Talk about the world of mortals in detail

Chapter 427 Passing the torch from generation to generation

Du Xiaolin held the lotus in her hand and looked at the boat going away, and couldn't help but frown.

Before going down the mountain, although Du Xiaolin was a cultivator of immortality, she had gone to the Taiyin Palace as a child and had been learning Taoism in the mountain, unaware of the complexity of the human world.

After going down the mountain, especially the memory of the old life came back to life. Although I couldn't relate to many things with the figure in my memory, my experience was not just that of a simple little girl.

People's hearts are complicated, and there is so much helplessness in the world. Of course the man who rowed away was hateful, but he was already in disaster.

Thinking like this, Du Xiaolin lowered her head and looked at the thing in her hand, and pointed at this flower, I will let you go.

"Hello--"

Du Xiaolin shouted to the boat that was already more than ten feet away from the dock, causing the man on the boat to look back at the dock.

I saw the little girl raising the flower buds in her hands and shouting in this direction with a clear and melodious voice.

"Thank you for the flowers--"

The man smiled and felt inexplicably better. Compared to the He family repeatedly praising him as a noble person, the little girl's thank you was more sincere and pleasant, and even the haze in his heart was relieved.

He bowed his hands in the direction of the pier, which made Du Xiaolin a little confused, but she also shouted again.

"Don't really want to die to pick the lotus -"

Even though she was far away, Du Xiaolin still saw the smiling man's face stiffen for a moment. She said nothing, smiled, turned around and left with the flower bud in her hand.

The man on the boat frowned. Did the little girl guess it by herself?

Yes, she saw the He family bringing me here, and she saw me holding lotus flowers, so she naturally imagined that I wanted to pick the remaining flowers. She is such a smart child!

But why does this child think that picking hexagrams is tantamount to seeking death?

The man thought about it, thinking about children's speculations, other possibilities, and finally thinking about the little boy and the little girl themselves.

In this small Luoxian County, I met two children like this in one day. It is really gratifying and also a pity. It would be better if the time and place were changed, but it is a pity that the two roads that can be seen now seem They are all dead ends.

"hahahahhahahahaha"

The man laughed nervously. Thinking back to himself a day ago and to himself today, the situation in life is really unpredictable.

Then the man turned the bow of the boat, raised the sail, and with the help of the wind and his own swaying at the stern, he rowed against the current in the river toward Yuezhou.

Maybe the boat would pass by the place where the lotus was actually harvested, but the man obviously didn't have the time to really look for it. His trip to the boat could be considered a runaway.

Theoretically, the man should go to Wuzhou immediately to confirm the situation, but he went against his instincts and went against the plan. Taking advantage of the inspiration brought by buying flowers, he rowed alone to Yuezhou. It would be good to create more surprises for others.

——

At this moment, in Wuzhou City further downstream of the E River, a slightly thin man was walking on the street.

Wuzhou's city is no less lively than other big cities.

Nowadays, the administration of officials in the state is much clearer than before, which makes the entire state city more energetic. The impact of the salt case back then was not only in the officialdom, but also affected thousands of households. Even in remote areas of Dayong, at least the price of salt was affected. Influenced.

The man looked at the flow of people on the street and some familiar or unfamiliar sights, his eyes full of emotion.

"Wuzhou, after so many years, I'm back again. Cough cough cough. Cough cough."

While muttering, the man began to feel chest and lung discomfort again, so he lightly covered his mouth and nose and coughed a few times, then walked to a restaurant where business was booming.

When the waiter at the door saw that the visitor was well-dressed, he immediately ran over diligently.

"Hey, how many guests are you?"

"Ahem. It's just me. Can I have a seat?"

"The private room is gone, but the private seats are still there. Please come in quickly! The shopkeeper, I have a distinguished guest~~~"

A smile appeared on the man's face and he looked at the restaurant's sign. It said "Ruguilou", which really means you feel at home!

The business in the restaurant was booming. Under the attentive hospitality of the waiter, the man sat down by the window on the second floor. After casually ordering a few signature dishes, he drank tea alone at the table.

And this person is Pei Changtian, who has not been back to Wuzhou for many years. As the one who is now helping Chu Hang, although he has expectations for his hometown, his return will not be without reason.

The moment he entered the restaurant, Pei Changtian had carefully observed every person in the restaurant from the shopkeeper to the waiters. He also made some guesses about who might have problems. Of course, the premise was that the location was correct, and the next step was to wait. Come on, let’s see what big fish there are!

On another street in Wuzhou, several people were walking with their horses. The direction they were heading was Wuzhou Yamen.

These people came all the way from Chengtian Mansion. They didn't waste any time on the way, and when they arrived on the streets of Wuzhou City, they finally didn't have to worry.

While walking, the leader suddenly spotted a slightly familiar figure at a noodle stall in the distance. Before the person got close, he shouted from a distance.

"Tamazuki?"

At a noodle stall on the street, Xiao Yu occupies a table alone. There is a stack of bowls on the table, and the noodles in the big bowl in his hand have been refilled many times.

Xiao Yuzhi was eating heartily when he suddenly heard someone calling him. He puffed his mouth and bit his noodles and looked up. When he saw the figure in the distance, although he was not wearing the clothes of an official, although he looked a little strange, The voice is very recognizable.

"Uncle Yang!"

Xiao Yuzhi sucked all the noodles into his mouth and swallowed them all in one gulp without even chewing them. He stood up and was about to walk towards Yang Pingzhong in the distance. The noodle stall owner hurriedly stopped him when he saw this.

"Hey, hey, I want to leave, but I haven't given you the money yet!"

"Oh, oh, please forgive me, store, how much does it cost?"

"You have such a big appetite. If you leave directly, I won't have anywhere to cry. There are six bowls stacked and refilled three times. You have eaten nine bowls of plain noodles in total. I will give you forty-five cents!"

"well!"

Xiao Yuzhi reached into his arms and groped for a while, and finally counted out the corresponding copper coins. At this time, some Yang Pingzhong and others who were holding the horse had arrived nearby, which also made Xiao Yuzhi excited.

"Uncle Yang, it's really you!"

Yang Pingzhong looked at Xiao Yuzhi, who was now in good health, with surprise on his face.

"I didn't expect to meet you here. I was planning to go to Yuanjiang County when I had time later. I already know about the old coach, but alas, I couldn't rush back to see him off."

Xiao Yuzhi is also free and easy.

"Master used to say that everything in the world is difficult to achieve perfection. Uncle Yang, you are far away."

Speaking of this, Yang Pingzhong winked, and Xiao Yuzhi immediately changed his mind.

"It's normal to be in a distant place and not be able to come back in time. Besides, Master passed away peacefully. There were many people watching him die, even Mr. Yi was by his side!"

"Mr. Yi has gone back too? That's good, that's good. Well, how do you eat this?"

"Uh, this is delicious."

Money is not everything, but nothing is impossible without money. The old teacher had nothing to offer, and most of the money he had left was used for his posthumous affairs. Moreover, he had anticipated this situation before he died, and it was considered as a way for his apprentice to enter the world for the first time. A lesson left.

Yang Pingzhong saw Xiao Yuzhi's embarrassment and said with a smile.

"Come on, I'll bring you something good to eat later. Can your stomach still hold it?"

"Ha, I'm not very good at it, but I'm only half full!"

The stall owner on one side secretly laughed after hearing this, this big-bellied man can really eat it!

Several people walked together, and Yang Pingzhong also introduced Xiao Yuzhi to his colleagues.

"Everyone, this is the disciple of an elder in my place of origin, Yuzhi. I won't introduce them in detail."

Xiao Yuzhi just smiled, but he knew in his heart that these people must have come here because of a big case. They came all the way from Chengtian Mansion Yamen, and the matter was not small!

"Uncle Yang, how can I help?"

Xiao Yuzhi couldn't help but feel excited. Yang Pingzhong looked at the former as he walked. The thin child in his memory gradually overlapped with the strong young man in front of him.

"I heard from the old instructor in a letter that your kung fu is very good and you can stand alone? How brave are you?"

Xiao Yuzhi hasn't had any contact with anyone since he left home. Hearing this, he felt happy and somewhat guilty, scratching his head.

"My martial arts may not be very strong, but my courage is definitely not bad!"

"What a good boy. He's quite humble. It's a good attitude to have when you first enter the world. How about it? Have you ever thought about joining the public servants?"

To be honest, Yang Pingzhong's words really moved Xiao Yuzhi's heart. He knew that the master was once more than a county government instructor. The token had a lot of background at first glance, but the master never mentioned it.

But not mentioning it didn't hinder Xiao Yuzhi's imagination, but he didn't want to just settle down and be a messenger.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to stay in a government office all day long."

Yang Pingzhong didn't say anything more. After all, he was on the street. He just smiled and hooked his hand on Xiao Yuzhi's shoulder and led him forward. Halfway there, he suddenly felt a strong force and bumped sideways to test Xiao Yuzhi's control of his center of gravity.

What Yang Pingzhong didn't expect was that Xiao Yuzhi's 50% strength test seemed to have no feeling at all, and there was nothing strange about the other party's walking.

If the two of them were standing still just now, Xiao Yuzhi must not be moving at all either.

"Hey, Uncle Yang, you can work harder!"

Xiao Yuzhi glanced at Yang Pingzhong with a smile, obviously knowing what he was doing.

Yang Pingzhong's eyes lit up.

"Good boy, I made a mistake!"
