1.

From that time on, I already felt that Yu Shisan was definitely not someone I could control.

But I will think that one life is free. Why do I hope that another person can be controlled or controlled by me?

Those men who chased the beggar were completely shocked by Yu Shisan's ruthless move.

Perhaps, it was the first time they had seen a person who could sacrifice his own safety and kill his opponent. What was even more terrifying was that this opponent was not his life-and-death enemy.

The man with a beard on his face was seriously injured, but I saw that he seemed to be saved, so I pointed out his companions to carry him away.

When they left, blood dripped all over the ground, like many gorgeous little flowers blooming on the gray-brown ground.

I looked at the boss who bought shoes. His whole face was so scared that he lost his blood. When he saw me looking at him, he unconsciously took two steps back.

I began to be glad that I paid for the money to buy the duster because it was still stuck in the abdomen of the bearded man, and was carried away with his injured body.

But I regretted buying the duster. Because, I felt that I had become Yu Shisan's accomplice to hurt others. Although, at first, I didn't expect such a result.

The beggar seemed very happy. He knelt in front of me, smiled with luck on his face, and kowtowed to me repeatedly.

I helped him up and said to him, "It's not me who saved you, it's him." I pointed at Yu Shisan, but the beggar looked at Yu Shisan very afraid.

Yu Shisan didn't want the beggar to thank him at all. He just said lightly: "You owe me a life. Remember to return it to me in the future."

I said, "That person actually didn't want his life."

Yu Shisan said: "A person who wants to hit someone with a stick can have any result. Whether he dies or not is in his own hands. As long as the person who hits him uses a little heavier force, he may die even if he is dead."

I am not arguing with Yu Shisan. I think such a debate is meaningless. As long as nothing really happens, everything can only be speculation.

I didn't look familiar with the beggar, but if he could call me the leader of the gang, this means that he was not a beggar from Shaoxing.

I asked the beggar: "Did you come from Lin'an?"

The beggar nodded and said, "Yes."

I felt guilty. He still recognized me as his gang leader, but since I became their gang leader, I have never cared about their life or death. Even later, I almost forgot them.

I used to be a failed martial arts leader. That result made me very sad. But until now I realized that I was still a failed leader of the Beggars' Sect. Such a result made me feel even more unscrupulous.

I asked him: "How are the brothers of the Beggars' Sect?"

Before he could speak, his tears had already flowed down. He said that the world today is no longer the world of the past, and now the world is peaceful and stable and prosperous. However, the Beggars' Sect is still the same as the former Beggars' Sect. The brothers of the Beggars' Sect still live a life of wandering and begging everywhere.

I asked him: "Why did you come to Shaoxing?"

He said: "A few months ago, the court issued an edict that Lin'an Mansion was the palace, and begging on the streets was injustice and detrimental to the influence of the court. Therefore, all beggars on the streets in Lin'an, and those who give alms were thirty."

I wondered and asked, "Why do people give more food than beggars?" At that time, I thought the beggar had remembered it wrongly. However, he gave me an answer that could not be refuted.

He said: "There is no begging without alms. There is no killing without buying and selling."

2.

I told the beggar: "You try to inform the other brothers in the Beggars' Sect and let them wait for me at the foot of Tianmu Mountain outside Lin'an Mansion ten days later."

The beggar's eyes suddenly showed light. He agreed happily and almost jumped away.

I suddenly remembered that I didn't know his name yet, so I called him and asked, "What's your name?"

He stopped, bowed to me very seriously, and said, "My name is Ming Shaozhong."

The beggar is gone.

Yu Shisan asked me: "You want to go back to be the leader of the Beggars' Sect?"

I shook my head. Actually, I don’t want to be the leader of the Beggars’ Sect. The people of the Beggars’ Sect are everywhere and their information is the most informative. I gathered them together, but I just wanted to use them to help me find Shu Yao.

I know that as the leader of the gang, such behavior is really shameful. But I think that as a father, there is nothing wrong with my approach.

Yu Shisan's steps were very fast. I told him to walk slowly.

Yu Shisan refused, and he said, "The road is very long, some are faster, so I can see my sister earlier."

The road is indeed long, but no matter how fast he walks and walks as fast as he can, he doesn't know where the end is.

When we arrived at Lu Mansion, it was noon. A faint fragrance of food floated out of the courtyard wall of Lu Mansion, which was not too high.

Yu Shisan and I were both hungry. So we didn't have time to go to the main entrance to report, found a place with the strongest smell of rice, and climbed over the wall and entered Lu Mansion.

As soon as we landed, what we saw was not delicious food. It was an old lady staring at me and Yu Shisan with horror eyes.

She didn't give me a chance to defend me at all, and she screamed "Ah" and shouted loudly: "Come on, there's a thief!"

Soon, we rushed from all directions with knives, guns and sticks. A thin old man with a butler looked like a steward, hiding behind a group of strong servants, asked me: "Who is so bold that he dares to trek into the Lu Mansion in broad daylight?"

I said, "I'm here to look for Lu You."

"Shut up!" The old lady who was already full of horror, suddenly became confident as she saw more and more people behind her. She pointed at me and shouted, "How could You'er recognize you as irreverent..."

At the end of her speech, her voice became smaller and smaller, as if the confidence that was raised due to the large number of people and the power fell down. She stared at me, looked up and down, and suddenly she looked angry and said, "It turned out to be you! Five years ago, you climbed over the wall from here and were hit by your old body. Unexpectedly, five years have passed and you haven't taken the right path yet."

I have always been a righteous person. But what Lu’s mother said made me very ashamed. I knew it was wrong to overturn someone’s wall, but I was hungry, but I had no quicker solution.

Fortunately, at this time, Lu You appeared.

When he hurried out from the toilet by the east wall, his hand was still tightening his slightly loose waist seal.

He peeled off the crowded crowd and met me. The moment we looked at each other, we were stagnant in a flash, and then the joy of reunion.

"Brother Ji!"

"Brother Lu!"

An old friend whom I haven't seen for many years is like the Cowherd and Weaver Girl who meets on the magpie bridge. In front of everyone, four hands hold each other tightly.

There is no tears falling from the Chinese Valentine's Day. There is only the joy of everything being spoken of.

Lu's mother was not happy. She coughed heavily, as a warning to his son who was ill-behaved.

Lu You received a warning and hurriedly let go of my hand, bowed respectfully to his mother, and said, "Don't blame me, my mother, this is mine..."

"I know it." Lu

My mother said angrily, "He was like this five years ago. Unexpectedly, five years have passed and he has not made any progress at all."

Lu You looked embarrassed. His temples were already gray, but in front of his mother, he was still like a child who could not escape his mother's blame. He whispered: "It scared my mother."

It has been five years. Lu’s mother’s body looks much older than she was back then.

Everyone will grow old, but when your years of aging suddenly appears in front of you, you can deeply feel how terrible it is to grow old.

Because, it can make a terrible person less terrible.

Lu's mother did not talk nonsense like she used to. She turned her head without saying a word, walked through the servants who were surrounded, and disappeared from the corner of the yard with the help of her maid.

3.

After Lu’s mother left, Lu You took me into his study.

The furnishings in his study are still the same as Li Xiaoqian and I came out of date back then. But the faded red paint on the tables and chairs shows me the years.

Lu You stared at Yu Shisan for a while and asked, "This one is..."

I said, "His name is Yu Shisan. He is my...apprentice."

Yes, it's an apprentice. Although I don't want him to call me Master, I like to call him my apprentice. Because this will make me feel that my legacy has been passed down and that I have to wait for a new level and have improved again.

Yu Shisan did not refuse. He was still as plain as water, calm and unpredictable, making people unable to guess what he was thinking.

Lu You smiled slightly and said, "You have accepted all your apprentices." He turned around and filled us with tea and asked, "Where is Junior Sister Yue'er? Why didn't she come with you?"

The joy of reunion was diluted by a sentence.

My mood regained heavy again, and I said, "Xiaoyue is dead."

Lu You's hand shook suddenly, and the hot tea poured on his hand, and he seemed to be unaware of it.

"What, why is this happening?" Lu You asked, "What happened?"

I endured the pain in my heart and told Lu Hao again what I had experienced during this period. Finally, I said, "I came to you this time because I hope you can help me find my daughter."

I turned my head and saw Yu Shisan staring at me. I added: "And his sister, Yu Qing'er."

Lu You was silent.

I felt that he seemed to reject me. But I also felt that he should have no reason to reject me.

He has always been a chivalrous character. Back then, he went to Dali Temple with us to rob the prison, and then I knew that he was a person who could sacrifice himself for his friends.

However, this time, Lu You sighed deeply. He said, "It's not that I don't want to, it's just... Brother Ji, you're not the time."

I was surprised and asked, "Why isn't the time?"

Lu You said: "The scientific expedition is approaching, and I haven't passed the exam for ten years. Now, my mother is getting older and her health is getting worse every year. This year, I don't want to disappoint her anymore."

I understand.

I didn't say anything more. The maid from the Lu family knocked in and brought in all kinds of sumptuous meals. But they were boring in my eyes.

It turns out that people's hearts will change. Lu You, back then, disdained the government and the world, and only had the world in his heart. At that time, he was a knight, and for his friends, he had nothing to do.

However, people's hearts will not change. At that time, Lu You was a filial son. He followed his mother's orders and was still taking the exams even if he was unwilling to do so. He gave up on himself and even Tang Wan. Now, he gave up on me. Perhaps it was not because he had changed, but because he was still the filial son.
