Chapter 1: Worship

Next Chapter

Qingming, light rain, Lijia Village at such a time is even more bleak. In the drizzle, I saw two figures rushing towards the mountain behind Lijia Village.

It is said that it is a back mountain, but in fact it is just a few small slopes, and more than a dozen graves in the mountain are buried with the deceased in Lijia Village. Seeing this scene, the two unconsciously slowed down, and the current one slowly followed the strange lines in his hand to find it, and finally stopped in front of the grave of a couple, looking at the names on the tombstone, his expression changed from doubt to disbelief, and then infinite regret. calmed down and slowly took off his hood, it turned out to be a well-known Changhe Tianjian Qufeng Qu Hero on the rivers and lakes.

Qu Feng was silent, and after a long time, he sighed: "I'm here incognito, and I can't imagine that when I see you again, it's already heaven and man." Dragon sword and phoenix blade, it's a pity. After a pause, he beckoned to the people behind him, "Come, Yinghong, kowtow to the two seniors, I'm afraid I won't have a chance to come back to worship in the future." Although Qu Yinghong still had some doubts, he had roughly guessed that this must be his father's former best friend, and he was about to kneel down to worship despite the mud under his feet, but was interrupted by a shout.

"Hey, who's who!" the half-grown boy who arrived was holding paper money and incense candles in one hand, and pointing at a strange visitor with the other, although his mouth was scolding, his face was full of curiosity. And seven or eight steps behind the young man, there was also a man standing with a sickle and a broom in his hand, presumably to clear the weeds of the deceased. What is interesting is that the faces of the two are almost the same, and they are a pair of twin brothers. Qu Yinghong unconsciously glanced sideways at his father, but found that Qu Feng looked at the two teenagers with interest.

"Hey, what do you guys say!" Li Gui couldn't help but be a little annoyed when he saw that he couldn't answer. Today is Qingming, and I came to worship my parents with my brother early, but I saw a pair of strangers rushing in front, and the drizzle was misty and I couldn't see each other's appearance, and a nameless fire suddenly surged in my heart. wiped his face, walked quickly to the two of them and was about to scold, but after seeing Qu Yinghong's appearance clearly, he couldn't say a word. It was obviously a cold and rainy day, but there seemed to be a bright sky in front of him, as if the sky was clear and the sun was rising, and there was only endless brilliance in his eyes. Belch... Sister, are you a fairy who fell from the sky?" Li Gui was stunned for several breaths before coming back to his senses, but the corners of his mouth no longer had the same sharpness as before, and he didn't even know what to say.

"Ah Gui, come back!" The young man with the same appearance who fell behind him was named Li Mu, but he let out a low roar, his eyes were full of worry, vigilance, and hostility.

Qu Feng was a little surprised when he saw this scene: "It's a little interesting, I'm not too old and not too wary." You are Brother Li's children, and when I had fellowship with him, you were not yet born, so you don't need to be so wary of me. ”

Li Mu didn't answer anymore, his brows furrowed even deeper, and the sickle in his hand was raised even more.

Qu Feng laughed, and said with an unknown meaning: "That little guy, you have to take a good look at it, if I want to do something, I'm afraid you won't be able to stop it!" Li Mu's body trembled slightly when he heard this, and a feeling of being targeted by a fierce beast hit his heart, a shuddering time, there was still half a figure in front of him, and before he could react, a big hand had covered the top of his head, and at the same time, a slightly mocking word came from his ear: "Do you think that if I want to be unfavorable to you, I need to be so troublesome?" Li Mu stiffened, and when the fear he had never felt before climbed to the highest point, Qu Feng just patted his head and said, "Little guy, your temperament is not like your father at all." ”

"Wow, that's amazing! Uncle, you're one of those peerless masters who can fly around. Li Gui was heartless, clapping his hands on the side, and the slightly stagnant atmosphere was swept away in an instant.

Li Mu was stunned, stopped speaking, and stood quietly to the side. Qu Yinghong pointed to the tombstone and took the opportunity to ask: "Are you the descendants of your predecessors? How old are you and what are you called?" Li Gui immediately replied as soon as he heard the question of the beauty in front of him: "My name is Li Fugui, and I am destined to be rich and noble in the future, although this guy is the same age as me, he is twelve years old, but I am the eldest brother and he is the younger brother, this guy's name is Li Mutou, it is a piece of wood, the kind that can't beat a fart with three sticks, don't remember him." When Qu Yinghong heard this, he sneered and scolded: "How can there be such an obvious difference in the name of the parents, it is obvious that you are talking nonsense." ”

Li Gui smiled: "Don't care about these details, but how old are you this year, young lady? It doesn't seem to be much older than me, I don't know if there is a good match? In a few years, when I am an adult and make a fortune, I will marry you as a wife, okay, you will have pork rib soup to drink every meal, how about it?"

"Ahh Qu Yinghong is only twenty-eight years old, full of girlish nature, laughing and scolding, pulling Li Gui's cheek and rubbing it, and then the conversation changed and said with a smile: "But if you can become the best in the world, I may consider it." ”

"Okay, Yinghong, today's wish has been fulfilled, let's set off after saluting. But seeing Qu Feng raise his hand, interrupting their play, he turned around and took out some silver taels and handed them to Li Mu: "Child, I used to have a good relationship with your parents, but in the future, we will go to a far, far away place, and we can't take care of you for the old people. Also, your parents' real names are, Li Zheng, Yin Xiaoxiao. ”

Li Mu was stunned for a moment, firmly remembered it in his heart, and then looked at Qu Feng again, an ordinary uncle with an ordinary face, and a cyan long sword slung on his waist to show his identity as a Jianghu person, if there is anything different, it is that his eyes are extraordinarily sharp, which is a look that people in the village and even the town have never had. Thinking of the hand just now, thousands of thoughts flashed through his heart: "He claimed to have intersected with his father, could it be that his father and mother are also martial arts masters? But he has never seen them show a little martial arts, so why did he change his face and hide in this remote and barren Lijia Village? When he was three years old, his parents died of a sudden illness and died young, is there another hidden reason?" The more Li Mu thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he was afraid that he would be seen, so he hurriedly bowed to express his gratitude.

Qu Feng's father and daughter simply finished the worship ceremony and didn't say much, like a swallow in the rain, a few ups and downs, and then disappeared. "Wow, wow! Is that light work? It's amazing. Li Gui ran a few steps in the direction they left, shouting, and Li Mu shook his head.

"After all, I know her name, Yinghong. ”

......

"Father, you just said that Li Zheng and Li Daxia had a life-saving grace for you and your mother back then, why don't you take them with you when you go to Confucianism?" Qu Yinghong, who had already learned about the relationship between his father and the worshippers on the way, was puzzled.

"When I got the grace of saving my life, I couldn't repay it, and I divided the family heirloom treasure into two and gave it to Brother Li, this treasure has a mutual sense within a thousand miles, and it can stimulate the secret art in the heart at a critical moment, if I don't pass by here today, I am afraid that I will never know that he and his wife have already passed away. I want to be such a romantic person at the beginning, but now I have become a piece of loess. ”

Qu Feng paused, and said: "They retired to the rivers and lakes and lived in seclusion here, and they didn't teach those two children a little martial arts, presumably because they didn't want them to be contaminated with the turmoil in the rivers and lakes and live this life without wind and danger." If you go to Confucianism to find your mother, you will inevitably have to deal with the imperial court, and the vortex here is too big, and bringing them may harm them. When everything is said and done, let's arrange a good place for them to go. ”

Qu Yinghong thought for a while: "Anyway, those two children are twelve years old this year, but I think of a major event recorded in the Gonzo twelve years ago. ”

"Oh, do you mean the Demon Star Descending from the Sky?" Qu Feng heard this, but the corners of his mouth raised slightly, full of sarcasm: "That's just a folk rumor, how many things in the Strange Stories are true, and even the things that the national teacher has denied the Heavenly Machine, can it still be true?"

Qu Yinghong was more interested when he heard this: "Daddy, you still know the national teacher, how can you know such a big man when you are worthy of the level of the top 100 innate people." Qu Feng coughed twice and said embarrassedly: "Your grandfather is a big man in Confucianism, I just have a little light, in short, I have been separated from your mother for so many years because your grandfather has never treated me, this time you have to make your grandfather happy." ”

Qu Yinghong pursed his lips, dissatisfied with his father's divergence from the topic, although he always felt that the child called wood was full of eccentricity, but when he thought that he was about to see his mother, who he hadn't seen for many years, his mood suddenly became happy again, and he left everything just now.
