16 The Mystery of Origin

Duan Junsheng squinted his eyes with a smile: "I see, no wonder I said oh, no, I mean Du Gongzi, you are dignified, a talent, you can see the ripples of our family, but our ripples are a good blessing." ”

Du Zimo also smiled and hugged his fists: "Mr. Duan is polite, and I also asked Mr. Duan to allow me and Qi Niang to do something, and I will naturally honor you, what do you think?" ”

Duan Junsheng hurriedly waved his hand reservedly: "Hey, Du Gongzi is really polite, we are all a family, and we should get along well." He paused again in the middle of his words, and then said slowly: "I don't have any other requirements for Du Gongzi, you know, I am such a daughter, it is not easy for me to grow up with her since I was a child, both of them have suffered a lot, and it has always been my dream that she can live a good life." It's great that my wish has finally come true."

As he spoke, he looked at Du Zimo's eyes carefully, and said in an aggravated tone: "It's just that Du Gongzi, you also know that I am such a daughter, and I will still rely on her to support me when I am old in the future, but if you take her away, I will be the only one left in Xuncheng, even if I miss my daughter, it is not good to visit her, life is really sad."

Duan Junsheng sighed sadly, and didn't talk about the point for a long time, just kept sighing and sighing, and really looked like he was living an extremely painful life. Wu Xun frowned when he heard this, he really wanted to poke him, judging from Duan Lianyi's performance, I didn't see how good the relationship between the two of you was, this is only second, my daughter was bought into the Qinglou by you when she was ten years old, can this be regarded as your hard work to support her?

Put yourself in your shoes, no matter which woman you put on it, I'm afraid you'll hate your father to death, and even if you don't hate, you must not want to see it again.

Thinking about it like this, I think Duan Lianyi is not bad, at least she often gave money to Duan Junsheng at the beginning, if it weren't for Duan Junsheng's being too uncompetitive, taking her hard-earned money to gamble, and laughing at her for earning a lot of silver as long as she sleeps with someone, but refusing to give him the money to spend, Duan Lianyi is afraid that he will still think about helping Duan Junsheng do some business or something.

Although he is just a martial artist, he can still see people quite accurately, Duan Lianyi is very arrogant, although he is just a girl in a flower building, but her heart has not been corrupted by this drunken place after all. But no matter what, her identity is already an established fact, and she still has such a troublesome father, is what Du Zimo said true or false? If it's fake, it's fine, but it's not good if it gets out, if it's true, it's terrible, not to mention that the Du family will definitely not accept Duan Lianyi's identity, and the most important thing is that Duan Lianyi still has a mystery that has not been solved

"Although Mr. Duan can rest assured, I will definitely take good care of the ripples, and I will also give Mr. Duan a generous dowry to keep Mr. Duan worry-free for the rest of his life." Du Zimo smiled peacefully, his eyes were firm, and people couldn't help but believe his words.

Duan Junsheng immediately laughed so much that the corners of his mouth grinned to the root of his neck: "Hehe, Du Gongzi has a heart, it's just that I'm such a daughter, I still hope to see her often"

Wu Xun was angry, he had never seen such a shameless person, he had said that he would have no worries about food and clothing, he had not done anything and had been able to get such a great favor in vain, he actually dared to be greedy and insufficient, it was really angry that he had nothing to say.

"Don't β€”β€”! too much" Wu Xun's brows furrowed tightly, he took a step forward, and the long sword struck in front of Duan Junsheng in one fell swoop, which frightened Duan Junsheng into retreating again and again, with a panicked expression.

Greedy is insufficient, but his timid nature is undoubtedly exposed, and he is really a person who is easy to look down on.

"Hey, Wu Xun, how can I say that it is also my future Lord Yue, even if there are more conditions, it should be, so that I can show that I attach importance to the ripples, and let the father-in-law feel at ease, I, Du Zimo, will definitely treat the ripples well." Du Zimo raised his hand to stop Wu Xun, and said softly, even calling out a few words to Master Yue.

Seeing his serious appearance, it made Wu Xun even more confused all of a sudden, I don't know which one Du Zimo was playing, did he really like that pretentious little prostitute? Wu Xun's brows were furrowed enough to kill flies.

Seeing Du Zimo speaking for him like this, and he had to go down a step, Duan Junsheng immediately gained a lot of confidence, and he was no longer so afraid of Wu Xun.

He only looked at Du Zimo's side, and he didn't know how to write the word polite, Zhuang Yuanlang called him Lord Yue, and he really dared to respond like this: "It's still reasonable for my prospective son-in-law to say, it was originally true, I am such a daughter, of course I want to leave a way back for myself, so as not to be old and have no one to rely on, I can only live and eat alone, and I don't even have someone to talk to." His expression was sad, and he looked pitiful.

Du Zimo took his words: "I think so too, I don't know if there are any conditions that Lord Yue-in-law hasn't said, just tell the son-in-law, as long as there is a place for the son-in-law to help, the son-in-law will not refuse." ”

"Or my prospective son-in-law speaks nicely, hehe, then I'm not welcome, this matter is actually not difficult, as long as the prospective son-in-law is willing to do it, he will be able to do it." Duan Junsheng snickered, overjoyed: "I'm also old now, I may not be able to do anything in a few years, I still thought that if Ripples could stay in Xuncheng, I would still have a companion and a thought." But son-in-law, you are from the capital, and now you also live in the capital, if my daughter marries you, she will definitely go with you, I was thinking, hehe, in fact, this is also a reluctant invitation" Duan Junsheng said for a long time and still didn't get to the point, Wu Xun is a straightforward person, he can't stand this kind of clever words, and he hides a bunch of twists and turns in his heart, and he can't interrupt him when he hears it several times, and he puts his sword on his neck and forces him to finish his words at one time.

Duan Junsheng finally got to the point: "Hehe, son-in-law, don't you want to take a look, can you bring me to the capital, I can help with some work, and I don't need to give me any silver, I just need to be by Ripples' side, and it will save Ripples from thinking of me in the future and not seeing me, both of them will be by each other's side and have a response, which will also reassure each other, isn't it?" ”

Wu Xun was so angry that he had nothing to say, this dead old man was really not an ordinary shameless, to put it mildly, he didn't look at what kind of goods Duan Lianyi was, a woman who came out of the Qinglou could be accepted by a big family was a question, and he actually thought that he could enter the Du family with Duan Lianyi to enjoy happiness. It's a good thing to say, you can still help the Du family do things, don't need to be paid, but if you really want to let him go, if you don't pay him and let his father-in-law, the champion Lang, do the work for the Du family, I'm afraid he will have to say bad things about the Du family in the capital.

Besides, he was reluctant to let Duan Ripples there, obviously he wanted to rely on Duan Ripples for the rest of his life to be lazy.

Wu Xun couldn't help but sympathize with Duan Ripple, I don't know how that girl has come over for so many years, and it is really difficult for him to have such a wonderful father.

But Du Zimo still smiled and agreed: "It's easy to talk about this matter, naturally I won't let my father-in-law have nowhere to go, and it is impossible for my father-in-law to be a subordinate to our family, so let's do it, I still have two other courtyards in the city, and when the time comes, my father-in-law can choose a pension to live in, which can be regarded as a gift from my son-in-law to my father-in-law." ”

"Haha!" Duan Junsheng smiled from ear to ear: "Son-in-law, you are really too generous, and Ripples will be very happy!" Until now, he has not forgotten to put on a ripple to find confidence for himself, and he is about to use it to suppress Du Zimo.

In the end, Duan Junsheng lost his mind when he saw the money.

Duan Junsheng is a man with such a family background and this appearance, what kind of girl can't find it, so she has to go to Hualou to marry a broken flower and willow? Or is it an ordinary girl like Duan Ripple? In addition, judging from the situation this morning, the relationship between Duan Lianyi and Du Zimo is really not so intimate.

Du Zimo didn't say anything, he agreed to all of Duan Junsheng's requests, his eyebrows and eyes were gentle, his smile was sincere, he was not angry at all, and his words were his love for Duan Lianyi, and Duan Junsheng was very happy to hear it, as if the object of Du Zimo's words was him.

is really a wonderful father, Wu Xun couldn't help but think, fortunately, Duan Lianyi was sold into the Qingyi Pavilion at the beginning, if she had been raised by Duan Junsheng's side, I don't know what kind of virtue she would have cultivated.

The two talked happily, and at the end, Du Zimo paused, looked a lot more serious, and said: "Okay, now that I have to say that, Lord Yuezhang hasn't told me about you and Ripple before, but I have to tell me everything carefully, so I can plug the mouth of the insider" Halfway through his speech, he gave Duan Junsheng a meaningful look: "In case my family is not at ease, it will be bad if I find out that someone in the know has exposed the matter." So the clearer Master Yue's words are, the better, do you understand?"

Du Zimo's words were soft and gentle, but there was a sense of demagogy, and it happened that Duan Junsheng was coaxed at the moment, and blurted out almost without any consideration: "Although the son-in-law is relieved, few people know about Ripple's life experience." ”

"Oh, what do you mean by that?" Stomach Mo asked hurriedly.

"Because the people who know are basically dead, hehe" Duan Junsheng was still immersed in joy.

Du Zimo was kind and inducing: "Please also ask Lord Yue-in-law to tell your son-in-law carefully." ”

Duan Junsheng smiled, thought about it, and said slowly-

It had to start a long time ago.

The father and daughter are not from Xuncheng, this Du Zimo knows, the two are from a small village in Shu.

There is a county called Quyang County in Shu, there is a Pingtou Mountain in Quyang County, there is a Pingtou Cliff on Pingtou Mountain, the older generation often says that there are immortals living on the Pingtou Cliff.

The terrain of Pingtou Cliff is steep, overgrown with weeds, and there are three century-old trees growing on the edge of the cliff, which do not grow leaves all year round, do not bloom and bear fruit, and the bark of the trees outside peels off the ground. People always think that these trees are about to die, but they have miraculously survived year after year, and there must be gods protecting them! You see it's rotten on the outside, but it's still alive on the inside.

But the younger generation of people don't believe this, Pingtou Mountain is not clear and beautiful, and the people are not good, just a small village in the poor countryside, how can it be a fairy. After hearing this, the older generation only sighed helplessly and didn't say much.

Then one year, a young man went into the mountains to hunt rabbits and ran to the side of a cliff and accidentally cut down a tree on the edge of the cliff.

It is said that that night, a gust of wind broke off in Pingtou Village, which was about to blow off everyone's roof. The thunder outside was deafening, and the lightning seemed to split a moat, followed by three days and three nights of torrential rain, flooding the entire Pingtou Village.

Everyone had to run to the mountain in order to take refuge, and when they ran to the cliff, they found that the trees on the edge of the cliff had been cut down, and now everyone finally understood, it turned out that it was not the demon god who was going through the calamity, but the god was punishing Pingtou Village!

The torrential rain stopped for half a month, and everyone knelt down on the cliff for half a month, and after the flood receded, there was only an empty shelf left in Pingtou Village. All the spare food was exhausted during the fifteen days of evacuation, and the villagers now not only had no food, but also lost their water sources, and for a while the sound of cries and curses resounded through the valley of Pingtou Mountain. The villagers have not yet recovered from the previous blow, and something even more terrible is yet to comeβ€”after the flood, the big ones contracted a strange disease and died one by one.

Later, the officers and soldiers of the local county government came, and the villagers thought that they were finally going to be saved, but they didn't expect that these people were not here to help everyone, but to prevent the disease from spreading, and to burn all the villagers to death in the valley!

The fire burned for a day and a night, and all 39 families in the village were burned to the sea, and there was not even a single grave. As soon as the wind blew, the ashes were sprinkled all over the valley and drifted into the distance with the wind, and from then on I could only be a lonely ghost and a ghost, lamenting the sadness of this life.

But this village is not actually dead, when the officers and soldiers came to Pingtou Village, there was a family who happened to worship the three big trees on the Pingtou cliff and worship the so-called immortals.

I don't know if the gods finally calmed down their anger and actually appeared.

When the officers and soldiers dealt with the villagers, the family hid on the cliff and was able to see this scene, and they were immediately so frightened that they did not dare to return to the village. In order to escape for their lives, the family dragged their weak bodies over Pingtou Mountain and entered a strange valley.
