"Childe?" Chen Aniu walked out and bowed respectfully.

Yue Ziran had a bad premonition in his heart, and asked Bai Rang directly: "The old beggar is here?"

"Yes. As soon as Bai Rang answered, he saw Yue Ziran jump over everyone's heads and enter the main hall.

There were many beggars in the main hall, and a bonfire was lit around an old beggar. The old beggar was full of silver, and the folds of his face were deeply imprinted by the years, like annual rings, telling of his old age. At this time, the stench on his body was even worse, his breath was even more breathless, and he was in danger of breaking off at any time.

It seemed that in the dark, as soon as Yue Ziran entered the main hall, the old beggar with closed eyes opened his eyes with dilated pupils and set his eyes on Yue Ziran's body.

"Zhong Antong. Yue Ziran said softly.

"Do you know me?" the old beggar asked vaguely, but his eyes were fixed on Yue Ziran's dog-beating stick.

For more than 20 years, the voice and smile of the former childish man have long changed, so he did not recognize Yue Ziran.

"I'm Hengshan, Yue Ziran. Yue Ziran said slowly, his eyes becoming slightly red and warm.

The old beggar who was about to die had already put many things aside, but he couldn't let go of Yue Ziran's knot, and at this time, he listened to what he said, but he didn't show that he was too excited, but his face became ruddy, and he even had the strength to support his body and sit half-sitting.

"You're here. The old beggar looked at Yue Ziran kindly, just like an old man who had been searching for a long time in the crowd but couldn't find it, and when he suddenly returned, he appeared in the light, without a trace of surprise, it seemed that it should have been like this, just a light "You are here" was enough.

Although in the daytime, he also sighed to Bai Rang that he might never see the child who made him worry a lot in this life.

Yue Ziran nodded, wanting to shed tears, but it made his heart even more uncomfortable. After coming into this world, within a few days he passed the tragedy of the destruction of his family, and it was under the protection of the old beggar that he was able to grow up and live the infant period of being an adult but unable to resist anything.

So before they met, his figure was tall in Yue Ziran's mind, even if Yue Ziran's martial arts attainments were already better than the old beggar, but only that figure would give him a sense of security.

It's just that I didn't expect that when we met again, he would be as old as a man.

"I'm sorry I'm late. Yue Ziran squatted down and held the old beggar's withered left hand.

"It's good to come, it's never too late. The old beggar smiled, and paid no attention to the impending death, but said, "Have you taken your revenge?"

Yue Ziran shook his head, but said, "It's almost there." ”

The old beggar nodded, saw the dog-beating stick in his hand, reached out and stroked it, and said softly, "Everything has a cause and effect. When I was dying of starvation, I received a handout from your mother because of your full moon. In a few days, I saved the last bloodline of the Yue family, so it should be returned, you are not an extraordinary person, don't be blinded by hatred. ”

Yue Ziran nodded and said in a choked voice, "I know." ”

The old beggar pointed to the beggars inside and outside the hall again, and said: "I have been a beggar all my life, although I have been ridiculed a lot, but there are also many brothers. ”

"Not bad. Yue Ziran nodded.

"Good. The old beggar smiled and asked, "Are you the apprentice of the Seventh Prince?"

"Yes. ”

"Good, good, good. The old beggar said three times in succession, "This is what I praise you on behalf of your parents." He pointed to the dog-beating stick in Yue Ziran's hand and said, "Since you want to be the leader of the beggar gang in the future, you must be like the leader of the Hong gang, and you must not destroy the foundation of the beggar gang in your hands." ”

"Understood. ”

"That's good. The old beggar smiled, pointed to Huang Rong, who came in and squatted next to Yue Ziran, and asked, "Who is this girl?"

Yue Ziran pulled Huang Rong over and reassured the old man and said, "The wife who has not passed the door." ”

"Good. The old beggar was quite pleased, coughed a few times and said, "Seeing that you are all right, I am at ease when I go." After speaking, he put Yue Ziran and Huang Rong's hands together, patted them, looked at the two of them, showed a satisfied smile on their faces, and finally closed their eyes peacefully.

The whole hall was silent, and a group of beggars, young and old, stood, looking at the old beggar's remains, without making a sound, so as to let him go peacefully.

It wasn't until a quarter of an hour later that an old beggar standing in the front gently struck the ground with a bamboo stick in his hand, playing a melody similar to the fall of a lotus flower, his lips opened, and an ethereal, penetrating, and desolate song lingered in everyone's ears until it rose to the sky.

"He is leaving, and he is a seedling. The line is vigorous, and the center is shaky. Those who know me say that I am worried. Those who do not know me say what I want. The sky is long, who is this? He is separated, and he is the spike of grass. The line is vigorous, and the center is drunk. Those who know me say that I am worried. He who does not know me will say what I want......"

Then the other beggars tapped the ground with their canes and began to sing.

The beggars helped their disciples to live in poverty all their lives, and believed that the trip to the world was a kind of practice, and death was a kind of liberation.

Therefore, the beggar disciples must be cremated immediately after death, so that the deceased can return to their hometown as soon as possible without taking away any fetters.

The firewood pile had already been prepared in the yard, Yue Ziran picked up the old beggar's light body, gently put it up, took the turbid wine handed over by the beggar disciples, took a sip, and then poured it lightly around the firewood, so that the old beggar's body was full of the fragrance of wine.

After doing this qiē, Yue Ziran raised the torch and lit it with his own hands. The firewood pile has already been poured with grease, and it will be dyed when it encounters fire, and the courtyard of the broken temple, the window railing, the old tiles, and the artemisia grass will be illuminated.

"The people of this state are not willing to be valleys. Words and words, return to our country. The people of this country shall not be clear. After saying goodbye, I will return to my brothers. Let the people of this country get along with each other. After saying that, the beggar who led the singing changed the tune of ...... my father, and all the beggars beat in unison, simple and desolate, and the world was sad.

The scenes of living with the old beggar flashed in my mind one by one, I once stole the chickens of the rich and noble, once chased the vicious dog of their three streets with stones, I was bullied by Xiao Er, and I once caught a snake and boiled it in a broken crockpot for three days, and I felt that it was the happiest thing in the world.

The white horse in life has passed through a gap, and it is only when it suddenly returns, but the most difficult time is also the happiest time.

"Give it to me when you put the ashes away. Yue Ziran's eyes looked ahead, and his expression was sad, "I want to sprinkle him to Taihu Lake, which is his hometown." You also have to give me the clothes and leave a tomb in Hengshan, just like my parents. ”

"In life, a man must always leave something to remember, to know that he has come. ”

"Understand that forgetting is the greatest betrayal. ”

After that, Yue Ziran led the group out of the broken temple, and the sky was white as far as the eye could see, and the sky was about to dawn......

(Thanks to the brocade Wei Tian and the children's shoes for the reward, I am very flattered.) In addition, I'm sorry for the delay today, there is only one chapter, the old rules, and the arrears will be made up on the weekend. In addition, familiar characters began to come. ）
