When Fang Buyi woke up, it was already morning.

When he opened his eyes, he found himself lying on a thick bed of grass in a cave. He turned his head to look around, but he didn't see the figure of the middle-aged beggar.

Outside the cave, the warblers chirped, and the cool air came from the entrance of the cave.

The cave was filled with the smell of alcohol, which made people smell sick.

He was confused about what was happening, when suddenly there was a sound of footsteps and someone coming from outside the cave.

I saw the tall figure of the middle-aged beggar appear at the entrance of the cave. He was cleanly washed, dressed in fancy and gorgeous clothes, dressed as a nouveau riche, and carrying a gray cloth bag in his hand.

He threw the burden to Fang Buyi's side and said, "Change your clothes, eat something, let's wait and go." ”

Fang Buyi opened the bag and saw that it was a new set of clothes. A paper bag next to it exudes an attractive aroma, and it is naturally filled with food.

When he was growing his body, he smelled the aroma, his stomach was rumbling with hunger, he didn't care about changing his clothes, he hurriedly opened the paper bag and saw that several white and fat meat buns appeared in front of him, and hurriedly devoured them.

The middle-aged beggar saw that there were still tears in the corners of his eyes, because of that Ling'er. I know that it is useless to talk too much, he is a little child, and after a long time, he will naturally forget about it.

Fang Buyi suddenly said: "Uncle beggar, you saved me, I don't know your name yet?" ”

The middle-aged beggar said: "You eat quickly, don't ask anything else, I won't say anything else if you ask." I get annoyed when I hear my name, and the most annoying thing is that people call me by my name. In the future, even if you know my name, you are not allowed to call it, do you hear? ”

Fang Buyi said: "Then I call you Uncle Beggar?" The middle-aged beggar said, "That's up to you." ”

Fang Buyi said again: "Uncle beggar, why did you save me? ”

The middle-aged beggar said angrily: "Don't ask what you say, you'll know in two days!" Fang Buyi saw that he was angry and didn't dare to ask again.

After a while, the middle-aged beggar seemed to say slightly apologetically, "Hey, I don't know if this is your creation, or if it has been poured for eight lifetimes?" Or is it the creation that God suddenly gave me after I poured blood mold for half my life? ”

An hour later, a middle-aged beggar appeared in the city of Ning'an in Tongzhou with a square cloth coat.

He rented a carriage from the carriage dealer and asked the coachman to rush to Chenzhou, a merchant country.

When the coachman heard that he was going to Shangguo, he exclaimed: "This lord, don't be joking! Here to Chenzhou, no less than a thousand miles, a round trip is more than half a month, I promised, my evil lady still doesn't agree. ”

The middle-aged beggar said: "This is easy to say, your wife will definitely not have an opinion." After saying that, he stuffed a stack of silver tickets into the coachman's hand, and the coachman was overjoyed, and he didn't say anything more, and immediately rushed to the road.

The journey was long, and Fang Buyi was just thinking about Ling'er at first, and he didn't pay attention to the scenery along the way.

After reading for a few days, after all, the teenager was very active, and when he was bored, he had to stare at the scenery outside the window in a daze.

I got tired of seeing the scenery, so I endorsed it all the way.

His father was a scholar, and he took him to recite many sage articles since he was a child.

He remembered the time when he read with his father, and his heart warmed, and he remembered it more energetically. But after three days of reciting it over and over again, I began to get bored.

A few days later, at dusk, the carriage finally arrived in Chenzhou.

The middle-aged beggar took the cloth clothes to the largest inn in the local area. The shopkeeper saw that the middle-aged beggar was generous and entertained very attentively.

The middle-aged beggar asked for the best room, and asked the shopkeeper to bring wine and food, ate with Fang Buyi, arranged the room, and went out.

At this time, it was already dark, candles were lit in the room, and the middle-aged beggar explained: "Little brother Buyi, I want to go out first." After I leave, you have to put out the candle immediately, and no matter what happens, don't be afraid, stay in the room and don't leave. I will be two hours in the morning, three or four hours late, and I will come back, and when you are tired, rest yourself, and do not wait for me. ”

Fang Buyi asked, "Uncle beggar, where are you going?" ”

The middle-aged beggar said, "Where else can I go, of course, to meet your future master." ”

Fang Buyi said: "Is that the immortal master you are talking about?" Uncle beggar, I don't want to become an immortal, you take me back, I'm going to find Ling'er. ”

The middle-aged beggar said angrily: "When you learn the skill, find it yourself." "I no longer entangled with Fang Buyi, and I went out without looking back.

After the middle-aged beggar left, Fang Buyi extinguished the candles, and was bored in the room alone, with nothing to play, and the fatigue of the journey, he simply went to bed.

I don't know how long I slept, in a daze, I suddenly heard a "squeak", the door opened, I heard the sound of footsteps, and two people came to the room.

Fang Buyi thought that the middle-aged beggar had brought someone back, so he said, "Uncle beggar, are you back?" ”

As the fire lit up, the people who came had already lit the candles in the room.

Fang Buyi sat up and squinted, but there were two strange men, who looked to be in their thirties. a sharp-beaked monkey gills, shaped like a skinny monkey; One is handsome and plump as jade. Both looked at him with eager eyes.

The man with the monkey cheeks said, "Is that this the kid? Let me check it. As he spoke, he walked over to Fang Buyi.

The handsome man said: "Well, be careful, the senior brother is scheming, and he is only afraid of deception." ”

The sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked man said, "Don't worry, we've already investigated outside, there shouldn't be anything wrong." As he spoke, one hand put on Fang Buyi's wrist.

Fang Buyi only felt numb all over his body, wanted to struggle, but couldn't move, and exclaimed, "Who are you?" You know Uncle Beggar, don't you? ”

The thin monkey-like man ignored him, and after a while, he suddenly said happily: "Second Senior Brother, it is indeed an ethereal root, and it is a pure ethereal root!" ”

The second senior brother said with a smile: "Senior brother is senior brother, even the ethereal root of waste wood that occurs once in a thousand years can be found, and it really deserves to be the first scout in the world." ”

The thin monkey-like man said, "Let's take this kid away and surprise the senior brother." Hehe, the senior brother wants to use this kid to blackmail the master, but that's a wrong idea. ”

The second senior brother said: "Without further ado, let's hurry up and take this kid away, it won't be good for the senior brother to come back later, I don't know how long Daddy can hold him back?" ”

The man with the sharp mouth said, "Exactly." He picked up Fang Buyi from the bed, turned around and left.

After taking two steps, he suddenly made a "sigh", his feet were weak, and he fell to the ground. He propped himself up and fell again.

Fang Buyi hurriedly ran away.

The handsome man said angrily: "Why are you so careless...... "Huh......" seemed to notice that something was wrong, and immediately sat down on the ground.

The man with the sharp mouth and monkey cheeks said strangely: "Second senior brother, it's not right! My feet didn't obey the call, my whole body was crisp and soft, the dantian was empty, and even my spiritual power disappeared. ”

The second senior brother paralyzed and said: "Me is the same, it must be the ghost of the senior brother, we are still in his way after all." ”

The sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked man said, "Impossible, before we came in, we had already investigated several times, but we really didn't find anything unusual?" ”

The handsome man frowned and thought about it, and suddenly said loudly: "By the way, it's that candle, and that candle is poisonous!" The two of them looked at the candle together, and saw that the candle flickered, shrouded in a faint layer of smoke, no different from ordinary candles.

Suddenly, the face of the man with the sharp beak and monkey cheeks changed, and he exclaimed, "It's a light cloud soft incense candle!" ”

The second senior brother said: "Exactly." ”

After a pause, he frowned again and said, "This light cloud soft incense candle is just an ordinary candle to mortals. There is a strange toxicity to immortal cultivators, which can make their whole body soft, and gradually dissolve the power of their whole body, making them mortals. ”

"When they lose their skills and become mortals, they don't have to be afraid of this light cloud soft incense candle. It's just that this light cloud soft incense candle, only Uncle Gongsun of this sect knows the method of refining, since Uncle Gongsun disappeared, this light cloud soft incense candle has also disappeared from the world, how can there be such a thing? ”

The sharp-mouthed man said: "Senior brother's investigation skills are unparalleled in the world, but I am afraid that he may have obtained it from the grave of Uncle Gongsun." ”

I wanted to sit up, but I couldn't move, and said, "Second Senior Brother, what should I do, my body is getting softer and softer, and I can't move even a finger." ”

The second senior brother said, "What else?" I can only wait for the big brother to come back. I can't imagine that we have been negligent and planted under the hands of the senior brother again. ”

The sharp-mouthed man said: "But the candle is still burning, and the poisonous gas is getting stronger and stronger, even if the senior brother gives us the antidote, I'm afraid that we will lose several years of skill." ”

Suddenly remembered something, and said loudly to Fang Buyi on the side: "Hey, little ghost, go and put out the candle." ”

Fang Buyi saw that he was commanding, and his expression was a little similar to that of the big tiger who bullied him, and he felt an indescribable disgust in his heart, and immediately said: "You want to go by yourself, don't you have long legs?" Call others at every turn, do you think you are a big official? ”

The sharp-mouthed man said: "Little brat, you dare to contradict me, wait for me to recover my strength, and see if I don't break your ass!" ”

Fang Buyi hated those who bullied him the most, and said at the moment: "You dare to scold me, see if I don't gag your mouth." ”

walked to the side of the bed, took out a black cloth from the baggage, folded it twice, sprinkled a soak of urine on it, took another black cloth, and slowly walked to the sharp-mouthed man.

The sharp-mouthed man panicked: "Stinky boy, what are you going to do?" ”

Fang Buyi smiled and shoved the black cloth soaked in urine into his mouth.

The sharp-mouthed man only felt a burst of urine rushing to his head, anxious and angry, but he couldn't say a word.

The second senior brother watched from the sidelines, remembering that he had also teased others like this when he was a child, and couldn't help but show a smile, but this smile flashed from the corner of his mouth, and then his face was as usual.

He was afraid that he couldn't help laughing again, thinking that it would not be good for his junior brother to see it, so he simply closed his eyes and recuperated.

In this way, all three fell silent. The room was silent, except for the occasional slight "crackling" of the candle.
