Chapter 26 You Can't Raise a Phoenix

The platinum peacock walks among the clouds with its long tail feathers.Yao Bai woke up leisurely, the Buddhist meeting was over, and the crowd had almost dispersed.Although his fairy spirit woke up earlier, he still felt lazy and weak all over.

He lay on Wen Bufan's shoulders, his dark eyes rolled around.

After a while, he found that Wen Bufan was walking directly to the vast sea, and it seemed that he had no intention of sending him back to the small bamboo house.Yao Bai finally lay down comfortably, and even raised his paws, so happy that Wei Yu couldn't help shaking.

This is the second time Wen Bufan took him home, Yao Bai thought happily.

The furnishings in the thatched hut have hardly changed, a small table, a bamboo couch, a bookshelf occupying the entire wall in the innermost part, and a cluster of pampas grass near the window.

Wen Bufan put him on the small table, opened the door and went out.When I came back, I took a small saucer and a large bowl with a round mouth in my hand.There was clear water in the plate, and a few fresh green fruits in the round bowl, with water marks from washing on them.

Yao Bai approached and wanted to drink some water first, but when he lowered his head, he saw the shadow in the snow-white porcelain bottom.He blinked: Good guy, it's exactly the same.

Reassuring myself at this time that perhaps Wen Bufan's memory is not very good and it's useless not to recognize him.Yao Bai was a little frustrated, and suddenly he didn't want to drink water, and he didn't have an appetite for fruit.He folded his wings in front of his body, kicked his legs and sat down on the table, not knowing who he was angry with.

In short, very angry.

Although he is a small bird the size of a palm, his body is fluffy and curled up like a ball.Wen Bufan turned his head and saw his chubby back, and he was keenly aware that he was a little angry.

Wen Bufan casually took a fruit and handed it to him, "Don't you like it?"

Yaobai patted his wings, and he didn't know where the temper came from, and he shouted unhappily: "You used to eat bugs for me before, and they were still the kind with mud!"

Wen Bufan was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "That's because I didn't know you were a phoenix." He said and passed the fruit forward.

Eat what is brought to your mouth, of course.Yaobai opened his mouth to grab the fruit, and quickly picked up the flesh with his sharp beak and ate it.

"Why did you leave Wenyuan Mountain?" Yao Bai raised his head and asked.What he actually wanted to ask was why he didn't abandon him without telling him, but it was too unpleasant to ask.

He was the bird that was picked up, and Wen Bufan was the weird monk who picked him up.They meet again in another identity, all the concealment and misunderstanding can be revealed tacitly, and each other's face is still there.

Ke Yaobai suddenly became stubborn: "I have been waiting for you on the mountain for a long time. I also fed the rabbits for you and cleaned the house for you. Later, it rained heavily and a corner of the thatched cottage collapsed. I thought you would not come back, so I left gone."

He finished talking like a babble, and he didn't care whether Wen Bufan would explain the sentence that was similar to a question at the beginning.

Anyway, what he wanted to say has already been said: I am very sad and wronged after you left, and I want to tell you.

Wen Bufan was silent, his eyebrows lowered.Yaobai's incomprehensible emotions filled his calm eyes.Yao Bai was a little stunned, because it was very rare for Wen Bufan to have other emotions on his face.

After a strange silence, I heard Bufan say: "I'm sorry, I seem to have done something very bad."

The nameless resentment in Yaobai's heart has long been exhausted, and he feels guilty for seeing and hearing so much.Who is Wen Bufan? It's not a mortal monk who spends time on Wenyuan Mountain to plant flowers and raise rabbits. He is a Buddha with a high status in the Brahma Realm.Thinking about it like this, he felt more and more that he shouldn't care too much.

But he was arrogant in his bones, and he had just shouted angrily that he must never bow his head and make amends in this meeting.After hesitating for a while, Yaobai stretched out his head and pushed the bowl forward, and said with some coyness: "It's very sweet, would you like to eat one?"

Wen Bufan nodded and smiled: "Okay."

After a while, I heard Bufan say again: "The bugs I fed you in the past..."

"I didn't eat it!" Yao Bai yelled, "I gave it to the sparrow outside."

Wen Bufan smiled, "That's good."

After starting this conversation, Yaobai couldn't stop, stuffing fruit pulp into his mouth and muttering: "I didn't know that you really raised me like a tit, but you know that I have to worry about how to deal with those bugs every day." Thinking of that paragraph It's funny all the time, even though the worms didn't eat a bite, they still have to show a sensible look of thanking them for the hospitality.Yao Bai suddenly remembered something, and said: "The rabbits I wanted to eat the most at that time were actually those rabbits you raised, but you are so precious that you are not willing to give them to me." When I was in God’s Domain, I took a rabbit with me.”

At this point, he suddenly stopped talking and did not continue.However, the two people who spoke and listened obviously did not have a good understanding. Wen Bufan looked at him and asked, "And then?"

Yaobai muttered inarticulately: "It always competes with Ah Yue for a nest, and Ah Yue doesn't like it, so I roasted it and ate it."

Wen Bufan: "..."

The rabbit absorbed the aura of God's Realm, and its body fell into the belly of the divine bird. After reincarnation, it might have some good luck, Wen Bufan thought so.

Yao Bai looked up at him, a little surprised, "Aren't you even angry?"

Wen Bufan asked warmly: "Why should I be angry about its karma?"

Yaobai heard the words: eat as soon as you eat, it's none of my business, I don't worry about such small things.So he quickly swallowed the sweet fruit in his mouth, raised half of his wings and pointed to the outside, blinking his eyes in anticipation: "Then can I roast and eat the rabbits outside?"

Wen Bufan: "...?"

——

Of course the rabbit was not eaten, but Wen Bufan got a lot of bamboo fruits from somewhere, packed a big plate full and put it in front of him.Bamboo is hard to come by. A bamboo blooms and bears fruit only once in hundreds of years, and some bamboos will not bear fruit until they die.Yaobai looked at a plate of small yellow fruits and sighed faintly—it was really hard to find for him.

Phoenix loves to eat bamboo, this is really a big myth.I don't know which senior in ancient times liked to eat this, but it happened to be remembered and written in the book.Later, the classics were copied and imitated, and it has been passed down to this day.

Yaobai looked bitter and hatred, he broke open the crisp bamboo shell and pecked at the bamboo rice inside, after two mouthfuls he became more and more resentful towards that unknown senior.

What is there to eat in this tasteless thing!

Yaobai felt that he couldn't let things go, especially when he was with Wen Bufan.If you eat the bamboo fruit he sent today without saying a word, he will think that you like it, and he will send it again next time.It's like the endless plate after plate of small bugs on Wenyuan Mountain.

Yaobai chewed on the bamboo rice, feeling unable to remain silent.He thought so, and immediately did so, "Bamboo is not tasty, I don't like it."

Wen Bufan was originally sitting on the sidelines reading a book, but he paused, as if he was recalling whether he had made a mistake when looking up the classics.

"Did you read it in the book, right?" Yao Bai flopped down on his hand, and said, "The book must also say, 'Phoenix is ​​not a phoenix tree that does not live in it, and a phoenix tree does not drink from it'. You slept very comfortably on the velvet grass pillow. Here," he put his head into Wen Bufan's tea bowl, and took a big sip, "I like to drink it if it's not Liquan water."

Wen Bufan was a little stunned, picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, feeling a little embarrassed for a moment.

Yaobai sat on the pages of his book, tilted his head to confirm: "You don't know how to raise a phoenix." He didn't seem to feel that there was anything wrong with saying this, so he naturally put himself in the position of "Wen Bufan raises a phoenix." In the position of "spiritual pet".He even felt that it was dereliction of duty for Wen Bufan not to raise himself well - he could obviously raise the rabbit to be fat and beautiful.

Wen Bufan nodded honestly, "I don't know how to raise a phoenix."

"I can teach you." Yao Bai said, "It's actually very simple. First of all, you need to know what I like to eat."

Wen Bufan nodded to show he understood, "And then?"

"Then, this and then..." Yao Bai tilted his head and thought for a while, and found that he couldn't think of anything else except to eat.Just now I vowed to teach others, but suddenly I couldn't hang on, so I had to force myself and said: "You should first understand what I like to eat."

Wen Bufan had a smile on his lips, he didn't want to expose him, but he couldn't hold back, "I know, you love rabbits, especially roasted ones."

Yao Bai was pitiful, "Then will you give it?"

Wen Bufan said: "No."

Yaobai reluctantly gave in: "Chickens, fish, and so on are fine!" I don't think about your rabbits, can't they?

Wen Bufan was still ruthless: "There are no chickens in Brahma Realm. The fish in the vast sea are Buddhist holy spirits and cannot be eaten."

Yaobai stared at his legs, and he laid his corpse on the table as if he was dying, his wings covered his head, quite upset.

He was depressed by himself, and heard Wen Bufan walk away, and then there was the sound of pages turning from the bookshelf.

It's annoying, so I don't come to coax.

When he was about to fall asleep with anger, he vaguely heard a voice above his head saying, "Be patient for a few more days."
