readx;?“ Please don't be afraid, although I am the great butler Fugen, I will never do anything to hurt you again. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" This ugly man saw Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu's frightened appearance, and hurriedly comforted, "I understand your feelings, and I empathize with what happened to you in the past, why don't I suffer and suffer all the punishment like you!"

Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu came to this strange and dilapidated small courtyard, which was originally a matter for the monk of the second zhang to find out his head, but now he met a man who looked like a ghost, after a conversation, the fear in his heart had just been alleviated, who would have thought that this ugly man turned out to be the old housekeeper Fugen, who was drunk, which made them suspicious.

"The voice is very similar, but your appearance is ---" Qiao Xiaojing looked at the ugly middle-aged man timidly.

"Of course you are familiar with my voice, I am Fugen, the old butler Fugen. The middle-aged man said, "Actually, the Fugen you usually see is the Fugen wearing a mask, but what you see now is the real Fugen." ”

"Then why are you ---" Qiao Xiaojing was full of doubts, and Jade also squeezed over.

"It's all thanks to the old woman in Xiaomulou, so I have the ugly appearance of being a person and a ghost. Fugen sighed and paused slightly, as if he was in a heavy mood.

Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu looked at each other, and their four eyes fell on the man in front of them again.

"I used to have a good home," said the middle-aged man, "and life was easy and leisurely, but it was this hateful woman who changed everything and the course of my life." ”

"In more detail, what happened back then?" Jade seemed interested in what happened to the middle-aged man.

"I was a young baby at the time," says Fogen, "and I fled with my family, who died on the way, and I eventually fled here, where I was adopted by a large family and became the pillar of the family." The Xinhai Revolution broke out and overthrew Lafayette and the short-lived emperor Puyi, and many people in the palace fled in all directions, including a palace maid. ”

"Is that palace maid the evil lady of Xiaomulou later?" Cuiyu interjected.

"Not bad!" said Fugen, "this palace maid escaped from the Qing Palace, and when she came here, she fell in love with my lord's house, which was the drunken house where you all lived later, and she hired a group of people with the valuable treasures stolen from the palace, coerced and lured, and finally, mutilated this family. ”

"Yes, yes," Qiao Xiaojing said lightly, "I have heard that wicked woman mention the palace in Xiaomulou. ”

"All the family died," went on to Fogen, "and none of them were spared, because I lived in a backyard with my subordinates, but I was badly burned by the fire, and this is how it ended." ”

"It's miserable!" Jade couldn't help but sigh.

"And what happened later?" Qiao Xiaojing frowned, looked directly at Fugen, and asked puzzledly, "How did you become a drunken housekeeper?"

"I," Fugen said after taking a deep breath and thinking about it for a while, "this family has a grace for me to reinvent, I can't just watch them being murdered and do nothing, I changed my face and disguised myself, and finally mixed into the drunken house, always looking for an opportunity to avenge the family who adopted me, but I still haven't avenged them." ”

"I've wronged you for so many years!" Jade sympathized with Fugen's plight.

"It doesn't matter if I'm wronged," said Fugen, "at least I'm still alive, but they, they're all the best and kindest people in the world, but they were brutally killed by this wicked woman, and the young master of my family was less than a year old at the time, and he could only hold a grudge against the Nine Springs." ”

As soon as the words fell, Fugen's tears flowed, moving Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu.

"I made up my mind from that moment," said Fogen, "that I had to kill that wicked woman even if I was crushed to pieces, and avenge my old family's family, which is why I have been in that place for so many years." ”

"It's rare for the old butler to have such a heart," Cui Yu said, "I believe that your old boss will definitely smile at Jiuquan if he knows about it." However, I still have a question, there was a fire that night, and a lot of people died, how did you know that we were still alive, and how did you find us?"

"I was the one who set the fire that night. Fugen smiled proudly, he smiled, "I was very moved when I learned that Qiao Xiaojing didn't want you to be taken away by those two barbarians in the Western Regions for you, regardless of her own life, and I thought at the time, if we can join forces, I believe we must have a way to get rid of that evil woman, so I set fire to it in the middle of the night." ”

"On the one hand, let you take advantage of the chaos to escape," Fugen coughed twice, and then continued, "on the other hand, burn to death all those who are intoxicated with no humanity and no conscience, so as to weaken the power of the wicked woman." I'm not sure you've managed to escape, but I'm just hoping that you'll survive, and God will find you in the crowd next to the ruins. ”

"We didn't expect that. Qiao Xiaojing shook her head.

"I saw you then," said Fogen, "to tell you the truth, I was glad and scared that you were alive, and that you were standing in the midst of the crowd, in full view, that if the wicked lady of the little wooden building found out, you would fall into the fire pit again, and fall into endless torment......

"Coincidentally," Jadeite laughed, "we weren't captured by that wicked woman, but you saved us." ”

"Yes," Fugen sighed, "this is called the Jiren of their own nature, and now that they are safe, you will no longer have to live those days of fear and heart-pounding! ”

"The next thing," Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu said in unison, "What else is going on?"

"Revenge?" Fugen stood up, looked down at Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu, and said excitedly, "That evil woman in Xiaomulou has done so many unconscionable and heinous things, and you have all experienced all kinds of capital punishment from her, cruel injury, merciless torture, ruthlessness, and unspeakable pain, don't you hate her, don't you want to take revenge?"

Qiao Xiaojing was stunned and speechless.

Cuiyu glanced at Qiao Xiaojing, sighed, and was speechless.

"You guys have a good rest first," said Fugen, "for the time being, there is no hurry to take revenge, we have time now, I believe that it should not be difficult to concentrate the wisdom of all of us and kill that evil woman." ”

When Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu heard this, their faces suddenly turned pale, their purple lips were slightly open like frozen pig intestines, their eyes were full of despair, helplessness, sorrow and other miserable expressions after excessive panic, and their bodies were like electric shocks, convulsing constantly, and their upper and lower teeth involuntarily hit together, making a "da-da" sound.

The kitchen, which was originally a little dim, became silent in an instant, as silent as death, the air seemed to be suffocated, it was about to freeze, and time seemed to be like an invisible ice cellar, locking Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu in it.

They felt like their blood was about to freeze, and their hearts seemed to stop beating.

"We'll think about it seriously," Jade felt that this matter was not trivial, and she had to think about it in the long run, and she didn't know if what Fugen said was true or false, so she said, "You all know what happened to us, can you tell me what happened to you?"

"Okay!" Fugen put away the dishes and chopsticks, scrubbed the table, sat down on the threshold, lit a bag of cigarettes, took two puffs, and began to tell his unfortunate story, he said, "I was originally from the Central Plains, due to natural and man-made disasters for many years, life was miserable, so I had no choice but to leave my hometown with my family and fellow villagers, and embarked on a difficult road to escape from the famine......"

The army fleeing from the famine was bustling, like a migration of people, in front, without seeing the head, behind, and with no end in sight, rushing forward like a tide, and the road was unimaginably miserable, and people who died of hunger could be seen everywhere......

Along the way, there was less and less to eat, and the army of escapees began to eat tree bark, grass roots, and mice, but the people behind could not even find these things, and in desperation, they began to eat the dead, struggling to survive.

"Fortunately in the midst of misfortune," sighed Fogen, "I am young, and my family always takes care of me, but I have not been reduced to the point of eating the dead." ”

"I'm about to enter the big city," went on to say Fogen, "but my family starved to death, and I was so heartbroken that I wanted to die with them, and the townsfolk saw that I was still alive and brought me here......"

It took a long time for Fogen to calm down in tears, and then he said: "When I entered the city, the refugees spread in all directions like a flood that burst its banks, and many places were affected, and of course I was also affected. ”

Anxious and hungry, Fugen has lost the vitality of his youth, just like an old man, his legs are weak, and he walks on a crooked stick, not knowing where to go.

Sunrise and sunset, sunset and sunrise, I don't know how many days passed, on a cloudy night, the night was as dark as if coated with a thick layer of ink, and Fugen, who had not dripped, walked desperately, and finally fainted on the road.

When Fogen woke up again, it was three days later. As he lay in an elegantly furnished cabin, the rolling thunder deafening and the huge raindrops pounding incessantly against the walls of the cabin, Fogen sat up with great difficulty, looking at the room he was in, full of doubt.

Suddenly, the door opened, and in came a young girl with a decoction, she was frightened by Fugen who sat up, and was stunned for a moment, and then shouted excitedly: "Daddy, daddy, he's awake, he's awake......"

"I've been in a coma for three days, and if you don't wake up, I'm going to find someone to bury you when the weather clears. A middle-sized, kind-looking elder walked in with a shovel in his hand.

It was this elder who met Fugen who fainted on the night when Fugen fainted, because he was late for someone else's delivery, and pulled him home and saved Fugen's life.

After drinking the decoction brought by the young lady, Fugen wiped his mouth with his hand, and then knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, just to thank the elderly family for saving their lives. The old man helped Fugen up, and the two sat down and talked about what happened to Fugen.

Fugen told what had happened, and the old man lamented as he listened, and the young lady who stood on the side bit her lip tightly, and before Fugen could finish speaking, the kind young lady could no longer cry.
