One of the "Lushan Series" "Five Old Real People" The sixth round

After Mu Rongping cleared the threat, she immediately caught up with the girl and the old beggar, and said solemnly: "Girl, the severity of the situation this time is probably far beyond our imagination, we must leave Yangzhou immediately, and something will happen sooner or later if we stay here." This old man is just a beggar, and the people of the Heavenly Perfume Pavilion will not do anything to him, leave him behind, and we will go quickly. The girl was very unhappy to hear this, she was silent and thoughtful, and at last, she spoke: "This old uncle looks very much like my father, and his eyes reveal the simplicity and love in my father's eyes, and the reason why I took him in is precisely because of this. Now that we are in trouble, we will leave him alone and run for our lives, I can't do it. Mu Rongping said: "Hey, the group of people who chased and killed us just now were sent by the Left Protector of the Heavenly Perfume Pavilion, and it is said that the martial arts of this Left Protector are unfathomable, and I have an ominous premonition, I think...... We'll have to get out of here anyway, and since you don't want to leave this old man behind, let's go together. The girl nodded reassuringly.

At this moment, a sturdy figure suddenly appeared in front of the three of them, and this person was the girl's husband, the young man with a giant blade.

The young man glanced at the faces of the three people with contempt, and burst out in a very unfriendly tone: "Lady, lady, I never dreamed that a country woman like you from the countryside would also go out of the wall, hehe, it's really interesting!" The three of them were stupid on the spot, no one could think of anything to say, and the girl herself was at a loss that she couldn't compare. After a long pause, the young man shouted again: "Eh, I said cheap, let's go to the East China Sea Demon Island to kill the enemy, oh, we still went specifically to avenge your father's mother, how to report you I don't know where to run, huh? I thought you were killed or injured, but after some investigation, I found that the blood spilled on the ground was only the enemy's, and none of your clothes were damaged, where did you go, ah?" I've been looking for a few days, but I can't find you, heh, today I just knew, you're messing around with other men, oops, awesome!" The girl understood her husband's intention this time, and responded immediately: "A lot of things are not as you imagined, now we are being chased and killed by the Heavenly Perfume Pavilion, and I will explain to you later." After speaking, he pulled the old beggar and Mu Rongping to turn around and leave, but the young man waved his giant blade and scolded loudly: "Adulteress, you are my lady, but the man next to you is someone else, I can't afford this green hat! Then he grasped the hilt of the giant blade with both hands, and plunged the giant blade into the grassless earth, so that the huge knife made him sink completely, and the surrounding soil cracked several feet, and he shouted again: "I can kill him with my bare hands." The girl couldn't react at all, and was so helpless that she forgot to even make a move to stop her, but her mouth was about to open wide but she still couldn't speak, and her expression was anxious to show her intention to stop it.

The young man unceremoniously displayed the highly poisonous true skill that he had just practiced, and there were bursts of miasma between his pores. Mu Rongping acted out of instinctive self-defense, and quickly faced the enemy with his muscles and bones. Although the young man's fist and foot kung fu were also sharp, he couldn't keep up with the rhythm of Mu Rongping's moves, and he was defeated in just a few rounds, and Mu Rongping easily smashed the young man's shoulders and spine.

After the fight, Mu Rongping felt dizzy, felt unwell, and his hands and feet gradually became numb, and then he knew that he was highly poisonous. So he opened his mouth and reprimanded the young man: "You...... It's just the scum of the martial arts, and it's shameless to practice such a vicious and despicable martial arts! This kind of trick that harms others and oneself has been extinct in the rivers and lakes for hundreds of years, and you brute still go to practice. The young man lying on the ground with broken veins was powerless to respond. However, at this time, the girl suddenly showed her love for her husband, threw herself to her husband who was lying on the ground, snuggled in his arms, stretched out her index finger and pointed at Mu Rongping and scolded: "Mu Rongping, why are you so heavy, you hurt him like this, if he has three long and two short, I will definitely not let you go." Mu Rongping was even more surprised, but he didn't have the intention to argue, so he only said lightly: "I'm afraid he won't be able to live, while I'm still conscious, I have to send you away immediately, and it's not too late to kill me when I get to a safe place." Tian Xiangxie is not like our East China Sea Demon Gang, if you provoke him, there is almost no hope of living. As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately led the girl with one hand and the old beggar with the other and fled quickly to the north.

And the young man with the broken skeleton, lying on the muddy ground dripping with his own blood, recalled the cheerful scene of practicing martial arts with the girl Chao Chao Twilight, and his mind resounded with lingering calls and the hiss of love, and at the last moment of his life, he shed tears of remorse, hating himself for not blaming such a good beloved wife. During the convulsions, his shattered bones pierced his stomach and internal organs, and left the world forever.

A few days later, after some hard tossing, Mu Rongping and his entourage came to Kaifeng in the Liang State (not long ago Zhu Wen had just deposed the Tang Dynasty as emperor here), and finally escaped, and it was safe in a short time. Fortunately, that young man's poison skills were very superficial, Mu Rongping was able to expel the toxins from his body with his vitality, and he recovered in a few days. As he expected, the subordinates of the Heavenly Perfume Pavilion took Yangzhou as the central point and sent minions to hunt down and kill Mu Rongping in all directions, vowing to avenge their middle protector, which is the principle and spirit of this sect condensed in the blood.

One night, the girl came to the window, looked at the crescent moon in the sky, and missed her husband who had just died. Murong Ping looked from afar and saw tears boiling in her eyes, so he approached to comfort her: "Don't be like this, your husband is a sinister and cunning villain, he uses that kind of martial arts, which is already despised by the martial arts people in the world, not to mention, he is the first to do it!" The girl did not answer, pretending not to hear. Murong Ping thought that the girl was guilty of a woman's common disease - after losing her spouse, she had no spiritual sustenance and was lonely. So, he stood behind the girl, his hands fell gently on the girl's shoulders, and at the same time, a few shy words came out of his mouth: "Girl, I ...... We've been getting along, we've been together for a while, and I'm ...... I mean...... I'm really...... Really like you. It's wrong for me to kill your husband, but I really don't want to see you cry and cry all day long, I know what I've done is really ...... So, I want to atone for your sins with the dedication of my life. Please, let me be your slave for the rest of my life, and I will be able to take care of you, care for you, and protect you endlessly, and I will be satisfied and have no regrets. Speaking of this, the girl finally turned around, but the language she spoke was: "Hmph, Mu Rongping, you listen to me, I would rather marry a beggar than marry you." Mu Rongping's head suddenly heated, and a wave of anger surged up, wanting to suppress it but unable to control it, this emotion was too extreme. Murong Ping smiled sarcastically, and said lightly and heavily: "Okay, don't just say that you don't practice, you go to marry a beggar, you go, isn't there just one next door, don't you have a good impression of him, you can marry him, you can marry him!" The girl did not hesitate, and immediately said: "That old uncle, very similar to my father, I have an incomparable sense of closeness with him, I am blessed to be able to marry him, you think I am talking about fun, heh, look!"

I saw her quickly run to the next room, and immediately knelt in front of the old beggar, and said, "Old uncle, please marry me, I will not hesitate to be a cow, a horse, a slave, or a maid, as long as you are willing, old uncle." The old beggar's eyes widened, and the wrinkles on his face became even more mottled, and he stretched out his thin and black hands to help the girl up, and said: "Son, you can't be like this, you are young and vigorous, but you will regret it for the rest of your life! You are so young, I am an old man of the age of sixties, if you marry me, it is not too wronged for you! At your age, you can be my granddaughter!" The girl did not say anything, but only shouted: " Old uncle, if you don't agree to marry me today, I will immediately bite my tongue and kill myself in front of you. The old beggar burst into tears, and his lips trembled, and he said, "I have begged for food all my life, woo...... As long as the girl does not dislike me for being an old man, old and ugly, of course I would like to be with the girl, woo woo woo ......" the girl laughed happily "hahaha......" and then put her mouth to the old beggar's earlobe and said softly, "Why don't we strike while the iron is hot, and we will do the husband and wife tonight, I really want to be a real woman." Old uncle, oh no, Xianggong, would you like to?" The old beggar was dumbfounded, and had no words, so he could only be obediently led by the girl and walked out of the building, and ran to the woods and fields in the suburbs.

That night, under the coercion and instigation of the girl, the old beggar exerted all his strength to make the girl experience the first "intimate contact" in her life. From then on, the girl's belly was pregnant with the flesh and blood of an old beggar. After they completed this, they went to the southwest to "fly away", still begging for a living along the way, but the two lived a sweet and cheerful life, and the girl gradually erased the psychological distortion caused by her ex-husband's death and starvation.

Mu Rongping also regretted it after that night, hating that she had caused the girl's sudden departure because of her impulsiveness. That night, I saw the old beggar's hand taken by the girl running out of the house, and I knew what was going to happen, but I didn't stop, stop or apologize, but let her wantonly ......

Time is like water, years are like songs, a year later, the girl held the newborn baby and begged for food with the old beggar to the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, but because the local residents are few, there are few charities, the girl has lived a life of hunger and cold for a long time, finally, she soon became seriously ill because of cold and hunger, and the old beggar had no ability to heal her, and the girl died in the torture of illness.

The old beggar walked with an old pace, supporting the last physical strength of begging for food for many years, relying on the "hunger skills" he had practiced for many years, and walked all the way with his own flesh and blood, and stepped into the realm of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain.

He was very tired and tired, so he sat down under a boulder and rested his legs for a while. Suddenly, a snow leopard sprang out from the boulder and was about to pounce on the old beggar, who and the baby were the only meal it had been waiting for for many days. The old beggar reacted especially quickly in this situation, and immediately picked up the baby and ran, running with all his strength. The snow leopard chased after him, and he chased it lifelessly. As a result, their speed was basically the same, and they both ran for a long time and were still separated by such a long distance. At last the old beggar ran to the edge of a cliff with an abyss below, and if he jumped he would die. Seeing that the snow leopard was about to catch up, he looked at the sky in despair and shouted angrily: "God, you can torture me as much as you want, it doesn't matter if I die immediately, please don't bother my child, he is an innocent baby, God, be merciful, let that leopard eat me, don't hurt this baby." "At the same time as he shouted (called), the snow leopard had already arrived here. I saw that the snow leopard opened its mouth, exposed its teeth, looked at the old beggar with very vicious eyes, and whispered, and then suddenly pounced, and its body flew towards the old beggar like a white arrow. The old beggar closed his eyes tightly and waited for death to come.

Who knows, the snow leopard was accidentally slipped by the cold ice on the ground, and slid to the edge of the cliff in one fell swoop, except for the claws of the two front legs that were frantically pulling up, and the whole body had already hung under the tip of the cliff, and it was about to fall. The old beggar didn't feel right when he heard this sound, so he opened his eyes and saw the scene of the snow leopard in distress. He thought to himself: I am also reduced to looking for food because I am hungry, and you also come to eat me because I am hungry, rather than I starve to death, it is better to do something good for you.

I saw the old beggar gently rest the baby wrapped in a thick cotton cloth on the ground, and then walked to the edge of the cliff, squatted down, firmly pinched the two front legs of the snow leopard with both hands, and pulled it up desperately. Finally, the snow leopard was pulled up by him.

Unexpectedly, the animal also knew gratitude, and after the snow leopard was pulled up, it pounced on the old beggar's stomach, stretched out its tongue and licked the old beggar's face excitedly......

In a few moments, an old man in a cotton coat with gray hair came from nowhere, and was standing firmly on the edge of the cliff, beside the body of the old beggar and the snow leopard. The old man said kindly, "This old brother, thank you for saving my leopard, I am really grateful!" The old beggar was very surprised, and slowly stood up and asked, "Who are you?" The old man said, "I, hehe, no name and no surname, a shepherd, living by hunting in this deep mountain and old forest, it is not worth mentioning!" The old beggar forgot his words for a moment, and just looked at the old man blankly.

The old man spoke again: "Well, I don't know how expensive my brother is this year?" The old beggar said, "Oh, I'm over sixty this year, sixty-five or six!" The old man said, "Oh, then I'm wrong." I'm one hundred and ten years old, and I'm a lot older than you, oh, I should call you the next generation!" the old beggar was even more astonished, and remained silent. The old man said, "I want to repay the most faithful leopard in the next life, but I wonder what wish I can make for you? No matter what you ask for in the next life, the old man will do everything to complete it for you." The old beggar's eyes flashed, and he pointed to the baby on the ground and said without thinking, "Oh, that's my child, boy." His mother is already starving to death, and if you follow me, sooner or later she will starve to death. I can't last long, I'm afraid that the child will go with me helplessly, if your family situation allows, please adopt this child and raise him as an adult. I know that my request is very selfish and shameless, but I really can't bear to see my son ...... like this" The old man did not hesitate, nodded on the spot, and said, "Is this only my wish?" The old beggar said, "Oh, and besides, I have to teach him the principles and skills of being a human being, and he can't wait until he grows up to live by begging for food like me and eventually starve to death, right?" The old man smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will give him what should be passed on to him, and I will not hesitate to do so, so that he will become a useful person in the future." By the way, dare to ask Hou Sheng's surname?" the old beggar said, "Oh, my surname is Lu." The old man asked again: "Lu, well, good surname, the sages Lu Ji and Lu Yun are my idols." You can't beg for food for a lifetime, do you have any specialties or skills that you can use? It's the kind of ability that can make money and survive. The old beggar muttered, "What are my specialties?" After thinking for a long time, he finally said, "Oh, when I was young, I lived by selling art in the market with my family, and I learned to play the with my brothers and sisters, and I really made a lot of money at that time." Later, the old man said, ......"Oh, pitiful, if you don't succeed in performing arts, you can only survive by begging for food, until now! It has not been easy for you in the past few decades! Well, I will definitely fulfill your wish for you, and I will definitely raise your child with my own hands, please rest assured." Oh, and besides, does your son have a name?" said the old beggar, "Ah, a name, oh, I haven't given it to him yet!" and the old man said, "Oh, since I don't have a name, I'll give him one." Well, you relied on the to survive, and the is really a good way to make a living! yes, I thought of a good name, just call your son Lu Yinxiao, what do you think?" The old beggar had never read any books, so he just sounded good to the ear anyway, so he said in a loud voice: "Good, good, really good, what a good name!" The old man took the baby, said goodbye to the old beggar, and rode away on the back of the snow leopard.

The old beggar no longer has any worries, and instead of begging for food and wasting the food in the world, it is better to die and go to see his young wife as soon as possible. So, with his last breath of strength, he rushed to the edge of the cliff and stepped straight down.

In the days to come, the old man sitting on the snow leopard will take care of Xiao Yinxiao as both a father and a mother, feed the children with the colostrum of his own livestock animals, and use those rare herbs and ice fruits that grow up and down the snow-capped mountains as snacks for the children. A few years later, the old man also personally taught the child martial arts, such as letting the child learn the art of cat jumping, a high wall, and instantly bounced up.

Dynasties are changing, times are evolving, and herders are on the move. The only thing that remains unchanged is that the bloody rivers and lakes are still full of killings and disturbances. Time is fleeting, and the child has grown up inadvertently, and at this time, it has been eighteen years since the old beggar jumped off the cliff.
