Bai Qixing hid behind the tree and looked outside, only to see Tong Dashan looking behind him for a moment, sighed, turned around and continued to go up the mountain, Bai Qixing didn't dare to follow closely, and waited until the three of them walked away, as if they couldn't see it, then turned out of the back of the tree, and continued to perform the light skill stealth technique and follow up the mountain.

He followed from afar, this time Tong Dashan didn't seem to notice again, he followed until he stopped in front of a walled gate, Tong Dashan entered the cottage, he looked up, only to see that the walled gate was high, full of three feet and three feet high, and they were all built of logs, and there were more than ten patrol minions on it, and there were cliffs on both sides.

He secretly planned, want to go into the cottage at night to explore the end, but think about this is too risky, although he can use light skills to jump up three zhang high, you can have something to borrow under your feet, such as the city wall of three feet and three feet, although the city wall is a steep face, it can be built up by layers of bricks and stones, and you can jump up as long as you can jump up by protruding a star of masonry, but this walled gate is built of wood, straight up and down, there is no place to borrow strength, even if you perform light skills and a crane soars to the sky, you can only barely jump up three zhang, but there are still people guarding the walled door, I want people to go to the gate without knowing the ghosts, I am afraid that things are better than climbing to the sky。

Therefore, Bai Qixing dispelled this idea, he was worried about how to sneak into the cottage, and suddenly saw someone walking out of the village, this person was dressed in two sections, straw sandals under his feet, and a whip pinned to his waist, and at a glance, he knew that it was either a sheep official or a cowherd, and he had an idea with a roll of his eyes, so he secretly followed this person down the mountain, and when he was far away from the cottage, he grabbed a handful of soil and wiped it on his body, broke his hair bun, and then caught up with this person, stretched out his hand and patted it on his shoulder, and shouted: "Hey, uncle." ”

The man was humming a little song, but he was frightened by such a beat, and shouted: "Oh, mom, what the hell are you, you suddenly appeared and scared me to death." ”

Bai Qixing said to him stupidly: "Haha, I'm not a ghost. ”

The man looked at him so stupidly, and after looking at it, he saw that he was dressed well, but his body was very dirty, and his hair was still scattered, and at a glance he knew that he was the son of a big family, but he must be a little crazy and stupid, and he had a good heart, so he asked: "Who are you, why did you come here alone?!"

Bai Qixing said happily: "Haha, who am I, I am me, I came with my father, they asked me to catch butterflies, and I can't find my father and mother after catching butterflies." ”

After hearing this, the man thought that he must have been lost, or that his father and mother thought he was stupid and deliberately abandoned him here, so he asked, "What is your name and where do you live?!"

Bai Qixing said: "My name is Guo, Guo Xiaobao, where does my family live?!" He deliberately looked at the sky and thought for a while, smiled, sucked his finger and said: "I don't remember, we came in a sedan chair, ah, that's right." Suddenly, he exclaimed, "My father gave me this belt back to carry on me." As he spoke, he untied the money bag from his waist, and deliberately opened it to the man's eyes, and said, "Then, you see." ”

When the man took a look, he saw that the money bag was full of broken silver with white flowers, at least a hundred taels, and he couldn't help but shake his head and sighed: "Hey, child, your family is too, brought you here, and let you bring so much money, don't you know what kind of place this is?! ”

Bai Qixing clapped his hands and said happily when he heard this: "Hey, it's so good, I'm going to find my father." ”

The man shook his head again and said, "Let's go, go down the mountain with me." ”

Bai Qixing went down the mountain with this person, this person first took it back to his home, and when he arrived at his house, Bai Qixing knew that this person's surname was Yao, Ming'an, was a sheep official, forty-eight years old this year, had a wife, named Liu Lin, the old couple had no children under their knees, they depended on each other for their lives, in order to support their families, they began to herd sheep for Xiwangzhai 27 years ago, and today he came back from the cottage after driving the sheep, only to meet Guo Xiaobao on the road, that is, Bai Qixing.

Yao An told Liu Lin about meeting Guo Xiaobao on the road, Liu Lin felt that he was quite pitiful, and hurriedly fetched him water to clean his face and wash his hands, and then asked him if he was hungry, and specially ordered a bowl of egg noodles for him, Bai Qixing was actually not hungry, but in order to pretend to be like, he even ate the noodles and soup in one go, and licked the bowl all over, only shouting delicious.

The couple will see that he is very white after wiping his face, and eating noodles so fragrant, they love it very much, they see that it is too late, so they say to Bai Qixing: "You will stay at my house tonight, and Ming'er will take you to find your father." ”

Bai Qixing listened to it and shouted good, so he slept in Yao An's house that night, and the next day Yao An went to Xiwangzhai to take leave, saying that the old woman at home was sick and wanted someone to take care of him, so he didn't come these days, and Xiwangzhai was not short of sheep, but Yao An has been herding sheep in the village for more than 20 years, and he has been letting him be a sheep official in the village, but there are also people in the village, and there are also sheep herders, so he is okay if he doesn't come for a few days.

Yao An took leave, and when he went home, he took Bai Qixing to find his father, but what Bai Qixing said was all lies, his biological father and mother were all in Mount Emei, and there was no other place, so he also said to Yao An nonsense, first saying that he lived in the neighboring village Kanzi Village, his father's name was Guo Banshan, and his mother's name was Ye Xuan.

Yao An took Bai Qixing to Kanzi Village to inquire, and asked if there was anyone named Guo Banshan, no one in the village knew, Yao An asked Bai Qixing again, whether he lived in this village, Bai Qixing nodded and shook his head, and he couldn't say clearly, it was really no problem, Yao An took Bai Qixing to several neighboring villages, and even the farther towns had been to it, but he couldn't find out about Guo Banshan.

This toss is more than half a month, Yao An saw that he really couldn't find Bai Qixing's father, so he took it home, he came home and told Liu Lin about it, Liu Lin persuaded: "Forget it, if you can't find it, you can't find it, you see this child is stupid, it's not noisy, it's good." When she thought of this, she suddenly flashed a thought, smiled happily, and said to Yao An: "I said old man, this child doesn't remember where his home is, and his father and mother don't come to find him, I think eighty percent don't want him anymore, and we have lived for most of our lives, and we haven't had a man and a woman until now, so it's better for us to accept him as a son." ”

"That's right. The old couple hit it off, so they took Bai Qixing as their son, and Bai Qixing usually pretended to be stupid, but he rushed forward if the Yao family wanted to have a job, and said stupidly: "Dad, let me come." The old couple was happy to see him, and said, "You see, he is stupid, but he is quite capable of working." ”

"Yes, this is the blessing we cultivated in our previous life, and we have such a good son. ”

Bai Qixing stayed in Yao's house for two months, Yao An loved him very much, so he often took him with him, and later Shangxi Wangzhai also took him, and Xiwangzhai had closed the mountain and closed the village a few years ago, and outsiders were not allowed to enter, and the people in the village could not easily go out of the village, but Yao An and a few other people were an exception, although their home was not in Xiwangzhai, they could do many years of work for Xiwangzhai, and they were ordinary people who herded sheep, cooked rice, and sent firewood, so Xiwangzhai also gave them a waist card, and they could enter and exit the cottage at will.

Yao An took the stupid Bai Qi to the gate of the village, and the minions guarding the door all recognized him, and when they saw him coming, they hurriedly stepped forward and said politely: "Hey, Uncle Yao, you are here." Yao An also spoke politely to him, but when the minions saw Bai Qixing behind him, he hurriedly stopped him and said: "Hey, Uncle Yao, who is this?!, why do you go here casually, don't you know that there are rules in the village, you can't bring outsiders into the village, you can't bring someone with you." ”

Bai Qixing saw that he was actually stopped, his heart sank to Qiangu, and he said secretly: Could it be that I have tossed in vain these months.
