"Good karma?"

Qi Wufu shook his head when he heard this, and said a sentence from the dream:

"It's hard work, why worry about it."

After a pause, some young people were somewhat stubborn, and defended themselves:

"I didn't help my husband to repay him!"

The old man laughed and said, "Of course I do. ”

Again and again.

The watchman walked over with a bangzi and glanced at Qi Wufu, as if he hadn't been able to see the old man on his back, but said impatiently:

"I'm afraid there will be snow tonight, and you're in thin clothes outside, I'm afraid you're going to be frozen to death! Let's go home. "The watchman wore a dark blue padded jacket, but it seemed that he had not washed it for a long time, and he wore a layer of black, gloves made of animal skin, and a water bladder hanging from his waist, but it was liquor.

Playing at night in winter is even more chore.

Take a sip of spirits to refresh your throat and warm your body, as long as you don't overdo it and don't get drunk.

Qi Wufu thanked him and got out of the way.

Waiting for the watchman to pass, only to carry the old man step by step towards the direction of home, the watchman walked a few steps forward, suddenly thought of something, was about to turn back to say, but saw the young man step forward, the posture is calm, but the speed is extremely fast, the dragon and tiger step in general, crashed into the wind and snow, a few steps disappeared, can't help but be stunned.

"It's strange how this kid is so fast today."

"Walk as you run."

"Isn't it possible not to be tired?"

wiped his eyes, looked at the wine jug again, and for a while, there was still most of it, so he became more and more suspicious: "I haven't drunk too much." ”

"It's weird."

…………

The town is quite large, with more than 10,000 households, and the middle is the place where officials deal with affairs, with this as the center, the second level is the rich households in the town, outside the staff, and the second level is some people who have surplus wealth at home, and Qi Wufu is a foreign homeless person, although he is taken in, there is only a small wooden house at the edge of the town.

It was originally lived by the forest keepers more than 20 years ago, defending against wild beasts, and later the official family sent troops up the mountain several times, the range of wild beasts retreated, the position of forest keeper disappeared, and the house was abandoned for more than ten years, and it has long been dilapidated.

Although there were many displaced people who came here back then, no one looked down on them.

I would rather go further and go to the capital of this state, but Qi Wufu, who was only nine years old at the time, stayed here.

Carrying the old man, it would not take a moment to arrive, and he was entered by that strange breath, and his physical strength was light and healthy, and it seemed that he was faster than Qi Wufu going down the mountain and going home.

He didn't perceive the previous breath entering his body, but he thought it was the wind and snow urging him today, and his steps were faster, so he pushed open the door, let the old man sit on the bench first, and then made a fire with hay, and after a while, the whole house was warm, and took out a small sac made of tulle, in which there were many strange insects, which shone at night, like a lamp, placed in the center, and the room was bright.

The old man took the bowl of hot water handed over by Qi Wufu, looked at the insect lamp, and smiled in surprise:

"Huh...... The children are dexterous. ”

Qi Wu said confusedly: "The family has no money to spare, so I have to find a way." ”

The old man stroked his beard and looked around at the small wooden house.

The original dilapidated places have been well repaired, there are not many utensils in the house, but they are all neatly placed, and there are a few pots of green plants that can grow in winter on the side of the windowsill, which is refreshing and clean as a whole.

There are also a few strips of bacon hanging on one side, which look like wild beasts in the mountains.

It was stripped of its fur and dried to make it jerky.

In today's world, many places with abundant vegetation and harmless beasts have been designated by the royal family as their hunting grounds, and in spring and autumn, the magnates hunt on horseback, and usually let these wild beasts and prey thrive.

Ordinary people must not go inside to hunt with bows, otherwise if they are caught, they will be whipped dozens of times and bed for three months, or they may be caught red-handed by the parade soldiers and thrown into prison.

These rabbits and the like are only occasionally caught by beasts.

And there are a lot of them here, which shows that this young man is extremely dexterous, and the end of the year is approaching, which is about to be prepared for the winter, although he is poor, but he is also full of expectations for life.

The old man bowed slightly.

But he had already seen Qi Wufu's efforts to grind the herbs, and he had taken some rough grain in the urn, added water and boiled it without three fingers, and when it was about to be ripe, he took a piece of cured rabbit meat, and originally planned to cut a small part, but after thinking about it, he cut it a little more.

Cut into small pieces on the table and cook them in an urn together with the cabbage, which tastes sweeter after the frost in winter, and the aroma will be permeated in a moment, and the warmth will rise.

When the old man had changed the medicine, the pot of meat porridge had been prepared, and the table that was placed vertically on one side was turned upside down and flattened, and two bowls of porridge were served, and a stack of vinegar-pickled cabbage was placed on the table.

Juvenile Road:

"The family is poor, and there is nothing to entertain."

"I hope the old gentleman won't be surprised."

The old man looked at the clear-eyed but serious young man in front of him, and faintly felt that this child seemed to be quite happy about the fact that he could eat with others instead of being alone when he went home.

But even though he was happy, his face was still calm and calm.

The old man took a sip of porridge, only to think it was quite delicious, and sandwiched a chopsticks of pickled vegetables, crisp and refreshing, and said with a smile: "It's delicious, I don't know how to call you, little friend, I don't know the name of Gao?" ”

Qi Wufu put down the dishes and chopsticks and said:

"The surname Gao is not a big name, my surname is Qi."

"The name is no confusion, and I hope that there will be no confusion in my life."

The old man sighed: "Qi is not confused......"

"The word "no confusion" is easy to say, but it is rare."

"The old man's surname is Li, and he is emotional, but he has the same surname as that Taoist ancestor, and he has lived too long, and his name has not been used for a long time."

I don't know what I thought, my voice paused slightly, I looked at the young man in front of me, I just saw that his soul was strong and there was an abnormality at the beginning, I thought it was some kind of evil demon and gave it to others, but he carried it all the way, and felt that his soul fit, and there was no possibility of giving up, his voice paused, thought for a while, and then smiled:

"However, you carried me all the way, treated my injuries and gave me food, the old man has to repay you well, come on, little brother, whatever you want, you can say everything, I will definitely satisfy you."

Qi Wufu shook his head and said, "I didn't save Elder Li for this. ”

The old man stroked his beard, stretched out his hand and smiled:

"Slow down, slow down, and it's not too late to listen to it first."

He looked at Qi Wufu's life, stretched out his finger and pointed to the dilapidated gatehouse, and said with a smile: "In this way, I will give you a thousand taels of gold and silver, ten carriages and horses, a hundred servants, three in and three out of the house, a rich life, and dozens of heirs, how about it?" ”

Qi Wufu shook his head.

The old man smiled and asked why.

Qi Wufu thought for a moment and replied:

"Wan Zhong accepts it without arguing about propriety and righteousness, how can Wan Zhong be to me?"

"Well deserved."

It was the words he had seen in his dreams.

The old man was stunned, thought for a while, and said: "That's it, how about that, I see that you live alone and are lonely, the old man is also a little famous, he knows five surnames and seven sects, the youngest daughter of the Cui family is very beautiful, like an immortal, you save my life, I am willing to ask for it for you, how about it." ”

"With the help of this family, accompanied by a beautiful wife, and a beautiful woman by your side, the two are happy with each other, and the red sleeves add fragrance, aren't you happy?"

Qi Wufu frowned and shook his head: "Uncle, you said that in order to repay me, but because of me, the fate of a woman who has never met has changed, which is trapping me in injustice." ”

"Besides, I don't know her, and if I say yes, isn't it just for the sake of the flesh? What else do you say about the joy of the two? ”

The old man was still about to speak, Qi Wufu pointed to the porridge:

"Old man, the porridge is going to be cold."

After a pause, he added another sentence that the boy felt was the biggest threat:

"If you don't eat it, I'll eat it!"

The old man didn't feel offended by being rejected several times, but smiled a little more, nodded with a smile, drank a sip of porridge, and finally shook his head and said:

"Don't do that, don't want that, that's it."

He put down the porridge, his black eyes were as warm as jade, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and he wrote lightly:

"You bear me a thousand and two hundred steps, and you should make a good fate."

"The door is the way, and the passage is the path."

"I will open a door and be with Ershou for 1,200 years."

"How?"
