the temple is not far from the mountain road, and the possibility of ghosts and ghosts is greatly reduced. It is an ideal place to stay.

Half an hour later, the temple came into view.

This is an abandoned mountain temple, the statue inside is gone, only a stone altar remains.

Taking a casual look, Wu Ming put down the burden on his shoulders and decided not to leave tonight.

So, I cleaned up in the temple, and before it rained outside, I found some dry firewood and lit the bonfire.

bang
There was a muffled thunder, and raindrops fell from the sky.

"Grandma, let's go in quickly, the temple here can just take shelter from the rain."

As soon as the bonfire was lit, there were conversations outside.

Hearing this, Wu Ming, who was full of vigilance, put down the dry firewood in his hand, walked to the gate and looked out.

In the eyes, it was an old lady leading a donkey, and with the help of a young girl, she was staggering towards the temple.

"Sakura, grandma's eyes are blurred, look what kind of temple this is!"

"Grandma, this is a mountain temple, it seems to be abandoned."

While talking, the two walked to the gate of the temple and were about to rush in with their donkeys.

Seeing that the donkey was about to come in, Wu Ming couldn't help standing up and said, "The temple is not big, so don't come in!"

"Ah!" Seeing someone in the temple, the girl cried out in surprise.

Later, when she thought that the other party was blocking her donkey, the girl's expression became serious, and she said loudly, "If you say no, you won't let it go. Does this temple belong to your family? If my donkey gets sick, will you be responsible?" ?”

"Sakura!"

The old lady gave the girl a tug, then changed into a smiling face, and said to Wu Ming, "Young man, this donkey is a treasure, and it is much more valuable than my old lady, so you should take care of it!"

People in the countryside have an animal at home, which is offered as an offering to their ancestors.

Wu Ming looked at the two people's clothes, and found that they were all in coarse clothes, and they didn't look like rich people.

"Grandma, don't talk nonsense with him, it's raining outside, let's go in quickly!" The girl took the rein, pulled the donkey and walked inside.

The old lady smiled apologetically, but she didn't stop her granddaughter's behavior, because she couldn't bear to have the donkey outside in the rain.

Three people and one donkey entered the temple, directly occupying most of the place.

The girl quickly tied the reins of the donkey to the door bolt of the temple, and helped the old lady walk towards the bonfire.

As the saying goes, the predecessors planted trees, and the younger generations enjoyed the shade.

The bonfire lit by Wu Ming is obviously very attractive, especially in the rain.

Seeing the old lady and the girl sitting by the campfire leaning against the corner, Wu Ming, the only man, leaned over without hesitation.

"Oh, why did you lean over here!" Seeing Wu Ming sitting beside her without saying a word, the girl showed disgust.

In the world of Liaozhai, although there is no such terrifying defense between men and women in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, it still pays attention to the differences between men and women.

However, Wu Ming didn't want to suffer for himself, but wanted to let others enjoy himself, so he said directly: "This is the fire I lit, what else do you want? Are you a woman, I will let the fire Here, go to the gate and accompany the donkey?"

Before the girl could speak, Wu Ming said again in a muffled voice, "Sorry, I can't do such a stupid thing!"

Respecting the old and loving the young is a virtue, but it must also proceed from reality.

Wu Ming himself thought that sharing the fire would be an act of benevolence.

We just met each other by chance, and if there is a fire, but you want to guard the donkey, such a person is not a saint, he is probably a fool.

"baa, baa"

Under the heavy rain, there was a faint cry of sheep.

When the girl heard the sheep bleating outside, she didn't care about arguing with Wu Ming, and looked back subconsciously.

In the pouring rain, the scenery outside was very blurry.

Indistinctly, a shepherd was driving a flock of sheep and was approaching the mountain temple.

"It's actually a sheep driver. I hate the smell of sheep!" Looking at the approaching sheep, the girl frowned slightly.

Wu Ming didn't answer when he heard the sound, and reached out to add firewood to the fire to keep the fire strong.

"Hehe, there are quite a few people here, and some have donkeys!" Not long after, a shepherd in Tsing Yi walked in with a sound of slapping.

This shepherd, who looks to be in his thirties, has a pair of triangular eyes, giving people a very sinister illusion.

As soon as he entered the door, the shepherd first looked at Wu Ming, and then at the girl beside him.

Sensing the gaze of the shepherd, Wu Ming felt a little puzzled.

With the status of a shepherd, it can be said that they are at the bottom of society, and they are basically small people.But this shepherd in blue had a very aggressive gaze, with a faint air of superiority.

"In these days, those who dare to act recklessly are either blinded by one leaf, or have two brushes. This shepherd, I don't know whether it is the former or the latter!" Wu Ming paid great attention to it in his heart, but his face remained calm. A place is reserved.

Seeing that there was a seat to sit down, the shepherd in Tsing Yi didn't thank him, and sat down with a slap on his buttocks.

Taking this opportunity, Wu Ming looked outside, and saw a dozen goats brought by the shepherd, crowded at the door and looking inside, their eyes full of pleading.

"Hey, what is this sheep doing?" Suddenly, Wu Ming saw a sheep licking the door frame with its tongue.

What is surprising is that after the goat left its head, the word "help" appeared on the door frame.

A sheep wrote help with its tongue, and looked at itself pitifully.

Seeing this scene, Wu Ming was stunned at first, and couldn't help but look at the shepherd beside him.

In the story of Liaozhai, there is an article "Making Animals", which tells about a person who knows evil methods and has the means to turn people into animals.

The sheep outside can write with its tongue, obviously it is not an ordinary sheep.Thinking of the shepherd's superior gaze, Wu Ming couldn't help thinking about the identity of the shepherd in front of him.

"Save, save" the goat who could write, saw that Wu Ming didn't respond, and wrote down a few more words.

Wu Ming looked at the shepherd with his back turned to him, and then at the goats outside, hesitating whether to take care of this matter.

If it was before, Wu Ming would definitely stand by and watch, regardless of these external affairs.

But now, he is going to Mount Qingcheng to seek immortals and visit Taoism. If he accumulates some good deeds along the way, will it be smoother when he is apprenticed to a teacher?
Thinking of the inheritance on Mount Qingcheng, Wu Ming couldn't sit still.

After all, as an outsider, Wu Ming has no idea what conditions are needed to step into the fairy road.I don't even know if such a ruthless behavior will have a bad impact if he refuses to save him.

"The Shangqing Palace is the inheritance of the Supreme Lord. With the idea of ​​being quiet and inactive, the Old Lord should not like to meddle in other people's business."

Wu Ming thought about it for a while, and then felt something was wrong again, thinking: "It's not right, the old gentleman's thinking is inaction, but the disciples of the sect will not save him, and he probably won't even be able to enter the mountain gate! After all, selfish and cruel How can a ruthless person guarantee to be loyal to the sect, so that people can teach the immortal law with peace of mind!"
