Chapter 401: Strange Master

"Master, I'm here to see your old man, and I've brought a few friends with me. Lao Li immediately bowed, and it seemed that it was his master who opened the door.

"Oh, come from afar, please come in, please come in. Lao Li's master ten needles hurriedly opened the door and let everyone in.

Looking at this person, he is also quite enthusiastic, and he is not as eccentric as Lao Li said? Several people couldn't help but wonder a little in their hearts.

The room was small and very simple, with a bed, a table, a bookshelf against the wall full of books, a cabinet in the corner, and nothing else.

Because the door was open, the wind blew in, and the flame on the oil lamp on the table began to sway with the wind, and the room was dark and bright, which made people feel a little uncomfortable.

When everyone entered the room, the door was closed with ten needles, and the room slowly lit up.

"You may be seated. Ten needles greeted everyone very warmly, took out a few bowls from the cabinet, placed them on the table and poured water, and looked like a smile.

Except for Lao Li, the eyes of the others have never left the ten needles, and everyone is staring at this mysterious old man.

Listening to his speech, he was full of energy, his waist was also very straight, his face was ruddy, although he was full of white hair, but there were few wrinkles on his face, and he knew that he was in good health at a glance, and he didn't look like a 110-year-old old man at all.

"It's not yet season this year, why are you here so early?" After sitting down, Ten Needles looked at Lao Li and asked, his eyes blazing.

"I happened to have nothing to do recently, so I came to see your old man's house, and I also brought a few children with me. Lao Li really respected the master very much, and as soon as the ten needles asked, Lao Li immediately stood up and replied respectfully.

"Okay, good, I don't usually have anyone here, it's rare to be so lively all of a sudden, okay. Ten Needles nodded happily at the unfamiliar faces.

"Hello senior, my name is Murong Xiaonuan. Murong Xiaonuan quickly stood up and bowed to the ten needles.

"Murong Xiaonuan, are you the girl of the Murong family?" Ten needles looked at Murong Xiaonuan, nodded and asked.

"Yes. Murong Xiaonuan hurriedly replied.

"Who are you Murong Qingyun?" Ten Needle Jian's own guess was confirmed, and he asked again.

Murong Xiaonuan's face showed a surprised expression: "Back to the old man, that's Taizu." ”

"Oh, time flies really fast, Murong Qingyun and I have known each other since childhood, I didn't expect his great-grandchildren to be so old? He is good now? I haven't seen him for almost thirty years. Ten needles said with a sigh, the Murong Qingyun he was talking about was the former head of the Murong family, Murong Xiaonuan's great-grandfather, and Murong Ze'an's grandfather.

"Taizu died twenty years ago. "For Murong Qingyun, Murong Xiaonuan didn't know much, she died not long after she was born.

"That's a shame, we used to play together a lot when we were younger, and we had a good relationship. Ten Needles said with some sadness.

Murong Xiaonuan didn't expect that the ten needles would have such a relationship with the Murong family, but this made her surprised and a little happy, maybe these ten needles would agree to go out of the mountain in Murong Qingyun's face. It's just that what makes Murong Xiaonuan feel strange is that the ten needles don't seem to be very surprised when they mention the Murong family, as if they are talking about their neighbor's house.

"Who are these two?" After sighing, Ten Needles looked at Hao Shuai and Xiaoyu again and asked.

"Grandpa, my name is Hao Shuai. Hao Shuai quickly stood up and said.

"Hehe, Hao Shuai, it's quite handsome. Ten Needles nodded and said with a smile.

"Hey, hey. Hao Shuai touched the back of his head with some embarrassment, his name often gave him such jokes.

"My name is Xiaoyu. Xiaoyu also stood up.

"The little girl is very lovely, but unfortunately I don't have anything to entertain you here. Ten Needles said with some regret.

"Grandpa, why don't you have a beard?" Xiaoyu looked at the ten needles curiously, no matter where she went, she always had many questions.

"I scraped it off, is there anything wrong?" Ten needles didn't expect Xiaoyu to suddenly ask such a question.

"I heard this Uncle Li say that you have lived to be one hundred and ten years old, is it true?" Xiaoyu simply walked up to the ten needles and stared at his face carefully.

"It's true, I'm just one hundred and ten years old. Ten needles looked at Xiaoyu's two big black eyes staring at herself, and couldn't help but reach out and touch her head.

"Wow, you are so powerful, you can live for so long, have you taken any elixir of immortality?" Xiaoyu always thought that Lao Li was bragging, but now that he saw that ten needles had admitted it himself, he couldn't help but cover his mouth in surprise.

"Hahaha, what is the elixir of immortality, as long as you have a good body, you can live for a long time. "Ten needles were amused by Xiaoyu, this little girl is really cute.

"Then how old are you this year?" After laughing, Ten Needles asked Xiaoyu again.

"Well, guess what?" Xiaoyu shook her head playfully, letting the ten needles guess by herself.

"Give me your hand. Ten needles reached out and pinched Xiaoyu's wrist, and then said, "Nineteen years old." ”

Murong Xiaonuan and Hao Shuai opened their mouths wide all of a sudden, which was also amazing, and Xiaoyu didn't write on his face, which could be guessed.

This is called touching the bones, it is a discipline in ancient medicine, you can know the age of the other party by touching the bones, modern calls this bone age, but in ancient medicine, the medical skills can also know the height and weight of the other party by touching the bones, etc., and the master is a master in this. Lao Li explained in a low voice to the two on the side.

So amazing? Murong Xiaonuan had another expectation for ten needles.

"Hehe, you guessed it wrong, I'm thirty years old. Xiaoyu said triumphantly.

"You little girl is really naughty, thirty years old, if you are thirty years old, I will be three hundred years old. Ten needles knocked on Xiaoyu's head with a smile, and then continued: "You weigh ninety-two pounds and are one meter six or eight tall, right?"

Xiaoyu was uneasy all of a sudden, to say that this height can be visually measured, but this weight can't be seen so accurately just by looking at it.

"What else do you know?" Xiaoyu asked unwillingly.

"I also know that you grew up without parents. Ten needles said again.

"Ahh

"I don't know. Ten Needles grinned and shook his head: "We should know each other, but it seems that we just met." ”

"I didn't expect Master's medical skills to improve again. Lao Li was also full of surprise, and as for Murong Xiaonuan and Hao Shuai, they were completely stunned.

"In fact, there is a breath in people's bodies, and being raised by parents since childhood is not the same as being raised by others, so don't be surprised, I just feel this breath in your body. Ten Needles explained.

Although I don't really understand what this so-called qi is, I still understand the meaning.

"Master, I brought them here today, but I still have one thing I want to ask of you. Seeing that the time was almost up, the ten needles were in the communication center with Xiaoyu and were in a very good situation, so Lao Li wanted to take advantage of this purpose to say the purpose of coming.

Who knew that as soon as he heard this, the face of the ten needles immediately changed, and the water bowl he picked up was also heavily placed on the table, and with a "snap", the frightened Xiaoyu ran back to Hao Shuai's side, not daring to talk to him anymore.

"What's the matter with you, don't you know the rules?" Ten needles looked at Lao Li, and his voice was as cold as ice.

"I... Master, I... Lao Li was speechless.

"Okay, needless to say, you can go, it's getting late, I'm going to rest. Ten needles stretched out their hands towards the door, which meant to send off the guests.

It was only at this time that Murong Xiaonuan realized why Lao Li said that his master had a strange temper, this was just like the weather in June, it changed when he said it, just now he was smiling and looking like a kind old man, but now he immediately turned his face and didn't recognize people, and directly issued an eviction order.

"Master, this matter is up to you. Lao Li hesitated again and again, and finally mustered up the courage to say.

Murong Xiaonuan was also the first time to see Lao Li so jealous of a person. It stands to reason that Lao Li should not have anything to be afraid of when he reaches this age, but there is no way, these ten needles are his master, one day as a teacher and a father for life, not afraid.

"Impossible, don't think about it anymore, I've been collecting mountains for more than 20 years, it's impossible to treat others, I haven't even touched a needle in these years. The ten needles didn't listen to Lao Li say what was going on, so he directly raised his hand and refused.

In addition to being anxious, Murong Xiaonuan also admired this old man, but he didn't expect to be so old, he was still not confused at all, and he directly guessed what Lao Li was going to say.

"But Master... "Lao Li still wants to work harder.

"Shut up, if you talk nonsense, we won't even have to do it. Ten needles didn't wait for Lao Li to finish speaking, raised his hand and slapped the table, and directly said the words to death.

This time, it really scared Lao Li, he closed his mouth tightly and didn't dare to speak anymore, and his eyes were full of helplessness when he looked at Murong Xiaonuan.

"Senior, I have a few words, I don't know if to say it or not?" Lao Li was defeated, Murong Xiaonuan rose to the challenge, she always felt that the strange temper that Lao Li said was that it was more difficult to communicate, but she didn't expect that ten needles were not only difficult to communicate, but also so short-tempered.

Ten needles glanced at Murong Xiaonuan and didn't speak, but he still looked angry.

"As a junior, I shouldn't have said this about you, but if I didn't say it, it would be really uncomfortable to hold it in my heart. Senior, do you think it's appropriate for you to do this?" Murong Xiaonuan first tactfully made a foreshadowing, and then directly poked the words on the ribs of the ten needles.

"What do you mean? It's always up to me to decide whether I'm doing things properly or not, and it's not the turn of anyone else to make irresponsible comments. Ten needles' temper was really violent, and he pushed back with a word.
