Ten years ago.

In the tenth winter wax moon, heavy snow falls.

A rich man in the town was accumulating virtue and doing good deeds for himself, and he built a porridge shack and boiled a large pot full of steaming white porridge.

All around were crowded beggars, old and young, all desperately fighting for a bowl of white porridge, and if it weren't for the many fierce and vicious house slaves around, I am afraid they would have been in chaos long ago.

Next to the humble porridge shed, there was a young child, leaning against the porridge shed, looking into the distance.

This child was also covered with mud, his hair looked like it hadn't been washed for a long time, it was a mess, and his body was wrapped in several layers of single clothes, and he should have shivered in the cold wind, but he looked into the distance calmly.

Young, but old.

A pair of feet stood in front of the young man, the young man raised his head, and saw a face that had been through vicissitudes, the young man smiled at the old man, and his eyes drifted into the distance again.

"Why don't you go and get the porridge?" asked the old man. The child was in this environment, and the old man put himself in his shoes and thought about whether he could still laugh at a stranger, and laugh so purely, so calmly.

"I can already feel the warmth of the fire here, why should I fight with others for that mouthful of porridge?" When the young man replied to the old man's words, he tried to stand up, but he staggered with all his might, and his legs were already numb.

The young man had no choice but to smile apologetically at the old man.

These two smiles laughed into the depths of the old man's heart, and the old man waved his hand and motioned for him to sit down, "Why don't you fight?"

"I'm content. The boy smiled with satisfaction again.

is content, how many people are chasing fame and fortune all their lives because they can't see through these three words, but in the end it is empty.

The old man felt that his heart was melted by his smile, and he didn't even notice that his tone was getting softer and gentle, as if he was talking to his little granddaughter.

"What if someone else fights with you?" the old man said in as gentle a tone as he could, so as not to frighten the face that could smile like that.

"Hmm......" the boy lowered his head and thought for a moment, "I don't fight with others, and I don't care if anyone fights with me!"

I fight for everyone will fight, I strive for may not get, I may not let those who let go, try to let may not lose!

"What's your name?" the old man laughed as well.

"All I know is that my surname is Wei. The young man's legs finally eased, and although he still staggered to hold on to the shed, he did stand up, and he felt that it was rude for him to speak to an old gentleman, and the old gentleman was standing and sitting by himself.

"Will you follow me?" the old man held out a hand to him.

The boy hesitated, "Is there anything I can do for you?"

"Just because you can't do it now doesn't mean you can't in the future. ”

The boy thought for a moment, "Okay, I'll go with you." The boy put his hand in the old man's big hand.

The old man felt like an ice cube had been placed on his hand.

It's so cold, it's so cold to the depths of people's bone marrow!

The boy only felt a force from his big hand into his body, and his body that did not obey the call because of the cold gradually recovered.

I don't know if it's because of the old man's internal strength, or because the ice in his heart has melted.

Along the way, the old man told him a lot of things about himself, and the young man also knew that this old man was the fourth elder of the Tang Sect, Li Chunfeng.

"In this case, I'll give you a name, let's call it Wei Suo. Li Chunfeng took the young man's hand and said with a smile as he walked.

"Wei Suo...... Lewd ......" Wei Suo's mouth lingered for a while, "Okay!" and smiled as well, "Why did the elder give me this name?

Li Chunfeng's hand holding Wei Suoyi never let go, he turned his head and said with a smile: "Call me Master in the future, you are my first personal disciple." ”

Wei Suo replied obediently, "Okay, Master." ”

Li Chunfeng nodded with satisfaction and asked rhetorically, "Do you think there is anything wrong with this name?"

Wei Suo smiled: "It's just a little strange." ”

Of course, he didn't think that Li Chunfeng thought he was a lewd person.

Li Chunfeng did not answer his words directly, but said slowly: "Master also had a master before. ”

"This is natural, just like an apprentice may have an apprentice in the future. Wei Suo interjected.

Li Chunfeng smiled again, did not blame him for talking too much, and continued: "My master does things completely by his own heart, and sometimes he does things that the world does not understand very well, but our senior brothers are used to it. ”

"The world is not as enlightened as the ancestors. ”

Li Chunfeng pinched Wei Suo's little hand, although the weather was still goose feathers and heavy snow, Wei Suo's hand was already a little warm, and it was no longer like a piece of ice.

"You can interject so casually when you're with me, but when it's time for the Tang Sect to talk to other old pedantics, don't do that. ”

Wei Suo nodded, "This is natural." ”

"When my master was in his early years, he had a friendship with an animal for eight years, and the old man also gave his brother the name 'Crane Dao Chief', what kind of animal do you say I, Uncle Crane?"

"I'm just a man of the world, I think Uncle Shi should be an immortal crane. ”

"Haha, Uncle Xianhe's real body is indeed a spirit ape, so I named you 'Wei Suo', and I also want to commemorate my master. My name is just a code name, my name is Li Chunfeng, is it the hexagram of the Tang Dynasty? I don't know anything about divination. Haha, do you understand?"

Wei Suo nodded as if he didn't understand, Li Chunfeng knew that he didn't fully understand, but he didn't care either.

Although Wei Suo has seen the warmth and coldness of the world and tasted all kinds of life, he is still just a child. How can a child understand such a profound Zen machine?

In fact, when I was a child, I saw through so much, which can also be said to be a great sadness.

"Can you tell your story to the teacher?" Li Chunfeng knew that a child who had no special experience would not have such a deep understanding as Wei Suo.

"My family was originally from Kyoto, the imperial capital was mostly official eunuchs, and the disciple's family was originally a scholar in An'an, but nothing happened to find the door, but I couldn't hide, the family road was ruined, my parents sent me out of the imperial capital before leaving, I was alone, floating around, and came to this country of abundance, so I had the fate to meet the master. ”

Although it was only a few simple sentences, Li Chunfeng knew that his experience could not be finished in a few words, and it would be more than 108,000 miles for a child to come to this Shu land, and the difficulties in this were self-evident. Without extraordinary intelligence and perseverance, we would not be able to persist in the present.

"The past has passed, from today onwards, you are my Li Chunfeng's disciple, Wei Suo. After that, it's a fresh start, can you do it?"

"Well, the disciple has done it!" Looking at Wei Suo's excited smile, Li Chunfeng smiled with satisfaction.

The wind is still howling, and the snow is still falling.

Wei Suo looked up at the sky and found that although the sky was full of snowflakes, behind the gray clouds, the sky was exceptionally blue, Wei Suo had not found it before, the sky was so blue.
