It gets dark so fast. In the summer, it gets dark so quickly, and it's mostly going to rain. Sure enough, when Shen Yigong was burying one corpse and preparing to bury another, thunder suddenly roared, and heavy rain poured down. He struggled to swing his shovel in the mud to fill the hole, and when he looked back at the vast and barren reeds, he was stunned for a moment, at a loss.

He was so remorseful in his heart that he cursed himself for not being able to shoot. But on the other hand, it is inevitable to think, that is a human life! How can it be said that if you are killed, you will be killed?

Shen Yigong was so depressed that he sat in the mud. He thought to himself that he couldn't go, and once he left, he wouldn't find a chance to avenge his mother in his life. But what now?

Go back and find Master. No matter what, you have to find him and beg him not to drive him away. Thinking so, he still had to go back to the Huo Mansion first.

Shen Yigong has been pulling the rickshaw for so long, and his foot strength is beyond the ability of ordinary people, even if he is thrown in such a remote place, he knows how to go as soon as the map moves in his mind. When he arrived at Huo's house, Xu's mother came over with an umbrella to open the door for him, and when she saw his embarrassed appearance, she sighed, thinking that she had received Huo Zuo's advice early and didn't dare to let him in.

Shen Yigong stood outside the house in the rain: "Mother Xu, please, let me see Master!" ”

Mother Xu looked at the child: "Since you can't do what your master told you to do, it's better to leave like this, don't wade in troubled waters this time." You can't get past it! ”

"Mother Xu, I have to wade if I can't get past this! Please, Mama Xu, just let me see Master! ”

The old aunt was also embarrassed, looked back at the servants in the house, and saw that no one was paying attention to this for the time being, so she hurriedly lowered her head and said to Huo Zuo: "Your master is not here." If you really want to ask for it, go to the Qingyuan Restaurant on Middle Sichuan Road and find a woman named You Yiman. Tell her who you are and what you mean. Honestly, don't lie half-heartedly. Whether she can help you or not depends on your own creation. ”

Mother Xu showed him a clear way. Shen Yigong bowed deeply to her in the rain, ignoring the heavy rain, turned around and ran into the thin and dense rain curtain. Mother Xu stood by the door and sighed, watching his back fade away, looked at the umbrella in her hand and muttered, "Why did you forget to give this umbrella to that child." ”

Shen Yigong recognized the way, and he could run over by giving a place name. When he arrived in front of the Qingyuan Restaurant, he just wanted to go in, but the doorkeeper stopped him. The other party saw that he was muddy and disgusted, and shouted: "Where did you come from, wild boy?" Do you know what kind of place this is to dare to break in? ”

Shen Yigong really didn't know what this place was, he only knew that Huo Zuo was here, and he had to find You Yiman and let the woman intercede for him.

"I'm looking for someone! I'm looking for You Yiman! My name is Shen Yigong, and I am Huo Zuo's apprentice, and I was told that I could find her here! ”

The two gatekeepers glanced at each other, turned their heads and said in disgust: "Even a broken boy like you dare to call our boss's name?" Don't get out of here! ”

Here on the middle Sichuan Road, where the rich and noble come and go, Shen Yigong was covered in mud and rain, and he was like a small loach thrown into the golden carp among these ladies and gentlemen. Left or right shouldn't be where he came from.

Seeing that it didn't make sense, Shen Yigong could only break through. Although he can't kill people, he has followed Huo Zuo for half a year, and his kung fu has advanced thousands of miles day by day, and ordinary people are by no means his opponents. As soon as he raised his hand and pushed his knees up, the two gatekeepers couldn't stop him at all, but he was thrown to the ground in three moves. One shouted, "Someone! Someone is here to smash the field! ”

Shen Yigong was really anxious: "I'm really not smashing the field, I just want to find You Yiman, your boss lady!" ”

I saw a group of thugs in black clothes rushing down from the upper floors and surrounding Shen Yigong. Everyone picked up the guy in their hands, put on a posture, and just waited for someone to give an order, and then they would do it to this stunned young man. The martial arts dojo downstairs was opened, and Shen Yigong was so anxious that he was sweating, and the misunderstanding was getting bigger and bigger. But I didn't want to, a young woman called from the second floor: "Hey, don't fight yet." ”

Several thugs looked up, and Shen Yigong also looked up. I saw a young woman in a light purple cheongsam standing by the railing, with curly medium-long hair, light makeup, and a thin body.

The girl looked at Shen Yigong's face and asked him upstairs, "What did you say your name was?" Whose disciple? ”

Shen Yigong hurriedly replied: "My name is Shen Yigong!" It's Huo Zuo's disciple! ”

The girl made a gesture to tell the gang to hold the boy here first, and she herself went into the house, and came out in a short time, with a gentle gesture of her hand. Several thugs put down their sticks one after another, making way for Shen Yigong to go upstairs. The young man didn't know how this change came, so he hurriedly stepped on the stairs and went upstairs, and when he came to the girl, he hurriedly stepped forward and thanked him: "Thank you for this sister." If it weren't for my sister to help me today, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to see the boss lady no matter what. ”

"If you shout loudly downstairs like this and beat people with your hands, the proprietress won't spare you easily." The girl glanced at him and led him to You Yiman's house. When Shen Yigong heard this, he lowered his head and was slightly ashamed: "I don't want to do this either." I just want to see the proprietress and let my master forgive me, and I am not afraid of how she punishes me. ”

The girl took him to the door, listened to him, and sarcastically said, "It's quite a big tone." ”

Then he pushed the door open and reported inside: "Mom, I brought you that kid named Shen Yigong." ”

"Brought?" There was a noise in the back room.

The girl took half a step back, gave Shen Yi a bow and asked him to enter. The young man walked into the house and said timidly, "Yes...... Boss You? ”

I saw a bright red and plump shadow curling from behind the curtain, carrying a strong fragrance of roses. Shen Yigong raised his head and looked at the faces of the people who came carefully, he had never seen such a gorgeous woman, and he was a little stunned.

You Yiman shook his fan and called him, "Shen Yigong, right?" What do you ask Boss You to do? It's very raw. Your master almost calls me sister, so it's better to call me aunt. ”

Shen Yigong knew that his eyes were abrupt, so he hurriedly lowered his head and called respectfully: "Auntie." ”

You Yiman's steps were slow, unhurried, and walked around him, his eyes like a light breeze sweeping him up and down. Then he sat down on a chaise longue next to him, shook the thin fan in his hand and asked, "Why did you fall so embarrassed?" ”

Shen Yigong remembered Xu's mother's advice, and replied truthfully: "I just came back from the suburbs and stepped on the mud." At this, he looked back at the footprints he had left behind and blushed, "...... Trampled on my aunt's ground. ”

You Yiman looked the young man up and down with a smile, seeing that he was ashamed of this filth, and directly forgave him: "It's okay, someone wiped it." What do you say you came to me for? Looking for Master? ”

Shen Yigong nodded.

"Your master went to find it himself, why did you come to me to find it?"

"I ...... Master doesn't want me today. ”

In fact, You Yiman knew about this, but she deliberately asked as if she didn't know: "Why don't you want you?" I think you're a very honest kid. ”

Shen Yigong didn't add oil and vinegar, and told her honestly: "Xu is too honest for me." Master asked me to kill someone, but I was useless, and my hands trembled when I shot them. After he had dealt with the people, he told me to leave. ”

"Then it means that you should not be the material for this bowl of rice, so why force yourself to commit this sin? Isn't it nice to be gone? ”

"I can't go, it's not that I can't kill, I just ...... I just ......"

Seeing that the kid was forced to blush, You Yiman playfully waited for him to answer: "Just what?" ”

Shen Yigong stood there with his hands clenched into fists, and after a while, he lowered his head and looked at the soles of his feet: "It's just that I haven't passed the hurdle in my heart yet......"

The woman stood there and looked at him for a while, then turned her body to the other side and propped her head: "But your master is not the temperament to wait for people." He is very anxious, who knows when you will be able to pass that hurdle in your heart? What does he do? He's with a knife, little one, don't push yourself like that, forget it. If you don't have any money, I'll lend you one. ”

"It's not money. I just want to follow my master. I...... I can only take revenge if I follow him! Shen Yigong's two fists became tighter and tighter, and his nails seemed to be embedded in the flesh, "I want to avenge my mother, and the person I want to kill has to be done by myself." And if I want to kill him with my own hands, I can only follow my master's path. ”

He told the truth, but You Yiman didn't give him an answer for a while. This silence made Shen Yigong feel flustered. He raised his head and met You Yiman's eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

The woman's hand supporting her head, her fingertips gently rubbing her lips, and after a moment, she opened her mouth: "Then, as long as you can make your master change his mind, you can do anything?" ”

"Anything goes! Kill anyone! If the only way to make Master change his mind is to kill someone, I will force myself to do it no matter what. ”

"Don't don't, don't go to my aunt's place, don't mention this kind of beating and killing. We don't have this here. You Yiman said as he straightened up on the chaise longue, "I have a way, but it's not easier than killing, as long as you do it, your master will never abandon you like this." ”

As soon as she said this, Shen Yigong's eyes lit up in an instant.

"You've got to think it through. There is no turning back when you set foot on this road. ”

"I think clearly. I'm not going to turn back. ”

"That's good." You Yiman stood up and called the girl who had led Shen Yigong in before, "Ziyue, take this little gentleman down to wash, and then send him to the north room on the fourth floor." ”

"Yes, Mom."

You Yiman waved his hand at Shen Yigong: "You obediently follow that sister, she will tell you what to do and say anything." As long as you do what you do, your master's business will be nothing. ”

Shen Yigong nodded vigorously, very grateful: "Thank you, aunt!" I don't know what I would do without you today. ”

"Thank me for what? That's your own way. Let's go upstairs. Time waits for no one. ”

You Yiman saw the room, sat back on the chaise longue with a smile to himself, hummed a song in his mouth, laughed out loud at the end, and said, "Tonight is interesting." ”
