When the Great Dao Dies, I Remain; When Spiritual Energy Withers, I Endure

Although there is blood welling up in my heart, I want to fight against the injustice.

But take practical factors into consideration.

The cow shriveled up instantly.

His brows were furrowed and his expression was tangled. In addition to sympathizing with the scholar, he himself was often oppressed by the bandits in Shangshui, Qulong River.

The resentment had been building up for a long time, and the indignation in his heart suddenly burst out.

Niu Xiao simply stopped rowing and just sat on the bamboo raft and started thinking.

Li Changxiao didn't rush him. What he didn't lack most was time.

The Panlong Sect was nearby, and if he was in a hurry, Yujian Flying would be there in an instant.

The meaning of immortality does not lie in this.

As for where it was, he didn't know, he just walked around and looked for it.

"Yes!"

Niu Xiao suddenly said, "I heard that a very powerful Jianghu guest came to my second uncle's house."

"I'll go back now and see if I can ask him to take action."

"We won't talk about annihilating the water bandits, but it is still very possible to get your wife back."

Niu Xiao thought he had come up with a good idea. He clapped his hands and his eyes lit up.

When the scholar heard this, he thought it was feasible, so he knelt down and burst into tears. He called Niu Xiao his benefactor. If he could save his wife, he would be willing to work as a cow or a horse.

It is often said in books that a man has gold at his knees.

The scholar has been admitted to the Juren Examination, and his scholarly character is very obvious, so this kneeling is particularly precious, worth more than a thousand pieces of gold.

Niu Xiao's face was solemn, and at this moment, he felt a sense of mission in his heart.

I am willing to do this for scholars.

In addition to sympathy, there is another more important factor, which is that the scholar is a kind and righteous person.

To be able to do this for a woman.

rare.

Niu Xiao turned to look at Li Changxiao.

After much hesitation, he took out one hundred and ten cents from the coarse cloth pocket and returned it with a look of reluctance.

"Brother, I'm sorry, I have to go back the way I came."

"Next time when I have time, I will give you a ride for free."

Niu Xiao apologized, pursed his lips, and looked at Li Changxiao with some anxiety.

Li Changxiao laughed and said it didn't matter, he had plenty of time, and it wouldn't be too late to give him a ride when he was free.

that's all.

The boat returned halfway.

Stop at the shore.

After Niu Xiao apologized again, he led the scholar, three steps at a time, two steps at a time, and rushed towards Niujia Village.

Li Changxiao looked at the two people's leaving figures, becoming a little more curious about the development of the situation.

…

Niujia Village.

A small village that is not too remote.

Niu Xiaoxian returned to his home, but before he got home, he shouted several times: "Niu Da, Niu Da, your son is back!"

He was born with a loud voice, and when he shouted, he could be heard from three streets away.

Niu Da was the old punting man who once carried Li Changxiao. He was so angry that he took off his straw sandals and threw them out of the door.

He cursed at the top of his lungs: "You son of a bitch, I worked so hard to raise you, and this is how you repay me?"

The old man was so angry that he pushed open the thatched door and pointed at his son and cursed.

Niu Xiao didn't just accept the scolding, he retaliated fiercely and said that he was indeed a son of a bitch.

The big one and the small one were arguing, rolling up their sleeves and about to start a fight.

Neighbors don't even come out to try to reconcile, they've become accustomed to it.

The scholar, on the other hand, frowned and said to Niu Xiao, "Brother Niu, this is your fault. As the ancients said, filial piety comes first..."

Just as he spoke, Niu Da Niu Xiao turned to look at the scholar at the same time.

Only then did he realize that there was an outsider today, and he immediately restrained himself a lot.

Niu Xiaohe and Shusheng explained that this is the way father and son get along.

When Niu Da saw that the other party was a scholar and seemed to be very knowledgeable, he also changed his attitude and enthusiastically invited the other party in.

Niu Xiao and Niu Da explained the situation.

With a loud snap, the cow suddenly stood up and cursed: "It's unreasonable that there are such villains in the world!"

"Don't worry, young man, I will definitely help you within my ability."

The scholar was moved, as expected, like a son, like a father, the old and the young are all enthusiastic people.

Immediately afterwards, Niu Xiaoxiao expressed his idea and wanted his father to come forward and invite the Jianghu guests in the second uncle's family.

Niu Da patted his chest and said that this matter would be taken care of by me.

Because he had been an immortal and had seen an immortal kill a giant python with his own eyes, he was quite famous in Niujia Village. Children in the village often came to him to listen to stories.

Therefore, Niu Da is still somewhat thin-faced.

The possibility of him stepping forward to request the second uncle is extremely high.

Niu Xiao's second uncle is the village chief and a scholar. He also owns several properties outside the village, and his son is very popular in the street.

Niu Da first went to the west corner of the village, asked Aunt Wang for two bags of fruit and a small bag of rice, and then rushed to the second uncle's house.

As soon as I walked in, my second uncle warmly welcomed me. He was surprised that the wind was blowing, and it actually brought the most beautiful Niu Da in our village.

Niu Da chatted with his second uncle for a while.

After completing the surface work such as polite words and etiquette, he finally talked about his purpose.

After hearing this, the second uncle smiled and said that he would help him ask the Jianghu guest in his house.

the next day.

The three of them went to the second uncle's house again.

This time, the second uncle still entertained me warmly, but he was a little pushy about going up the mountain to get his scholar wife back.

He said that the martial artist was busy with something and couldn't get away for the time being.

As soon as this statement came out.

The two Niu family members plus the scholar were immediately anxious.

This charming lady is always in the hands of water bandits.

Let alone a few days, even if it is just a moment or a second, the scholar cannot wait.

In fact, few of them knew that the scholar's wife was safe for the time being and was being taken care of by someone using dreams.

The old man gritted his teeth and took the two of them back.

After all, he is old and sees things much more clearly.

There is only one word for profit in the world.

If you can't get away from something, it's just because you don't have enough benefits.

He was heartbroken and thought about helping others to the end. He found some valuable items and asked his son to pawn them in the town.

Another day.

The three of them prepared valuable gifts, thinking that this time they would be able to persuade the wanderer to come out.

Unexpectedly this time.

The usually gentle second uncle's expression changed drastically when he saw the three of them. Before the three of them could react, he rushed up, snatched the gifts prepared by the three of them, and slammed them to the ground.

Niu Da and three others were shocked.

The second uncle told the three of them to get out immediately. He didn't even look at how much he weighed, and just wanted to learn to stand up for others.

The second uncle pointed at Niu Da and cursed loudly: "You are just a braggart, do you really think you are very powerful? You even carried gods, bah!"

Who would believe the things you said? Everyone just sees that you are old and will not argue with you, fearing that you will die without taking a sip. "

The cow was trembling with anger. The news here spread quickly in the village, and the villagers gathered around to watch and point.

How could Niu Xiao tolerate others talking about his father like this? He raised his fist, shouted and rushed towards his second uncle.

The second uncle was startled and took a few steps back.

At this time, a figure appeared behind him.

He lightly melted away Niu Xiao's straight fist, and then printed a palm on his chest.

Puff.

Niu Xiao flew out upside down.

"roll!"

The figure scolded him coldly.

Niu Xiao refused to accept it, but was helplessly injured. He struggled on the ground for several times and could not get up.

The scholar felt regretful and felt that he had harmed him. He carried the injured Niu Xiao on his back and ran away in despair.

Return to the house.

Niu Xiao was covered in cold sweat, developed a high fever, and was in great pain. It looked like he would not be able to hold on much longer.

The scholar opened the clothes on his chest and took a look.

A dark brown palm print was literally printed on his chest.

It's terrifying.

"Mr. Zhong, go and invite the doctor!" Niu Da shouted anxiously.

But when the doctor came to see him, he just shook his head and told them to prepare for the funeral. This young man had provoked a master.

Niu Da looked at his dying son.

Eerily peaceful.

From under the pillow, he took out a stick of dry tobacco that had been hidden for a long time.

He lit it with a flint, sat at the door minding his own business, and started smoking.

shrouded in mist

The night sky is clear.

Niu Da kept repeating the action of smoking, but he could no longer spit out the white air, and the dry cigarette had long been finished.

No one knows how painful it was for him to be separated in his later years.

Niu Da casually threw the dry tobacco that he had hidden as a treasure on the ground, walked into the kitchen, and sharpened his kitchen knife.

And the little cow in the room.

Consciousness has been blurred.

But he clenched his fists.

Not convinced.

Very dissatisfied with this world. He was so full of passion that he ended up like this.

that's all.

In a daze, he felt sleepy. He opened his eyes hard to prevent himself from falling asleep. He felt that once he fell asleep, he would never get up again.

But he couldn't resist the sleepiness after all.

He fell asleep quickly.

He had a dream.

Dreaming about a starry night.

On the banks of the Qulongjiang River.

There was a man in white, sitting on the shore drinking wine, waiting for him to be picked up.

As he dreamed, he felt warm and comfortable all over his body, almost forgetting that he was injured.

I don’t know how long I slept.

He suddenly woke up and found that the scholar and his father were also asleep, and there were bursts of snoring.

Niu Xiao put on her clothes and walked step by step towards the river bank that she was so familiar with.

Arrive at your destination.

Sure enough, I saw a man in white sitting on the shore drinking.

The man in white saw Niu Xiao.

He smiled slightly, very softly and calmly, and asked: "Can you give me a ride tonight?"
