Chapter 1 Sharpening the Sword (2)

Chapter 1: Sword Sharpening (2)

"Ahhhh! It's bitter, it's bitter!" Everyone turned around and saw the Buddha statue scattered with blue smoke on its belly. They could no longer care about the axe that came before, so they picked up all the useful guys around them and tried hard to put out the fire.

The Buddha statue in the Main Hall is made of hardwood, but it is coated with a layer of gold paint on the surface. It has been burnt by smoke and fire for many years, and has long been baked. Today, it was suddenly lit by a mine. It was so rushed that it could not be wiped out in a hurry? But everyone had no buckets, water bags and other items in their hands, so they could only take off their clothes and run to the rain to draw water. As a result, after half an hour of busyness, with the help of the minions who came to hear the news, they finally threw the fire down. Looking at the gold-suited Buddha statue, it was smoked like a blind man, and there was no more **. Even the ceiling above their heads were burned into the bottom of the pot, and the shaved pickled rice dumplings were painted. (Note 1)

All the conquerors present were tired as dogs. After forcing their supporters to retreat, they squatted on the ground with sewage flowing, panting and gasping. After they had enough breathing, they remembered the "culprit" of the fire. They turned their heads to someone who was also squatting on the ground and panting wildly, and said in a lingering manner: "Little fat, why are you back alone! What about the boss and the fourth brother? Why didn't they come back with you?"

"Have the money been changed? Will the previous family admit the claim? They won't see that we have too many people, so they will change their words, right?"

"Is the road going smoothly? Have you ever encountered Zhao Yanshou's minions? I've said a long time ago that you should not follow me. You can't help at all, and it will only cause trouble!"

“….”

Nowadays, when talking about fat, you usually say that you are rich and lucky. Fat is the same as crazy, which obviously has a derogatory meaning. The word fat in your name or nickname usually means discrimination. The boy who is called a little fat by everyone does not mind at all. He first looked around and found a relatively dry place to spread the shield on it. Then he sat down heavily and responded with a breath, "The boss, the boss and the fourth uncle are both behind. They met an acquaintance, so they had to delay two days on the road. Let me, let me come back first to report safety to some uncles!"

"Acquaintance? Who, did the other party say his name?" Ning Caichen, the second in command, was stunned for a moment, and instinctively pressed his hand on the sword.

In this chaotic year, "meeting old friends in a foreign land" is not a good sign. Besides, everyone has done extraordinary things in recent months. If the "old friends" are taken to the Khitans for credit, what is waiting for Wagang Village will be a catastrophe.

"I, I didn't remember it. It seems that there is a surname Han, with a face with a little dark face, like Uncle Wu. She is tall and tall, and she probably can reach the bridge of my nose!" The little fat reached out to Li Tieguai and responded hesitantly.

What Li Tieguai hated most in his life was that others said he was black. He stood up and scolded loudly, "What's wrong with black? It's so dark that it's like me. Can you speak human language?!"

The boy was slightly stunned by his question, and instinctively shrank his shoulders back, not knowing how to answer. When the second leader Ning Caichen saw this, he immediately spoke and persuaded him: "Fifth, forget it. Don't be as knowledgeable as a child! Let's talk about the serious matter first!"

"As a serious matter, do you still expect him to do it?" Li Tieguai, the fifth leader, didn't like anything today, frowned and roared, "Let him come back to report the message! He can't even tell who the other party is, he only remembers his surname Han! The whole world's surname Han has gone, and no one even has the name, how can everyone know which one it is? Let him come back to report his safety, did the boss forget that he is a fool? When he comes back, I'm even more uneasy!"

"I'm not a fool! I, I just suffered a little injury!" Although the young fat boy was afraid of Li Tieguai, he refused to admit that he was stupid. His face turned red and he made a loud defense, "Besides, the boss didn't have any at that time, and he didn't tell me what his name was. He just asked me to call him Uncle Han. By the way, he has a son, his surname is Han. He is also a black and brawny man. He is almost as tall as me and his age is similar to mine!"

When the fifth head Li Tieguai saw that he dared to talk back, he felt even more angry. He lifted the iron crutch and pointed at the other person's nose and roared, "The boss didn't tell you that you didn't have a mouth under your nose? He gave his son, his son's surname is not Han, is he still like you, looks pretty, but he doesn't even know what his surname is?!"

This was a bit too hurtful. Xiaofei's eyes, which had already flushed, immediately saw tears. However, her mouth couldn't keep up and could not say anything to refute for a while. However, her originally opened hand was involuntarily tighter and tighter.

The fifth head Li Tieguai saw it and was furious. He raised Tieguai in his hand high, "What? You an ungrateful little wolf who is not well-off! Why are you clenching your fists? Do you still want to hit me? Come on, see if I can break your legs today!"

"Lao Wu, enough!" Seeing Li Tieguai's weapon was about to fall, the second in command, Ning Caichen, quickly stepped forward half a step and stood in front of Xiao Fei. "What was his injury at that time? You don't know! It's not easy to remember the other party's surname Han, who is very dark. Don't ask too much about him?"

"Yes, Lao Wu, don't always target him! The boss must have nothing to do, otherwise, with his personality, how could Xiao Fei come back to report the news by himself!"

"Isn't it? You don't believe in Xiaofei, or the boss?"

"Wouldn't you ask the minions? Xiao Fei didn't come back alone, why are you trying to hold him to the death? With the caution of the boss, how could he not send someone to protect him all the way!"

.....

Several other heads also came over and persuaded them. The young Xiaofei was picked up by them from the pile of dead last year. At that time, there was a wound as big as a bowl on the back of his head, which was deep enough to see the bones. At one glance, he knew that he was injured by a Khitan warrior with an iron mace. Everyone thought that he could not save him. Only the second head Ning Caichen insisted on finding a doctor for the child with the idea of ​​accumulating good deeds for everyone.

As a result, Xiao Fei's life was finally saved, but she fell into a very troublesome hidden disease. Not only did she usually speak and do things, she could not see any cleverness that was unique to a young man. Her memory also became extremely poor and she was often lost. She couldn't even remember what his own surname was and where his home was. She looked confused when asked.

The anger in the fifth head Li Tieguai's stomach today was certainly not entirely because of Xiao Fei's flying axe. But seeing everyone talking for the young man, she suddenly couldn't get out of the stage. She frowned and gritted her teeth and said, "Protect him again, you protect him again! You protect him! Sooner or later, you will all die at his hands! Look, look at him, do you really not remember him? It was obvious that he was deliberately pretending to be stupid, and then let everyone not continue to ask about his origin!"

Everyone was shocked by his words and couldn't help but turn around quickly. However, seeing Xiao Fei's slightly tender face and red eyes, the suspicion in his heart suddenly flew away without a trace. "Okay, Lao Wu, you are suspicious again. Xiao Fei has been following us for a day or two. Even if he can pretend, how could he not show any flaws? Besides, look at his age, which is about fifteen or sixteen. Whose child can trick people in his forties or fifties into a circle!"

"Yes, what are the benefits of them lying us? What are the benefits of us people worth lying?"

"Lao Wu, you haven't tried him! When he woke up, you tried to test him every day! Even if he really had something to hide, you had already dug out!"

......

"Are you a little man and a big ghost! Who knows what kind of intestines are hidden in his belly?" Li Tieguai, the fifth head of the house, said that everyone was not willing to give up. "Even if he really had absent-minded disease, you see that he looked like this, might he come from an ordinary family? And the jade tablet on his neck. What if he had anything to do with the one who was captured by the Khitans, what would we end up with?"

This sentence really came to the critical point. Everyone was speechless.

The little fat is too white and too tender. After half a year of wind and sun exposure, he cannot make his skin look slightly darker. Standing with the minions in the village, it is like a white crane standing in a flock of chickens. Without looking carefully, you can conclude that they are not the same.

In these chaotic years, those who could grow up to eight feet away at the age of fifteen or sixteen must have come from a wealthy and rich family. Last year, the Khitans invaded and Du Chongwei, who was ordered to lead troops to resist foreign humiliation, turned against the enemy. The horse army all arranged a formation to enlist Zhang Yanzegan as the vanguard of the Khitans, turned around and led his troops to attack Bianliang. Overnight, countless royal families fell from the clouds.

If everyone accidentally picked up a young man from a noble family from the pile of corpses, it would not be a bad thing. When they had the opportunity to contact Xiao Fei's living relatives, they would have to exchange hundreds of coins of thanks for the copycat. However, what everyone really couldn't figure out was that among so many wealthy families who had suffered disasters, there was no surname in the surname, which matched the word "Zheng" on the jade token on Xiao Fei's neck. And since Bianliang was captured until now, I have never heard of any prominent family looking for a lost young man publicly or privately.

Even if Xiao Fei's life was extremely miserable, all the elders of the direct line had died under the sword of the riots. But the king of heaven was inevitably a poor relative. The people of the Central Plains have always valued blood. Xiao Fei's parents' relatives and friends, after the end of the great chaos in Bianliang City, how could he ignore the blood that the old friends might have left in the world?!

When all the doubts are not explained clearly, the answer may be the only one left. This is what Li Tieguai, the fifth leader, is most suspicious and everyone is most afraid of. The jade plaque is not a surname, but has its own meaning. It is said that the emperor captured by the Khitans was named King Zheng before he ascended the throne. If this speculation accidentally becomes reality, I am afraid that although the world is big, there will be only a dead end for everyone! (Note 2)

"I, I didn't lie to you on purpose!" Just as everyone was nervous, the young man called the little fat explained behind everyone's back, "I, I really can't remember it. The reason why the boss brought me with me this time was to let me see the places outside the mountain and see if I could remember anything. But I really can't remember it. I've been thinking hard all day long and desperately, but I don't have any impression of what I saw! I swear. I can swear to the Buddha in the hall! If I really know who I am, let me hit me with lightning!"

"Oh! Poor child!" Except for Li Tieguai, who still had a cold face, the other leaders sighed and shook their heads. Although everyone often scolded Buddha and ancestors, in fact, they always had some awe in their hearts for the strange powers and gods in the dark. Especially after being scared to death by the mines that broke into the broken window, they felt that the Buddha statue in the hall with its intestines and belly might really have some unpredictable power!

Since Xiao Fei dared to make a heavy oath in front of the Buddha, it undoubtedly proved that his condition was by no means a disguise. Everyone should not be silenced just because they had doubts about his origin. Besides, Xiao Fei is still a child. Everyone rolled on the head of the knife for half their lives, and doing good deeds occasionally must have a beginning and an end.

"Since you can't remember, you don't have to think about it anymore!" The second head Ning Caichen turned the softest, turned around, squatted in front of the boy, and comforted loudly, "From now on, you will follow my surname Ning. Call me, call me..."

He couldn't think of an appropriate name even after scrambling his stomach. He glanced at everyone one by one, and suddenly saw the half-iron snake spear in his hand in Xu Yuan, the third leader, raising the half-iron snake spear, "It was called Ning Yanzhang. There was a great hero named Tiejian Wang Yanzhang. He had a unclear origin, but he still made great achievements. It doesn't matter who you can't remember who you are. It doesn't matter what your surname is, and who your species is! What's important is that you don't forget that you must work hard to live well and strive to be a hero who stands tall!" (Note 3)

"Yes!" The young man called the little fat nodded, with a bit of the seriousness that the young man was unique to, "From now on, I will follow my second uncle's surname Ning. I will definitely be a hero who stands tall and upholds your hopes."

"Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't be a hero. Just live happily in this life. Anyway, no matter what, I am your second uncle!" Seeing the little fat sincere appearance, Ning Caichen's face instantly felt like licking the calf, touched the boy's head, and added with a smile...

"Crack!" A purple lightning burst into pieces and shone on the Buddha's statue's smoked and fire-burning face. In an instant, the Buddha's eyes seemed to lit up, looking at the countless beings under his feet, full of compassion.

Note 1: Land mines, that is, spherical lightning. They are blue, green or purple, and have great destructive power.

Note 2: Shi Chonggui was Shi Jingtang's adopted son. He was brave and good at fighting when he was young. Shi Jingtang first named him King of Zheng, and later named him King of Qi. After the demise of the Later Jin Dynasty, Shi Chonggui's two sons disappeared.

Note 3: Wang Yanzhang is the legendary Wang Tieqin. A famous general of the Five Dynasties, his martial arts skills in storytelling are second only to Li Cunxiao. Legend has it that before he was excavated by Zhu Wen, he was an orphan who made a living by herd sheep. However, he learned his martial arts without a teacher.
