Chapter 17: Shelter
Hearing that Xia Yingxi agreed to his request, Zhang Huansheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and his hanging heart was relaxed.
His body has become like a drooping child, and it is impossible for him to cultivate the Dragon Elephant Root Sutra in a short period of time, and he will not be able to stand on his own and earn a living in this vast world, but he is afraid that he will have to lie dormant and cultivate in this Tzu Chi Hall for a long time.
If you don't live alone to practice well, Zhang Huansheng is absolutely unwilling to offend him for no reason by taking advantage of the newly departed Zhong Wuli Yuwei.
Fortunately, listening to Na Sitang's tone, he is just a pedantic person, but he is not stingy, and he should not make things difficult for no reason in the future.
Respectfully receiving the instructions of the Si Tang, the errand officer wearing a half-worn gray robe and a long sharp-beaked monkey cheek carried Zhang Huansheng's burden and led him out of the official room.
The sun was shining outside the house, and there was a faint commotion in the distance, and the errand man walked slowly up the stone path in the middle of the Tzu Chi Hall with the voice of the person on his back, walked forward more than a dozen steps, quietly looked around, and saw that there was no one in the air, and suddenly said: "Zhang family boy, Captain Zhong is so helpful for you, are you very close to him?" ”
"Naturally, it's very close," Zhang Huansheng was slightly stunned, and said with a blank look: "Although I can't remember what happened before, I know that Uncle Zhong treated me very well, bought me new clothes, and took me to eat delicious food."
By the way, he also led me to meet an old uncle, and asked me to call him master, and he asked Uncle Zhong to send me here. ”
"Old uncle, master," the officer's eyes lit up, and he asked in a rather excited voice, "That person is not the last name." ”
"It's the last surname, how do you know, uncle, you also know that old man." Zhang Huansheng asked with a look of surprise.
The errand officer saw that Zhang was only a few years old, so he naturally wouldn't suspect him of lying, and quietly thought of surprise when he heard this: "That Captain Zhong's words are true, this kid is really hooking up with General Mo, that's a big man who can make Yinhai County sway three times by stomping his feet!" He replied with a stammer: "How can I have that kind of blessing."
Hehe, Zhang Jiaxiao, little boy, you are not used to living with people, so what are the other requirements, do you love to live in a sunny house, or less, do you love shade, or do you like to live dry? ”
In fact, as long as anyone who knows a little bit about human ethics knows that if Zhang Huansheng really has a lot of weight in the hearts of Zhong Wuli and Mo Ye, it is impossible for him to be sent to Tzu Chi Hall.
Zhong Wuli is just down, the power of the end of the leaf, there is not a little orphan there.
But there is a kind of person in the world who is born a slave, and he loves to slip around and pat horses in his bones, as long as someone has a little relationship with Shangguan and the powerful, he knows that it is not very useful to him, and he is used to feeling happy when he meets him.
Zhang Huansheng heard the sudden tone and title of this errand officer, and guessed that he was this kind of character, pretending to be innocent, and asked honestly and unceremoniously: "I am born to be quiet, I like to stay alone, the better the place to live, the better the better, and I am most satisfied with living in the corner of the yard." ”
"You have such a temperament, but you are also elegant," the officer was stunned when he heard this, and said: "At a young age, he is so quiet and inactive, and he still lives in the corner of the courtyard, where it is very cold at night, and sometimes there are grass snakes running into the house, although it is not poisonous but very penetrating." ”
"I'm not afraid of that, I just like to live in secluded places." Zhang Huansheng stubbornly insisted.
"In that case, then I'll take you to see it." Hearing this, the messenger could only reply helplessly, and led Zhang Huansheng to the door of a washer in the southwest corner of the Tzu Chi Hall.
The building was not large, just over a foot long, seven or eight feet wide, and it was full of green bricks, and the plastered walls were mottled, and there were only two tattered wooden beds, a wooden table, and not even a spare chair.
Others see this place as shabby and hard, but Zhang Huansheng loves its seclusion, and where is there a comfortable place to live in Tzu Chi Hall.
After just two glances, he walked in, jumped on the wooden bed on the west side of the bed that was still intact and acceptable, shook his feet, and said with a smile: "This is it." ”
Although Zhang Huansheng has always deliberately shown his innocence, the errand still feels more and more that he is not like an ordinary child, but he can't describe it, so he has to say: "Little boy, you really don't look like an ordinary child, really, really assertive."
This tile house faces the wall on both sides, and there is no sunlight all day long, and most of the houses on the other two sides are lonely and old, and they are scary to look at, are you really not afraid? ”
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'll choose here, and ask my uncle to do it." Zhang Huansheng said with a grin.
"In that case, I will bring you a new bed from the warehouse, and the brazier, futon, and bucket will be prepared as new, and the door will be repaired for you." Hearing him say this, the messenger reluctantly agreed, and then Zhang Luo gathered some men to clean up the Nawasher, and although it was completely new, it also had a little appearance.
Seeing his hard work, Zhang Huansheng couldn't help but think in his heart: "Although this errand officer likes flattery, he is not the kind of character who only opens his mouth and is unwilling to contribute, he is still a poor man in charge, but it is very useful." He deliberately asked: "It's really hard work Uncle today, I don't know what your name is, uncle."
In the future, if Uncle Zhong asks, who treats me the best, I can answer. ”
When the officer heard this, he only felt that his bones were lighter, and his exhaustion turned into nothing, and he said with a smile: "What's this, hehe, the little boy really understands etiquette."
My surname is Yan, my name is Yungao, I am a local person in Nanyang Prefecture, although I only serve as an errand officer in this Tzu Chi Hall, but I also practiced martial arts when I was young, and I usually have five or six big men who are not close to me..."
Hearing that he couldn't wait to report the names, experiences, and strengths of the eight generations of his ancestors, Zhang Huansheng secretly laughed in his heart, and when Yan Yungao finished his words, he nodded again and again: "I have written it down." ”
"Just write it down, just write it down." Yan Yungao said with a smile on his face when he heard this: "By the way, little boy, our Tzu Chi Hall gets up every morning, first goes to the two halls below the official room to eat, and then the gentleman invited by the government teaches everyone to read and write.
Eat lunch at noon, after eating, you children have to go to the backyard on the fine sand to practice with martial arts, and then have dinner at the time of unitary, there are people ringing the bell to tell the time at every hour in the county, we can also hear this, just pay attention to it. ”
"That's the case, no wonder we didn't see anyone walking just now, it turned out that we all went to the fine sand in the backyard," Zhang Huansheng smiled and replied casually: "I know, uncle." ”
