Lin Qi, Lin Chong is ninety-three years old, the reason why he is called Lin Chongjiu is because the Great Yuan Dynasty forbade Han people to give names except for officials and people with meritorious names, and the surname can only be replaced by numbers...... Fifteen, sixteen...... Such a name, perhaps in this way, can be convenient for those officials of the Great Yuan Dynasty who have no culture to call all the names of the people.

Lao Wang's full name is Wang Eighteen, and his name Chongjiu is the double that took his name, which also means that Lin Qi should not forget his roots, and there is a layer of cheap names that are easy to feed, Lin Qi, the atmosphere of the name, ten miles and eight villages have such a name for this child, which is too eye-catching, not to mention that the government does not let it be called, so it takes a heavy nine, which is all a nickname. The local officials don't care so much, as long as the child's name is a number, as for how to come up with it, I really don't have that interest in knowing.

Thirteen years, the outside may be earth-shaking changes, but in this Huaishu Village, there is still no change, time seems to stop here, thirteen years ago was like this, thirteen years later it should still be like this, the difference is that Lin Qi has grown up.

This child has been different from other children since he was a child, first of all, he is very white, not like other children in the village who look dirty, he is also not well dressed, and he does not eat strongly, but he has a white and clean face, and he looks clean without washing his face for a month

Secondly, smart, Li's literacy and hyphenation, don't want Lin Qi to not even know a word for the rest of his life, he taught him to read at the age of three, although he can't afford to buy pen and paper, he can only draw words on the sand, but Lin Qi can learn it, and he will be fine for a while, which makes Li sigh for a long time, if his son was born in the previous dynasty, with such intelligence, and then there is a master to teach, it is absolutely not a problem to take the Jinshi exam.

The child grew up day by day, no disease and no disaster, the black fox did not come to make trouble, Lin Laoshi and Li's heart gradually let go, the two of them thanked the old king for his kindness, put a spiritual position at home, and took Lin Qi to kowtow and burn incense on the fifteenth day of the new year, and told him that this was his father-in-law, for him to be gone, and when he grew up, he had to have a surname Wang...... Every time he said it, every time he kowtowed, Lin Qi was very puzzled, and he didn't know where this stepfather came from, but when he asked, his parents sighed, and no one hid it from him.

What made him even more strange was that every time he kowtowed to his father-in-law, he had to follow his parents to burn three incense sticks under the locust tree in the yard, and he also had to kowtow, so the fifteenth day of the first month became Lin Qi's favorite child. Speaking of the locust tree in the yard, since Lin Qi was born, a big wood tumor has grown under the root of the tree, and it has grown bigger and bigger, and now it is almost half the thickness of the locust tree.

If it is someone else's child, he can help his parents to do some work in the field at the age of seven or eight, but although the Lin family is very poor, but Li and Lin honestly feel sorry for the child, and never let him go to the ground, Lin Qi wanders in the village every time, others are smart, and let the rangers go, and become the head of the children in the village.

Lin Qi listened but didn't think so, thinking that the eldest husband was born between heaven and earth, and he should be a man who wants to make a contribution, where these village women and fools know, this child has strange ideas, but it is no wonder that he is not surprised, two years ago, he exchanged two catties of millet from the hand of a man who asked for food for a broken Tang legend book, which tells the legend of the bearded guest, Nie Yinniang and the like, Lin Qi was shocked when he saw it, and he couldn't extricate himself from it, and he just felt that this was what he should do.

Although he was slapped twice by Lin Laoshi for this, he didn't cry or make trouble, he just felt that the two catties of millet were really worth it.

Don't talk much, just say this, Lin Laoshi went to the neighboring village to help, and he hasn't gone home yet, Li made dinner and wanted his son to eat first, but Lin Qi said that he would wait for his father to come back and eat together, Li was quite pleased, and felt that the child was older and sensible, so he put the meal in the pot and went to help her husband and son sew clothes, but he didn't know that it would be dusk, Lin Qi leaned on the corner of the wall and looked at the yellowed book in his hand and was fascinated.

The Lin family is poor, and at night the oil lamp can not be lit, Lin Qi wants to take advantage of the sun has not yet set the afterglow to read the book again, so it is a small half a day, the sky gradually darkened, until he can no longer see the handwriting on the book, Lin Qi put down the book in his hand, but felt a little sleepy, leaning against the corner of the wall to doze.

In the confusion, a faint blue light in the distance came from far to near, and a woman in a yellow shirt was wrapped in the light, holding a delicate lantern in her hand, and leading a donkey with a red rope, walking slowly. The blue light emanated from this lantern, the girl was thirteen or fourteen years old, her figure was slender, her posture was graceful, her color was like spring dawn, and when she got close, her beautiful big eyes stared at Lin Qi non-stop.

Lin Qi also wondered, whose little lady is this, so beautiful? There are no such beautiful people in the village. Just as he wanted to ask, he saw the woman smile at him Yingying and said, "Little boy, my lord invites you to the banquet." ”

Lin Qi, who was called by this little boy, was all over Shutai, and asked with a smile: "Who is your master's surname?" Why did you invite me? ”

The woman in the yellow shirt saw Lin Qi's little adult-like posture, and couldn't help but smile and said: "My lord's surname is Jin, but he is a well-known person, I heard people say that the little boy is a righteous hero, he is a good man, I want to get acquainted, now the wine and food have been prepared, just wait for the little boy." ”

Lin Qi is half a child, likes to listen to some nice words, and likes to see some legends, he always feels that he is an extraordinary, but no one in this small village knows that he is a hero, and he can hear the girl in yellow shirt say this to herself, and she can still hold it there, so she hurriedly stood up and said: "Since you came to invite, the kid is not an illiterate person, so go, go ......."

The woman in the yellow shirt smiled, rode on the donkey, and motioned for Lin Qi to come up, Lin Qi didn't want anything else, jumped on the donkey, the woman whistled, the donkey four hooves rushed forward, Lin Qi was startled, and hugged the thin waist of the woman in front of her, and didn't dare to let go, only felt the aroma, the wind was whistling in her ears, and she didn't know how far she went, so she heard the woman say: "It's here." ”

Lin Qi was a little reluctant to get off the donkey, stood up straight and looked forward, and saw that this was a three-in, three-out courtyard, although it was not too big, but it was very rich and luxurious, he looked around, but saw that the four directions were hazy, and there was no one next to him, and he only felt that the place where this family was located was very high in the mountain wind.

In front of the door, there are servants running around, very lively, he is looking at it, out of it is an old man wearing a foreign uniform, his hair is white, fluttering like a fairy, with a smile on his face and said to him: "Little boy, you can make the old man wait." ”

Lin Qi didn't expect the master to come out, and hurriedly arched his hand and said: "The old man is polite, the boy Lin Qi and Lin Chongjiu are polite." ”

The old man laughed: "Why is it Lin Qi again, and Chongjiu again?" ”

Lin Qi's face turned red and said, "Lin Qi, the word weighs nine." ”

The old man smiled, didn't say much, took Lin Qi's hand and entered the mansion gate, entered the courtyard, and what appeared in front of him was a circular corridor, with a red pillar at every other section on the edge. The rockeries on both sides of the cloister, the clear pond, all kinds of flowers and plants compete for beauty, and the indescribable grace and wealth are indescribable. Speaking of which, Wang De's family in Huaishu Village is one of the largest families in ten miles and eight villages, but if you really want to compare with this old man's family, it is simply a chicken nest.

Entering the hall, there was a huge wooden table inside, full of all kinds of unknown dishes, Lin Qi was really hungry at this time, and after listening to the old man's persuasion, he ate unceremoniously and chewed, these meals are all vegetarian, but they are all colorful, fragrant, and delicious, the old man just ate two bites and watched him eat with interest.

Lin Qi's family was poor, and he had eaten such good things there, so he let go of his stomach and ate happily, until he couldn't eat anymore and then stopped talking to the old man.

The old man claimed to be surnamed Jin, saying that he moved here at home fifty years ago, and he often heard that Lin Qi was righteous and bold at a young age, so he invited him to see him, and it was indeed worthy of his name......

The old man is graceful and rich, and his demeanor and conversation are even more majestic and kind, Lin Qi has a good impression of him, but he also has some doubts, this ten miles and eight villages have never heard anyone say that there is such a rich family surnamed Jin, just wanted to ask more carefully, so he listened to the old man's words, and said to him: "Recently, there is resentment coming from the east, there must be a disease, there will be a great disaster, our whole family is going to move out of here, your Lin family has been worshiping my Jin family for thirteen years, please come to express your gratitude, and the second is to tell you that the wood ghost can take refuge below and help you escape the catastrophe......"

Lin Qi couldn't interrupt the old man's words when he heard it inexplicably, and he was listening carefully, when his father's voice suddenly sounded in his ears: "Chongjiu, why are you sleeping here, go back to the house, don't catch a cold." ”

Lin Qi opened his eyes, what is the rich house there, he was leaning against the corner and dozing, it turned out to be just a dream, it can be said to be a dream, but his stomach was very supportive.

He was strange in his heart, and he didn't say much, followed Lin Laoshi back home, barely ate a few mouthfuls of food, always felt that something was wrong, took out a piece of burning wood from the stove pit, used it as a torch, and walked around the yard, wandered to the bottom of the locust tree, and saw that there was a paper donkey cut out of white paper, picked it up and looked at it, the donkey neck was tied to a red thread, but it was not the donkey he had ridden, and then looked into the tree, and saw that there was a tree hole the size of a human head two zhang above, and a beetle saw him, moved a few times, and disappeared.
