Chapter 187: Reception Banquet

After listening to Gu Wenxiu's words, Li Fan immediately blushed with shame. At first, it was the mute senior brother who saw her hungry and brought himself back to this dripping view. It would not be too much to say that Senior Brother Forgot to Speak saved her life. She has always regarded forgetting words as her brother, and today after listening to Master Gu Wenxiu's words, she felt a little uneasy in her heart.

"Master, I, I just took the forgotten words as my brother, I ,,, to him, to him" Lifan was a little embarrassed.

"Master is from here, I know all this, let's just say the glasses Taoist who wants to offend you. If she hadn't saved me, I wouldn't have been able to endure him for so long. It's right to repay your kindness, but that person is so hateful that it's unbearable. Gu Wenxiu said indifferently.

"Master, I will follow you from now on, and I will not follow anyone. You, are you going to go with Uncle Shi this time? Or, or let Uncle Shi stay with us? "Lifan is a very clever girl, and this is what Gu Wenxiu likes about her.

"Master, I can't keep your uncle! People are now in the Xuanqing Palace in the provincial capital, it is said that the Taoist of the Xuanqing Palace values him very much, we are poor and remote here, and I can't keep him if I want to! Gu Wenxiu couldn't help but sigh.

"You, you all knew each other before! I think you, you're quite harmonious, I don't know if I'm using the right word? "Lifan is still a little curious about this new uncle.

"We don't just know each other, we used to be brothers, taught by a master! I was older than all of them, and they all called me Senior Sister. Gu Wenxiu said as if she had returned to the era she imagined.

"Then, why did you, Master, go to a mental hospital? I just, just listened to that nasty glasses. Lifan said the curiosity in his heart.

"That's a long story! If you want to listen, just listen to me. ”

"Master, you can say it, I want to hear about you. I also want to practice the kung fu you did that day when you beat that stinky Taoist priest. Lifan's eyes were full of hope.

"Okay, you have a lot of cleverness, it's not too late to start practicing, Master, I'm even older than you are now.

I, I'm about fourteen years old, I have a serious illness, and my family thinks I won't live long, and the villagers are afraid that my disease will spread to them. My family used to have bad ingredients, but it turned out to be a scholarly family. The old people told me that there was a grandfather in my ancestors who had been admitted to the juren examination and served as a county magistrate.

Later, in my life, I began to divide it into landlords, that is, the part of people who were criticized. In this way, our family has been given a sense of remoteness from the old house. Although my family is quite poor, they and I have some culture, and they can teach me something since I was a child. So I know a lot more words than any other child.

I got it when I was in the third grade of elementary school, and I just had a cough at first, and I didn't pay much attention to it. After about a month or two, I started coughing up blood. When the adults saw that I was coughing up blood, they started to panic. We were already short of medical treatment, and there was no good way to treat my disease. Some people say that I have tuberculosis, but I didn't get any better after taking anti-inflammatory injections. The county hospital asked us to go to the big hospital, but our family is poor!

Just when everyone was worried about my illness, my master came to us. My mother left early, and my master told my father that he would take it with me. My dad can't bear it! But he thought that instead of making me so miserable, he might as well give me a chance to live. That's how my dad decided to let my master take me away.

If you want me to say why I'm familiar with this place, it's because I've lived here for four or five years. I came here shortly after I was taken away by Master. This was where Master and his brothers lived. Don't look at it now, it's not very good now, but there were about fifty or sixty Taoist priests living here back then. Speaking of this, Gu Wenxiu sighed softly.

"So, then why are there no people standing here with the people you said? Where have they all gone? Li Fan naturally had doubts about Gu Wenxiu's words.

"I won't say too much, I just want to say that some of us have done some bad things for the sake of profit. Then something happened, and we were all implicated.

The most pitiful thing is my master, someone reported him for selling fake medicine, and he died, and later many of our people here were arrested, and my master was sentenced to death.

I knew some rumors, so I ran away with your Uncle Gu. We traveled a long way and found a foothold in a larger Taoist temple. When I got there, I realized that I really got out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's mouth, and I won't tell you the specific process. In short, they really make a living by selling counterfeit medicines.

Later, that place was also destroyed by the local public security bureau. Fortunately, your other uncle, his name is Li Mugen, and we all call him by his nickname Dunzi. It was this dun that told us some information in advance, and I reached an agreement with you, Uncle Gu, and the people from the Public Security Bureau. Your Uncle Gu was later sentenced to three years for participating in counterfeit medicines, but later, considering his meritorious performance, he was sentenced to three suspended sentences.

As for me, how to say it, I'm not afraid of your jokes, so I can only pretend to be crazy. They thought I had a mental problem and put me in a psychiatric hospital. I stayed in a psychiatric hospital for a while, and when the people in the hospital weren't looking, I found an opportunity to escape.

I think the doctors and nurses were a little aware of me at that time, and I thought that if I stayed any longer, I would show my feet. Besides, the hospital doesn't want people like me to stay with them anymore. Because I don't have a hukou, I don't have an ID card, but the government sent it to me. Later, when they saw me running away, they probably didn't chase me back very seriously. Gu Wenxiu took a breath when she said this.

"Master, I didn't expect you to endure so much hardship with such great ability!" Lifan was a little moved.

"Alas, I'm a woman, what can I do.

You know, I didn't have any purpose when I escaped, but I'm kind of familiar with this dripping concept. So I ran for about six or seven hours and finally got back to where I used to live.

I thought that some brothers and sisters would come back here, but when I got here, my heart was cold. Because there is not a single person I know before, there are some charlatans and some hooligans. No matter how good I am, I can't beat these people! Besides, I couldn't run anymore by then. Just when I was about to be insulted by the rabble, it was the hateful glasses Taoist priest who helped me. As for me, because this man protected me, I was temporarily committed to him. Can you understand Master's situation? When Gu Wenxiu said this, he asked Fan by the way.

"I can understand that I was tied up by that hateful Taoist priest that day, and I was still struggling desperately, but when I saw that I was going to be beaten to death by that person. At that time, I felt that as long as I kept the forgotten words alive, I could do anything. Lifan didn't want to recall the past, but he still said what he thought at the time.

"This shows that you are a good boy who knows how to repay your kindness! If nothing else, let's talk about your junior sister. I really don't want to keep her here! But what do you think, what if we don't keep her? Let her go out and spread the things we have here? If she tells us about this place, what will the people down the mountain think of us? Won't the incense here not work in the future?

So I thought that instead of letting her go out and chew on the root of my tongue, I might as well keep her by my side and be more steady, don't you think? Gu Wenxiu asked Fan again.

"I don't like this person, and when she first started with that hateful Taoist priest, I thought she was disgusting. When the Taoist priest wanted to take advantage of me, she was hiding next to me and didn't come to help me. "When he mentions it, he gets angry.

"Hey, she was trying to protect herself! We women are so pitiful!

If I hadn't seen that you were in danger that day, I wouldn't have exposed my kung fu. Because as I told you, the two previous cases were related to me. I just want to live a good two days in peace! ”

"Master, I hurt you!" When Li Fan heard Gu Wenxiu say this, he felt that he owed Gu Wenxiu more, so he knelt down directly for Gu Wenxiu.

"Look at you, what's wrong with you! I didn't mean to ask you to thank me, but at that time I thought that glasses Taoist priest was a little too much. It's okay, even if I am arrested again because of this incident, at most I will continue to pretend to be crazy and stupid! Gu Wenxiu laughed after speaking, but this smile made Fan a little flustered.

"Master, you won't be arrested, a good person like you will definitely be rewarded. Don't you think Uncle Shi will come to you today? Li Fan hurriedly took the words and asked her to make up for it, she didn't want her Master Gu to laugh anymore.

"Alas! What's the use of him coming back? Although we have been together before, we have double-cultivated together. I'm talking about practicing Qi together. But after all, many people know about me and the Taoist priest with glasses. If someone told your uncle about those things, would your Uncle Gu dislike me! Gu Wenxiu was thoughtful.

"Master, don't worry, Senior Brother Forgetful and I will never talk about this to Uncle Gu. I'm just worried about the dust,,,"

Before Fan could finish speaking, he heard footsteps coming from outside the door. Gu Wenxiu and Lifan immediately stopped talking.

"Senior Brother Forget, is there something wrong? Do you mean let's go to dinner? I'm still a little hungry. "I know this brother the most.

Forget to say that she was very happy today, and she didn't know how this Gu Changfeng made this mute happy, Gu Wenxiu thought that this junior brother still seemed to have some skills.

The lunch at noon was very rich, not only stewed chicken, but also Gu Changfeng bought some other appetizers. In this way, the old hen that has been stewed and does not lay many eggs is less important.

And what intoxicated the dust the most was the soda that Gu Changfeng bought. Of course, only Hachioji soda was the most popular in those days.

With the exception of Livan, the other four drank beer. They closed the front door of the Dripping Water Temple before eating, but fortunately no one came all afternoon, and this meal lasted for more than three hours.
