Youshu and Emperor Xuanguang died on the same day, and after leaving the body, they were preparing to go to the underworld hand in hand, but a vision suddenly erupted in the sky. The sky is full of stars dragging their slender tails and falling, and the scene is like a waterfall in the Milky Way, which is dazzling and scary.
"It turns out that the legendary general of the sky is like this." Emperor Xuanguang looked up and looked dignified. He pulled his unidentified lover into his arms and warned, "I don't know if I can send you back to another world safely, but staying here must be the only way to die. Live well and don't miss me."
You Shu was terrified, and was about to escape from his imprisonment, but his forehead was firmly held down by him, and then a surging force poured into his soul body, which made him continue to solidify, and then emitted a bright light. When the whole world is collapsing and falling, only this ray of light breaks through the layers of undercurrents and slides to a wider and wider sky.
A purple light suddenly appeared in the alley of a bustling town. When the light faded, a young man with long hair scattered, messy clothes, and bright tears on his cheeks appeared out of thin air. He looked around, his expression panicked, and seeing that this place seemed to be a deep alley, he hurriedly ran towards the place where the crowd was full of people.
What is "the sky will fall"? What is "return to another world"? What is "the only way to stay here is to die"? He recalled these words repeatedly in his mind, and an ominous premonition appeared in his heart.
He quickly ran to the entrance of the alley, but saw that the pedestrians on the road were still wearing ancient costumes, with long hair, and the buildings along the street were low and unique, not the high-rise buildings and dilapidated ruins in the apocalypse. Did not go back! His nerves suddenly loosened, he almost fainted, and he had to hold on to the wall beside him.
"Little brother, are you okay? Would you like to go in and sit for a while?" A kind-faced old woman came over and asked.
Youshu followed her fingertips and found that she had opened a tea house on the side of the road, and nodded quickly. He must figure out as soon as possible where this place is, and what dynasty it is, hundreds of years apart from Dayong, so that he can find his master. Subconsciously, he didn't dare to think about whether the master who gave all the mana to him could survive safely. He is Ziwei Emperor Star, so he should be fine.
When he was comforting the despair and fear in his heart over and over again, the old woman took him to the backyard, called a basin of well water, and persuaded him, "Little brother, look at your messy body, wash it up quickly. ."
Youshu complied blankly and looked into the basin, only to find a young and beautiful face reflected on the water surface, that was him at the age of sixteen. In order to protect him from being shattered by the aftermath of the fall of the stars, Emperor Xuanguang involuntarily passed all the energy over and helped him condense the entity.
If you can't find your master again, what's the use of this body? It's better than the annihilation of fly ash! The more he thought about it, the more distraught he became. He held the edge of the basin with both hands and began to cry. The big tears fell into the water, causing ripples.
The old woman saw that her nose was sore, and while stroking him, she asked in a low voice, "Little brother, what's wrong with you? Are you separated from your family?"
"I'm separated, I'm still looking. I will find it, I will find it." Youshu cried out of breath, but her eyes became more and more determined.
The old woman echoed, and after he was in order, she led him into the house, saying that he was going to prepare meals. A five- or six-year-old little girl hid under the windowsill and peeked at him, her eyes filled with curiosity and a trace of scorching heat. She walked in with small steps and said foolishly, "You are so handsome, you look like a painting!"
The scene of crying was watched by a child. Shu was a little embarrassed, and beckoned her to come over, "You are not as handsome. Come here, uncle has something to ask you." He didn't carry any belongings, so he had to weave a Chinese knot with the silk thread in the bamboo basket and give it to the little girl, by the way. He soon knew from the other party's mouth that this was the capital of Dayan, and what year it was, he didn't know anything about the dynasties before Dayan.
Youshu wanted to find a few history books to read, but because he had no money, he had to hold back for the time being. Seeing that the old woman brought in a lot of home-cooked food, he quickly cupped his hands, "This old man, thank you for your kindness just now, and I will leave."
"Let's go after dinner?" The old woman quickly stopped her.
"But I didn't bring money, how could I eat for nothing." Youshu looked embarrassed.
"Hey, what is a meal! Come, come, don't be polite to me." The old woman stretched out her hand to pull, and the little girl also hugged his legs and tried her best to keep them.
There is no choice but to stay, thinking that I will make money in the future and then repay my kindness today, but after eating a few bites of food, I feel itchy all over my body, my bones are aching, and then slowly shrink, and it turns into a A snow-white puppy the size of a slap. He looked down at the short front paws, and then at the unattainable dining table, full of horror and disbelief.
Even more unbelievable than him are his grandparents. The old woman picked up the puppy from the chair and murmured, "How can it become a dog? I have been making animals for many years, but I have never made a dog!"
"Grandma, show me quickly, show me quickly, he looks so handsome, and even the beast he turns into is different from others." The little girl jumped and touched the puppy.
Make livestock? Turned out to be livestock? Youshu finally understood what happened to her. The so-called animal creation is a kind of sorcery that can turn people into livestock, and then pull them out and sell them. He took all precautions, but he failed to guard against the elderly, the weak, women and children. After three lifetimes, he really had forgotten the life-saving rule in the last days: never underestimate the elderly and children.
What's worse is that he only knows that there is this kind of magic, and he doesn't know how to crack it, which means that he can only wait for death now. What if it becomes a cow, a horse, a sheep and other animals that can throw its hooves away to escape, and become a small milk dog the size of a slap
Youshu, who was pinched by the old woman on the back of his neck, had a frustrated look on his face, but in the next instant, his anger was high, only to hear the old woman sigh, "What can a dog do? Why don't you change him back and sell it to a small shop. "
"No, no, let me keep it!" The little girl tugged at the old woman's skirt and acted coquettishly.
While the grandparents and grandchildren were discussing, there was a shout from outside, "Grandma Sun, Grandma Sun? Give me a few pots of Longjing!"
The old woman threw You Shu into her granddaughter's arms and hurriedly greeted her. The little girl got her wish and was very happy. She put Youshu in her arms and ran out to play. Poor Youshu was so dizzy that she could only kick her short legs weakly, unable to even scream.
Several young men in regular clothes were sitting outside chatting, all with pale faces and soft voices, obviously eunuchs in the palace. This place is very close to the palace gate, and eunuchs and maids who have finished their errands often sit here waiting for their companions who have not yet returned.
Although the old woman is a witch, she doesn't dare to provoke the people in the palace, and she is busy with tea and snacks. The little girl squatted in the corner, poked Shu's butt with a wooden stick, and kept shouting "dog dog" in her mouth. Once Shu wanted to run, she would slap him and rub him a few times. . After several attempts, Youshu finally gave up, lying on the ground helplessly, whimpering from her nose.
One of the eunuchs was attracted by the sound of barking, so he approached to take a closer look, and his face changed immediately, "Mr. Sun, isn't this dog yours?"
"The neighbor's dog gave birth to a cub, give me one."
"You fart!" The eunuch suddenly shouted, startling everyone.
The old woman hurriedly lowered her head to hide her terrified expression. She only has the magic art of creating animals and has no self-protection power.
"What's the matter?" The rest of the people immediately gathered around and saw You Shu, who was barking on the ground, and exclaimed in surprise, "This dog is so cute and its coat color is very pure, it seems, it seems..."
They are all working in the cat and dog workshop, and all the precious cats and dogs in Dayan Kingdom can be distinguished at a glance. The leader carefully picked You Shu up, rolled his eyes, ears, nose and nose, rubbed his belly and small paws, and said in shock, "This is actually a Zang-sleeved dog, and it is a rare breed with mutated coat color. Ordinary Zangxiu dogs are mostly black and brown mixed, but it is completely snow-white without a trace of flaws, which is rare in the real world!"
After confirming Shu's "noble bloodline", the eunuch stared at the old woman and asked, "Mr. Sun, this Zang sleeve dog is a tribute from Tibet, and it is impossible for the nobles in the palace to raise it. How can you be a commoner? Where did you steal it?"
Seeing that a hat of "stealing tribute" was pressed down, if the crime was convicted, skinning and cramping would be considered minor, and maybe he would be executed by Ling Chi, but the old woman couldn't change the person back, so she had to pick up her granddaughter and threw it into her hand. The projectile disappeared in a puff of black smoke.
Several eunuchs were stunned for a while before they remembered to report to the official, and then brought this pure white Zang sleeve dog into the palace. Youshu felt unlucky at first, and secretly rejoiced when she learned that she was "noble and extraordinary". If not, he will be killed by that little girl sooner or later, or even get tired of playing. Children who grew up in the hands of that kind of temptress have no idea what human nature and compassion are.
Like human society, cat and dog workshops also have distinctions between noble and lowly. Although they are all rare and precious breeds on the market, there is a huge difference between tribute and non-tribute, and there is also a natural gap in coat color and temperament. Youshu is not only a tribute, but also has a pure and rare coat color, a docile and well-behaved temperament, and is the best of the best.
The eunuch director of the cat dog shop quickly reported the matter to the emperor, lest the concubines and concubines would take a fancy to this Zang sleeve dog and call him a difficult person.
You Shu was just locked in the cage, but before he could adapt to the environment, he was taken out again. After weighing, he put it into a more compact and delicate gold wire cage and took it out. The two eunuchs who were in charge of escorting him walked and talked in a low voice, "The emperor really still loves the seventh prince the most. I heard that we can get a pure white Zang-sleeved dog, so let's send it to Ganquan Palace immediately, other nobles can't even look at it. take a look."
"No matter what, the seventh prince has suffered on behalf of the emperor. If he hadn't drank the poisonous porridge that should have been presented to the emperor, he would not have ended up with a paralysis. Everyone else is useless.
"That's true. The emperor loves Concubine Hui and the eighth prince so much, and it's also a blessing for the seventh prince. But the seventh prince has a erratic temperament. Although he is inconvenient to move, he is extremely disgusted by living creatures, and he is afraid that he will not be able to keep a dog."
"If he doesn't like it, the emperor will give it to the eighth prince if he changes his hand. The nobles of other palaces should be jealous again."
"Shh, be quiet."
The two looked left and right, and fell silent, not noticing the thoughtful expression on the puppy in the cage.
In Ganquan Palace, Emperor Jing, the lord of the Kingdom of Dayan, was chatting with Concubine Hui. Two twelve- or thirteen-year-olds were sitting beside them. One of them had a bright smile and a cheerful disposition, and the other was sitting in a wheelchair with his head lowered. thinking about something. He only showed a profile face, but his eyebrows were drawn into the temples, the nose was high and the eyes were deep, and his appearance was extremely handsome and graceful. When You Shu was brought into the main hall, the cheerful young man hurried over and exclaimed around the cage, but he only glanced lightly, his eyes full of coldness.
Lord, Lord? Youshu stared at a handsome face that suddenly enlarged, unable to believe her luck. He also thought about whether he would meet the master when he entered the palace, but he did not expect it so soon. Thank God for blessing! He immediately changed from a shriveled state to a vigorous one, strode his short legs and ran to the cage, groaning at the boy.
"Father, it likes me!" The cheerful boy declared triumphantly.
"This is for your royal brother. If you like it, I will ask someone to find another one." Emperor Jing said softly.
brother? Only then did You Shu notice that there was still a person sitting in the corner who looked exactly like the master. Are they twins? So the question is, which one is it? Or both? You Shu, who had been fooled for a lifetime, was completely stunned. She tilted her head to look left and right, raised her small paws and scratched her head, her movements were very silly and cute.
Seeing this scene, the icy-faced boy curled the corners of his lips in a rare way. Jingdi Longxin, who had been following him all the time, beckoned, "Bring the puppy to let the Seventh Prince have a good look."
The eighth prince still didn't give up and begged, "Father, my son also likes this puppy very much, can't I give it to my son?"
"Let's do it, you each take something to tease it, if it runs to whoever, who is its owner, is that good?" Concubine Hui said with a smile.
At this time, You Shu had already determined that the boy in the wheelchair was his master. The master will never pretend to be innocent while coveting other people's things; he will never bully a bad person, let alone his brother.
Knowing that his siblings are sick and need more care and love, the cheerful young man still fights and robs them, and his character is clear at a glance. What's more annoying is Concubine Hui. As a mother, shouldn't she take more care of disadvantaged children? Why even make that suggestion? Some Shu was so angry that she had just acted coquettishly at the cheerful young man, but now she took a few steps backwards and barked.
It's a pity that his angry expression was hidden in the fluff, and no one saw it, which made the Eighth Prince chuckle, "Concubine Mother, look, it's calling me."
"I have already said that this is a gift for Lao Qi." Emperor Jing was helpless.
"Let them play together." Concubine Hui smoothed things out.
The seventh prince finally said, "Since the younger brother likes it, then give it to him. Erchen's disease is serious, and I'm afraid I can't stand the mess of cats and dogs."
While speaking, the eunuch had opened the cage. When a Shu saw that the master wanted to give himself to others, he hurriedly ran over with his short legs, and the man stood up, scratching the hem of the master's clothes with his two fat and short front claws, making an extremely aggrieved grunt.
The seventh prince's dark eyes gleamed slightly, but somehow his eyes couldn't move away from the puppy. It was a snow-white mass, and it ran like a rolling ball, and it was exceedingly lovely, cuter than any creature he had ever seen. Its expression is still so agile, as if a little aggrieved, a little anxious, and there are countless joys and excitements. It can be seen that it likes itself much more than the old eight.
The seventh prince's heart trembled, and he quickly bent down to pick up the puppy, gently supporting its soft buttocks. The nausea he imagined did not appear, and before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the puppy had already swooped on his face, desperately licking his eyelids, nose, lips, etc., creating a wet glow.
"Oh! Hurry up and hold the puppy here, Xiao Qi can't stand it!" Concubine Hui exclaimed.
Emperor Jing sent the palace servants back with a gratified smile. The son is fine, he has never been so happy since he was paralyzed. He was laughing lowly, stroking the puppy's head and belly lightly, trying to get closer to kiss its wet eyes and tip of nose, his face full of tenderness. He finally regained the vigor of a young man.
The eighth prince clenched his fists with his hands in his sleeves, pretending to be brisk and said, "It seems that the puppy also likes the emperor brother very much, so let's raise it together? The emperor brother, put it on the table and let's feed it a little something. "
"Has it eaten?" The Seventh Prince looked at the eunuch of Cat Dog Fang.
"Your Highness Qi, I ate a bowl of minced meat porridge before I came, and I should be able to eat a little more now. This is a cake specially prepared by the cat dog shop, and it needs to be broken and fed. The newly born puppy has a very delicate stomach. Weak, milk, raw eggs, foods that are too sweet, salty, and hard will not be eaten, and you will get sick." The eunuch explained briefly.
The Seventh Prince listened carefully, and finally ordered, "When you leave later, write down the precautions. The more detailed the better." Then he took the cakes handed by the palace maid, broke them into pieces and fed them slowly.
When the puppy eats, it is completely swept away by the tip of the tongue, and the remaining residue is also licked clean. The small and soft tongue coating with a little barb slides over the skin, leaving a string of numbness and itching. The Seventh Prince's heart trembled. This feeling is definitely not nausea, but enjoyment and addiction.
He fed a small piece, followed by another small piece, turning a deaf ear to Huangdi's request to put the puppy on the table. The desktop is cold and hard, which will freeze it, but your arms are the warmest and most comfortable. Besides, he doesn't like people touching the puppy very much, even if he takes one more look.
The eighth prince pleaded several times but did not get a response from his brother. Concubine Hui patted his head distressedly, but Emperor Jing waved his hand and said, "Your brother rarely sees something, so why are you arguing with him? Why are you so ignorant?"
The eighth prince's face changed slightly, and he quickly said that he knew something was wrong, the puppy was too cute, and he liked Yunyun too much. Concubine Hui also blamed the younger son and taught him to be respectful to his brothers and sisters. Emperor Jing was satisfied, he sat for a while and hurriedly left. Concubine Hui and the eighth prince stood under the porch to send off the holy car, and they slowly turned around when they disappeared.
The eighth prince took a piece of cake and moved to tease the puppy beside his brother, but he was pushed away with a cold face.
Although the appearance is the same, Youshu is extremely disgusted with the Eighth Prince. He barked and barked a few times, and the fluff on his back stood upright, fully showing his hostility. Seeing the eighth prince sticking the cake up to his nose to lure him, he quickly turned his butt and burrowed his head into the collar of his master's shirt. Leaving a small tail to wiggle gently.
This loyal, pitiful and lovely appearance made the Seventh Prince laugh for the first time in the world, and immediately covered its exposed little butt to prevent it from falling out.
The eighth prince's eyes were red, and he was furious, "Mother concubine, I want this puppy! You ask the emperor to give it to me."
Concubine Hui ordered naturally, "Lao Qi, give the puppy to your imperial brother. You have limited mobility and can't even take care of yourself, so what pets do you keep?"
Having become accustomed to his mother's cold words and inconsistencies, the seventh prince did not feel disappointed or sad. He really has no hope in this life, and he is indeed a waste person, so it is no wonder that others despise and neglect. He can give all the rewards from his father to the eighth, but this puppy can't. It can make him laugh, fill his heart with joy and tenderness, and make him feel that life is such a beautiful thing.
"No, it's mine." He flatly refused.
"What did you say?" Concubine Hui said in disbelief, "You don't listen to Concubine Mu's words?"
"My father gave it to me, this is the imperial decree. If you take it away, I will go to the father to appeal. If you don't want to end up with a bad reputation of disrespecting the decree and bullying your disabled brother, you should stop." When the words fell, the seventh prince waved his hand and ordered the maid who was close to him to push the wheelchair back to his palace. The palace maid gave a quick look at Concubine Hui before she moved.
Concubine Hui was so angry that she fell to her knees, but because there were still many palace people in the palace, it was difficult to scold loudly. The eighth prince had never seen the tough and cold side of the seventh, and was a little shocked, unable to return to his senses for a long time.
You Shu once guessed that the master who gave up his star position and lost his mana would definitely have a hard time, but he didn't expect it to be so difficult. His mother did not love him, and his younger brother was ostracized. Although his father had intentions, he was slightly negligent due to his busy government affairs. To make matters worse, he was paralyzed and had to spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair.
And all this suffering is self-inflicted. Thinking of this, Youshu felt distressed and angry, climbed to the shoulder of the master, barked at Ganquan Palace for a while, and then hugged the master's face with her fat and short front paws, and leaned in to lick and kiss, her nose snorted. A soothing sound of humming.
The seventh prince put his hands under its armpits, raised it up and looked at it, with a lot of smiles in his deep eyes, "Are you feeling sorry for me?"
You Shu wanted to nod, but because the palace servant was present, he had to bark instead.
"It turned out to be really distressing for me." The seventh prince laughed loudly, kissing its forehead for a while, its nose for a while, and its little mouth, claws, and belly for a while, comforting in a low voice, "I'm fine. No. Those who enter my heart won't hurt me in the slightest. Although I'm not good at doing things, it's not a problem to take care of you, so don't care about the rumors of others."
In turn, Youshu, who was comforted, felt more and more guilty, and touched her master's lips with a pink pad, but he held it carefully and kissed him a lot. When he got this puppy, his current mood can only be described in the words "like a treasure, ecstatic".
