my weird life

Chapter 248 The Master's Gate (22)

In this period,

the people are poor,

There are many famine years.

However, then again, in what period did the people really live a sweet life?
It's mostly just having fun.

Su Wu could probably understand why this master didn't want to ask the local villagers even if they wanted to borrow a set of bedding, because borrowing this set of bedding would probably cause a family to suffer from the cold in the cold night.

Replace the master with him,
He couldn't even open his mouth.

Sitting in the corner, Su Wu was engrossed in his thoughts for a moment.

With his current physique, even if he does not sleep for three days and three nights, he will not feel the slightest fatigue.

——Before obtaining the seal of the 'Dragon Elephant Bodhi',
Although his physique is stronger than ordinary people,
But it is still within the scope of normal creatures.

Strong is strong, and you need to eat, drink and sleep after all.

And after obtaining the seal of the Dragon Elephant Bodhi Mantra, the seal of the mantra was incorporated into his own origin, gradually allowing Su Wu's physique to develop to a level beyond that of ordinary creatures.
Dwelling in the mandala of the wheel of time,

You can also do bigu for three to five days by yourself!

Su Wu came back to his senses,

Looking up,

Seeing the two pairs of shining eyes in the mattress, still looking at me timidly,

The mute girl still had half of her body uncovered by the quilt, curled up tightly, shivering slightly from the cold.

"Sleep, sleep.

When Master comes to see me later, I just tell him that's all. "Su Wu stepped over, let the little boy move to the middle of the mattress, covered the dumb girl with the quilt, and tucked in the corners of the quilt,
Looking at the two timid faces, he smiled and asked, "Do you have your own names?"

"My name is Dog Leftover!"

As the little boy said, he touched the dumb girl next to him: "Her name is dumb!"

"..."

"After two or three days,

Master will also give you names,

Then you will have your real names too. " Su Wu, who was silent for a moment, said.

"Oh."

Whether it is a little boy or a dumb girl, they are not keen on the matter of naming.

They don't care what others call them,

If it is a title, it can make myself eat a full meal,
Then they will be enthusiastic about this title.

After some conversation,
The two boys were finally not so scared.

Huddled in the tattered mattress and fell into a deep sleep.

Su Wu sat back in the corner of the temple,
He closed his eyes and rested.

When I wake up again,

It was dark outside.

She was covered with the torn bedding.

The two boys are no longer in the temple.

He looked speechlessly at the lice and fleas crawling around in the cotton wool, got up and lifted the quilt, and skillfully touched the few lice that crawled up his neck to death,

Turned out of the temple gate.

outside the bamboo forest,
The sound of the master beating the firewood pot was tinkling, bang bang, very lively.

A burst of fragrance came from there.

Su Wu walked through the bamboo forest,

On that leveled open space,
Sure enough, I saw Master waving the spatula,

Stir frying dog meat.

——When passing by the bamboo forest, Su Wu had already noticed that the two front legs of the dog in the forest were gone, and only a torso was left hanging in the bamboo forest.

Two little boys sat by the firewood stove,
The dumb girl brought firewood from afar,
The little boy filled the stove with firewood.

The fire burns hotter and hotter,
The fat old man just immerses himself in stir-frying dishes,
Without raising his head, he said to the second boy: "Go alone and call your brother up, it's time to eat!"

"Yes!" The little boy quickly responded, stood up from the pony,
Turning around, he saw the skinny young man walking towards him - Su Wu.

"elder brother!"

The little boy greeted quickly.

The dumb girl also stopped what she was doing, looked at Su Wu, and went back to moving firewood.

Hearing the little boy's greeting, Li Yueshan also raised his head, and glanced at Su Wu: "Look at your haunted eyes, go wash your face and come over to eat!"

"..."

Su Wu didn't feel that he was "obsessed with the sun".

But since Master said so,

He is not easy to refute,

So he scooped up a scoop of water from the bucket next to the open space, and then washed his face.

Beside the firewood stove,
Master served four bowls of rice,
Spread steaming dog meat on top,
In his bowl at the front, the rice was sticking out, the meat was only two or three thin pieces, and some vegetable soup and fat.

The four of them lined up in the order that Li Yueshan was at the front, followed by Su Wu, the little boy, and the dumb girl. They sat down,
Pick up chopsticks and start eating,
It doesn't matter who moves the chopsticks first and who moves the chopsticks second.

before meals,

Li Yueshan lit the pipe pot as usual,
Sucking on the cigarette holder,
Watching the three children gobble up,

eyes are satisfied,
And a little sad.

There is a saying that "a half-sized boy eats me to death", what's more, Li Yueshan has to raise not only one and a half-sized boy, but also two boys who eat a lot?
He rubbed his chest,
There is a hard thing attached to the palm of the hand to the chest.

It is a jade Buddha given to him by his master and wife before his death.
'Should still be able to sell some money...'

After touching this Jade Buddha, Li Yueshan felt relieved,
smoke half a cigarette,

eat a bowl of rice,

Smoke after dinner.

blah blah blah blah
puff,

Smoke covered his face,
He looked hesitantly at Su Wu who was going to wash the dishes, and then at the two 'Xiao Douding' who were busy moving the bench. He hesitated for a long time, until he saw Su Wu stepping over to sit down,
Only then did the master make up his mind: "...noon?"

"Huh? Huh!" Su Wu nodded.

"tonight,
Otherwise, why don't you go for another trip?
Take this little guy. He pointed to the little boy, and then pointed to the dumb girl, "The little girl is timid, and she will probably do something bad. You take him to deliver rice tonight, so that this little guy can get familiar with it."

The little girl will stay here and help me light the fire. "

Before Su Wu could speak,
The fat old man's eyes were full of apology: "It stands to reason that you went there last night, and it's not your turn tonight—but who made you older than them and have another experience of running errands?
you take him with you,
He can..."

Li Yueshan whispered to Su Wu: "The chance of his survival is always higher."

Then, he said again: "When you come back this time,
Master, I will officially name you as a big brother!
From now on, you will be our elder brother of Yinxi lineage! "

I can tell,

The fat old man is also very tangled,
He was not willing to let Su Wu take any more risks.

But I feel sorry for the two little beans.

"Master..."

"what?"

"I can go alone tonight as usual."

"That won't work, that won't work!

Children have to exercise. Our Kitchen God Sect can't develop only by relying on one branch.

You take him, take him! "

Seeing that Master insisted on this, Su Wu nodded and agreed: "Okay, then I will take this child with me."

"Very good, very good."

The fat old man grinned,
He coughed violently again.

……

As the day of the first watch draws near,
Su Wu and the little boy were ready to go.

Master Li Yueshan told the little boy over and over again: "Follow your elder brother well, he has passed by once and knows how to go, you just follow him, look for this person, the others even if your dead relatives Mother climbed out and asked you to follow them,
You pretend not to see it!

Remember? "

"Remember!" The first time he did something, the little boy was a little scared, but he was more curious and eager to try.

"right,

Do not be afraid,
If you are afraid of tricks, tricks will eat you,
You are not afraid of tricks,

can settle down,

Then you can always find a way to control the trick! "Looking at the look on the little boy's face, Li Yueshan smiled—this doesn't seem like a timid boy, although he is not as good as the big disciple baby,

But not too bad!

He checked the food basket Su Wu was carrying,
Patted Su Wu on the shoulder: "Come back tomorrow morning, Master will cook a chicken for you to eat!"

"chicken?

Where did it come from? " Su Wu asked with a smile to Master.

The little boy next to him also had bright eyes.

"Hey hey hey..."

The master smiled triumphantly,

Turn around and tear a cloth bag from under a square table,

He took out a fat pheasant whose paws and wings were tied up, and kept poking around,
"How about it?
Haha!

Master caught it in the wild forest to the south while you were sleeping! "The fat old man laughed loudly.

Su Wu was also full of smiles: "Master, you don't rest during the day and night,
Tomorrow morning I will see,

You go to sleep for a while. "

"The old man is in good health!
Besides,

Nothing to do during the day,

I often fall asleep, hey, don’t worry about me, let’s go, let’s go—”

"Let's go, Master."

"Then let's go, Grandpa Stove Master."

"Go!
Come back early tomorrow,

Stop running to the ditch to take a bath! "

……

Su Wu took the little boy along the path indicated by the master.

The two largest clusters of weird creatures around here should be Mantou Mountain and Xitaiping.
After passing these two places, the road is smooth.

nature,

The destination, Tanjia Village, is wandering strangely.

But it can't be said that it is safe.

This time, when Su Wu and the little boy passed Mantou Mountain together,
It is completely different from the scene when Su Wu crossed Mantou Mountain alone,
——Mantou Mountain has become a mountain full of graves,

Every tomb is cracked,

Human heads emerged from the cracks one by one,

He stared straight at the two of them.

Such a situation,

The little boy turned pale with fright.

Su Wu felt nothing.
In contrast, he felt that the scene of the tombs surrounded by old trees and dead vines last night was more eerie.
Yes,

At the moment, he uttered a voice to calm the little boy,
Take advantage of this time to teach the other party how to deal with it,
While spreading the paving rice continuously,

The dirty words and comforting words in the mouth are seamlessly switched,

He took the little boy and ran from the top of Mantou Mountain to the foot of the mountain.

Passed this level.

"But remember?

Just like Master said, if you encounter a trick, don't be afraid,
You are afraid of Gui, and Gui will bully you.

in contrast,

If you can settle down and observe carefully, you can always find a way to control the trick! "Su Wu earnestly taught his future juniors.

The little boy nodded repeatedly,
The excitement before made him hear Su Wu's words in his heart.

"I, I remember!"

"Brother is bold, not afraid of them, but scolding them,

So they in turn became afraid of their elder brother,

My brother threw rice grains at them again, just to stop them! "The little boy summed up his previous knowledge.

Su Wu couldn't help but laugh.

The real treachery does not have the emotion of 'fear',

Not even emotions at all.

But the little boy understands this way,
There is nothing wrong with it.

"You are right to think so.

It's just that if you are brave, you will die faster under the hands of Sly,

But if you are bold and careful,

It is not difficult to escape and survive in the face of tricks. " Su Wu said.
