"Won't others know?"
"Unless, of course, you say it yourself. ”
"I'm not going to say it, what should I do now?"
"Kneel down and kowtow nine times, even if the apprenticeship is successful. ”
"Understood, the master is above, and the apprentice has kowtowed to you. Saying that, Ma Rucao knelt and kowtowed nine times.
"Well, you're my apprentice now. ”
"Master, what's your name?"
"Remember my title, Master, Poison Killing God Monarch. ”
"Poison Shenjun, master, did you use poison to kill people?"
"No, it's more poisonous than poison. ”
"Then master, come out now!"
"I can't get out. ”
"Why?"
"My body is ruined, and my soul is going to dissipate. ”
"Then master, how do you teach me?"
"I've put all my life's learning on the table, and this space is yours too. ”
"But I won't use it?"
"Look at the book on the table, and you'll be able to use it. ”
"But I don't know the words?"
"Well, how could I be so unlucky? I will help you with the ultimate soul energy when I meet an apprentice like you! Remember that you only need to enter and exit three times, and before you can learn to read. ”
The master understood. ”
"Goodbye, I'm reluctant, apprentice, don't follow in my footsteps. ”
"Boom!" Ma Rucao only felt dizzy, and then he felt connected with this room, and he temporarily named this space the Witch God Space.
Ma Rucao walked to the table and saw a book under the lamp, he actually knew some words, which his mother had taught. The name of the book is five characters, and Ma Rucao only knows two characters, one big character and one Japanese character. When he saw it, he didn't have to open it to look at it, there must be more things he didn't know in it, and he couldn't connect them into sentences, and the meaning couldn't be understood.
Ma Rucao thought of a talented job, and went into the mountains to find his father alone, but he was reckless. Now there is a way to fend off his enemies, so Ma Rucao stayed in the witch god space for a while, feeling hungry, before coming out of it and returning to the village. When they saw him, the villagers asked, "Xiaocao, we are all looking for you, why did you go to the local area alone?"
"I want you to take care of it. ”
"This kid. The villagers knew that his mother must have been sad when she had just died, and they didn't owe him to take care of it, so they went to inform the village chief on their own.
When Ma Guoxing came back from hunting in the mountains, he was called by the village chief, who had already organized people to wait at the entrance of the village. The village chief told him about his daughter-in-law's death, although Ma Guoxing was very sad, but he was not as radical as Ma Rucao. He knew that his daughter-in-law had been in poor health recently, that is, she had not been beaten, and her estimate was enough to choke.
"Then what should you do with your little grass?"
"The village chief is determined, I will make it clear to him when I go back. ”
"Do you have any other requirements for compensatory work?"
"No, you don't have to buy a coffin, just dig a pit and bury it. Ma Haishan's family is not well-off, so he bought a coffin and lost money, estimating that he had to borrow money. ”
Some of the villages are local, and when the children are older, they build houses, all of which are adobe houses, but they have no capital. The expenses are small, and the income is not much, and although there are wild beasts in the mountains that can be sold for money, you can't catch too much in a single hunt. Coupled with the fact that there are many people in the village, there are not many points. Therefore, there is not much money left in every family in their village, and there are no more than a hundred left in a year. Ma Haishan has five children at home, and there is nothing left in the past year, and he really has to borrow money to buy a coffin and lose money. Although the children are often oppressed by the children of Ma Haishan's family, they are all from the same village, and Ma Guoxing does not want Ma Haishan to live too miserably.
"If you don't have a fixed opinion, the coffin is inevitable, this is not only the work of the two of you, this is the work of the whole village, if the reward and punishment are light, we will all start in the future, and hurt the peace and waste the money. ”
"Okay, I'll listen to the village chief. ”
When Ma Guoxing got home, he saw Ma Rucao cooking by himself. He shouted, "Xiaocao, I'm back." ”
"Dad, woo!"
"Alright, don't cry. ”
"You want to avenge your mother!"
"What revenge? Your mother died of illness, what does it have to do with others?"
"It was Ma Haishan who killed him, if you don't take revenge, I will take revenge. ”
"You kid, you don't listen to me?"
"If you don't avenge your mother, I won't listen. ”
"Then wait until you grow up and report it yourself!"
"I can't wait, I'll stab them with a knife in two days. ”
"I can't tell you clearly, and then I will discount your leg when I mention the work of revenge. ”
"If you dare, if you dare to break my leg, I will poison you with drugs. ”
When Ma Guoxing heard this, this kid was on the tip of the horns, so he thought that he had to send him away. So, he said: "I'll send you to the city, your body can't practice boxing, go to the city to learn some words, and then go to become an apprentice!"
As soon as he heard that he was going to learn words, Ma Rucao stopped talking, but this was in line with his idea, and revenge would be avenged after cultivation. Two days later, Ma Guoxing's daughter-in-law was buried, and Ma Rucao cried a lot, but there was no excess. Ma Guoxing's daughter-in-law is called Lu Lianghua, she is a young lady from a large family, and she has learned some from Xiaoqin, chess, calligraphy and painting, otherwise she would not have taught her children to read and write.
Two hundred and seventy-three fortune telling
In the local area where Lu Lianghua was, there was a big flood that year, and the whole family was scattered. After she was washed out by the water, she was exiled to Majiazhuang, and at that time, Lu Lianghua was almost unclothed and starved for five days. Ma Guoxing was a person who met her, so he took her home and took care of her food and housing.
In the end, she became Ma Guoxing's daughter-in-law. After that, she followed Ma Guoxing to work in the field, although she was the eldest lady, but now she is no longer so, and these jobs cannot rely on Ma Guoxing alone. This is dead now, and getting a coffin is not a disadvantage to the name of the eldest lady.
Most of the women from other families also came in this way, and some went to the city to buy it. When encountering the New Year, some of them sell their sons and daughters, and their village is close to the mountains. It's not bad when it comes to a bad year, but you have less income and can't go hungry.
After being buried, Ma Rucao was sent to the city by Ma Guoxing. Their village was still far from the city, but there were horse-drawn carriages passing by and these wagons were coming into their villages to collect mountain goods.
They took such a carriage to the city, and when they reached the outskirts, Ma Rucao saw the walls here. The walls are two people high, and they are all built of large rough stones. There are three big characters written at the gate of the city, and the totem is in the city. Ma Rucao only knew the word totem body, and he guessed that the final word should be the word for the city. When he asked his father, he told him that this was the Totem City.
Ma Rucao was sent to Ma Guoxing's eldest brother's house, and Ma Guoxing and his eldest brother Ma Guojun said:
