Volume 1 Beidou Chapter 6 So Big, So White
In a small room, Shangguan Yu woke up quietly. After opening his beautiful autumn eyes, he was still full of confusion. It took him a while to remember everything that happened in the market before.
Where am I?
Sitting up, Shangguan Yu looked at the unfamiliar environment around him.
There was a wardrobe, a wooden table, a big stool, and a few books on the table. I was lying on the earthen kang in the northeastern countryside, covered with a big red flower quilt.
She shook her head, which was still a little dizzy, got up, put on the black cloth slippers placed beside the bed, and walked outside the room.
In the living room, Chu Xie was sitting on a small bench watching TV, his body covered with bandages.
Yesterday, when he came back covered in blood, he almost scared the villagers to death. Grandma Wang was so distressed that she wiped away tears for a long time.
"You saved me?"
A cold voice suddenly came from behind him, Chu Xie turned his head, and then became confused.
What do these girls mean?
I am still a child, how could she be so shameless!
Or are all the women in the spirit world so bold?!...Chu Xie's brain instantly short-circuited.
Shangguan Yu's face was still very pale and his steps were a little sloppy, but he could barely walk. He moved a chair and sat down next to Chu Xie.
"So big, so big..."
A strange voice suddenly sounded in the room, which startled Shangguan Yu. She had never noticed anyone else was there before.
I turned around and looked around, and there was a colorful parrot standing on the table next to me, and it kept saying "so big" in its mouth.
"Is this your pet?" Shangguan Yu asked curiously.
"This is Third Master, I picked it up in the mountains." Chu Xie replied intently.
About four years ago, he picked up this injured parrot while walking in the mountains and has been raising it ever since.
Shangguan Yu teased the parrot with great interest: "Why is it called this name?"
"I have taught it for a long time but it still can only speak three sentences, so I call it Third Master."
"What are the other two sentences?"
"forget……"
Shangguan Yu turned his head and rolled his eyes at him. Suddenly he noticed that the kid next to him didn't even blink, so he lowered his head suspiciously.
At this time, what I was wearing was not a white shirt and a hip-hugging skirt, but a pair of hemp-colored thin pants and a white loose vest...
Snapped!
Shangguan Yu's pretty face instantly turned as red as a ripe apple, she hurriedly covered her chest and got up and ran back to the room.
Chu Xie covered his face, feeling very aggrieved: "Third Master, she shamelessly dressed like this to seduce me, why did she hit me again?"
The parrot flapped its wings and flew into the room.
Shangguan Yu felt that his face was frighteningly hot, and he quickly looked for his original clothes, only to see that the clothes had been washed clean and neatly stacked at the end of the bed, but he didn't notice it when he just got up.
She hurriedly put on her underwear and breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately she felt murderous... How dare that little gangster help me change my clothes?!
"So white, so white..."
Shangguan Yu turned her head warily, only to find that the parrot had followed her back into the house. However, the words it shouted repeatedly made her face darken completely, and she gritted her teeth and cursed:
"The little hooligans are not raising good birds!"
It was not until noon that Granny Wang knocked on the door, and Shangguan Yu came out of the house again.
"Girl, are your injuries feeling better?" Grandma Wang asked kindly.
"Much better, mother-in-law, my clothes are..." Shangguan Yu asked hesitantly. If that boy really helped change them, she would definitely skin him!!
Granny Wang was from here, the village was feudal, and women paid more attention to honor and integrity. She couldn't help laughing and said, "Old lady, I changed the clothes for you yesterday, but you are tall, so you can only find A Xie's clothes to wear temporarily."
Fortunately, there was no need to kill someone to silence him... Shangguan Yu felt relieved, but he was still furious.
Because Chu Xie is tall and straight, wearing his vest on her body is basically the same as if he is not wearing it. Besides, she is sitting next to him stupidly and teasing the parrot...
Following Granny Wang to the restaurant, Shangguan Yu saw Chu Xie sitting at the dining table. Although Shangguan Yu's face was expressionless, his delicate white ears were already red, and his heart became increasingly angry.
After suffering such a big loss, she really wanted to kill someone...
"Girl, drink more chicken soup quickly, it will be good for your body's recovery." Grandma Wang saw her in a daze and greeted her warmly.
As for what happened at the market yesterday, she and her wife chose to ignore it.
The village chief next to him took a sip of the home-brewed local wine and exhaled with satisfaction, but found that Chu Xie had no appetite. This was really surprising, so he hurriedly asked: "You are not feeling well yet?"
"Old man, I don't want to eat rice, I want to eat white steamed buns and peanuts."
Chu Xie was picking up the food listlessly with chopsticks. The scene this morning had a great impact on his young and innocent heart...
Plop.
"What are you doing?"
Chu Xie fell heavily to the ground with the chair and raised his head with a pitiful and aggrieved look on his face.
The village chief and Granny Wang were also confused. They didn't understand how it happened. The girl in front of them suddenly kicked their boy over.
If it hadn't been for a girl in front of them, the old couple would have rolled up their sleeves and beat her up.
Don't be angry, coax him back to the door first and then clean up... Shangguan Yu sat down calmly and drank the fragrant chicken soup: "Conditional reflex, let's eat."
Three people: "..."
The meal was finished in a weird atmosphere.
After the meal, Shangguan Yu saw that the village chief and his wife were busy. He walked to Chu Xie who was watching TV and sat down. He felt as if he was not wearing any clothes and felt uncomfortable all over. He moved his chair to the side:
"You have seen what happened yesterday. Do you still think that staying here will not bring danger to everyone? And you and the witch have known each other before?"
"Third Master, let's go for a walk." Chu Xie picked up the parrot on the table and walked directly out the door.
He is not afraid of nightmares, and he will not leave the village.
Shangguan Yu frowned and remained silent for a long time before taking out his mobile phone and making a call.
"Hey, girl, how are things going?" An energetic old voice came from the other end of the phone.
"The name of the little immortal is Chu Xie. It has been confirmed that he is a spiritual being, but there are some big doubts." Shangguan Yu walked back to the room and closed the doors and windows tightly.
"How to say?"
Shangguan Yu sorted out his thoughts, first explained in detail what happened during this period, and then expressed his own opinions:
"1. His ability to use copper coins has exceeded common sense. This does not refer to secular common sense, but to the common sense of the spirit world;
2. Copper coins are not his natal spiritual treasure. According to my observation, he should not have any natal treasure, and he does not have a master. In this case, he can actually practice;
3. There is something wrong with the spiritual energy in his body, it can actually burst my natal spiritual sword, and Meng Ci’s natal spiritual talisman is the ‘Spirit Devouring Talisman’. She absorbed Chu Xie’s spiritual energy at that time, but it didn’t seem to have any effect on him.”
The old man on the other end of the phone listened quietly to everything and said: "The organization has also investigated some documents and records. If I am not wrong, that copper coin is a good and evil copper coin."
"Good and evil copper coins?" Shangguan Yu asked doubtfully.
"Well, it is a natal spiritual treasure refined by a good and evil Taoist back then, and this Taoist was one of the seniors who launched the God Burial War last time."
"No matter what, Chu Xie and Copper Coin will bring them back to Daomen at any cost." After saying this, the old man sighed:
"Your natal spiritual sword is damaged, and it will have a great impact on your future path..."
Shangguan Yu pursed his red lips and said: "Grandpa, it is inevitable that there will be casualties when performing tasks. This is my own responsibility and has nothing to do with Chu Xie."
She herself did not know the situation and lent the spirit sword to Chu Xie without authorization, causing the spirit sword to be damaged. She did not think that Chu Xie, who did not understand anything about the world of spirits, needed to take responsibility.
Of course, she would never let that little gangster off lightly after she suffered a big loss just now.
The old man sighed: "Well, anyway, you bring him back as soon as possible, and the city has begun to become chaotic recently, so be careful on the road."
After hanging up the phone, Shangguan Yu thought for a long time and then went out to find the old village chief who was chopping firewood.
Nowadays, only electric lights are widely available in the village. There is only one TV and one telephone. Equipment that is common in the city, such as air conditioning and natural gas, is not available in the village at all.
The old village chief was chopping firewood and listening to Shangguan Yu explain his purpose. He took out a pipe and took a puff of dry tobacco, and sighed:
"Other people regard that boy as a living god, but I understand that he is just a child who doesn't understand anything."
"When he first arrived in the village, he didn't know anything except the most basic survival instincts of eating and sleeping. He didn't even remember his own name..."
The old village chief slowly talked about what happened to Chu Xie over the years. Shangguan Yu did not interrupt, but just listened silently.
"I don't know who you are, but I just want to ask you, after taking that kid away, can you take good care of him? If others bully him..."
"I will definitely take good care of him." Shangguan Yu looked serious and asked hesitantly: "Village chief, do you really agree with me taking him away?"
"We haven't known each other for long, and I don't have much trust in you, but I believe in Ah Xie. He doesn't hate you." The old village chief's face was full of the vicissitudes of time, and he said with a smile:
"My son can let him go out and explore, and Axie is not an ordinary person. He can't be allowed to stay in a small place like this with us as an old couple for the rest of our lives."
Shangguan Yu felt awe in his heart. Although the old man in front of him was just an ordinary person, he was a respectable elder.
At this time, the old village chief suddenly changed the subject: "However, that boy probably won't agree to go with you."
Shangguan Yu smiled bitterly, this is the most troublesome thing at present.
The old village chief smiled, got up and walked into the house. Soon he walked out with a package. When he opened it, he found a tattered black robe inside.
He began to talk about everything when he first met Chu Xie, and finally sighed: "Girl, do you believe there are immortals in this world? If it is true, it must be Ah Xie."
Shangguan Yu's mind was shaken, and a picture appeared in his mind:
A young man wearing a black robe with waist-length hair sat high on the Buddhist altar, looking down at all living beings with indifferent eyes, and said softly:
"Beg to any gods or Buddhas, kneel to any heaven or earth, beg me, and I will fulfill all your wishes."
