Volume 1 The First Entry into the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 23 Protect Her Thoroughly

Li Zhichen trotted all the way, and when he was still some distance away from the dilapidated hut, he saw black smoke rising from the courtyard of the hut. Li Yichen was shocked in his heart, the place where he lived was on fire! Then the old man Su would not still be sleeping soundly on the bed! Although the old man Su was unscrupulous, but on the whole it was still good, thinking that the old man Su was in danger of being burned to death, Li Yichen hurriedly took three steps and two steps towards the dilapidated hut.

Li Yichen ran into the wooden house out of breath, but the scene he imagined did not happen, and what caught his eye was an old man sitting in the courtyard, building a stove out of stones, and baking something like a clod of earth on it. The old man fanned the flames with the fan in his hand, and kept adding firewood to the fire.

"Old man Su, what are you doing!" Li Yichen said angrily.

Old man Su was startled, hurriedly turned his head to look, and was relieved when he found that it was Li Yichen, and scolded angrily: "Old man, I'm hungry, what's wrong with baking something to eat by yourself! Li Zhichen was even more angry when he heard the old man's words, "I saw black smoke from afar, I thought it was on fire! I was worried that you would be burned to death, and I ran over to save you!"

The old man was stunned for a moment, smiled and said: "Hehe, okay, count it my old man's fault, come on, come on, please eat this called flower chicken! It's delicious!

Li Yichen was really a little hungry when he heard the old man say this, and it took a lot of effort to compete with Su Pingling just now, and he was already hungry at this time. Without refusal, he sat on the ground, "Are you almost ripe?"

The old man grinned, "It's ripe, it's ripe!" After saying that, he took the clod of soil from the fire, and threw the clod of soil on the ground with all his might, and the clod of soil cracked one after another. The old man peeled off the clod of soil along the gap, and there was a lotus leaf inside, and the old man peeled off the lotus leaf, and the fragrance called flower chicken came to his nose! Old man Su tore off a chicken leg and handed it to Li Yichen, and then he tore off the other chicken leg and ate it by himself.

Li Yichen swallowed a mouthful of saliva, looked at the fragrant chicken legs, and said softly: "I have been a flower child for so many years, and I have never eaten a flower chicken, but now I don't have it, but I eat it." ”

The old man didn't feel so much, and while eating, he muttered that it would be nice to have two more glasses of wine. Li Yichen was really hungry, so he ate only a chicken leg to the bone in two or three strokes, wiped the oil on his mouth, and suddenly the whole person was agitated, stared at the old man and asked, "Where did you get this chicken?" The old man said freely: "Caught on the mountain, you can eat it with confidence." ”

Li Yichen tore off another chicken wing suspiciously, and said to the old man: "By the way, your granddaughter, you had to force me to compete with her just now." ”

The old man stopped what he was doing, looked at Li Yichen and asked, "Have you compared with her?"

Li Yichen nodded, "It's compared." The old man heard Li Yichen's words and started eating again, muttering as he ate: "Oh, let's lose." ”

Li Yichen first shook his head, and then nodded again, "At the beginning, when I only used the Qingguang Sword Technique, I didn't lose, but then she used the Sword Technique I don't know what it was called, and I saw that the wooden sword was a dark blue sword intent, and I lost with one move." ”

The old man laughed directly, "What did you say, Li Doll? You didn't lose with the Qingguang Sword Technique at the beginning? Listen to you, this means that my granddaughter lost? Have you ever used a sword before?

"He wasn't wrong, I lost. Before Li Yichen could speak, Su Pingling's voice came from behind the two.

Old man Su looked back at his granddaughter and hurriedly kicked down the makeshift stove in front of him, extinguished the fire, and said with a smile to Su Pingling: "Ling'er, why did you come back so early today." ”

Su Pingling ignored the old man, but stared at Li Yichen's eyes and asked, "You really have never practiced swords before?"

Li Yichen shook his head, "Never." Su Pingling stared at Li Yichen's eyes like that, as if he wanted to see something from them, and after a moment of silence, his jade teeth opened slightly, "Go with me to see Master Zun tomorrow." Li Yichen smiled and shook his head, "Thank you Senior Sister Su for your kindness, I like handymen, besides, if I leave, won't so much work be piled up on your grandfather, and I can still help him share some of it." ”

Old man Su hurriedly said: "Yes, if Li Doll leaves, then I won't be tired to death my old man, your granddaughter, this is not married yet, why did your elbow turn out!"

The old man's words made Su Pingling's face red, his face was full of coquettishness, and he glared at the old man, "Grandpa, what are you!" Li Yichen also glared at the old man, and scolded in his mouth: "The old man is endless." Old man Su shrugged his shoulders and didn't care at all.

Su Pingling was silent for a while, although what his grandfather said was a bit excessive, but it was not unreasonable, grandpa was really overworked when he was old enough to do so many chores every day, and Li Yichen could still share some of it for his grandfather, but Li Yichen's talent was amazing, if he was allowed to waste a lot of energy on work, it would not only be a loss to himself, but also a loss to Tianquan Sect. Su Pingling hurriedly shook his head, put away his distracting thoughts, and secretly scolded himself, how could he strangle a kendo genius because he didn't want his grandfather to be affected!

Su Pingling said to Li Yichen: "No, I will tell Shizun truthfully about this matter, let him make a decision, and I will ask the sect to recruit a few more people to help grandpa." ”

With that, he turned and left. The two of them stared at each other with big eyes, not knowing what to say.

The old man was silent for a moment, and then asked Li Zhichen, "Li Doll, how old is this year?" Li Zhichen thought for a while and replied, "Fifteen." ”

The old man nodded, "How did you become a beggar?

Li Yichen took a bite of chicken, "I don't know, I want to eat for as long as I can remember, and I have been asking for it for many years, and I have a younger sister, who is not a relative, I picked it up." ”

The old man smiled, "You can't support yourself yourself, and you picked up an oil bottle?" "She's not a drag bottle. Li Yichen looked at Su Laohan and said seriously.

The old man nodded noncommittally and motioned for Li Yichen to continue. "Before I met my sister, I had a messy day every day, I fought with dogs and grabbed food, maybe one day I felt bored, so I picked a snowy day to lie outside the broken temple and settled. But after I had a sister, I had a goal to live, and I knew that I couldn't die, and if I did, she wouldn't survive. Li Yichen said.

"Then why did you enter the door?" asked the old man.

"To protect her. ”

"Protected?"

"If you can't protect it, you have to protect it. ”

The old man looked at the young man's immature but resolute face, sighed and said, "Your sister, this life is destined to be extraordinary, are you credible?" The young man nodded and said sonorously, "I believe it!"

"If you want to protect her thoroughly, it's difficult! You only have a few veins on the spot? Not to mention the Dan Casting Bone, which are the last two Rendu two veins, how many years and months will you have to get through!" said the old man.

Li Yichen was silent, he seemed to have a very high kendo talent, but this martial arts talent was not a little bit worse!

The old man stabbed Li Yichen with his greasy hand, "Li Doll, how about I give you an idea!"

Li Yichen looked at Old Man Su and said disdainfully: "You unscrupulous old man, give me ideas, I'm afraid it's not going to eat which pets again!"

Old man Su waved his hand, "Hey, how can you talk! What is an unscrupulous old man, I have a true temperament! Old man, I will tell you something serious, listen or not!"

Li Yichen squinted at the old man and said lightly: "Let's hear it." ”

The old man looked left and right, found that there was no one, and said in a low voice: "You are a handyman! You have to do the work of cleaning, chopping wood, and carrying water, and the focus is on this cleaning!" Li Yichen frowned and said puzzledly: "What do you say?"

The old man continued with a look of hatred: "There is a tower in the Tianquan Sect, called the Scripture Pavilion, which is full of martial arts collected by the Daomen from all over the world for hundreds of years, and it is heavily guarded here, and no one is allowed to approach without the order of the sect master! But except for someone, that is the miscellaneous servants! The books of the Scripture Pavilion are afraid of ants, insects, water, and fire, so they need to be cleaned up, and this work is naturally handed over to our miscellaneous servants to do!" Miscellaneous servants need to check and search their bodies when they enter and leave the Sutra Pavilion to prevent the theft of the exercises, but if you have the ability to never forget and go in and find a book of exercises and keep it in your heart, doesn't that mean that you have taken this exercise out of the Scripture Pavilion! No matter how you check it, he will not find out what you have in mind!"

Li Yichen was silent for a moment, as if thinking about whether this method was feasible, and asked hesitantly, "Is this ...... Okay?"

Old man Su smiled, "Old man, I have done my best to be benevolent and righteous, as for whether to do it or not, it depends on you." If you have a good book of exercises, you can get through the second vein of Rendu in one or two days, and enter the realm of making pills and casting bones, and you will be one step closer to your wish to protect your sister's thoughtfulness; if you don't have a good book of exercises, with your qualifications, you can enter the pill making in three or five years are all blessed by the ancestors, as for when you can protect your sister Zhouquan, ten years, twenty years?

When Li Yichen heard this, he clenched his hands into fists and gritted his teeth to make a decision! "Okay! As long as I can protect my sister well, I will do whatever it takes!"

Li Yichen paused, and suddenly looked up at the old man with a blank face, "Old man Su..... But I ......"

Old man Su looked at Li Yichen's hesitant appearance, frowned and said, "Li Doll, how can you be a mother-in-law, what can you do with such a state of mind?"

"It's not..... I don't know how to read!" Li Yichen said with a signature scratch on the back of his head.

The old man was stunned when he heard this, "Alas!" A long sigh spread throughout the small courtyard.

"The old man I can read, but I teach you to read in vain, the old man is uncomfortable, so let's do it, if you can get wine for the old man, the old man and I will teach you to read, this matter, it makes sense." Old man Su said lightly.

Li Yichen nodded hurriedly, "Okay, Old Man Su, this is what you said, if I get you wine, you will teach me to read!"

The old man spat on the ground, waved his hand, and went into the house to sleep again.....
