Chapter 93
“I sincerely tell the rivers and lakes...”
When Liu Yumei’s voice sounded, although Li Zhuiyuan was still standing in the room, his consciousness fell into Some kind of strange trance.
In his sight, the lamp with the golden dragon raising its head seemed to come alive all of a sudden.
The body of the golden dragon separated from the lamp, first twisting, then circling, the wick of the lamp was like fire, and its breath was gushing.
It left the ground, flew to him, and then followed it around.
It seemed like something had been burned, but there was no burning smell, only wisps of smoke and a faint crisp sound in my ears.
If I have to make a metaphor, it is yarn.
A layer, a veil covering your feet, covering the road, and covering your destiny.
Gauze is thin and can transmit light.
Just like more than a year ago, Li Zhuiyuan dug out the "Stories of Jianghu and Zhiguai" for the first time in his grandfather's basement.
In this book, Wei Zhengdao summarizes all the deaths he has seen and heard in his life. It is an encyclopedia about death.
This set of books is Li Zhuiyuan’s enlightenment.
Since then, Li Zhuiyuan has planned the path he will take in the future.
Go back to high school, choose a college, compete in the Mathematical Olympiad, and get admitted early.
Including the relationship with Luo Gong, it is also to ensure that he can participate in large-scale water conservancy projects in the future.
Therefore, the road under his feet was only covered with a light veil.
But there are some things, even if there is only a little light, there is still an undercurrent below.
He had indeed started walking across the river a long time ago, but his walking was not clear, straightforward, and smooth.
Opening the altar and walking across the river and Liu Yumei’s announcement were equivalent to helping him disperse the last layer of mist.
This is a river that is destined to be difficult to navigate, full of difficulties and obstacles, and prone to overturning at every turn.
But it is right here.
Compared with open-ended subjective questions, teenagers prefer objective questions with limited conditions, no matter how complex and difficult the latter are.
Now, the topic is listed in front of you, just pick up the pen and do it.
After losing the confusion of clouds and fog,
I just feel relaxed and at ease all over.
Even the golden dragon that was still flying around him looked a little cute to Li Zhuiyuan, dumbfounded, like his own little black one.
In reality, the lamp is still the same lamp, with the golden dragon still hanging on the lamp, and the wick candlelight swaying in its mouth.
Most of the people in the room could not see the vision Li Zhuiyuan saw at this time.
In the eyes of Runsheng and the other three, Li Zhuiyuan seemed to relax.
They worshiped the Dragon King and understood the meaning of the second lamp, but it was impossible to say how deep their understanding and understanding was.
Just now, they felt nervous and uneasy from the reactions of Liu Yumei and others, but after seeing the current state of their brother Xiaoyuan, the three of them felt relieved.
No matter how serious the matter is, if you change your perspective and mentality, it can turn into: Oh, what a big deal.
Other emotions in Uncle Qin's eyes were dispelled, and all that was left was emotion.
I recall that when I first lit the second lamp, my mistress was still young.
Facing the rows of memorial tablets on the altar table and facing the responsibility of reviving the Qin and Liu families, he gritted his teeth, looked solemn, and felt uneasy and fearful in his heart.
But the same scene, coupled with unexpected opportunities and arrangements, fell on the young man in front of him, but he showed a kind of freedom and ease.
This is not a disguise, because in this atmosphere, people who are capable of pretending... do not have the need to pretend.
When you see someone better than yourself, you will suddenly realize that your own failure seems inevitable.
Aunt Liu's perception is more straightforward. She feels that Xiao Yuan seems to have an extra layer of temperament, which makes the already good-looking boy even more beautiful.
In this way, boys and girls will be closer in temperament, and they will look more harmonious when they are together.
Aunt Liu now urgently needs this sweetness in her mouth to offset the pain of Yin Meng cooking for herself.
Liu Yumei looked at Li Zhuiyuan and waved gently.
The boy did not move because he was still immersed in his own emotions.
Uncle Qin walked out.
Aunt Liu wanted to take Ali's hand and lead her away, but Ali didn't move and still looked at the boy.
She doesn't like painting, she only likes to draw Li Zhuiyuan. She thinks the boy looks very good now, including the little golden dragon flying around him in the background.
Aunt Liu looked at Liu Yumei, who nodded slightly.
The entrance ceremony and the river walking ceremony have been completed. Next, it is time for the elders to tell them that Ali is sitting in the Qin family today and can stay, although she cannot speak.
But Liu Yumei knew that for this brat, one look from her granddaughter was worth more than a thousand words from her.
Seeing this, Runsheng and the other two followed him out.
Liu Yumei, A Li and Li Zhuiyuan were the only ones left in the room.
Finally, the golden dragon left the area around his body and fell back onto the lamp.
In reality, the lights go out.
In the eyes of normal people, this lamp is wonderfully lit but suddenly turned off.
But in Li Zhuiyuan's view, the light had already burned around his body, making him feel warm now.
He couldn't help but turned his head and looked out the window. The thunder had stopped, but the wind and rain remained the same.
At this time, I really want to open the window, let in some wind and rain, and have a cool moment.
"Squeak..."
The window was pushed open by a hand, and the wind and rain came in.
As soon as the cool breeze blew, moistening his face, Li Zhuiyuan woke up completely.
At this moment, he realized that everyone else had left.
Li Zhuiyuan turned around, faced Liu Yumei who was standing by the window, and said apologetically: "I was distracted."
Liu Yumei admired the scenery outside the window like black clouds looming over the city. He smiled and said:
“It’s a good thing to think more about how to swim before going into the river. It’s better than jumping in all at once without any care.”
Li Zhuiyuan heard what the old lady meant, but fortunately Uncle Qin was not here at the moment.
"Grandma, I have a question. Aunt Liu told me before. Now, I want to confirm it with you."
"Say."
"I'm leaving Empress Jiang, the impact on your family. "
"If you change your surname and move, you are considered to be divorced from your family in the north; if your household registration is under Li Sanjiang's name, it is considered to be divorced from your family in the south.
< br>
In other words, in your narrow family, there is only Li Sanjiang.
Your great-grandfather is very lucky. As long as he stays in his hometown and does not move, he will still be able to enjoy a good life.
Even if you want to go back and have a look, you can always, just treat him like before. Don't engage in any big battles to change your luck, change your energy, or extend your life, and you won't have any problems.
The old guy is really lucky. He shares the same household registration book with you, and he also signed a contract early to leave his inheritance to you. It is so deeply bound.
When you walk across the river in the future, the merit accumulated by those evil spirits in the town will be transferred to him.
When people sit at home, blessings come from heaven.
It is normal for the old guy to live a healthy and over 100 years old. "
Li Zhuiyuan: "What about our relatives in Guangyi? "
" Relatives in a broad sense do not refer to your relatives in the north and south, but to us, the Qin and Liu families.
It is precisely because you entered the door that the separation of ties between the north and the south has deepened. ”
"Then if my trip to the river goes smoothly..."
Liu Yumei said bluntly: "The Qin and Liu families will definitely benefit,"
"...As for Ali's illness, Will it get better?”
Liu Yumei: “Isn’t A’li’s illness getting better?”
“The condition is still there, but A’li has become more accustomed to it. ”
"It will get better." Liu Yumei looked at Ah Li and continued, "They are all defeated and filthy remnants of their former subordinates. They just took advantage of the opportunity and came to bully us orphans and widowed mothers."
"What should I do?"
< "You don't have to do anything deliberately, you just have to do what you should do and walk your river well. The stronger you are, the more the Qin and Liu families will be revived, and those who bully the weak and fear the strong will be scared off." ”
Li Zhuiyuan nodded.
Then he stopped talking.
Fortunately, the sound of wind and rain was mixed in, but it didn't seem dull.
Liu Yumei asked: "Why don't you continue talking?"
Li Zhuiyuan: "Because I have finished asking all I want to ask."
Liu Yumei pointed to the table on the altar Tablet: "There are still three thousand nails in the rotten ship. Don't you look down on it?"
"Grandma, that's not what I meant."
"Are you afraid of involving us?" Liu Yumei's fingertips lightly hooked, the window was closed, and the room suddenly became quiet. "In ordinary families, when the younger generation goes out, the elders know how to prepare some expenses. Now, it is not easy for our Qinliu family to have someone else. Zuojiang, as a member of the family, I should leave everything to him."
"Grandma... "
"Grandma, I am old, but I can still afford to be pampered all my life;
You, Uncle Qin and Aunt Liu, although you are incompetent elders, you can still handle things. .
The new house is a little smaller, but can it also protect it from wind and rain?
When you encounter something you can't afford to offend or deal with, come back when you need to, and invite people when you need to.
Once the door of this house is closed, there are not many things in the world that dare to knock and come in.
When I really want to go out, no matter which house I look for, I won’t be able to bear it.
The threat of death is still there, and our two families are not as good as before, but precisely because of this, we are even more willing to take risks. ”
Ali nodded.
Li Zhuiyuan had seen Liu Yumei's caution at the Taiye's house, so he naturally understood the weight of what Liu Yumei had just said.
Unless you light up the lamp again, it will be an end to your journey across the river.
Otherwise, if you encounter something outside and hide back home, the person who protects you will suffer the backlash of luck.
Not to mention who in the family takes the initiative to stand up for him. The side effects of this move will only become more severe. Maybe he will save his life once he stands up.
It can be said that from the moment the second lamp was lit, the relationship between myself and Liu Yumei and others became the relationship between my grandfather and them in the past.
You can live and eat together, and you can live a normal life, but as long as metaphysics is involved, it will cause negative effects.
"Grandma, you also saw it. Although you officially announced it today, in fact, I have been walking in the dark on this river.
What I mean is, How did I leave before? After that, I continued Just keep going like this.
I have my own habits and my own rhythm.
The old model is not necessarily the best, but it is what I find most suitable. My.
So,
we carry on as usual? "
"Xiaoyuan, you have your own reasons, but I also have my own rules. You can't just talk about your own reasons and completely ignore grandma's rules.
Grandma, I have lived a decent life all my life, and this is not bad.
You have to let me catch a cold, cough, and cough.
In this way, after you successfully cross the river, when I go to meet those old immortals again, I will have the nerve to pretend to be humble and say, "Actually, I just picked up a Dragon King for nothing." "
"Since grandma said this, I will speak. "
" said. "
"You, Uncle Qin and Aunt Liu, continue to teach Zhuangzhuang, Runsheng and Yinmeng for a while. "
"This is not an opening. I have promised you a long time ago, and I promised you twice. ”
"The past was before, and the present is now. Different promises have completely different weights at different times."
When I didn't go to the river, this didn't matter, but now, it all involves cause and effect. Moreover, judging from the results of having already walked into the river, the cause and effect has actually appeared.
For example, Uncle Qin came back seriously injured, or Aunt Liu was almost poisoned to death today.
One of them wants to teach Runsheng Kung Fu, and the other wants to teach Yin Meng Poison Technique.
The old lady was fine because she only taught Binbin how to talk.
If you have to pay a price...
The most cost-effective thing in this world between payment and reward is - learning.
It is better to let Uncle Qin help him fight than to let Runsheng learn and develop into Uncle Qin;
To let Aunt Liu help him with treatment and poisoning, it is better to let Yinmeng learn and develop into Aunt Liu.
Anyway, according to common sense and experience, the storm when we first entered the river was not too big, and our team still had room for error tolerance and development.
Liu Yumei asked: "What about yourself? What about me?"
Obviously Liu Yumei also noticed that this backlash has occurred.
But there is no way. The old lady who has always been nice to others is not allowed to let Ali and Ating bleed. She also has to hold a handkerchief to catch them, otherwise she will not be happy.
“Grandma, it’s your decision. Help me choose a set of basic books. The more basic the better.”
"Grandma, I can actually carry it much better than the two of them."
"I know, I believe it."
Li Zhuiyuan looked at the chair Liu Yumei was sitting on, The handrails on both sides had been crushed, and there were two small piles of thin sawdust on the ground.
This cannot be accomplished by strength alone.
"Then just ask grandma to order something good. You're welcome, and let grandma bleed out happily."
"But, I lack the foundation."
If the foundation is not strong, you will suffer in the future. This is a truth that school teachers often say.
Li Zhuiyuan suffered too much in the past because of this.
He is not in short supply of high-end exercises now. The most important thing is that he can go back to the basement of his grandfather's house and continue to pick up these high-end exercises and secrets.
The old man simply regarded those ancient books as scraps that could not be sold at a price, and they were not his own at all.
This also means that no matter how many sets of books I pick up, they will have no backlash on the master.
Liu Yumei closed her eyes, seeming to accept her fate, and said lightly:
"Okay."
Li Zhuiyuan smiled and said: "Grandma, wait until Runsheng and the others have learned After this period of time, our relationship will be the same as before.”
“It’s up to you.”
Liu Yumei waved her hand, signaling to leave quickly.
What came to her mind now was actually the scene of Li Sanjiang sitting in front of a small square stool that day, holding a pen and calculating the college expenses for Li Zhuiyuan.
Sometimes, it is a kind of depression when you obviously have the conditions and financial resources, but you can’t get out.
What is even more depressing is that Liu Yumei finds that she has been empathizing with Li Sanjiang recently.
"Grandma, I'll leave first."
Li Zhuiyuan walked towards Ah Li.
The young man didn’t really like Ah Li’s outfit today because it was too solemn and lacked a bit of innocence and playfulness. Fortunately, this kind of outfit could only be worn a few times in a lifetime.
Ali stood up and handed his hand to the boy.
The moment the two held hands, Li Zhuiyuan seemed to hear the howling of ghosts and wolves.
It should be that he entered the Qin and Liu family and got his identity recognized, which made the relationship between him and Ah Li closer in legal terms.
This was the first time that Li Zhuiyuan knew that those things were still haunting her not only in the dark night when she was sleeping, but also in the waking day.
No wonder the girl only liked to sit on the bench and look straight ahead. She was trying her best to block the interference around her.
This kind of intimidation, intimidation and curse, it does not distinguish between day and night, like maggots on the tarsal bones, it is always there.
Ali seemed to have noticed something. She closed her eyes slightly, trying to cut off this connection so that the boy would not be affected.
But Li Zhuiyuan held her hand with a little force, then his eyes narrowed and he walked away.
The girl raised her head and looked at the boy, who gently raised her hand:
“Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”
You didn’t tell me even if you were playing chess or eating with me. When you are painting, you are still in this picture.
The girl did not speak.
The young man held her hand and walked out.
He opened the door and saw a corridor; outside the door was a bloody muddy swamp.
They went down the stairs. The stairs were paved with mats, which were soft and non-slip. The stairs were made of bones, and countless hands stretched out from them, trying to grab their ankles.
They came to the ground floor, and Aunt Liu had already placed delicacies for lunch on the dining table; the dining table was a big pot, and a huge sarcoma was boiling in it. The sarcoma had eyes, hands, and legs. The pot was floating and tumbling, and the mouth, which was extremely small compared to the body, kept uttering dirty curse words that were difficult to hear.
They came to the door of the house. Outside the door was the courtyard of this small three-story townhouse. When they opened the door, it was windy and rainy outside. They came to the threshold of a simple bungalow. Outside the threshold, there was a vast landscape. All kinds of weird and terrifying existences put aside what they were doing, and they all looked this way, giving out gloomy smiles.
Li Zhuiyuan is sick.
Li Lan said that mother and son were monsters in human skin, because their natural rationality would wipe out emotions and regard even the closest people around them as stupid, disgusting and lower-level beings.
If you even look at people like this, how can you still have a good impression when looking at these things that are not even people?
In other words,
How could a child who used dead evil spirits as toys to fish for and play with at the age of ten have any respect for these things in his bones?
The boy held the girl's hand and walked out of the house; the boy held the girl's hand and crossed the threshold.
Li Zhuiyuan faced the violent wind and rain around him; Li Zhuiyuan looked around at the filth and evil spirits around him.
“Those who are sealed and cannot come out, I will find you in the future, break your seal, and personally send you on your way!
Those who have been suppressed and have not been erased, I will go to the place of suppression, Repair and improve the formation, and watch you be crushed.
Who is still enjoying the incense offered by someone who is dead and still survives?
Who is enshrining you?
< br>
I will let anyone's family be wiped out with blood!
Don’t think I’m just making empty threats,
If you don’t believe me, peel off each other’s skin and see,
Who is it?
Not even human! ”
As soon as the words fell,
the rainbow passed away in the rain.
……
Liu Yumei stood by the window, looking at the sun shining through the clouds and the sky gradually clearing.
After holding back the tears for so long, my eyes were still wet after all.
But she still held on and didn't let the tears really fall down.
Because she knew that no one in this world really cared whether she cried or not.
In the past, when she was still the young lady of the Liu family, any time she shed a tear, her father and brothers would circle around her in distress. The old thing would even beg for nothing and act like a monkey for herself, completely ignoring the Qin family. The identity of the young master is just to win his tears.
They are all gone.
Only myself was left alone.
She knew that the people on the river were still afraid of her, but it was not the former Dragon King Liu or Dragon King Qin who was scary.
Even if you are polite on the surface, you should bow and bow when you should, but in your heart, I guess you have already complained.
The joke is that she is an old lady in her dying years, holding on to the plaques of two dragon kings, just to maintain the dignity she is reluctant to leave behind.
But the brighter the plaque, the more dignified it will be.
The plaque must be splashed with blood and the old blood wiped with new blood.
It doesn't matter if you are convinced on the face but not on the heart.
Kneel down and raise your head again. What I want to see is the fear and panic in your eyes.
I, the eldest daughter of the Liu family, have never known what the word "grievance" means since I was born until I got married.
But in the past few decades, you have made me swallow so much.
Come and take a look
This is a great gift from me.
"This river and lake,
should be full of blood, let me relieve my anger!"
......
The weather has cleared up and the rain has stopped.
The wife of the old professor next door was yelling at this thief and broke her TV set.
Television sets are a big and expensive item these days, and she shouted out the model of the TV set, which was a color TV set.
While cursing, the old woman changed her tune and shouted:
“Why don’t you go and kill that Shi Yuqing!”
Shi Yuqing was the old professor when he was young A female student I taught just got divorced this year.
At Li Zhuiyuan's side, everyone sat down and had lunch together peacefully. They continued to do whatever they were doing in the morning.
Ali was drawing in the study. She first drew the layout of the ceremony room, and also drew the other people who were present before.
She wants to be the last one to draw a boy. This is very similar to other children of her age who eat the bread first and leave the last bite for the cherished cream.
Li Zhuiyuan was watching her painting. In the middle of the painting, he went out to pour tea.
On weekdays, Aunt Liu would bring the tea in thoughtfully, but now she can't do that. In the afternoon, she just taught Yinmeng to cook another dish, which made the entire ground floor full of smoke. .
In the end, Liu Yumei cursed and sent the two of them to the house where they lived outside the school so that they could teach there.
Li Zhuiyuan discovered that Aunt Liu’s teaching method was very individualistic. She actually integrated the principles of poison magic into her cooking experience and taught Yin Meng through cooking.
This teaching efficiency will definitely be amazingly high.
But Li Zhuiyuan also secretly made a note to remind Runsheng not to let Yin Meng near everyone's kitchen in the future.
As for Runsheng, he is in pain now.
Uncle Qin taught him a set of boxing techniques, and Runsheng was practicing them.
Li Zhuiyuan could hear the sound of bones and muscles tearing when Runsheng was practicing boxing.
When the boy came outside the house with a bottle of boiled water, he saw that Runsheng was not only bleeding from all his orifices, but also sweat beads mixed with blood were spread all over his body.
“Continue to practice.”
After Uncle Qin gave the instructions, he took the initiative to walk towards Li Zhuiyuan and explained:
"I'm correcting his previous mistakes and laying the foundation again."
"Yeah."
Li Zhuiyuan knew that Uncle Qin had misunderstood. He might feel that this training method made him feel a little uncomfortable. Cruel, thus sympathizing with Runsheng's situation.
But in fact, Li Zhuiyuan was not only unsympathetic, but also appreciated the intuitive training effect.
Uncle Qin pointed at Runsheng, "When I was at Uncle Li's house, I saw that this boy was extraordinary. Unfortunately, at that time, I couldn't even teach you much."
"Uncle Qin, can I ask you something?"
"Xiaoyuan, you want to ask me how I failed in crossing the river in the first place, right?"
"Yes."
>
“When the time comes, I will tell you, I don’t Hypocrisy, but I’m counting on you to avenge those guys for me.”
“No, Uncle Qin, you misunderstood, I’m too lazy to avenge you.” Li Zhuiyuan pointed at Run. You should still count on him.”
"Okay, I understand. I'll give it to him and practice until death."
