After more than ten years of sloppy life, he almost believes that human nature is inherently evil.

Once, I only had three cents left, and I wanted to buy a bun to satisfy my stomach, but who knew that the hawker had to go up to six cents, and he was willing to starve himself to death.

For example, if Fang Cai lived under the eaves of other people's houses, he was beaten and bruised in the middle of the night, how can this kind of thing happen thousands of times?

In fact, he can speak and beg someone to be accepted as an apprentice, he just wants to try his luck, even if he fails, he will not be surprised, after all, no matter how bad it is, it will not be worse than now!

Situ Xiujian pretended to think about it: "Your experience is very sympathetic......

"I don't know if the owner will accept it? ……”

The inferiority complex made Leyu's head so low that he almost reached his chest.

"Alright! I'll make an exception and take you as an apprentice. ”

Situ Xiujian couldn't bear to look at it, and finally agreed.

Le Yuer is a flurry, and wants to verify: "The owner of the village, you ......"

"It's time to call me Master." Situ Xiujian replied with a smile.

"This ...... This ......"

Le Yu almost heard it wrong, but the word "Master" was so true, his body couldn't help trembling, his stomach was cold, and he knelt down unconsciously.

After many years of being helpless, but now that someone has taken him in, the passion for meeting his parents and finding a home finally makes him grateful.

Situ Xiujian comforted: "In the future, you must work hard, everything will be shared with the glory and disgrace of the dead man's cave, don't let me down on my concern for you." ”

"The juniors know ......" Le Yu actually stuttered.

"It's time to call an apprentice."

"Uh...... The apprentice knows ......"

Situ Xiujian nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "According to the custom, whoever enters this gate has to start with the most arduous sprinkling and sweeping the courtyard, are you willing?" ”

"Yes."

There is only a place to live, no matter how bitter it is, Leyu is willing.

"Very well, it's all up to your efforts." Situ Xiujian called to the family: "Lao Chen, take him to know everything about the Dead Man's Cave, and then assign him work." ”

"The little ones will do it themselves." Old Chen said.

Situ Xiujian said a few more words to Le Yu, and he had already left.

As soon as the owner was gone, everyone dispersed.

The gates of the Dead Man's Cave are finally back to their former tranquillity.

The wind was still blowing.

Floating flowers in August, floating flowers like flocculents, line extension sprinkled, the hibiscus swing embellished like intoxicated, like a dream.

Only the simmering aura of killing in the rivers and lakes is still thick and heavy on the hibiscus, and no breeze and fragrant rain can blow it......

On the eastern mountainside of Luoxia Mountain, there is a "smoke floating restaurant" with white walls and red tiles, but at this time, it is more ancient because of the entanglement of vines.

The famous day "smoke floating" is actually a perennial fog here.

When you enter it, it is like entering the clouds, or light smoke curling, or soaring and flying, like a fairyland on earth, the indescribable hazy beauty, especially makes people forget to return.

How can such a good situation be met by ordinary people?

Yes, it is the best place for Situ Xiujian to cultivate himself as a forbidden area.

Except for Situ Youjian and his only son, Situ Shanwu, and the three beloved disciples, anyone who mistakenly enters the forbidden area may get into trouble with death at any time.

At this moment, Situ Xiujian and his three apprentices, Wudrunk, Wuforgiving, Miao Ruoyan and his son Situ Shanwu, were gathering in the small restaurant to discuss important matters.

"Dad, aren't you afraid, Le Yu was sent by the Leng family to go undercover in our dead man's cave?" Situ Shanwu said in a tone of rejection.

Subconsciously, he habitually hung obliquely on the black blindfold of his left eye, and for the pain of losing his eyes, he couldn't wait to break the Leng family's head Leng Sin into 10,000 pieces to relieve the hatred in his heart.

Situ Xiujian sat upright on the sandalwood carved Taishi chair, and said in a slightly serious tone: "Shanwu, what's so terrible about this?"

Don't take the heart of a villain and spend the belly of a gentleman, of course I know, you can't wait to kill 10,000 pieces of cold sin! But, this doesn't seem to have anything to do with Leyu, right? ”

"However, his origin is unknown......"

"That can't be rejected indiscriminately." Situ Xiujian said: "His business, Dad will pay attention to it, don't keep bumping into him, don't forget, if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, and if you are right, you will only sacrifice more innocents in the end, you know?" ”

"Yes......" But seeing that his father has made up his mind, what else can Situ Shanwu say? I can only sulk and sulk, and I don't say anything more.

Only then did Situ Xiujian turn to the big apprentice and ask, "What's the news of the Leng family recently?" ”

Wu drunk said: "They don't seem to have made any moves, except for the cold sin who still buys a lot of pottery, there is no movement." ”

"Oh?" Situ Xiujian pondered for a while and said, "Have you ever thought about what is the purpose of being drunk and purchasing? ”

The second apprentice said without forgiveness: "Searching for pottery, owning the world's clay pottery, isn't this an interest that is almost obsessed with being drunk?" ”

"That's right, this is his interest, otherwise people in the rivers and lakes wouldn't call him a pottery idiot." Situ Xiujian said: "I just want you to think about whether he has ulterior motives, by buying pottery, but secretly carrying out some kind of conspiracy, and we have been kept in the dark." ”

"Dad, do you think the problem is with the large number of pottery?"

Situ Shanwu was enlightened.

Situ Xiujian nodded and said: "It's just a suspicion, at present, we have to make this speculation, so that we can take precautions, think about it, if he is really playing tricks, what tricks can he play with that batch of clay?" ”

For a while, the small restaurant was silent, and it had to be thought through to find a more appropriate answer.

"Master......"

With a gentle and soft woman's voice, the third apprentice Miao Ruoyan spoke.

She is always like a light smoke, with a hazy and mysterious beauty.

I saw her say slowly: "The disciple guesses that Leng Zui is searching for pottery, and secretly using the special substance of pottery or clay raw materials to study some kind of little-known exclusive secret medicine. ”

"Why are you making this assumption?" Situ Xiujian asked.

"Because most of the clay is black and yellow, it is easy to mix with medicinal herbs and other things."

"Well, yes, yes!" Situ Xiujian nodded with satisfaction and said, "The assumption is very reasonable, your mind is becoming more and more thoughtful, which is really gratifying." ”

"Thank you, Master, for the compliment."

Miao Ruoyan was a little embarrassed, but she couldn't hide a trace of joy in her heart.

Shanwu, do you want to figure out the result, Dad wants to test your brain! Situ Xiujian said.

"Dad, the child thinks that he is drunk and secretly doing illegal things in order to seek huge profits, and his money-making tools are of course inseparable from those bottles and cans!" Situ Shanwu said quite confidently.

"What do you mean by profiteering?"

"Isn't opium paste like clay!"

"You've smoked?"

"Uh, no, I've seen it at the Li family's pharmacy on the street."

"Do you remember it so clearly after reading it once?"

"Dad, why are you getting to the bottom of it, am I like a drug addict?"

Situ Xiujian smiled dumbly: "No, don't be careful, Dad just cares about you, that thing can't be touched, Dad just has a hunch, you will definitely want to go there, as I expected." ”

"Then I guessed right?"

"Well, let's think about something else!"

"It would be nice to come up with one!" Situ Shanwu was quite discouraged.

"What about you?"

Situ Xiujian turned to ask no drunkenness and no forgiveness.

Wu drunk said: "Wu drunk assumes two aspects of this matter, one of which is that the problem is simple, and the cold drunk is purely out of interest, and there is no need to add other reasons." Second, the problem is in the pottery, if the apprentices guess correctly, they aim to avoid people's attention. ”

Situ Xiujian said with emotion: "I didn't expect that I haven't been involved in the affairs of the rivers and lakes for a few years, and so many newcomers have popped up, alas! The long river and the back waves are coming desperately, and our front waves are about to be drowned......"

His eyes suddenly flashed, and he said quietly: "Now, it's your turn to move your muscles and bones." ”

Situ Shanwu and the three apprentices suddenly felt that something was wrong, and they each grabbed their blades and wanted to attack.

Situ Xiujian stretched out his hand to stop: "The roof is very expensive, not to mention that it is still a monument, let's talk about it after leaving people behind." ”

Then he said coldly and loudly: "Friend, you two have heard a lot of secrets, haven't you been satisfied?" Let's talk to each other in person! ”

For a while, the people were quiet, the house was quiet, and even the drifting clouds seemed to suddenly freeze and move.
