Chapter 31

It is said that after Huayin realized who the strange old man was, she was so shocked that she couldn't speak for a long time, and then her blood boiled.Without shoes on, he opened the door and rushed into the second brother's room, dug the sprawled Hua Erlang out of the bed, insisting that he get up and go find someone with him.

After that, I searched for another four or five days, but still had no clue.

Huayin finally became furious, and made hundreds of portraits of the strange old man overnight, with a few large characters written on it: "Cow Stealer", and a line of small words below, this person stole a cow on a certain day and place in the year. Those who give clues to a certain place will be rewarded heavily.

Then Huayin found Hua Erlang and called a group of friends, and posted them all over the streets and alleys of Yaogu County. After finishing these, Huayin moved Zhang Taishi's chair to rest in the front yard of Huafu, waiting for news.

As a result, within half a day, people came to report intermittently, saying that they saw the cow thief in the painting at a certain time and place.As a result, Huayin went happily every time, and returned with a sigh.After running back and forth five or six times, it was Hua Erlang who recalled it first and said, "I'm afraid those cunning people who are greedy for petty profits deliberately made up nonsense to deceive us?"

Hua Yin was so angry after thinking about it, he quickly pasted a message on the gate of Hua Mansion: Anyone who lies and deceives will be escorted to the Yamen prison immediately.

In the second half of the day, it was completely quiet.

As the evening approached, all the elders and children of the Hua family were having dinner in the back hall, when they suddenly heard shouting and shouting in the front yard, Hua Dayi was not at home, Hua Rong was terrified, Hua Yin ran away with his clothes in front of him Go out, followed by Hanajiro.

I saw four or five people standing in the courtyard of the front hall. A wooden cage was placed among them, and a dirty person slept in it.When one of them saw Hua Yin coming out, he hurriedly cupped his hands to greet him, "May I ask if this little brother is the son of Master Hua's mansion?"

Hua Yin didn't look at the wooden cage any more, and hurriedly replied: "I'm the third in the family, everyone calls me Sanlang, this is my second elder brother, may I ask who you are?"

"Hello, third young master, I'm an official from Wang Yuanwai's family. You can just call me Wang Fu."

Hua Erlang and Hua Yin hurriedly saluted and greeted, "Wang Guan's family."

Wang Fusui explained the reason with a smile. It turned out that the family member saw the portrait of Hua Yin posted outside, and the more he looked at it, the more he looked like the crazy old man who stole free food from Wang Yuanwai's house in the blue sky and daylight a few days ago.So he uncovered the portrait and went back to compare it, and it turned out to be him.

Wang Yuanwai is a wealthy local family, although he is rich but has no power, he has long wanted to make friends with the official lord, but because he has no chance, he finally seized this opportunity and sent the official over to see if it is right.

Hua Yin stepped forward to take a closer look, it happened that the old man in the cage was looking up at her, the two looked at each other for a moment, Hua Yin was taken aback for a moment, but the old man made a surprise move and roared loudly, Hua Yin was startled Jumping, screaming and falling to the ground, the old man laughed out loud when he saw her in such a mess.

Seeing this, the servant hurriedly poked the old man with a wooden stick, and said bitterly: "I have been hungry for several days, how can I still be so energetic!"

Hua Yin hurriedly got up and told them to stop, then turned to Steward Wang and said that it was the person they were looking for in the house.

Steward Wang was overjoyed, and asked if he needed to be sent to an official.

Hua Yin greeted him a few times, and Wang Butler took the opportunity to say that they would like to invite Master Hua to go to a restaurant and a theater a few days later, Hua Yin responded in a false and honest way, and Wang Butler happily took him with him. People leave.

As soon as the person left, Hua Yin hurriedly opened the cage and released the strange old man, and said with a smile: "Master, why did you do this?"

The strange old man didn't look at Hua Yin, sniffed his nose, and ran directly to the backyard.

When Hua Yin rushed to the backyard, the strange old man was like a wild beast, squatting on the table, randomly grabbing wine, meat and food with his hands and stuffing them into his mouth. Zi Ruo, took his own bowl of rice and a plate of light side dishes, and ate slowly while standing aside.

The Hua family had just started eating a table of meals, but the old man ate it all up in a short while.

The sky was getting dark, Hua Rong had already gone back to the wing with the support of Nanny Zhang, but Hua Dayi hadn't come back yet, Dudu Hua Erlang accompanied Hua Yin and looked at the strange old hair.

I saw that he became more lively after eating and drinking. He was like a monkey for a while, a cow and a horse for a while, and after a while he was like their brothers and sisters—— or he sighed, or looked helpless.

Until the sun set and the night completely covered the earth, Huayin's expression was numb, but he watched the strange old man who was jumping up and down pretending to be a cat and dog suddenly quiet down, and his eyes darkened, staring at Huayin sharply, and said: "Why does the stinky girl call me a cow thief?"

Hua Yin paused and stammered: "Master, master, are you not crazy?"

"The water is almost boiling for me to take a bath."

After the strange old man cleaned up, he was once again in a detached and immortal manner, with a detached appearance of wandering clouds and wild cranes.He first went to Hua Yong's room, checked him carefully, then removed the stitches, prescribed a nourishing prescription again, and told Cui Hong, who took care of him, to get up and leave. The guest room prepared for him by the Hua family.

Hua Yin followed the whole process, talking a lot of nonsense, but the old man didn't answer a single word.Huayin is not in a hurry, after all, an expert, who doesn't have a bad temper.Just as he was comforting himself, unexpectedly, after cleaning his hands, the strange old man kicked off his shoes and went straight to bed and fell over.

Huayin was dumbfounded immediately, and pulled his arm and shook it violently, "Master, you can't count your words, you said you wanted to take me as an apprentice, why are you doing this!"

But no matter how Hua Yin shakes it, the old man will snore like thunder after a while.

Huayin wailed, and Hua Erlang, who was standing outside the door in fright, hurriedly pushed the door open and asked what happened.

Huayin pushed her second elder brother out of the room, ran directly to her bedroom, hugged the quilt and went back to the bedroom, then leaned back on the recliner in the room, with a look of resentment on her face, "Master, if you don't accept me today , I’m going to fight you to death.”

Hua Erlang lay on the crack of the door and watched for a while, then went back to sleep.

Later, Hua Dayi also came and touched Hua Yin's head. He remembered what Master Yuan said when he changed Hua Yin's fate, and he didn't dare to twist Hua Yin's wishes, so he just told her Don't freeze, and then went back to the room.When they got to the room, Hua Rong couldn't help sighing a few times.

After the third watch, Huayin suddenly heard a few noises, opened his eyes and saw that the old man opened the door, apparently to go out.

Huayin was overjoyed, jumped down to the ground, and said with a smile: "Master, do you want to sneak away?"

The strange old man ignored her and went straight out the door, Hua Yin hurriedly followed, the night was cold and freezing, so she hurriedly turned around and took a thin quilt to put on her body and chased after her.

The old man and the young man walked all the way, out of Huafu, and went westward for an unknown amount of time. The strange old man finally couldn't help but said, "When are you going to stay with me?"

Hua Yin looked up at the sky, full of concern, "It will be dawn soon, I am afraid that you will fall ill again during the day, Master, and you will be safer with my apprentice following you."

Hmph, if you're hard, I'll be soft, if you're soft, I'll wrap you up, if you're hard, I still have hundreds of tricks to deal with you, and I don't believe you, the weird old man, didn't get the trick.

The strange old man just looked at her fixedly, his expression couldn't be seen clearly in the dark, and it took him a while to say: "I'm not sick, I'm just poisoned."

"Poisoned?" Hua Yin was startled, but secretly happy: Oh!Great!Ken confides in me!better!come on!
The strange old man waved his hand at her, "Go away, I was just playing tricks on you, I won't accept apprentices."

But Huayin caught up with him, pulled his sleeve, tried his best to be cute and blinked, pretending to be charming and innocent, "Master, my father always said that one day is a teacher and life is a father. Since I called you "Master, you will be my family from now on. Even if you don't recognize me, but I will recognize you in my heart. It doesn't matter if you don't teach me medical skills, just let me take care of you and be filial to you. , I will repay your kindness for saving my elder brother."

The strange old man seemed to be a little moved, but he still had a stern face and said, "If it's about your elder brother, it's because you saved me first, and I'll repay you, it's nothing serious."

"No, no, it's Zheng Xiling who saved you, and it has nothing to do with me. So you saved my elder brother, and I owe you a favor for nothing." Huayin said this, but he thought in his heart, I It's up to you, you figure it out, right?

"The last time doesn't count, so you always saved me this time, right?"

"By mistake," Hua Yin answered quickly, and then said: "My father said that any kindness received by a drop of water should be repaid by a spring, not to mention the kindness of saving a life. If you don't repay it, you will be struck by lightning... ...Hey, master, wait for me."

So, Hua Yin followed the strange old man for a long time, until the old man finally couldn't bear it anymore and broke out, "I said, you look like a very smart person, why are you so circuitous? I said I don't want you." Repayment means that you don't want to repay, you go home and play, don't bother me!"

Hua Yin didn't speak, just silently followed behind him.I thought secretly in my heart, it's not possible, I didn't even use one percent of my skills in chasing King Jin'an back then, so you can't stand it? !At first glance, I have never been chased by a girl, hum!
I don't know when, the rooster crowed, and the sky suddenly dawned.And the strange old man also changed his appearance in an instant, and suddenly went crazy.

Hua Yin chased him for a long time, and then maybe he was hungry, and the crazy old man wanted to grab the buns from the bun shop, Hua Yin followed behind and hurriedly handed over the money.

The strange old man has been crazy for more than a year. When he wakes up at night, he can remember everything during the day.But during the day, he only vaguely remembered the crazy things during the day.After robbing the buns this time, I was very happy that I was not chased and beaten and scolded. Later, I robbed things a few times, and Huayin followed and paid for them.Once or twice, the crazy old man seemed to understand something, and the way he looked at Hua Yin was different.Later, Huayin asked the old man to eat a braised pig's head, and the old man completely obeyed.

At night, the strange old man recalled what happened during the day and felt that he had lost his adulthood, so he lashed out at Huayin.But he just couldn't leave, no matter what time of the night, as long as there was the slightest movement, Hua Yin would wake up, and as soon as he left, she would follow.But as soon as the day dawned, it completely fell over, and the crazy old man was completely attached to Huayin.

Repeatedly like this, after about ten days, the strange old man finally took the initiative to talk to Huayin after walking around the dark streets of Yaogu County one night.

Huayin was yawning, sleepy to death, the crazy old man liked to tease her during the day, and she had to prevent the strange old man from slipping away at night, after only ten days and nights, she was already so thin that she didn't look like a human being.

"Do you really want to study medicine?"

Huayin was overjoyed when he heard what he said, and hurried to him, raised her head with a smile, tried her best to show the cuteness that a young girl should have, nodded fiercely, but didn't dare to speak more, for fear of being picked on by the old man again scold.

The strange old man murmured: "Do you know that seeking medical advice is not as simple as you think, and the hardships involved are not something ordinary people can bear, and they may even accidentally contract a serious disease from a patient and die. Just like me, although I pretended to be a ghost, I couldn’t get rid of this strange poison on my body. Of course, if you just want to be an ordinary doctor, learn some ready-made skills, and don’t think about making progress, I advise you not to ask for help. If you come under my door, you should take care of yourself as soon as possible."

Although Huayin already knew it in his heart, when he heard the strange old man claiming to be a ghost, his heart still skipped a beat.Immediately knelt down on both knees, and said sincerely: "I want to worship the master, just to learn some extraordinary skills. In the future, I will obey the master's order, not afraid of life, and heal what others can't heal. Even Even if you contract a serious illness and die unexpectedly, you will never regret it."

"You sound nice, so how should I believe you?" The strange old man sneered.

Hua Yin raised her head, and looked at the strange old man with big eyes, "How does the master want the apprentice to prove it?"

The strange old man remained silent, raised his hand and pointed to the ruined wall not far away and said: "If I hear you right, there should be a dying person behind, you can carry her back so that she can be taken care of, if she can If she can't live, I'll take you as my apprentice. If she can't live, then our fate will be over."

Hua Yin opened her mouth and argued: "But the master said that she is already dying, how can I save her?"

"If you let it go, you will die after another night. If you take it home and take good care of it, then it's unknown. So whether she can live or not depends entirely on your heart." After saying this, the old man turned around and left.

"Hey! Master!" Hua Yin yelled anxiously, but he didn't continue to yell after seeing that the old man was walking in the direction of Huafu.Pausing on the spot for a moment, he turned his head and ran towards the broken low wall.

Under the full moon, I saw a person curled up in a pile of withered grass, but she was exuding a stench, forcing Hua Yin to take a step closer and back three steps in a row.

"Hi, are you still alive?" Hua Yin called out clearly.

no response.

"Hey! I'm talking to you, are you alive or dead? If you're dead, don't blame me for not caring about you, I'm leaving! I'm really leaving..." Huayin shouted again.

Finally, the man moved and moaned slightly, as if he was very dissatisfied with Hua Yin for waking him up.

Naturally, Huayin at this time never expected, because a temptation from her master, the old man, made her form a deep bond with this dying person, let alone that in the future, this person... Saved her life again.
