pamper the rich

When Xingmang came to Taoist Zixu, You Jinglin had just finished helping the old man carry water, and then helped him climb to the wall to take down the dried vegetables.The old man thanked him cheerfully. You Jinglin thought that the help he needed was almost done. Who would have thought that the old man handed him a kitchen knife and asked him to cut up the dried vegetables and put them in the jar .

You Jinglin was also confused, he never did such a thing of respecting the old and loving the young back then, this is Ning Qi's style.But today he came here to burn incense and worship gods, since he was asked to do good deeds and accumulate virtue, he was not short of these two leaders.

It's just that Xingmang is a little strange. Master has never been a person who easily asks others to help him before. Why is he beating a pilgrim around endlessly today?

But looking at the old man lying on the recliner with the look of an old god, this person should be quite easy to order?Xingmang stepped forward, called Master, and whispered a few words into the old man's ear.The old man stood up immediately and asked, "The two children came together?... Besides them, is there anyone else here?"

Xingmang shook his head and said, "I didn't see that."

The old man nodded, turned his head and said to You Jinglin: "Young man, uncle, go ahead and have a look, you cut it first."

You Jinglin is not bad at using a knife. While cutting vegetables, he said, "Well, go and do your work, sir." The sun was shining at this moment, and You Jinglin was chopping vegetables under the sun, cutting while cutting. Tucao in my heart.It's crazy, why am I busy with the old man chopping vegetables here?

After giving instructions, the old man followed Xingmang to the front hall.As soon as he entered the door, he saw Wei Zeyan and Ning Hanqi sitting on the chairs in the small living room and whispering to each other. The two were very close, and it was obvious that they had a strong relationship.

After the old man came in, the two of them immediately sat up and went up to them, asking: "Is this the Taoist priest Zi Xu?"

The old man sized them up for a while, straightened his hunched waist, looked up at Ning Hanqi, and said, "Exactly, is this the younger generation of the Ning family?"

Ning Hanxi said: "Yes, old man Zi Xu."

The old man smiled, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Well, yes, yes, very well! Well, speaking of which, I still have a little friendship with your grandfather. Regarding the matter of your Ning family, I know A little bit, but I don’t know much. I know a little about the main branch of the Moxiong Sect.” Said the old man waved Xingmang to go out, Xingmang nodded, and closed the door behind them before leaving.

The old man beckoned and asked Ning Hanxi to sit beside him.Ning Hanxi sat down according to his words, and Taoist Zixu pinched his wrist and felt his pulse with his beard.Ning Hanxi wanted to pull his hand back at first, but after thinking that the old man knew about Mo Suozong, he put his hand back again.

The direction of his pulse, which can be detected by an old doctor of traditional Chinese medicine, must be the Xi pulse.

The old man chuckled, and said: "The little guy is quite strong! I am here to congratulate the Ning Family's Mo Suizong for having a descendant."

Ning Hanxi smiled a little shyly, and said, "Thank you, Daoist."

The old man shook his hand and said, "Your child looks exactly like your father. Oh, but there is nothing strange about it. The lineage of Mo Suozong is almost all carved out of the same mold."

Ning Hanxi asked with some doubts: "Old man, do you know that there are so many things about Mo Suizong, are you a friend who is very familiar with my grandfather?"

The old man thought for a while and said, "It's a pity that we have been friends for a few years! He values ​​love and righteousness, so he left early."

Ning Hanqi had also heard about his grandfather.He couldn't talk nonsense about the elders, so he also sighed.

Taoist Zixu looked at Wei Zeyan again, and nodded to him.The last time his mother came over, Wei Zeyan was still lying on the hospital bed.Now that I see people, I feel that this red line is not wrong.This young man is also a good-looking talent, and there is a sense of righteousness between his brows, not the kind of person with evil intentions.It is said that love is born from the heart, but it is not true at all.

It was only then that Ning Hanxi finally realized that Taoist Zixu directed Wei Zeyan to Ningjia Village, not because of some prescriptive words, but because he knew about the Ning family's affairs and did it on purpose.This red line was really drawn by him, and this old man can be regarded as their matchmaker.It seems that I have to thank him well.

Taoist Zixu asked again: "Is the village okay?"

Ning Hanxi replied: "Oh, not bad, much better than before." He wasn't sure how much Taoist Zixu knew about the Ning family's affairs, so it's better not to reveal too much about Lingquan and Ning's ancestral spring good.

Taoist Zixu nodded, and suddenly heard a joyful little voice from outside the door: "Han Qi! Han Qi! Are you here? What are you talking about and you are still behind our backs, can I go in?"

Taoist Zixu looked up at the door, Ning Hanxi said: "Oh, this is my younger brother Ning Chenxi, a child of my uncle's family. Can you let him in?"

Taoist Zixu shook his hands unconsciously, nodded and said: "Of course people from the Ning family can come in."

Xingmang opened the door from the outside, and Chenxi jumped in joyfully, holding a red talisman bag in her hand.The one who presented the treasure said to Han Qi: "Brother, I asked for a magic talisman over there, and I also asked for one for you by the way. You wear it on your body to keep you safe."

Nanfeng also followed in from behind, with a look of reproach in his eyes: "Can you run slower? It's not that you don't know your situation!"

Taoist Zixu raised his head, first walked around Chen Xi for a while, and then looked at Nan Feng.After thinking for a while, I didn't say much.Nan Feng grabbed Chen Xi and said, "There are elders here, why are they so rude?"

Only then did Chenxi see the old man sitting next to him, and he immediately bowed to the old man and said, "Hi old man, I'm Chenxi, I was sorry just now! I just wanted to give that amulet to my younger brother. They said I was reckless, but It's much more restrained now. Don't blame me!"

Taoist Zixu was in a trance for a moment, he stood up, walked to Ning Chenxi's side, raised his hand and touched his face tremblingly.Said: "This child, has grown so big?"

Chen Xi dodged back, feeling that this was not very polite, then stood up again and said, "Uh...well, I am 21 years old this year."

In Taoist Zixu's dim eyes, there was a trace of tears falling down.Then he smiled, sat back with a hunched body, and said: "Oh, look at me, at this age, I feel enviable when I see you young people! You have a great youth, and each of you can't wasted."

Nan Feng helped Chen Xi to sit on the chair, and said: "He? This life is just wasted, and the good youth is just a burden to him."

Chen Xi couldn't help but wanted to confront Nan Feng again: "You're a burden!" Thinking about being in front of outsiders, she restrained herself a little.He thought to himself, that old man was so strange just now, why did he touch his face?

The people behind just exchanged some pleasantries, but didn't say anything more.

Before coming here, Ms. Shu reminded the old man not to mention money, otherwise he would be unhappy.Wei Zeyan had no choice but to say nothing, but took the offerings of joss sticks and burned them on the altar in front of the main hall.Looking at the time, it was about the same time, and the few people were ready to go back.

Taoist Zixu was old after all, so he asked Xingmang to accompany them on the pretext of lack of energy, and went back to the backyard by himself.

You Jinglin, the man in the backyard, had already chopped all the dried vegetables that should be cut. He put the dried vegetables into the jar, and when he saw the old man came back, he said to him while working: "Master, come back!" Already? I have finished all the vegetables that should be cut, come and take a look, is there anything else I can help with?"

The old man ignored him, sat back on the reclining chair just now, covered his face and began to cry.

You Jinglin was stunned, he thought for a while, rubbed his vegetable-chopping hand on his clothes, stepped forward and sat down in front of the old man, bent down to look at him for a while, and asked, "Master, what are you doing?" What are you crying for?"

The old man put his hand down, and after a moment of stunned he said, "My time is approaching, and it's only a few days. I'm a bit reluctant to leave, after all, life is so beautiful."

You Jinglin looked at the old man's residence, the dilapidated brick house, the tattered clothes, the bent waist, and the wrinkles that could kill mosquitoes.He didn't think the old man's life was any good.But people are always afraid of death, so he sighed and said: "When you have nothing to love in life, you will feel that death is not so terrible."

For example, he has nothing now, and he has nothing to love in his life.He had thought it all over, and when he died, he asked his cousin to cut off the power to the cold storage.I was lying next to Ning Qi, and let him directly treat this underground cold storage as his and his grave.Life cannot be the same, and it is good to share the same acupuncture point after death.

The old man frowned and asked: "You are young, what are you talking about?"

You Jinglin didn't understand why he had to talk such useless nonsense to this uncle, maybe it was because the feelings in his heart had been suppressed for a long time, and he wanted to find a stranger to talk to?So he sat on the ground like this, and talked to the old man about the repressed feelings in his heart that he never expressed.

After listening, the old man's expression was stiff for ten minutes.You Jinglin thought it was his affection that moved him, but he didn't expect the old man to hear a low snoring sound a few minutes later.

You Jinglin: ...

He thought he must be crazy to tell this to an old man.

He got up and was about to leave when he heard that the old man had also woken up.The old man glanced at him, ignored him, picked up the kitchen knife and prepared to enter the house.As a result, he staggered, and the knife cut You Jinglin's arm just like that.

You Jinglin felt that he could dodge, but the old man held his arm, but he couldn't even move away.He frowned, subconsciously thinking that the old man probably knew fighting skills very well.

Seeing a bloody streak on his arm, the old man took a piece of white gauze and wrapped it around him, and said indifferently: "Young man, this is a small injury, you should go back and take care of it yourself!"

You Jinglin felt very helpless, so he had to leave the old man's residence in desperation, and returned to the car at the entrance of the Taoist temple to wait to join the crowd.He felt that his life today was a bit absurd. Why did he follow an old man to work in the yard for a long time and then cut him open?

After seeing everyone going out and getting into the car, he took the lead in driving and leading the way.

On the way, Wei Zeyan called You Jinglin and told him to come and sit at home.You Jinglin didn't refuse, so he followed them to the villas of Wei Zeyan and Nanfeng.

After getting out of the car, Wei Zeyan and Nanfeng noticed at the same time that You Jinglin's arm was wrapped in gauze, and their eyes lit up.
