Chapter 1: Ordinary
The first volume was young and thin-shirted at the time
The poem says: It is easiest to wake up from good dreams, just because you are young and frivolous.
Chapter 1 Ordinary
There are many mountains in the middle of the river since ancient times.
Among the mountains, Emei and Qingcheng are the most famous. There is also Shu Mountain in Sichuan, which is the three famous mountains in Shuzhong, and its disciples are all over the world.
Dongling Mountain is just a very inconspicuous one among the mountains. Although Dongling Mountain is not very high, the mountain is dangerous, and there are often tigers and leopards in the mountains and forests. At the foot of Dongling Mountain, a small village of hundreds of people is built by the mountain, living by the water, a blessed land on earth!
Most of the villagers in the small village make a living from fishing and hunting, so they naturally can't recognize a few big characters, so they name the village Dongling Village along with the name of the mountain. Dongling Village is surrounded by mountains, and there is only one sheep intestine path, which leads to the outside of the village. The story of this book begins in this small village.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The wind is blowing, the catkins are fluttering, and it is the middle of winter.
Near the entrance of the village, there is a very dilapidated thatched house. The new and plaster, soft and glued to the wall. From a distance, it looks like a patch on a coat. The cold wind carried snowflakes, and from time to time the doors and windows "crackled".
In the dark and more crowded hut, a light is like a bean.
Ping Ah Si sat in front of the charcoal stove where he decocted the medicine, silently counting the few copper plates in his hand, and secretly thinking about how to buy medicinal materials for his father. Opposite the charcoal stove, there was an equally dilapidated thin wooden bed, on which lay his father, who had been sick for a long time.
Ah Si is his nickname, his big name, called Pingfan.
Ordinary Ping, ordinary Fan.
And he is really a man as his name suggests, born thin and small, with a dark complexion, just like an ordinary peasant boy, belonging to the master who cannot be found when thrown into the pile.
Today coincides with Laba, and when it comes to tomorrow, it is time for my father to change the medicine. Ping Fan pinched the copper coin, shook it in his hand, looked at the overwhelming wind and snow outside the window, and sighed softly.
"Tuk-tuk, tuk-tuk!"
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door outside the house.
"Ah Si, Ah Si!" the man called in a low voice, "Open the door!"
"Is it an iron pillar?" Ordinary heard the cry and hurriedly got up to open the door. When the gate opened, I saw a white figure, and the wind and snow were about to break in together. Ping Fan closed the wooden door, turned around and asked, "Tiezhu, is there something wrong?"
"Of course there's something! It's a great thing!" Tie Zhu patted the snow on his body, revealing a frozen red face: "Ah Si, your father's medicine should almost be finished, right?"
Hearing this, Ping Fan nodded, and said listlessly: "Yes, I'm worried about this." If you don't come, I'm afraid I'm going to go out. ”
"It's freezing, what are you doing when you go out?" Tie Zhuqi said: "Could it be that you are going to hunt?
"Of course I know that. Ping Fan smiled bitterly, spread out his palms, and said: "Daddy is going to change the medicine tomorrow, the doctor said early in the morning, Daddy's disease, the medicine can't be stopped." If I can't come up with the money, what should my father do? As he spoke, he pointed to the hunting fork leaning against the door, and said, "Tiezhu, why don't you go with me to look for it today?" Even if you can't fight the beast, the two of us can take care of it." ”
"What if you can't find the beast?" Tiezhu frowned, and said, "If you can't find the beast, you can only run away empty, but that's it." But if it's late today, and the mountain road is slippery, if something happens to you on the mountain, who will take care of your father?"
"Don't be busy, don't be busy. Seeing this, Tie Zhu smiled slightly, lowered his voice and said, "I have a way here to solve the urgent need." ”
"What's the method?" Ordinary Fan hurriedly asked when he heard the score.
"This is the case," Tie Zhu rubbed his frozen red hands and said, "Didn't I go to the market with my second uncle before?" At noon, we were in the teahouse in the town, and we overheard someone talk about it, saying that there was a new gang in the town called the 'Shangqing faction', and it was recruiting people everywhere. ”
"Jianghu gang recruitment?" Pingfan frowned and said strangely: "What does this have to do with us?"
"Who said it has nothing to do with it?" Tie Zhu stretched out his hand, knocked on the ordinary one, and said with a smile: "There are many benefits." “
"What's the benefit?" asked Pingfan, touching his head.
"According to my second uncle's inquiry, this Shangqing faction recruited people this time, but it made a heavy investment. Tie Zhu snapped his fingers and counted: "The first charcoal worker is responsible for burning charcoal for the charcoal division, three taels of silver a month; the second kitchen worker is responsible for food, two taels of silver a month; the third miscellaneous laborer only does some cleaning and sprinkling work, and there are also one tael or two silver per month after a month." Even if we only do miscellaneous labor, in five years, we will have a profit of seventy-two taels of silver, right?
"It's a good solution, but my father ......" Pingfan shook his head and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to survive for so long." ”
"Ahem, what's so embarrassing about this?" Tie Zhu got up, slapped his chest, and said loudly: "Have you forgotten that I still have a third brother? If you are short of money, I will give you the money for the first few months, and you can make it back to me later, or keep it yourself, can you do it? If you are still not at ease, come back every time you have a holiday, come back and take a look, that's it. If you come back and see that your father has lost weight, I will cut the meat and compensate him, will it be successful?" As he spoke, he reached out into his arms, took out seven or eight ingots of silver weighing one or two, put them on the table, and asked, "Are these enough?" “
"Okay, early tomorrow morning, I'll bring my second uncle to pick you up. As he spoke, Tie Zhu took his felt hat and went out on his own. Ordinary get up and send each other, no question.

ps: Note 1: I remember when I first read my novel, someone asked me if the catkins didn't only exist in spring? Why did your text appear in the winter? I was depressed at that time, okay, here is an explanation: the catkins are fluttering, from the Wei and Jin dynasties of the three-sentence couplet: the snow is like it, the difference in the air can be imitated, if the catkins are not due to the wind. The last sentence was the poem of Xie Daoyun, the talented daughter of the Xie family at that time, which made Prime Minister Wang Dao have to be impressed. The catkins are allusions, hence the origin.
