cloudless sky

The sky is twilight, the sun is rising from the distant mountains, and the clear and light rays of light come from far away and sprinkle down the cliffs. This piece of hanging cliffs faces southwest, and only a little bit of light is slightly bent, staining the trees in one corner.

Zhong Chongtang bandaged several flesh wounds on Chu Wu, frowning, full of self-blame but unable to speak out.

On the fifth day of the fifth day, breathing in softly, he asked, "Mr. Chongtang, is your injury healed?" "It's ok." "What about the internal injury?" "It's ok." "Oh, then this is useless. As Chu Wu said, he took out a pill from his sleeve, handed it to Zhong Chongtang, and said with some pride: "I stole it from Tan Zhonglu. Even though I can't beat her, I have to get some back. This is I have taken the antidote for snake venom, Mr. Chongtang, take it, if you feel something is wrong, take one."

Zhong Chongtang didn't take the medicine, he stretched out his hand to rub his head, and said with a wry smile, "You let snakes bite more than me, you silly fifth day."

On the fifth day of the lunar new year, I stretched out my arms again, and said: "Grandfather helped me relieve it, you have an internal injury, what should you do if you can't relieve it?"

"I'm not inferior to you, a cheap master. I really don't know who is stronger in a fight." Zhong Chongtang closed his palms with a smile, took his hand and stuffed the medicine back into his sleeve, and said, "Or Let it go, let it go for me, we won't be afraid to meet Tan Zhonglu again."

Ping Ping lay on Chu Wu's lap and looked up at him, suddenly turned himself upside down, smirked, and didn't know why he was happy.Seeing that Zhong Chongtang had finished wrapping the fifth day, he opened his arms and asked him to hug him.

"It hurts, you are stupid, don't shoot me." Chu Wu was fierce, but still picked him up and hugged him.

"Stupid Ping Ping just wants you, not me, and he will cry loudly as soon as you leave." Zhong Chongtang stood up and tidied up Ping Ping's grass nest, picked up his shapeless coat, and wrapped it around him, As soon as the two hands were close to him, he was about to cry.Zhong Chongtang could only withdraw his hands, scratched his head, and said, "Look, he doesn't want me anymore when you come back."

Chu Wu slapped his flat butt, and was about to talk about him, but couldn't help laughing, and said, "I'll carry him on my back, it's not so heavy after it's tied."

"Okay, you carry him and I carry you." Zhong Chongtang smiled and handed the tattered coat to Chu Wu.

"Mr. Chongtang, then how did you bring back Pingping? He was crying so stupidly." Chuwu took it over and wrapped Pingping up. Zhong Chongtang helped him tie Pingping up on his back. She babbled, patted his shoulder, and patted the wound bitten by the snake. Chu Wu grinned in pain and scolded him again.

"His mother died early, and he was brought up by a nanny. He followed Bao Pingping all the way from Yinjian Villa, and only let her go back to his home when he was near." Zhong Chongtang said.

"Did that nanny tell Tan Zhonglu?" Chu Wu asked.

"Maybe, that nanny is not a martial arts learner, and she hasn't done anything bad, so I can't just kill her to silence her. Originally, I wanted to stay at home for a while, and after a few words, I would take you with me and send this child far away. I didn't expect to go somewhere...but the three of us walked out together after all." Zhong Chongtang said.

"Well," Chu Wu nodded vigorously, turned his head to look at Ping Ping who was giggling on his back, sighed, and then smiled.

Zhong Chongtang stretched out his hand to pull Chu Wu up, and lightly lifted him onto his shoulders, and the three of them stacked up on their backs.Chu Wu supported Pingping with one hand behind his head, and one hand on Zhong Chongtang's shoulder. Zhong Chongtang turned his back to support him, and said with a smile, "Let's go, we don't go into caves either." Yes, fly up!"

"Fly!" Chu Wu shouted with a smile.

"Hey!" Pingping shouted.

Zhong Chongtang stood on the edge of the hanging cliff, took a look at Zhong Lubai's path up the mountain, jumped up, and volleyed upwards.Chu Wu and Ping Ping were on his back watching the Bi Lishan Rock flash past in front of his eyes, Ping Ping just yelled, Chu Wu showed Zhong Chongtang the way, shouting: "That, that can land! Be careful, climb with your hands Ah, Mr. Chongtang! I can hold on to it firmly, and I won’t fall!”

"Don't make noise." Zhong Chongtang said.

With one foot kicking out, he kicked down a piece of weathered broken rock, jumped up with his strength, followed by another foot into a shallow depression, fortunately the hanging cliff was closer to the half-mountain cliff, although it was dangerous, he jumped up immediately up.

Zhong Chongtang strode forward with his two children on his back, unfolding his lightness kung fu, and soon came to the stone path over the mountain.

"Mr. Chongtang, didn't grandpa tell us to go east? There are many people in the west." Chu Wu asked.

"Don't go east, nor go west," Zhong Chongtang stepped up the stone steps. A day ago, the extremely difficult section of the journey has now shrunk to an inch, and said at the same time: "Let's go north. , to find Steward Su of the Marquis Mansion in Weibei. Since you betrayed the Zhong family, you might as well betray it completely."

"Isn't Hou's mansion getting better with Zhong's family again, will you help us?"

"Don't listen to your grandpa's nonsense, the Hou Mansion didn't just distribute the relief money to win over the Zhong family. Weibei is a high-lying place, so there was no disaster in the first place, and people contributed during the flood. At the earliest, they wanted to hand over the good silver to the Zhong family. , and distribute them as a whole, the Zhong family does not accept it based on the opinion of the family. When the disaster money is lost at the Zhong family, the Hou Mansion donates more money to the affected people. It is disaster relief, and it is also the face of the Zhong family. Almost mad."

"They made a big mess, and the Hou Mansion helped to make up for it, but no one can find out that they did bad things, so they are still angry?" Chu Wuqi asked.

"You don't understand their thoughts, it doesn't matter if you don't understand, you are still young." Zhong Chongtang said.

"I'm not young anymore, I'm only mediocre." Chu Wu said.

"Yeah, you little guy already knows too much." Zhong Chongtang smiled wryly, and said, "I can't teach you anything. If I didn't take you around and leave you at a relative's house, maybe you would still Can never understand."

"Mr. Chongtang, if I don't say 'it's all my fault', don't you either." Chu Wu said.

"Okay," Zhong Chongtang said with a smile, "Well said on the fifth day of the lunar new year!"

"Let's go to the Hou's Mansion and tell them that the villains of Zhong's family cheated them and made them pay a large sum of money for nothing. I'm not grateful! Let them ask for the debt!" Chu Wu snorted fiercely.

"You don't understand this again. The Hou Mansion is willing to expose the faults of the Zhong family and ruin the reputation of the Zhong family, and they can't care about the money." Zhong Chongtang said with a smile: "We only need to expose the faults and give it all." Revealed! Tell Butler Su that Zhong Chongyan may have secretly communicated with the Three Corpses Gate, and the remnants of the Three Corpses Gate are still there, so the Hou Mansion has to be strict with it."

"what?"

"Don't understand?"

"Mr. Chongtang, I thought I was very smart, but these two days I found that I don't understand anything." Chuwu sighed, patted Pingping's little hand on his shoulder, and said: "Fortunately, there is a stupid Pingping, no matter how stupid I am Nor is he stupid."

"Yeah!" Pingping seemed to know that he said bad things, and Pingzui was about to cry.

"Don't cry!" Zhong Chongtang hurriedly said.

"Ping Ping is good, so good, don't cry, don't cry..." Chu Wu hurriedly coaxed, this time he couldn't coax him anymore, Ping Ping was crying at the beginning, the longer he dragged on, the more he cried, the more wronged he was, wow Wail up.

Zhong Chongtang hurriedly took out a few fruits, went to the core and stuffed them for Chu Wu, shouting: "Feed him quickly!"

Chu Wu took it and hurriedly stuffed it into Pingping's mouth, but this time he refused to eat the fruit, so he spit it out, and Chu Wu's body was covered with paste.

"Smelly Pingping! What the hell are you doing!" Chu Wu was so angry that he twisted his face with his backhand. Pingping's little face twisted, and he cried even more miserably. -"

"Mr. Chongtang, is he not willing to eat fruit anymore, do I have to find some milk for him?" Chu Wu asked worriedly.

"It's okay to find some porridge." Zhong Chongtang said sadly.

Along the way, accompanied by cries that are intermittent, high and low, we zigzag through the stone path, pass through the forest, turn over the mountain, and run all the way down the mountain. Zhong Chongtang ran faster and faster after a long journey. No matter how fast he ran, Pingping was still crying on his back, Zhong Chongtang asked very sadly: "He is obviously hungry, why is he still crying so hard?"

"I don't understand, I'm still young." Chu Wu said with a sad face.

"Hey, let me look here, look over there, if you find a family in the mountains, hunters, farmers, or tea sheds, let's go and ask for a bowl of rare rice!" Zhong Chongtang said.

"Oh!" Chuwu firmly patted Pingping on the shoulder to comfort him, while looking around.

The hard work paid off, and they found a house in the middle of an apricot forest at the foot of the mountain. Unfortunately, the wooden houses were empty, there was no stove, and there was no pot.Ping Ping had taken a break from crying for a while, but when he found out that there was no food to eat, he continued to cry. He wanted to leave him here on the fifth day of the lunar new year and wait until he found something to eat, but he couldn't bear it.

After walking half a mile forward, turning around a big bend in the mountain depression, I saw a few scattered fields with a few rows of seedlings planted. There were two farmhouses behind the fields. Zhong Chongtang rushed forward with two strides behind his back. Entering the small courtyard of the farmhouse, he asked loudly, "Is anyone there? This countryman, can I ask for a bowl of porridge for the child? The child is very hungry!"

I heard the door of one of the rooms snap off, and someone stood behind the door, too frightened to come out.

Zhong Chongtang patted Chu Wu on the back, Chu Wu hurriedly asked: "Whether it is uncle, aunt, uncle, aunt or brother or sister in the door, please help my brother, just give me a mouthful of thin soup, even if there is no rice! "

"No, nothing!" Someone trembled at the door, it was a woman's voice.

"Auntie! Auntie, please save my younger brother... woo woo woo!" Chu Wu couldn't beg, so he faked crying along with Ping Ping, rubbing his eyes pretendingly.

Zhong Chongtang couldn't help but nodded slightly in admiration, he was far behind in the skill of coaxing people in the fifth day of junior high school.The two cried in various ways, and after a while, something was thrown from under the door, Chu Wu jumped off Zhong Chongtang's back, walked over and picked up a piece of bean cake, it was rough in shape and not very tasty to look at.

"No rice! We can't eat rice either!" said the person at the door.

"Thank you, Auntie. Auntie's kindness will be rewarded!" Chuwu made a bow to the door while holding the bean cake.

Zhong Chongtang also thanked loudly, and led Chu Wu out of the small courtyard together, then picked him up and strode away.I found a mountain stream, broke up the bean cake on the fifth day of the lunar new year, melted it with water, and fed it to Pingping little by little.Pingping was willing to eat this time, took a few mouthfuls, hiccupped and turned away.On the fifth day of the lunar new year, the remaining half of the bean cake was divided into two halves, and half was forced to be given to Zhong Chongtang, and the two ate together with the fruit.

"Let's find another family that looks richer to beg for food, and I won't go in. It scares people, so you take Pingping with you." Zhong Chongtang made a plan, and he couldn't help shaking his head and laughing: "We It became a gang of beggars."

"If it wasn't for the stinky and picky mouth, I wouldn't beg for food!" Chu Wu said angrily.

"Hahaha." Zhong Chongtang laughed out loud.

Ping Ping sat on the side with a bulging belly, looked at the two of them with dark eyes, waved his hands twice, and opened his hands to hug Chu Wu again.Chu Wu sighed, picked him up resignedly, and said angrily, "I'll throw you away sooner or later!"
