"Lu Chun, how many times have I told you, how wonderful it would be to be your waiter! Reading these useless medical books is of no use. You are just destined to be a waiter, and you still want to turn around?"
In the courtyard, a broad-shouldered woman was pouring a basket of books into the stove pit, mumbling something. Next to her was a young man with tears in his eyes, biting his lip. Dare not say anything.
Lu Chun's aunt had a bad temper. She often teased her and took it out on herself. Unexpectedly, this time she went even further and burned all the books she had worked so hard to save money for in front of her eyes.
"Aunt...I...I'm just doing it for the old lady...I'm not wrong!" Lu Chun saw his books turning into ashes one by one, and his heart hurt like a knife.
"You are an eyesore to me! You are at fault! I hate these sour things the most. What the hell, a waiter pretending to be an educated person?" The woman pointed at Lu Chun and cursed, her messy hair looking like a bird's nest. As if it was almost upside down on her head.
She felt so upset just by doing this that she actually threw the book basket directly into the fire. The fire was pressed down by the woman, and the fire spread from all directions in an instant, directly burning a piece of her hair.
The woman screamed and hurriedly hid aside. Then she poured out all her resentment on Lu Chun. She pointed her finger at Lu Chun's forehead and said viciously: "I blame you for this worthless little bastard! I blame you for this worthless little bastard." Promising little bastard!"
"Mother, mother..." While the woman was scolding, a voice suddenly came from outside.
"Ouch! My good son is back!" The woman who was angry just a second ago burst into laughter upon hearing this, and shouted towards the door: "Tong'er! My Tong'er is back!"
"Mom, what are you doing?" As the voice gradually approached, a young man with a somewhat similar appearance to Lu Chun walked in. He saw the scorched black mass in the courtyard and wrinkled his nose. "Mom, what is so smelly?"
"Hey...it's not your cousin's crappy books! They are infested with moths at home...they are dirty and annoying!" The woman pinched her nose with a look of disgust.
"That's not a borer... that's a silverfish..." Lu Chun argued unwillingly.
"Fish? What kind of fish?" The woman was stunned when she heard the words, and then said with a sarcastic face, "I think you are reading a book and you are stupid! Look at your little potential, what else can you do besides reading, look at my Lu Tong , I have made friends with a group of famous families at a young age, follow them... I will definitely become prosperous in the future, how can I be like you, who is so unlucky!"
"Mom, he is also my cousin, why should we be acquainted with him?" The man named Lu Tong just looked at Lu Chun on the ground, and then hurriedly persuaded his mother: "Mother, my cousin is Brother, he has lofty ambitions! If one day he becomes famous, we will have to rely on his authority!"
Although Lu Tong looked like he was trying to save himself from a siege, his expression was no less sarcastic than the woman's.
"Just him? He can't even compare to the little finger of our little boy, and there is that old immortal, sooner or later you will get out together!" The woman finally mocked, maybe she was a little tired, so she didn't talk to Lu Chun. , turned to look at Lu Tong and asked, "Tong'er, what's wrong with you coming back this time?"
Lu Tong's impatience flashed across his face, and then he put on a smile: "Mom, I recently met a friend, and he said he could ask an acquaintance to introduce me to a sect. I came back to tell you this. News!"
"Oh? Is there such a good thing?" When the woman heard the words, she burst into sharp laughter: "The children in our family are promising, and they will become immortal cultivators. Unlike some people, they can only Become a waiter."
"Mother... mother..." Lu Tong did not echo the words this time. Instead, he pulled the woman's clothes and whispered: "Mother, although the acquaintance didn't say much, I still feel that I can't trouble her in vain. Can you Give me some more money and let me..."
"Money? How much more do you want? Didn't you take a lot from doing things a few days ago?" The woman looked nervous when she heard this.
"That's different, mother! I used to help my friend's shop with the money, but I really can't get it out now..." Lu Tong hesitated for a long time before he came up with an excuse.
"Lu Tong! Can you hurry up? I won't care if you keep dragging your feet!" Just as Lu Tong was explaining, an impatient voice suddenly came from outside the door.
"Mom! What should we do? My friends are all impatient..." Lu Tong also broke into a cold sweat and urged in a low voice.
"Don't be anxious, kid, think about it...think about it..." The woman was so anxious that she stamped her feet, and then suddenly looked at Lu Chun with an evil look, and said viciously: "You and that old guy eat ours and live in ours." , it’s time to shed some blood! Do you have any money? Hand it over to me quickly!"
Lu Chun frowned when he heard this, thinking that this ancestral house originally belonged to the old man. It was obviously his aunt who sold the house and land for Lu Tong. In the end, she squeezed in with nothing, but now she is so shameless in trying to occupy the magpie's nest. .
However, he was often away from home, and the old lady was in poor health. If he didn't help, he might be abused. He could only grit his teeth and take out the money he had worked so hard to earn.
The aunt couldn't wait to grab it and cursed, "You still know how to appreciate it!" Then she handed it to Lu Tong and turned around to leave. Lu Tong took the money as a matter of course, without saying a word of thanks. He handed the money to the people who had been waiting outside with a smile, and then followed behind him.
The fire in the courtyard was as bright as the sun, but Lu Chun's heart was very cold. Although he hurriedly put out the fire, the entire book basket had been burned to the ground, and the only thing left was the incomplete book. Just a few words.
Lu Chun tremblingly picked up the blackened paper and saw only two words left in it: "Goddess".
Lu Chun gritted his teeth and remembered the word "Silverfish Three Food Gods", which turned into this thing, called Pulse Watch; the night reflected the stars in the sky, and the stars immediately descended. You can ask for Huan Dan, take this water and drink it, and your bones will change and your body will rise immediately.
Although he couldn't rely on this pulse to seek the Huandan and be reborn, he hesitated whether he could use the ashes in front of him to blind his heart and give up the old relationship.
Just when he was feeling discouraged, he suddenly felt someone approaching from behind, and a palm fell on his shoulder. Lu Chun looked up and saw the old lady looking at him with a smile.
"Old lady! You...can you stand up?" Lu Chun's eyes were full of tears, and he hugged the old lady excitedly, but as soon as he took action, his hug was empty.
"Old lady?" Lu Chun looked at his empty arms, but found that the old lady had retreated into the room and was looking at him calmly.
Lu Chun followed the house by accident, but heard a muffled bang behind him. He turned around and saw that the door was suddenly closed. When he turned around again, he saw that the surroundings were dark and everything in the house was dark. They all disappeared, leaving only a pale face staring straight at him.
"Old Master..." Lu Chun subconsciously reached out and touched it, but only felt a pain in his hand. His eyes suddenly became brighter. When he looked carefully, he saw that his sleeves were on fire.
"Ouch!" Lu Chun felt pain and quickly flapped his sleeves, finally not burning his palms. He wiped the sweat from his face and turned around to look, only to realize that he was still in the middle of the group of rocks, and the bonfire was still hot. Only Yunlang opposite was leaning on the ground, already sleeping properly. intoxicated.
"Hey..." Lu Chung was about to speak, but hurriedly closed his mouth and muttered unhappily: "This guy is really mean-spirited. He clearly said that he would be my guard during the break, but he slept better than anyone else!"
Because the nightmare just now was so real, Lu Chun didn't feel sleepy at all. Now that Yun Lang was already asleep, he stretched himself and stood up, preparing to find a place to relax. But just when he stood up, he saw a figure lying on the stone opposite him. He had his hands on the stone and was staring at him. His pale face was very ferocious under the light of the fire, and he almost lost his temper. He became incontinent on the spot.
This man's appearance is not unfamiliar to me, he is Lu Chun's old lady!
Anyone who suddenly saw this situation in the middle of the night would be frightened. Fortunately, when the old man saw Lu Chun waking up, he just waved and disappeared in the light of the fire.
Lu Chun stood there with his mouth wide open and was surprised for a long time. When many mosquitoes discovered the moist and warm nests here, he made a few noises and then chased out in a flash.
"What are you doing here?" Lu Chun just came out of the fire, and it took him a while to get used to it before he could clearly see the black figure not far away, and said with an unkind expression.
"Jie Jie Jie... After all, I am also your old lady, can't you look at my good grandson?" The man laughed strangely, and there was an unpleasant friction sound in his mouth.
"That's enough!" Lu Chun growled when he heard this, then looked back worriedly, then lowered his voice and said coldly: "You guy...when will you give me back the old lady!"
"Give it back to you? I can give it back to you at any time. Don't you want it to be alive or dead? Jie Jie Jie..." The person twisted his neck and sneered.
"Damn it! Don't forget what you said! As long as I follow your instructions, you will help me save the old lady... Don't lie to me!" Lu Chun gritted his teeth.
"Of course I remember what I said... But why didn't you bring what I wanted?" The visitor looked at Lu Chun up and down, and then said coldly.
"I encountered some situations, I...I made a mistake..." Lu Chun said unwillingly.
"Missed?" The visitor sneered, "Did you really miss... or did you regret it? As far as I know, Jin Tiaojiang's bloodline is unstable now. As long as you take the elixir, he will never be your opponent! If it weren’t for my current poor condition, how could I trust you, a loser! It seems... I’d better go find someone else!”
"Wait!" Lu Chun shouted hurriedly: "No...it's not him! Someone else is blocking me!"
