Tianting Kindergarten - Chapter 3
Only Bai Ze and Tianzun were left, one was forcibly assigned a task by the Jade Emperor, and the other’s palace was forcibly expropriated, both of them were unhappy, and they were silent for a moment, then Bai Ze sighed and walked down the jade steps slowly.
After walking a few steps, he found that Tianzun didn’t keep up, so he turned his head to look, and saw the little Tianzun in wide-sleeved robes, standing on the top of the high steps with his hands going up and down, with a serious look on his face.
The Lingshi steps were as high as the little guy’s knees. Seeing this, Bai Ze couldn’t help asking: “Master Tianzun, do you need this little god to carry you away?”
Tianzun glanced at him, his eyes full of disgust: “Absurd, I’m not so weak that I can’t even go down the steps.” As he said, he stepped on his short legs and stepped on the ground.
Master Tianzun, who was not used to the height of the steps, fell straight down with the auspicious brilliance all over him. Bai Ze quickly reached out to catch him and pulled him into his arms.
As a soft-hearted auspicious beast, it was impossible for him to watch a child get hurt. It had to be said that it must be for this reason that the Jade Emperor threw the immature immortals to him. Bai Ze sighed helplessly and walked down the jade steps with his head drooping in his arms while holding Tianzun.
The consequence of being brave was to lose a bigger face. Tianzun’s face became even colder, he lowered his eyes and refused to look at Bai Ze, but the small ears on both sides of his head turned red quietly.
Bai Ze was very surprised to see him like this, Tianzun could be shy? He couldn’t help pursing his lips and chuckling, wanting to tease a few words but didn’t dare, so he could only say something serious: “Tianzun, the little god has a question, I don’t know if you can answer it.”
Tianzun glanced at him: “You say it.”
“According to the Jade Emperor, the closer you are to the way of heaven, the sooner you will be affected. The Jade Emperor…” Bai Ze was shocked by Tianzun’s cold eyes, “I don’t want to be the Jade Emperor!”
“Heaven’s natural order.” Tianzun said slowly, raised his small face to look at the sky and his deep eyes reflected the sky marks left by Nuwa when she repaired the sky.
Back then, Nuwa smelted stones to mend the sky, leaving behind a sacred stone called Dingtian. This stone was now on Jade Emperor’s body, with this, he could avoid the power of reincarnation.
“Then, can you find a treasure similar to the Dingtian Stone?” Bai Ze walked out of the Lingxiao Palace with Tianzun in his arms and stepped onto the white jade arched bridge in front of the gate.
Cranes were drinking in the Tianquan water gurgling under the bridge, and fairies were dancing on the cloud platform not far away, and the heavens were full of their singing and dancing.
“There is only one Dingtian Stone, there is nothing to replace it.” Tianzun stretched out his white and tender little hand, patted Bai Ze’s arm, and motioned him to put him down.
“Shengjun[1] Bai Ze.”
The fairies on the cloud platform saw Bai Ze and waved the cloud silk on their bodies to greet him. The gentle and handsome Bai Ze had always been very popular among fairies.
Bai Ze nodded back with a smile, then comforted Tianzun in a low voice, the arch bridge was too slippery, he would put him down after crossing the bridge. In fact, he himself was a little reluctant and wanted to hug him for a while longer.
In the past, the high-ranking Lord Tianzun who would not speak a word for a hundred years had now turned into a soft and sticky doll, and was held in his arms. Thinking about it this way, he felt a strange sense of satisfaction in his heart. Bai Ze secretly spurned himself, and happily embraced Tianzun and jumped down the Jade Bridge.
“The god has returned to the heaven?”
“The god is well!”
The bridge was full of familiar gods, and it became lively all of a sudden. Because of an auspicious beast’s goodwill, many people in the heavenly court were friends with Bai Ze, and since they had not seen each other for many years, they came together to say hello to him.
“This is…” All the immortals were a little surprised when they noticed the child in Bai Ze’s arms and couldn’t help asking about the origin.
This child’s aura was too strong, and his whole body was full of brilliance. At first glance, he was not an ordinary child. It was difficult for people to miss it. The heavens were deserted, and it was rare to see such a cute child. Some fairies couldn’t help but reach out and want to hug him.
“Bao’er, give me a hug, sister has Baihua nectar for you to eat.” Fairy Baihua took out a bottle of nectar and shook it, trying to trick Tianzun into her arms.
Master Tianzun’s face suddenly turned cold, Bai Ze broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly avoided Fairy Baihua’s long nails with nectar painted on her hand.
The Jade Emperor had exhorted thousands of times, the matter of reincarnation to experience the vicissitudes of life was a secret, and it must not be revealed. Bai Ze couldn’t say much, he could only deal with it while laughing, looking for an opening to escape.
Seeing Bai Ze’s faltering, everyone’s eyes on him suddenly became strange.
“Shengjun, you…” Fairy Baihua looked at him, wanted to say something, but was too embarrassed to speak.
Bai Ze’s back felt cold when everyone saw him, as if he had done something wrong.
After finally fooling a group of immortals and running to a secluded place, Bai Ze exhaled and looked at the little Tianzun in his arms: “I can’t call you Tianzun in front of others, should we think of a different name?”
Fairy Baihua wanted to ask the boy’s name just now, but luckily he ran fast.
Tianzun looked at him and said expressionlessly: “Put me down.”
Only then did Bai Ze remember that he was still hugging Tianzun, so he quickly put him down and smiled embarrassingly.
The little Tianzun brushed his clothes and walked slowly in front with his hands behind his back, while the slender Bai Ze followed behind. After crossing the Rainbow Bridge and the Jade Lotus Pond, after a long silence, Lord Tianzun suddenly said, “Fu Li.”
“Ah?” Bai Ze, who was thinking about what to do with the kindergarten, raised his head blankly, unable to react for a while. What was Tianzun talking about.
Tianzun continued to walk forward without looking back, and flicked his light and wide sleeves, bringing up a few petals of peach blossoms falling in the air. The peach blossoms flew up, forming a mysterious formation, they then flashed in the air, scattered in all directions, and fell under the cloud road, where they turned into a light red flowing cloud. After a moment of silence, the clear and melodious voice sounded again: “You can call me Fu Li.”
Few people knew about this, and they all thought that Fu Li was just a prefix. But Bai Ze, who knew everything about the world and understood all things, happened to be one of the “very few”. He had known for a long time that Tianzun’s actual name was Fu Li, but he never dared to say it out.
Lord Tianzun actually allowed him to call him by his real name! After Bai Ze was stunned for a while, the corners of his mouth slowly rose bit by bit. In his lifetime, if he could call Tianzun by his real name once in a fair manner, even if he had to be the principal of a kindergarten for thirty years, it would be worth it!
Just as he was being happy, he caught a glimpse of two weird-looking guys not far away, from the corner of his eye, one tall and one short, coming this way. Bai Ze immediately suppressed his smile, pulled Fu Li, then he turned around and left.
“Hey, God, where are you going? Don’t you want to come to our house?” Qian Liyan started to say hello from a long distance again.
These two brothers, on seeing in all directions, the other listening in all directions, there was nothing in the world that they didn’t know, in fact they knew a lot, and that’s not all, they liked to talk nonsense everywhere.
Bai Ze wanted to avoid them but was blocked by the fast-moving Qian Liyan. Seeing that he couldn’t dodge, he had to hide Fu Li behind him.
Qian Liyan saw it clearly and laughed loudly: “I haven’t seen you for hundreds of years, and the god had a son!”
Glancing at the nonsense talking guy in front of him, Bai Ze said angrily, “I haven’t married a wife yet.” Then seeing Fu Li, he turned around and left, not intending to say much to these two people.
Shun Feng, who had not come over until now, heard it, and immediately yelled loudly: “Wow, Shengjun, then you are married? I heard that Shengjun Nian[2] has liked you for a long time!”
Nian was also an ancient beast, with a body like a tiger. Among the mythical beasts, he was the only one that was similar to Bai Ze’s original form. In the past, Shun Feng’er used to talk nonsense, saying that it would be difficult for Bai Ze to marry a wife in this life, because there was only one Bai Ze in this world and the second one couldn’t be found. Qian Liyan always followed suit, saying that among the beasts, Nian was the only one who was similar to him, so it was better for the two of them to make do with each other.
Bai Ze staggered, almost fell, and was so angry that the top of his head was smoking: “Nian is a male, a male! I am also a male! How do we give birth?”
Shun Feng shook his big ears, and slapped his brother back: “Shengjun Bai Ze lives the same life as the sky, what do you do with the cubs?”
The two brothers looked at each other and nodded at the same time, thinking it made sense. Qian Liyan rubbed his chin, and slapped his brother again: “How do you know that it is the son of the god Bai Ze? Why could it not be the son of the god Nian?”
“I heard about it.” Shun Feng raised his chin and said very firmly.
“Who told you that? Why didn’t I see it?” Qian Liyan anxiously asked his brother.
Bai Ze stood silently by the side, unable to get in any words, realizing that he couldn’t understand these two guys at all, so he picked up Tianzun who was listening to the two talk nonsense seriously, and turned around and left angrily.
Yuqing Palace, located in the east of the Ninth Palace of Heaven, occupied a very large area. Outside the palace was a large fairy bamboo forest. The spring water brought in from Xingzi Waterfall passed slowly under the bamboo bridge stream, shining with dots of light. At first glance, one might think that the stars had fallen into the stream.
Because Tianzun liked to be quiet and thus there were no neighbors around so it was a good place to open a kindergarten and hide under people’s eyes.
Bai Ze and Fu Li stood side by side in front of the palace gate, looking at the three big characters of “Yuqing Palace” with mysterious brushwork, admired them for a moment, and said, “Fu Li, should we change the plaque to ‘Yuqing Garden’?”
His Excellency Tianzun glanced at him, walked into Yuqing Palace, flicked his sleeves, and closed the palace gate gracefully. With a bang, Bai Ze, who was trying to change the plaque, was shut out of the door.
Bai Ze touched his nose, which was almost flattened, and realized that he had said the wrong thing. After admitting his mistake outside the door for a long time, Bai Ze was allowed back in.
The Yuqing Palace was deserted. A book without words was hanging in the air, emitting a faint light, rising and falling with the breeze brought by people walking around. Two low tables and a few futons were all the furniture in Yuqing Palace.
Fu Li entered the door, picked a futon and sat cross-legged on it, as he continued to meditate with his eyes closed.
It was the first time for Bai Ze to enter Yuqing Palace, so he walked around curiously. Seeing that there was nothing interesting, he knelt down beside Tianzun and tilted his head and looked at him: “Tianzun, when will our kindergarten be closed?”
Fu Li opened his eyes, and replied helplessly: “Why would it close before it opened?”
Bai Ze curled his lips, sat down beside Fu Li, raised his hand, and conjured a picture of gods and immortals in the heavens. The more he looked at the roster, the more melancholy he became. It was okay to care for an obedient child as Tianzun, but someone who liked to fight like Li Jing would definitely not be easy to coax. The Jade Emperor also asked him to teach everyone, but he could neither make alchemy nor fight wars, let alone produce wind, rain, thunder and lightning. If this kindergarten was to be opened until the next time the sea changes, his hair would probably fall out of worry.
Fu Li looked at him, with a slightly imperceptible smile in his eyes: “When Laojun comes, we can discuss with him.” While concocting alchemy by the gossip furnace, a sneeze blew out the real fire of samadhi.
The fairy boy on the side hurriedly fanned the fan and fanned the flames back. The heat of alchemy was very important, and there could be no mistakes in the slightest. While fanning vigorously, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. Xian Tong turned his head and looked at Laojun who was beside him. His eyes almost fell out of shock, and he stumbled and called: “Old, Laojun…”
