Chapter 226

After digging for news from Xue Chong—in fact, he didn’t find out much. Xue Chong has always adhered to the principle of saying that more is wrong than good, and in fact the only useful thing is the saying that the sky is not old. This sentence is in the deep stream behind the crock temple in Baiyun Mountain.

Xue Ling and Sheng Junqian didn't stay too long in Songxian County. After all, they came to Songxian County to inquire further about Tianbulao. Now that they have inquired, the two of them didn't come to visit the mountains and rivers, so they left immediately .

Of course—with Jiang Liuer.

Jiang Liu'er, who took five taels of silver, really had the courage and motivation to go home, and she was even more grateful to Xue Ling and Sheng Junqian.

He himself grew up in Baiyun Mountain, and he knows the appearance of the mountain very well, and he is also a very good guide.

"Have you heard of the Crock Pot Temple in Baiyun Mountain?" Xue Ling couldn't help asking Jiang Liuer on the way to Baiyun Mountain.

"Of course I've heard of it." Jiang Liu'er said without hesitation: "Didn't I mention it? When I was young, I often listened to those old monks chanting scriptures and giving Zen lectures in Crockpot Temple."

"So have you seen any strange things in the Crockpot Temple?" Sheng Junqian couldn't help asking from the side.

Because there is no way to ride horses on the mountain road, it is said that the bay red horse that the two people came to ride is still being taken care of by the post station. The three of them are walking in the mountains and forests on foot at this time. Before Hei went to his house there was no problem.

Although his house is not big, at least there is a room for rest, which is much better than sleeping in the wild.

"Strange thing?" Jiang Liu'er thought about it carefully, then shook her head.

"For example, have you ever seen a Taoist priest in the Crock Temple?" Xue Ling asked.

"Taoist?" Jiang Liu'er asked curiously, "Wok Temple is a Buddhist temple, how could there be a Taoist inside?"

Xue Ling nodded: "It's fine if you don't have one."

The three of them trekked across mountains and rivers, but fortunately, although Jiang Liu'er had been away from home for half a year, he was still familiar with those mountain trails. He walked through a few small streams, and then through a large pine forest. From a distance, he could see the river at the foot of the mountain. There are several thatched cottages standing there.

"That's my home." Jiang Liu'er said, pointing at the huts from afar.

Near nostalgia is more timid.

Although Jiang Liu'er was in a good mood along the way, but when he saw these thatched huts, Jiang Liu'er couldn't help becoming sad.

Xue Ling took two steps forward, but Jiang Liu'er timidly grabbed the corner of her clothes: "Sister Lin."

"Huh?" Xue Ling looked at Jiang Liu'er.

"I don't dare to go there," Jiang Liu'er said.

Xue Ling sighed: "Should we take a look for you first?"

Jiang Liu'er nodded unconsciously: "Okay..."

He was just halfway through his good words when he was slapped on the back of the head by Sheng Junqian: "What's the matter, there's no reason why you dare not go home when you get home. One man does things and the other is responsible. If you lose the medicinal materials and dare not go home, forget it." , It’s nothing to dare to go back after getting the medicine money.”

What Sheng Junqian said made Jiang Liu'er a little dazed.

He hesitated for a moment, and finally spat hard on the ground, slapped his own face twice, and then strode forward.

Xue Ling and Sheng Junqian quietly followed Jiang Liuer.

On the way to those thatched huts, we have to pass a small stream. There is a single-plank bridge on the stream. After crossing the single-plank bridge, the thatched hut is in front of us. There are several chicken coops beside the hut, but when I look at it now, there are only a few chicken feathers left in it. , the chicken is gone.

"This is the hen that lays eggs in my family. I usually don't want to kill it." Jiang Liu'er stood in front of the chicken coop, sighed and said, then bit her lips, walked to the wooden door of the hut, and said softly : "I'm back, father, mother."

Then push the door in.

Xue Ling and Sheng Junqian were waiting outside the door, only to hear the room was quiet at first, then there was a roar, followed by a few muffled blows, and then Jiang Liuer ran back rolling and crawling, with a bruise on his face. Two red marks.

"Father!" He knelt in front of the hut, tears streaming down his face.

"I don't have a son like you!" A man roared from the hut.

Immediately, a staggering figure came out of the hut. His whole body was unkempt, his hair and beard looked like he hadn't taken care of it for several months, he was leaning on crutches, one leg was swollen to twice the normal thickness, it was purple-blue, and his cheeks were dark. Deep sunken, only a pair of pupils still showing a little anger.

After he walked out of the door, he hit Jiang Liu'er in front of him with a cane. He didn't eat much, and after hitting more than a dozen crutches, he couldn't stand up out of breath. He threw the crutches away, and knelt on the ground, crying silently.

Xue Ling and Sheng Junqian looked at the old man, speechless.

And Jiang Liu'er stepped forward to help, but was pushed away by the old man.

"If you die outside." The old man knelt on the ground and choked slightly and said: "If you die outside..."

"Father, I'm back. I'm back with medicine money." Jiang Liu'er knelt on the ground and took two steps, and took out from his bosom the broken silver that Xue Chong had given him earlier. The old man looked: "We have money to buy rice noodles , bought medicine."

The old man tried his best to push Jiang Liuer away again, and the broken silver fell to the ground. He reached out to pick up the silver, and then smashed it hard into the distance, only to hear the sound of ding-dong, some of the silver fell into the grass, and some fell on the small grass. creek.

"If you die outside, what use is it for me to ask for this money!" The old man knelt on the ground and said mournfully.

Jiang Liu'er stepped forward and hugged the old man tightly, this time the old man finally did not push Jiang Liu'er away, but also hugged Jiang Liu'er tightly and cried bitterly.

The two hugged each other for a long time before the old man let go of Jiang Liu'er and looked at his son who had not seen him for more than half a year and had become dark and thin: "What happened when you went to Song County this time?"

"The medicine given to me by the pharmacy is not worth the price, I'm not reconciled." Jiang Liu'er bit her lip and said, "At this time, someone promised me a good price, so I gave him the medicine ingredients, but he secretly changed all the medicine ingredients. In the end, I cheated my son, and I went to settle accounts with him, and he beat me up again."

Jiang Liu'er lowered her head: "I lost the medicinal materials and didn't get the money for the medicine. I felt ashamed to go home to see you, so I simply stayed in Song County."

"I just want to stay here first, to see if there is any chance for revenge, or work to make money, and then go home."

The old man listened quietly, and then felt something was wrong: "Then why are you back now, and where did you get the money from?"

Jiang Liu'er raised his head, and pointed to Xue Ling, Sheng Junqian, who were not far away.

"Thanks to the help of these two heroes."

PS:

Today's update is very late.

The main reason is because I attended a funeral today.

It has nothing to do with the recent epidemic. It was my cousin who died of a sudden illness in another place. It seems to be a cerebral infarction.

He is only 33 years old this year, and his child is four years old.

So when I wrote this chapter, I actually felt very deeply. At the funeral, my two uncles and aunts cried very painfully. After all, no one would have imagined that such a thing would really happen to me.

I hope that readers who read this book, please take good care of your body. If any accident occurs because of your body, it will hurt your closest relatives.
