Moisture is silent

In the small Ping county, since the beginning of spring from the end of the year to the beginning of the new year, the few things that have caused a lot of noise are nothing more than the bloody case of Xiunu being tricked into offering sacrifices, the plague in Shitai Mansion and the scandal of Xu Jiadi stealing brothers and concubines.

Now that the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, the common people are so busy that they don't touch the ground, but the influence of Xu Sanshao's green hat has not passed.

Xu Jiagui is the biggest family in the local area, there are second-rank officials in the court, and there are shipyards and docks in the clan, so all the benefits have been taken.When the locals talk about the Xu family, no one is envious or in awe.

Everyone in the world has the mentality to join in the fun and watch jokes. Xu Sanshao's concubine, Mrs. Min, made a fuss in front of so many people. Everyone in the street knew that Xu Sanshao, who had been on a boat for many years and had no children for many years, was greened by his younger brother.

Not to mention the jokes of outsiders, even the elders of the Xu family were shocked and their faces were pale. The next day they opened the ancestral hall to deal with the concubine Min and severely punished Xu Sishao.

Xu Sanshao hasn't gone out since then, not even going out to pay New Year's greetings, nor open the door to welcome guests.As soon as he left home after the new year, he went directly to the elders of the family and proposed to divide the family. In the past, the Xu family only divided the big house, the second room and the third room. What Xu Sanshao wanted was to separate from his brothers. Xu Si Shao, the elders pay more attention to the third young master who has rich experience in sailing.On the contrary, he fairly agreed to split the family, and Xu Sanshao got his own share of property and unexpected compensation, such as a large ship that belonged to him alone.

After the family separation, Xu Sanshao took his wife and concubine and moved out of his hometown in the county without hesitation, and the family went to settle in Shazhou Prefecture.

Yun Runsheng and Huang Liang came to Xu Sanshao's new house under the leadership of Huzi. Yun Runsheng's eyes lit up as soon as he entered the house, and said, "This house is more unique than the original one."

Xu Sanshao hurried out to meet him, he looked a little thinner, but his face was full of vigor and radiance, "Sixth brother of Yun, Mr. Huang, hahaha, you are really radiant when you come to my house hand in hand."

"Brother Xu San, don't be polite, I'm here for something." Yun Runsheng said with a smile, men want to save face, especially when it comes to scandals like green hats.

Xu Sanshao was ashamed, "You really deserve to be the sixth brother Yun, you can tell what I'm thinking at a glance."

"Okay, there is no need to be polite between you and me." If at first it was because of gratitude to Xu Sanshao for his generous help to the Yun family, after some contact, Yun Runsheng had already regarded Xu Sanshao as a friend, even though some Concepts differ.

Third Young Master Xu took the two of them into the courtyard behind the house to sit idle, where a sumptuous tea and snacks had long been prepared under the gazebo.

Huang Liang casually tasted two pieces of dim sum, and said with a smile, "You two chat slowly, and I'll walk around."

"Mr. Huang doesn't need it. Mr. Huang sits down, just sit." Xu Sanshao couldn't laugh or cry, how dare he dismiss Mr. Huang, let alone the other party's identity is unknown, but Yun Runsheng should treat him equally "Anyway, my old face is gone. After throwing it all away, what is there to pay attention to now. Let’s be friends and gossip today.”

Xu Sanshao sighed quietly, "I, Xu Sancai, have been enlightened by this situation. Don't say that brother is a rich wolf. Since Jin Rong is gone, he doesn't even have a friend to talk to. I know, no matter what you The two will not laugh at me."

Huang Liang just ate in silence, and he didn't know Xu San well.

Yun Runsheng also had a look of disapproval, "It's better to break it when it's right than to know it after the fact."

"That's right." Xu San laughed. "I've had nightmares for a few days. I dreamed of raising that evil bastard. It's all resolved now."

"It's okay, you and Mrs. Sister-in-law are young, and the child will come when it's due." Yun Runsheng will not talk to death, after all, the husband and wife are fine, and there are cases where they still can't have children, and he is not Guanyin.

Xu San was excited, and his smile couldn't be concealed, "Ahem, to be honest, my wife has been pregnant for more than two months."

"Oh congratulations." Yun Runsheng was slightly surprised, and naturally he was happy for Xu Sanshao, "I was called today because I wanted to feel the pulse of my sister-in-law."

Xu Sanshao nodded, "I really can't hide anything from you. I moved to Fucheng after the Chinese New Year. My ears are quiet and my heart is relaxed. Whether it's my wife or the remaining two concubines, they are all living peacefully. Seriously. Don't worry. My wife was not feeling well a few days ago. The doctor looked at it and said it was a happy pulse. My wife and I are very happy, but my husband and I are not young, especially my wife is under a lot of pressure and suffers from insomnia every night. What to eat and what to throw up, I am thinner than before, which is really annoying. Now I don’t trust other doctors, I only trust you.”

Yun Runsheng smiled, "Let's go, I'll go and have a look."

"No, no, I'll let my wife come over later. She's still sleeping right now."

"Row."

Huang Liang propped his face and ate fruit boredly, but remembered something, "Xu Sanshao, it's almost May now, what month will your fleet travel this year?" Big brother Yun is a big promise, and he is wholeheartedly thinking about the promised three-year agreement.As a result, it conflicted with the matter of taking him to Fangshi.

Huang Liang is not afraid of anything else, except for things that might happen. He doesn't know anything about life and death. The ghost knows whether his biological mother is a fish or a snake, whether it is good or bad, dead or alive.

Compared with his mother, what he cares about is his own monster shape and cultivation aptitude.Only when the demon body becomes an adult, he will practice seriously from then on, so that he can go hand in hand with Brother Yun.He couldn't even imagine that if he could only be an ordinary person all the time, Brother Dang Yun would still look like he is now at a hundred years old, and he, either dead or full of ruts, couldn't bear it.

Xu Sanshao lifted his spirits when he heard the words, and said, "I was about to talk about this matter with Sixth Brother Yun. When I separated the family, I made an agreement with the clan, and I don't need to go to the Yi country route anymore. Hmph, there are always people watching No matter how hard you work, they only see that you come in quickly and the family is the same. They see that my family is rich, so they have no other thoughts. I proposed to separate the family and I don’t want to travel long distances to leave home all the year round, so the family asked me to pay The route out of the country of Yi. I agreed immediately. Besides, my wife is pregnant now. I originally planned to run a nearby boat to earn some flowers this year, but now I decided to take a year off. I have to be by my side to watch over my wife and children to be at ease. "

Yun Runsheng understood, Huang Liang couldn't help laughing and said, "Why should Xu Sanshao be like this, of course the wife and children are more important than making money."

"That's right, anyway, I'm not short of money. To be honest, it doesn't matter if I don't go out for the rest of my life. Of course, if I give birth to ten or eight children in the future, I still have to work hard to make money, hahaha" Xu Sanshao was proud of himself.

"Okay, when you go on a long trip, if you need it, I'll send someone to tell you, as long as I'm free, I'll go with you." Yun Runsheng smiled.

Xu Sanshao shook his head, "I've accepted your wish. From now on, I'll be able to run nearby, at most about ten days away, so I don't need to ask you to be overqualified. Hehe, if Sixth Brother Yun is willing, I would like to pay more Buy your amulet, health medicine and so on. The health and safety of the family is my biggest wish now."

The two chatted happily. At noon, Yun Runsheng took the pulse of Mrs. Xu to confirm that she and the child in her womb were healthy. After dinner, Yun Runsheng took Huang Liang and left.

Huzi walked with the two of them, and Yun Runsheng couldn't help asking this apprentice, "Xu Sanshao won't go on a boat in the future, how about you, master sending you to school?"

Huzi was sullen and shook his head, "I don't want to study, I'm stupid, I can't do it at all."

Yun Runsheng smiled, "Silly boy, if you don't learn how to know that you can't be a human being, you must not only have a sense of responsibility, courage, but also self-confidence and knowledge. Even if you don't have the talent for the imperial examination, it is better to read and write to increase your knowledge than to be blind for a lifetime Confused." He spoke in a serious manner, as if an elder was teaching a younger generation.

Huang Liang smacked his tongue secretly at the side, thinking, Brother Yun, your terrible handwriting is really not like someone who has read the book, okay, of course, he will not say it to make Brother Yun sad.

Huang Liang chimed in, "Think about what kind of person your master is. As his only apprentice, if you don't even know the words, wouldn't others laugh so hard that you can't embarrass your master? Do you know?"

Hu Zi, who was caught between the two, was pitiful, both disturbed and moved, and choked up, "I know, thank you, Master. I have heard that your apprentice must work hard and study hard, and will never lose Master's face." Wuwuwu Master is so kind , better than his own father.Everyone knows the truth, but the cost of studying is something people like him can't even imagine.

Yun Runsheng smiled, "Master Zhifu is very familiar with Master. Wait for me to say hello to him. After a while, you can go to the academy in Fucheng to enroll for enlightenment. I have a few nephews who will also go. Study hard. In the future, you will know Literally broken characters, you can do anything as a bookkeeper when you come out to do business."

"No, I must learn the cooking skills taught by Master"

"Anything is fine." This kid is really stubborn, let him have his dreams, and he will be the same when he grows up.

It was still early, and the streets of Fucheng were bustling.

Yun Runsheng saw that the eyes of Huang Liang beside him were full of light that I wanted to go shopping, so he smiled and wandered all over the street.

Accompanying Huang Liang to the study to buy some new books and new paints, it happened that the framed painting he sent was finished.

"Master Yun, look at the frame of my watch, there is something wrong." The shopkeeper carefully moved out a few frames of paintings.

Yun Runsheng checked them one by one and was very satisfied, "Well, that's right."

But Huang Liang, the owner of the painting, was surprised, "Why do you want such a frame?" He originally painted a long scroll, but Yun Runsheng asked the store to make a square log-colored frame, and the frame is extremely simple, without any carvings and details. Openwork texture.He thought it was very strange, but after a closer look, he felt that it matched the scene in the painting very well.

"No wonder you asked me to scribble like this. It's quite interesting. It's simple but ancient, messy but not dirty. If it hangs on the wall, it seems to be good." Huang Liang was uncertain, after all, it was the first time he had seen it. .

Yun Runsheng laughed, "Don't think about it, it's just a few decorative paintings. If you don't think it looks good, you can change it later. But I think it looks very good, and I like this kind of simple abstraction." According to his request, he completed black and white abstract paintings with a simple style, as well as rich color ink abstract paintings. A few paintings are full of abstract mastery, and they will definitely not be bad when hung.

Huang Liang coughed lightly, "As long as Brother Yun likes it." Really, he was afraid that Brother Yun would praise and praise if he used his face to paint pictures.

"Hahaha" Huang Liang couldn't stop laughing.

Yun Runsheng wondered, "What are you laughing at?"

Huang Liang laughed and said, "I think of a joke. In the previous dynasty, there was a master of painting named Zeng Shilin. He was very good at painting tigers, bears, lions and other wild animals. There was an endless stream of visitors. One day, a disciple surnamed Wang came to visit. He happened to see a new painting in the master’s study room. How about the painting, the disciple cleverly praised that the painting is at its peak, it is a fierce tiger. The master laughed and kicked the disciple out."

"..." The corners of Yun Runsheng's mouth twitched, "So that painting is actually a child's random graffiti."

"How do you know?" Huang Liang was surprised.

"Hmph, throughout the ages, similar stories have always been heard."

Huang Liang laughed, "It's actually a painting made by Master Zeng's grandson sitting on his buttocks, hahaha"

"..." Yun Runsheng raised his forehead, and even the shopkeeper next to him was holding back his laughter.

After Huang Liang had finally had enough of laughing, Yun Runsheng took the painting and dragged him out.

After walking outside, Yun Runsheng said, "Young Master Huang, I am looking forward to that day."

"What?" Huang Liang didn't react.

Yun Runsheng sneered, "I hope that Mr. Huang will sit on his buttocks to create some abstract paintings, and see if the Daoist will praise you, huh."

"..." Mr. Huang came to his senses, his face flushed all the way to the base of his neck.Covering his face, he kept bumping Yun Runsheng with his elbows, "The Taoist priest is too unscrupulous"

"Otherwise, don't you really think that if you paint with ink on your face, the Taoist priest will praise you foolishly?"

Huang Gongzi looked shocked, "You can read minds"

Yun Runsheng had an inscrutable expression on his face, "Be careful in the future."

The young man quickly covered his heart, I want my father to give me a marriage from Daoist Yun to be my son-in-law

"What the hell are you thinking about?"

"The Consort"

"..." Yun Runsheng closed his eyes, convinced.

The young man covered his mouth and let out a voice through his fingers, "I was thinking, the fourth sister seems to be married, and the son-in-law is Ning Shizi, and that Ning Shizi is the group of people who chased me in Mingzhou. I interrupted him at that time." Fortunately, he was not killed, otherwise Si Huangmei would have no concubine. However, in my opinion, Prince Ning is not worthy of Si Huangmei. He is famous for being picky and picky. And he once asked my father to marry me twice, which made me disgusted. I really don’t understand why the imperial concubine found this marriage for the fourth emperor. But think about it, the emperor is Princess, if the son-in-law is disobedient, just keep it as a decoration. So what if you raise hundreds of Prince Ning."

I just listen to your sophistry, and I am speechless.

Yun Runsheng was as quiet as a pine.

Huang Liang coughed lightly, and finally revealed his real purpose, "I want to prepare a gift for someone to send to the capital. First, to congratulate the imperial sister. Second, to repay the safety of the father." He now doesn't know what to do with his biological father. to think about.However, recalling the situation in the princess' mansion that day, the emperor defended him no matter what.

"Three, if we go to Fangshi and still find no trace, I'm afraid only father can tell me the truth."

Naturally, Yun Runsheng would not object to this proposal, "Then prepare. What gift do you need?"

"I've prepared all the presents. My relationship with Si Huangmei is okay, quarrels are quarrels, but she's not sinister, she's just a bit stupid."

Yun Runsheng nodded.

"How do you want to send it"

"Of course it's the Escort Bureau."

Yun Runsheng shook his head, "Use Black Hawk, it's fast and safe."

"That's better. But if he enters the palace, will Black Eagle be in danger?"

"Don't underestimate it, not to mention my talisman." Yun Runsheng said with a playful smile, "Black Eagle might be smarter than you."

"It's absolutely impossible." Huang Liang firmly refused to believe it.

"My black eagle is a genius, it can draw with its claws, master level."

"Shut up" the boy was so angry that he wanted to bite someone.

Yun Runsheng couldn't help laughing, "If you draw a picture with your butt, I will definitely hang it up and admire it every day."

The young man wandered around in place, looking down for a crack.

A few days later, Yun Runsheng happily moved to the newly built Zhuangzi with Huang Liang.

Before everything in Zhuangzi was properly arranged, Yun Runsheng pretended not to let Huang Liang go and see.

Today, the two arrived at the place.

Huang Liang couldn't wait to rush in. For the past few days, he was scratching his head and thinking about what the new house arranged by the Taoist priest would look like.

Once you step into the garden, it is spacious, elegant and nothing special.Entering the hall on the first floor, it is also antique and carefully crafted. The furniture and furnishings are all top-notch, but that's all.Huang Liang was puzzled, and quickly went up to the second floor, walked through the long corridor to the east room, and when he opened the door, he was stunned.

The room is carpeted at the entrance, and there is a light brown wooden cabinet against the wall. In the front hall, there is a pure blue sofa of moderate hardness against the wall. Two abstract paintings of logs are hung on the sofa wall. coffee table, rectangular log table, in front of the large floor-to-ceiling door is a whole wall of curtains that are easy to open and close, and outside is the balcony leading directly to the exit to the back mountain garden.There are only four rooms in the house, and the beds in the room are very simple, without a bed frame, which looks very soft.There are still two paintings hanging above the bed.The wardrobe against the wall goes all the way to the top, with removable doors.There is a study room, whether it is a bookcase, a desk, or an armchair, they are all pure white.There is also a strange kitchen and a strange clean room in the house.

Huang Liang was shocked. He had never seen such a house. At first glance, everything was simple, with a lot of space, and some things he couldn't even comprehend.But, somehow, I felt extremely comfortable and warm.He knew that Big Brother Yun was not the real Sixth Master Yun. Although Big Brother Yun didn't say anything, he was very curious about where the real Big Brother Yun came from, how was Big Brother Yun's parents, and where was Big Brother Yun's hometown?

This is the home in Brother Yun's heart.

Huang Liang stood in a daze in the living room. He sat on the comfortable sofa and looked at his paintings still hanging on the opposite wall. A large color ink painting seemed to be the only lively color in the room.

Yun Runsheng came in slowly, and waved at him, "Go to the next door to see your room."

The boy hurriedly got up and followed. The layout of the room next door was almost the same as that of Yun Runsheng.The difference is that all the decorative paintings are in color, and there is only one black and white one.The sofa is a lively Yao yellow, the curtains are white gauze, the dining table is a round table with tall legs and slender legs, and the chairs are also curved.In the bedroom, the bed is pink and the gauze curtain is pink

Only the study room is antique.

"This" the young man was dumbfounded, he didn't know what to say, but, this was all designed by Brother Yun himself, and arranged for him by himself, looking at those pink colors, it must be right

"Ahem, are you satisfied?"

Huang Liang's cheeks flushed, and he nodded silently. He likes it, but he wants to live next door, as long as there is one room and one bed.

Yun Runsheng took a deep breath, the layout of the house was exactly the same as his previous home, except for the absence of technological products and household appliances, he almost restored the rest.At that time, his parents lived in the same apartment, and his master lived next door. He and his master practiced outside for many years, and they would stay at home and watch TV when they came back occasionally in a year. It can be recalled, but it is difficult to reproduce.

until

"When you grow up, I will tell you where my hometown is."

He stroked the boy's hair.

The boy raised his head and smiled at him, "Don't break your promise."

"Never break your word."

It was night, in front of the open window, Yun Runsheng sat alone in the moonlight, with a serious expression and a calm face.

The invisible spiritual energy flowed continuously into this room, the meridians in Yun Runsheng's body flowed unimpeded, and the spiritual energy circulated in the dantian over and over again, tempered, and solidified into drops of liquid beads.As his cultivation continued to deepen and entered the later stage, the originally atomized spiritual power gradually changed into liquid beads.On the day when all the spiritual power was tempered into liquid beads and fused together, he had stepped into a higher level of spirituality.

Now that he has reached the seventh level of cultivation in the physical stage, there is a faint sign of breaking through to the eighth level.

Yun Runsheng took his time and was determined.

At chen time, the sun rises.

Realizing that the boy next door was still asleep, Yun Runsheng smiled slightly, entered the world of Lingzhu and climbed the stairs for two hours, and then concentrated on practicing Peiyuan Pill in the alchemy room, occasionally refining a furnace of beauty pills, the only way to accumulate If there are enough, the square market can be exchanged for more spirit stones.The marrow washing pill that he has been thinking about is still produced in twos and threes, and he just wants to keep it for himself for the time being.

Huang Liang woke up naturally after falling asleep, and it was already bright outside.

Rong Ying brought it in time to freshen up, and his face is still full of novelty, "My lord, the house built by Yun Daochang is really convenient, bright and comfortable."

"That's it, did Brother Yun come out?" Huang Liang used to ask, usually when Yun Runsheng's shadow was not visible, the other party was still practicing in all likelihood.

"Daozhang Yun has already gone down. I saw him watching the crops growing in the field just now in front of the big window."

"Oh, then I'll go and have a look."

"Sir, come back early for dinner"

"Ah."

Huang Liang ran downstairs quickly, and as soon as he got out of the room, he took a deep breath, which was refreshing.Looking far away, the morning glow is like a brocade, and the vast green fields are still shrouded in misty white mist. Scattered people are scattered everywhere, busy and busy, surrounded by colorful flowers, butterflies, and small birds singing happily on the leafy trees. , is really a paradise.

Huang Liang slowly wandered around, and finally found Yun Runsheng on the mountain behind the house.

This mountain has huge rocks and sparse vegetation. It looks ordinary, but at this time, the mountain peak is shrouded in clouds and mist, looming, which adds a bit of beauty.

"Brother Yun."

Yun Runsheng, who was standing by the boulder, turned his head and said, "Come here and see if this is a dry place."

Huang Liang took a blueprint, on which were symbols such as Yin-Yang and Five Elements, and the formation of Qian Kun.

"Look at the blueprint, this is here. Brother Yun wants to set up an formation."

Yun Runsheng nodded, "That's right. Originally, I just wanted to set up a spirit gathering array in the house where I lived, but after thinking about it, I felt it was a pity. I thought it would be more practical in the long run to arrange a large gathering spirit array connected to the back mountain."

"Then arrange it in a big way. I think it's better to include the back mountain when you put it that way."

Yun Runsheng smiled wryly, "But I'm only good at the small spirit-gathering formation, and it took me a long time to learn it from my master. The big spirit-gathering formation looks similar at first glance, but it's actually very different." He said embarrassingly, "Cough, my talent for formation is mediocre. "

Huang Liang laughed, "You are already very good. How about it?" He hesitated, "Why don't you teach me, I'll give it a try." After finishing speaking, he added, "I learn things very fast."

Yun Runsheng looked at the confident and a little nervous young man, and smiled slightly, "Why don't I teach you here."

"Teach me seriously," the young man was overjoyed.

"When did Brother Yun lie to you?"

"Brother Yun is a real gentleman"

"Okay, stop flattering, come and sit, and I'll tell you."

"Um"

The young man talks about studying, but once he puts himself into it, he forgets to sleep and eat, and he doesn't even notice that he is hungry.For the next three days, the boy kept talking about it wherever he went, and from time to time he took out a pen and paper to write and draw.Sometimes Yun Runsheng didn't even hear him greet him.

On the fourth day, it was still dark.

Yun Runsheng, who had been meditating all night, came out of the world of Lingzhu, opened his eyes and took a breath, his whole body was shaken suddenly, this spiritual energy

Yun Runsheng suddenly got up and jumped out of the window.

The spiritual consciousness opened his eyes, and the entire Zhuangzi and the back mountain that the naked eyes could see were completely covered by the white and rich spiritual energy, as if in the clouds.

"This is..." Yun Runsheng raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and went straight to the back mountain.

He quickly found the busy young man "Huang Liang" in the dry position.

"Brother Yun, you can see that. Hahaha, I succeeded." The boy was as happy as a little fox wagging his tail waiting for a compliment.

Yun Runsheng resisted the urge to hug the young man fiercely and twirled around, with a smile on his face, he did not hesitate to praise, "It's awesome that you deserve to be a genius who can learn everything. I'm far behind you."

The young man was happy and embarrassed, smiled and waved his hands, "I just scratch my head whenever I encounter a problem that I don't understand. After a few nights, it was finally completed. This spirit gathering array is really amazing, with monstrous spiritual power pouring in, Brother Yun's cultivation will definitely improve by leaps and bounds in the future."

"you, too."

"Yes, yes, I will get twice the result with half the effort if I practice here. Haha, I feel like flying into the sky now, the clouds are misty, and I am in the clouds."

"Little Immortal, Big Brother Yun will take you to dinner, and I will cook for you personally today."

"Okay, I want to eat sweet and sour pork ribs, sweet and sour fish, sweet and sour twice-cooked pork, sweet and sour chicken wings"

"Sweet and Sour Jar"
