Next to the third street corner in the east of the town, this is the place where Ah Gan looked at it for a long time before he decided to go. This old man who is in charge of wine is a character in the town who talks and laughs. It's called a hunchbacked old man. Like this kind of obscure leisure place, there will not be a few people coming, all of them are some old customers, or guests who are not easy to show up.

The wine is also brewed by himself, and besides, I have heard others tell Ah Gan that the wine tastes very strong.

It's very thick, and this is a very greedy news.

In just a few months, the wine here can retain the old man who is like a fairy wind, as well as the guests who are dressed similarly.

The young man who walked the horse, dressed in a wind robe, covered his face, said exotic words, and asked the old man to pack the wine in his water belt, and there was no trace of shackles on the handle of his feet.

He looked around carefully, paid the money and didn't say much.

"I don't know, this old man is very strange, and no one wants to provoke him, some people come to ask for wine and drink, and some people don't want him to try it, and they don't accept money. ”

"What you said is true?" Li Shuishan was a little unconvinced, and when the two of them approached with excitement, they saw a scene of a woman dressed in good fortune drinking here.

Whether they heard or not, the woman was talking to the old man, and the two of them came.

The hunchbacked old man watched them coming, not caring how old they were, just asking them if they were drinking, Li Shuishan had drunk wine after all, so he naturally experienced the taste of wine. Nodding in agreement.

The old man had no intention of stopping them, and watched as the two children were dressed like babies who had not studied.

"You are not big or small, my wine is to collect money for you, I'm afraid you can't afford to drink it. What made Li Shuishan curious was this price, could it be that he deliberately saw that we were bullying us and making us drink, so as to make an unreasonable big deal.

It always felt a little strange that the hunchbacked old man took out a wooden spoon from the dark vat here and pointed it in front of the two of them, just picking up the wine as if he were straining it.

The wine sparkled under the oil lamp at night, and his palms, which were like old tree roots, and his nails could pierce into flesh and blood, waited quietly for the wine in the bowl to have rice grains on the bottom, and it looked very pure. It was the girl who held the wine bowl that paced over with small steps after drinking the wine in her bowl. This shop was opened a long time ago, but Li Shuishan doesn't go down the mountain often, and even if he goes down the mountain, he won't notice the one around the corner.

Seeing that she picked up the wine bowl, took a sip at Ah Gan, and said sarcastically, "My father's wine is not ordinary wine, if you dare to drink it like me, you won't be charged this money." ”

Xiao Nizi, who spoke, held the bowl and poured the wine into her stomach, for fear that they would see what Ni Duan was, and she was in a hurry. This is a trick, I have long heard that there is a boy from Ah Gan in a family next to the forest, and he wandered around the street corner a few times. Eight or nine are not far from ten, stealing the guests who were going to leave the last time they were drinking.

This big business must be untrustworthy for a family of two under the wine shed, and people who go south and north. But this time, I watched the two sneakily come and drink openly. This is a bit of a provocation to the idea that she has studied in a private school, and she will try to talk about it.

The first one who hesitated to get the wine was Li Shuishan, but the palm he stretched out shook it back. I don't believe that this Da Nizi is a good person, although she is dressed plainly, her makeup is simple, and she is extremely elegant and has a trace of everyone's beautiful temperament, but the upturned corners of her mouth make his heart flutter and pretend to agree.

Ah Gan snatched the wine bowl and drank it vigorously.

Smirked, "Good wine." ”

Xiao Nizi never thought that this seemingly thin teenager would snatch the wine from his hand.

"Agan. What are you going to do?" the little girl blamed him, angrily returning to her desk.

She didn't want Ah Gan to drink it, so she called his name directly, and forgot about him stealing wine, which made Li Shuishan quite ugly, and the wine looked at Ah Gan's face flushed, and he didn't know what to say.

I thought to myself.

This little girl doesn't know where she comes from, and she doesn't look like a shrew and a girl, and she doesn't have a particularly weird temperament. Why target yourself.

There was no more wine on her table.

The hunchbacked old man saw that no one came to drink anymore, so he went into the house alone, and the wine bowl on the table was waiting for the little girl to clean up. Ah Gan lay on the table and fell asleep. Looking at the bowl of wine handed over, he swallowed and foamed. I never thought there would be such a difficult woman.

It's not that it looks like it's bold, but fortunately, Li Shuishan has a good temper. But he hadn't experienced looking at a woman at the same time for more than a breath, and he was still timid.

The wine stammered to Xiao Nizi and said, "Okay...... Say..... Out of your ...... Daimyo?"

"Yinwan. ”

"Last name?"

"Phoenix"

The woman's temper was better, and she couldn't see how beautiful she was in the night, just listening to her voice or taking a sip of wine. He smiled shyly.

She didn't force her drink to finish any more.

The first time he wandered in his heart about the heater, it was comfortable for him to make a humming sound, he gritted his teeth in fear, he must not care about these strange movements, but his heart was still afraid to realize that he had been fooled.

He also said, "To do things, in the end, he is the material for the head, but I am holding a small piece of scrap and watching the moonlight quietly." ”

"Feng Yinwan, let's go first. ”

dragged Ah Gan like this and went back.

She didn't ask Li Shuishan's name, and lowered her head to clean up the wine bowl there.

Drunk, he slept like a fragrant pig, lying on the rotten and dusty wooden bed, he held Li Shuishan's arm, and pulled tightly, as if exerting all his strength.

Ah Gan said to him.

He hadn't slept like this in a long time, he was so hot. When he can take his mother to the outside world, he will no longer do the tiring work he does not want to do.

In fact, he knew it in his heart. This is the truth in Ah Gan's heart. It's just that I don't understand that Li Shuishan is a child that no one loves. If you see Ah Gan's mother, sleeping in bed, and seeing Ah Gan in the dark world, she comes back quietly.

"Ahh ”

She screamed softly, not knowing when he had run out and come back so late. Li Shuishan told him that he was asleep and that he was going back.

Her mother was like a miser, prostrate on the bed, touching Ah Gan's face, but she felt hot, and she screamed.

"Burned?"

"Nope. He just did what he wanted. ”

Li Shuishan also advised her not to pay much attention and let him sleep quietly.

Taking advantage of the night, he ran under the locust tree, staring at the moon, looking at the chill that was getting rounder and rounder, but the chill came up. Blowing a small whistle, he didn't summon any critters to accompany him.

"This is the first one. ”

He deeply felt the loneliness of being accompanied by someone, as well as the little girl who was infiltrating, and thought to himself, "Ah Gan, being favored by that woman, it seems that I care about it very much, and I am a superfluous person." I'm careful next time I don't want to be pointed out by him again, so I deliberately target. ”

"If someone holds on to my shortcomings and punches and kicks me, I'm not a useless person. I've read all these years in vain. ”

When I opened my sharp eyes, I remembered the scroll given by the storyteller, and read one of the "Grass Lanterns". tells the story of a person who kills a fierce beast with ease, and then the disciple holds the Dao pot and waters it every day, wanting to turn into a seedling grass one day. But the nectar fell from the sky, and the master's knee-knee practice created a spiritual treasure, a famous soil.

It can esterify the human skin and refine its body bones.

The matter of the Tao and the earth can be regarded as a change in the sky. attracted many Taoist priests to chase and kill. This soil grows seedlings and grass. When this seedling grass becomes a half-knee-long plant, it will become a demon.

Intelligent, clever, and often takes on human form. As this little demon, he is often affected by thunder and lightning. This Taoist disciple turned it into a thought in his heart, and eventually became a Taoist like a master.

The little demon also became his wife, and waited in Taowa all the year round. This place is sealed as a forbidden place for Taoism, and the Taoist has a sword called a sealed pen.

Hang on the branches of the peach tree and wait until autumn arrives.

The sword dances in the wind, cutting off the wind, cutting off the sorrow, cutting off any jealous evil.

At this point, he exhaled.

"It's real and moving," in fact, what he wanted to say in his heart was the temperature of the night, which was really refreshing, looking at the disc in the distance, the moon would be more mellow on the fifteenth day of tomorrow.

The crow on the wall, flying up, babbling away.

He took three sips and went up the mountain without turning his head.

The moon on this mountain is a little frighteningly round, and it hangs tightly in the air.

............

After living in this few years, no one is willing to enjoy the scenery and go up the mountain, and his words are a little boring. In order to exercise, Ma Bo would climb up to talk to him, and now he was also taken away by his stupid son.

Striding a few steps, there were a few faint noises in the distance.

Meow~

"Is this a flower cat?" he watched as the cat hurried over and stared at him. Follow him and run back to his place as fast as he can.

The stones in the distance were exceptionally slippery, and a few drops of water fell here like the saliva of a tiger wolf. A seditious bunch of inflamed curls that were knocked over in the distance, echoed in the wind.

This fragrant mountain seems to be a place with historical stories, but no one talks about it in detail. Hearing the sound of footsteps in the distance, Li Shuishan's heart boiled, and the scenes of demons he had heard appeared in his heart.

After swallowing and spitting, he stepped away as fast as he could.

There is only himself living on the mountain, but he has not noticed it in the past few years. Except that the buttocks were slightly cool that day, as if they were being targeted by some animal. Anyway, no monster appeared to devour itself.

Besides, he comforted himself and poured the rice on the place that resembled the Rat Emperor, which was not like receiving this blessing of gratitude.

Thinking about it, he went back to his hut. Looking at the darkness in the stone cave, he naturally wanted to be the first to look at his only remaining scroll.

"I also gave Jiang Lao a few copies of "Convex Deer", "Origin", and "The Bearer". There are also a few classic books with the name of a great power. If I can't stand it, then put it away and take it out when I want to go crazy one day. ”

He blamed himself in his heart, "Could it be that I just failed my desire to pursue the exam and became a useless person who was discouraged by himself." I said I read a lot of books, but I didn't see any useful knowledge. It's just one fantasy after another about the strange, the Word's narrative. ”

"So what's the point of me going crazy? To make a living for my own survival, to steal other people's skills, to be despised. Or just looking at the beautiful owners of other people, what attract me to the characteristics that make me crazy and obsessed. ”

"I'm not as good as that, I look stupid, thin but not weak, what do I seem?" he pondered in the dark cave, seemingly useless, as he turned and walked out of the cave.

Listening to the whirring wind on the mountain, "I have never seen my mother's appearance, and I don't know if I still have family affection, that light, I have never felt it, if that Ah Gan is willing, I want to be the pillar." ”

The cat barked, and it was already hungry.

Tonight, Li Shuishan, who was eating wine, did not pause at all, and the wine strengthened the bears' guts.

There was a phantom figure floating in front of him, his eyes widened and he sighed, and said in horror: "This is not the first time I have seen you. ”

The figure swayed from side to side beside Li Shuishan, turning into a cloud of smoke, slipping past his fingertips and returning again. Squeezed his palm and pointed it at Li Shuishan's palm. I just can't see the fingerprints on his hands clearly, and the facial features on his smooth face, it's a black shadow.

He felt that Li Shuishan had been staring at him, like a ghost fire in the night. He left and turned back, staring at his big head. Li Shuishan pondered carefully and said, "Can you see why I'm here?"

The figure nodded, pointed to a bare stone block at the top of the mountain, and nodded at Li Shuishan's finger, and finally he floated.

Li Shuishan nodded and said meaningfully, "You want me to go and see the things on this mountain." ”

He took a deep breath, turned and put on his robe, and stepped down as he stepped onto the top of a stone.

The temperature on this halfway up the mountain was just right, and the wind blew and felt a little cool, and goosebumps appeared on his body every time he climbed a rock. The temperature at the top of the mountain is exactly the same as the temperature at the bottom of the mountain. There are many green pine vines hanging down from the trees, just like seeing the ancient people in white robes who gather medicine, carrying baskets on the cliff face in search of herbs that can be taken to cure diseases.

He dropped the stalk of grass he was holding in his hand and headed straight up the mountain.

He didn't climb the peak of Xiangshan, even during the day, he wasn't so bold, he just relied on the strength of the wine in his heart to climb three or four boulders. One piece is more than one meter high, and the remaining two pieces are also close to three meters, which is an extremely difficult thing for an adult and skilled mountain climber, and under this moonlit night, Li Shuishan looks particularly calm.

"There's one more piece. ”

When he saw the stone above her head that covered the entire mountain, the wine in his heart dissipated, and he forgot that he was still halfway up the mountain. On one side is a hard pinnacle, and on the other side is dangling. He took a bite of his spit and scolded himself fiercely: "How could I have thought of doing such a stupid thing." ”

Above him, the figure floated, shivering in the moonlit night, a little afraid of the stones above him, and he raised his hand to continue pointing. Li Shuishan frowned, retreated in his heart, and muttered: "If I pretend that I haven't seen this thing, I will give up, but why is this thing always entangled." ”

He cursed in his mouth, "What the hell are you that made me climb here." ”

The black figure knelt on the ground, kowtowed three times, and kept begging for this Li Shuishan. He was also speechless when he looked at the large boulder above his head, and when his palm touched the boulder, a faint echo came from above. This echo did not come directly from the stones, but connected the whole fragrant mountain, from the top of the mountain to the boulder, into the mountain, and gushing out of the mountain to his eardrums. Li Shuishan woke up and said, "Could it be that this mountain is empty?"

He gently touched the stone wall beside him, where there were still the feces of these animals, which had been ground by the wind and rain, and the useless substances remained. He kicked the corner of the stone wall, revealing a very hollow crevice, and the sound of water could be heard from inside. There was no light in it, but at the moment when the gap was revealed.

The kneeling black figure rose to its feet and melted into the darkness of the gap.
