Chapter 122: Temptation

"What should I do with you? Xu Wei lamented in his heart, and he was constantly calculating in his heart.

A streamer of light went towards the room full of books, fell into the mezzanine of a certain book, and Xu Wei flicked the candle flame that had not been lit for the time being, and then disappeared.

When you see one, you naturally have to meet the other.

With such a special personality, even Liuding and Liujia can't tell the difference, if you don't see it with your own eyes, Xu Wei knows how to make a trade-off, and in a short period of time, he can still afford to spend his time.

Panshi Village, a well-known poor place nearby, has many black stones on the ground and scarce crops, which can be said to be a difficult thing for farmers who make a living from farming.

Thatched house, stone mill, a skinny old donkey, is constantly grinding, a coarse linen hair slurry washed white, the young man still has two strength, half the way to the old donkey, occasionally the old donkey came from two whining sounds.

Poor and weak, Xu Wei's first feeling when he saw Jian Xiu, his luck potential is not weaker than Zhi Wenke, but it is a pity that the luck at this moment is just an ordinary gray color, which can be seen to be embarrassed, along the way, only the gray luck people in this Panshi Village are the most.

The potential luck has been suppressed, and it is the same as Wen Ke, no, it should be inferior to Wen Ke, after all, he still has this mansion to protect him, hundreds of servants, and his luck is naturally strong and ordinary people.

Read. This is Xu Wei's second feeling, in the thatched hut, there are still a few books, all of which are books on life teaching, such as the "Analects" and the like, which are subtle and meaningful.

Although Jian Xiu is poor, his face is optimistic, tired but he does not lose hope for life, once this kind of character stands on the cusp of the storm, he will definitely rise rapidly.

The demeanor is elegant, not contrived.

The two are in different situations, and their moods are also completely different.

Squeak, squeak, the wooden handle of the stone mill also kept making sounds, grinding more and more slowly, Jian Xiu still maintained the rhythm of breathing, pushing step by step, plus the strength of the old donkey, barely continued to push.

"After grinding these, give them to Aunt Zhao at the entrance of the village, and you can get ten silver coins again, and then you can live a few good days. ”

The beans were ground into soybean milk, and the white slurry flowing from the bottom of the stone mill kept flowing, and the flowing white slurry was silver for Jian Xiu, but fortunately, there was a stone mill at home, an old donkey, and occasionally helped some guys for the people in the village, barely surviving.

His figure, go to the city to do work, no one will pay attention to him, if he calculates and writes, there is no paper to practice calligraphy, his handwriting is also poor, make an account room and the like, others look at his clothes, and they will not give him half a chance.

Fortunately, Jian Xiu is open-minded by nature, but he believes that I am born to be useful, and I live happily every day, but he doesn't know that if it weren't for Xu Wei's arrival, I'm afraid he would really be alone.

Such a deep luck to wait until the day of erection, not the right time, the right place and the right people, as for the special personality of the character, Liuding Liujia is not a waste of hundreds of years, when the soul is dying, I met Xu Wei, too much to see accurately, looking for a special person, I don't know how many, but unfortunately most of them have turned into dust.

"Brother Donkey, hurry up, hurry up. ”

The stone mill turned faster and faster in Jian Xiu's eyes, and suddenly pushed the wooden handle of the stone mill to be broken, Jian Xiu snorted, fell a dog and ate, and the mourner got up, and suddenly his eyes were torn when he saw the scene in front of him.

The old donkey also fell to the ground, injured somewhere, with a pool of blood under him, constantly whining, and two lines of tears left in the muddy donkey's eyes.

"Brother Donkey!" Jian Xiu shouted, went up to check the old donkey's injury, didn't care about the stone grinding, he and the old donkey died together, spent seven or eight years, how could he live without the old donkey, suddenly sad from the heart, burst into tears, suddenly full of tears, wet the clothes on his chest.

The man doesn't talk lightly when he has tears, but he hasn't reached the sad place.

"This ......." Xu Wei could swear, he definitely hadn't moved yet, but he had this kind of thought, but before he could make a move, he suddenly noticed that the gray luck couldn't suppress his potential luck and jumped, and then there was the scene in front of him.

"It seems that your luck can't stand your downfall and wants to help you. Xu Wei said to himself, the so-called poverty changes, although his current life is poor, he has not met talents, and some people have died in peace.

People's hearts are full of thoughts, heaven and earth have feelings, Xu Wei's original purpose was to come for him, and he suddenly had some feelings, which would produce such a special change.

I saw that the old donkey slowly straightened up, and a pair of donkey eyes became clear, no longer cloudy, Jian Xiu, who was holding the old donkey, was suddenly overjoyed, and said, "Brother donkey, you're fine." That's great. ”

"Brother Xiu, I'm returning to the light, and I'll die in a few moments. ”

A deep voice suddenly came from the empty courtyard, which immediately startled it, his eyes widened, he pointed to the old donkey, and said tremblingly: "You...... You can even talk ....... ”

After being together for a long time, the skinny old donkey suddenly spoke out of his mouth, and he was naturally frightened.

"Brother Xiu'er, don't be frightened, I can't hurt you. Seeing him jumping towards the back, the old donkey immediately said, seeing Jian Xiu stopped suspiciously, and kept looking, the smell of blood did not seem to be fake, and the voice did come from the old donkey's mouth, only to see the old donkey pause and continue: "Brother, I am also a scholar, I naturally understand that everything in heaven and earth has spirituality, and my old donkey can only break through the restrictions when he is dead now, and he has been with him for a long time, and he doesn't want to see Brother Xiu'er continue to be confused after my death, so he spoke to remind." ”

Hearing this, Jian Xiu immediately apologized and said, "Brother Donkey, I misunderstood you, I don't know what advice you have, Jian Xiu will definitely work hard to do it." He was so relieved that he regarded it as the old donkey's last words.

"My time is running out, Niu Tou Ma Mian is estimated to come to take me away, tell Brother Xiu one thing, remember that on the broken stone bridge in the east of Huangshi Village next door, there is an old man who is bathing in the sun, he is a great supernatural person, he must go to apprenticeship, this is Brother Xiu'er, your only hope to change your life, remember, remember. ”

Jian Xiu didn't understand why the old donkey knew about this kind of thing, and he didn't understand this strange thing today, but after the old donkey finished speaking, black blood appeared from his eyes, ears, mouth and nose, and his body was extremely stiff, standing directly in the distance, without the slightest movement.

has been with him for a long time, after all, there is love, in the past, he still thought that if the old donkey died before him, he could eat a few meals of donkey meat and improve the food, but now he is even more ashamed. He said to himself: "Brother Donkey, when I come back, I will definitely give you a good life and a burial." ”

Seeing that the sun was no longer so strong now, he endured hunger and headed towards Huangshi Village, the two villages were almost in the same place, the dilapidated stone bridge was in disrepair, and the water flow below had dried up for a long time, and few people usually went there, and it was more than four miles away from here, and it was necessary to walk for a while.

Jian Xiu thought to himself, if he missed the old man, he would not live up to Brother Donkey's last expectations, he had also heard of strange people and strange things in the world, and there were many mentions in biographical novels, but he had never seen it.

Hurried all the way, and finally came to the dilapidated stone bridge, panting, and sure enough, I saw an old man, coarse clothes and short cloth, covered with dirt, with his chest open, and his coat on his chest was basking in the sun, and his expression was confused.

is not like a supernatural person, but an idle man in the village, who is idle here.

Jian Xiu was a little hesitant under the bridge, and he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, could it be all his hallucination, the death of the old donkey hit him too hard, and after thinking about it, at most, it was not a big deal to be mocked, but thanks for the gossip.

With such an idea, he tidied up his clothes, straightened his hair, and slowly walked towards the bridge with his fists clenched.

"Panshi villagers, scholars, Jian Xiu has seen his predecessors. ”

A clear voice came out of his mouth.

"Well.... Kindness. The white-haired old man covered his eyes, seemed to have just woken up from his pretense of sleep, and opened his mouth to say: "What are you talking about in this later life, my old man is a little behind his ears, and he didn't hear clearly. ”

Suddenly, Jian Xiu had more doubts in his heart about him being a great supernatural power, but he repeated it again, standing with his hands down, and his eyes did not squint.

"Hahaha......" The old man immediately laughed, "It's the first time I've heard someone call me senior, and my old man in the countryside looks like a senior. ”

The surname is Huang, it won't be the old man in the next village, Jian Xiu's heart became more and more determined, and he couldn't help but sigh, he was really fooled by the old donkey, could there be the rest of the people?

"Seniors, the juniors have a firm heart to study, and I implore the seniors to give the juniors a chance. ”

"Alas....." The old man didn't seem to continue to joke and continued: "It's not that I don't teach you, but I can't teach, I'm afraid you will recognize the wrong person in your later life." ”

Hearing this, Jian Xiu's face turned pale suddenly, he had spent most of the hour here, but he was weak and could miss it, maybe it was Brother Donkey who said it wrong, or his own conjecture, and his face was as if he had opened a dyeing workshop for a while.

"The juniors said goodbye. Jian Xiu didn't dare to take another look, so he held back his shame, said in his mouth, turned around and left.

"Wait. ”

I was overjoyed, and I thought there was a turning point, but when I turned around, I heard the old man say: "Old man, I was basking in the sun before, and a cloth shoe fell under the bridge, can you help in the future." ”

"Wait, old man. ”

Jian Xiu was still a little unbearable, and turned towards the bottom of the bridge, the water receded, and the mud was thrown on, and the cloth shoe happened to be halfway into the soil.

It took a lot of effort to get the shoes, and Jian Xiu's body also got a lot of mud, especially below the knees. The shoes in his hand were also stained with a lot of mud, Jian Xiu was kind, but he still wiped them and walked towards the bridge again.

His every move fell on the old man Xu Wei turned into, and he saw it clearly, the so-called law cannot be passed on lightly, etiquette cannot be abolished, and some tests are naturally necessary.

"Old man, your shoes. Jian Xiu held it in both hands and handed it to Xu Wei.

Xu Wei leaned on the railing of the stone bridge, and in order to get up and speak, he just lifted the sole of a foot full of dirt and stench, which happened to be not far in front of Jian Xiu.

Smelling the stench, the bile he hadn't eaten in the morning was a little unusual, his stomach was rolling, his face was extremely ugly, and he would have a seizure at any time when he saw it.

Xu Wei's eyes of the gods and spirits were really real, his luck fluctuated again, and his heart seemed to have regained his clarity, Jian Xiu thought in his heart, just once, he should be a good person.

Gently put on Xu Wei's shoes, and when he saw Xu Wei pretending to sleep, he nodded his head lightly, turned around and left.

"Where are you going, boy? ”

A childish child's voice came out from behind him, Jian Xiu was for a while, and suddenly he was enlightened, thinking clearly about the key to everything, how to forget the countless tests of masters mentioned in Zhiyi novels.

Overjoyed, as soon as he turned around, he immediately bowed to the ground, and said, "Apprentice, meet the master." Only then did he dare to look up, only to see a three-year-old immature child, wearing a lotus skirt, looking fairy and cute, and his face suddenly had some different colors.
