I don't know how long it took, Li Gan woke up. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

The eye catches the damp ceiling and the energy-saving lamps without lampshades. The lamp is painted with cinnabar ink with incomprehensible charms. The red runes that seemed to be living creatures spread from the lamp tube to the ceiling, forming a circular rune array. Around the perimeter of the rune array, more than a dozen yellow paper talismans hung up, the upper part of each yellow paper talisman was passed through a five-baht coin full of green rust with a red rope, and the lower part was hung with copper bells. Li Qian stared at the copper bell on it and didn't move for a long time. Suddenly, the yellow talisman that was illuminated by the weakened sunlight on the right side rose without wind, but the bell did not ring.

Li Qian turned his gaze to the window that shone in the daylight, and saw that the window frame was also covered with inky red yellow paper symbols. The spell pen on the rune paper walks the dragon, with the momentum of deterring all evil. But the window is closed, and the green trees outside the window have not wavered, so where does this wind come from? There is no air conditioning in the room, but there is a kind of pure and cool lingering in the blood, like floating on a stream flowing in the forest, the body is comfortable, and the soul is also peaceful.

Li Qian only felt weak muscles, but his consciousness was clear. He confidently sat up from the bed, thinking that he would be able to go down for a lap, but the next moment his body arched in pain, and his right hand involuntarily covered his left rib. Then he noticed that his arms, chest, and abdomen were covered in the bruises, as if he had been beaten by a group of men.

"Are you awake?"

Attracted by the sound, he looked towards the door and saw a man in sunglasses standing there with a basin of water and a towel.

"Uncle Xiong?" Li Qian looked at Xiong Jing in home clothes and walked in. "...... am I?"

"At the house of the elder brother. You had a high fever of 39 degrees, were in a coma for two days, and the fever only subsided today. Xiong Jing put the basin on the ground, took a towel and soaked it in the basin, wrung out some and handed it to Li Gan, "Wipe it, your body is sticky." ”

"Oh." Taking the wet towel that Uncle Xiong gave him, Li Qian wiped his neck and arms, "What about my second uncle?" ”

"Out of the house." Xiong Jing said.

"Where's it in the store?" Li Qian asked casually.

"No, I said I had something to do." Xiong Jing replied.

"Gone to a distant land? How long will it take to come back? Li Gan wiped his chest with a towel.

"I don't know, it might take a few days."

"Oh."

Li Qian vaguely felt that the second uncle's trip this time should be related to the matter between himself and Bai Tuan, and there was also a way to find a way for Uncle Xiong to continue his life.

"By the way, Uncle Xiong, what about Bai Tuan?" Li Gan looked behind Xiong Jing and didn't see the ghost who liked to clingy people.

"Outside with Blackboy." Xiong Jing said.

"Outside?" Hearing him say that, Li Gan hurriedly looked out the window.

"It's not the outside, I'm talking about the living room." Uncle Xiong said with a smile.

"Oh!" Li Gan hurriedly got off the bed, because the movement was too urgent, and the wounds on his body hurt together, but Li Gan couldn't help but make no sound.

"Slow down." Seeing this, Xiong Jing stretched out his hand to help, but he waved his hand to stop him.

"It's okay, I can do it myself."

Not even wearing slippers, Li Qian walked barefoot to the door.

"How can you eat a watermelon and not even vomit the seeds?"

As soon as he walked to the door, he heard the black boy talking, and Li Qian stopped.

In the living room there was a low table with a large plate of sliced watermelons. There are two plastic benches next to the low table, one black and one white, and two ghosts, sitting on the bench like children, eating watermelon. Green melon peels are piled up in the east and west, and black melon seeds are also scattered everywhere on the ground.

"Because the food that my husband gave me before was seedless." The white dough ate two patches of red on the cheeks.

"That's the piece he dug out the middle of the watermelon for you to eat, okay." Heizai said while eating, and Leng Buzheng looked up and saw Li Gan leaning against the door, "Oh? Big slut, are you awake? If you don't hurry up and eat the melon, if you don't eat it, it will be gone. ”

There was an X-size plaster on the black boy's head, and his face was full of melon pulps and melon seeds, which made Li Qian want to laugh.

"Big brother, don't believe Xiao Hei's words, he has already left the watermelon for you." Bai Tuan complained, "Just now I accidentally took a piece, he hit me in the paw and didn't tell me to take it, and said that it was left for you." ”

"I'm not going to leave it to that slut." The black boy has a strong mouth.

"What's the deal with the plaster on your head?" Li Qian asked playfully.

"The little black brain has a hole in it, and he will be angry, so my husband cut two pieces of plasticine and pasted them on him." White Regiment Report.

"Why are you going to tell me everything?!"

The black boy lifted his paws, Bai Tuan was stunned for a moment, and then two teardrops began to roll in his eyes.

"Sir~!" Bai Tuan put down the half-eaten melon and cried loudly with a grin, "Sir~!! ”

"What's the matter, Xiaobai?!" Xiong Jing heard the sound and ran out.

"Little Black, it bullied me~!" Bai Tuan pointed at the black boy and cried.

"It wasn't okay just now, but the fight started after a while." Xiong mirrored his grandfather and hugged Bai Tuan and coaxed, "Xiaobai doesn't cry, Xiaobai doesn't cry, Xiaohei is a bad guy, we are good boys, see Uncle is angry for you." ”

Xiong Jing raised his hand and hit the black boy on the head, but as soon as he reached the door of the black boy's head, he turned his palm into two fingers and flicked it in the brain.

"Mr. is amazing~" Bai Tuan immediately laughed happily.

That's how the hole in the brain came from...... Li Qian couldn't help laughing.

"What are you laughing at, when you see your own ghost being bullied, you don't say help, you know that you let your family step on your head!" Seeing that even Li Qian was laughing at it, the black boy was angry, so he took a few remaining melons on the plate to vent his anger. "Hmph, I won't keep the watermelon for you, I'll eat it myself, I don't have your share!"

"You can eat as much as you want, and I didn't stop you." Li Qian said with a smile.

"Hmph, sure enough, good people don't have good rewards...... "Black Boy stuffed his mouth angrily. …… Good people are not rewarded! ”

Li Gan turned his eyes and saw a photo frame on the bookshelf in the living room.

The reason why I noticed that picture frame was because other places were neglected to clean it, and only this one was spotless.

Li Gan went over and picked up the photo frame and saw that it was a color photo of an old age. The photo shows a young woman in a blue dress and a wide-brimmed straw hat. The woman has beautiful facial features and a slender figure, and her black straight hair hangs down on her shoulders without any perm, without the flashy style and fat powder of modern girls, giving people a sense of beauty that does not eat the fireworks of the world.

Who is this person? Li Qian thought to himself. Could it be that the second uncle used to like someone?

The woman in the photo is standing in front of the leafy summer tree and smiling, which makes Li Qian feel extremely cordial.

Why does it feel so familiar? Have I seen her before?

"Do you know who this person is? Uncle Bear? Li Gan picked up the photo and showed it to Xiong Jing.

"Oh, this person is my brother's former girlfriend." Xiong Jing said, "It seems to be called Huo or something, I can't remember the name clearly." ”

"Girlfriend?" Li Qian put the photo back on the bookshelf.

"Huh? Haven't you heard from my brother? Xiong Jing asked.

"No, he told me very little about the past, and I knew that he was kicked out of the Taoist temple by his master, and he wandered the world for a while, and then settled down here and opened a mobile phone store." Li Gan said, "No one knows the story of the wandering world, even my father is his own brother, and I don't know where he went in those years." ”

"That's what he told you......" Xiong Jing thought thoughtfully.

"What's wrong? Uncle Bear? Li Qian was puzzled by his reaction.

"In fact, Senior Brother, he was not kicked out by our master." Xiong Jing said.

"...... that?"

"He ran out on his own."

"What?!" Hearing the fact that it was diametrically opposite to what he knew, Li Gan wanted to understand it even more. "Uncle Xiong, tell me what's going on!"

Xiong Jing put Bai Tuan on the ground, pulled over a chair next to him and sat down, and Hei Zai and Bai Tuan also sat on the small bench and listened carefully.

"About 20 years ago, when my brother was eighteen and I was sixteen." Xiong Jing said, "At that time, we were all practicing on the Heavenly Master Temple in Qingling Mountain, and we danced with all the Taoist brothers and friends every day, in addition to chanting and meditating, we practiced Taoism, or practiced the swordsmanship taught by the master. Although I am ranked second among Master's disciples, I know that Master values Senior Brother more than I do, and wants to train him to become the next generation of Masters. The status of the contemplator is almost something that all the disciples covet, because at that time, the celestial master was extremely prosperous in the incense, and a large number of pilgrims donated money to worship every year, so the disciples felt that as long as they could become the contemplator, they could sit on the wealth donated by the pilgrims, so they had to approach the master every day every opportunity, wanting to add points to the possibility that they could become the contemplator in the future. ”

But the senior brother didn't think so, he was more yearning for the life under the mountain than taking over the master's mantle and becoming the master. Because he has a smart mind, he is idle every day, and he doesn't work as hard as other Dao brothers. But when asked about the problems of the cultivation path, the senior brother is better at speaking than anyone else, and his ability is also above everyone else. This made many Daoist brothers quite complaining, and released a lot of bad rumors about him behind his back, saying that he was opened by the master every night to teach the advanced Dao method alone. Of course, only I know that this is not true. The two of us lived in the same room, and every night I was desperately reciting books, but my brother was sleeping next to him, and he basically slept until dawn. ”

"Since I was a child, I have known that my senior brother has ambitions in all directions, and he definitely does not want to be aggrieved in the Taoist temple on the mountain for a lifetime." Xiong Jing said, "It's just that I didn't expect that the reason why he left the Taoist temple was to find someone." ”

"That day, there was a temple fair in the town below the mountain, and Master told us to practice hard and not to think about playing, but Senior Brother still sneaked out while Master was not watching, walked around a lot, and came back when we had had enough. After he came back, he told me that there were acrobats, puppets, and tricks at the temple fair, and most importantly, he met a very cute girl at the temple fair, and made an appointment to meet at the gate of the Niangniang Temple in the town the next day. ”

That night, because the senior brother did not listen to the master's words, he was beaten by the master thirty times. The palms and fingers are full of swollen old red Rinko, but the senior brother doesn't seem to feel pain at all, and he is laughing stupidly when he kneels on the ground, probably thinking of that girl at that time. Xiong Jing said.

"Although the master repeatedly warned him not to go out of the door of the Taoist temple, otherwise he would not recognize him as an apprentice for the rest of his life, but the senior brother still went according to the agreement."

"And then?" Li Gan asked, "Did he elope with that girl?" ”

"No, the senior brother waited for a day and a night, and the girl didn't come to him." Xiong Jing replied, "He knew that Master would not spare him, so he only dared to sneak back to tell me about it." I asked him, that girl broke the appointment, and she is not an honest person, senior brother, you still broke this heart. As a result, the senior brother said, no, if she doesn't come, there must be something delayed, so she packed her bags after speaking. ”

"I asked him what he was doing. He said he was going to find the girl. I asked him again, what about Master? He's counting on you to take his place. Senior brother smiled and patted me on the shoulder and said, the matter of succession will be handed over to you, junior brother, I am going to find my true love, and the next day Senior brother will go down the mountain. ”

"Master knew that the senior brother was half angry after coming down the mountain for a girl, and put all the responsibility on me, the second senior brother who couldn't stop him, and beat me out of the mountain gate." Uncle Xiong looked back and said, "Now that I think about it, I just wiped my brother's ass." ”

Li Qian held back and didn't laugh.

"Since then, the Heavenly Master Concept has begun to decline. Because the master insisted on not preaching the position of the master, the Taoist brothers who could not get the Taoist temple left the Heavenly Master Temple and went down the mountain one after another, and even said a lot of bad things that were not conducive to the Heavenly Master Temple, and gradually the pilgrims went less. ”

"Did he find the girl?" Li Qian asked.

"Nope." Xiong Jing said, "When I met him again, I saw this Miss Huo standing next to him. At that time, I also asked him, senior brother, is this the girl you chased when you went out of the mountain? The senior brother replied no, the girl back then had long been missing, this was new, and he was sure that this Miss Huo was the true love of his life. ”

"Oh, I thought this woman surnamed Huo was his first love, I guessed the beginning but didn't guess the end." Li Gan had a feeling of being shaken, "Then where is this Miss Huo now?" ”

"She's dead." Uncle Xiong said.

"Dead?"

Before he finished speaking, he heard the sound of a key at the door. Soon the door was opened, and Li Gan saw that it was the protagonist of the story, Li Kui, who came into the door.
