Severe winter wax moon, heavy snow goose feathers.

In less than half an hour, the streets were dyed white, shops of all kinds were closed early, and the whole world was so quiet that only the sound of wind and snow could be heard.

The charcoal basin in the room burns high-quality charcoal, isolating the cold outside, as if it were another world, warm.

A gorgeously dressed middle-aged man sat on a chair with Erlang's legs crossed, peeling delicious citrus fruits in his hands, and the maidservant beside him gently pounded his shoulder.

The middle-aged man's surname is Cang Mingyun, he was born in selling smuggled salt, and then started a silk business, from a child of a serf family to now a 'Cangyuan Wai' in Lingshui County, even the county guard was quite polite when he saw him, in his own words, that is, he finally lived a good life.

There is a faint sound of the piano in the room, and the cangyuan does not like to listen to sad tunes, so the sound of the piano reveals a trace of cheerfulness and liveliness, but people with a heart can still hear a little melancholy, and the intermittent sound surrounds the warm room, as if telling a mediocre but heartwarming story......

Cang Yun patted her thigh with her hand, and gently shook her body with the tune, the person who played the qin was a blind old woman, and she was also well-known in Lingshui County, and she often appeared in major teahouses and inns, but no one had ever seen her speak, and she seemed to be mute except for being blind, and no matter how noisy it was, she only quietly pulled her old erhu.

At a certain moment, Cang Yun suddenly stood up from the chair like a ghost, and the maid next to him who beat him on the shoulder was startled, and heard Cang Yun frown and say, "What's going on outside?"

"Master, there's no movement outside except the wind!" the maid hurriedly replied.

Hearing the maid say this, Cang Yun also felt that he was a little inexplicable, so he sat back again, but he could no longer calm down and listen to the music, and after a while, he put down the half-peeled citrus in his hand, put on a fox fur, and went outside.

Came to the gate of Cangfu, I saw a pretty woman holding a baby and crying under the door, Cangyun recognized this woman, her husband Cang Bing, addicted to gambling like life, is a rotten firewood, because it is his own fellow villager, so he has worked in Cangfu for a period of time as a short-term worker, stole several times in the house after being arrested, he has to sell his son as a slave to pay off his debts, Cangyun is not a good person, and even can get to this day by his ruthless means, so even if it is a fellow villager, he was killed on the spot, killing a hundred examples.

How could the woman survive this harsh winter, when her husband had died, and she had to sell her children into slavery, and there was no food left in the house?

Seeing this scene, Cang Yun snorted coldly, glanced at the baby who was just a few months old, and thought it was unlucky, so he ordered his subordinates to throw the mother and son to the foot of the mountain outside the county.

At this moment, a Taoist priest wearing only a thin green shirt passed in front of the mansion, this Taoist priest just looked a little fairy, and when he heard the baby's cry, he came over.

Dressed like this in such a cold weather, his face is ruddy, no matter how he looks at it, he is not an ordinary person, although Cang Yun does not believe in those gods and strange things, but at this time, he can't help but be a little more polite.

"How can there be a demonic spirit?"

The middle-aged Taoist chief frowned and took the baby from the hands of the people in Cangfu, and after examining it, a black strange birthmark was found on the back of the baby's hand.

"It's ...... Demon fetus?"

The middle-aged Taoist elder frowned even deeper, took out a silver needle and pricked it on the baby's hand, and soon a drop of blood came out.

"The blood of the human race is obviously a human race, why is it a demon fetus?" said the middle-aged Taoist chief secretly in his heart.

Cang Yun leaned over at this time and said politely, "This Dao Chief, what is so strange about this baby?"

The middle-aged Taoist chief looked at Cangyun, he was going to go out to travel, although he was curious about the secrets of this baby, but he couldn't take it, and after a turn of thought, he said to that Cangyun: "It's a good blessing outside, this baby is a lucky star, and the outsider should adopt it as an adopted son, and he can bless your mansion with peace and disaster." ”

Cang Yun's eyes lit up when he heard this, there has been a lot of trouble in his Cangfu recently, if this Taoist priest of the fairy wind and Dao bone is not a god stick, then it doesn't hurt for him to stay with this baby.

"I have a talisman to wear on my baby, so that he can grow up healthily. The middle-aged Taoist priest said and took out a small bag and handed it to Cangyun.

Cang Yun took the bag and said to the people behind him: "Come on, go get ten taels of silver and give it to the Taoist!"

The middle-aged Taoist waved his hand and said, "Don't bother, this baby should be treated well, and when the poor Dao comes back, I will come to visit." ”

After that, he sent the baby to Cang Yun's hands, and after Cang Yun took it, he had to say something more, but when he looked up, the middle-aged Taoist who was still in front of him just now had disappeared.

His eyes swept across the street ahead, and there was not a single figure except for the white snow.

"Did I meet a fairy, or did I meet a monster?" Cang Yun muttered in a low voice.

From the baby's swaddling clothes, Cang Yun took out a piece of paper, on which was written the baby's birth date and his name......

Cangze.

...

The old woman carried the erhu on her back, and left Cangfu with a branch in her hand, she was blind, but it was not difficult to move in this snowy day, occasionally seeing her stumble two steps, but she would never fall, walking on the soft snow, far away, and thinking that a ghost was floating forward.

Before the old woman passed through a dark alley, suddenly the sound of the wind and snow was mixed with a few baby cries, so she stopped and listened, and the cry came from the dark alley, vague.

She then turned into the alley, knocked on the narrow alley with a twig, and soon found something soft next to a pile of debris.

The soft thing was naturally a baby in swaddling clothes, the old woman was blind and could not see, although the pink carved baby girl cried loudly, but there were no tears, as if she was just deliberately attracting people to come, and after the old woman picked her up, she stopped crying.

Her smart eyes seemed to possess wisdom, and she grabbed the old woman's index finger with her small hand.

"Poor little guy, it must be frozen, it's really distressing, who is so cruel to leave you here in such a cold weather?" The old woman took the baby in her arms and walked out of the dark alley, "Since no one wants you, then follow the old woman and me to live in the future, it may be harder, but you can still live, right?"

This old woman, who had never spoken in front of people in Lingshui County, held the baby like this, muttered all the way, and finally disappeared into the white snow......
