On the ninth day of the first month of winter, there was a heavy snowfall in Luocheng, and the gray city turned into a white expanse. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

In the Zhangxi Courtyard of the Splendid Dart Bureau, the snow accumulated more than a foot deep, and due to the inconvenience of training, Gu Jiaotou simply gave everyone a four-day vacation. Shi Zhu also went home, this child has been in the dart game for more than a month, and he has long been thinking about going home to see if the puppy he raised has grown up.

Peng Yu was the only one left in the empty small stone house, and he held the stone lock for a while. It's a bit boring to sit alone, and I don't seem to have been so idle in the past few months.

Feeling a little cold, I dug out the torn cotton jacket from the box under the bed and put it on. Since entering the dart bureau and giving out new clothes, this torn cotton jacket has been forgotten by him, but he has not been willing to throw it away because he has spent a lot of difficult years with him.

I touched my pocket, and found a hard thing in my left pocket, and when I took it out, it turned out to be the broken book I picked up in the garbage heap outside the city before entering the dart game. In fact, there is also a small library in the dart bureau, and Peng Yu has been there a few times, all of which are literary and educational books such as the Book of Poetry and Chu Ci, the Analects of Mencius, etc.

He is no longer interested in studying, and it is impossible for him to take the entrance examination in his life. It's just that it's not boring at this time, so I'll just flip through it.

I picked up this broken book and put it like this, never opened it. I don't know what age it is, but the hard cover is covered with a layer of gray-brown dirt. I didn't care about it, I turned the page and saw that it was blank. Peng Yu was a little strange, she flipped through it from beginning to end, and there was really not a word.

I don't know what material this paper is made of, but it has a soft milky white color and a good texture to the touch. Peng Yu was secretly happy in his heart, could this be the legendary wordless heavenly book? There is no inside page, there should always be on the cover. I found a knife to carefully scrape off the dirt on the cover, not to mention that it was quite easy to scrape, this cover was like a thin layer of dark green rock. It's a pity that it looks very good, and there is still not a word on it.

Peng Yu didn't believe in evil anymore, and suddenly thought that the legendary divine books had to be burned with fire or put into water before they could be revealed, could it be that this book was also the same? Without saying a word, he hurriedly brought over a basin of water and carefully put one of the pages into it, it was useless...... The fire was raised again, and one of the pages was carefully placed on the fire, but it was still useless, and the book was still empty.

I couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed, thinking that this was probably an ornament discarded by a wealthy family, so I just threw it on the bed and didn't bother to care.

I walked around the small stone house a few times, and hit the thirty-six long fists twice, which was really boring. Remembering that he hadn't gone to Xileju to report the good news to Uncle Li since he entered the dart game, he put on a padded jacket and closed the door and walked outside the dart game.

The snow on the street was very thick, and Peng Yushen walked with shallow feet, and he had been busy practicing martial arts for more than a month, and he had never come out. Not to mention that Luo Cheng is really much more beautiful than the original after the snow, it is shiny everywhere, not like the original gray and old-fashioned appearance.

I walked for more than half an hour to walk to the Joy House, and I didn't expect that the door was really open on such a cold day, and I didn't run in vain. It's a pity that there are no customers in the store, and Uncle Li is sleeping on a dining table, snoring slightly, and someone walks in without realizing it. Although he has been in the dart game for more than a month, Peng Yu still feels that this place is the most cordial.

"Boss, let's have a bowl of beef noodles and put more beef. ”

Lao Li woke up in a daze, and his mouth responded: "Okay, okay, come right away." ”

When he looked up, he saw that it was Peng Yu, and said with a grin: "Brother Yu, I haven't seen you for a few days, but you have found a livelihood?"

"Hehe, Uncle Li, I listened to your persuasion and went to take the apprenticeship of the Splendid Dart Bureau, but I was really hired by accident. I've been busy training these days, and it just happened that I had a heavy snow holiday today, so I came to see Uncle Li. Peng Yu said happily.

When Lao Li heard that Peng Yu was already an apprentice of the dart game, he seemed a little at a loss. The people of these three major forces have a very high status in the city, and ordinary traders can't climb high at all, so Lao Li is also slightly out of shape. After a while, he rubbed his hands and said, "It's good, it's great, I know that Brother Yu is a talented person, I'm really right." ”

"His aunt, hurry up and bring Brother Yu a bowl of beef noodles. ”

Peng Yu also saw that Uncle Li was a little inferior, and hurriedly said: "Uncle Li, you don't need to see outside, no matter if I am an apprentice of the dart game, or even if I can become a dart master in the future, I will always be just the ragged Yu brother who came to your store to beg for food." ”

Lao Li listened to the words, and only then did he relax a little. After eating noodles, the two chatted for more than an hour, and Peng Yu was just about to get up and walk out, but a few big men with five big and three thick men walked in at the door.

"Old man, is the rent ready?"

Lao Li instantly cringed and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, can you give Lao Li another two days of grace." ”

The big man in the lead opened his eyes angrily, and said in a loud voice: "Dead old man, you said that you would have a two-day grace period when you came the day before yesterday, and you will have another two days of grace when you come today, but when I come to Qinglong Hall, I can't be bullied?"

Lao Li explained in a low voice: "It's not that I want to deceive you, it's really cold these days, there are few people entering the city, and there is no business at all. ”

Dahan simply sat down and said: "Don't embarrass you, you can't pay the rent today, your shop is about to vacate the land, and there are many people who can rent it." ”

Lao Li had no choice but to stop talking, although this small shop had a meager profit, it could at least ensure that their family of three was fed. If you don't have this livelihood, how can you survive when you go to the countryside and have no land?

Peng Yu saw Uncle Li's embarrassed appearance, walked over and hugged his fist to the big man and said: "Peng Yu of the Splendid Dart Bureau is polite, the shopkeeper is the younger brother and cousin, can you give me a face?"

The big man turned his head and saw that it was a child in tattered clothes, and he was expected to be just a small person in the dart game, so he said with a stalk around his neck: "This little brother is optimistic, killing people to pay off debts and paying off debts, this is the truth of ancient and modern times." My Qinglong Hall has seven or eight hundred people, all of them eat at this rent, if every family gives a grace period of a few months, seven or eight hundred people must not all starve to death?"

Peng Yu asked helplessly, "How much is this monthly rent?"

"Five taels of silver. ”

Peng Yu touched his pocket, handed over the two taels of money sent by the dart board last month, and said, "The rest of the troubles will give you some more time." ”

The big man took the silver in his hand and tossed it, and said a little impatiently: "It's really troublesome, then I'll come back in half a month." ”

After a group of rent collectors left, Lao Li was grateful to Peng Yu. Peng Yu is also a little silent, now the world is difficult, he has long understood it. Each has its own life, and I only see that I can help for a while, and I can't help for a lifetime. persuaded Lao Li that if this shop couldn't make money, he would better think of something else to make a living as soon as possible.

The two talked for a long time, and after having dinner with Lao Li's victory, they walked towards the dart game leisurely.

By the time we got back to the game, it was already dark. Peng Yu pushed open the door of the small stone house, but saw that the book on the bed was faintly glowing with a hint of pale green fluorescence under the moonlight leaking in from the window, and the entire small stone house was reflected in both reality and illusion, with a trace of strange aroma, just like in a fairy tale.

Walking up quickly, I saw that five big characters appeared on the clear and delicate pale green cover.

Supreme Humanity.
