"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect that this little bastard was really good!" Looking at the back of Lin Bai and his party gradually moving away, the old king looked down at the cigarette in his hand, and couldn't help but sigh softly.

"The grandson of the old chief, it's definitely not bad, we people used to look away." Lao Li Tou smiled, mysteriously leaned into Lao Li's ear, and said in a low voice: "I see that this kid still has thoughts about Yan Nier, if you want me to say that you might as well fulfill the two of them, so that he can tell the old chief about it, and get your grandson a half-official position, the scenery is beautiful." ”

"Let your mother's stinky fart, Lao Tzu won't do this kind of thing." Hearing this, the old king's color changed, and he spat on the ground, and said angrily: "Why don't you introduce your granddaughter to that kid and let you be beautiful?!" ”

"Look at your little talent, I'll just make a joke, do you really think people can look down on those girls in our village now?" Lao Li Tou shook his head with a wry smile, took a puff of his cigarette, and said slowly: "Look at the girls around him, like fairy daughters, this person who is used to eating white rice and fine noodles, can he still turn around and take the bran and gnaw on it?" ”

"Who can say for sure, what if that kid likes to nibble on chaff?" The old king muttered, glanced at Lin Bai's back, patted his thigh and said, "Why do you say we are so stupid, and we actually forgot to tell him that the Taoist temple on the mountain is going to be demolished?" ”

"What's the panic, since this kid is back, I still don't believe that those people can demolish the Taoist temple on the mountain!" Lao Li smiled, pointed to Lin Bai's car and said slowly.

"Wait for the opportunity to let that kid from your family talk to him about the Taoist temple, and remember to block my mouth for that other thing, and the words will be rotten in the stomach, don't show half a word!" The old Wang Tou was stunned when he heard this, and after shaking his head with a wry smile, he glanced at the old Li Tou meaningfully, and said slowly: "I'm going back, I have to quickly pull a power grid on the wall!" ”

Lao Li Tou was silent, but for some reason, the fingers holding the cigarette were trembling, and even the cigarette butt burned to the cigarette butt and burned to the fingers, and he didn't know what he was thinking. After being silent for a long time, he smiled, put his hands behind his back, and slowly walked towards the village, muttering: "If it is rotten in the stomach, it will be rotten in the stomach, but I also have to pull the power grid." ”

The cool breeze blows through the big locust tree, and the branches covered with winter snow rattle in the wind, like the secret of dust in the ground.

"The customs here are simple enough, I haven't seen them for so many years, and they are still so affectionate, which is really rare in the city." After talking with those simple mountain people, Xia Xiaoqing was also quite touched, and then glanced at Lin Bai, and said angrily: "Lin Bai, how many immoral things have you done here before, I think those old people are guarding against you like thieves?" ”

"Even so, I just heard the old man say that he wants to pull up the power grid at home. How precautionary do you have to be to do this kind of thing! He Jiaer nodded approvingly and said.

"A few brothers and sisters, you have to watch Lin Bai more closely today, don't let him slip down the mountain carelessly, it's not a day or two for these big girls and little daughters-in-law to look forward to him coming back!" Zhang San smiled madly, and he was also fanning the flames on the side.

"If he dares to go down the mountain, I'll break both of his legs." Ning Huanyan has always been strong, and he didn't care whether Old Man Liu was next to him or not, after reaching out to Lin Bai and comparing the shape of scissors, he said: "Sister Xiaoqing, Sister Jiaer, if you have nothing to do in the past few days, you can accompany me around the village, and you have to see if there are any children who look like Lin Bai." He patted his ass and left, we can't be as conscienceless as him, we have to take good care of them. ”

Lin Bai smiled bitterly when he heard this, but just lowered his head and hurried along the mountain road. The farther he went into the mountains, the more solemn his expression became.

The scenery in the mountains is still the same, the ancient trees are still towering, and when you go halfway up the mountain, you can see that there is a dilapidated small Taoist temple at the top of the mountain. The mottled white walls, the pitch-black tiled roof, and the roof are in disrepair for a long time, and they are overgrown with lush weeds.

No one expected that Lin Bai would carry the key to this dilapidated Taoist temple with him. When the group walked into the Taoist temple, which was almost completely deserted, looking at everything around them, everyone was silent, and all kinds of feelings came to their hearts.

What this old Taoist temple meant to Lin Bai could be seen from the key he carried with him! In this half-deserted Taoist temple, Lin Bai's childhood and her youth are recorded, and it is also the longest time in his life to accompany a person.

In those days, although from the simple arrangement of this Taoist temple alone, you can know how bitter it was; But from the fluctuation of Lin Bai's eyes, he could also see how warm it should be, but in those days, there was no way to come back......

"Lin Bai spent most of his time in the mountains when he was a child, and Master Tian Yuan was not so much his master as his father and mother. If he hadn't taken care of him in those years, I'm afraid there would be no current Lin Bai. Looking at everything in the Taoist temple, Liu Huiyun sighed.

"In this way, our Liu family owes that master." Old Man Liu nodded slowly, glanced at Lin Bai's back, and said slowly: "Wait for an opportunity to repair this Taoist temple, which can be regarded as comforting his spirit in the sky." ”

Liu Huiyun nodded slowly, in fact, this was also her first time coming to this Taoist temple. In the early years, when Lin Bai was studying art in the mountains, in order to prevent Lin Bai from being unbearable to practice physiognomy, and to prevent Liu Huiyun from being contaminated with cause and effect, Li Tianyuan gave her a grounding order. Only during the New Year's holidays did Lin Bai go home to visit her.

Now looking at the grass and trees in this old Taoist temple, she seems to see the picture of a kind old Taoist holding a small doll carved in pink and jade more than 20 years ago, teaching him to read and learn calligraphy, and teaching him to behave in a way.

Under this unnamed mood, the group was silent, wandering aimlessly around the old Taoist temple, wanting to find out the traces of Lin Bai's past life from here, and to find the childhood and youth they missed in Lin Bai.

But at this moment, there was a low sobbing sound suddenly from inside the Taoist temple. The voice was mixed with the whistling mountain wind, like the low whimper of a wild beast, with an indescribable sense of desolation and desolation, which made people feel sad when they heard it. What kind of sad parting pain is it that makes this young man who doesn't change his complexion even if Tianwei is in front of him become like this?!

This is Lin Bai's cry, his hand is on the mottled bluestone ground in front of the Taoist temple, two lines of clear tears are dripping down his cheeks, the expression on his face is extremely hideous, his eyes are even densely covered with bloodshots, and the corners of his mouth are even bitten so that blood overflows.

This cry attracted everyone's attention, and everyone slowly walked towards Lin Bai. But only Zhang Sanmad's eyes were full of tears, and he didn't move a bit, because he knew why Lin Bai was crying, because Li Tianyuan told him about the past.

It was when Lin Bai was fourteen years old, a fourteen-year-old boy, and it was the most rebellious time in his life, even Lin Bai was no exception. Although he still respects Li Tianyuan in his heart, for some reason, he always has so much resistance in his heart. And at that time, Lin Bai was very fond of provoking right and wrong, and even sneaked down the mountain with Li Tianyuan on his back and went to wander in Qimen.

Although Li Tianyuan was trained very well, Lin Bai at that time was still young after all, and his foundation was not stable. Walking too much at night, there is always a time when you miss. That time, Lin Bai provoked the Gu Miao of Western Yunnan, and was put on an evil Gu by the other party, eating away at the essence of flesh and blood.

And the fault is not in Gu Miao, but in Lin Bai. After the group of Gu seedlings captured Lin Bai and tortured him with evil Gu for seven days, they carried him up the mountain and threw him in front of the mountain gate. At that time, Lin Bai's situation was unprecedentedly bad, his body qi and blood were almost devoured, in order to make up for Lin Bai's vitality, Li Tianyuan begged the 'gods' to worship the 'Buddha' everywhere, and finally got the medicine to treat the injuries.

After the Gu poison was removed, this big ups and downs finally made Lin Bai's heart settle down. After recovering, he found Li Tianyuan and wanted Li Tianyuan to punish him, but Li Tianyuan didn't do anything, and only punished Lin Bai for kneeling on the bluestone floor in front of the door of the wing room all night.

You must know that at that time, in order to treat Lin Bai's illness, Li Tianyuan can be said to have exhausted all the face he could use, and even pulled down his face and pretended to be a grandson everywhere, which can be said to be extremely torture for him who is arrogant. This kind of punishment is really a bit light. After hearing about this incident at that time, Zhang Sanmad was also quite puzzled to inquire about the reason.

But Li Tianyuan just said with a smile: If a child makes a mistake, the three Qing Dao ancestors will forgive! Not to mention, Lin Bai is his disciple, as long as he can save the life of his disciple, let alone shameless, even if he doesn't want to die, what is it?!

Thinking of this section, Zhang Sanmad's eyes were also slightly hot, and old tears involuntarily rolled down his cheeks full of ravines.

When he shed tears, Chen Bai'an and Lu Yanzhao also remembered the past events, and the tears kept falling. Carried by this emotion, the venue was completely enveloped in low sobs for a while.

"Dad, why are you crying, is it Xiao Jingxing who upset you?" Xiao Jingxing and Xiao Lizhen, who were held by several girls, saw this scene, and they didn't understand why their father was crying so sadly, blinking his eyes wide, and asking with a milky voice.

"Dad misses his master." Lin Bai stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyes, he didn't want this trip to become so sad at the beginning, after swallowing his tears back into his stomach, he looked at Zhang San with a smile and said, "Senior brother, don't you cry, aren't we coming back?" ”

Although the tears have not fallen, Lin Bai's heart is sadder than anyone else! He has lived all these years, and he has done a lot of happy and regretful things. But what I think is the happiest is the few years I spent on the mountain with Li Tianyuan; And what I regret the most is that I shouldn't have traveled down the mountain in the first place, and I didn't accompany Li Tianyuan for a long time, and accompanied him to the last part of his life......

But life is like this, the way of heaven is impermanent, no one knows what will happen in the next second, people can only live in the moment! Therefore, you can only cherish what you have now, because what you have now is likely to be missed for the rest of your life!
