!
Shi Ji and Little Walnut galloped on their horses. The sun in the sky had already reached the southern sky.
Little Walnut looked up at the noon sun and said,""Brother Ji, we've been driving for more than two hours. Little Walnut is hungry, let's find a place to feed his head!”
Shi Ji thought for a moment and reined in his horse's head. He looked around and saw that there were mountains here. Where could there be a place to sell rice?
Shi Ji wanted to tell Little Walnut to walk a little longer, but he saw an old man carrying firewood walking over from the mountain path.
The old man had white hair and a youthful face, carrying a bundle of hard wood on his back as he walked like flying.
Shi Ji was stunned. He stared at the old man and thought, The old man was not an ordinary person. He must have many stories.
Shi Ji thought to himself and said to Little Walnut,"Let's get off the horse and ask the old woodcutter where there is a place to eat!”
The two of them got off their horses and stood respectfully by the roadside as they watched the old man walk down the mountain.
The old man walked up to Shi Ji and Little Walnut. Shi Ji bowed and said,""Old man Ankang, this lowly one is asking for directions!"
The old man saw that Shi Ji and Little Walnut looked like handsome dolls, so he asked,""The two kids are asking for directions?”
Shi Ji bowed again,"Qingyang Village's Baoyue Villa!"”
The old man put down the firewood on his back and let out a long hush. He frowned and said,"Baoyue Villa of Qingyang Village? Is it the Wei Residence?"
"Yes, yes, yes, it's the Wei Manor's official residence!" Shi Ji hurriedly replied and chattered on,"Let's go to Baoyue Manor and ask Doctor Wang Duanxiang to treat us!”
"Doctor Wang Duanxiang! Do you know Doctor Wang Duanxiang?" the old man asked casually.
"Gao Yong, the doctor of Baihe County, told me!”Shi Ji did not hide anything." We took in an old man who was on the verge of death and asked Doctor Gao Yong to save him. Doctor Gao Yong said that the old man was suffering from Sepsis and prescribed some medicine to maintain it. He said that if he wanted to wake the old man up, he had to go to the Qianwei Baoyue Manor to find Doctor Wang Duanxiang!”
A strange light flashed in the old man's eyes. He stared at Shi Ji and Little Walnut and asked,"What are the two of you doing? You took in an old man with Sepsis and even wanted to treat him!”
Little Walnut said bluntly," Grandpa, I won't hide it from you. We're beggars begging in Baihe County. Brother Ji is kind-hearted. He saw an old man lying on the street for some reason, so he carried him back to the cave where we lived to save him. Look, the two horses were specially borrowed to invite the doctor!”
The old man's eyes sparkled with tears. He stared at Shi Ji and asked,"Little brother, could it be that Baihe County's Stealing Verdure Glider?”
Shi Ji was dumbfounded. He stared at the old man without blinking and said,"You know about Stealing Grass as well? Who are you!"
The old man laughed and said,"Don't ask me who I am, kid. I'll only say that you two are going the wrong way!"”
Shi Ji and Little Walnut shouted at the same time,"I'm going the wrong way! What is this place?"
"This is Yao Mountain! Going forward is Yaoshan Town!" The old man said disdainfully. He took off a flat pot from his body, unscrewed the lid, and pressed the mouth of the flat pot to his mouth. He raised his head and made a few sounds.
Shi Ji thought the old man was drinking, so he asked,""Old man, are you drinking?"
The old man chuckled." The flat pot is filled with water. Drink a few times to relieve your thirst!"”
Shi Ji replied with an "oh" and forgot that he was asking for directions. He shifted the topic to the old man."Grandpa, are you going to use the firewood for yourself or sell it?”
"Naturally, it's for my own use!" The old man did not hide it and said," This old man has gone overboard alone. He has eaten his fill and the whole family is not hungry. He went up the mountain to gather firewood to make a fire and cook!”
The old man continued,"Doll didn't deny that it was Flying Above Grass, so it must be Flying Above Stealing Grass?”
The old man actually called out Shi Ji's name, and Shi Ji was flabbergasted.
The old man laughed and said,"It's rare for a beggar to have a benevolent heart even though he's called a thief god!"”
Shi Ji chuckled." Grandpa, you flatter me. I'm just doing a good deed!"”
"Good!" "Kid, are you going to Baoyue Villa in Qianwei?" the old man shouted.”
"Grandpa is right, we are going to the Baoyue Villa in Qianwei!" Shi Ji replied.”
Shi Ji used to call the old man old man, but now he changed it to grandfather, and his tone was much closer.
From the appearance of the old man, he should be over seventy years old. It was rare for a person to live to 70 years old. During the Song Dynasty, it was a golden rule.
After the old man finished speaking, he pointed forward and said,"Baoyue Villa should be facing east and then south in the front half, but you two ran to the north.”
As the old man spoke, he straightened his body and asked Shi Ji,"So the two kids came from Baihe County?”
"We're from Baihe County, Grandpa!"”
The old man straightened his body and pointed to the south."There is a shortcut from Baihe County to Qingyang Village, which is to take Qushan Gully, and another one is to cross Niushou Ridge to the east and then to the south. The road on Niushou Ridge was dozens of miles further than Qushan Gully, but the path was gentle and stable!”
The old man rambled on and suddenly grabbed Shi Ji's wrist.
Shi Ji didn't know what he was going to do and tried to get rid of him, but the old man's hand was like a vice that tightly pressed him down.
Shi Ji was also a person with martial arts. He could be said to be excellent at jumping on roofs and walking on walls, but his fighting skills were far from good.
The old man grabbed Ji's wrist and pressed it for a while. Seeing that he didn't break free, he chuckled and said,"Verdure Glider's qinggong isn't bad, but he doesn't have any martial arts!”
He paused for a moment to compose himself and said,"Which master taught Baby's lightness skill?"”
Shi Ji's eyes widened and he said,"I learned it without a teacher. I figured it out myself!"”
The old man was stunned. He looked at a big tree in front of him and said,"Climb that big tree. I want to see your qinggong!”
When Shi Ji saw the old man say this, he knew that he was an expert who wanted to take him as a disciple, so he jumped out fiercely like a rabbit.
Shi Ji ran to the bottom of the tree and did not climb. Instead, he jumped up and sat on the tree branch, his two feet hanging in the air!
The old man shouted,"Okay!" Let the time come. Shi Ji jumped down from the big tree and dashed in front of the old man.
The old man stared at Shi Ji and said,"The child's lightness skill is not bad. If you find a master to guide you, you will be even better!"”
The old man stared at Shi Ji and said,"Is the child willing to find a master to guide him?"”
Shi Ji already understood that the old man in front of him was a martial arts expert. He hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed."Master, please accept this disciple's bow!”
The old man helped Shi Ji up from the ground and laughed,"This old man has accepted you as his disciple. To be honest, this old man is Zhou Tong!”
"Master, you are Grandmaster Zhou Tong!”"Lin Chong, Lu Junyi, Shi Wengong, and Yue Fei are all your disciples?" Shi Ji said excitedly. Shi Ji was really lucky to be Master's disciple!”
"We were all moved by my kindness!”Zhou Tong sighed." A child who begs for food can take in an old man he has never met before, and even travel a long distance to hire a doctor for him. Such a person is worthy of being Zhou Tong's disciple!"”
"What about me?" Little Walnut shouted,"Grandpa Zhou has taken Brother Ji as his disciple, and He San also wants to take you as his master!"”
As Little Walnut spoke, he was about to kneel down and acknowledge Zhou Tong as his master when Zhou Tong pulled him up and said,""Take Shi Ji as your master. Zhou Tong can only have one last disciple before he dies!”
Little Walnut saw that there was no hope of becoming his disciple, so he shouted that he was so hungry that he could not hold the fire.
Zhou Tong smiled embarrassedly and said,"Go to this old man's place. This old man will feed the two of you!"”
Shi Ji divided Zhou Tong's firewood into two pieces and placed them on the back of the black horse for Zhou Tong to ride on. He and Little Walnut rode on the green horse.
The two horses and three people ran forward, and they suddenly found a horse in front of them with its head lowered and gnawing on grass.
Zhou Tong raised her arm to signal for Shi Ji to stop. Shi Ji reined in the horse's head and jumped down from the horse's back with Little Walnut. Zhou Tong had already taken large strides towards the horse that had its head lowered and was gnawing on grass.
Zhou Tong came to the horse that was gnawing on the grass and squatted down to check. He found a trace of blood spreading intermittently into the weeds.
Zhou Tong followed the trail of blood and found a burly man lying in the grass. He immediately cried out in surprise.
Shi Ji and Little Walnut ran over and saw that it was Zhong Da, the hero of Shaohua Mountain who was wanted by the government. They shouted at the same time,"Zhong Da…Master, that man is Zhong Da of Mount Shaohua…"
