Along the way, Xu Yongzheng began to enjoy the taste of bathing in the sun, and the air was full of freedom.

The mask on his face was quite comfortable, and he wore it for several days, without the slightest abnormality, except for the fact that he was nowhere to go four times a day, needed some oil to maintain, and was a little troublesome, he could say that he was extremely satisfied. And Xu Yongzheng was even more curious about what the Ruhua mask said in Jin Yilou's information looked like.

"Remember, Celestial Wolf, you sent me five thousand taels of silver. Xu Yongzheng understood what the red-sleeved lady said.

It turned out that the red-sleeved lady sensed Xu Yongzheng's intentions, and prepared a second Rushi mask early, put it in the mezzanine of the wooden box, and wrapped it in oilcloth.

There was also a note in the package, no doubt left by the lady with red sleeves. "I'll go back to the mountain, you should take care of yourself, the wolf will leave a prestige, and the world can go. ”

This note has been analyzed by nosy tricks to have several meanings, the first is that there is an urgent matter in the mountains waiting for the red-sleeved lady to deal with it. It's a pity that Xu Yongzheng quickly denied it, and he still doesn't know what strength the red-sleeved lady is. What kind of important things need to be handled by characters like the red-sleeved lady? The second sentence is to ask Xu Yongzheng to cherish his two masks, and he was tricked to add a sentence to cherish his body, which made Xu Yongzheng speechless for a while. And the wolf left his name, which seemed to remind Xu Yongzheng not to reveal his name, so as not to cause big trouble. Xu Yongzheng also knew very well in his heart that his current reward of 1,500 gold was enough to make many people crazy, and the identity of the wolf was just right for him to act and do things that could not be said to outsiders. And where did the red-sleeved lady know about it? It's a woman's terrible intuition. The last sentence, the world can go, I'm afraid it's a sarcastic word. He still knows it in his heart for a few pounds and taels. Still, he was looking forward to that day. The latter half of the sentence is naturally a tricky addition.

After six or seven days of hard work, Xu Yongzheng finally came to the foot of the Tibetan Soldier Mountain according to the guidance of the red-sleeved lady.

Xu Yongzheng was dressed in black, with a black horse under his crotch, and a heavy wooden box on his back, and came to a small courtyard.

This small courtyard is isolated and lonely, which seems to be out of place in this village.

Xu Yongzheng looked at this dilapidated courtyard and became suspicious for a while.

The fence outside the courtyard is tilted and crooked, as if broken by wild dogs, the low loess grass hut is lower and lower than Xu Yongzheng's horse, there is a big hole in the earthen wall, only some scraps of paper remain outside the broken wooden window, and the whole wooden window is only one or two crooked wooden sticks to support it, and no one has to repair it. There was nothing in the courtyard except for an earthen stove built haphazardly out of mud. There was no wood, no water tank, no stools, and no people.

Without a single extra piece of wood, how can this be fired?

How can you drink water without a complete water tank?

Isn't it, there are no living people in here anymore, or have the people inside already moved somewhere else?

The door was broken and the wooden plank was slanted, but Xu Yongzheng still chose to walk into the hospital. Xu Yongzheng's hands and feet were a little lighter, and the door had been weathered, but it was almost destroyed in Xu Yongzheng's hands.

When I entered the hospital, the grass hut was still dark, and on top of the earthen stove, there were several layers of thick cobwebs.

It's just that there are some things that can't be forced.

Just as Xu Yongzheng was about to return with a little disappointment, there was some movement on the side of the earthen stove.

"Squeak", "squeak", like the sound of a mouse gnawing sawdust.

Xu Yongzheng walked over to take a look and found a child with a thin figure who couldn't see his gender clearly sitting there.

The child was unclothed and emaciated, with only skin and bones left. He sat next to a broken pot, his legs the color of dust or black charcoal.

The sound came from his mouth, and the child was actually gnawing on a twig.

When he had eaten almost enough, the boy picked up the stick again and lowered his head to pound the yellow mud in the pot. It had just rained at homework, and the rain in the pot had not dried up.

The child finally noticed the arrival, he raised his head, and Xu Yongzheng saw his face.

The face was dark, except for the slightly yellowed eyes.

"Eat······ Eat ······ Eat, eat······" The child could not speak clearly, and opened his mouth and smiled, revealing his yellowed teeth.

How did such a child survive to this day?

With a "bang", a little girl of seven or eight years old threw a branch from outside the fence, and there were several bunches of fruits on the branch, the fruit was very small, but Xu Yongzheng knew this kind of thing. This fruit is called black woodworm, and the fruit is sour and astringent.

The child sitting on the ground threw down the stick in his hand, picked up the branch, and gnawed on the leaves without saying a word.

"Who are you?" the little girl asked, staring at Xu Yongzheng.

"I'm here to find the blacksmith. ”

"Blacksmith, he stopped striking iron more than a year ago. ”

"Then who is this little girl? Is it the blacksmith's family?" asked Xu Yongzheng.

"Hee-hee, he's a little boy, a fool of the blacksmith's family. The little girl replied.

"What about the blacksmith?"

"I don't know, I heard the adults say that they may be gone, or they may be drunk in the vat. ”

"Is he a fool?" Xu Yongzheng asked, feeling like he was asking an idiot's question. Not a fool, can you live like this?

"He's not just a little stupid, he's weird. ”

"Then why are you bringing him food?"

The little girl lowered her head and said, "This is not food, my family is also poor, and every day is wild vegetable soup, so I can only pick some wild fruits from the mountains for him to eat." Don't worry, I've eaten all of these non-poisonous. The girl's mouth was a little black, apparently having tasted the black wood first.

"Alright, I'm going to hunt pigweed. Big brother, don't tell others that I've been here, otherwise, those children won't take me to play. The little girl left with a basket on her back.

Look at the fool on the ground again, he ate all the black woodworms, and his mouth emitted some syllables that Xu Yongzheng couldn't recognize.

"Let's go, don't show any kindness. It's also a burden for this kid to stay around. ”

Xu Yongzheng listened to the sophistry and nodded.

Suddenly, the child grabbed his head and raised his head to the sky and shouted, "Ah······ Ah······h Ah······h Ah······h

Perhaps because the pain could not be relieved, the child actually smashed his head on the earthen stove, and the earthen stove was smashed with a hole in the shape of a bowl, which fit the head quite well.

The child kicked his feet on the ground in pain, clung to his head, and cried out, "It hurts······ Painful ·······"

Xu Yongzheng saw a clear scene in the sea, which made Wei see it thoroughly.

The same ragged, skinny child rolled on the ground with his head in his hands, and the child would hit the ground with his head and kick on the ground, while an old Taoist priest stood beside him.

"Child, you and I are destined, and I can't die without help. From this day on, go with me. ”

This is the scene when Qi Lao Shenzhu and Xu Yongzheng met for the first time. And Qi Lao Shenstick also reminded the past many times after that, and each time he emphasized how miserable Xu Yongzheng was at the beginning.

Old god stick, could it be that this is the way of heaven and reincarnation?

Was that what I was like that back then?, and how did you take me in??

The child's pain was not only worse, but also more intense, and he actually tore off a handful of his hair, and it was dripping with blood.

With a flash of lightning, the boy slammed his head into the iron pot.

Xu Yongzheng's figure flashed, and he came to the child's side, holding the child's shoulders with both hands, and stopped his behavior.

Where is there half a part of flesh on the shoulders of this child, only the craggy bones, which are particularly piercing the hands.

The child's mouth opened and bit Xu Yongzheng's arm.

Xu Yongzheng also endured it quietly and did not make a sound.

And so the boy finally fell asleep.

And the Jin Ge Sword Master, who had not been injured for a long time, was actually injured in the hands of a child. That piece of meat was about to be bitten off by the child.

Seeing Xu Yongzheng's scene in the sea, he knew that there was no possibility of convincing Xu Yongzheng, so he didn't speak anymore.

Xu Yongzheng held the child in his arms, looking lonely.
