He Shouzheng invited Xia Yu and Wen Xinyi into a thatched house, which was the same as other thatched houses, with the same appearance and the same internal furnishings, a wooden (bed chuáng), a table, two chairs, and some pots and pans for daily necessities.

He Shouzheng said: "The Burrow is shabby, and it makes you laugh. ”

Xia Yu said: "President He is polite. ”

He Shouzheng picked up a large jar in the corner, took two bowls, and poured out two bowls of water from the big jar.

He Shouzheng said: "Xinyi, Xiaoxia, I have difficult conditions here, and there is nothing to entertain you, if you are lazy, you can drink a bowl of water from the mountain stream." ”

Wen Xinyi said: "Uncle, in front of your niece, don't be so polite. ”

Xia Yu picked up the bowl, took a sip of water, his eyebrows fluttered, and said: "Well, it's delicious, it's delicious, it's delicious, the clear water of this mountain stream is naturally sweet, and it's better than the elixir and jade liquid in the city." ”

"If it's good, you can drink a little more, we don't have anything else, the clear water of this mountain stream, what we have in Datong is enough. ”

He Shouzheng was sitting on the wooden (bed chuáng), Wen Xinyi and Xia Yu were sitting on the chairs, and there were three people sitting in this small thatched hut, which immediately seemed a little crowded.

He Shouzheng chatted with Wen Xinyi and Xia Yu, Xia Yu was full of curiosity and asked, "President He, why did you think of creating a Datong Society in this big mountain?"

After listening to Xia Yu's question, He Shouzhengshen (情qíng) was gloomy, sighed, and said: "At the beginning, I was also a rich young master, a gentleman, the youngest son of my father, and my life was carefree. Later, my father died, and several older brothers fought over the family property, and they kicked me and my mother out of the house.

"My mother is a concubine, and her mother's family has no power, so she can only endure in silence when she is bullied. Shortly after I was kicked out of the house, my mother died, and I was left alone. ”

Hearing this, Wen Xinyi bit her lip and said, "How can the eldest uncle and second uncle be so excessive." ”

Wen Xinyi didn't know about these things that happened at her grandfather's house.

He Shouzheng said: "In the period of living on the streets, I was thinking, my brother and I are both brothers, breaking bones and tendons, why are they so ruthless, regardless of any kinship (affection), just kicked me out of the house."

"After thinking about it, I figured out that all this was selfish. There are a hundred kinds of ugliness and a thousand kinds of evil, and in the final analysis, it is a 'selfishness'. As long as selfishness can be eliminated, people will return to goodness and beauty.

So, I founded the Datong Society in the deep mountains and old forests, in the Datong Society, there is no private, only public, everyone is a part of the community. Everyone works together, the fruits of labor are shared together, no one can get more, and no one will get less. ”

Xia Yu felt that He Shouzheng, the Datong Society, was too idealistic, and could a creature like a human being really completely eliminate selfishness?

Xia Yu said: "President He, I take the liberty of asking, how is the development of Datong Society now?"

He Shouzheng smiled and said: "The development is very good, in recent times, we have absorbed a lot of new members, who voluntarily gave up the superior life in the big city and came to us to jointly create our Datong world. ”

Xia Yu asked, "Is your life completely self-sufficient?"

He Shouzheng said: "Many of us are not authentic farmers, and we don't grow much grain, so we can't be self-sufficient for the time being. ”

"Then how do you stay alive

Live?" Xia Yu was a little surprised.

He Shouzheng said: "God takes care of us, there is divine water in this mountain, every month I will go to get some divine water, and then transport it to the outside market to sell, and after making money, I will buy some daily necessities, transport it back, and send it to the members." ”

"Is there divine water in this mountain?" Xia Yu and Wen Xinyi asked, their eyes widened.

He Shouzheng said: "Yes, this divine water cures all diseases, ordinary people drink strong (body shēn) to strengthen their bodies and prolong their lives, and martial artists drink it to expand their muscles and bones and enhance their cultivation." In the bazaar outside, our sacred water has long been booked. ”

Wen Xinyi asked, "What does the divine water look like, where is it?"

He Shouzheng said: "This divine water is red, in the mountains, the specific location is only known to me. ”

Every month, He Shouzheng would go to the mountains to fetch divine water with a jar alone.

He Shouzheng didn't want to say it, Wen Xinyi and Xia Yu also understood the sophistication of people (情qíng), so they didn't ask more.

At this time, a member of the club panicked, ran in, and shouted: "President, no, Lu Gang is injured, very badly." ”

He Shouzheng hurriedly ran out with the member, and Xia Yu and Wen Xinyi also ran out.

I saw two members supporting a person and walking towards him, this person lowered his head, his face was pale, and blood flowed from his mouth.

Xia Yu and Wen Xinyi looked at it and were taken aback, this guy was the robber who was injured by Xia Yu.

Although there are heart goggles to protect the body, Xia Yu's heartbroken palm still beat the robber very lightly, and the robber vomited blood all the way and ran back to Datongshe.

He Shouzheng stepped forward and asked, "Lu Gang, what's wrong with you?"

Lu Gang didn't find Xia Yu and Wen Xinyi, covered his mouth (chest xiōng), and said: "President, Liu Cai and I were picking mushrooms in the mountains and met a demon beast, Liu Cai was killed by the demon beast, and I was injured by the demon beast. ”

"What, Liu Cai is dead," He Shouzheng and the members of the club exclaimed.

Xia Yu stood aside, looked at Lu Gang, and said, "The Black Wind Shuangsha turned out to be a member of the Datong Society. ”

Wen Xinyi said, "No, I'm going to tell my uncle." ”

Wen Xinyi was in a hurry and was about to step forward, Xia Yu took Wen Xinyi's hand and said, "Don't worry, wait a minute." ”

"What are you waiting for, the Datong Society was created by my uncle with great effort, and how terrible it is to let a robber hide here," Wen Xinyi said.

Xia Yu's gaze swept over those members (身shēn) and said, "I think there is more than one member of this Datong Society who has problems, and this is not the only one Lu Gang. ”

Wen Xinyi was stunned for a moment, looked at those members, and said, "Who else has problems?"

Xia Yu was a human being in his two lives, breaking into the rivers and lakes, and those eyes can see people's hearts.

Xia Yu said: "I still can't say who is not good, I have to take a closer look, in short, there are many doubts in this Datong Society." ”

On the other side, Lu Gang's injuries are getting worse and worse, and he is about to die. He Shouzheng helped him, took out a small medicine bottle, opened the medicine bottle, and dripped out a drop of red liquid, this red liquid is divine water.

He Shouzheng takes the divine water every month, and will keep some of it, and if a member is sick or injured, he will give them a drop of divine water, and the effect will be immediate, and the injury will soon improve.

He Shouzheng dripped the divine water into Lu Gang's mouth, and Lu Gang's face regained some blood, took a few breaths, blinked his eyes, and changed from the ghost

I walked around the door, picked up a life, and came back again.

He Shouzheng instructed the two members of the society on the side and said, "You help Lu just go down to rest." ”

The two members helped Lu Gang to walk towards the thatched house, Lu Gang raised his head, saw Xia Yu and Wen Xinyi, was stunned, and his legs were weak in fright.

"Gangzi, what's wrong?" the two members asked.

"Nothing, nothing. ”

Seeing that Xia Yu and Wen Xinyi didn't speak, Lu Gang also looked away, pretending not to know Xia Yu and Wen Xinyi, and was supported by two members and went back to the room.

As soon as Lu left, several carriages drove over and stopped in the square. The driver who drove the car, who was also a member of the Datong Society, lifted the blankets covering the car, revealing large wooden barrels, and shouted: "The wine is coming, everyone come and unload the wine." ”

Xia Yu said: "The life of this Datong Society is good, and there is still wine to drink." ”

He Shouzheng heard Xia Yu's words and said: "Actually, we usually don't drink in Datong Society. ”

Xia Yu asked, "Then what's the matter with these wines?"

He Shouzheng showed a little shyness and said, "Tonight is my wedding, and these wines are reserved for the wedding banquet." ”

Xia Yu and Wen Xinyi were very surprised, they didn't expect them to come so coincidentally, just in time for He Shouzheng's wedding.

Wen Xinyi smiled sweetly and said, "Uncle, why didn't you say it earlier, congratulations to uncle, uncle congratulations." ”

Wen Xinyi and Xia Yu congratulated He Shouzheng together, and Wen Xinyi asked: "Uncle, where is my aunt from, what does she look like, and how old is her?"

He Shou smiled and said, "Your aunt is a member of our Datong Society. ”

He Shouzheng has always been single (身shēn), and after founding the Datong Society, many people came to join the Datong Society, and they were like-minded with him and chased their dreams together.

Among these comrades, there was a girl named Xiaoyue, in her twenties, who was pure and pure, and was the most loyal follower of He Shouzheng.

He Shouzheng is a big man with thick lines, living alone, there are many inconveniences. Xiaoyue often helped He Shouzheng wash clothes and mend socks, and the days were long (日rì) for a long time, and there was a spark of love between the two people.

Some time ago, Xiaoyue plucked up the courage to confess to He Shouzheng. He Shouzheng refused at first, he felt that he was a poor bastard, he had no money, and he still had to chase his ideals and marry Xiaoyue, for fear that he would wronged Xiaoyue.

Xiaoyue told He Shouzheng that she admired He Shouzheng from the bottom of her heart, and what she (loved) was He Shouzheng's persistence, and what she loved was He Shouzheng's greatness.

The members of the club knew about it, and they also made a match, Datong has been established for so long, and has never held a wedding, this first wedding, everyone must do it well, happy.

The members bought wine from the outside market, and also hunted some game in the mountains, and the whole Datong Society was busy with lights, and there was a festive atmosphere everywhere.

Xia Yu said to Wen Xinyi: "Elder, I knew that your uncle was married, so we prepared some congratulatory gifts, how embarrassing it is to be so empty-handed." ”

Wen Xinyi said: "My uncle is not a worldly person, he will not find fault with us. ”

Xia Yu said: "I didn't prepare a congratulatory gift, so I'll go and help do some work." ”

Xia Yu rolled up his arms and sleeves, and stepped forward to help the members with their work, Lu Gang stared at Xia Yu in the dark, a pair of eyes (yin yīn) were sensible, more poisonous than poisonous snakes.
