Volume 1 Broken Bamboo Chapter 49 Hulu Ti has always pretended to be stupid

In fact, this ancestral tomb of the Zhang family is very close to the old lame's house, only two miles away. The old lame man put his crutches aside, and kept handing the yellow paper to the fire in his hand, and then burned it again, and kept muttering: "Brother-in-law, you are good, and you don't have to worry about anything when you leave, but I will be miserable." ”

Zhang Muliu walked over and took out the yellow paper from his arms, started another fire on the side, burned a few sheets, and then knelt down and kowtowed three times. Ignoring the muttering old lame man, he took the rest of the yellow paper and went to each grave to order a few sheets. This is the custom of the hometown, since I was a child, I went to the grave like this, after burning incense and burning paper for my ancestors, I had to go to a few pieces of paper for each grave bag. When Zhang Muliu was a child, he often wondered why he did this, and at that time he came to the conclusion that he would burn some paper for the neighbors of his ancestors, at least the deceased family and his neighbors could be more harmonious.

Obviously, Zhang Muliu is not really here at this moment, but the place where he is is real. The old lame man didn't know what strange magical powers he had used, and he "brought back" himself to Xiaozhushan, naturally it was not as simple as returning to his hometown for nothing.

When the young man was in front of the old master's grave, that is, the land temple, he changed into a green shirt again, and at this moment he was standing on the riverside, the cool breeze was blowing, and the green shirt was swinging back with the wind. Looking at the old guy who was still talking to the grave, he wanted to drink for no reason.

The old lame man suddenly heard that he was laughing, but the sadness in his words was difficult to hide, "Stinky boy, you have come all the way, you know a little bit about Xiaozhushan, right?"

Zhang Muliu nodded and replied, "On a trip to Zhanbuzhou, I know more or less. ”

It's just that Zhang Muliu didn't want to talk about this topic in depth, but asked: "Is that book the manifestation of my inner demons or do you really have the ability to know what I am hiding the most?"

The old lame man at the grave in the distance disappeared and reappeared on a large rock by the river. He smiled and said: "The hexagram master has no ability to figure out what others are thinking, where did your grandfather and I come from this ability?"

Zhang Muliu frowned and said: "Old guy, don't take advantage of it in a different way, we have almost nothing to do with each other, and the blood relationship that goes around and around is not as good as the neighbors." ”

The old guy didn't hit anyone this time, but just said softly: "I did give the name of Jisha Town, but that chance really has nothing to do with me. The weasel was originally intended to let it get that opportunity, and there are some things that we can't do after all. But who knew that guy was so timid, and he had a good chance to give it to a lay couple. Moreover, the astragalus husband and wife are not a good thing, you can take a look at it yourself after you go back. ”

"What the hell is it?" Zhang Muliu asked.

The old lame man pondered for a moment and said, "It's a gourd." ”

Zhang Muliu's face was strange, gourd? It's dusk, is it a coincidence or is it hidden deeply?

There's a tune that goes well with this dusk.

Hugh laughed at the dove's nest and clumsy plan, and Hulu Ti has always pretended to be in a daze. ”

That gourd must have contained a lot of gold and silver treasures, otherwise the dusk would not have been "sober" until he was framed and imprisoned, and the old house that was demolished was probably a trick. The person behind it has been keeping the dusk, just to find the gourd, right?

The old lame man smiled and said, "Yes, you are no less clever than I was back then, and you are really worthy of being a great-grandson." ”

Zhang Muliu rolled his eyes and turned his head to look at this Xiaozhuxi, which was obviously in the north, but was a tributary of the river. The young man grinned and smiled very happily, the next time he really returned to his hometown, he would come back with several girls, and then he would be able to show off to those guys, "Look, Lao Tzu even has a daughter!"

After talking to the old lame man about something important, Zhang Muliu returned to Xiaozhushan, walked to a small red brick house, glanced at Grandma Tai from a distance, and then closed his eyes tightly. When I opened my eyes again, I returned to the western suburbs of Cao County, with Liu Zhiyun by my side and a hippie smiling weasel.

Huang Daxian had a lot of snot and tears and rubbed them back and forth, and Zhang Muliu kicked him into the rice field with a black face.

After carefully looking around, Zhang Muliu still couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The old guy is really good, and it looks like it's only been a little bit out there.

The sorcerer lay half-dead on the ground, and Zhang Muliu waved his hand to flick away a wisp of fire, and the latter cried wolf. Rolling on the ground, shouting "I say, I say!"

Liu Zhiyun is a scholar after all, and comparing the splint at the entrance of the yamen with the killing rod is really not scary at all.

The weasel had already run back from the rice field, but when he heard the ghost crying wolf howl, he slowly crouched down and hid behind a patch of rice and did not come out.

This Huang Daxian has secretly made an oath that even if he offends Daluo Immortal in the future, he will not provoke this guy. The good guy is ruthless and loves to pretend to be garlic, but he is a sword-wielding person, why is this like this?

Zhang Muliu stretched out his palm, and the spell master was instantly sucked by a huge force, "The people hiding behind are unwilling to save you, what do you say is alive?"

The small flame just now, when it enters the body of this Xie Ding old man, it will continue to burn his internal organs, and he will not die, but it is definitely ten million times more uncomfortable than death.

The sorcerer sweated profusely and said in a trembling voice: "Twenty years ago, there was a strange beast in the upper reaches of the Cangsheng River, with two true meanings of gold and earth, and it was it that made me help Hu Zhixian frame that family. It also has the lowest realm of harmony, and I don't know why it didn't do it on its own. That's all I really know...... Spare my life!"

With a twist of his wrist in a green shirt, the sorcerer was already dead and couldn't die anymore. That flame would burn the soul of this old man, and it was impossible to go to the underworld.

Liu Zhiyun saw that the sorcerer had his neck broken at once, and he stomped his feet for a while, and sighed lamentingly: "Sir, why did you kill him?

Zhang Muliu first glared at the rice field on the side, and a little Taoist boy came out of it slowly with a sad face. Then he slowly looked at Liu Zhiyun and said with a smile: "It's all here, he still only talks a little confused, and avoids the important and says something that is easy to know, what's the use of leaving him?"

It's not that the sorcerer is willing to help someone behind him hide something, it's that he wants to keep something important as a bargaining chip.

Liu Zhiyun said helplessly: "Then how do we go to check?"

Zhang Muliu said with a smile: "Investigate a fart! Investigate the case is your business, I just need to know the cause and effect, and judge the good and evil." After that, he took up his sword and went to cut people. ”

The weasel belly sneered: "This fucking is like a sword cultivator!"

......

The young Liu Gong went to the back mountain alone, and he was worried along the way. In order not to be noticeable, he deliberately wore a clean outfit and changed his shoes, which he never wanted to lift his heels. When buying clothes, the young man hesitated for a long time, and finally bought a shirt according to Zhang Muliu's green shirt. Liu Gong was actually still thinking on the way to the back mountain, if the master knew that he was learning from him, would he be killed?

Regardless of whether Zhang Muliu admits him as an apprentice or not, he will not change if he is killed by a master.

One night, Liu Gong finally walked to the bank of the Zhuqu River, and said in his heart that if he ran all the way along this Zhuqu, it would not take long to reach the back mountain. With a priceless demon heart in his arms, this tofu scum-like foundation building monk was inevitably uneasy.

In fact, this young man didn't know that You Fang had been turning into a mustard seed and following behind him, and if he met a monk above the distraction, Zhang Muliu would arrive in an instant.

The reason why You Fang followed behind this guy was not because he was afraid that he would run away with a big demon heart, what Zhang Muliu was worried about was that because of this heart, Liu Gong would cause trouble. So this can be regarded as a test for Liu Gong by Zhang Muliu.

You Fang is an innate sword, which was bred in the chaos, and it has some spiritual wisdom in itself, and it is completely integrated, so there is no way to derive a sword spirit.

An ancient sword in the heart of a child, following behind a young man who was crawling like an ant all day long, he was naturally a little unhappy. So from time to time, You Fang would tease the boy.

This night, You Fang was restless again, and quietly dived into the river in the distance while Liu Gong was in a daze facing the casting canal. Suddenly, he rushed down a casting canal towards Liu Gong, and the river was agitated. The boy was startled, and he didn't know what it was, anyway, it didn't look like he could fight it. So he shouted, "Mother!" and ran away, seeing that he still couldn't run that thing, he gritted his teeth, took out a handful of mud coins from his arms, and didn't care about being distressed, and directly threw it to the "money-eating" flying sword, followed by a young man in the foundation building period, stepping on a second-hand flying sword, wiping his tears while rushing towards the back mountain.

I didn't feel distressed when I spent the money, but I wanted to chop off my hand afterwards.

After an hour, he rushed to the gate of the back mountain, and the young man breathed a sigh of relief and turned his head to see that the unknown object in the casting ditch was still in hot pursuit.

So a young man who had finally stopped being sloppy ran to the mountain gate with a sad face, shouting, "Senior, help! ”

Guarding the gate of the mountain is naturally Lao Qin, this unfathomable realm of the old man has long noticed the movement of the casting canal, but the last time he saw You Fang, the old man recognized this sword. So he smiled strangely and ignored it again.

There are a lot of people who worship the mountain today, and they are all from all walks of life in the world who come to ask the refining masters on the mountain to open the furnace and cast soldiers. There is no small family, most of them are burned with a lot of money on the mountain, and they come to ask for a few divine weapons and put them in the sect to fill the warehouse, all of which are reserved for disciples with good talents.

A group of people stood outside the Heng Gate, looking at the young man who came here in a panic and kept talking nonsense.

Shouting for help? Is there a brain disease! At the foot of this Back Mountain, someone dares to do anything to hurt people? You must know that Back Mountain has an iron law for a long time, even if there is a revenge for killing my father outside, if it is encountered in my Back Mountain, it must be restrained.

The strange eyes of the crowd made Liu Gong realize something, and sure enough, when he turned his head to look at the casting canal again, there was nothing.

If you don't come, you won't have it.

The young man didn't think much about it, but shouted at Lao Qin: "This is Senior Qin, right? I was sent by my master to deliver a letter and something here, and by the way, I took a sword." ”

Lao Qin deliberately didn't bother with the young man, so a group of monks who were waiting to pass through the door laughed.

Although no one said anything to mock, the laughing young man instantly turned red.

Liu Gong stubbornly asked again: "My master's surname is Zhang, and this letter is for your sect master." ”

There was another laugh, and this time someone finally made a mockery: "I said, little guy, you are a foundation building monk, and your master is Jindan? Do you have correspondence with the sect master of the back mountain? Do you want to make up an explanation to go up the mountain early? No one will believe it if they hear this, so let's go to the back and line up, let's come one by one." ”

Without waiting for the man to continue to ridicule, Lao Qin looked at Liu Gong and said, "Go and wait." ”

The boy smiled bitterly, so he had to step aside, squat down lightly, take out his pipe, and start smoking.

In fact, the young man scolded the speaker in his heart at the moment, I don't know how many times, Liu Gong was even thinking: "If my master is here, a few swords will poke all of you turtle sons to the ground! Laugh at me? A group of guys who have never seen the world, do you know that there is a big demon heart in Lao Tzu's baggage? Do you know what the realm of the big devil is?"

The complaint in the young man's heart was like thunder in Lao Qin's ears, and this old man who had guarded the mountain gate for many years felt very interesting.

I don't know why, since that young man came here, Lao Qin has been a little ignorant of those who have laughed, how long Liu Gong squatted on the side, how long those who had laughed before have waited.

Three hours had passed, and it was almost dawn. Those people also realized that they had discovered something, so they all frowned and glared at Liu Gong.

Liu Gong doesn't care about you, just lying on the side casually, just smoking non-stop. In fact, he thought to himself: "Just talk about other people, you know a fart! Isn't it the same as me now? I, Liu, am so old, no matter what happens, I will never talk nonsense until I know the cause and effect." ”

Lao Qin smiled slightly, and sent a message to the mountain. Not long after, a woman with a straight face appeared at the gate of the mountain and glared at Lao Qin. The latter smiled, pointed at Liu Gong and said, "It's him, saying that he is the kid's apprentice." ”

Xie Yun'er walked over to Liu Gong's side, frowned and asked, "What about the others?"

Liu Gong's face was strange, and he said in his heart, how could this smell wrong? But he still said truthfully: "The master sent the master back to his hometown, saying that he didn't dare to come." ”

The woman's face darkened when she heard this, and she scolded directly, and she didn't pass on the sound: "What does that bastard mean? Could it be that I'm afraid that I'll eat him?"

Lao Qin covered his forehead, and the "big families" waiting in front of the mountain gate couldn't believe their ears.

Liu Gong had no choice but to smile bitterly and said, "I guess he is not afraid that Sister Xie will eat him, and he will beat his sister to death." ”

Thank you, sister, this is a young master, and she is the god of wealth who is in charge of the money of a huge back mountain.

"The little one is really good at talking, come and go up the mountain with my sister. Xie Yun'er did not reply with a message, but deliberately let these people hear it.

Lao Qin's face was strange, and he said in his heart: "This ghost girl is really getting better and better, and now that kid owes Ridgeback Mountain a favor again." ”

Those who have not climbed the mountain for a long time are silent at the moment. Everyone was thinking about something in their hearts, and it was estimated that when they returned to the sect, they would inquire about a monk surnamed Zhang.

......

Dusk and Li Wucai were not only happy in the prison, although the time was not long, but the two officials were already a little reluctant to go out again.

Yu not only smiled and chatted with the guard jailer, "Brother, why didn't you find out before, this prison is such a good place to go?

The jailer said helplessly: "Brother Yu, you can be poor with me, who in Cao County doesn't know what you two are?" Before Lord Liu came, you two were willing to help us a little, and were willing to support those villagers who had no backing. If you are in trouble and do not live comfortably in this prison, where will we have the face to go out in the future? ”

Li Wucai reclined on the straw mat and interjected: "What can we support, we have been mixed for more than ten years, and we are still a janitor." ”

The jailer didn't think so, "The new Lord Liu is young and ambitious, and he will definitely not let you just be a janitor, don't worry!"

Another jailer hurriedly came and whispered, "Brother Yu and Brother Li, you hurry up and string up the words, as soon as Lord Liu opened his eyes, he said that he would come to interrogate you, and it was estimated that he would come in half an hour." ”

The two jailers nodded toward the cell, turned and left.

Dusk leaned against the corner of the wall, and suddenly said a word of sorry.

The two of them were puzzled, and Dusk said again: "I haven't been able to open my mouth to say thank you to the two eldest brothers, and today I not only want to thank the two of you, but I also have to tell you the truth." ”

Yu not only leaned over and touched Dusk's forehead, saying that he didn't have a fever, why did he talk nonsense?

Dusk suddenly knelt on his knees and said in a deep voice, "The two eldest brothers will listen to me first." There is one thing I have been hiding from you, I am actually not stupid, my father and mother said to the outside world that I have barely grown up after the age of nine, and I have always had a nine-year-old mind. In fact, I've always been normal. I also know that my father and mother are rich but not benevolent, and everyone doesn't want to see our family. I lost all my family wealth, and even robbed them of the gold and silver treasures of the old house, in fact, it was all deliberate, just to save my life. ”

Li Wucai frowned and said, "So you always know who killed your father and mother and stole those treasures?"

Twilight nodded and shook her head, "Yes, but it's not human. My father and mother got the opportunity of the immortal family, but they are just ordinary people, so they can only get wealth, but that opportunity is really tempting to the immortals. There is a strange beast in the upper reaches of the Cangsheng River that came when I was born, and my father and mother relied on the magic weapon, and the monster did not dare to get close, and refused to hand over the magic weapon of chance. So it was provoked to plan behind it for more than 20 years. The reason why I am still alive to talk to the two of you may be because I am the only one in the world who knows where the magic weapon is. ”

Li Wucai asked again: "Then why don't you hand it over and exchange your own life?"

Dusk smiled bitterly: "But I really don't know what that thing is and where it has gone." In fact, I've figured out a lot of things over the years, and that monster has come to look for me more than once. Even if I didn't have a magic weapon to protect me, it didn't hurt me. ”

After a pause, he continued: "Only when the mind is calm can we figure out many things. I guess that the monster just wanted to force my parents to not be able to survive and hand over the magic weapon, so Hu Zhixian embarrassed our family. But people's hearts are always greedy, and Hu Zhixian knew that my family had so many treasures, so he went to the old bald man and designed my house with him. ”

In the end, this young man, who has been called a fool for more than 20 years, but in fact has never been stupid, said with a wry smile: "To this point, in fact, my family is to blame." Earlier, I also suspected that the immortal was coming for the magic weapon, but after seeing it, I always felt that he would not be the one who wanted to seize the treasure. ”

A green shirt suddenly appeared, and said with a smile: "You are so willing to treat me as a good person, what if you feel wrong?"

Yu Yu smiled and slowly leaned up: "I said Immortal Master, can you not get us out? It's good to be in this prison, take care of food and stay." ”

Liu Zhiyun came from a distance with a dark face, "If you want to stay, just stay, this official will take care of you for a lifetime, and it will be no problem for you two to die in this prison for a lifetime." ”

As soon as they heard Liu Zhiyun's voice, the two old fritters stood up straight. Li Wucai sneered: "Lao Yu is just playing with the fairy master, we still have to serve the country, how can we die in prison?"

It is also strange to say that these two people know that Zhang Muliu is a cultivator with all means, but they are not afraid much, the reason is very simple, no matter how powerful Zhang Muliu is, he is not their top boss. And Liu Zhiyun is different, no matter how powerless he is a scholar, he is also the head of a county, and he is in charge of their three classes of servants.

Liu Zhiyun, the magistrate of the county who was dressed in official clothes, squinted at the two "old fritters", one fat and one thin, turned to look at dusk, frowned and asked, "What Fang just said is true?"

Dusk was still kneeling, bowed his head and said: "The sentence is true, although Dusk has been dizzy for more than ten years, I have not read the books of sages behind my back." When this fairy lord appeared, I guessed that he would go to kill demons, but that monster really didn't do anything harmful. ”

This fool, who is actually not stupid, raised his head and his eyes were red, and said to Liu Zhiyun:

"It is the human heart that hurts the heavens and the reason. ”

Zhang Muliu asked, "Where is the gourd?" is the magic weapon you are talking about. ”

"Gourd, you say gourd is a magic weapon?" Dusk was visibly shocked.

After looking around carefully, I didn't see that the green shirt was a little joking, and I said helplessly at dusk: "Turn around, it turns out that the gourd is a magic weapon." ”

As he spoke, he took a gourd about the size of a little thumb from his neck, "This is what I have hung around my neck since I was a child, and no one has ever told me that this is the magic weapon." ”

Zhang Muliu took the little gourd, and then frowned.

In a trance, I actually felt a trace of familiarity on this small gourd, which was a little similar to Lei Ze.

After a while, Zhang Muliu sighed and said: "No wonder I didn't find that your pendant is a magic weapon, the gourd's own aura is already one out of ten, if it wasn't in my hand, I wouldn't have felt that this is actually a fairy gourd." ”

After that, he handed it back to Twilight, but the latter refused to take it.

"If I had known that this thing was the magic weapon, I would have given it to the monster a long time ago. Take the gourd, I'm a mortal and can't hold it. ”

Zhang Muliu smiled, then really accepted the gourd, and said softly at dusk: "Take people's soft hands, cause and effect I will block for you." ”

A green shirt flashed away, turning into a wisp of green smoke and quickly heading upstream to the Cangsheng River.

It was only halfway through, when suddenly a golden light slashed, and Zhang Muliu dodged sideways and fell to the bank of the Cangsheng River.

Directly opposite, a woman in white, with a pair of horns on her head, her body was full of metallic and earthy attributes.

This "monster" gritted his teeth, stared at Zhang Muliu and said, "You killed the unicorn?"

Zhang Muliu sighed, the old lame man is really fucking calculating.

The young man in a green shirt wanted to look up to the sky and howl at the moment, and shouted to the guy who ran to the unicorn mound:

"I've found a daughter-in-law for you!"
