Chapter 3: The Boring Man
Before the dawn came, the sky was still dark, and a faint mist shrouded this uninhabited barren mountain range, and the combination of night and fog gave this place a sense of mystery that was both real and illusory. At this time, many small animals have already woken up and started to prepare for the day's work, such as small birds, some standing on the branches of trees singing, some going out in groups to forage for food, and some flying comfortably in the air. There are a variety of other small animals as well. In the early morning of spring, the vibrant atmosphere is so exciting.
Today, Mother Tiger wakes up very early. It's all because of those children, who were in the nest early in the morning shouting for their mother to take them out to play, and the tiger mother could only helplessly cling to these little naughty. The sky outside was still gray, and the tiger mother first walked out of the nest and looked left and right, and only after seeing the surrounding situation clearly did she cordially beckon the children to come out.
Watching the children come out of the nest one by one, the tiger mother's eyes were full of mother's unique love. It stuck out its tongue and licked the head of one of the tiger cubs as if to freshen it. Suddenly, the tiger mother's heart tightened, her whole body trembled, and her eyes opened as if she was in some danger. It hurriedly drove the children back to the nest, but really didn't want to go back to the nest, so it bit its neck and forcibly "lifted" the child back to the nest.
The same is true of other small animals, birds flying in the sky, squirrels walking in trees, wild boars running on the ground, fish swimming in the water...... They all quickly returned to their nests, and those who did not have time to go back flew away or ran away as if they were trying to hide from something.
At the foot of the mountain, a guy named Hu Yanyu was walking up the mountain with a huge thing on his back. He was about twenty years old, not short at all, about 180 cm in size, his arms were long and thick, and his muscles bulged one by one, making him look quite strong and strong. He has short hair, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and is dressed in coarse linen like a rammer. However, it looks quite honest. Besides, the big guy behind him was wrapped in a white cloth, which was at least two or three times larger than Hu Yanyu's figure, but he didn't seem to feel any weight, and kept a certain rhythm and walked step by step. The most surprising thing is not that he has great strength, but that his whole body exudes an aura that makes people feel very uncomfortable when they see it, which makes people shudder and avoid it.
Hu Yanyu walked on the artificially paved steps, and the small flowers and grasses on both sides of the road instantly bowed their heads and withered, and the leaves on the verdant and dense trees began to yellow and fall...... What is the aura on his body? It is terrifying to have such an earth-shattering ability.
About fifteen miles from the foot of the mountain, there is a manor, but other than that, there is no one in this place for a hundred miles. There lived a housekeeper, a cook, a scholar, a gambler, a thief, and a braggart king, plus Hu Yanyu and a little girl, a total of eight people.
Hu Yanyu is the owner of this manor, but he can't see the end of the dragon, and all the housework is handled by the housekeeper. The housekeeper is a mother, her name is Jiang Ruorou, don't think she is a beauty because of her name, she is a fat woman in her forties. It's just that there is a light in her eyes that doesn't match her age, which makes the whole person look energetic and energetic. In addition to taking care of the housework, she will also go to the kitchen to stir-fry, and if the man doesn't think she's fat, marrying her is also a blessing.
Today, Hu Yanyu habitually plays missing again. The breakfast cooked by the "beauty" butler, he didn't know how many times he missed it.
Although the owner's family does not have such a mouthful, but good things are always appreciated, this fan who is not afraid of fat is named Baili Piaoxiang, a cook, and the only man in the manor who can match the "beauty" housekeeper with his figure.
"Fatty, hurry up. Oops! Take so much at once, say you can't take it, you still don't believe it. The fat woman said a little angrily: "It's good for you to waste the old lady's hard work!"
Guess what he does? I saw a fat man with a plate on his head, a plate in his mouth, and two plates in each hand, walking from the kitchen to the dining room like acrobatics.
When the fat woman helped him take down the plate and put it on the table, the fat man said: "Daughter-in-law, there is nothing difficult in the world, only afraid of people with hearts, didn't I do it?" The fat woman couldn't adapt to his frivolity, and said with a disgusted face: "Dead fat man, who is your daughter-in-law, don't scream early in the morning, don't wake up and go back to the nest to sleep." ”
"Ruorou, I swore that I would not let people call me 'fat', and whoever called me had to be anxious with him. It's just you, you can call me anything. Baili Piaoxiang is an old man about fifty years old, I didn't expect him to be so "hardworking" for his love at such an age, which is really rare.
NOT LONG AFTER, ANOTHER MAN WALKED INTO THE DINING ROOM, ONLY TO HEAR HIM SAY: "WHAT KIND OF SPEAR ARE YOU PLAYING WITH EARLY IN THE MORNING?" THIS PERSON'S NAME IS BO YONG, AND HE IS ABOUT THE SAME AGE AS THE FAT COOK, BUT HE IS A LITTLE SHORTER THAN HIM, ABOUT 160CM, AND HIS APPEARANCE IS NOT GOOD. Usually, he talks the most and brags the most, and he may be a living treasure when he is bored. It's just that he doesn't like much in this manor, and few people will pay attention to him.
"Who bullied my sister Rou?" followed Bo Yong out of a "young and beautiful" woman, her name is Yan Qingqing, she is about twenty or thirty years old, 170CM tall, and her figure is very good. Unfortunately, there was a scar on her left cheek from the corner of her eye to her mouth, which made her otherwise good look miserable, so she always wore a veil that she would not take off even when eating. She has the best relationship with Jiang Ruorou, Sister Rou is long all day long, and Sister Rou screams shortly. This time, when she heard the dwarf say that she was not Sister Rou, she got up in a hurry and walked to the dining table angrily, and as soon as she raised her legs, she stepped on an empty chair, and a white and smooth leg was immediately exposed. She said, "Who??" she almost shouted the word. Before she could continue, the dwarf confessed, and said, "Sister, I was wrong, you spare me." "The short man Bo Yong's attitude is very good, he takes the initiative to admit his mistakes, even if he doesn't give Yan Qingqing face, he has to give "white, tender and smooth" face, right?
Jiang Ruorou said: "When I say sister, it's just a joke, you don't have to be serious." Baili Piaoxiang was also busy playing the round, he said: "Your sister Rou is right......" Before he finished speaking, he was grabbed by Yan Qingqing and said: "This girl is most unaccustomed to men bullying women, why are you rushing at me, who is afraid of whom?" If it weren't for the scar on her face, she would have been very cute at this time.
Yan Qingqing rolled up her sleeves as she spoke.....
There are two adult women in the manor, one is unsightly fat, and the other is in good shape, but unfortunately there is a scar on his face, and he is extremely spicy. You can imagine the days when the men lived here.
The sun slowly shone on the earth, and everyone in the manor dining room was basically there except for Hu Yanyu and the little girl.
The scholar's name is Lu Xiaoguo, a talented talent. At the age of about thirty, he looks like he is not old and decrepit, depressed and poor, not that his appearance is not good-looking, strictly speaking, his appearance is finally correct, and his height of more than 170CM looks quite pleasing to the eye. However, his listless appearance all day long makes people look annoying.
The gambler's name is a bit funny, his name is Pei Zhao. You say that his surname is not good, but he wants to be surnamed Pei, what is not good for his hobbies, but he likes to gamble. If his father used the word "money" to name him at the beginning, and he was so good at gambling, wouldn't he be laughable and generous. He was about forty years old, almost the same height as a fat cook, with a sharp beak and a little beard, and a nasty appearance, and the villain did not introduce much.
At this point, all six people in the manor have been introduced, and it's time to get down to business.
A large white eagle hovered in the air for a moment before landing in the courtyard of the manor. Bo Yong and Pei Zhao, who were doing a good thing, hurriedly ran over, only to see a bamboo tube tied to a rope around Diao'er's neck, as if carrying a letter, so they took the bamboo tube off and took it to the dining room.
Pei Zhao shook the bamboo tube in front of everyone, and said: "Brothers, this white eagle has been bringing letters here for three years, and we haven't seen the head of the house return once, so it's better to ...... this time" The implication is to open it and peek, what kind of letter is this.
Yan Qingqing said: "Who is your brother!
"Qingqing girl, do you want to bet on the letter in this bamboo tube, is it a beautiful girl like you......" Before the words were finished, the scholar Lu Xiaoguo shook his head, and rushed to say seriously, "Don't look at indecent things, don't ...... indecent people" Pei Zhao immediately scolded: "Get out! Get out! Get out! ”
Bo Yong echoed and said, "Why don't you just take a look, and it won't lose a piece of meat." ”
Jiang Ruorou said: "That's the letter of the master, you can read it if you like." I said ugly things in the past, don't be driven away by people when the time comes, and you have to run back to the dead face, begging for this, begging for that, I can't help with this kind of thing. She was firm and resolute, not joking at all.
Baili Piaoxiang and Yan Qingqing naturally stood on Jiang Ruorou's side, and the scholar was pulled over by Pei Zhao. Pei Zhao said: "Three to three, half to half, I'll bet on this one to see if the amorous lady has a fancy for us." While he opened the bamboo tube, he shouted: "Buy it and leave it." ”
The other three people who said they wouldn't read it, they said they wouldn't read it, and when Pei Zhao pulled out a note from the bamboo tube, they all came over in unison, only to see that there were only twenty simple words on the letter:
I look forward to seeing your demeanor, teaching at any time, and waiting for good news.
Yagyu respectfully
"I thought it was the young lady, but it turned out to be a person surnamed Liu. Fortunately, there is no start, otherwise I would have lost to death. After Pei Zhao finished speaking, he spat on the ground.
The dining room was quiet for a while, and Yan Qingqing said in surprise: "Liu Sheng, could it be the sword saint Liu Tianshen who became famous more than ten years ago, and then disappeared." Her surprised expression seemed to infect the other people present, and Pei Zhao's hand holding the letter was trembling a little at this time. Baili Piaoxiang may be older and older, he calmed down the fastest, and said: "It won't be the one who can still retreat with one enemy in Wanxiao Heights." As soon as he finished saying this, the letter in Pei Zhao's hand fell to the ground.
Jiang Ruorou finally calmed down and said, "How big is our master, even the Sword Saint Liu Tianshen has found him." ”
Unexpectedly, Liu Xiaogou turned out to be the sword saint who defeated a hundred in Wanxiao Heights more than ten years ago - Liu Tianshen. For three years, he has been waiting for Hu Yanyu for three years, how boring is he? Since he is so powerful, why do he still have to make an appointment with Hu Yanyu? Could it be that this is the emptiness, loneliness and coldness that a master should have? What is the origin of this Hu Yanyu?
Suspicions surge.
