"Delicious! Delicious! Uncle, if I marry a daughter-in-law in the future, I have to let her learn your craft. ”

Gao Ziyuan, who had been hungry for a day, did not forget to praise Gao Haoyu's cooking skills while feasting. It's the first time I've eaten the food made by my uncle Gao Haoyu.

The legendary story about his uncle also came to mind.

Gao Haoyu, formerly known as Li Haoyu, was a native of Lijiatun, a small village outside Tianbei City under the jurisdiction of the Qianlong Empire.

At that time, the world was not as peaceful as it had been in the past ten years, and there was some friction between the three empires almost every day, and wars were still frequent.

Li Haoyu was just born in an ordinary woodcutter's family, and when he was five years old, he had to go to a nearby hillside to collect some firewood and save it home, and when his father had enough firewood, he would take it to Tianbei City to sell it to the rich and noble families to subsidize the family.

That year, six-year-old Li Haoyu went to a nearby hillside to pick up some twigs as usual, and after a while, he was almost done.

At this time, he saw an injured baby lynx squatting in the bushes, Li Haoyu tiptoed over, but was still found; The little lynx turned around and ran, and Li Haoyu hurriedly followed the lynx to the forest.

Although the injured little lynx couldn't run fast and could vaguely let Li Haoyu see it, he hid in Tibet to recover his strength, and unknowingly took Li Haoyu to the depths of the mountains and forests.

The thick dense forest in front of him and the little lynx that had long been missing, Li Haoyu was so anxious that he was about to cry. After walking around the mountains and forests for a long time, wiping the dry tears on his face, it was about to get dark. Six-year-old Li Haoyu was hungry and scared, tears crept up his eyes again, blurring his vision.

At this time, the howl of a wild wolf came from nearby, which frightened Li Haoyu and quickly covered his mouth, leaving only tears dripping in his eyes.

The sky was getting dark, and Li Haoyu, who was tiptoeing and didn't know how far he had walked, suddenly saw a cave hidden on the cliff in front of him. Li Haoyu, who was hesitating in front of the cave, heard a wolf howl in his ears again, which frightened Li Haoyu and quickly tied himself into the cave.

Unexpectedly, looking at the small cave from the outside, it was very big inside, and there was a bright light coming from the innermost.

Li Haoyu followed the light and turned a small corner, and actually saw a white skeleton, which frightened Li Haoyu and immediately sat on the ground.

There is nothing terrible about the skeleton, Li Haoyu, who was born in the war, has seen a lot; But the skeleton is actually glowing.

The skeleton in the cave emitted a glittering white light, reflecting the cave brightly. Li Haoyu, who was sitting on the ground, dared to get up slowly for a while, and leaned over to find that although Bai Gu was sitting in the hole, two of the ribs on his left chest were broken and fell to the ground.

On the right hand side of the white bone, if Li Haoyu hadn't pressed it with one hand, it would have been impossible to find that there was a soft and fluffy thing under the thick dust.

Li Haoyu struggled hard, but he didn't move; Li Haoyu, who was full of curiosity, slowly swept the thick dust aside, revealing a white animal skin coat.

The snow-white fur of the coat was pressed into a long sword with a white sheath, and there were many beautiful little gems on the sword. On the right side of the sword there is also a small black brocade wrap, which opens with a book and a small wooden box.

The curious Li Haoyu turned over the pages one by one, I don't know what words were written in the book, and there were some villain paintings, but Li Haoyu couldn't read or understand.

The small box next to it was cold, and when the wooden box was opened, there was a layer of white silk-like muslin wrapped in it, and after the silk cloth was uncovered layer by layer, there was a golden-red mountain ginseng.

The mountain ginseng emits a seemingly scorching red glow, as if a golden-red liquid was flowing inside. Li Haoyu, who was already hungry and rumbling, wiped his hands on his chest, lifted the mountain ginseng and took a bite, but when he bit the skin, liquid flowed into his mouth, and the taste was a little fishy and sweet.

After a while, only the ginseng skin was left after sucking a mountain ginseng, and Li Haoyu, who was especially not addicted, stuffed the whole ginseng skin into his stomach again, and the hunger was relieved a little.

After eating the mountain ginseng, Li Haoyu felt that his body was warm, and he fell asleep in the cave in a daze.

I don't know how long it took for Li Haoyu to wake up, rub his eyes, and run to the entrance of the cave to look outside, it was already noon.

When he returned to the cave, he planned to take the things with him, but the six-year-old Li Haoyu had enough strength to feed, and his little face was flushed and he didn't move the sword for half a minute.

I had to wrap the locket and schoolbook with a black brocade cloth and take it away, and after leaving the cave for a short while, I was afraid that someone would find it in the future, and I was afraid that I would not find it in the future; Li Haoyu was still thinking about the long sword and the soft animal skin coat.

Li Haoyu turned around and went back to carefully cover the cave with branches, and after repeatedly confirming that it would not be discovered, he clapped his little hands with satisfaction, along the way, put two small stones here, fold two small branches there, and leave a mark, and when he grows up, he can pick up the long sword, Li Haoyu must come back.

Li Haoyu tossed in the mountains and forests for a long time, and he didn't know how far he had gone out, but the strange thing was that he was not hungry or tired today, so he carefully left some marks along the way.

"Xiaoyu ~ Xiaoyu ~" Finally, Li Haoyu heard someone calling him by his nickname. Li Haoyu hurriedly responded loudly, spread his feet and ran over.

It was his father Li Dali, and the moment he pounced on his father, Li Haoyu cried, and Li Haoyu, who was originally a cat's face, was even more flowery.

Li Haoyu can have such a nice name, I heard that before he was born, his father Li Dali specially pooled money and went to the city to find a fortune teller to get it.

After looking at Li Dali for a long time, the fortune teller said that Mrs. should be the son of the birth, since he is a son, the eldest husband should have a heroic spirit, and if he wants to have a mind in the sky, he will be called Li Haoyu!

After returning home, Li Haoyu still went to the small hillside to collect some firewood every day as before. The white silk cloth that was taken home was cold, and Li Haoyu's mother said that it was a good cloth and kept it for him to marry his daughter-in-law in the future as a dowry.

The black brocade cloth Li Haoyu's mother planned to sew a piece of clothing for Li Haoyu, but the scissors were broken and they were not cut. had to take his father Li Dali to the city to sell it to subsidize the family, Li Dali hung it around his neck, led the little donkey carrying firewood and went to the city.

Unexpectedly, Li Dali stopped a fairy Taoist on the way, saying that he wanted to buy this cloth, but the Taoist chief had no money, and Li Dali said that it was to be sold for his son to study.

After some communication, the Taoist chief gave Li Dali a gift card, saying that he would let Li Dali take this hand card to the largest private school in Tianwu City, and they would arrange for Li Dali's son to study for free.

Li Dali naturally did not doubt the words of the Taoist of the Immortal Family, and after saying goodbye to the Taoist Master with a thousand thanks, Li Dali took the little donkey and went to the private school.

took out the gift card and was brought in by the doorman, and a big gentleman politely entertained Li Dali, and told Li Dali that someone would go to Lijiatun tomorrow to pick up his son Li Haoyu to study here.

In this way, Li Haoyu was taken to a private school to study for seven years, but Li Haoyu still couldn't understand the words on the book he brought back.

Every time Li Dali went to the city to sell firewood, he would go to the private school to visit Li Haoyu, Li Haoyu's life in the private school was also very good, and every few months, Mr. Da would arrange for someone to take Li Haoyu to visit his mother.

Mr. Da in the private school originally wanted to take Li Haoyu's parents to the city for placement, but Li Dali's family was simple. Li Haoyu's father, Li Dali, said that they were already very grateful for letting Li Haoyu study for free at school, how could they be embarrassed to accept such kindness again.

Besides, he only asked the Taoist head of the Immortal Family for the request of letting his son Li Haoyu go to school, so his family would not bother the gentlemen.

In the eighth year, the friction between the Qingyang Empire and the Qianlong Empire became increasingly intense, breaking the originally peaceful life of Li Haoyu's family.
