Chapter 2 Jokes

In the blink of an eye, a month passed, and Mrs. Xiao inquired in the neighboring village for many days, but there was no result, so she began to gradually save other thoughts, so the young man lived here, and the old man Xiao saw that he was well-behaved and obedient, and he also readily agreed.

"Zheng'er, did you chop firewood early in the morning?" As soon as Old Man Xiao walked out of the door, he saw a young man carrying a bundle of firewood just walking in from outside the door.

This person is the previous amnesiac teenager, because he wants to stay here to find his family, but he can't remember what his name is, Old Man Xiao thought in his heart that the single name took a straight character, so the young man was called Xiao Zheng.

Xiao Zheng nodded and said, "Yes, I got up early today and wanted to go up the mountain to chop some firewood, is grandpa up", Old Man Xiao smiled: "Yes, I can't sleep when I'm older."

Xiao Zheng said: "Grandpa, then I'll go put firewood", seeing Xiao Yezi nodded and walked into the firewood room.

"Hey, old man," Mrs. Xiao came out of the kitchen and said softly: "This child is really sensible, how good it would be if it was really a family"

Old Man Xiao stroked his beard and said: "This child's background is a mystery, if there is a fate, he can also enter the Qinghe Temple......", Mrs. Xiao glared at him and said: "You give me less of this idea, besides, the Qinghe Temple only accepts disciples who are about twelve or thirteen years old every year, I think Zheng'er is almost seventeen years old, how can I still go in."

Old Man Xiao said: "I'm not that kind of person, I just want such a sensible child to have the opportunity to go to Xianguan to see the world, can you learn the immortal law in the two words, if you can't find his family, will you let him chop firewood and farm for the rest of his life?"

Mrs. Xiao glanced at the firewood room and said, "Okay, then let's ask, if he wants, then go."

Xiao Zheng put down a large bundle of firewood from his back, and then neatly stacked the unused firewood together.

In fact, he went to the mountain earlier than Old Man Xiao thought, when the stars were still hanging in the sky, so he took a firewood knife and went up the mountain.

When he got to the mountain, he found a relatively stable stone and sat there and stared at the sky, until the first rays of sunlight appeared on the distant horizon, gently caressing the earth and shining on the dew of the grass and trees, and showing infinite vitality.

Xiao Zheng's eyes slowly retracted from the sky, looked at the sun, watched the sun rise slowly, and the sunlight shone on his eyes, showing a faint golden light.

Although it is only a cloth dress, it looks extremely noble.

Xiao Zheng retracted his gaze and picked up the firewood knife next to him to chop wood, at first it may be the first time to chop wood, so it seems very jerky so it is relatively slow, but gradually as if he has found a trick, the speed of chopping wood is getting faster and faster.

The sound of the knife cutting through the air sounded in his hand, and if anyone watched Xiao Zheng chopping wood at the scene, they would be surprised: the knife seemed to merge into one in his hand, and there was almost an afterimage in his hand.

In this way, Xiao Zheng quickly finished cutting a large bundle of firewood and carried it down the mountain.

After breakfast, Xiao Zheng went out and followed Old Man Xiao to take care of the farmland. "Hey, Old Xiao, this is the young man you brought back?" met an acquaintance head-on, and Old Man Xiao stopped to talk to him.

"I heard that, Qingheguan is going to start recruiting disciples again, and the little six of the Pang family are going to participate" Old man Xiao was surprised: "Is the little six also old, it's really ...... fast", the person who came said: "Yes, I heard that Qingheguan has lowered the enrollment standard this year, and if you are about eleven years old, you can also go if you have good roots."

Old man Xiao said: "Then this time the selection is lively", "Who said no, everything in the next village that matches the age is ready to try their luck, and Huang Er, the head of the village who always couldn't get along with you before, is also ready to let his children try",

This time, Old Man Xiao was really a little surprised and said: "Isn't that kid of Huang Er only ten years old, can you go here?", the person who came suddenly whispered: "Huang Er doesn't know where to get a baby to give to the main exam, if you enter, then he will laugh at you again"

Old Man Xiao stopped talking, and hurriedly said goodbye and left.

Xiao Zheng saw the sorrow on Old Man Xiao's face and asked, "Does Grandpa have something on his mind?" Old Man Xiao sighed and didn't hide it: "Huang Er is a very idle person, and he usually does a lot of things like stealing chickens and touching dogs, but he has a good son, don't look at it, he is only ten years old, but he looks smart and cute, and he is very likable......"

Xiao Zheng listened and gradually understood Old Man Xiao's worries, usually Old Man Xiao had some holidays with Huang Er, if his child also entered the Qinghe Temple, he would trumpet how talented his child was, only ten years old, he was taken away by those immortals to cultivate.

This made Old Man Xiao unable to raise his head in front of him, and as for sending treasures, I don't know if it's true or groundless, so it can't be used as a reason, maybe he will be bitten back.

Xiao Zhengdao: "Cultivation is not just about getting started, this still depends on the hard work of the day after tomorrow, your grandson is more diligent than him and liked by the teachers and superiors in the view, so don't you also have more face?"

Old Man Xiao smiled: "That's right, cultivation depends on a person, I'm too old to fight with Huang Er for anything, my only wish is that my grandson can fight for me in the view."

Xiao Zheng also laughed and said, "It will definitely be!", Old Man Xiao paused for a while and said casually: "Do you want to try it too?"

Xiao Zheng felt that he had misheard and asked, "What?", Old Man Xiao repeated: "Do you want to go to Qinghe Temple to try your luck, if you can go in, it is better than farming and cutting firewood here"

Xiao Zheng shook his head and said: "I'm already over my age, I'm afraid that I won't even have a chance to try, and I will be blasted out by others as soon as I enter", after speaking, the two looked at each other and smiled, Old Man Xiao laughed enough and said: "You kid...... How could someone else do such a thing?"

Xiao Zhengdao: "Yes, yes, that kid won't measure himself, mix in and see if it's okay, if it's okay, ask if there is a lack of miscellaneous ...... in the view" The two walked with laughter.

By the time they returned from their farm work, it was already noon, and the two of them walked home together.

Old Man Xiao said: "I really didn't expect you to do this"

Xiao Zheng smiled: "It's just a little", as soon as one foot stepped into the courtyard, there was a shout from inside:

"Old man, old man, look who's coming!"
