Greenbeard closed his eyes and resigned himself to death, but if Greenbeard had died here, we wouldn't have seen him today. If you want to say that this Greenbeard's life should not be killed, it happened that he pounced on the male corpse, but instead of hitting Greenbeard, his own hands were deeply inserted into the tree, and he couldn't move anymore. Seeing this, Greenbeard, who was already disheartened, rolled to the side, got up and ran a few steps, for fear that the male corpse would pull his hands out of the tree and pounce again.

Greenbeard stood in the distance and waited for a long time, but there was no movement from the male corpse. Greenbeard dared to take a closer look, only to see that the corpse of the male corpse had dissipated for some reason, and his face was not as full as it had been at the beginning, the flesh on his entire face had shrunk to the bones, his nose was flattened, his eyes were sunken, and he was alive with a human skeleton specimen in clothes. Seeing that the danger had disappeared, Greenbeard once again started the idea of Chaozhu on the male corpse, this time it was more convenient, and in two or three clicks, he untied Chaozhu, put it in his pocket, cleaned up the scattered tools, and hurried home regardless of the male corpse.

The reason why Greenbeard was in a hurry to go home was because the missing piece of flesh on his shoulder hurt badly. When he went home, he smeared some hemostatic medicine on the wound, wrapped his shoulders with gauze, and fell asleep with pain.

When I woke up the next morning and went out, I heard someone say that there was a male corpse on the west grave, which was not only dug out of the tomb, but also tied to a tree, and it seemed that it was a great official of the Qing Dynasty, which was really retribution. Greenbeard smiled when he heard this, thinking that no one knew what had happened last night, so he could only speculate. Rumor of this aside, by the next night, Greenbeard's shoulder had not only not improved, but had become more painful, and half of his body felt like being pricked by needles, and Greenbeard had not fallen asleep all night in pain, but the next morning, the pain had gradually dissipated, and Greenbeard was able to fall asleep.

After a few days of repeating this, Greenbeard's whole body became haggard, and the original Guanzhong man, who was five big and three thick, was already as weak as a little girl, and the pain in his shoulder was getting worse day by day, even during the day. Greenbeard knew that he was on the road this time, so he quickly packed up his fineness, including the string of morning beads, and rushed to the hospital in the city, and after a month of treatment, the doctor also had no way to deal with this matter, saying that he had never seen such a strange thing, and suggested that Greenbeard transfer to a larger hospital. In order to cure the disease on his shoulder, Greenbeard had spent all his money, and sold a few treasures brought out of the tomb, but the string of pearls was not willing to sell.

Greenbeard, who finally spent all his money, could no longer afford the expensive medicine and was kicked out of the hospital. Greenbeard, who was walking alone on the street, was disheartened and didn't know where to go, and it happened to be a temple fair in the city, and Greenbeard unintentionally walked into the crowd rushing to the temple.

The temple fairs in the city were very lively, there were jugglers, candy blowers, bread sellers, and clothes sellers, but none of these could arouse Greenbeard's interest, he had no money and no heart to care about them. Finally, the aimless Greenbeard stopped in front of a fortune-telling stall, the stall owner was an old man, the white goatee was more than half a foot long, the hair and beard were all white, he shook a puff fan in his hand, he was calm, his eyes were closed, and he sat behind the wooden table, there were several sticks on the wooden table, and a white cloth was simply written with a brush to tell fortunes. At this time, Greenbeard had already begun to doubt life, thinking that idleness is idle, it is better to test my fate in the future, even if it is not accurate, it is just a matter of fun.

Thinking of this, Greenbeard took two steps to the fortune-telling stall, and then thought about it, the fortune-telling still has to pay, where do he have the money to pay now, thinking that he was about to leave, but the old man who hung the stall said to himself: "This bite is not light." ”

Greenbeard turned his head when he heard this, and the old man's words just now seemed to be speaking to Greenbeard, and it was like talking to himself. Greenbeard simply turned around, walked to the table and sat down face to face with the old man, and said, "This immortal, what do you mean when you just said that the bite was not light?" ”

The old man who had been closing his eyes slowly opened his eyes and glanced at Greenbeard, then closed his eyes and said, "Immortals don't dare to call me, people call me Cheng Banxian." As for the bite, I should ask you about it. ”

Greenbeard smiled slyly, "If I know what you're asking for, one of us is a fortune teller, not me." Greenbeard's words were slightly sarcastic, and he more or less didn't take Cheng Banxian seriously.

Unexpectedly, the old man was not angry, but on the contrary, he smiled and said, "Doesn't your shoulder hurt a lot?" ”

Greenbeard was stunned for a moment, but then he thought about it, this kind of thing can be seen from his usual activities, thinking that this old man is probably still in trouble, "It's right that my shoulder hurts, I'm rheumatism, you count your fate, don't see any disease." With that, Greenbeard stood up and was about to leave.

The old man's eyes suddenly widened, and he shouted: "Bold thief, it's not a dog or a cat that bites you, but something that looks like a person or a non-human." ”

As soon as the old man said this, it seemed to hit the pain in Greenbeard's heart, the whole person trembled, and then collapsed on the chair again, raised his head to look at the old man, and turned over and knelt in front of the fortune-telling booth, calling the gods for help.

The old man hurriedly stepped forward to help Greenbeard, let him sit on a chair, and whispered, "You are poisoned by wet corpses, and the poison is already very deep." ”

"Then I'm dying." Greenbeard said dejectedly.

"No, it's okay to keep your life, but you're going to listen to me for the next month." The old man said.

"Okay, as long as I can save a small life, I have to repay you even if I am a cow and a horse." Greenbeard nodded repeatedly.

The old man stood up and cleaned up his stall, took Greenbeard with him, and came to the mountains and forests in the south of the city, and the two earthen houses in the mountains and forests were the residences of this half-immortal. The earthen house is in disrepair, there are several places on the roof where you can see the outside sunshine, as soon as it rains, the house becomes a water curtain hole, there is a clay kang in the room on the left, there is an old table of eight immortals, a red lacquered lying cabinet, a corner of the house on the right is full of firewood, there is a stove, and the whole house is blackened with smoke. Although Blackbeard is a single, he lives a fairly relaxed life with his "craftsmanship", and his family lives in a big tiled house, so when he comes to this environment, he can't help but feel a little unhappy. Although Blackbeard was slightly unhappy in his heart, he didn't show it at all.

"Master, sit down, I'll boil your saliva." Greenbeard smiled and carried the old man to the table of the Eight Immortals, and after a while, he changed his mind and called Master.

Cheng Banxian nodded and said, "Go ahead, a little bit." ”

Greenbeard didn't dare to slack off, went to the outhouse and added half a pot of water, hula the bellows, boiled the water in the middle of the night, found a bowl and served it to Cheng Banxian, "Just boiled, don't burn your master." Greenbeard said.

Cheng Banxian nodded, didn't drink water, but opened the lying cabinet next to him, took out a knife and soaked it in the water. Just when Greenbeard was puzzled, Cheng Banxian motioned for him to take off his shirt and sit down.

Greenbeard hesitated and took off his shirt, sat down, and saw that the piece of flesh missing from his shoulder was already black, obviously the corpse poison had invaded his muscles at the beginning, thanks to Greenbeard's forced cutting off a piece, otherwise the corpse poison would have been more retained, and Greenbeard's condition would have been worse. Cheng Banxian took out the knife from the boiling water, the overall shape of this knife is no different from other knives, but at the position of the tip of the knife, it rolled up a big bend, and he didn't ask Greenbeard, Cheng Banxian poked into Greenbeard's shoulder with a knife, and with a turn and a slash, a piece of blackened rotten flesh was slashed off, Greenbeard snorted and held back, if someone else had already died of pain. Then the old man took out a handful of glutinous rice from his pocket, covered it around the wound on Greenbeard's shoulder, and wrapped it tightly with a cloth.

As soon as the glutinous rice was covered, Greenbeard suddenly felt a relief on his shoulders, mainly because this glutinous rice was used to absorb corpse poison. Greenbeard knelt on the ground and thanked him repeatedly, Cheng Banxian waved his hand, "I saved your life because I saw that you were pitiful, but in the next month, you have to continue to cooperate with me, otherwise your life will still be difficult to save." The cheap greenbeard knew how powerful Old Man Cheng was, and said yes again and again.

In the following days, Cheng Banxian changed the glutinous rice at the wound of Greenbeard every day, but the color of the glutinous rice was replaced, from the black at the beginning, to the slightly black later, which shows that the corpse poison at the wound is getting less and less.

More than 20 days have passed like this, and it seems that it will be a month, and Greenbeard's body has improved a lot, and his mood has also improved. On this day, Cheng Banxian went out to catch the market again, and Greenbeard was wandering around the yard alone, moving his muscles and bones. Idle to do, Greenbeard suddenly thought of the hole in the roof, the old man is old and has difficulty moving, why don't he take advantage of Cheng Banxian's absence to repair the roof, which can be regarded as a little expression. Just do it, Greenbeard found hay mixed with soil to work a pile of yellow mud, with a broken pocket pocket pocket a bag of mud, along the broken ladder under the eaves to climb up, this ladder wind and rain I don't know how many years, a step on it creaky and creaking, Greenbeard carefully climbed to the roof, poured the yellow mud on a hole, wiped it with a wooden board, and continued to get the second pocket mud on the roof, click, the rotten wooden ladder finally broke, Greenbeard was thrown to the ground, sigh for a long time to get up.

Losing the wooden ladder, Greenbeard wondered how to get up to the roof, and after thinking about it, Greenbeard aimed at a large willow tree next to the house, and one of the branches of the large willow tree stretched right on the roof. Greenbeard picked up the yellow mud, climbed up the big willow tree in twos and threes, and slowly moved along the branches to the roof. Just as he was about to put the yellow mud down, he suddenly found that the holes in the roof actually formed the shape of a Big Dipper, and each hole was very regular, no matter how you look at it, it looks like someone deliberately dug it. With the keen sense of a tomb robber, Greenbeard flew down the willow tree, ran into the back room, and leaked the light on the ground through the hole in the roof, and quickly determined the location of the "North Star".

Who is Greenbeard? Tomb robber, and is a tomb robber who is not in the industry, he immediately found a shovel, dug down more than half a meter, a stone box appeared in front of him, Greenbeard was overjoyed, opened to see, it was a group of Sanqing jade statues. When Greenbeard was proud, Cheng Banxian, who went out to catch the market, happened to return home, and when he saw Greenbeard who dug out the statue of Sanqing, he couldn't help but be furious and scolded Greenbeard for not being able to change eating.

At this time, Greenbeard is no longer the Greenbeard of more than half a month ago, in order to occupy the statue of Sanqing, Greenbeard simply did not do two things, and slapped a spade on Cheng Banxian's head, Cheng Banxian never imagined that he personally staged a story of a farmer and a snake, and before he died, he grabbed Greenbeard's collar and told him that there would be retribution.

Greenbeard disagreed, picked up Sanqing and went back to his home, but what he didn't expect was that in the few days after returning home, maybe because the treatment of corpse poison had not been completed, maybe it was really retribution as Cheng Banxian said, Greenbeard's beard changed from the original black to green, and it never changed again, and the insiders gave him a nickname - Greenbeard.
