Following.

The sun is rising, and purple air is coming from the east.

Lu Wu followed Liu Shu to finish his work in the garden at night, and after breakfast, he went out.

In the streets and alleys, all kinds of pedestrians have stepped out of the door one after another to start the busy day.

The children also got dressed and ate breakfast amid the shouts of the adults, still drowsy.

In the early morning of spring, there are already swallows returning from the mud under the eaves, and the grass grows and the warbler flies, which is full of vitality.

Lu Wu walked slowly down the street, greeting the same neighbors with kindness.

There were constantly people passing by Lu Wu, smiling and nodding to each other from time to time.

Lu Wu grew up in this small town since he was a child, and everyone in the neighborhood recognized him.

For example, the fruit vendor at the door, in spring, summer, autumn and winter, whether it is in the cold winter or the hot season, always carries a hat and a long burden, and walks through the streets and alleys.

The fruits he sells are very popular with his neighbors, and the fruits are seasonal and fresh.

His real name is Li Baoku, which seems very cheesy, and everyone is not happy to call him, they all call him Guozi Li, and over time, everyone even forgot his real name.

The children in the town also called him Guozi Li, and they followed him to make up songs, and ran through the town.

The peddler was not stingy either, and sometimes smiled and handed out fruit to the children, and continued to walk through the streets to the cheers of their cheers.

Guo Zi Li also looks like a civet cat, with a dark face, a thin man, and hides his face under the hat that does not match his body shape all the year round, but his eyes are surprisingly bright.

He is the Bai Xiaotong in this town, walking all over the streets and alleys, and every day he can bring the gossip between the women in those alleys out of the deep alleys and spread to the whole town, adding oil and vinegar, just like a ghost story.

Lu Wu didn't take a few steps before he saw the figure of Guozi Li, who was arguing violently with people about something.

"I'm serious, it's a fairy ......" came the voice of Guo Zi Li faintly, and he blushed and shouted with a thick neck.

The people around laughed, they were all used to it.

This guy is always so chattering and likes to make up weird stories.

Guozi Li's face was flushed, and he straightened his neck: "The little daughter-in-law of the Tong family on South Street has seen it, it's not fake!"

With a playful expression on everyone's faces, they nodded in response: "I know, I know, there are immortals, there are immortals." ”

Then there was laughter.

Guozi Li put aside the flat burden on his shoulder, stomped his feet, and continued to emphasize: "And the boy from the Wu family in the alley in the north has also seen it, if you don't believe it, you can ask him." ”

Someone ridiculed: "That kid from the Wu family is only six or seven years old, and you also believe that kid's nonsense?"

Guo Zili seemed more and more eager, and jumped up on the spot, trying to prove that what he said was true, but no one believed it.

Looking at his funny appearance, everyone on the side laughed even more.

"Guo Zi Li, what are you doing?" Lu Wu approached, smiling, looking at Guo Zi Li.

Guozi Li heard someone greet him, and slowly turned his head, his eyes full of confusion.

When he saw that it was Lu Wu, he hurriedly laughed: "Yo, isn't this Lu Wu? I haven't seen you for a long time, what have you been busy with lately?"

As he spoke, he bent down and took out a large orange from the basket and handed it over.

Lu Wu and this fruit Li are old acquaintances, but you are not polite, take the orange, peel off the skin, tear off a petal and put it in the mouth, a sweet and sour taste from the tip of the tongue to the entire mouth.

"Well, the oranges are good, I'll send some to the house, and I'll buy some for the greedy Miss Yunli. Lu Wu nodded and praised it.

Guozi Li Xi smiled, the redness and resentment on his face faded, patted Lu Wu's shoulder, and praised: "It's still Lu Wu's brothers who are righteous, not like these bastards." ”

As he spoke, he glanced blankly at the people around him.

Lu Wu smiled and said suspiciously: "I just heard what immortals and not immortals you are discussing, let's hear about it?"

Hearing this, a hint of pride flashed in the civet's eyes, and he snorted: "Look, there are always people who want to listen to me." ”

A woman next to her said, "Come on, Brother Lu Wu just wants to have fun." ”

There was another burst of laughter.

Guozi Li glared at the woman fiercely, then turned his head with a gentle look and said to Lu Wu, "Brother Lu Wu, do you remember the spring rain a few days ago?"

Lu Wu nodded, how could he forget that he wrote the first stroke in that spring rain.

And the dragon body that he practiced hard was also on that night, and he inexplicably opened up the three Yin Sutras, and his progress was so fast, it was really unforgettable.

Guozi Li glanced at Lu Wu mysteriously, looked around, and said in a low voice: "There was lightning and thunder that night, and the town has not had such a loud thunder for many years. It is reported that someone saw a person in the thunder light. ”

Lu Wu's eyes widened in surprise and looked at Guozi Li in a daze.

When the civet saw Lu Wu's eyes, the smug look on his face was even worse: "I didn't lie to you, there really is someone." The daughter-in-law of the Tong family on the south street, as well as the Wu family boy in the alley in the north, yes, and the little guy of the Zhang family next door to the Wu family, many people have seen it. There was a tall figure in that thunder, and it was said that the thunder and lightning flew out of his cuffs!"

Lu Wu didn't make a sound, and listened silently.

Guozi Li swallowed his saliva, and then said: "Don't you know, I heard that person has wings on his back! Otherwise, how could he fly to the sky? And that person has a hideous face, it is said that he is an immortal who has been degraded to the earth, and he has come to the world to cross the catastrophe, and many people have seen that the fairy with a green face and fangs, rising and falling in the sea of thunder and lightning, seems to be suffering from the punishment from the Heavenly Palace!"

The more he spoke, the more realistic it became, and his eyebrows fluttered, as if he had witnessed this miracle with his own eyes.

"Some people also say that the fairy seems to be carrying a huge mountain, and there is a dense jungle on the mountain, from which comes the roar of many fierce beasts, as well as the wailing of powerful ghosts, which is quite terrifying!" Speaking of this, Guo Zili stared at everyone with wide eyes, his pupils dilated, and a dense color of fear flowed from his eyes.

Everyone was silent, and everyone swallowed, as if they were frightened by the description of this fruit plum.

"Heh, hehe. A vendor who was also buying vegetables next to him laughed dryly, "Guozi Li, I didn't say it, if you go to the restaurant to tell stories and ghost stories, you will definitely be able to do it!"

As soon as these words came out, the tension in the air suddenly warmed up a little, and several people slowly breathed a sigh of relief, pretending to smile easily.

"Guozi Li, this story is good. ”

"Whose mother-in-law did you say it?"

"Hahaha, Guozi Li, you will be called Fairy Li in the future. ”

Everyone laughed at Guo Zi Li, but Guo Zi Li didn't pay attention, a pair of small eyes glowing under the hat, and he fixed on Lu Wu's expression.

Lu Wu listened very seriously, but he also felt ridiculous in his heart.

In such a remote town, there will be no living people coming in for decades, where are the gods and ghosts, even if there are really any, what are you doing in this realm?

But he vaguely felt that something was wrong, although Guo Zili likes to gossip on weekdays, he is not such a person who does not know the importance and casually rambles.

It's just that this matter is too absurd.

Lu Wu shook his head and patted Guozi Li's shoulder: "You better talk slowly, remember to send some oranges when you go back." ”

With that, turn around and leave.

Guozi Li wept and lowered his head.

There was a burst of laughter around them, and everyone patted Guozi Li on the shoulder and scattered.

Guo Zili picked up the flat burden on the ground again, and walked through the streets and alleys to sell, frowning slightly, could it really be that he was wrong? But many people said that they had seen it.

He shook his head, full of confusion.

Then, a loud voice overpowered the hustle and bustle around him:

"Sell fruits, fresh and delicious fruits, don't miss them when you pass by!"

......

Lu Wu walked silently, still thinking about what Li said before.

The so-called gods and ghosts, Lu Wu will not believe it at all.

But according to what Guozi Li said, it should be possible that a figure appeared in the thunder light, after all, this town does not seem to be as simple as it seems on the surface.

"Brother Lu Wu!" a shout came from the side.

Lu Wu came back to his senses from his contemplation and looked at the source of the voice, his face instantly filled with a smile.

It's a Qian woman who sells steamed buns.

The Qian woman was nearly forty years old, and her sideburns were covered with frost.

She is also a miserable woman, who lost her husband unexpectedly in her early years, and with her commendable steamed bun skills, she pulled her son up alone.

Now that kid is as old as Lu Wu, and now the pawnshop in the north of the city is a guy, which can be regarded as a mixed meal.

When Lu Wu saw the woman, a bright smile appeared on his face, and he walked over and beckoned: "Good morning, Aunt Qian." ”

Qian looked at Lu Wu gently, but said with concern: "I heard that not long ago in the restaurant on the corner of the market, you had a conflict with the children of those families and were seriously injured, are you better?"

Lu Wu moved his body and nodded: "Thank you Aunt Qian for your concern, I have almost recovered." ”

The worry on Qian's face faded, and he looked Lu Wu up and down: "Over the years, I have seen you running around this town, and you are running very fast, which is almost as big as your aunt and my shoulders." ”

Lu Wu scratched his head and smiled shyly: "Isn't your Qian Zizhen about the same height as me." ”

Speaking of his son, Qian's face showed a faint sadness: "That little bastard only has a long head and no heart, he is already a person who has to deal with people like a pawnshop guy, or he is still smooth and smooth all day long, if only there was the stability of Brother Lu Wu's half." ”

As she spoke, she looked around, leaned slightly, and said in a low voice: "I heard that three of the Fan disciples are folded in your hands, but Brother Lu Wu is powerful." ”

As he spoke, he gave a thumbs up.

Lu Wu was stunned and couldn't answer.

Qian smiled: "You can be regarded as doing good things for us poor people, then the children of the Fan family often rely on the family to be overbearing, which is disgusting, but your hand of killing chickens and monkeys has made those gentlemen restrain a lot." ”

Speaking of this, Qian sighed and looked at Lu Wu worriedly: "But Brother Lu Wu will have to be more vigilant in the future." ”

Lu Wu shook his head: "I didn't think about it so much, but I just saw them bullying Miss Yunli, so I stepped forward." ”

When Qian heard this, he praised it: "Heroes save beauty, Brother Lu Wu is really chivalrous." ”

As he spoke, he secretly glanced at Lu Wu: "I heard that Miss Liu has a good impression of you, I'm afraid you're going to fly up the branches now!"

Lu Wu's face suddenly turned red, and he felt his tongue knotted: "Auntie, don't make fun of me, that Miss Yunli is a fairy daughter in the sky, and I'm just a scholar." ”

Qian looked at Lu Wu with a smile and touched his head: "People have to be ambitious, look at your aunt, haven't you lived alone for so many years, Qian Zizhen's bastard boy hasn't been pulled up by me." ”

Lu Wu pouted: "That's different." ”

Qian looked at Lu Wu's appearance, and only said in his heart that the young man's heart was not yet mature, so he stopped teasing Lu Wu, took out two hot buns from the steamer, wrapped them in paper, and handed them to Lu Wu.

"Come, Brother Lu Wu, take these two buns, and your aunt picked your favorite carrot stuffing for you. ”

Seeing the easy-going face of the woman, Lu Wu was stunned and shook his head: "Auntie, I can't ask for this, how can I take what you take and sell? ”

Qian Shi suddenly feigned anger, looked at Lu Wu, and his thin willow eyebrows wrinkled slightly: "What are you talking about? You can just take what your aunt gave you, and what kind of money will you give!"

Lu Wu intended to shirk it, but the Qian family never wanted Lu Wu to be polite, just to be an aunt's heart for his sons and nephews.

Lu Wu's face was bitter, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

Seeing Lu Wu's appearance, Qian said angrily: "It's all Mr. Ye Zhiqiu's bastard, who taught you all to be elm heads! In this case, here is a bag of food, you can help me give it to my uncompetitive bastard, this kid hasn't been home for a few days, and I don't know if the food is good or not." ”

As she spoke, a deep sadness suddenly appeared on the woman's face.

Seeing this, Lu Wu hurriedly comforted: "I know that guy Qian Zizhen best, he won't be poor for anything, auntie, don't worry, I'll send it, and by the way, I'll help you teach that kid a good lesson!"

When the woman heard this, the sadness on her face dissipated slightly, and she forced a smile and thanked her.

Lu Wu took the buns, took the food that Qian had prepared for his son, thanked him, and turned to leave.

Qian's eyes looked at Lu Wu's back as he left, his expression was full of pity and distress, as if he was feeling emotion for Lu Wu's miserable life experience.

She sighed under her breath.

It's a pity that such a sensible child.

......

The warbler in the town sings and dances, the grass grows and the warbler flies, which is spring.

Eating the bun in his hand, Lu Wu also felt inexplicable warmth in his heart.

It seems that the temperature came from which two carrot buns.

Full of sweetness.
