Chapter 54

Yang Guo walked along the way, thinking about what Shen Yuanjing said, and he was very confused. He still felt that the proposal was incredible, and he was a little excited in his heart. When he was home, he didn't come up with anything.

He was timid in his hometown. He was less than a year away from home, but the more he walked, the slower he walked. He was afraid that his mother would suddenly rush out and scold or shed tears, and he also hoped that she would shout "Baoer".

But when he saw a big lock on the door, his heart skipped a beat. He quickly jumped into the yard and pushed open the door. The tables and chairs in the hall were still neatly arranged like he left home.

He breathed a sigh of relief, stepped forward and picked up the teapot, and poured water to drink. When the teapot left the table, he was stunned and stared at the thick circle of marks on the table, not daring to speak.

After a long time, he touched the table and the chair, which was covered with dust. He looked up at the portrait of Zhenjun Qingwei hanging on the wall. The same was true. He had not been cleaned for a long time.

He rushed into his mother's room like crazy, with the curtain hanging on both sides of the bedside, and the quilts were neatly folded. Not only were they covered with dust, but they could also see mold spots. You could tell at a glance that they had not been opened for a long time.

He pulled open the cabinet and there were several pieces of clothing inside, and the rest were piled up on the side in a mess without tidying up. It was obvious that Mu Nianci was leaving in a hurry.

Now he was really panicked, and rushed out of the house and ran to the village. Soon, he saw a sister-in-law holding a bamboo basket in the field and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Aunt Niu Er, have you seen my mother?"

The woman was coming back from picking vegetables, and suddenly rushed to the front. She was startled and was about to curse. When she looked up, she saw that it was a pretty boy frowned. She looked at her carefully and said relievedly: "It turns out that it is the little kid of the Yang family, I'm scared to death."

She patted her chest and said angrily: "Where did you go, you dead child? Are you going to kill your mother? She couldn't see you, so she looked for you like crazy, day and night, and didn't even bother to eat, she was so haggard that she looked like she was unbearable. Oh, it was so pitiful!

We all helped to find it. I searched all the mountains and rivers around me, but I couldn't find you. There were those slutty people who said that you might be gone, either washed away by water or eaten by wild animals on the mountain. She didn't believe it. She went home to pack her clothes and went out to find you. We couldn't stop her. Oh, it's such a sin! The lock on your door was installed by the village blacksmith."

Aunt Niu Er wiped her tears and said, after she finished speaking, she seemed to be unsatisfied, so she stepped forward and slapped Yang Guo hard on the back.

Yang Guo's eyes were confused and unprepared, and he was beaten and staggered. She felt distressed again, so she stepped forward and grabbed it, saying, "Forget it, it's good to come back. You can go to my house first, have dinner, go to the village chief's house to discuss it, and see if there is any news about your mother."

He shook his head and refused to eat, so he went to the village chief's house first. But the village chief was just an old man in the countryside. Even though he had more knowledge than the farmers and women, how could he be well-informed?

Seeing that Yang Guo couldn't ask anything, he immediately wanted to leave and go out to find Mu Nianci. Aunt Niu's eyebrows were raised and her waist was crossed and cursed again: "You dead child, you have never been a day without causing trouble since you were a child, and you have never been worried about your mother. It didn't count if you ran away before, but now you are going out again. If she comes back and can't see you, she will be really crazy..."

He was so angry that he couldn't raise his head. After a quick stop, he whispered: "Village Chief, Second Aunt, I'm really worried about my mother and can't sit down for a moment, so let me go out. She wants to come back later. Please tell her that you can go to Qingweiguan on Wudang Mountain to wait for me." After that, he gave a round of gifts.

Aunt Niu Er was still talking, but the village chief blocked it with one hand and said, "Are you talking about Wudang Mountain in Xiangyang?"

Yang Guo nodded, the village chief's eyes lit up, and he repeated: "Is it the Wudang Mountain where the god Qingwei lives?"

"You kid, can you go to be a Taoist priest? I tell you, your mother has worked hard..." Aunt Niu Er started nagging again. The village chief was so annoyed that he shouted "stop", interrupted him, and said:

"What a glory is it for the little kid of the Yang family to be attracted by the gods of Qingwei? What do you know, a woman? Besides, look at his outfit, how do you look like he wants to become a monk? And you are not going to be a monk?"

Aunt Niu Er looked at Yang Guo’s whole body carefully and said, “Oh, you seem to have grown taller. Although your face is a little darker, you look much stronger and you don’t suffer any hardships. Your mother will be happy after seeing it.”

The village chief hesitated for a while and said, "Then I can't let you go. You are young and I'm not at ease when I'm alone outside. I'd better stay in the village."

Yang Guo said: "I am so old, and when I go out, I will definitely take care of myself. The village chief, as well as all uncles and aunts, don't worry."

Seeing that everyone was still a little unbelievable, he looked around and walked to the table, and said, "I am not in vain on Wudang Mountain, but you can see." After that, he put his hand on the teapot and used his internal strength. After a while, a few traces of water vapor came out of the spout.

Everyone in the room exclaimed and talked everywhere. Soon after, only a "whimper" sound was heard, and then "gurgle" and the water vapor surged outward.

The village chief jumped up from the chair with a blushing face and asked excitedly: "This is the immortal method you learned in Wudang Mountain?" All kinds of noise in the house ended abruptly, and even the villagers with Aunt Niu had awesome expressions and were full of respect.

Yang Guo felt relieved and said, "It's nothing to learn just a little bit of a fur. Is the village chief willing to let me out now?"

The village chief said repeatedly: "Of course, of course, you have the ability passed down by the gods, and you can't go anywhere in the world. Your mother will definitely be happy when she sees it."

After saying that, he hesitated again, looked into the villagers, and said, "I don't know if you have learned the magic to cure diseases. You don't know, the third son of the Zhang family entered the city a few years ago and ran into a master. He asked someone to break his legs. Now he is still limping when walking."

When Yang Guo heard this, his blood was rising. The third child of the Zhang family was his childhood playmate. The two of them did a lot of bad things about snatching fish and stealing melons and chasing chickens and dogs. He said coldly: "Who did it?"

The voice scared the village chief. Seeing that his face was covered with dark clouds, he was afraid that he would seek revenge, so he stammered: "Don't worry about who it is, can we ordinary people still fight with the government?"

He said in a deep voice: "But it may not be possible. I can still be afraid of him." The village chief shook his head and smiled bitterly: "You have a god as your backer, so naturally you are not afraid, but we..."

Yang Guo felt sorry for his heart, lowered his head and was silent for a moment, then raised his head, his face turned firm, and said, "I... our Qing Micro has a little foundation at the foot of Wudang Mountain. Although everything is in trouble, as long as you work harder and have enough food and clothing, there is still no problem. If everyone can't make it through in the future, come to find me there."

The village chief reached out to touch his head and sighed softly: "It would be great to be able to fill your stomach again. Now the years are getting different every year, and the government's taxes are getting higher and higher year by year. If that day comes, we will join you. Don't just ignore us at that time."

Although Yang Guo saw that he was solemn, he was not moved at all. He knew that it was hard to leave his hometown, so he didn't say much and turned around and went to the Zhangsan family.

But he didn't understand medical skills, so he could only say to everyone: "The True Lord Qingwei acted as a vocation to eliminate wars and disasters, protect the safety of the country, and it was not his strength to cure diseases and save people. I can't do anything, either." He left some money and turned around and left.

He touched the city in the middle of the night, hanged the gentry who committed the crime, and killed the official who helped the evil, and then embarked on the way to find his mother.
