practice fundamentals

Yi Xuanqing went to the living room alone, and as expected, he found the altar god placed in the corner.The stone has been covered with a layer of dust, and it looks inconspicuous from the outside.No one would have thought that he would harm a prince so badly.

No, if King Ning was not a prince with a superior bloodline and the protection of the gods, it would definitely be worse than it is now.

Yi Xuanqing started to get down to business, since he came to the palace, he would not return without success, besides, this altar god has made enough trouble, so he can't be allowed to stay here to harm others.He must be sent away.

This can be regarded as the fulfillment of a common saying - it is easier to ask God than to send God away.

In the final analysis, it was because King Ning did not have a good life to support the altar god.Ordinary gods are invited into the house and eat incense and offerings from believers, and they will naturally perform their duties. On the contrary, if they are neglected, they will add malice.

Ordinary gods are already so irritable, let alone altar gods.

Originally, when the altar god first came to the palace and was respected by King Ning, he was very peaceful, and he also took care of the homes of the servants of the palace.Silently guarding the already safe palace.

As a result, King Ning lost his patience within a few months, and even began to dislike him as an ugly and heavy stone like his group of cronies.

The altar god was very sad. He was born with a stone shape and never had a human form. Even a goblin can stand on two legs, but he can only sit on the ground forever. This has always been a pain in the altar god's heart.

Many people regard him as the incarnation of Jiang Ziya, but he is not, he is just a rock.He doesn't know why someone believes in him or how he appeared in this world.He only knew that as long as he was unhappy, he could torture those people unscrupulously.

Moreover, the altar god doesn't like humans touching his body very much. He stared at the human beings who were drawing on his body with a brush with his invisible eyes, and said with divine sense: "What are you doing?"

Yi Xuanqing, who was holding a writing brush and using cinnabar to draw talismans on the surface of the altar god, was not surprised when he heard the voice imprinted directly in his mind, and replied flatly: "Injecting air to draw talismans, do you feel it?"

"Don't... don't... do it, it's very itchy." The Altar God's voice carried a bit of a forbearable smile.

Suddenly, he realized that he shouldn't be so polite to a Taoist priest, and now he should use his strength to drive this bull-nosed man crazy.Yes, crazy!

After half a stick of incense...

"Why didn't you respond?" The altar god wondered, the first time he saw a human being who was not affected by him, could it be because this human being didn't directly touch his body, so he said: "Touch me with your hand. "

"Oh." Yi Xuanqing stretched out his left index finger and poked the off-white grainy surface of the Altar God: "Is this so? It's so cold."

"What's wrong, is my magic power invalid?!" The altar god roared.

"Don't worry, it's because I drew the talisman." Yi Xuanqing pointed to the extra red lines on the surface of the Altar God, and explained with a blank expression.

Altar God blinked instead of nodding.

"!!!"

"how did you do it?"

Yi Xuanqing knew that even if he didn't use the talisman, the altar god wouldn't be able to affect his state of mind, so he said, "Maybe it's because I'm a Taoist priest."

The altar god snorted coldly in his heart, there were not no Taoist priests who were beaten to death by him, there is nothing unusual about Taoist priests.This one is just a little stronger, and it is not easy to kill Yi Xuanqing.

But this little Taoist is quite handsome, although he is a stone, but out of appreciation for beauty, he doesn't want to kill Yi Xuanqing for the time being.

"Senior, how can you be willing to leave the palace?" Yi Xuanqing asked standing in front of the stone, and put the specially brought things on the tribute table, lit the three sticks of incense in his hand, and inserted them slowly and steadily one by one. Inside the incense burner.

The altar god smoked the long-lost incense, and replied comfortably: "I don't want to leave, but I don't have to continue to torment King Ning. As long as he meets my two conditions." Now the palace is his territory, why should he move?

"Senior, please speak."

"Well, you have to serve me very well in the future, and you can't be lazy or look down on me." The altar god still gritted his teeth when he said the word "look down on", and he knew it was his sad point at a glance.After hearing this, Yang Heng said seriously: "I think King Ning will definitely agree."

Yi Xuanqing took out another three sticks from a pile of incense and lit them.

"The other condition is not difficult. I thought about it, and it stands to reason that he should pay a heavy price for offending me. But the price is not heavy enough now, so I decided to ask him to pay another important thing. He is not a playboy." Is it romantic? Just deprive him of his rights as a man." The altar god thinks this method is very good.

"He does it himself." Altar God added.

"Okay." Yi Xuanqing replied without hesitation, without any consideration of King Ning's reaction when he found out.After speaking, he wanted to leave.

It never occurred to him that this altar god was still a chatterbox, and he insisted on chatting with Yi Xuanqing.Although most of the time it was the altar god who spoke and Yi Xuanqing listened, the altar god still chatted with gusto.

The altar god talked about a lot of miscellaneous things from complaining about the white fox to pouring out his grievances and loneliness over the years.It wasn't until Yi Xuanqing finished offering all the incense for him that he reluctantly let Yi Xuanqing leave.

Yi Xuanqing entered the hall at dawn and came out only after dark.

When he returned to King Ning's bedroom and succinctly relayed the altar god's request, King Ning's pale face suddenly turned black due to illness.

"You don't want to leave the palace? You want me to..." Castrate yourself, King Ning really can't say what to say next.

"En." Yi Xuanqing responded.

Prince Ning was angry, how could he endure such humiliation as the majestic prince of Yi (yi).The immediate refusal showed his royal attitude of preferring death to submission.

"You'd better think clearly, you only have one life, and there are many joys in living." Yi Xuan said calmly.

Hearing this, King Ning thought about it secretly.

He is the only prince in the Yi country, and he can live until now by pretending to be a fool, not competing with the emperor's second brother, which is very difficult.It's not easy to get to be the king. Although he lives under the eyelids of the emperor and doesn't have his own fiefdom, it's the beginning of a good day.He hasn't enjoyed it for a few years, is he really going to die?

Becoming the shortest-lived prince in the history of Yi, perhaps fulfilling the second brother's wish...

Yes, as this little Taoist said, there are still many joys in life, and the only thing to do is to sleep in the ground after death.

Moreover, it is true that he himself blasphemed the gods, and he deserved to suffer retribution. After this incident, he no longer dared to underestimate the altar god.I believe that it is not necessarily a bad thing to keep the altar god in the house.

After a battle between heaven and man, King Ning finally nodded slowly in agreement.

But King Ning really can't do it himself, he is such a big man, and he is not a doctor, what if he dies from this knife?

The altar god was not so unkind, he let King Ning go, and agreed to King Ning's request to find a great eunuch.

From then on, King Ning lived a life of pure heart and asceticism. He claimed that he had suffered a serious illness, and suddenly realized that the princess was his only favorite.From then on, in memory of his deceased wife, he never approached women again.

I don't know what Wang Fei Quan Xia Youzhi, who died of madness, would think about King Ning's actions, whether she is happy or sad...

After receiving King Ning's nod in reply, Yi Xuanqing demanded 200 taels of payment, and left neatly.

Before leaving, he conveyed the altar god's last request to King Ning.

The altar god said—to ask King Ning to come and chat with me often. Although he can't hear me, I will listen to what he said verbatim.

In one sentence, the altar god's thousand-year loneliness is vividly reflected.

This can also be imagined. At that time, when King Ning and his friends stood in front of the altar god, when they made unscrupulous and malicious comments on the altar god, the sourness in the altar god's heart could be clearly heard .

Yi Xuanqing didn't care about King Ning's expression after hearing the words, and left briskly with the hard-earned banknotes.

……

Under the shady shade of a tree, a young boy in a beggar's attire rests comfortably on the trunk of a big tree, eating watermelon in his mouth.The juice of the watermelon moistened the juvenile's plump lips, making their lips look even more bright red.

Tian Xun finished eating a piece of watermelon comfortably, threw the watermelon rind into the bushes, and took another piece from the basket beside him to eat.

While eating, Tian Xun thought of the stinky Taoist priest who broke his appointment, snorted disdainfully, and clearly agreed to come yesterday, fortunately he really had such a little expectation.The result was not what he expected, the Taoist did not do it, he must have run away.

He was a little disappointed, suddenly lost his appetite to continue eating, and threw away the half-eaten watermelon.Too lazy to care about the remaining watermelon in the box, he just closed his eyes and planned to take a nap.

But before he fell asleep, a pair of hands gently pushed his shoulders.

Tian Xun slowly opened his eyes, and saw a figure in a Taoist robe from the bright light, he rubbed his eyes, and took a closer look—it was really Yi Xuanqing.

"You didn't run away?"

"Running for what?" Yi Xuanqing asked back.

Tian Xun suddenly broke into a bright smile, sat cross-legged, straightened up and looked up at Yi Xuanqing and said, "Let's not care about that, what about the money? 100 taels." After speaking, he stretched out his palm.

Yi Xuanqing doesn't like this feeling of looking down on others, and even less like Tian Xun's hooligan-like attitude.

He flicked up his robe, and sat cross-legged opposite Tian Xun, reaching out from his arms to take out what Tian Xun was looking forward to.

Two silver bills of 100 taels doubled the agreed 100 taels.It is the number that Tianxun wanted at the beginning.

Tian Xun suddenly opened his eyes wide, unable to believe what he saw, he just froze for three seconds.After reacting, he excitedly stretched out two thin arms to hug Yi Xuanqing's neck.

"Daozhang, you are really amazing!!!" Tian Xun couldn't hold back his emotions, and shouted in Yi Xuanqing's ear.

Yi Xuanqing was frowning at Tian Xun's insignificant actions, when he was startled by the voice next to his ear, he couldn't help but push him out.

"It's my fault for being late, so can you follow me now?" Yi Xuanqing's tone was still cold, with a hint of an order.
