After they got married, they talked to each other about their life experiences. Li Huimao's life experience was quite tragic. His mother, Li Niang, was a singer and singer.But Li Niang wanted to be good, so she followed a young master from a martial arts family early on.At the end of the day, when the friendship was strong, the son also swore to Li Niang that he would not let her be wronged. Although Li Niang could not become his wife, he would not marry anyone else, and there would only be her in the family.The good times didn't last long, the young master couldn't resist the reproach of the elders in the family, so he hired a young lady from a well-matched family.

When the young lady entered the door, she was the master mother, and she couldn't tolerate Li Niang in her eyes.In less than a year, Li Niang was kicked out of the house on the pretext that she was unable to have children.

Li Niang had no choice but to make a living, so she had to go back to her old job and went to the brothel Chuguan to continue singing.At this time, Li Niang found out that she was pregnant.She went back to look for the young master, but the young master did not dare to recognize him, and the mistress even mocked her for the bastard she got somewhere.As a result, her heart was completely cold, she endured the humiliation, and gave birth to him.His father denied it, so he took his mother's surname Li.

"I was called Gray Cat when I was a child, Li Gray Cat." Li Huimao's eyes flashed a haze, and the corners of his lips were filled with a disdainful smile: "I followed my mother, and she took me with her wherever she went to sing. I I remember that people would not let me in, and my mother begged me humbly, repeatedly assuring me that I was good, and let me be with her. I was very good, I hid in the corner, and never ran and screamed. Sometimes I would go to some noble houses On the road, I hid in the corner, and occasionally I saw their children wearing red and willow green, swinging and fighting crickets. I saw a few young masters flying a kite. The kite was beautiful. It was a big colorful butterfly. I couldn't help but ran out, wanting to play with them. The kite is their favorite thing, they don't know it Me, don’t let me touch the kite, and I insist on seeing it. Once they came and went, they started arguing, and the commotion became louder. All the nannies and mothers who served them came over and beat me up. My mother came over after hearing the news. They humiliated my mother again. At this time, I was in a hurry, and I didn't know where the strength came from. I knocked down the old mother who was holding me, snatched the butterfly kite from his young master, and tore it into pieces. Broken, of course, I was beaten again for this, but when I saw the young master lost the kite, I was so distressed and cried loudly, my heart was so happy..."

"Brother, you are so pitiful." Yao Ximu heard his voice tremble afterward, and he panicked in his heart, and regretted, "Oh, I shouldn't have let you say these things."

"It's okay." Li Huimao waved his hand: "It's all old things, but I never told anyone about it, it's a bit messy." He cleared his throat, and then said: "Later my mother followed a knight, that man He is a member of the Liuyan Sect. He was very kind to us, mother and child, and bought a house to accommodate us. I call him Uncle, and he also taught me martial arts. I thought life would get better like this, but it didn’t last long. Didn't come back. After half a year, a group of people broke into my house, saying that they were my uncle's fellow disciples, and my uncle had been killed by the enemy. They found out that my mother was a witch sent by the enemy, and deliberately confused him. They stole the Ziwu Baogong, the secret book of the Liuyan Sect, from him, and killed him. My mother was powerless to argue. They turned my house upside down and couldn’t find it, so they tortured and questioned my mother, burned her hands and feet, cut her face with a knife..."

Li Huimao lowered his head, took a deep breath, covered his eyes, and sighed: "I feel a bit speechless..."

"Brother." Yao Ximu leaned forward to give him comfort, "If you don't want to say it, then don't say it."

Li Huimao rested for a moment, then shook his head: "No, I've said it all, I don't feel comfortable stopping it, so let's continue. I was small and weak at that time, and I couldn't beat them. When I rushed up, I was kicked by them. By the wall, fainted. When I woke up, the house was empty, my mother was gone, the inside and outside of the house were in a mess, and all valuables were emptied. I ran out crying, and went straight along the road Go, I kept walking in a daze, without any feeling, as if walking in the mist, I would not be hungry or sleepy. Until I met a wandering Taoist priest, he patted my shoulder, and I felt a burst of warmth The heat from his palms entered his body. The mist in front of me cleared up, and I saw the Taoist priest with white hair and a childlike face, and his clothes fluttering. I thought I had met a god. I thought I was dead and in the sky. But I felt hungry again, and I felt pain all over my body, especially my feet. I looked down and saw that my feet were bloody and painful. I fell to the ground. At this moment, I realized in my heart that I was still alive and not dead. The Taoist saw that I was pitiful and gave me a hand. I took a steamed bun, and took out a pill from his kit, melted it into wine, and applied it on my feet to heal my wounds. I kept saying thank you, but he shook his head and sighed, bitter. My child. He asked me again if I would like to follow him as his apprentice. I agreed without even thinking about it. Later, I found out that he is the immortal Xuanhe Zhenren in the world. Master changed my name to Li Huimao and taught me Martial arts, seeing my dexterity again, I even taught the ability to do sex."

"Is the human-skin mask peeled off from a human face?"

"No." Li Huimao shook his head: "My master is a monk, how do you do such a thing. The mask is made of prepared agar, flour, and honey. Because it is as thin as a cicada's wing and similar to human skin, it is called human- Leather masks are not made of real human-skin."

"Later, when I became successful, I wore a mask and went to the Liuyan Sect to inquire about my mother's whereabouts. I didn't report my hope at first, but when I got the news of her tragic death, I was still furious. In my rage, I killed Da Qi killed his whole family and avenged my mother. After I took revenge, I regretted it. Sure enough, Master saw that I had created such a killing karma, and didn’t accuse me of anything. I can do it on my own, and I will no longer be called a master and a student. I am very sad, but I know that this is the end of the matter, and it is irreparable. I kowtowed to the master three times, and I left. Jugglers work hard to make a living. Once I was a juggler in a wealthy family. I went out to the backyard for a while, and when I came back, I was raped and stole things from his house. They wanted to arrest me and go to the government. The host was kind enough to hold me back, paid me money, and continued on the road after making peace. After more than a month, I went back to that house, thinking that people would call me a thief, so I would be a thief. I am easy Rong pretended to be his father, stole the family treasure, and left a note with a drawing of a cat. When I went out, I pawned the family treasure and got hundreds of taels of silver. In addition to buying wine and meat, Walking down the road and seeing whoever likes it gives money to whoever it is, quickly squanders it, and then I steal it. I like seeing people's faces when they lose something they love. It's not right, I know, but it's the only thing that doesn't Something that would leave me feeling empty."

Li Huimao spread his hands, showing a bit of a rascal: "That's how the name Thieves and Thieves came about."

"Your life experience is rougher than mine." Yao Ximu looked at him, "When I was young, my family was in Jinling, and my father was a captain. My family was big and had many servants. One night when I was eight years old, my whole family was killed. Yes, I escaped from the dog hole and ran all the way to Luomei Villa, the owner of Luomei Villa is my adoptive father and took me in. I grew up with the young master in the villa with food and clothing, without suffering. "

"Jiang Jingshen is your adoptive father." Li Huimao asked, "Who is your father? Why was your family destroyed?"

"My father's name is Yao Zhiyuan, and he is in the same sect as Master Jiang."

"Weird." Li Huimao frowned, "I heard that more than ten years ago, Yao Duwei's house in Jinling was caught on fire, which led to the tragic death of the whole family. After hearing what you said today, they were actually killed by someone?"

"Yeah." Yao Ximu's face was heavy, and he closed his eyes: "The sword was stabbed, the archers were on the periphery, the blood flowed like a river, and I was the only one who survived."

Li Huimao patted his head and sighed: "You are also a poor child." He thought for a while, then suddenly said: "Xiaoximu, your home is in Jinling, Luomei Villa is far away in southern Anhui, how did you get there?"

"I don't remember." Yao Ximu pursed his lips tightly, "I also find it strange that I was only eight years old at the time. It is almost impossible for me to travel thousands of miles by myself, pass through mountains and rivers, and reach Luomei Mountain Villa smoothly. Someone must see me off But this memory of mine seems to have been cut off out of thin air. The token that my nanny gave me before she died was nowhere to be found after arriving at Luomei Mountain Villa. I asked my master, and he said that there is such a precedent, because some people don’t want to remember the tragic In the past, that memory is closed by itself, and I should be the same, so I can’t remember it.”

Li Huimao curled his lips, disapproving of this reason, and snorted coldly: "What closed memory, you have been subjected to soul-destroyer. Maybe it was done by the people from Luomei Villa, that Jin Mahayana is a master of soul-destroyer , it is estimated that this matter is related to your family being wiped out, and they dare not offend that enemy family."

"I've thought about it a long time ago." Yao Ximu covered his face with a wry smile, leaned back, and said in a low voice, "But I believe in them and the young master. He doesn't want to tell me, there is always his reason, maybe The time has not yet come, maybe the enemy is too strong, even they have to be wary, wouldn't I strike a stone with an egg?"

"You are really good at deceiving yourself." Li Huimao laughed, and patted him on the back, "Don't be afraid, Big Brother will protect you from now on."

"Then thank you in advance, brother."

"Don't say such outrageous things."
