Sleeping Arhat

Chapter 54

There is always a banquet in the world, and at dawn the next day, the three parted ways on Ganliang Avenue.

Tie Kuang rode on a flaming red horse, clasped his fists and said, "It's a farewell now, it may be hard to see you again. Take care of yourself." Wu Xian and Liu Tutou also clasped their fists in return, and then Tie Kuang laughed and drove away on the horse Juechen.

Wu Xian and Wu Xian also rode horses separately, running far on the ancient road, their speed was not as fast as Tie Kuang's. Although the big horse under Tie Kuang was not a thousand-mile horse, it was also tall and strong. People can compare with ordinary horses.

After traveling for about 20 days, around mid-September, Wu Xian arrived in Huangzhou, and Liu Tutou still had seven or eight days to travel southeast to Xingyang County. Wu Xian originally wanted to entertain a group of people in Huangzhou. Suddenly, Liu Tutou was homesick and was willing to return early. Wu Xian bought dry food and wine in Huangzhou and gave it to Liu Tutou as a gift. Liu Tutou did not refuse and accepted it happily.

After buying supplements such as ginseng and deer antler in the 100-year-old pharmacy in Huangzhou, Wu Xian returned home non-stop, feeling ups and downs all the way, full of thoughts, not knowing how Master Li is doing.

Every day when the sun was born, old man Li would practice Tai Chi two or three times, so that his body's yin and yang are in harmony, and the five elements circulate, and his body is not inferior to that of middle age.

Wu Xian also passed on the Nine Suns Manual to Master Li. Currently, he only passed on one or two volumes of scriptures. Because Master Li has limited qualifications, it may take seven or eight years to practice these two volumes of scriptures, let alone the next three years. The four volumes test the fundamentals of aptitude even more. Seeing that Mr. Li's body is getting stronger and stronger, Wu Xian's heart is getting more stable. He is only about 50 years old. In ancient times, he was in his twilight years. The medical conditions of ancient people were poor, wars were frequent, and food was not enough , the harsh living environment, so the average life expectancy is often not long, but according to modern times, the age of 50 is still at the peak of middle age.

A few days later, Wu Xian remembered that his hair was usually dirty and sour. He felt that long hair was not easy to manage, and he ignored too many red tapes, so he cut his ear-length hair short.

And because it is not convenient to carry things, such as secret books, bank notes, brushes, clothes and other things are not easy to pack, so I customized a backpack, just like a modern school bag.It is sewn with high-quality rammed and strong cowhide cloth. The outside is blue and black, which looks stable and practical. There are three large and small interlayers inside, and a black iron buckle is sewn on the upper end to close the backpack.

Moreover, Wu Xian is over seventeen years old, and he will be crowned in one year. His body is tall and slender, and his appearance is also considered handsome. The most eye-catching thing is his free and unrestrained temperament. It needs careful consideration, and his eyes are shining. Ling, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, feels like a spring breeze. He is like a bird in the summer sky, wandering freely, unrestrained and unrestrained.

Back home, old man Li was amazed when he saw him. Old man Li didn't care about Wu Xian's affairs, so he walked around Wu Xian twice, and said, "I saw you cut your hair, and thought you were enlightened." , I want to be a monk, why did you make such a strange bag again, is something wrong with you?"

Wu Xian rolled his eyes speechlessly, and finally explained helplessly: "I cut my hair because long hair is not easy to take care of. It is greasy, dirty and sour after a long time without tidying up. I simply cut my hair short. This backpack is very convenient. , is much more handsome than any suitcase, bag, or package."

Old man Li clicked his tongue twice, then turned around and rode Qingluo into the town. Wu Xian saw that it was already noon, but old man Li was running into the city, so he yelled: "Master Li, it's time to eat, you Why are you running to the city?" Wu Xian wondered, why does old man Li like to go to the city these few days?

Old man Li muttered and didn't say much, he was a little embarrassed, Wu Xian asked again and again, old man Li was getting annoyed, his face changed, and he said angrily: "You bastard eat it by yourself, and remember, I may Come back later, don't worry."

With the corners of Wu Xian's eyes bent, he saw that old man Li had already walked three or four zhang away on his green Luo, and with a funny smile on his lips, he called out loudly: "Master Li, are you looking for your mother-in-law?"

Old man Li chased his mules away, and Wu Xian saw that he was mysterious, so he said it casually, but he hit the point.

At this time, the sky was high and the sun was shining. Fortunately, there was a forest around, so the thatched cottage was not too hot. Wu Xian forced himself to raise the smoke, and ate a hasty meal. He couldn't help being curious in his mind, thinking: Master Li is 50 years old. At a young age, widowed and lonely, if he can really find a good match, the two of them usually take care of each other, which will make Wu Xian feel at ease.

After the meal, Wu Xian had nothing to do, so he picked up a bucket and picked water from a nearby stream, filled the two large tanks in the yard, went back and forth several times, and watered the vegetables in the vegetable garden. Wu Xian walked briskly , It only took about half an hour to finish.

Wu Xian slept under the shade of a tree, his body swayed slightly with the chair, the breeze blew, the cool wind hit his face, and the lush leaves rustled, Wu Xian complained: "Old man Li, you are too serious about sex, I finally came back desperately, but you left me alone and went to have fun by yourself."

At night, old man Li came back with a smile on his face. Wu Xian came out of the dimly lit room and picked up a lantern to meet him. He saw old man Li holding an ancient green gauze lamp with a faint fragrance of flowers on his body, with affection in his eyes, and a smile like a spring breeze. , One can tell at a glance that it is Chun Meng Le Wuhen.

Wu Xian jokingly said: "Master Li, which girl is it? I am blessed to be your mother-in-law and my grandparents."

Old man Li's face darkened, and he said with disgust: "Bah, bah, why do you ask so many questions, you have such a leisurely mood, why don't you go outside and work hard to make a fortune, and I will be clean."

Wu Xian was speechless, feeling a great gap in his heart. He thought that old man Li would entertain him with good wine and meat. The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they had a deep relationship. Which one is so disregarding the family for three days? Alas, it hurts to talk too much .

Wu Xian ruled out distracting thoughts, tried his best to speak calmly, and said, "Why don't you take some time to meet each other, what do you think? How long will it take for the two of you to get married?"

Old man Li wanted to evade, but Wu Xian said seriously: "Old man Li, if you don't tell me carefully, I will follow you all the time, and I don't believe I can't find grandma."

Old man Li's face changed, and he said with a sneer: "Good grandson, don't I think the time is not ripe, the future is long, the future is long." He sneaked back to the room again, turned off the lights and went to sleep.

But Wu Xian didn't give him a chance. For two days in a row, old man Li wanted to go to the town. Wu Xian performed his lightness kung fu and followed him three feet away without hiding his body. He just followed behind blatantly. Xian Qinggong was superb, and he couldn't get rid of him, so he gave up and went to the city, and Wu Xian stared blankly in the room, and said angrily: "If you have nothing to do, go to the rivers and lakes, don't stay in Huangzhou city for a day, I am the one in Huangzhou. State pension, not your pension.”

Wu Xian is not afraid of boiling water, so he said with a cheeky smile: "This life is very pleasant. Every day, I would bask in the sun leisurely, lie on the branches, blow the wind and sing songs, and then go to the city to find a Daughter-in-law, it’s even more beautiful to think about sleeping with a soft and soft woman every night.”
