Chapter 131: Nameless Village
This is a nameless village, and Qin Mo doesn't know what the name of this village is. The only clue Qin Mo knew was that this village was where Shi Ji's wife, Ran Yu, lived.
Qin Mo's first impression of this village when he entered this village was that it was poor. and rundown. There are only a few families in the village, and the houses in the village are made of yellow clay and wood. I don't know how many times the house has been repaired, and the walls and roof are covered with signs of repair and cracks.
The wood that supports the house has left many traces of time due to the erosion of time, that is, it has rotted in many places.
Qin Mo walked into the village on the yellow dirt path that was muddy after the rain, and saw that there were some old people and children living inside. Among them, children accounted for the vast majority, and the little ones showed a trace of fear on their faces when they saw Qin Mo. From here, it can be seen that very few people come into this village. That's why these children are so afraid of Qin Mo when they see Qin Mo.
Qin Mo looked at the pink faces of those village children and knew that their lives were not bad. In the Yan Dynasty, there were many villages like this. The men in the family have gone out to farm and earn money, and the old people have stayed in the village to take care of the children. Don't think that a dilapidated house will mean that the people in the village are living a hard life.
Anyone who has a few acres of land at home will grow all kinds of grain. The taxes of the Yan Dynasty were not high, and it was enough to pay forty percent of the grain for one mu of land. Because of this, the children in the village are able to eat a different food every day. Under the nutritional supplement of various grains, the children's bodies are naturally getting better and better.
Many of the houses in the village are hundreds of years old. It's enough to make a house dilapidated.
Even if the interior is maintained a lot, it can't resist the gradual aging and cracking of the exterior wall due to the erosion of wind and frost.
Ran Yu and Shi Ji's son live in this kind of house.
Qin Mo walked some distance above the loess path and found a low bungalow in the most remote part of the village.
"Bang! Bang!"
Qin Mo walked to the door, picked up the copper ring in front of the door, and knocked lightly a few times, only to hear a murmur from inside. It wasn't long before a tooth-aching crunch sounded. The broken wooden door opened a crack, and through it came a boy of eleven or twelve, dressed in sackcloth and with a square face. With thick eyebrows, big eyes and a high nose bridge, it doesn't look very special. The most impressive thing is the resolute look in his eyes and the calm face of his face.
"Hello, I'm here to find Ran Yu. Is she at home?" but Qin Mo took the lead in asking the boy after looking at the boy.
Hearing this, the boy replied indifferently, "What are you here for?"
Qin Mo replied: "I was entrusted by someone to come and give Ran Yu something." ”
The boy didn't continue to speak, but looked at Qin Mo a few times. He opened the door and turned around and walked in.
Qin Mo followed the boy until he reached the door of a room.
The boy stopped at the door of the room, and instead of going in at once, he shouted outside into the room, "Mother, I brought someone back." He said he was entrusted to come to you. Can't you see him?"
The voice fell, and only a soft female voice came from the room: "In that case, then bring him in." ”
The boy got permission from Ran Yu, opened the door, and turned sideways to make a way. His meaning was obvious, that is, to invite Qin Mo in. He was watching Qin Mo outside, and if Qin Mo did anything wrong, he would immediately rush in with a weapon.
Although he didn't say that, Qin Mo already understood it from his actions. At that moment, Qin Mo secretly praised him in his heart.
Qin Mo walked into the room, only to see that there was a table, a wardrobe and a bed, and there were teapots and teacups on the table. Nothing else.
Qin Mo only glanced at the room briefly and walked to the table, where a middle-class woman was sitting. What impressed her the most was her weak and strong face. She is Ran Yu.
Qin Mo sat opposite the woman, took out a package from his arms and handed it to Ran Yu. Said: "This is a man surnamed Shi who asked me to pass it on to you." ”
Ran Yu took the package from Qin Mo's hand and opened it to take a look. Inside is Shiji's Heavenly Demon Battle Battle, the Heart Sutra of the Beast and tens of thousands of taels of silver.
Ran Yu didn't look at the silver for the first time, but opened the Heavenly Demon Battle Battle. I found a mezzanine in the pages of the Heavenly Demon Battle, took out a few pieces of letter paper from the mezzanine and read them carefully.
After a while, Ran Yu finished reading the words on these letters. He sighed faintly, looked up at Qin Mo and said, "This little brother, I have a request. I wonder if you can say yes?"
Qin Mo thought for a moment before replying, "As long as I Qin Mo can do it, I won't refuse." ”
When Ran Yu heard this, he whispered to Qin Mo with a hint of pleading in his tone: "Take Min Er as an apprentice, it would be great if you could make him successful." I don't want him to go back to his father's family, please help me. ”
Qin Mo immediately admitted: "Okay, no problem." Since I promised others, then I have to let your mother and son no longer have worries. I have promised to take your son as an apprentice. By the way, what's your son's name?"
Ran Yu replied, "His name is Shi Min." ”
As soon as the words fell, Ran Yu beckoned to Shi Min outside the door and motioned for him to come in. After Shi Min came in, he pointed at Qin Mo and said to him, "Min'er, from now on, he will be your master." By the way, I haven't asked you what your name is?"
Qin Mo replied, "My name is Qin Mo. ”
"Master Qin Mo is good. But it was Shi Min who said respectfully to Qin Mo, and after speaking, he bowed down to Qin Mo and bowed.
Qin Mo was happy at the moment, touched Shi Min's head and said to him: "You still don't call me master, just call me eldest brother in the future." Don't worry, since I promised your mother. I'll do my best to teach you, but I'm not that high. You'll have to study hard, or I'm not sure you'll be able to accomplish much in the future. I can only practice martial arts, but I know how much I can do, and I may not be suitable to be a master to teach others. All I can do is write down what I know in a book for you to practice on your own, and tell you some of my thoughts. If you don't know how to learn on your own, then I can't help you. ”
Shi Min waited until Qin Mo's voice fell before he said, "Got it, big brother." ”
......
......
Without saying anything all the way, Qin Mo took Ran Yu's mother and son back to the small courtyard where he and Shen Li lived, Qin Mo first placed Ran Yu's mother and son in the guest room before returning to his own room and starting to write a book. He's going to write down everything he knows.
After about a quarter of an hour, Qin Mo had written several books that were hundreds of pages thick. After finishing writing, Qin Mo picked up the few books in his hand, pushed open the door, and walked through to Shi Min's room. Putting the book on the table, he said to Shi Min, who was fascinated by reading the boxing scriptures: "I have written everything I know in the book, and you must practice diligently from now on." It's up to you how much you can achieve in the future. If you don't understand something, remember to ask me, although I am not a master. But at least I won't mislead people's children, and after a while, I plan to go to the Three Emperors Sect to cultivate for a while. When the time comes, we'll go together and have a baby. ”
Shi Min first stood up and saluted Qin Mo before saying, "Well, I know." ”
Qin Mo didn't answer, but turned around and left directly. Just as Qin Mo was about to walk out of the door, Shi Min's voice came: "You should know what kind of things you will bring to you with me and my mother, if it is discovered by Han Zhao's people." You may even be in danger of your life. ”
When Qin Mo heard this, he didn't stop. Instead, he said, "I know very well, I know what I'm going to face." In this world, you have to do what you can. I've done a lot of things, including this one, just to prove that I still exist and that I'm really alive in this world. ”
