Chapter 122: Grass Heart (5)
"Fellow Daoist, let's stop, we will save this person's life. Chu Xunyu looked at a young scholar in front of him calmly, like himself, a monk in his infancy, the other party floated quietly in the air, ignoring the crowd chasing on the official road under his feet, staring at the person in front of him calmly, a pair of eyes seemed to be trying to observe something.
After looking at it for a long time, the man sighed, "You don't seem to be here for the four-leaf clover." ”
"Yes, yes. Chu Xunyu shook his head calmly.
"Then you have an old relationship with this kid?"
"No, we meet in the water. ”
"Then why do you do this?" the man looked surprised, "neither for things nor for old friends. ”
"Without it, it is not easy for Cang's life to live, since he bumped into him, he must save his life. ”
"Daoyou Dade, admire below, but all things in heaven and earth, all of them are connected by the word 'fate', you walk with those two strange predecessors, I know the difficulty and retreat, but I am unwilling to do so, so tonight, I will definitely come to ask for this opportunity, if there is no share, I will leave by myself, don't pass, in the meeting. After saying that, the young man bowed slightly, turned around and left.
Chu Xunyu glanced at his distant back stupidly, and sighed in his heart, the world is really obstinate, if you don't reach the south wall, you must fight hard, no matter what, let it be, if you unite with Elder Bingwu, you can't save Erhei's life, and you have nothing to say, do your best, know the destiny of heaven......
The same scene also happened in the clouds not far away, and Mu Yuan also persuaded another Yuan Infant Daoist friend to try to kill as little as possible without doing anything, but the only difference is that the person who came recognized Mu Yuan and automatically gave it to Xian, it seems that when the Yuxu Palace fought on the sword, Mu Yuan was really famous all over the world, and the Central Plains Bajun was not in vain.
Let's talk about Erhei, after being called away, he turned around and ran to the city, and the group of people who followed behind were no exception, and they also chased into the city quickly, but as soon as they entered the city gate, they all secretly screamed that it was broken, it turned out that the city in front of these monks was empty, and there was no one.
Some of these people were angry, and some were helpless and depressed, but the gap was clear, and they were powerless to break through such a profound formation.
At this time, Xiao Qi, a young man named Erhei who returned to the city, walked to the corner of the city with a calm demeanor, and met Chu Xunyu and Mu Yuan, who had been waiting for a long time, in an unobtrusive alley.
"Senior, how are things going?" Mu Yuan asked with a smile, "It's been a long time since I've run with my legs." ”
Xiao Qi glanced at him, and with a wave of his hand, he lifted the illusion, it turned out to be Wangchen, Wangchen said helplessly: "This time I went down the mountain, I was with you juniors, I have played everything, it is really worth the trip." ”
"Haha, that's how it should be. Mu Yuan looked quite proud, "How's the matter?" ”
"Naturally, I threw them into another space, and when it was over, I let them out. ”
"Okay, this place is full of people, so it's not appropriate to stay for a long time, let's go see Elder Ice Dance. Chu Xunyu frowned and proposed.
"Okay, let's go. ”
Erhei didn't know anything about it, he honestly returned to the fourth uncle's shop in the city, passed through the crowd of people, and as soon as he entered the door, he was seen by the fourth uncle, and the fourth uncle asked with a shocked face: "Erhei, why are you coming back so early?"
"Huh, didn't you ask Xiao Qi to call me back, Fourth Uncle?"
"No, I don't. The fourth uncle put down the guy in his hand, stood up straight, and looked around for a long time, "Xiao Qi, I didn't see anyone else, he hasn't been here since yesterday, it seems that the old lady is a little uncomfortable, why did he ask you to come back?"
"Ahh......h
"Shopkeeper, strike iron!"
"Oh, please inside. As soon as he heard the greeting, the fourth uncle couldn't care about Erhei, and immediately turned around to greet the guests.
The person who came was Elder Ice Dance, but she hid her breath, changed her dress, and brought a black hat to cover her face, just like a heroine. walked into the store and asked the fourth uncle directly: "Are you the shopkeeper?"
"Yes, do you want to buy goods, or do you want to repair the guys?" the fourth uncle replied immediately.
"Fix things. Bing Wu was not verbose, I don't know where to get a tattered big knife, and threw it directly on the table, "This is what my father left back then, I want to fix it, the price is negotiable, open it at will." ”
The fourth uncle picked it up and looked at it, and nodded seriously: "The knife is indeed a good knife, but it has been a long time, and the damage is more serious, but it doesn't matter, I will go out in person, and it will definitely be repaired, so you can rest assured." ”
"Fourth uncle, I'll go back to the shop first. When Erhei saw this situation, he also knew that it was indeed not the fourth uncle who asked him to come back, so he had to go back to work with a stupid face.
"Well, there you go. The fourth uncle responded casually.
"Wait!" Bing Wu stretched out his hand to stop Erhei, raised his hand, threw out a big ingot, and said to the fourth uncle, "The price is easy to say, but I have a request." ”
"Oh, you command, officer. The fourth uncle replied immediately.
"You can't do it. Bing Wu pointed at the fourth uncle and shook his hand, and pointed at Erhei, "I want him to repair." ”
"Huh?" The fourth uncle and Er Hei were taken aback, and the fourth uncle hurriedly said, "Guest officer, I'm afraid he ......"
"Well, didn't you say that your craftsmanship here is good, isn't he your apprentice?"
"It must be, I taught it single-handedly, but I'm still young, I'm afraid it's ......"
"That's okay, I'll ask him to repair it, just repair it here, this knife is just a memorial to my father, don't be so careful. Ice Dance immediately said categorically.
"Okay, Erhei, you're coming, but be careful. The fourth uncle reluctantly gave in, but he was muttering in his heart, what's wrong with this person, I don't want a good master, I just want a child to get it, but the money is too much, so let her go.
"Well, you can take it and do it. Ice Dance looked at Erhei and said lightly.
"Oh, oh. Erhei came back to his senses at this time, and hurriedly came over to pick up the knife, "Then I will do my best to do a good job." ”
"Yes. Bing Wu nodded, then ignored it, and turned her head to look out the door, as if waiting for someone.
When Erhei was knocking on the stove, Chu Xunyu and the three of them also arrived, and across the street, Mu Yuan shouted: "Miss Wu, it's you, such a coincidence!"
"Miss Wu?" Bing Wu wondered for a while, and then reacted, it turned out that the name Bing Wu came to his mouth, and he became Miss Wu, and immediately replied, "Little Brother Mu, it's you, what a coincidence." ”
"Little Brother Mu?" Mu Yuan's head was big for a while, it seemed that he was disguised as a mortal, and this Shushan elder still had to press himself.
The three of them then came into the shop, and the fourth uncle immediately greeted them: "How many people do you know?"
"Oh, no, we are looking for someone, we are old friends with this Miss Wu, we will meet today, so we must talk a few more words. Chu Xunyu immediately took some loose silver and stuffed it, "I hope the boss doesn't mind." ”
"Oh, it's okay, you talk, you talk, second son, tea. The fourth uncle immediately turned around and beckoned the guy to serve tea.
"Yo, Erhei is also there, you're busy, you're busy. Mu Yuan sat at the table, and saw Erhei striking iron in the inner room, and hurriedly waved his hand to signal him to continue to be busy, and he didn't need to come out, so he lowered his head and chatted with everyone.
After the tea came up, the idlers and others all retreated, Chu Xunyu accidentally saw the knife that Erhei was repairing, so he asked curiously in a whisper: "Senior Bingwu, your knife seems to be the knife of the previous dynasty, where did you find it?"
"Oh, is it?" Bing Wu was slightly stunned, glanced back, and said casually, "This was many years ago, and there is still a history, so I just waited for midnight, and I will tell you about it." ”
So Bing Wu told a story from the past: it is said that at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the Yuan and Mongolian dynasties were exhausted, the world was in chaos, riots broke out everywhere, bandits were rampant, and the people lived in dire straits, which was really miserable. And Elder Bing Wu happened to have something to do in Beihai, on the way back to the mountain gate, passing through Jinan, just on the shore of Daming Lake, met a ring of horse thieves robbing people's property, killing people and setting fire, Bing Wu is one of the elders of Shushan, of course, he can't turn a blind eye, so he went down to save people.
But Ice Dance was a step late, and when she landed, many houses had been burned down, and the horse thieves shouted everywhere to kill the heavens, and the adults were crying and children making trouble, a miserable situation, and Ice Dance couldn't help but sigh when she saw this, so she had to take action to drive away those horse thieves and save those mortals who were still alive.
In the whole process, there is one place that Bing Wu pays special attention to, that is, there is an old man, panting and waving a steel knife, to prevent these thieves from snatching his daughter, to fight against the crowd, but in the end, he is old and weak, or was killed by the thief, before dying, he still hugged the thief's thigh, swearing not to let them get close to his daughter.
His daughter, sixteen years old, was like a flower, and when she saw her father killed, she was so angry that she could not bear to be humiliated by the thieves, and finally committed suicide, and she was a strong woman.
When Bing Wu arrived, Dad was dying, and Bing Wu was helpless, when he was dying, Dad didn't know that his daughter had thrown himself into the well, and gasped and begged Bing Wu to save his daughter, and handed her the mottled steel knife in his hand, so that she could protect her children, and then she opened her eyes and died angrily.
Bing Wu took the knife in his hand, sighed for a long time, and didn't know the name of the old man, only saw the handle of the knife, engraved with a rough 'Wu' word, it is estimated that the father is also surnamed Wu, so he casually put it into his sleeve, these years, almost forgotten, if it is not used as a cover today, I really can't remember.
As he was talking, Erhei here ran over in a hurry, looked at the people present, looked at Bing Wu cautiously and asked, "Miss, your surname is Wu?"
"Huh?" Bing Wu was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that Mu Yuan had called himself that just now, so he had to say perfunctorily, "Well, yes, my surname is Wu, what's wrong?"
"Your family used to live on the shore of Daming Lake in Jinan?" Erhei was excited.
"What?" Ice Dance was stunned for a moment, and then everyone probably understood a little, it wouldn't be the descendants of those people that Ice Dance saved back then.
"The world is so big, it is nothing more than fate. The old god Wangchen took a sip of tea, and secretly thought in his heart that Erhei should be able to recognize the identity of Ice Dance next.
But Erhei mistakenly thought that Wangchen's words were admitting that he lived in Daming Lake for Bingwu, so he rubbed his hands with a flushed face, and looked at Bingwu speechless, Bingwu said impatiently: "Little brother has something to say, why should the man be so spittering." ”
"Then I'll say it. Erhei held back his strength, plucked up his courage and said, "What, I...... I am...... I'm Erhei. ”
"I know you're Erhei, what's wrong. Bing Wu frowned.
"It's not...... I mean......" Erhei stammered, "you...... Then you are my daughter-in-law...... You can't go wrong...... Didn't Daddy Wu tell you? You're my daughter-in-law...... I really didn't expect you to become a heroine...... You can still find me......"
"Flutter ......", including Wangchen, everyone squirted out a sip of tea, even the ice dance, the dignified generation of Shushan elders were stunned, thinking that Erhei was joking......
This is exactly what Wangchen said just now, the world is so big, it is nothing more than the word "fate......
