Chapter 3: Senior Brother Liang Ze
The person who came was dressed in a washed white cyan robe, twenty-five or sixteen years old, with a slender figure, estimated to be one meter eight, with a yellow cloth bag on his right shoulder and a pair of straw sandals stained with mud.
This stranger, who was dressed indecently, began to look at my yard after entering the door, and naturally saw me.
I hurriedly sat up from the threshold, took a few steps towards him, and spoke:
"Hello, who are you looking for?"
After speaking, he shouted to the kitchen:
"Mom, someone is at home, come out and see."
I thought to myself that I hadn't seen this person, and that he was definitely not looking for me, he was probably looking for my parents.
"You're Jiang Ling, right?"
The visitor stared me straight in the eye and asked.
But there was not a hint of doubt in his tone, as if he had known who I was, just to confirm.
"Yes, may I ask who you are?"
I was a little surprised that this stranger actually knew my name, but I really didn't know him, he was dressed like a Taoist priest that my father had invited to catch ghosts.
At this time, I saw that he had sword eyebrows and starry eyes, red lips and white teeth, his skin was even more like powder, and his long black shawl hair was tied with a yellow rope, as if he was afraid that others would not see his face.
I've never seen such a good-looking man, and for a moment I lost my mind a little, and thought:
It's a pity that he has such a handsome face, and instead of being an actor, he did this trick of pretending to be a ghost.
"My name is Liang Ze, and I am your senior brother."
When the visitor saw me staring at his face in a daze, he spoke, and his gaze never took off my eyes the whole time.
"Senior brother?" I didn't come back to my senses for a while, and subconsciously asked, but suddenly thought of the master Wudao, and continued to speak in surprise:
"Are you the apprentice of Master Wudao?"
"Yes, the four-year appointment, the master has not forgotten, but there is something wrong with it, and he has no choice but to order me to come to the appointment on his behalf."
After listening to my brother's words, I felt a little lost in my heart, and the smile on my face also subsided a little.
In the past four years, I have missed Master Wudao very much, and I have many questions in my heart that I want to ask him.
Probably seeing my loss, my brother took off the yellow cloth bag on his shoulder, stuffed it into my hand, and said that it was handed over to me by the master.
After taking the package, I subconsciously wanted to open it and look at it, but I thought that my brother was still standing in the yard, so I quickly invited my brother into the house.
At this moment, my mother came out of the kitchen and happened to see my brother, and I hurriedly introduced my brother's identity, saying that he was the apprentice of Master Wudao and my brother.
"Hello aunt, my name is Liang Ze, you can call me Xiao Liang."
The senior brother bowed slightly and said to his mother, a rare smile appeared on his face.
"I thought you had one expression, senior brother, but you could laugh too." I whispered that he had the same expression from the time I entered the door to the time I saw my mother, and I suspected that he was a facial paralyzed.
After listening to the senior brother's self-introduction, the mother quickly wiped her hands on the apron and said:
"Then don't stand, hurry up and sit in the house, why don't you have so much eyesight, why don't you pour water for your senior brother, oops, you see this guy is really handsome, my little zero can be half as handsome as you!"
The senior brother followed his mother to the hall, and his handsome face was slightly embarrassed.
I pursed my lips and thought to myself:
You can't blame the government for this hard life, and you can't blame your parents for being ugly. Besides, I'm not very ugly, although I don't look like Pan An like my senior brother, but there are girls who have chased me in college, and it seems that people are really angry compared to people.
I put the cloth bag my brother gave me in my room, and before I had time to open it, I hurried to serve tea and pour water.
The houses in my hometown are generally divided into the north house and the east house, the north house is warm in winter and cool in summer, which is used for people, and the south house is just the opposite, so it can only be used as a kitchen or to pile up sundries.
The north room of my house is divided into three rooms, the larger one in the middle is called the hall room, which is used to greet guests, and the smaller ones on both sides are called the upper and lower attics, the upper attic is the parents' room, and the lower attic is my nest.
I carried the kettle I brought from the kitchen, poured a cup of hot tea for my brother sitting at the table in the hall, pulled a stool and sat down across from him, looking at him with blazing eyes.
At this time, my mother had gone back to the kitchen to continue cooking, and there were only two people in the room, my brother and me.
"I know what you're going to ask, I can only tell you that the master has gone to a far away place, what he has to do this time is very difficult, I can't go to that place now, the master won't be able to come back for a while, this is not something you should worry about, the master asked me to stay with you during this time, you quickly tell me, how does your left eye feel now, is there anything unusual?"
The senior brother said so many words in one breath, which surprised me a little, you must know that from the beginning of entering the door, he cherished words like gold, as if he had to charge for his spit.
Looking at the words and eyes still firmly fixed on my senior brother, I quickly said what happened in Beiquan that day.
Listening to my statement, my brother's face gradually sank.
When I heard me say that Beiquan had become filthy now, two cold rays shot out of my senior brother's eyes.
I can't imagine that people's eyes can be so cold, and the invisible pressure that hits my face in an instant makes my back soaked with sweat.
I unconsciously closed my mouth and looked at him in disbelief.
Seeing that my face was a little pale, my eyes quickly glanced away, reached out and took a sip of the teacup on the table, and said sorry softly.
When he turned his head again and nodded for me to continue, his expression had regained his composure.
I tugged at the clothes that were stuck to my back, didn't dare to look at him anymore, stared at the teacup in front of me and continued.
When I heard me say that I had fainted after looking at the dirty spring water a few times, my brother suddenly became uncalm again, got up and stood, and was beside me in an instant.
I saw that he quickly pinched a sword finger in his right hand, ordered me to close my eyes, and put the two fingers on my left eyelid, which was exactly the same as the master's technique back then.
I immediately felt a chill in my eyes, and then I felt refreshed.
"Fortunately, it is not a big problem, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. The master said that the Chaos Yin Spring has given birth to the spring spirit, but from the day of awakening, it will be less than ten years, and more than a hundred years, but this breath is clearly the chaotic yin qi that the master said? ”
The senior brother whispered to himself, took his fingers off my eyelids, walked to the chair he had just sat on, and sat down again, staring at the table in front of him in deep thought.
After a long time, he slowly turned his head to look at me again, his eyes full of doubt, but he stopped talking.
I don't understand what he muttered just now, what kind of spring spirit, chaotic, it sounds very noble.
"It seems that these can only be figured out when the master comes back, don't worry about it for now, you go on, I want to see which bastard dares to hit Yin Quan's idea."
Senior Brother said with a sinister face.
"That's it!"
I was afraid that my senior brother would think that I had a mental problem, so I omitted the things about hearing hallucinations and seeing hallucinations.
"How did the spring become what it is today? You don't know? Senior brother asked me speechlessly.
"I don't know, but, I almost forgot, my dad told me something, I don't know if it has anything to do with the changes in Beiquan, I'll tell you."
As I spoke, I told my brother exactly what my father had told me about what had happened in the village in the past few years.
Senior brother listened to me carefully, did not interject in the middle, and his expression did not fluctuate in the slightest from beginning to end.
I was amazed at his concentration, and I was so frightened when I heard my father say this.
