Sleeping Arhat

Chapter 55
On the third day, the sky was dark and gray, old man Li didn't lead his horse, he went out on tiptoe, and galloped on the road with lightness kung fu.

After running for more than ten miles, old man Li wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with his sleeves. When he looked back, he did not see Wu Xian, and whispered to himself: "Jiang is still hot, you still have a lot to learn .” Just as he was about to walk towards the town, a voice came over, which startled old man Li.

"Master Li, are you looking for me?" The words followed, and with two swishes, Wu Xian jumped down from the branch, and the figure suddenly appeared in front of old man Li.

The old man Li was horrified, he was startled: Has the kid already practiced lightness kung fu to such a level?The world is so big, in terms of lightness kung fu, no one can match it.Thinking of this, old man Li felt ashamed and angry at the same time. He was so old that he was actually teased by a child.

Old man Li picked up a wooden stick the size of an arm, swung it at Wu Xian, and shouted: "You bastard is playing with me, don't hide if you have the guts."

Wu Xian jumped up and down in the forest, like a monkey, begging for mercy: "Master Li, I was wrong, I am concerned about your life's important affairs, ouch, you hit my ass."

In the time of a cup of tea, old man Li was already panting slightly, and he was also fruitful. Wu Xian was hit five or six times in the buttocks. Seeing his aggrieved appearance, even though he knew that Wu Xian intended to give in, old man Li was relieved.

Dawn has risen from the eastern sky, and a ray of sunlight hits the road. Wu Xian said aggrievedly: "Master Li, then I will carry a small package on my back tomorrow and go wandering around the world, so as not to disturb your love and concubine love."

The old man Li smiled peacefully, and that smile was like the warmest candle under the warm sunshine. He patted Wu Xian on the shoulder affectionately, and said with concern: "As the saying goes, poor families get rich, this time go out To prevent future troubles, bring more money, and come back after a few more days."

Wu Xian originally planned to retreat, but he didn't know that Mr. Li was worthy of being a good man, so he blocked Wu Xian's retreat with a single word. Of course Wu Xian could play tricks and bully him, after all, he was his grandfather. It's boring to stay, so it's better to go to Dadu for a while. If you are lucky, you can see the appearance of Yitianjian, which is also a worthwhile trip.

Wu Xian turned and went home. Seeing Wu Xian's dejected look, old man Li smiled and comforted him: "It's not that your grandma is thin-skinned and is not ready to see you yet. Give me about a year, and I will be mentally prepared for her." .”

"Yeah." On the second morning, Wu Xian dressed up and set off. Old man Li bid farewell with tears. Wu Xian saw him covering his face with his palms and crying. It sounded like he was crying, but he was actually smiling.

Watching Wu Xian go away, the old man Li's eyes were haunted by the sadness of parting, and he felt a little melancholy in his heart. He thought to himself: At a young age like you, you should go out more and see the world, instead of staying with me, a bad old man, and spending time. years.It's time for me to go back to Xiaoxieyuan. These few days I've been with you, a brat, and I've been neglected, my pure lady.

Going all the way to the northeast, there are also many men going to the northeast. Although they have not reached Dadu, there is a faint smell of gunpowder in the wind and rain.On this road, there are already all kinds of monsters, ghosts, and heroes gathered, not to mention the capital at the center of the storm.

Along the way, there are three or five good players, walking in groups, there are also lone knights, straight swords and swords, and even saw the Kunlun faction crowd, rushing away to the capital. The leader of them is a couple, and many heroes know each other. They all yelled: "I didn't expect Mr. Tieqin, the head of the Kunlun School, to head, and his wife Ban Shuxian also went to Dadu. Wouldn't that prove the news is true?"

It turned out that everyone had only heard that the Yitian Sword was in Dadu, and that famous sects such as Emei, Kongtong, and the Beggar Gang had gathered in Dadu, but they had only heard about it and hadn't seen it with their own eyes. Wolves howled out one after another, ready to move.Afraid of missing this grand event, they all stepped up their feet and wanted to arrive first.

Wu Xian quietly hid his figure and walked along the small road with his lightness kung fu. Before arriving in Dadu, he could sometimes see two groups of people fighting for trivial matters on the road. Occasionally, he saw the dry red blood on the side of the road. Wu Xian Xian sighed in his heart, and became more cautious and restrained, rarely appearing in the crowd.

Wu Xian arrived in Taiyuan safely, and met two interesting people here, a short and fat cook, and a tall and strong cripple. Both of them were around 20 years old, and they only knew rough boxing skills, but they came all the way from Dongwu, Shaanxi. When the county came here, it was also because of the Yitian sword.

Wu Xian caught up with the two of them all the way. At night, the sky was not cold yet, and the starry sky was clear, it didn't look like it was going to rain.

The two started a fire in the wasteland. Although they saw Wu Xian who was dressed strangely and had short hair beside him, they were defenseless and didn't pay attention. Where did I hear the news, but now there is no Yitianjian, and the two of us are starving to death."

There was a trace of depression on Li Erheng's meaty face, and he couldn't help complaining: "It's not that you want to eat roast chicken in Luliang County, and you spent all our money."

The fat man wailed, "Why didn't you eat? It's all my fault."

Li Er was not convinced, and said aggressively: "It's not that you are greedy and insist on not leaving. Would I allow you to eat? If I had known this, I would not have brought you out."

The fat man was out of breath, and smiled obsequiously: "Second brother, I was wrong. Didn't I cook a lot of hard dishes for you along the way? At most, I will share half of my hard buns with you."

It doesn't help to worry about it now, Li Er took out two dry buns from the package, threw one to the fat man, and then the two broke them up and soaked them in the water, gobbling them up in a few mouthfuls.

The fat man touched his stomach, but it was still empty, and his face was full of hunger.

Wu Xian set up a fire five feet away from the two of them. At the same time, he put a piece of bread on a stone, and then put the stone beside the fire. When it spread, the tangy aroma of the cake aroused the appetite of several people.

Fatty and innocent, he didn't think too much, his appetite was aroused, he went straight to Wu Xian, and said straightforwardly: "Brother, can you treat me to a cake?"

"Fatty, come back quickly." It was Li Er who shouted urgently from the side, and immediately got up to pull the fat man back. The fat man looked unwilling, but he couldn't resist Li Er's firm attitude, and he turned his head nostalgicly every step of the way.

There was still enough food in Wu Xian's bag, and he also had a lot of money, so before the two of them walked away, he smiled and said, "If you don't mind, let's eat cakes together."

"Hey, Li Er, you heard me, big brother invited us to eat cakes."

Wu Xian has a dark face, what big brother, look at your full beard, do you have the nerve to call me big brother?

In the next few days, Wu Xian figured out why the two of them were in this muddy water.As the saying goes, "there are no more than three generations of poverty". When Li Er's generation happened to be the third generation, they were too poor to marry a wife. He is also a cripple, how can any girl be willing to marry him, and I heard someone say, "The supreme being in the world, relying on the sky and slaying dragons, commands the world, and no one dares not to obey." After a few formulas, I started a sweet dream.

And Fatty is the son of the chef in the inn, and his life is good. He and Li Er have been close friends since childhood. Under Li Er's instigation, the two stole the money from the family and set foot on the road to Dadu.

And these days, Wu Xian has also seen Fatty's craftsmanship, just give him a pot, a shovel and kitchen utensils, even some ordinary ingredients, a "cooking heart" Fatty can turn them into delicious delicacies .

Along the way, Wu Xian contributed money, Li Er, and the fat man contributed their strength. They walked together during the day, set up pots for cooking in the evening, and drank and had fun. Envious stomach.

There is a saying that "to grab a man's heart, you must first grab his stomach". Fortunately, the fat man is not a woman, otherwise Wu Xian would suspect that he was being staggered by a fat woman.
