Volume 1 Ending in the Human Realm Chapter 2 The Test of the Old Man

Liu Buyi, who got lunch from Li's house, hurried home, and when he got home, he found that the old man on the bed was gone, and Liu Buyi, who was wandering around the house, did not find the old man.

Liu Buyi, who eats steamed buns at home, although a lunch is white flour steamed buns dipped in pickles, but still eats like delicacies from the mountains and seas, the young man has not tasted the rich and expensive diet, but every year on the day of the New Year, the Li family will add meals to the servants at home, this meal is the most luxurious meal in a year for Liu Buyi, there are roast duck, chicken legs, and roast suckling pig, which is enough for Liu Buyi to rely on this meal, and miss a year.

During the meal, Liu Buyi was also thinking about the afternoon, in addition to chopping wood for the old lady Wang Po in the east of the village, he also had to send packages to the Mafu Shijin in the west of the village.

However, Mafu Shijin's work is not every day, every month on the third day, tenth, sixteenth, and twenty-fourth, Mafu Shijin will come from the city and bring back some letters, packages, etc. from people outside Qingshui Village.

And Mafu Shijin is not only in charge of Qingshui Village, so he does not stay in Qingshui Village for a long time every time, at the beginning, this work is not done by Liu Buyi, Qingshui Village is not big, but hundreds of households are added together, there are close to one or two thousand people, and there are a lot of children in the village, and no one can take Liu Buyi's turn.

If Liu Buyi hadn't spent more than a dozen copper plates and bribed Yang Tianzhen, a blacksmith who was good friends with the groom, he really wouldn't have a chance.

Fortunately, one bottle of gourd brew, but two copper plates, Liu Buyi spent eight bottles of gourd brew in exchange for this particularly stable income.

Soon, Liu Buyi, who had finished lunch, calculated the time, closed the door, and went to Wang Po.

Liu Buyi's door is a very old wooden door, a creaking wooden door, crumbling, but every time Liu Buyi goes out, he will bring the door shut, and finally put on a small lock, and he didn't notice that there is a shallow trace carved on the left door of the wooden door.

The trail was new, unnoticeable under the mottled traces of age on the door, but it was not subtle either.

By the time Liu Buyi finished chopping firewood for Wang Po, it was already about three o'clock in the afternoon, and he was not lightly tired, so he just took a short rest and rushed to the entrance of the village to the west of the village, where Mafu Shijin was already waiting for him.

When he left Wang Po's house, Wang Po wanted to repay the debt, but Liu Buyi was fine, although he didn't ask Wang Po's copper plate, but he asked Wang Po to give him some potatoes, because there is a vacant land in the family's vegetable garden, which has been deserted for a while, and these potatoes can be planted tonight.

Shi Jin is a sturdy middle-aged man, with a three-seven haired style, dark and shiny skin, powerful and powerful, and he looks particularly powerful.

Shi Jin, who was rude-mouthed, scolded and scolded from afar: "It's not easy to be a cub, you are a lot late today, and you have delayed Uncle Ben's business, I have to deduct my wages!"

Liu Buyi laughed with him, obviously knowing that he was at a loss, "Brother Shi, where are the goods today?"

Shi Jin was obviously scolding, but he was a rough man, he casually threw Liu Buyi a few packages and dozens of letters, and then told Liu Buyi where these things were one by one.

Liu Buyi nodded, and said after making sure that it was correct: "Brother Shi, there are a lot less goods today!"

"That's not it, it's cheap for you kid!" After Shi Jin finished speaking, he took out two copper plates, and then put them in Liu Buyi's hand and said, "Remember to deliver these things on time, otherwise if the customer complains that I am late, you will have to get out!"

"That's natural!Brother Shi, we've been working together for so many years, you still can't trust me!" Liu Buyi nodded.

"Okay, it's time for me to go, by the way, remember to tell Yang Tianzhen that I'm going to go to him for a drink in a few days, and let him prepare things to meet me!" Shi Jin finished speaking, and left Qingshui Village in an ox cart pulling the goods.

"Okay, when the time comes, I will definitely let Brother Yang buy good wine, waiting for you to come!" Liu Buyi said happily in the back.

Shi Jin waved his hand, beaming, and the figure under the sunset was very long and free.

Liu Buyi sorted out all the letters and parcels in different categories, and sent the parcels and letters door to door with a familiar car, these years, on the stone road of Qingshui Village, this figure came and went in a hurry, from the small appearance of the past, to the tall man who has grown up a lot, the weeds on the side of the road, witnessed the wind, frost, rain and snow of the young man along the way.

Liu Buyi, who returned home, looked at a somewhat yellowed book at the door of his house, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

The time has come to evening, the sky is getting dark, the book is hidden under the crack of the door, half is inside, half is outside, with a warped corner, obviously it has been read a lot, Liu Buyi pulled out the book from the crack in the door, and then held it in his arms quite preciously, opened the door, pushed the door open and entered the house, lit the lamp, and then put the book on the table, closed the door skillfully, scooped rice from the rice tank, fetched water from the water tank, and the smoke curled, in this dilapidated house, the warmth was strong.

After Liu Buyi finished eating, there were already stars outside, Liu Buyi rested for a while, he pushed open the door and came to a vacant lot in the yard, taking advantage of the night, the weather was a little cool, he took out a hoe and potatoes, and after an hour, the potatoes were planted, and sprinkled with water, and the renovated soil was slightly raised, giving birth to Liu Buyi in the second half of the year Liu Buyi will be able to have a lot of potatoes, and his food can also be a little richer at that time.

Not far from the next door, the peppers have begun to bloom, looking at the small white flowers scattered on the branches, Liu Buyi stretched his waist with great satisfaction, and carried the hoe back to the house to wash.

The night was thick, the oil lamp in the hut was faint, and Liu Buyi opened the book at the table, there were many annotations on it, including pinyin and annotations, dense, which made people a little panicked, but Liu Buyi was patient, reading word by word, spelling, and understanding.

Soon after his grandfather passed away, he began to read and write, and he could not afford to read in the village library, nor did he have time to read, to support his family, it was supposed to be an adult to do, but he had already started, but fortunately he had a very good friend, at least in his opinion, a friend.

Li Nanyang, the fourth lady of the Li family, is the pearl of the Li family, and she is also a good friend of Liu Buyi.

From the pinyin alphabet at the beginning, to the phonics notes at the back, word by word, until Liu Buyi was able to learn independently, Li Nanyang made a lot of efforts.

In Xiao Suo's house, Liu Buyi was lying on his side on the bed, with the light of the oil lamp, he had finished reading half of the book and it was already midnight, the dark clouds receded, the stars receded, a full moon appeared, the moonlight sprinkled, and the young man in the house solemnly put away the five copper plates he earned today, and then blew out the oil lamp and fell asleep gently.

It has been five years since my grandfather passed away, and the boy has gone from being confused and scared at the beginning to sleeping peacefully.

The silver moonlight shone on this desolate hut, the silver thatch was delicate, and on the gate outside the courtyard, a silver light flashed by.

In the darkness in the distance, a rickety figure came quietly, and when the rickety figure slowly walked to the door, the moonlight fell on his face, it was the old man that Liu Buyi saved during the day.

Looking at this simple courtyard, the old man stood outside the fence, with a sun-moon scene in his eyes.

"Maybe this is a fate! Young man, if you can pass these tests, I will officially accept you as a disciple!" The old man touched his beard, stared at the full moon above his head, and finally disappeared into the darkness.

And in the vegetable garden of Liu's family, the potatoes that have just been planted, the green shoots came out of the soil overnight, and the peppers with white flowers next to them have actually begun to bear fruit at this moment, at the door, a cyan wind chime does not know when to hang on the eaves of Liu Buyi's house, the night breeze is light, the wind chimes sound, and a ripple crashes into Liu Buyi's dream.

In the haze, Liu Buyi came to a magical world, this is a pale world, there are broken pavilions, collapsed rainbow bridges, fallen stone statues, a light stands in the endless distance ahead, and the clouds and mist are rolling under Liu Buyi's feet.

"Who are you?" a void voice rang out, coming from the light far away, it was the voice of an old man.

"I'm Liu Buyi!" Liu Buyi hesitated a little, he replied slowly, he was a little uncertain, he didn't know where he had come? This is his own dream, right? Liu Buyi continued to think.

The endless light suddenly came to Liu Buyi's body, shining on Liu Buyi like a mountain cliff.

Liu Buyi couldn't open his eyes, so he had to subconsciously stretch out his hand to block his eyes, but he felt that the light was warm, which made him very comfortable.

"You can actually come here!" The figure was a little surprised, he stared at the young man in front of him, a figure came out of the light, if Liu Buyi could go to see it, he would find that this figure was a very graceful and beautiful person.

Her temples are towering, her skin is like snow, her scarf is rolling, she is tall, and she seems to have endless brilliance between her gestures, and the goddess and fairy are in front of her, nothing more than that!

"Who are you?" Liu Buyi squinted and asked.

"Interesting! You can actually withstand my halo, you must know that even if you are a peerless person in front of me, you will turn to ashes!" The figure was a little surprised, but also a little curious.

She wanted to possess and look at this young man, but the world didn't seem to allow her to do so, a trace of spatial ripples appeared like black lightning, and pale chains appeared out of thin air, locked on the limbs of this figure.

"Hmph!" The figure was very displeased, she looked down at this Fang Tianyu, but in the end she didn't struggle, she didn't know how long she had been trapped, how long the time was, she had no concept at all, endless hatred, as if it had also been sharpened, but these hatreds had not dissipated, but she had begun to accept it.

Liu Buyi didn't understand what she was talking about, he felt as if his whole body was being scorched by the scorching sun at the moment, making him feel like he was going to burn at any time.

"Are you an immortal?" Liu Buyi said uncomfortably, he stepped back, subconsciously wanting to stay away from this figure, and at this moment, Liu Buyi suddenly opened his eyes, and he woke up.

Outside Qingshui Village, by the Qingshui River, an old man bowed down and sat by the river fishing, he held a turquoise fishing rod, and there was a fishing basket next to him, and he lifted the fishing line from time to time, his eyelids were raised, and his eyes crossed the mountains and rivers, and fell in the nameless place.

"Interesting, it's just that you haven't crossed this first level!" After the old man finished speaking, he threw the straight hook in his hand into the water again, this straight hook, can you fish? Fortunately, no one pays attention, otherwise it is estimated that someone will have to laugh to death, Lao Suo does not care about his straight hook, he is very patient.

The sun rose in the east, the sun was shining, the young Liu Buyi sat up from the bed, he felt like he had soaked in the water tank, sweat wet his bed, he felt as if he had climbed several mountains last night.

After getting up and taking a shower, he regained some strength and energy, but last night's grotesque dream haunted him.

Liu Buyi went out to breathe in the fresh air, and then looked at his vegetable garden, and the wind chimes that were originally hanging on the eaves were quietly hidden, Liu Buyi was a little surprised, the vegetables in his own field were growing luxuriantly, which made Liu Buyi hesitate a little more.

Something strange happened around me.

Liu Buyi is an orphan, he is alive, no one worries about him, so everything needs to be taken care of by himself, and the vegetables in the field seem to have grown a lot overnight, he feels it, but he doesn't know the reason, Liu Buyi has a strong question in his heart.

This is the first time Liu Buyi has questioned in recent years, and it is also the first time he feels afraid, it stands to reason that this is a good thing, but Liu Buyi did not understand this kind of good thing as a fluke of blessings, because he didn't know what happened to lead to such a result, unknown, it was dangerous, this is the psychology that he is surviving now and carefully cultivated.

However, there was no time for him to think about it at the moment, because he needed to go out to work.
