”We've finally arrived.” Looking at the snowy scenery in front of his eyes, his Master sighed and said, ”The natural spirit energy here is so dense, what a rare treasure land.”
Chang Tianba said, ”This is the place where I've been the longest in my life. It's also where I start to have memories.” Wild Immortals would occasionally absorb the essence of the sun and moon in order to gain enlightenment. In most areas where humans lived, the environment was mostly polluted and there was barely any spiritual energy in the air.
Following Chang Tianba to the place where he used to frequent activities, he asked, ”This is your hometown?” I asked. Chang Tianba said, ”It should be here, I don't remember how long it has been.”
At night, we could only find the roots of some common herbs. We found an inn in a nearby town to rest at. The owner of the inn was a large, bald man with a greasy chin.
”Boss, four rooms.” I stepped forward and said. The boss lifted the dead fish and looked at us. ”There are no four rooms. There are only three.” My master and I could squeeze together, I thought. ”Three then.”
The boss said slowly, ”Three rooms for three hundred yuan and only one room for one person.” After saying that, I extended my plump hand and looked at us. I said, ”How do the four of us live in a room?” He said, ”I don't care about that. Our inn only has this rule. We can't stay here anymore.”
What kind of person was this? How could he do business like this? His Master stepped forward and said, ”Boss, where are we going to find a place in the middle of the night? Can you help me?” That guy shook his head and said, ”No, no. If that's the case, then I won't die.” His Master said, ”How about this, we'll give you four rooms' worth of money. That should be fine, right?” The guy smiled and said, ”Sure, four hundred.”
After entering the room, I felt a little depressed. What kind of crappy house is this? It costs a hundred yuan a night, so how can it be worth so much money? Not to mention the dark and damp air, the windows were broken and couldn't even be opened. The lights were very dim and wanted to turn on the TV, but the TV was still broken. I was so angry that I almost threw the remote control.
Master and I squeezed into the same bed, and Master fell asleep very quickly, but I couldn't sleep well, and even after tossing and turning for a long time, I still couldn't sleep. After a while, Master started snoring again, and this really took my life.
He closed his eyes and ordered himself to count the sheep. He counted hundreds of sheep, but he still didn't feel like sleeping. Instead, he became even more spirited.
In a daze, I heard a chirping sound, as if someone was whispering, and the more I tried to hear, the more I couldn't make out what it was, and the more curious I became, what they were saying, ”My family is an old family, and they have a lot of good sense. When I get married, your family will have to follow my orders.” It was a girl's voice, shrill and proud, like a rich girl's.
On the other side, he replied, ”Yes, yes, yes, Lady Xi's marriage is our family's good fortune. Everyone in our family will listen to you, but we just don't know if it's a lucky day. Have you decided on your family's next of kin?” The person who spoke was an old granny, and her tone was full of flattery.
My mom has already thought about this for me. It's a good day tomorrow, are you ready?” What kind of wedding is this? Why are you in such a hurry? ”It's a bit urgent.” ”What's the hurry? My mom said it's a rare day, there's no need for your family to prepare anything, what's there to prepare? When did we ever need anything? Aiya, aiya, why don't we stop acting in broad daylight? Let's do it now, in my opinion, it's not bad today either.
”Aiyo, Miss Xi, what you just said is the truth. Today you all …” ”Today …” ”What's wrong with you today? You're not happy that I'm going to marry your family? I'm not marrying anymore.” Then I heard a rustling sound, and I said to myself that the girl was too angry, that she would not marry if she did not want to marry, and that she was taking marriage for a joke.
”Aiyo, Miss Xi, don't be angry. It's just an old and old one today, let's prepare.” The old granny became anxious. After she finished speaking, the sound of firecrackers filled the air. They were about to get married.
For a time, the gongs and drums filled the air, and the crowd was in an uproar. This was because all of their friends and relatives had come to congratulate them, and the sounds of toasting could be heard everywhere. From time to time, there would be people shouting and cheering at the top of their voices, and it was very lively.
Sometimes I would bring the old people over to stay together for a few days, and sometimes I would even argue over whatever I ate. I was a little worried for this family, how could this be good, in the blink of an eye, they had children, not just one, but five, the eldest, second, and eldest, third, so on and so forth, it was not difficult to call them by name, just thinking about it, it wasn't an easy life for so many children.
”Boss, go get a piece of meat.” The woman's voice sounded. After being married for so many years, the sharp and resounding voice from before changed as well, ”Me won't go. Me is afraid.” A muffled voice sounded, but the woman was not angry. ”You're disobedient. Where's number two? Go to number two.”
