Mu Ke ate snacks and talked about the fate between him and Du Liyu.

Many years ago, Muke was still a young sapling in the redwood forest.After absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon for many years, besides the tree growing taller gradually, his cultivation base also increased bit by bit.He likes the feeling of the sun shining on him most every day, allowing him to fully absorb nutrients.Also likes the rain to give him a bath.However, the mangrove forest is shrouded in clouds and fog all the year round, and his size is never as tall as the older redwood next to him. It can only absorb a small part of the nutrients when it is covered, which makes him a little malnourished.

At this moment, Du Liyu suddenly appeared in this deserted mangrove forest.At that time, Du Liyu was a poor child whose parents had both died since childhood.I grew up eating Baijiafan since I was a child.

When he was sensible, he worshiped the carpenter Wang at the entrance of the village as his teacher.Became an apprentice carpenter.

What happened was that he didn't know if he didn't understand, or what.Just can't learn.It made Master Wang very headache. Even if he was asked to draw a straight line, he could go to the opposite side of the road.Let him make the simplest little stool, and he can go up on one side and down on the other side.Made it look like a slide.

The master saw that he was really lacking in talent, and also saw that he was really pitiful, so he didn't drive him away.They also asked him to stay here to help him as a layman, clean up and cook a meal or something.

In fact, Du Liyu likes the wooden statues carved by the master very much, and also likes the furniture made by the master.Unfortunately, he just couldn't learn it himself.

If you want to say hard work, he is hard enough.Get up before dawn every day, and practice with some discarded wood.As far as he is careful, he is also careful enough. When he sees every piece of wood, he will think in his heart what they are suitable for.Then carefully study the master's techniques and every woodworking essentials.Even so, there are countless scraps of wood in his hands.

Once, the master who was too busy asked him to help stroke a wooden statue with a pen.As a result, this wood carving, which took three months to complete, was perfectly destroyed by Du Liyu's unsatisfactory hands, and he was injured himself in the end.

Later, Master Wang couldn't bear to hurt his heart, so he said to him tactfully.Let him stay as far away from this completed work as possible in the future.It's good for the wood, and it's good for himself.

Even though the master told him so, in fact, he still taught him everything he had learned all his life.Even though he is a stupid apprentice, he doesn't know any carpentry.

Ten years later.The once stupid kid has become a stupid boy.

Du Liyu was very guilty. He felt sorry for his master's kindness and cultivation for so many years.Although he still can't do any carpentry.Can't help the master reduce the burden.

The master has never blamed him for so many years.I just told him that maybe God didn't let him eat this bowl of rice.Just sigh and sigh.

Du Liyu kept his master's words in his heart, and he can be said to have memorized the theoretical knowledge.It can be ruined because of the actual operation.He looked at his hands and sighed again and again.

Although he would not succeed as a carpenter, others had his idea.

Du Liyu is handsome and tall in life.He is a very handsome young man.In the nearby villages, he was also known as a handsome young man.Some rich families in Shicun Badian only have daughters but no sons.So he came up with the idea of ​​wanting Du Liyu to marry into someone else's family as a son-in-law.Naturally, the matchmakers came to the door with the benefits.

We all know that Du Liyu listens to his master the most.So these matchmakers went to discuss with Master Wang.

At first, the master also asked his opinion, and Du Liyu said that he didn't want to get married so early.He said he wanted to accompany Master to take care of him for a hundred years.Seeing that Du Liyu's attitude was very tough, the master didn't persuade him any more.In fact, the master also wants him to have a good marriage.At least after he died, someone would take care of him so that he wouldn't have to worry about food and clothing.

one day.Another gaudy matchmaker with a flowery handkerchief came to their house with some benefits.

Du Liyu happened to come back and saw the matchmaker entering the house, and he didn't want to meet her.He went around to the back of the house.

The voices of the matchmaker and the master sounded in the room.

"Master Wang. As the saying goes, the master leads the door, and the cultivation depends on the individual. Look how many years it has been, and he still doesn't know anything. You just raised him for nothing. Don't you panic? Besides, look at your age I’m growing up. I’m still living in this simple thatched cottage, if you get him to agree to marry our young lady, he’ll say that he’ll give you a big house and a lot of gold! You’ll be able to enjoy happiness in the days to come!”

Master Wang held the cigarette pouch without changing his face, and took a puff on the stone, "Liyu can't do woodwork. But for so many years, he has taken good care of me, and I have long regarded him as my son. I don't want to sell him just because of this. Please go back and ask your lady to find another good son-in-law." Master Wang bowed his waist and stood up to see off the guest.

The matchmaker said angrily, "I don't know how to flatter you! Let's go!" Let the servant waiting outside lift up his things and left cursing.

Clenching his hands tightly into fists, Du Liyu really felt that he was a troublesome waste.The guilt in his heart made it even more difficult for him to face his master calmly.But at this moment, another uninvited person appeared at the door.

This person is Du Liyu's "big brother."

It turned out that Master Wang had accepted an apprentice before he became a teacher.This apprentice is very smart and learns everything very quickly.In less than five years, you can be on your own.But because he is unscrupulous, only for the immediate benefit.In the end, he and Nao De parted ways with Master Wang and set up his own company.He is famous outside of the wind and water.There are also many dignitaries who will specifically ask him to make wood carvings and furniture.

"How is the master recently? Can the new apprentice be taught?" The elder brother walked to Master Wang's side with a smile and arrogance.

"I can't compete with an apprentice like you." Master Wang turned his face away, holding a cigarette pouch, unwilling to look at him.

"Master, don't say that. The apprentice can achieve what he is today, thanks to the master. How can I forget the kindness."

"Hmph!" Master Wang snorted coldly.

When he set up his own school, he said everywhere that his master treated him so badly.Said that those wood carvings were all made by him, and the master took the credit from him.Master Wang saw all these things, but he still read the teacher and apprentice, and didn't make too many excuses.

"Master. Master Li's Qian Jingang is engaged. He wants me to make a Babu bed as a dowry, and requires the Babu bed to be different. To show the identity of their Li family, I remember this Babu bed master, you are the most Good at it. It’s not as good as our master-student cooperation, you can rest assured that the money will not lose you a penny.”

Master Wang smiled after hearing this.

The eldest brother thought that this was an agreement, and he was about to continue talking.

But Master Wang interrupted him, "People... It doesn't matter whether the craftsmanship is good or not, and it doesn't matter whether you have a lot of money. The important thing is to be worthy of your conscience. You can go." Master Wang issued the order to evict the guest again.

Eldest brother also left just like the matchmaker.

Du Liyu, who heard this outside the house, secretly made up his mind.This time, he must make a more exquisite Babu bed before the big brother.Fight for the master.

But this Babu bed is the most rare among the furniture, with his handicap, it can only be said that man will conquer heaven.

Du Liyu drove a carriage and went to the smoky mangrove forest alone, looking for suitable wood.

Why did he finally choose Muke?Is it just because I took one more look at you among the trees and never forgot your face...

The fact is that Du Liyu thinks that other mahogany trees are too tall for him to cut.That's why I chose Muke, a relatively short mahogany tree nearby.In this way, Du Liyu took Mu Ke to the mountain.I went to the small thatched cottage where the master used to live when he occasionally went hunting.There, after many years, he picked up tools such as axes, planes, saws, ink fountains, and Luban rulers again.Started my real first work.

Every day, in the name of chopping firewood up the mountain, he secretly came to make a Babu bed.It takes two years to do it.No matter the wind or rain, he will come regardless of the weather.He takes great care of this babu bed every day.He even put all his savings into this bed.Du Liyu, who is usually reticent, is no longer lonely now that he has Mu Ke's company.

One day he stayed up all night drawing patterns, and fell asleep on the Babu bed.It was in this dream that he heard Mu Ke's voice for the first time.

At that time, Muke had no name.After coming and going, the two chatted more and more, and developed into good friends.After being frightened, Du Liyu also accepted this inexplicable setting.

Just as the Babu bed was about to be completed, Du Liyu pulled the bed home.Wanting to give the master a surprise and an explanation, it can be regarded as so many years of learning in vain.

He named Ba Bu Bed Mu Ke.According to Mu Ke, after the entire bed was completed, Du Liyu carved the word Mu Ke on the bed.After the word is completed, he can appear in front of Du Liyu in human form.But if the writing is not completed, he will be sealed in the bed, unable to communicate with others, unable to speak or emerge from the bed.

The big brother who has not appeared for a long time, on the day when the delivery date is approaching.I feel more and more that the stepping bed I made is not pleasing to the eye.No matter how you look at it, it almost makes sense.

He had decided not to seek help from that dead-headed old man since the last quarrel broke up.But now...

Thinking about it, he suddenly remembered that Master Wang had an album of drawings he drew himself.There must be a unique style of Babu bed on it.It's better to steal it and modify the bed you made yourself.Thinking of this, the eldest brother drove the carriage to the entrance of the village non-stop.

Master Wang went to the next village to drink wedding wine this evening and came back later.Du Liyu finished the final process and was preparing to write the word Mu Ke.But he didn't notice that there were two thieving eyes staring at him outside the window.

The eldest brother saw the Babu bed in the house through the window, and immediately felt that the one at home was really shit.I didn't expect this stupid boy to be enlightened.He rolled his eyes, thinking that it was too late to modify it according to this appearance.It's better to just take this stepping bed to do business.

A total made up his mind.He cleared his throat and hurried into the room, "Junior brother! It's not good!"

Startled by the voice, Du Liyu stopped and looked at him.

"I met the master today, he drank too much, and fell unconscious on the way. Go and pick him up!"

Hearing this, Du Liyu was in a hurry without thinking too much, and whispered to Mu Ke, "Wait for me for a while."

He just ran out like this, and the senior brother followed behind.But when he reached the so-called halfway, he found that there was no one there.Just when he realized something was wrong, the elder brother behind him picked up a stone and threw it hard at the back of his head.

In this way, Du Liyu went offline gloriously.
