Ah Zheng is a person with no memory.

Or to be more precise, he is a person who has no memory of the first half of his life, and through living with Master Li Laohan in the past six months, he has found that he is not a forgetful person, he just forgets who he is.

I remember that when Ah Zheng, who could only lie on the bed and couldn't move half a year ago, opened his eyes for the first time, he saw an old man with a wrinkled face dangling in front of him, and after a long sigh, the old man stared at the man who had been in a coma on the bed for many days, and just opened his eyes and said, "Forget it, you will follow my surname Li in the future." After saying this, the old man stared at his face again, frowned and looked at him for a long time, turned his head to look out of the house, squinted his eyes towards the small hill in front of the house, straightened his waist, put his left hand behind his back, stroked the sparse gray beard on his chin with his right hand, and sighed again.

Unlike the previous sigh, after this sigh, the old man nodded as if he had made a major decision, his eyes slowly became firm, and he said, "Okay, okay, I thought about it." As he spoke, the old man suddenly turned his head around, stared at him with a fierce look that at least seemed to Ah Zheng, and after nodding his head twice, he said: "After careful consideration, I decided to give you a name, and I will call you 'Zheng'." ”

"'Positive'. After repeating the word, the master looked at his toes, a satisfied smile appeared on his face, and nodded approvingly for the third time: "Ah Zheng." Yes, yes, it's a very good name. ”

After the master nodded for the fourth time, the old man raised his head to look at Ah Zheng's face, and said two "appropriate, appropriate" with a smile.

Ah Zheng was stunned for a moment, although he didn't understand what the "appropriate" in Master's mouth meant, but he wasn't ready to open his mouth to ask him about the old man, but secretly remembered the look on his face that Master stayed on his face, Ah Zheng thought to himself, one day he would understand everything.

Master's small thatched hut, where only an old man lived in him before, and now there is a Ah Zheng, there is no such thing as a mirror in the house of these two big men, but half a year later, when Ah Zheng was finally able to get out of bed and walk a few steps, in the copper basin where he washed his face, Ah Zheng saw his appearance for the first time, and he immediately understood the intention of the master to give him this name, and his appearance reflected in the copper basin did bear the "Zheng" character given to him by the master.

It's just that there is one thing that makes Ah Zheng always linger, that is, every time he sees the face of a person who is about twenty years old, with a Chinese character face, and is always a preoccupied person, Ah Zheng always has a feeling that he is looking at a stranger. Whenever this happens, he can't help but raise his hand and repeatedly touch his face to confirm it several times, before he is sure in his heart that the face in the copper basin that shakes slightly with the water surface is his own.

As for where his old man went, Ah Zheng didn't know, but he knew that Master would not come back until the time of the lamp, and he must have been drunk after coming back. If the master is not too drunk, maybe he will bring back some food for Ah Zheng.

Of course, this is just a relatively good wish in Ah Zheng's heart, because most of the time, every time Master comes back, he is drunk and falls asleep, and Ah Zheng, who has been hungry for a day, can only listen to the snoring of his old man, endure the pungent smell of wine, in the sound of his stomach rumbling, and stare at two eyes in the dark little thatched hut, imagining what kind of good wine and good food Master and his old man ate when they were drinking outside today.

Half a year later, when Ah Zheng was finally able to walk on his own, the master, who had never been in shape, said to him with tears in his eyes: "Your boy's life is really big." I think that when I dragged you back to my small hut on the side of the road, I saw that you only had qi out and no qi in, but I didn't expect that you could survive with such a serious injury, it was really not easy. ”

Hearing Master's emotion, Ah Zheng took advantage of Master's efforts to wipe the corners of his eyes with his head down, and glanced at his old man angrily, thinking: It is indeed not easy to survive without eating a meal in the past six months.

"Alas······" After wiping away the tears that did not exist in the corners of his eyes, the master and his old man raised his head high, looked at the roof of the small hut, sighed, and continued with emotion: "I don't know who you offended before, how could you hurt you so badly?"

Listening to Master's question, Ah Zheng didn't react, he just lowered his head and held the clay kang he had been lying on for half a year with one hand, practicing walking with one foot deep and one foot shallow like a newborn baby.

After waiting for a long time and not hearing an answer, the master turned his head to someone who was acting strangely, and muttered angrily, "What if you are saved? It's not a piece of wood." ”

I've already walked more than 20 steps with the kang in my arms, and I'll try to let go of my hands and walk up a few steps to take a look.

Ah Zheng ignored Master's complaints, took a deep breath, and slowly left the edge of the kang with his hand.

Standing quite steady, it seems that this is a good start, and the expressionless Ah Zheng is happy in his heart.

Taking a deep breath again, Ah Zheng suppressed the excitement in his heart and lifted his left foot very gently.

may have been influenced by Ah Zheng, and the master, who had been chattering all the time, also quieted down at this time, and his eyes were constantly staring at Ah Zheng's left foot that was slowly falling.

The toes hit the ground first, then the forefoot, and finally the back heel.

At the moment when Ah Zheng thought that he had taken this step successfully, he suddenly stumbled and fell to the ground.

"Hiss ······"

This new injury and old one made Ah Zheng can't help but gasp.

"Say you're a piece of wood, you're really a piece of wood, and even the way you fall to the ground is different from others. The master raised his palms upwards and tilted his head to look at Ah Zheng lying on the ground.

I guess I wanted to catch me, but I was a step slower.

Ah Zheng, who was lying on the ground, rubbed the sore place of the fall, looked at the master's two hands and thought, to be honest, it is quite touching.

"People can't look good, and the sea can't fight, this old saying is really true······" The master stood aside with a frown, looking at Ah Zheng who was still lying on the ground, halfway through his words, he realized something, and asked, "Hey, wood, do you want me, an old man, to pull you up?"

No, I can get up myself. After answering the old man's question in his heart, Ah Zheng moved his eyes to the side that were staring at the old man's hand, supported his body with his hands, and tried to stand up on his own.

I couldn't hear an answer, but the old man seemed to understand the meaning of Ah Zheng's action, so he didn't insist on helping him up, and then said what he hadn't finished saying before: "You said that I named you 'Zheng' based on your appearance, but now it seems that it is still hasty, if it is according to your character, I think you should still be called Amu." ”

The old man's ridicule of the people on the ground sounded meaningless, and the most important thing now was the question of how to stand up.

"Ahh Alas... I'm still a young man. The old man looked around with interest for a moment at someone who was struggling to stand up on the ground, shook his head and said this, then turned and walked out of the small hut.

The footsteps outside the house became farther and farther away, Ah Zheng breathed a long sigh of relief, and then turned over with great difficulty, supported the ground with both hands, straightened his upper body, and pulled it to the edge of the bed, and then slowly stood up and sat back on the kang.

Looking at the sunlight outside the small hut, Ah Zheng couldn't help but fall into deep thought: although the old man would always leave so suddenly without a sound, but in Ah Zheng's memory, this was the first time that the old man left so early.

I don't know if it's because Ah Zheng can walk on the ground, that's why he's like this.

"Haha······"

Just when Ah Zheng was staring at the door of the house in a daze, he suddenly heard a burst of old man's laughter outside, mixed with some talking voices, but because the voice was too small when he spoke, Ah Zheng didn't hear the content of the words clearly.

As the laughter and talking became quieter, the footsteps outside the door were getting closer and closer, and it seemed that the old man had returned.

As soon as the old man entered the door, he smiled and shouted loudly at Li Zheng, who was sitting on the kang: "Come on, come on, drink while it's hot." ”

Hearing this, Li Zheng was shaken all over his body, and stared at the bowl in the old man's hand that was getting closer and closer to him with an extremely painful expression.

Having said that, Li Zheng has not eaten a single meal since the day he lived in the old man's small hut, and he relies on medicine every day to maintain himself. In the first month, I had to drink three bowls of medicine a day, and after a month, it was changed to two bowls a day, and then the old man saw that Li Zheng's body was getting better and better, and gradually it became one bowl a day.

Li Zheng has been drinking this medicine for half a year, and it is said that he should have gotten used to its taste a long time ago, but looking at the bowl of black soup that the old man held up in front of him, Li Zheng's back still couldn't help but start to break out in a cold sweat.

"Come, come, drink while it's hot. Old man Li looked at Ah Zheng with a smile: "The same recipe, the same taste." After speaking, he winked at Ah Zheng.

Li Zheng looked up at the old man who was standing and talking without backache, swallowed a mouthful of saliva unconsciously, turned his heart sideways, reached out to take the medicine bowl in the old man's hand, and poured the medicine in the bowl into his stomach with a few sips of his head up.

When returning the empty bowl to the old man, the old man looked at the bottom of the bowl with a sad face and said, "Didn't I tell you many times? This is medicine, how can it be like drinking water? Medicine, of course, must be drunk in small sips to have an effect." ”

After the indescribable bitterness in his mouth finally slowly disappeared, Ah Zheng raised his head and gave Old Man Li a roll of his eyes.

"How's it going, are you feeling better?"

As soon as he took the medicine bowl, Old Man Li asked busily.

Hearing the old man's question, Ah Zheng's heart instantly swelled with gratitude, no matter how he said that his life was saved by the old man. Thinking of this, Ah Zheng was just about to say some words of gratitude to the old man, when he saw the old man take a step forward, stretch his neck, put his face in front of Ah Zheng's eyes, smiled, lowered his voice and asked, "That······ I'm just curious to ask, this ······ How's it going?"

Ah Zheng was stunned for a while, he suspiciously looked at the old man standing in front of him from top to bottom, nothing special found, so he decided to look carefully from the bottom to the top, not to mention, this time it was really rewarding, his eyes looked at the old man's right hand that was making a rising movement and holding an empty medicine bowl, and then looked directly into the old man's eyes, and asked righteously: "Excuse me, what are you asking about the taste of this medicine?"

This time, the old man was stunned for a moment, his eyes quickly glanced to the side with Ah Zheng's question, and the smile on his face was piled up with another layer, and he took another half step forward, nodded and replied: "Yes, yes, that's what I asked." ”

"Isn't this medicine bowl in your old hand? Ah Zheng squinted at the old man's right hand, which was still doing the "uplifting" movement, and said angrily: "Well, isn't there a little bit of medicine residue left in this bowl? Also, isn't my medicine boiled by you every day? If you really feel that this one or two mouthfuls are not enjoyable, you can keep one or two bowls for yourself next time you boil me medicine. ”

After saying the words in his heart in one breath, Ah Zheng continued to walk around the earthen kang without raising his head.

"You······ You ······" The old man looked down at the medicine bowl in his hand, and then looked up at Ah Zheng, who was all right, his beard was straight, and he raised his hand to point at the back of the finger that was getting farther and farther away from the finger he stretched out, and couldn't even say a complete sentence, standing in place, snorting and panting.

Ah Zheng couldn't say anything angry with the old man in one sentence

"Anyone?"

At that moment, only a shout came from outside the small hut.

For a while, the two people in the room suddenly didn't move as if they had been immobilized. After pricking up his ears and listening for a while, he saw that the voice was getting closer and closer to the small hut, and Ah Zheng, who had been facing away from the old man, slowly turned around and asked with a serious face: "Who is outside······ Is it looking for you?"

The old man turned his face to look at Ah Zheng, and was just about to say something, when the two of them heard a rush of footsteps as if they had entered the courtyard, so the two of them turned their heads to the door of the house in unison, waiting for who the person to see was.

Sure enough, after only one breath, a man's big hand appeared on the door frame of their dilapidated house.

The man looked to be in his thirties, and as soon as he showed his head at the door of the house, he panted and asked, "That, is Master Li at home?"

"Yes, yes, I am. Old man Li was slightly stunned, and walked forward with a smile: "Dare to ask this strong man what is the matter with the old man?"

The man looked at Li Laohan fixedly, and immediately became respectful, and then he even learned the appearance of a literati, arched his hand towards the old man with both hands and fists, and said, "Hello Master Li, my master has come to ask you to go to our house." ”

Hearing this, Li Laohan lowered his head and muttered for a long time, rubbed the half-long beards on his chin with two fingers, and said with a look of embarrassment: "If this is the old man, I will leave with you without saying a word." But now I have a new waste apprentice, although this apprentice is not smart, but I still have to teach as a master, no matter how I say it, I can't let my ability be lost. Of course, if you want to talk about teaching, you can't say it by mouth, of course, I still demonstrate it myself, my apprentice can watch it with my own eyes, this is exposed to it, and I can learn it. However, my apprentice's legs and feet are not too convenient, so the old man thought if I could trouble the little brother to go back and talk to your master, and see if I could find a way to bring my apprentice with me. ”

The big man looked at Ah Zheng with an embarrassed face, and said: "When I came here, I didn't hear that you had any apprentices, and I can't be the master of what you said, so you wait a little longer, and then talk back to my master when I go back." ”

After speaking, without waiting for Li Laohan to reply, he turned around and strode towards the way he came, Xu was not very happy, the two of them looked at the big man who had walked away, and they could still hear him whispering.

"Hey, I said, old man, what kind of crazy are you smoking today?" Ah Zheng, who was sitting on the edge of the bed kang and dangling his legs leisurely, asked: "If this were put on weekdays, you would rather leave with others immediately, right? Why do you have to use me as a pretense today? Is there something bad in your heart? If you want to calculate others, you can't do it?"

Listening to Ah Zheng's ridicule, Li Laohan was not annoyed, he still smiled and said: "Don't you know who your master and I are? On weekdays, I am a chivalrous man who sees unevenness on the road and draws a sword to help him, how can he calculate others? Besides, have you forgotten your name? Just from the name I gave you, you should be able to see that your master and I are a person full of integrity in my heart, a person with high morals, and a person who is far away from ······."

"Alright, alright. Before the old man could finish speaking, Ah Zheng interrupted him and asked, "Master, are you sure you named me Ah Zheng, not because of my looks?"

"Ahem······" Li Laohan cleared his throat, sighed with regret, and said: "Okay, I think you have been in this house for half a year, and you have never gone out, and I thought that I could take this opportunity to take you out to relax, since you don't want to accept the teacher's intentions, then when that person comes back, I will follow alone." ”

"You haven't seen the way the man left just now, I don't think it's certain that people won't come back. ”

"You don't know what you can do as a teacher, I'm sure that the person just now will definitely come again. ”

Li Laohan looked confident.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for a voice urging others to hurry: "Hurry up, go faster, go faster." ”

Listening to a noisy footstep that seemed to have stopped in his yard, Li Laohan raised his eyebrows at Ah Zheng, who was sitting on the bed kang, and the meaning was quite obvious: You see what I said is right.

Ah Zheng was still a little surprised by this, and at this moment, he saw the people in the courtyard shouting: "Master Li, I have brought all the people, and now you and your apprentice can go to the house with me." ”

Hearing this, Li Laohan walked out of the house and saw five people standing in his yard, the leader was still the big man before, and outside the courtyard gate, a sedan chair was parked.

As soon as he saw Li Laohan coming out of the house, the big man raised his arm to wipe the sweat on his head, and said with a smile on his face: "According to your old instructions, I went back and told my master, and the master asked me to take the family's sedan chair and carry the sedan chair that the master usually sits in to pick you up and your apprentice." Look, can you come with me to the house this time?"

"Yes, yes. Li Laohan replied with a smile on his face, looked back at Ah Zheng and said, "Today, as a teacher, I will take you out to see the world." ”

After speaking, regardless of Ah Zheng's reluctant expression, he beckoned the big man in the courtyard into the house, helped him out of the house, and walked outside the door to get into the sedan chair.

In the shouting of the big man, the four sedan chair men carried Ah Zheng, Li Laohan followed on the left side of the sedan chair, and a group of seven people went on the road.

Sitting in the swaying sedan chair, it was really boring, Ah Zheng opened the sedan curtain on the left side, and whispered to Li Laohan outside the sedan chair: "Hey, Master, where are we going?"

"Do you know which is the richest and most powerful in this town of joy?"

"I remember hearing you talk about it all the time, it seems to be the Liu family. ”

Li Laohan nodded, his eyes slanted towards the big man walking in front of the sedan chair, and said: "That's right, it's the Liu family, the one walking in front at this time is the outer family of the Liu Mansion, who often walks around outside on weekdays, passing some things in the Liu family's inner house, running errands on the street or something." The place we are going to today is the Liu family. ”

Hearing the master say this, the people in the sedan chair were even more puzzled, it is said that the Liu family is rich and powerful, Ah Zheng really can't figure it out, what is there in the Liu family that is not good for others, and he has to send people to run back and forth twice, so he has to invite them to come to the door with two masters and apprentices?

I really couldn't hold back the doubts in my heart, so Ah Zheng opened his mouth and asked, "Master, do you know what this Liu family is asking us to do?"

Hearing this, Li Laohan twisted his beard and smiled, and asked in a boastful tone: "Fool, do you know what you do as a teacher?"

For this question, Ah Zheng really has some ideas of his own, he only knows that his master goes home drunk every day, although he doesn't know what work he is doing outside, but he can still see that his master is not short of money.

He shook his head honestly.

"Then do you know what the 'Heavenly Master' does?"

Ah Zheng pondered for a long time, and then said, "Dancing God." ”

"What kind of dancing god?!"

Hearing this, Li Laohan was furious, if it weren't for the sedan chair, Ah Zheng was worried that the master would slap his head.

"Let me tell you, stinky boy, the Heavenly Master is a profession that deserves people's respect, you must know how many unbelievable events in this world need a Heavenly Master to give an answer, and how many people's fragile hearts need Heavenly Master to give comfort. Do you think that the things that the teacher just said, can a great dancer do it?"

As soon as Ah Zheng was about to nod, Li Laohan straightened his chest, and that boastful look appeared on his face again, and continued to twist the poor few whiskers on his chin, and then said: "And your master and I are a Heavenly Master, and we are also the most respected and loved Heavenly Master in this Joy Town. ”

"Then can I ask, how many Heavenly Masters are there in our Joy Town?"

"I'm the only one. ”

As soon as Master's answer came out, Ah Zheng instantly lowered the curtain of the sedan chair.

His attitude provoked Li Laohan outside the sedan chair to scold again. In this regard, Ah Zheng in the sedan car has long been accustomed to it, he is deaf, and even squints and squints to nap comfortably in the sedan chair.

Li Laohan's home was not far from Liufu, and seeing that he was about to arrive in front of him, the big man who was walking in front of the sedan chair and leading the way listened to the noisy two masters and apprentices behind him, and finally stopped at this time, so he turned around and said to Li Laohan with a smile: "Master Li, let's get to the ground." ”

Li Laohan was fighting with his apprentice, but when he heard this, he remembered today's business, and hurriedly collected his thoughts, raised his hand and straightened the shabby clothes on his body, and nodded in response.

Standing at the door of Liufu, the family saw the sedan chair coming from a distance, and a person rushed inward to report the news, and when the sedan chair stopped outside the gate of Liufu, Master Liu had already stood at the door with the support of two personal rings.

"Master Li Tianshi is unharmed, he is very hopeful. ”

Listening to Master Liu's words, people who don't know the truth are also old friends who have been away from him for many days. When he looked at a young man with inconvenient legs and feet but a righteous face coming out of the sedan chair, he knew in his heart that this should be the first time he sent his family to call Li Laohan, and Li Laohan pushed the apprentice who had to be brought together, and Master Liu politely arched his hand towards the young man, and turned his head to ask Li Laohan: "I don't know who this young man is?"

I saw that Li Laohan was not humble, and replied generously: "This is my apprentice of the old man, with my surname, and my name is Ah Zheng." ”

"Oh, it turned out to be Master Ah Zheng. ”

As he spoke, Master Liu looked at Ah Zheng for the first time, and bowed to him again.

Just like that, they came and went, and the guest of honor entered the gate of Liufu.

It is said that this Liufu is worthy of being the premier rich and noble family in Xile Town, and the pavilions and pavilions in the courtyard, the garden rockery do not need to be detailed, just say that the master and apprentice followed Master Liu into the middle hall of the outer house, and the guest of honor let him sit down, and there were mermaids who entered, and laid tea and snacks in front of each person's table.

Master Liu was still the polite appearance before, and he didn't say much, just asked the master and apprentice to have tea and snacks, and he had been concerned about Ah Zheng, who had inconvenient legs and feet, but he didn't mention what the purpose of calling him here was.

The tea has been added three times, and even the snacks on the table have been changed twice, and in the end, Li Laohan couldn't hold his breath and asked: "I don't know if Mr. Liu called my master and apprentice over today, what is the so-called matter?"

Master Liu waved his hand with a smile, and then said, "The two Heavenly Master and apprentice don't need to worry, you can have another cup of tea." ”

Seeing Master Liu like this, the master and apprentice looked at each other, and they both looked puzzled. Li Laohan put down the teacup in his hand, and said anxiously: "We have enough tea and snacks, if Mr. Liu has nothing to do, then it is inconvenient for my master and apprentice to disturb, it is better to leave here." ”

After saying that, he was about to get up, but Master Liu panicked, he quickly put down the teacup in his hand, got up and arched his hand to the master and apprentice, and said: "Heavenly Master stays, I can't hide it, the old man has something to trouble the two of you today." ”

"In this case, I hope that Mr. Liu can give a clear word, if we can really use the place of my master and apprentice, we will definitely not refuse, and we will not live up to Mr. Liu's hospitality. ”

After muttering for a while, Master Liu said: "This is a later story, but seeing that it is noon, I have instructed the kitchen to prepare a table of banquets, let's wait until lunch." ”

Seeing that Master Liu didn't know what they were calling them for, and didn't let the two go back, they thought about it, thinking that there was something unspeakable about this Master Liu, and it was difficult to be gracious, so the master and apprentice thought about waiting until after lunch.

The three of them sat in the middle hall and talked again, and a subordinate came in to report that the banquet had been set up, and the master and the guests were invited to sit down, and the three of them put down the teacup in their hands, and a subordinate carried Ah Zheng out of the middle hall and entered the room next to it.

But seeing that there was indeed a list of good wine and food on the table in the middle of the room, the three of them made an appointment to enter the table, and the guest of honor was polite again, and each picked up his chopsticks.

"Wait a minute!"

Suddenly, Li Laohan shouted, and the other two people were stunned on the spot.

I saw Li Laohan put down the chopsticks in his hand, turned his head and took out a stained gourd from behind his waist, he raised the gourd in front of Ah Zheng's eyes, and said solemnly: "Before eating, you still drink today's medicine first." ”

Ah Zheng was stunned for a while, put down the chopsticks in his hand a little helplessly, reached out and took the gourd handed over by the master, staring at the suspicious stains on the gourd, as if thinking about where to drink it.

"Don't be surprised Mr. Liu, my apprentice is weak, and he relies on this potion to maintain himself on weekdays. ”

Master Liu smiled and said: "It's not strange, it's not strange, it's just that I don't know what disease the disciples suffer from, and what kind of medicine do they take on weekdays? Although Liu's family is thin, there are still some herbs in this house, and if it is useful, the Heavenly Master can open his mouth." ”

"Not really. Li Laohan waved his hand again and again, not explaining what kind of illness his apprentice had, but just turned his head to look at Ah Zheng with a concerned face, and asked, "When you were eating tea just now, did you eat a snack?"

Ah Zheng shook his head.

Then he asked, "Have you ever had tea?"

Ah Zheng shook his head again, glanced at Master Liu with some embarrassment, and said: "I smelled the fragrance of tea and snacks, but as soon as I brought the tea bowl to my mouth, I had a feeling of nausea, so I didn't drink the tea." ”

Li Laohan relieved his mind at this time, he breathed a long sigh of relief, and said: "That's good, that's good, it's also because of the teacher's carelessness, I forgot to remind you of this before, you can't touch these things during the period of drinking medicine." ”

Ah Zheng looked at the gourd in his hand, then at the table full of food, and nodded.

Master Liu, who said this, was suspicious, and it was inconvenient to ask clearly, so he said: "Since the disciples can't eat these mundane things, the master can order something that can be eaten, so I can let the cook prepare it." ”

"There's no need to bother with this, I'm an unblessed apprentice who just drinks medicine, it's not that the old man is polite, it's just that he can't get some food yet. Leave him alone, we can just use the food and drinks for ourselves. ”

Seeing that the master said this, Master Liu didn't want to ask too much, so he had to raise his chopsticks and eat by himself.

The wine is good wine, the food is good food, but I just thought that there might be something to be busy in the afternoon, Li Laohan, a person who must drink a good drink when he sees wine on weekdays, didn't drink a few glasses today.

After the wine and food were full, Master Liu ordered the remnants of the table to be removed, and the two of them were led to the middle hall again, and then served tea and snacks, just talking to Li Laohan about family routines, asking about the harvest in a few years and other things.

Li Laohan's master and apprentice didn't understand the intention of this old man Liu, but seeing that he just didn't know the purpose of inviting them to come, he could only follow the master and follow Master Liu to chat.

After a cup of tea, Master Liu got up and said: "This noon is long, the old man called the two to the house early, and sat with me for half a day, thinking that the two of them are also tired, I have ordered to go down, and specially prepared a guest room for the two, and the two of them can go and rest for a while." ”

The master and apprentice really couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in this old man Liu's gourd, but there was food and drink here, and Li Laohan was not in a hurry, thinking that when the time was ripe, he should let them know, so he would naturally tell them.

In this way, the master and apprentice got up and thanked the host for his kindness, and walked to the guest room with the people of the family.

When they arrived in the room, after everyone had left, Ah Zheng asked, "Master, this Master Liu shouldn't have really encountered anything, right?"

"Nonsense, if you don't encounter something, how can you invite the Heavenly Master to come to the door. ”

"Of course, I know this. Ah Zheng cleared his throat and continued, "I'm not actually worried about this, I'm mainly worried about you, Master." ”

"Worry about me, worry about me, what?"

"You said that among the people who usually invite you to the door, no matter what happens, it shouldn't be so difficult, right? You see that this is another invitation to eat and drink, and now let us stay, this is not a trivial matter for his Liu family. Ah Zheng paused, and then said, "Are you really sure that you can handle the affairs of Old Man Liu's house?"

After saying this, Li Laohan's heart couldn't help but beat a drum, and he couldn't help frowning sadly sitting on the stool in that room.

Looking at the master's sad appearance, Ah Zheng secretly smiled, slowly moved to the edge of the bed and sat down with his hands on the objects in the room, and said with a long sigh······ Somehow, after drinking that medicine, I was really tired. Hey, Master, I'll just lie down and rest for a while. ”

As if he hadn't heard it at all, Old Man Li still sat on the stool with a frown.

Ah Zheng looked at the master's appearance and secretly smiled again, and lay down on the soft couch covered with satin futon and took a nap.

In a daze, I don't know how much time has passed, but I only heard someone talking in my ear, and then the voice of the master calling him up: "Ah Zheng Ah Zheng, wake up, it's night." ”

"Huh?"

Ah Zheng rubbed his eyes and sat up from the bed, raised his eyes to look out the window, and sure enough, he saw that it was already dark.

"Master, are we going back?"

"Not really. Li Laohan replied, "It was Master Liu who told us to go to dinner." ”

"Dinner?" Ah Zheng thought to himself, Master didn't let me eat anything else, why did he still call himself when it was time to eat? No way, although he was reluctant in his heart, he still obediently got out of bed, and was carried by two servants of the Liu family, and walked with Master to the room where he ate at noon.

When I came to the door of the room, I saw that there was a table of good wine and food on the table in the middle of the room, and Master Liu was already sitting in the main seat, and when he saw their master and apprentice, he immediately stood up and gave in to the two of them.

Li Laohan was not polite, he arched his hand slightly like Master Liu, and took his apprentice into the door, walked to the table and sat down.

There was nothing to say during the banquet, and after the wine and food were full, it was the remnants of the table, and Master Liu said: "I can't hide it, this time someone Liu invited the Heavenly Master to come over, and he asked for something." ”

It seems that this old man Liu is finally going to say his purpose, and as soon as the master and apprentice heard this, they immediately came to their senses and listened carefully to him.

Who knew that the old man Liu sighed with a sad face for a while, and then stopped talking.

Li Laohan thought for a while, knowing that he was waiting for him to express himself, so he cleared his throat, straightened his chest, and said: "Mr. Liu, but it doesn't hurt to say it directly, although I Li is not very capable, but today I have been treated by you so much, no matter what you always ask for, Li can guarantee that he will do his best." ”

"Okay!" Master Liu slapped the table and said with a smile: "The old man can get the sentence 'do his best' from the Heavenly Master, and he is already a little relieved. ”

After saying this, Master Liu looked around at the servants and housekeepers outside the door and beside him, leaned his head in front of Li Laohan, lowered his voice and said: "It's just that what the old man is going to say next can't be known to outsiders, and I ask the two of you to enter the inner hall with me, and I will explain the matter to the two of you in detail." ”

As the only two people with the surname of the Liu family, you look at me, I look at you, so I had to follow Master Liu, who got up and walked towards the inner house, out of the room of the outer house, and towards the inner room.
