The old woman was about to serve a meal with Ji Ruge. Ji Ruge waved her hand and took a pair of chopsticks.
"I've already eaten. I'll just eat some vegetables. Sit down and tell me first how those Taoists are going to make things difficult for you, so that I can find a way to deal with them."
Xiaoyu lowered her voice as much as possible, making it sound like someone in her thirties.
The old man's family was submissive and stood at the table, not daring to sit down.
The old man respectfully said to Ji Ruge: "Strong man, please eat first, and we will eat later."
Ji Ruge smiled slightly, without being polite, picked up the chopsticks in his hand, and tasted the side dishes on the table one by one.
"Well, it's delicious." Ji Ruge praised the old man and said, "My father-in-law, your stir-fry is delicious." He tried the side dishes on the table one by one and was satisfied. He was greedy, but he didn't really want to eat their food. Yes, he slowly put down his chopsticks and sat upright.
"Okay, let's talk about how those Taoists are going to make things difficult for you." Ji Ruge looked at the old man and said.
The old man bowed respectfully and asked, "Don't you know the honor of a strong man?"
Ji Ruge said: "It will be bad for you if you know. It doesn't matter if you don't tell me. How did you get made things difficult by that Taoist priest? Just tell me quickly."
The old man could only say slowly:
"Strong man, this little old man is a woodcutter on the outskirts of Yangzhou. He is called Ge Quan. This is my wife Zhong's daughter Ge Ying.
Our family relies on collecting firewood to make a living. A few days ago, the Zhao family, a wealthy businessman in Yanzi Lane, asked for a lot of firewood, and the old man could not bring enough firewood alone. In order to save time, he took his daughter to Yanzi Lane to deliver firewood.
Unexpectedly, that day in Yanzi Lane, I met a group of passing Taoists carrying long swords.
I took my daughter and passed by them, and the group of Taoists came towards me. Who knew that it was just a matter of one glance, and the little girl was attracted by the old Taoist.
The old man was originally a simple farmer who lived in poverty, so how could he attract attention? When passing by, I didn't notice anyone following me.
When we arrived home, we were followed by two little Taoist priests, two of the three who had just gone.
At that time, they followed us all the way out of the east gate tower of the city and headed towards the countryside. I told them that they were just along the way, and they turned out to be looking for us.
They said that his master saw that our family was going to be in danger, so he sent two of his disciples to let us know.
I believed it to be true. When they explained in detail what they were doing with the little girl to solve the problem, I realized that the old Taoist priest had fallen in love with the little girl and wanted to beat her up.
The old man didn't agree with anything, and the two Taoist priests didn't say much that day. They only said that they had to go to Huatan Temple for urgent matters that day and would come back to visit them in a few days.
No, this is today.
In the past few days, my family was worried that this person would come again, so we often stayed behind closed doors.
My wife and I are setting up a fire to cook..."
Ji Ruge replied: "Okay, I can clearly see what happened next from the window. Do you know the name of the old Taoist?"
The old man replied, "I heard the white-faced Taoist priest say that their master's name is Luo Congsheng. He is the master of the Anning Temple in Wuxi. He wants to help our family solve the disaster and requires us to never let other outsiders know. , otherwise you will be rude to our family. Hey, warrior, tell me, what kind of relief is this? It is obviously bringing disaster and sending it away."
The old man said through gritted teeth and clenched his fists deeply.
After hearing this, Ji Ruge was sure that Luo Congsheng was coming to run wild in this farmhouse, secretly thinking that this old beast was nothing.
Ji Ruge took a look at their family and saw that Ge Ying had a round face and delicate features. Even though she was dressed in simple clothes, she could not conceal her beauty.
Ge Ying was stared at by a thirty-year-old man. She was a little embarrassed and did not dare to say anything.
Ji Ruge looked at Ge Ying and had an idea, and said, "Mr. Ge, do you know when the old thief will come to your door?"
The old man replied: "It is March 16th now. The Taoist said that March 20th is an auspicious day, suitable for resolving disasters. He asked my daughter to use the money to buy some nice clothes. On the morning of March 21st, his master He will come to our house in person. These three little Taoist priests are all so capable, and their master is even more powerful. How can we, a family of three, be his master's opponent? Hey..."
Ji Ruge replied: "Don't worry, old man. Now that I'm here, I will naturally help you. By the way, since they gave your daughter money to buy clothes, then you just do it."
After hearing this, the old man thought that the strong man had changed his mind and stopped helping their family. He frowned and said in surprise: "Strong man, what do you mean by this?"
Ji Ruge said:
"I already have an idea to help you, just do as I tell you. On March 20th, you will pretend to obey that person and ask this girl Ge Ying to dress up beautifully. Wait for him to come to your door.
However, it was not Miss Ge who was inside the bed curtain in the boudoir, but me.
Miss Ge Ying, all you have to do is lead the traitor into the room, and you will hide in the room. I will sit on your bed and wait for the old traitor to come and have a good fight with him. "
After Ji Ruge finished speaking, he asked again: "I wonder if there is a hiding place like a cabinet in the girl's room? Besides, this method has to stay on the girl's bed, which is very presumptuous."
The old man took the words and replied for his daughter: "There is an old cabinet at home, which was left by my father. It is just a good place to hide. As long as the strong man can save the little girl, there is no need to worry about these etiquette. The little old man's family is very grateful and will treat it as a cow or a horse." To repay the great kindness.”
After the old man finished speaking, he changed his mind and asked again: "Hey, strong man, if you attack that traitor, there is no guarantee that he will not come again. Our family cannot withstand his torment."
Ji Ruge smiled slightly and said, "I have a way to prevent him from causing trouble to you again. Just do as they ask. I will come here early to help you on March 20th."
When the old man and his family saw that Ji Ruge was confident, they didn't know whether to be happy or worried, so they hesitated and replied: "It all depends on the strong man's orders."
Ji Ruge got up and went out, replying: "Don't tell anyone that I have been here. I will come to help you on March 20th." After he finished speaking, he stepped on the bamboo forest at the door, flew up, and performed Qinggong. went.
The old man's family sent him out. Seeing that the strong man had such skill, they felt relieved and bowed several times to the bamboo forest at the door to show their gratitude.
The family then returned to the dining table with peace of mind and served the meal.
Ji Ruge purposely showed off this skill of lightness in order to reassure the old man and his family, and to prevent the little old man from having any random thoughts and mischief, and to give them a reassurance.
The reason why he didn't tell them that he was going to kill Luo Congsheng and a few stinky Taoist priests was because he was worried that the old man would be afraid of lawsuits and would not dare to ask for his help.
When the time comes, he hides on Ge Ying's bed, and when Luo Congsheng approaches and lets his guard down, he kills him with a sword.
It is true that the dead will not come back to cause trouble for the old man and his family.
