Volume 1 The Waves Rise and Fall Chapter 27 The Excalibur Out of the Rotten Wood (9)
The old man woke up quickly, and when he woke up, Lu Zhengli asked a question that he also wanted to know.
"How long has it been. This is the third question Lu Zhengli asked.
The first question is where the old man has gone.
The second question is what the old man did to him.
Now for the third question, he asked how long it had been.
The place, the event, the time, he asked. But he forgot that there was another person here.
The precocious child was gone.
Green Yi said: "Deep underground here, I can't see the sun, but the slave family has changed the candles twelve times before and after, and it should have been about three hours." ”
Lu Zhengli finally had a chance to talk to Green Yi, so he asked, "What do you want?" ”
In the darkness, the old man didn't give Green-clothed a chance to speak, and shouted loudly, "Boy, come here." ”
Lu Zhengli was about to take a sip of him, this is what he learned from Hualiu Lane, and it is also the only way to fil people, but he remembered what Green Yi said, the old man had just passed on the gong for him, and he more or less reduced the hatred of being attacked, so he said: "Don't go." ”
"If the mountain doesn't come, I'll go to the mountain. Instead of being angry, the old man crawled from the shadows, and he had long since lost his previous vigorous action.
Lu Zhengli listened to the "clang" sound of the iron chain impacting, although he didn't know why the old man's skills had changed so much before and after, he only guessed that it was the reason for the transmission of gong, and he was the "cause" of this "effect". He doesn't think about whether the old man's gift is what he needs, and he doesn't blame others for giving him permission without his permission. He only thinks that this old man is kind to him.
Too many people in the world do not want to receive favor, nor do they deserve it.
It is human nature to ascend to Mien and fight Mi hate. They only blame others for not giving enough, and never think about whether they deserve it.
The world is thin, people are evil, and the rain sends dusk flowers to fall.
Fortunately, Lu Zhengli is not such a person. If there is any merit of this crying and timid young man in his twenties, it is especially valuable to be able to see through people's kindness to him.
Whoever makes this world have many villains and few gentlemen, how can they blame the world, love the villain's heart, and spend the gentleman's belly.
Lu Zhengli finally got up and walked towards the old man.
After a few steps in front of the old man, he leaned over and squatted down, and when he saw that the old man was struggling and seemed to be unable to get up, he followed the old man and lay down together.
The old man laughed dryly: "I'd rather lie on my stomach than soothe the old man?"
Lu Zhengli suddenly realized, patted his head, and said with a smile: "How can I lose a tendon like Wang Zhuoyu." ”
Saying that, he helped the old man up, but the old man said: "Zhuo Yu is not just missing a tendon, I'm afraid he only has one tendon on his body." But officially, it is the way of the sword. The sword is originally a straight line, and if you think too much, you can't practice the sword well. ”
Lu Zhengli said: "I don't understand. ”
The old man said, "You have to understand. You always have to understand. Although, I hope you don't understand. ”
Then, without waiting for Lu Zhengli to react, he touched his head, and then rubbed his face for a while.
Lu Zhengli struggled to get out of the old man's big hand, but when he heard a "click", he actually broke the old man's palm.
"I ...... I...... You...... Anterior ...... Senior!" Faced with this sudden change, Lu Zhengli didn't know how to deal with it for a while.
On the contrary, the old man smiled heartily: "It came out of a mold." ”
Then he sighed again: "The old man can't remember how many years he has been blind with these tricks, but at this moment, he regrets it for the first time, and wants to open his eyes and see what the bald Xiaotong looks like." ”
Lu Zhengli didn't catch the word "bald head", because the word "Xiaotong" made him feel even more sudden.
It was his mother's name.
He often heard his father mention it. Although they don't spend much time together, every time they have a rare family time, their father will remember it with him.
Xiaotong, Xiaotong, my Xiaotong.
He is also often said to be like the gentle princess.
He carefully looked at the old man in front of him, and the sense of familiarity became stronger and stronger, and finally through the pair of dull black eyes and the intricate beard on his face, he could clearly see the mighty face under the black mud stains, which coincided with the memories in the dream.
"You! You're Wang Buyu!" Lu Zhengli blurted out. He suddenly realized that the scene in the dream, the angle in the dream, did not seem to be his own, but the person in front of him.
Except for the picture when he met his mother, at other times, this person was looking at himself.
The old man was the Sword Immortal King Buyu who failed to assassinate the emperor in Zhaoyang Palace more than ten years ago and was detained by the collarbone of the master. In the past, the Son of Heaven was angry, ambushed millions of corpses, and the sword immortal was angry, but he could move mountains and seas.
Now, the legendary sword immortal who once wrote thousands of romances in the rivers and lakes is blind and broken, and it is not easy to even sit up.
Lost a lifetime of haggardness, only a few dusks.
He ignored Lu Zhengli's shouting at him, nor his broken right hand, but trembled and took out a jade pendant from his undershirt close to his chest.
This piece of jade pendant is muddy, the texture is ugly, and it looks like a low-grade product. The pattern is finely carved, the word "Tong" on it is strong and powerful, the corners and ravines are uniform and smooth, as if it were natural, and people who don't know how to do it can also see that this jade comes from the master's handwriting.
Although the jade is clumsy, it has been warmed for many years, not only the jade body is round, but also faintly exudes luster.
The old man said, "Take it." ”
Seeing that Lu Zhengli was unmoved, he forced it into Lu Zhengli's hand, leaned forward and the other severed palm could not support the ground, and then he was about to fall.
Lu Zhengli has been in a daze since he woke up, as if his body is not his own, and his mind is also chaotic, this time he finally reacted, did not pick up the jade pendant and picked up the old man first, and made a move as fast as lightning to hold the old man's arms to lift him up. The old man sensed that the jade pendant was about to land, so he changed his tired state, and quickly stretched out his broken palm and slapped it on the ground, but he held the palm of his hand behind the ground and caught the jade pendant.
Turned around and scolded angrily: "Bastard!"
Lu Zhengli was about to help the old man up again, but the old man was lying on the ground and refused to move, so Lu Zhengli had no choice but to pick up the jade pendant and hold it solemnly in his hand, and the old man turned over and continued to lie down with satisfaction.
Lu Zhengli wanted to call the old man, after all, this old man seemed to be withered, so it would not be an exaggeration to say that he had been nearly a hundred years. But the high-spirited merry sword fairy in the dream, at most this year, he knows his fate, if he is an ordinary farmer, he can be regarded as old, but in the rivers and lakes, this is just past the prime of life, so he learned to call his predecessor in green clothes and said: "The predecessor is the old man of the mother?"
The old man said: "The most deceased." ”
Lu Zhengli cherished the jade pendant in his hand, and the word "Tong" made him feel very kind, and he asked, "What is this jade pendant?"
The old man said, "Your mother gave it to me." She said that I have jade in my name, and I should bring a piece of jade with me. But she and I were both young and didn't have much money. I said that the master has a good piece of jade, and I will go and steal it. She's a cowardly person, and you're more like her in this regard. So he secretly made a March Female Red without telling me, and then changed this piece of jade. ”
This past, for the Sword Immortal Imperial Princess, was originally a shabby and embarrassing past, but the old man's expression was extremely proud. It seems that this clumsy jade is better than all the fame and power in the world.
For him, too. When he first met that man, he took out this jade pendant and showed it off to that man.
The man joked: "If I exchange this world with you, you will not change it." ”
Wang Buyu just glanced at him and said, "I haven't seen you eat garlic, how can you have such a big breath." Don't say that you can't handle it in this world, even if you really become the emperor one day, I won't change it with you if you beg me with the throne. ”
Later, the two parted ways, one became a sword immortal, and the other became an emperor.
On the day that man ascended the throne, he looked in the direction of Shushan and said softly in a voice that only he could hear.
"I want to trade with you. ”
