Chapter 144

The night watchman is Jiang Fan and another disciple.

In the middle of the night, I saw my master get up and go out. They looked at each other without saying anything.

It was the first time that Jiang Fan lived in such an old house.

What's in the old house? Well, old furniture, wild mice, wild foxes, black sparrow insects, ants, damp and moldy smell

Even if none of this is available, there will always be one thing.

Memories.

This is master's hometown.

The house must be filled with memories of the past, whether it's pleasant or unpleasant.

Jiang Fan stood up and went outside the door to stretch.

A little bit of white slowly from the front of his eyes, he reached out to catch.

"Hey, it's snowing now in beifucheng."

The outside disciple behind him yawned: "it's not necessarily snowing. It may be that the snow on the mountain in the distance is accidentally blown by the wind."

Jiang Fan stood under the eaves and waited for a long time. Before the second snowfall fell, he had to admit that his words were reasonable.

The next day busy all day, Mo Chen took a few people out to buy some things, the rest of the people left to do the cleaning work. They are not many people, such a large house does not need to be cleaned out, as long as two or three adjacent yards, enough to live.

Xiaodong is very quick in his work. Jiang Fan originally said that he and his younger martial brother would get together. What he thought was that most of Xiaodong didn't know how to work. Besides, he didn't have much strength. As a result, after the morning, Jiang Fan was full of shame and had to admit that his younger brother was much more experienced than him. Before working, Xiaodong found an old dress to cover outside, and a cloth towel to cover his head and face. In addition to the bamboo broom, we also found two long bamboo poles for backup.

Jiang Fan was very puzzled at first. When he started to work, he found that it was necessary to prepare for Xiaodong.

Because Xiaodong first tied the bamboo pole and broom together to sweep up the dust on the roof and beam.

It is not a problem for Jiang Fan to sweep the dust from high places. The younger martial brother is not as good as his body method, so the way he can think of is very useful. What's more, those ashes were swept down and floated Jiang Fan first waved his sleeve, then found that it was still useless, and ran out with his head in his arms.

Thanks to his fast running, or he will be a disgrace.

After sweeping all the ashes on the beams and doors, Xiaodong found a cloth to dip in water to wipe it. After all this was done, he began to sweep the floor.

After half a day, Xiaodong not only cleaned the house, but also made the small yard outside the house look like a model. Two trees, named Xiaodong, were planted in the yard outside. Although no one took care of them for many years, the trees did not die, but they grew a little too wild. The thick green leaves were stacked one by one, and one branch even damaged a large part of the roof tiles.

Jiang Fan watched Xiaodong skillfully shovel the weeds in the brick joints, even grabbed the eaves corner to turn over the roof, arranged the displaced tiles and put them back.

As soon as he cleaned it up, the courtyard was completely new. It didn't look like it had been left vacant for many years.

With a smile, Jiang Fan stood on the ground and raised his head and asked, "have you finished? Come down. "

Xiaodong answered: "this is good."

After all, Xiaodong cleared the weeds on the roof and stood up and patted the dust on his hands.

Originally wanted to go down, but such a stand straight, Xiaodong was stunned.

Standing on the roof, you can see far away.

It was already dark when I came yesterday. I had been walking around the house and yard just now. Until now, Xiaodong didn't see how big the house was. The grey roof tiles are attached to each other, and the courtyard in the distance is shrouded in a gloomy fog.

Jiang Fan called him at the bottom: "come down after you finish. Do you want to drink hot tea?"

Xiaodong hastened to answer: "leave one for me."

At noon, they came back. Anyway, they had to buy some pots and pans, rice, noodles and vegetables. At noon, at least, he had a hot meal. For some reason, Xiaodong found that he could not finish the fried bacon in his bowl. At first, the master took two pieces of bacon for him, and then he buried his head in the bacon and took a mouthful of rice. When he looked up, he found that there were two more pieces of meat in the bowl.

Two pieces, two pieces and two pieces. It seems that I can't finish the meat.

Finally, Xiaodong stopped working, protecting the bowl and retreating: "don't carry vegetables for me, I can't eat any more."

Elder martial sister Linglong ignored him and took two pieces of meat for him: "what you eat these days is cat food, no, it's bird food. Your face is so thin that there is no meat on your face. Please eat more and make up for it."

Jiang Fan also asked Mo Chen, "elder martial brother, do we have any tonic? Give Xiaodong two pairs of medicine to drink. "

Is he thin?

Xiaodong didn't feel it.

As for the flesh on the face He raised his hand and touched it as if his face was thinner?

It should be due to the fact that we have been on the road for many days. As soon as we settle down, we should have more sleep.Xiaodong remembers that he used to be with his uncle, but when he was moved or on the road, he would always be skinny.

He didn't notice it, but everyone else saw it. Mo Chen also took out a bag of fruit from his sleeve and handed it to him: "I saw it outside just now, so I bought two kinds of it. You can see if the snacks in beifucheng fit or not."

The elder martial brother quietly opened a small stove for him.

Xiaodong is happy and a little guilty. When I took the paper bag, I turned my head instinctively.

Mo Chen looked at him like a little mouse stealing oil. He wanted to laugh and stifled it.

Xiaodong picked out a corner of the paper bag, pinched a piece of it and put it in his mouth. Before he tasted it, he nodded: "delicious, very delicious." While nodding, he also picked out a piece of contact Mo Chen's mouth and handed: "elder martial brother, you also eat."

Mo Chen was suddenly stuffed with a snack. He didn't like to eat this kind of too sweet and greasy food. However, looking at his younger martial brother's earnest expression, he asked, "is it delicious? Is it delicious? " I had to follow his words and say, "delicious."

Xiaodong happily licked the powdered sugar on his fingertips, carefully put the snacks into a basket, and then put the basket into the cabinet.

"What did you do in the morning?"

When Mo Chen asked, Xiaodong held his finger and said that he had done some work in the morning. He was very excited and looked like "I am very good at praising". At last, he was puzzled and said, "master's family must have been a lot of people at that time, right? How many people can live in such a big house? "

"Maybe." Mo Chen told him: "master is not willing to mention the past, you do not want to ask, remember?"

Xiaodong quickly nodded: "I promise not to ask."

Mo Chen is still trustworthy about Xiaodong's guarantee. The younger martial brother is not a person who doesn't know the importance. Sometimes he is too sensible.

"Elder martial brother, where did you go this morning? Is it lively outside? "

"It's quite lively." Mo Chen said, "we didn't take the road when we came yesterday, and it was too late. In the daytime, Beifu city is very prosperous. When you are settled down, I'll take you out and have a good look. "

"Where do those who are capable like the city Lord live? Is it far from here? "

This is a little childish.

Mo Chen said with a smile: "it's quite far away. Ordinary people can't get close to the city Lord's house, and ordinary people can't see the city Lord. But there is a chance to open your eyes

In the next few days, all the disciples of the mountain returned to settle down and rest. Elder martial sister Linglong couldn't stay idle. She went around all the places in the house and said that there was a big flower garden in the house. She also picked up a lot of flowers.

"Put one in your room, too." Linglong said, "take care of the garden and plant some miraculous medicine in it."

In terms of age, Xiaodong should be curious and active at this age. But I don't know why, but Xiaodong is not willing to go out. He only walks around the yards where they live temporarily, and doesn't go to any places far away.

He couldn't say why.

Every time he saw the closed doors and windows and the silent courtyard, he always felt a little uncomfortable.

It's not fear

There was an indescribable feeling that he didn't even dare to stare at those places for a long time. He always felt a little uncomfortable.

He was very curious about beifucheng outside the gate.

In recent days, they have also dealt with outsiders. Some people bring firewood, charcoal and fresh vegetables. Although these people also live in Beifu City, they are ordinary people. There was a kind of instinctive awe for those who were practicing Taoism at first sight. They didn't dare to speak much. They gave things and collected money and left quickly.

However, from their mouths, we can also hear some recent news from outside.

It is said that many people have come to the city in recent days. There are people from all over the country who have great skills. Some inns and empty houses in the city are almost full.

Xiaodong remembers the news she heard before.

Are these people here to recommend the new city Lord?

It is said that the old injury of the city Lord of Song Dynasty recurred. It is difficult for this city Lord to sit firmly. It is imperative to recommend a new one.

What elder martial brother said about watching the fun also refers to this.

"How to recommend the new town?"

Jiang Fan said with a smile, "well, anyway, we don't want to fight for the title of the city Lord. We just watch the fun. It has been several decades since the city Lord of Song Dynasty was elected. At the beginning, it seems that three or five people were recommended. However, they did not engage in martial arts competition to hurt harmony. They talked about Taoism and martial arts together. Later, several others were elected and convinced of the city Lord of Song Dynasty, so they withdrew voluntarily. It seems that song city has both virtue and virtue... "

Linglong sneered beside her: "nonsense. There are many people with good virtue. Why don't you see others become the city Lord? In the final analysis, it depends on the ability. If you have virtue, the city Lord will become one, and others will not be convinced when they speak. If you want me to say, among the people who were elected at the beginning, the master of the city of song must be the top-notch one. "

If Jiang fan doesn't fight with her, he can't do it anyway.

He asked Mo Chen and Xiaodong for approval: "elder martial brother, younger martial brother, do you think Kung Fu or virtue matters? If you are a city master, do not harm the people of this city? "Mo Chen said: "the city Lord of Song Dynasty has a righteous heart and a noble character, which is also recognized in the same way."

Xiaodong nodded and agreed: "the elder martial brother is right. But the ability is also very important. Otherwise, why can't the city Lord of Song Dynasty become a city Lord if his old wounds recur? It can be seen that if you have no skills, you are not willing to listen. "
