Sure enough, Master Liu said again: "Xiaoyong, in the next few years, I'm afraid I won't be able to see you often, and this time I'll only be there for one day, and I'll be leaving tomorrow. ."

I don't know what to say right now. I am full of things I have prepared. I just hope that Master Liu can praise me, and then stay and teach me some skills. But in the end, Master Liu told me that he will not be able to watch it for a few years. Come on, I suddenly got a little temperamental.

I turned my head and walked out of the house. Master Liu asked me what I was going for, and I said two words: "Relax."

Zhao Jie and Shang Haoming also ran out, and Zhao Jie said to me: "Xiaoyong, why are you showing your face to Master Liu, he finally came here, and he only stayed for a day, how good Master Liu is to us? , and brought us so much delicious food."

I said, "I know that too."

Shang Haoming also followed suit: "Okay, Xiaoyong, let's go back, you made Master Liu angry, so why don't you come to see you in the future?"

When Shang Haoming said this, I was really scared. If Master Liu never came to me, I would not regret it.

So I turned my head and walked back. It had just rained and the road was very muddy. After a few steps, I jumped into the puddle and splashed water all over my body. At this time, Master Liu walked slowly and leisurely from my house. The direction came over, his hands behind his back, with a rare, peaceful smile on his face.

Looking at our three children, Master Liu said, "Haoming, Zhao Jie, you go back first, I have something to say to Xiaoyong, and I will go back and tell you a story later."

After waiting for Zhao Jie and Shang Haoming to leave, I said to Master Liu, "I'm sorry, foster father, I was wrong, I won't change my temper."

Seeing me admitting my mistake, Master Liu laughed twice and said, "What's wrong, you are playing with me, that means you take me as a relative, why don't you play with strangers, right? So I don't I'm angry, but happy in my heart, because no junior has ever played with me like this, including my nephews."

For a while, I didn't understand what Master Liu was going to say, so he continued: "It's been raining for a long time, and the air is fresh, Xiaoyong, you've grown up, you're an older child, it's time to learn to stand on your own. , but remember not to be brave when you encounter things, after all, you are still a child... "

Master Liu's words were inconsistent, so he could not write it himself, but looked up into the distance, and at this moment, a rainbow appeared under the sky in the distance, the arch was very large, and it looked very beautiful.

Master Liu said: "Xiaoyong, three years from now, there will definitely be a spectacle of three rainbows appearing together. At that time, I will come to you, remember to practice your skills well, this technique is similar to Hongquan. In the same way, the skills learned after the foundation is laid will be easy to use, and will be more powerful."

I nodded and asked Master Liu, "Foster father, what is the three rainbows coming together?"

Master Liu said: "It's very simple, it means literally, three rainbows appear in the sky at the same time, and the scene will definitely be spectacular. At that time, I will also live here for the first half of the year and teach you your skills, but the premise is that you must To pass my exam."

I hurriedly asked about the exam, and Master Liu said, "First of all, if you want to ask for magic, you must persist for more than half an hour, and secondly, to draw talismans, you have to draw thirty-six kinds of talismans, and at least one of them must be of the 'blue' rank. Fu, not to mention Hong Quan, it must be in my eyes."

Next, I chatted with Master Liu on a lot of unrelated things, including some interesting things I did in recent years. When I asked about Master Liu, his answer was only three words. : "I'm busy!"

However, Master Liu said that he would come to us to live here for half a year in three years. This is what I am looking forward to. I can't wait for three years.

This time, Master Liu really stayed for a day and left, but I started my efforts. Every day Hongquan has become a habit. If you ask for magic, you can practice together when you draw talismans. Generally speaking, I am still rather hard.

As for my grades, with the supervision of my father, it won't be too bad. I always rank among the top few in the class. Such grades also make my father and mother feel more at ease. "Cultivation of the Tao" and abandoning the "orthodox occupation".

In fact, at that time, in my mind, my righteous vocation had become "cultivating the Tao". Compared with the boring study, this matter was simply full of fun.

In a blink of an eye, it was 1998. This summer, I was promoted to the first year of junior high school, and I was a standard big kid, because I heard that some people in junior high school had already started dating, even my long-favored sister Zhao Yuan, I heard that there is still a chase, but she was rejected by her, which made me feel very happy.

This year, when we were in the first year of junior high school, Zhao Yuan was promoted to high school. Her grades were as good as ever. She was the third in the county in the examination, and became the one with the best grades in the history of our township. She went to the best county No. 1 middle school in the county. , and tuition fees are free plus a monthly living allowance.

So during this period, Zhao Yuan has become a celebrity in our village. Everyone thinks that Zhao Yuan is amazing, and Zhao Laohei also feels that his face is bright, so for this reason, he specially invited my father to drink a drink. .

Well, although my father only taught Zhao Yuan in elementary school, he can still be credited for it.

Therefore, in the summer of 1998, Zhao Jie and I felt proud and proud to be able to walk with Zhao Yuan. In my heart, I was also determined to marry Zhao Yuan as a daughter-in-law. There is no way, who will make Zhao Yuan as beautiful and excellent as ever. Well, hum, it's not a girl that Shi Yong likes!

As for Zhao Yuan herself, she didn't seem to like taking me and Zhao Jie together. She began to dislike us for being little kids, he's meow.

In the blink of an eye, the summer vacation passed, I was promoted to the first year of junior high school, and Zhao Yuan went to the county seat to attend high school.

There is only one junior high school in this township, not the same as the primary school. There are several. Therefore, students from other primary schools also come to our junior high school. Therefore, in the first year of junior high school, we have three classes here. There are more than one new faces I don't know.

This time, I, Zhao Jie, and Shang Haoming were each assigned to a different class, and Shang Haoming was assigned to the same class.

At first, we were not used to playing with strangers around us, so after class, the four of us got together to chat and talk about the new classmates in our respective classes.

I expressed my envy that the trousers monk Shang Haoming could be assigned to the same class, and there was a person to speak, but the trousers monk Shang Haoming expressed envy at the same time, I asked why, and they said, because You Xiaoqing and I were assigned to the same class , Although the number of people in the first grade is more than three times that of us in the sixth grade, but You Xiaoqing's appearance is able to come out on top.

Well, with that being said, they should indeed envy me.

And You Xiaoqing is also used to chatting with a few of us. Now that I am assigned to a class, she naturally finds the nearest chat first, so most of the get out of class, she will come to me to talk, sometimes chatting about irrelevant gossip, sometimes saying Some class exercises and homework.

It has to be said that my relationship with You Xiaoqing has grown a little closer this year. In the winter of 1998, I don’t know how it was passed on. The school said that You Xiaoqing and I were in a precocious relationship. He asked us to talk specifically, if it wasn't for the good results of our two, I'm afraid I'd be criticized directly at the meeting.

Later, the instruction given by the head teacher was that we should keep our distance, well, go to his puppy love!

This incident naturally reached my father and mother, but this time they did not beat me or scold me, but chose to believe that I was innocent.

After talking with the teacher, You Xiaoqing and I deliberately distanced ourselves for a while, but we still maintained our academic contact. I don’t know why. You Xiaoqing is used to discussing issues with me. I also asked her about What, she said, because she can't, I can, and she can understand what others say, she can't understand what other people say.

For this reason, Shang Haoming and trousers hated to death, because they both liked You Xiaoqing in their hearts, especially after they entered junior high school, they heard that they could fall in love early in junior high school, so they could not wait to fall in love soon. a handful.

As for Zhao Jie, this junior high school has been in Ontario for the past six months, and his studies have also progressed by leaps and bounds, and he entered the top ten of the whole grade. This surprised me, Shang Haoming and the three of them. We asked him about his grades. Why is it so fast, he said, he didn't have to play anymore after class, he just did the exercises in the class, and he went up after doing the grades...

Later, I also learned that this kid Zhao Jie still has a hand, that is, he has notes of his sister Zhao Yuan's homework from the first to the third grade. The one recorded above is called a detail. It works just like learning from textbooks.

At the same time, in the junior high school, there are also many students living on campus, so we started to study in the morning and evening. In summer, it was fine. In winter, we had to endure the cold wind when we got up early to go to school every day. I had frost on my eyebrows, and the weather was so cold.

At night, the air is drier, but it's also very cold, and sometimes it snows, and it's not uncommon to accidentally break a foot or a half along the road.

And in the winter of 1998, a strange homeless man came to our village. He was wearing a military coat, his hair was longer than some girls, and he was wearing black cotton shoes. leaked out.

This homeless man often roamed on our way to school, so when we were studying in the morning and evening, we could bump into him, especially when I saw the pair of cotton shoes with exposed thumbs, I felt cold for him.

We sometimes feel sorry for him, so we will bring him some food when we go out. If we meet him on the road, we will give it to him. Over time, he will wait for us on our way to and from school, and every time we give him something to eat He would be very happy when we sang, and then sang with us. Although we couldn't understand what he was singing, and the singing was not good, it was his intention after all.

So we always thought he was a mentally ill person, just like the lunatic we met in Guiwan.

But it was this homeless man who brought a series of horrifying experiences to us passing students in the following days.
