On a mountain not far from Gusu City, there is this quiet Taoist temple. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The mountains are high and the weather is cold, and the peach blossoms only bloom sporadically.

The Taoist temple enshrines Erlang Xiansheng Zhenjun, but it is just a clay statue, and there is no luxury style. The Taoist temple is remote, and there is only one sheep intestine trail at the bottom of the mountain, so no one usually comes.

Only occasionally on Taoist festivals, some believers from all over the world will come from afar to send some firewood and rice.

This Taoist temple is not big, it is a jungle view, and there are often passing Taoist priests to stop and rest. At present, there are only four people living in the permanent residence, an elderly Dao Gu, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, and two young Dao Gu.

The young man's name is Ah Niu, and he was picked up by the old Taoist aunt in the mountains when she went down the mountain a few years ago. She saw that the child was able-bodied and obedient, so she brought it over to be a companion for her lonely old age, and casually took the name of A Niu.

Ah Niu is not only able-bodied, not stupid, even quite clever, and handsome, the old Dao Gu can't figure out how parents can leave such a boy who is only four or five years old in the field.

Since then, Ah Niu has been living in the Taoist temple with the old Taoist aunt. He is lively and active, he is the pistachio of the old Daogu, and he is also a good helper who helps the old Daogu carry water and grow vegetables on weekdays.

The days of the old and the young living together lasted until three years ago. The two young Dao Gu, who themselves said were a pair of sisters, grew up in a nunnery in the north, and later after the death of the old Dao Gu who raised them, they began to travel in all directions. The older one is called Hui Jing, and the smaller one is called Hui Qing.

The two people were brought back by Ah Niu, who went to the town to buy things that day, and the money was stolen. He thought that there would be no rice in the Taoist temple since the day before yesterday, so he planned to take credit first.

Who knew that the store wouldn't allow it, so he picked up a bag of rice and ran away, saying as he ran, I'll send you money tomorrow.

The owner of the rice shop was not easy to talk to, so he immediately greeted a few guys and caught up.

Ah Niu went to the foot of the mountain to meet the two Taoist aunts.

At that time, Huiqing grabbed him and threw him into the bushes, avoiding the pursuit of several people.

When he almost lost his voice and shouted, he was shut by the little Taoist aunt.

It was urgent, and he didn't even realize that he had just hit his foot.

Although he is a rough and stout young man, it is still very difficult to carry a bag of rice up the mountain on the premise of breaking his foot.

When the two sisters, who had planned to say goodbye, turned around and were about to leave, the older one saw Ah Niu's limping steps and stopped, and gave the younger one a look.

Huiqing, who followed her sister's gaze, saw the trouble she had made, stuck out her tongue, rolled up her sleeves, and snatched the rice bag on Ah Niu's shoulder.

She said to her sister: Sister, I'll send him back, such a thin boy, I guess I won't be able to go down for a month if I go back like this.

Hui Jing didn't answer, just nodded silently in agreement.

After asking where Ah Niu lived, the younger Dao Gu took the initiative to carry the rice, and the three of them walked up the mountain together.

When I arrived at the Taoist temple on the mountain, it was only half an afternoon.

The time was actually early, and after thanking the two young people, the old Taoist insisted on keeping them for the night.

The two of them didn't refuse, they stayed for one night, but the next day they had no intention of leaving. There were originally many Taoist priests in the Taoist temple of the old Taoist aunt, so they were left. Besides, she lives here with Ah Niu, and it's quite lonely, so it's not bad to have two more companions.

March 3 is Hui Jing's birthday, she has always been quiet and self-contained, and on this day, she just played two tunes by herself in the room.

The piano was brought by herself, and it was probably an extremely precious thing, and no one was allowed to touch it in normal times.

Three years have passed, and Ah Niu has grown into a tall teenager. In the past few years, he has learned a lot from the two sisters, Huijing and Huiqing.

Since he went down the mountain three years ago, Ah Niu has not gone down the mountain again, and he has been thinking about the bag of rice money.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to finally go down the mountain to buy on this day, Ah Niu was ready to go to the rice shop owner to repay the money.

It's just that time has changed, and that store has long since disappeared. What used to be the location of the rice shop is now an inn.

Bai Qian was packing his luggage and leaving the room, when he saw a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy standing at the door, looking at the inn signboard with a lonely expression.

Bai Qianqian passed by the young man, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw a dart flying out of the inn, heading straight for the young man's life.

Almost instinctively, the white front one took off and retreated in front of the boy.

Ah Niu thought about how there was such a man in white in front of him for no reason, and he was so close, so he became a little vigilant.

He politely took a few steps back, trying to avoid the personal distance that had been violated.

As a result, he was stopped by two people, a man and a woman, who came out of the inn.

The man said, "Boy, stand up and make me a target, you can't go anywhere." ”

When he heard him say this, Ah Niu saw that Bai Qian's half-raised hand, between his two fingers, was holding a dart in the shape of a bamboo leaf.

Bai Qian's face was facing the light, as calm as autumn water, and he couldn't see any expression.

He turned his back to the man and woman and did not turn around.

Then the man who came out of the inn arched his hand towards Bai Qian's indifferent back, and said: "The hero is very skilled, in the lower aunt Su Lucheng, dare to ask the hero's surname?"

No one in Gusu City didn't know the name of the Lu family, and even Bai Qian, who had never cared much about the rivers and lakes, had roughly guessed the identity of the man and woman.

Bai Qian was facing Ah Niu at the moment, with his back to the inn, and at this time he just asked Ah Niu at the beginning: "Are you a descendant of their Lu family?"

Ah Niu shook his head and denied it.

Bai Qian turned to face the pair of men and women in the Lu family, raised his hands and fists, and said respectfully: "The people in the family don't know where they offended the two, and please have a lot of them, don't worry about him." ”

Ah Niu was stunned, and he happened to be clearly seen by the man and woman.

The woman said, "I don't know you at all. Boy, do you know his name?"

Ah Niu finally reacted at this time, saying that I have followed my young master for more than ten years, how could I not know his name.

A shallow smile rose at the corner of her mouth, the girl of the Lu family, who is young and beautiful, is only seventeen or eighteen years old, and her personality has a bit of a flying and domineering meaning.

When she saw Bai Qian turn around, she was shocked. Bai Qian's calm temperament with a little vicissitudes of life quickly attracted her.

So at this time, she had lost interest in Ah Niu, and only thought about how to keep Bai Qian.

Ignoring Ah Niu's explanation, she said: "Today, unless you win me, either of you two, don't want to leave." ”

Bai Qian's heart was full of complaints, he was just out of the inertia of years of martial arts practice, and he didn't plan to spend a little more time in this place at all. Doesn't it mean that the Lu family is a big family in the martial arts, a famous family. How can there be such an unreasonable junior.

He glanced at Ah Niu with a sad face, Ah Niu was still aggrieved, and he almost died when he stood at the door of someone's store.

In Bai Qian's eyes, Ah Niu understood what he meant, what he meant, let's run separately.
