The white-haired grandfather rowed a boat up the river, turned a mountain bend, and Zhu Cijiao woke up.

He rubbed his eyes with his arms, and found himself lying on the boat, a gray-haired old man, standing at the bow of the boat, his hands swinging rhythmically on the oars, and the boat slowly moved forward on the river between two mountains.

"Grandpa, what kind of place is this? How did I end up here? Zhu Cijiao looked at the white-haired grandfather with a thin body and a vicissitudes of life and asked.

"This is on Grandpa's boat, you just passed out by the river, afraid that you are in danger, so I brought you to the boat." The white-haired grandfather said as he shook the oars.

"Grandpa, where are we going?" Although the white-haired grandfather doesn't look like a bad guy, but the bad guy is not written on his face, it's better to be careful, looking at the vast and barren mountains, Zhu Cijiao asked tentatively.

"Grandpa is going home, child, where is your home? Grandpa can send you back. The white-haired grandfather wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, while bringing up a question by the way.

This white-haired grandfather is still a bit like a police check, Zhu Cijiao began to be alert, looking at the white-haired grandfather, he scratched his head, and shook his head again, silence is golden.

"Kid, can't you remember? It's okay, you go to grandpa's house first, and when you remember, grandpa will send you back, okay? ”

Zhu Cijiao nodded: "Okay, thank you grandpa." He traveled to the emperor's house for more than two years, and it has become a habit to treat people and things with etiquette.

In fact, he fled from Zhaoqing, and Zhu Cijiao didn't know where his father and mother fled to, and where was his home, so it was okay for him to choose to be silent.

"Child, what's your name? What are the names of the parents? The white-haired man asked again, is it really to check the household registration, and if you don't achieve your goal, you won't rest?

"My name is 爝儿, the '爝' next to the word fire." Zhu Cijiao only said his nickname, he did not say his father's name, and now the Qing soldiers are chasing and killing his father, so it is better to hide it.

"How did you faint by the river? Who did you come out with? "The white-haired grandfather is still resting, and is still trying to find out about Zhu Ciyi's situation.

"I came out with my mother Wang, and on the way to escape, I got lost with my mother." Zhu Cijiao thought about it and replied that it was nothing to reveal his mother's surname, after all, there were many people with the surname Wang.

……

As the sun sets over the mountain, a golden glow shines down from the towering mountain and shines on the tranquil river.

The boat was moored by the river in a mountain bend, and the white-haired grandfather tied the cable tied to the boat to the stump by the river, jumped on the back of the boat, carried the fishing net in advance with one hand, and led Zhu Cijiao off the boat with the other.

The two of them climbed up a small road hidden in the weeds by the river, and climbed to the top of the hill, where there was a small flat land, and a hut was built, and in front of the house were some Chinese herbs and fishing nets.

There are several towering trees next to the hut, and some sandbags are hung on the trees, and many stumps of different heights are planted under the trees according to the Taiji diagram.

From everything here, it can be seen that the white-haired grandfather should be a folk warrior who makes a living from fishing, hunting, and collecting medicine.

"Grandpa, you're back!" As soon as they reached the top of the hill, a girl's voice was heard.

Following the prestige, a little girl swooped down from a big tree and ran towards her white-haired grandfather.

"Grandpa, ...... this?" The little girl took the fishing net from the white-haired grandfather's hand, looked at Zhu Cijiao and asked in a low voice.

"This is Xiao Yao, you can call him Xiao Xiao Brother."

"This is buckwheat, you can call her the buckwheatflower sister group."

The white-haired grandfather held Zhu Cijiao in one hand and buckwheat in the other, and introduced the two children respectively.

Buckwheat is three years older than Zhu Cijiao, more than one meter tall, with a sturdy body, a dark complexion, exuding the smell of the sun, mixed with two small ponytails, and a pair of peugeot little faces with a clear eye......

"Hello Sister Buckwheat!" Zhu Cijiao took the initiative to say hello, and at the same time stretched out his right hand, and a pair of bright eyes looked at the little buckwheat.

"Little brother, welcome!" Buckwheat also stretched out her hand and gently held Zhu Ciyi's hand, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, and a bright smile appeared on her face.

"Grandpa, are you Langzhong? So many herbs were picked. Zhu Cijiao saw that there were a lot of Chinese medicinal materials in front of the hut, so he ran over and grabbed a handful and asked.

"Yes, these are good medicinal herbs from the mountains." The white-haired grandfather nodded.

"These Chinese medicinal materials were picked by me and my grandfather, and when you grow up, I will take you to the mountains to pick them." Buckwheat looked at Zhu Cijiao and said.

"I'm three years old, and I'm not young, you see, I'm as tall as you, Sister Buckwheat is going to collect medicine, you must take me!" Zhu Cijiao said, standing beside Buckwheat and comparing her height.

"Well, Xiao Yao is only three years old, and he is as tall as buckwheat, and he must be a tall and handsome boy when he grows up." The white-haired grandfather looked at the two innocent children and said.

Zhu Cijiao was full of freshness about everything going up the mountain, and his black eyes were looking everywhere.

"Grandpa, you practice martial arts, there are so many things to practice martial arts." Seeing that there were shuttle labels, three-section sticks and other instruments on the low wall in front of the door, Zhu Cijiao picked up a leather whip and asked.

"Yes, practice some basic skills and move your muscles and bones normally." The white-haired man said lightly.

"Grandpa is at stake, Tai Chi, darts, crossbow shooting, light skills, etc., everything." As soon as they met, Buckwaff liked this smart brother a little, and consciously or unconsciously revealed her grandfather's secret.

"Really, grandpa, I want to learn martial arts, can you teach me martial arts?" Zhu Cijiao looked at the buckwheat, and then ran to the white-haired grandfather to follow, took his grandfather's hand and said.

"Yes, but practicing martial arts is very hard and tiring, as long as you are not afraid of hardship or tiredness, grandpa will teach you everything you know." The white-haired grandfather squatted down, straightened Zhu Cijiao's collar and said.

"Grandpa, as long as I can practice martial arts, I'm not afraid of any hardship! Thank you, grandpa, please accept the little grandson! Zhu Cijiao said, knelt on the ground, folded his hands, and gave the white-haired grandfather a bowing salute.

"Ding-ding-"

At this time, the elf of the dragon protection system issued a voice: "Congratulations to the host for successfully entering the no-man's land, and when you meet the noble person of fate, please cherish the host." ”

"Damn, what kind of system, why didn't you say it earlier, it made me worry all the way." Zhu Ciyi muttered silently in his heart.

"Little Eagle, let's go inside! Buckwheat, you go get some firewood, it's time for us to cook. The white-haired grandfather stepped forward to help Zhu Ciyi, and then looked at the little buckwheat beside him and said.

"Okay, grandpa." Buckwheat nodded, and went to the back of the hut to pick up firewood.

The white-haired grandfather walked to the hut and gently pushed the door open, and Zhu Cijiao followed him into the hut......
