"Hey, the sun is coming out from the west today, why are you running here?" The middle-aged man's voice was thick and simple, and he had the air of a storyteller. When he spoke to Lian Shuo, he naturally He found that there was a boy in blue beside Lian Shuo.

"Stop talking nonsense, stop making such nonsense!" Lian Shuo spoke to him bluntly, it seemed that the two should be familiar with each other.

"Who is this young master?" As expected, the middle-aged man asked this question.

Li Banxi didn't wait for Lian Shuo's introduction, so he imitated the other party and returned the gift: "I'm Li Banxi, I've known Lian Shuo for a while, don't need to call me son, just call me by my name."

Lian Shuo put his arms around his shoulders, and said shyly, "He and I have a good relationship! We are a family, so don't be restrained, you can just call him Banxi!" After speaking, he squeezed Li Banxi, Close to his ear and said, "You are the same as me, just call him Lao Liu."

Li Banxi pretended to smile, gently pinched a small piece of flesh in Lian Shuo's hand, quickly threw away his "salty pig's hand" and said to the middle-aged man in a respectful manner: "Hello, old six."

The sixth child looked at the young man in front of him, his face was like a bright moon, his eyes were like stars, and he was so gentle and understanding Li Li, he couldn't help but increase his favorability, and he hurriedly said with a smile: "Hey, then I won't be polite to you!"

After finishing speaking, he shouted to the back: "Ah Qing, kill the chicken behind! An important guest is coming!"

Lian Shuo hurriedly waved his hand: "Come on! Tell my sister-in-law not to kill me. I have serious business to do today, so I don't have time to eat. Save your chicken for your kid! The last time I saw him, he was skinny. .”

The sixth child scolded with a smile: "Which day are you not serious! But you really 'go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing', so tell me, who do you want to ask this time?"

Seeing Li Banxi's bewildered expression, Lian Shuo explained with a smile: "This old sixth's nickname in this town is 'Bao inquire', he is like a know-it-all, you can always find out what you want to know. Know."

After finishing speaking, he smiled wickedly at the sixth son: "To put it bluntly, it's just idle, and my sister-in-law is less concerned!"

Lao Liu was about to refute, when the original door curtain was pulled up again, and a woman in a blue skirt came out, although she was dressed plainly, she looked very charming.

It's obviously not compatible with the sixth child.

"Oh, Ah Qing, are you tired? Come here for a meeting!" The sixth child didn't close his mouth after seeing this woman, his eyes were so crowded that he almost couldn't see.

"Isn't this Lian Shuo? Why are you free today?" Although the woman named A Qing looked charming, she had a loud voice.

"Sister-in-law, don't you have something to ask the sixth child today? Come and see you by the way." Lian Shuo didn't say those polite words, and directly called the name of the reason.

After hearing this, Ah Qing didn't show any displeasure expression, she rolled up her sleeves with a smile and said in a loud voice, "Okay, you guys are here to deal with business, I'll go to the backyard to cook for you! Wait... ah, this is still going on." There is a young master!" Due to the location, she only saw Li Banxi.

Li Banxi was about to introduce herself to her, when she heard Ah Qing say: "Come on, don't leave, let's have a meal at my house together, I'll cook a few more dishes!"

Li Banxi smiled and said to Lao Liu: "Sister-in-law is really bold!"

Unexpectedly, Lian Shuo and Lao Liu looked at themselves with miserable expressions on their faces.Li Banxi asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"

Lian Shuo shook his head: "Hey, you don't know, my sister-in-law's cooking skills... the kid in his family used to be so thin, and she was fed by my sister-in-law's rice. Once she made a steamed fish meal and gave it to the rhubarb in the backyard. Big Yellow Tail patted his ass and left."

Li Banxi smirked "giggling", and his brows and eyes became tangled together: "Hahahaha...it's okay, as long as my sister-in-law is good-looking, she doesn't have to do housework too well."

As soon as someone praised his wife's looks, the sixth son immediately beamed with pride, "That's right! I've accomplished nothing in my life, and it's my greatest blessing to marry someone like Ah Qing.

Lian Shuo clicked his tongue a few times: "Hey, I know you are a fear of guilt, so my sister-in-law has gone so far. "

The sixth child laughed and scolded: "What nonsense are you talking about!" Then he said to Li Banxi: "Don't look at this kid like this, he must be a family member just by looking at his face!"

Li Banxi didn't know why Lao Liu said to himself, "Lian Shuo is a family member". It is extremely important, it should be said that he thinks he is the most important person since time travel.

Lian Shuo coughed twice: "Stop talking nonsense, it's over if you're too late! Let's talk business, no jokes."

Seeing him sitting upright, the sixth child also had a solemn expression on his face.Lian Shuo said, "Ask you for someone?"

"Who?"

"Lu Zhuqing."

Lian Shuo was afraid that someone would have the same name, so he emphasized it again: "I'm a scholar."

The sixth child sighed: "You talk about that person, don't talk about me, just go to the street and know any family."

"Oh? How do you say that?" Lian Shuo and Li Banxi were surprised.

"This Lu Zhuqing was originally a studious scholar. He was supposed to be a scholar with a bright future. However, his family was poor, and his old mother was weak and sick. This spring, he suffered a sudden illness, so he died just like that."

The two who were listening couldn't help showing sadness, sympathizing with the scholar's experience.

Seeing the expressions of the two, the sixth child sighed again and again: "It's nothing. Then Lu Zhuqing has read the sage books for ten years, so he knows benevolence, righteousness and filial piety. His mother took care of the funeral affairs, so he would not be able to take the exam for three years. After that, he had no one to rely on, and made a living by selling calligraphy and paintings, but he happened to be taken by the tyrant Wang Yang of this town."

Lian Shuo followed his master to catch demons in the town, so he naturally knew who Wang Yang was, so he began to explain to Li Banxi: "The parent official in this town is Wang Qing, and he was originally a high-ranking official in Tokyo. He is a pervert, but he is good-looking, and he is not jealous of men and women. As a result, he really got into trouble once, and the one who molested was a servant girl of a prince's family. The troubles caused by his son can only be borne by me. Who can let him discipline him? Yan, and was demoted to this town."

Li Banxi frowned: "It's really hard to change his nature. His father was relegated because of this matter. He didn't know that he would repent but made things worse. He really didn't know if it was his own fault or his parents' fault."

Lian Shuo also shook his head: "This kind of thing is hard to explain."

Seeing that the two of them stopped talking, the sixth child continued: "This scholar is already proud and arrogant. Of course he won't follow after Wang Yang likes him. After humiliating the overlord, he was taken to prison. I guess he couldn't bear it." Less suffering."

"Once his father found out, he was going to release the poor scholar himself and apologize, but as soon as he entered the prison, a big snake rushed in! It took a lot of effort to catch the housekeeper That big snake, although the big snake ran away in the end."

After hearing these two people, they had a clue, and finally connected the scholar with the snake that came to find them.

"Oh? Why did the big snake suddenly rush into the prison? I've never heard of such a thing before. Even if there are rumors that there are snakes in the mountains that can eat people, after all, no one has seen it." Lian Shuo was puzzled. Thinking, presumably this is the key to the snake finding them.

Lao Liudao: "Because once the scholar entered the mountain without incident, the people in the town said that the scholar and the snake demon were on the same road. Later, some even said that the scholar was transformed from the snake demon, otherwise How can you charm a man?"

Lian Shuo was so angry that he slapped the table, and the sixth child was so frightened that he quickly took the wooden box away from the table, so as not to be smashed by him.

"That's unreasonable! Which bastard said this? Then Wang Yang himself is a dirty bastard, how can he blame other hard-working scholars!"

After finishing speaking, he kept looking at Li Banxi's face. Li Banxi was so scared by him, he asked, "What's the matter?"

"Remember to cover your face when you go out in the future, lest these ignorant people say you are a vixen!"

Li Banxi was amused: "What nonsense are you talking about!" He was mainly concerned about the follow-up of this matter, so he asked the sixth child: "Then where is the scholar now? Is he still in prison?"

The sixth child shook his head: "I was released a few days ago, and I heard from Mrs. Wang next door that I have been haggard for a long time. I guess I have been tortured enough to be locked in the prison these days."

Li Banxi thought about it, it was normal for him to be released. After all, the bodies of those bandits had been found, and it was confirmed that the missing persons were all caused by these bandits. This scholar is indeed innocent.

Thinking of this, Li Banxi hurriedly asked: "Then do you know where this scholar is now?"

The sixth child stood up: "I guess I should pack my luggage at home and get ready to go! I heard from others two days ago that when you go out, turn right and walk for a quarter of an hour, then turn left and follow the last thatched cottage."

When Li Banxi heard that Lu Zhuqing was going to leave, he felt a little anxious. He always felt that the scholar had a relationship with the snake, so he had to let a man and a monster meet before the scholar left, so he got up and patted Lian Shuo, "Hurry up, or you won't be able to catch up." gone."

Even Shuo didn't dare to delay, so he directly pulled Li Banxi to say goodbye, and he didn't forget to ask Lao Liu to borrow a piece of cloth to cover Li Banxi's face.

The sixth child smiled and shook his head after the two left: I still have the face to say that I am not a strict wife too?

"Hey, where are those two people? Didn't they say they wanted to stay for dinner?" Ah Qing raised the curtain and found that Lao Liu was the only one left.

The sixth waved his hand: "Young man, if you can't sit still, you're going to do something big."

Ah Qing was not surprised when he saw this time, he just smiled and said: "Then today's dishes are a bit too much, you and Xiaobao will eat more later!" After speaking, he pointed his finger at his nose and threatened: "No leftovers!" ah!"

The sixth child had a smile on his face, and his heart was bitter like a yellow lotus.

Lian Shuo here is a master who knows the way, he found the thatched hut in the old six's family in a short while, and just stepped in when he bumped into a scholar head-on.

The scholar's body was thinner than Li Banxi's, so he couldn't bear the impact of Lian Shuo, a martial artist, so he kept backing away, only taking four or five steps before he stopped.

"Who are you?" The scholar saw each other strangely before they met, and couldn't help asking when he rushed to his home in such a hurry.

The two saw that this man was weak, he looked like a scholar, his features were delicate but his eyes were sunken, he was obviously tortured by the prison, so they decided that this man was the Lu Zhuqing they were looking for.

"Are you Lu Zhuqing?" Lian Shuo saw that they were all young people, so he avoided the courtesy and spoke more casually, "My name is Lian Shuo, this is Li Banxi, someone wants us to find you."

The scholar showed timidity, but at the same time he was full of grief and indignation: "Wang Yang told you to come and arrest me?"

Lian Shuo was stunned and then smiled: "What! Can we be with that non-trick thing?"

When Lu Zhuqing heard Lian Shuo scolding Wang Yang, he decided that the two of them were not from the government. Then he let go of his guard and asked doubtfully, "I have nothing to worry about, so why should someone look for me?"

"To be honest, it's not a human, but a snake." Li Banxi said, "It's still the snake that broke into the prison. Although I didn't say it clearly, I guess the snake broke in to save you."

"Save me?" Lu Zhuqing was puzzled, "But I really don't know any snakes!"

"Otherwise, let's take you to meet it, maybe I will remember it, maybe I saw it when I was a child."

Lu Zhuqing saw that Li Banxi's words were not in a hurry, like a spring breeze, so he dispelled his doubts, put his luggage on his back and locked the door, and said, "Let's go, I'll go meet it with you."

A few people came home from Yu Jian, Lu Zhuqing's face turned even paler for the first time.

"Are you okay!" When they finally arrived home, it was dusk. Li Banxi knew that ordinary people would not be able to bear this for the first time, so he helped him to sit in the house.

"Brother!" Hearing Li Banxi's voice, the giant jumped out to greet him, but found that there was another person at the door.

Lu Zhuqing was quite frightened, but the giant was not intimidating. After accepting this fact, he calmed down.

The giant sat on Li Banxi's shoulder, and said crisply: "Brother! I drew a portrait of Shengsheng!"

"Shengsheng? What is Shengsheng?"

"It's a snake! It's called Dansheng, so it's called Shengsheng!"

Unexpectedly, Lu Zhuqing's face suddenly changed: "Dan Sheng?"

"Do you remember?" Li Banxi always felt that they knew each other.

"I just remembered this name...this name," Lu Zhuqing recalled, "I helped it come up with it."

The door opened suddenly with a "squeak", only to see Dan Sheng slowly swimming out of the door, and didn't stop until Lu Zhuqing's feet.

One person and one snake, just staring at each other.

The setting sun coated Dan Sheng's scales with a layer of golden yellow, emitting brilliant light, like glazed tiles, which looked extremely warm.

"It's grown so big." Lu Zhuqing looked at Dan Sheng and smiled, patted it on the head, eyes filled with tenderness, "When I first saw you, you were smaller than that sparrow, and you were almost eaten."

For some reason, Li Banxi felt that his whole body exuded a sad breath.

"You belong to this world, and I shouldn't imprison you. Besides, I'm leaving too. It's a blessing to see you for the last time."

Li Banxi was also colored by the setting sun: "Do you have to go?"

Lu Zhuqing looked back at him: "I have nothing to worry about, and I am surrounded by gossip. Even if I am released from prison, it doesn't matter. If the people's wisdom is not enlightened, there will be no place for me to stand. It's fine to leave."

Li Banxi pursed his lips, and finally only said: "Bon voyage."

What he said is not unreasonable, the world is so big, just losing a family member in this native place and being questioned by the neighbors is really nothing to worry about.

Lu Zhuqing folded his palms together: "Both of you, take your leave, we will meet later."

The two returned the gift: "There will be a period later."

After seeing them off, Lu Zhuqing turned around after walking a few steps, waved at Dansheng, smiled again, and continued walking forward. After that, he didn't look back until he couldn't see his back clearly.

Li Banxi waved towards the path: "Take care."
