devil's son

After arriving at the county town and settling down, Li Jiu strung together two spirit fishes with a red string, and wove a necklace to wear on Dongzai's body.Old Litou and Mrs. Sun gave up reincarnation and melted their souls into the spirit fish, and they used another way to accompany and protect Dongzai.Wearing the Lingyu necklace, Dongzai has a faint feeling that his parents are still with him. Slowly, he came out of the grief of losing his parents, and began to adapt to the new life together with Li Jiu and Ah Huang. .

Wang Jun contributed a lot to Li Jiu's adoption of the winter cub and the settlement of the old Li Tou and his wife. Through these events, the relationship between Wang Jun and Li Jiu was greatly improved.Wang Jun knew that Li Jiu was an outsider, and wanted to make friends with him.

Although Li Jiu has lived in seclusion for many years, he has not really practiced to the state of having no desires and no desires. His greatest hobby is wine.

Wang Jun often buys some special wine for internal use. When he is free, he will visit Li Jiu's house with the wine. Wang Jun is upright but tactful. He has been the captain of the criminal police for many years, and he is well-informed. Li Jiu likes him The principle of being a person and doing things, come and go, the two gradually become friends who forget each other.

Tongcheng is a small county town outside the fourth and fifth lines. It is neither rich nor prosperous. Of course, it is not completely without advantages. The environment here is good, the temperature is suitable, it is neither too cold nor too hot all year round, and the pace of life is slow. , very suitable for retirement and leisure.

In any case, Tongcheng is much more lively and prosperous than a small mountain village like Lijiacun.

Although the place where Li Jiu lives is an old alley for some years, it is better than being quiet amidst the hustle and bustle. It takes less than 10 minutes to walk to the central square of Tongcheng, and there is a park next to it. A newly built commercial pedestrian street.

Li Jiu is slightly fat, with a rosy complexion and few wrinkles on his face. Although his hair and beard are all white, he looks younger than Li Tou, who is less than 60 years old, but his real age is more than twice that of Li Tou. Not a lot.

Li Jiu is quite good at keeping in good health.Every morning, he insists on practicing Tai Chi for one to two hours, practicing Tai Chi Sword, and running around the park square twice. Before going to bed at night, he also practices the health-preserving boxing he got from the Taoism inheritance.Don't look at his careless fat old man, if he really starts to fight, the captain of the criminal police, Wang Jun, may not be able to do a few tricks on him.

He has been busy with the winter cubs recently, and his morning exercises have been interrupted for several days.After the winter cubs gradually got used to it, Li Jiu resumed the health-preserving homework that he had insisted on for decades. However, there was an extra baby in the house that needed to be taken care of. When he came back, he practiced Tai Chi silently in the yard for more than an hour. After Dongzai woke up, dressed and washed himself, he took the little guy out together.

After seven o'clock in the morning, the number of people on Tongcheng Street has gradually increased.

Dongzai still remembers the fear and confusion when he was lost in the town last time and couldn't find his father. Now that his parents are gone, he can't go back to his familiar home. The only person he knows is this fat old man. Dong Zai grabbed Li Jiu's hand nervously, trying to keep up with Li Jiu's footsteps with his short legs.

Winter Cub was still young, and his short legs started to feel sore after walking for a long time, and the sun, which he disliked very much, was gradually exposed.If the people around him were parents instead, Dongzai would definitely stop and want to hug him, but if the person next to him was Li Jiu, Dongzai would not dare to act like a spoiled child.Although Li Jiu has been very kind to him recently and gave him a lot of delicious food that he hadn't eaten before, Dong Zai always remembered that Li Jiu beat him very painfully. Dong Zai knew who he could act coquettishly or even playfully in front of whoever he wanted, but who he had to be honest with.

Fortunately, Li Jiu was careful, and soon noticed Dongzai's strenuous effort.

"Do you want me to hug you?" Li Jiu asked hesitantly, having never raised a child seriously.

Dongzai raised his head, looked at him with his mouth pursed for several seconds, and then nodded slowly.

The fat old man's embrace was very warm and soft, and Dongzai immediately thought of his stinky mother who hadn't changed.

Thinking of his mother, Dongzai's mood instantly sank.

Dong Zai's little thoughts were almost all written on his face, how could Li Jiu, who was almost mature, not see it?

"Are you hungry? Do you want to eat noodles in milk soup?" Li Jiu was not very good at coaxing the child, but after getting along with him for a few days, he found that Dong Zai's mouth was a bit gluttonous.

Milk soup noodles are a kind of noodles unique to Tongcheng. The soup base is not made of milk, but is slowly boiled with chicken, pork ribs, etc., until a milky white broth is produced. The soup is made of this broth. At the bottom, the taste of milk soup noodles is very delicious.

Milk noodle soup!

Winter Cub's big black eyes lit up, and he nodded obviously much faster than before.

Ah Huang, who had been running all day without seeing a trace, jumped out from nowhere, and yelled, "Take me, take me!" The voice was full of flattery.

Li Jiu glared at it, and said angrily, "Follow me."

Ah Huang Pi Dian Dian followed behind them, sometimes saying that Li Jiu was biased, sometimes lamenting that his status in the family had declined, and muttering all the way.

Li Jiu came to a long-established milk soup noodle shop in the city with Dong Zai in his arms. This shop not only tastes excellent in milk soup noodles, but also the steamed buns, steamed buns, special cold chicken, and free kimchi are all delicious, and the price is reasonable. It was full in the morning, if Li Jiu and the others came later, there would be plenty of people waiting.

In the past, Grandma Sun cooked almost all white water noodles for the winter cubs. It would be the best if you add some meat paste and a poached egg. Compared with the milk soup noodles, the taste is not the slightest difference.

Dong Zai finished the one-two-milk noodle soup that Li Jiu had ordered for him, drank the chicken soup in the bowl, put down the bowl and chopsticks, and looked eagerly at the steamed buns in front of Li Jiu.

"Not full yet?" Li Jiulian hadn't raised his son properly for two days, so he wasn't sure how much a three- or four-year-old child could eat. These days, Dong Zai would eat whatever he gave, and how much he would eat. How much, he never took the initiative to ask him for it, and he didn't know Dong Cub's appetite.

The greasy steamed stuffed buns smelled like scallions, and Dong Zai swallowed and nodded hesitantly.

The little baby was so cute that it made people feel distressed. Li Jiu stroked Dongzai's hair, pushed the plate in front of him, and said to him, "If you want to eat, you can take it yourself, and you can tell me what you want to eat, you know?"

Dong Zai nodded, took a small steamed stuffed bun by himself, and after gnawing small bites, he whispered to Li Jiu, "Thank you." If someone gave him something, he had to say thank you, that's how to be polite, everyone Everyone likes polite people, that's what Dad told him when he was reading a storybook.

This is the first time in so many days that Dongzai took the initiative to talk to him. Li Jiu smiled and stroked Dongzai's ugly watermelon head, "Dongzai is so good. I will wait for Grandpa to go to the park to practice sword in a while. Can I take you to get your hair cut and buy new clothes?"

Apart from being more sensitive to food, Dongzai is not very interested in other things, but he still nodded obediently.

There were not many people doing morning exercises in the park, they were all old men and women. As soon as Li Jiu passed by, these people gathered around and called the teacher.On weekdays, besides boxing and sword training, Li Jiu would also teach other old men and women who do morning exercises. His movements are standard and patient. Spontaneously called Teacher Li Jiu.

Li Jiu was older than all the old men and women present, so he could still be called a teacher.

Although Li Jiu had lost contact with Xuanmen, he occasionally saw something from these old men and old ladies, and he was willing to mention one or two points, and received a lot of good fortune.

In 2001, in a small county like Tongcheng, those who could come to the park for morning exercises every day were knowledgeable old men and women. Do something with the previous relationship, and some people will buy it.

Dong Zai is a small black family, and has no blood relationship with Li Jiu. Li Jiu wants to adopt him and transfer him to his own name. Things were done in just ten days.In private, Li Jiu took other paths.

Li Jiu hadn't come for so many days, and the group of overage disciples were all inquiring about him, worried if something happened to him.After some inquiries, everyone knew that he had adopted Dong Cub.

These old men and women are all people who have suffered a lot, and they don't care about Dongzai's ugly hairstyle and clothes. Seeing that the little guy has a very beautiful face, he timidly took Li Jiu's hand, very obedient and quiet, Li Jiu asked him to sit down. Then, he sat obediently in the shade of the tree, neither crying nor making noise, instantly comparing himself to his grandson.

After the winter cub wore the parasitic spirit fish necklace of his parents, the sinister aura on his body was hidden, and he no longer had the weird feeling that made people feel chills down his spine. When Li Jiu took him to cut his hair again and changed his He changed his hairstyle and put on suitable children's clothes, and the little guy's appearance improved a lot.With a beautiful face, big and round eyes, and a cute and quiet winter cub, these old men and women who are in the stage of kissing each other are so cute that they all want to take him home. keep.

Dongzai was a child of someone else's family before he had time to go to school at such a young age.

When he started to officially go to school, the hatred value increased several levels.

The reason is simple, this little bastard has contracted almost all the No.1s in the school since he entered school.

The only thing that can make people laugh at him is the music class and art class that he never fails, but these two things are not important in junior high and high school. No one will care, okay?

Of course, Dongzai, no, classmate Li Dongsheng is more concerned about it. He always thinks that he is very talented in painting, but it's just that the teachers, classmates and stupid Ah Huang don't know how to appreciate it.

Well, it must be so!

"Li, Li Dongsheng, what school are you planning to apply for?" After the college entrance examination, Liao Meimei, the class flower and school flower, stopped Li Dongsheng at the entrance of the examination room.

Li Dongsheng didn't like talking very much since he was a child. When he was a child, he had a fleshy and expressionless face. When he grew up, he still had no expression, but he was so good-looking. When he was a child, his big and round eyes gradually became longer with age. Under the shadowed eyelashes, the pupils are bigger and darker than ordinary people. When he looks at you without blinking, it feels like his soul is being sucked away.

"Master B." Out of politeness, Li Dongsheng answered casually, and walked away after speaking.In fact, he has never quite understood why the female students and some male students in the class from childhood to senior class blush when they look at him.

"...What?" Liao Meimei's heart almost jumped out of her chest, and she was so excited that she couldn't hear a word clearly.When she came to her senses, Li Dongsheng had already gone far.Liao Meimei couldn't help but stomped her feet, watching Li Dongsheng's back disappear into the crowd, she left angrily.

"Dong Zai, Dong Zai, you're teasing a girl again!" On the way, Ah Huang jumped out from nowhere, nimbly jumped onto Li Dongsheng's shoulder and squatted.

"...Grandpa said, let you go online less and practice more. You have to be obedient, and if you go online secretly again, I won't buy you fish." Facing familiar people (cats), Li Dongsheng speaks a little more.

The hair on Ah Huang's tail almost exploded, "Dong Zai, even if you are an antique who can't understand Internet buzzwords, you don't bring such publicity to avenge yourself! Dong Zai, Dong Zai, I find that you are learning bad things now!"

Listening to Ah Huang's heartbroken complaint, Dongzai, no, two small dimples faintly appeared at the corners of Li Dongsheng's mouth.
