Legend of Xianghuang

After Xiaotao arrived at the table, Master Jia immediately stood up to let Xianghuang take the seat, and after a bit of pushback, he sat down, Xianghuang was naturally still next to Wanwan.

After thanking him politely, the maids brought up the dishes one after another, all of which were delicious vegetarian dishes, and it was also Wanwan who reminded Mr. Jia that Xianghuang was a vegetarian.

After eating and drinking enough, Mr. Jia invited Xiang Huang to the living room and asked someone to bring out a box.The box was not too big, but it looked heavy. The surface of the box was engraved with gold flakes and smooth and round pearls.

"This is our thanks, and the Taoist priest must accept it." Master Jia handed the box to Xiang Huang.

Xianghuang quickly declined: "Master Jia, I won't accept this. I went down to the mountain to practice, and exorcising ghosts is also a matter of course."

Master Jia saw that Xianghuang was determined, and knew that she would not accept the money. He stroked his beard, and soon smiled again: "Since the Taoist priest does not accept it, we can't force it. It's just that the Taoist priest is here to practice, so he must ask for it." After traveling for a long time, how about the daily expenses for food and clothing?"

"..." Xianghuang was stunned for a moment, then quickly said with a smile, "I have a change of clothes ready, and as for food, it's not difficult to earn some money on the way."

Mr. Jia nodded in satisfaction: "Yes, the Taoist priest saved dozens of people in my Jia family. If we don't express our gratitude, we will feel sorry. The gold and silver are also belongings outside the body. If the Taoist priest does not give up, why don't you let me prepare some?" Easy-to-carry banknotes and some useful medicinal materials."

"But..." Xianghuang still hesitated.

"The Taoist priest accepted it, so I can trouble the Taoist priest with one more thing." Master Jia said sincerely, and glanced at Wanwan sitting next to him, "It's about the little girl Wanwan."

Is it about Wanwan?Xianghuang finally nodded, watching Master Jia instruct Butler Zhu to go down immediately to prepare, and then continue.

"With the ability of Taoist priests, I must already know my daughter's physique." Speaking of his daughter, Master Jia was a little depressed and frowned.

"Is it easy to attract evil spirits?" Xianghuang didn't know how to read faces, and he just guessed from the conversation between Master Jia and Wanwan.

Master Jia nodded: "My little girl has been crying since she was born, and she has been crying for three days. At that time, she was already purple and her eyes were hopeless. Fortunately, a Youfang fairy passed by and saved her. The fairy said, my little girl The crying is because she was entangled by lonely ghosts as soon as she was born, she has a unique constitution and is easily corrupted by evil spirits."

It turned out to be like this, Xiang Huang nodded to express his understanding.The erosion of evil energy will have two results, one is to fall into the way of demons and ghosts, and the other is to die from exhaustion of yang energy.

"My wife and I begged hard, and the elder fairy pointed out how to arrange the little girl's place to live, and used Taoism to protect the little girl from evil spirits. But he also left a word, saying that the little girl will have a catastrophe before her twenties. Only Kunlun can resolve it.” Master Jia looked at Wanwan, with reluctance and sadness in his eyes, “Now my daughter is seventeen, and there are only three years left.”

"Master Jia means that you want me to take Miss Wanwan to Kunlun?" Xianghuang just thought about it, and immediately understood what Master Jia was hesitant to say.

Seeing Xianghuang speak, Master Jia immediately stood up and was about to kneel down, and the wife sitting beside him also knelt down: "I also ask the Taoist priest to save the little girl's life."

"Get up quickly!" Xiang Huang hurriedly stood up and wanted to help the two of them up, but they couldn't say anything, and Mrs. Jia begged with tears.

Glancing at Wanwan, who knelt down with her parents and bowed her head in silence, Xianghuang was anxious: "I will take Wanwan to Kunlun, you all get up!"

Finally, when Xianghuang agreed, Mr. Jia thanked him and helped Mrs. Jia up with Wanwan.Although he was asking for Xiang Huang's nod, but thinking that his daughter was about to leave his side, his heart was filled with reluctance, and his eyes turned red.

"The road to Kunlun is far away, so my little girl will trouble the Taoist priest to take care of her." Master Jia sighed, "It's because we have a weak relationship with Wanwan. I just hope that Wanwan can avert this catastrophe and live in peace and happiness."

"Master Jia, don't worry, as long as I'm still alive, I'll take good care of Miss Wanwan." Xianghuang said with certainty, but also from the bottom of his heart.

"Thank you, thank you so much." Master Jia's voice was also a little choked up, and Mrs. Jia beside him was even more sobbing, "Okay, why are you crying, it is also our blessing that our daughter has a strange person guarding her past." He patted Mrs. Jia's hand.

Mrs. Jia just nodded, but couldn't stop crying.

Master Jia smiled shyly at Xiang Huang: "Let me take Madam in first." Seeing Xiang Huang nodded immediately, he stood up and helped Madam Jia to leave.

The room fell silent, with a vague heaviness.

Xianghuang looked at Wanwan secretly, although her expression was a little pale, there was a hint of melancholy in her brows and eyes.

It would definitely be sad to leave her parents, but Wanwan had to leave again.Xianghuang couldn't help frowning fiercely, how can Wanwan not feel sad?

Before Xianghuang could think of a way, Wanwan suddenly raised her eyes and met her gaze.

Peeping at the caught bag, Xianghuang was so panicked that he almost couldn't sit still and fell down.

"Little Zhuzi, I will follow you from now on." Wanwan's voice came over.

Xianghuang nodded again and again, puffing out her chest: "Don't worry, Wanwan, I will protect you well!"

Seeing Xianghuang's little appearance with her head raised and chest up, Wanwan couldn't help pursing her lips and chuckling: "Ha ha."

Hearing the laughter, Xianghuang looked over in surprise: "It's good to laugh, Master said, as long as you smile, things will always get better."

"Stupid bamboo." Wanwan couldn't help whispering, but the happy Xianghuang naturally couldn't hear it.

Now that the matter has been settled, and Xianghuang doesn't plan to stay in Huaijiang town, Jia's mansion soon began to prepare the things that the eldest lady needs for her long trip.

While Wanwan was going back to pack her clothes, Xianghuang went to the garden alone, went under the old locust tree and stretched out her hand to touch the trunk.

It was a rare sunny day in early spring, and the sun was shining warmly. Xianghuang felt the strange feeling coming from the old locust tree, so he closed his eyes and stuck to it.

A gust of wind blew by, and the leaves rustled. At this moment, a small boy suddenly appeared in Xianghuang's mind, bent over with fists folded with a warm smile, and then disappeared.

Opening his eyes, Xianghuang looked at the thick old locust tree in front of him, smiled and patted twice: "Come on."

The leaves swayed slightly.

After stomping back to the garden, Xiang Huang looked in the direction where Cang Lu was.

Although he couldn't see the cloud-shrouded Canglu Mountain, Xianghuang seemed to be looking at him: "Master, you don't know what's going on with your retreat and practice. It will take a long time to get out of the retreat, right? Now I have a goal, and I want to go all the way." Going to Kunlun."

"Master, you should have been to Kunlun, right? Master is so powerful, you can get there in no time by flying the imperial object. It is said that Kunlun is a sacred place of Taoism."

"Master, Xianghuang misses you a little bit."

After looking up for a while, Xiang Huang's eyes widened.

The small dot in the sky gradually approached and grew bigger until the whole outline could be seen.

That is clearly the sound transmission paper crane.

Stretching out his hand, Xiang Huang waited for the paper crane to stop in the palm of his hand, and a voice came from the paper crane: "Xiang Huang, why did you go down the mountain? Where are you now?" The words were unexpected and anxious.

"Brother Changfeng, I'm at Jia's house in Huaijiang Town, except for the heart-eating ghost last night!" Xianghuang smiled and said to Zhihe, "Experience is very useful, I'm leaving today, and I want to go with Miss Jia's family. Go to Kunlun, don't worry."

After Xianghuang finished speaking, he tapped the paper crane's beak, and the paper crane flew into the air with its wings fluttering.

"What's that?" Wanwan's voice came from behind, startling Xianghuang.

Turning around, Xianghuang saw that Wanwan had changed her clothes, without a cumbersome long skirt, without a delicate bun, and looked like a handsome young man with a jade-like crown and clear eyebrows.

Seeing Xianghuang's surprised appearance, Wanwan couldn't help smiling, raised her head slightly and walked up to her: "How is it?"

"It looks good..." Xiang Huang said dully.

Wanwan raised her eyebrows: "Little Zhuzi, don't you have other words besides good-looking?"

Xianghuang shook his head and took a closer look: "Your eyebrows?"

"I drew it on purpose, so that I can look more heroic." Wanwan nodded, "In words and deeds, I can learn from my elder brother. It is more convenient to pretend to be a man when I go out."

"En." Xianghuang agreed, and looked at Wanwan again, with some modifications on her eyebrows, but there was a slight change in the amorous look between her eyes, and it would not be easy to see if she assumed the posture of a master again.

"So, what was that flying away just now?" Wanwan held onto the fan with her right hand, tapped the Xianghuang lightly, and asked again.

Xiang Huang covered his head that didn't hurt, and said with a smile: "It's Brother Changfeng's sound transmission paper crane. He happened to go out when he was going down the mountain, so he didn't meet him."

"Oh? You can find it no matter where you are?" Wanwan seemed very curious.

"It depends on everyone's cultivation level. If I go further away, Brother Changfeng won't be able to find me." Xianghuang seemed very happy when he received the news from Changfeng.After all, on that mountain, apart from Master, Senior Brother Changfeng would come to play with her and bring her things.

"Is that so, then you know how to do it?" Wanwan thought thoughtfully, "At least I can report to my parents after I left for a few days, so that they can rest assured."

"Uh..." Xianghuang lowered his head angrily, "Master has never taught me, I only know Taoism."

Looking at the back of Xianghuang's head, Wanwan smiled and reached out to touch it: "It's okay, that's okay."

"Oh." Xianghuang had no choice but to answer, but he wanted to learn more in his heart.

"Okay, things should be pretty much packed, let's go too." Wanwan raised her hand and swept it over Xianghuang's head, as if waving something away, and changed the subject.

"Yes." Xianghuang nodded, turned around and waved to the old locust tree, and left with Wanwan.

Kowtowing three times to bid farewell to parents, Wanwan took the simple luggage and put away all the valuables for Xianghuang, and resolutely stepped out of the gate of Jia's mansion.

The outside of Jia's mansion was cold and cold, Wan Wan and Xiang Huang dressed as men came out of the door, she insisted not to be seen off, only Xiang Huang who was beside her saw her reddish eyes.

Stretching out his hand to hold Wanwan's cool hand, Xianghuang said, "Wanwan, we will come back after you have averted the catastrophe."

"Yeah." Wanwan looked at Xianghuang and smiled slightly.

In Huaijiang Town without Miss Jia and Xiang Huang, life has not changed.

People work and sleep at sunrise, and even Jia's mansion has returned to its usual appearance. Except for the second young master, who was punished severely by the family law, lying on the bed, everyone else is busy.

A few days later, a Taoist priest visited Jia's mansion, and the housekeeper invited him in to arrange board and lodging as usual, but he politely declined, and only said that he came to ask the master of Jia's family something.

Hearing that it was Xiang Huang's senior brother, Master Jia rushed back from the shop immediately.

"Master Jia, I'm here for my junior sister Xianghuang. I heard that she and your young lady are going to Kunlun. I don't know where they are going?" Changfeng wanted to find Xianghuang, who was regarded as his sister's love, when he returned to the mountain. But I learned that she actually went down the mountain to practice.

Uncle Yun Xizi was in seclusion, and Changfeng couldn't disobey his master's wishes, so he finally took the task and went down the mountain, and immediately came to Huaijiang Town.

It was sent that the Zhihe could not find Xianghuang, so he could only come here to try his luck.Fortunately, Xiao Xianghuang still left the clue of Miss Jia's family.

However, Master Jia looked at Changfeng in confusion: "I only have two sons under my knees, and no daughter."

Changfeng was taken aback, what's going on?

Although Mr. Jia was puzzled, he was still respectful: "Xianghuang Daoist left the next day after exorcising the ghost, and we don't know where she went."
