Chapter 58: The Man in the Black Robe
Hong Bo issued a ban, and Shen Yun had no scruples about hunting, and from then on, the hunting time was changed to morning. And set a rule for himself: no matter what the harvest of the day is, after noon, you must rush back.
In the first two days, Hong Bo saw that he returned home every time when the sun was in the west, and he felt sorry that he couldn't catch up with the morning, so when he made breakfast, he prepared dry food such as steamed buns, cakes, and meat pieces for him as lunch.
The wild things in the mountains are indeed more abundant. Shen Yun almost didn't have the time to return empty-handed. The meat dishes on their tables are also becoming more and more abundant: pheasants, muntjac...... Even, once, Shen Yun actually carried back a wild boar of sixty or seventy catties.
When Hong Bo saw the wild boar that couldn't die anymore, his two eyelids trembled in fright: "Brother Yun, you didn't hurt anything, did you?" Although this is a big wild boar cub that has not yet grown up, most of the wild animals are very protective of the cubs. Like this boar cub, there is usually a female boar next to it...... The ferocity of an adult wild boar is not something that can be easily stopped by three or two adult men in a group! Brother Yun is playing with his life!
Shen Yun shook his head: "Today I was lucky, so I ran into this lonely wild boar cub." I followed it for a long time, and I made sure that there were no big wild boars around, so I started. Even so, he struggled with his old nose. Well, this guy is strong, thick-skinned, and wild. He fought it for more than a dozen rounds before he succeeded. Well, he admits that if it weren't for the sharp knife in his hand, with his bare hands, he would only be able to forget about the pigs and sigh.
"It was really lucky. Hong Bo was still not at ease, pulled him, and looked at his whole body carefully. Seeing that only a few places such as arms and shoulders were scratched, and the rest were fine, I breathed a sigh of relief. However, while cleaning up the wild boar cubs, he nagged: "It can't be like this anymore." Luck is uncertain, and good luck turns bad, often in the blink of an eye. Wild boar hunting is no joke either. The wild boar is very rough and has a strong taste, which is not very tasty......"
Shen Yun didn't squeak, it was all the wind in his ears, and he was laying his hands on the side, learning how to clean up the wild boar.
His good fortune seemed to begin at this point, and from then on, he would encounter some inexplicable wild creatures, such as a mountain dog with a wounded hind leg, and a four- or five-foot-long, fat and rolling black wind snake......
Every time, he had to do his best to get it.
However, the effect is very good. His hunting experience is to flip and fight, and his skills are also swishing up. The bigger surprise is that the Vajra Quan is also practiced more smoothly. Now, when he opens his fists, he can already be like Brother Fu, with a fist style. Of course, his fist style is very weak, and he is not as good as Brother Fu at all.
As a result, Shen Yun felt that he had found a way to improve his boxing skills, and the more he fought, the more courageous he became, and he was simply obsessed with hunting.
In the blink of an eye, another two months have passed. Autumn goes to winter solstice. The mountains are getting colder and colder, and the wild animals are gradually hiding for the winter, which directly affects Shen Yun's harvest. Yi Gao was bold, and he tried to push the range of his daily hunting deeper into the mountains.
On this day, just after noon. Shen Yun hit a muntjac in a familiar forest. The wild animals of this season are the fattest time of the year. The muntjac he hit weighed about forty pounds, to say the least. Carrying the heavy wild things on his back, he returned home satisfied.
As soon as I walked out of the forest, it suddenly started to rain.
The raindrops the size of beans made the surrounding grass "rustle".
But there is still the sun in the sky!
In summer, it rains in the sun and is often a thing. However, it is winter...... Shen Yun felt incredible. His experience is that the sun and rain generally fall quickly, but for a short time. So, he decided to find a place to shelter from the rain first.
In my memory, there is a protruding stone cliff not far ahead, which is a good place to hide from the rain. Immediately, he carried the muntjac and hurriedly ran over there.
The more I ran that way, the heavier the rain became.
He's a quicker, of course.
As a result, when he ran to the stone cliff to look, he was dumbfounded—well, there were already people there!
A pale, middle-aged man in a black robe, sitting cross-legged at the bottom of a stone cliff with his eyes closed.
He had been in this area for several months, and he had never seen anyone else! Shen Yun immediately became alert.
"Boy, what are you doing standing in the rain?" Unexpectedly, the black-robed man opened his eyes, glanced at him, and spoke first, "Not yet!"
Listen to the accent, not the people in this area.
Anyway, he didn't have any money on him, nothing but a dead muntjac...... Shen Yun hesitated slightly, walked quickly to the bottom of the stone cliff, stood still in front of the black-robed man, arched his hands, and thanked: "Boy, thank you, Mr." Although the black-robed man had a sick face and looked a little down, he could see that he was an unusual person with one mouth. He couldn't help but think of the hall owner. Yes, he called him "sir".
"I have some eyesight. The black-robed man rolled his eyes at him and said with a smile, "Boy, you should thank the old man." In the past two months, the old man has given you so many wild things. ”
When Shen Yun heard this, it was as if he had been struck by a strong thunderbolt, and he was stunned on the spot.
The black-robed man did not speak again, and closed his eyes again.
Shen Yun came back to his senses and couldn't help but tremble in horror - a lonely wild boar cub, a mountain dog that had just broken a leg...... I didn't think it before, but now that I think about it, it seems that these days, the little wild thing is fine, but the big wild thing he hit is problematic.
If what the person in front of me said is true, then it means that this person has been eyeing me more than a month ago!
What the hell does he want to do!
Shen Yun tried his best to suppress the horror in his heart, and asked cautiously: "The kid is stupid, I don't know what advice Mr. has?"
"Well, you're a smart one. Only then did the black-robed man open his eyes, "I have a few questions for you." Answer truthfully, and if you dare to conceal anything, look at this stone. As he spoke, a fierce color flashed in his eyes, and he picked up a fist-sized boulder with his right hand.
"Bang!"
I saw him close his five fingers, and the stubborn stone shattered.
Warrior! I don't know how many times more powerful than Brother Fu!
Shen Yun's face suddenly turned pale. There was a chill behind him, and he couldn't help but shiver.
"The old man asks you, who taught you your Vajra Fist?" the black-robed man slapped off the ash powder in his hand calmly. It was as if he had just thrown away a ball of flour.
He actually knew about Vajra Fist! Shen Yun only felt that the cold hairs on his whole body stood up. The words of the hall owner seemed to ring in his ears again - you can't mention Vajra Fist in front of people!
But if you don't say it...... His eyes involuntarily glanced straight at the dust on the ground.
Calming down, he gritted his teeth and said, "I'm sorry, sir." Forgive the boy for not saying. ”
"Boy, have the guts!" the black-robed man teased, "You're not afraid that the old man will slap you to death?"
"I'm afraid, I'm scared to death!" Shen Yun said truthfully, "However, the kid promised me that the person who taught me boxing must not break his promise." ”
The black-robed man let out an "oh" and shook his head repeatedly: "No wonder." The old man is not a beginner in viewing your vajra boxing, and it seems that he has practiced the mental method, but he only has its form, but has not obtained its spirit. It turned out that he learned it indiscriminately, and he didn't officially enter the teacher's door. ”
As he spoke, his eyes were like torches, and he looked Shen Yunlai up and down.
For a while, Shen Yun suddenly had the illusion of being stripped naked and standing naked in front of him.
Fortunately, the black-robed man only glanced at it a few times, then withdrew his gaze, closed his eyes slightly, and said to himself, "I see." Lao Liu's family, alas, didn't escape the ......" said, two huge tears secreted from the corners of his eyes.
The hall owner's surname was Liu! He recognized the hall owner? And he also guessed that the gym had suffered a great disaster! Shen Yun was shocked again. But soon, he calmed down again: This man may be talking to me! Thinking of this, he lowered his eyes, made a blank face, and did not say anything more.
After a long time, the black-robed man let out another long sigh, slowly opened his eyes, and asked, "Boy, what's your name?"
This can be said. Shen Yun didn't want to hide it from him: "Mr. Huiyu, the boy's surname is Shen, and his single name is a cloud character." ”
"How old are you? Have you ever been officially enlightened?" The black-robed man completely changed his painting style, like an elder who was familiar with his nephew in his later life.
It's so weird! Shen Yun stiffened his head and said to them one by one: "I have reached the age of seven, and I have never been officially enlightened." ”
"Literate?"
"Recognize a few. ”
The black-robed man paused: "The old man can teach you to read." ”
Shen Yun was surprised and couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at him. Is pie going to fall from the sky?
"However, the old man has conditions. The black-robed man said unhurriedly.
Shen Yun secretly clenched his fists and made up his mind: No matter what, I will not break my oath to the hall master!
Unexpectedly, the black-robed man promised: "Don't worry, the old man will not ask you about the old Liu family or anything about the King Kong Fist." The old man's conditions are very simple, in the future, you have to help me buy herbs according to the old man's request. Don't worry, the old man will give you enough money. Shen boy, what surrounding counties have you been to?"
Shen Yun's eyes lit up: "I've been to Shixiu County and Yong'an County." ”
The black-robed man nodded: "The herbs I want are sold in ordinary pharmacies." You can go to Yongan County. Also, you can't mention it to anyone about buying herbs for the old man. Including your Humber and Sweet Sweet!"
Shen Yun was shocked - this person actually knew Hong Bo and Tian Tian!
The black-robed man smiled: "The old man secretly followed you down the mountain three times. The old man has found out all the details of you, including the place where you hid your grain. So, you'd better do what you're told. As long as you do your errand well, every three days at noon, you come here, and the old man will teach you to read and write for half an hour. If you dare to play tricks, buy medicine indiscriminately, or reveal the whereabouts of the old man......" He smiled, snorted from his nose, and his eyes flashed fiercely, "The old man promises that the three of you will not see the sun the next day!"
"Understood! understood!" Shen Yun replied. I don't know why, the next two sentences, word by word, sounded like they were hammered out with a hammer, and the sound hit his heart. As he listened, he was a little out of breath.
The black-robed man beckoned with satisfaction: "Come here, I'll start teaching you literacy now." As he spoke, he picked up a small branch at random, and wrote on the dirt ground in front of him: Golden Flower Grass.
"Do you recognize these three words?"
Shen Yun said truthfully: "I recognize everything." "Goldenrod is a common herb mentioned in the "Herbal Song". In the spring, the slopes of this area have always been everywhere. However, if you want to take medicine at this time, you can only buy it at the pharmacy.
The black-robed man sighed "hmm", and wrote nearly thirty words: red leaf flowers, scaly roots...... Horse current.
I don't recognize half of the words in it. Shen Yun roughly guessed that these should be herbal names.
When the black-robed man asked again, he honestly picked out the words he didn't know.
The black-robed man taught him one by one. After he could read and write, he used a small branch to draw out the three-flavor herbs from them, and instructed: "Shen boy, you remember clearly, the herbs that the old man wants you to buy this time are, three catties of golden flowers, one catty of scaly roots, and five catties of horses." For the three medicines, you have to go to different pharmacies to buy them. As he spoke, he threw out a dime of silver, "Three days later, at noon, give it to the old man here." ”
"Yes. Shen Yun's eyes were quick, and he hurriedly caught the broken silver with both hands.
"Go ahead. The black-robed man's eyes closed slightly, and he waved his hand lightly, "Remember the old man's words!"
The rain has long since stopped.
"Thank you, sir. Shen Yun made a gesture to the black-robed man, then picked up the bamboo basket and turned to leave.
When his figure disappeared into the bushes, the black-robed man suddenly opened his eyes, and his mouth opened to spew out a mouthful of dark red blood foam.
He was already badly wounded. Previously, in order to lure Shen Xiaozi here, he had to use a rain talisman to urge his true qi. Therefore, the blood and qi in the body surged, and at this time, it could no longer be suppressed.
