"The grass is green, the rivers are picturesque, what a beautiful mountain and river."
A voice suddenly sounded in a country road, causing frogs to chirp and birds to chirp softly.
"Pfft" A sweet laugh suddenly came from a cardamom girl who was only fourteen or fifteen years old.
"Master, this Xihe is just a small river at best.
How can it be compared to a river?
What you said is wrong."
The girl looked at the turbulent Xihe beside her and said with a smile.
It was like the tinkling of spring water. sweet.
In front of the girl, a young man wearing black brocade clothes was sitting on a wicker chair, with bearers in front and behind carrying him.
He looked very calm and relaxed.
And this person is Liu Muqing who came all the way from Meigu City.
Liu Muqing laughed but didn't care, and said: "Chunmei, you are about to return home in glory.
How about it?
Gao is not happy?"
"I'm so happy.
I also want to thank you for the reward, Master.
If it weren't for you, how could I have bought so many things?
Master, Chunmei thanks you."
This young girl is naturally Chunmei.
After getting the news that Liu Muqing was going to Zuojiazhuang, she was so excited that she couldn't sleep.
What surprised her even more was that the young master actually rewarded her with many things, making her feel like she was returning home in fine clothes.
Liu Muqing smiled again.
Those things were rare for ordinary people, but they were dispensable for him.
At this moment, he also deeply felt the feeling of the rich.
Thinking about the rich and office workers in his previous life, The difference in values suddenly became clear to him psychologically.
Zuojiazhuang is a beautiful village, close to the mountains, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the transportation is not very inconvenient.
Therefore, this place is called a place with outstanding people, and the people in the village are also considered wealthy.
Of course, the premise is that you are willing to Work hard and be willing to endure hardship.
However, the same rice feeds all kinds of people.
There are capable people in the village, but there are also lazy people who can't make ends meet.
Liu Touou's family is one of them.
In the past, Liu Touou's house must have been deserted in front of the house, and even the neighbors were unwilling to come to the door.
But today is different.
This deserted and deserted yard has become lively for the first time.
After asking, I found out that...
It was Liu Chunmei, the daughter of Liu Tou's family, who had returned from the city.
Liu Muqing stood in this dilapidated house, looking out of place with everything here, but he didn't care and kept looking around, just like a travel companion.
Behind Liu Muqing, there was a pair of honest-looking but flattering peasant men and women.
Both were in their forties or fifties, with shabby clothes and thin faces.
Their eyes looking at Liu Muqing were full of fear and envy. .
Chunmei stood behind Liu Muqing, her eyes falling on the middle-aged man and woman behind her from time to time.
Unknowingly, her eyes turned red.
Especially when she saw the younger brother who was already too thin, she felt even more sad.
Come from.
"Mom and dad, why are you still like this?

Do you really want to starve your little brother to death?"
Chunmei couldn't help but said, and she burst into tears for a while, which made people feel really distressed.
This middle-aged man and woman are naturally Chunmei's parents.
When they heard Chunmei's question, they couldn't help but feel a knot in their hearts.
Just as they were about to refute, they saw the young man in brocade clothes again, and couldn't help but feel a little scared.
Suddenly, the two of them faced each other.
After taking a look, he rolled his eyes and said, "Chunmei, it's not that my parents want this.
This really can't be blamed on us.
You don't know."
As for the subsequent reasons, Liu Muqing was not interested in hearing any more.
He lowered his head and looked at the boy who was as thin as a stick.
He looked like he was only five or six years old, but he was not as tall as a three or four-year-old child. , it can be seen that he was caused by severe malnutrition.
"Do you want to sell this kid?"
Liu Muqing suddenly squatted down and pointed at Chunmei's younger brother and asked, his eyes seeming to be sizing up a piece of goods.
When the middle-aged man and woman heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up, and they said hurriedly: "Buy, sell, sell.
This young man has really good eyesight.
I don't know how much money you can offer.
This is the last single seedling of our Liu family.
If the price I will never sell it if it’s too low.”
Perhaps because they wanted a good price, the middle-aged man and woman began to praise their children for being clever, clever, etc., but these became extremely disgusting in Liu Muqing's eyes.
Liu Muqing waved her hand and suddenly laughed, and asked: "How much are you going to charge?"
"Ten taels of silver, we will never sell it for less than ten taels of silver."
The two looked at each other and quickly came up with a price.
Liu Muqing waved his hand and said to the person behind him: "Let them sign and sign and give them ten taels of silver.
From now on, this little guy has nothing to do with your Liu family.
Chunmei will take good care of your brother and wait until he is healthy and strong."
Well, let him be my book boy."
Chunmei was already in tears at this moment.
She understood that the young master decided to buy her for her sake.
You must know that ten taels of silver can buy five beautiful maids in Meigu City.
Thinking of this, Chunmei couldn't help but make up her mind.
Even if the young master asked her to die in the future, she would do it without hesitation.
After leaving ten taels of silver for the lazy couple, Liu Muqing no longer had any interest in staying here.
He glanced at the couple coldly, turned around and left.
Not to mention leaving them ten taels of silver, even if you give them hundreds of taels, they will still starve to death in the end.
Walking in this not-so-big village, Chunmei led the way to the Earth Temple she was talking about.
Along the way, there were many simple farmer uncles saying hello to Liu Muqing, which made him feel happy.
Some.
Chunmei hugged her little brother along the way, her face full of happiness, as if she had forgotten the unhappiness just now, but the little boy in her arms was a little scared, even if she brought him a piece of shortbread, he would not Dare to eat blatantly.
"Master, after you leave here, you will go to the Earth Temple.
I used to go there to play when I was a child, and I am very familiar with it."
Chunmei smiled and said to Liu Muqing on the wicker chair.
"Sister, you are going to the Earth Temple."
The younger brother who had been silent until now suddenly spoke up.
Although his voice was very low, it was somehow hidden from Liu Muqing's ears.

Liu Muqing looked down at the little guy and said, "Yes, I heard that the Earth Temple in your village is haunted and has even seen ghosts, so I came here to have a look.
By the way, what's your name, little brat?
" "I don't have a name.
My parents call me Gou Sheng."
The younger brother was obviously very afraid of Liu Muqing.
When he heard his question, he immediately stammered and was speechless.
Liu Muqing couldn't help laughing and murmured: "It's easy to make a living with a bad name.
You can just call me Gou Sheng from now on."
Then he asked: "By the way Gou Sheng, you just mentioned the Earth Temple, what's the matter?"
Gou Sheng raised his head and glanced at Liu Muqing.
His smart eyes were as clear as crystal pearls.
He mustered up his courage and said, "There are ghosts there.
I've seen them where you can't go."
As soon as these words came out, it was like a dark wind blowing through everyone's hearts, making people feel a little gloomy in such a bright weather.
Chunmei hurriedly covered Gou Sheng's mouth and said angrily: "Gou Sheng, don't talk nonsense, how could you see a ghost?"
Then she hurriedly said to Liu Muqing: "Master, don't listen to me, he doesn't understand anything. , this must be nonsense from him."
Liu Muqing smiled and waved his hand and said, "It's okay to listen.
Chunmei, don't be afraid.
Since I said I would bring Gou Sheng into the Liu family, young master, I naturally keep my word."
Then he looked at Gou Sheng and said: "Gou Sheng, go on, don't be afraid.
You said you have seen that ghost.
What does he look like and when did you see him?"
Gou Sheng thought for a moment and said: "He looks similar to me.
He is a child, but his face is very pale.
One night I was so hungry that I wanted to go to the fields outside the village to get some food.
I walked to the entrance of the village.
I saw him, he seemed to be arguing with someone at that time, I didn’t dare to take a closer look and ran away.”
Liu Muqing looked at Gou Sheng and knew that he was not lying when he saw the serious look on his face.
Lying on the wicker chair, he couldn't help but secretly thought: "Could he be born with yin and yang eyes?
It's impossible, this is too ridiculous.
Don’t they only appear in movies and TV series?”
Gou Sheng's words did not affect Liu Muqing's schedule.
On the contrary, he became even more interested and was still thinking maliciously.
If there really is a ghost here as Gou Sheng said, then he might as well catch him home and study it carefully.
He had done a lot of preparations for this.
The Tutu Temple occupies a small area, and is only three small tile-roofed houses.
The temple has one of its own, and the other two are dedicated to statues of gods.
Above the main seat is a clay statue with a very ordinary face, a kind and friendly person.
The old grandfather, beside him, were several children with well-behaved family faces.
Such an appearance was naturally in line with the aesthetics of Zuojiazhuang people.
Liu Muqing was coming to the Tutu Temple.
The temple minister had been notified early, and he had put on a Taoist robe that he had found from nowhere.
He looked like a human and a dog, but he also secretly wondered why such a small mountain temple was there.
It will also attract young nobles who come to the city.
"Sir, please come in.

Although our earth temple is small, it is very effective.
People in these ten miles and eight villages know that many people have come to us to offer incense and make wishes, such as Liu Butcher's in Liujiazhuang.
Wife, I wanted to have a son, but as expected, I gave birth to a son.
Another example is " Listening to Miao Zhu's constant sales pitch, Liu Muqing couldn't help but smile crookedly and asked: "I never knew that the Earth God had so many responsibilities, even taking care of things like giving birth to children.
It seems that he should indeed Bye, if I can fulfill my wish, it doesn’t mean that I can’t rebuild his golden body.”
"It's effective, I don't know what the young master's wish is," Miao Zhu asked hurriedly.
Liu Muqing thought for a while and suddenly said with a smile: "My wish is that I want the sky to be unable to cover my eyes anymore, I want this land."
Liu Muqing casually said Brother Monkey's treasonous words, which shocked the temple Zhu and made everyone around him dumbfounded.
He couldn't help laughing and turned away, but he didn't notice that the moment he turned around to leave, the dull eyes of a clay sculpture boy next to the Earth God suddenly moved, as if he came to life
