Yan Xiao's Strange Records

"Young master, what's the matter?" Uncle Fu noticed that Zhou Shuo was depressed, and asked concerned.

He dressed up as a young master since he was a child, but his wife and master passed away one after another, leaving the young master alone.

That Zhou lady gave birth to a sharp mouth, exquisite in all aspects, but who knows that she is a powerful master, and the master passed away, so she rushed the young master to the backyard in a panic.

If it wasn't for the help of the young master from time to time, I still don't know what the situation of the young master is, thinking about it, I can't help but teardrops in my cloudy eyes...

"I'm just feeling sad, it doesn't matter, but why are you sad, Uncle Fu?"

Forbe rolled up his cuffs and wiped away his tears. "This old man also thinks about the past, how loving the old master and his wife were in the past, and the young master regarded her as the jewel in his palm. Now that the power has fallen, the young master is in the same situation as our servants. Why don't you make the old man sad?" Fu Bo said. Then another line of clear tears flowed out.

Zhou Shuo patted Uncle Fu on the shoulder. The old man has worked for the Zhou family for generations, and he is devoted to him.

"It's all over. Brother Yu loves me very much. Besides, my aunt put me in the backyard to train me. She has always had a knife and a bean curd heart. As long as I do things well, one day she will treat me like before. You Elderly people, don't worry about it!"

Zhou Shuo patted his chest, pointing out that he didn't know what to do, how could he not know the rift between himself and Mrs. Zhou that could never be healed.

Stepping into the room, the furnishings are still the same, full of warmth, and a strong incense blows over the face, making Zhou Shuo's brain swell.In the past, some seasonal flowers were placed here, which are elegant and pleasant. My mother is very vegetarian and never burns incense.

He tugged at his robe, a little at a loss, he had hardly talked to his aunt in the past few years, and he was at a loss for words.

"Coming?" Mrs. Zhou posed with lotus steps.Surrounded by a group of maids, she was dressed gorgeously and looked very luxurious, but her eyebrows were a little haggard.

Zhou Shuo lowered his eyes and bowed his head with a look of humility. "Yes, I don't know why my aunt called me here?"

After a while, Mrs. Zhou leaned against the table, looking tired, and the servant girl behind her gently thumped and squeezed slowly to soothe her.

"I've been a little tired recently, and I often can't sleep at night. I know that a fairy grass is very curative, but the fairy grass is located in a remote place, and most of the herbalists are mortals with naked eyes, so they don't know the fairy grass. Therefore, my illness cannot be cured for a long time. I can't ask for it, I'm afraid I'm going to be very ill." Mrs. Zhou shook her head and sighed, looking weak.

When Zhou Shuo heard this, he was overjoyed, Mo's heaven had eyes and gave him and his aunt a chance to reunite.

If he finds the celestial grass and cures my aunt's illness, she will regard him as a filial son and gradually ease the relationship between the two of them.

"Don't worry, aunt. I have been familiar with medicine since I was a child. There is no herb in the world that I don't know. I just ask aunt to tell me which mountain it is so that I can go rock climbing and get it for aunt." Zhou Shuo said without hesitation.

Lady Zhou was so angry that she nodded slightly under the support of a group of maids. "Shuo'er, don't you ever get angry when aunt treats you like this? You still worry about me like this, aunt is really ashamed..." Mrs. Zhou showed weakness and intended to reconcile.

"I just want to serve my aunt like my own mother. I hope that after this incident, I can reconcile with my aunt and be like a family. Xiao Shuo has nothing else to ask for." Zhou Shuo murmured, and then bowed. Get up and leave.

Seeing Zhou Shuo walking out of the front hall without a trace, Mrs. Zhou gave up and ordered a group of maidservants to retreat.Rubbing the center of his eyebrows, why did he feel a little unbearable.

"Ma'am, the young master is like this, shall we continue with the previous plan? I thought he would shirk it, but I didn't expect that instead of shirking it, I would embrace it on myself. This kind of filial piety, even the young master..." The servant girl road.

With a thud, a blue and white porcelain cup fell to the ground.

With a stern look on her face, Mrs. Zhou shouted angrily. "You talkative thing, when it's your turn to beak, that bastard doesn't care much. But when I think of his foxy appearance, confusing my son, I wish I could drink his blood and eat his flesh. Things are proceeding according to the original plan, please don't let the wind leak and leave any clues."

"Yes" the servant girl obediently left the hall.Miss Zhou looked at Zhou Fu's spiritual seat, and raised the corners of her mouth, if you betray me, I will make your descendants die.

When Zhou Shuo returned to his residence, he saw that Zhou Jue hadn't returned yet. There were a few brand new "The Analects" and "Book of Changes" on the bed. His tender hands were rubbing them, as if there was still warmth left by the master.He knew that brother Xuan must have let him go.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help feeling warm in his heart, and set off for Huayin Mountain with dry food and water.

Maybe he came back from collecting medicines and cured the aunt's illness, and the two of them reunited, and he and brother Xuan could also become in-laws under the witness of the aunt.

Thinking of this, Zhou Shuo's steps became lighter, and he arrived at Huayin Mountain without knowing it.

The terrain of Huayin Mountain is treacherous, and it is extremely difficult to climb rocks.Zhou Shuo walked halfway up the mountain, and his body was already scratched by grass stalks in many places.He just bandaged it hastily, but he didn't slow down.

There are many dense forests on the mountain, and Zhou Shuo seems to have lost his way before he knew it. He bypassed Bitao River, passed through bamboo fences and flower barriers, and saw the surrounding powder walls and green willows hanging around.There is a bamboo house hidden, and a man in white robe stands in front of the bamboo house and looks at him with a smile.

Zhou Shuo was a little thirsty, so he went forward to beg for some water, and couldn't help but quicken his pace towards the bamboo hut.

The man's smile became stronger, and Zhou Shuo could also see the man's appearance clearly. Under the sun's rays, the man was surprisingly handsome, with his body leaning forward slightly, his eyes burning, and he seemed to have a thousand words.

The tear moles at the corners of the eyes added a bit of aura, even as a man himself, there was an inexplicable impulse toward him, "Master, do you come here to rest?" The man in white asked first.

Zhou Shuo opened his thirsty lips, "Excuse me, Huayin Mountain is really not easy. I was exhausted halfway through the journey, but there was thick fog, and now I lost my way.

The young man in white nodded and led him into the room. The room was simple and furnished.A scent of bamboo and wood tangled the nostrils and immediately refreshed the mind.

"Please, my lord!" The young man in white held up a delicate wine jug to invite him to drink together. Zhou Shuo was not restrained, and drank freely with his head raised.

Spirits enter the throat, clear and sweet.

Zhou Shuo beamed and said, "It's really good wine. I didn't expect to meet such an elegant person like the young master in such a barren mountain. And this fine wine, does the young master live in seclusion here?"

The corner of the white-clothed young man's mouth slightly raised, his eyes were burning, and he looked out the window. "I am the guardian of the tomb. That person is buried here, and I will guard him for the rest of his life."

Zhou Shuo followed his gaze and saw a tomb as expected, so he didn't ask much. "Young Master is a loyal and righteous person, and it makes people look at him like this as a friend."

"Master Zhou, why did you come to Huayin Mountain? You know that Huayin Mountain has a steep terrain, and it coincides with the rainy season. The mountain road is slippery, wet and muddy. Bandits are often haunted, and they are extremely dangerous." The young man in white asked worriedly.

"My mother suffers from a serious old disease, which cannot be cured for a long time. The recent autumn rains have caused the recurrence of the old disease. The pain is unbearable. Only a celestial herb was used as a medicinal material, so I ventured to climb the mountain." Zhou Shuo put down his wine glass and explained the whole story.

The young man in white paused for a moment, then smiled again. "Young Master Yuan Zhou is a filial son, which is really admirable." Then he said: "I know every place in this mountain like the back of my hand. Go to the southeast. There are exotic flowers and plants growing there, and there must be what you need." Said Then he picked up a coir raincoat and handed it to Zhou Shuo.

Zhou Shuo was very grateful, seeing that it was getting late, he had no choice but to bid farewell to the young man in white, and left the bamboo house step by step.The previous dense fog also gradually dissipated, and the path gradually became clear.

He turned around and looked, only to find that the bamboo house behind him had disappeared, leaving only a crooked elm tree with a few curly yellow leaves falling down.

The coir raincoat on her body is still the same, especially the smell of wine on her lips.Zhou Shuo didn't realize that there was a chill running down his spine. Could it be that the young man in white in the wilderness is...

He didn't dare to think about it any longer, so he quickened his pace and headed towards the deep mountain. No matter whether he was a goblin or a ghost, the handsome man in white clothes didn't want to hurt himself, he must be a good person.

According to the instructions of the young man in white, as expected, he quickly found the place where the medicinal materials were all over the place.

Zhou Shuo was overjoyed, he looked down for the fairy grass, thinking in his heart, he would bring more medicinal materials back and distribute them to the villagers.

At this time, Zhou Shuo suddenly saw a tender purple stem swaying in the wind, with raindrops hanging on the leaves, crystal clear.

"I found it, that's great, my aunt is saved!" Zhou Shuo was ecstatic, bending over to touch the grass stalk.Suddenly, I felt a kick in the abdomen, and my whole body uncontrollably hit the stubborn rock behind me.

"Who are you? Why did you hurt me!" Zhou Shuo looked at the black and strong man in front of him and asked suspiciously.If the bandit didn't have much money on him, he wouldn't be able to do anything to him.

He only heard the man's tone serious: "I'm here to take your life, young master Zhou, today is the time for your death!" The strong black man didn't say much, he swung his big knife and slashed at Zhou Shuo.

Zhou Shuo dodged several times, and dropped the medicine basket on his body. He seldom had enemies with others, so why did this strong man kill himself when he opened his mouth, as if he was determined to win.

"Hero, you have something to say, why did you take my life indiscriminately? I will die before I die, and I hope the hero will give instructions."

Zhou Shuo tried to persuade the big man, but noticed that one step ahead of him would lead to an abyss, it was really wronged to death.

There is a mud wall behind the strong man, it is the rainy season, the mud wall must be soft, if you push it down, it may be your only hope to defeat the big man.

The big man didn't notice Zhou Shuo's intentions, and he approached the mud wall unconsciously. "In our business, we use people's money to eliminate disasters for others. If you want to blame it, blame your stepmother for being cruel. You are an adult, and she fears that you will seize power. Only by killing you can we avoid future troubles." Dahan said with a strong voice. murderer.

When Zhou Shuo heard this, he was immediately disheartened.In fact, after thinking about it carefully, there are many doubts. Mrs. Zhou has accumulated grievances against herself for a long time, and how can she resolve them in a few words.

She has always been in good health, and she never suffers from minor illnesses on weekdays, so how could she have serious illnesses and old illnesses, it should be her fault.Sickness is false, but it is true to lure oneself to come forward and then pay for murder.

Thinking of this makes my body cold.

"Young Master Zhou, go on the road. In your next life, you will be reborn in a good family. Don't meet evil people..." The big man muttered, raising his sword...

Zhou Shuo didn't want to please the poisonous woman, so he walked around behind the big man and climbed up the mud wall, the big man sneered.

It's just fighting trapped beasts, and it's already in my pocket.With a swish of his sword, he chopped down the mud wall, trying to collapse the mud wall, forcing Zhou Shuo to be captured without a fight.

The mud wall immediately swayed around, Zhou Shuo's feet slipped and he fell down.When the big man saw this, his eyebrows danced with joy. Young Master Zhou must be the soul of his sword.Then I can go home and count the money, and get a pretty woman.

Just as he was proud, the mountain body behind the mud wall gradually rolled down, and a huge piece ran towards the big man.

The smile on the big man's face froze, Zhou Shuo only heard a shrill scream, and the menacing big man lay dead at the foot of the mountain, and behind him, rolling rocks and falling stones were deafening...

Speaking of this, Zhou Shuo's face turned pale, and the mention of the old things made him heartbroken, and he could not forget Zhou Jue's infatuated waiting for him when he was young.

Xiao Qi handed him a cup of hot tea just now, and after drinking it, there was blood on the top of his lips, and his face gradually turned rosy.

"I'm a fate, and the mudslide will not kill me. It just so happens that my second and third younger brothers passed by here and saved me who was dying. I have been recuperating for more than half a year before I fully recovered.

She seemed to be disheartened, there were gossips in the village, and the aunt was cruel and merciless, planning how to plot against me every day.

Brother Jue has also reached the right age for marriage, and I don't want to delay him any longer.He simply lived in the mountains with his younger brothers, and when he came to them to do some good deeds, he became a lot more happy than he was at home in the past! "

Xiaoqi admired him very much, Zhou Shuo's description of all the sufferings was calm and clear, but he was a kind person to him.

He just never forgets, always remembers.Xiaoqi patted him on the shoulder and comforted him, "Don't worry, your boy has a big life and a generous heart, which is not owned by ordinary people, and you will surely come to the end of all hardships!"

"Thanks to the kind words from Miss Seventh, I have nothing else to ask for now, but I wish to reunite with Brother Jue and let him let your friend go. Then I will go back to the mountains and live with my younger brothers." Zhou Shuo sighed road.

"How can a man say such despondent words, you have high ambitions since you were young, and you have lofty ambitions, how can you continue to be buried like this for grassroots bandits.

After I rescue my master, I will write a letter to recommend you and the Youzhou government office.If you can't let go of your younger brothers, you can also take them with you. I think they have some force, which is not difficult compared to finding an errand. "

Xiao Qi has always been righteous, knowing Zhou Shuo's situation, he would not let it go, and immediately thought of a way out for him.

Come to think of it, Su Heng and his wife would support her actions here.It's just that one of them was held hostage by a ghost, and the other was seriously injured... Looking at Su Heng who was lying on the bed, he found beads of sweat all over his forehead...

"Hurry up, bring a hot towel, Su Heng's condition seems to be getting worse." Xiaoqi knelt in front of the bed, reached out to touch the temperature between his forehead, and it turned out that his temperature was extremely high, which was different from ordinary people.

"Okay, I'll go right away, and Li Jing, he must have a countermeasure, so I'll call him right now." Zhou Shuo hurriedly picked up the wooden basin and rushed out the door.
