Chapter 3: Adoption as a Servant

Xuan Chen smiled faintly and said, "A little thin name, not enough to worry about!" ”

Li Xiangrong's face was excited, and he suddenly knelt in front of Xuan Chen, kowtowed, and said, "Divine doctor, I'...... I...... Can I ask you for one thing? With that, he looked at Xiaobao.

Xuan Chen looked at Fang Chengtian and gave him a look.

Fang Chengtian nodded, stepped forward to help Li Xiangrong, and said, "Please speak." ”

Li Xiangrong pointed at Xiaobao and said, "Can you please take Xiaobao away!" ”

Xiaobao was sitting there eating steamed buns, and there were still tears on his face.

Fang Chengtian nodded, then frowned, "What about you?" ”

Li Xiangrong smiled, moved his eyes to the corpse of his wife by the stove, and said, "I want to stay with her mother!" ”

"Hey~~~" Fang Chengtian sighed, glanced at Xiaobao, looked at Li Xiangsong and whispered, "The child is already miserable without a mother, do you want to let the child lose his father?" Presumably your late lady doesn't want her children to be orphaned, right? ”

"This ......" Li Xiangrong frowned, looked at Xiaobao, and then at his wife, looking a little embarrassed.

Fang Chengtian said with a straight face: "If you insist on going with your wife, Master and I will never care about this matter anymore!" ”

Li Xiangrong looked at Fang Chengtian with some surprise, this young man is a disciple of the divine doctor, but the divine doctor still seems to be guilty because of Fang Cai's matter, so the opinion of the young man in front of him must represent the opinion of the divine doctor.

And although this young man is not very old, he looks like he is in his twenties, but he has a sense of clarity and ease, giving people a sense of otherworldliness, like an immortal.

Li Xiangrong didn't dare to disbelieve what the immortal said, and he didn't dare to gamble with Xiaobao's life, but he couldn't open his mouth for a while, and asked to take his father and son away together, so he had to frown, clenched his teeth, and looked unspeakable.

Fang Chengtian looked at Li Xiangrong quietly for a long time, smiled faintly, and made a gesture to Master Xuanchen, and said: "Master, we rushed to Yunzhou to join the army all the way, didn't we just lack an entourage, the disciple thinks that Brother Li is just right, and I ask Master to decide!" ”

Xuanchen stroked his beard, looked at Fang Chengtian, and said with a wry smile: "Chengtian is right. ”

As he spoke, he looked at Li Xiangrong again and said, "I just don't know what you think?" ”

"I ......" Li Xiangrong hesitated for a moment, feeling that if he resigned, it would be a little uninteresting, and being able to be a servant to the divine doctor Xuanchen was his own blessing and Xiaobao's blessing, as for the fact that he almost died at the hands of the divine doctor, it was his deliberate doing, and it did not affect his worship of the divine doctor.

Li Xiangrong hurriedly gave Xuan Chen and Fang Cheng a deep look, and said, "Thank you for your love, master, I will definitely do a good job and never disappoint your great kindness!" ”

Xuanchen stroked his silver beard and said with a smile: "This is very good! ”

Li Xiangrong gritted his teeth and said, "It's just ...... It's just ......"

Fang Chengtian frowned and said with a smile: "Brother Li, what do you want to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

"Huh......" Li Xiangrong exhaled lightly, looked at Fang Chengtian and said, "Just now the young master said that he was going to Yunzhou to join the army, I ......"

Li Xiangrong let out a long breath again, plucked up the courage and said: "The little one wants to persuade the old master and the young master, when there is chaos today, and the army is even more chaotic, you ......" Speaking of this, he felt that Fang Chengtian must have known what he meant, so he stopped his mouth.

Fang Chengtian chuckled and said: "Brother Li, you misunderstood, the army we are going to join is the righteous army built by Wang Xianzhi, the general of Tianbu Average, and the army is full of people who are suffering from the harsh expropriation of the imperial court and rise up to resist. ”

Saying that, Fang Chengtian glanced at Li Xiangrong and said: "At present, Yunzhou has been occupied by the rebels, there is no oppression, there is no exploitation, you will be free after you arrive in Yunzhou with us, you and Xiaobao can live there with peace of mind." ”

"Young Master!" Li Xiangrong shook his head, and said in a firm tone: "Wherever you and the master go, I will follow!" Master, young master, please wait a moment. ”

As soon as the words fell, Li Xiangrong hurriedly walked into the inner room, and after a while, he took out a set of old paper and pencils.

Fang Chengtian looked puzzled and said, "Brother Li, what are you doing here?" ”

Li Xiangrong made a gesture and said: "Back to the young master, I will write a contract for the young master, and from now on, my Li family will be the servant of the master and the young master for generations." ”

"Don't, don't, don't!!" Fang Chengtian hurriedly said, "We just asked you to be an entourage, not to ask you to sell yourself." ”

Li Xiangrong smiled bitterly: "If it weren't for the great kindness of the master and the young master, my Li family would be doomed, and I have no long things, so I can only repay the old man and the young master by making cattle and horses for the rest of my life." ”

Fang Chengtian frowned and looked at Master Xuanchen, and when he saw Xuanchen nodded, he spoke: "Since this is the case, then it is up to you, but this contract does not need to be written, if this person is not trustworthy, even if there are many agreements, it is like nothing." ”

"This ......" Li Xiangrong pondered for a moment and nodded in response, "Master, young master, please rest assured, although I, Li Xiangrong, am a poor man, I have also read books for a few years when I was young, and I know the word 'Xinyi'!" Also, the identity of you and my master and servant has been decided, Brother Li, I really can't afford it! You can call me by my name in the future. ”

Fang Chengtian nodded, pointed to the corpse of the woman by the stove, and sighed, "Let's bury your wife first!" ”

The sun has sunk, and the bright moon shines in the sky, shining on this barren land, shining on a dead forest intertwined with dead branches, shining on the old graves in the dry forest, revealing a deep and terrifying atmosphere.

Li Xiangrong was sweating profusely, holding a hoe in both hands, standing in a shallow pit about half a zhang wide and one zhang long, digging down incessantly.

On the side of the shallow pit, Xuan Chen looked at Li Xiangrong with the sleeping Xiaobao, and Fang Chengtian was putting an empty dustpan that had just been poured into the shallow pit.

On the other side of the pit lay the body of Li Xiangrong's wife, whose cooked hand had been fastened to her arm with two wooden sticks.

In the silent dead woods, Li Xiangrong's heavy breathing and digging sound were particularly loud.

Suddenly, a thin sound of footsteps came from the night, Fang Chengtian frowned, and looked intently, only to see a figure sneakily swaying in the dead woods under the moonlight, looking at the direction in which it was walking, it was actually coming towards them.

After a while, the figure stood three or four steps away from Fang Chengtian.

This is a man about thirty years old, thin as withered, with a hemp face, he glanced at everyone, looked at Li Xiangrong with a puzzled face, and said, "Yo, isn't this Li Xiangrong?" What are you doing here at night? Huh......"

At this time, the pock-faced man saw the corpse of Li Xiangrong's wife on the edge of the shallow pit, and laughed loudly: "Haha, when did your mother-in-law die?" Oh, don't bury it, if you are reluctant to eat, you will exchange your son for ......"
