A woman who has lost her husband and children, and even the youngest two children have been taken captive by thieves, leaving only a lonely family, in fact, she has long been exhausted and has the idea of suicide.

But at this moment, as if providence had made people, the child who had fallen off the cliff and never even found the bones came back. I really don't know if it's happy or sad!

Under the comfort of his mother, Chen Qingniu helped his elderly mother back home after offering incense in front of the graves of his father and eldest brother and second brother.

Now that there are two dolls, Lao Liu and Ah Qi, the family is very deserted, but without the father who is the head of the family, this family has long ceased to look like a home.

Looking at the vegetable porridge in the bowl in front of him, which was full of half a bowl of broken rice, and then looking at the few vegetable leaves floating on the rice soup in his mother's bowl, Chen Qingniu felt even more uncomfortable in his heart.

Stepping into the cultivation and running away from home through death, fantasizing that one day he would be able to ride the clouds and fog to every corner of this world, but as everyone knows, and Mo said that he just walked out of this small ravine to Anqing County, even if he walked out of Beicang Mansion and walked out of the Daxuan Dynasty, but so what? His roots are always here, in this small remote ravine.

Fortunately, Chen's mother is a mountain and wild woman, and she is very little, even if Chen Qingniu has been back for a whole day, she has not taken the initiative to ask Chen Qingniu how she survived, why she didn't go home, and where she has gone for more than a month.

There is no moon tonight, and under the dark night, Chen's mother sewed his already broken cloth clothes for Chen Qingniu with needlework and thread through a slight oil lamp, while Chen Qingniu sat bare-chested, quietly looking at his mother in this life.

In fact, her temples are already gray, in fact, her hands are old, and even the needles are a little trembling, in fact, whether in the past life or this life, parents are parents.

"You have grown taller and your body is stronger, and my mother used some of your father's clothes to sew them, and I don't know if they fit. ”

Chen Qingniu took the clothes handed by his mother and hurriedly put them on his body, squeezed out a bitter smile in the heavy grief and endless anger in his heart, and said with a tearful smile: "Mother, it just fits." ”

"It's good to fit, you are carrying Li Gui back to your hometown today, you must be tired after a day's walk on the mountain road, go to bed early." Mother Chen nodded, but did not smile, because this little joy in her heart really couldn't withstand the huge grief, where could she laugh.

After Chen's mother finished speaking, she got up and walked to the inner room on the side.

"Mother. ”

Chen Qingniu suddenly stopped his mother, suddenly took out a few pieces of white silver from his sleeve, put them in front of his mother, and smiled again: "Mother, let's go to live in the city in the future." The child didn't go home these days because he was rescued by a master on the rivers and lakes when he fell off the cliff, and that person had great abilities in the city, and all the villas were his. Now, the child is already the apprentice of that master, and he has been practicing martial arts with that master these days. ”

No matter what, Chen Qingniu decided to talk to his mother about his experience these days, not only not to worry the other party, but also to hope that the mother and son would not become angry because of the changes.

Obviously, Chen's mother didn't know much about what "masters", "villas" and "martial arts" Chen Qingniu was talking about, but she looked at the few pieces of silver on the table in a daze, but soon, she pushed the silver back in front of Chen Qingniu. hesitated for a moment, but it was obviously more like sorting out the language, and advised: "Old Five, so much money, my mother doesn't ask where you came from, my mother believes that you won't do those hurtful things, you quickly put it away, my mother doesn't want it, and I won't go to that city with you." You will marry a daughter-in-law in the future, raise a doll, the doll is big, my mother heard that the dolls in the city are going to enter the school, you have a chance now, if the eldest and second child are still alive, can be as promising as you, it will not be ......" As she spoke, Chen's mother choked up and cried again, but after all, it was in front of her own children, and she said strongly, "Daddy and mother have no ability in this life, what I want to do is not to starve you, and strive to pull up your brothers one by one." My mother is the only one now, and I was worried about you, but now it's okay, as long as you have a chance, my mother is not worried. My mother doesn't know any big truths, but the fifth child, you have to listen to your mother about this. Go to bed early tonight, wake up and go back tomorrow, go back to the city, this little ravine father and mother have lived all their lives, and your father and eldest and second child sleep there......"

As she spoke, the woman wept again.

Chen Qingniu hurriedly got up and came behind his mother, patting his back lightly, wanting to comfort him, but he didn't know where to start.

It's just that Chen Qingniu suddenly remembered a question, why did his mother say that he was the only one, and didn't the third and fourth brothers still work as long-term workers in Liu Youcai's mansion?

Chen Qingniu suddenly said: "Mother, what about the third brother and the fourth brother? They went to the landlord's house last year, and now there is such a ...... in the township."

"Don't ask, mother, please don't ask them, okay......?

Who knows, the woman who has been suppressing her emotions in her heart since Chen Qingniu came back is like the last straw in her heart being torn off, and she suddenly exploded emotionally, choked and walked quickly towards the inner room.

Standing in front of the curtain woven with bamboo strips, Chen Qingniu didn't go in after all, he didn't know why his mother had such a big reaction when she heard the third brother and the fourth brother, but he knew that it must have something to do with Liu Youcai's coming to this small ravine.

After blowing out the oil lamp, Chen Qingniu pushed open the door and came to the middle of the courtyard.

Now, three questions are flooding his mind.

First, the landlord Liu Youcai was rampant in the surrounding ten miles and eight townships, he naturally already knew, but although that person was a landlord and squire, he liked to do some things like to buy and sell to occupy the land, but in broad daylight, he dared to rob the child and commit murder, a landlord and squire, how did he come to be brave?

Second, obviously, Liu Youcai came to those children in the township from the beginning, and also asked to be under the age of ten, those children are all from poor backgrounds, and they have never studied if they have no strength, even if they are snatched back and sold, the risk is too great. What's more, this incident has never happened before, so why did Liu Youcai rashly do such a tragic thing?

Third, listening to Li Gui's narration during the day, that Liu Youcai was able to kick people away several feet away and break a willow tree with spare strength, the crooked neck willow tree at home Chen Qingniu naturally remembered that it was the thickness of an adult's thigh, and Chen Qingniu went to confirm that the willow tree was indeed broken, although Chen Qingniu's current ability can also do it, but that is also in the case of his use of vitality. Could it be that this Liu Youcai is also a cultivator? Or is this Liu Youcai still an innate martial artist hidden in the market?

After a long time, Chen Qingniu glanced back at the dilapidated house behind him, the mother's choking sound in the house did not stop, Chen Qingniu did not hesitate at all, and walked towards the mansion that the villagers listed as a forbidden place a few miles away.

————

As a landlord and squire, Liu Youcai's mansion covers an area of not extensive, the mansion is divided into four floors from the outside to the inside, and each floor is equipped with a courtyard wall, no matter day or night, there will be a courtyard outside the courtyard wall to guard it tightly, and the courtyard in the innermost courtyard wall is naturally Liu Youcai's usual living place.

The night is dark and windy, and the lights are bright.

In the inner courtyard, after Liu Youcai made sure that several ladies had fallen asleep, he got out of bed and walked in the direction of the study.

It's just that even in his mansion, Liu Youcai still seems cautious, if there is a night patrol of the courtyard, he will quickly hide in the darkness on the side, and only continue to walk after the guards leave.

"Squeak!"

Outside the study, Liu Youcai first looked left and right, and after making sure that there was no nursing home in Sixia, he pushed the door in.

However, the moment he stepped into the study, a cold voice sounded.

"You still have to be a rat at home, and you landlord have done a really pitiful job. ”

In the center of the study sat a young man in a long shirt, about the age of his early twenties, with long hair covering his face, his eyes gloomy, and his speech was obviously a little lacking in yang, which made people feel that this young man was a little more like a woman.

At this moment, the young man was looking at a book by a faint oil lamp, and did not look up.

Liu Youcai was not surprised by the young man who appeared in his study in the middle of the night, and he didn't care about the obvious cynicism of the young man, Liu Youcai went straight to the topic and said coldly: "What is the matter of calling me over tonight?"

"Hehe, you, you always speak so straightforwardly, but the surname Pang still speaks for you in front of adults from time to time, I really don't know how you sit in the position of the landlord to this day. ”

Seeing Liu Youcai standing there like a stake without saying a word, the young man closed the book, and it seemed that he no longer wanted to joke with this guy who was powerful on the surface but secretly liked to be a mouse, and said bluntly: "My lord said it, and I want it." ”

"Still?!"

Xiao was in Liu Youcai's state of mind that had been evil all his life, and he almost broke out in surprise.

"Hey, they're all people who are the emperors of the soil, why don't they have any concentration. The young man joked again, and then laughed darkly, "It's just some wild dolls in the mountains, do you need to make such a fuss?" Besides, you have been born twice this time, and you have five or six times of coming and going, and this time is not much, if there is less of this time, the adult will not be happy." ”

Facing the young man's strange tone, although Liu Youcai was not afraid, he also felt a cold sweat on his forehead, but he still had the courage to ask: "Nearly 100 boys and girls have been sent before and after, is it still not enough?" Vice Envoy Wen knows what that adult wants so many boys and girls to do? Although he is only a martial artist, he has never heard ......of it."

Boom!

Before Liu Youcai finished speaking, his left foot was forced to kneel to the ground by a force.

The young man looked at the finger that was as white as jade, chuckled and said, "Oh, I missed it", and then saw him turn his face like turning a book, and said sharply: "I know that I am a martial artist and still talk so much? Liu Youcai, do you really think that my little monk in the realm of refinement can't kill you, a famous innate master in the rivers and lakes? ”

"In three days, ten boys and girls. ”

The next moment, the young man squinted his eyes again and smiled: "Oh, look at my broken mouth, I should be beaten." Brother Liu is angry, come, sit down, drink a cup of tea to extinguish the fire. However, in the blink of an eye, the laughter became gloomy again, and Pi Xiaorou said with a smile, "This is the original words of adults, you are so self-conscious." ”
