The breeze roars the rivers and lakes

"Don't you have eyes, get out of here!" An angry shout interrupted Lin Yu's reverie.

Looking for the reputation, I saw Fairy Chi Lian shouting angrily at a ragged little beggar.

Lin Yu glanced at the little beggar, his face changed slightly, then he got up gently and walked over.

Seeing Lin Yu coming, Fairy Chilian gave him a hard look, and then left with a face full of anger.

Lin Yu helped the little beggar up and said softly, "little brother, are you okay?"

Under the fluffy and messy hair of the little beggar steamed bun, a pair of pitiful eyes were exposed, and there was hardly any bloodshot on his yellow and thin face. He shook his head weakly and said, "Thank you, sir. I haven't eaten for three days and nights..."

When he said this, he suddenly knelt down with a plop, and begged with tears: "Master, please take pity on me, give me something to eat, even a few steamed buns, I will starve to death No request, it's just that my poor mother is very old and sick, and she hasn't eaten for three days and three nights."

Those who heard the words of the little beggar were moved, and some kind people were still secretly wiping their tears.Lin Yu felt a little ashamed at this time, there was only one door away, there were so many hungry and poorly clothed people outside, and he was always worried about the next meal, but he was here to eat and drink, It is really inappropriate to enjoy the delicacies of mountains and seas.

Lin Yu greeted the shopkeeper, brought a roast chicken over, and handed it to the little beggar.

Before Lin Yu could speak, he saw the little beggar staring at the roast chicken with bare eyes, and swallowed his saliva from time to time.

But after he took the roast chicken, he didn't gobble it up as ordinary people imagined, but he wrapped it neatly and held it tightly in his hands.Then he showed a pale smile and said to Lin Yu: "Master, can you give me some steamed buns?"

A trace of puzzlement flashed in Lin Yu's black eyes, and he pointed to the roast chicken and asked, "Is this roast chicken not enough for you?"

Before Lin Yu's words fell, the little beggar shook his head vigorously and said, "No, it's just that my mother is so old and has never eaten such a delicious roast chicken. I want to take it back and give it to my mother , I want the steamed buns to be eaten by myself.”

Lin Yu's eyes were slightly moist, and he said: "you can eat as much as you want, if it's not enough, there's still the old lady's share. I'll ask the shopkeeper to prepare it later."

The little beggar was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked, "Really?"

Lin Yu nodded slightly and said, "really, let go of your stomach and eat!"

When he said this, Lin Yu called the shopkeeper again and asked him to prepare some more roast chicken and some steamed buns for the little beggar, and also ordered him a pot of tea by the way, so as not to choke when he devoured it for a while.

After watching the little beggar gobble up the whole roast chicken, Lin Yu handed over the tea again and said, "Don't choke, drink some tea, it will help digestion."

The little beggar didn't even bother to say a word of thanks, so he threw his neck back and started drinking.

When he was almost done drinking, Lin Yu asked, "little brother, your accent doesn't seem like it's from the local area. Where are you from?"

The little beggar wiped his mouth with his dirty sleeve, and said, "I escaped from Henan. I originally wanted to come to Huaxi City to join a distant relative, but that relative only gave us a few copper coins, so they put us away." We drove out..."

After listening to the little beggar's words, Lin Yu's expression became slightly angry, and he asked, "Didn't the imperial court allocate 150 million taels of disaster relief money? Why are so many victims fleeing from their hometown?"

The little beggar shook his head, and said helplessly: "The imperial court allocated relief money, but it was not 150 million taels, but 15 taels. The rice soup boiled by the officers and soldiers in the porridge shed, a large pot of soup, only a few Ten grains of rice, the clear ones can be used as a mirror, and they are only released after three days, if there is no other way, who would want to leave their hometown and live a life that is worse than a dog."

Lin Yu clenched his fists angrily, and said secretly in his heart: hateful, hateful, this group of parents and officials openly embezzled the life-saving money of the victims, and even directly took away as much as [-]% of it, which is really extremely hateful.

After thinking about this, Lin Yu took out another ingot of silver from his body, handed it to the little beggar, and said, "for this little silver, I will hire a doctor for your mother, and get some medicine."

The little beggar took the silver, and after thanking him a thousand times, he hugged the big fat roast and the silver ingot that Lin Yu had prepared for him tightly, as if he was carrying a ten-generation baby in his arms, very satisfied After leaving, he muttered to himself from time to time: "I really met a living Bodhisattva, now my mother is saved."

Looking at the figure of the little beggar going away, Lin Yu's mood can be calm for a long time. He just can't figure out, whether to bring these extraneous things with him in life or death, those officials who have studied the books of sages hard Don't you understand this truth?Could it be that they have completely forgotten Confucius's theory of benevolence and rituals and Zhu Shengren's way of governing the country?

Lin Yu shook his head helplessly, and after a long sigh, he returned to his seat.But at this moment, he could no longer arouse the slightest interest in the delicious food and wine on the table.

Seeing Lin Yu's gloomy face, Liu Ziqing blinked her big watery eyes, and asked a little puzzledly: "The prostitute, what's the matter with you, why are you frowning, do you have something on your mind?"

Lin Yu sighed again, and said: "It's nothing, it's just that I just saw the people in the disaster area fleeing here, and I can't help but feel emotional."

Ximen Piaoxue smiled sadly, and said: "Brother Lin's chivalrous heart, I really admire my little brother, but the unsatisfactory things in life, seven or eight out of ten, this is the destiny, not man-made, so why should you worry about it?" Woolen cloth?"

Lin Yu's expression changed slightly, and he said with a clear smile: "Brother Ximen is right, I'm the little brother who is bothering others. I punish myself with a cup, and I do it first as a respect." The wine is all in the stomach.

Ximen Piaoxue smiled lightly, and asked, "Where does Brother Lin want to go next?"

Lin Yu pondered for a moment, shook his head with a smile, and said: "It's not sure yet, maybe I will go back to Huashan, maybe I will go directly to the disaster area of ​​the Yellow River, or I may stay here, in short, it is possible! "

Before Ximen Piaoxue could continue to ask, Lin Yu grabbed the words and asked, "I don't know, brother Ximen, what do you want to do?"

Ximen Piaoxue lightly drank a glass of wine, and replied: "I was ordered by my father to come to participate in Huashan Sword Discussion, but I didn't expect to encounter so many accidents. I have been away from home for many days, and I plan to go home soon look."

Lin Yu looked a little stunned, and asked, "Oh, now that the imperial court and the Central Plains Wulin are on the verge of reconciliation, and the Wulin General Assembly will be held soon, doesn't Brother Ximen want to join in the fun?"

Ximen Piaoxue shook her head gently, and said with a smile: "Brother Lin, you are a smart person, so you naturally know the reason, so why bother to ask?"

Lin Yu lightly drank a glass of wine, and responded with a smile: "Brother Ximen thinks the same as I do, and I will punish myself with another drink."

Ximen Piaoxue shook her head with a smile, and said, "Since there is a penalty, how can I have a glass of wine?"

Lin Yu asked with a smile, "in brother Ximen's opinion, how many cups of punishment is enough?"

Ximen Piaoxue stretched out three fingers, and said with a sinister smile, "At least three cups!"

Lin Yu responded very readily, and said, "Okay, I will punish myself with three cups as brother Ximen wants."

The conversation between Lin Yu and Ximen Piaoxue, except for A Feng, Liu Ziqing and Yan Yun were all confused. Yan Yun had just arrived and knew that the few characters in front of him were not something he could provoke, so he He didn't dare to ask more questions, but just kept his head buried in drinking.

But Liu Ziqing was different. Before Lin Yu finished her three glasses of wine, she pouted her pink mouth and asked, "thief, what are you talking about? I don't understand anymore? "

Lin Yu smiled and said: "Brother Ximen and I will talk about the Jianghu. It's only natural that you, a girl, don't understand."

Liu Ziqing pouted, rolled her eyes at Lin Yu again, and said pretending to be angry: "what's wrong with the girl's house, who was that just now, when you were here, you and Ximen Piaoxue seemed to be very afraid of her."

Lin Yu always thought that Liu Ziqing was a silly girl who didn't know anything, but she didn't expect her to observe so carefully just now. Although he wasn't really afraid of Fairy Chilian, he was more or less unwilling to deal with her. What's more, she and her master have now defected to Dongchang.

But as for Ximen Piaoxue, who has always been proud and arrogant, Lin Yu doesn't know why he is so afraid of Fairy Chilian, but from the expressions and eyes of the two of them just now, Lin Yu can guess some reasons. At least today's drink is no accident, it is very likely that the two of them have arranged in advance.

"Crazy thief, why don't you speak anymore? Did I hit the mark and have nothing to say?" Liu Ziqing blinked her big watery eyes and asked mischievously.

Lin Yu and Ximen Piaoxue looked at each other in embarrassment. They didn't know how to respond. A Feng who was next to him felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked Yan Yun: "Brother Yan Yun, your sister has delivered Go to Mount Emei to practice martial arts, you like to wander the rivers and lakes so much, why doesn't your father let you learn from a teacher?"

Yan Yun scratched his head embarrassingly, and said: "My father originally planned wholeheartedly to let me get the honor in the exam, the glory of the family, but my talent is stupid, I failed the exam three times in a row."

Lin Yu suddenly took over the conversation and asked, "then do you want to be like your sister, wandering the rivers and lakes?"

Yan Yun was taken aback by the question, and nodded hastily after a while, saying: "Of course I think about it, I'm not afraid of your jokes if I say it, I dream that if one day, I want to be like my sister, I will be a big brother." Hero, let's make a splash in the rivers and lakes."

After saying this, he scratched his head again, and asked Lin Yu puzzledly: "Brother Lin, didn't you object to letting me enter the rivers and lakes just now, why did you change your mind now?"
