Chapter 12: Coiling Dragon and Crouching Tiger

Late at night, in the dark Wulao Mountain, a man walked slowly in the dense forest.

This man is Ye Qing, coming out of the house, he really has nowhere else to go. So, I went to buy some cooked yellow paper and came to Wulao Mountain, twenty miles away.

On this mountain, there is a person who Ye Qing respects the most in his life.

Ye Qing didn't know his name, he only knew that the people in the village called him Lao Li Tou, and Ye Qing called him Third Master.

Lao Li Tou is a widowed old man, and he lived in the village when Ye Qing was very young. In Ye Qing's impression, Lao Li Tou always sat under the big tree at the door, smoking a spicy dry tobacco, and there were endless strange stories in his stomach.

Ye Qing lost his mother when he was a child, and the relationship between his family made him silent since he was a child. Most of the time, he sat in front of Lao Litou's house and listened to him tell stories about the outside world.

Some people say that Lao Li Tou was very beautiful when he was young, and some people say that Lao Li Tou is just a big liar, who knows? Ye Qing only knows that Lao Li Tou always has endless stories in his stomach.

When Ye Qing was ten years old, Lao Li Tou began to teach him to tie some horse steps or something. Zamabu is very hard, and Ye Qing doesn't know what Zamabu is for. However, since childhood, the harder it is, the more desperate he has to do it. After following Lao Li Tou for three years, Lao Li Tou began to teach him to practice some boxing.

It wasn't until he entered the army that Ye Qing knew how useful these punches Lao Li Tou had taught him. He was able to be selected into the special forces unit in two years, and became the divisional combat champion for three consecutive years, relying on the solid foundation laid at an early age.

Ye Qing has always felt that there must be many stories in Lao Litou's past. However, Lao Li Tou never said it, and Ye Qing never asked.

When Ye Qing was admitted to university, Lao Li Tou died quietly at home. Counting up, this year, Ye Qing has not come to his grave for five years.

Ye Qing originally planned to come to the grave again the next day, but he simply had nothing to do tonight, so he came to Lao Li Tou to accompany him.

Lao Li Tou's grave is halfway up the mountain, which is the cemetery that Lao Li Tou chose by himself when he was alive. When Lao Li Tou was buried very hastily, except for Ye Qing, no one gave him filial piety, and no one burned paper for him. His past is like Li Sanye engraved on the tombstone. No one knows his name, and no one knows his past!

When he was about to arrive at Lao Litou's grave, Ye Qing saw from a distance that there was some fire. Ye Qing was surprised, who would come to this mountain in the middle of the night?

Ye Qing slowed down and quietly walked towards the firelight, but was shocked to find that the fire was actually burning in front of Lao Li Tou's grave.

There are still two people standing in front of Lao Litou's grave at this moment, one is an old man with white beard and white hair, his face is red, and he has a bit of crane hair and childish appearance.

The other had his back to Ye Qing, and he couldn't see her appearance clearly at all. However, judging from the back, this should be a girl, and her figure is still very slim. His waist-length hair fluttered neatly behind his back, swaying gently like black water in the light of the firelight.

Ye Qing was even more surprised, these two people were obviously giving Lao Li a grave. It's just that what do they have to do with Lao Litou? Why did they come to the grave at night?

Ye Qing hid behind, not wanting to alarm the two of them, and was ready to wait for them to leave before going over.

He didn't wait long, and the old man finished burning the yellow paper, then turned his head to look at him, and said with a smile: "Friend, the mountain breeze is slightly cool, it is better to come and sit by the fire." ”

Ye Qing was stunned, how did this old man find out? This is too strange, right?

Now that he was discovered, Ye Qing did not continue to hide, and walked from behind the tree to the grave.

The old man looked at Ye Qing quietly, especially every step Ye Qing walked, he looked at it very carefully, as if he wanted to study Ye Qing thoroughly.

Although Ye Qing was surprised in his heart, he was not a curious person, so his expression was as calm as ever.

Walked to the grave, knelt down and kowtowed a few times, laid out the things he brought, burned a few pieces of yellow paper, and then turned to the old man.

Ye Qing didn't speak, because it was the old man who spoke.

The two looked at each other like this, and after a long time, the old man suddenly took a step forward, raised his hand and pressed it on Ye Qing's shoulder.

Ye Qing is so good, but he can't avoid this old man's blow. Being held down by the old man on his shoulder, Ye Qing only felt a strong force coming, and Ye Qing couldn't help but be surprised. The black bear is the strongest in the entire army, but the old man's strength is even greater than the strength of the black bear, which directly pushed Ye Qing to a stumbling position.

Ye Qing took a step back, dissipated some of his strength, and immediately bent over with his shoulders heavy, took a step from his horse, and stubbornly carried this blow.

However, the old man didn't continue to exert himself, and when he saw Ye Qing taking a horse step, he chuckled and raised his hand, and this force disappeared suddenly.

Ye Qing breathed a long sigh of relief, he knew very well in his heart that if the old man continued to press, he would definitely not be able to bear it.

This time, Ye Qing was even more curious about this old man. He looked at the old man, was slightly silent, and finally couldn't help but say, "Do you know Third Master Li?"

The old man smiled lightly, looked Ye Qing up and down, and said, "You built this tomb?"

"It was built by the villagers. Ye Qing said.

The old man: "You are the one who wears filial piety for him?"

Ye Qing nodded, and his heart was even more strange, not knowing what this old man wanted to say.

"No wonder!" the old man smiled lightly, turned his head to look at the tomb, and said, "After so many years, I thought you really let go. Unexpectedly, in the end, I still kept a hand. It's good that someone can inherit what you left behind!"

After the old man finished speaking, he took out something wrapped in rags from his body and handed it to Ye Qing.

Ye Qing didn't answer: "What is this?"

"This is something I kept for him for 20 years, but I didn't expect that in the end, I didn't give it back to him. The old man looked at Ye Qing and said, "Instead, it was returned to his heir." ”

Ye Qing was slightly stunned and said, "What heir?"

"Hehe......" The old man smiled lightly, did not answer, and only stuffed the thing into Ye Qing's hand.

Ye Qing touched the thing, and it seemed to be a book.

The old man walked to the grave and sat down, and said softly: "Twenty years of responsibility has finally been let go." I finally have an explanation for you. ”

Ye Qing was confused, this old man was very strange in his handling and speaking, which made him ambiguous. What heirs, what responsibilities, what is he talking about?

"This son, can you please help me?" At this time, the girl next to her suddenly spoke.

Ye Qing turned his head to look at the girl, who was also looking at him. It's just that the girl's eyes don't have any sparkle, and they look a little weird.

The girl's face is very beautiful, and her beautiful face is still a little invaded by wind and frost. The eyelashes are very long, the two sword eyebrows are slightly heroic, and there is no makeup, but they are already beautiful.

Ye Qing walked over and reached out to help the girl up. Didn't ask why, because both of them were so weird.

"Thank you. The girl stood firm, a little sorry, and said, "I'm sorry, my eyes are not good, I can't see things, I'm sorry for you!"

Ye Qing was stunned, how could she say that this girl's eyes looked strange, it turned out that she was blind?

Looking at the girl's appearance, Ye Qing couldn't help but feel a little regretful. Such a girl with tricks, but she can't see this colorful world.

The girl chuckled, "Actually, there's nothing wrong with being blind. Although you can't see this colorful world, you can hear it more clearly, and you can fantasize about the beauty of this world without worrying about seeing ugliness. If God gives you something, it will take away something from you. In the same way, if Heaven takes one thing from you, it will definitely give you something back!"

Ye Qing was surprised, not only because the girl guessed what he was thinking, but also because she was surprised by the girl's open-mindedness. To be honest, how many people can be as optimistic as this girl?

"Grandpa, it's time for us to go. The girl said softly.

The old man walked over from the grave, didn't look at Ye Qing, and directly helped the girl to leave.

After walking more than ten meters, the old man suddenly turned his head and said, "Remember, his name is Li Changqing!"

Ye Qing knew that the old man was talking about Lao Litou. It turns out that Lao Li Tou has a name, and his name is Li Changqing!

The girl followed the old man down the mountain, and after a long time, she said softly: "Grandpa, where did Li Sanye choose?"

"The Land of the Crouching Tiger!" said the old man.

The girl nodded slightly and said, "I touched his bones, he is the life of the coiling dragon." ”

No wonder Li Laosan is willing to choose such a successor. The old man smiled lightly and said, "The coiled dragon and the crouching tiger, together are the life of the dragon and the tiger." It seems that he wants this young man to achieve what he has never done!"

"One life, two fortunes, three feng shui, life is determined by heaven, feng shui is determined by man, these two are fixed. However, this luck is closely related to people, and it is the key to success or failure in the end. The girl said: "It's hard to say what the future is!"

Ye Qing didn't know that these two people were still talking about him, and his heart was also full of surprise. However, he is not a talkative person and will not break the casserole to ask the end. So, in the end, he stayed at the grave,
