Chapter 176: Demon Lord?
"Good fate?"
Qi Wuhuo shook his head when he heard this and said something in his dream:
"What's the point of asking for nothing?"
After a pause, a little stubborn young man defended himself:
"I didn't help my father-in-law to repay you!"
The old man smiled and said, "Of course I know."
Then he didn't say anything.
Da Gengren walked over with a clapper and glanced at Qi Wuhuo, as if he couldn't see the old man on his back, but said impatiently:
"I'm afraid there's snow tonight. Your thin clothes are outside, so I'm afraid you're going to be killed by freezing! Go home quickly." Da Geng was wearing a dark blue cotton jacket, but it seemed that he hadn't washed it for a long time. He brought a layer of black gloves made of animal skin, and a water bag was hung around his waist, but there was strong wine inside.
Walking in the night in winter is even more chores.
Drinking a sip of strong wine to moisten your throat and refresh your mind, and it can also warm your body. As long as it is not too much, don’t fall drunk next to you, it’s okay.
Qi Wuhuo thanked him and let the road go.
After the fight against Geng people, he walked step by step towards the home with the old man on his back. The fight against Geng people walked forward a few steps. Suddenly, he thought of something and was about to turn around and say it, but he saw the boy stepping forward step by step, calmly but extremely fast, like a dragon and tiger step, crashing into the wind and snow, and disappeared in a few steps. He couldn't help but be stunned.
"Strange, how could this kid have such a fast footwork today?"
"It's like running."
"Is it not to be tired?"
I wiped my eyes and looked at the wine pot again. In a flash, most of it was still there, so I became more suspicious: "I didn't drink too much."
"How strange."
…………
The town is quite large with more than 10,000 residents. In the middle is the place where officials handle affairs. With this as the center, the second level is the wealthy households in the town, and the second level is the wealthy family in the town. Qi Wuhuo was originally a foreign refugee. Although he was taken in, there was only a small wooden house on the edge of the town.
It was originally where the guards of the forest were living more than 20 years ago to resist wild beasts. Later, the official sent troops up the mountain several times, and the beasts retreated in the range of movement. The guards of the forest disappeared. The house was abandoned for more than ten years and had long been dilapidated.
Although there were many refugees coming here back then, no one could admire them.
I would rather go further and go to this prefecture, but Qi Wuhuo, who was only nine years old at that time, stayed here.
The old man carried him on his back, and he had arrived in a short while. He was entered by that strange aura and was strong in strength. He seemed to be faster than Qi Wuhuo himself going down the mountain and going home.
He could not sense the breath that had entered his body before, and just thought it was the urge to wind and snow today, and he was quick to walk. He pushed open the door and asked the old man to sit on the bench first, then make a fire with hay. In a moment, the whole room warmed up. He took out a small tulle bag, which contained many alien insects. It shone at night, like a light, placed in the center, and the whole room was bright.
The old man took a bowl of hot water handed over by Qi Wuhuo, looked at the insect lamp, and smiled in surprise:
"Ha... the kid is agile."
Qi Wuhuo said, "There is no wealth in the family, so I have to find a way."
The old man looked around the small wooden house.
The originally dilapidated places have been repaired. There are not many utensils in the house, but they are all neatly arranged. There are also several pots of green plants that can grow in winter on the side of the windowsill, which are refreshing and clean overall.
There were a few pieces of bacon hanging on one side, and they looked like wild animals in the mountains.
The fur was peeled off and dried into dried meat.
In today's world, many places with abundant plants and many harmless beasts are marked by the royal family for their hunting grounds. The powerful and powerful hunting horses in spring and autumn, and usually let these beasts reproduce and survive.
Ordinary people must not go inside to hunt with their bows, otherwise they will be caught for dozens of whip and lie in bed for three months, or at worst, they may be caught on the spot by the parade soldiers and sent to prison.
These beasts like rabbits can occasionally be caught.
There are quite a few here, which shows that this young man is very agile and the end of the year is approaching. This is probably prepared for the winter. Although he is poor, he is full of expectations for life.
The old man nodded slightly.
But I had already seen Qi Wuhuo grinding herbs, and had taken some rough grains into the jar, added water and cooked them after three fingers. When it was not cooked, I took a piece of braised rabbit meat. I originally planned to cut it into a small part, but after thinking about it, I cut it a little bit more.
Cut it into small pieces on the table, put the sweeter the cabbage after frosting in winter and cook it in a jar. After a moment, the aroma will spread and the warmth will rise.
When I changed the medicine for the old man, the pot of meat porridge was already prepared. I put the table on one side upside down and flat, and served two bowls of porridge, and a stack of vinegar-pickled cabbage on the table.
The boy said:
"The family is poor and there is nothing to entertain."
"I hope the old man won't be surprised."
The old man looked at the handsome but serious boy in front of him and could feel that the child seemed to be quite happy about the fact that he could have a meal with others after he returned home instead of being alone.
But even though I am happy, my face is still calm and calm.
The old man took a sip of porridge and found it quite delicious. He picked up another chopstick to pickle vegetables, which was crisp and refreshing, and smiled and said, "It's delicious, I don't know what to call you yet. Kid, don't you know the name of Gao?"
Qi Wuhuo put down his bowls and chopsticks and said:
"The name Gao is not considered a big name, my surname is Qi."
"The name is Wuhuo, and I hope you will never be confused for life."
The old man sighed: "Qi Wuhuo..."
"The word "Wukuai" is simple to say, but it is rare."
"My husband's surname is Li. To be honest, I've lived too long and haven't used his name for a long time."
I don't know what I thought of, but my voice paused slightly. Looking at the boy in front of me, I just saw that his soul was powerful and hidden. I thought he was an evil demon and heresy who took possession of his body, but he was carried all the way. I felt that his soul was in harmony, and there was no possibility of taking possession of his body. The voice paused, thought for a moment, and then smiled:
"But you carried me all the way, healed my injuries and gave me food. I have to repay you well. Come on, come on, you can say everything you want, I will definitely satisfy you."
Qi Wuhuo shook his head and said, "I didn't save Mr. Li for these reasons."
The old man stroked his beard and reached out to smile:
"Take it slow, take it slow, and it's not too late to finish listening first."
He looked at Qi Wuhuo's life, pointed out his hand at the dilapidated gatekeeper, and smiled and said, "In this way, I will give you a thousand taels of gold and silver, and you will get ten cars and horses, hundreds of servants, three in and three out of the house, rich and noble for a lifetime, and dozens of children, how about it?"
Qi Wuhuo shook his head.
The old man asked why, smiled.
Qi Wuhuo thought for a while and replied:
"If you accept it without judging etiquette and righteousness, what should you add to me if you don't want to argue about etiquette and righteousness?"
"I feel ashamed of it."
This is the text he once saw in his dream.
The old man was stunned, thought for a while, and said, "That's it, what's the matter? I see you living alone and living alone. I am a little famous and recognized the five surnames and seven sects. The youngest daughter of the Cui family is very beautiful, like a banished immortal. You save my life. I am willing to ask for it for you. How about it?"
"With this family helping each other, a beautiful wife accompanying you, a beautiful woman by your side, and a love affair with each other, and a red sleeve adds fragrance. Are you not happy?"
Qi Wuhuo frowned and shook his head, "Brother-in-law, you said that in order to repay me, you have to change the fate of a woman you have never met before. This is to put me injustice."
"Besides, I don't recognize her. If I agree, wouldn't it just to be greedy for physical appearance? Why do you say that you are in love with each other?"
The old man still had to speak, and Qi Wuhuo pointed at the porridge:
"Sir, the porridge is going to be cold."
After a pause, he added another sentence: The boy felt the biggest threat:
"If you don't eat it, I'll eat it!"
The old man didn't think that being rejected several times was offended, but instead smiled a little stronger. He nodded with a smile, took a sip of porridge, and finally shook his head and said:
"I don't want this, I don't want that, I don't want this."
He put down the porridge, his black eyes were as gentle as jade, and his mouth slightly curled, and he said lightly:
"You take me a thousand, two hundred steps and you should make good friends."
"The door is the way, and the sutra is the way."
"I will open a door and have a thousand and two hundred years of life with Erzha."
