Chapter 116: A Life, Grass and Trees
Zhang Chu came out of the general rudder.
Da Xiong greeted him and asked in a low voice, "Master Chu, what did the helper say?"
Zhang Chu nodded and said, "Yes, during the time I leave, the gang leader will send Elder Liu Wu to the Black Tiger Hall to take charge!"
For him to return to his hometown to worship his ancestors and repair the tomb of his father and brother, Hou Juntang not only did not stop him, but also appreciated it very much, not only personally waved it, but also wrote the eight-character tomb couplet of "Eternal Youth, Virtue Forever" for his father, and also took the initiative to ask if he needed to send someone to accompany him.
In this world, although there is no famous saying "filial piety comes first", the respect for filial piety is definitely not weaker than that of ancient China.
Of course, this in itself is a very simple truth.
No matter how many merits a person has, if he does not even honor the parents who gave birth to him and raised him, can he still be expected to remember the affection of his friends?
On the contrary, even if a person has done all the bad things, as long as he still honors his parents, it means that this person still has the most basic humanity and has something to make friends with.
Zhang Chu sat on the carriage, and Da Xiong asked, "Master Chu, are we going home?"
Zhang Chu hesitated for a moment and said, "Go to the cattle and sheep market, my master's house." ”
"Yes, Master Chu!"
......
Zhang Chu entered the Liang house, and after saluting Liang Wufeng in a proper manner, he talked about taking concubines and returning to his hometown to worship his ancestors.
Liang Wufeng listened to him, nodded and said, "Due righteousness, when will you leave?"
Zhang Chu: "Early tomorrow morning." ”
Liang Wufeng frowned: "Is it so urgent?"
Zhang Chu said with a smile: "Go early and return early, it just so happens that my mother has set a fifteenth Lantern Festival to welcome the newlyweds into the house, and I will leave tomorrow, and I hope to come back before the Lantern Festival...... By the way, you have to take good care of yourself these days, your father is not here, and when the time comes, I can only ask you to go over and be a high hall. ”
When Liang Wufeng heard this, he couldn't help but glance out of the door and asked, "Didn't the two newcomers come over today?"
Zhang Chu slapped his forehead when he heard this, and said embarrassedly: "I forgot to bring them over to meet the master." ”
Liang Wufeng didn't care, got up and walked outside the hall, summoned the old servant Fu Bo, and whispered.
After a while, Fauber returned with a palm-sized sandalwood box.
Liang Wufeng took the sandalwood box and handed it to Zhang Chu: "This is a meeting gift for the teacher to the two newcomers, you will give it to the teacher on your behalf!"
Zhang Chu took the box curiously, opened it, and saw a pair of pure and flawless green jade bracelets inside, shining and shining.
Zhang Chu's hand trembled, and he got up and said, "Master, this gift is too precious, and the disciple doesn't dare to accept it!"
His eyesight is not bad.
Although I don't know how much jadeite is worth in this world, if this pair of glass-grown green jadeite bracelets are placed in the jewelry store of the magic capital, if you don't wear a hundred thousand yuan on your body, the clerk will not take it out for you to see...... I'm afraid that you will scratch the flowers and can't afford to pay for it!
"Take it!"
Liang Wufeng didn't answer, and sighed lightly: "This pair of bracelets, originally when your senior sister got married, spent a lot of money to buy the dowry for the teacher, but later due to fate, it has not been sent out, smashed in your hands and not eaten or drunk, just when you welcome a newcomer in your house, the right should be the right to the situation!"
Zhang Chu knew that the "senior sister" in his mouth was the youngest daughter of his children who had never met.
He sighed in his heart, and once again slammed it to the end: "Master Xie!"
This is the master-apprentice relationship.
I think that when he first apprenticed, the apprenticeship he offered was only ten taels of silver.
Ten taels of silver, I'm afraid it's enough to take a look at this pair of bracelets.
It was also at this moment that he suddenly discovered that Liang Wufeng treated him, except for those martial arts that were entangled in grievances and grudges that had not yet taught him, and he was no different from the heirs of the mantle.
After the two of them sat down again, Liang Wufeng asked casually, "That "Golden Cloth Gong", you haven't started practicing yet, have you?"
Zhang Chu smiled awkwardly: "You also know that martial arts...... It's a big New Year, and the whole blood is mushy, which is not very lucky!"
Liang Wufeng smiled and stroked his beard and said: "It's not very lucky, but you have to be fast, you don't feel very good for the teacher recently, maybe you won't live long, if you don't make a quick move, you will have to break your promise to the teacher!"
The plain and casual words fell on Zhang Chu's ears, but they were like thunder.
He was stunned, came back to his senses and said with a forced smile: "Master, why are you saying this, you are in such good spirits, it will be easy to live for another ten years and eight years!"
Liang Wufeng smiled and said, "Then I can borrow your auspicious words." ”
His expression was still flat.
But it is this kind of blandness that makes Zhang Chu worried.
He got up, and after wandering around the hall a few times anxiously, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he said urgently as if grasping a life-saving straw: "Master, your weak body is due to the decline of blood qi, and the disciple can not only pass on the blood qi to his subordinates, but also pass it on to you, you are all this age, and you don't care if you can't improve your martial arts, right?"
He rolled up his sleeves and was about to step forward to transmit blood qi to Liang Wufeng.
Liang Wufeng waved his hand and said softly: "I have a heart, if this method is useful, it would have been proposed by the teacher a long time ago...... The reason why your blood and qi can be used by your subordinates is because their own blood and qi are still running, and the blood and qi of your teacher have been depleted for many years, and your blood and qi entering the body are just rootless trees and boundless water, which can be maintained for a while, but cannot be maintained for a lifetime!"
Zhang Chu stepped forward stubbornly, and gently pressed a palm on his skinny chest: "Even if it can only last for a quarter of an hour, it's good, don't feel sorry for your blood, the disciple is born with abnormal blood, you know, it's enough!"
Liang Wufeng did not refuse, and smiled lightly and let him do it.
The majestic blood qi was divided into strands and wisps, and poured into Liang Wufeng's body through Zhang Chu's palm.
However, Zhang Chu's heart sank all the way.
He saw that after his blood qi entered Liang Wufeng's body for a turn, it escaped from the pores around him.
His old man's body is like a bamboo basket.
The bamboo basket is destined to be empty!
"That's it!"
Liang Wufeng gently separated Zhang Chu's palm with a palm.
His hands are obviously so thin that only skin and bones remain, but they are still like iron tongs, and Zhang Chu can't stop it!
"For the teacher to know that you are filial, but in life, in the autumn of grass and trees, if you are a person, you will always die, and you can end up a good death for the teacher, which is already very satisfying!"
He smiled and said lightly: "You are going to leave for your hometown tomorrow, there must be many things to settle down at home, as a teacher, I won't leave you to eat, go back early!"
"Hey. ”
Zhang Chu replied, and after saluting Liang Wufeng with a gloomy expression, he picked up the sandalwood box and walked out.
Liang Wufeng got up to send him off.
Walking to the door of the hall, Zhang Chu's eyes caught a glimpse of Liang Wufeng, who was rickety and had snow-white hair, his nose was sour, he turned around and knelt solemnly in front of Liang Wufeng, and kowtowed to him three times: "Master, take care, the disciple is gone!"
Liang Wufeng was hit by him three times, then patted him on the shoulder, and chuckled: "Go, go early and come back early!"
Zhang Chu answered in a low voice, got up and went outside.
When he walked into the courtyard, he suddenly heard Liang Wufeng's voice coming from behind him: "Apprentice, remember, Liang Chongxiao, the name of the teacher, nicknamed 'Iron Rope Hengjiang'!"
Zhang Chu's footsteps stopped suddenly, and after standing for a few breaths, he threw off his steps and strode out.
Didn't dare to look back.
Look at the emaciated old man.
