The words say:

The bitter rain destroys and withers thousands of purples, and the spring breeze does not call a thousand reds. Flowers fly away in a hurry. If you are not looking for a guest, what is the trace?

Fate has been indebted, and life encircles life. Autumn frost dyes are already winter baking. Zhu Yan's heart was broken, and he had three cups of white-haired wine.

Gossip, turn around, talk about the time.

That Shi Qiangsheng said to the dervishes: "Since you have found here to take revenge, let's settle it in a battle!"

When the dervish heard this, he said, "Don't rush to fight first, what's your name?"

Shi Qiangsheng said proudly: "My surname is Shi, and my name is Shi Qiangsheng." ”

The dervishes said: "It turns out that you are Brother Cuigu! For the sake of Cuigu's face, if you shoot me an arrow, forget it." What's more, you are very sad that your wife is dead!"

Shi Qiangsheng said angrily: "Dervishes, although I, Shi Qiangsheng, didn't know you earlier, but later I also heard that you are a powerful character who is famous all over the world. However, I, Shi Qiangsheng, do not live by the pity of others. I, Shi Qiangsheng, can't beat you, and I'm going to fight too! Come on, come on, I'll fight you alone!"

When the dervish monk heard this, he laughed and said, "Shi Qiangsheng, you shot me an arrow, not me shot an arrow at you." It's me who gave up looking for you for revenge, it's not that you gave up looking for me!

The revenge of one arrow, in my eyes, is nothing, just a mosquito bite. I came to you tonight only because during the day, when you saw me, your eyes were evasive, and I was curious to find out.

After all, if you want to talk about heads-up, even if I stand here and don't move, you can't defeat me! In today's world, no one can hurt me. ”

When Shi Qiangsheng heard this, he just thought that the dervishes were laughing at him, and said angrily: "Don't boast!

Saying that, Shi Qiangsheng was about to do it.

At this time, in the mountain village, the sound of roosters was already heard. In the sound of the rooster's crow, the sound of horses' hooves sounded crisply, getting closer and closer.

Shi Qiangsheng wondered, who came up to the mountain so early? Could it be that Su Jingjing repaid Li Shijun, and Li Shijun sent someone to look for him?

Thinking of this, Shi Qiangsheng said: "Dervishes, you wait a while, wait for me to see who the people who come up from the mountain are, and then I will compete with you." ”

Who is the person who came down the mountain suddenly? But it is Liu Xiaobang'er and his wife. He and his wife, according to the dervishes's explanation, really went to the Daling County in front, found the Yile Bin Inn, and stayed.

After staying down, I saw the first shift, and Xiao Bang'er gave the bowl to Lu Sanya to support, and said: "Sanya, Abba has been gone for a while, why haven't you come back yet?"

Lu Sanya also said: "Yes, it's been a while. ”

Xiao Stick said: "Could it be that Abba is in trouble?"

Lu Sanya said: "Are you in the water? In today's world, if our Abba is not the highest person, then who else can surpass Abba and dare to be called the first? Abba is an immortal, and everyone else is a mortal, don't you want to think about it, how big is the gap between this?"

When the little stick heard this, he smiled and said, "Yes." ”

So he and his husband and wife sat down and cultivated with peace of mind. No, in the fourth watch, Lu Sanya's hand was empty, and the bowl flew away.

Lu Sanya woke up Xiao Bang'er at that time: "Xiao Bang'er, Abba is in trouble, summon the bowl and leave!"

Xiao Bang'er woke up at that time, and after hearing what Lu Sanya said, he said, "Let's hurry up and find Abba." ”

The two of them hurriedly got up, packed up, and went out of the Yile Binbin. Lu Sanya said: "Little stick, where are we going to find it?"

Xiao Bang'er said: "Go to the village store you passed by yesterday and ask where the man is, won't you understand?"

So the two of them galloped on horseback, and when they arrived at the village store, they had not yet made the fourth watch.

In the village store, the old couple also got up early. It's just that the doors haven't opened yet. Lu Sanya stepped forward and shouted at the door.

The door opened, and Lu Sanya asked, "Hey, your eldest lady, where is the man with two boys in your house yesterday evening?"

As soon as Xu Da and his wife heard Lu Sanya's question, their tone was anxious and they didn't seem to be good, so they had the heart to cover up Shi Xiaoqiang (the locals only know Shi Xiaoqiang, but they don't know that his original name is Shi Qiangsheng).

How do you cover it? The old couple then pretended that their ears were not good.

Lu Sanya's temperament is not gentle, so he hurriedly said at the time: "Don't be rambling, hurry up and make it clear, otherwise, I will smash your little shitty shop!"

Xu Da Lao and his wife heard it: Ouch, dare to love this is the king of female women, look at her like this, she is still carrying a sword, and the man in the back is also carrying a sword, these two are so scary! Come on, Xiaoqiang, it's not that the uncle and aunt don't help you, we can't afford to provoke these two people.

So, the little stick and his wife inquired clearly, and went up the mountain. Leaving Xu Da and his wife there to wonder: When did Shi Xiaoqiang offend this kind of person?

Not long after, Liu Xiaobang'er and Lu Sanya came to the village and went to the first family in the village.

Although Shi Qiangsheng couldn't see who it was, but the two rode towards his house, but he could see it clearly, and he was panicked at that time, and he didn't care about competing with the dervishes, so he rushed to his house.

So, the dervish monk's family of three all arrived in front of Shi Qiangsheng's house.

Shi Qiangsheng shouted, "What do you two do?"

didn't want these two to ignore Shi Qiangsheng, so they only shouted to the person behind Shi Qiangsheng: "Abba!"

Shi Qiangsheng listened, and when he turned around, he almost touched the dervish with his face! Shi Qiangsheng was shocked, retreated, and found that the dervish was still following him!

Shi Qiangsheng was furious: "Dervishes, I, Shi Qiangsheng, know that I am not your opponent, and you also brought your son to deal with me?"

The dervishes laughed, "You know it's not my opponent." ”

Before Xiao Stick could speak, Lu Sanya had already asked, "Your name is Shi Qiangsheng?"

Shi Qiangsheng said coldly: "What, is there anything wrong with me calling Shi Qiangsheng?"

Lu Sanya still wanted to speak, and the dervishes said, "Little stick, Sanya, let's go." When I arrived at Dadu Mountain, I told you Uncle Cui that his brother was here, that is. ”

Shi Qiangsheng was very surprised when he heard this: "What is the relationship between you and my sister? Why did he call my sister 'Uncle Cui'?"

The dervishes smiled and said: "Your sister, when she was cultivating in the Li family's big mountain and Xiao Li Nunnery, her master saw that she was my uncle, so your sister is my junior sister, and my son and daughter-in-law naturally call your sister 'Uncle Cuigu'!"

As soon as the dervish monk said this, Shi Qiangsheng stayed for a long time.

The dervishes family of three went down the mountain, and the little stick and his wife rode on horseback, but the dervishes walked.

Suddenly, Shi Qiangsheng shouted to the three members of the dervishes: "You go slowly, I also want to see my sister!"

The little stick couple listened, reined in the horse, and turned back. The dervish also turned around and said, "Okay, we have exactly three horses, and you can ride one of you, and I will walk on foot." ”

So, Shi Qiangsheng returned to the house, woke up the two sons, put on their clothes, and took them out. The dervish family of three had already turned around and were waiting at the door.

Shi Qiangsheng took his two sons and said to the dervishes: "Please wait a while, I want to take my son to say goodbye to Yuyu!"

The dervishes smiled and said, "You go, we'll wait for you." ”

So Shi Qiangsheng took his two sons, and then went to Yuyu's grave, Shi Qiangsheng was full of pain, and said softly: "Yuyu, I took my son to Beihai Dadu Mountain, and I will come to see you next year." ”

Shi Qiangsheng asked his son to kowtow to the grave again. That Huanhuan knocked down, Lele was only more than a year old, and Shi Qiangsheng held him in his arms and made him kowtow.

After the two sons kowtowed, Shi Qiangsheng hugged one and pulled the other, took the two sons, walked back, and followed the dervish family of three down the mountain. When passing by the village store, he thanked the owner of the village store, Xu Da and his wife, and left with the dervishes.

I didn't want Na Ah Sui, barked "Wangwang", and ran closely, so Shi Qiangsheng said to the dervishes: "My family Ah Sui, very humane, I'll take it, do you agree?"

The dervish monk smiled and said, "It's okay to bring it, when I want to open meat, I'll kill it and eat meat!"

Shi Qiangsheng said angrily: "You dare! If you kill it, I will fight with you!"

But it was the little stick that took it and said, "Uncle Shi, don't take it seriously! My father is joking." Uncle Shi, how does this Ah Sui understand human nature?"

When Shi Qiangsheng heard this, he remembered the past again, his face turned pale, and he sighed and said: "It is extremely human, I know." Then, Shi Qiangsheng was silent.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Xiao Stick didn't ask any more, and everyone just hurried forward.

On the road, Shi Qiangsheng was speechless, and the dervishes roared again. It's Xiao Bang'er and Lu Sanya, the husband and wife have no children, and they are very affectionate to the two children. Especially Lu Sanya, who has a cheerful personality, has been close to the two children on the road.

Lu Sanya always held Lele in her arms and kissed her little face, making Lele giggle. Huanhuan sometimes rides with Shi Qiangsheng, sometimes sits in the arms of Xiao Bang'er, however, he likes to sit in Lu Sanya's arms the most. A child's heart is really easy to be happy.

Several people came to Dadu Mountain, and when they arrived at the True Confucian Residence, the dervishes shouted when they were far away: "Senior Sister Cuigu, who are you looking for?"

Li Wenshan was in retreat, but Cuigu came out in response and said hello to the dervishes' family, and when she saw Shi Qiangsheng, she was stunned:

I saw Shi Qiangsheng, his hair was white, his face was full of dust, his expression seemed to be sad and numb, and at first glance he was actually a man forty miles away, but the eyebrows and eyes could be seen at a glance that this was his brother.

- I haven't seen you for a few years!

It's not just the streamer urging to go, the old man is easy to white.

How many sad things in the world, a few autumn frosts into the mirror.

Who is not heroic, and there is a strong man mourning in the life of Huagai.

The turbid wine glass is sad and difficult to laugh about.

Cuigu's heart was sour, tears welled up in her eyes, and she asked, "Brother, what's wrong?

Shi Qiangsheng listened to Cuigu's question, his lips moved, but he didn't say that he was ugly, and it took half a day to wake up like a dream, pulling Huanhuan, and pointing to Lele in Lu Sanya's arms, and said:

"Sister, this one is big, called Huanhuan, and Mrs. Lu is holding the small one, called Lele, my son. ”

Aunt Cuigu didn't expect that after a few years of separation, her brother would have two sons! But Aunt Cui was puzzled in her heart, when her brother and sister were separated and her brother was unmarried, how could she have a six- or seven-year-old son in just over three years?

Aunt Cui was inexplicable, and couldn't help asking, "Brother, you're here, where is your sister-in-law?"

Unexpectedly, Shi Qiangsheng heard this question and said sadly: "Your sister-in-law, Yuyu her, she ......"

As soon as Aunt Cui saw Shi Qiangsheng's tone, her heart sank: "Sister-in-law, what's wrong with her?"

Shi Qiangsheng finally said: "I was killed by Li Shijun!"

When Cui Gu heard this, it was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day!

He is Li Shijian's younger brother, and if he marries into the Li family, Li Shijun will be his brother-in-law; however, in front of him, this middle-aged and angry man is actually only in his twenties, and he is his own brother.

His brother had a feud with that person's brother, and his sister-in-law was killed by that person's brother!

This is really sad! It hurts both family and love. Shi Cuicui's heart tossed and turned, but she said: "Brother, let's come to the house first." ”

......

Li Wenshan retreated, and Shi Cuigu was in charge of all the affairs of the True Confucian Residence, so she arranged for her brother, father and son to live with the dervishes and a family of three.

The next day, Shi Qiangsheng insisted on moving out of the True Confucian Residence, going to the back of the Cuiwei Pavilion on the mountain, and living alone.

Cui Gu asked again and again, but Shi Qiangsheng was no longer the character he used to be, he didn't like to talk, and he was like a dumb person. When he asked in a hurry, he didn't say a word, and when he asked again, he said, "It's not convenient for me to live with your people." ”

Cui Gu was helpless, and said with tears in her eyes: "Brother, why is it inconvenient?

Shi Qiangsheng only said, "I said that it is inconvenient to live here, but it is inconvenient." ”

Shi Qiangsheng cut down bamboo by himself, and after Cuiwei Pavilion on the mountain, he built a bamboo house by himself. When Cui Gu saw it, she had to ask the real Confucian scholars to help build it together.

Cui Gu asked the dervish monk again, where did she meet her brother?

As soon as the dervishes told the ins and outs, Cuigu learned that after his brother was captured by Chen Zhiyuan's army, he was promoted to a general by Chen Zhiyuan, and he also shot an arrow at the dervishes.

After listening to the dervish monk talking about her brother going to the grave under the moon and crying bitterly, Aunt Cui also knew that the loss of the sister-in-law named Yuyu had hit her brother so hard!

However, how Shi Qiangsheng left the army and what happened to him after leaving, the dervishes also don't know. Cuigu only knew that Li Shijian had said in his letter that his elder brother Shi Qiangsheng left the army when Chen Zhiyuan surrendered to the Taiping Army.

Cuigu guessed that she was afraid that at that time, her brother would already have a grudge against Li Shijun. But it is impossible to figure out what kind of feud has been formed.

- Shi Qiangsheng doesn't say why. Cui Gu was unwilling, so she asked Shi Qiangsheng. Shi Qiangsheng said: "Sister, I want revenge!

When Cui Gu heard this, her heart was about to break!

In fact, now that he has suffered repeatedly, Shi Qiangsheng no longer has the unjust mentality of the "fallen son" at the beginning.

It's just that Shi Qiangsheng doesn't want to say why he has a grudge with Li Shijun, and he doesn't believe in the Li family, not to mention that Shi Qiangsheng always thinks that Li Shijun was responsible for Yuyu's death?

- Shi Qiangsheng wants revenge, and he wants his sister to help him avenge. Cuigu's heart is broken.

However, Shi Qiangsheng didn't know that if he didn't make it clear, his sister Cuigu was like being kept in the dark, and she was very sad in her heart.

As for Aunt Cui, where did she think that the reason for this was that the Li family refused to recognize her relatives at the beginning. However, the Li family didn't recognize their relatives at the beginning, but it was because they saw that the old nun and ghost people did ghost things. It's just that time has passed, and today, who can trace that origin and that source?

Aunt Cui was helpless, so she teased Huanhuan and put on the child's words: "Huanhuan, my aunt made a bamboo bow and arrows for you to play, you tell your aunt, how did your aunt die, okay?"
